Anticapital Lyrics
Artist: Assück
Album: Anticapital/Blindspot +3
Productivity has become the modern embodiment of slavery. Efficiency traps laborer in the circles of exploit. Chained by human costs of prostitution and the misery it incorporates. A prison of measured time.

Starting with the wind turbinesMarch 12,2014
Starting with the wind turbines
Im all for creating energy with renewable resources. However, I dont think that Vermont is the place for these. The pictures in the paper showing a ridgeline with these turbines were very disturbing in the amount of damage done to create the access road and set them up. If we are going to keep adding them to our ridgelines and mountaintops, we should consider changing our name to the Fan Mountain State.
If we are going to destroy the views of the mountains, why not go all the way and repeal the billboard laws? At least the state could get some income from licensing them and a use tax.

Today's Devotional
Kindness and HospitalityHow are you using your God-given gifts to love and serve others?
Top Christian Music Videos
Jimmy Joy
John 11:1
It happened for the glory of God so that the Son
of God will receive glory from this (v.4).
When my friend Jimmy's cancer returned for
the fourth time, he made a choice. Though
he knew the path ahead would be difficult
(another invasive, painful surgery inside his lung), he
strove to bring glory to God. So during his week-long,
post-operative stay in the hospital, he greeted the doctors
and nurses (and anyone who entered his room) with a
smile and ever-ready discussions of God and faith. Then,
when he began to mend, he walked the halls and poked
his head into patients' rooms, ministering to them. He
spread "Jimmy joy" wherever he went.
Jimmy's journey through cancer has been inspiring
to me. He's lived out what Jesus taught us through the
sickness of one of his friends. Although Lazarus was
"very sick," Jesus told those near to Him that some good
would come from the illness. There was purpose in His
friend's pain. In fact, Jesus said, "[Lazarus' sickness]
happened for the glory of God so that the Son of God
will receive glory from this" (John 11:4).
When Jesus later entered Bethany (v.17), the people
were grieving. But Jesus pushed them toward believing.
He asked Lazarus' sister Martha if she truly believed that
He had power to raise her brother back to life and to
provide eternal life to those who trust in Him (vv.23-26).
She replied, "Lord, I have always believed You."
Then, just moments before raising Lazarus back to life,
Jesus proclaimed, "Didn't I tell you that you would see
God's glory if you believe?" (v.40). It takes true belief to
bring glory to God in your sickness and pain.
Will you choose to spread some "Jimmy joy" as you deal with the difficult
things God is allowing you to go through? If so, you'll bring glory to Him and be
a blessing to others! —Tom Felten
Check out Philippians 2:6 to see the glory
that Jesus received due to
His pain and suffering on
the cross.
What makes it hard
to bring God glory
when you're dealing
with personal pain and
sickness? How will you
strive to glorify God
through a current trial in
your life?

