If there's one thing you can count on your dog for, it's that you can always count on your dog. Everyone knows that dogs are among the most loyal creatures on the planet. Loyalty also comes from wolves. Despite the common term "alpha male" implying that a male wolf rules over his pack, the fact is that wolves oftentimes mate for life, and mating pairs share responsibility in running their packs of offspring. Living as part of a nuclear family unit is built into your dog's instincts, which is what makes them so loyal and such terrific family pets.


text: Hi there, i currently own a 316i coupe e36 and am thinking about purchasing a 318i e46 saloon and was wondering whether or not my e36 sports exhaust (cat back) would fit on the e46. When i purchased the exhaust it was specific to the car ie. e36 coupe 316 not some universal one. Any advice would be great.

The plan is simple, and not; to use my 'chase van' as a darkroom during my Cannonball ride across the USA this September (6-23, NY to SF), and shoot portraits of riders and their machines as we cross the country, using terribly obsolescent 1850s technology, 'wet plate' collodion on tin and/or glass. I've just started experimenting with the medium this week, and here are a few of the results.
As the summer progresses, I'll post more photos taken using the medium, which isn't spontaneous in the least! All must be planned ahead, the light measured, the glass plate cleaned and coated with liquid collodion, then charged with silver nitrate, and exposed for a few seconds (depending on the light, could be as little as 2 seconds, as much as a few minutes, but portraits need to be under a minute, or the subject is blurry).
Collodion is a fussy medium, and is sensitive to an invisible, ultraviolet end of the light spectrum, so gives unexpected results on skin tones, plants, etc. It erases tattoos, but darkens melanin in skin, and lightens blue eyes to white, so is basically irreproducible in an iphone 'app'...part of the reason I like the process, and the unique images produced.

What a great idea Paul! :)
Re-live the past all the way. When people pose for you in period attire, you can make almost authentic photographs in 2012. My friend Janet and I are collecting old photos, a 'tintype' of an old machine with its rider woull be great :) Keep up the good work and the spirit of years gone by! Thanks

this is a really great thing to try. I wish you all appropriate luck.
I made a reproduction glass plate related to the 1874 expedition to photgraph the passage of Venus, that story too is facinating!
I love your Blog.

Hats off to you good sir . Thats one ___ of an endeavor you're undertaking , but well worth the effort once you've gotten a handle on it .
Call me a luddite .... Call me old fashioned ... heck just call me old if you must but those Zeros & Ones of the digital domain don't hold a candle to good ole , well crafted Analogue ... be it film , silver plate , wet plate , whatever .
Can't wait to see the results once you've conquered the medium . They will be fantastic .

Absolutely brilliant images.

As a keen photographer and motorcyclist, and a lover of vintage forms of both, I am full of envy for your project. Your images are beautiful and timeless. Truely avant garde. Forward to the past.

Super cool Paul! I can hardly wait to see more images. But of course, we'll eventually need to make photos of Victorian and Edwardian motorbicycles with your setup.
see you soon.

Well, I do have a 1902 Clément in my living room, patiently waiting to be photographed... the whole chemical setup needs to move to NYC, along with a large-format camera, which will happen eventually. When you mention 'wet plate', its amazing how many people have tried the technique at one point in their photo careers.
On a side note, I may just practice on the Velocette Rally in Arizona in July...although hot weather makes keeping the plate 'wet' tricky.
- May 11, 2012
Paul, Will you let us know your schedule and route so some might see you along the way?
- May 11, 2012
- The Vintagent said...
The schedule is up on the motorcycle cannonball website, I think, but I'll post a map and dates before we start. I'll have my 50th BD at the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, Iowa, Sept. 11th.

Great idea!
For training purposes you could rig an ordinary camera on top of the large-format camera that records the subject and all the neccesary data for the pic you are taking.

Why not shoot the current day with the current day's technology. Would seem much more genuine.
- May 11, 2012

@ Anonymous; a reasonable question...but then again, why ride old motorcycles, when new ones are available?
I don't believe in 'obsolescence'; any technology which is available today is 'today's technology'. The spectrum of photographic techniques available right now range from Daguerreotypes to 'variable focus field' cameras, which is the current cutting edge. Each of these techniques produces images - so is one more 'current' than another? Newer technologies are easier, its true, but sometimes analog techniques have qualities which digital cannot match - the element of chance, of mystery, and some might say, magic. We cannot see the ultraviolet end of the color spectrum to which 'wet plate' collodion photos are sensitive; therefore, we cannot exactly predict how the photo will look. A digital camera with large screen will tell you accurately what it captures, but to think this is 'better' somehow, or more 'current', is a fallacy. It serves the photographic industry's need to sell you new equipment, when in truth, you can make exceptional images using a box with a hole at one end, and some film. That takes imagination, which nobody can sell you, and is therefore un-valued by capitalist enterprise.
It is the same with old motorcycles; they are still motorcycles, and still move you from place to place. They serve a different function today than they did when new, and somehow, in their supposed obsolescence and detachment from 'the industry', old bikes gain something which has been lost in the lust for the New. What is revealed is a different experience, which -hopefully- affirms not the joy of Buying, but the joy of Living.
- May 12, 2012
Vintagent, Beautifully stated. Old cars do it for me also. I just finished up a week long tour in a '30's era car. It was wonderful.I will try to meet up with you in Sept.
- May 12, 2012
"What is revealed is a different experience, which -hopefully- affirms not the joy of Buying, but the joy of Living."
nothing to add, simply great!
Great project indeed!

