Oregon uses new technology to upgrade curve advisory speed signs to meet new FHWA requirements
Over the course of the next three years, the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) will use new technology to update curve advisory speed signs around the state, to take into account the dynamic advances in modern vehicles.
The agency estimates that some 50-75% of all the state's curve speed advisory signs will change over the next three to four years, with most seeing an increase in the advisory speed of 5-10mph (8-16km/h) to better match each individual curve. There are three main reasons for ODOT's program:
• New federal requirements improve safety and create consistency, with updated Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) procedures requiring consistency of curve advisory speeds on all public roads. Consistency in curve signing means that a bend with an advisory speed of 40mph in the Willamette Valley will feel similar to a 40mph curve in Baker County or a 40mph curve in another state;
• The use of new technology allows ODOT to determine advisory speeds for curves with greater certainty; current speeds were set using the analog tools that have now been replaced with GPS-aided digital tools;
• Vehicles, road design and pavements have advanced, with newer vehicles able to corner with increased speeds, while maintaining a comfortable ride. Oregon's roads have also benefited in the past several decades from improved design and advanced pavements, creating safer, smoother roads.
Current advisory speeds were set by investigators using the 'ball bank' indicator method, which involved driving curves multiple times to calculate how far to the right or left a ball suspended in liquid traveled in its arc. The variability inherent in the method, and irregularities in road surfaces, contributed to setting inconsistent and conservative advisory speeds, which is why so many drivers are comfortable going faster than the posted advisory speeds. In addition, roadway crews would sometimes reduce speeds even further on curves where other problems occurred. ODOT now employs GPS technology that allows an engineer to drive a curve fewer times and provides more consistent and reliable results. Special software processes the data after each trip, so engineers can set the correct advisory speed.
Now ODOT are using a dashboard-mounted Curve Advisory Reporting System (CARS) from Rieker Inc, which combines a software package with GPS integrated accelerometer technology to deliver a completely portable system, that meets new Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidelines on how to determine safe curve speed. It allows the operator to drive as many miles of road in a day as needed, even stop and go rush hour traffic. They can then review and analyze individual curve data anytime on any computer. There is no need for multiple passes, constant speeds, or manual data input, making the job safer, faster, and better value. For the rest of the article click here

There are things that were at one time only suspected as real that have since been proven to be exactly that. Atoms were once considered as only fantasy until they were proven to exist. Given enough time, and the right tools, every dream of mankind may be proven to be real.I see that the inability to disprove unicorns is once again trumpeted by god's champions as proof of their position.

Still waiting on Polymath's response to post #13617.
While waiting we might as well dig into another one of this logical fallacies. I will formulate this as another simple question for him.
The two mathematical time dilation models (GR and SR) produce testable quantitative results from observational input fed into the equations. The questions for Polymath here is:
Are the results produced by combined relativistic mathematical time dilation model to be considered testable predictions of the model?
If the quantitative results from the time dilation model are not actual predictions of model, what the heck are they?

Sorry, but I thought it was so ignorant of how scienc3e actually proceeds and *should* proceed that you might be able to figure it out for yourself.
Yes, we get to do calculations based on our observations and use the results of those calculations to test our ideas. For example, we can measure, using our own devices, the location of another object and the events happening on that object. This allows us to determine the time dilation on a moving ship. The results of such a calculation are the predictions of the model. if the time dilation were different, the observations would be different and would thereby show the model to be wrong.
Yes, of course they are. The model predicts the results of observations and calculations based on those observations. The general relativistic model subsumes the special relativistic model by including the effects of gravity.
Why do you have the impression that they are NOT predictions of the model? The model makes very definite predictions about the results of observations and the calculations based on those observations. Those *are* the 'quantitative results' of the model.

#13631 Oct 19, 2012
When a quantitative prediction of a mathematical model is shown to be incorrect the model is falsified.
As an example in the twin paradox the two brothers (only one accelerates) produce identical calculations from the quantitative model. Even theoretically it is certain that at least one of those quantitative predictions will fail miserably upon observation of the facts when the traveler returns.
So you will always have at least one miserably failing prediction of the time dilation model. So what needs to be falsified in your view? Or is it just fine in "your science" when quantitative predictions fail miserably?

No, this is wrong. The model gives different predictions. it predicts the accelerated twin will age less.
Once again, your lack of understanding does not falsify the model.

These calculations have been shown in reality to be as predicted by several different methods also haven't they?
I know when we talk of the twin paradox it is just a mind twister
into understanding LR and SR , but real figures have been done
on smaller scales that match the groundwork done by Lorentz and Einstein , so I don't understand what hb is arguing about.
I posted this link hoping he would read it, ill do it again.
Also the Gravity B probe has shown GR to be correct also.
So how can hb argue about it when real world tests have confirmed the theories?

#13637 Oct 20, 2012
So then, lets look at the good old twins paradox. Can you produce quantitative predictions as calculated by both twins that numerically agree on the aging of both twins?
Choose which ever acceleration and velocity for the traveling twin that suits you best. Lets see if you can produce two simple predictions or if you in fact have been uttering nonsense here.
I find your comments very funny. Just put your money where your mouth is and give me two simple quantitative predictions that agree on the aging of the twins.

Can you produce agreeing quantitative predictions as calculated by the two twins?
Or will you admit your defeat and declare the relativistic model FALSE?

