A great shop with a meat counter that is certified organic. Biodynamic uk 6 demeter sausages that were voted THE BEST on richard and judy tv show. Proper butchers.

This butcher does not display his certificate for processing organic meat. When asked if he has one (it is a legal requirement) he was very rude.

☞ It's the people that make it work
By webmink on May 12, 2009
"OPS4J stands for Open Participation Software for Java, and this community is trying to build a new, more open model for Open Source development, where not only the usage is Open and Free, but the Participation is Open as well. Removal of barriers, let more people in, have more fun and less politics. I have also seen Open Development as a term to describe this. Think of it as Wiki brought to Coding." -- Open source succeeded by balancing opportunity and freedom, individual priority and community cohesion. Does this approach have that balance? We'll see.
Spolsky is right, B&H is an incredible place to visit if you're in New York - a real one-of-a-kind experience. I have bought a variety of camera gear there and always been delighted both by the advice given (not always with a smile) and by the prices.

Newly-crowned IBF/WBA junior welterweight titlewinner Lamont Peterson said that he is "all for" a clash with WBO welterweight beltholder Manny Pacquiao, adding, "if I get that call, I'll be ready to go."
Rated No. 2 in his division by THE RING, the 27-year-old Peterson (30-1-1, 15 knockouts) dethroned Amir Khan (26-2, 18 KOs) by split-decision on HBO before nearly 9,000 fans at The Washington Convention Center on Dec. 10.
Click here for live round-by-round blog of Khan-Peterson.
"I'm all for it. If I get that call, I'll be ready to go. You know, it's a dream that you dream of growing up. You want to fight the best," said Peterson, a resident of Washington, D.C.'s tough South East neighborhood where he endured a homeless childhood.
"You get into the sport to fight the best. And Manny Pacquiao is definitely one of the best. So I'm anxious to see how my style matches up with him. So I'm anxious to see the income of that fight."
Click here to see the video of Peterson's comments during a recent appearance on an edition of NBC's Washington, D.C.-based news broadcast along with heavyweight prospect Seth Mitchell, where they were introduced by well-known news anchor and personality, Jim Vance, and interviewed by sports anchor Dan Hellie.
"There are no easy fights in boxing. Not at this level. You hold those titles. You represent something," said Peterson of a potential bout with Pacquiao (54-3-2, 38 KOs). "I'm ready to out there and represent what I stand for — a champion."
Over the past week or so, the call has grown louder for a potential bout between Peterson and Pacquiao, whose five-time Trainer of The Year, Freddie Roach, was the first to vocalize it during an interview with RingTV.com.
"I think that Lamont Peterson is a great opponent for Manny Pacquiao if the fight (with WBC welterweight titleholder Floyd Mayweather Jr.) does not happen," Roach told RingTV.com.
Mayweather's facing a 90-day jail sentence on Wednesday that is slated to begin on Jan. 6, a development which threatens Mayweather's targeted return to the ring of May 5 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas against an opponent to be determined, but who many have speculated was intended to be Pacquiao.
In addition, a Philippines news organization ABS-CBN correspondent reported that Pacquiao said that a fight with Mayweather "might not push because he is faced with cases" that could jeopardize Mayweather's target date.
Peterson's trainer, Barry Hunter, told RingTV.com that Peterson would rise in weight to face Pacquiao "if the opportunity is there," and Peterson does not take a rematch with Khan.
Pacquiao's advisor, Michael Koncz, officially named Peterson among those he will mention to Top Rank Inc. CEO Bob Arum as a potential rival for Pacquiao, who is coming off November's controversial majority decision over Juan Manuel Marquez.
Koncz said Peterson is among other options for Pacquiao with Arum, such as a fourth bout with Marquez, WBO junior welterweight beltholder Tim Bradley, or WBA junior middleweight titleholder Miguel Cotto.
"I'm aware of the options that we have, and then, also, Lamont Peterson is another option also. We've had some preliminary discussions, but we've not sat down, Manny and I, to discuss that in depth," said Koncz.
"I came back because Manny has instructed me to do something here in regard to future opponents, and I'll do that this coming week, so we'll see. I have to meet with Bob on some other issues too."
Peterson has been offered a career-high $1 million by Golden Boy Promotions for a rematch with Khan, who has cited poor officiating and scorecard descrepancies among the reasons he has appealed to the IBF and the WBA to overturn Peterson's victory or else to order an immediate rematch.
Peterson, who earned $650,000 to Khan's $1.1 million, has also acknowledged considering a return bout with RING No. 8-rated pound-for-pound Bradley, who scored a unanimous decision over Peterson during his failed effort to win the WBO belt in December of 2009.
On the Peterson-Khan undercard, the 29-year-old Mitchell (24-0-1, 18 KOs) , of Brandywine, Md., mercilessly unloaded several, big right hands to the jaw of Timur Ibragimov (30-4-1, 16 KOs), of Uzbekistan, forcing referee Malik Waleed to step in and protect the most seasoned opponent of Mitchell's career for a second round knockout at 2:48.
Click here for live round-by-round blog of Mitchell-Ibragimov.
Mitchell scored the first stoppage in the career of the 36-year-old Ibragimov, who was coming off a split-decision loss to former cruiserweight titleholder Jean Marc Mormeck (36-4, 22 KOs) in December that ended Ibragimov's winning streak of nine straight victories, including three stoppages.
Nicknamed, "Mayhem," Mitchell's victory was his 22nd straight and his 17th knockout during that run, sustaining his status as America's best chance at ending its heavyweight championship drought.
No U.S.-born fighter has held a heavyweight title since 2007, when Shannon Briggs briefly wore the WBO's strap. In 2006, Hasim Rahman of Baltimore held the WBC belt while the IBF title was held by Chris Byrd.
The heavyweight division is dominated by the Klitschko brothers, Wladimir Klitschko (56-3, 49 KOs) and Vitali Klitschko (43-2, 40 KOs).