Gumberg, a native of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., played his first collegiate year at the University of Tennessee but transferred to Arizona and will play for the Wildcats this fall.
Gumberg birdied five of his last six holes on the back nine to post 30 and grab the first round lead, while Armstrong, a freshman at Lipscomb University, carded a 65 at the longer Geronimo Course.
The field of 156 high-caliber amateurs of this 72-hole stroke play event will be cut down to the top-60 players after 36 holes, and the remainder of the field will play the final two rounds on the Geronimo Course. Both tracks are Jack Nicklaus Signature courses, with the Cochise once playing host to the Traditions Championship and is the current site of the Charles Schwab Cup, the season-ending event on the Champions Tour.
Geronimo was the tougher task on day one as shown by a stroke average of 74.88 compared to 73.04 on Cochise.
Twenty-four players are under par after the first round, with both courses playing to a par-70. The Geronimo Course is tipped out at 7,219 yards while the Cochise course sits just under 7,000 at 6,889.
Three players are tied for sixth place at 66, including future Stanford golfer Brandon Wu, soon-to-be Colorado State freshman Jake Staiano, and recent Cal State-San Marcos transfer Dylan Healey.
Scratch players eligible to enter the
Championship must have a USGA Handicap
Index of 1.4 or less.
The SWGA reserves the right to invite
amateurs of national and international
reputation, as well as other amateurs "of
note", to enter into the tournament.
Applicants are urged to submit their entries
with golf resumes of accomplishment in
tournaments and other competitive track
record information.

The TV builder was apprehended as he attempted to have his photo taken on the partly-built Athens site.
However, Walsh was merely researching an article about how the controversial construction was progressing.
He and a writer and photographer from Zoo magazine were detained a day after The Times revealed that a reporter spent two-and-a half hours walking around the site unchallenged. Walsh said he believed his group was detained so police could make an example of them and show security was tight.
The 47-year-old added: 'At first I thought it funny but they kept us there and I got a bit of a strop on. I asked if they wanted me to ring Tony Blair because he'd know who I was. In the end I laughed it off.'
As for the stadium, Walsh said he was optimistic it would be built on time.
He added: 'It's a bit like Ground Force when there's only a couple of hours left and it looks like chaos but we get there.'

EUR/JPY: buy targets – 136.00 and 138.00
By: Dima Chernovolov
- EUR/JPY reversed from support level 133.50
- Next buy targets– 136.00 and 138.00
EUR/JPY has been rising sharply in the last few weeks – inside the intermediate ABC correction (2), which started in the middle of April, when the pair failed to break through the strong support level 126.90 (as you can see below). The price earlier reversed down from the resistance level 136.00. The downward correction from 136.00 stopped at the support level 133.50 (which also recently stopped the previous B-wave) standing close to 50% Fibonacci Correction of the previous impulse wave from April.
EUR/JPY is likely to rise further toward the next buy targets 136.00 and 138.00. Buy stop-loss can be placed below the support level 133.50.

Skip to comments.America's Underwater: Debt Equals 103 Percent of GDP
Posted on 09/11/2012 5:04:45 PM PDT by Sub-Driver
America's Underwater: Debt Equals 103 Percent of GDP By Terence P. Jeffrey September 11, 2012
(CNSNews.com) - According to the most recent official estimate by the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Gross Domestic Product for 2012 will be $15.6061 trillion--or about $440.5 billion less than the $16.0466 in debt that the federal government had accumulated as of the close of business on Monday.
In other words, the debt is now approximately 103 percent of GDP.
The BEA, which is part of the Department of Commerce and which officially calculates GDP, based its current estimate of this year's GDP, published on Aug. 29, on economic data available through the end of the second quarter of this calender year.
If that current estimate is correct, the debt of the United States government eclipsed the value of the Gross Domestic Product of the United States on April 2 of this year.
On Friday, March 30, according to the Bureau of the Public Debt, the federal debt was $15,582,078,681,188.69. By the close of business on Monday, April 2, it was $15,620,325,998,403.96.

Chalk that up to the other FAILS.
That is worse than Greece. Anyone who thinks this will turn out well is nuts.
Worse than that. There is almost an equal amount of off balance sheet of agency and Fannie/Freddie debt.
Sell off a bunch of public lands into hands of US Citizens only. Increase tax revenue and wipe out the national debt.
DownSize DC & evict the bureaucrats who do nothing but make life difficult for business and individuals. Let them look for jobs. Close entire Rogue Departments.
That would be a good start.
Another accomplishment Barry.
don't forget Boehner,
and the GOP elite.
...we had Obama over the barrel last year,
in the debt ceilling deadline.
even Mr Robinson here was saying "hold the line".
and the Republicans CAVED.
and now, Boehner is concerned about the "fiscal cliff",
that he CAUSED, by not doing what was right, last year.
Boehner: Not confident at all that we can strike a deal before the fiscal cliff
Harding went from 11% unemployment in his recession,
to 3%, in 2 years!!!
because he cut the Federal budget in HALF,
and cut taxes.
...the spending MUST STOP.
borrowing money from our children, MUST STOP.
And only those who have absolutely no moneys saved or invested outside of the US, and have made absolutely none of their money as officers of financial institutions.
Our real debt in incomprehensible.
SHTF/WROL will be the inevitable result of this. L&L!
Wait till you see what he does from mid Nov. thru Jan 19. SPEND, PUMP TO FRIENDS
There are a lot more libs on FR then what we had in the good old days.
Yes, it would be a good start. In about 8 years the debt could be gone...but so would most of government and unaccountable bureaucrats (more socialists).