Here you go:
That's somewhat off topic though...
Do you have any argument supporting the relativistic model how you could produce two identical ageing predictions as calculated by both twins in the twins paradox?
I would very much like to hear an logical argument from you, or from *anyone*. Anyone?
Otherwise it's looking very very grim for the relativistic model.
Or do you just have blind faith in the relativistic model???

Sure. Take twin 1 and twin 2. Suppose that twin 1 stays at home, unaccelerated,
while twin 2 moves away at .8*c, goes to a station at a distance of 8 light years,
turns around returns at .8*c.
The total trip from the point of view of twin 1 is 10 years out, 10 years back,
for a total of 20 years. The time dilation factor for a velocity of .8*c is
sqrt(1-.8^2)=.6 so twin 1 predicts that the trip out will be 6 years long for
twin 2 and the same for the trip back, for a total aging of 12 years for twin 2.
Twin 1 prediction: twin 1 ages 20 years, twin 2 ages 12 years.
The story from the perspective of twin 2 is more complicated because twin 2 changes
reference frames at the half-way point. We have to see how those two reference
frames relate to each other.
The first part of the trip is easy enough: twin 2 sees twin 1 moving away at .8*c
and the station approaching at the same speed. But there is a length contraction
factor of .6, so the station initially appears to be only 4.8 light years away,
so it takes 4.8/.8 =6 years for the station and twin 2 to meet up. Similarly,
twin 2 says the return trip will also take 6 years, for a total of 12 years.
So far we have complete agreement between the two twins. The whole question reduces
to how much twin 2 predicts that twin 1 will age during the trip.
For notation, let (x,t) be the spacetime coordinates that ship 1 gives to an event,
(x',t') the coordinates that twin 2 gives for the outward journey and (x'',t'') the
coordinates for the inward journey. The complications come from the fact that the inward
and outward journeys are in different frames. Now, at the beginning of the trip,
(x,t)=(0,0)=(x',t') and at the midpoint,(x',t')=(0,6)=(x'',t' '). Also, the relative
velocity between the (x',t') frame and the (x'',t'') frame is (.8+.8)/(1+.8^2)=40/41.
The dilation factor between these two frames is sqrt(1-(40/41)^2)=9/41.
Now, the Lorentz transformation between the first two frames is given by
x'=(x-.8*t)/.6=5*x/3 -4*t/3
And that between the primed frames is
I take into account that t'=t''=6 when turning around.
Now, ship 1 has coordinates (0,t) when its clock reads t. This becomes
(x',t')=(-(4/3)*t,(5/3)*t) for the outbound twin.
Now, plug this into the x'' equation and set x''=0 to determine the t value when the
two ships meet again. Well, x''=[-(4/3)*t +(40/41)*[(5/3)*t-6]]*(9/41).
You can check that x''=0 when t=20, so twin 1 is predicted to age 20 years. So, again,
we have agreement.

Defendants usually don't wind up charged in federal court more than once. The feds carry such a big bat at sentencing, it is usually one and done. Two federal cases are rare. Three times is ... worthy of a blog.
Gerald L. Moore, pictured at right, was convicted of bank robbery in 1982 in federal court, got 15 years and was out by 1994.
The following year Moore was convicted of bank robbery again in federal court, this time getting 13 years. He walked free in October 2007. On Dec. 15, 2008, it was deja vu all over again, according to a criminal complaint.
This time, Moore had his nephew, 30-year-old Eric T. Moore, at right, as an accomplice, the complaint says. The older Moore, who is 65 and uses a cane, drove the 2004 maroon Buick LeSabre while the younger Moore was the stick-up guy, it says.
With his hand in his coat pocket and wearing a fake beard, the younger Moore walked in the Equitable Bank in Germantown, pulled out what appeared to be a handgun (apparently was a BB gun) and demanded cash, the complaint says.
The Moores sped away but Germantown police were on their tail, thanks to an alert citizen. The younger Moore bailed at 87th and Villard and the cops caught up the older Moore at Green Tree Road in Glendale.
The older Moore wouldn't talk, but thanks to police work -- following footprints in the snow -- authorities found the younger Moore, along with his get-up. Missing was the robbery take, which was less than $1,000. These days, maybe banks aren't where the money is at.

SS Planetary Party Lounge (Civ3)
this wiki
The list of buildings
One of ten components of the spaceship, which is used to achieve the Space Race victory type.
Civilopedia EntryEdit
Described as the most expensive discotheque and museum gallery ever made, the Planetary Party Lounge is the ultimate in terrestrial entertainment. With a full copy of the Library of the National Archives, including all human data able to be put on disk, the Planetary Party Lounge computers allow the colonists to read books, play video games, holographically browse art museums, and sample every existing bit of human culture from the most sublime to the least savory. Holographic instructional videos exist on all manners of craft and skill, from woodcarving to belly dancing, to help keep cultural traditions alive and archived for future generations of colonists. The finest entertainers from around the world have been recruited to accompany the colonists and keep them happy in their journey to the next star system, and professional masseuses and physical therapists are on hand to see to the pleasures of the body. But the center of social life on board the Space Ship is bound to be the 13 tiered central lounge, boasting a quaint rural pub, a bustling casino, a hip disco, an auditorium and concert hall, a full featured gymnasium with hot tub and swimming pool, and a number of restaurants, both large and small. With so much to do, the colonists and crew aren't likely to want to get back into their Stasis Chambers!

