Covenant Peace Blog of Donald C. Mann » Blog Archive » Marianne Williamson and A Course in Miracles Quote Unmasked and Redeemed
As we turn from Bible studies to discipleship, evangelism and revival, we will have to deal the myriad of popular misconceptions and deceptions that ensnare so many. People are not passive and waiting for us to show up. They are solving their problems in the best ways they know, usually discarding a powerless Christianity that emphasizes form and not results like Jesus commanded us to produce.

SCVNGRs Secret Game Mechanics Playdeck
Some companies keep a playbook of product tips, tricks and trade secrets. Zynga has an internal playbook, for instance, that is a collection of concepts, techniques, know-how and best practices for developing successful and distinctive social games. Zyngas playbook has entered the realm of legend and was even the subject of a lawsuit. SCVNGR, which makes a mobile game with real-world challenges, has a playdeck. It is a deck of cards listing nearly 50 different game mechanics that can be mixed and matched to create the foundation for different types of games. Ive republished the accompanying document below, which should be interesting to anybody trying to inject a gaming dimension into their products. Rght now, that should be a lot of people. Every six months or so, a set of features sweeps across the Web and every site and app feels the pressure to adopt it. Weve seen this with social, geo, and now game mechanics. Of course, all games on the Web have some sort of game mechanicsthose elements of game play which make them fun and addictive. But game mechanics are spreading to all kinds of apps, most famously Foursquare (which makes you check into places for badges and rewards). At our Social Currency CrunchUp in July, we had a panel which explored how game mechanics are invading everything. (One of the CEOs on the panel was SCVNGRs Seth Priebatsch). Every site from Mint to the Huffington Post now has some sort of game mechanics. SVNGRs playdeck tries to break down the game mechanics into their constituent parts. Some elements are as basic as achievements, status, and virtual items. But there are also more complex ones such as the appointment dynamic (a player must return at a specific time and perform an action to get a reward, like in Farmville), free lunch (a player gets something because of the efforts of other people,like in Groupon), fun once, fun always (a simple action that maintains a minimum level of enjoyment no matter how many times you do it, like Foursquares check-ins), and cascading information theory (give out information in the smallest dribblets possible to keep players guessing and moving forward). SCVNGR employees are instructed to memorize the flash cards. Now you can too. There will be a quiz. SCVNGR Game Dynamics Playdeck Guide To This Document: This list is a collection of game dynamics terms, game dynamics theories that are interesting, useful and potentially applicable to your work here at SCVNGR. Many of them have clear applications within the SCVNGR game layer (progression dynamic, actualization), many of them dont yet (status, virtual items). Many of them are just interesting for your general education on game dynamics theory (epic meaning, social fabric of games). Many of these game dynamics concepts are well known and are sourced from all over the internet and from researchers such as Jane McGonigal, Ian Bogost and Jess Schell and articles on gamasutra (which I highly recommend reading). Others are used exclusively internally here and wont make any sense outside of HQ. Along with a link to this document, you will have received these dynamics in a set of flash cards. Please memorize those. If youre on the engineering / game-design team you can access our internal game dynamics visualizer (with the most up to date dynamics) through your account. Download the SCVNGR app for iPhone& Android (if you havent already) and start playing. Find places where these game dynamics exist or places where you could implement them by building on the game layer using our tools, or others. 1. Achievement Definition: A virtual or physical representation of having accomplished something. These are often viewed as rewards in and of themselves. Example: a badge, a level, a reward, points, really anything defined as a reward can be a reward. 2. Appointment Dynamic Definition: A dynamic in which to succeed, one must return at a predefined time to take some action. Appointment dynamics are often deeply related to interval based reward schedules or avoidance dyanmics. Example: Cafe World and Farmville where if you return at a set time to do something you get something good, and if you dont something bad happens. 3. Avoidance Definition: The act of inducing player behavior not by giving a reward, but by not instituting a punishment. Produces consistent level of activity, timed around the schedule. Example: Press a lever every 30 seconds to not get shocked. 