My Works Here[edit]
The articles from this user mainly come from Geography 22, Music with 20 and Sports with 13. My first Muic article was on Ray Cash. Not due to him being a limited star, or should I say beginning musician, my hopes for the article never met what I wanted. The Twin Towers was my first article in Wikipedia and in sports or Sports entertainment, this was my first article to sucessfully stay on the Encyclopedia for more than a week, and was a summary style article. I never thought of doing geography until I went to the requested articles in Philosophies, and culture, and then I thought it would make me an impressive writer. It has recieved the highest success, through becoming the Geography project's Featured article as of September 27 2006. Basketball (ball) was/ and is my favorite sports article, it nearly achived GA Status, but still needs repair. My first article was created on July 21st this year.
Whenever I make/or made a Music article, I do like to give my opinions in the article. Though that is a WP:NOT. Therefore I try to avoid, as much details that are not NPOV when making an article. However, I feel qoutes are important in Music articles. My most arguable moment in Music, was in joining the Wikiproject Music Genres a while back when I was still trying to find myself as a Wikipedian. I made a enormous article name 1980s Rock now just Rock, which is the longest article I'd made, and Acid Blues, which already knew about before researching. My favorite article is sort of about a female jazz singer, Lonie Walker. When I first wrote the article, I was disappointed in the grammar (Note: I read all my articles), and added 5 cleanup templates on the top. I decided to clean it up lately. In addition, almost all articles, had required an infobox, which were hard to do. They were also fun to do but annoying. I did infoboxes on singles(e.g. Bumpin' My Music), an album (C.O.D.(Cash on Delivery), and etc. Music is a great way to start a francise of articles include ones on Ray Cash, and.Acid Blues. What I enjoy most about Music articles is that one article leads to another.
Geography, was the only subject I'd never find myself researching, naturally. However, I have made to solid or better Geography of... articles. I was so impressed on doing my Geography of North America article, that I wanted to other articles under Geography to stand with its greatness. I read geography articles to get a taste of what my article should be like, a good amount of them are well-done. In contrast, I'm beginning to think that an article like that comes once in a while, I'm right. To achieve a wonder like that one, I made careless articles that went on to be deleted to my dismay. I moved on to articles that had to deal with no people, but the environment. These include Natural resources of Ireland and the Weever fish article series. What I pretty much learn from researching and reading my texts are the physical appearance and actions of the living things in a certain region. I've even made an article on European country capitals. If I create another geography article, it'll have to be on a country, I've done a continent and province or state. Those were pretty good. Ignore the stupid editors with no names. What I enjoy most about this field is how the environment reacts in certain regions. I consider politics under Geography. And what not.
Last but not least, Sports, Sports articles are fun, infact probably hands down, are in, with probably the hardest thing to cover is statistics. Statisics are to me a fun way to compare, contrast, or interpret a developing subject or person. Though this hard to do for a basketball player, whom one plays the sport for several years. The Basketball (ball) article was my first success as an article, due to the fact, it nearly passed as a good article. It was fun to read, and the feedback on the article I'd mostly agreed with but did not enjoy. This was my first success (now others), but not first basketball article. Hoopfest, which I already knew what was about before I wrote it, was my irst basketball article. I belive it has good paragraphs, but not all sections are compelted, I'd just finished. I did my best to describe the event. I made three professionl wrestling tag-teams articles, "to start me off" and work myself up big when it came to Basketball. A forgotten article includes the Louisville Catbirds, which I cleaned up, but if you know who they are, you'd help this article. It was a start-off as well as others. What's good about sports articles is that it is easy to relate to, put yourself in the story, and deals alot with statistics.
Overall, looking at my work, I feel I am an okay/becoming better writer who deserves more respect. I'm not stubbist, I just consider myself really good at summarizing material? Some articles I do not research to be full, though some I do. I've wrote many great writings outside my time here, which is why I decided to join. If any of my articles a) Make it to Wikipedia's CD selection, b) Is referenced on the internet, found on the internet, or in my school or c) recieves good feedback then I would've found my works notable here. I've found about 5 articles, I've made on the internet, and I belive 45% of my articles are currently being researched. I plan to stop with 100 articles and stop in 2008 Thank God 2007 is going fast. I have went from being naive to the website, to being able to navigate all around the site to find work. What I enjoy most about being a wikipedian is that I have more articles than most of you.