Nothing made me angrier than the fact that I wasn't told about the Cloning. Apparently I was one of the first people to be cloned; but there were a few others who were in line. This line, I learnt, was a line of people who had been dead for a while. Their bodies were preserved in a special juice which kept the blood running through the body so that it could be used to exactly clone the person.
The only reason that I had been cloned was because they needed a test run and because I was already pronounced legally dead- I was the perfect victim. To be able to be cloned cost money. A lot of money…
None of the bodies (they were called bodies and not people because they were legally brain dead) had raised enough money to be cloned.
Cloning involved having a litre of your blood (for optimum results) into a funnel leading into a special machine. Out of the machine came an embryo which took about two weeks to develop.
After that, it was only a matter of time before the clone looks, feels, talks and acts like the original person. They had recognized that some pathways in the brain had connected which normal humans didn't have; but they didn't realise what those pathways created.
The pathways caused my eyes to be able to be clearer and better than any normal person. One of the pathways gave me the power to influence others emotions and another let me bring inanimate objects to life.
I didn't even know what else I could do. But at least I knew now. I was a clone.

When I tell people that I work from home, the first question I'm often asked is, "Do you get to work in your pajamas?" Let's face it, being warm and snuggly in an oversized pair of flannel pajamas in winter and staying cool and comfortable in practically nothing in summer is appealing. It's just one of the perks that come with having an office 10 feet from your bedroom, but have you ever considered the perks that come with wearing business attire even when working from home?
Consider the frame of mind you tend to be in for as long as you keep your pajamas on: I'm tired. I'm lazy. I want to go back to bed. I need a cup of coffee…yawn. Now consider the frame of mind you tend to be in once you get dressed into something snazzy: I'm ready to go! I've got a burst of energy! What should I do next?! I need a cup of half-caf, no-foam, non-fat, vanilla soy latte—make it a venti! Whoo!
With a perked up mind, you will find your desire shifts from wanting to crawl back under the covers to wanting to sit in front of your computer and get things done!
Don't let your can-do attitude fade, though. Keep yourself going by making sure you have clear goals in front of you (literally—write them down on a piece of paper and set it down in front of you). Break larger goals into smaller portions so that you can reward yourself by checking items off your list as you continue to work throughout the day. A sense of accomplishment will make you hungry for more.
Try to keep your desk organized and as neat as possible. A clutter-free workspace will contribute to a sense of professionalism, not to mention you will save time by being able to find everything you are looking for. You might want to add a few decorative touches to your office—perhaps a family photo, an inspirational poster or calendar, a small stack of your business cards, or anything else that will remind you that you are performing or training for a job and that job is important. Create an atmosphere which gives you a feeling that you are at office and not home.
This isn't to suggest that you run out to Macy's and buy a faux-leather-trim jacket and pants suit by Anne Klein for a small fortune, but instead to consider leaving the pajamas and bunny slippers behind in exchange for an outfit you'd be happy to answer the door in. If you really want to dress the part, add some accessories (omitting the clunky bracelet that drowns out the tappity-tap-tap of the keyboard, of course) and slip on a pair of shoes.
Changing your clothes changes your attitude. Once you dress in professional attire, you will feel more like a professional. You will notice your posture improve, your focus sharpen, your motivation increase, and, consequently, you will be more productive. Don't believe me? Try it. I dare you.

I still build my own. I think I will always do this. Very simple to do, very upgradable, and a whole lot more PC for the buck. I can spend about $1k and get a PC that would cost closer to $2500 or $3000 if it was an Alienware or something similar.
The only PC I buy are laptops. I love my Samsung Series 9!
Alienware is the biggest ripoff out there.
You aren't telling me anything I didn't already know. :laugh2:
I feel bad for the people who actually buy their products and don't realize how bad of a deal you're getting.
Thanks for all the responses, except for McCoy : , but for now I'll stick with what I have.

Applesauce Almond Ginger Cake Recipe
Diabetic Friendly Recipe
The optional ginger makes this recipe for Applesauce Almond Ginger Cake an acceptable gingerbread. You can also leave out the ginger and add 3 or 4 tablespoons of cocoa (or you could use carob) to make a tasty but not very sweet or rich chocolate cake. If you use cocoa you might need to add extra sweetening, depending on your taste.
Recipe Ingredients
3 eggs
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
2-1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1-1/2 cup ground almonds
2 apples peeled, cored and finely chopped
1 8-ounce package cream cheese
3 tablespoons unsweetened apple butter
2 tablespoons frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed
Recipe Directions
Preheat oven to 350-degree. Grease and flour one 9-inch square baking pan. Beat the eggs until they drop like ribbons from the beaters. Continue beating and add the oil in a thin stream. Beat in the 1-cup applesauce and the 1-cup unsweetened apple juice concentrate.
Beat in the flour gradually until well blended. Add the baking soda, ground ginger, ground almonds and apples, mix to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake at 350-degrees for about 40 minutes or until the cake tests done. Let cake cool on a rack for 15 minutes before turning out of pan. Cool completely before frosting. Carefully slice the cake in half horizontally with a long serrated knife. Fill and frost with Apple Butter Frosting.
To Make Apple Butter Frosting
Beat the cream cheese until soft and fluffy. Gradually beat in the apple butter and remaining 2-tablespoons apple juice concentrate.