American FactFinder: How does American FactFinder display the label for block level data within a subbarrio? (This applies to Puerto Rico 2010 Census Redistricting Data Summary File detailed tables only)
The 2010 Census Redistricting Data Summary File for Puerto Rico provides access to census blocks within a geographic hierarchy in two different ways:
When selecting tables that contain the block level data for either of these summary levels, American FactFinder displays the correct data for the block(s) in each geographic hierarchy, but labels the block(s) as follows:
Block, Block Group, Census Tract, County (Municipio), State (Puerto Rico)
The 750 Summary Level record is displayed in the results. Code information for Summary Level 750 is available in detailed table G001.
Users of the Redistricting Data Summary File for Puerto Rico who need the block level code information for Summary Level 755 must download the Puerto Rico Redistricting Data Summary File using the FTP site.

VIA and SiS may lose pricing edge as Nvidia MCP61S targets value desktops
Taiwan-based chipset suppliers Silicon Integrated System (SiS) and VIA Technologies will gradually lose their pricing edge in the entry-level chipset market as the Nvidia MCP61S integrated graphics processor (IGP) chipset is expected to win wider adoption with motherboard makers by providing cheaper cost with better performance, sources indicated. The all-in-one IGP chipset, which integrates both northbridge and southbridge capabilities, will target US$60-80 motherboards for the value PC segment, according to the sources.

A proposed $1.7 billion tax on sweetened beverages got a sour reception Monday at a key Sacramento hearing.
Amid outcry from business organizations, restaurant and beverage groups, grocers and more, an Assembly taxation committee effectively killed the bill. Sponsored by Assemblymember Bill Monning, D-Carmel, whose district includes parts of Santa Cruz County, it would have taxed sodas, energy drinks, sweet teas and other sugary beverages, directing the money toward youth education and obesity-prevention programs.
Monning said he was disappointed in the decision, but would continue to champion the cause. The tax, which has the support of a panoply of public health and medical groups, has now been proposed twice, failing both times to advance.
"The long term health of California's children is at risk and we must work together to avoid a future influx of chronically-ill adults into our already overstressed healthcare system," Monning said.
Opponents questioned whether the bill would alter people's eating habits, and called for parents to be more active in overseeing their children's diets.
"I think parents need to step up and they're just not," said Assemblymember Diane Harkey, R-Dana Point. "I think we need to get parents back involved rather than trying to limit consumption through a tax."
Soda and other sweetened drinks have been cited as a factor in increasing rates of heart disease, diabetes and more. Monning said sodas are being targeted because they have no nutritional value.
Sweetened beverage taxes have been explored in a handful of states, with limited results. A 2010 poll paid for by the California Center for Public Health Advocacy found that 56 percent of Californians favored the tax.
Cynthia Hawthorne, president of Santa Cruz City Schools board who has led the district's wellness committee, said she was disappointed state leaders didn't see the merit of taxing sugary drinks, especially when some of the revenue would have gone toward educating young kids about the dangers of obesity.
She didn't buy the argument that parents alone should be monitoring students' nutrition.
"That's what they used to say about cigarettes," Hawthorne said. "Sugar is dangerous to society, and is a huge part of childhood obesity. Taxing soda would have been akin to taxing cigarettes."

Hi all,
I hope you can help me out here. About three years ago I found this
wonderful diagram which put ALL disciplines together that come into play
when developing User Experience (for the web?). I think it was inspired by
the famous diagram by Jesse James.
What did it look like:
- one page with all disciplines as circles distibuted over the page
- if I remember correctly, the organization of these circles was set to the
different steps in the process (like those in JJ's diagram)
- the circles were colourful on a dark background
Anybody seen such a thing and knows where to find it?

Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith told the university student newspaper there are 12 violations pending with the NCAA and some of them could be deemed primary, not secondary, and result in major penalties.
"We've got 12 pending," Smith said. "It may turn out to be secondary, it may not."
Smith told The Lantern newspaper he's not sure how the NCAA will view the violations, which are in addition to the 46 self-reported secondary violations Smith confirmed less than a week ago.
That puts OSU athletics at a total of 58 violations since last May 30, when coach Jim Tressel resigned.
Smith said the typical range for the department is 40.
"It ranges in that area we're sitting at, in that 40 range is where we always hang," he said.
With 46 varsity sports, 350 employees and 1,000 athletes -- Smith's numbers -- the size of the athletic department contributes to the violations, the athletic director told The Lantern.
At least 11 OSU teams are cited for multiple violations and 21 of the 36 varsity sports were cited in the early report of 46 secondary violations.

