FULL TITLE: 'We're just like everyone else': Transgender girl, 11, writes speech in response to Obama's historic inaugural address because she wishes he'd spoken about her community too
When Obama addressed the nation in his inaugural speech on Monday, he became the first president in history to speak about gay rights during the momentous swearing-in ceremony.
But while many in the LGBT community lauded his support, one 11-year-old transgender girl was left disappointed that he failed to address her community too.
Sadie Croft, who transitioned to a female when she was in kindergarten, has now written an eloquent essay in light of the speech, explaining how transgender people also need the nation's support.
Her mother said that although Sadie was proud of Obama for speaking about gay rights, she had still wanted to pen her own version of the speech, which she entitled: 'Sadie's Dream for the World'.
'Transgender people are not allowed the freedom to do things everyone else does, like go to the doctor, go to school, get a job, and even make friends,' the speech states.

No such thing as transgendered, it's a made up mental disfunction is all.
This is the result of child abuse in a lot of cases I bet.
In this case Mommy wanted a girl but got a boy. So she screwed with the little boy's mind. Now she has a mentally ill boy who thinks he's a girl.
That woman ought to be horse whipped.
No, you are a confused pre-teen with dysfunctional parents. Parents who want to either gather attention or wanted a girl. Or parents who are themselves homosexual with a union totally for the convenience of having a child ... a child that would be subject to their desires as to gender.
Why is it that with any other delusional disorder the standard protocol is to not indulge the delusional behavior or thoughts, but with gender identiy the approved treatment is the exact opposite.
Remember when someone with a brain could tell this child "No, you aren't. You have a mental problem that your parents are contributing to/causing?" Or when the parents would be jailed for child abuse? But not today. Today, when everyone gets a trophy for being 'special' and told their 'special' for every outburst, bad behavior and mental problem, everyone and all they do is 'special'.
Ah, to live in a rational world again.
A 5 year old "transgender" is a tragic illness, and no one has the courage to say it?
No, no your are not just like everyone else. Not everyone is mentally confused as to what they are. Most human beings do not even need to look into a mirror to know what they are. I am sorry you have this problem, but a problem it is and one you need to get taken care off.
Most assuredly, but still Proverbs 17:10 comes to mind. If not hundreds, will thousands work?
I agree.
I'm not a fan of CPS but they should have taken this kid when he was a kindergartner and placed him in a loving foster home.
At the same time they should have arrested the parents and whatever psychologist 'diagnosed' this gender identity problem.
This poor kid is going to, at the least, need some REAL psychiatric care, not some whack job with an agenda that wants to make things like this appear normal.
This is so wrong, it's a serious crime and they're acting like it's normal???
When I was a kid I wanted to be a firetruck, spaceman, you name it. Kids can't make these decisions, they can't enter into contracts and the people whose only job is to protect and raise their kids are whackos who want to show how tolerant they are by allowing this; I feel terrible for this child.
Years ago, male twins were born and during the Bris the Mohel accidentally chopped off a part of one of the male's penis. The Doctors thought the only solution was to raise the child as a girl and they gave him hormones and dressed him like a girl and eventually did the surgery. Eventually he found out the truth. He committed suicide. The poor kid had no one to look out for his best interests like this child.
I hope this child believes in God because he's the only one he can trust and get the truth from.
The only thing I can think to do is pray for him.
I'm practically in shock over this. If I told my father that, he would have dressed me up as a girl and dropped me off at school or said I could dress like a girl if I bought the clothes with my own money. He would have made his point. One thing he wouldn't have done is shop for a psychologist who thought this kid had a gender identity problem. If the idiot parents had waited a month and also didn't indulge his delusions by (I'm guessing here) allowing him to live as a little girl in kindergarten, he would have got over it and wanted to be something else. Sodom and Gomorrah have better morals than our current society.
This child needs our prayers badly. Grrrrr...
This horribly abused child's parents should be hung.
No. You're not. You're really not.
Fill your body with all sorts of chemicals. Fill your head with Leftist propaganda about gender. Knock yourself out.
You're never going to get rid of that Y chromosome.
Your parents are monsters.
Is this person insane?
They're not allowed to go to the doctor, to school, get a job and make friends?
What utter horse shit.
In fact, let's go on Barbara Walters I'm sure she'll reassure you that you're brave for coming out as Spiderman at such a young age.
Heck I'm sure that major news outlets would stop the presses to interview "Spiderman" and his letter to the President.
0bama is such a divider. He forgot to mention people who boink farm animals too.
He didn't mention my community either! I am a butch lesbian trapped in a man's body denying me the opportunity to transgender myself to the masculine being that I already am there (before my "view finished evolving" I just considered myself a straight male...but now I see the light—straight males are not considered cool, especially if they want to be manly...but a butch lesbian is quite in, and allowed to be manly—so that's what I am—except I am even more exotic and should be celebrated even more because I am a male lesbian—shunned by the male-o-phobic majority of lesbians).
Sorry, thing, no you're not.
What does that mean, they can't go to the doctor? I'll give the kid a pass on the going to school and making friends thing because of his age. I'm sure he's allowed to do both, but he's just pointed at all the time. But the kid's whole mindframe is one of victim. There's so much wrong with his parents, I don't know where to start.
Sadie, shut up and go play like any other 11 year old.
Color me skeptical.
I doubt that it is legal in any US state to do the hormone treatments on a 5-year old, and I'm pretty nearly certain it's illegal to do the chop job. Which if true would mean the pictures are of a confused long-haired boy in a dress.
I am also skeptical the letter was written by the boy, at least without considerable help.
If she's just like everyone else then why does she merit a presidential mention? Why don't you or I get a name check too?
These mentally ill individuals and their enablers are already living the biggest double standard of all, so it's no surprise they don't recognize other obvious double standards.
maybe Sadie-he was referring to not being able to go to a gynecologist?
And surely you know the law prohibits cross dressing homosexuals from attending public school, being hired for jobs, or associating with other people
Which doctor can't he go to? An OBGYN? That doctor will not give a boy a PAP Smear.
It's a poor mutilated, hormone-bombarded little boy. These mouthpiece media drones need to stop calling them "she's."
It's an 11-yr-old child saying it,not an adult.
Although clearly an adult is telling him this malarkey.
If you look through the comments I've posted on other stories, you'll see that I'm trying to raise awareness of a problem where medicines containing artificial hormones given during pregnancy are causing devwelopmental abnormalities in the unborn child. One of the things these drugs can do is interfere with the normal process of sexual development, and produce a baby with intersexed genitals or whose brain is either intersexed or completely opposite-sexed to that person's genetic and biological sex. I've confirmed this is a real problem by studying one particular group of affected people, the DES sons. I think the problem goes well beyond just DES though, and I'm pretty sure that these drugs can produce many other abnormalities apart from intersex conditions too - particularly of the brain. The brain is undergoing a very active phase of development throughout the second half of the pregnancy, and that long time period makes it particularly vulnerable to having its normal development disrupted.
Artificial steroid hormones (and steroid hormone mimics such as DES) are probably the most widely used and most profitable single class of medicines there is. Unfortunately, they have a dark side, and for decades they've been producing all kinds of horrors among newborn babies, from missing limbs and life-changing defects to major organs, to brain abnormalities and mental illnesses, to those who are part-boy and part-girl. Although several million people at least hve been affected over the years, the pharmaceutical industry have so far done a very good job of keeping it quiet. I think they've treated it as a series of separate disasters, without realising that the problem is with artificial steroid hormones and their derivatives as a whole.
In adults, the steroid hormone system controls the day to day running of just about everything the body does, but in the unborn child it does more than that: it plays a major role in controlling development too. When medicines containing artificial hormones are given to a woman during pregnancy, the drug crosses the placenta and disrupts the normal functioning of the steroid hormone system. The result is misdirected development, leading to abnormalities of whatever part of the body or brain happened to be undergoing development at that time. Once parts of the body have been built wrong, they stay like that for the remainder of that person's life.
I think artificial hormones in pregnancy are the real explanation for the surge in mental illnesses of all kinds in recent years, the skyrocketing rates of male infertility, and of course why we're suddenly seeing people popping up all over the place announcing that they're a woman in a man's body. You people are right to be disturbed about these things, but instead of directing your hostility towards the unfortunate victims, how about helping me do something to stop this horror from continuing any longer?
Thank you
Hugh Easton

