Test – My Bio

I quickly put together a Calorie Calculator. The calculators that Google suggested weren't really that good, so why not make my own?
First it calculates the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). It is a measurement of the number of calories needed to perform your body's most basic (basal) functions, like breathing, circulation and cell production. It depends on gender, age, height and weight. There is a standard formula for this, so I only had to copy it.
Since I only made this for my own use, the inputs are in metric units. However, it is interesting to learn my height in inches and weights in pounds, so I made it show these automatically.
The second part asks for how many minutes you spend on each of ten activity levels. The scale starts with simple tasks like watching TV and driving, while medium levels are walking and bicycling and the scale ends with hard exercise. I didn't see such a scale in other calculators, and to me it makes more sense to group activities this way.
The final result is your basal metabolism plus energy burned on activities.
I also wanted to compare different units, so it outputs kJ and kWh along with kcal. The equivalent amount of body fat and assumed wattage are included as well. This all fairly easy physics, and interesting for comparison.
The job took me a few hours. I did it on my spare time to practice HTML5, JavaScript and CSS.
Counterparty is perhaps the world's only database not controlled by anyone. It's decentralized. It just exists. To create a copy of this database you run a specific script, and it's in everyone's interest to stick to the same implementation. This is the nature of social consensus. To make a record to the database you must send a specially encoded Bitcoin dummy transaction. The rules are such that a financial ecosystem evolves from it.
Hard to grasp? I bet!
One feature of Counterparty is that you can issue an asset which can be thought of as a stock. Each asset has a unique name (or ticker). You can only register a name that no one has claimed before. There is a second-hand market for names, and some people have rushed to pick up good names in hope of selling them later.
I've played around with this database a bit in SQLite Studio.
An SQL query (1) shows that the rate of registrations was low to begin with, and that there have been a few booms of new name registrations.
Registering a name is not free. The protocol has a native currency, XCP, and each registration costs half an XCP. At the peak of registrations, one XCP was less than a dollar. There is also a free numerical asset class, but it is not included in this graph. The concept of Block Height is simply a unit of time. 20,000 blocks is a bit less than 5 months.
To those who wonder who receives the XCP fee when nobody controls the database … the answer is no one. The XCP is "burned" or destroyed. There are 2.6 million XCP and this amount decreases as fees are burned.
Another SQL search (2) counted the number of assets by first letter.
Not too interesting, I suppose. Just a technical note – regular named assets start with letters B-Z and numerical assets consist of the letter A followed by a number.
Finally I grouped asset names by length (3).
The rule is that a regular asset must be 4-12 characters. In the very beginning they could be up to 14 characters. Numerical assets begin with A followed by a really large number. Total length must be 18-21 characters. The exact requirement is a number between 95,428,956,661,682,177 and 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Welcome to the world of crypto!
These graphs aren't that exciting but they illustrate the powers of Counterparty and SQLite. Below are the actual searches I made:
SELECT block_index AS block, COUNT(*) AS total FROM assets WHERE substr(asset_name,1,1) NOT LIKE 'A' GROUP BY block/100
The last statement grouped them by 100's of blocks. The actual block displayed was the last block with a registration, e.g. 281244 for the 281200's. In LibreOffice Calc I simply took the floor of this number divided by 100 and the multiplied by 100 to get the round 100's I wanted. Finally I made a column with accumulated registrations for the graph.
SELECT substr(asset_name,1,1) AS first_letter, COUNT(*) AS total FROM assets GROUP BY first_letter
SELECT length(asset_name) AS asset_length, COUNT(*) AS total FROM assets GROUP BY asset_length
I recently built a downloader for Grotte Investments. It gathers data from Morningstar and Yahoo Finance. It loops through thousands of stocks from around the globe, extracts the specified data and outputs a CSV file. It can then be easily imported to Excel.
When making a downloader lots of things can and will go wrong. Connection problems, server problems, missing data, wrongly formatted data, unknown encoding – all potentially add complexity. Typically you need to run a downloader a few times just to sort out all the bugs.
Having said that, mastering the art of building downloaders is great fun. For this downloader the challenge was actually to understand the logic behind Morningstar's website. The data was not included in the source code. The data feed was gathered by a JavaScript within the source. The next challenge was to link Morningstar's and Yahoo's ticker symbols. It's not too difficult but it just took some time. Apart from this, the coding wasn't that difficult.
If it were my first time doing this, it would maybe take 100 hours to code. Now it only took me around 10 hours to get everything right. The next time I aim for 5!
Yup, my project won the 1st price in the Devparty competition February 2016. It was an open competition where anyone could submit their project for the Counterparty Bitcoin platform. Counterparty adds financial instruments to the existing Bitcoin system.
My project was initially a toolbox, called CounterTools, for recovering passwords, timestamping files, sending in bulk, and a few other features I missed in existing software. During the project I realized it would be feasible to make a full blown Bitcoin wallet.
In this blog I will describe the coding experience, not details of the actual project. If you are curious about the project, go try the CounterTools DEMO online. If you want to go one step further and make your own wallet, you must download it from GitHub.
I did not use a developer environment. All coding was written in Notepad++. It's better than Microsoft's Notepad but it does not auto-complete, nor warn about bugs. All it does is color the syntax. It's a bit helpful. For debugging I used Firefox's developer tools. It worked okay, and I didn't want to waste time during the competition to learn a new IDE. After it was all over I did some research, and found Brackets to be a good, free alternative.
A secondary goal of this project was to make it developer friendly. I want others to build on what I have built. If you are interested in creating something Counterparty related, please drop a comment.
The financial platform Counterparty* has a rather eccentric stock ticker format. It starts with the character 'A' followed by a very, very large number between 95 quadrillion and 18 quintillion!
How can you verify if a string is a valid stock ticker?
Logically, the solution should be very simple. The string must start with 'A' and if the remaining string is an integer in the specified range, then the ticker is valid.
However, this does not work unless the integer format is unsigned 64 bit. In fact, the exact upper limit is 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 or 264 − 1, which is the max value for this integer format.
So far, so good. Now what if I tell you that you must write the algorithm in JavaScript and it does not support numbers of this magnitude.
One solution is to import a library, like BigInteger. It's doable but it adds some complexity (it adds both developer time and download time) since an additional file must be referenced and loaded.
The solution I came up with circumvents this problem by splitting the number in two. Each piece is small enough to be handled by JavaScript's native number format.
To easier understand the logic, let's pretend the numbers were much smaller. The ticker could have a value between 678 to 2345 but the max integer were 99. Then the way to approach this problem would be:
Some prior tests are assumed, and the below code shows the exact function that solves the initial problem.
function isValidNumericAsset(asset) { //'A' followed by a really large number //Min = 26^12+1 = 95,428,956,661,682,177 //Max = 2^64-1 = 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 if (asset.length>21) return false; if (asset.length<18) return false; if (asset[0] != 'A') return false; if (asset.substring(0,2) == 'A0') return false; if (asset.substring(1).match(/[^0-9]/) != null) return false; if (asset.length==18 && asset.substring(1,9)<95428956) return false; if (asset.length==18 && asset.substring(1,9)==95428956 && asset.substring(9)<661682177) return false; if (asset.length==21 && asset.substring(1,10)>184467440) return false; if (asset.length==21 && asset.substring(1,10)==184467440 && asset.substring(10)>73709551615) return false; return true; }
Learning a new programming language is not that hard. The real challenge is converting your old code into a new language, as well as getting used to a new programming environment.
Ever since I learned how to make Windows applications in Visual Basic. NET in 2005, it has been my primary language. I learned all the basics at a university course and soon I coded small apps for stock trading. These programs analyzed the market in real time, alarmed me when events were triggered and downloaded daily price data. For every new program that I made, I copied code from previous programs. Therefore it was natural to stick with VB.NET.
VB.NET is by the way a very good language, and I don't know any better programming environment than Microsoft's Visual Studio. The notion that Visual Basic is slow or too simple may have been true with VB6 fifteen years ago, but the modern VB.NET is just as good as any other language today.
There's only one big drawdown. Few programmers use VB. And when I program I increasingly rely on Google and Stack Overflow. The more common a languages is, the more support it has. This is the reason I want to change my primary language.
My decision has come to C#.
C# (pronounced cee sharp) is another Microsoft language. Its syntax is similar to C, but it compiles to the same machine code as VB. Since Visual Studio has identical interface for VB and C#, I do not have to spend time getting used to a new environment. Whenever I make a new program, I will use C# unless I'm in rush. Whatever code I need to recycle I will need to convert from VB. This will slow me down a little bit, so I will still use VB.NET whenever time is a priority. Later, as I get more and more code in C#, it will increasingly be the language of choice. Eventually I will be more efficient in C# than I'm in VB.NET today, since it's easier to find online resources for C#.
Why C# and not Java?
Java is the most used language. The reasons I still didn't choose Java are
Here's a list of the languages most in demand as of 2016:
Yet, despite selecting C# as my primary language, I think it is good to know many languages and be familiar with several IDE's. Among all the languages listed above I have some experience with all of them except IOS and Ruby. Java will always carry a special position. The summer of 2009 I took a course in Java at the Harvard Summer School. It was an excellent experience where I learned to write code directly in a text editor and even on paper. That's a great way learning since you cannot rely on auto-complete. However, it's not recommended for real development. Unless there's a better IDE than Visual Studio for Java, I rather use C# and VB.

