In response to Economist Fired for Expressing Opinions on Max Keiser Show; Errors in Observation where I stated "The Fed Cannot Realistically Cause Hyperinflation" I received a couple of emails worth reviewing.
Reader Philip writes ...
I do not understand how you could say that the Fed cannot cause hyperinflation. The government has a huge debt. The debt is manageable at super low rates. But, if rates rise due to some inflation or even just caution from abroad then the government starts paying a very large sum in interest. That takes away from its obligations even more than the current deficit amount. Either the Fed has to step in and monetize the debt by printing more and more money spiraling out of control.Definition of Terms
In every modern case of hyperinflation the decision to inflate was a political one, not an economic one. In almost every case hyperinflation followed a war or a coup or some massive political change such as the end of the Soviet empire or the rise of a dictator or a populist-socialist takeover, and other political unrest.
In the 20th Century there were quite a number of hyperinflationary events. I used the Wikipedia list of modern hyperinflations (Since WWI) and researched the political circumstances of each country. The circumstances can be put into three rough categories: post-war disruption, post-Soviet collapse, and socialist-populist regimes.
For example we all know what happened in Germany during after WWI when politicians, mostly socialists, blamed all their problems on reparations and continued to print so much money that it resulted in the famous cash-in-a-wheelbarrow photos. They literally had no clue what they were doing.
The post-Soviet empire collapse is easier to understand as former communist/socialist regimes fought for power and struggled with economic policy. Many of these countries have reformed or were forced to reform their monetary and fiscal policies.
Many of the socialist-Marxist regimes were Latin American populist governments who employed "revolutionary" anti-capitalist nostrums for economic policy. Chile (Allende) and Argentina are good examples. Argentina has had years of high inflation to hyperinflation since 1980. In Africa most countries were a mixture of strongmen with socialist-Marxist policies. I am not suggesting that these were pure socialist governments, but rather the typical situation where the government seizes or controls large parts of industry and issues regulations controlling much economic activity.
These hyperinflations all had one common denominator: during a period of instability, spending was used as a political tool and it got out of hand. I understand that the circumstances of each country were different and that it is perhaps unfair to say, lump Israel in with Argentina. But each country faced political factors that created instability or a national crisis; the government spent heavily to gain popular support, and resorted to the printing presses to pay for their spending.
Zimbabwe vs. Weimar
In Zimbabwe, the Mugabe government initiated a "land reform" program intended to correct the inequitable land distribution created by colonial rule. Ultimately, Mugabe's attempt to to bail out the poor at the expense of the wealthy is what triggered capital flight and loss of faith of the currency.
His reforms not only caused a flight of capital and human capital (the wealthy), they also led to sanctions by the US and Europe. In response, Mugabe turned on the printing presses but the loss of faith in the currency had already occurred.
In Weimar Germany, printing for war reparations kicked off hyperinflation. Wikipedia provides a good accounting in Inflation in the Weimar Republic.
It is certainly not impossible for there to be a complete loss of faith in the US dollar, however there odds are extremely remote.
Can The Fed Cause Hyperinflation?
I do not think the Fed itself can cause hyperinflation and more importantly I am sure they would not if they could. The reason is "Hyperinflation Would End The Game"
Hyperinflation Model is Complete Silliness
To understand how powerless the Fed is, one needs to understand the difference between credit and money, how much the former dwarfs the latter, and what the Fed's role is in getting banks to lend.

Asthma Symptoms Pick-Up When Kids Head Back To School
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on September 06, 2013 @ 8:42AM
Created on September 05, 2013 @ 5:32PM
Children have been back to school for at least a couple weeks now. Unfortunately, doctors say this is the time when asthma attacks are on the rise. Studies show every year around two weeks into the school year, a few different factors cause children's asthma to trigger.
According to Dr. Alicia Maddix with United Hospital Center, these triggers are inflammation of the air way, swelling, and mucus production.
Asthma is exactly that, when you have trouble breathing due to your airway somehow being blocked.
"The number one reason for kids is colds and the flu. They get back into school that's when cold and flue season starts, so they're getting viral infections which is a big trigger for kids. Another big one is allergies," said Dr. Maddix.
If you or your child is having trouble breathing and could possibly have asthma, see your doctor as soon as possible.

Chuck U overhauls online store
Chuck U's "Geekadelic"
"It's not that I haven't been working, I just hate doing it," Twin Cities artist Chuck U says in an email to fans and friends about the recent update to his online Etsy store. Easily one of the Cities' most recognizable artists stylistically, Chuck is known for his intricate and whimsical prints that have often been used on posters, flyers and CD art around town.
To purchase a print, which, considering the quality are all modestly priced around $20 (we bought one recently and love it), click here. Chuck says he'll ship it in a tube and even throw in some stickers. Total deal.
Sidenote: We did an interview with Chuck earlier this year when he allowed us to make him a featured artist at our Gimme Shelter Haiti benefit. You can check that out here.

I've used Suffusion on more than 20 sites, and I recommend it to anyone who wants a theme/framework with maximum flexibility. You can configure Suffusion to look like nearly any website out there, and it's so well-supported by the developer and other Suffusion users that you will rarely run into a question about configuring it that can't be resolved.
The other advantage to Suffusion is that it interacts well with the ecommerce plugins that it's specifically designed to support, and with any plugin that has been coded properly. The only time that I've ever run into an issue with a plugin causing problems on my Suffusion sites, the problem has turned out to be with the plugin's code, and not with Suffusion.
It's got a bit steeper learning curve than most themes because it's actually a framework, but it's well worth the effort to learn.