Iceland's Haarde Calls Charges 'Absurd,' Blames Banks
Iceland's former Prime Minister Geir H. Haarde, the first government leader to be indicted for economic mismanagement during the financial crisis, said he is the victim of political revenge and blamed the island's banks for the collapse.
Haarde called the charges "absurd" and predicted he will be "vindicated at the end of the day," in an interview with Bloomberg Television's Mark Crumpton yesterday. "The crisis was not due to political decisions. It was partly the banks' own doing." While "political mistakes were made," the charges are a case of "political opponents settling scores."
The 2008 banking failure forced the island, the world's fifth-richest per capita a year earlier, to turn to the International Monetary Fund for help and sent the krona plunging as much as 80 percent against the euro in the offshore market. Lawmakers had been debating the issue of whether to move against individual political leaders since a parliamentary committee on Sept. 11 recommended the four be charged for "negligence."
Parliament voted 33 to 30 to charge Haarde in Reykjavik on Sept. 28. Lawmakers decided not to charge former Finance Minister Arni M. Mathiesen, former Business Minister Bjorgvin G. Sigurdsson and former Foreign Minister Ingibjorg Solrun Gisladottir. The indictment is the first time a special court set up in 1905 to hear such cases will be convened.
"In my view it is absurd to bring criminal charges against people like me who were in politics and who really at that time were trying to do their best to escape damage," Haarde said.
Haarde, 59, who was prime minister from 2006 until the beginning of 2009, must be held responsible for "violations committed from February 2008 through the beginning of October of the same year, by intent or gross neglect, mostly violations against the laws of ministerial responsibility" as well as breaches of the penal code, the committee of nine lawmakers said. The same charges were brought against the other three.
Haarde said "everyone was aware" the island's banks grew too big and neither the government nor the central bank foresaw the economic collapse. Still, he said, "hindsight shows many things could have been done differently" though bringing charges against him will set a "terrible precedent."
The government of Prime Minister Johanna Sigurdardottir, in office since January last year, is struggling to rebuild the crippled economy as Icelanders come to terms with spiralling debt burdens and real incomes reduced by 20.3 percent last year.
The committee was appointed after a separate commission investigating the causes of the 2008 crisis in April found that the government, central bank and financial regulator had all failed to address some of the factors that exacerbated the collapse.
The commission had suggested previous central bank governor David Oddsson as well as former head of the Financial Supervisory Authority Jonas Fr. Jonsson acted negligently in the years leading up to the meltdown, according to the April report.
Jonsson and Oddsson, who now runs the country's second-biggest newspaper Morgunbladid, escaped legal action when the state prosecutor said in June the Special Investigation Commission's findings didn't warrant a criminal probe.
Oddsson was head of government from 1991 until 2004, making him Iceland's longest-serving Prime Minister and the principal architect of the privatization of the island's banks. Haarde served as Finance Minister from 1998 until 2005.
The commission alleged that Haarde, Sigurdsson and Mathiesen didn't exert enough pressure on the banks to shrink their balance sheets after they amassed debts equivalent to 10 times Iceland's economic output, a development the commission said was key in fuelling the financial collapse.
$86 Billion
Kaupthing Bank hf, Landsbanki Islands hf and Glitnir Bank hf all collapsed within weeks of each other in October 2008 after they were unable to secure enough short-term funds to continue their operations. The state was forced to step in and take control of the domestic assets to create new local units. The banks' failures left creditors trying to recoup a total of $86 billion.
The committee had also recommended the former ministers be charged for failing to ensure that Landsbanki created a U.K. subsidiary when selling its Icesave accounts there -- a measure that would have forced the British government to cover depositor claims, it said.
Iceland's government has yet to settle a dispute with the U.K. and Dutch over how to settle $5.1 billion in depositor funds stemming from the failure of Landsbanki.

