and what about the monitor?

#252 to #251 - Nihatclodra (11/12/2012) [-]
I would love to, but I just checked: My mom's comp doesn't meet minimum requirements.
#253 to #252 - honourableevil (11/12/2012) [-]
Oh well, I guess that's just another reason to get the rest of the parts for the computer. But I do know of a game that you can defiantly play without any troubles from graphics or requirements; Battlefield 1942 is also free to play on Origin. I even have it myself, so we can go kick some Nazi butt together.
#254 to #253 - Nihatclodra (11/12/2012) [-]
Maybe. that's a fairly old game, so it SHOULD work I guess... I'll have to reinstall Origin and get permission to install it first though.
#255 to #254 - honourableevil (11/12/2012) [-]
Alright, origin might take awhile but not BF 1942, it also really doesn't need a graphics card and has a size of 1.21 GB. But what would make co-op play nice is if you had Skype, do you?
#256 to #255 - Nihatclodra (11/12/2012) [-]
No, I don't. It's installed on my mom's comp already though, and her comp has a built-in (and pretty crappy) mic installed. You don't have to pay for skype do you?
#257 to #256 - honourableevil (11/12/2012) [-]
Nope. it's free. Heck, I use it to talk to my Grandma across the globe, and I don't have to pay a cent for long distance. **** the police.
#258 to #257 - Nihatclodra (11/12/2012) [-]
I just set up a skype account, go ahead and add me on there. I'm Nihatclodra as always.
#259 to #258 - honourableevil (11/12/2012) [-]
I sent you the contact request awhile ago...did you get it?
#261 to #259 - Nihatclodra (11/17/2012) [-]
also, I came across an otaku/anime-themed mod for BF1942 called "OhanamiMOD"... do mods work at all for Origin Games?
#260 to #259 - Nihatclodra (11/16/2012) [-]
I accepted the friend-request on skype, and Battlefield 1942 is not installed on my mom's comp. So when should we do this?
#262 to #260 - honourableevil (11/17/2012) [-]
Did you mean, BF 1942 was installed or wasn't? I don't think that today would be the best to have a match since Planetside 2's Beta test is ending today and they're giving out a ton of upgrade points. Maybe tomorrow after my rifle practice, or in the morning.
And for the mod; those kinds of things are where you have to edit the files on your game's Data folder. You have to manually install it and make sure that you follow the directions carefully. But there shouldn't be any real problems with Origin or EA, the Battlefield series up until 2142 was open to modders, and the games usually come with a mod tool kit...But saying that, this is Origin we're talking about and I have no clue if it would work or not.

At about 4:00, but it takes about 45 minutes to get back to Victoria from Sydney.
#265 to #264 - Nihatclodra (11/17/2012) [-]
and when does it start?
#266 to #265 - honourableevil (11/17/2012) [-]
2:00pm, and again it takes about 45 minutes to get there so I leave at 1:15.
#267 to #266 - Nihatclodra (11/17/2012) [-]
Might be better to do it Sunday then, doing anything then?
#268 to #267 - honourableevil (11/17/2012) [-]
You know what? The Planetside 2 beta is acting really crazy right now: The price for upgrades has doubled, some of the perks that I liked are now gone, and a lot of the weapons seem to have been nerfed into near uselessness. So I'm free now, but I don't like the way that Planetside 2 is heading.
#271 to #268 - Nihatclodra (11/17/2012) [-]
alright, I'll get skype, etc all set up. hold on a few minutes.
#269 to #268 - Nihatclodra (11/17/2012) [-]
They're probably trying to balance the game for the official release, and are over-balancing.
Anyway, so you're saying you can play BF1942 now?

Property Rights and Indigenous Tradition Among Early 20th Century Japanese Firms

Harvard Law School
February 2001
Harvard Law and Economics Discussion Paper No. 311
In several fields, modern academics trumpet the contingency of social science and the indeterminacy of institutional structures. The Japanese experience during the first half of the 20th century, however, instead tracks what much-derided chauvinists have claimed all along: modern legal institutions largely trump indigenous organizational frameworks, and modern rational-choice theory nicely predicts how people respond to such institutions. As orientalist as it may seem, such theory goes a long way toward explaining the real world in which we live.

The spring remains nearly parallel to the ground during the motion and is observed to be stretched by .10 m. By how much would the spring stretch if it were arrached to the ceiling and the ball allowed to hang straight down, motionless?

