Warm weather means summer sandals and going barefoot, but if you're like most people, your feet could use some tender loving care before making a public appearance. Taking good care of your feet is important not only for vanity's sake, but also for good health. Regular foot and nail care can prevent painful heel cracks, calluses and ingrown toenails.
Plan a relaxing and rejuvenating pedicure once a week (or every other week). You can keep feet soft and smooth in between pedicures by running a pumice stone or foot file over your heels and smoothing on a rich moisturizing cream at night after washing your feet.
Salon pedicures are a wonderful treat, but you easily can duplicate the same treatments at home, using natural, nontoxic products. The following five steps will have your feet summer-ready in about 40 minutes.
Begin your pedicure with a soothing foot soak. A warm foot bath with baking soda and borax softens calluses and makes it easier to remove rough skin. Fill a large plastic basin or foot tub with comfortably warm water. Add 1 cup of baking soda and 1/2 cup of borax and stir to dissolve. To freshen and deodorize feet, add 5 drops of lavender essential oil and 2 drops of patchouli essential oil. (For an invigorating foot bath, instead add 2 drops of peppermint essential oil and 5 drops of eucalyptus essential oil; to ease aching feet, add 5 drops of rosemary essential oil and 3 drops of lavender essential oil.) Relax, and soak your feet for 10 minutes.
After soaking, thoroughly cleanse your feet — the soles, between your toes and around your nails — with a natural bristle foot brush and a mild soap. To make a refreshing foot soap, combine 4 ounces of unscented liquid body soap with 10 drops each of rosemary essential oil, lavender essential oil and peppermint essential oil in a 4-ounce plastic bottle. Apply a small amount of soap to the foot brush and scrub your feet. Gently clean under your nails with the pointed end of an orangewood stick.
Finish your foot bath with an exfoliating scrub. In a small plastic container, mix 1 cup of Epsom salts, 2 tablespoons of almond oil and 5 drops of rosemary or lavender essential oil. Massage this mixture onto your feet, paying special attention to areas that are rough and dry. Rinse your feet in the footbath, and pat dry with a soft towel. Using a pumice stone or a foot file, gently remove rough, dry skin on the heels, sides and balls of your feet. If you have thick calluses, don't try to remove the callus all at once or you can end up with painfully sensitive feet. Instead, plan for weekly pedicure treatments — you'll have smooth feet within a month.
2 tablespoons jojoba oil
1 tablespoon shea butter
1 tablespoon grated beeswax
10 drops lavender essential oil
Combine jojoba oil, shea butter and beeswax in a small pot. Warm gently over very low heat until shea butter and beeswax melt. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in lavender essential oil. Pour the mixture into a small, widemouth glass jar and cool completely before covering. Rub a small amount of this protective butter into your cuticles and nails daily.
Rinse your feet with clean, warm water and pat dry with a clean towel. Massage a rich moisturizing cream into your feet, paying special attention to your heels and any other areas that tend to be dry. Also massage a small amount of cream into your cuticles and nails, or use the nail butter recipe on Page 18. Gently push back cuticles with the blunt end of an orangewood stick. Don't cut cuticles, and don't pry them away from the nail. Healthy cuticles protect the nailbed and keep bacteria out.
Trim your toenails straight across with a straightedge toenail clipper. To prevent ingrown toenails, don't cut them too short, and don't leave sharp corners. Using an emery board, smooth the rough edges of your nails. Follow the natural shape of your toenails, and file in one direction instead of sawing back and forth to avoid splitting and weakening nails. Finish by buffing your toenails to a natural shine with a nail buffer. Buffing your nails is an excellent alternative to toxic nail polishes and polish removers. Buffing also stimulates circulation to the nail bed and helps to create healthy, strong nails.

