Room 43, Studios Two and Three, EMI Studios, Abbey Road
Producer: George Martin
Engineers: Geoff Emerick, Phil McDonald
Overdubs were added to three Abbey Road songs during this session: You Never Give Me Your Money, Because and The End.
During a trial mixing session for the album's medley on 30 July 1969, the transition from You Never Give Me Your Money into Sun King had been a single held organ note.
On this day Paul McCartney brought a selection of tape loops into the studio. He had made the monaural loops at his London home using Brenell tape machines, and in the control room of Studio Three they were transferred onto four-track tape.
The effects included birds twittering, crickets chirping and bells ringing. The transitional crossfade was first attempted on 14 August but was redone on 21 August.
Meanwhile, George Harrison had arranged for his Moog synthesizer to be transported to EMI Studios, where it was set up in Room 43. A signal from the instrument could be routed into whichever studio The Beatles were working in.
A new instrument in 1969, The Beatles and the studio staff took great interest in the sounds it could produce. The first song to receive a Moog overdub was Because. Harrison played the part twice to complete the song.
The final overdub of the day was for The End. On this day it was given its first vocals, although more were added on 7 August. This second session for Because and The End took place in Studio Two from 6.30-10.45pm.

While tomorrow is April Fool's Day, energy policy is no joke. We're proud that President Obama chose to discuss his energy policy at UPS. During his visit on April 1, he'll meet with employees and check out a few of the alternative-fuel vehicles in our fleet.
A key goal of the president's plan is to limit the country's dependency on foreign oil by reducing exports by one-third. At UPS, shrinking our overall fuel consumption makes good sense for business and the environment. From 2000 to 2009, we lowered our fuel use by 3.2 million gallons while increasing the miles our drivers traveled by 77.3 million miles. UPS's fleet of nearly 2,000 alternative-fuel vehicles helped deliver those savings while also reducing overall carbon emissions.
Be sure to return to the upside blog after the president's visit to see photos and read insights from the event.

BARDSTOWN, Ky. (WKYT) - We have chilling new details in the murder of a Kentucky police officer.
Investigators revealed they believe whoever shot and killed 33-year-old Bardstown Police Officer Jason Ellis specifically targeted him.
The news comes as the community looks for ways to honor Ellis and support his wife and two young sons.
"There's no logic to this ambush," said Bill Sheckles, mayor of Bardstown.
Now determined that he was targeted, the story surrounding the shooting death of Officer Ellis isn't getting any easier to tell.
"This was, as I said, methodical, precise, set up, planned and executed in a perfect fashion unfortunately," said Chief Rick McCubbin, with the Bardstown Police Department.
But the community of Bardstown and even the state have pulled together in a way these officials never expected.
"We just want to thank everybody personally from my office," said Mayor Sheckles. "And on behalf of the police department and all of the citizens of this community, because we've had a tremendous outreach of support."
And the reward for information leading to an arrest in Ellis' murder continues to go up and is now at 32,000 dollars after a 10,000 dollar donation from the city on Tuesday.
Because of Ellis being the first Bardstown city police officer to be killed while in uniform, they are thinking of ways to honor him, one of which is to retire his K-9.
"We will probably dedicate that to the family. His young boys have grown up with the dog and on behalf of the family, that's their one last connection to the Bardstown Police Department," said Mayor Sheckles.
So as they say goodbye to Figo, they are preparing to say an even tougher goodbye to Officer Ellis starting on Wednesday.
"We have to take it one day at a time and do the best that we can," said Mayor Sheckles.
Ellis' visitation is on Wednesday from 2 to 8 p.m. at Parkway Baptist Church in Bardstown. His funeral will be 11 a.m. on Thursday also at the church.

Liverpool look set to complete a deal to sign Barcelona youngster Christian Tello as it seems the Spanish giants are prepared to sell in the summer.
The 22-year-old has been a long-term target of the Reds as they look to bolster their squad for Champions League football next season.
The attacking midfielder has seen his career stall under Tata Martino and has seen his number of La Liga starts limited to just two matches.
According to the Mirror, Tello was involved in a bust up with Martino at the weekend which was captured on TV.
And now it looks like they are ready to sell the Spaniard with a fee of £8million on the cards.
Liverpool are looking to strengthen in the summer after it seems that their title chase is all but over following a 3-3 draw away at Crystal Palace last night.
Tony Pulis' men scored three goals in 11 minutes to snatch a draw.

WorldBreaker Hulk could punch Galactus so hard that Galactus would go cry in a corner... Hulk gets stronger as he gets angrier so eventually his strength would surpass Galactus... Hulk > Doomsday. Doomsday > Galactus. Galactus > Thanos. Anyone agree?
Hulk can beat Galactus?

Nope. No matter how strong he gets Galactus would wipe him off the map.
I know, people seem to underrate Hulk to no end so I thought I'd overrate him for a change... Apparently Hulk can be beaten by characters like Batman, Juggernaut, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman... *Facepalm*

Batman? No.
Juggernaut? I old Hulk enemy, depends on how angry/strong Hulk is.
Green Lantern: Depends on how much power is in the ring, but it wouldn't be a problem with full charge.
Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman is a godlike person and is very strong. However don't know her well enough to say if she can win. I don't see it is as a clear Hulk victory.

Apparently Hulk can be beaten by characters like Batman, Juggernaut, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman... *Facepalm*Batman without prep doesn't have a chance - with prep, he will use some energy drainer combined with delta radiation and turn Hulk into Banner.
Juggernaut in full power with force fields on will crush Hulk sooner or later.
Green Lantern? You mean Hal? If he will understand, that he should get close Hulk, then he wins.
Wonder Woman? Only if she will use her eq, but it is possible , yeah.

Dude, no offense, but this is a dumb thread.
All of Earth's heroes combined couldn't stand against Galactus. They might be able to drive off a hungry/malnurished Galactus, but other than that... it's not happening.
Batman with prep? Maybe, but highly unlikely. Without prep? Bats gets smashed.
Juggernaut. Hulk's fought to a standstill with him before. Endless battle. Still, Hulk has faired better against a fully powered Juggernaut than that of Thor.
Green Lantern? No. Sooner or later, he'll get smashed unless he tries to BFR Hulk, which is easier said than done.
Wonder Woman? No, it's not gonna happen. She'll do about as well as other Marvel female powerhouses, but in the end she isn't gonna triumph.
@mk111: Lmao, I did find that amusing.
Any character can beat any character. Within the narrative you can find degrees of consistency that will validate opinions strength but yeah. Hulk can beat Galactus and Marrow can beat Hulk. Willie Lumpkin can beat Hulk, and Thor. Mole Man can beat Willie Lumpkin. So on. I mean in fiction you can have Jimi Hendrix show up and play Galactus like an actual guitar until a blue wall of rice explodes out of Galactus mouth covering the Living Tribunal until he sneezes out Supermen (infinities of Superman) and Snorks. Well provided you had consent to feature those characters. Fiction man, fiction.