Objective: Aiming at promoting young people's mental health and reducing stigma towards people with schizophrenia, project weeks were carried out with secondary school students aged 14–18 years (n=90). Key to the project week is meeting a (young) person with schizophrenia.
Method: Students' attitudes and behavioural intentions towards people with schizophrenia were assessed before and after the project. Parallelly, a control group of students were questioned (n=60). Assessment was repeated after 1 month.
Results: Despite expected ceiling effects, the project led to a significant reduction of negative stereotypes. For social distance, a positive trend could be observed. These developments were not present with the controls. Attitude changes were still evident at the 1-month follow-up.
Conclusion: Results support the hypothesis that young people's attitudes about schizophrenia are susceptible to change. Antistigma projects at school level could thus be a promising approach to improving public attitudes and to preventing stereotypes from becoming reinforced.

Unanswered Questions Ruining Obama's Perfectly Good Transition
How the Rod Blagojevich corruption scandal might taint Obama.
If you actually dare to sit down and read the full Rod Blagojevich indictment, and all the brazen, ballsy, nefarious deeds of the Patrick Fugit look-alike, you may go temporarily blind — such is the mind's inability to process that much corruption at one time. Thankfully, also revealed within those pages is proof that Barack Obama had no desire to play ball with Blagojevich's quest to sell the President-elect's Senate seat. And yet, as we all try to wrap our heads around the fallout, Obama's response is creating more questions than answers about his knowledge of the whole affair. First, Obama told reporters, "I had no contact with the governor or his office, and so we were not — I was not aware of what was happening." Bold ours. But that statement is contradicted by what David Axelrod had previously told Fox News: that Obama "talked to the governor" about the seat "and there are a whole range of names, many of which have surfaced, and I think he has a fondness for a lot of them." Yesterday Obama released a statement saying Axelrod had misspoken. So … hmmm. Whether or not somebody on Obama's team knew something was happening, even if they refused go along with Blago, is still unclear. But at the very least, this whole scandal is an unwelcome cloud hanging over Obama's highly praised transition.
• John Dickerson isn't satisfied with Obama's "muddled" response, some of which "was so vague as to be nearly meaningless." We can be pretty sure that "Obama wanted Valerie Jarrett to take his seat," so why, "in the middle of the process," did Obama suddenly stop wanting that? [Slate]
• Chuck Todd and friends say this "will be embarrassing for [Obama] and his incoming administration." We shouldn't be surprised to see a top Obama aide on tape with Blagojevich — "after all, why wouldn't you return your governor's phone calls in this post-election period?" But yesterday's initial comments weren't helpful either, and "seemed par for the course" for how Obama initially reacted to scandals over the past two years. That is, swinging and missing. [First Read/MSNBC]
• Marc Ambinder notes that Obama playing the "I won't comment because it's an ongoing investigation" card will probably not stop the questions, "even as it's entirely plausible that Obama's legal counselors have advised him not to say anything else." [Atlantic]
• Michael Crowley doesn't "think this scandal inflicts serious damage on Obama. But it's certainly a big, sordid distraction at a moment when Obama is trying to shape the early image of his presidency." [Stump/New Republic]
• Noam Scheiber is amazed by "how spectacularly Blago misunderstands Obama himself." Because there isn't really "anything in Obama's background that suggests he'd react well to such an explicit shakedown." Obama may be a calculating politician at times, but he "likes to think of himself as aboveboard," "absolutely hates being told what to do," and "is absolutely fanatical about process," even making top appointees "submit their resumes to the website." [Stump/New Republic]
• Michael Scherer notes that while Obama's team seems to not have played along with Blagojevich, "U.S. Attorney investigations often end with indictments far from where they start," which means "this will continue to be a burden for the president-elect and those around him." [Swampland/Time]
• Ben Smith and Jonathan Martin call the scandal "nothing but a stink bomb tossed at close range for Obama and his team." At this point it seems "premature," but at least one "prominent Chicago Democrat" thinks "Obama could suffer by being in the proximity of a back-scratching and deal-making culture, even if he was mostly a bystander." At the very least, "it will be hard for a transition team that wants to shine a light on their plans to clean up Washington if the steaming compost pile of Illinois politics … is in the news." [Politico]
• Rick Klein lists the many implications for Obama. For one, the "underbelly of the Obama political operation, with all its Chicago tints and taints, is now fair game for reporters looking for a story." And Obama's evasive answers so far "will not be the end of it, not even close." One obvious question: "Why did it take three weeks for Team Obama to realize Axelrod misspoke?" [Note/ABC News]
• Jennifer Rubin says that obviously Obama didn't personally speak to Blagojevich, but there "are a lot of Advisor A's and B's who need to be questioned about whether they made any progress with their plot." [Contentions/Commentary]
• Mike McIntire and Jeff Zeleny report, meanwhile, that it was Obama's influence a few months ago that pushed an ethics bill through the Illinois legislature, the same ethics bill that "indirectly contributed to the downfall" of Blagojevich. This intervention, supposedly, is a reminder that Obama "has never quite escaped the murky and insular world of Illinois politics." [NYT]
• Steve Benen actually reaches the opposite conclusion: "[D]espite his busy presidential campaign schedule, Obama has never quite given up on his commitment to ethics reform, especially in Illinois politics." [Political Animal/Washington Monthly]