A Wizard of Earthsea is a young-adult fantasy novel written by the American author Ursula K. Le Guin, first published by the small press Parnassus in 1968. Set in the fictional archipelago of Earthsea, the story follows the education of a young mage named Ged who joins the school of wizardry. A Wizard of Earthsea is widely regarded as a classic of fantasy and young-adult literature and was one of the final recipients of the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award, an award that recognized outstanding children's literature.[3] Le Guin would later write five subsequent books that, together with A Wizard of Earthsea, are referred to as the Earthsea Cycle: The Tombs of Atuan (1971), The Farthest Shore (1972), Tehanu (1990), The Other Wind (2001), and Tales from Earthsea (2001).
Margaret Atwood has called A Wizard of Earthsea one of the "wellsprings" of fantasy literature,[4] illustrating Le Guin's influence within the genre. A Wizard of Earthsea has been compared to major fantasy works such as J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings[5] and L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.[6] Modern writers have credited A Wizard of Earthsea for introducing the idea of a "wizard school," which would later be made famous by the Harry Potter series of books.[5]
Early concepts for the Earthsea setting were developed in two short stories, "The Rule of Names" (1964) and "The Word of Unbinding" (1964), both published in Fantastic. These stories introduced important concepts, such as Le Guin's treatment of magic, but do not include any characters that would appear in A Wizard of Earthsea. In 1967, Herman Schein (the publisher of Parnassus Press and the husband of Ruth Robbins, the illustrator of the book)[7] asked Le Guin to try writing a book "for older kids," giving her complete freedom for the subject and the approach.[8] Drawing from her short stories, Le Guin began work on A Wizard of Earthsea. Le Guin has said that the book was in part a response to the image of wizards as ancient and wise, and to her wondering where they come from.[9]
Plot summary[edit]
The novel follows Duny, a young boy born on the island of Gont. Discovering that he has the potential to be a powerful wizard, his aunt, the village witch trains him in magic. Duny often uses his power to call birds of prey to him, earning the nickname "Sparrowhawk." When Sparrowhawk is nearly thirteen, his village is attacked by Kargish invaders. He summons a fog to conceal his village and distract the attackers, although the effort leaves him mute. Hearing of this incident the powerful mage Ogion heels Sparrowhawk and takes him as an apprentice, giving him his "true name"—Ged. Ogion tries to teach Ged about the "balance," the concept that magic can upset the natural order of the world if used improperly. In an attempt to impress a girl he meets, Ged searches Ogion's spell-books and inadvertently summons a strange shadow, which is banished by Ogion. Sensing that Ged is impatient to learn wizardry faster than Ogion is willing to teach, he offers to allow Ged to attend a school for wizards on the island of Roke.
At the school, Ged's skills inspire admiration among the teachers as well as students. He befriends an older student named Vetch, but generally remains aloof from his fellows. Another student, Jasper, acts condescendingly towards Ged and provokes the latter's prickly nature. After Jasper needles Ged during a feast, Ged challenges him to a duel. He casts a powerful spell intended to raise the spirit of a dead woman, but the spell goes awry. A rip in the fabric of the world opens to the realm of the dead, and a shadow creature passes through, attacking Ged and scarring his face. The Archmage Nemmerle banishes the shadow and saves Ged's life, although it costs him his own.
Ged spends many months healing before resuming his studies. The new Archmage, Gensher, describes the shadow creature as an ancient evil that wishes to possess Ged. Gensher warns him that the creature has no name, and that only Roke's magic protects him from it. A few years later, Ged receives his wizards' staff from the school, and goes to serve the villagers of the Ninety Isles, who fear an attack from a dragon and its brood that live on the nearby island of Pendor. While attempting to save the life of a fisherman's daughter, Ged crosses the barrier to the land of the dead and learns that he is being pursued by the shadow creature. Deciding to flee from the creature, he sails to Pendor, where he kills five young dragons before threatening the old dragon with Ged's knowledge of his true name, learned on Roke. The dragon offers to tell Ged the name of the shadow creature in return for remaining unharmed, but instead Ged exacts a binding promise that the dragon and his brood will never threaten the archipelago.
Chased by the shadow, Ged travels north to the island of Osskil, hoping to seek advice from the stone of the Terrenon, which is said to have the power to answer any question. On Osskil, he realises that his guide has been possessed by the shadow; fleeing in terror, Ged stumbles into the Court of Terrenon. The creature destroys his staff, but cannot penetrate into the castle. Serret, the lady of the castle, looks after Ged, and when he recovers shows him the stone of Terrenon. She tempts Ged to speak to it, claiming it can give him limitless knowledge and power. Believing the stone harbors an ancient and evil spirit, Ged refuses. When Serret again attempts to persuade him, he realizes that she and her husband Benderesk are trying to enslave him and use his power. Ged flees, and though he is pursued by Benderesk's minions he transforms into a falcon and flies away.
Ged flies back to Gont goes to Ogion, who crafts a new staff for him. Contrary to Gensher, Ogion insists that all creatures have a name, and advises Ged to confront the shadow creature. Setting sail in a small boat Ged pursues the creature across the sea until it lures him into a fog where his boat is wrecked on a reef. Ged recovers with the help of an elderly couple marooned on the island as children. When he leaves, the woman gives Ged part of a broken bracelet as a gift. Ged patches his boat with magic and escapes the island pursuing the creature into the East Reach of the Archipelago. On the island of Iffish he meets his friend Vetch, who insists on joining him. They journey east far beyond the last known lands before they finally come upon the shadow. Here Ged realizes that the shadow has always been a part of his own spirit. Naming it with his own name, he merges with the shadow creature, understanding and accepting it as part of himself, and thus healing himself.