I am glad that the holidays are over, and it seems like my sanity has returned. Although this goddamn country is still entirely shut down until Monday. Japan shuts down for like 10 days twice a year, once around New Years and the other time during April. For Janurary 1 through 3, you literally can't even go to a restaurant, or anything. A lot of restaurants open their doors again on Jan. 4, but not all of them. So for those three days, you just have to eat fast food and stuff, or else cook. You can't even use an ATM between Jan. 1 and 4. Not any ATM, anywhere. (So far as I know anyway). This stuff is all very inconvenient, especially for a country like Japan where things are usually pretty set up.
I'm looking forward to things returning to normal.
Than again, these last few days I've also enjoyed the quiet and peace a bit, that'll be gone soon. It's just that when you have things to do, it is a pain when everything is shuttered.
Strange country. Off the rails most of the time, and then completely dead two times a year.

Been doing some writing for a bit. Time for some excel work though I'm afraid.
At least I can listen to headphones when I work in excel. But I quite hate working in excel.

I've been staying up all night (while drinking, and working) and sleeping all day lately. When sleeping in the day, I always get the craziest dreams.
Yesterday, I dreamed I was having a 3some with this Chinese girl I know and another girl. That was a nice dream.

It is indeed past 7am. I've been drinking whiskey, and a bit of beer, and writing all night. I'm going to try to write a little more, and then maybe get some sleep. I'll get up at 3pm or something, have some things I have to do, then write some more. Tomorrow's gonna suck, I have to teach at an elementary school in the morning. I'll probably just have to stay up all night, not drink (

I just saw some videos on youtube of cowboy shooting competitions, and had some questions. First is their any competitions in Tennessee. Second what are the cheapest place to get said "cowboy guns" in Tennessee or online. And which guns would qualify as a cowboy gun.

If this is the first weekend in December, then Lubbock Trinity Christian can easily be found.
The Lions opened the AMA TechTel Kids Inc. Tournament of Champions on Friday at First United Bank Center the way a two-time defending tournament champion would be expected to open it. Trinity Christian began the day by beating Hereford, 89-35, in the first round to advance to Friday's late semifinal game.
Hereford began and ended the opening quarter strong against the Lions, as Edson Rameriz opened with a 3-pointer and Nate Adams closed it by hitting a jumper. In between, though, Trinity scored 27 unanswered points and took a 29-3 lead, a deficit from which the Herd had no chance to recover.
The Lions made 11 3-pointers to bury Hereford, which never got closer than 20 points after the first quarter.
"It's just good for us to get in these games and work on a lot of things we need to do better," first-year Trinity coach Jeremy McFerrin said.
McFerrin succeeded Todd Duncan, who took over as head coach at Lubbock Christian University.
What hasn't changed, though, is Trinity's dominance at this tournament. Senior Parker Wentz had a game-high 24 points for the Lions, Dave Miller had 17 points, and Benjamin Wheeler added 10 points off the bench.
That set up a game with tournament co-host Canyon in the semifinals.
"We want to go in and win," McFerrin said. "We won every tournament we were in last year except for the Caprock Tournament (in Lubbock). We like coming up here and playing the local teams and being the out-of-town spoiler."
Adams had 16 points and Rameriz 11 points to lead Hereford.
Canyon advanced to the semifinals by beating Rio Rancho, N.M. 59-56. The Eagles scored the first 10 points of the fourth quarter to go up 54-37 and held on from there, as Will Toliver and junior Wyatt Sippy each scored 13 points.
"We really haven't had close games where we had to manage things through the end so this was nice," Canyon coach Guy Crenshaw said. "Our seniors and Sippy really controlled the situation."
In an early surprise, El Paso Andress beat Fort Worth Arlington Heights, Class 4A's No. 8-ranked team, 56-52 to open boys play.
First Round
RR—Josh Lucero 14, Brady Patterson 12. C—Wyatt Sippy 13, Will Toliver 13
L—Tevin Foster 13, D. Pyfer 8. R—Ridrell Holman 9, Rantraven Sims 9.

by Marian Thurm
If this fifth book by the author of Walking Distance is an accurate depiction of our circumstances, there can be no further doubt about the state of Western civilization: confused.
A happily remarried man, Spike Goldman is distressed to find that Leora, his beloved second wife (and mother of his newborn son) has struck up a friendship with his ex-wife, Suzanne. Leora, for her part, resents Spike's closeness with his longtime shrink and sees her friendship with Suzanne as Spike's just deserts. Meanwhile, Leora's widowed father, Alexander, has taken up with his house-keener, a woman so warmhearted and commonsensical that even Alexander's shocked family and friends eventually come to accept her.
Clearly, Thurm is attempting to use these self-consciously wacky characters and situations to expose some Truths about Modem Relationships; what she has produced is a fairly obvious novel that resorts to just about every modern urban cliché. (Bantam, $19.50)