Per tradition, Chrysler is bringing a slew of interesting concept cars to this year's Specialty Equipment Market Association show in Las Vegas, Nevada, but the company is also using the Vegas venue to showcase one new production car: the 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 Inaugural Edition.
As previously reported, all 2011 Challenger SRT8 models receive a little more power. The 6.1-liter Hemi V-8 was bored out to 6.4-liters, and, according to Dodge brand CEO Ralph Gilles, tuned to deliver more low-end torque than peak horsepower. Dodge rates the new engine at 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. For those keeping score, that's roughly 45 horsepower and 50 pound-feet more than what the current 6.1-liter engine cranks out.
Other changes for 2011 SRT8 cars include revived damper valving, new suspension geometry, quicker steering ratios, and an SRT-tuned hydraulic steering pump, which reportedly delivers better feel and response when compared to the last design. Exterior revisions are limited largely to new door handles, a new front splitter design, and a conspicuous lack of the brand's former rams-head logo.
To celebrate the new refinements, Dodge's crafted the 392 Inaugural Edition. Buyers will have their choice of two exterior paint schemes — Deep Water Blue with white stripes, or Bright White with Viper Blue stripes — capped off with unique 20-inch SRT wheels, quad exhaust tips, and unique 392 emblems. Inside, Inaugural cars receive unique white leather seat skins, complete with blue stitching and insert stripes, along with embroidered logos on the front headrests.
We've yet to see finalized pricing for the new Challenger SRT8 392 Inaugural Edition, but Dodge has capped production at 1492 cars. Expect Inaugural cars to command a slight price premium over standard Challenger SRT8 392 cars once both arrive at dealers nationwide later this year.

Heat exhaustion
Heat exhaustion is the body's response to an excessive loss of water and salt contained in sweat as a result of engaging in physical activity (work or exercising) in a hot environment. The body temperature may be normal or mildly elevated, but not above 104 F (40 C). It often occurs in individuals who are not accustomed to working or exercising in the heat. The symptoms may range from minor complaints to more pronounced symptoms, however the affected individual will not experience the central nervous system manifestations noted with heat stroke. Many cases of heat exhaustion can be treated outside of the hospital setting however it is important to understand that heat exhaustion can progress to heat stroke if not properly addressed in a timely fashion.
What are the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion?
Warning signs of heat exhaustion include:
- a normal or mildly elevated body temperature,
- heavy sweating,
- pallor (paleness),
- muscle cramps and muscle pain,
- fatigue,
- weakness,
- dizziness and lightheadedness,
- headache, and
- nausea.
The skin may be cool and moist. The affected individual's pulse rate may be fast, and breathing may be fast and shallow. If heat exhaustion is untreated and heat exposure continues, it may sometimes progress to heat stroke.
What is the treatment for heat exhaustion?
Cooling measures that may be effective include:
- drink cool, non-alcoholic beverages, such as water and sports drinks,
- eat salty snacks,
- rest in the shade or in an air-conditioned environment,
- take a cool shower or bath, and
- loosen or remove restrictive clothing.
Seek medical attention immediately if:
- the symptoms are severe or worsening, or
- the affected individual has serious underlying health problems (for example, heart disease or diabetes).
Otherwise, help the person cool off, and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or last longer than one hour.

NEW BEDFORD — The battle over beds at Taunton State Hospital has taken a turn in favor of keeping them in service, passing through a powerful Senate committee on the way to a full Senate vote.
The Senate Committee on Ways and Means released its budget Wednesday with funding to keep open 45 continuing care beds at the Taunton mental health facility, according to Sen. Marc Pacheco, D-Taunton. An additional 52 beds would open at Worcester Recovery Center and Hospital, bringing the total number of beds to 671 across the state.
For three straight years the governor's budget has aimed to eliminate the beds, the only ones available in the Southeast of the state. Each year Pacheco filed language to keep them in business, overriding vetoes in 2012 and 2013.
Pacheco also plans to file amendments to bring pilot programs to the Taunton hospital to address gaps in mental health services in the state.

20 000 leagues under the StevePosted by Steve Thoms at 2:36 AM
Dear Visitor # 20,000
I'm lying to you.
Truthfully, Visitor #20,000 probably rolled in around January, but this is a very rough guess because I have know way of knowing. I installed the web counter at the bottom of this post in mid-October, and that's when the numbers start.
I'm very, very sorry.
I like being the 20,000th anything.
Well, I don't like being the 20,000th person in line. Or the 20,000th person to date a particular girl.
But I do like it when balloons and flashing lights celebrate my arrival. It wasn't my planning, but I always like a party when its for something I had no idea I was doing.
I don't know if I like 20,000 Leagues under the Sea. I haven't read it.
But you're not the 20,000th visitor.
I'm so sorry. I regret lying to you.
But I'm so glad you came.
Please keep coming back.
I'll serve you waffles.
If you keep coming back, then I can hit 50,000. At which time, I will look back at this post and be fucking embarrassed at the amateurish concept.
Too late.
I'm better than this.
But it's early, and you might come at any moment.
Christ, I'm lame right now.
Don't you hate astrologers?