SMS Gazelle was the lead ship of the ten-vessel Gazelle class, built by the Imperial German Navy. Armed with a main battery of ten 10.5 cm (4.1 in) guns and two 45 cm (18 in) torpedo tubes, Gazelle was capable of a top speed of 19.5 knots (36.1 km/h; 22.4 mph). She was commissioned into the High Seas Fleet in 1901 and participated in the Venezuela Crisis. She served with the fleet until 1914, when she was employed as a coastal defense ship after the outbreak of World War I. After hitting a mine, she was reduced to a mine storage hulk. In 1920, she was stricken from the naval register and sold for scrap.

Backward Runs French. Reels the Mind.
By ALEXANDER STILLE
Published: August 17, 2002
Those who have studied French but haven't been in France for a while may find themselves confused when they overhear conversations that sound familiar but remain largely incomprehensible. Gradually they may realize, or some kind soul may explain, that what they are hearing is a popular slang called Verlan in which standard French spellings or syllables are reversed or recombined, or both.
Thus the standard greeting ''Bonjour, ça va?'' or ''Good day, how are you?'' becomes ''Jourbon, ça av?'' ''Une fête'' (a party) has become ''une teuf''; the word for woman or wife, femme, has become meuf; a café has become féca; and so on. The word Verlan itself is a Verlanization of the term l'envers, meaning ''the reverse.''
Within a couple of decades, Verlan has spread from the peripheral housing projects of France's poorest immigrants, heavily populated with Africans and North African Arabs, and gained widespread popularity among young people across France. It has seeped into film dialogue, advertising campaigns, French rap and hip-hop music, the mainstream media. It has even made it into some of the country's leading dictionaries.
A language of alienation that has, paradoxically, also become a means of integration, Verlan expresses France's love-hate relationship with its immigrant community and has begun to attract a number of scholarly studies.
''Speaking backwards becomes a metaphor of opposition, of talking back,'' writes Natalie Lefkowitz, a professor of French applied linguistics at Central Washington University in Ellensburg, Wash., and the author of ''Talking Backwards, Looking Forwards: The French Language Game Verlan'' (Gunter Narr, 1991), which, when it was published, was one of the first major studies of Verlan.
But along with its subversive element, Ms. Lefkowitz explained in an interview, ''for the young urban professional, Verlan is a form of political correctness expressing solidarity with and awareness of the immigrant community at a time of anti-immigrant politics.''
The first documented uses of Verlan date to the 19th century, when it was used as a code language among criminals, said the French scholar Louis-Jean Calvet. But the current and most widespread use of Verlan has its origins in the growth of France's banlieus, the peripheral areas outside major cities, where the government built high-rise housing for its immigrant worker population after World War II. In the 1960's and 70's, many North African workers were joined there by their wives and families.
''This housing that was supposed to be temporary, and was built intentionally apart from the mainstream society, became permanent,'' said Meredith Doran, an assistant professor of French applied linguistics at Penn State University, who recently finished a dissertation on the culture and language of the French banlieus. Their inhabitants also call a banlieu la Cité, which has been Verlanized into ''la Téçi.''
Verlan caught on among the second generation of immigrants who were living between cultures. ''They were born in France and often did not speak Arabic,'' Ms. Lefkowitz said, ''but they did not feel integrated into France.''
Ms. Doran explained, ''Verlan was a way of their establishing their language and their own distinct identity.'' The term beur, which is a Verlanization of the French word Arabe, refers specifically to the second- and third-generation North Africans. Until recently, there was even a radio station of French North Africans called Radio Beur.
''Verlan has many functions,'' writes Vivienne Méla, an anthropologist who teaches at the University of Paris VIII, in a recent article called ''Verlan 2000.'' ''Initially, it was a secret language that allowed people to speak about illicit activities without being understood. And while Verlan conserves this function, its principal function is for young people to express both their difference and their attachment to a French identity. They have invented a culture that is in between the culture of their parents, which they no longer possess, and the French culture to which they don't have complete access.''
Verlan, however, is also widely spoken by the other immigrant groups of the banlieus, mainly sub-Saharan Africans and Caribbean blacks. And Verlan, along with reversing syllables and words, has also incorporated terms from Creole, Arabic, Rom (the language of the Gypsies) and American slang to create a kind of speech of the disenfranchised.
''Verlan serves as an interface between these different groups who do not have a common language,'' said Alain Rey, one of the editors of the Petit Robert dictionary, the first of the standard dictionaries to incorporate a number of Verlan terms.
More than just reversing words, scholars say, Verlan reverses what have traditionally been regarded as negative qualities in France -- ethnic and religious differences, non-French identity, nonstandard speech -- and turns them into positive attributes that are consciously cultivated.