4. Behavioral Contrast Definition: The theory defining how behavior can shift greatly based on changed expectations. Example: A monkey presses a lever and is given lettuce. The monkey is happy and continues to press the lever. Then it gets a grape one time. The monkey is delighted. The next time it presses the lever it gets lettuce again. Rather than being happy, as it was before, it goes ballistic throwing the lettuce at the experimenter. (In some experiments, a second monkey is placed in the cage, but tied to a rope so it cant access the lettuce or lever. After the grape reward is removed, the first monkey beats up the second monkey even though it obviously had nothing to do with the removal. The anger is truly irrational.) 5. Behavioral Momentum Definition: The tendency of players to keep doing what they have been doing. Example: From Jesse Schells awesome Dice talk: I have spent ten hours playing Farmville. I am a smart person and wouldnt spend 10 hours on something unless it was useful. Therefore this must be useful, so I can keep doing it. 6. Blissful Productivity Definition: The idea that playing in a game makes you happier working hard, than you would be relaxing. Essentially, were optimized as human beings by working hard, and doing meaningful and rewarding work. Example: From Jane McGonicals Ted Talk wherein she discusses how World of Warcraft players play on average 22 hours / week (a part time job), often after a full days work. Theyre willing to work hard, perhaps harder than in real life, because of their blissful productivity in the game world. 7. Cascading Information Theory Definition: The theory that information should be released in the minimum possible snippets to gain the appropriate level of understanding at each point during a game narrative. Example: showing basic actions first, unlocking more as you progress through levels. Making building on SCVNGR a simple but staged process to avoid information overload. 8. Chain Schedules Definition: the practice of linking a reward to a series of contingencies. Players tend to treat these as simply the individual contingencies. Unlocking one step in the contingency is often viewed as an individual reward by the player. Example: Kill 10 orcs to get into the dragons cave, every 30 minutes the dragon appears. 9. Communal Discovery Definition: The game dynamic wherein an entire community is rallied to work together to solve a riddle, a problem or a challenge. Immensely viral and very fun. Example: DARPA balloon challenge, the cottage industries that appear around McDonalds monopoly to find Boardwalk 10. Companion Gaming Definition: Games that can be played across multiple platforms Example: Games that be played on iphone, facebook, xbox with completely seamless cross platform gameplay. 11. Contingency Definition: The problem that the player must overcome in the three part paradigm of reward schedules. Example: 10 orcs block your path 12. Countdown Definition: The dynamic in which players are only given a certain amount of time to do something. This will create an activity graph that causes increased initial activity increasing frenetically until time runs out, which is a forced extinction. Example: Bejeweled Blitz with 30 seconds to get as many points as you can. Bonus rounds. Timed levels 13. Cross Situational Leader-boards Definition: This occurs when one ranking mechanism is applied across multiple (unequal and isolated) gaming scenarios. Players often perceive that these ranking scenarios are unfair as not all players were presented with an equal opportunity to win. Example: Players are arbitrarily sent into one of three paths. The winner is determined by the top scorer overall (i.e. across the paths). Since the players can only do one path (and cant pick), they will perceive inequity in the game scenario and get upset. 14. Disincentives Definition: a game element that uses a penalty (or altered situation) to induce behavioral shift Example: losing health points, amazons checkout line removing all links to tunnel the buyer to purchase, speeding traps 15. Endless Games Definition: Games that do not have an explicit end. Most applicable to casual games that can refresh their content or games where a static (but positive) state is a reward of its own. Example: Farmville (static state is its own victory), SCVNGR (challenges constantly are being built by the community to refresh content) 16. Envy Definition: The desire to have what others have. In order for this to be effective seeing what other people have (voyeurism) must be employed. Example: my friend has this item and I want it! 17. Epic Meaning Definition: players will be highly motivated if they believe they are working to achieve something great, something awe-inspiring, something bigger than themselves. Example: From Jane McGonicals Ted Talk where she discusses Warcrafts ongoing story line and epic meaning that involves each individual has motivated players to participate outside the game and create the second largest wiki in the world to help them achieve their individual quests and collectively their epic meanings. 