text: DRAPER, Utah, May 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc (OTCBB: FLXT), today discussed development of the 16 commercial applications currently using Bend Sensor technology, ranging from safety systems to medical devices. Over the past several months, Flexpoint has seen its Bend Sensor's reputation for performance, durability and uniqueness cemented through intensive testing and growing demand for use in a large and growing array of products and devices, including many related to safety. The 16 companies currently using and ordering custom made Bend Sensors are developing products that are progressing through advanced stages of development with several on the verge of entering highly lucrative commercial markets. Bend Sensor technology is a key component in a developing safety system for ambulances, garbage and commercial truck applications that will likely soon be mandated for use in all such vehicles. "We are seeing our strategy of developing proof of concept through commercial applications continuing to yield results," said Flexpoint President Clark Mower. "There are few applications more demanding of performance and reliability than those pertaining to safety and health. It is rewarding to see the acceptance and the efficacy of our patented Bend Sensor technology for clients in these diverse applications." These applications are poised for rapid growth, and any of the applications could produce a major annual contract after years of testing and development. "As we continue to generate confidence in the Bend Sensor's elite durability and performance, we strengthen our position with prospective clients, and we are confident we will see our product expand into many other industries and products," Mower said. "The bottom line is we believe the products we have in the market and on the horizon could take off at any time, representing millions of dollars in potential revenues, and are only the beginning for the Bend Sensor."

Where I stayed
Dawn & Clive
It was a very windy, unpleasant day, so we spent most of the time playing bridge. Luckily we 4 are all of a similar standard.
In the afternoon, one of Dawn & Clive's sons Kevin, with his wife Bev & Lauren came round.
We four all went out to dinner that evening.
Not the most exciting day, but the weather was foul, and it was good to just relax and chill.

Adding insult to injury...what a concept!"Naturally, these people will be arrested and their assets will be confiscated,"

In an ...
Among the hippies, rockers, free spirits and other Bonnaroo revelers partying in Manchester today will be a less likely festival figure: the taxman.
In an example of Tennessee's controversial drug tax in action, state revenue agents plan to collect fees on the illegal substances that some concertgoers bring for personal use and sale.
It's not an effort to curb drug use for some, a Bonnaroo tradition that has sent tens to the hospital and a few to the morgue but to make sure state and local authorities recoup drug enforcement costs.
For an ounce and a half of marijuana, just above the limit for a misdemeanor drug charge, the tax amounts to about $165, said Al Laney, director of tax enforcement for the state revenue department.
"Naturally, these people will be arrested and their assets will be confiscated," Laney said. "We assess a person while they're under arrest and seize any assets that law enforcement may want to turn over to us."
The state tax on felony amounts of drugs rates vary by substance started in January 2005 and has sparked an ongoing legal battle over the fairness and legality of the fee.
State agents have collected $5.4 million so far, with an untold portion of that coming from their efforts at Bonnaroo, the only event in the state manned by tax agents.
147 arrested in 2006
Between 30 and 40 concertgoers in 2005 faced taxes and fines, estimated Laney, who could not provide exact statistics.
Coffee County sheriff's officers, who help inspect vehicles entering the concert grounds, arrested 147 people in 2006, many on drug charges. More than 200 were cited, Sheriff Stephen Graves said.
One of those was retired law professor Thomas Schornhorst's 17-year-old grandson from Alabama, who was stopped on the way into the show with a bag of plant material.
Tax agents took the $200 the youth had on him, told him he owed more than $5,000 and threatened to confiscate the truck he rode in on, his grandfather says.
Lab tests later showed that the bag contained no illegal substances and the fines were dropped. Still, Schornhorst bristled at what he says is the state's disregard for due process.
"They're just taking money from people on the spot knowing that these people won't be able to find lawyers to challenge them," Schornhorst said.
A revenue department spokeswoman confirmed that agents have confiscated vehicles in the past when dealing with large amounts of drugs or people from out of state.
When not working Bonnaroo, agents team up with law enforcement on drug busts or assess taxes by mail on arrestees regardless of whether they're convicted.
State officials placed a tax lien on the home of Williamson County Sheriff Ricky Headley this year after he was arrested on charges of illegally buying thousands of prescription drugs.
Drug carriers can buy stamps anonymously from the revenue department in Nashville. Tax officials are prohibited by law from disclosing the information to law enforcement authorities.
The stamps, when affixed to bags of drugs, prove to the state that the possessor has already paid taxes.
The program hasn't been popular, Laney said.
So far no drugs confiscated by police have carried the markers, and some speculate that the small number of stamps sold in Tennessee have gone to collectors, he said.
Adding insult to injury...what a concept!"Naturally, these people will be arrested and their assets will be confiscated,"

I'm sure there are Libertarians who think that it's a misuse of government to penalize people who take organic drugs. I'm ambivalent to most (harmless*) drug users but a staunch anti regarding the chemical soups that pass for recreational substances.
The law is still the law until changed.
That said I do question the logic of anyone traveling to rural TN to sell/consume illegal drugs... not the smartest of life choices.
I can only imagine how much it alters the 'buzz' to have your car confiscated because you didn't pay duty on the bag of weed.
*harmless defined as only wasting your own life and breaking your mother's heart because at age 30 you're still in her basement thinking you're one of The Ramones, as opposed to 'harmful', defined as leaving the basement and interacting with society.