Hulk fanboys.....Yes, Hulk has limitless strength. But not infinite rage. You can only get so angry, and while Hulk can get Worldbreaker strong, Fully Fed Galactus is still stronger. He'd be shot full of cosmic power before he could reach his Rage Ceiling.

The Hulk is not dependent on his own strength. Some people mistakenly think the statement "madder he gets, stronger he gets" means that Hulk is using limitless power he already has to gets unlimited power, which make no sense. Why would Hulk need to increase in power if he already has it all in the first place? Why would you grab power if you had it all already?
Hulk increases power when his body is pressed toward it physical limit, either by the pressure he or others put on him. His power activates in instance that the body is being overtaxed by it's own activity or overtaxed by other outside forces and meet those demands by growing stronger to in order to avoid death. The Hulk doesn't increase in strength just because he wants to. The act of Hulk drawing universal atomic energy into himself is only a matter of fulfilling his body's own personal need.

Hulk would probably beat Hal Jordan. His concentration with that ring of his is s***
Really?, I mean really.., how is this kind of match even allowed? Cosmic powers will destroy anything that's reliant on strength for winning it's battles, there are some things physical strength can't do to harm or kill some Entities, Hulk is strong, but his strength won't always serve him a Victory. Sorry but Hulk's more for the likes of Juggernaut, even so juggernaut is still quite a match for him, with or without the Cytorakk gem, or Trion blessed.

Actually, Hulk's rage is infinite.
@guttridgeb: I'm pretty sure there's a limit to someone's rage, how angry can you really get?, i mean if you're In-raged, that's that, how can you possibly get anymore madder then you already are?, just seems stupid IMO.

@Nightwing4: It was obviously a troll... If you actually read the other comment I said then you would understand why I posted this. Also the Hulks strength will get as strong as it needs to be to defeat his opponent... I know Hulk wouldn't be able to stand up to someone like Galactus. Also people seem to believe that the Hulk slowly becomes stronger throughout a fight because his anger is growing, but the truth in this is that the Hulk could become twice as strong within seconds... Your emotional state doesn't increase slowly it happens suddenly. The Hulk would get hit and then his strength would blow through the roof. He's much stronger than Thor, he's stronger than Trion Juggernaut when he is filled with rage (WorldBreaker), he is a very underrated character in these forums and a lot of people seem to overrate characters like Batman. So why not overrate Hulk for a change?

Rumor has it, and rumor always has its place in Nicaraguan society, that my darling Danny Ortega loves the Hotel Seminole Plaza in Managua. Well, here I have to strongly disagree with his opinion. "Les goûts ne sont pas à discuter," so they say, but I'm taking the liberty to discuss it here. Hotel Contempo in Managua is one of those gorgeous, stylish ultra-modern hotels that anyone happening to visit Managua with a need to be delighted, must go. Stay a day, stay for longer, the Hotel Contempo serves up style, sumptuous food, warm hospitality and utter elegance, enough to compete with any world class hotel anywhere else on the planet.
I've been lucky enough to stayed at Hotel Contempo numerous times when in Managua. If the truth be told however, I've stayed exactly four times. Each time I visit the Hotel Contempo, I choose a different hotel suite. There are 23 rooms in total. I'm slowly making my way through the remaining 19. Each hotel suite is individually designed, a blend of the Nicaraguan and the modern, each hotel room unique in its experience.
The first room I stayed was the "Colonial," but only briefly when I had an early morning departure from the Augusto C. Sandino International airport (God only knows why international departures are scheduled so early). Even when I had to leave at such an ungodly hour, the staff at the Hotel kindly delivered a coffee and a delicious plate of fresh fruits to my room before I left to catch my flight.
When my stay in Managua has been longer and more leisurely, I have enjoyed other suites at the Hotel. My favorite is the Bilwi, a suite with two queen sized beds, a flat screen TV, a white leather couch in the sitting room area, plenty of closet space and a private, outdoor patio outfitted with a mosaic table and a large Jacuzzi tub. Should I say, I am spoiled?
Hotel Contempo is ultra modern with white, lean architectural lines, located in an upscale neighborhood of Managua. Some might complain that it's out of the way. Yes, you must take a taxi everywhere, but for those that know Managua, you take a taxi everywhere, anyways. What's extra nice is that Hotel Contempo offers free hotel shuttle for both your incoming and outgoing flights. If you need a taxi, Hotel Contempo will also provide you with private transportation anywhere you need to go during your stay.
The art of dining is, indeed, an art at the Hotel Contempo in the Azul Restaurant. One can expect to be delighted with a menu designed by French expat chef, David Dafonte who combines a Nicaraguan influence, organic produce with a French flair. There is a varied, scrumptious menu available should you choose the Azul Restaurant. Breakfasts, included with the cost of a hotel room, are some of the best breakfasts you'll find anywhere in Nicaragua. An omelet, perhaps, with gallo pinto and a dash of crème, French toast, croissants or a traditional American breakfast is a lovely way to start a day in Managua. Lunches can consist of an exquisite salads. I recommend either the Ensalada de Mariscos (seafood salad of prawns and smoked salmon) or the Ensalada de Chef with proscuitto, a crumbled blue cheese and spears of asparagus. There's a handsome Croque Monsieur, a seafood casserole and numerous other choices for lunch or a light meal. Dinner is a variety of meats, chicken, tender steaks and sea foods. For dessert, why not try the traditional French favorite, crème brulée? If you are lucky, your dinner will accompanied by a grand piano and pianist Alexxander Mauricio at the keys.
Hotel Contempo is architecturally modern, a white construct which allows of light and views to the tropical flowers and fauna of the surrounding hotel gardens. There's a lobby bar, a swimming pool, a wine bar and quiet areas to sit and chat while sipping on a cool drink. Nicaraguan indigenous art blends subtly with the modern. What more can I say? It is modern and very refined, a quiet place in the midst of noisy, hectic Managua. The wonderful staff at the Hotel pay attention to detail, will learn your name if you stay long enough and do their utmost to make you content.
Apologies, Danny, let's agree to disagree if the rumors are true. You'll find me holding court in the gardens of the Hotel Contempo in Managua. I never want to leave. Check room availability now at the Hotel Contempo.