Keith Anderson celebrated the gold record success of his album, Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll, at an exclusive industry party at Nashville's 3rd & Lindsley club Dec. 6.
Keith selected the venue because it was home to Keith and his band for a couple years as he was trying to secure a record label deal. He had a standing gig there every other Wednesday, Keith noted. Keith thanked his parents, who were on hand for the celebration, for supporting his decision to move to Nashville and become a country singer. "You just keep chasing the dream," Keith told the crowd, "and this is the only place it can happen."

Just days after the debut of the official trailer and six photos for Scream 4, Dimension Films has released two new stills of Emma Roberts, Courtney Cox and David Arquette in the fourth installment of the horror franchise.
Directed by Wes Craven from a screenplay by Kevin Williamson, Scream 4 sees the return of Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott, who's now the author of a self-help book. When she appears in Woodsboro as part of her book tour, Sidney reconnects with Sheriff Dewey and Gale (Arquette and Cox), her cousin Jill (Roberts) and her Aunt Kate (Mary McDonnell). Unfortunately Sidney's homecoming also brings about the return of Ghostface, putting Sidney, Gale and Dewey, along with Jill, her friends, and the whole town, in danger.
The film, which opens on April 15, also stars Hayden Panettiere, Rory Culkin, Anthony Anderson, Adam Brody, Marley Shelton, Nico Tortorella, Marielle Jaffe, Kristen Bell, Anna Paquin, Lucy Hale, Shanae Grimes, Aimee Teegarden and Brittany Robertson.
Now that I know she has an aunt, Ghostface is probably her aunt, taking vengeance AGAIN because of something stupid Sidney's mom did. Or she is Sidney's real mom. Or something stupid.

Answered: ST 2.1 - pull refresh not added to list when store is empty
Since I upgrade to 2.1, I've found that the pull refresh plugin is only added to lists that have store that have at least one record in them. This does not work for my use case as records may be added by other users to the server and I want users to be able to refresh the 'no records.' message with a pull refresh to see if anyone added a record/data to the server.
Is this an intentional change?

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Biogen Idec is paying Portola Pharmaceuticals $36 million in cash and $9 million in equity under an exclusive, worldwide collaboration to conduct R&D in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Specifically, they will work to develop and commercialize highly selective, novel oral Syk inhibitors. Biogen has agreed to make additional payments of up to $508.5 million based on the achievement of certain development and regulatory milestones.
The collaboration's lead molecule, Portola's Phase I PRT062607, has been shown to be a highly potent and specific oral inhibitor of Syk in a broad panel of in vitro kinase and cellular assays, Biogen and Portola state. The compound is in Phase I trials in RA, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia as well as in additional preclinical studies.
Biogen Idec will lead global development and commercialization efforts for the Syk inhibitor program in major indications such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, while Portola will lead U.S. development and commercialization efforts for select smaller indications. Portola will also be in charge of discovery efforts for follow-on Syk inhibitors.
Portola retains an option to co-promote in the U.S. in major indications. Worldwide costs and profits will be split by Biogen and Portola 75 percent and 25 percent, respectively.
"This program is an excellent strategic fit with our focus on immunology," notes George A. Scangos, Ph.D., CEO of Biogen Idec. "Portola is a high-quality company with a great track record in small molecules, and we have crafted a collaboration that truly is a win for both companies. We will now focus on a thoughtful and aggressive program to fully explore the potential of Portola's compounds against this very interesting target, with the goal of creating an effective, safe, and convenient oral treatment for patients with debilitating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases."

EA's Wii-specific game boogies down.
At an EA event during GDC, we got a brief first look at the dancing mechanics. During the presentation, a character resembling Patrick, the lovable starfish from the Spongebob cartoons, swayed side-to-side when the Nunchuck moved side-to-side -- when it moved in a circular motion the boogie-man did the cabbage patch.
|SCREENS: Boogie-man's eyes (and head) follow the Wii Remote shown by the eye icons on the screen, so you can add in a couple of head nods by flicking the Remote up and down. [Click the image above to check out all Boogie screens.]
Though we only saw one dance floor and one character, and only heard one song, EA assures us that the boogie-man is merely one of many danceable characters -- more dance floors and song selections should follow suit. And don't worry -- your character won't have to always wear the same white suit either.
If you feel like you can dance particularly well, you will even be able to create your own music videos -- though how this will be accomplished is not yet known. And yes, EA is including singing functionality in the game as well, though we only saw dancing at the presentation. We assume a Wii microphone will be available when the game ships later this year.