The pleasant fragrances of many essential oils, such as cypress, lavender and patchouli, not only freshen the feet but provide potent antimicrobial properties that eliminate odor-causing bacteria. To prevent foot odor, spray your feet daily with an aromatherapy foot spray, and dust your feet with an aromatherapy foot powder before putting on closed shoes.
4 ounces distilled witch hazel
30 drops lavender essential oil
10 drops cypress or patchouli essential oil
Combine witch hazel with essential oils in a 4-ounce spray bottle. Shake well, and spray onto your feet two or three times a day.
1/2 cup powdered arrowroot
2 tablespoons white cosmetic clay
10 drops cypress essential oil
10 drops lavender essential oil
3 drops patchouli essential oil
Mix arrowroot with clay. Add essential oils drop by drop, mixing the oils into the powder with your fingers. Store the mixture in a tightly covered container to preserve the essential oils.

Early life and education[edit]
Nadar was born in 1945 in Moolaipozhi village, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Tiruchendur in Thoothukudi district (present ), Tamil Nadu, India.

He visited Town Higher Secondary School on 8 February 2011 and generously donated computers and other equipment worth Rs. 80 lakhs. He headed as chairman of IIT Kharagpur, the elite technical institute of India till 2014.

Fifteen candidates filed to run for Naperville City Council Monday along with four who are running for mayor.
Filing of nomination forms began at 9 a.m., but candidates started lining up more than two hours in advance. Bob Hajek was first in line, and said it "felt like Disneyland, but without the kids."
All eight council seats plus the mayor's post will be on the ballot in the spring. The four highest vote-getters for the council seats will serve four-year terms, and the other four will serve two-year terms. The mayor will serve a four-year term.
Typically only a portion of the council is elected at once, but voters in recent elections decided to switch to a...

Is cheesy pizza one of your weaknesses? A must-have on your Super Bowl appetizer table?
Here's a recipe to satisfy that need for chewy, gooey and tomato-y without sabotaging your health or triggering guilt!
We've chosen a base made of whole grain polenta so even your gluten-free guests can enjoy. Then we topped with fresh tomato, low fat cheeses and herbs. Yum!
Polenta Bites
Prep time: 10 minutes | Total time: 30 minutes | Yield: 30 bites
• 1 tube of polenta (we suggest quinoa)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 to 5 Roma tomatoes
• 1/3 cup skim milk shredded mozzarella
• 1/4 cup low-fat shredded Parmesan
• 1 tablespoon dry oregano
Preheat oven to 325°. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Set aside.
Pour 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan and heat on low. Cut the polenta into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place the slices in the pan and cook each side until slightly golden brown. Place on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining the polenta slices.
Cut the tomatoes into 1/4 thick slices. Top each polenta piece with a slice of tomato. Sprinkle with cheese and oregano. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Cook's Note
Switch out cheeses and spices and challenge your taste buds -- goat cheese and Kalamata olives; a touch of sharp cheddar and bacon bits.
What would you add to your polenta pizza bites?