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. James Ransom was chosen by Martians of another reality to be the one to open a gateway from their world to ours so they could take over here. He was given the ability to allow things from parallel universes to come to whichever one he was in. When his powers first manifested and before he knew about them, his love for the Ripper was unintentionally bringing alternate versions of the killer on other Earth's to Marvel Earth 616. After he was incarcerated he learned to use his power better and when he was freed he was able to bring through anything that was around, not just Rippers. He says he feel his way around universes finding the bits he can use and then brings them to him. When Pete Wisdom tried to force him to work with MI-13 to find someone, Ransom brought over three units from the Fifth Mechanized Roman Infantry of the Britannia Garrison, giant robots dressed in ancient Roman outfits. Another time, when a guard tried to keep him out of a building, he found a parallel universe that had a railway right where the man was standing and sent a train flying at him. He later used a flying carpet from a reality where the things were like taxi's. After all this fooling around he served his real purpose and opened a doorway to the Martian's reality and let them through so they could terrorize Earth 616. When the Martians were through he asked for his reward. All he got was death.

Tyler Myers can go right out the window. They want a ridiculous amount for him (heard 4 starters and a high round pick) and honestly he's not that good. He's just tall.
Byfuglien is an interesting option. He fills a lot of holes on our backend (size, toughness, and a righty). Seems like a better trade partner than BUF who is in our division.
Don't know much about Petry.
I don't want to imagine Big Buff filling any holes on my backend. Immature and sleep deprived is not a good combination.

ImmunoVaccine Technologies (IVT) signed an agreement with the La Jolla Institute for Allergy & Immunology to test the application of its DepoVax™ vaccine delivery system for influenza and arenavirus vaccines.
The institute's epitope-based vaccines are in preclinical research. The goal is that using DepoVax, only one vaccine dose will be required for protective immunity and that a strong cellular and humoral response is achieved.
DepoVax uses liposomes to encapsulate a target antigen and adjuvant. The vaccine formulation also relies on a hydrophobic oil carrier. The result is a depot effect that enhances vaccine induced cell-mediated and humoral immunity, according to IVT.

Twenty-five years after the late Dutch Morial ended his tenure as the city's first black mayor, his children continue to uphold the family tradition of civic involvement.
Morial's middle daughter, banking executive Cheri Morial Ausberry, is the latest member of the clan to step into the spotlight as the new chairwoman of Baton Rouge's Downtown Development District. Ausberry, a Capital One Bank vice president, has been a member of the DDD commission since 2005.
Her appointment came a few weeks after her younger sister, Monique, was sworn in as a 1st City Court judge in New Orleans. In her first try for elected office, Monique Morial won the job without opposition last summer.
The former mayor's oldest daughter, Dr. Julie Morial, practices internal medicine in Baton Rouge.
Dutch Morial's younger son, Jacques Morial, is a longtime community activist and political consultant. He works as a senior organizer with the Louisiana Justice Institute, where he focuses on health care access and other social justice issues.
Dutch Morial's oldest son, Marc Morial, was the city's mayor from 1994 to 2002. Since 2003, he has been president of the National Urban League, based in New York City.

Well, that was some match.
Leading 2-0 and looking comfortable, Inter fell asleep and let Bologna back into it before both sides struggled through 30 minutes of added time. Ranocchia's goal in the dying seconds was harsh on the visitors, but it made great watching for the neutral.
Ahead of Tuesday night's Coppa Italia encounter, Inter coach Andrea Stramaccioni said that his side would be giving the competition the respect it deserved. The Roman even went as far to say that progressing was as important to them as their Serie A and Europa League form.
Both Inter and Bologna approached the game in the right way, with strong squads and plenty of attacking intent.
So what stood out in this encounter? Read on to find out.

