This is the Secret Santa knitting I did at work during my breaks. I finished it about a week ago but only just managed to get a photo. It's a great free pattern called Klein Scarf, a very simple four row repeat using nothing more than knit and purl stitches. The yarn is a favourite brand of mine, Shepherd's Wool by Stonehedge Fiber Mill from right here in (Northern) Michigan (an official US Winter Olympic supplier too!). It's worsted weight, the exact same type I used for my Rannoch Moor Cowl. I cast on 36 stitches (instead of 32) and it's 62" long.
That looks wonderful, great work.
It's beautiful and I really love the color. That'll brighten up a cold, dreary day.
Lovely stitch pattern, and such a rich, vibrant red! Great scarf. :inlove:
That's a really cool stitch; great work!
What a wonderful, soft scarf. It's beautifully knit and in such a warm, rich red. I love it!
The stitch pattern makes the scarf incredibly "bouncy", it's very nubby and warm. When it's rolled or folded up I reckon you could sit on it and it wouldn't squash down much! Just what you want for snowy 17F days! (-8C)
Just have to say again how much I love the idea of 'Secret Santa Knitting'! The scarf is a great color and I like the texture, amazing what a four row repeat can look like.
Oooh, this is just gorgeous!! I love that deep, rich red, too!
Really like the pattern and the rich red color.I downloaded the pattern and it calls for a DK weight, Shepard's Wool is actually a worsted weight. What size needles did you use and how wide did the 36 stitches turn out to be? Thinking of making one for a girlfriend who made me one of those pottery yarn bowls.
I used US8 needles, the 36 stitches came out to 6" across. The scarf actually end up reversible as the pattern on the back is just as nice as the one on the front.
Nice work! Great color, too. Shows off the pattern stitch very nicely!

This year's World Cup is drawing to a close. It has been a thoroughly enjoyable experience watching the matches. There is a lot to like about soccer, a lot of things peculiar only to soccer, aspects of the game that would not quite translate well into our everyday lives. Although, come to think of it, incorporating some soccer culture into our daily monotony might be a good idea.
Have you noticed that the really good players go by one name, names like Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar? It would be super cool if this happened at the office. "I'd like to introduce you to our national accounts manager. He goes by the name Jeff. Just Jeff." Account managers at other firms could quote Jeff stats by memory. "Jeff closed the Sampson account in three weeks, that's his sixth close this year, he's on pace to set a franchise record." Up and coming little account managers would all clamor to by official Jeff gear, and have Jeff sign their brief cases at conferences.
At the end of the match, it's not uncommon to see soccer players trade jerseys. Imagine, after your next staff meeting, if everyone popped off their shirts and handed it to the person they think really performed well. Jane from accounting rips off her shirt and hands it to Tom, "Here you go, man. Outstanding job on those third quarter revenue projections, bro!" OK, it might be a bit of an H.R. nightmare, but highly entertaining nonetheless.
One of the more adorable aspects of soccer is the parade of players before a match, each one holding the hand of a giddy child, wearing a super cute jersey, all doe-eyed and excited to be so close to the legends of the game. This could translate over to the Supreme Court. Clearly, there are two teams on the court: liberal and conservative. Before each case is heard, the justices, broken into their respective teams, could parade out. Instead of kids, though, each justice could be holding the hand of a third year law student, all doe-eyed and excited, wearing a tiny black robe with names like Sotomayor or Scalia emblazoned on the back.
Of course, the biggest peculiarity, the one soccer fans, and soccer detractors, could all live without, is the flop. An otherwise innocent, innocuous little bump sends a player to the grass in agony. So much agony that you would swear it wasn't just the player that was hurt, but his ancestors that came before him suddenly all broke their femurs simultaneously and cried out in unison from the great beyond. As ridiculous as the flop is, I suppose it could have real life applications when dealing with an angry spouse.
Fellas, the next time you and your wife are in a heated argument, when you're all out of excuses and alibis, in the middle of a sentence, just lean in and brush her shoulder with yours. At that exact moment, crash to the kitchen floor like you were shot, stabbed, drawn, and quartered. As you lay there writhing and screaming, and your wife stands over you confused, maybe an official will come sprinting in a give her a yellow card. See, she will have to settle down or risk getting another card. She gets another yellow, the official gives her a red card, and she's out of the game. Either way, you live to be a jerk another day. Until she checks the replay, that is.
