A 2010 Psychology Today article resurfaced on the popular news site reddit.com, exploring the correlation between social and economic security and atheism.
The correlation between a lack of religion and an abundance of social security has been known to researchers for decades:
In sub-Saharan Africa there is almost no atheism (Zuckerman, 2007). Belief in God declines in more developed countries and is concentrated in Europe in countries such as Sweden (64% nonbelievers), Denmark (48%), France (44%) and Germany (42%). In contrast, the incidence of atheism in most sub-Saharan countries is below 1%.
Author Nigel Barber continues:
It seems that people turn to religion as a salve for the difficulties and uncertainties of their lives. In social democracies, there is less fear and uncertainty about the future because social welfare programs provide a safety net and better health care means that fewer people can expect to die young. People who are less vulnerable to the hostile forces of nature feel more in control of their lives and less in need of religion.
Perhaps the reason for the correlation is obvious to many readers, but the importance of statistical evidence must not be understated.

With the 2010 NFL combine winding down I figured it was a good time to piss some people off by posting a mock draft. As a Seahawks fan I pissed myself off too as this is not what I want to have happen, but it is what I predict will happen if the present order stands with no trades. Of course there will be trades soooo this is rather pointless. Anyways, without further interuption get ready to see red and most likely be sickened by what awaits you as I present to you...The Mock
2010 NFL Mock Draft: 1st Round Post-Combine Version
By kyven11 ,
With the number one pick in this year's draft St. Louis will desperately seek out someone to trade with. When that doesn't happen St. Louis will select Sam Bradford. I know everyone's talking about Suh being the next Reggie White and then the same people a week later saying that Mccoy could be possibly even better than Suh (which I guess means that luckily enough in the same draft there will be one player who is as good as White and then another who is better?), but niether is Reggie White. Its predraft hype. They'll both be great in the NFL don't get me wrong, but with how much money is going to go into this pick the Rams will take a QB. Bradford vs. Clausen is the only question here. You got to go with wins if Bradford proves to be healthy. I know the Irish defense wasn't the best but they always kept the game close(never lost by more than a td this year) and you gotta go with the QB with the killer instinct. Bradford didn't even need a defense with how many TD's he was putting up every game when he was healthy. So if his shoulder gets the okay so does he.
The money that goes into the #2 overall is still a ton but you can't draft a QB 2nd overall this year when you drafted one 1st overall last year. With the worst pass defense in the league you have to pick up someone who can get past the line and cause chaos in the backfield. Some people have Berry here because they see worst overall pass d and think that they just need better people in coverage, but with the lack of pressure Detroit is getting on QBs it doesn't matter who is in coverage. I was fighting over whether McCoy or Suh would go here. They're both neck and neck and some say that even though Suh had more sacks last year McCoy is still the better bet as a pass rusher. After the combine though and seeing Suh's jaw-dropping vertical I have to put him in Detroit because even though a vertical doesn't translate into a sack, if he can get a hand in the QB's face or swat balls their overall pass defense will be leaps and bounds better than this last year.
Worst rush D in the league last year. They will not draft Berry here especially with McCoy still on the board. If the Bucs were to draft a safety they'd need more of a Taylor Mays type safety and you can't draft him 3. Berry is a playmaker but he's been known to have some problems finishing tackles and missing people. If run d is your problem a safety that misses tackles is the LAST thing you need on your team. They'll be smart and grateful that McCoy fell to them at 3 and pick him up quickly.
This is a tough one not because I don't know what Washington should do but because I don't know what Washington will do. They should draft LT here but with Shanahan (who loves to build QB's) coming in I'm tempted to put Jimmy Clausen here. I think it'd be a huge mistake. Campbell is not bad he just plays behind a terrible line. The best and safest bet would be to pick the best OT available who right now seems to be Okung. He had the injury at the combine but I don't think that's enough to hurt him. I think Washington takes Okung, builds him up this year, and then next year picks up their franchise QB to put behind a much more stable line.
With the 31st ranked rush d in the NFL last year their best bet would be DT but with Suh and McCoy off the board they need to address better QB protection. They gave up 45 sacks last year. With Okung off the board the battle is between Bulaga and Davis. This is a toss up depending who you ask. Some people (especially after the combine) have Bulaga ahead of Davis while some people go as far as having Davis even ahead of Okung. Bulaga seems to be the initial answer as he's an elite pass-blocker, but I go with Davis as he's an elite run-blocker but also no slouch in pass protection. So I go with balance and pick Davis here.