Editor's note: The Oklevueha Native American Church, or ONAC, is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the legal freedom to observe Native American spiritual traditions. Some of these involve sacramental or medicinal use of various plants: Peyote, Ayahuasca, San Pedro, Cannabis, Mushrooms and others. I am an ONAC member. While law varies state by state, those who grow or use these plants--Native Americans, or otherwise--risk arrest, property confiscation, legal harassment, and police abuse. One of ONAC's members in California was recently arrested, and his property confiscated, shortly after local law enforcement were notified they have no right to do these things. ONAC is holding a press conference today to announce their response. —Xeni Jardin
There will be a press conference today, 2 PM at the Hyatt Vineyard Creek Hotel in Santa Rosa California, at 170 Railroad Street.
Noted Constitutional and Civil Rights Lawyer Matt Pappas will be announcing lawsuits and other legal actions against a number of Law Enforcement and County officials and entities.
These legal actions have become necessary because of repeated abuses of power and evidence of collusion by these groups to deprive members of the Native American Church of their Native Ceremonies and Sacraments by raiding their sacred grounds, confiscating their objects of worship and destroying the sacraments and medicines.
All of these items are protected under the 1st, 4th and 14th Amendments to the US Constitution and the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act of 2000. These protections have repeatedly been upheld by numerous court cases around the country including the US Supreme Court, US District Courts and State Supreme Courts. Read the rest
Religious freedom warrior Mike Huckabee is keeping curiously silent about the Muslim airline attendant suspended for refusing to serve alcohol as part of her job duties.
From CNN:

In a bid to get her job back, Charee Stanley filed a discrimination complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Tuesday for the revocation of a reasonable religious accommodation.
She wants to do her job without serving alcohol in accordance with her Islamic faith -- just as she was doing before her suspension, her lawyer said.
"What this case comes down to is no one should have to choose between their career and religion and it's incumbent upon employers to provide a safe environment where employees can feel they can practice their religion freely," said Lena Masri, an attorney with Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Members of the Satanic Temple of Detroit celebrated the unveiling of a $100,000, one-ton bronze Baphomet statue on Joseph Campau Avenue, while protestors show their disapproval by standing in the rain and holding up wordy banners. (They had earlier tried to block the doors to prevent people from exercising their freedom of religion but were moved away by authorities.)
Meanwhile, a warm and dry Satanist gave TV reporters a theatrical extemporaneous sermon:
"I'm so excited to see my Lord and Savior represented in such glorious Italian stone do hope his eyes gaze upon me and my allegiance is recognized. …The statue is a symbol for what they advocated the separation of church and state. You can't have one without the other you know, like a mule carts God and the devil. A cloak of shame covers this man and only supreme light wash my body clean but how could that might possibly reach me with a thick clouds of indecency surrounding my poor soul so I carry my wrongdoings on my back like some kind of tormented hiker lost in the hills of misfortune looking desperately for that peak to rescue him from the valley of depraved habitual self pleasuring but again I find nothing except for sweaty devastated loneliness and a thousand judging eyes staring back at me from the cover of a stolen Victoria's Secret catalog. I didn't take your mail Mrs. Pemberton, stop asking me that. Satan's pretty cool!"
A group of residents in Farmersville, Texas said they are prepared to put pigs' heads on spikes and pour pigs' blood on a plot of land where a Muslim cemetery will be established.
The members of the group say they object to the cemetery not because they hate Muslims, but because they will be poisoned if the cemetery becomes operational:
"When somebody dies they bury them at that time. They don't know whether they were shot, diseased or anything else. All they do is wrap them in a sheet from the grave and bury them," Troy Gosnell told the local CBS station.
Patricia Munroe voiced fears that local drinking water could be polluted.
"We used to grow onions here. We sure enough don't want to be growing bodies," said another resident, Mont Hendrick.
The Farmersville city council will meet and decide whether or not to move forward with the plan. Read the rest
For seven year Disney World segregated postal carrier Gurdit Singh from visitors and other staff members because his facial hair and turban violated the resort's "Disney look" policy. But thanks to the efforts of the ACLU and the Sikh Coalition, Disney has decided its a small world, after all.
Read the rest
In a letter to Disney, Sikh Coalition and American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said the segregation relegated Singh to a mail route that had a greater workload than other routes.
It created animosity among his co-workers because he could not assist in operating other routes and it precluded his opportunities for professional advancement.
Following the intervention by Sikh Coalition and ACLU, Walt Disney World finally reversed its decision and granted Singh a religious accommodation.
Singh will no longer be kept hidden from public view of Disney visitors because of his turban and beard, and he will be permitted to run all mail routes just like every other mail carrier, Sikh Coalition said.
The IRS has incorporated an Indianapolis marijuana-smoking church as a tax-exempt religious organization. Donors to the church can now deduct contributions on their taxes.

The statue is a direct response to the state's installation of a Ten Commandments monument outside the Capitol in 2012. State Representative Mike Ritze paid for the controversial statue with his own money, and therefore it was considered a donation and OK to place on government property. Following that line of reasoning, the Satanic Temple submitted a formal application for their monument.
I was offered an early peek at the work in progress by Temple spokesperson Lucien Greaves. Greaves told me he has received numerous threats from people who want to attack the sculpture, but that he "wouldn't expect these outraged and nearly insensible reactionaries to actually know how to assault a bronze monument without severely hurting themselves in the process." Still, he's not taking any chances. The Temple is building a mold of the sculpture so they can pop these things out like evil, terribly expensive action figures whenever they need a new one.

Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama speaks during a teaching session on the first day of the Kalachakra festival in the eastern Indian city of Bodhgaya January 1, 2012. The Kalachakra is a 10-day festival comprising Buddha teachings and meditations, taking place at Bodhgaya where Buddha is said to have gained enlightenment. REUTERS/Jitendra Prakash
Ed Wong in the New York Times writes about reports that hundreds of Tibetan Buddhists who attended the Kalachakra ceremony in January in India have been detained without charge by Chinese security officers upon returning to China-controlled Tibet.
This is the first time that the Chinese authorities have detained large numbers of Tibetan pilgrims returning from the ceremony, held regularly in India among other places. Many of the pilgrims are elderly and have been detained for more than two months in central Tibet, or what China calls the Tibet Autonomous Region. The detainees are being interrogated and undergoing patriotic re-education classes, and have been ordered to denounce the Dalai Lama, who presided over the ceremony, known as the Kalachakra, say people who have researched the detentions. The detainees are being held at hotels, schools and military training centers or bases; some are being forced to pay for their lodging and meals.
Full story is here (via NgawangYonten).
Meanwhile, the desperate protest-suicides continue. 33 Tibetans have self-immolated in protest of Chinese rule since 2009, according to the Tibetan government in exile. And on April 8, a 26 year old Tibetan man in India jumped to his death in the river Ganges, a few days after texting to a friend, "It is my personal decision... Read the rest

The XML file (2 MB) can be mailed on request.
Then I tried to import the file into my test site (another wordpress installation) which is in the snbchf.com/test/ directory.
It just imported 1 post, but duplicated the images of this post about 500 times, creating about 250 MB of duplicated images (!!), which then let my backWPup severely struggle.
Then I tested the same on a 3.3.2. installation, snbchf.com/TEST332, but the same behaviour.

informal settlements
The "starchitect" of the poor: the keys to Alejandro Aravena's work
Pritzker Prize winner Alejandro Aravena's Elemental firm designed the "half a good house", which includes gaps between the houses for residents to fill according to their own needs.
The problem is that most cities are not prepared to absorb these numbers. The tragic result is chaos, inequality and environmental damage. One clear manifestation of the mismatch between people's demand for opportunities to prosper and the inability of cities to maximize the benefits of agglomeration while minimizing the costs of congestion is the omnipresence of slums throughout the world. Today, one billion people live in slums; worse still, many of those settlements are in areas highly vulnerable to natural disasters. By 2030, this figure is expected to double.
To absorb this ever-increasing demand for affordable urban housing, would require creating, in effect, a new city capable of housing 1 million people – every week during the next 15 years. Governments are already overwhelmed. The private solution of reducing the size of dwellings and relocating them to the peripheries of cities has produced economic and social segregation, which has become a ticking bomb for unrest.
During the past 12 years, the Chilean architect, Alejandro Aravena, 48, has offered solutions to the global housing crisis that are so creative, speedy, budget-conscious and scalable that he has been awarded the 2016 Pritzker Prize, considered the Nobel for architecture. His work—and the prize—challenge architects to envision innovative buildings not just for businesses and other wealthy clients but for all the people.

I'm writing at the end of a long, dusty mission, after numerous plane, train and car journeys. In fact, 1/7th of my time has been spent on being transported from one city to the next; this gave me plenty of time to marvel at the diversity in city structures.
The first stop was Kiel, Germany, where I spent a few hurried days with academics, government officials, private companies and journalists, discussing solutions for pressing problems in trade and clusters and their impact on poverty and inequality. A city of around 280,000 residents, Kiel is small, about as dense as Dublin, and well-linked with the rest of Germany and Europe. It is one of multiple core-municipalities that form a system of cities around Hamburg along with Lübeck, Bremen etc. The train from the airport was relatively painless, and travel within Kiel (to shop for fresh bread and herring) consisted mostly of short walks.

Aramco Said to Give Drake & Scull Saudi Contract
Saudi Aramco, the world's largest state-owned oil company, agreed in principle to award Drake & Scull International a construction contract for commercial buildings at a new energy research complex in Saudi Arabia, two people with knowledge of the deal said.
The King Abdullah Petroleum Studies and Research Center, or Kapsarc, includes energy and environment research centers, conference and education centers, a library and a housing complex. The project, located in the capital Riyadh, was designed by architect Zaha Hadid. The two people declined to be identified because the contract has yet to be signed.
"We are bidding for the project, but no contract has been signed," Zaina Tabari, chief corporate affairs officer of the Dubai-based construction-engineering contractor, said yesterday. "We are in the final stages of negotiations."
Construction companies in Dubai are searching for work outside the emirate after the global credit crisis led to the cancellation of half the planned projects. Property prices slumped by almost 60 percent since their peak in mid-2008, according to an estimate from Ahmed Badr, an analyst at Credit Suisse Group AG.
Drake & Scull closed 0.9 percent higher at 1.08 dirham. The shares have gained 3.9 percent this month after rising almost 16 percent in 2010, giving the company a market value of 2.4 billion dirhams ($650 million).
Tabari declined to comment on the value of the contract or Drake & Scull's bid. Aramco also declined to comment on the project.
'A Positive'
"It's a positive to see that they are being awarded more projects in Saudi," said Majed Azzam, a real-estate analyst at Alembic HC Securities in Dubai with an "overweight" rating on the stock. "Securing this contract would increase their backlog sustainably and validate their expansion in Saudi."
Drake & Scull submitted a bid to build commercial buildings for the project in October, MEED magazine reported in November. Turkey's Baytur Construction & Contracting Co., El-Seif Engineering & Contracting and Saudi Oger also bid, MEED said.
In May, Saudi Aramco awarded South Korea's SK Engineering & Construction Co. a $506 million contract to build the residential buildings at Kapsarc, MEED said.
Drake & Scull said on Nov. 9 that it would be making an acquisition in Saudi Arabia, though it hasn't yet announced the transaction. That was one day after the company said it bought a 65 percent stake in a Saudi Arabian mechanical, electrical and plumbing company for 243 million riyals ($65 million).
The company formed a partnership with Al Zamil Group to establish a foothold in Saudi Arabia, where the government is spending about $400 billion on infrastructure projects in the next five years.
Drake & Scull said Dec. 21 that it had an order backlog valued at 5.5 billion dirhams at the end of September.