Over Rs 78,000 cr spent in 3 years for weapon system import
New Delhi: India has spent over Rs 78,000 crore in the last three years for importing weapon systems and military hardware from countries including the US, Russia, Germany, Israel and the United Kingdom, the government on Monday said.
"The expenditure made on import of weapons, equipments during the last three years and the current financial year includes Rs 13,411.91 crore in 2009-10, Rs 15,44.01 crore in 2010-11, Rs 24,193 crore in 2011-12 and Rs 251,26 crore in 2012-13," Defence minister AK Antony told Lok Sabha in reply to a written query.
In the last few years, India has procured several new systems such as P-8I maritime surveillance aircraft, ten new C-17 heavy lift transport aircraft and C-130J Super Hercules aircraft.
Answering another query, Antony said CBI has informed that its probe in Tatra truck deal was related to the point that these "trucks were not purchased from the original manufacturer during the period 1997 onwards and BEML failed to achieve 100 per cent indigenisation in the last 24 years as first agreement was signed with M/s Omnipal in 1986 and all documents for indigenisation were received by BEML".
"BEML converted the payment currency from USD to Euros on the request of Tatra Sipox UK limited, the supplier firm and this action resulted in loss of Rs 4 crores to BEML," Antony said.
He said Letter Rogatories (LRs) are being sent to various countries and the investigation will be finalised on receipt of replies from the countries concerned.