American troops have now been engaged in military action in Libya for more than 60 days without congressional authorization, a breach of the War Powers Resolution of 1973, but President Obama said the mission was too limited to require approval. (more)

Pandora to lift monthly free listening limit ahead of Apple's launch of iTunes RadioAs Apple prepares to launch its iTunes Radio service for iOS 7, Mac and PC, popular Internet radio service Pandora is making moves to ensure that the iPhone maker doesn't crowd it out of the segment.
On Sept. 1, Pandora will lift the 40-hour-per-month limit the company has had in place on free mobile listening since March of this year, the radio service announced on Thursday. Speaking during the company's quarterly conference call, Pandora CFO Mike Herring attributed the decision to improvements in Pandora's advertising business, as well as the development of "surgical techniques" such as skip limits.
"Our investment in advertising infrastructure and implementing smart levers such as reducing song skipping and limiting mobile listening," Herring said, "have helped us drive monetization and manage content costs, as reflected by the increase in RPM and a decrease in content costs as a percentage of revenue.
"When we introduced the 40 hour mobile listening limit, we were confident that our scale over seven percent of total radio listening and Pandora's number one ranking in most major markets would allow us to take this action without impacting our key monetization initiatives in driving the disruption of the radio advertising market and driving our mobile advertising leadership."
Thursday's announcement marks the second time that Pandora has put a free listening cap in place and then lifted it. The last cap lift occurred in September 2011.
Pandora is the largest radio station in nearly every major market in America. The service is available on more than 1,000 consumer electronic devices, and roughly one-third of all new cars sold in the United States in 2013 will have access to Pandora. The service is also the third-largest generator of mobile ad revenue, following Google and Facebook.
Even while it has struggled to control music royalty expenditures, Pandora has grown to become a powerful name in the digital music business. The streaming industry has grown increasingly crowded, though, as massive tech companies including Google and Microsoft have made plays to bring their own streaming services online.
Most recently, Apple announced that it would join the fray, bringing iTunes Radio to devices running iOS 7, Macs, PCs, and Apple TV devices. Apple's option will likely launch alongside iOS 7 some time in September.
Apple's model has already been established as a threat to Pandora, given that it will be built in to all of Apple's devices and will likely feature the sort of functionality that only comes with such deep integration. iTunes Radio has already begun attracting ad buys from major brands like McDonald's, Nissan, and Pepsi.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- (Marketwired) -- 07/28/14 -- Soul and Vibe Interactive Inc. (OTCQB: SOUL), "The Company," a video, mobile, and computer games publisher, announced today that it will add J.M. Barrie's classic book, Peter Pan, to the Timeless Gems library. Peter Pan is the second expansion "book" for the Timeless Gems game. Its release will add an all-new interactive storyline and new play mechanics to the game's innovative "match-3" gameplay experience that has garnered praise from both players and the press.
Peter Pan will be released late July 2014 for all Timeless Gems platform versions. Timeless Gems was launched worldwide on Facebook, Apple's App Store, and Google Play during the first quarter of 2014. The Company launched the game's first expansion "book," Bram Stoker's Dracula, in April 2014.
"Since childhood, Peter Pan has been one of my favorite books," said Soul and Vibe's CEO and President Peter Anthony Chiodo. "Think about it... who hasn't wanted to be able to fly, travel to a hidden island, fight pirates, and visit with mermaids? As a book, Peter Pan has it all: Adventure, suspense, mystery, a touch of romance; these are all things that J.M. Barrie brilliantly packaged and presented in one the most endearing, and timeless, pieces of literature ever written. I am so proud of the work our development team has put into our Peter Pan expansion. Peter Pan's rich story and characters are a perfect fit for the diverse gameplay and inventive puzzles for which Timeless Gems, as a game, has become known. Like our depictions of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and Dracula before it, Timeless Gems' Peter Pan has really captured the heart and soul of a classic."
"Peter Pan is the best book in the Timeless Gems library to date," said Soul and Vibe's Quality Assurance Manager, Tim Moravec. "Peter Pan, as a book, features six new chapters and 37 all new puzzles. It introduces new mechanics that play to the iconic characteristics of Peter Pan, as a story. I've never before seen a "match-3" game in which you dodge cannonballs, fight pirates, and play catch with mermaids. Peter Pan carries on the tradition we started with Dracula in which you play multiple characters as the story progresses. One of my favorite things in the expansion is a sword fight you have, as Peter Pan, with Captain Hook, one of the most iconic villains of all time. In addition, Peter Pan features some other really cool surprises."
In Timeless Gems, your favorite storybooks come to life in an innovative "match-3" puzzler that's wrapped in a board game. Timeless Gems creates an innovative play experience by combining highly popular "match-3" game play with board game elements. This combination lets players experience classic stories like Peter Pan, Dracula, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in a whole new way. Playing as core characters from the classic books in the Timeless Gems library, you'll meet a colorful cast of heroes and villains. Match gems, power up, and connect and play with your friends on Facebook. The game was developed by Telos Entertainment.
Peter Pan will be the fourth book in the Timeless Gems library and the game's second expansion, following the previously released Dracula. Both Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz were released in tandem with the launch of Timeless Gems.