18. Extinction Definition: Extinction is the term used to refer to the action of stopping providing a reward. This tends to create anger in players as they feel betrayed by no longer receiving the reward they have come to expect. It generally induces negative behavioral momentum. Example: killing 10 orcs no longer gets you a level up 19. Fixed Interval Reward Schedules Definition: Fixed interval schedules provide a reward after a fixed amount of time, say 30 minutes. This tends to create a low engagement after a reward, and then gradually increasing activity until a reward is given, followed by another lull in engagement. Example: Farmville, wait 30 minutes, crops have appeared 20. Fixed Ratio Reward Schedule Definition: A fixed ratio schedule provides rewards after a fixed number of actions. This creates cyclical nadirs of engagement (because the first action will not create any reward so incentive is low) and then bursts of activity as the reward gets closer and closer. Example: kill 20 ships, get a level up, visit five locations, get a badge 21. Free Lunch Definition: A dynamic in which a player feels that they are getting something for free due to someone else having done work. Its critical that work is perceived to have been done (just not by the player in question) to avoid breaching trust in the scenario. The player must feel that theyve lucked into something. Example: Groupon. By virtue of 100 other people having bought the deal, you get it for cheap. There is no sketchiness b/c you recognize work has been done (100 people are spending money) but you yourself didnt have to do it. 22. Fun Once, Fun Always Definition: The concept that an action in enjoyable to repeat all the time. Generally this has to do with simple actions. There is often also a limitation to the total level of enjoyment of the action. Example: the theory behind the check-in everywhere and the check-in and the default challenges on SCVNGR. 23. Interval Reward Schedules Definition: Interval based reward schedules provide a reward after a certain amount of time. There are two flavors: variable and fixed. Example: wait N minutes, collect rent 24. Lottery Definition: A game dynamic in which the winner is determined solely by chance. This creates a high level of anticipation. The fairness is often suspect, however winners will generally continue to play indefinitely while losers will quickly abandon the game, despite the random nature of the distinction between the two. Example: many forms of gambling, scratch tickets. 25. Loyalty Definition: The concept of feeling a positive sustained connection to an entity leading to a feeling of partial ownership. Often reinforced with a visual representation. Example: fealty in WOW, achieving status at physical places (mayorship, being on the wall of favorite customers) 26. Meta Game Definition: a game which exists layered within another game. These generally are discovered rather than explained (lest they cause confusion) and tend to appeal to ~2% of the total gameplaying audience. They are dangerous as they can induce confusion (if made too overt) but are powerful as theyre greatly satisfying to those who find them. Example: hidden questions / achievements within world of warcraft that require you to do special (and hard to discover) activities as you go through other quests 27. Micro Leader-boards Definition: The rankings of all individuals in a micro-set. Often great for distributed game dynamics where you want many micro-competitions or desire to induce loyalty. Example: Be the top scorers at Joes bar this week and get a free appetizer 28. Modifiers Definition: An item that when used affects other actions. Generally modifiers are earned after having completed a series of challenges or core functions. Example: A X2 modifier that doubles the points on the next action you take. 29. Moral Hazard of Game Play Definition: The risk that by rewarding people manipulatively in a game you remove the actual moral value of the action and replace it with an ersatz game-based reward. The risk that by providing too many incentives to take an action, the incentive of actually enjoying the action taken is lost. The corollary to this is that if the points or rewards are taken away, then the person loses all motivation to take the (initially fun on its own) action. Example: Paraphrased from Jesse Schell If I give you points every time you brush your teeth, youll stop brushing your teeth b/c its good for you and then only do it for the points. If the points stop flowing, your teeth will decay. 30. Ownership Definition: The act of controlling something, having it be *your* property. Example: Ownership is interesting on a number of levels, from taking over places, to controlling a slot, to simply owning popularity by having a digital representation of many friends. 31. Pride Definition: the feeling of ownership and joy at an accomplishment Example: I have ten badges. I own them. They are mine. There are many like them, but these are mine. Hooray. 32. Privacy Definition: The concept that certain information is private, not for public distribution. This can be a demotivator (I wont take an action because I dont want to share this) or a motivator (by sharing this I reinforce my own actions). Example: Scales the publish your daily weight onto Twitter (these are real and are proven positive motivator for staying on your diet). Or having your location publicly broadcast anytime you do anything (which is invasive and can should be avoided). 