Just some tidbits I p/u from Buster Olney's chat. Some Reds related some not so much, but it all intertwines doesn't it? It should give us all a good indication of whether or not a team is dealing and who they want/will give up or not.
(Posted before the Linebrink deal, Sources are good!)
Chris (madison): Hey Buster, Doug Melvin recently shot down the trade rumors surrounding Dunn to Milwaukee (thank god, that would be an unneeded addition). Are you hearing anything else out of Brewers camp concerning trades? What are they targeting, since there isn't a glaring hole anywhere on the roster?
Buster Olney: Chris: Talked to Doug the other day, and they are looking for relief help; they've had to work their bullpen a lot in the first half, and they're looking for some kind of experienced reliever to help... That's more important than a hitter.
TEX PART IIDan (Boston): Hey Buster, I heard the Sox are showcasing Lester tonight and maybe looking to trade him for Tex. Any truth?
Buster Olney: Dan: No, don't think so. I think they're just trying to upgrade the rotation -- although am hearing today that the asking price for Teixeira is dropping; the perception of a couple of rival executives is that the Rangers are intent on making the best deal and moving on (think Padres, Sheffield, 1993...)
TEX PART IIIMatt, Philly: If what you're saying is true about Texeira, wouldn't the Yankees stand a pretty good chance in swinging that deal? Assuming they're interested (they must be). I mean, they've got a lot of secon-tier prospects having great years surrounded by hype (Alan Horne, Jeff Marquez, Chase Wright). You think you could just throw a lot of B-level pitching at the Rangers and it'll stick?
Buster Olney: Matt: -- Yankees have been told they must include either Hughes or Chamberlain in any Teixeira deal, and that won't happen.
Dan (NY): So basically Buster, if what you say is true...it will cost the Yankees a top prospect for Tex, but for other teams, it will come down to the best offer on the table?
Buster Olney: Dan: I wish I could give you a better answer about how the price for Teixeira is going down, but that's what some execs are saying; the last word I got on the Yankees/Rangers talks, however, was that Texas was saying that either Chamberlain or Hughes would have to be involved. That could change, of course... GMs are talking a ton these days. Remember how last year, the Phillies kept saying, no, no, no on Abreu to the Yankees, and then at the last second, they capitulated, in order to dump him. That's the most important development in the Teixeira thing, at this point -- the perception is that the Rangers seem intent on cutting and running, making their best deal possible and moving on. He makes sense for Atlanta, in particular.
(Says alot about the Twins)
(NO Kyle Lohse in the ATL?)Greg (MN): Who is on the Twins' radar? Please say a 3B or DH-type.
Buster Olney: Greg: You've probably seen this -- they've activated Rondell White.
(Busy Guy, but why are GM's calling him?)Shar (Durham): Buster, as always, great work lately. What is the Braves' biggest priority: SP, RP, or 1B? Until last night I thought it was a starter, but I think Reyes/Carlyle is a workable 4/5, and the bullpen (Wickman and Soriano mostly) has been scarily hittable. Or should they go hard after Teixiera/Dmitri Young?
Buster Olney: Shar: Offense. There is a sense that the Braves aren't enamored with the high prices for mediocre pitching, and are looking to upgrade their offense. That said, my colleague Peter Gammons had a note yesterday that Chicago and the Braves talked about Renteria/Garland...
(Why deal for anyone if Rodney and Zumaya are on the way?)Buster Olney: I'll be right with you guys... GM call...
(Oooh, this as always will get the natives restless)Adam (Detroit): Buster, can I get a response? Do you see the Tigers picking up a middle reliever such as Eric Gagne or Joe Nathan?
Buster Olney: Adam: They're talking about it, but I don't know if they'll necessarily pull the trigger, because they are optimistic about getting Rodney back in a couple of weeks, and Zumaya back on Sept. 1. My guess is that yes, they'll get one of the many relievers available on the market...
(Is this good or bad, I vote good?!)Clint (Cincinnati, OH): Buster, Can you talk at legth about Adam Dunn's future in Cincinnati? Is there anyway that he could end up staying long term and being a cornerstone of that franchise? This is what I am hoping will happen and hopefully why he hasn't been dealt yet.
Buster Olney: Clint: Here's the problem for the Reds -- Dunn is perceived as a star in Cincinnati, and execs with other teams view him as a dangerous but flawed hitter, and a subpar defensive player. So while the Reds want good return for Dunn, other teams are privately saying that he's not worth a trade package. Tough situation...
Kyle (Philly): Is Arroyo on the market? Where might he be going? I hear he loves cheesesteaks. We all know Livan loves cheesesteaks but I dont think his long balls and Citizens Park would mix well.
Buster Olney: Kyle: Teams have asked about Arroyo, and find the prices to be really high...
(Are they really counting on Wood to solidify anything?)
Kenton (Indianapolis): Buster, are the Cubs looking to make any moves before the deadline? What position do they need to improve the most?
Buster Olney: Kenton: Bullpen help, but I wonder if their enthusiasm for making a deal will be tempered if Kerry Wood continues to show progress... No need to overpay if you really think help is on the way.
(Ok no more Kemp or Billingsley talk, But Eithier and Kershaw are still on the table.)
Jeff (indianpolis, IN): Please tell me Colletti dosen't trade away some of these great Dodger prospects for a rent-a-wreck middle reliever/Starter?
Buster Olney: Jeff: The Dodgers have a core of prospects that they don't want to touch. Anybody outside the core, they'll talk about... But I don't think they'll trade Loney or Kemp or Billingsley or LaRoche...
(Oh please this isn't even close, HEY BOSS!!)
Joe (MI): Who's the best prospect? Jay Bruce, Cameron Maybin, or Hunter Pence?
Buster Olney: Joe: I haven't seen Maybin or Bruce in person but hear nothing but good things about them, but on the other hand ... There's not much to not like about Pence, who is a great combo of talent and great makeup. I do wonder what a top hitting prospect would do in Cincinnati's ballpark; that could get ridiculous. Imagine a Miguel Cabrera in Cincinnati?
(And so the world continues to turn)
(End of debate about Duncan!)Jesse (NJ): Buster: Show some M's love. Are the mariners going to make a deal by the deadline and will it make them competitive for the wild card
Buster Olney: Jesse: They're poking around on starting pitching, just in case, but Jeff Weaver has been good of late, so they're not as motivated as they might have been. I think Weaver has allowed 1 earnie or less in five of his last six starts...
Eric (Flint, MI): Does Shelly Duncan have enough upside and fielding ability that you could see the Yankees staying away from a guy like Hunter and use a rotation of Matsui, Melky, and decent free agent like Byrnes, and Duncan as a fourth for the 2008 season?
Buster Olney: Eric: I have not seen him play on a regular basis, but those who have say he's a DH. Pure and simple.
(Why bother dealing when you are in the catbird seat?)
Phil (Portland, ME): hey buster whats up with now answering Mike's sox question? Theo always gets sox fans thinking he will make a big splash before the deadline, every year we have needs and he backs off in the end, what percent chance would you give him of coming through? and for who?
Buster Olney: Phil: I do think the Sox will do some tinkering, adding someone like a Reggie Sanders or Bobby Kielty, moving Wily Mo Pena, but there really isn't a lot of pressure on them to make a big deal. They've got Lester coming back tonight, Schilling in a couple of weeks, they've got a good solid lead in the division, 15 games left against Tampa Bay... I bet they add a reliever, but I can't imagine them making some big Nomar-like blockbuster this year. We'll see...