Maybe these things will integrate slowly. I'm ready to go by one name. The shirt thing, better do some sit-ups, I guess.

This hospital consolidates WellSpan's rehabilitation and orthopedic programs into a new, freestanding 142,000 sq. ft. building on the Apple Hill campus, bringing together specialists from both disciplines in one location. Staff can easily track those patients who transition from one area to the other. Because the orthopedic and rehabilitation disciplines are related, the programs can share certain spaces, creating a specialty facility that is very operationally efficient.
With large patient rooms with ample space for patient mobility and family accommodations and large accessible toilets with sliding doors, the new facility elevates the standard of care for a rehabilitation hospital with a state of the art environment for healing.
This project creates 48 rehabilitation beds and 25 orthopedic beds, as well as a large therapy gym shared by both programs. On the first floor, a two story concourse, warmly illuminated by clerestory lighting, links the main entrance with the visitors' elevators and the dining room. Also on the first floor is a 4 OR orthopaedic surgical suite, which includes peri-operative space to support 4 additional ORs in the future. Imaging, Administration, Dietary, Sterile Processing, Materials Management, and support spaces are included as well.

In addition to putting his two cents into the cause, B.o.B. challenged others to meet his donation.

The maternal monster in 'Suburban Mayhem'
Starrs, D. Bruno (2006) The maternal monster in 'Suburban Mayhem'. Metro Magazine, pp. 22-24.
|PDF (40kB)
In most mainstream horror films the woman is depicted as the victim, frequently punished for her unrestrained libido, because, according to psychoanalytic theory, at the heart of horror lies a patriarchal fear of female sexuality. In accordance with this misogynism, it is generally believed that the horror genre depicts female sexuality 'as monstrous, disturbing, and in need of repression.' Testing the limits of the horror genre is Paul Goldman's 'Suburban Mayhem' (2006), a recent Australian film that portrays a young woman as the monster, tending towards a disturbing representation of a malevolently self-centred individual characterized by abjection and transgression.

Canon's triple-digit range of advanced entry-level digital SLRs has come a long way since the 6.3-megapixel 300D exploded onto the market in 2003, ushering in the era of the sub-£1000 consumer DSLR. Since then, every new model introduced to the range has seen an increase in overall resolution, along with ever more advanced processing engines.
In many ways, the 600D is the first model in the series to buck this trend. While the latest model does undoubtedly add to the strengths of its predecessor with a number of hardware upgrades, new features and design tweaks, the core specification remains largely unchanged from that of the 550D it supersedes, but not altogether replaces.
Indeed, Canon has already confirmed that the 550D will remain in the line-up for the time being, essentially offering consumers the option of a stripped-down 600D for less money.
Looking more closely at those aforementioned specs, the 600D is built around an 18-megapixel, APS-C sized CMOS sensor and the same Canon DIGIC 4 processor as the 550D. Sensitivity remains pegged at a useful, if not class-leading, ISO 100-6400 with ISO 12,800 available in expanded mode.
The similarities between it and the 550D don't end there, either. The 600D's nine-point autofocus module and 63-zone metering system also remain unchanged from the 550D, as does the maximum continuous shooting rate of 3.7fps.
So, what's new then? Well, the most obvious upgrade over the 550D is the addition of a high-resolution, tilt-and-swivel LCD monitor that extends 180 degrees out from the camera body and swivels 270 degrees on its hinge.
This flexible arrangement makes it especially useful for shooting from high or low angles, or to compose self-portraits with. And of course, you can choose to fold the screen back in towards the camera body for extra protection when it's not in use.
While the 600D's standard aspect ratio when through the viewfinder remains at 3:2, using the camera in live view mode now offers a choice of alternative aspects – 4:3, 16:9 and 1:1 – that can be used when recording either still images or movies. Again, this is something that the 550D didn't offer.