33. Progression Dynamic Definition: a dynamic in which success is granularly displayed and measured through the process of completing itemized tasks. Example: a progress bar, leveling up from paladin level 1 to paladin level 60 34. Ratio Reward Schedules Definition: Ratio schedules provide a reward after a number of actions. There are two flavors: variable and fixed. Example: kill 10 orcs, get a power up. 35. Real-time v. Delayed Mechanics Definition: Realtime information flow is uninhibited by delay. Delayed information is only released after a certain interval. Example: Realtime scores cause instant reaction (gratification or demotivation). Delayed causes ambiguity which can incent more action due to the lack of certainty of ranking. 36. Reinforcer Definition: The reward given if the expected action is carried out in the three part paradigm of reward schedules. Example: receiving a level up after killing 10 orcs. 37. Response Definition: The expected action from the player in the three part paradigm of reward schedules. Example: the player takes the action to kill 10 orcs 38. Reward Schedules Definition: the timeframe and delivery mechanisms through which rewards (points, prizes, level ups) are delivered. Three main parts exist in a reward schedule; contingency, response and reinforcer. Example: getting a level up for killing 10 orcs, clearing a row in Tetris, getting fresh crops in Farmville 39. Rolling Physical Goods Definition: A physical good (one with real value) that can be won by anyone on an ongoing basis as long as they meet some characteristic. However, that characteristic rolls from player to player. Example: top scorer deals, mayor deals 40. Shell Game Definition: a game in which the player is presented with the illusion of choice but is actually in a situation that guides them to the desired outcome of the operator. Example: 3 Card Monty, lotteries, gambling 41. Social Fabric of Games Definition: the idea that people like one another better after theyve played games with them, have a higher level of trust and a great willingness to work together. Example: From Jane McGonicgals TED talk where she suggests that it takes a lot of trust to play a game with someone because you need them to spend their time with you, play by the same rules, shoot for the same goals. 42. Status Definition: The rank or level of a player. Players are often motivated by trying to reach a higher level or status. Example: white paladin level 20 in WOW. 43. Urgent Optimism Definition: Extreme self motivation. The desire to act immediately to tackle an obstacle combined with the belief that we have a reasonable hope of success. Example: From Jane McGonicals TED talk. The idea that in proper games an epic win or just win is possible and therefore always worth acting for. 44. Variable Interval Reward Schedules Definition: Variable interval reward schedules provide a reward after a roughly consistent amount of time. This tends to create a reasonably high level of activity over time, as the player could receive a reward at any time but never the burst as created under a fixed schedule. This system is also more immune to the nadir right after the receiving of a reward, but also lacks the zenith of activity before a reward in unlocked due to high levels of ambiguity. Example: Wait roughly 30 minutes, a new weapon appears. Check back as often as you want but that wont speed it up. Generally players are bad at realizing that. 45. Variable Ratio Reward Schedule Definition: A variable ratio reward schedule provides rewards after a roughly consistent but unknown amount of actions. This creates a relatively high consistent rate of activity (as there could always be a reward after the next action) with a slight increase as the expected reward threshold is reached, but never the huge burst of a fixed ratio schedule. Its also more immune to nadirs in engagement after a reward is acheived. Example: kill something like 20 ships, get a level up. Visit a couple locations (roughly five) get a badge 46. Viral Game Mechanics Definition: A game element that requires multiple people to play (or that can be played better with multiple people) Example: Farmville making you more successful in the game if you invite your friends, the social check-in 47. Virtual Items Definition: Digital prizes, rewards, objects found or taken within the course of a game. Often these can be traded or given away. Example: Gowallas items, Facebook gifts, badges [crunchbase url="http://www.crunchbase.com/company/scvngr" name="SCVNGR"]
Covenant Peace Blog of Donald C. Mann » Blog Archive » Weight Loss, Nervousness, Overeating, Biting Nails and Affirmations
I read the affirmations in OK, God, Now What?, including those regarding weight loss. What I am finding is that since I am on the go most of the time, I find that my mouth has to be kept busy – eating, chewing gum, biting my nails, or something. I need to find a way to slow down. What can you recommend? Like I said, I read how I should be, but perhaps my metabolism is on the go, which is driving me to eat more, not less.