MUMBAI: The resilience of the rupee and interest rate differential has seen deposits under the Non-Resident (Ext- ernal) Rupee Account rise by 74% to $14.7bn in '03, the highest growth recorded in the last 12 years.
Between 1991 and '02 NR(E)RA grew only $4.8bn. As against this, deposit growth in the April '02-March '03 has been $6.2bn. Though banks have cut rates on NRI deposits in line with those on domestic deposits, they still end up being more lucrative than the interest rates in the US and the European markets.

Rat Graffiti Becomes a Political Stew
Graffiti is still viewed as a social nuisance in South Korea, unlike some other countries where it is sometimes treated as art. Now, it seems that if South Korea's government takes offense, graffiti can become an act of crime.
On May 13, Seoul Central District Court ruled that Park Jung-soo, a university lecturer, should pay a fine of 2 million won (about $1,850) for spray-painting a rat on dozens of G-20 Summit posters around Seoul just a few days before the event last November.
The logic behind the rat painting, according to Mr. Park, was the initial in "G-20" sounds like the Korean word for "rat." But the prosecutors allege Mr. Park was making a derogatory statement about President Lee Myung-bak, the host of the summit.
The high-profile case triggered a debate on the government's tolerance – or lack thereof – for freedom of expression. In early May, some prominent movie directors filed a petition for leniency for the rat painter. "It is an irony that the country can't lightly parry this level of satire and humor while holding an internationally big event like G-20," said Bong Joon-ho, one of the directors.
According to excerpts of court proceedings, prosecutors said that painting "an ominous creature like a rat" amounts to "an organized criminal activity." Mr. Park "violently robbed our people and children of hope about Cheng-sa-cho-rong and prosperity," they added referring to the lantern that symbolized the event by its Korean name, Cheong-sa-cho-rong.
The court ruled the rat grafitti "went beyond what freedom of expression allows," though it rejected the 10 month prison term prosecutors sought for Mr. Park. A group of Mr. Park's supporters are now selling t-shirts with the rat painting to raise money to pay his court fine.
Meanwhile, both sides appealed the case to a higher court.

"Credit card look stupid stupid.."??
(warning: boobie)
That is priceless.
Love it.
Credit cards make Alan Greenspan cry. :`(
Tips for people with too much free time…
"Credit card look stupid…"
Please guys, if you fix a typo, fix the whole typo.
this looks really cool. I'm skeptical about doing the back side o the card, with the magnetic strip and what not.
On the site, the guy cuts his card down to look more like flames, would that work in a credit card reader (the kind that takes in your card..)?
"THIS CARD WILL TURN BLUE IF STOLEN" = best design ever
@Jaysyn: I think the orig. Credit card look stupid stupid was actually funnier…but then again I am off kilter for the most part..
@rublind: It's magnetic, so I assume that so long as the layer of paint isn't really thick or metallic, it should be fine.
@TVarmy: My concern is that the mechanism that slides the card in and out might not work properly because it can't grip part of the card or something.
Some credit card companies let you customize your card with an image that you send them. No boobie images of course.
this isnt the greatest idea. i used to work at sears and they now instruct all the cashiers to view each credit or debit card under the ultraviolet light thats by the registers. the revamping of the cards may cover up the markings that card companies place and what caashiers are instucted to look for, therefore not accepting your card.
@rublind: The directions specifically tell you to cover the magnetic strip with masking tape.
What I can't figure out is how he got such a clean cut around the numbers and his name.
Possibly the coolest thing I have ever seen. I'm going to pimp out my mom's cards with some really crazy images so she'll have a shocker next time she reaches for one in a store. :D I'm thinking something that says "Aging homemaker with a passion for guns, liquor, and dangerous men." ;) (She's really a sweet, gentle little old lady). :D
Okay no one wants porn on their credit card more than I do. But what happens when i hand that credit card that looks like its been home made with an exacto knife and hot iron to a cashier? Do you figure she'll call the cops? Or will i get lucky and she'll laugh me out of the store?
Porn on your credit card? Now that would be funny as hell at the store…
Zug is one of my favorite sites, and some of the pranks are excellent. (The fake credit card signature prank is classic.)
But a word of warning. The application of the thin layer of plastic may cause some small problems.
Although they are less common these days, some stores still use card imprinters, especially if the mag-stripe has been compromised. The additional layer may reduce the ability of the imprinter to print the numbers clearly.
This is not the end-of-the-world. If the numbers are legible the clerk can hand-print or enter the number into the computer, but it may slow down the transaction and make for a less pleasant transaction.
That being said, often a card that has been used a lot will no longer register in a card reader. This is due to the mag-stripe being badly worn, the card having come in contact with a magnet, or, most often, the plastic of the card having become compressed in the users wallet (this happens a lot to guys with overstuffed wallets).
In this last instance, the card becomes so thin that it does not activate the card reader. A quick fix that some clerks use is to wrap a thin plastic bag around the card to increase its thickness.
So the mod suggested might resurrect one of these thin cards.
Porn on your credit card… now what will I do when I pay the Geek Squad to install iTunes??
…or you could just use a credit card company like mine that lets you use an uploaded image. Of course, I don't think they'll let you upload nudie pics.
I love boobies. That is all.
@jcarrnelson: For some reason I think that is the last thing in the world to worry about. Considering I've had "see id" on the back of every credit card I've ever had and 99.999% of the time they don't even get that far I can't realistically see any cashier really being bothered to check it under a different light.
Not to mention the fact that when I was at sears it took us almost 5 straight months of nagging to make the cashiers realize the counterfet detection pens weren't just there for people to write out checks with.
Zug has a whole series on how he signed his cards.