NAACP, Labor Leaders Visit Pittsburgh Church to Urge Congregants to Register, Activate and MobilizeSeptember 02, 2012
Groups to Redouble Efforts in State after Strict ID Law Upheld
(Pittsburgh, PA) – Today, NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous, United Steelworkers International Vice President Fred Redmond, and local activists attended Wesley Center AME Zion Church to discuss the new attacks on voting rights, what's at stake in this year's election, and the role the church plays in civic engagement.
"We in the midst of the greatest wave of legislative assaults on the right to vote in over a century," stated Benjamin Jealous. "While many states have recently seen their strict voter ID laws overturned, Pennsylvania's remains, making it much harder for citizens to vote here than in the rest of the country."
This year Pennsylvania passed a strict voter photo ID measure that could prevent nearly 800,000 eligible voters from having their votes counted on Election Day. Though the law was passed under the guise of preventing voter fraud, officials admit that there have been no examples of in-person voter fraud in the state.
"While Organized Labor has adamantly opposed the repressive Voter ID Bill that was put into law by Governor Tom Corbett and the Pennsylvania Legislature, we are committed to ensuring that every person who is legally eligible to cast a vote is allowed to do so and that there vote is counted," stated United Steelworkers International Union Vice President Vice President Fred Redmond. "We are going to educate and mobilize voters like never before to ensure that Voting Rights and Democracy are preserved."
In recent weeks, laws restricting access to the ballot have been in Florida, Wisconsin and Texas, while gubernatorial vetoes have limited similar legislation in Michigan and Virginia.
In May, the NAACP launched This is My Vote! a non-partisan 50-state electoral program in the country. The campaign will register and educate new voters, and conduct a Get Out The Vote (GOTV) campaign near Election Day. The campaign will use door-to-door canvassing, registration booths at public events and work with churches throughout the state to help attract and turn out new voters.
Founded in 1909, the NAACP is the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization. Its members throughout the United States and the world are the premier advocates for civil rights in their communities, conducting voter mobilization and monitoring equal opportunity in the public and private sectors.

Pickup guru Roosh V: "I'm a clown."
Oh, dear. Our old friend Roosh – the rapey, racist expat pickup guru – seems to be having some sort of existential crisis. In a new post titled "Men Are Nothing More Than Clowns To The Modern Woman," – yes, really – he laments the sad fact that women are no longer forced to rely on men.
There is definitely not a single woman alive in the Western world who needs a man. While in the past a woman had to put forth effort to obtain a husband who would help her survive, today she is protected by a welfare state that ensures she will never go hungry or spend one night on the street.
The HORROR!
Well, Roosh can rest easy, because, at least in the United States, his nightmare of women not going hungry or being forced to sleep on the streets is just that, a bad dream. Presumably he will be pleased to learn that lots of women (and children) go hungry. Lots of women (and children) are homeless.
Even a child she has out of wedlock from a drunken night out will not have to suffer from her mistake, and that's in spite of the fact that many nations already provide her with free contraception to compensate for her lack of judgement in selecting worthy mates.
A tad ironic coming from a dude who constantly brags about "raw dogging" it – that is, having sex without a condom – with drunk women he's just met.
Anything required for a woman's survival or pleasure can be easily achieved without her having to put forth commitment, sacrifice, or labor. She can shave her head, gain 50 pounds, and disfigure herself with tattoos yet still have many suitors to—at the minimum—have sex on demand.
Such a terrible injustice, that women Roosh finds unattractive are actually able to have sex.
Her food and shelter will be provided by a state which has embarked on an extraordinary effort to compete with men for her devotion and loyalty.
So instead of looking for women who say that they "need a man," Roosh has begun to focus on women who say that they "want a man." Unfortunately, when he's asked women if they want a man, "[o]nly in a few instances did a woman outright say yes, and these usually happened in Ukraine."
Huh. Not sure that's a real scientific poll there kiddo, as I imagine that very few women are going to answer "yes" to that question when it's asked of them by this guy:
Anyhoo, so all this has given poor old Roosh a sad. Because women who don't need men, who actually have options in their lives, are less interested in jumping into traditional long-term relationships than those with few options in life other than hooking themselves to a male provider.
And so, Roosh has sadly concluded, the typical young women of today
will treat you as a distraction to her more important job, girls' nights out, and social networking validation happy time. Men have become an utterly replaceable and expendable commodity in a girl's life. Her interest in a man is not unlike her interest in a new television show or Apple product … .
Huh. Or perhaps this is because you're dating women at least a decade younger than you, in their early 20s, and this is how people in their early 20s often approach dating?
When I look at myself in the mirror, I don't see a man who has improved himself over the years to be the best that his genes allow—I see a glittery skirt that a girl encounters in the mall.
You see a what now?
Is the skirt too expensive or is it on sale? Is there only one left of her size or is the rack full of them? Does she already have something similar or is it totally novel? Does her friends think it's cute or just alright? After trying it on, does it flatter her body or make her look fat?
Dude, this metaphor really isn't working for you.
We are like glittery pieces of fashion to women—items that she truly doesn't need. Not only has she already collected so many of them, but she can easily obtain more within walking distance from where she lives. She can even browse online from home while in her pajamas through a nearly unlimited selection.
Oh no! WOMEN HAVE CHOICES!
We are not men in the traditional sense—we are clowns.
Well, some men are.
With our tight game we have to be entertainers who create drama and excitement in a girl's life, just long enough so that she spreads her legs and makes sexy noises, and even though she did commit such an intimate act with us, she will soon lose interest or simply get bored, and then move on to the next shiny cock that catches her eye.
Gosh, who would imagine that the women you have one-night-stands with after meeting them in a bar would treat you like a one-night-stand?
Also, if your penis is actually shiny, you might want to check with your doctor about that.
The other side of this coin is that we no longer need women. We don't need them to maintain our home or cook good meals for us. We don't need them in an age where having children is no longer important or valued.
That is true. Men are not incapable of cooking. I can even manage a grilled cheese sandwich once in a while. And, no, you're not obligated to have kids. Heck, as a man you can get away with not having kids and not even have to take a lot of shit about it.
Whatever natural connection that once existed between the sexes has now been severed. Neither sex needs each other so we dedicate ourselves to corporations, entertainment, and base pleasures instead, and this is a great tragedy that most people believe is a sign of progress, a cause for celebration.
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha.
I think Roosh think's he's had some sort of profound insight here. All because the 22-year-old women he spends his life pursuing don't seem interested in properly genuflecting to him as a real man.
For the next girl I meet, I'm not going to ask her if she needs a man, because I know she doesn't. Instead I will simply ask her if she wants a man, and if the answer leans yes, I will perform like the good clown I am so that she is entertained enough to have sex with me. Either she or I will eventually get bored and the relationship will end. Then I will simply repeat my performance on a someone new, because I'm a skilled clown, and that's exactly what women today want.
You do that, Roosh, honey. Just try to make sure she's actually sober enough to consent to your "performance" first. I know you have a little trouble with that.
Here's a little video for Roosh to watch the next time he's feeling down.