Unlike its predecessor, the 600D also offers a number of Creative Filter Effects that can be applied to Raw and JPEG files post-capture. Accessed via the Quick menu button while the camera is in playback mode, the effects include: Toy Camera, Soft Focus, Miniature, Grainy Black and White and Fish Eye. Within the same editing menu you'll also find options to protect, rotate, rate and resize your images.
As might be expected the results obtained by these digital filters are a bit basic compared to what can be done using proper image-editing software. We'd also have to say that some competitor models (we're thinking primarily of the Pentax K-r here) offer a greater range of digital filter options, along with more scope to fine-tune your settings. Nonetheless, they're a useful addition for if you're caught short without your normal editing software to hand.
One other notable new feature, inherited from the 7D and 60D but absent on the 550D, is the ability to use the pop-up flash as a wireless commander unit to trigger off-camera flashguns with. This opens up all kinds of creative fun for off-camera lighting enthusiasts and is good to see in an advanced entry-level model like this.

I see you mention the Sony A580. Do you have any plans to review this model?
Available for between £150 and £200 less than the 600d, it is a very tempting proposition and it offers arguably better image quality, has class leading live view and in-body stabilisation.
The Canon D60 is a decent option for existing Canon DSLR users to upgrade to, but it is seriously falling behind the other competitors at the inter-changeable lens camera markets; as we can see that the latest Nikon D5100 and Nikon D7000 can both can outperform most of the Canon cameras in term of ISO performance, color depth, and dynamic range.
According to the DXO site, even Sony's A580 can outperform the Canon D60.
Canon presumes their customers will be easily satisfied with modest new features and derelict efforts to increase camera performances; their marketing strategy had clearly misjudged their opponents' abilities to make better cameras at a lower price.

Mullerian agenesis:
Female pseudohermaphroditism patients vulva is normal, female body, breasts, armpits feminine, double uterine malformations, tubal developmental somewhat less normal ovary; well as other malformations, such as 34% of patients with renal malformations, 12% associated with skeletal deformities ; There is often accompanied by Klipple-Feil syndrome.
What Causes Female Pseudohermaphroditism
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia: it is the cause of female pseudohermaphroditism most common factor, the total is an autosomal recessive familial disease, the cause of female pseudohermaphroditism is a hydrogenation can produce abnormal adrenal steroids pine lack in turn cause the secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), corresponding prompted adrenal hyperplasia and intermediate metabolites excessive accumulation of disease. Disease because synthetic barriers and lack of several key enzymes, leading to symptoms, signs and abnormal laboratory tests, such as lack of mineralocorticoid or too much, the involvement of women masculine or sexually naive involvement incomplete masculine men (male pseudohermaphroditism) performance.
The aromatase lack: it is the cause of the CYP19 gene mutation. Embryonic enzyme deficiency leads to female pseudohermaphroditism. It is reported 2 cases of 46, XX babies born clitoral hypertrophy and after labial fusion. One example, estrogen is very low in the maternal blood and urine, the blood androgen levels are high. Other patients found unexplained masculine beginning until the age of 14, learned that the aromatase enzyme deficiency, she has more obvious masculine gonadotropin and androgen levels in the blood, high and low levels of estrogen.
Mother of androgen and progesterone: the following two points:
(1) the influence of drugs: the mother during pregnancy to prevent miscarriage progesterone complex, especially the first three months of pregnancy, while the androgenic effects of this drug will cause children masculine, masculine far less congenital adrenal hyperplasia. This masculine often self-limiting and gradually disappear after birth.
(2) endogenous factors: by the mother during pregnancy, the cause of female pseudohermaphroditism tumors derived from the secretion of production of androgen (such as adrenal tumors, ovarian tumors, male cell tumors, etc.), the emergence of the masculine phenomenon. The baby Changbiaoxianwei to different degrees of hypertrophy of the clitoris, labia fusion. Similarly, masculine also mentioned earlier is self-limiting.
4 Mullerian agenesis: it mainly for vaginal congenital missing, the disease can be found in the autosomal translocation of chromosomes 12q and 14q. The incidence rate of 1/5000 to 1/20000, is second only to the reasons of the gonadal dysgenesis cause primary amenorrhea, the patient's karyotype 46, XX. Many patients and found that the disease precisely because of puberty amenorrhea.