yeah...ckmlb's hype didn't make much logical sense ...but anyways, are they really gonna have a starpower meter thing and call it a starpower meter, or is it just that the author of this article plays too much Guitar Hero?
ckmlbPosted: Mar 23, 2007 12:00AM PST by coldplaysux19
your comment doesn't really make sense...i don't think this game looks that great either...i'm just saying...i play guitar and i like guitar hero, but guitar hero is NOTHING like playing real guitar...so this will probably be nothing like dancing. guitar hero doesn't make sense in the fact that five buttons can produce so many different notes when each button clearly represents a single fret. this game could be good...i thought guitar hero would suck because it looks so lame and the guitar looks like a toy for little kids, but that ended up being really good.

VATICAN CITY - Quebec Archbishop Gerald Cyprien Lacroix was formally inducted as a cardinal Saturday at St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City.
Lacroix was one of 19 men selected by Pope Francis to take on the senior ecclesiastical post.
Retired Pope Benedict XVI was also on hand for the ceremony honouring the new "princes" of the Catholic Church.
The appointment means the 56-year-old Lacroix will have a hand in electing the next pope, which is a cardinal's most important task.
The native of Saint-Hilaire de Dorset, a small town 300 kilometres east of Montreal, was named Quebec's archbishop in 2011.
There are now four cardinals from Canada, with Lacroix joining Marc Ouellet, Jean-Claude Turcotte, and Thomas Collins.
Many of the new cardinals chosen by Pope Francis hail from Asia, Africa, Latin America, and include representatives from developing nations like Haiti and Burkina Faso.
The selections are in line with his belief that the church must pay more attention to the poor.

The result looks nice but the logo and navbar which were previously aligned are not on the same line anymore. The logo is on the top left corner and the navbar + title menus are below on the right
Somebody has already raised the issue that the use of .row-fluid to divide the contents in page-layout might lead to some side effects.
I suppose that my problem is related
Any suggestion for having simultaneously a specific column layout in some pages and keeping the logo and navbar box in line ?

The warehouse club Costco has chosen Citigroup and Visa to run its co-branded credit card starting next year, replacing American Express, which lost the coveted deal last month.
Severing an exclusive deal with the warehouse retailer has swiped some $8 billion in market value from the card company. Gains at MasterCard and Visa offset only part of that, note Rob Cox and Stephanie Rogan of Reuters Breakingviews.
Costco said that starting next year it would stop accepting American Express credit cards at its United States stores.

A novel class of micro electrodes, specifically designed to interface with neuronal systems, is presented. The electrodes were fabricated by synthesizing high density carbon nanotube islands on lithographically defined, passivated titanium nitride conductors on a silicon dioxide substrate. Here we show that these novel bio-compatible electrodes facilitate two special functions: neuronal tissue patterning as well as recording of the cell's electrical activity. High fidelity extra-cellular recordings from cultured neurons was performed and analyzed to validate the effectiveness of the fabricated electrodes.

Hi Samer,
Thanks for the quick response. I will continue my journey to spread the news :)
Hi, I'm not sure if there is anything available or not but figured it's worth a try. My daughter has been selected to go to Costa Rica next year with her school. She's one of only 11 student selected and she's so excited, however we need to pay $2600. I was wondering if there are any grants for these types of things ? Thanks in advance. Any guidance is appreciated.
Hi Patricia. I think you'll find that most student travel grants are for study abroad opportunities. To pay for something like your daughter's trip to Costa Rica, you're probably going to have to do some fundraising. Some schools will do things like car washes to build up a scholarship fund for a trip, or you could try one of the online crowdfunding sites, like www.gofundme.com.
How can we add a grant offering to your list?
L D Coleman, you can share the details here, and our editors will take a look to see if it's a good fit for the list.
Thank you Samer! Here are the details:

U.S. Sees Limited Chinese Backlash Against Its Arms Sales to Taiwan
Beijing's Milder Reaction Shows Value It Places on Defense Ties, Officials Say
WASHINGTON—China's premium on bilateral military ties with Washington appears to be tempering its reaction to the recent U.S. decision to sell arms to Taiwan, say current and former U.S. officials.
Beijing responded with heated rhetoric to last month's decision by the Obama administration to sell $6.4 billion of arms to the island, which China considers part of its territory. But the U.S. officials say the military fallout from the decision appears more limited than two years ago, when China blocked port visits to Hong Kong by U.S. warships and broke off many defense contacts in response to arms sales.
Just this week, a group of ships led by the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier was allowed into Hong Kong. Meantime, Pentagon officials said standing invitations to visit China extended to both Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, haven't been rescinded.
Senior U.S. defense officials cautioned they have yet to receive a formal notification of China's response to the Jan. 29 decision, in which the administration announced it would sell Patriot antimissile systems, Black Hawk helicopters, and mine-hunting ships to Taiwan.
People who have discussed the issue with Chinese officials said there is still debate within the Chinese government over how to respond.
But U.S. defense officials said they believe China is taking a more "calibrated" approach to the decision, arguing that the People's Liberation Army and other Chinese leaders have put increasing value on bilateral military ties.
"The Chinese have to make some type of statement that underscores they view this as a core issue to them," a senior defense official said. "But I do think that over the past year, we saw some institutional learning on the part of the PLA and the senior Chinese political leadership that there is value in maintaining these kinds of contacts and interactions."
In response to announcements of Taiwan arms sales in 2007 and 2008, Beijing took a series of actions that worried and angered American officials, including canceling a long-scheduled port call to Hong Kong by the USS Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier in November 2007.
Chinese officials at the time said the move was a response to U.S. moves to upgrade Taiwan antimissile systems. The same month, two U.S. Navy minesweepers were denied harbor in Hong Kong ahead of a raging storm in the Pacific.
Following the October 2008 decision by the departing Bush administration to sell $6.4 billion in arms to Taiwan, Beijing also canceled or postponed 10 separate military exchanges planned by the two countries.
Not all military contacts were halted at the time, however, and another senior defense official said the Hong Kong incidents may not be an accurate indication of Beijing's intentions because Chinese officials have in the past treated Hong Kong differently from the rest of mainland China.
But experts and people who have discussed the issue with both U.S. and Chinese officials said the Hong Kong port call, as well as subtle differences between official statements made in 2008 and last month, are strong indications Beijing would like to move beyond the dispute and quickly resume official contacts.
"They are all in damage-control mode," said Douglas Paal, an East Asia expert at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace who has discussed the issue with Chinese officials. "What they're trying to do is figure out how long is a decent interval between the arms sale announcement and the Dalai Lama's visit to the White House and when President Hu Jintao can come here."
During President Obama's trip to Beijing in November, Chinese President Hu agreed to include provisions in official statements that emphasized the importance of "sustained and reliable" military exchanges—a further sign, U.S. officials said, of a shifting Chinese view.
Wang Baodong, a spokesman for the Chinese Embassy in Washington, said Beijing's stance hasn't changed. He repeated China's call for the administration to "correct the erroneous decision" approving the sales.
"China is strongly for sound bilateral relations with the U.S., including military-to-military exchanges, but there is a prerequisite," Mr. Wang said.
As part of its objection to the January announcement, China warned it would also punish companies involved in the arms sales, a threat that would most affect U.S. defense firms with large commercial relationships with Beijing, particularly Boeing Co. BA 0.49 %
Earlier this week, Air China, Beijing's flagship airline, announced the purchase of 20 planes from European rival Airbus. But people familiar with the deal said the acquisition was originally agreed to in 2007.
Current and former U.S. officials said part of the reason for the restrained reaction may be due to the administration's decision to not include weapons that Beijing was most concerned about, including F-16 fighters and funds for diesel-powered submarines.
"They were fairly clear with us in the run-up as to what they considered to be their red lines," the senior defense official said. The official added, however: "We made our decision based solely upon our assessment of Taiwan's defense needs, not based upon any consideration of what China was telling us."

Internal Bleeding (cont.)
Internal Bleeding Follow-up
Internal bleeding is not normal. Aside from making certain that the bleeding has remained under control and any tissue damage begins to heal, follow-up care often addresses the reasons the bleeding occurred in the first place. Patients that are prescribed anticlotting medication need to have scheduled tests and follow up with their physicians to determine if they are under or over anticoagulated.