This year's draft feels an awful lot like last year's draft if this scenario plays out. Last year the Seahawks needed a LT, this year the Seahawks need a LT. Last year arguably the best overall player fell to them in the draft (Curry), this year arguably the best overall player falls to them in the draft. I hate this situation so much as a Seahawk fan. Not because I don't like Eric Berry. He's a playmaker and Seattle knows it needs playmakers on d but the most important issue to address is the awful o-line. I hope one of two things happens either the Seahawks trade back a few spots so not to be tempted when this scenario comes to fruition or they are strong enough to just grab Bulaga. But if Seattle doesn't trade and Berry falls to them it'd once again be very hard to pass him up. Safety is a very big concern right now and he is the best but do you pick the 1st best safety in the draft or the 2nd/3rd best ot. If he falls to them I can't see Seattle passing him up. The best situation for Seattle though would be OT with 6 and DL at 14 but they could address one DL in free agency. If that happens this situation could work out beautifully for Seattle.
With so many issues to address they go best player left on the board. Joe Haden by far has the best value at this point at a position of need. That's all I have to say about that.
This makes no sense to anyone that doesn't know much about Al Davis. Most boards have him around the 20th best choice in this year's draft but Al Davis will make him a top 10 pick. The combine proved this guy was just as much a freak athlete and beast as everyone thought he was. He's a project, but he's probably got more room to grow than anyone in the draft. The other player I considered here was Jason Pierre-Paul but Campbell's combine has made up Al Davis' mind.
I truly apologize for this. This was also a reason I failed to mention for why I chose Bradford to St Louis over Clausen. I'm sorry if this triggered a gag reflex but I'm a Seattle fan and there are far too many Seattle fans talking about picking up a QB with our 6th overall pick. I am very much so against that idea and just want all Seattle fans to see that this is what you're asking for if you keep talking like that. I just hope Carroll sees this in time. Go ahead Buffalo... he's all yours (thong not included).
With averaging less than 1 sack a game the Jaguars NEED to address DE. Luckily their biggest need was not a big enough need for anyone of the previous teams to address so they get their pick of whatever DE they want. Everyone agrees that Jason Pierre-Paul's versatility and potential are incredible upsides but potential doesn't always pan out. The safest bet is Derrick Morgan who is the best Defensive End in this year's draft.
Brandon Marshall will be gone and even if he's not the Broncos can't afford to pass up on a weapon like Dez Bryant. He is going to be huge in the NFL so long as he stays out of trouble. The kid made one mistake and deserves a second chance. McDaniel's got one after that embaressing Cutler mishap and if he gives one to Bryant it will pay off. You may not agree with me but Im sold on this kid.
The Miami Dolphins are the team to take JPP. They can use him at DE or OLB and in a season or two he could dominate. Or he could be a bust but either way Miami takes him.
The 49'ers could take an OT here which would probably be the best decision because at this point they could still grab Bulaga over Williams, but I think a lot of people are assuming the Seahawks will pick Spiller if they don't first. Spiller is not the answer in Seattle but hopefully SanFran won't realize this and take Spiller. He's the elite back in this year's draft class and would be a great fit alongside Gore's power. I do think however they could get him at 17 but I don't think they'll take that chance.
It would be the best case scenario for Seattle if Bulaga fell to the Seahawks at 14. Some people wouldn't consider it falling as some people have him going closer to 20. I think he'd be a steal at 14 especially for Seattle. Bulaga's an elite pass blocker and would fit Seattle's ZBS perfectly. Seattle needs an OT here especially if they go defense with #6 and pick up Berry.
With the departure of Pierce, NY will look to replace him. With their pick of any linebacker in the draft the clear cut candidate is McClain. A very intelligent player who will provide leadership to New York's D.
Despite his trouble with the law that knocked him down a few pegs someone will have to look past his mistake and take him in the first round. He was often projected as a top 10 pick before his drinking incident so 16 seems just about the right place for him to go. The Titans were 31st in the league in pass defense last year and if Dunlap can do what he does best and apply some pressure the Titans could be sitting pretty come the playoffs next year.
The 49'ers could use some help at OT. With three of the four offensive tackles that are worthy to go in the first round already off the board the decision is easy and is Trent Williams. I make it sound like he's left overs but he'd still be a great addition to SanFran's O-line.
If Big Ben gets hit this year like he did last year he won't even be able to tell the time hahahahaha I crack myself up. Anyways like I said with pick 17 all the OT's are now off the board so I wouldn't be surprised to see them draft up a few spots to ensure their chance at grabbing an OT. If they stay at this spot however they will go with Iupati. He's no offensive tackle but protection anywhere on that line would be an upgrade. Just because he's not a tackle doesn't mean he's not deserving of this pick. I'm not saying he's the next Hutch but if he turns out to be even close to as good as Hutch we've all seen how important that position can be.
As we start getting up around the 20's we start looking at more teams with less to talk about when it comes to the draft. You start finding teams with one real need and then the rest is to kind of add depth. I think the clear need is CB so Wilson would be a good fit here. I've seen a lot of Atlanta fans demand Sean Weatherspoon here but this is my mock draft. Go make your own.