Design four separate programs in C using prototype functions which will compute the equivalent resistance to an arbitrary number of resistors connected in series if the user types a value of 0 on the keyboard for a runmode operator, and the equivalent resistance to an arbitrary number of resistors connected in parallel if the user types a value 1 for the runmode operator. Your programs must meet the following requirements:
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
i) The selection as to whether the resistors are connected in series or in parallel is to be implemented using the SWITCH command.
ii) The implementation of the phrase �arbitrary number of resistors� is to be made using a WHILE loop where specifying a new resistor value requires going once through the loop, and termination of the looping after the last resistor value is chosen is effected by inputting the value of zero for the next resistor value.
iii) Two prototype functions are to be used, one for computing the equivalent resistance to resistors connected in series, and the other for computing the equivalent resistance to resistors connected in parallel.
iv) The four separate programs correspond to the placement of both prototype functions either before the main function or after the main function, with outputting to the console of the computed value of equivalent resistance implemented from within the prototype functions or from within the main function.
NOTE: i) The present homework constitutes a modification of Homework 5.
ii) In your design, you are not allowed to declare the number of resistors to be connected in series or in parallel before you start the looping.

Best Price, Great Product, Will Buy More!!!
This has been my first purchase with Buy.com and I have to say, the first purchase can be a little nerve racking with worries about the duration of the delivery, the condition of the product, and the operational functionality after the first boot up. Well all-in-all I am now an avid Buy.com purchaser. Ok, so, I had been searching all the computer sites, TigerDirect, Newegg, etc, and had found this exact computer on all but with an inflated price. Buy.com by far, after 3 months of searching, has the best price. My all time favorite part of this transaction was the shipping. Even with the regular shipping I received my order in less then a week and even on a Saturday! (Thank You FedEx). So my final word is, this is a great computer for business needs, right here is the best price in town to get it, I couldn't have been any happier with the shipping, and I will certainly buy more!

However, these native fish could be considered the canary in the coal mine in regard to the effects of climate change. Warming waters, changes in spring runoff, and mid-winter rainfall are among the issues affecting the habitat for these fish. Watch out - rivers will be high this weekend By Sally Mauk • May 10, 2013 Sally Mauk Our warm temperatures are forecast to last through the weekend, and that means rivers and streams will continue to quickly rise. LeeAnn Allegretto of the National Weather Service says the biggest flooding threat currently is in Lincoln and Flathead counties. "Right now the only river that may reach flood stage is the Yaak river near Troy," said Allegretto."But the Flathead river and all its branches will also see dramatic rises." A warm weekend makes it tempting to want to get out onto the rivers, but Allegretto recommends resisting the temptation.

VIERA, Fla. (AP) - A Florida man whose conviction for a 1981
murder was called into question by DNA evidence will not face a new
State Attorney Norman Wolfinger said Wednesday that murder
charges against William Dillon have been dropped.
The state says a retrial would mostly involve a reading of previous testimony. Nine witnesses from Dillon's 1981 trial have died and another cannot testify because of medical problems.
Wolfinger says prosecutors concluded that a jury today would not
find the 49-year-old guilty "beyond and to the exclusion of every
reasonable doubt."
Dillon spent 27 years in prison for the bludgeoning death of James Dvorak before being released last month to await a new trial.
New tests showed Dillon's DNA was not on the bloodstained T-shirt presented as key evidence during his trial.

Dow Sinks 140 Points, Worst Fall in Month
Stocks recorded their biggest decline in more than a month, after a warning on the U.S.'s credit rating highlighted worries about the nation's debt load.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 140.24 points, or 1.1%, to 12201.59, its biggest point and percentage drop since mid-March and lowest close this month. Comex gold soared to a record, settling at $1,492.30 a troy ounce, and oil prices fell.
Standard & Poor's cut its outlook on U.S. government debt to "negative" from "stable," citing a material risk that policy makers might not reach agreement on budgetary restrictions by 2013, rendering the nation's profile "meaningfully weaker" than other triple-A-rated countries.
While the credit rating is specific to debt securities, a downgrade would have an impact on stocks, too, and the warning on Monday was a reminder for investors about the risks of such a high level of indebtedness. A ratings cut could weigh on the economy, force many investors to dump Treasurys and potentially send the country's borrowing costs rising.
Stocks fared worse than bonds. The price of 10-year Treasury notes rose, pushing down the yield to 3.373%, as bond yields move inversely to prices.
"The biggest fear we have is that politicians don't take the prudent steps they need to get the deficit under control," said Channing Smith, portfolio manager at Capital Advisors Growth Fund. He called S&P's move overdue and said his fund views the deficit as a three-to-five-year problem that "could become a problem much sooner."
Conversely, some investors argued that S&P's move may help bring the two sides in Washington together.
"This may be the push that the Congress needs to get serious," said Jamie Cox, managing partner at Harris Financial Group.
Gold has been a beneficiary of worries about the rising U.S. debt load and concern about the value of the U.S. dollar.
"There's currency volatility and overall uncertainty about paper currencies and it's good for gold," said Frank Lesh, broker and futures analyst with FuturePath Trading. Silver also continued its surge, rising 0.9% on Monday. The metal is up 39% this year.
The ratings action by S&P came at about 9 a.m. in New York, before the stock market opened. Until then, markets globally had been dominated by worries about European sovereign debt.
The euro dropped 1.3% against the dollar to $1.4233, its biggest percentage decline in nearly five months as Spain paid a high price to sell Treasury bills. Meanwhile, investors dismissed reassurances by European officials that Greece won't have to restructure its debt, driving Athens's two-year-note yield toward 20%.
A strong showing in Sunday elections by Finland's True Finns party, which has opposed bailouts by the European Union, threatened to complicate negotiations over a rescue package for Portugal, which recently became the third euro-zone country to request a bailout, joining Greece and Ireland.
Finland must approve any bailout loan, but analysts said the True Finns probably would be unable to derail any EU rescue of Portugal, even if they gain a spot in a coalition government. However, they could make it tougher for the EU to get unanimous support on treaty changes this year.
Though the euro fell Monday, it remains in a historically high range between $1.43 and $1.45, a far cry from last year when Greece's near default pulled the euro below $1.20.
The yield on Spanish 10-year bonds rose to 5.54% Monday, pushing the spread over equivalent German bonds to 2.30 percentage points. Madrid sold €4.66 billion ($6.72 billion) in 12-month and 18-month bills, but paid a higher yield than in prior auctions and saw much less demand.
S&P's ratings move overshadowed earnings news in the U.S.
Among Dow stocks, Bank of America BAC -1.29 % and Caterpillar CAT -0.19 % each fell 3.1%. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index dropped 14.54 points, or 1.1%, to 1305.14, with energy and financial stocks taking the hardest hit. The Nasdaq Composite index fell 29.27 points, or 1.1%, to 2735.38.
Citigroup C -0.61 % finished flat at $4.42 after the bank posted better-than-expected first-quarter earnings and showed signs of improving credit quality, though revenue fell shy of forecasts.
Halliburton LLY -0.05 % gained 32 cents, or 0.7%, to 47.14, after the oil-field-services company's first-quarter profit more than doubled. Chief Executive David Lesar said there was "clearly room for revenue and operating incomes to grow" in 2011.
Community Health Systems fell 1.40, or 4.4%, to 30.50, as the company converted its roughly $3.3 billion bid for Tenet Healthcare THC 0.33 % to an all-cash offer, the latest salvo in the hospital operator's hostile pursuit of its smaller rival. Tenet's stock shed 17 cents, or 2.6%, to 6.49.