Update at 5:55 p.m.: Gov. Rick Perry vetoed the bill, vaguely suggesting it could hurt job creation in the state by increasing regulations and lawsuits. The Republican governor said Texas women already have recourse to the federal courts under the federal Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
"Texas' commitment to smart regulations and fair courts is a large part of why we continue to lead the nation in job creation," he said. The bill "duplicates federal law, which already allows employees who feel they have been discriminated against through compensation to file a claim with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission."
Update at 4:24 p.m.: See labor leader Becky Moeller's reaction at bottom of post.
Original item at 3:48: Leading Democratic senators on Friday said Gov. Rick Perry has vetoed a bill that would make it easier for Texas women to sue employers in state court over pay discrimination.
On Friday afternoon, the governor's press office did not respond to queries and a veto proclamation had not been posted on his website as of 3:45 p.m.
However, a spokeswoman for the bill's House author, Rep. Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston, said Perry's office notified her earlier Friday that he had vetoed the bill.
The measure, which passed the House 79-50 in April and the Senate 16-15 last month, would make state law mirror a 2009 federal law, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. Essentially, women could recover two years of compensation for discriminatory wage payments and could more easily sue because they could go to court within 180 days of any unfair paycheck. Under current law, they only may sue within 180 days of the employer's decision setting the pay. Last year, the Texas Supreme Court upheld a 180-day "statute of limitations" on when such suits may be brought.
On average, women are paid only 77 cents for every $1 earned by men, according to a 2010 study by the National Committee on Pay Equity. Proponents noted that sometimes women do not learn that they are being paid unfairly low amounts until after the 180 day period has expired.
Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth (Eric Gay/AP photo)
"Today, one man has stripped them of the ability to seek equal pay for equal work," said Senate Democratic Caucus Chairman Kirk Watson of Austin.
Fort Worth Democratic Sen. Wendy Davis, who carried the bill in the Senate, said women prefer to take equal-pay complaints before elected state judges, to be decided by Texas jurors.
"I am very surprised that Governor Perry does not see the value in it," she said. "It's a statement of his absolute disregard for the challenges that women … face in their lives."
Several business groups opposed the bill, including NFIB/Texas, the Texas Association of Business and Associated Builders and Contractors of Texas. They argued that women employees currently have plenty of opportunity to sue in federal court and that the proposed state law could open employers to significant liability, including for decisions that could be as much as 10 years old.
Davis, though, said it was "common sense." She noted it was supported by the Civil Justice League, a group that has fought against frivolous lawsuits. She and Watson linked the veto of Thompson's bill to Perry's decision to add bills to restrict abortion to the agenda of the current special session.
"It adds insult to injury," Davis said of the veto and the rush to pass anti-abortion bills.
Watson spoke of "a political war" and said that in that struggle, "women are … at best collateral damage."
Sen. Rodney Ellis, D-Houston, said passage of Thompson's bill was "a very proud moment" and both a symbolic and effective blow against sex discrimination.
"With the stroke of a pen, Governor Perry has thrown out all that hard work and ensured Texas working women are not treated equally," he said.
Texas AFL-CIO President Becky Moeller said Perry's veto is unfair to women who've been kept in the dark about pay discrimination.
"In Texas under Governor Perry, the barons of 'tort reform' are now so powerful that women who can't find out about pay discrimination as soon as it happens no longer have a chance in a rigged legal system," Moeller said. "I am confident Texas women will not give up the long-haul fight for equal pay for equal work."

Wow, didn't really expect you to read this far down. The latest iteration of the site is in open beta. It's a gentle open beta-- not in prime-time just yet. It's being hosted over at UpGuard (link) and you are more than welcome to give it a shot. Couple things:
Every rm'ed a file you needed? Of course you haven't. But I have. I got sick of it so I created a bash function. Here it is. It'll put trashed files into a $HOME/.Trash/"date" folder according to the date. I have rm aliased to it as well in my bashrc so that I still use the rm command. It'll choke if you attempt to trash a directory if that directory name is already in the Trash. This rarely happens in my case but it's easy enough to add another test and to mv the old dir if necessary.
function trash(){
if [ -z "$*" ] ; then
echo "Usage: trash filename"
DATE=$( date +%F )
[ -d "${HOME}/.Trash/${DATE}" ] || mkdir -p ${HOME}/.Trash/${DATE}
for FILE in $@ ; do
mv "${FILE}" "${HOME}/.Trash/${DATE}"
echo "${FILE} trashed!"
There is 1 alternative - vote for the best!
apt-get install trash-cli
Commandline program that allows you put folders or files in the standard KDE/Unity desktop trash.
If you can do better, submit your command here.
wouldn't ever use it personally, but I can see how it would be helpful to certain other folks who require the utility this provides.
can this be merged with nautilus' trash folder?
@alperyilmaz i don't know. not sure if Nautilus adds metadata when you use Nautilus to trash something. I don't use a DE or X ( I ssh into a server to perform chemistry research ) so there's no way for me to test that.
I often use this instead of rm:
mv $DELME /tmp
If you have enough disk, it will be deleted in due time.
There are many analogs of this command, like a app-misc/perltrash in Gentoo or trash-cli in Debian
You should quote your variables in case you want to trash a file that has spaces in its name. Also, the "usage" message could be a little more informative.
@dennisw: for some reason commandlinefu chopping off when it orginially read "Usage: trash ". also, I don't think $@ can be put in quotations because then $@ will be seen as only one argument. best practice is simply not to use whitespace in filenames; it leads to too much drama.
dangit! it did it again! putting stuff in brackets must be seen as html or something, because it keeps on getting erased.