Tests and Diagnosis for Female Pseudohermaphroditism
Diagnostic tests:
1. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
1) hormone level test: 21 - hydroxylase laboratory tests can be found in the blood of 17 - hydroxyprogesterone increased, blood cortisol levels are usually lower in salt loss crisis patients. However, in some cases, 17 - hydroxyprogesterone not like the typical disease is so high, and sometimes even normal female pseudohermaphroditism diagnosis can be used the intravenous injection 0.25mgACTH (provocation test) can be measured after 60 minutes to a more significant increase in value. Amniotic fluid of 17 - hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione test applies to prenatal testing.
11β-hydroxylase deficiency patients, Blood 11 - deoxy corticosterone and 11 - deoxy cortisol significantly increased, another blood renin activity and aldosterone is suppressed.
3β-alcohol dehydrogenase deficient patients blood 17 - hydroxy pregnenolone ketone significantly elevated, and △ the pigsty alcohol (pregnenolone .17 - hydroxy pregnenolone ketone, the deoxy male Sterone) and A4 class steroid (progesterone, 17 - hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione) ratio in the blood and urine with a clear diagnosis.
2) Other testing methods: As mentioned before, the use of molecular DNA technology is a sign of the development of science and technology. Cause a variety of diseases associated mutations understanding this application become possible combination hormone level test and Hl. A gene can make more rapid, accurate diagnosis. DNA analysis of chorionic villus cells, can also be used for prenatal diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
Mullerian agenesis:
Genital examination revealed vaginal agenesis, CT, B ultrasound, intravenous pyelography examination can be found associated with deformity.
Differential diagnosis:
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia: When the suspected patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to masculine masculine adrenocortical tumors can also cause, then, must be excluded. Laboratory and auxiliary female pseudohermaphroditism check will be the main means. Use hydrocortisone can quickly reduce the blood of patients with congenital adrenal deoxy DHEA ketosteroid urinary 17 - ketosteroid and other elevated steroid levels, adrenal cortical tumor will not happen. CT, B ultrasound and magnetic resonance laboratory tests to exclude congenital adrenal hyperplasia, would be very useful to the diagnosis of the corresponding adrenal tumors.
Male pseudohermaphroditism 3β-alcohol dehydrogenase deficiency caused malformations easily and female pseudohermaphroditism mixed. The karyotype check will be very critical, and can do some angiography clear whether the Mullerian structures to identify.
Treatments of Female Pseudohermaphroditism
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia:
The treatment of the basic principle is to supplement the lack of cortisol, suppression of ACTH secretion, thereby inhibiting adrenal hypertrophy, and reduce excessive androgen secretion and accumulation reduce masculine characteristics. Salts lost crisis may be appropriate to increase the dose, plus electrolyte and saline. Surgical correction of the external genitalia, raising gender, female pseudohermaphroditism treatment.
Hormone therapy is key, because it can make a part of the male and female patients the ability to obtain fertility. Patients with glucocorticoid deficiency, with the amount of the corresponding hormone can prevent cortisol caused by the lack of after-effects, stop quickly masculine to prevent premature body growth and epiphyseal fusion, alleviate the symptoms of high blood pressure, to change menstrual loss withered female secondary sexual characteristics of normal development. Has been reported on prenatal risk factors and have confirmed that the 21 - hydroxylase deficiency in children given dexamethasone treatment, appropriate to add the appropriate hormone. To monitor the level of 17 - hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione and other process with hormone. Glucocorticoid treatment for more than 50 years of history, but the best medication mode still not been able to determine, the treatment of female pseudohermaphroditism such as a day with several time whether morning or evening dose bigger. Now, some people try to adrenalectomy plus glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid treatment of 21 - hydroxylase deficiency and 11β-hydroxylase patient.
Aromatase deficiency: Some scholars believe that given a small dose of estradiol for the treatment before puberty involvement of women, estrogen levels, according to the corresponding age.

I hear water running through the pipes, but...
I can hear water running through pipes from the main, but I have no valves on and the water heater is full. this has been occurring several times a day for a few days now. I've noticed it before, usually in the early morning, but throughout the day doesn't make any sense. I can trace the sound to the closet with the water heater, but I can turn off the valves on the heater and the sound will continue.