The Texans' coach in an interview said that they most likely will not draft position exclusively because when you do that you start to reach so more importantly to him is value. I'm going to surprise a few people and say I think Dan Williams goes before Brian Price and I say he goes to the Texans here.
The Bengals have no good options at TE. Gresham is THE best TE in the draft so the Bengals will pick him up with this pick to help give Palmer a big target over the middle.
I just have this gut feeling that Price will go after Williams and not the other way around. In this scenario I have him going pretty much right after and with him on the board New England grabs Price. I think whichever player (Williams or Price) is left on the board here New England will grab.
Goodbye Kampman hello Graham
Here you go Amaan. The Eagles need to add some youth to their aging LB corps. This kid will be a good fit in Phili
Unless the Ravens do something in Free Agency to address the WR issue in Baltimore this pick will be either Benn or Tate. I think Benn's a stud too and it could honestly go either way but Tate's the playmaker the Ravens are looking for to give some weapons to their young QB.
With the release of Rolle and Earl Thomas slipping this far past teams due to a lesser need at safety it just makes sense. The Cardinals could go Mays here but I highly doubt it. They already have the hard hitting safety in Wilson now they just need the playmaker they'd hoped Rolle would be.
At the very least this guy will be fun to watch. I wish Seattle could somehow find a way to pick him up, but at this point it looks like Dallas is the most likely place for him to go. I don't expect him to have a year like this last one. I'm very confident he'll be back to his old form in the NFL.
I wish I could be interesting and say Ryan Matthews but I gotta go with Best here. His injuries are a question especially with deeper concern with concussions in the NFL this year but if Best is healthy he's just downright better than Matthews and I think San Diego takes the risk that he will be healthy.
Jets got their franchise QB last year now its time to get him a big weapon. I think a lot of people will look at this as Benn falling past Baltimore and I think the Jets will look at it that way too.
I'm taking a risk on the big guy but I believe in him and I think the Vikings will too. He's almost too big a monster for any team to want him in the first round but with the Williams brothers getting up there in age they need another big man to take over the reigns when one or both leave. Cody's about as big as both of them so that works out nicely. Cody lost a reported 16 lbs before the combine and I think he'll work hard to lose more before the draft. He'll be in good enough shape to barely make it into the first round and I think Minnesota's the team that takes the chance on him.
With Minnesota passing up on Odrick the Colts take him. The only side of the ball that could use some work is the defense and even the defense is good. But they could use some help on the d line and Odrick's a good fit.
The Saints have no gaping holes on either side of the ball. However center is an easy position for them to address with this pick as Pouncey is the best center in this year's draft. He will make an instant upgrade to an already nearly unstoppable team.

Mutiny On The Iberville: The Most Thrilling Legal Opinion Of The Year
Usually, the written opinions authored by appeals court judges are pretty drab stuff. Too much legalese to decode and certainly not a lot in the way of plot, much less action.
Then there's Judge Bailey Moseley. He recently issued an opinion from the state's Sixth Court of Appeals that reads more like a swashbuckling novel of decadence, betrayal, jealousy and bloodshed than the typical snore.
The first chapter, or section, of the piece is titled "Mutiny on the Iberville."
Moseley outlines that the case is about Captain Bobby Roberts Jr. who was commanding a ship off the coast of Angola when his boss, the Rigdon Marine Corporation, told him take the helm of another vessel called the Iberville. Roberts job was to bring order to the ship, crewed by a mix of Americans and Angolans, who along with Captain Jay Heater had taken to drinking, drugging, and fighting.

A Rigdon supervisor had promised Roberts that he would "remove certain troublesome members of the crew from the ship," writes Moseley. "This promise to ensure Roberts' safety was rendered meaningless when Roberts was brutally assaulted during his first day aboard the Iberville."
Right off the bat, Heater was pissed that Roberts was replacing him.
"As problems presented themselves throughout the day," Moseley writes, "Heater would repeatedly ask Roberts when issues arose, 'Do you want me to handle this as the captain or are you going to handle it as the captain?'
Roberts' first night aboard the ship, an American crew member slipped into town and returned drunk. He either spat or sat on an Angolan shipmate, kick-starting a beef between the two nationalities. However, when Roberts told the men he would boot the drunken sailor off the boat in the morning, the crew appeared to calm down.
Thinking all was well, Roberts returned to the ship's bridge, when out of nowhere Heater poked his head through the door and "once again asked, 'Are you going to handle this as captain or am I?'" writes Moseley. "Roberts, attempting to discern the problem to which Heater made reference, came to the door where Heater stood and was encountered by an unidentified Angolan assailant on the deck who rambunctiously proclaimed, 'You're not the captain, you die; you die now.' The assailant drew a knife and began to pummel Roberts with his fists."