With so much going on in this space you could be forgiven for thinking you were always working with yesterday's technologies. So much change, so quickly. What do you do if you have to build a solution from the ground up that is expected to live in the field for at least 5-10 years? This is the challenge we faced when we looked to refresh our existing 10-year-old custom hardware stack to measure the fullness of trash cans and compactors.

WD®, a subsidiary of Western Digital Corporation (NASDAQ: WDC), and a world leader in external storage and connected home solutions, is combining two high-speed technologies to produce one of the fastest and most robust dual-storage systems ever offered. Supported by the Mac OS X operating system, the new My Book® VelociRaptor Duo dual-drive storage system becomes the ultimate storage drive for performance hungry Mac computer users and creative professionals.
My Book VelociRaptor Duo provides ultimate speed and performance with two 1 TB 10,000 RPM WD VelociRaptor drives along with two Thunderbolt ports. The 2 TB dual-drive storage system is ideal for editing high resolution video, 3D rendering, graphic design, and other demanding digital media applications. This boost in performance delivers solid state drive (SSD) -like data transfer rates of up to 400 MB/s for greater work-flow productivity. The dual-drive storage system offers RAID 0 for performance or RAID 1 for protection; and the twin Thunderbolt ports offer daisy-chaining multiple My Book VelociRaptor Duo drives and other high performance peripherals without impacting data transfer speeds or performance. The My Book VelociRaptor Duo also comes complete with a Thunderbolt cable in the box and is user-serviceable.
Photographers, graphic designers and post-production professionals can conduct several high intensity tasks such as video editing and 3D rendering, while completing other graphics-intensive projects. My Book VelociRaptor Duo customers will now have the ability to transfer 22 GB full-length HD movies in less than 65 seconds, 2000 5 MB pictures in less than 33 seconds and over 500 5 MB songs in less than 8 seconds.
"The My Book VelociRaptor Duo is the fastest and most reliable high performance consumer storage device on the market today," explains Jody Bradshaw, senior director of WD's consumer storage solutions group. "Creative professionals now have access to a super-charged storage drive that will keep pace with even the most demanding projects. Daisy-chaining multiple My Book VelociRaptor Duo devices together offers even greater speed, more capacity and flexibility."
While RAID 0 maximizes the drive's speed and capacity, RAID 1 support allows users to create a second copy of their digital content on the drive for added protection, security and peace of mind. The drive also provides a JBOD (just a bunch of disks) option for users running a Windows® operating system on a Mac.
Additional features found on the My Book VelociRaptor Duo dual-drive storage system include out-of-the-box compatibility with Apple Time Machine and HFS + Journaled for Mac computers; capability for multi-stream workflows; and a 3-year limited warranty.
Price and Availability
The My Book VelociRaptor Duo dual-drive storage system is currently available at select U.S. retailers and online at http://www.wdstore.com, starting at $899.99 MSRP USD. Additional information can be found on the WD website at http://www.wd.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=860.

To determine ring size, cut a length of string long enough to fit around your finger, wrap it around to make a ring, slip it off your finger and compare it to a sizing chart. Make sure the string ring is comfortable and comes on and off easily.Continue Reading
Using string, ribbon or thread, cut a length long enough to wrap all the way around the finger you want to measure.
Wrap the string, ribbon or thread around your finger in a circle. Secure with tape or by tying. Make sure the secured string ring can slip over your knuckle without simply falling off.
Using a chart from a company, such as Jared or Zales, compare the ring you created out of string to the circles on the chart to determine ring size. The string ring should perfectly match the circle on the size chart for the best fit.