NORTON SCIENTIFIC-ZIMBIO-Norton: Donald Roberts, "Scientific Fraud", and DDT
http://oneclick.indiatimes.com/article/05ZvgVk22C0Pb?q=Guatemala In http://www.aei.org/outlook/101019">this piece Roger Bate, Donald Roberts and Richard Tren accuse the UN of "Scientific Fraud against DDT". Their Accusation is based on an Opinion paper byhttp://www.dovepress.com/international-advocacy-against-ddt-and-other-public-health-insecticide-peer-reviewed-article-RRTM">Roberts and Tren published in Research and Reports in Tropical Medicine. So let's look at their paper and see where the "Scientific Fraud" is. Roberts and Tren's key argument is that reductions in malaria in the Americas were not the result of http://www.thegef.org/gef/">Global Environmental Facility interventions but were caused by increased use of antimalarial drugs. In their own words: "However, their successes were not a result of the interventions we describe as components of the GEF project. Their successes were mostly a result of wide distributions of antimalarial drugs to suppress malaria (see Table 1). Data in the Table reveal trends of increased numbers of antimalarial pills distributed per diagnosed case and decreased numbers of cases. Equally obvious is the decreased numbers of pills distributed per diagnosed case, and increased numbers of cases in two countries (Costa Rica and Panama)."

Are you Highly Sensitive(HSP)? You may be an Intuitive Empath!
Help for empaths! Learn to be a healthy empath. Empaths have highly sensitive nervous systems, and they avoid intense stimulation such as glaring lights, loud music, strong odors, and crowded situations. An empath is a person who can psychically tune in to the emotional experience of a person, place or animal. Highly developed empathy is a psychic ability to sense the emotions of others and often highly aware of the health and state of mind of their loved ones, no matter how physically near or far away the individuals may be.
The task is to learn to understand this gift; to understand how to discern between your own feelings and pain, and that of another. In this way you will have the ability to feel compassion for others from a self contained point of view instead of merging with them and taking on their pain in order to heal them.
It can be challenging for empaths to function healthily in society if they are unaware that they have this sensitivity and often opt to be alone. Learn to manage and adapt to your empathic nature. Learn techniques and exercises to assist empaths.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Bill, sponsored by Congressman Joe Garcia, D-South Florida, that calls for greater transparency of companies that partner with the military on housing projects.
"My amendment will focus...on the issue of private housing companies that are not paying their local taxes," Garcia said Friday.
He was referring to a local lawsuit in which the Monroe County Property Appraiser's Office sued Balfour Beatty, a corporate partner of Naval Air Station Key West, for $11.3 million in back taxes and penalties that the appraiser's office claims are due to the county for property Balfour Beatty acquired from the Navy.
Zecca trial set for Dec. 2
A judge set a Key West trial date of Dec. 2 in the murder-for-hire trial against a retired Coast Guard Station Islamorada commander.
Retired Chief Warrant Officer Dennis Zecca will stand trial on charges that he attempted to have Marathon real estate businessman Bruce Schmitt killed last year.
U.S. District Judge Jose E. Martinez ordered a pre-trial conference with attorneys for Nov. 27 in Miami, according to federal court records.
Zecca is being held at Federal Detention Center in Miami.
Coast Guard returns 56 Cubans
The Coast Guard returned 38 Cubans on Wednesday, and 18 on Monday, to their island nation at Bahia de Cabañas.
They were stopped in three separate incidents. On June 7, a rustic boat with 20 Cubans aboard was reportedly seen south of Marathon; the 87-foot patrol boat Sawfish picked them up. Later that day, a Customs and Border Protection plane spotted another such vessel southwest of Key West; the cutter Ocracoke took 18 Cubans on board.
On June 5, a good Samaritan reported a makeshift boat south of Cudjoe Key. The cutter Valiant arrived and took on 18 Cubans. Once aboard a Coast Guard Cutter, all migrants receive food, water, shelter and basic medical attention.

The Adventures of Peter Pan HTML version
Chapter 9. The Never Bird
The last sound Peter heard before he was quite alone were the mermaids retiring one by
one to their bedchambers under the sea. He was too far away to hear their doors shut; but
every door in the coral caves where they live rings a tiny bell when it opens or closes (as
in all the nicest houses on the mainland), and he heard the bells.
Steadily the waters rose till they were nibbling at his feet; and to pass the time until they
made their final gulp, he watched the only thing on the lagoon. He thought it was a piece
of floating paper, perhaps part of the kite, and wondered idly how long it would take to
drift ashore.
Presently he noticed as an odd thing that it was undoubtedly out upon the lagoon with
some definite purpose, for it was fighting the tide, and sometimes winning; and when it
won, Peter, always sympathetic to the weaker side, could not help clapping; it was such a
gallant piece of paper.