Posted: 4:23 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 30, 2011
By Arielle Kass
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
By now, retailers have ordered most of the products shoppers will see on store shelves when they begin looking for Christmas sales.
But with expectations that holiday sales will be lower than originally projected, many retailers are looking to get goods in later and are limiting their stock, so as not to get stuck with unsold goods in January.
"Retailers generally are guarded and restrained as it relates to the holiday consumer demand," Robert W. Baird transportation analyst Ben Hartford said. "They're minimizing their levels of inventory."
From late summer to mid-fall, gifts like toys that have a long shelf life and are worth less than pricey electronics travel by ocean freight on their way to stores. As Christmas gets closer, products manufactured overseas like electronics move by plane.
The uncertain economy means retailers are weighing the increased cost of air freight if demand picks up later against the cost of holding on to items in warehouses. They are debating just how much they need on hand, and when.
So far, Hartford said, they're erring on the side of keeping stock low.
During good times, there would be a fall spike in shipments, he said, but so far "there's a lack of a discernible peak season. Retailers only want to carry as much inventory as they'll sell."
The peak season for ocean freight begins in mid-August and goes until early November. The season so far is weak, Hartford said, but could wind up being compressed into a smaller peak later.
"We're certainly not seeing the same volume we were seeing a year ago," Dahlman Rose & Co. director Helane Becker said.
That could benefit shippers like Sandy Springs-based UPS, which Hartford said would stand to see air freight business pick up if early shopping indicates people are more willing to buy than has been forecast.
The International Council of Shopping Centers said Wednesday that holiday shopping center sales will rise by 2.2 percent, after increasing by 5 percent last year. They declined in 2008 and 2009.
UPS CEO Scott Davis said he might not know until December how great the demand will be.
"It could be good for us if companies have to ship things quickly," he said. "We'll start really seeing the answer the last two weeks before Christmas."
Georgia Ports Authority Executive Director Curtis Foltz said the retail season was dictated months ago, and that while retailers may be able to move inventory around the country by air late in the season, it is unlikely they will be able to get products from other countries if they did not already order them. The exception is higher-priced electronics, which traditionally travel by air.
Foltz said he expects a 3 percent to 5 percent increase in traffic at the port of Savannah, but that it is due to Savannah taking business from other ports.
Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy for the National Retail Federation, said retailers are not using their warehousing facilities like they used to. They don't want the cost of holding on to toys or games, he said, and would prefer to receive products just in time to get them into shoppers' hands.
Still, he said port volumes are beginning to pick up. He called air freight a "last resort" for some products.
Hartford, the Robert W. Baird analyst, said increased shopper demand in 2009 led to a "strong pop" in air freight that year. But he said retailers are in a better position now than they were then and in 2008, when they were stuck with too many unsold items after the holiday season was over.

Check with out of state friends and/or relatives. They can tell you a lot about the area, and maybe you can even move in with them until you get on your feet. That's what i did when i went to Cali from the east coast. Had everything set-up except a job, which i got soon enough.
Then i was able to move, get a car, a nice drum set, Made some friends, but consulting with friends is the best way to go. If you don't have any friends where you're interested in going, ask your friends if they know people there, and get the info from them.
Doing it on your own can be a lot harder.

I honestly think NYC holds their people back. Yes, there's a lot of people that live there so there's more chances for jobs and making a living but the amount it costs to live there really hinders people. If you're not rich, it's hard to build any type of savings. It's like that city swallows you whole and you aren't ever getting out or gonna have a better life.
I still like NYC but I wouldn't want to live there unless I was loaded.

It all comes down to where you want to live in NYC or any city for that matter. Some people live there rent free. Not the nicest accommodations but... You get my point.

Moving is tough. Sometimes you don't realize how much you are going to miss everything till you are away from it. If it were me I would save first, at least enough to survive a few months. It would defeat the puropse of independence if you have to call home for support. New places are fun but as the newness wears off you can regret your decision so if you are 100% sure this is what you want, make sure you have plans and even back up plans to make it work.

I would advise you to stay motivated and focus on one thing at a time. Look at what you currently have right now and use them to your advantage. Your end goal is to look for a job, in order for you to do that you want to move elsewhere to look for it, but what's holding you back is the uncertainty and most importantly not having the funds or resources to be able to support you throughout that time that you're looking for a job. So your immediate goal should be to raise some funds.
My biggest advice to you is to take your time. You are young, time is at your side -- you don't have to rush through it. Think this through and attack your problems one by one. A job is an opportunity, no matter what or where it is or how much it pays. I encourage you to swallow your pride and maybe start looking at getting a job at a fast food place or Walmart nearby temporarily -- that's if you haven't done so already. I assume you're not paying rent while at your mom and pops. Save enough money till you have enough to live on for at least three months. Three months is usually the lowest short-term rental agreement that many apartments offer. While you're there you could get a small job to support your funds, then slowly work your way up and send out your applications/resume.
Good luck.

Amazon.com Review
Why are there miles and miles of "unused" DNA within each of our bodies? Why should a bee give up its own chance to reproduce to help raise her sisters and brothers? With a prophet's clarity, Dawkins told us the answers from the perspective of molecules competing for limited space and resources to produce more of their own kind. Drawing fascinating examples from every field of biology, he paved the way for a serious re-evaluation of evolution. He also introduced the concept of self-reproducing ideas, or memes, which (seemingly) use humans exclusively for their propagation. If we are puppets, he says, at least we can try to understand our strings. --Rob Lightner --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
"A must-read for every student of the natural sciences. A classic....An excellent source for heated discussion..."--Paul Munro, University of Pittsburgh
"Students find The Selfish Gene helps them understanding evolution and behavior in ways they didn't before. The book is exciting, provocative, well-written and allows students to think in evolutionary terms."--Janet Mann, Georgetown University

What could be better on a chilly fall day than a warm, ooey-gooey grilled cheese sandwich? One that can satisfies both savory AND sweet cravings -- which is why my Grape Grilled Cheese sandwich will totally hit the spot.
Grapes are a truly a versatile fruit: You can enjoy them alone, in sweet treats or in savory recipes like this twist on the classic grilled cheese sammie that I created for the California Table Grape Commission. My GGC, as I call it, combines creamy brie and tangy blue cheeses with plump, juicy grapes and a drizzle of honey to create a unique and satisfying sandwich. Plus,