Roberts managed to wiggle away and locked himself in the ship's head.
"Irate Angolan crew members began to surround the secured doors shielding Roberts," tells Moseley. "Heater, disobeying a direct order from Roberts, opened a locked door, allowing angry Angolans to enter … the Angolans hit him numerous times in the face, kicked him, and caused him to tumble down the stairs with four of the assailants atop him. At the foot of the stairs, they continued thrashing Roberts so severely that 'there was blood all over the walls.'"
In terms of legal briefs, that's some good action.
As for the case itself, Roberts was suing Rigdon for failing to provide a seaworthy crew and vessel. In the end, Moseley sided with Roberts, upholding a jury verdict in favor of Roberts for $1.5 million.

Early detection for Belen Mansford was key to beating breast cancer
- From: The Advertiser
- May 09, 2013
- TELL US: Do you know an inspirational cancer survivor?
ERREN Mansford lost her father to cancer eight years ago and was shocked and upset when her mother was diagnosed with the disease last August.
But the 22-year-old, whose father Peter Mansford died in 2005 and mother Belen Mansford recently finished receiving treatment for breast cancer, is determined not to let the disease get the better of her family or others.
"When I went to mum's first chemotherapy session that's when it really hit me," Miss Mansford, a high school teacher, said. "I thought of all the little things we worry about each day that really don't matter and that others are doing it tough too.
"The silver lining is we know how vital early detection and awareness is and we need to spread that message."
The Taperoo mother and daughter will walk the city route of Sunday's Mother's Day Classic along with 15 family members and friends.
Ms Mansford's tumour was detected early, thanks to an annual mammogram and ultrasound.
"I have autoimmune disease, which means my immune system isn't as strong as it should be and it was suggested to have a mammogram every year instead of every second year," the 55-year-old said.
"I'm lucky because I couldn't feel the lump and there were no symptoms, yet it was still picked up."

Encompassing over 1.58 million hectares, the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area (TWWHA) occupies almost a quarter of Tasmania and is one of the largest temperate natural areas in the southern hemisphere. The area is formally recognised as a World Heritage property through the World Heritage Convention on the basis of three cultural heritage and four natural heritage criteria and is one of only two properties listed under the Convention for this many criteria.
The World Heritage Convention aims to promote cooperation among nations to protect heritage around the world that is of such outstanding universal value on a global scale that its conservation is important for current and future generations. As a participating nation in the Convention, Australia has agreed to identify, protect, conserve, present and transmit the cultural and natural heritage of the TWWHA and to ensure an appropriate management system is in place for the property.
The stunning and diverse range of landforms, the unique biodiversity, and aesthetic qualities of the area are enriched by the long occupation by Tasmanian Aboriginal people. The TWWHA has significant value in terms of its contribution to the social and economic wellbeing of all Tasmanians. It has important recreational, health, educational and aesthetic values as well as providing highly valuable ecosystem services and is a significant contributor to the Tasmanian economy, in particular through tourism and energy generation.
The property was first inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1982 and has been subsequently expanded several times with a major extension in 1989 and minor boundary modifications in 2010, 2012 and 2013. The June 2013 minor boundary modification added approximately 170 000 hectares to the TWWHA including additional areas of tall eucalypt forest.
Since inscription on the World Heritage List, the TWWHA has been managed under a partnership arrangement between the Australian and Tasmanian Governments which ensures the protection of its outstanding natural and cultural heritage. Day-to-day management of the area is the responsibility of the Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service in the Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (DPIPWE), although some smaller areas are managed by other entities, for example Hydro Tasmania. Currently, the majority of the area is managed in accord with the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area Management Plan 1999 (Plan). This Plan is a revision of, and replaced the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area Management Plan 1992. The Plan is now outdated and does not cover the extensions made to the TWWHA in 2012 and 2013. The Tasmanian Government, supported by the Commonwealth Government, has committed to the development of a contemporary management plan for the TWWHA.
A Project Team within DPIPWE has been established to oversee the formulation of the new management plan.
The first stage of the development of the new plan was completed with the development and release of a draft management plan. This followed an informal period of community and stakeholder consultation. The results of the consultation informed the development of the draft plan. The content of the plan also reflects contemporary understanding of management issues. The formulation of the draft management plan is a statutory process set out in the National Parks and Reserves Management Act 2002 (the Act). The Act required that the draft plan be made publically available to allow for representations to be made. The representation period is an important part of the process of developing an effective management plan for the TWWHA.
The minimum representation period required is 30 days. However, to provide a greater opportunity for thorough consideration by interested members of the public, this period was extended to 63 days (19 January 2015 to 22 March 2015).
A large number of representations have been received reflecting the level of community interest in the management of the TWWHA. On behalf of the Director of National Parks and Wildlife, the Project Team wishes to thank all those organisations and individuals who provided a representation.