A group of mothers of girls with high needs disabilities say there is no way they will send their daughters to a co-educational residential school in Christchurch when Nelson's Salisbury School closes at the end of the year.
Four Auckland mothers were among a group of concerned parents who travelled to Wellington yesterday to attend the High Court hearing into the closure of the school.
They say their daughters will be safer at an all-girls mainstream school, even though it might not be able to appropriately care for them, than at the Halswell Residential College in Christchurch, mixing with teenage boys with severe physical and intellectual impairments.
Education Minister Hekia Parata has said the all-girls school, which provides 24/7 residential care to high needs students, will close at the end of the year and Halswell, an all-boys facility, will be co-ed from January 27.
Kirsten Smith, Amanda Swann and Kelly Woods say their daughters, all current students at Salisbury School, will not be attending Halswell next year.
They fear for their daughters' safety, saying they don't know the difference between inappropriate and appropriate behaviour.
Smith's 13-year-old daughter once had her skirt lifted up by a group of boys but did not have the ability to know it was wrong.
"It was just a game [to her]. She doesn't understand the difference between laughing at and laughing with," she said.
"I would never risk my daughter like that," she says of the move to place the male and female students together in the same facility. "It's just not worth it."
The school's board of trustees is seeking a judicial review of Parata's decision and its lawyer, Mai Chen, yesterday presented in the High Court at Wellington "disturbing material" from Professor Freda Briggs, who undertook studies into both schools in the mid-1990s and in 2005.
Chen said Briggs' research showed many students had a history of physical and mental abuse and that nearly all boys at Halswell Residential College had experienced sexual abuse of some kind while at school.
The abuse often occurred in the toilet changing rooms or outside normal school hours.
"In other words they were opportunistic," Chen said. "Most of the boys accepted this abuse as normal sexual behaviour."
In an affidavit to the court, Parata said measures to ensure student safety at Halswell would include accommodating boys and girls in separate, secure, well-monitored villas.
The Education Ministry had also advised her it had looked for, but been unable to find, any research or evidence that had identified undue safety risks for girls with intellectual impairment in a co-ed setting, as opposed to in a single-sex setting.
"I do not accept that co-educational schools are necessarily unsafe for such learners," she said.
Ministry special education group manager Brian Coffey said there had been no reported difficulties from secondary schools and day special schools over the education of children with special needs in co-ed settings.
All of the 27 day special schools for learners with intellectual impairment were co-ed, and 73 of the 77 secondary school special needs units were in co-ed schools, he said.
Justice Robert Dobson reserved his decision, saying he hoped to be able to have it ready before Christmas.

FPL Rate Hike Headed to Florida Supreme Court
Published: Friday, February 8, 2013 at 12:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 7, 2013 at 11:59 p.m.
TALLAHASSEE | Nearly two months after regulators approved a controversial base-rate increase for Florida Power & Light, the state lawyer who represents utility customers said Thursday he will challenge the decision in the Florida Supreme Court.
State Public Counsel J.R. Kelly's office filed a notice that is the first step in appealing the rate increase approved by the Florida Public Service Commission. FPL received a $350 million increase that took effect in January and also will be able to raise rates when three new power plants start operating.
The dispute focuses on a settlement that FPL reached in August with groups of major power users. That settlement, which did not include the Office of Public Counsel, served as the basis for the rate increase approved by regulators in December.
Created by the Legislature to represent consumers statewide in utility issues, the Office of Public Counsel contends that such a settlement cannot move forward without its agreement.
Also, the August settlement between FPL and the major power users differed significantly from a base-rate proposal that the utility filed earlier in 2012. Base-rate cases are highly complex and include voluminous amounts of data and witness testimony.
Kelly said his office has argued in earlier legal proceedings that the settlement was a "new filing and required starting the clock all over again" for a rate case.

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — The National Transportation Safety Board says that insufficient route planning, a distracted pilot driver and an inadequate permitting process by the state of Washington all played a part in the Interstate 5 bridge collapse north of Seattle last year.
The four-member board voted unanimously Tuesday after a nearly two-hour hearing to issue a number of recommendations, including banning nonessential cellphone use by pilot car drivers and better warnings of low-clearance bridges, as well as lane-specific guidance for clearance on bridges.
A section of the bridge fell into the water after a truck carrying a tall load hit the bridge in Mount Vernon, about 60 miles north of Seattle. Two other vehicles fell into the river, and three people were rescued with minor injuries.