Greece, Default and a Hung Jury
If the major rating agencies all declare bank rollover plans for Greece to be a default, the European Central Bank would almost certainly refuse Greek debt as collateral for its lending operations. That much has been made clear.
But Standard & Poor's warning that it would likely classify the French rollover plan for Greece as a default raises a scenario straight out of a John Grisham novel: what if there's a hung jury?
If the ECB strictly applies its longstanding collateral rules, then a default determination would have to be made by all the major rating agencies. The central bank uses the best rating among the major rating agencies to determine whether a debt instrument meets its minimum rules. (This is referred to as the "first best" principle.")
ECB officials have repeatedly said that if Greece were to default on its debt, they would reject its government bonds as collateral for ECB loans, which would likely lead to a collapse of the banking system there.
That's a largely technical judgment for rating agencies such as S&P, Fitch and Moody's. These agencies—all of which rate Greece deep into junk status–have come under criticism in some circles for not giving Athens enough credit for tough austerity measures it has taken to get its finances in shape.
But default is more clear cut, and rests on two central questions: are investors worse off under any debt-purchase or rollover agreement, and are their decisions truly voluntarily. With two-year Greek yields around 25%, it's hard to imagine any case in which investors aren't worse off by taking the money they get from maturing Greek bonds and buying new debt instruments. And the fact that rollover plans have come about as a result of talks between governments and banks, and many governments are insisting on a private-sector role, the case that any decisions would be truly voluntary is tough to make.
In the event of a default, it would be consistent with the ECB's longstanding collateral framework for it to apply its "first best" rule for Greece and wait for all the agencies to classify Athens as being in default.
But there are many reasons to doubt there is any such reprieve for Greece and the euro zone.
For one, rating agencies tend to move in lockstep, so even if there is one holdout, it would likely only be temporary (and imagine the volatility in the markets as investors waited for the last shoe to drop).
Though S&P is the first agency to specifically warn the French plan would constitute a default, Fitch has indicated it would look at any rollover plan skeptically, while Moody's has said it would be hard to see any truly voluntary private-sector participation. Moody's said on Tuesday that banks rolling over Greek debt into new credits might have to take impairment charges on the original bonds, without explicitly saying the plan would result in a default.
Another problem with the hung-jury hopes: the ECB has made it very clear that it would reject Greek bonds in the event of default. It hasn't left itself much maneuvering room, and keeping Greek banks afloat when the majority of rating agencies have it in default would do vast harm to the ECB's credibility.
"For some (in the financial markets) this could be seen as backtracking once again and would damage their reputation," says RBS economist Silvio Peruzzo.
More fundamentally, the ECB's hands aren't even tied by its collateral rules. The ECB already suspended its rating requirements one year ago for Greece after it entered into an EU-IMF austerity program with strong conditionality. A default changes things because ECB rules also require that it accept "adequate" collateral from "financially sound" banks, and each would be thrown into serious doubt under a default.
Still, if the ECB really wanted to find a way to accept defaulted Greek bonds as collateral, it could. It wouldn't need a rating agency as justification.
The bigger question for the ECB is why, 18 months into the crisis, it continues to outsource such a central role to rating agencies in determining its own crisis policies.
As ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said one year ago, after he suspended collateral rules for Greece: "We had a very important discussion on…whether or not we had a better understanding, taking all that into account, or rating agencies had a better understanding of what the situation was in Greece."
The ECB needs to have a similar discussion now.

I admit, most days I think the value of Facebook and Twitter can be held in Tiny Tim's thimble. Call me ancient, old-fashioned or just plain dumb. I live with 10- and 14-year-old girls. I'm used to it.
However, the other day, an even bigger stick-in-the-mud than myself posted a photo from the 1975 National Western Stock Show. It was intended to be a fun, trivia kinda thing where you try to name the date, place and people in the photo. It was fun and it got a lot of comments, but more importantly, it got me to thinking.
Granted, I was three years old in 1975, so I obviously didn't see this bull or any of the competition he stood against. He was however, the champion purebred sale bull that year and brought $27,000, so somebody must have liked him. But, judging from the picture, he wouldn't bring 27 cents in today's market.
I'm not bringing this up in an effort to disparage our predecessors, many of whom are still active. I bring it up as a reminder that as much as we long for the good ol' days, sometimes the present is a much better place to be.
My memories of the good old days are just as fond as yours, but let's face it, many of those memories are getting kinda blurry. Not to mention, when waxing nostalgic, it's human nature to remember the good stuff and conveniently forget the negative.
Except of course if you are talking about a breed of cattle or the association that represents them. Then it seems the negative is all anyone can ever remember. Over the years I have spent my fair share of time trying to talk people out of the stereotype they have of the breed in their head or the mis-justice they feel the association did to them.
Don't get me wrong, it's not like the office phone is a red, complaint hotline, but as you can imagine, we do get the random call from time to time.
The thing I always tell them is times have changed. The breed has changed. Many of the people have changed. And in my opinion, more times than not, the changes have been for the better. Then I tell them if they aren't using Limousin, they should give the breed another chance, or if they aren't doing business with the association, they should think about giving it another go.
From a cattle standpoint there are fullblood, purebred and Lim-Flex cattle out there capable of getting the job done. You just have to choose wisely, depending upon your specific goals. It really is that simple.
And as far as the association goes, they offer more programs and services now than ever before, but that requires money and those funds come from the registration and transfer dollars of the members. It's kind of unique if you think about it—the more the members put into the association, the more they can take back out in terms of the variety and quality of programs the association is able to provide its members.
But then again, what do I know? I predicted Facebook would never be more popular than MySpace.

How did cake mix made it to the new product review? Surely cake mix itself is not a new product. Well, I realized as I was preparing an Eating Well with Kim recipe using cake mix that while the label says "0 trans fat", most cake mixes have partially hydrogenated oil in the ingredient list. This indicates that there is at least some and possibly up to 0.5g trans fat per serving. There is no way to tell exactly how much or how little by reading the label.
I can't go around promoting recipes with trans fat, so I had to go right back to the store for some investigative shopping. I found two cake mixes that were trans fat free.
Private Selection®: All Natural Vanilla Bean Cake Mix: This product can be found in the baking aisle alongside all the other cake mixes. What makes this product special is not what it has but what it does NOT have. This cake mix does not have trans fat! Private Selection Cake Mix comes in three flavors: molten lava, double chocolate, and vanilla bean.
Dr. Oetker Organic Cake Mix: This product can be found in the organic section of the grocery store. This product also does not have trans fat. Dr. Oetker cake mixes come in four flavors: vanilla, chocolate, lemon, and marble.
Bottom Line: Cake is a food to be eaten in moderation, but choosing a cake mix with no trans fat is always a great idea. Look for more cake mixes to follow suit and take the trans fat out.