Recently my family moved, which means, new dentist, new doctors, new hair stylist...well I've met and have become friends with a woman in our church who is a hairdresser. Since I have my hair hi-lighted, I thought I'd give her a try. I've had her do my hair twice. The second time she did it, the treatment fried my hair *sigh* I don't know what to do about it. I got a deep conditioner, and that barely helped. Should I keep deep conditioning it? I've finally grown it out and would rather not get it cut short. Anyone know of any miracles for hair out there?

President Obama met with the leaders of the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy and Ukraine. President Obama and his European counterparts expressed solidarity with Ukraine, and pledged their continued support for its democracy. The leaders reiterated their condemnation of Russia's continued flagrant violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and agreed on the need for Russia to face increased costs for its actions. The leaders also expressed their strong support for President Poroshenko's efforts to achieve a peaceful resolution to the conflict.

fox-oct-20-09-Defense Secretary Robert Gates tells reporters aboard his plane to Tokyo that the administration cannot "sit on our hands" with regard to troop levels in Afghanistan.
Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Tuesday that the Obama administration cannot wait for the Afghan election to be resolved before making a decision on troop levels, appearing to be at odds with White House officials who have tied a decision on U.S. strategy to the resolution of the election and political stability.
Gates suggested the election would not have an immediate impact on the overall situation in the country.
He told reporters aboard his plane to Tokyo that the administration cannot "sit on our hands."
The comments come after Afghanistan's election commission ordered a runoff Nov. 7, following an inquiry that found thousands of ballots were fraudulent. President Hamid Karzai accepted the decision.
But White House officials, as well as Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., have suggested that U.S. strategy toward Afghanistan is contingent on political stability.
"Quite frankly, I think any credible person in this country would make a case that all the troops in the world will not solve a problem without a partner that is there ultimately to help," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Monday. "None of this is going to work without credible partners."
White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said over the weekend that it would be "reckless" to make a decision on troop levels without doing a "thorough analysis" of whether the U.S. has a "true partner in governing."
And Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, bluntly said it would be "irresponsible" to commit more troops before the election is resolved.
These comments drew widespread criticism from Democrats and Republicans in Congress Monday. They said a runoff is important, but that U.S. military strategy is not dependent on who's leading the country.
Obama on Tuesday praised Karzai's decision to accept the runoff.
"President Karzai's constructive actions established an important precedent for Afghanistan's new democracy," Obama said. "The Afghan Constitution and laws are strengthened by President Karzai's decision, which is in the best interests of the Afghan people."

The Bahamas are beautiful. Been to Coco Cay and Princess Cay so we knew what to expect. Was a beautiful day in the Bahamas. Good food. Bought the $12 mat, so we did not have to get a tender ticket and wait to be called, we just went right to the tender.
Took the water shuttle over to the beach. $7 pp roundtrip. Have been to St Maarten 10 times so we just wanted a low key day. Layed out on the beach.
So glad we did this excursion. Took the ferry over to Virgin Gorda, then a taxi to the Baths. Hiked down to the beaches, snorkeled. Was a beautiful day. Worth the $$ since we were only in port until 2pm and did not want to chance doing it on our own.

It's no secret that Samsung and LG have been less than enthused with each other in recent months, with Samsung having sought an injunction against the latter company last year. The competitors aren't calling a truce any time soon, and it seems things might have jumped a notch, with Samsung's display business's office in Korea being searched by Seoul police yesterday over possible tech theft.
Reports Bloomberg, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency searched Samsung's Asan-stationed display headquarters in search of documents that would indicate theft of LG's OLED display technology. According to the report, the police have an active investigation going on regarding whether LG's partners leaked the company's secrets, and, in this particular case, whether Samsung could be on the receiving end.
In response, Samsung's spokeswoman Jun Eun Sun offered a semi-smug statement: "We have no reason to steal other companies' technology, as we have the world's best OLED technology." While the initial thought is that LG is behind the search, the company's spokesman said that it didn't have any involvement in the matter. "The latest investigation is related to large-sized OLED TV panel technology, but the police have made the allegation themselves."
LG was smacked last year with theft accussations, with six of its workers being charged with stealing Samsung's OLED technology. LG saw the matter different than the legal system, claiming that the technology its employees were charged with stealing was common industry information and that no trade secrets were involved. As it currently stands, LG has trumped Samsung in the OLED television market.