Socialism Is Legal Plunder - The Law - Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850

Published after Bastiat's death this is clearly one of his best works. Not the size of "The Law" but it deals directly with the fallacies of Socialism.
It also has an excellent discussion of the concept of:
"That Which Is Seen, and That Which Is Not Seen." (And that which should have been foreseen)

Biology – the study of living organisms provides ample opportunity for students to discover more about themselves and their surrounding environment.
We are a well-resourced department with highly trained staff and well equipped laboratories. We aim to include practical work throughout our teaching so that students develop competent practical skills at an early stage.
We are fortunate to have a team of dedicated and well-experienced teachers in the department, who encourage students to fulfil their potential in this exciting and challenging subject.
Key Stage 3
At Key Stage 3 students are taught all three sciences by one teacher. Biology, Chemistry and Physics topics are taught in rotation and we assess for the end of Key Stage 3 levels at the end of Year 8. Students have 3 periods a week of science lessons.
Year 7 topics: Cells, Reproduction, Food and Digestion, Microbes and Disease, The Environment and Ecology.
Year 8 topics: Respiration, Photosynthesis, Variation and Inheritance, Fit and Healthy.
We usually take students to Brandon Marsh to spend a day carrying out sampling techniques and studying ecology during the summer term of Year 7.
Key Stage 4
Students begin studying for their GCSE in Biology in Year 9. All Year 9 and Year 10 students follow the Edexcel GCSE Biology specification 1BIO. Students have 2 periods a week of Biology and should spend a similar amount of time at home on homework and reviewing their class work and this should build up to approximately 3 hours of work a week in year 11.
Year 9 Topics: Key concepts in Biology, Cells and Control, Genetics
Year 10 Topics: Natural Selection and Genetic Modification, Health and Disease, Plant Structures and functions
Year 11 Topics: Animal Coordination, Exchange and Transport, Ecosystems
Students in Year 11 are following the Edexcel GCSE Biology specification 2BIO1.
Further details of both specifications can be found at www. Edexcel.org.uk
For current year 11 students
25% of the GCSE Biology marks come from controlled assessment which is completed during the summer term of Year 10 and the spring term of Year 11. Students will take three exams at the end of Year 11: B1, B2 and B3, each exam counts for 25% of their GCSE in Biology. Each exam is one hour long and consists of a mixture of multiple choice, short and long answer questions.
For Year 9 and Year 10 students
Students will take two exams at the end of Year 11. Each paper is 1 hour and 45 minutes long and worth 50% of their GCSE. Each exam consists of multiple choice, short answer, calculations and extended questions. Students are also required to complete 8 core practicals during the GCSE Biology course.
Biology Field Trip
Any further enquiries regarding the Biology Department should be directed to Dr Usha Dheer.

While it hasn't been a huge commercial success and its gameplay is far from revolutionary, the graphical fidelity of Crysis is still second to none and as such it's still the ultimate test for a graphics card. With masses of dynamic foliage, rolling mountain ranges, bright blue seas, and big explosions, this game has all the eye-candy you could wish for and then some.
We test using the 64-bit version of the game patched to version 1.1 and running in DirectX 10 mode. We use a custom timedemo that's taken from the first moments at the start of the game, wandering around the beach. Surprisingly, considering its claustrophobic setting and graphically rich environment, we find that any frame rate above 30fps is about sufficient to play this game. All in-game settings are set to high for our test runs and we test with both 0xAA and 4xAA.
Things are off to a good start here with the GTX 285 (and its overclocked Asus version) comfortably beating its predecessor and all other single-GPU cards. It's still a fair way off the pace of the dual-GPU cards but is impressive stuff nonetheless.

Thanks for the review. I'm thinking of changing my ancient old 7950GT. Do you have a baseline idle power consumption figure for your new system without the graphics card in it (ie using integrated graphics)? That would give us an idea how much power the card itself consumes on idle.
And for those of us that strive for a silent PC how quiet is quiet?
I'll happily pay more for something that doesn't guzzle power when I'm not playing a game and is very quiet (or preferably silent).
Can you tell me what psu is needed to use this gfx?
Well, you've got plenty of options. Anything rated at over about 500W should be fine. It'll need at least two six-pin PCI-Express connectors (most brands have them nowadays) but aside from that it just comes down to price and other features like modularity and flashing lights. OCZ, Enermax, FSP, Cooler Master, Thermaltake, Silver Power, Seasonic, etc. There's loads of good brands out there that will all do the business.
As it so happens, I'm doing a 500-700W power supply group test this week so keep an eye out for that in the next week or two if you want a definitive answer.
Unfortunately I don't have the card anymore so can't take it home and try it in a truly silent environment. It's certainly as quiet a fan cooler as I've heard when idling, though.
I'll pop a low power graphics card in our test bed later today and see what sort of figure I get. I'll then include that in future reviews.
The price shown here is a bit high, i found it on overclockers for 230 Pounds, sorry to bother, i do know that this review was written on 9th March, but as i was searching for reviews about this graphics card, i could not go by, and let other people see the prices here which might cause them not to buy this link without further searching.

Anti-Israel activists who have gathered this weekend at Harvard University's "One State Conference" were told yesterday that the Jewish people do not exist.
Prof. Susan M. Akram of Boston University's School of Law told the gathering that there is no legal basis for Jewish self-determination--at all:"Israel's claim of a state, on the basis of exclusive and discriminatory rights to Jews [sic], has never been juridically recognized. In other words, the concept of the Jewish people as a national entity with extraterritorial claims has never been recognized under international law."
But remember, it's just criticism of Israel's policies. Nothing anti-Semitic about trying to take away the rights of Jews.

Sheer force of numbers from those three areas -- Google Apps adoption, Chrome OS growth, and the spread of Android and Android-based devices -- tell me the year of the Linux desktop has finally arrived.
I'm sure there will be objections from people who want to define "the year of the Linux desktop" differently. There will be those fans of GNU/Linux distributions like Ubuntu who will object that the Linux Desktop has not arrived until we're all running KDE and Gnome. I fear those folks have a while to wait. Others will object because there are still so many copies of Windows and new PCs are still shipping with Windows. That's a fair point, but I believe even those users are actually Linux Desktop users. As I argued last year, Linux has already won on the Windows desktop.
Think about it: When did a new process or service you wanted to use last come as a Windows application download? When it did, what actually was that application? An increasing number of desktop applications are just containers for HTML5 Web apps. The real powerhouse behind those apps is usually Linux, accessed over the Internet, along with other elements of the modern LAMP stack. In a very real sense, the applications many use daily for email, documents, presentations, and more are Linux desktop applications. A fanatical obsession with replacing Windows made for interesting discussion, but while that debate was happening, all the work on the desktop moved inside the browser window.
The pushback argument for which I have sympathy is the argument about freedom. For many, the future of the desktop is less about the specific software and more about who has control. Whether you use Chrome OS, Android, MacOS, or Windows, more and more software is being mediated by app stores that frequently discriminate against open source. Functions are being delivered through JavaScript that has no license terms and thus can't be open source. Worst of all, surveillance is rife, and the Web-delivered nature of the new desktop makes it trivial to conduct blanket surveillance.
Even given these caveats, I personally am persuaded: 2014 is the year of the Linux desktop, at long last. Moving the center of computing to the cloud turned out to be an integral part of that. Now we need to work on reversing the tide of blanket surveillance.