During The Game Awards 2016, BioWare debuted a new Mass Effect: Andromeda gameplay trailer. The trailer features combat, dialogue and more.
The Andromeda trailer was just one of several big reveals made during the annual industry awards event.
EA's football sim, FIFA 17, introduces the 'Rainbow Kit' to the game's Ultimate Team mode. EA has made the kit available as part of pro-LGBT campaign 'Rainbow Laces.'
The freebie has angered some gamers who have accused the company of trying to push a 'political agenda.'
Country living RPG Stardew Valley has been given an Xbox One release date. The game's developer Eric Barone (ConcernedApe) confirmed the release date alongside a new trailer, showcasing examples of Stardew Valley gameplay.
The announcement follows a confirmation this summer that Stardew Valley would be coming to consoles, including the PS4 and the Wii U.
LGBTQ adventure game Queer Quest: All in a Gay's Work has been successfully greenlit on Steam. Steam users voted in favour of releasing the game on the platform, greenlighting it in 37 days.
An indie "point-and-clit" (point and click) game from Queermo Games, Queer Quest is being developed for PC and Mac.
League of Legends introduces a new female character called 'Camille, the Steel Shadow.' Developer Riot Games explains that Camille is ideally played in a solo lane and that she is "great at split-pushing," though she isn't ideal for initiating teamfights.
Camille is the sixth and final new champion to be added to the game this year. Her introduction follows the addition of other new characters such as Taliyah, the Stoneweaver and Aurelion Sol, the Star Forger.
An Australian college has announced its plans to offer up to $500,000 worth of scholarships to film and game creators. Half of the scholarships will be reserved for women and underrepresented groups.
The scholarships look to foster the best creative talent as well as to help to improve the game and film industries' lack of diversity.
A new game bundle hopes to raise awareness about transgender health issues. The Action for Trans Health game bundle also aims to raise money for Action for Trans Health, an organisation that works to improve trans people's access to health care.
The bundle launched as part of Trans Awareness Month (November), an annual event that seeks to educate and encourage action on trans rights and issues.
Riot Games co-head of eSports Whalen Rozelle says that eSports is a "fantastic place" for equality and opportunity. Rozelle also explains why the developer has no plans to make womens-only competitions for its hugely popular MOBA, League of Legends.
Rozelle's comments on diversity in eSports follow several other company's initiatives on that front. EA will do its 'best' to support female eSports players, while Intel and ESL's AnyKey also aims to promote diversity in professional gaming.
EA CEO Andrew Wilson discusses diversity in games, saying that "representation is really important." The executive also details how EA is working to make its own workforce more diverse.
Wilson's comments come not long after fellow EA executive Peter Moore said that diversity is at the 'core' of what the company believes.
Ubisoft's new cyber sandbox game Watch Dogs 2 pokes fun at Silicon Valley's race problem. The game, which features an African-American protagonist, makes multiple references to the tech industry's lack of racial diversity.
Previously, the actor who plays lead character Marcus Holloway said that Watch Dogs 2 "represents African-Americans in the tech industry," noting that characters in entertainment rarely reflect their experiences.