We read a lot of books around here. We also spend a lot of time listening to books. Last weekend, we drove 10 hours round-trip (to see my newborn niece ) and downloaded a book from our list of History Literature for the ride.
We are, more or less, in A.D. 600 around the time the Romans have settled into the area of Great Britain. For the trip, I chose Outcast by Rosemary Sutcliff.
The trip flew by. We were mesmerized by the story. By the time we arrived, we had a hard time getting out of the car. Well, we wanted to get out of the car but we didn't want to stop listening. We had one full day with cousins before having to return, but as soon as we got back in the car, it was on.
I am not an audio learner so I tend to ignore audio options. The boys love listening to stories but I get really, really tired of reading out loud. Audible had a really good deal going on that convinced me to give it a go. I'm so glad I did.
Outcast is about a baby boy who was discovered abandoned along the British shore by the Celts. By all signs he was a despised Roman but the man who found him didn't have the heart to leave him to die. So he and his wife raised him as their own until the day came when the village had to make a choice to cast him out or let him be. The rest of the story follows Beric as he tries to find a place where he truly belongs.
This is my first time to enjoy a book by Rosemary Sutcliff. I tried reading several of her books last year during our study of Ancient History but could not get into them. When you take into account my lack of interest in historical fiction and toss in my fatigue of reading aloud, it may be that it was me and not the book. Listening to Johanna Ward read the story of Beric the Briton was so good, I may have changed my feelings about historical fiction and certainly about audio books. Maybe I'll even give those books from last year another go as an audiobook instead.

Hi, for some reason, the Shutter effect works only after after all the gallery images are loaded, which means when I click on a photo before all images are loaded, the lightbox effect doesn't work.
When I switched to thickbox, it works fine even before the images load. Is there any fix to make Shutter work before the images load?

How laws against free speech protected the cheat Armstrong
Andrew Bolt
–, Monday, January, 21, 2013, (10:16am)
Here's a warning that just the threat of legal action can stifle free speech - and true speech - if the laws are too strict:
IT MAY have taken him 13 years, but today British sports journalist and author David Walsh got the confession he thought would never come.
Disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong's interview with Oprah may have been televised in Britain at 2am but Walsh, 57, didn't miss a word.
The chief sports writer for Britain's The Sunday Times has relentlessly pursued Armstrong over his use of banned substances since the American cyclist won his first Tour de France and at that time, and for the next decade, was a lone voice in that claim against the man who was a cycling god to most.
Armstrong sued The Sunday Times and in 2006 the newspaper settled the case for more than $500,000 after spending more than $1 million in legal fees.
They quite rightly now want the money back - with interest.