Are the neighbors using my water? That would explain my high water bills while I'm away...
If you're shutting off the water at the main and your water heater is still filling, you're not getting the water shut off. That could mean that the valve isn't seating fully.
I doubt the neighbors have the capacity (plumbing wise) to access your water supply, but stranger things have happened.
Try this. Shut off the main. Hook a hose to the water heater and drain it down a few gallons. Some water will run into it from the lines, but if it gets a steady supply of water your main shutoff is shot.
Shut off the water to your whole house and see if the neighbors complain.
More than likely,,,your water is sneaking out thru a BAD toilet. FIRST take the lid off and look to see the stool isnt filling up past the overflow tube,,,fill valve NOT shutting off. Then turn water OFF for 4-8 hours and see how long it takes for the water to 'seep' out of the back tank..... a BAD leak it will be gone in an hour or less,,,a slight drip may take all day. Take that amount times 24/7/365 and SEE how much water is just being 'wasted'. Same with even a 'slight' drip from a faucet,,,measure and times to years waste of water. Even when water was cheap I had a stool you would swear was just fine,,,waste 300-500 dollars a MONTH of water.(they can be cracked in the bottom and NOT be noisey doing it!!!)
Dont shoot the neighbors just yet!!!
If you're not hearing water running in any other room in the house (and nothing's pouring down the walls, I assume :thumbup:), do you by any chance have an in-ground sprinkler system?
Seriously though, is that a regional thing?? I've always called it the tank.
Is your water meter showing use when you have everything off and you hear the noise?
Do you have a water softener? Sometimes the valves on a water softener fail.
I'm in a private house, 2 bath, the main runs from the meter (next to the neighbors' meter), thru the front yard to the front spigeot/shutoff valve, into the main bath, under the master bedroom, into the master bath, and thru the rest of the house/kitchen/heater/laundry closet.
I didn't think about a leaky toilet, but I can hear the water come on/shut off when sitting on the main toilet. I don't hear the other toilet flush itself or fill when I'm in the master.
Tanks are fine from what I can tell...beside being half-functional low-flush. (Maybe the "stool" thing previously mentioned...ewwww! Flush again!) :laughing:
You can laugh all ya want,,,it maybe is a "HERE" thing. The whole darn fixture is called a 'stool', toilet,throne, toiddy, crapper, ,,,take your pick!!! I WASNT refering to any left over waste in that useage,,,so change the word to YOUR word for the WHOLE fixture. I dunt care,,but YOU care when all your water is running thru it,,,wastefully!!! IF you can hear water running,,,it is running someplace.
I was refering to the overflow in the TANK part,,is there another over flow in any 'throne'???
If those flappers in the TANK are old at ALL replace them anyway,,,and make sure there isnt a track or scum(defined built up clean water deposits) build up,, on the LIP where it is supposed to seat!!
Yeah - the sewage portion of the bill has me miffed. I don't use that much water, even with a pool, and it reflects on the bill that way too. At first, I was thinking the sound was the sewer noise traveling up the drain (which could be some of the noise I am hearing). The running water still has me stumped. The flappers on the toilets are still in good condition and I can't see anything else wrong with the toilets.
I just thought of something - the water line to the swamp cooler. I didn't use it this year, because it's in horrible shape and I'm almost positive I shut everything off, but that could be it...
The thing to do is to shut off everything in the house. Go look at the meter and see if it is using water. Don't use water for as long as you can and then recheck the reading and see if there has been any water flowing.
Also compare you water usage with others. The water company can do this for you in most cases.
So this morning at about the same time I heard it again. I'm on vacation this week and I was up early with a bit of a tummy bug. Turned the main off, but there was still some residual noise (sewer?). Then the neighbor's freeloading daughter went to work looking like an angry drenched dog. I haven't heard the noise since, even after I turned the main back on.
I think I will shut off the water later on tonight after the wife gets off the late shift. Turns out one of the son-in-laws of the neighbor did a bunch of work for her and for the previous owner of my house (that I am still finding and fixing, like he never had the "Midas Touch"). Maybe he tapped into my lines when he built the addition onto her garage. He built her storage sheds over my property line, so why not use my water and sewer?