The representations are a critical component of the statutory process.
The Director of National Parks and Wildlife (the Director) has reviewed all the representations received and has prepared a report which includes a summary of all representations, the Director's opinion on the merit of each representation and whether modification of the management plan is required. This is known as the Director's Report.
The Director forwarded copies of all representations received, together with the Director's Report, to the Tasmanian Planning Commission (TPC). The Director's Report and representations are available from the TPC's website.
The TPC has reviewed the representations and the Director's Report and has prepared a report to the Minister. The TPC's report to the Minister is available from the TPC's website.
The Minister will now consider:
The Minister will make such alterations to the management plan considered appropriate and recommend the final management plan to the Governor for approval.
Frequently Asked Questions - Director's Report (283Kb)
The Tasmanian and Australian governments have been working together to meet the expectation of the World Heritage Committee that the TWWHA is managed in accordance with our obligations under the World Heritage Convention. The Department has been engaged in a productive dialogue with the World Heritage Centre and its technical advisory bodies (the IUCN and ICOMOS) and will continue to work with them to address issues recently raised by the World Heritage Committee. The Reactive Monitoring Mission, which consisted of representatives from IUCN and ICOMOS, which completed its visit in November 2015, was welcomed as part of that process.

NEW YORK — Designer Lulu Guinness is bagging sales for her signature scent.
This story first appeared in the April 18, 2003 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
The tour began with an appearance at Harrods in London, where Guinness unveiled the fragrance. In the U.S., she was right at home Monday evening at Bergdorf Goodman. An entire section of the store's beauty department was transformed to look like one of the designer's boutiques. Lulu Guinness handbags, shoes and fragrances were available and customers received a deluxe mini with any purchase. Guinness not only signed fragrance bottles, but took a pen to her bags as well. Neither Guinness nor her fragrance licensee, Riviera Concepts Inc., would comment on estimated sales, but industry sources estimated the event helped garner total Guinness item sales of approximately $20,000.
The tour also included stops at Nordstrom in Paramus, N.J., and Neiman Marcus in Atlanta. Guinness will hit the West Coast with appearances at Nordstrom doors in Los Angeles, Glendale, Calif., and South Bay, Calif., and Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills.
The designer noted that the response has been "fantastic. Everybody seems to get it and it appeals to customers of all ages." Guinness also said that she will launch a rose-based, limited-edition scent for fall, which will come in a rose basket.

Lou Gramm
When talking about Foreigner circa 2008, it's tempting to refer to the group with air quotes around its name: Lead guitarist Mick Jones — who shouldn't be confused with the Clash guitarist of the same name — is the only original member still playing in the band. But like other classic-rock icons traveling around sheds and arenas with nonoriginal singers (cough... Journey), new vocalist Kelly Hansen does an admirable job aping the histrionics of curly haired crooner Lou Gramm. But everyone knows that Gramm was the best singer Foreigner ever had. He co-penned a long string of hit records during his tenure with the band, many of which are still FM-radio staples. Whether it's balls-out rock ("Hot Blooded," "Double Vision"), Bic-flicking balladry ("Waiting for a Girl Like You," "I Want to Know What Love Is"), or synth-based apprehension ("Urgent"), they're all songs showing that Gramm had a knack for songwriting success. This week, he comes to the Hard Rock not to do any of his solo material but rather to sing songs from the Beatles classic 1968 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. That might seem a bit strange, but he and a cast of other strong vocalists will perform the album in its entirety to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its release.

The Stokes relations linking time reversal and the inverse filter119(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.2161452View Description Hide Description
Our aim in this paper is to show how two adaptive focusing techniques, Time Reversal (TR) and the Spatio Temporal Inverse Filter (STIF), are related by the Stokes equations linking waves transmitted and reflected through a medium. For that purpose a model experiment has been investigated: a solid plate located between two arrays of transducers. When sending a wave from an array to the other through the plate, multiple transmitted waves are induced. TR and STIF are used to cancel these echoes. The echoes can be suppressed by TR, using the two arrays cavity surrounding the plate. They can also be cancelled by STIF, inverting the transmission operator between the arrays. The STIF achieves echoes cancellation by using only the transmitted fields through the plate, whereas TR also requires the reflected fields. The STIF's strategy is analyzed in light of the Stokes relations: thanks to the reflections in the medium, it is able to simulate a TR cavity with only one array. A mathematical analysis of the matrix expression of the Stokes relations then leads to two iterative ways to invert the transmission operator. Finally, this general technique is applied to a more complex medium: a human skull bone..