Laws to temper free speech tend to cause far more harm than good, in my opinion. Take even the rise of the Nazis. The true problem was not that they were free to publish their vile propaganda, but that others were not free to damn it.
Have Your Say
The Sunday Times published their claim against Armstrong without the evidence to back it. That's why they lost the case and why Armstrong continued his lie. Had the Sunday Times produced evidence of their claim, they might have won the case and stopped Armstrong in his tracks. As it is their stupidity emboldened Armstrong and helped him continue his cheating. Newspapers lose defamation cases, not because they are brave but because they are stupid. Stupidity should not be rewarded. Are you suggesting newspapers should be free to defame people without evidence i.e. be free to publish their vile propaganda.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (10:52am)
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:30am)
Are you suggesting newspapers should be free to defame people without evidence i.e. be free to publish their vile propaganda.
Fauxfax and the ABC do this constantly, yet you don't seem to mind.
Funny that.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:47am)
Bill O Tas........ actually your are wrong about this. I suggest that you read Walsh's book Seven Deadly Sins to get the fcats and the correct account about this. They lost because the UK libel laws meant that they had to show proof that Armstrong doped. Ever wonder why Armstrong settled with them out of court???? Beacuse he didn't want to go under oath. Anyway the truth is there in the book and backed up by others, so you can find it for yourself if you want to.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (01:18pm)
Bill O you seem to have an alternate take on almost every piece Andrew publishes, and very quick out of the blocks.What an amazing researcher[s] you are.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (01:45pm)
And when was the last time the ABC was sued for defamation?
You would have more creditability if you didn't just make stuff up.
Bill's right Armstrong won because the other side just made a claim without any evidence to back it up.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (01:51pm)
Well MattR, if people are defamed by Fairfax or the ABC, they should have the right to take legal action. Oh, but wait, now suing the media is somehow being considered as an assault on freedom of speech…
Like some sensible people, I resisted the elevation of Armstrong to the status of ubermensch, but the herd mentality which is now whipping up blind hatred of the former idol is every bit as sickening as his arrogance. I note that some bitter librarian, presumably formerly an admirer, or, more correctly, a believer, has consigned Armstrong's writings to the fiction section. Isn't that brave!
Mon 21 Jan 13 (10:56am)
Mon 21 Jan 13 (01:04pm)
I agree with your sentiments DanH. Taking a wider view of this pathetic little matter, who should be the least interested in what some pedal pusher does, or does not do? What has Armstrong really given to the benefit of mankind that wasn't driven by his self interest?
Most mercanary sportspersons ( they can't be called "professional"- that's an insult to definition of a professional) have very limited skill sets… nothing when compared to competant tradesmen. Amateur sport is fine, but the mecenaries suck funds from us all and provide nothing of value.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (01:52pm)
Agree with you wholeheartedly DanH. There was always something about Lance Armstrong I could never take to. I coudn't put my finger on it, but instinctively could not trust or like him. I was really angry at the way former SDA Premier Mike Rann paid millions of dollars for him to come to Tour Down Under, but, of course refused to reveal to the taxpayers, how much he had thrown to this cheat.
Yes, like Jim Cairns never had an affair with Junie Morosi, and she successfully sued media outlets for defamation on this.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (10:57am)
... the Nazis .... always the Nazis. Godwins's law strikes again.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (10:59am)
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:14am)
You must be very young, Pat.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:02pm)