Chapter V
Basic Research
Without strong basic research, the foundations for the development of future technologies will not be laid.
STAR21, National Research Council
The Army is the full spectrum land warfighting force of the United States. In order to maintain an overmatching capability on which the U.S. depends, the Army invests in basic research to provide this force with technological superiority. Fundamental research is the "seed corn" for technological discoveries and advancements. The Armys basic research:
Fosters progress and innovations in Armyunique areas (e.g., armor/antiarmor) or where commercial incentive to invest is lacking due to limited markets (e.g., military medicine to develop vaccines for tropical diseases).
In this way, the Army can develop or adapt its technology needs for the everincreasing variety of missions it faces. The Armys dependence on technology is increasing as it evolves toward smaller, lighter, more lethal forces. The investment made in basic research today will shape the future Army by providing the technological building blocks needed to address imperatives emerging from future warfighting concepts.
Senior Army management is committed to a sustained basic research program that supports the Armys needs. To this end, the Army structures a coherent basic research program and integrates extramural research that leverages the power of academia and industry with inhouse research in critical, Armyunique areas. The resulting science base provides the foundation for followon applied research (6.2) and, eventually, advanced technology development (6.3) programs.
The Army research program is managed and performed by a network of Army laboratories and centers. Within the Army Materiel Command (AMC) the Army Research Office (ARO) manages extramural programs through the University Single Investigator program, selected centers of excellence (COEs) and the university research initiative (URI) programs. The Army Research Laboratory (ARL) supports several Centers of Excellence, manages the federated laboratories, and conducts inhouse research. Finally, the research, development and engineering centers (RDECs) initiate research through the Inhouse Laboratory Independent Research program. The Army Medical Research and Materiel Command, Army Corps of Engineers, and the Army Research Institute (ARI) for Behavioral and Social Sciences also conduct a mixture of intramural and extramural research programs as shown in Table V1.
Without the scientific base developed by these activities, the Army would not have in its arsenal many technologies that are now taken for granted and that have been used effectively in

recent military operations around the world. The ultimate payoff of basic research is the translation of concepts into technological applications. Examples of applications that have evolved from Army basic research programs include:
The concept of inverted populations of excited quantum states translated into a laser.
The Army must be a versatile, mobile, deployable, power projection land warfighting force. To meet this objective the Army is increasing its dependence on technology to increase its lethality and survivability, decrease its logistics burden, maximize its situational awareness, lighten the force, and enhance soldier performance. To become technologically superior there is a continuous and essential emphasis on basic research in:
Enabling breakthrough capabilities.
1. Army Basic Research Program
The Army basic research program is a critical and integral part of the Department of Defense (DoD) Basic Research Plan (BRP). This DoD BRP describes twelve scientific disciplines and formulates broad visions of what might be achieved in each of these disciplines. It also presents six Strategic Research Objectives (SROs) that define rapidly expanding research fronts with the potential for high military benefit.
The Army Basic Research Plan formulates Armyoriented programs in all but one (Ocean Sciences) of the DoDrecognized scientific disciplines, and it recognizes and plays a lead role in all six of the SROs. These Army programs and roles are detailed in following sections of this chapter.
The Army BRP is managed and executed to focus knowledge in areas critical to the Army. It initiates and fosters revolutionary research that is capable of providing innovative new opportunities for the future Army and evolutionary research responsive to identified needs. The level of investment is dependent on:
Emerging technological opportunities.
There is a tripartite approach to Army basic research that is based on complementary driving forces. These driving forces are:
To exploit basic research opportunities and discoveries (revolutionary innovations).
The Armys basic research program maintains a balanced intramural/extramural effort to satisfy these driving forces. Sixty percent of monies funded are for extramural research to:
Give leverage to the power of academia and industry.
Forty percent of the monies funded are for intramural research programs (Army inhouse) that:
Help maintain "smart buyer" capability essential to the Army.
2. Future Outlook
As the Army enters the 21st century, doctrinal changes are envisioned that will exploit technological advancements. From the beginning of the next century to the year 2010, Force XXI and Army Vision 2010 doctrines will shape the Armys warfighting capabilities, and technologies already unfolding will support these doctrines. Further into the future, in an effort to project the Army toward the year 2025, the Chief of Staff of the Army has established the AAN. In planning the Armys basic research programs, this AAN initiative provides additional focus for the overall program. A key role for the Army research program is to foster the fundamental research that will enable AAN initiatives. The AAN will benefit from all 6.1 basic research, including the SROs, because the discoveries of today are the enablers of tomorrows technologies.
It has been recognized for some time that basic research has been and will continue to be critical to the success of the military. Comments on basic research made over 50 years ago by Dr. Vannevar Bush, 1963 National Medal of Science Recipient, are still valid today: "Basic research is performed without thought of practical ends, but it provides a means of answering a large number of important practical problems." William J. Perry, former Secretary of Defense, also stated, "We are not the only nation with competence in defense science and technology. To sustain the lead which brought us victory during Desert Storm . . . recognizing that over time other nations will develop comparable capabilities, we must . . . invest in the next generation of defense technologies." More recently, Dr. Anita K. Jones, Director of Defense Research and Engineering (DDR&E), emphasized that basic research "provides guidance to the services and defense agencies so that their combined research efforts may enable our primary customerthe warfighterto gain military advantage in the future." The wonder of research is that you never know what you might discover.
The following sections of this chapter detail the Army initiatives that scope the Armys basic research program and the scientific research areas that execute it.

Amazon.com Review
Syms Covington really was Darwin's shooter from 1832 to 1839, and even after he emigrated to Australia, the men continued their tense relationship--until, that is, a copy of The Origin of Species arrived. Though the boy was never the naturalist's "beau ideal" of a collector, still, Roger McDonald writes,
It was a marriage of convenience they had, and Darwin was like the fiancée who gives her consent to the match for reasons of suitability but through lack of love rues the intimacy--yet all the time lauding the practicality.If this talented author occasionally lays on the archaisms too heavily, in Mr. Darwin's Shooter he has nonetheless fashioned a sensuous, provocative adventure. --Molly Winterbotham