<He built her storage sheds over my property line, so why not use my water and sewer?>
Have you ever heard of the rights of easement? In my state, if a neighbor infringes on the property of another and this infringement is 20 years or more, then it cannot be removed by the offended property owner. Better check with an attorney to see where you stand. I once stopped a contractor who was going to drill a hole into my concrete patio for a metal fence post for my next door neighbor. we have row homes and his home sets back about 4 feet from mine.
The neighbor got mad at me as he did not understand "rights of easement". So the contractor secured the fence to the 4 foot side of my wall. An easement to do this was created by the builder of the homes on my block as there is also a large overhang attach to this wall (installed by the builder) that benefits the neighbor by protecting his entryway.
However, I hope you get this water problem solved. If your neighbor's contractor had tapped into your feed line then I believe even if its before the water meter, then it still may be illegal.
This is a very interesting thread. I would be surprised (and shocked) if it turns out to be your neighbor stealing your water, but I have heard of this before. It usually happens in apartments/condos though, not single family homes.
Take a look around your house, the garage, back yard. See if you can find any mysterious pipes going out of the house.
If you think you have water theft, you should call a master plumber to have a look. If he finds it, then you should call the police!
Have you considered other appliances that may be using water... As you mentioned the swamp cooler, other ideas:
fridge with Ice Cube maker / water
Water Filter system (RO system)
auto fill for a hot tub or pool or fountain
Just about any of these could malfunction and start dumping water out. The RO filter system dumps water on a regular basis, and that is normal.
Good Luck

Look at their eyes when you shake their hands. Never, never hug them. That's reserved for the family only. When you are accepted as their friends and go to their homes, the host will serve fine liquor or wine (if they drink) after a meal or their afternoon sweet with coffee or tea.
How do I know? I have more German than American friends.
Yes, this is pretty spot-on. Also, don't spill the remainder of the coffee that you didn't drink out the car window. Lol.

What are we all doing? Why are we sitting on our sofa's, computer chairs, love-seats, or any of the rest when there is a rat among us? While a perverted soul lurks around the corner and threatens to spoil our children's minds with his disgusting sexist viewpoints and horrible misogynistic ways and attempts to bring his filth to light and destroy the very foundation of our clean-hearted, wholesome lifestyle! To hell with that! Everybody grab a torch, it's been too long since we had a good old fashioned lynch mob, roaming through the streets like a rabid pack of dogs, looking to attack and destroy anybody with even the slightest view-point that differs from our own! We are the difference makers and we will bring to light the subjects that people oh so conveniently slide under the rug... Oh, wait, people talk about it all the time? Well, screw them too!
In recent days, the disgusting and depraved ways of Hideo Kojima has been brought to light. Not from things he has said, but things he has created! Now, I'm sure you have all heard of the current predicament that that chauvinistic pig has put himself in after his most recent reveal of his character "Quiet". Needless to say, the son of a bitch should be hung for what he thinks of this innocent girl that he created and that nobody knows the back story of!
She is seen in his images dressing in a bikini top while holding a sniper rifle! Outrageous! In no fathomable way possible can our little minds think of anyway possible that this seemingly middle-eastern woman could possibly be wearing this outfit. I mean, unless you take into effect that she may be rebelling against the very culture she grew up in that may have even removed her tongue for speaking out of place... No! Even if that were the case, that doesn't excuse them from pervading our televisions with her scanty clothing and absurd choice of attire. Even if it's for the oppression of women, it's still misogynistic! No matter the reason behind said clothing, it's inexcusable!
So, with that being said, I would now like to call to arms all of our rational mob and bring our eyes of hatred toward another person involved with this very same character, and say that no body is safe!
Stephanie Joosten, an actress with a dutch background who portrays that disgustingly inappropriate character we all know as "Quiet"(even saying the name fills me with disgust) recently spoke out and said knowing what she knows about the character of Quiet, she feels the clothing is appropriate. Either she has been drugged by the devil himself "Kojima" or she has thrown her hat in with him and now wants to ruin what so many woman have fought for for so long! By sticking by her own work and not trashing it with the rest of us, she has only shown her weakness and lack of caring for women's rights! So, yes if you were wondering, she is a Misogynist, because she clearly hates women and supports Kojima! How dare that beautiful girl come out and say that legendary designer Kojima has a reasonable back story for Quiet! That's impossible! So yes, we shall bring her down in ashes as well my fellow people!