Andrea from Great Thoughts is guest posting today about her online book club and she is inviting us to join in. I will definitely be jumping into discuss and I hope you will too!
With Thanksgiving and the December holidays approaching, I thought I'd announce our January book choice early so that you have plenty of time to read between tinsel, candles and cranberries. And our January book is….
Best Kept Secret by Amy Hatvany
This wonderful novel will be the #Gr8books book club pick for January.
The details:
Thursday, January 26th
Hashtag #Gr8books
Here is another copy of my review of Best Kept Secret. I can't wait for you all to read it!
Have you ever had one those "kid-intense" days that led you to a second glass of wine, maybe even a third? I know I have. But I never imagined the unintended consequences when such an occurrence becomes a practice. This is the premise of Amy Hatvany's thought-provoking novel,Best Kept Secret.
It is the story of Cadence Sutter – what a name – a writer for the Seattle Herald who, upon the birth of her first son, Charlie, quit the paper to become a full-time mom and a freelance jounalist. It was love at first sight with Charlie, and Cadence set out to be the perfect mom.
Along the way, Cadence's husband has an affair and she divorces him. Full-time motherhood takes over with no time or energy for writing and money running short. Two glasses of wine a night turns into two bottles a night and the downward spiral into alcoholism takes over. A two day binge leads Cadence to rehab, along with the loss of her child to CPS. To make matters more heartbreaking, Cadence's ex sues for custody of Charlie.
It is here that Cadence's journey to recovery – of her sobriety, her life and Charlie – begins. This is a fast, but painful and haunting, read. Amy Hatvany tell an all-to-true story of motherhood – the challenge to be the perfect mother, keep all the balls in the air, and make it look totally effortless.
This is a great book – definitely not a mindless summer read, no fluff here – but such a reality read! This is definitely one of the better books of 2011.
Visit Andrea's blog to enter to win a copy of the book!

You've probably played "Knock,
Knock" before, but just in
case you haven't, it's a game that goes like this:
"Knock, knock," you say to a friend.
"Who's there?" he replies.
"Gorilla who?"
"Gorilla my dreams, I love you."
Your friend will laugh (you hope), if he gets the pun.
And if he knows a good "knock-knock," he'll try it on you.
Before looking at the answers, see how many good "knock-knocks"
you can invent for these five boys' names:
1. Hiawatha 2. Sam 3. Noah 4. Tarzan 5. Chester
And these five girls' names:
1. Carmen 2. Sharon 3. Celia 4. Sarah 5. Minnie
The solution can be found at the source above.

Subj: The Meaning Of Service (S549c, S848)
From: gordonschuk on 7/21/2007
and From: tom on 4/8/2013
At one time in my life, I thought
I had a handle on the
meaning of the word "service." "It's the act of doing
things for other people." Then I heard these terms which
reference the word SERVICE:
Internal Revenue Service,
Postal Service,
Telephone Service,
Civil Service,
City ? County Public Service,
and Customer Service Stations
I became really confused about the word "service." This
isn't what I thought "service" meant.
Today, I overheard two farmers
talking, and one of them
said he had hired a bull to "service" a few of his cows.
BAM! It all came into perspective. Now I understand what
all those "service" agencies are doing to us. I hope you
are now also enlightened.
Subj: Seesaw Tongue Twister (S478c)
From: LABLaughsClean on 3/10/2006
Mr. See owned a saw.
And Mr. Soar owned a seesaw.
Now See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw
Before Soar saw See,
Which made Soar sore.
Had Soar seen See's saw
Before See sawed Soar's seesaw,
See's saw would not have sawed
Soar's seesaw.
So See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw.
But it was sad to see Soar so sore
Just because See's saw sawed
Soar's seesaw!