Israel doesn't want 'peace', only more 'pieces' of Palestine and more of American taxpayers money $$$$
Friday, December 27, 2013
Israel does not want Peace. It seems Israel doesn't want to make the necessary sacrifices for peace but expects it from Palestine. Time and time again, when a peace deal is set , Israel makes demands that are unreasonable and avoids the most basic prerequisite for any just peace—an end to the occupation. ~ Yaz

text: Hey guys and girls, been reading through the forums on a almost daily basis since the start of the year and have taken the knowledge under my belt, many great posts from raven etc have gone a long way. i ride a gt650r, which i believe is one of the better bikes i can get whilst being on a restricted licence, i would love to get a r1 3 years from now I started riding when i went on a hunting trip with my uncles on a old honda 500cc dirt bike (did over 800km and spend from 6 am to 5pm each day for a week), it all sorta just clicked as ive been driving manual cars for awhile etc. doing 100km/ph (interesting if anyof you have ridden through sand etc) in outback australia conditions (this place was over 2hrs past tilpa in NSW, as it was private property we ended up just riding in shorts / shirt and just the trusty sunnies to keep the dirt out of the eyes - and gun on the front rack obviously) certainly improved my riding - being previously against riding on the road (due to the sheer amount of idiots out there) quickly changed my mind // the fun and experience i got during this time was too great to give away. As such i feel lucky enough i havnt had any of the problems or worries that most new riders have, i.e riding at speed etc. i've even had mates who have been riding comment on how well i ride and how comfortable i am on the roads, which is awesome to hear from them. I normally ride to work in penrith and back up the hwy through the blue mountains, a few times ive been passed by riders and they have given the wave, good sence of comradery - hopefully they are on here so we could catchup. will be keeping an eye out for any group rides would be nice to riding in a larger group. Thanks for your time Matt.

Excerpt from Credit of the Government: Speech of Hon. D. W. Voorhees, of Indiana, in the Senate of the United States, January 15, 1878 Denunciation is now their principal weapon. There is no epithet however base, no insinuation however infamous that is not of daily use against all who dare to differ in opinion with them. A curious spectacle is presented on this subject by a large portion of the eastern press, here and there aided by a newspaper in the West. Their columns reek from day to day with clamorous abuse of all who venture to believe as I do that, to a great extent, our whole financial system is an organized crime against the laboring, tax-paying men and women of the United States. Those who think as I do that a great work of financial reform is demanded in order to secure the people from slavery in fact, if not in name, are denounced in the same spirit, and in the exact language with which every old criminal abuse in government, throughout all history, has sought to paralyze the work of reformation and beat back the tide of human progress. Wherever in the annals of the human race unholy avarice has built its strongholds and privileged classes have intrenched themselves- wherever superstition has held the human mind in bondage for the benefit of spiritual tyrants- wherever man in any way has had unlawful mastery over his fellowman and gathered in what belonged to another, there the same cry which we now hear has always been raised against any intrusion or disturbance of established and venerable iniquity. Nor does the parallel stop here. The great plea of the present hour for the continuation of wrong and injustice is that good faith requires it. Those who, finding a monstrous evil imbedded in the laws of their country, wish to eradicate it by peaceful legislation are at once and with the utmost fury assaulted as violators of the public faith, enemies of the national honor, and worse if possible than common swindlers. It matters not how deep and burning the outrage may be or how fraudulently it may have crept into our statutes, good faith, in the estimation of those who profit by the outrage, requires it to remain there forever, though it should aid day by day the ghastly work of ruin that now pervades the land. When the peasantry of France, in 1789, worn out with the extortions of five centuries, arose against king, priests, and nobles, they were told that they were breaking the faith of the nation which had been pledged a thousand times for their silent submission to any wrong, in person or property, however horrible or indescribable. Whenever the starving people of Ireland, in the dreary centuries of the past, have grown uneasy in their bondage and struggled against their fetters, they have been fiercely reminded that the good faith of England is solemnly pledged to maintain existing laws and perpetual abuses. Sir, this plea, so loud now in our ears, has been invoked in behalf of every wickedness that ever cursed the world. The usurper invokes it to protect the throne he has stolen, as soon as he is seated. The tyrant invokes it to shelter his prerogative, and his nobility in turn invoke it in order to live in ease and splendor off the labor of others. It is my purpose on this occasion, however, to show what the obligations of good faith require of us on the great question of our finances, and to arraign those who have systematically broken it whenever their interest prompted them to do so. It is my purpose also to show that while it is of the highest importance to maintain our financial credit, it can only be done by the Government keeping all its contracts and obligations with its own citizens. This issue has been presented of late in a manner so persistent and offensive, especially to western men and western interests, that it shall now be met as far as my humble capacity enables me to meet it. Sir, I appeal to the history of our financial legislation.

"I saw this pattern and thought it would be great to go in my gift tins for my homemade spa sets for Christmas. I started the pattern but kept having trouble with the puff stitch. When I try to pull through the loop the hook gets stuck and pull a strand or two out making it look un-neat. Is there a way to prevent this? Could it be the yarn I am using?"
"I love this pattern for making dishcloths! It is so simple and it's so easy to remember. It makes a great,durable dishcloth. Does anyone tried this pattern with that new yarn that is made for making dishcloths? I think it might be a rayon blend. I'm going to try it next time I need dishcloths."
"This is a great beginner project, it was easy to follow and gave great instruction. I was able to work up several of these for co-workers who thought it was so cute. I am going to make several more for my home for company to use when they come over and have coffee."
"These spiral beaded trees are so pretty! For extra sparkle, I am going to place a battery tea light candle in the center of the spiral. Several of these trees would look great placed within a strand of twinkle or small rice lights on a mantle or table center piece!"
"That's a great idea!"