Off topic: has anyone seen the amazing atheists response to Ban Bossy?
No. Is it anything not predictable?
So I just finished reading the Handmaid's Tale, because what else am I going to do on a Tuesday (Although really, I just wanted a short break from working on my time machine) and it keeps occurring to me that all those jokes about how the MRA and PUA really seem to just want to live in that world is… pretty much spot on (at least very specifically that fun bit with "Well, according to the stats, the marriage rate was plummeting, so we went ahead and set up an oppressive theocracy! Yay for proactive problem solving, now let's play more scrabble)
Kyriarchy theory is racist! Pick-Up Guru's complaining about women being available for casual sex! You must pass endless shittests to sleep with those women who are also sluts you must shame for endlessly sleeping with everyone! And keeping all of the above in mind will help you fight the communist menace!
God the MRA mindset is odd. I've never quite encountered hate on such a banal yet complex level before.
I live in Japan and there are people going out, having kids and getting married. Interestingly, all the families I personally know have one or two kids. I walk past streams of kids (going to school/daycare) on the way to work … so there are kids … at least in my bit of Tokyo.
I do think married mums have it tough here though. While my collegues don't openly complain (as it is seen to be rude) from comments, it seems that my collegues that are married and mums do the lion's share of the childcare/housework. If people don't want to put up with all the extra work (and so have no or fewer kids) I don't blame them.
In terms of japanese immigration policy, I don't see that changing any time soon. For example, the government had a policy aimed at trying to get people who were ethnically japanese (but born elsewhere) to leave and not come back.😦
(I can't remember how to link websites so the above is plain text)
I love these idiots talking about civilization collapsing.
You know what happens to the people when a civilization collapses? Nothing. They keep living their lives like they always have. There's a reason the languages spoken on the yucatan penninusla are all Mayan- because when the Mayan civilization "collapsed" everyone just moved.
I can't remember where I read it, but I remember a sci fi short story where civilization collapses and nobody notices. The electricity turns back on after a couple days, because all the engineers have nothing better to do than keep going to work. In short, everyone just keeps doing their thing, which is what actually makes civilization happen.
I'm laaaaaaate because y'all move threads FAST here!
Anyway, as awful as the whole "women should need a man" thing is, I think asking "Do you want a man?" reveals way more about how this asshole sees women than even he knows.
If I were asked that, my response would be basically "Uh…????" because I don't want "a man" as though anything man-shaped would be fine. Do I want a partner? Do I want someone funny? Do I want a co-parent? Do I want someone who shares my values? Do I want someone with whom I have enough common interests to share, and enough different interests to maintain an interesting conversational life?
Having a great partner is better than not having a great partner (for people who want partners, natch), but having no partner is way better than having a shitty one. The question is dumb. I don't see men as interchangeable. Luckily, I don't need one either, so I can avoid the ones who see women as interchangeable.
My husband and I are raising two children. My younger sister and her husband are raising no children. Of my six siblings, the ones who went to college (however defined) have not reproduced; the ones who did not, have. Higher education is a contraceptive!
Minor point, pardon the pun. My father's VA disability benefits included extra payment for every minor child he and my mother were supporting. Without that, they probably would not have had seven. As number six, I am personally grateful for that.
Also, demographic timebomb! Ha! Do people ever look back in history further than 1955?! I suppose not. Human population is higher than it has EVER been, and still growing, and people are worried that we are under-reproducing!
Yeah that is because overall human population growth is irrelevant to demographic problems in single countries. If Africa and most of Asia have growing populations is causally totally disconnected from the situation in European countries or Japan. It is entirely possible that overpopulation is a problem on the global level, yet that falling population numbers are a problem in single countries. In fact that is what we're currently seeing.
I agree entirely with "live and let live", but that doesn't mean one shouldn't recognize that falling populations are in fact a problem on various countries' national levels.
Prolly already mentioned, but maybe interesting to Manboobzers:
I'm now seeing a wolf deity saying "I am alpha and omega."
RE: RandomPoster
No wonder why heterosexual (non-open)marriage is apparently dying in the West today.
…but homosexual marriage apparently has nothing to do with sharing responsibilities? What?
Yeah, homosexual marriage. But by and large, they don't breed.
Some of us do. Some of us adopt. There is this amazing invention you see, called bisexuals. My husband is one. Also, we have SIX BILLION PEOPLE on this planet. Humanity is in no danger of going extinct.
the rise of single-parent families (ex. inner-city ghettos).
Wait, wait, so you want people to breed more… but only with two parents, and DEFINITELY not with polyamory, because… reasons?
Okay guys, which one of you decided to play an April Fool's Joke on me? Where's the camera?
RE: zoon echon logon
Regardless, the US doesn't need to worry about it because we have a steady stream of young, productive, fertile immigrants.
Please tell me you didn't intend this to be as creepy as it sounds.
RE: Octo
And shrinking populations *are* a problem, especially if it happens at European or Japanese rates.
Well, yeah, no shit… but you can't GROW a population forever. Eventually, a crisis will hit, and having a bajillion kids just isn't financially feasible. Populations HAVE to shrink sometimes. It's an inevitability of life. Like, I get that it can cause concern… but seriously, we can't just grow our populations forever. It's such a constant, I kinda assumed we humans had figured it out by now.