Dispersive surface waves along partially saturated porous media119(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.2164997View Description Hide Description
Numerical results for the velocity and attenuation of surface wave modes in fully permeable liquid/partially saturated porous solid plane interfaces are reported in a broadband of frequencies . A modified Biot theory of poromechanics is implemented which takes into account the interaction between the gas bubbles and both the liquid and the solid phases of the porous material through acoustic radiation and viscous and thermal dissipation. This model was previously verified by shock wave experiments. In the present paper this formulation is extended to account for grain compressibility. The dependence of the frequency-dependent velocities and attenuation coefficients of the surface modes on the gas saturation is studied. The results show a significant dependence of the velocities and attenuation of the pseudo-Stoneley wave and the pseudo-Rayleigh wave on the liquid saturation in the pores. Maximum values in the attenuation coefficient of the pseudo-Stoneley wave are obtained in the range of frequencies. The attenuation value and the characteristic frequency of this maximum depend on the liquid saturation. In the high-frequency limit, a transition is found between the pseudo-Stoneley wave and a true Stoneley mode. This transition occurs at a typical saturation below which the slow compressional wave propagates faster than the pseudo-Stoneley wave.
Resonance modes in a one-dimensional medium with two purely resistive boundaries: Calculation methods, orthogonality, and completeness119(2006); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.2166709View Description Hide Description
Studying the problem of wave propagation in media with resistive boundaries can be made by searching for "resonance modes" or free oscillations regimes. In the present article, a simple case is investigated, which allows one to enlighten the respective interest of different, classical methods, some of them being rather delicate. This case is the one-dimensional propagation in a homogeneous medium having two purely resistive terminations, the calculation of the Green function being done without any approximation using three methods. The first one is the straightforward use of the closed-form solution in the frequency domain and the residue calculus. Then, the method of separation of variables (space and time) leads to a solution depending on the initial conditions. The question of the orthogonality and completeness of the complex-valued resonance modes is investigated, leading to the expression of a particular scalar product. The last method is the expansion in biorthogonal modes in the frequency domain, the modes having eigenfrequencies depending on the frequency. Results of the three methods generalize or∕and correct some results already existing in the literature, and exhibit the particular difficulty of the treatment of the constant mode.

Why Use A Local Moving Company?
Moving is never an easy task. It takes a lot of planning and preparation on the part of a homeowner. In fact, it is such an overwhelming task that it cannot be done on your own. You need to hire a top local moving company to handle the task for you. Such a company will relieve quite a large amount of stress helping you relax in the process. Choosing a top local moving company should be done after extensive research on your part. Here are some important tips in this regard.
Asking for recommendations from your friends or neighbors is the easiest way to choose a local mover. Word of mouth is still effective in searching for moving companies. The people close to you will not lie to you when passing on such information. You can trust them to provide a reliable local moving company if they have experience in using such a service in the recent past. This will help you find a reliable moving company in your area.
You can obtain a comprehensive listing of moving and storage companies by going to the internet. Check for past customer reviews to learn more about the service quality of these moving companies. Call a couple of these clients of the local moving company to verify the claims on the website about the moving company. These websites will also provide price quotations, contact details and pictures of previous jobs handled by the particular moving company. This is the best place for you to get to know the moving company better.
Visit the office of the potential moving company, and check their storage facilities and trucks. Make sure the trucks are marked permanently with the company's name. This guarantees that the company is not a fly-by-night affair. All moving companies should provide a copy of "Your Rights And Responsibilities In Moving." If the potential company doesn't provide such a document, do not hire them since the company is bound by law to provide this document to all its customers.
Ask the moving company about their insurance policy. This is essential in case things get lost in transition. Do not hire any company that doesn't have a valid insurance coverage. Ask the company about their refund and reservation policies. Read and understand the contract before you place your signature on it. If not, you may find it difficult to get compensation if any goods are damaged or lost in the process of moving.
Always choose a local moving company that provides the service themselves, and doesn't sub-contract the job out to a third-party. Request a representative from the potential moving company to visit your home before providing an estimate. Never waste your time on companies that provide quotations through the phone. A moving company cannot quote realistically without inspecting the goods of the customer. Keep this in mind when hiring a suitable local moving company.
The aforementioned are some of the most important factors to consider when choosing a local moving company.

I recently went boat shopping. After enjoying three Seadoo-brand jet boats over the past 15 years, my wife and I decided to venture into a 2011 Yamaha series jet boat. The new styling and interior design was the key selling point, but little did we know that the Yamaha series of jet boats are extremely difficult to operate and turn at low rpms.
There are no monkeys at Seadoo when it comes to great maneuverability at low speeds. On the first day driving our brand new Yamaha SX210 (21-foot boat), we found ourselves attempting to maneuver at slow speed (no wake) through a series of boats and swimmers in a cove. The adventure was quite dangerous, to say the least. At times we tried to turn left and the boat went right. The reaction time for turning was horrendous, causing a mass exodus of disgruntled swimmers and boaters in our near vicinity. Driving the boat onto the trailer in a tight boat ramp area... as they say in Jersey, Fuhgeddabahdit.