- Fuseworks™ Polar Fuse Glass Casting Medium - Primary
- 1 - 1 1/2" pin back
- Small Mixing Cup
- Mixing Spoon or Small Spatula
- E-6000® Adhesive
In a disposable cup, mix 1 tablespoon of white Polar Fuse Glass Casting Medium with a small amount of water, preferably distilled, until mixture is the consistency of wet sand. Pour the slurry into the double wing mold and even it out. Tap the mold to allow the air bubbles to rise to the surface and wick away excess moisture with a paper towel. Place in the freezer for 20 - 30 minutes.
Cut a 2" X 2" piece of kiln paper. Remove the lid from the Fuseworks™ Kiln. Place the kiln paper on the kiln base. Remove mold from freezer, remove the wings from the mold and immediately place in the center of the kiln paper. Allow to rest 20 - 30 minutes.
Carefully set the base with glass inside the microwave and cover with kiln lid. Fuse at 100% for 2 minutes and using Hot Mitts, carefully lift the lid and check the fusing progress. If it is not fully fused, continue to microwave at 15 second increments until the glass slightly glowing and detail is still visible.
Remove kiln from the microwave, using Hot Mitts and place it on a heat resistant surface. Cool the kiln for at least 30 minutes WITH THE LID ON. CAUTION: Removing the lid or peeking under the lid during the cooling stage may result in your piece cracking. Glass remains hot for a long time, handle with great care.
Repeat steps 1 - 4 in blue for the dove and red for the cross. Each additional piece can be mixed, frozen and thawed in the time it takes for the previous piece to cool. Remember to allow kiln to completely cool before reusing.
- When glass has cooled, apply E-6000® to a pin back and secure the wings to it. Apply E-6000® to the back of the cross and adhere it to the front of the wings and allow drying. Next, apply E-6000® to the back of the dove and secure it to the front middle of the cross, allow drying.

Superior Hiking Trail Earns $75,000 from Outdoors Retailer REI
One of the big beneficiaries of a national contest from outdoor retailer REI is right here in our backyard.
One of the big beneficiaries of a national contest from outdoor retailer REI is right here in our backyard.
The 14th Annual Lake Superior Dragon Boat Festival is set to launch at Barkers Island on August 21st and 22nd.
A celebration is in the works to celebrate the Great Lake that's in our own backyard. An afternoon of free family fun is being planned for Sunday, July 19 at Barker's Island Festival Park to celebrate Lake Superior Day.
Summer is here and it is getting hot, and many Northlanders are heading to the beach. We don't have the ocean but we do have the biggest fresh water lake in the world and with it comes many dangers including Riptides or Rip Currents.
Jared Munch is a very ambitious man on a mission, he wants to paddleboard all around Lake Superior, a mere 1,300 miles.
A day of gusty east winds made for perfect conditions for a group of surfers to catch a wave off Brighton Beach on Lake Superior this afternoon.
At around noon on Monday (April 13), the Twin Ports welcomed the first ocean-going ship into the harbor for the 2015 shipping season.
This spring's constant back-and-forth between 30 degree and 60 degree days is making it seem like it is taking forever for spring to finally show up. Just how far off from average are we from seeing our lawns and trees greening up for the season?
The shipping season is underway for Duluth, having already seen some early regional traffic out of the harbor. While some 'lakers' are already making their way around the Great Lakes, the first ocean-going 'saltie' of the year has yet to traverse the seaway and enter the Twin Ports. When will the first saltie of the year arrive? Your guess could earn you a prize!
As part of an annual fundraising endeavor, the Lake Superior Maritime Museum Association is offering the chance to win a Lake Superior cruise aboard the 1,000 foot ore boat Edwin H. Gott.
In the world of news reporting, it's important to check your facts. After the local news media buzz about the pillar next to Uncle Harvey's Mausoleum (or "The Cribs") disappearing from the Canal Park Shoreline of Lake Superior earlier this winter, someone decided to capitalize on the buzz and have a little fun with Photoshop and fool some people; including one TV news department.
People hoping to see the Apostle Islands Ice Caves this season had a very short window. Unseasonably warm temperatures and forecasted strong winds for Monday night have prompted park officials to close the caves for the season.

Any ideas for using orange marmalade? I bought a pint jar of orange marmalade for a specific recipe which we decided we didn't like. I don't really care for marmalade on toast, biscuits, etc. so I wondered if there's other ways I can use it? I haven't tried it on the kids yet and they might like it on toast but if they don't I'd hate for it to go to waste.
Thanks for any recommendations and recipes.
Debbie from IL
Marmalade makes a terrific glaze for ham, or you can warm it and pour it over cut up fresh fruit for a nice compote.
There is a recipe for a Marmalade Cake on this web site that sounds great http://www.cakemixdoctor.com/ask/ne ... /issues/pagemaker.cgi?1152714327.txt
Marmalade makes a great glaze for baked chicken.
Go to www.recipezaar.com and type in
orange marmalade, there's recipes for cakes,
cookies, muffins etc.
Put in greased or floured 1lb loaf tin. (I use non stick cake tin liners which makes it easy to remove cake, too!) 1.25 hours (less in convection oven)
Source: Might have been a Bero cookbook recipe but I can't remember!
By Skinnyjinny from Scotland
Bake at 325 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean and tops are golden brown. Run a knife around the edges; carefully invert cakes onto dessert plates. Combine marmalade and remaining lemon juice; drizzle over warm cakes.