'Will the Older Generation Pay for Educating a Younger Generation That Looks Less Like Itself?'
The 'Times' is worried about all these minority babies.
That's what the Times wants to know, now that it's learned that white children will be in the minority in the United States by 2019. Caucasians as a whole are expected to be the majority in America until something like 2040, which leads the Gray Lady to wonder if all those old whities will bother to keep funding public schools, or something.

The SUV class is hotting up over the coming months, especially for the premium brands. We've already revealed how the new Audi Q5 could look (pictured, above), but here are the tough new rivals it has to beat:
By the time the Q5 arrives in 2016, the X3 will look a little outdated – but recent facelift has ensured it's more efficient and hi-tech than ever.
The latest version gets a fresh headlight design, bolder kidney grille, revised front and rear bumpers, tweaked side skirts and a new alloy wheel design. View the X3 in profile, though, and the subtly flared wheelarches and rising crease on the flanks are retained.
Inside, BMW has introduced a refreshed centre console, with added chrome and gloss black inserts on the lower section and on the dash. It also offers a wider variety of upholstery trim and exterior finishes than before.
Striking concept previewed first-ever SUV from Jaguar. Production model is due in 2016, based on a lightweight aluminium platform.
Although the C-X17 is officially just a design concept, prototypes have been spotted on the road, suggesting a 2016 launch – hot on the heels of the Jaguar XE – is likely.
Jaguar design director Ian Callum also hinted at how close to production the C-X17 is, saying: "We were caught out with the C-XF concept and underdelivered; we now need to show things we know we can deliver."
A new, smaller model will replace the Land Rover Freelander. It'll focus on practicality and off-road ability.
As our exclusive image shows, it will be rebranded as a baby Land Rover Discovery, and will sit below the full-size model in the line-up when it arrives in 2015.
The model shown here is a five-seater, like the current Freelander, but a stretched-wheelbase 5+2 version will also be offered for the first time. Yet while the bodywork, interior, engines and badge will be new, the underpinnings will be carried over from the current Freelander.
Image: Christian Schulte
This Mercedes SUV will be sold here for the first time when new car arrives next year, using platform and efficient engines from latest Mercedes C-Class.
Four and two-wheel-drive cars will be offered from launch, while the engine line-up should mirror that found in the new C-Class. With that in mind, expect to see a GLK 220 diesel, featuring 168bhp and fuel economy of around 70mpg and a GLK 350 powered by a 3.0-litre V6 diesel. Petrol engines could include the 1.6-litre turbo GLK 180 and the 2.0-litre GLK 200.
While the Cayenne is based on the same platform as the Audi Q7, the Porsche Macan shares its underpinnings with the Audi Q5. It's not a simple swap, though, as Porsche has tweaked all the important bits to ensure the Macan has the character that you expect from a Porsche.
Porsche is so confident in the end result it's achieved with the Macan that it's promoting the car 'the only sports car in its segment.'
It's true - the Macan is the class's best driver's car at present. Its handling has elements of the 911, plus its six-cylinder engines are punchy.

Finding on Dialects Casts New Light on the Origins of the Japanese PeopleBreaking News
Researchers studying the various dialects of Japanese have concluded that all are descended from a founding language taken to the Japanese islands about 2,200 years ago. The finding sheds new light on the origin of the Japanese people, suggesting that their language is descended from that of the rice-growing farmers who arrived in Japan from the Korean Peninsula, and not from the hunter-gatherers who first inhabited the islands some 30,000 years ago.
The result provides support for a wider picture, controversial among linguists, that the distribution of many language families today reflects the spread of agriculture in the distant past when farming populations, carrying their languages with them, grew in numbers and expanded at the expense of hunter-gatherers. Under this theory, the Indo-European family of languages, which includes English, was spread by the first farmers who expanded into Europe from the Middle East some 8,000 years ago, largely replacing the existing population of hunter-gatherers.

Skin & Hair Secret of the Ancients
Traditionally used to support the mucous membrane health of the digestive' respiratory' and urogenital systems
Omega-7: The Omega You Haven't Heard About...
Omega-3' -6' and -9. Most people have heard of these essential fatty-acids and they should already be part of your daily health routine. Omega-3 is abundant in fresh flax and fish' such as salmon. In borage and primrose you'll find Omega-6. And' in olives' Omega-9. There is broad scientific consensus that these beneficial oils help sustain and protect. But one critical Omega fatty-acid is commonly missing from the list: Omega-7.
The natural botanical source of New Chapter's® Supercritical Omega-7 oil' Sea Buckthorn' is comprised of both palmitoleic and cis-vaccenic acids and has been used in the ancient tradition for centuries to promote skin' urogenital and digestive health.
The key source of Supercritical Omega-7's lauded skin support properties comes from a specific fatty acid. Palmitoleic acid is a naturally occurring component of healthy skin and is a highly effective antioxidant providing strong anti-aging support because of its ability to rein in free radicals. A 1999 report suggested that this palmitoleic acid may help support healthy skin. This key constituent of Supercritical Omega-7 is also a strong emollient – a substance that soothes and moisturizes the skin and promotes the regeneration of tissues.
Omega-7: Traditional Skin & Membrane Support
While the benefit of Sea Buckthorn on the body's largest organ' the skin' has been widely documented in ancient texts' it also has an extensive history of traditional use in Tibet & Mongolia for the body's sensitive internal organs – in particular the mucous membranes that line the stomach/GI tract' upper respiratory tract' and vagina. The ability of this botanical to help moisturize and soothe these sensitive internal areas in addition to its external skin benefits has made it a staple of traditional herbal systems. Similar properties have been reported in various modern studies.
Modern science has determined how best to extract Sea Buckthorn's broad spectrum constituents. Supercritical Omega-7 employs a special technology called Supercritical CO2 extraction (which does not use hexane or other industrial solvents commonly used to create herbal extracts)' that delivers the beneficial components of Sea Buckthorn under extremely gentle conditions in a low heat and oxygen environment.
Omega-7 nicely complements any essential fatty- acid health regimen. The berries and seeds of this revered botanical are also a source of traditional Omega-3' -6' and -9 – making it the optimal form of essential fatty-acid supplementation' and one that everyone should consider incorporating into their skin and membrane health routine.
Benefits of Supercritical Omega 7:
- Supercritical Omegas: Supercritical Omega-7 delivers plant-sourced Palmitoleic acid' any Omega-7 fatty acid recognized as one of Nature's "good fats."
- Science and Tradition: A superfood botanical that's a staple of traditional herbal systems' Sea Buckthorn is also being researched for its many benefits.
- Full spectrum Approach: The full spectrum of beneficial compounds found in Sea Buckthorn is delivered using a supercritical extraction' whole-food approach to herbal supplementation.
- Complementary Blend: The herbs in this blend' including Calendula and Rosemary' have been carefully selected for their complementary properties.
- Pure & Potent Extracts: Our full-spectrum process extracts precious plant compounds to preserve Nature's full complexity' delivering super-pure' super-potent herbal extracts.