Thread: dash update ?
26th March 12 #1
dash update ?
i was checking tutorials of RGH and i found the quoted stuff, but in all the tutorials i had seen before never saw it, is it really important, does it really affect ?
do i need to flash back to stock firmware before doing RGH ?
updating after dumping the nand cause problems ?
my dashboard is 2.0.13146.0
1. Update the console to dash version 14699
It's recommended to update the console to dash version 14699. If the 360 DVD drive has iXtreme firmware, flash it to stock firmware first to prevent any update problems. Use the correct (pre or post 13146) stock firmware for the dash version on the console. Connect a FAT32 formatted USB drive to the 360 with the latest dash copied to it. The update runs automatically if the console is already running or when it's powered on.
If the dash is updated after dumping the Nand, the CPU LDV values won't match the Nand dumps. (Trust me, this isn't something pleasant to deal with and no, I wasn't foolish enough to do it.)

Re: dash update ?
it means that after you read the nand do not update the console or the ldv values will not match.
It makes no difference which firmware you have on your dvd drive.
You only need to flash your drive back to stock if you are installing an official MS system update
You will not need to update after reading the nand, if you use the latest j-runner then your xbox will be on the latest dash after you RGH it.

Re: dash update ?
OP - where did you get that quote from? There's no source.
If you have a slim and your dashboard is pre-12625, I would advise NOT updating it. If you have a 9504 drive then it'll still be unlocked at this stage and the moment you update the console you'll invoke the SPI lock. Much better to just RGH it as-is.
In closing, you should NOT have to update ANYTHING prior to RGH.

and as u suggested i will just let it as it is

Nancy Mitchnick, 13757 Buffalo Street, 2015, Oil on canvas, 99 x 88 in. Courtesy of the artist.
Born in Detroit in 1947, Nancy Mitchnick began to paint in earnest around age twenty. She quickly became enmeshed in the artistic milieu building around her, though as a woman in a movement that was very focused on masculinity, and as a figurative painter in a moment where abstraction ruled the day, she was always something of a divergent figure. Despite this seeming clash, the intensity of Detroit's Cass Corridor scene—a neighborhood that in the 1960s and 70s was home to a vigorous group of young artists—was a perfect match for her extraordinary drive to paint. Working from the world around her and from photographs, the paintings she produced were energetic, assertive, and direct.

Annette Kelm, Percent for Art, 2013, c-print, 6 parts, 28 3/8 x 19 3/4 in. Courtesy of the artist and Andrew Kreps Gallery.
The photographic works of the Berlin-based artist Annette Kelm often feature a single, vaguely familiar object, which she renders using a direct and realistic style that oscillates between genres, such as documentary and advertising. She makes series revolving around these objects, pressing the relationship between photography and sculpture—her work moves between the creation of images and the recording of a staged object or objects—in order to unfold her subject's social, economic, and cultural context. The work shares much with that of contemporaries such as Josephine Pryde and Wolfgang Tillmans, but perhaps her clearest influence is Christopher Williams, who also puts his camera at the service of finding historical marks and contexts embedded within forms. Yet whereas Williams typically provides lengthy captions that help viewers decipher and unpack his images, Kelm offers few clues.

DETROIT CITY is comprised of three concurrent series: Detroit Affinities (exhibition), Detroit Speaks (education), and Detroit Stages (performance). This multi-year research program is one of the most ambitious undertakings to date at MOCAD.