When trying to install wordpress on bluehost (my nameservers are pointed at bluehost), I get all the files up -- mySQL database created and data in the config files just like it should be. However, when I go to /wp-admin/install.php, I receive the message that:
Warning! Domain mapping upgrade for this domain not found. Please log in and go to the Domains Upgrades page of your blog to use this domain.
From what I can tell, I have to already have a wordpress blog then sign up for domain mapping, but to do that I have to change the nameservers on my domain to point to wordpress. If I do that, though, my domain won't point to bluehost and I won't be able to access the database. Am I doing something wrong here?

Science and religion: implications for science educators

A religious perspective on life shapes how and what those with such a perspective learn in science; for some students a religious perspective can hinder learning in science. For such reasons Staver's article is to be welcomed as it proposes a new way of resolving the widely perceived discord between science and religion. Staver notes that Western thinking has traditionally postulated the existence and comprehensibility of a world that is external to and independent of human consciousness. This has led to a conception of truth, truth as correspondence, in which our knowledge corresponds to the facts in this external world. Staver rejects such a conception, preferring the conception of truth as coherence in which the links are between and among independent knowledge claims themselves rather than between a knowledge claim and reality. Staver then proposes constructivism as a vehicle potentially capable of resolving the tension between religion and science. My contention is that the resolution between science and religion that Staver proposes comes at too great a cost—both to science and to religion. Instead I defend a different version of constructivism where humans are seen as capable of generating models of reality that do provide richer and more meaningful understandings of reality, over time and with respect both to science and to religion. I argue that scientific knowledge is a subset of religious knowledge and explore the implications of this for science education in general and when teaching about evolution in particular.

Genetical systems biology or systems genetics treats the genome as the central reference point for all omics variations and is an emerging new branch of systems biology. Quantitative genetic principles were developed for high-throughput genomic, transcriptomic and metabolomic data observed in large populations. New statistical genetic models were developed for expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), namely, marker regression eQTL mapping and marker-expression co-factor mapping. Evaluations of power to detect eQTL showed that sample size requirements are higher for detecting trans-acting genes than cis-acting genes. Power is higher for eQTL with high heritability than for eQTL with low heritability. These results will be valuable for systems genetic investigations. Gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) and its receptor gene (GnRH-R) are crucial for mammalian reproduction. Whole genome scan of eQTLs for GnRH-R gene expression in mouse showed three possible trans-eQTL regions on chr 13 and 19, harbouring regulatory genes. Applications of genetical genomics in systems biology were identified as: (1) detection and validation of causal gene for complex traits; (2) development of genetic interaction networks; (3) prediction of transcription factor binding sites and (4) in data-driven systems biology. These applications were illustrated using data on eQTL, protein network and signalling pathways for GnRH. Gpr54 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 54), Prl (prolactin), Ins1 (insulin) and Fos (viral oncogenes) were found to be major regulators of GnRH and GnRH-R; thus validating their important role in reproduction, mammary gland development and sexual (im)maturity. These results will be useful for further study of mammalian reproductive biology.

Shoulda been Biden in the door, with "Rectum"...
Exactly - that scene is a good summary of the Obama/Biden and Democrat campaign platform. Biden was reminding us of the Joker through his antics, and then within it asked "Who do you trust?" to complete the comparison.

Ireland were denied an historic first series victory over full-member opposition after falling short when chasing just 97 to win the second Twenty20 international against West Indies in Jamaica.
Having won the first match with a six-wicket victory on Wednesday, Ireland looked on course for a record-breaking triumph when they limited the reigning ICC World Twenty20 champions to 96 for nine at Sabina Park.
Seamer Alex Cusack claimed superb figures of 4-11 - including a rare maiden over in this format - as six Windies batsmen got into double figures without reaching 20.
But Ireland could not get over the line, making only 85 for eight in reply as the West Indies bowlers held their nerve in a nail-biting run chase to secure an 11-run win and tie the two-match series 1-1.
Ireland never recovered after slumping to 29 for five, with captain William Porterfield, Ed Joyce and the big-hitting Kevin O'Brien among those to fall .
Wicketkeeper Gary Wilson gave Ireland a glimmer of hope with 35 off 39 balls but when he was the seventh wicket to fall in the 18th over, caught and bowled by Dwayne Bravo, the tourists' bid was all but over.
West Indies captain Darren Sammy took 3- 22, while Krishmar Santokie, Samuel Badree and Sunil Narine all backed him up with miserly spells.
The two teams meet again on Sunday in the sole one-day international of Ireland's trip.