"An equal opportunity
An unveiling ceremony took place on August 17, 2004 to honor artists and thank the Board of County Commissioners for their decision to grant space for the County's first history museum inside the 1916 County Court House.
The artwork of thirty-two local students was installed on the construction fence at the Court House renovation site on Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach. A panel of judges selected the final works of art from more than 300 submittals from public elementary, middle and high schools. They were judged for their historical integrity, accuracy and artistic merit. The eight-by-ten-foot panels will remain in place until the restoration of the Court House is completed.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- If you're charmed by the combination of grace, intelligence and talent, you won't want to miss the 45th Annual Miss Staten Island Scholarship Pageant Saturday evening, at which four local young women will be crowned Miss Staten Island, Miss Richmond County, Miss Staten Island Outstanding Teen and Miss Richmond County Outstanding Teen, during an extravagant production set for 5:30 p.m. at New Dorp High School.
Themed "Anniversary Celebrations," the pageant will be accented by sparkly fashions and eye-catching stage settings. It is expected that Claire Buffie, Miss New York State 2010, and Alison Stroming, Miss New York State Outstanding Teen 2010, will make guest appearances.
This year's theme not only celebrates the scholarship pageant's 45 years and Miss America's 90-year history, it pays tribute to the Island's 350th anniversary.
There are eight Miss Staten Island and Miss Richmond County contestants, and six Outstanding Teen contestants, who will compete in interview, active and swimwear, evening gown and the onstage-question segments.
The Miss America preliminary will open with the national anthem sung by Ryan Kelly, Miss Staten Island 2002. Star Struck Dance Company, both East and West Coast National Dance Champions, under the direction of Gail Willadsen Criscione, Miss Staten Island 1989, will then kick the show into high gear with their award-winning "We Will Rock You," which will see more than 140 dazzling dancers on one stage. "Miss Gail," as she is affectiontately referred to, has dedicated her time and talent to the pageant program for some 21 years.
The production also will showcase the farewells of Jennifer Scacco, Miss Staten Island 2010, who will perform her talent award-winning dance; Shelley Jain, Miss Staten Island's Outstanding Teen 2010, and Olivia Devoti, Miss Richmond County Outstanding Teen 2010. All three titleholders have devoted a number of hours to community service.
Jeffrey Watson, Mr. New York State 2010, will partner Maria Boshnak, a former pageant runner-up and dancer with the New Jersey Nets, in a dance routine.
Jim Smith, executive director of the Miss Staten Island Scholarship Pageant, has revealed that Carmine DeBetta has reprised his role as producer and director of this year's production.
Carmine states, "This year's pageant represents some of Staten Island's best and brightest young women and men who strive to accomplish extraordinary things, share their gifts and bring joy to the world around them."
Assisting Carmine are his daughter Elizabeth DeBetta, an actress and businesswoman, who serves as assistant director, and his wife, Felicia DeBetta, who continues in her role as speech and interview coach and stage manager; she prepares contestants for the interview and onstage phases of the competition.
Jerry Ruggiero, pageant board president/treasurer, ticket coordinator and longtime board member, reports that the pageant team has worked diligently for the last month to provide the audience with a spectacular performance. Teresa Valerio, who has assumed several organizational tasks, is backstage hostess.
"The Miss Staten Island Pageant is one of the oldest local pageants in New York state, and to celebrate the success and to give another young lady the opportunity to compete in the state pageant, we will crown two winners this year," notes Smith.
In the teen division two teens will be crowned, Miss Staten Island Outstanding Teen and Miss Richmond County Outstanding Teen. All four young ladies will compete in June at the Miss New York Pageant, a steppingstone to the Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas next year.
Smith explains that contestants have participated in a variety of community service programs, such as raising funds for cancer and Muscular Dystrophy research, advocating for Special Olympics, helping hospitals and children, going green, bullying prevention, foster care and adoption, and no-smoking campaigns, to name but a few.
DeBetta points out that the Island is a very special place, where youth and adults work side by side in positive projects, demonstrating the effectiveness to get the job done through teamwork.
Also joining the pageant family is Judge's Chair Christine Rizzo, who handles all aspects of the judging process, from preparation of contestant portfolios for interviews through the ballots for the onstage competitions.
The evening's mistresses of ceremonies are Kimberly Ferdinando, Miss Staten Island 2005, and Elizabeth DeBetta. Kimberly Cantoni, Miss Staten Island 2009 and the current Miss Richmond County, will assist Jennifer Scacco, the reigning Miss Staten Island, in crowning the new titleholders.
To complete the anniversary celebration, Barbara Sperry, a founder of the Miss Staten Island Scholarship Pageant in 1967, and Marilyn Dobbin Kinelski, the very first Miss Congeniality, will serve on the panel of judges.
Tickets to the Miss Staten Island Scholarship Pageant can be had for $25 (orchestra) and $20 (balcony). Those interested should call Jerry Ruggiero at 718-979-6417 or e-mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Dropkick Murphys and Lucero at Iron City Wednesday night. Four out of five stars.
Boston and Memphis aren't exactly neighbors.
But when Dropkick Murphys decided to bring Lucero on their latest tour, the twin bill—whose fans do overlap some, but not as much as you might think—promised to showcase a pair of well-established bands at different ends of the punk rock spectrum.
As a result, fans of both packed out Iron City on Wednesday night for a sold-out show.
Lucero came on at 8:45 with little fanfare other than a greeting from frontman Ben Nichols before jumping into the set.
The Memphis band is probably best described by the somewhat awkward "punktry" label—part punk rock, part country. But in recent years, they've added a horns section and begun to play a rootsy brand of Southern rock.
Whatever you'd call it, Nichols and company drew from their deep catalogue for a 45-minute set featuring crowd favorites like "Nights Like These," "I'll Just Fall," and "Tears Don't Matter Much."
Nichols even broke up a fight at one point.
During "The War," a slow tune about his grandfather's military years that featured just guitar and accordion, Nichols stopped playing to talk them down.
"Seriously? You start a fight during the slowest, most important song of the night?" Nichols said to the brawlers. "What could possibly be that important right now? Just drink some whiskey and listen to a band."
After the song, Nichols made light of the situation by letting the crowd know that Dropkick Murphys were up next, touching on one of the big differences between the two bands: Whereas Lucero is the kind of band that one sits back and enjoys, Dropkick Murphys are catalysts for crowd-surfing, mosh pits and other somewhat safe methods of releasing energy.
Dropkick Murphys hit the stage at 10:00 and jumped right into a frenzy of loud, quick punk rock anthems like "The Boys Are Back," "Barroom Hero" and "The Warrior's Code."
In nearly two decades of existence, the seven-piece Boston outfit has carved out a niche: they may not be the only Irish punk band in the world, but they're certainly the most prominent.
Their Irish sound isn't a gimmick, though. There's a bagpiper who doubles as a flutist, they make use of banjo and accordion frequently and lead singer Al Barr gets as close to the crowd as he can to keep them energized.
Wednesday night marked the first time they made their way down to Alabama.
"18 years we've been a band, and we've been to most places," said bassist Ken Casey. "What took us so long to get here?"
Southern hospitality suited the self-proclaimed "Massholes" well—Casey sent out a special thank you to the Iron City staff, who apparently cleaned the band's laundry before the show.
Just past the hour mark, the band went into "I'm Shipping Up To Boston," their biggest hit that's easily recognizable if you've ever watched a Red Sox game, a Sam Adams commercial or Martin Scorsese's "The Departed."
In an interesting and rather unexpected move, Dropkick Murphys followed up that track with a covers compilation of Bachman-Turner Overdrive's "Takin' Care of Business," Grand Funk Railroad's "We're An American Band" and a few bars of The Ramones' "Blitzkrieg Bop."
They weren't done with covers for the evening, though, as the four-song encore included AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap," accompanied by a steadily growing steam of people who crowded the stage for the final songs.
The Bostoners wrapped up a 90-minute set with "Citizen C.I.A."
No matter which side of the punk rock spectrum crowd members fell on, Lucero and Dropkick Murphys were great complements for a solid twin bill.