I have some "friends" from high school who in their mid thirties live still with their parents, waiting for their "Band" to take off. When I go home to visit my parents, they always talk about getting a gig on a curise ship, or there last CD got some air time on the local radio station.
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
Well, it's started...http://wdef.com/news/drug_busts_slow...nnaroo/06/2007Thousands of Bonnaroo concert goers weren't the only ones out on the intestate on Thursday.
So were the police... In force.
This backup on I-24 this afternoon was caused by a traffic stop.
Hamilton County deputies pulled over a car headed for the festival.
They arrested four people on drug charges and confiscated the vehicle and all of it's contents.
Almost every week I learn something else new about the state that we moved to a year and a half ago that makes me even happier to have moved my family here.
I am 100% anti drug ( in fact I have been told by more than one person that I was the only person that they had ever met that had never tried any type of illegal drug) and this makes tons of sense to me. I hope it does actually cut down on drug use in Tennessee. Seems like it would....or at least be a heck of a monetary deterrent.

My wife is involved in state government, she remembers that when this law came in it was widely considered to be a clever move. As things stood the state didn't want to incarcerate more people for misdemeanor drug offenses, but they wanted higher penalties. This 'tax' achieved that and also creates a very healthy revenue for TN.
So the kids get less incentive to buy weed knowing that it can become a criminal tax evasion charge on top of the standard offense, and those that aren't put off and get caught probably don't re-offend in a hurry.
There will be some really good Police auctions down in Manchester later in the year...
Sweet, more control on what people do with their own body. The Nanny state is awesome.
...He suggested that "every American citizen" should own a rifle and train with it on firing ranges "at every courthouse." -Chesty Puller
But, it's drugs. While I don't believe the propaganda surrounding the war on drugs I do know that recreational drugs negatively effect lives more than they help.
I've been to Holland, Morocco, Thailand, India, Cambodia... I've seen the burnouts living just for drugs. I lived in West London and saw rich and poor hustling away their dignity for little bags of crap.
We're better than this, mankind doesn't have to be stoned to operate. It's an option, it's an easy way out of whatever you are facing, it's weak. And it does effect others.
I would vote against incarceration for possession, but for prohibitive fines.
And with respect I realize that YMMV.
No doubt about it that people who use drugs do bad things. I don't use them or drink either. The question though; do you support individual liberty?
I don't want people telling me what to do or how to live my life. I don't want antis telling me I can carry a gun or not because they have some kind of moral issue with it.
So, to be fair, I don't think I should be able to tell another individual what he should do with his own body. If he kills someone driving a car while stoned or something, then charge him with murder and put him in jail or take him out back and shoot him in the head. If he steals to get drugs, then send him to jail for stealing. Maybe we could concentrate on getting our solved murder cases rate over 65% as a nation instead of putting tons of people in prison for harming theirselves.
This is of course aside from the fact that the War on Drugs is an absolute failure and waste of tons of money every year.
Or really it could be summed up by this quote:
I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than those attending too small a degree of it.
Thomas Jefferson
...He suggested that "every American citizen" should own a rifle and train with it on firing ranges "at every courthouse." -Chesty Puller
If after they've "dosed" themselves, they turn and physically harm someone, or steal to get the money to pay for the drugs...fine. Bust them for that which is as it should be. If someone wants to throw away their own otherwise healthy life...thats their decision. The second the Government or you or I meddle in someone elses decision...we cease to be free and we take in vein the blood spilled to protect this country.
I also have been to countries where drug use is legal. It is not the perfect utopia that the druggies would have you believe that it is. It is a huge crushing welfare state that will collapse under its own weight sooner or later. Possibly later since the entire European Union is now shouldering the load. But non the less, I do not want to see this greatest of all nations turn down that road.
I believe in rights, but I also believe that when your civil rights infringe on my pursuit of happiness because of your behavior, then it is your behavior that should be limited, not my happiness.
In other words, when my taxes are being used to provide treatment to the drugged out losers, I should be able to limit through legislation their ability to get those drugs.
That's not a Nanny state, that is a representative Republic working just as it should.

They are taxing something that has been declared as illegal.
I dont beleive that that is legal.
For them to "tax" it would seem to assume that it is a legal activity,when clearly it is not.
Am I looking at this wrong ? To me it seems like a conflict of interests if nothing else.
And while I am all for enforcement of illegal activites, this is over the top...in this case the government is acting the part of an extortionist by demanding a "tax". On one hand they say its illegal, on the other hand they say you own taxes on it. What a bunch of baloney.
Some lawyer is gonna get rich off of this before its over.