Mayweather, why the **** would I want him to win this bout? I call it as I see it. From an ****ytical standpoint, Floyd holds the edges in this matchup because Taylor's advantage in handspeed (which is his only advantage here by the way) is not going to nullify all of Mayweather's advantages in strategy, ring generalship, and adaptability. The fact that Taylor made Chavez look slow is completely irrelevant to how a fight with Mayweather would go down, considering they are polar opposites stylistically and Mayweather was far faster than Chavez himself. If you want to address something I write, fine. Show some ****ing manners next time.

Drinkie Pie by Snus-kunWatch

applejack daniels? notsure how effective that is
drinking makes her sane ...we are safe
So completely epic! I actually do think Pinkie would drink... lmao. I mean she wouldn't be an alcoholic or anything but.... I do think she'd have some drinks sometimes heh.
Blast these ponies, they drive each other to drink!
Oh no!
She's gone into to DRINK mode.
She's gone into to DRINK mode.
Drinkie Pinkie!
My favorite part is how relaxed she is. "Just lying in the gutter with a bottle of cheap booze. No problem." Even hitting rock bottom can't keep Pinkie's spirits down.
Pinkie Pie + booze strikes me as a bad combination. She'd probably be a weepy drunk.
Nice, I like how dirty the picture looks with the shading.
Berry Punch should be very proud of her. Rainbow Dash, on the other tough, maybe wants to steal the bottle and finish it.
Seeing as this is Pinkie, the aftermath is exponentially worse than with the average pony. It's bad enough when you have no idea where you woke up, but with a pony who can ignore the laws of physics and that pesky 4th wall at will, she could literally wake up anywhere! I foresee a human world pic coming out of this somehow...
No Pinkie, Alchol is a depressent. D:
It's Drinkie Pie! Looks like she's been hanging out with Lyra a bit too much recently!
Looks like she's been hanging out with Lyra a bit too much!

Zhejiang Huahai Pharmaceutical will develop, manufacture, and commercialize for the Chinese market four biosimilars being developed by U.S.-based Oncobiologics, as part of a partnership the companies disclosed today.
Under the partnership, the companies also agreed to establish a co-development and commercialization partnership for launching the biosimilars in more than 30 developed countries, including the U.S., the EU, Japan, Canada, and Australia. That effort will include local partners, Zhejiang Huahai and Oncobiologics said.
The companies said they will commercialize generic versions of Humira®, Rituxan®, Avastin®, and Herceptin®, with the first product set to be launched by late 2016. The nations covered by the partnership account for more than half of the more than $40 billion in combined annual sales the drugs collectively enjoyed last year.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
"This partnership is an important step toward introducing affordable, high-quality biotherapeutics to China. Huahai is thrilled to partner with Oncobiologics, which brings us excellent biologics development and manufacturing capability, and a deep knowledge of the scientific and quality requirements within the developed world," Jun Du, vice chairman and CEO of Zhejiang Huahai U.S., said in a statement. "Through this partnership, we look forward to establishing a world class biologics operation in China while also participating in the very promising biosimilars market in the developed world."
Fouded in 1989, Zhejiang Huahai produces finished dosage forms, APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients), and intermediates for both domestic and international markets. The company has a staff of 3,800, and 11 subsidiaries in the U.S. and the Chinese cities of Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Linhai.
Oncobiologics, which started in May 2011, is developing biosimilars and new biotherapeutics focused on cancer, immuno-oncology, and immunology. The company's original drugs are based on its Trident™ discovery platform, which integrates fully human, single-chain, bi-specific antibodies with HSA binding.
Pankaj Mohan, Ph.D., Oncobiologics' founder & CEO, noted in the statement that Zhejiang Huahai was the first Chinese company to receive finished product manufacturing approval from the FDA: "They are distinguished by commercial strength in China and a deep quality culture in their operations, which is essential as we partner to create a strong biologics capability there."
The deal with Zhejiang Huahai is the second biosimilar collaboration inked by Oncobiologics this year. On February 25, the company gave Viropro rights to manufacture six Oncobiologics-developed monoclonal antibody products for commercialization in more than 70 emerging market countries (excluding China). In addition to the four biosimilars announced for China, the Viropro deal included a biosimilar to Erbitux® and an undisclosed biotherapeutic.
Viropro also won exclusive commercialization rights to the six biosimilars for Malaysia, while the companies agreed to co-manage Viropro's Penang, Malaysia, Alpha Biologics biomanufacturing subsidiary.