Subj: Gone For Cotton
From: Ossama's Laugh on 6/14/98
A bill collector knocked on the
door of a country debtor.
"Is Fred home?" he asked the woman who answered the door.
"Sorry," the woman replied. "Fred's gone for cotton."
The next day the collector tried
again. "Is Fred here
today?" "No, sir," she said, "I'm afraid Fred has gone
for cotton."
When he returned the third day
he humphed, "I suppose Fred
is gone for cotton again,?" "No," the woman answered
solemnly, "Fred died yesterday."
Suspicious that he was being
avoided, the collector
decided to wait a week and investigate the cemetery
himself. But sure enough, there was poor Fred's tombstone,
with this inscription: ... "Gone, But Not for Cotton."
Subj: Lone Ranger And Tonto In A Bar (S135)
From: Octagon999 on 98-04-28
and From: KMacinty on 8/27/99
The Lone Ranger and Tonto walked
into a bar and sat down to
drink a beer. After a few minutes, a big tall cowboy walked
in and said "Who owns the big white horse outside?" The Lone
Ranger stood up, hitched his gunbelt, and said, "I do... Why?"
The cowboy looked at the Lone
Ranger and said, "I just thought
you'd like to know that your horse is about dead outside!" The
Lone Ranger and Tonto rushed outside and sure enough Silver was
ready to die from heat exhaustion.
The Lone Ranger got the horse
water and soon Silver was starting
to feel a little better. The Lone Ranger turned to Tonto and
said, "Tonto, I want you to run around Silver and see if you can
create enough of a breeze to make him start to feel better."
Tonto said, "Sure, Kemosabe"
and took off running circles around
Silver. Not able to do anything else but wait, the Lone Ranger
returned to the bar to finish his drink.
A few minutes later, another
cowboy struts into the bar and asks,
"Who owns that big white horse outside?" The Lone Ranger stands
again, and claims, "I do, what's wrong with him this time?"
The cowboy looks him in the eye
and says, "Nothing, but you left
your Injun runnin'."
Subj: Ty Lies To Get Job
From: TNKRTEACH 97-04-13
A man named Ty Smith found himself
laid off from work one
day. After going several months without work, he finally
decided to lie about his work experience, and managed to
get a job as a cook at an old folks home. Unfortunately,
he was such a bad cook that he thought you had to flip a
pot of water over to get it to boil on both sides.
The first day on the job, the
manager told him to make
baked brie for lunch. Barely knowing what brie was, and
not knowing how to bake it, he took the wheel of brie
cheese, put it in the oven, turned it on high, and waited.
What came out of the over was a crispy brown lump of melted
and burned cheese.
When the manager saw this, he
said to Ty "I thought you
were a cook, what in blazes happened?". Ty, almost in
tears, confessed to being so scared of being out of work
that he lied to get the job.
The manager then replied "Ty
your yellow fibbin browned
the old folks brie".
Subj: The First Human Clone (S139)
From: Vegas Jokes Archive on 06/27/97
A scientist was successful in
cloning himself. He was asked
to speak at a national convention of cloning scientists. The
meeting room was located on the 45th floor of a New York
skyscraper. The scientist arrived with his clone and proceeded
to the podium. The clone sat at the end of the head table.
The scientist began the speech intending a tribute to the
advances in the field of modern biology. "My fellow scientists,"
he began.
Before he could utter another
word, the clone sprang to his feet
and shouted out, "he's an ASSHOLE!". The crowd began to murmur
as the scientist commanded the clone to "sit down and shut-up!".
Apologizing for the interruption, the scientist began again, "My
fellow scientists,". Again the clone sprang to his feet and
yelled, "this dumb ASS couldn't produce a copy on a Xerox. He's
a fraudulent SON-OF-A-BITCH!".
Incensed, the scientist rushed
to the clone, grabbed him, and
threw him out of the window. The crowd gasped and security
rushed into the room. A short while later New York's finest
arrived and were explained the events that had transpired.
The police chief said to the scientist, "We are going to have
to arrest you." The scientist replied, "For what? I have
committed no crime. What fell from the window was a clone,
not a person.".
The attending scientists nodded
in agreement. "Well," retorted
the police chief, "we can not let this heinous act go unchal-
lenged.". The police chief thought for a moment and ordered
the scientist held for "Making an obscene clone fall..."

Subj: Indian Gets Degree In Electrical Engineering
The chief of a poor American
Indian tribe .. no paved roads,
no electricity, no indoor plumbing .. scrimped and saved
and finally was able to send his eldest son to college. The
lad did well, working hard for four years and finally
graduating with a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering.
Arriving home after graduation,
the boy was treated to a
welcoming party, complete with plenty of refreshments.
Shortly after he retired to sleep, the son was awakened by a
call of nature. Exiting the hut, he proceeded down the road
to the outhouse, only to stumble and fall because of the lack
of lights.
The next day, the son decided
to put his education to work.
He sat down, did the calculations, and prepared construction
drawings for a lighting system for the outhouse, complete
with lights for the path leading thereto. It was constructed
and was an immediate success. This chief's son will go down
in history as the first indian to wire a head for a reservation.
Subj: Bookmaker Stays At An Inn
From: Bawdy.Net Collage #165
There is a story about a certain
bookmaker who was making a
long trip by car when towards nightfall he happened upon an
inn which had a most unusual name, The Even Steven. Since
it was located in the middle of a desolate stretch of
country, and he didn't know how much farther the next place
would be, he decided to stop there for the night, and
satisfy his curiosity about the name at the same time.
"It's very simple, really," the
proprietor explained. "You
see, my name is Steven Even. So I just decided to turn it
around and call this The Even Steven. I thought if might

and sometimes it does."
"That's a pretty smart way to
use the luck of a name," said
the bookie appreciatively. "I bet it brings you a lot of

luck," he said. "The folks
who stop here don't stay long. There's not much gaiety
around here, as you could see. In fact, there's not
another soul lives closer than thirty miles away, which-
ever way you go. Makes it pretty lonely for me, a widower.
And worse still for my daughters. Three of the loveliest
girls you ever set eyes on, should have their pick of boy
friends. But, they are getting so frustrated they're
about to do anything for a man."
The bookie made sympathetic noises,
and listened to more
in the same vein until hunger obliged him to change the
subject to that of food. An excellent home-cooked dinner
was served to him by a gorgeous blonde who introduced
herself as Blanche Even; and when he was surfeited she
still kept pressing him to ask for anything else he
Finally, she said, "Would you
like me to sit and talk to
you for a while?"
"Thank you," he said politely,
"but I've had a long day
and I feel like closing the book."
He went to his room and had just
started to undress when
there was a knock at the door and an absolutely breath-
taking brunette came in.
"I'm Carmen Even," she said.
"I just wanted to see if
you'd got everything you want."
"I think so, thank you," he said
pleasantly. "I do a lot
of traveling, so I pack very systematically."
When he had finally convinced
her and got rid of her, he
climbed in between the sheets and was preparing to read
himself to sleep over the Racing Form when the door
opened again to admit an utterly stupefying redhead in a
negligee to end all negligees.
"I'm Ginger Even," she announced.
"I wanted to be sure
your bed was comfortable."
"It is," he assured her.
"I hope you're not just being
tactful," she insisted.
"May I try it myself?"
"If you must," said the bookie
primly. "I will get out
while you do it."
When she had gone, he settled
down with a sigh of relief
and was about to put out the light at last when the door
burst open once more and the proprietor himself stomped
in, glowing with indignation.
"What's the matter with you,"
he roared. "I got to
listen all night to my daughters moaning an' wailing,
the most luscious gals in this county, because they all
try to show you hospitality an' you won't give one of
'em a tumble. Ain't us Evens good enough for you?"