Chapter 2: Queens and Griffins
Chapter 2
Queens and Griffins
When Axel regained consciousness he found himself lying on a grand bed in a magnificent room, with the familiar cloaked man watching over him. He sat up on the bed, dazed and confused.
"Where am I?" he asked, almost sounding drunk.
"You are in the royal palace," the man answered.
"The royal palace?"
"Yes, this is where I reside."
"Who are you exactly?"
For the first time since they met, the man took down the hood that hid his face, to reveal a strong man with tribal markings all over his head. His eyes were a smoldering grey, but Axel was to afraid to look directly into them.
"My name is Akteal, and I am the Queen's right hand man," the man replied.
"Who is the Queen?" Axel enquired.
"She is the Queen of Light and she rules over this land. Her husband is the King of Darkness."
"But aren't light and dark meant to be enemies?"
"That is the way it is meant to be in your world, but in my world they live in harmony and have done so for as long as I can remember."
"What do you mean by "my world"?"
"This is not your world."
"I'm in a different world?!"
Axel jumped up in the air and banged his head off of the top of the bed.
"Calm yourself," Akteal said in a calming tone, "I will take you down shortly to meet them both. But first you must shower. The Queen does not like her guests to stink."
Axel was about to shout at him, but then he sniffed himself and Akteal was right, he did stink.
Akteal then left the room so Axel could get ready. He found a new pair of clothes waiting for him when he came out of the shower. Once he was dressed he made his way out into the corridor. His new outfit was made of the finest materials. The two colours they were made of were black and white. He watched the many servants and soldiers walking past him, looking so peaceful. He eventually found himself at what looked like a glass elevator, and that's where Akteal was waiting for him.
"I see you were able to find your way here," he said, "Come now, we must go down to the throne room. Step into the elevator and we'll make our way there."
There were many floors to the palace, and it appeared that they were coming down from the very top. Down and down they went, until they finally made it to the ground floor, where they were facing a pair of enormous doors, one black and one white. Akteal placed his hands on the door and then they magically swung open. They made their way into the grand throne room, which was made out of a fusion of granite and marble. At the other end of the room sat two outstanding thrones, one for the King and one for the Queen. Axel and Akteal approached the thrones and Akteal kneeled down, pulling Axel down with him.
"Rise Akteal," the Queen said, "You too Axel."
The queen had a pale complexion and she was dressed in a beautiful white dress, which made her look like and angel. Her crystal white hair flowed down past her shoulders and glittered like starlight. The King had a slightly darker complexion and he was dressed in robes with a black cape. He had short hair as black as night, and his eyes seemed to be analyzing Axel very carefully.
They both got up off their knees and listened to what they had to say.
"I know all about you Axel," the Queen said, "I have learned many things from observing you and your world. This is my husband, Drako, and I am Litia. Together we rule over this land. I hope you had a good rest?"
Axel looked to Akteal before answering, "Yes, Your Highness."
The Queen giggled and then said, "That is good. My bed has healing powers. It seems that when you crossed over into this world, you tripped and fell, causing you to fall unconscious. I ordered Akteal to take you up to my chamber where you rested. Enough of my useless chatter. You probably want to know why I summoned you here. Well, I will let my husband explain."
"I have studied your world too," Drako began, "And I have studied your myths and legends. I'm sure Akteal has already explained this to you, but this world is different from yours in many ways, especially regarding light and dark. Here, light and dark have always lived in harmony, until now. Long ago, when my great great grandfather sat on this throne, a powerful group of cross-dimensional beings appeared in our world, and they did not like the idea of the harmony of light and darkness, so they began destroying our world and ripping apart the fabrics of our harmony.
Fortunately, my great great grandfather called together a band of knights and sealed away the ring leader, a ferocious creature named Brimlar, and he was sealed in a dimensional rift and was forgotten about. But very recently, Brimlar has managed to break free of his prison and has now began to wreak havoc once more. Luckily, my wife noticed a prophecy in our Sacred Book of Knowledge, which stated that a human would come to our world and exterminate Brimlar once and for all, using the almighty power of the Balance."
At this point Axel had to butt in.
"Your Majesty," he said, "May I ask, what is this Balance you speak of?"
"The Balance is the almighty power which we use to protect our world. It is the fusion of light and darkness, which is the greatest power in the whole universe. With this power you will be able to take down Brimlar. Anyway, when my wife told me of this prophecy we studied your world and when we cast our eyes on you we immediately knew that you were the human that the prophecy spoke of.
Now, in order to take on Brimlar, you must retrieve a sacred weapon called the Balance Sword. It was the weapon created by my great great grandfather and it was the weapon that helped seal away Brimlar. Once you have retrieved the Balance Sword we will tell you what to do next. Unfortunately, I do not know the exact location of the sword. All I know is that it is somewhere in your world. In order to get back to your world from here, you must go back through the arch which is situated in the great field in front of the palace. I will now let my wife continue."
The Queen then said, "Tell me Axel, have you ever heard of griffins?"
"Of course, Your Highness," Axel answered, "Why do you ask?"
"Well," she said, "Tell me what you know of them."
"I know that they are mythological creatures that were part lion and part eagle. I also know that, since the lion is considered as the King of the Jungle, and the eagle is considered the King of the Skies, the griffin is considered as the most powerful and majestic creature in the entire world."
"That is right, they are the most powerful creatures in the world. But the thing is, what is considered as myths in your world, are in fact real in our world. And it's not just griffins. The phoenix too, is also real in this world. There are many more as well, but I won't go into too much detail. Anyway, there is one particular griffin that lives in a cave not far from here, and you must seek his help if you want to succeed. His name is Eldak, and if you explain the situation he will agree to help you. You must hurry there now, for we must get you back to your own world as soon as possible. Akteal, you shall accompany Axel to Eldak's cave."
"Yes, Your Highness," Akteal said whilst kneeling again.
"That is all we have to say," the Queen concluded, "Go now and begin your journey."
Axel kneeled alongside Akteal, and then they left.
It was night time outside, but it was no problem for Akteal. His eyes were able to see through the thickest darkness, so he easily guided Axel through the marsh at the back of the palace and into the forest beyond. Nocturnal birds, which Axel believed to be owls, could be heard hooting away in the treetops. The trees in Akteal's world were a lot bigger than the ones in his own world. From time to time a wild wolf would jump out at them, but Akteal would simply wave his hands and the beast would run away whimpering. The moon was high up in the sky by the time they reached Eldak's cave. There was a small pile of bones from forest animals lying on the ground outside the cave entrance. Just as Axel stepped into the darkness of the cave, he heard a deep voice within, calling to him.
"Who goes there?" the voice asked.
"We have been sent by the King and Queen for your help," Akteal shouted back.
"What do you need my help for?"
"I have with me the boy that is spoke of in the prophecy."
At that moment they heard sounds coming from inside the cave, and they were getting closer. Just then, a powerful looking griffin appeared from the cave and stepped out into the moonlight. His fur was golden brown and his talons looked like they could cut through anything, even mountains. His face looked young and serious, his tail swishing behind him.
"I am Eldak," he said, "Is this really the boy from the prophecy?"
"It is," Akteal replied, "The King and Queen sent us for your help in our quest to exterminate Brimlar."
As soon as Akteal mention Brimlar's name, Eldak's talons gripped into the earth furiously.
"We must travel back to the boy's world to retrieve the weapon of old," Akteal continued, "Will you help us?"
Eldak paced around for a few moments, before giving his answer.
"I shall help," he replied, "Anything to slay that monster."
"We must leave now," Akteal said, "We need to make our way back to the great field."
"I will take you there. Hop on my back."
Eldak lowered his angelic wings to let them on. Axel cautiously followed Akteal onto the great beasts back, and in a matter of seconds they were off of the ground and up in the sky.
As they flew over the great field, they were able to spot the arch, so Eldak slowly landed onto the grass below. As they approached the arch they saw the King and Queen waiting for them. Again, they all kneeled before them, and the Queen gave the signal for them to get back up.
"Thank you for escorting the boy," Litia said to Eldak, "Akteal, make sure no harm befalls him."
"I will, Your Highness," Akteal replied.
"I will now open up the arch portal back to your world," Drako said, "I must warn you though, although it will be the exact same time as when you left, you will only have one day to find the sword, and at midnight I will open up the portal at the same time. Good luck on your quest."
Drako closed his eyes and began to chant in an ancient language, which made the arch glow brightly.
"Go now," Litia said, "Farewell."
The trio looked at each other and then disappeared through the arch and back into Axel's world.
"Adele, why can't I find you?"
"I cannot explain."
"Please try."
"I'm not where you think I am."
"And where would that be?"