The fix we put in place included an aftermarket series of rudder and fins that mount onto the jet nozzles that help turn the Yamaha series of boats in low-speed maneuvers. The problem is the additional cost of $600 to $1,200 to make these boats turn at low speed. Until Yamaha engineers admit they have a problem in their design, the aftermarket guys will make a fortune.
Suggestion for Yamahas engineers: Denial is no answer; roll back time 10 to 15 years and examine some of the boats from Seadoo that offer great maneuverability at low speed. Check out the 1998 Seadoo Challenger 1800 as well as the 2002 Seadoo Challenger 2000.
So while purchasing a $33,000 to $48,000 jet boat from Yamaha you may want to save a little money for the aftermarket tool that will help turn your boat in a no-wake zone. Then everybody will be happy...

Critics Herald DVF, Send a Chill to DKNY
Big Names are showing daily, and the critics are quick to praise or pick apart. Diane Von Furstenberg's femme-fatale look was lauded, but Max Azria's resurrection of the Hervé Léger label was mixed. Jonathan Saunders charmed most reviewers, but not Cathy Horyn. And Donna Karan's time-traveling collection was confusing to all but WWD.
Big Names are showing daily, and the critics are quick to praise or pick apart. Diane Von Furstenberg's femme-fatale look was lauded, but Max Azria's resurrection of the Hervé Léger label was mixed. Jonathan Saunders charmed most reviewers, but not Cathy Horyn. And Donna Karan's time-traveling collection was confusing to all but WWD.
Hervé Léger
Not content with showing two collections this week, Max Azria resurrected the iconic Hervé Léger label to mixed reviews. WWD felt he got "carried away" with the feathers and appliqué on some of the skintight dresses. Style.com agreed, saying, "Azria's simplest additions were the most successful." Fashion Week Daily, the lone voice of dissent, called the feathers "sumptuous." The most successful dresses in the collection were the show-closing minis, according to Style.com: "That was what everyone came for, and it suggested that the best way to reinvent a classic may be to not mess with it all that much."
View the Hervé Léger slideshow.
Watch a video of the Hervé Léger runway show.
Jonathan Saunders
Jonathan Saunders's New York debut won rave reviews for his architectural construction and tailoring. "Working with pleats can get tricky, yet Saunders pulled it off," WWD observed. Style.com applauded his evening gowns, calling them "the standouts of the collection especially striking was a snug black strapless tuxedo-y gown." "Each sleek look Saunders sent down his fall runway was more paneled, slinky, and intricately pleated than the last — and we adored them all," Fashion Week Daily enthused. Saunders, it seems, can do no wrong, except in the eyes of the New York Times' Cathy Horyn. "[M]any of the outfits looked over-designed, with tabs and bits added to shoulders and sun-ray pleated panels attached to skirts," she complained. WWD disagreed: "Even the slouchy coats, embellished with exposed zippers and topped with voluminous fur hoods, looked polished."
Browse the Jonathan Saunders slideshow.
Critics couldn't agree which era Donna Karan was referencing in this collection, but the consensus was that the clothes felt out of time. Suzy Menkes and Style.com both saw sixties British boutique Biba in the dolly-girl looks, full sleeves, and short rounded hems in granny florals. Menkes called the look both "ho-so-familiar!" and "yesterday's trend," and Style.com said "it's a shape from seasons past that doesn't seem ready for revival just yet" (while admitting that some dresses will be "a sure hit"). British Vogue, on the other hand, thought Karan was channeling Erin Fetherston, Anna Sui, and "Seventies-inspired haute hippie wear," but shared the sense of disappointment, lamenting, "where was the edgy, empowered DKNY woman we've come to know and love?" Finally, WWD agreed on the seventies references but found them oddly contemporary, claiming that Karan captured "the spirit of modern young women."
Watch a slideshow of the DKNY collection.
Diane Von Furstenberg
A surprise departure from her usual look, Diane Von Furstenberg's latest was appreciated across the board; dubbing the collection "Foreign Affair," the designer channeled thirties Berlin for a wandering femme-fatale look. It worked well for DVF, and Fashion Wire Daily went ahead and proclaimed that this was "without doubt Von Furstenberg's best collection" since her arrival in the tents, citing the slimmer silhouettes, "jaunty styling," and accessories like "taut, long leather gloves." WWD picked up on a "Dietrich fixation," with "a strong, polished aura that starts with a coat or jacket, or both, belted over layers beneath." Translation: dark and smoky sportswear, with "languid trousers" and a notable graphic jacquard jacket. Style.com praised DVF's surprise transition (the Guardian noticed there wasn't a wrap dress in sight — "big news!"). Predicting sportswear (and the forties) to be a "big New York trend," Style.com cited a flaring A-line skirt, trim cardigan, bow-front blouse, and slinky slips — the look was all about the cinched layering.