63. ASPCA: Stop euthanizing pit bulls!
Without even seeing whether or not the dog is capable of being rehabillitated, they put it down. Puppies (like the 12 week old ones rescued by the ASPCA, NYPD Vice Enforcement Division and Bronx District Attorney's office, who have scarring from being 'fought') are still young enough to be rehabillitated to the point of being a house pet. I take it into my own hands, I own two american pit bull terriers. One is a blue named Duke, who is 8 months old and bought from a reputable breeder.
The other one, a piebald with pitbull named Rosco, was taken from a dog fighter. He had escaped a fighting ring and went on the streets. We took him in in our own hands. He now is so freindly with other animals. He loves to play play play play, but very gentally. I think that not all dogs can be rehabillitated, but a majority can. I understand the money issue, and time issue, but they would find a way to rehabillitate a Golden Retriever thtat is aggressive, a Labrador, a Great Dane, a Beagle; i can keep going all day. I have seen them say "we will find away to rehabillitate this dog and find it a home" when the dog is far more aggressive then some pit bulls rescued off of the streets, fighting rings etc. The whole fact about "worrying if the dog will get the right home" lingers i nthe air also.
Since pit bull type dogs are so eager to please, strong, agile, athletic and smart, many thugs like them for fighting. These dogs have stamina, Rosco (the one we rescued) can go for hours, running, jumping, swimming, everything, including chasing a ball! Duke (my blue who is more bull dog type, thick and at 8 months is 70 pounds, and Rosco is 72 pounds and he is 4 years!) is so lazy, and flops down panting within 10 minutes of play; depsite how hot it is that day. I think that it is the SPCA's or person who is placing that dog into the correct home, to do home checks, and check ups on that dog. Every month or so, do check ups at the house. If you think theyre sketchy, or live in the "rough" part of town where the dog could be used negativley (i.e. intimidation, gaurding, attack dog, fighting dog etc.) pass over the people! You cannot just go giving this dog breed to anyone, but that doesnt mean "put them all to sleep because people are idiots and irresponsible"!
Now, what does banning breeds solve? Irresponsible ownershipe? No. dog fatalities? Maybe by 1%. Over population in pounds? No, irresponsible people, i.e. thugs etc., will do anything to get a dog breed they want, even if it is breaking the law. I think their should be no laws on dog breeds, but laws regulating who can own certain breeds, and who can own an animal. Maybe their should be a test you ...have to take for 1 year. 1 year you have to do things in the community proving that you are responsible, and not an abuser. You get pulled over? No dog. You get arrested? Certainly no dog. If anything bad were to happen to you in that 1 year period, than no dog until you can prove that you are responsible enough too own one.
If they want a head strong dog, than they should not only practice and show responsibility, but they should make out a game plan saying, Okay the dog will have to sit here, not dash out the door, walk good on a leash, not challenge me, not dominate me, and not bully or push me around. Just because a breed of dog bites, or over populates, doesn't mean put them all to sleep and ban the breed. Say someone had 32 kids, and the parents died... The 32 kids had to go to an orphanage, and some kids have mental problems, and anger problems..what do we do? Put them all to sleep? Keep them locked up? No, try to get them better. Would the government ban parents for breeding, or owning children that could one day end up a thug, a murderer, a rapist etc.? No, they just say "raise it right and it will act right!". Than why cant it be the same with animals?! If an african american person shot somebody, it is not right to go around be skeptical of every african americans just because one shot somebody.
If a Caucasian person rapes someone, is it acceptable to go around being afraid of caucasions? No, the answer is NO. If racism and genocide is illegal, than why are we still doing it? Not necessarily to people, but to dog breeds. This needs to end, if it isent judging someone for body weight, color, sexual orientation or anything, its judging an animal for the breed it is.
BLAME THE OWNER, NOT THE ANIMAL. BLAME THE DRIVER, NOT THE CAR. BLAME THE SHOOTER, NOT THE GUN. BLAME THE PEOPLE, NOT THE WORLD This has been constantly making me and family and friends upset, euthanizing E.V.E.R.Y pit bull rescued. It upsets me, especially this latest case (link posted here---------->) http://www.lifewithdogs.tv/2012/06/nypd-breaks-up-brutal-bronx-dogfighting-ring/ will result in death for the dogs. This is my duty of being an advocate of the breed, to save these dogs... here is a link to my page on facebook, dedicated to the breed, please like share and post what ever you like... afraid of the breed? We will help you not be... have questions of anything? Feel free to ask us!
Thanks, the lives of those pit bulls and the pit bulls of tomorrow, are in our hands.
Since its first episode, iCarly has become one of the best shows on Nickelodeon. Produced by Dan Schneider, whose other credentials include All That, The Amanda Show, Zoey 101, and the newest production: Victorious.
Sadly, Dan Schneider has announced that the 4th season will be the Series Finale of iCarly. A show that has dominated Nickelodeon for the past 5 years. We can not let this happen.
The magnificent evergreen forest on Mt. Zlatibor is letting go under strikes of chainsaws and heavy machinery.
With pine trees taller than 15 meters and older than 70 years, stretching over 500 acres of forest land it is a predominantly influential Nature Park and self preserving ecosystem on Zlatibor.
Planted immediately upon the end of the Second World War it bore status of protected natural wealth and had become a habitat to numerous animal and plant species.
Today it's a host to a large number of families of squirrels and rabbits, also turtles, moles, hedgehogs, ant colonies, lizard dens and various birds such are robins, woodpeckers, ouzels, owls, wild pigeons, magpies, etc.
Abusing state's law regulations on environmental protection and disregarding obligatory acts of Aarhus Convention the local authorities issued The General Plan according to which the Nature Park is turned into zone of tourism and high commerce.
WARNING: The Nature Park is undergoing heavy deforestation and soil devastation by local Zlatibor authorities and Serbian Orthodox Church. Biodiversity is threatened with extinction as workers and machinery plow through in preparation to build communication and drainage network.
IMPORTANT: Please pay attention to the 5 min documentary below.

66. Save our Cemetery at Pine Mountain, Qld
A large memorial stone commemorates the tragic death of a young (22 year old) man who was accidedntly shot whilst hunting for food. His grave is hidden in the overgrowth in the middle of this cemetery. Other members of his large family are also buried nearby.
The Pine Mountain Historical Society and members of the local community (including descendants of people buried in the cemetery) are opposed to the Uniting Church bulldozing the cemetery and subdividing the land for resale.
A defining measure of a civilised society is the way it deals with its deceased members.
Please sign our petition and help us save our pioneer cemetery.

67. Preserve Transportation Funding for Arabia Mountain HS
AMHS offers successful programs in Career Pathways, Environmental Science and Engineering and was recognized this week as a "Green-Ribbon School" by the U.S. Department of Education and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The academic dreams and hard work of 891 Arabia Mountain High School students, over 1/2 of our entire student enrollment, are at risk.
These students depend on county bus transportation from the Satellite locations to pursue their academic goals. The elected members of the DeKalb County School Board have decided to eliminate the transportation lifeline for some of the best and brightest students in the DeKalb County School System.
Here are the facts:
AMHS is not accessible by public transportation services like the other high schools on the transportation elimination list.
There are no continuous sidewalks on Browns Mill Road for our students to walk to school, which may put an increased number students at risk along the 45 MPH speed limit state road.
Adding over 800 additional cars to the Browns Mill Road area will create unbelievable gridlock and chaos in an already congested area. Recall the congestion "road rage" incident that occurred last year at the school that resulted in a parent brandishing a weapon on school property.
|From AMHS Traffic - Summary
Consider the safety of the students. With the elimination of transportation options, new and inexperienced 16,17 & 18 years olds will be driving to AMHS in an already traffic intense and congested area.
An increased number of students may remain on campus, unsupervised, at the end of the school day as they wait for parents to arrive after working hours.
Eliminating transportation to AMHS would effectively close our high school, or turn it into a neighborhood school.