It was not really a piece of paper; it was the Never bird, making desperate efforts to
reach Peter on the nest. By working her wings, in a way she had learned since the nest
fell into the water, she was able to some extent to guide her strange craft, but by the time
Peter recognised her she was very exhausted. She had come to save him, to give him her
nest, though there were eggs in it. I rather wonder at the bird, for though he had been nice
to her, he had also sometimes tormented her. I can suppose only that, like Mrs. Darling
and the rest of them, she was melted because he had all his first teeth.
She called out to him what she had come for, and he called out to her what she was
doing there; but of course neither of them understood the other's language. In fanciful
stories people can talk to the birds freely, and I wish for the moment I could pretend that
this were such a story, and say that Peter replied intelligently to the Never bird; but truth
is best, and I want to tell you only what really happened. Well, not only could they not
understand each other, but they forgot their manners.
"I -- want -- you -- to -- get -- into -- the -- nest," the bird called, speaking as slowly and
distinctly as possible, "and -- then -- you -- can -- drift -- ashore, but -- I -- am -- too - -
tired -- to -- bring -- it -- any -- nearer -- so -- you -- must -- try -- to -- swim -- to -- it."
"What are you quacking about?" Peter answered. "Why don't you let the nest drift as
"I -- want -- you -- " the bird said, and repeated it all over.
Then Peter tried slow and distinct.
"What -- are -- you -- quacking -- about?" and so on.

Australia's $5 billion cosmetics industry will be pushing on Thursday for long-overdue changes to the regulation of chemical products that business owners such as Gillian Franklin say holds back innovation and keeps new products out of the country.
"Cosmetics in Australia go through the same test as hazardous chemicals," says Franklin, chief executive of The Heat Group, distributor of products such as Max Factor and Covergirl. "That's the start of this ludicrousness. Australian consumers have no idea how disadvantaged they are."
Franklin is hoping that the Business Advisory Forum meeting with government leaders before Friday's Council of Australian Governments meeting will inject life into a long-running review process to reform the National Industrial Chemicals Notification and Assessment Scheme (Nicnas).
A discussion paper on the regulator's role released by the government in May was the latest step in a review process that dates back to John Howard's government in 2004 and included a Productivity Commission report in 2008, which made a number of recommendations including that Nicnas accelerate some of its processes.
The regulator's insistence on testing new chemical formulations from scratch - even if they have been approved in countries like New Zealand, the US and UK - puts off some companies from selling certain products in Australia, Franklin says. She describes what would happen if Procter & Gamble wanted an Australian launch of a Covergirl product that contains a chemical formulation already approved in the US, but new to this country.
"We have to apply and have testing down here," she says. "We have to prove that it's safe here. They will not accept international papers."
A further complaint is costs. Industry body Accord Australasia says the regulator is out of touch with the industries it controls, especially over the fees it charges. Nicnas proposed a 24 per cent increase in fees and charges this year, Accord says.
"Australia's policy of fully cost-recovered agencies has not been followed by most other advanced nations," Accord executive director Bronwyn Capanna said in June. "Were these agencies tied to the government purse, as was the case in the 1980s, they would be foolhardy indeed to seek such increases in the current fiscal climate. Treasury would simply slap them down."
The broad sweep of regulation - lumping low-risk chemicals such as shampoos and moisturisers with industrial chemicals - and the lack of willingness by the regulator to accept science-based assessments of US and European Union regulators, in contrast with New Zealand, that accepts them, does not just affect cosmetics.
Greg Whiteley is the managing director of Whiteley Corporation, a family-owned company producing industrial cleaning materials in Tomago, NSW. He says current processes all but stop him from importing more efficient and greener chemicals produced elsewhere in the world to develop into products that he could then export.
"Nicnas has turned into a bureaucracy that effectively is blocking innovation and development in our sector for no objective benefit to the Australian community," Whiteley says. "The people making innovations upstream ... don't even consider Australia as a potential source of business. They're not willing to get involved in bureaucracy that seems to want to stop all innovation.
Another risk to the cosmetics industry is that if consumers are unable to buy locally made versions of new products, they will simply do so online, further weakening local industry, says Accord's policy and public affairs director Craig Brock.
"The industry is starting to reach a situation, looking at chemical manufacture in Australia, that if we can't get access to the latest technology, to the latest greener chemicals, we risk becoming a backwater," Brock says.