The DEPE (Department of Education and Public Engagement) Space Residency Project and exhibition series presents interdisciplinary art that serves as a catalyst for learning and transformative conversation about complex social issues. DEPE Space offers opportunities to reflect upon the personal relevance of these topics and how they relate to communities in Detroit and throughout the world.
In the DEPE exhibition produced by V. Mitch McEwen and collaborators, a series of design studies, maps, and abstract design codes will reimagine processes of demolition and preservation, specifically focusing on the tens of thousands of vacant houses in the city that were built in the early 20th century. This extensive collection of studies continues the ongoing research of McEwen Studio and A(n) Office focusing on demolition alternatives for publicly owned vacant structures. Visitors will encounter an excessive number of architectural scale models arranged from the floor of the gallery to the steel girders above. These architectural models, fabricated both by hand and digital processes, coalesce into a large sculptural field. Alongside these study objects, animations and interactive tools show how these design tactics would impact the image of the city.
DEPE Space is supported by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Mitch McEwen's Methexis is supported by the University of Michigan Office of Research, John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, and the Taubman College, University of Michigan.

Get Nailed 2011 Public intervention and performance | New Museum, New York, New York Image credit: Chris Mosier. From the publication, Nailed: The History of Nail Culture and Dzine.
Carlos Rolón makes art a universal experience for everyone to share. For his Mobile Homestead project, Vintage Voyages and Atomic Memories, Rolón will create a pop-up nail salon within the context of a domestic space reminiscent of his family's home on the Southside of Chicago. On Saturdays during the run of the exhibition, gifted nail artists will work in the installation, creating customized nail designs for visitors who have made prior appointments. Each room will be decorated and finished with vintage wallpaper, framed mirrors, and craft based works such as hanging handmade macramé's for visitors to explore. Rolón views this project as a community service in both micro and macro forms. The various retro decorated rooms will serve as visual backdrop and speak to the many influences of an era when ornate tchotchkes, optic and geometric wallpaper design went beyond kitsch and into modern art. The complete installation and nail salon creates a sense of wonder that is bold and brilliant, leaving the viewer with visual re-discoveries and new conversations.

Higley-Baseline intersection is Gilbert's most dangerous
When Trudy Wolff hears ambulance sirens blare near her husband's optometry office in Gilbert, she wonders whether another traffic calamity has occurred in the town's most dangerous intersection.
That's usually a good guess, even though Dr. Paul Wolff's office is only a half mile from Banner Gateway Medical Center.
Baseline and Higley roads intersection, only a few yards from Wolff's office, has the dubious distinction of recording the most collisions in Gilbert in 2011 and 2012, according to Gilbert police statistics. It also has been ranked among the worst 10 intersections in previous years, records show.
"We'll hear sirens and we'll say, my goodness, was that just another accident?" Trudy Wolff said.
Leah Webster, who works in Wolff's office, agrees: "It's a dangerous intersection. Once it's done, it will be nice."
Wolff, Webster and others who work near the intersection are relieved that Gilbert is reconstructing the intersection. They are begrudgingly willing to accept the pain of months of construction delays for the pleasure of driving through a safer intersection sometime this spring.
In a frequent complaint during highway construction projects, restaurant owner Martha Maria Cruz, who operates Maria's Mexican Food, said her business is way down as drivers apparently avoid the roadwork.
"It's hard. These last two months, I've lost a lost of business," she said.
The $4.6 million project will eliminate a traffic bottleneck, one of several along Higley Road, an example of a thoroughfare built when Gilbert was a rural community before it became overloaded by traffic as the result of the town's explosive growth.
The primary problem is that northbound Higley shrinks from three lanes to one near Baseline Road, leading to regular backups and unsafe conditions, locals say.
Despite the construction, "we're doing well," said Suzette Ealy, who opened her Furry Friends Salon five months ago next to a Safeway supermarket. "Hopefully, it will get better when the road gets done. Sometimes, things need to get worse until they get better."
Jessica Faulds, who works at the pet-grooming business, said she has clearly been struck twice during the construction project while heading south on Higley from Mesa. "It's horrible. I can barely turn out to go home," she said.
Gilbert police statistics verify, however, that the intersection has been bad for a long time, not just during the construction mess.
Other dangerous intersections that consistently make the "10 worst" list in Gilbert include Higley and Williams Field roads, which ranks fourth this year and was second in 2011, seventh in 2008 and third in 2007.
That intersection is also under reconstruction, said Erik Guderian, Gilbert's town traffic engineer.
He said the same condition created both dangerous intersections.
When possible, Gilbert usually waits to improve an intersection until development is planned nearby. The cost of rebuilding the road is passed along to the property owners through a formula based upon their frontage in an attempt to make growth pay for itself.
But in the case of Higley and Baseline, plans to develop the farmland at the southeast corner fell through, leaving northbound Higley too narrow to handle the heavy traffic load, Guderian said.
"There's not anything definite going in on that southeast corner," Guderian said. "We have a few bottleneck locations where we can't wait for development to fix those."
Police and traffic engineers say that engineering, enforcement of traffic laws and public education are the most important factors in improving public safety.
An example of engineering providing welcome relief for everyone was the reconstruction of Warner and Cooper roads. That intersection does not make the list in 2011 or 2012 after it was rebuilt.
But Warner and Cooper ranked as the fifth most dangerous intersection in 2010, the second worst in 2009, fourth in 2008 and third in 2007.
Gilbert police Commander Kenny Buckland said that correcting driver behavior through enforcement of traffic laws is another vital element in reducing collisions.
"We look at our collisions every month and talk about what we can do differently," he said. "There appears to be a lot of distracted driving going on."
Buckland said one major factor in many collisions involves impatient drivers who misjudge when it is safe to make a left turn on a green light. He said motorists often misjudge the speed of oncoming cars or are hindered by a lack of visibility.
"If I could figure out a way for people to be more patient when making those left turns," collisions would drop markedly, Buckland said.