Most annoying achievement??
Firstly i just want to say that the game developers want shot for these achievements! I have no problem with difficult achievements but when you can do something perfect and still 9 times out of ten fail due to luck, then the developers need to take a look at themselves!
I thoroughly enjoyed the game doing both the stealth and the all guns blazing play-throughs but this dlc has tainted the memory of a great game! I must have put double the amount of hours into the dlc then the game itself! Hopefully the next lot of story related dlc will bring back the enjoyment of what was such a good game?!
I was just wondering what peoples opinions on the top 3 most annoying achievements? Now that i have finally got all of them i would say they were:
1. By my hand alone
2. Headhunter
3. Daredevil
I must say i have great respect for all who has completed this DLC!
By My Hand Alone easily... been trying for about 12 hours for this achievement and I still haven't gotten it yet... The amount of times that I would make it to wave 12 and have a Tallboy kill that one enemy instantly that spawns next to it (since why would the enemies ever spawn where I place my Springrazors?):mad:
I would change the order of your choices to this:
1. By my hand alone
2. Daredevil
3. Headhunter
Just because the first 2 are so luck based.
Headhunter is a pain but that's because a headshot doesn't always register correctly.
1. Daredevil
Have yet to get one despite watching youtube videos and following guides
2. By my hand alone
Why have faction wars...it almost makes it pointless you being there
3. Headhunter
I can get every other one except for that damn guard who climbs the spiral stairs off in the distance
"By my hand..." is driving me absolutely nuts. For 2 days now I've been so close but missing due to stupid things. The most agonizing was getting to wave 12 last night using the whale tank method with what I thought was a perfect setup only to have the music box guy spawn below me... ugh.
Definitely Headhunter. Getting a headshot on that assassin that constantly walks up the stairs seemed very difficult to me. Even when I adjusted for gravity drop, it would always kill the guy and not award me with a headshot.
Daredevil would be the second hardest because it is extremely dependent on where the checkpoints spawn at. Speaking of the Bonfires challenge, getting three stars on the expert version of it was also frustratingly hard. Nothing more fun than getting sucked in by their magic when you're close to achieving three stars.
For me it was this order:
1. By my hand alone
2. Daredevil
3. Headhunter
Headhunter could have easily been the worst one of all if it weren't for the glitch in the last room that allowed you skipping the entire last set of enemies.
Definitely Daredevil for me, i spent more time and retries on that than on By My Hand Alone. I bought this game about a month ago and thought i would buy the Trials while they were on sale, i haven't even started the main game yet because i want to get the trials DLC finished first.
3 more trials to go and thankfully they are some of the easiest.
I tip my hat to all of you that have "By My hand..."
I've been trying for a solid week and I just cannot get it. Something stupid always stops me.
Arkane, "your achievement is bad and you should feel bad!"
*** Edit 4/22 ***
Holy crap!!! I just got it! What a giant pain.
I don't see all the clamor about glitches and whatnot with Headhunter. Took me about six really good tries to do it. The first time I got the guy on the stair case I got it. Pretty much every other room was a cake walk. I never had it not register a headshot.
Daredevil on the other hand was a bitch and a half to do. And currently By My Hands is giving me a headache. But oddly enough the most infuriating achievement thus far has been Time Management. It shouldn't be difficult. But holy shit did I replay Bend Time Massacre something like 100 times to get that one. I got so good at it I'm 3rd in the world on the leaderboards on 360.
Most annoying achievement? Jesus...... all of them, by far the hardest achievements I've tried to do, done about 12 hours up to now and only got 4 of them. Still I suppose you could look at like you've got your money's worth out of a DLC for a change with how many hours it takes to do it all.
Still trying for Daredevil. By My Hand Alone and Headhunter were definitely the hardest ones for me. These achievements might actually been fun to redo so many times if Dunwall City Trials wasn't so repetitive.
Void star
This has got to be the hardest and by far the most annoying purely for the bonfires 3 star expert its just ridiculous, the hardest challenge by far. Been on it 5 days now and having no luck with the assassins what so ever and that's bad news for a game that relies on luck for completing it. This DLC has totally spoilt this game.
I will have to say By my hand alone and Daredevil, head hunter is just a matter of a steady hand.
By my hand alone
I spend 3 days on it. 5 hours the first night, 6 the next one and finally 4 the following. i think i practice enough to know how to fight each enemy i master killing every one from rounds 1 to 8. managed to get untouched from rounds 1 through about 5 or 7. I will just hide and grenade the crap out of round 8. i used bend time from rounds 9 on.
Head hunter is a matter of practice as long as you can get the one guy in the spiral stairs i will have to say i got lucky.
Finally Daredevil...Jeeeez that one is the tough one but it just takes a lot of practice.
It just got to the point that you play it enough that you just are naturally good at it. once i hit the 30k marker i just quit. did not even try to go further.
Just Keep at it...Respect for those that can be up there on the top of the leaderboard and those that can 100% the trials without failure. pretty sure if i play enough i can be good too.
This was the worst most ballbusting random/hard dlc I've ever played. Getting all the achievements took like twice as long than the actual game but I'm finally finished. With that being said I'd say for me the most annoying was:
1. By my hand alone- I must have ran this 100 times before I got it. Skill only matters a little bit, the rest is spawns and locations
even if you're doing well, a weeper can get one shot like 2 seconds into a wave and you still have to manage health and mana.
2. Void Star- Bonfires Expert. I don't have to say anything about this other than the only thing that matters is where lights spawn. Getting 27-28k and getting lights in a group of 3 assassins was horrible. Burglar expert was pretty shitty too only because each try takes like 15 minutes.
3. Daredevil - You can memorize the map, you can memorize the light locations, you can memorize the trick jumps. Too bad none of that is more important that where they spawn, you only get it when its that one perfect run. I must have completed it with 5/6 like 50 times.
4. Headhunter- Actually not as bad as I thought, everything is pretty easy and consistent , just practice the stair assassin and don't make the mistake of not glitching the last room, I was stuck just on that part until I found out you can skip it.
Now to knife of dunwall.
Good luck
Definitely headhunter. The damn assassins would disappear right when I shot my fucking crossbow.