Subj: Nate The Snake
From: Bobbyt's Place
Once apon a time, their lived
in a magical land a snake,
named Nate. In this land, actually rather close to Nate's
house there was a great road, and next to this road was a
lever. The lever was ancient, and the mythology around
the lever was that if you were to push it, it would
trigger the end of the world. One day, Nate was slithering
down the road, and he came upon the lever, and began
crossing the road so he could look at it. At the same
moment, a truck came careening around a corner, and the
driver found himself in a dilema: either hit the snake or
end the world. Needless to say, the driver ran over Nate
and went on his merry way. The moral of the story is:
Better Nate than Lever.

Subj: Fat Fly
From: TNKRTEACH on 97-07-10
There was a fly buzzing around
a barn one day when he
happened on a pile of fresh cow manure. Due to the fact
that it had been hours since his last meal, he flew down
and began to eat. He ate and ate and ate. Finally, he
decided he had eaten enough and tried to fly away. He
had eaten too much though, and could not get off the
As he looked around wondering
what to do now, he spotted
a pitchfork leaning up against the wall. He climbed to
the top of the handle and jumped off, thinking that once
he got airborne, he would be able to take flight.
Unfortunately he was wrong and dropped like a rock,
splatting when he hit the floor.
The moral to the story is: Never
fly off the handle when
you're full of sh*t.

Subj: 10 Winning Puns (S610c)
From: hellgunner50 on 9/16/2008
The ability to make and understand
PUNS is the highest
level of language development. Most great puns most
always are accompanied with a groan. Here are the top
10 winners in the International Pun Contest along with
your opportunity to groan. The first nine also appear
at other locations on my joke site.
1. A vulture boards an airplane,
carrying two dead
raccoons. The Stewardess looks at him and says, I'm
sorry, sir, only one carrion allowed per passenger.
2. Two fish swim into a concrete
wall. The one turns
to the other and says, 'Dam!'
3. Two Eskimos sitting in a
kayak were chilly, so they
lit a fire in the craft. Unsurprisingly, it sank,
proving once again that you cannot have your kayak
and heat it, too.
4. Two hydrogen atoms meet.
One says, 'I have lost my
electron.' The other says, 'Are you sure?' The first
replies, 'Yes, I am positive.'
5. Did you hear about the Buddhist
who refused Novocain
during a root canal? His goal: transcend dental
6. A group of chess enthusiasts
checked into a hotel and
were standing in the lobby discussing their recent
tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager
came out of the office and asked them to disperse. But
why they asked, as they moved off. 'Because,' he said,
'I cannot stand chess-nuts boasting in an open foyer.'
7. A woman has twins and gives
them up for adoption. One
of them goes to a family in Egypt and is named Ahmal.
The other goes to a family in Spain; they name him
Juan. Years later, Juan sends a picture of himself to
his birth mother. Upon receiving the picture, she
tells her husband that she wishes she also had a
picture of Ahmal. Her husband responds, 'They are
twins! If you have seen Juan, you have seen Ahmal.'
8. A group of friars were behind
on their belfry payments,
so they opened a small florist shop to raise funds.
Since everyone liked to buy flowers from the men of
God, a rival florist across town thought the compet-
ition was unfair. He asked the good fathers to close
down, but they would not. He went back and begged the
friars to close. They ignored him. So, the rival
florist hired Hugh MacTaggart, the roughest and most
vicious thug in town to 'persuade' them to close. Hugh
beat up the friars and trashed their store, saying he
would be back if they did not close up shop. Terrified
they did so, thereby proving that only Hugh can prevent
florist friars.
9. Mahatma Gandhi, as you know,
walked barefoot most of
the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses
on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him
rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from
bad breath. This made him a super calloused fragile
mystic hexed by halitosis.
10. And, finally, there was the
person who sent ten
different puns to friends, with the hope that at
least one of the puns would make them laugh. No
pun in ten did.

Southampton can move six points clear at the top of the Championship if they beat Bristol City at St Mary's tonight, cementing their status as favourites to regain the Premier League place they lost in 2005.
Promoted from League One last season thanks to a late run of 13 wins in their final 15 games, Nigel Adkins' side have carried on where they left off in an impressive opening half of the season. The big question is whether they can stay the course and follow the example of Norwich City, who reached the top flight this season after back-to-back promotions. Adkins, manager since September 2010, knows what it takes to earn promotion after leading from the front, having done it with Scunthorpe United in League One in 2006-07.
"I said at the start of the campaign that if we can get to January in the top 10 then we'll have an opportunity to win the race," he said. "We've led for the last three months, which shows that we've been consistent and have the hunger to be promoted back to the Premier League. We will be promoted back to the Premier League, but will it be this season? Time will tell."
But if he is cautious in considering the future, Adkins is not surprised by his team's showing so far. "No, we've got good players, good team spirit, and we play football the right way, I believe. We do try to pass the football but we try to do it effectively. There's no point passing for the sake of it."
It has worked best at St Mary's, the 2-2 draw with Blackpool on 10 December being the first match they had failed to win at home since a FA Cup fourth-round defeat by Manchester United in January. Their Achilles' heel is their record on the road, where results, including a 2-0 defeat by this evening's opponents on 26 November, have been average at best. They visit both West Ham and Middlesbrough, their closest pursuers, in the new year, but Adkins insists that performances away from home have been as good as at St Mary's.
"In any competition, when you're playing the leader, you automatically up your game and performance levels, so that has happened," he said. "Teams come to St Mary's with a game plan to unsettle us, but we've done very well [there] and we've done very well away from home – when you analyse the games we've lost, we should have won all four. We had enough chances."
Significantly, one of the defeats, against Doncaster Rovers, came in the absence through injury of striker Rickie Lambert, a £1m signing by Alan Pardew, Adkins' predecessor, from Bristol Rovers in August 2009. The 29-year-old has dispelled doubts about his ability to produce at the higher level with 17 goals in all competitions this season, including two hat-tricks.
Arguably the best testament to the club's prospects was the decision of Adam Lallana, the England Under-21 winger, to sign a new contract last January, claiming that he felt that he could fulfil his ambitions at St Mary's, while other Saints academy products Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, both now with Arsenal, took a short cut to the Premier League.
"You have to play to your strengths, and passing is our strength, and I think we are getting better at it the more comfortable we become," Lallana said. "Rickie up top is an unbelievable target man, but he can play as well, which he has proved this season, and if we need to mix it up we have that option. We haven't picked up as many points away as we'd like but, in an inconsistent league, we have managed to be unbelievably consistent at home."