UPGRADE: Please report anything out of the ordinary post-upgrade in this thread: http://www.orthodoxchristianity.net/forum/index.php/topic,66430.new.html
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
Irish Orthodox...Thank you and I agree with you 100% Latin theology wants to disect God and his glorious mysteries to a bunch of mumbojumbo that priests tell me that I can't understand. I repect Catholic theologians and Latin theology but I think it better fits a court room than the body of Christ: the Church.
Well...I'm gunna make this simple...I believe at Divine Liturgy the bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Christ by a miracle performed by the Holy Spirit, I will attempt to explain how, all I know is before Divine Liturgy its just bread, and after Divine Liturgy, it is Jesus.God bless.
Also Christ's physical resurrected body is at the right hand of the Father and He's not getting chunks bitten off of His body every time communion is celebrated.
Quote from: Doubting Thomas on November 06, 2003, 12:47:32 PMAlso Christ's physical resurrected body is at the right hand of the Father and He's not getting chunks bitten off of His body every time communion is celebrated.From the prayers of preparation for communion, my understanding is that each person taking communion receives the whole of Christ's body.
<edit>I just read Phils response regarding the meaning of "catholic" where he states the following:But the Church is the Body of Christ, and just as in the Eucharist even the smallest fragment is nevertheless the whole Christ, each local Church, however small, is in actuality the fulness of the Catholic Church. Thus, the Orthodox see the Church not as a monolithic institution, but as a communion of all the local Churches, unified primarily by holding the Orthodox faith, celebrating the Holy Mysteries, and by communion with the other Orthodox Churches.I thought it fit in nicely here John.
I think we Orthodox do believe in transubstantiation, insofar as transubstantiation means the complete transformation of the bread and wine of the Eucharist into the true Body and Blood of Christ.The Eucharist is not bread and wine + Christ. It is not merely a symbol of the Body and Blood of Christ. It is not bread and wine + "a spiritual Presence."It is the true Body and Blood of Christ and NOTHING LESS."What seems bread is not bread, though bread by taste; but the Body of Christ. What seems wine is not wine, though the taste will have it so; but the Blood of Christ" (St. Cyril of Jerusalem, quoted in Mike Aquilina's The Way of the Fathers, p. 61).
Keble: At this late date I don't see the point in arguing whether the Body is or is not also bread in some sense. One doesn't perceive the Body physically, after all, but spiritually, and hence, if the Body is there, what does it matter if the bread is there or not?
At any rate, can't we at least agree that there is a much more serious issue being debated when we are talking about whether it is the body and blood or not, than when we are talking about when it is bread and wine or not?
QuoteAt any rate, can't we at least agree that there is a much more serious issue being debated when we are talking about whether it is the body and blood or not, than when we are talking about when it is bread and wine or not?No, because the faith is a package deal, all or nothing. This isn't a matter of opinion about which Christians can disagree and remain in communion, as we can about political and economic systems and theological opinions such as limbo or the aerial toll-houses theory about the particular judgement.

Convention (IV) relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War. Geneva, 12 August 1949.
of 1958
[p.640] ANNEX II
This draft which, according to Article 109 (paragraph 1)
of the Convention, will be applied in the absence of special agreements between the Parties, deals with the conditions for the receipt and distribution of collective relief shipments.
It is based on the traditions of the International Committee of the Red Cross which submitted it, and on the experience the Committee gained during the Second World War.
During the 1914-1918 war, the International Agency set up by the International Committee had distributed some relief to prisoners of war (1) and its relief activities were recommenced and considerably expanded during the Second World War.
The development of total war had indeed made essential this type of action by an impartial humanitarian body. Between 1939 and 1947, the International Committee of the Red Cross carried out extensive activities on behalf of an unprecedented number of prisoners of war and internees of all categories, and the civilian populations of many countries. These activities reached their peak in 1943-1944 with 2,000 wagons received and dispatched per month; the International Committee had become the greatest relief distribution centre on the continent of Europe.
Below are the eight Articles of the Draft Regulations with a brief commentary.
[p.641] ARTICLE 1
Since the Internee Committees have the general task of furthering the physical, spiritual and intellectual well-being of the internees (Article 103, paragraph 1
), it was logical to recognize their right to distribute relief, a right which is furthermore implicit in Article 104
relative to the privileges of the Internee Committees, the second paragraph of which expressly mentions the "receipt of supplies". The rights thus conferred on Internee Committees, however, must not be allowed to run counter to the interests of internees who might be forgotten through temporary absence from the main place of internment. It is for that reason that the Article makes explicit reference to those who might be in hospital or in a detached working party.
Notes: (1) [(1) p.640] As had the Basle Agency, a forerunner of the
Central Prisoners of War Agency, as early as 1870. See
above, p. 541;

SwapChain::Present exhibits asynchronous behaviour and queues blit/flip operations rather than performing them immediately. Depending on your swap mode (you seem to be using blit rather than flip) the rate at which the queue gets processed with vsync disabled will vary, as will the maximum length of the queue.
You're submitting frames at roughly 200/s and they're being consumed by the device at about 70/s; so it's most likely that you're saturating the presentation queue and the Present function is then blocking until there's some free space.