Former trooper in Indiana prisonMarch 29,2013
BURLINGTON — A former Vermont state police sergeant who pleaded guilty to padding his timesheets has been sent to an Indiana prison.
Jim Deeghan was sentenced to two years in prison in January for stealing nearly $213,000 from taxpayers.
Records show the 49-year-old Deeghan is at the Marion County Jail II in Indianapolis, which is operated by the Corrections Corp. of America under a contract with the county.
The jail has maximum, medium, minimum and work-camp sections.
Deeghan, who started his sentence in January, was first taken to the Chittenden Regional Correctional Facility in South Burlington. He was then sent to the Southeast State Correctional Facility in Springfield before the transfer.MORE IN Central Vermont

How do you manage your Eclipse installation, i.e. the basic installation, plug-ins and workspace settings with regard to consistent updates (including major ones, 3.5 => 3.6) and usage on two or more computers (desktop + notebook).
My current setup is to basically managing the installation on several installations in parallel, i.e. manually add new plug-ins I installed on one to the other, and when I haven't used one in a long time to copy the whole directory from one location to the other. For updates I usually run it about once a month to get the latest versions, major updates I do manually by downloading the basic distribution and re-installing all the plug-ins in the matching version for the new major Eclipse version.
However, this approach has some drawbacks:
- time intensive
- update inconsistencies (Update sites change location, update doesn't work because of some version inconsistency between plug-ins that requires a lot of manual fixing, etc) (this has gotten better with 3.5 but still bugs me)
- no "global" update site, I manually have to manage several locations
I tried alternatives like Yoxos for configuration management but there plug-ins were missing and / or not that well tested together as I expected.
I took a look at Idea as an IDE, the one thing I really loved was the update management: centralized and 90% of the functionality I'd be using are provided as a core that is tested and updated as one.
Thus the question: How do you manage your Eclipse installations and deal with updates?
From my experience with other Eclipse users they have at least the same problem with updates, but I haven't heard of a solution yet.

Horrendous. It's one thing to be dog friendly, but it's a whole different thing to turn up to dog hairs everywhere and find all the furniture has been chewed. If the initial impression wasn't bad enough it just got worse. Facilities were poor, apartment was unclean, not enough parking spaces for the number of guests. Definitely would NOT stay here again, they don't show you pictures of the apartments for a reason.

Studies Abroad: Salzburg, Austria Full Year Program
The Salzburg program is the oldest and most popular study abroad program at the University of Portland. The program is centered on expanding cultural, historical, and personal awareness through year-long courses in art history, German, and music, and supplemented by guided tours through France, Italy, and Greece. Salzburg itself is centrally located in Europe, making it a hub for art, music, and culture, not to mention being the birthplace of Mozart and home to the world-famous Salzburg Music Festival. The tours in the fall semester include visits to art museums and historical sites in Vienna, Reims, Paris, Versailles, and Strasbourg. The three-week spring tour includes visits to Delphi, Athens, Corinth, Olympia, Pompeii, Rome, Florence, Ravenna, and Padua.
Administrated exclusively by the University of Portland, the Salzburg program has been running since 1964. Program dates extend from Early September, 2016 to Early May, 2017, with a winter break during late December and early January. The estimated total program cost for 2016-17 is $57,125, which includes tuition, housing, insurance, fall and spring tours, excursions, and housing with meal allowance during Christmas break. It does not include airfare to Salzburg. Financial aid and work study apply to this program.
Located on the Western border of Austria, Salzburg is centrally located: only two hours from Munich, Germany and three hours from Vienna. Just South of the Austrian and Bavarian Alps, Salzburg retains a fairytale-like atmosphere with its beautiful Baroque buildings and stunning white fortress, the Festung Hohensalzburg, overlooking the city. Culturally significant as the birthplace of Mozart, the setting for the Sound of Music, and its charming Altstadt (Old Town), which has been declared a UNESCO World heritage area, Salzburg offers multiple opportunities for cultural enrichment. Other sites include palaces (such as Schloss Mirabell and Schloss Hellbrunn), museums (Haus der Natur, Salzburg Museum, Residenz Gallery), historic churches, cemeteries, convents and monasteries, (the Salzburg Cathedral, St. Peter's, the Franciscan Church), and Mozart's residence.

Re: Nook Tablet becoming hot to the touch.sygram Jun 24, 2013 6:44 PM (in response to Linda_Diane)
If it was powered off and not plugged in and it was becoming hot to the touch, I would call customer service since it's still under warranty. A replacement would most likely be a refurbished unit, nothing wrong with that though. It would still have the remainder of your warranty left on it (or 90 days, whichever is longer).
I'm not sure if anyone in one of the stores would be able to help you but it's worth a shot if you're close to one.
*I said nothing wrong with a refurb because I received one when my N1E developed the dreaded cracked bezel. The refurb worked great, I still have it.