Peruse a slideshow of the Diane Von Furstenberg collection.

Dig a Rain Garden
Harvest the rain passively and give water time to creep into the soil, instead of run to the ocean. Protect our watershed from harmful run-off while creating attractive garden habitat.
A rain garden is a simple design element you can incorporate into your yard that collects rain water instead of allowing it to runoff your property. It creates an attractive garden habitat, but also slows down water, recharges the aquifer, reduces runoff and pollution and protects our watershed. Not sure how to get started? We've got you covered. Wait for the next bout of rain and follow these simple steps.
Materials and Tools
- Shovel
- Water loving plants
- Rain!
- On a rainy day, observe how storm water (fallen rain water) and runoff naturally flows through your space. The areas where the streams meet up and create larger streams are the areas you'll want to consider for your rain garden's location.
- Select a location and prepare the area for planting your rain garden.
- Be sure to start simple, too. Sculpting a shallow depression around a single existing tree can serve as a start to a rain garden.
- Choose plants common to your local climate with deep root systems to allow them to absorb as much stormwater as possible. Native perennials and shrubs are often ideal choices. Some examples for Southern California include Creeping Wildrye (Leymus triticoides), Yerba Mansa (Anemopsis californica) S, NZ bush sedge S (Carex solandri), Basket Rush (Juncus textilis)
- Plant your rain garden, and look forward to reducing the pollution reaching nearby waterways by as much as 30%!
Don't forget to mulch your rain garden with at least a couple of inches of wood chips to help absorb stormwater, while keeping moisture in and weeds down!
About the Program
The Water Effect is an initiative empowering Californians to cut our daily water footprint in half.

A manufactroversy can be a form of denialism: pretending that a controversy exists over something which is, in fact, not in debate by anyone who has the slightest grasp of the facts, but which a number of people wish to deny for religious, political, or other reasons. The usual motive for this is to attempt to give the appearance that the facts are still up for debate, à la anti-environmentalism. Another kind is the manufactured "scandal": blowing a non-issue out of proportion.
Often related to the "tell both sides" method of reporting, where only one side has any evidence, so the reporter searches out a crank just so they can tell another side.
This concept is also illustrated through what one editor would describe as "fill-in-the-blank outrage" by Christian fundamentalists in the United States. Examples of this include fundie leaders suddenly declaring things as diverse as environmentalism, feminism, gay rights, universal health care, etc. to be threats to Christianity, unscriptural, unholy, or some other version of "wahhh" when there is no indication that Christians as a whole considered these things threatening over the nearly 2000 years of the religion's existence. Until just now, of course.[3]
The term "swiftboating" is often used in American media due to the bullshit smear campaign against John Kerry launched by the organization "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth."[4]
[edit] Common examples
[edit] Most damaging
- Intelligent design and other aspects of the creation-evolution debates.
- Various claims of vaccines causing harm.
- Climategate
- Holocaust denial
- Gamergate: Women being involved with the gaming community in ways other than sexually appealing cosplay. Don't expect this one die anytime soon; too many people have launched their careers thanks to Gamergate.
- Truthers and the Ground Zero Mosque
- GMOs and Monsanto[5]
- Racialism. One would've expected this one to die in the 20th century, but thanks to the alt-right, even phrenology is on the rise again.
- North Korea hacked Sony as revenge for the awful movie, The Interview, which is about an assassination of Kim Jong-un by the CIA.[6]
[edit] Half-assed stunts
- Obama citizenship denial. He produced his birth certificate, so they demanded his long-form certificate. When he coughed that one up, it was deemed to be fake. A double false flag operation, oldest trick in the Kenyan book.
- Whitewater. Real estate has never been so riveting.
- Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky sex scandal. Kennedy had a chorus line of hoochies (including Marylin Monroe, no less) coming out of the WH. Bill got one blowjob and immediately got caught. We think this is a metaphor for something, but we can't figure out what.
- Benghazi, which while a real and terrible event, was vaguely-gestured at as a scandal without much attention to what the exact wrongdoing was.
- Chemtrails
- The War on Christmas
- Wind Turbine Syndrome
- Non-issue yawners or other non-events being turned into the scandal of the week (see Ward Churchill, ACORN,
DickDuck Dynasty), particularly by 24-hour rolling news coverage needing to fill time when there's no real news from your locale and no desire to pay attention to the rest of the world.*Any of many other moral panics, too numerous to list.
To take the first three examples, in order: evolution (together with common descent) is one of the best-tested and most successful scientific theories. There is no evidence that vaccines cause autism[7] or any other harm, and overwhelming evidence that they save lives. Global warming is happening and can be measured, and the cause has consistently been proven to be human. However, how to mitigate it remains up for debate; interestingly, denialists tend to ignore this part.