If Roosh were a clown, he' d be Gacy
Hello again, been staying away from MRAs for, well, the obvious reasons.
But I was struck by how clearly this post illustrates how MRAs are NOT about human rights. The desires of MRAs are contradictory and actually are detrimental to the welfare of men and boys:
– they want the right to force someone to carry a pregnancy to term because "it's their DNA too" but also the ability to back out of their parental responsibilities,
– they want the right to essentially abandon their children to be raised by women but at the same time virulently HATE single mothers and the fact that, due to the fact that their fathers never cared enough to raise them, their children don't unconditionally idolize them (their mothers turn them against their fathers!)
– they want women to be financially dependent on them for their entire lives but then also want to right to toss the women they financially ham-stringed out the window without a penny
– they love to derail discussions about sexual violence against women by reminding us that men can be sexually assaulted too (as if we could forget) but then also want everyone to shut up about rape and give all rapists the benefit of the doubt
They aren't working against a system of inequality against men, they are campaigning for the ability to choose when women are allowed to have sex and with who, get pregnant, have an abortion, have a job, initiate a divorce, etc. The only thing that is consistent in MRA logic is their desire to control and hurt women without consequences.
Well, yeah, no shit… but you can't GROW a population forever. Eventually, a crisis will hit, and having a bajillion kids just isn't financially feasible. Populations HAVE to shrink sometimes. It's an inevitability of life. Like, I get that it can cause concern… but seriously, we can't just grow our populations forever. It's such a constant, I kinda assumed we humans had figured it out by now.
But at least for now, at current levels of population and prosperity, population growth would still be financially feasible in European countries, and in fact beneficial. I mean, we're talking about a continent with rapidly shrinking population numbers if it were not for immigration, so it's not like I'm hoping for a population boom here. But slight population growth, something above zero, say 0.1% or 0.2% population growth, yeah, that would be ideal. Or at least stagnation around 0.0%.
But that's kinda off topic. My original point was that if you want population growth, as Roosh apparently does, then in industrialized countries reactionary gender policies won't do the trick. Not only are such policies backwards and completely unethical – they aren't even helping the "problem" (if you see it as a problem), in fact they're making it worse! They're *both* unethical and unpragmatical, that was my point.
And yes, well summarized, Emmy.
Awww…the poor widdle doosh set out to use women for sex then has a sad when women use him the same way, or at the very least don't care enough to keep him around for very long.
Someone didn't pay attention in kindergarten when you learn to treat others the way you want to be treated?
Also how sad can a person be to want to force half the population to be dependant on you for survival? She could care less about you, she's only there so she doesn't die in the street. Healthy people want relationships with people who WANT to be there. Not because they have to. Being someone's last option because they have no other choice is just…ugh. No. I'd rather be alone forever.
But seeing as how doosh doesn't give a rat's ass about consent, its not surprising he wants to force women's lives to depend on him and other revolting shits like himself. And no, men are definitely not clowns. Just him and all the other manosphere dwellers and nasty misogynists that frequently stink up the internet.
Yes, there are economic reasons to favor population growth in various developed countries, and serious economic problems might arise if we don't have "enough" children here. But environmentally, over-population IS a problem, and it's the WESTERN world that mainly use up all the resources and pollute the atmosphere. It's us having more children that destroys the environment most of all.
It's a common belief that the environment suffers from all these brown people having so many babies in southern countries, but it's us northern whities with all our money that really use up the planet's resources. This is not controversial among people who know anything about anything, although our politicians like to pretend that we're way more environmentally friendly than is actually the case (by, for instance, only counting carbon dioxide emissions that arise from within our countries borders, while ignoring the emissions from the production in other countries of all the stuff we consume).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_ecological_footprint (note that the top countries have very few citizens – in these countries, only the upperclass has citizenship). Basically, the more money people have, the more they fuck up the environment. That's still true even if they drive hybrid cars, recycle garbage and whatever.
My theory about Roosh is that he really does need validation from women, and has built his whole life around getting it in his own twisted way. It explains why he's so mad about "sluts" despite their apparent affinity for one another: a woman who's just looking to get laid might just has easily have gone home with a different man, and might not have any particular interest in Roosh as a person. But if he can get a woman who wouldn't otherwise be interested into bed with him, he can pretend she chose him, and maybe even likes him. He can pretend there's something special about him.
All of which would almost be sad if, as others have said, he wasn't applying such blatant double standards to his own behavior. He treats women like walking vaginas, but the thought of a woman treating him as a walking erection fills him with rage.
I alternate between feeling sorry for him and hating him. It's gotta be hard to be so full of self-doubt and self-loathing (as someone who struggles with those things, I understand this all too well), but I can only spare so much sympathy for a multiple rapist, especially one who's proud of it.
Enh, I hate myself too sometimes. If that is indeed the case with Roosh (and I'm not sure I believe it), then I can write him off as an example how if you hate yourself enough, that hate will spill over on everyone around you as well.
Bravo! The big, strong gamer has had a mirror held up to his face only to discover that, not only is he not a king, nor even a clown as a clown provides entertainment, he is merely a spoiled, impotent little child angry that he's finally had to learn that he's never actually been the center of the universe.