Unless something is done, we will never see movement as a culture or even as a congregated people! No longer shall we tip the lines of racy and classy! No longer shall we use story and reasoning to define certain things as a people. Unless we start all abiding by the same dress code and like mindsets that involve us all having the same exact opinions, we shall never truly be free. Until, there is no longer gender differences and there is pure unadulterated equality, then we shall NEVER BE FREE! And, lucky for you, I as your trusty leader, have ways of doing this.
No longer will it be acceptable for any of us to where anything revealing skin, cleavage, arms, or muscles. We shall where nothing but parkas or baggy sweaters at all times. This way, we will never be able to see ones physical attributes, or anything of the sort. As for pants, women will no longer be allowed to where yoga pants, formfitting jeans or anything of the sort, nor shall they wear dresses, or skirts. We shall all as a people where either loose fitting khakis or loose fitting khaki shorts. I know this seems a bit extreme, but it's for the best.
No longer are we allowed to sexualize anything in any form of media. Be it comedy, art, movies, books, comics, plays, video-games anything. Also, this is also in effect in person. No more funny sexual innuendos or jokes, no more dancing with the other gender or ones own in any form of sexuality. No more making eye contact with another while we walk down the street, this way no one will ever get the wrong impression.
Food will be distributed weekly, and it will only be fatty and greasy foods, because... well, this one's just obviously now, isn't it.
Doughnut burger? Sounds good to me.
What I call for, in the most simple way possible is that we as a people end this absurdity! No longer shall we have princesses locked in castles, or men who are shirtless fighting in battle while there loved one waits at home! It must all come to a stop! And if not, then we have failed as a people, as a society, as a country, as humans in general. And, I currently have only one idea in where we shall begin our rise to power, and that is one man.
Hideo Kojima
We shall take him and drag him through the streets! And, as we snatch his final breath from him, we will be comforted in the fact that with destroying one man, we as a people have grown. We as a people have seen the light.
That we as a people!
Are free.

A $787-billion stimulus. Liabilities of $356 billion for the TARP bailout on the federal government's balance sheet. And that's in addition to other unfunded liabilities from federal entitlements like ObamaCare, Medicare, and Social Security.
But that doesn't mean the U.S. is heading down the path toward socialism because they were one-time expenditures, according to CNBC senior economics reporter Steve Liesman.
On CNBC's "Squawk Box" April 29, as jobless claims for the week was being released on the floor of the CME Group in Chicago, co-host Joe Kernen asked for Liesman's opinion.
Specifically, Kernen wanted to know if the U.S. could learn anything from Europe about economic policy and how it relates to unemployment. That prompted Liesman to defend current economic policies under Obama and the Democratic-controlled Congress:
KERNEN: You can't glean anything from what happens in Europe?
LIESMAN: You know, I would say Joe, for the people that suggest this country is socialist, they should look at -
KERNEN: No, no - I didn't say that, Steve. Don't put up a straw man. I'm saying you look at Europe and you look at how, what employment benefits are over there and you look at the consistently high unemployment rate -
LIESMAN: I don't think our benefits are anywhere close to those benefits.
KERNEN: I didn't say they were. I'm just saying that if it's true to some extent, that if you have 80 percent or 90 percent of what would you make as a worker - that maybe you don't look quite as hard.
According to Liesman, the nation's spending is not on par with nations that are identifiably socialist. He explained government spending as a portion of gross domestic product is nowhere near what it is in some European countries.
"I just don't think we're on that curve," Liesman said. "I think when you look at nations that spend - 50 percent of all the spending is government spending and here in the United States we're having a huge debate. People think we're going socialist because we're going from 21 to 25 percent or whatever."
That fired up CME Group reporter Rick Santelli who explained, it's not so much the current economic data as it relates to socialist nations or European nations, but the growth of government that leads people to worry about socialism.