well, Pat, can you think of a more apt example? You do know that Godwin's "Law" is an artificial construct and centres on the length of online discussions, don't you? Godwin argued that, given enough time, any online discussion would inevitably raise the Nazis. The corollary, that anyone who raises the Nazis loses the argument, is not Godwin's Law, though often misquoted as such.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:04pm)
yes, the comparisons to Nazi's are inevitable. Best to keep raising the comparison lest we all become complacent. Whilst Labor/Greens aren't Nazi's, they have a totalitarian far left ideology and are slowly but surely eroding Australian rights. You, Pat of Sandy Point are displaying all the signs of apathy. People like you will be the first to squeal when you realise you've been duped ...
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:37pm)
Godwin's Law refers to the almost certain probability that any internet discussion will, at some point, feature an inappropriate comparison to Hitler, Nazis or fascism. Godwin's Law does not apply when discussing real aspects of politics in pre-war Germany and the like.
However, as Informal's Annotation explains, "as an online discussion of … authoritarianism … grows longer, the probability of an inappropriate but smug reference to Godwin's Law approaches 1."
Andrew, it would be good if you or some other brave journalist would investigate and publish a report on who and what forces it is that are trying to stamp out free speech across the Western world. It sure isn't Muslims, and it's actually not Marxists or liberals either, although those groups sometimes act in assisting it.
It's when you start asking these questions that the findings become really politically incorrect.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:01am)
As I've said elsewhere, how are the global warmists going to handle the Jews.
Call any of them a denialist and see how you go.
No amount of explaining that is not what you meant is going to cut it.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:03am)
Andrew, your last paragraph says it all - it wasn't that the Nazis were free to publish their vile propaganda, others were not free to damm it. This should be considered very carefully in connection with the Human Rights and Anti-Discrimination Bill 2012 which the Senate will debate when Parliament resumes. Free speech is seriously threatened by this Bill.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:08am)
And look at the similarities between Armstrong & Gillard. Sends a shudder down ones spine.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:11am)
Welcome Back Andrew !........
Hopefully this year will be the end of this Communist Government . I want my country back !
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:15am)
Alert - just picked up on Manly Daily website:
"Lance Armstrong books Manly Library
A JOKING notice in Manly Library stating that Lance Armstrong's books will be consigned to the fiction section has gone global.
A notice at the library states that 'All non-fiction Lance Armstrong books...will soon be moved to the fiction section".
Titles to go into the library's fiction section include Lance Armstrong: Images of a Champion, the Lance Armstrong Performance Program and Lance Armstrong: World's Greatest Champion, the notice states."
There is also The Manly Library notice.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:29am)
This might surprise many people, Hitler wasn't a Nazi. The term Nazi is for a backwoodsman in Bavaria and the Meeja labeled the National Socialists as Nazis as an insult like city folk call country folk hicks and rednecks while some country folk aren't allowed to to describe city folk the way they see them where they have parades to celebrate it, yet say it and you're in trouble.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (11:31am)
I noticed in the Today Show's Whats making news segment the proposed new anti discrimination legislation was discussed but not one mention of the change in the presumption of innocence was mentioned. Wouldn't it be unconstitutional to change the law of Innocent until proven Guilty. This is worrying because shows such as the Today show seem reticent to reveal the whole truth regarding the impact of this draconian law. Nazi Germany had the Reich Bureau which introduced similar laws but with harsher penalties, imprisonment or death.