Basic Statistics & Probability
At a Glance - Mean, Median, Mode & Range
The most commonly used statistic is the average, or finding where the middle of the data lies. There are three ways to measure the average: the mean, median, and mode.
Why three ways? Good question. Each will give you a different way of looking at the numbers; depending on the question you're trying to answer (or the argument you're trying to make), any of the three could prove the most useful.
The mean is the most commonly used measure of finding the average. (In fact, in everyday language, people often use the word "average" simply to mean, um, "mean"). Finding the mean is simple: just add up all the numbers in a data set and divide by the number of data entries.
The median is the middle number in a data set. However, the data must be in numerical order (least to greatest or greatest to least) before finding this average. If the middle number lies between two numbers, find the mean of those two numbers (add them together and divide by 2).
The mode is probably the least common way of finding the average, and in most cases is the least useful. To find the mode, just look for the number that occurs the most. There can be more than one mode, or none at all.
Finally there is the range. The range is NOT a measure of the average; however, it is often taught along with averages because it's another helpful way to measure a set of data. The range measures the "spread" of the data, how far apart the smallest and largest values are. To find the range, subtract the smallest value in the data set from the largest.
This will all make a lot more sense with some real examples. For our social networking survey, we found the mean, median, and range for the amount of time each group spends on social networking sites per day.
|Time Spent Social Networking
As we predicted, on average girls spend at least one hour a day more on these sites than boys. Both the mean and median for the girls was significantly higher.
This Week on Prancing with the B-List Celebrities
Here are the contestants' scores on this week's episode of our favorite show, Prancing with the B-List Celebrities:
|Evan L
|Nicole S
|Pamela A
|Chad O
|Erin A
|Jake P
|Niecy N
|Kate G
Now, let's find the three averages and the range for the contestants' scores.
|How to Find
|Add all the scores and divide by 8, the number of contestants. The mean is 42.25.
|First put the scores in order, then find the middle value. In this set, the middle value lies between 44 and 39, so add these middle numbers together and divide by 2. The median is 41.5.
|No mode
|No score occurs more than once, so there is no mode for this data set.
|Subtract the smallest score from the largest. The range is 20 points.
For this data set, there are really only two measures of the average, since there is not a mode. Both the mean and median could be used to describe the average. If you were Evan, would you rather call out the mean or the median? What if you were Kate?
Look Out: the range of a data set does NOT measure the average of the data.
Example 1
These are the scores from last week's geometry test:
90, 94, 53, 68, 79, 84, 87, 72, 70, 69, 65, 89, 85, 83, 72
You earned a score of 72. Your mom asks you how you did on the test compared to the rest of the class. Calculate the three measures of the average, and decide what to tell your mom.
Example 2
These are the top ten final scores for the combined results of the Ladies' Figure Skating event at the 2010 Winter Olympics:
Yu-Na Kim of South Korea shattered the world record with a score 18 points higher than the previous record. How would the mean and median of this group change if we left out her score?
Example 3
On your first four math tests you earned a 85, 80, 95, and a 65 (hey, anyone can have a bad day). What must you earn on your next test to have a mean score of at least 80?