India Journal: Experiments in Community Ownership
By Adarsh Kumar
Capitalist development in new regions has a tendency to spur new structures of business organization adapted to local economic and political conditions.
The Chinese Township and Village Enterprise — where a new business is established by local government, owned wholly or partially by collectives, but managed by professional managers — is only the latest example of the evolution of region-specific business structures that includes Dutch and British joint-stock charter companies in the 16th century and British and American precursors in the 19th century to the current multi-national corporations.
Adarsh Kumar is the founder and chief executive of Livelihoods Equity Connect, a fund that seeks to invest in the Indian agricultural sector and promote models connecting small farmers to mainstream markets.

All College Degrees Are Not Created Equal: The Highest and Lowest Paying MajorsMeredith Carroll
You can drive yourself crazy figuring which college is best for your kid. But the college journey is not necessarily as important as the destination when you factor in how much higher education costs these days. There are inexpensive schools, outrageously expensive schools . . . not to mention a scarily pricey school for wizards. Some schools churn out better-paid students than others, and some majors are simply more lucrative.
If you'd like your child's degree to translate into something more than just memories of fun times when they get their diploma after four years, it's worth knowing which majors have the best payoffs, and which have the worst (hint: the Brontë sisters will not your child a millionaire make).
Take a look at the five worst paying majors, followed by the five best:
Child and Family Studies 1 of 10Starting Median Pay: $29,600 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $40,500
Elementary Education 2 of 10Starting Median Pay: $32,400 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $44,000
Social Work 3 of 10Starting Median Pay: $32,200 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $44,300
Culinary Arts 4 of 10Starting Median Pay: $29,900 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $46,800
Special Education 5 of 10Starting Median Pay: $34,300 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $47,800 . . . Also on the worst-paying college degrees list are religious studies, athletic training, public health, and art. And now for the best-paying college degrees . . .
Aerospace Engineering 6 of 10Starting Median Pay: $60,700 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $102,000
Materials Science and Engineering 7 of 10Starting Median Pay: $60,400 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $103,000
Electrical Engineering 8 of 10Starting Median Pay: $61,300 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $103,000
Chemical Engineering 9 of 10Starting Median Pay: $64,500 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $109,000
Petroleum Engineering 10 of 10Starting Median Pay: $97,900 • Mid-Career Median Pay: $155,000 . . . also on the best-paying college degree list are economics, computer science, applied mathematics and physics.

The Charleston Broadway Dance Ensemble (CBDE) is a regional student dance company presenting the most recent performance genre to hit Broadway, the "Dansical." The Dansical is an in depth choreographic project by which dancers take a story based on the musical theatre format and translate it entirely into dance vocabulary. In this program, not only will the dancers use Broadway's jazz technique, but will also interpret through the vernacular of ballet and modern dance styles. The company consists of 21 talented dancers from the Charleston area, with ages ranging from 10-17, who were chosen through an audition for this year's production.
"Little Shop" tells the story of Seymour, played by principal dancer Jonathan Tabbert, and Audrey, played by School of the Arts senior Ann Pitner, and their dreams of a better life outside of Skid Row. Their ticket out may come from turning around a failing local flower shop. The ever-growing out of this world plant known as "Audrey II," played by company dancers Monica Barlow, Emily Lamm and Anna Lanier, may by the key to their success; or will it? The eye popping magic of the Broadway stage will come to life with brilliant costuming as well as elaborated full stage sets by local designer Buchannan Arts.
CBDE's director Stephen Gabriel is a veteran of the Charleston arts community with numerous Piccolo Spoleto offerings including "Off to Oz" and "The Little Mermaid." His unique style and mastery as a performance coach creates not only a marvelous production but also an incredibly professional work experience for the talented young artist in the company.
Charleston Broadway Dance Ensemble has had the privilege of participating in outreach work with Courageous Kidz and Medical University of South Carolina's Child Life Atrium, and is now pleased to present Little Shop to the Charleston community.
"Little Shop" will be performed at the Rose Maree Myers Theatre of Performing Arts, Charleston County School of the Arts on June 9 at 7 p.m.
Tickets are $15 (Adult) and $10 (Child) General Admission, available at the door or by contacting the Charleston Dance Institute at 843-284-8151