Huntsville The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi softball team fell in a pair of two-run Southland Conference games on the road against Sam Houston. The Islanders lost the first game 4-2 and the second game by a 5-3 margin.
The Islanders move to 13-25 on the year and 4-12 in SLC games. The Bearkats improve to 14-14 overall with a 7-7 SLC record. Addie Tallman started game one for the Islanders and fell to 10-10 on the year. Margo Hurdt started the second game, taking the loss to fall to 0-1 on the year.
In the early game, the Islanders fell behind in the third inning when Sam Houston put up a pair of runs on four hits to take an early 2-0 lead. In the sixth inning, the Islanders answered back with a pair of runs to knot the game at 2-2. After a Stephanie Estrada double to right centerfield with one out, Alaina Byars came to the plate and powered a shot over the right field wall to even the score on her sixth homerun of the season.
The Bearkats responded quickly, hitting a two-run homer of their own in the bottom of the sixth inning to take back the lead at 4-2. The Islanders were unable to add any runs in the top of the seventh and fell by the final score of 4-2.
"In game one, Sam Houston got hits in key situations," said head coach Jake Schumann. "We had opportunities but we didn't get the ball in play during key situations with runners in scoring position."
Estrada and Byars led TAMUCC in hitting for game one, with each collecting two hits. Larissa Martin and Sandy Schumann each had one hit apiece while Byars collected the only two Islander RBIs. Tallman pitched a complete game, giving up four runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out none in six innings of work.
In game two, the Islanders fell into an early hole, giving up two runs in the first, two in the second and one in the third to quickly fall behind 5-0.
"We had a couple of situations early in the game where we dropped a popup and gave Sam Houston second chances," said Schumann. "Those missed outs turned into a two-run homerun and a two-run double to put us behind from the start."
In the sixth inning, the Islanders broke through with a pair of runs to close the gap to 5-2. Sandy Schumann reached on an error by the pitcher, followed by a Kim Connelly double to put runners at second and third with one out. Lauren Sanders brought home the first run when she grounded out to the pitcher to allow Schumann to score from third and Connelly to advance to third. Estrada followed with a single to score Connelly to put TAMUCC within three runs at 5-2.
In the top of the seventh inning, the Islanders were only able to get one run as Hurdt hit a homerun to right field to lead off the inning for TAMUCC. That would be all the Bearkats would allow as the game ended at a final of 5-3.
Martin, Estrada, Hurdt, Alejia Cain and Connelly had one hit each for the Islanders. Sanders, Martin and Hurdt had one RBI apiece to account for the three TAMUCC runs. Hurdt pitched one and two-third innings, giving up four runs, three of them earned, on three hits and three walks while striking out two batters to take the loss. Tallman came on to pitch in relief, going four and one-third innings, giving up just two hits and one run while walking one and striking out two.
The Islanders are next in action on Thursday, April 2 in Austin to face off against the Texas Longhorns in a doubleheader. The Islanders split a pair of games with the Longhorns earlier in the season at Cabaniss Field in Corpus Christi, winning 5-0 in game one and falling 9-8 in the second game. After the non-conference matchup, the Islanders return home to host SLC opponent McNeese State in a conference series on April 4th and 5th.
"Our backs are against the wall now," said Schumann. "Every game will be a playoff game from now to the end of the season."

Jacket: Trovata
Shirt: Splendid
Trousers: Zara
Shoes: Jimmy Choo
Belt: Nordstrom
I love this Trovata jacket, it is so comfy and cute. The inside is lined like a sweatshirt so it's really warm. I don't tend to wear it a lot because it's a bit bulky so can make me look chunkier so that's why I belted it today to give me some shape. I love the little puff sleeves and the pleating. I only found out about Trovata from my husband who owns a lot of their clothes. They make gorgeous men's clothing and never knew they made a womens line until I came across it while shopping at a boutique in Seattle.

3 C's (chocolate coffee chipotle) cookie
These cookies are exactly how I imagined they could be, and I'm ready to share :) The inspiration for this cookie came from a little booth at State College's Farmers' Market. I had something between a biscotti and brownie made of dark chocolate and chipotle. I instantly fell in love with the sweetness of the chocolate and the chipotle after-kick - gosh what goodness!
And so, this cookie goodness is born:
3 C's cookie
Servings: 8 big cookies / 12 medium cookies
Prep time: 30 min + 30 min wait
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 1 h 10 min
(This recipe is based on this one here with a few modifications.)
1 cup white flour
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
8 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
1 tsp pureed chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (buy a whole can)
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp instant coffee
5 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup brown Splenda (for baking)
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl. Add 1/8 cup of the chocolate chunks and mix well.
Place the chopped chocolate and 1/8 cup of the chocolate chunks in a microwavable bowl. Microwave on 50% power for 2 minutes. Stir well, and microwave on 50% for another minute, until liquid. Puree the can of chipotles in adobo sauce in a blender, and combine 1 tbsp of the puree with the melted chocolate.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and vanilla extract lightly with a fork. Add the instant coffee and stir to dissolve.
Using an electric mixer, beat the butter until soft and creamy. Add the sugars and mix until well blended - it will look clumpy and granular. Finally, turn the mixer to low and slowly add the egg mixture until well blended.
Continue beating and add the chocolate in a steady stream until completely combined. Add the dry ingredients to the mix and continue mixing until uniform. Do not over beat!
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 F and scoop mixture onto baking sheet (parchment paper helps with cleanup!). Make sure there is plenty of space around each ball, as the cookie will spread quite a bit.
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, rotating if necessary. When done, pull them out and let them cool for at least 10 minutes before eating.
Enjoy with a cold glass of milk, the layers of flavor in this cookie are so awesome!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
by Roald Dahl
Augustus Gloop Timeline and Summary
- Augustus, that lucky duck, is the first kid to find a Golden Ticket. He eats so much chocolate, it was only a matter of time.
- Once they've all arrived at the factory, he's the first person to ask Mr. Wonka about his mysterious workers.
- But once they find out about the Oompa-Loompas, Augustus is too busy sneaking off to the chocolate river to hear their whole story.
- As expected, Augustus just can't help himself, and drinks from the chocolate river.
- He falls in – big surprise – and calls for help.
- It's too late. Augustus gets sucked up the big glass pipe, where he promptly gets stuck.
- Then, something gives and Augustus gets sucked all the way up the pipe, disappearing entirely until he reemerges in Chapter 29, having been squeezed thin by the pipe.