Moody's (MCO) fourth-quarter results beat estimates, led by growth in its research unit, and the ratings firm gave upbeat earnings guidance.
The operator of the second-largest ratings agency said Q4 EPS jumped 13.3% to 85 cents. Analysts polled by Thompson Reuters were expecting 75 cents.
Revenue rose 3.3% to $779.2 million, above estimates for $743.8 million. Operating margin widened to 40% from 34.5%.
Shares climbed 6% on the stock market today.
U.S. revenue rose 3% to $417.2 million, and international revenue also rose 3% to $362 million.
Global corporate finance revenues dipped 1% to $242.6 million as U.S. bond issuance fell. But global structured finance revenue increased 6% to $108.8 million on increased issuance of commercial mortgage-backed securities and securities from real estate investment trusts.
Revenue from Moody's Analytics jumped 9% to $256.4 million, led by growth in research and analysis services as well as support for bank stress testing.
"While we anticipate variable market conditions in 2014, we nonetheless expect revenue growth across all areas of our business," CEO Raymond McDaniel said in the earnings release.
The company sees full-year EPS of $3.90-$4.00, the midpoint well above analyst estimates for $3.91.
Earlier this week competitor McGraw Hill Financial (MHFI), which owns S&P, reported profit that topped estimates and issued bullish guidance on 2014.

The God Of Creation (1 of 48) by Stan Coffey
This content is part of a series.The God Of Creation (1 of 48)
Series: Creation or Evolution?
Dr. Stan Coffey
Genesis 1:1
September 14, 1986
AUTHORSHIP: Long before the first century A.D., Moses was declared the author ofenesis, and Josephus, the first century Jewish historian, accepted mosaic authorship. Furthermore, the eternal evidence of the entire Pentateuch, the first five books of the Bible, favors mosaic authorship. (Exodus 17:14; 24:4-8; Deut. 31:9,22). Its divine revelation and the fact that Moses is the author is authenticated by the testimony of Jesus in Matthew 5:17-30 and John 7:21-23.
DATE: 1445 BC to 1405 BC. Moses probably wrote this book after his experience at the burning bush (Ex. 3:1-8), sometime between his 80th birthday and the closing years of the wilderness march.
THEME: The origin, development, and purpose of all things. Significantly, the major doctrines of Christianity appear in the first 11 chapters of Genesis. The word "Genesis" means "origin or source" and Genesis is the seed plot of the entire scripture.
Almost every subject of major importance has its roots in Genesis.
God is not argued and the nature and being of God is not explained. He's just presented. "In the beginning God"
A. There Are Evidences For God But No Proofs For God
B. The Believer Accepts The Fact Of God By Faith - The Unbeliever Accepts By Faith That There Is No God
C. Intellectual Superiority Has Nothing To Do With Whether Or Not One Believes In God - It is not a matter of intellect it is a matter of choice
D. God Deals With Atheism In One Half Of One Verse In The Bible - Psalm 53:1 "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God."
1. The word for "fool" is the Hebrew word "Nabal." It refers to the morally perverse person.
2. Psalms 53:1 literally says the fool hath said in his heart "no God."
3. There is a God shaped vacuum in every heart. Many people try to overcome their knowledge of God by choosing not to believe. ...