The Gray Wolf is a species of wolf recognized as Endangered by the US Government and Extirpated by New York State. This species of wolf's numbers have dropped as low as 150 per state due to destruction of their natural habitat and and hunting wolves for game.
Using donations, our organizations goal is to help spread awareness of the growing issue of this endangered species, and encourage people to help preserve and save these wolves from being killed and lost thanks to human indecency like so many species have been in the past.
69. Stop the extinction of the Polar Bears
If the plans for the Shell oil company go through to drill in the Arctic, the great white bear will succumb to the oil and will officially be eliminated. Moreover, dependence on oil itself has arguably caused carbon emission warming that is destroying the very habitat of many arctic creatures.
70. Return Due Process to Mississippi
~The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr
With the NDAA's indefinite detainment without due process clause, (meaning legally, the Federal Government can arrest anyone for anything at any time secretly) It is time to recognize that Mississippians could lose their right to a fair trial.
With new bills being introduced to take away our first amendment rights, we should be worried about the consequences of disagreeing with any legal policies the government wants to implement.
If there is a suspected terrorist or protester, they should have the right to a fair trial by a jury of their peers to determine if their actions were illegal, and to determine the extent of punishment under law.
71. Save Edgewood Kindergarten Teacher
The number of students will not change within the district, however it has come to my attention that several of our teachers have gotten pink slips.
The board of education is pink slipping by seniority, meaning they will get rid of the newer teachers.
One of them is my son's Kindergarten Teacher at Edgewood Elementary, Miss N. She is a fantastic teacher, with a lot of compassion, enthusiasm and motivation for her job and her students. She is the kind of teachers we need to give our kids a great future. She cares about the school and about our kids. I believe the teachers should be based on ratings versus seniority.
I am calling on all Edgewood parents and residents of Bristol, CT and those that care about it, to please help me save Miss N. from being out of a job at the end of the summer.
Many more teachers have gotten pink slipped I am sure, but the number of students will not change after the summer, this would mean increase in class sizes, which also translates in less one on one time for teacher student interaction, so the ones that are behind already, will fall even further behind. Our kids education and future are on the line here.
Please help save our great teachers!
Thank you!
72. Save Fulford
These buildings are an integral part of Penistone's social history and must be retained for future generations. Other alternatives for use and conversion need to be fully exhausted before this can be allowed to happen.
73. Save Dispatches-Cancel C'est La Vie
C'est La Vie, on the other hand, is a French-language program which focuses on the music and culture of Quebec. C'est La Vie isn't a bad program but Radio-Canada, the national French-language broadcast arm of the CBC, provides identical content. Its loss would not be so keenly felt as that of Dispatches.
Dispatches brings us the world.
Many animals and plants are affected in negative ways and it is hurting our environment, especially our lakes, which will affect our daily life.
και παρότι όπως ανακοινώθηκε ότι το να γίνει αλλαγή σχεδίων και να παραμείνει το πάρκο αντί να γίνει στην θέση του πάρκο σκύλων (όπως είναι προγραμματισμένο) δεν αλλάζει χρηματικά την δαπάνη η το χρονοδιάγραμμα των έργων, δεν δίνει κανένας το πράσινο φως να σταματήσουν οι εργασίες.
Το πάρκο του ¨Φωκά¨ είναι το πρώτο πάρκο στην Ελλάδα σχεδιασμένο και κατασκευασμένο αποκλειστικά για πατίνια (skateboard).
Κατασκευάστηκε με πρωτοβουλία του Δήμου Θεσσαλονίκης το 1984-85 και είναι φτιαγμένο από μπετόν.
Αν και το άθλημα του skateboard δεν ήταν ακόμα ευρέος γνωστό στην Ελλάδα εκείνη την εποχή παρόλα αυτά ο Δήμος Θεσσαλονίκης μπόρεσε να οραματιστή την εξελικτική πορεία του αθλήματος και με την κίνηση του αυτή κατάφερε να μεταδώσει το όραμα του στους νέους ξεκινώντας έτσι μια καινούργια εποχή για την πορεία του skateboard στην χώρα μας.
Παρόλο που το πάρκο ονομαζόταν εξαρχής πάρκο Φαλήρου, λόγο της περιοχής στην οποία άνηκε, στην πορεία των χρόνων υιοθέτησε το όνομα ¨Φωκά¨ μιας και τo κομμάτι του πάρκου που ήταν για πατίνια αποτελούσε προέκταση του παιδότοπου ¨Φωκά¨ που ήταν δωρεά του Οδυσσέα Φωκά και από τον οποίο είχε πάρει και το όνομά του.
Μπορεί το πάρκο μην έχει κάτι το ιδιαίτερο κατασκευαστικά και οι αρχικές του κλήσης να έχουν χαλάσει μετά την ανάπλαση του, αλλά όπως και να έχει είναι ένα μοναδικό πάρκο το οποίο εξυπηρετεί όλα τα επίπεδα αθλητών, έχει κυκλικό σχήμα με αποτέλεσμα να μπορούν να αθλούνται πολλά παιδιά ταυτόχρονα, είναι αρκετά μεγάλο ώστε να χωράνε επιπρόσθετες κατασκευές/ράμπες για να καλύψουν τις ανάγκες της εκάστοτε εκδήλωσης/διαγωνισμού, είναι το κεντρικότερο πάρκο της παραλίας με ασφαλή διέλευση από τις περισσότερες περιοχές της πόλης και τέλος είναι το πιο πολυσύχναστο πάρκο της παραλίας από την πρώτη μέρα κιόλας της δημιουργίας του.
Το πάρκο του ¨Φωκά¨ ως τώρα έχει ¨μεγαλώσει¨ πάνω από έξη γενιές skateboarders και έχει ¨βγάλει¨ σπουδαίους αθλητές, αλλά αυτή την στιγμή κινδυνεύει μιας και στα σχέδια της πολιτείας είναι να το γκρεμίσει στα πλαίσια της ανάπλαση της παραλίας την Θεσσαλονίκης.
Ο μοναδικός και υγιής τρόπος διεκδίκησης του πάρκου είναι να είμαστε όλοι καθημερινά εκεί παρόν δείχνοντας έτσι ότι το πάρκο έχει ακόμα ζωή και έχει σκοπό να φιλοξενήσει πολλές γενιές ακόμα.
The Clapham Regeneration Project (formerly Clapham Gateway Project) began with Venn St and was due to stretch down to the Old Town to include a landscaped public square and 4 'waiting only' bus stands (parked up). It works logistically, aesthetically and is in tune with the community's need for a smooth bus service. It's TfL approved, funded and all ready to go.
The local community is unaware that this project is under threat.
We URGENTLY need you, the local community, our neighbours and local businesses to show support for the Clapham Regeneration Project. The plans implemented now will be in place for decades to come.