In most states you have the right to change attorneys at any time in the process. Your outgoing attorney will likely be entitled to a fee for the work done to date. If this was a contingent fee case, the outgoing attorney will either have a lien on the legal fee (and thus share it with the new attorney), or could bill you hourly for the work done. See a local attorney to ask for the rules in your area.

I assume you mean a motor vehicle personal injury claim/suit where you are receiving medical benefits from PIP? You can always switch lawyers, but your first lawyer may be entitled to a lien out of the recovery for the time and value he/she put into the case. That is why on smaller cases it can be hard to find a new lawyer mid case. I don't have enough facts to know what the issues are or if the compensation value of the claim make it possible to get a new lawyer however. I recommend you meet with the lawyer, go over all your concerns. If you are not comfortable in your representation, you should at least consult with other lawyers. As I always say to people asking about lawyers, do not hire a lawyer based on a slick TV commercial. A fancy commercial has often has little to do with quality representation. People need a quality lawyer, not a volume lawyer. Good luck.

I would, however, ask you to consider why you are looking to switch attorneys. The process can take some time. While i agree with most of what has been posted, i suggest that you meet with your current attorney and discuss your concerns. You may find that the case is being handled properly. Otherwise, make sure you interview other attorneys so that you don't repeat any mistake.
If you find that there have been undue delays or a lack of diligence, you may be able to use that in your favor for having a "new" attorney attempt to "waive his/her (initial attorney's) lien.

Problems playing PS2 Classics downloaded from PSN

Hi there guys n gals. Interesting query for those who are more tech savvy than me (most all of you) I recently downloaded Odin Sphere from teh newly minte PS2 Classics section on the PSN, but to my dismay when I started the game, I get a funky video error like we used to do back in the analog video days when we got a wire crossed somewhere. Problem is I roll newschool with the HDMI cable connections, and no other content gives me trouble. I am one of the fortunate owners of the backwards compatible PS3, so I can even play my old physical copy PS1 and PS2 games just fine. I also have quite a few PS1 classics that I've downloaded from the PSN that also work quite hanily. No go on the PS2 classics though... Any thoughts, suggestions, recommendations? I called Sony Consumer Services, and although the young lady I spoke to was nice and seemed to genuinely want to help me out, she was at a loss as to why there should be any issues. If anyone else is having these or similar issues, let us all know in the forum.

I don't wanna mingle in this big contra- pro-Oro and Kabuto war, but I really have to say this:no harsh words about Kabuto. taking a look at this threads title (realizing somebody actually wondered) will make you see what I mean: Kabuto kicks ass quite good. please, *emoticonholdingupwhiteflag* spare Kabuto...

do you have like all-caps disease or something?