From other people on the anti-Bushite blogosphere, hearing the idea that it's time to impeach Bush and Cheney would hardly be noteworthy. A great many commentators have been saying that for some time.
I think they've been mistaken– till now.
While I've agreed that Bush and Cheney deserve impeachment –have said, indeed, that no one in American history has deserved it more– I've never considered that to be a sufficient basis for making such a judgment about what should be done. My approach has always been more strategic than that. I'm concerned not only with the rightness of an action, but with its impact. And a premature effort to move toward impeachment, I thought, might actually have strengthened the Bushites by weaking their opponents.
When many were condemning Nancy Pelosi for declaring impeachment to be "off the table," I did not join in the criticism. I thought it a politically prudent statement to make, given the apparent skittishness of the American electorate at that time about impeachment and, more generally, about so-called "partisanship." For that time, it was probably reassuring to many in the public and it in no way impaired the ability to put impeachment back onto the table when circumstances changed.
Well, now they've changed. And now it is time to begin the drumbeat and the march toward impeachment. (Pelosi's situation does remain delicate, however: if Bush and Cheney are both impeached, guess who is next in the line of succession.)
There have been three important changes since last November's election.
First, in the first half year of this Congress, after years of virtually no congressional oversight, the investigative hearings conducted by the Democratic Congress have brought a whole stream of administration wrong-doing to the attention of the American people.
Second, and likely at least partially as a result of the first, the proportion of the American public now favoring movement toward impeachment has reached a stunning level. Almost half of the public (46%) favors the impeachment of the president, and more than half (54%) favors the impeachment of the vice president.
These are already numbers that greatly limit the political risk to the Democrats in pressing forward with impeachment. And it can be assumed that the actual impeachment process –if it is conducted with reasonable political and prosecutorial skill- would raise those numbers considerably.
It looks as though about 30% of the public will support Bush regardless of any facts presented about any high crimes he has committed, but there remains an additional quarter of the public whose support might still be won over to supporting impeachment.
Then there's the third important change –and in some respects it might be the most important one. And that is that the Bushites –by their arrogance, their stonewalling, their imperial usurpations– have quite blatantly and publicly blocked every other recourse.
Just in the past months:
**Their indefensible assertions of "executive privilege" are thwarting the other, lesser forms of congressional investigation into the wrongdoings of the Bush presidency. Battling these issues out in the courts would drag on for so long as to give this lawless regime a victory by default.
**Meanwhile the vice president's machinations have compounded the message of contempt for the public's right to oversee what is being done by their elected leaders with the power entrusted to them.
**The president's commutation of Scooter Libby's sentence has made a mockery of the ability of the justice system to deal with criminal activity on the part of this cabal and, moreover, has blocked the ability of prosecutors to get to the root of the crimes committed.
With all these maneuvers, the Bush administration has laid down the gauntlet. It has precipitated the ultimate in constitutional crises: will America be ruled by an all-powerful president, accountable neither to Congress nor to the courts nor to the American public?
The answer to that question must be "No!" For the sake of future generations, American cannot afford to allow this profound constitutional challenge to go unmet.
Andit is the Bushite regime, by blocking every other recourse –for oversight, for accountability, for checks and balances– that has made impeachment the sole remaining way to defend the integrity of America's constitutional system and the rule of law.
So, the impeachment solution is now necessary. The polls show that, while inevitably risk, that course of action should be politically viable. And so it is now up to the American body politic –the public, the Congress, the media– to summon up the will.
Now that the Bushites have made it clear that the only way to defend the Constitution and the rule of law is to impeach them , one other thing has become clearer than it has ever been before: what the anti-Bushite movement must do.
It is time to organize to apply maximum pressure on Congress to move it to impeach the leaders of this lawless administration.
From one angle, it's unfortunate that Congress must be pressured to do this. One would wish that they would fulfill their oath to defend the Constitution on their own.
But from another angle, this is the best way for the impeachment process to unfold. A mass movement by which the people demand that Congress impeach these lawless rulers not only pushes the Democratic majority in Congress, it also provides them political safety.
The Democrats have been inhibited by the fear that any move to impeach these would-be tyrants would be interpreted –by the media and the public– as mere partisan politics– just a move to wrest power from their opponents.
But if enough people demand that Congress defend the Constitution by impeaching this lawless leadership, it will be clear that this is not a matter of power but a matter of answering the people's impassioned call to fulfill their oath of office. What could be more defensible than that?
What protects the proponents of impeachment also undercuts those who would defend this lawless regime. In America, the will of the people is difficult to argue with. This is our country, and whereas the American people may not be qualified to make strategic policy we are fully entitled to demand that our birthright of a constitutional democracy be protected. "You took an oath, now fulfill it. Impeach those who are stealing OUR country!"