81. Save Australia's Indigenous Languages
Linguistic diversity is part of the diversity of life and the loss of these languages threatens the cultural traditions and the fabric of local knowledge linguistic and biological diversity, making the world more fragile, more vulnerable, with less to hope for in the future.
Article 14.1 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People, to which Australia is a signatory, says:
"Indigenous peoples have the right to establish and control their educational systems and institutions providing education in their own languages, in a manner appropriate to their cultural methods of teaching and learning."

83. Save the University of Canberra's Japanese Language Program
The University of Canberra has proposed to cancel the Japanese Language Program. As a current student of the program I urge everybody to help convince the preservation of such a great university course.
With many students in the middle of their degrees this cancellation would cause so much stress and many problems. Especially for the ones who decided to go to university to specifically learn the Japanese Language.
The Japanese Program has allowed many students to learn the language and culture, which is important in the current globalizing world and especially in our very multicultural Australia. It has helped create great friendships with many Japanese students on exchange at the university and also while benefiting local students, it is a very attractive course for international students.
The university has agreements with several universities in Japan and while we have students anticipating going on exchange in Japan, we also receive many Japanese students to learn English. This is a great way to represent our university and our country.
Please help us maintain this excellent, well developed language course with the best, most encouraging teachers by signing this petition.
The past students, current students and future students appreciate your help.
84. Stop Wisconsin killing Charlotte this Christmas
Charlotte was rescued by Marvin Graaf and is being threatened with up to eight months in jail and a fine of up to $2,000.00. Some 15 months ago a mother deer and her fawn were hit by a car. The mother died and the fawn had been dragged by the car. Only her ear was torn. Charlotte stayed in the same spot where her mother died and wouldn't leave. A neighbor knew a man that had rescued other animals. For four days Charlotte, the fawn, just stood there where her mother died. She wouldn't eat. She was dying. Marvin was able to nurse her back to good health.
In August, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources sent officers to Graaf's home to kill Charlotte. Graaf refused to release Charlotte to them. She threatens no one by staying on Graaf's farm running with her horse friends.
85. Take Shark Fin Soup Off the Menu in BC, Canada
The are the most important species on Earth, simply because they control levels further down on the food pyramid, as tertiary consumers, and therefore the oxygen levels in the ocean, which controls everything on earth, as it covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface.
Please protect this beautiful creature, and ban the act of shark finning. It starts out locally, but when brought to a global perspective can change the situation dramatically. The slaughter of sharks will soon affect you, so please, take action and sign the petition.
Thank you.
Help us get the message to the media house to preserve out heritage our culture our gem.

I (and i'm sure many fans across the world too) are upset about this. If we want to keep this game, we as fans must unite, to save the universe!
88. Demand palm oil be labeled!
The palm oil industry is responsible for destroying thousands of acres of deforestation in other countries. Currently 300 football fields are destroyed in south east Asia every hour for palm oil. And it's not just the vegetation that is being affected! The animals that rely on the forest (such as orangutans) are affected, many orangutans have no place to go when the forest is destroyed. 20 years ago their were more than 300,000 Bornean orangutans in the wild, now their are less than 45,000 in the wild. Orangutans only give birth once in 6 - 10 years therefore it is hard for them to breed as much as they are dying out due to deforestation.
Please go to http://www.wspa.org.uk/wspaswork/orangutans/ for more information on orangutans.
But worst of all the industry does not even label palm oil! Most palm oil is labeled as vegetable oil, therefore many people are unaware that it is in their food. This is taking away our freedom to know what exactly goes into our food, it takes away are choice of whether or not to eat palm oil! This is wrong, they should label palm oil and deliberately point out if it is palm oil free!
89. Save Bayside Community Childcare
This decision was made by the Council without consulting with staff, families or the Bayside community.
These not for profit centres have provided an essential service to Bayside families for over 30 years, and their closure will force 160 families to find alternative care. Private centres have already indicated they will not be able to respond to the overwhelming demand for places.
Disabled and at risk children have not been considered. The centres currently provide priority access for these children and a high standard of care not available elsewhere.
35 employees will lose their jobs – many have worked in the centres for 10 years or more.
The Council has not offered any alternative options for families requiring childcare.
Please sign this petition to show your support in our attempts to prevent the closure of these two much loved and needed facilities.
If you would like to join our mailing list and stay updated, please email us at email@example.com
Thank you.