The Nazis used the courts to sue people who criticised them during their rise to power? The things you learn on this blog!

No, they didn't bother with the courts. !
Will that be the next step of the ALP/Greens?
I reckon governments should pass laws that would jail sports cheats if they made money because of their cheating. Lance should go to jail for a decade. I know it's not murder or rape but the whole integrity of a sport has been rocked by this muppet and his mafia mates.

Andrew, it's great to have you back in the saddle. The left thinks it's winning its mad jihad to destroy Western civilisation. The thing the left fears the most is democracy, which most of the Australian news media is now trying to undermine with its unprecedented barracking for the anti-business, anti-wealth, anti-family radicals in government. It is a close-run thing as the conservatives in politics increasingly ape the zombies. They have to read your blog to be reminded what morality is. We live in dangerous times.

The law of defamation exists for a very good reason.
As you well know, truth is an absolute defence to a defamation claim. If a journalist can't support what he or she has written with evidence (which I would think for a professional writer should not be too much to ask) then it shouldn't be printed. That it was subsequently proven to be true doesn't absolve the process error in the first place.
The Armstrong case went the way it did because Walsh reported circumstantial evidence as fact.
I have found your articles about free speech over the last 18 months quite interesting because you appear to have chosen to muddy the distinction between defamation and other laws which restrict free speech. As you likely know, there are a few. Incitement to murder, to take one extreme, through to offensive language laws, censorship through ratings restrictions on TV stations, racial vilification, even treason. You ignore all such distinctions.
In so doing, you apply a binary approach to free speech (all or nothing) rather than, correctly, a spectrum one. I don't find your readers opposing this oversimplification, which I find unusual.
But I'll play by your rules and ask you a simple binary question (which I am confident will remain unanswered) – do you think the law of defamation should be abolished in totality?
Incidentally, the Sunday Times is a News Corporation paper, isn't it? It's wonderful journalism when someone who is ostensibly a news reporter states that a sister company "quite rightly" wants the money back without disclosing the relationship. Makes you proud, I'm sure. As would the statement made by the Sunday Times that Armstrong obtained the settlement funds "by fraud". Is the Sunday Times seriously suggesting that the only reason they settled is Armstrong saying he didn't take drugs? Or is it that they knew that they couldn't establish to the appropriate standard that he did?
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:11pm)
Mon 21 Jan 13 (02:23pm)
Yes I agree that the laws of defamation exist for a reason; so that lawyers can holiday in Europe. The laws of defamation are far more onerous in Australia and Britain than say in the US. In fact the Armstrong case shows specifically why defamation rules need to be relaxed in Australia. Presently truth is protected by smartypants legal processes. As for the binary argument point, this is just your straw man argument. I detect the difference in Andrew's commentary very clearly, and you can't hide nonsense by using the word "binary". This is not your Friday dinner party discussion.
Armstrong.... remember the bigger you are the harder you fall. But to all of us out there, we have all lied, we have all cheated, and not one of us is innocent. Armstrong yes a big lie and a big cheat and it has come out for the whole world to see. So what lie or what cheating are we all hiding and never want anyone to know. So best not to to throw stones.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:13pm)
Frankly they're not entitled to "all"(some) of the money back, if they had the evidence (that stood up in a suitable court of law) back then they wouldn't have paid out.
Armstrong of course never deserved any money, but the presumption of innocence must be preserved even in the face of mediocrity. If the authorities hadn't got their act together on doping, Armstrong could have easily gone to the grave a champion and a hero to many.
On the other side of the coin, the people have to be allowed a certain amount of freedom in expression, the laws are probably "about" right with the odd exception where they were, they don't need further tinkering.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:15pm)
What an amazing piece of false equivalence. Armstrong lied, the paper called him out for it, they got sued, they lost. So what the heck has that to do with freedom of speech? By your argument a paper should be allowed to slander anyone without the offended party having recourse.
Apparently in your world of Andrew Bolt the right to free speech comes with no strings attached, such as a requirement to tell the truth.
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:29pm)
Germany and the world would have benefited if the Nazi Party newspaper and the Party itself had both been banned in the 1920s. They were banned anyway after May 1945, but it took a world war to make it possible.
Germany had a free press up to the time that Hitler took over as Chancellor, and the Nazis took full advantage of it. The problem in the early thirties was not lack of press freedom, but rather that enough people came to believe in Hitler to give him a majority, even under a free press.
The prospect of restraints on press freedom are a current issue, but they do not explain the collapse of the Weimar Republic. That example runs the other way: suppression of extremist publications in Germany would have been a jolly good thing!
Mon 21 Jan 13 (12:34pm)
Mon 21 Jan 13 (02:27pm)
One small problem with your argument Paridell. Hitler and the National Socialists never achieved a majority. They only obtained about 33 percent of the vote following the Reichstag elections in November 1933. Hitler came to power not through democracy as many believe but through political intrigue and bad foresight on the part of President von Hindenburg. In other words it was the very people who could have prevented the Nazis from coming to power who recklessly handed it to him out of political expedience and self interest.

Luther K. Grumbine must really like that old time rock and roll.
looks like Mr Grumbine is really Tom Cruise!
I don't recognize that tune.
will he have rebecca de mornay as his girlfriend?
"That Old Time Rock 'n Roll" (1978) by Bob Seger and featured in the 1983 film Risky Business, starring Tom Cruise. Since then, that iconic scene Cruise did has become a running parody done in other movies, TV shows (mostly in cartoons) and commercials.
Exploring our new home, our big cat Boots discovered he could pick up speed on the carpeted living room floor and then slide on the dining room vinyl
When I realized he was doing it on purpose the first thing I thought of was this scene with Tom Cruise
Your comment and the cartoon made me laugh.
Whoa! I didn't know he could do that!

Jason Fried comments the article [Why Startup Fails](http://www.vcdave.com/2008/05/22/why-startups-fail/) from David Feinleib.
> If the entrepreneur finds themselves in a situation they can't control it's almost certainly because they put themselves in that position — either by borrowing too much, spending too much, rushing too fast, creating a false sense of urgency, hiring the wrong people, attacking a market that doesn't exist, or not focusing on generating revenue early enough. Natural disasters are out of our control, bad business decisions are in your control.