Already, according to the polls, about half the American people favor the impeachment of Bush and of Cheney. Such public sentiment is unprecedented in American history, and such numbers demonstrate the potential for an unprecedentedly massive social movement. If we can combine a clear and powerful message with putting our movement in our millions into the streets, the force on Congress would be irresistible.
That's our job now: to organize to accomplish it.
I do not claim to know how this movement should organize itself, but I do have some thoughts.
One thought is that this movement should develop itself into a coherent force as quickly as possible. The Bushites have thrown down the gauntlet, and it is good to rise while its latest usurpations –trying to render Congress irrelevant with its claims of executive privilege, trying to render the judiciary irrelevant with the commutation of Scooter Libby's verdict, etc.– are still fresh in people's minds. Also, of course, there remain only a year and a half in the administration's term, time enough for them to continue to wreak havoc but not so much that we can dawdle on the process of reining in the lawlessness.
Another is that it should organize itself in a manner that optimizes the benefits of having both good top-down leadership and effective bottom-up grassroots participation.
Toward that end, I propose moving simultaneously toward three preliminary goals:
1) A leadership group should be formed. I propose that the people comprising this leadership group should meet the following main criteria: a) They should be effective and credible spokesmen for the idea that this impeachment is a vital necessity for the nation; b) They should have the knowledge of the American system, and the connections, to be effective in making that system work for the movement; c) They should be regarded as people of integrity by the American people; d) They should make it easier, or at least not harder, for Americans who are politically moderate or conservative to join and support the movement.
Among the people I propose for possible membership in this leadership group are these: Bill Moyers, Bruce Fein, Walter Cronkite, and Jimmy Carter. I also propose that these legally trained people who have been doing excellent work on these matters be included –either as members of the leadership group or in some other capacity: John Dean, Elizabeth de la Vega, and Glenn Greenwald.
2) The diverse organizations and individuals who have already been working for such purposes should be brought together behind this collective, coherent effort. We are not nearly so likely to win this battle as an uncoordinated collection of many diverse squads doing our own thing on the political landscape as with one cohesive movement with well-chosen spokespeople.
3) At the same time that this leadership group is being formed, and as the far-flung participants in the anti-Bushite movement are being brought together, I propose that a website be established –or, if a suitable one already exists, adopted– to provide a platform for this movement to assemble itself and to conduct its business.
On this website, the movement could post its major statements –e.g. pieces from the leadership and others, messages to Congress, a draft bill of impeachment, etc.– and it could also create discussion forums, conduct votes, plan events, and so forth.
In addition to having such capabilities, the website should be under auspices dedicated to the impeachment, and not otherwise associated with any other political causes. In order to be hospitable to Americans across the political spectrum, it should not bear the kind of partisan or ideological trappings that would repel people who agree about impeachment but disagree on other matters.
These several levels of the movement –the leadership group, the various already existing organizations and prominent voices, and the grassroots– should work together swiftly to create a good interface among them. The purpose of that interface would be both to allow the leadership to lead and coordinate and to allow the grassroots to have an effective voice to influence the leadership.
Other goals that I propose be pursued as soon as the leadership and the website are inaugurated:
1) Creating grassroots outreach programs –via email, door-to-door, etc.– to enlist as many Americans as possible to participate in the effort to demonstrate that impeachment is the will of the people. That half the people already favor impeachment suggests the possibility of creating a movement like nothing seen in America before.
2) Planning a day of massive demonstrations, to show how widespread is the popular demand for impeachment. Perhaps the main one of which should fill the Mall in Washington, D.C. with a magnitude and a passion comparable to the "I have a dream" demonstration of 1963. Getting our movement in its millions out into the streets should be accomplished as soon as is feasible.
By such means, the movement should be able to compel the kind of headlines that will convince Congress both that it is politically safe to impeach the Bushites AND that it is politically unsafe NOT to do so.
Pressing Congress toward impeachment is the right mission for our movement not only because it is timely but also for these other reasons:
1) This is the most fundamental. There's a reason that the defense of the Constitution is what our office-holders are required to take an oath to do. Maintaining our democracy is more urgent and basic than any of the other particular issues raised by this destructive regime, including even the war.
2) This is key. Holding these law-breakers accountable for their high crimes is also the best next step for addressing all the other issues of major concern, including the war.
3) This is simple. "Impeach them now! Defend the Constitution" is a straight-foward stance — free of great policy complications that require examining a wide range of positions– and is therefore ideally suited to the strengths of a social movement.