What are peanut allergy symptoms and signs? How do physicians diagnose a peanut allergy?
The most important step in the diagnosis of peanut allergy is a detailed history. A good history may essentially make the diagnosis of a peanut allergy. Important factors for a suggestive history of peanut allergy include the following:
Timing of symptoms: The majority of reactions occur within 20 minutes, with nearly all reactions occurring within two hours of exposure to peanuts.
Types of peanut allergy symptoms: About 80% to 90% of reactions involve skin manifestations such as
- a rash, including hives,
- redness,
- itching.
Nevertheless, reactions can occur in the absence of a rash, and these reactions may be the most severe. Other common signs and symptoms involve the
- respiratory system (difficulty breathing, coughing, wheezing),
- gastrointestinal system (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea),
- cardiovascular system (increased heart rate, decreased blood pressure),
- neurological system (lightheadedness, passing out),
- even changes in behavior, especially in children.
Consistency: Reactions should consistently occur with every peanut exposure.
Following the history, the skin prick test (SPT) is generally the test of choice in making a diagnosis of peanut allergy. It is very important to be aware that a positive SPT alone does not make the diagnosis of peanut allergy. Of note, many individuals with a positive SPT to peanut will not be peanut allergic. The usefulness of a peanut SPT increases as the size of the reaction increases. Sometimes, SPT results are inconclusive and may be followed up with a blood test known as peanut specific IgE levels.
Similar to the SPT, peanut-specific IgE levels must be interpreted based upon the clinical history. Undetectable peanut-specific IgE levels do not rule out the possibility of peanut allergy, with reaction rates of up to 20% being reported in individuals with undetectable peanut-specific IgE. Much like SPT, the likelihood of true peanut allergy increases with increasing levels of peanut-specific IgE.
Despite a thorough clinical history, SPT, and peanut-specific IgE levels, the diagnosis of peanut allergy may still remain in question. In these instances, a physician-supervised oral food challenge (OFC) may be indicated. In an OFC, patients are given gradually increasing amounts of peanut, usually in an allergist's office, and closely monitored for allergic symptoms. OFCs have not only been shown to significantly improve quality of life regardless of whether the challenge is passed or failed, but they have also been shown to be very safe when performed in an appropriate setting under the supervision of a physician experienced in the management of food allergy. During the diagnostic process of peanut allergy, it is also important to determine if peanut-allergic individuals are allergic to tree nuts, since up to one-third of patients with peanut allergy will also react to tree nuts.

Definition of semiosis in English:
The process of signification in language or literature.
Example sentences
- In addition to an anti-Cartesian theory of perception mentioned earlier, this move requires an updated and enriched non-representational view of language and semiosis, together with a concept of 'sensory act'.
- In this paper, I will try to show that these contributions fail to articulate an adequate concept of embodied personhood for anthropology because they presuppose impoverished notions of semiosis and language.
- The second tendency is represented by the large number of works that draw their inspiration from a radical questioning of the structural principles defining semiosis.
Early 20th century: from Greek sēmeiosis '(inference from) a sign'.

Honda Unveils Solar Hydrogen Station
- Jan 27, 2010 10:07 PM EST
- [num] Comments
Honda has unveiled a striking solar hydrogen station prototype that will let fuel cell electric vehicle owners fill up at home overnight. The integrated unit is designed to fit in a common household garage, and can produce enough hydrogen (0.5kg) via an eight-hour overnight fill to power daily commuting of up to 10,000 miles per year for the Honda FCX Clarity and other fuel cell vehicles.
Honda's prior system required separate electrolyzers and compressors in order to create high-pressure hydrogen. Honda hopes the new Solar Hydrogen Station will combine with upcoming "Smart Grid" energy systems to let users fill up without storing hydrogen and with lower CO2 emissions thanks to off-peak electrical power. The system can also export renewable electricity back to the grid during daytime peak hours. No word yet on a price or release date.

Democrats Use Ryan Budget for Attack Ads
Congressional Democrats have turned Rep. Paul Ryan's fiscal 2012 budget proposal, unveiled just two weeks ago, into campaign ad fodder.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launched radio ads attacking Mr. Ryan's proposal to overhaul Medicare in 25 Republican districts today, and an off-beat Web ad that suggests seniors will have to find alternative sources of income under the proposal.
The 30-second spot shows an elderly man running a lemonade stand, mowing the lawn (while also pushing a walker) and working as an exotic dancer.
"Did someone call the fire department?" the man, dressed as a firefighter, asks at the door to a bachelorette party, "Because it's about to get hot in here." Next thing you know, he's dancing in his undershirt.
House Republicans made a notable political gamble last week when they passed the Ryan budget for fiscal 2012, which aims to cut $5.8 trillion in federal spending over the next decade. Mr. Ryan's proposal would end the current Medicare program for people born in 1957 and after. Rather than paying for seniors' medical costs outright, the government would help retired people purchase private health insurance through an exchange.
Many see current Medicare spending as unsustainable, but Mr. Ryan's plan would likely raise out-of-pocket costs and limit coverage for Americans. Democrats have bet that won't play well with seniors, some of the most reliable voters in the U.S.
Mr. Ryan, chairman of the House Budget committee, has conceded his proposal stands no chance in the Democratic-led Senate. Still, he says voters will respect his party offered a concrete plan to trim the federal deficit.
The DCCC declined to say how much they're spending on the endeavor.
The radio ads target the following Republicans:
–Reps. Rick Crawford and Tim Griffin (Ark.) –Rep. Paul Gosar (Ariz.) –Rep. Dan Lungren (Calif.) –Rep. Scott Tipton (Colo.) –Reps. Daniel Webster, Bill Young , Vern Buchanan, Tom Rooney, Allen West and David Rivera (Fla.) –Reps. Tom Latham and Steve King (Iowa) –Rep. Bobby Schilling (Ill.) –Rep. Larry Buschon (Ind.) –Rep. Dan Benishek and Fred Upton (Mich.) –Rep. Chip Cravaack (Minn.) –Rep. Charlie Bass (N.H.) –Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle (N.Y.) –Rep. Steve Chabot (Ohio) –Rep. Kristi Noem (S.D.) –Rep. Francisco Canseco (Texas) –Reps. Paul Ryan and Sean Duffy (Wis.)