Brain On Jazz: Novel Study Puts Pianists In MRI Scanners To Show Link Between Music, Language
WASHINGTON - Jazz musicians are famous for their musical conversations — one improvises a few bars and another plays an answer. Now research shows some of the brain's language regions enable that musical back-and-forth much like a spoken conversation.
It gives new meaning to the idea of music as a universal language.
The finding, published Wednesday in the journal PLoS One, is the latest in the growing field of musical neuroscience: Researchers are using how we play and hear music to illuminate different ways that the brain works.
And to Dr. Charles Limb, a saxophonist-turned-hearing specialist at Johns Hopkins University, the spontaneity that is a hallmark of jazz offered a rare chance to compare music and language.
"They appear to be talking to one another through their instruments," Limb explained. "What happens when you have a musical conversation?"
Watching brains on jazz requires getting musicians to lie flat inside a cramped MRI scanner that measures changes in oxygen use by different parts of the brain as they play.
An MRI machine contains a giant magnet — meaning no trumpet or sax. So Limb had a special metal-free keyboard manufactured, and then recruited 11 experienced jazz pianists to play it inside the scanner. They watched their fingers through strategically placed mirrors during 10-minute music stretches.
Sometimes they played scales. Other times, they did what's called "trading fours," where the pianist made up four bars, and then Limb or another musician-scientist in the lab improvised four bars in return, and the pianist responded with still new notes.
That conversation-like improvisation activated brain areas that normally process the syntax of language, the way that words are put together into phrases and sentences. Even between their turns playing, the brain wasn't resting. The musicians were processing what they were hearing to come up with new sounds that were a good fit.
At the same time, certain other regions of the brain involved with language — those that process the meaning of words — were tuned down, Limb found.
That makes sense because "the richness of the structure of music is what gives it its significance," Limb said. "You can have substantive discourse using music, without any words, yet language areas of the brain are involved in this unique way."
One ultimate goal of musical neuroscience is to better understand the brain's circuitry, and how it can rewire itself, in hopes of eventually finding new treatments for neural disorders. Limb made headlines several years ago when he measured jazz musicians' riffs — longer, solo improvisations — to study creativity in the brain.
"We know nothing about how the brain innovates," he said. "This is one way to learn what innovation means neurologically."
Stay tuned: Next he hopes to study children who are just learning music, and to compare amateurs to professionals, as he explores how people become creative.
Any time you encounter "meaning threat" -- that unsettling feeling you get when something makes no sense -- your brain starts to work harder, says Travis Proulx, a researcher at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Test-takers were almost twice as accurate in analyzing data and learning patterns after Proulx and his colleague made them read bizarre, nonsensical stories by Kafka and David Lynch. Try this: Expose yourself to unusual experiences that may surprise or confuse you. There's no surefire prescription for "meaning threat," but experiment with immersive avant-garde theater (like Sleep No More) or David Lynch-style surrealist shorts (humanoid rabbits muttering non sequiturs -- chew on that)…or hightail it to a country where you don't know the language or customs (Other research has found that people are 20 percent more likely to solve difficult problems after thinking back to culture-shock experiences they had when living abroad.)
A University of Illinois study found that thinkers were better at coming up with creative solutions when working in a somewhat noisy space than in a quiet room. A certain level of background noise is distracting enough to nudge a stymied brain to think more abstractly -- which enhances creativity, the researchers discovered. Try this: Leave your quiet comfort zone when stumped. The place you settle in must be energetic, but not too loud. The cognitive sweet spot is about 70 decibels, the noise level of a busy café. (A plus: The caffeine you'll drink will speed you up and help you recall information better. Add sugar to enhance the effects.)
Chewing gum (even the sugar-free stuff) helps us stick to a task—and be faster and more accurate at it, too, finds a study at Cardiff University in Great Britain. In two studies involving auditory pattern and visual memory tests, gum chewers outperformed their peers. Exercising the jaw -- constantly, rhythmically -- increases blood flow to brain regions responsible for attention. This keeps us focused, even as we're doing something tedious. Try this: The longer you chew, the greater the benefit. At 30 minutes, gum-chewers remained more focused on their task than the empty-mouthed.
No doubt, yoga is a wonder exercise—it tones muscles, tames monkey mind and even burns some calories. But there's one area in which it can fall short: as a cardio workout. Only aerobic exercise -- and most yoga doesn't qualify -- gave rise to increases in brain volume in regions related to memory and attention, found a University of Illinois study that tracked older adults who followed various fitness training regimens. Aerobic activity is the best for raising levels of brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF), a protein that encourages neurons to grow. Try this: Three one-hour sessions of aerobic exercise (jogging, speed-walking, bicycling) a week for six months, as prescribed in the study. Even a short, high-intensity aerobic exertion -- like sprinting -- can dramatically raise BDNF, resulting in 20 percent faster learning in one study. For yogis who want an all-in-one workout, add pulse-raising Vinyasa Flow or Power Yoga to your practice and (this applies to everyone) a dose of meditation—also proven to help us focus and retain information.
TV shows, novels, loopy messages scribbled on the sidewalk -- anything can launch new ideas and insights if you "zoom out" enough, say Sandra Bond Chapman and Shelly Kirkland in their new book, Make Your Brain Smarter. The key to a stronger frontal lobe is "integrated reasoning" -- finding ways to connect new information to your own life experiences and knowledge. Try this: Instead of simply following the plotline of a book or TV show, come up with insights or take-home messages that you can apply to your life. Everything can be mined: Downton Abbey for money lessons, Jane Austen for life advice, anything. When study participants pushed their minds this way, they showed cognitive gains after just six hours of training and significant structural changes in the brain's white matter connections in six to12 weeks. "Mental weight-lifting" is not like physical exercise, Kirkland says. You must do this throughout your day, as often as possible, continually.
You might look and sound crazy (especially sans earbuds), but who cares? Talking to oneself (aloud or not) is now a scientifically proven brain-booster, finds a review of 32 self-talk intervention studies from the University of Thessaly in Greece. It helps you to pay attention, steadies you emotionally and cues you to act. Try this: Self-talk is most effective when learning something new or enhancing performance. Little instructions (Do this. OK. Now, do that) are more helpful than "atta-girl" self-cheering, the researchers found. In one study, athletes ran faster when they spoke cue words to themselves (push, heel) through a race.
Writing longhand -- not texting and typing -- stimulates brain regions involved in thinking, language and memory. In an MRI study at the University of Indiana, children who wrote out letters ("learning by doing," not just "seeing") showed more complex neural activation patterns than those who didn't. Try this: Use longhand, especially when learning foreign alphabets, mathematics and music (or anything else involving letters or symbols). You may recall the information faster and for longer than if you typed it, just as adult students did in a study that involved recognizing Mandarin characters. (If ballpoints are too archaic for you, use apps like Plus or Antipaper Notes for hand-writing on your gadget.)
Your translation may be fuzzy, but your reasoning is clearer when you work out a problem in a foreign language, finds a University of Chicago study that asked bilinguals to make decisions. Speaking in a foreign tongue distanced them emotionally from the matter at hand -- and they became more deliberate and unbiased in their thinking. Try this: If you speak a second language (even imperfectly), use it when you need to be especially logical, like when making tough financial decisions, the researchers suggest. Should you pay down your mortgage? Sell your penny stocks? Buy a castle? The best answer may come to you more easily than conjugating the subjunctive.