Don't shoot the messenger..
Some Hastings stores are going through a remodel. From what I've heard, stores are supposed to gut the first eight (!) new copies of any game, and, of course, all used games. They'll be stored in some cabinet or something like they are at Gamestop. I'm assuming most stores will get the remodel, but it'll take time. Just don't be surprised if some games that you order as new from the website come to you already gutted.
That's assy.

Children and young adults who start antidepressant therapy at higher than modal doses appear to be at greater risk for suicidal behavior during the first 90 days of treatment, found a cohort study of 162 625 people aged 10 to 64 years with depression (Miller M et al. JAMA Intern Med. 2014;174[6]:899-909). Modal doses for citalopram, sertraline, and fluoxetine were 20 mg/d, 50 mg/d, and 20 mg/d, respectively.
The rate of deliberate self-harm among individuals 24 years or younger who started antidepressant therapy at doses higher than modal doses (up to maximum daily doses of 40 mg/d, 200 mg/d, and 80 mg/d for citalopram, sertraline, and fluoxetine, respectively) was about twice as high as that in a matched group of patients who received modal-dose therapy. The authors suggested this corresponds to about 1 additional event of deliberate self-harm for every 150 patients treated with high-dose therapy. For adults 25 to 64 years old, there was no difference in risk for suicidal behavior.