Nicnas referred queries to the health department, which oversees it. In a statement, the department said a review that it commissioned with the finance and deregulation department in September last year would report back to their respective ministers "in the first half of 2013".

Traffic Master Peel off Vinyl Tiles
I am installing the Traffic Master peel off vinyl tiles over a product called Subflor (http://www.subflor.com/ADVANCE/home.asp) in my basement.
Some of the tiles are sticking really well, others are peeling a bit and yet others make a sound when stepped on (probably a sign of the middle not sticking).
I called traffic master and they think it shouldn't be installed on top of Subflor, however, the guys at Home Depot say it is fine.
Conflicting views...very frustrating. Since I have the space half done already, I would like to know before wasting any more $$$.
Rule #1 of any DIY job: Don't believe everything you hear at HD or Lowes or Menards, or any other big box store. If the people there knew what they were talking about, they wouldn't be working there (most of them). Always believe the people that make the product over the people that sell it.
Been here before!!!
I have a simple solution for you. You can simply pick up some mastic and trowel it on. Let the glue set until it is tacky (Very Important if you intend to not have glue coming back through the cracks of the tile your installing} Don't be aftaid to let it set until it is almost dry before installing the tile. Or you could butter the back of each tile slightly keeping it from the edges so it won't seep through the cracks. Personally, I would glue it......let it dry a bit... then install the tile. I have done this many times before. Its fine!!!:thumbsup:
Read the instructions for Subflor on their website. It says "Installation of vinyl tile requires a 1/4" underlayment such as plywood to first be fastened to the Subflor panels."
Did you install an underlayment over the Subflor?:no:
Nobody at home depot is gonna warranty your install so dont waste your time asking them anything. They dont know the right answers anyway. Always contact the manufacturer if you are not sure.:yes:
Lot's of ideas here...thanks! I'm learning pretty quickly that HD is not the be all and end all of knowledge. Getting that info from the manufacturer was annoying since I already layed 40+ tile and bought 100. But better know now than later.

More hazard warnings are needed around Adamasta Rock in the middle of a busy shipping channel in Hong Kong waters to alert passing vessels, an expert says.
The appeal comes as an 87-metre mainland river-trading vessel that ran aground on Adamasta Rock on May 8 is still stranded in the Adamasta Channel. The Marine Department says the ship's owner is organising the salvage plan.
Adamasta Rock, which sits in the middle of the channel between Lantau and Cheung Chau islands and is under water at high tide, has a beacon. There is a red buoy on its right side and a green one on the left.
This is the reverse of the usual setting, in which red buoys are on the port (left) side of a seaway and green buoys on the starboard (right) side. But local sailors and marine professionals are familiar with the quirk.
Ken Wiltshire, vice-commodore of the Discovery Bay Yacht Club, said the buoys could be confusing, especially for first-time visitors.
'The situation could be improved by placing cardinal marks around the obstacle, which would clarify the situation definitively,' he said.
Terry Fung Wah-fuk, a chief instructor at Club Cyclone Runner which provides sailing courses, said he did not see any problem in the design of the red and green buoys.
'The rock, red and green buoys and the direction of buoyage are clearly marked on the nautical chart. It is impossible for mariners to miss the rock, and get confused, if they check the chart.'
But Fung agrees there is a room for improvement. 'I think placing cardinal buoys could help,' he said.
Cardinal buoys are placed to the north, south, east and west of a point of interest, like a wreck.
Lee Chi-wai, chairman of Hong Kong Seamen's Union, said he did not think the red and green buoys at the rock and in the channel caused confusion, and the union had not received any complaints.
Apart from the buoys, the light beacon has a flashing white light that can be seen for 11 nautical miles.
'Investigations into the rare occasions of marine incidents in the Adamasta Channel have not indicated that the marking of the rock played a role, nor is there evidence to date that this is the case in the present grounding,' a department spokesman said.
On May 8, the Zhong Fu Fa Zhan was carrying soil and sand towards Taishan in Guangdong when it ran aground on the rock. None of the seven crew members were injured.
The hull was damaged and water spilled into the cargo hold but there was no danger of sinking.