text: MEN OF MATHEMATICS sophies are violently opposed. It seems unlikely that both can be as wholly right as each appears to believe he is. Hilbert returned to Greece for the beginning of his philosophy of mathematics. Resuming the Pythagorean programme of a rigidly and fully stated set of postulates from which a mathe- matical argument must proceed by strict deductive reasoning, Hilbert made the programme of the postulational development of mathematics more precise than it had been with the Greeks, and in 1899 issued the first edition of his classic on the founda- tions of geometry. One demand which Hilbert made, and which the Greeks do not seem to have thought of, was that the proposed postulates for geometry shall be proved to be self- consistent (free of internal, concealed contradictions). To produce such a proof for geometry it is shown that any contra- diction in the geometry developed from the postulates would imply a contradiction in arithmetic. The problem is thus shoved back to proving the consistency of arithmetic, and there it remains to-day. Thus we are back once more asking the sphinx to tell us what a number is. Both DedeMnd and Frege fled to the infinite - Dedekind with his infinite classes defining irrationals, Frege with his class of all classes similar to a given class defining a cardinal number - to interpret the numbers that puzzled Pythagoras. Hilbert, too, would seek the answer in the infinite which, he believes, is necessary for an understanding of the finite. He is quite emphatic in his belief that Cantorism will ultimately be redeemed from the purgatory in which it now tosses. 'This [Cantor's theory] seems to me the most admirable fruit of the mathematical mind and indeed one of the highest achievements of man's intellectual processes.' But he admits that the paradoxes of Burali-Forti, Russell, and others are not resolved. However, his faith surmounts all doubts: 'No one shall expel us from the paradise which Cantor has created for us.' But at this moment of exaltation Brouwer appears with something that looks suspiciously like a flaming sword hi Ms strong right hand. The chase is on: Dedekind, in the role of Adam, and Cantor disguised as Eve at his side, are already 63$

submitted: January 21, 1981.
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,v.WILLIAM GERALD MCCONNELL, APPELLANT
No. 1503 Philadelphia, 1980, Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, No. 546 Criminal 1979.
J. Wesley Oler, Jr., Assistant Public Defender, Carlisle, for appellant.
Edgar B. Bayley, District Attorney, Carlisle, for Commonwealth, appellee.
Hester, DiSalle and Popovich, JJ.
[ 292 Pa. Super. Page 162]
Appellant, William McConnell, was convicted by a jury on the charge of retail theft. This direct appeal followed the denial of appellant's post-trial motions and entry of the judgment of sentence.
Appellant's first contention is that the evidence was insufficient to prove his intent to steal the goods. The test for determining the sufficiency of the evidence is whether the evidence, viewed in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth as the verdict winner, and drawing all inferences therefrom, is sufficient to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Commonwealth v. McKee, 269 Pa. Super. 568, 410 A.2d 847 (1979). Criminal intent may be proven by circumstantial evidence. Commonwealth v. Bonn, 244 Pa. Super. 315, 368 A.2d 738 (1976).
Here, the Commonwealth's witnesses testified that appellant entered Hess's Department Store and walked directly into the store's domestics department, where he browsed for about five to eight minutes. During that time, appellant picked up a blanket and placed it under his arm.
[ 292 Pa. Super. Page 163]
Appellant then walked into the store's furniture department and after twenty or thirty seconds left the store, the blanket still under his arm. He was apprehended in the parking lot twenty or thirty feet outside the store. Appellant testified that he was daydreaming and had inadvertently left the store without paying for the blanket. He claimed that he was returning to the store to pay for the blanket when he was apprehended. We find the evidence sufficient to prove appellant's intent to commit retail theft.
Appellant's reliance upon Commonwealth v. Shapiro, 223 Pa. Super. 15, 297 A.2d 161 (1972), is misplaced, in Shapiro the defendant's testimony was consistent with the testimony of the Commonwealth's witness. The defendant was in the store for a substantial period of time, and had purchased other items. In the present case, the appellant's testimony contradicted most of the Commonwealth witnesses' testimony. The appellant was in the store only briefly and had not purchased any other items.
Appellant's next several contentions are without merit. Appellant contends that the lower court erred in refusing to instruct the jury (1) that evidence of intoxication could be considered in determining the existence of appellant's intent to steal; (2) that absence of motive was a factor to be considered; and (3) that conflicting testimony was not necessarily to be resolved on the basis of the number of witnesses and amount of evidence.
Appellant's requested instruction concerning intoxication was contrary to 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 308 (Supplementary Pamphlet 1974 to 1980) which states:
Neither voluntary intoxication nor voluntary drugged condition is a defense to a criminal charge, nor may evidence of such conditions be introduced to negative the element of intent of the offense . . . .
Thus, appellant's requested instruction on intoxication was properly refused. We reject appellant's vague argument that § 308 is unconstitutional. Commonwealth v. Hess, 270 Pa. Super. 501,
[ 292 Pa. Super. Page 164411]
A.2d 830 (1979) and Commonwealth v. Ruff, 266 Pa. Super. 497, 405 A.2d 929 (1979). It is to be noted that, although appellant testified that he had been drinking on the morning prior to his arrest, he denied he was intoxicated.
Appellant's second requested instruction, concerning motive, was also correctly refused. While sometimes relevant factually, motive is not an element of the crime of retail theft. See Commonwealth v. Holland, 480 Pa. 202, 389 A.2d 1026 (1978).
The lower court's refusal to give the number of witnesses and amount of evidence instruction was also correctly refused because these matters had previously been covered. Therefore, the appellant was not prejudiced by the court's refusal. Commonwealth v. Boone, 467 Pa. 168, 354 A.2d 898 (1976).
Appellant's final contention is that his sentence was manifestly excessive. This conviction was at least appellant's third conviction for retail theft.*fn1 The sentence imposed by the lower court, that appellant be imprisoned for one and one-half to five years, was within statutory limits. 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 3929(b); 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 1103. The sentencing record shows that the lower court complied with all sentencing requirements. Commonwealth v. Wareham, 259 Pa. Super. 527, 393 A.2d 951 (1978); Commonwealth v. Straw, 238 Pa. Super. 535, 361 A.2d 427 (1976) allocatur refused. The lower court, on the record, considered appellant's visual problems, his age, his family and employment situations, the seriousness of the offense, the pre-sentence report, appellant's numerous prior convictions for the same offense, and adequately stated its reasons for sentencing appellant.
Judgment of sentence affirmed.

BROOKLYN - A study conducted by professors at Hunter College found that 1,000 New Yorkers are hurt by people on their bicycles each year and that half of those injuries happen right in the city.
According to researchers, the new data does not include injuries sustained by the cyclist and is restricted only to pedestrians struck by bikes. They also only looked at people who were treated at hospitals and say the actual number of incidents could be even higher.
Many pedestrians and cyclists along Avenue U and Ocean Parkway say that given their own experiences, the numbers aren't surprising.