By the way, I dont have to chip my lot in with this discussion but i guess i will because im bored. OK, to answer this dumbass question thats been posed, I will give you an easy frame of non-speculatory evidence that has been pointed out many times in this thread. OROCHIMARU ADMITS THAT ITACHI IS STRONGER THAN HIM!!!! THE REASON HE GOES AFTER SASUKE FOR THE SHARINGAN IS BECAUSE ITACHI WOULD KILL HIM IF HE TRIED TO STEAL HIS PRECIOUS UCHIHA BODY!!! And by the way, now do you see how annoying all-caps are? Phew... Formal request to dranz, close this thread!

And do you think when he copied a jutsu he doesn't use it?Plus how come in the fight against Zabuza, Kakashi did not had any problems with water bunshin plus that dragon jutsu plus that damn huge water no jutsu?eh tell me that, do you think when Kakashi has no problems doing it right after copying the jutsu Itachi will have a problem?Its just that Sasuke has not much developed Sharingan so he needs to train to use a jutsu after he copied.
Accept the fact Itachi is stronger than Oro.

I think Kabuto has been working for Tsundae. Sure
He wants to learn more medical jutsus than he knows from her and she wanted to keep an eye on her old teammember. Ya that's the ticket! That's also what she is referring to in the latest manga when she says
Seriously though, they've pointed out what the words mean. Yet, if you mean will he become a stronger more prevailent character? Well I hope so. He's pretty cool and fun to watch. I'm not ready for him to die in any case.

Well, the thing about Kakashi is that I think he knew the jutsus before he used them. Explain to me how Kakashi can copy a jutsu and finish the seals BEFORE Zabuza if he doesn't know how to use it beforehand.
The example with Kagebunshin was just that...an example. I used that one because it is the jutsu that we know the most about. You want another one?
However, that's a pretty worst-case scenario. In avny event. I doubt he'd be able to simply use the technique right away like people seem to think he can.
And once again, simply because he CAN copy high-level jutsus doesn't mean he HAS.
His ability is solely dependent on the opponent using the jutsu in question. If he hasn't seen Death God Summoning, he can't use it.
If he hasn't seen the chakra-draining Earth Prison, he can't use it.

Dragon flame if thats so why does oro laugh at Kakashi? Kakashi has sharingan and is very famous for knowing a crap load of jutsu's yet Oro shows no sign of respect for him whatsoever but laughs at him in thinking kakashi is just an insect compare to him. If your theory is true he should at least think kakashi could "possibly" harm him.
As for whos stronger, well just look and analyse:
Itachi seems to be the main baddy of the series, very mysterious, sasuke brother who he has sworn to kill etc. Maybe he hasnt played as much as oro yet but hes story was introduced right from the very beggining, the brother sasuke has to kill. In mangas these kind of characters usually are stronger, not to mention hes appearing later and baddies who appear later in a series usually are stronger than the earlier bad guys. Not to mention oro admitted twice he cant beat itachi.
As for oro, the manga shows no signs of him being stronger. I dont believe the gap to be too big but seing as how the manga is trying to portray Itachi so much as this big baddass character..he probably is. Then again all these are just speculation but it dont hurt to put some thoughts into it.

Ace, you need to think a lot more deeply into this. i have 3 issues with your posts in this thread. im not tryin to sound condescending or anything though, so dont read it like that.
first with Itachi...you assume way too much. you assume that just because hes in contact with lots of other ninjas, that he copys and learns all their jutsus...we dont know that, and even if he does know them they may not be useful to him. Kakashi created Chidori as his original Jutsu, maybe Itachi spends his time making his own jutsus instead of copying other peoples...simply dont know. probably shouldnt assume anything though.
secondly...with zabuza...its possible to be an S-class criminal AND a jounin at the same time...they are not mutually exclusive...zabuza probably just reached jounin rank in the hidden mist before he went rogue and became a criminal.
third, this whole legendary ninja thing...jiraiya is a jounin, he happens to be such an elite jounin that for whatever reason, he is a legend among the current generation of leaf villagers. same with oro and tsunade, they were all jounins before they left the villiage, they just happen to be so exceptional that, when u combine that with the fact that they were trained by the 3rd hokage...thats probably how they achieved a legendary status...its not an official ranking or anything like that.

Personally I think we know way to little about many of the characters to say who's stronger than who. Sure we've seen some of them face off, Oro said he feared Itachi and Itachi didn't seem afraid at all of Jiraiya but it's all circumstancial. That's the reason there's no point in trying to compare two guys that never fought (and sometimes even if they have fought).

I know it was a example .[/spoiler]When you perform Rasengan you clearly see what happens how the chakra rotates and stuff, it just doesn't appear suddenly you know.So basicly Itachi can copy it easily, well i didn't say he would use it instantly you just keep pushing that to my face. Offcourse a very high Level jutsu like Rasengan can't used directly after copying it.You said in your early post *to use in future battles* remember that. Itachi can copy any jutsu and use it 1-2 day later on. Itachi is not Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi nor Kabuto he is a 17 years old dude who passed the Sannin and any Kage's. Plus he isn't a inexperienced punk who has problem's with his chakra rotation or whatsoever.

thats not obvious and easy
its not made clear at all throughout the whole series,
maybe two or three frames of the manga...
and anyway, that was a question, this is a fevered and stupid debate

And Nine Devil, it seems I misunderstood you. Sorry about that...
And why can't Itachi know more kinjutsu than Oro? There's no reason why not, I just can't see a convincing reason why he does.