P.O.D. Lie Down Lyrics
Last updated: 03/26/2001 09:43:05 PM
I lie down, I sleep, when I wake, sustain me
Outkast blast through deception, the tension, your mind collapse
Relapse, the stress of matter, when I shatter like glass
The never seen, the never heard style we bring forth Can't ignore the Four,
rippin straight when I take your Title, self, X it out like homicidal
it''s vital, to make my flesh be suicidal
We tribal, sing with the Saints, let our spirits fly
Hold down the strong with the power Jah has given I
Break back the chains, release the squeeze off my veins
Empty box, hollow rocks, I knock you out your frame
Shallow grave marks the date, Oh'' Babylon the Great
Evil virus, be like Cyrus, trample down your gates
We''re the ones, the chosen sons
Come out of dark into light, rather fight than run
We came to die for the reasons you put us down
Don''t know when, could have then, what''s the time, the time is now
I lie down, I sleep, when I wake, sustain me
Ready, attack, bout'' to break you down fast like collision
Religion, take you from vision to flashback
In an instant, calculate precise precision
It''s vivid, turn your intimidation to timid
I''m in it, count down to self-destruction
That''s word to my mother when you suffer the repercussions
Clear the path, it''s the wrath coming through
You ain''t got what it takes to make me break
Because I''m harder than you
I''m harder than you
You ain''t got what it takes

'Jane By Design' Review Revue
The plot of "Jane By Design" seems straight from the Disney Channel, by way of Teen Vogue. A young girl is forced to live a double life to support herself and her brother–she spends half her time as a high school student, the other half as an up-and-comer in the world of fashion.
The new show, which airs on ABC Family (which is owned by ABC Family Worldwide Inc., a subsidiary of the Disney-ABC Television Group) features actress Erica Dasher in the title role as Jane Quimby. The show was created by April Blair, who was also behind the Disney Channel movie "Lemonade Mouth." The series seems to draw from such sources as the movie "The Devil Wear Prada" and the bifurcated life of "Hannah Montana."
"Jane By Design" begins tonight at 8 p.m,. ET on ABC Family.
Here's what critics are saying about the show:
–"This being a teenage fantasy of adult life, Jane is confident enough to parry advances from Jeremy (Rowly Dennis), the playboy British designer at work, but can't form a sentence in front of the high school dreamboat Nick (Matthew Atkinson), to say nothing of the undeveloped tension with her best friend, Billy (Nicholas Roux), who is presented as a Duckie-in-"Pretty in Pink" type but is too handsome, presaging romance down the line." [The New York Times]
–"ABC Family has crafted a fashion-based soap from "Prada," borrowing most of the "Prada" characters as well as its central premise and general sense of good, devilish fun." [New York Daily News]
–"'Jane By Design' is a font of fulfilled wishes, but they come from actual work, even if that work is presented in kicky-fun, pop-driven montage. The show is aspirational and at times genuinely exciting. You care enough about Jane, thanks in large part to Dasher, who is charming and funny, that you want her to have her cake and her ice cream too." [The Los Angeles Times]

[Daily Mail] A German teenager who can't help making Nazi salutes because he suffers from Tourette's syndrome was beaten unconscious by a black man who thought he was insulting him. Gerrit Oeller, 16, was with two friends who tried to explain to the enraged man that the salute was not meant as an insult, and that he could not control his arm. But when the Tourette's led the teenager to grin insanely at the man as well, he went mad, hitting Gerrit so hard that he ended up unconscious. The attack happened on an underground line in the Dulsberg district of Hamburg in northern Germany. Gerrit said: 'He asked me if I thought it was funny and it made me nervous, which made me clench my teeth and he thought I was grinning at him. That was when he hit me. I went out like a light.' His friends told him that another passenger had raised the alarm with station staff who had asked what was going on, but the pair had been too scared to say anything with the furious man there, only when he went off did they call the emergency services and police. By the time police arrived the man had gone but they are studying CCTV footage in the hope of tracking him down. The boy's mother Nicola Oeller said: 'We don't really want to see him caught to have him punished, but we would like him to know that our son really is sick and it is a genuine condition, and maybe to apologise. He can't help himself. But there should be more awareness of the condition.'
Was this Amar'e Stoudemire? If not, I don't follow why some black guy became so infuriated about antisemitic taunts in his grill that he punched a retarded minor's lights out. Reminds me of a time out at the Foggy Goggle where some dude came up to me and my buddies asking to buy drugs. For some reason, he wasn't believing the fact that we were actually not in the slinging biz & started to get angry. After I told him his act was getting old, he came back with something like, "Shut up…where'd you go to college, Jew, Duke?" as he started walking toward me. To this day that's easily the insult that blindsided me the most, and I regret not sitting down with him to understand such a thought process. Instead, I tossed him across the bar before he got carried out by a bouncer. Is going to Duke and being a part of the privileged white upper-class an insult? Does a 6'5″ Irish/Puerto Rican/Cuban look Jewish?
Regardless, although the end results were similar, it wasn't because I was the victim of a misguided Mel Gibson. It was because he was a small, annoying asshole and I'm a meathead. If he came up to me and said, "Hey, what's up Jew from Duke – I need to find some drugs…" I'd have probably helped him on his quest. No biggie. You'd think a black guy has got enough on his minority plate to bear arms against the entire realm of prejudice. And quite frankly, angry black man, I don't think a fair amount of that Jewish community you're defending care too much for your kind anyway. Pick a better battle, homie.

- Scholars, especially social scientists, have a moral responsibility to be engaged in the public debate. It is too common in Sweden today to be quiet, adopt and "stay low". Not at least in the world of academics there is no longer any substantial room for differing opinions, partly because of an increased politicisation of research. In the hunt for new research funding, winning propositions are those compliant to the politically passable mindset.
In his new book Förargelseväckande beteende – om konsten att inte sitta stilla i båten (Misconduct – the art of rocking the boat) Bo Rothstein describes his own experiences of how it is to be a "whistleblower" in a number of areas, such as the preconditions of politics, the possibility of equal opportunity, the future of the welfare state and the threats against a free and noncommittal research.
- The lack of critical voices could to some extent be blamed on the Swedish political culture that so strongly emphasises consensus and cooperation. There is also a highly exaggerated image about what kind of risks that awaits someone who dares to be critical in this Swedish culture of consensus, Bo Rothstein says.
He claims that Swedish universities do not foster creative researchers neither are there any creative research environments.
- On the contrary, not at least in social science and arts subjects, large parts of Swedish research have a structure that leads to what best could be described as intellectual inbreeding, the Professor claims.
Quality, freedom and noncommittal research are particular interests of Bo Rothstein. He has for example been one of the leading critiques of the low quality of research when it comes to Swedish Gender Studies. After a hot debate about a certain research case he even proposed that the Uppsala University should be shut down.
Recently he also has criticised economic scholars for not being able to defend "neoliberal" theories in the shadow of the financial crisis.
His strong engagement for free and noncommittal research does to some extent carry personal motives. In the opening chapters of his book he describes the consequence of having the holocaust in the family and the importance of remembering and never to forget. He states that it is people of his own trade, political scientists, if any, that knows that evil could reign unrecognized in our society. The spirit of the time can make us blind.
- History gives us a number of bad examples of what lack of moral courage among the intellectuals can lead to. Many, for example Albert Einstein, explained the Nazi's accession to power with the opportunistic tendencies among German scholars in the 1930s, Rothstein concludes.