The Marine Department is still investigating. As the vessel is still stranded there, the department has been broadcasting messages to ships in Hong Kong alerting them about the incident. The Adamasta Channel is mainly used by high-speed passenger ferries and river-trade vessels.

Do Air Bags give you body lean?
I am considering installing an Air Ride air bag system on the front end of my 40 ford. I have a mustang II front end with Heidts A arms and lowered spindles. I have new Bilstein shocks in the front and rear, but the 2 inch drop spindles did not give me the lowered stance that I am looking for in my rod. I was told to go to an Air Ride system that will allow me to lower the car while at shows. My question is by going this route should I expect more body lean while driving the car? Is this something that you sacrifice by installing air bags? Is there another way to lower the front end without going to air bags?
I have a limited experience with bags, but in order to limit body lean you must have an isolated 4 bag system. Each bag must be check valved separately.
If not, the body roll will squeeze the air out of the outside bag and transfer it to the inside bag, increasing the body roll even more. (remember old air shocks hooked with a T ?)
Lowering can be also be accomplished with adjustable coil overs, adjustable spring pockets, shorter custom lowering springs (coils or leaves), leaf spring lowering blocks, or cutting the coils off your existing springs. It depends what system you have already, front and rear.
Make sure you have a "4 way system" or 2 valves per wheel.
I have bags on my '32 pickup (you can see the install by looking at the first couple pages of my journal) with just two control valves, one for the front end and one for the rear. I don't notice any particular problem with roll but then I'm not doing any drifting either - just normal highway driving.
One final Note, just because Air Ride is one of the industy leaders does not mean there are not other comperable companies out there that are just as good (if not better) and cost much less, In my search for a complete system I found that for what I wanted from air ride would have run me $2800 without shipping (complete bag system, tanks, compressors, fittings, line, electrical, driers and rear triangulated 4 link and all brackets) I found Fender Bender international (fbimini.com) and got everything listed for $1800 shipped with billet slam air specialties bags (as opposed to the firestones) and a bigger compressor than air ride had to offer. With air ride your paying for a name, I dont give a squat about a name I want good equipment for less money. (No I dont get paid to say that, just a happy customer)
Good post Kallie49. I work with most companies on a daily basis. AirRide tech is more money. But there service is very good. and there products are engineered so a person with very little knowledge (of pneumatics) can put it all together. Sure if you have more experience you can mix and match various components with great success and save money. But you do have to know what your buying. The almightly dollar is not the only consideration that should be made. There is a lot of "cheap" products out there that you could not pay me to put on my vehicle.

"In this remarkably well-researched work of historical detection, Luciano Garibaldi provides a description of the more noteworthy theories surrounding Mussolini's death. He centers on some very elusive material, focusing on the forensic aspects that contradict the time and place of death in the official version. No serious investigation by the Italian government or Italian justice was ever undertaken into the details of Mussolini's execution. Allied Military Government, the organization in charge of administering occupied Italy in 1945-1946, relied mostly on reports from the Italian Resistance. Apart from eyewitness accounts of the bodies hanging by the feet at the Piazzale Loreto by British and American officers, Allied forces in Italy initiated no official inquiry at the time."--Jacket.

Learn More about the Symptoms, Effects and Treatments by Substance
The Treatment Process
Those who need substance abuse treatment the most are often the last ones to recognize it. Drug abuse interventions gather family and friends to impress upon the user the need for rehabilitation.
Detox Services
Before recovery can start, the system must be washed free of the abused substance. This is detoxification. Alcohol and many drugs will leave the addicted person with unpleasant side effects or withdrawal symptoms once the body has become accustomed to having the substance. Professionally administered detoxification can lessen the discomfort for anyone seeking to get sober.
Residential Rehabilitation Centers
An inpatient drug abuse rehab center provides safe, effective treatment in a soothing environment. When addicted people opt for in-home, outpatient treatment, it's often because they think it will be easier, allowing them to get well without upsetting their routine. Part of what makes The Woodlands residential rehabs so appealing, though, is the opportunity it presents to make a clean break from location that contributed to the addiction.
Addiction Therapy after Inpatient Substance Abuse Rehab
When inpatient treatment for drug abuse ends, you may not be quite ready to be on your own. It's critical to have a solid support group if you are to be successful. A continuing course of addiction therapy allows you to go at your own pace. You'll get the benefits of group meetings and counseling for as long as you want them.