"Hold on, guys. You know what? When we talk about the economy, gentlemen, we always talk about the second derivative - always," Santelli said. "Whether you are talking about inflation, about how the economy is making a comeback even though GDP levels aren't back to where they were - second derivative. So the second derivative is much closer in an expedient way we're getting toward all of these European numbers, let's talk the common ground there and keep it consistent."
He continued to explain it wasn't that where we are now as it relates to European nations, but we're much closer than we were in the past.
"We may not be up to European levels on unemployment or taxation or how many people the government indirectly pays like in Britain," Santelli said. "It was in the Journal today, but the rate of change of where we were 10 years ago and where we're going has got Europe written all over it."
But according to Liesman, it wasn't fair to suggest that recent policies like stimulus and TARP would be the norm in the future, so deficits and spending would not necessarily rise to rates of European nations:
LIESMAN: The question is whether it is right to extrapolate the recent growth in government spending into the future -
SANTELLI: Of course it is. If your wife goes and spent 10 grand today you don't count that in your budget for next year?
LIESMAN: No, but if my wife went out and got a new kitchen for us and spent $30,000 on the new kitchen, should I extrapolate that in spending for the next 10 years? That's my point.
SANTELLI: No, but you need to extrapolate a way to pay for it don't you?
LIESMAN: You're absolutely right and that's the deficit.
SANTELLI: But that's the key.
However, Santelli argued that current entitlement obligations (including the recent passage of Obamacare) had been left out of the equation:
LIESMAN: That goes to the total debt but the deficit, Rick, the year-to-year change is the question I think that markets really focus on and what will be the total demand of government debt out there and I don't think that's $780 billion stimulus is going to be repeated. I don't think the TARP costs are going to be repeated.
SANTELLI: I don't think so either.
LIESMAN: Are you being sarcastic? You think we're going to continue using that kind of money on stimulus? I don't think so.
SANTELLI: No. But do you have to forget the stimulus but you have new programs that are going to add a boat load of dough into the equation.
LIESMAN: That's a legitimate question and concern. I don't know that you can extrapolate the recent growth -
SANTELLI: We're on the same page, we're on the same page.
According to Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., ObamaCare legislation "has $2 trillion in higher taxes, doubles the debt in five years, triples the debt in 10 years." He also predicted on CNBC that the U.S. would have a top marginal tax rate of 88 percent in 30 years, based on Congressional Budget Office data - suggesting that it may not be socialism now, but certainly could be someday.

Fantastic event, congratulations all round,
As for the fights, Whiteford damn near had me in tears with his emotional acceptance of the belt. What a massive win that is for him.
Turner fought very smart after being shocked a wee bit by Adam Stevenson's great start. Adam was excellent and showed he can hang with the very best.
Ryan McShane v Peter McCafferty was one of the nest fight I've ever seen, at any level.
Delighted for Graham Armstrong, really wanted to see him win.

Awesome event, loads of epic fights.
McCafferty vs McShane was incredible, huge props to both those guys. One of the best fights I've seen.
Donald was impressive, lovely right hand. Taylor awesome too, completely dominated Mendoza from start to finish. And his thighs give me the fear.
Delighted for Whiteford, epic win. No idea how Svensson or the Swedes can complain about that stoppage, the dude looked like he was trying to escape the cage. Even if that continues, Svensson wasn't looking to improve position at all, just sat against the cage getting battered. Whiteford for the UFC now...Great record, winning streak, victory over one of Europe's best/most-high profile featherweights, and he's a wee bit insane. Stop feeding Aldo mugs like Edgar and lets see how he deals with The Hammer.
Turner vs Stevenson was a good brawl. Great gameplan from Turner against the cage, well done to Adam for giving him a right good scare in that first round.
Not missed anyone intentionally, just what stood out off the top of my head. Well done to Chris, Hessam, Rich, Rob, etc on a great show.
My predictions were horseshit! But I
Guess that's why we watch! Im glad I was wrong cause it was a good night for the scots. Shame handeley won, don't like to see guys that miss weight win their fights.
Fuck no-gi
McCafferty v McShane was definitely one of the best fights I have ever seen, and probably the best fight I will ever see in person.
Thanks to Rob McCrum and the rest of the vision crew for having me on. Was a great show to be on, really enjoyed myself
Maybe the worst 2-0 MMA fighter in history. @jimbojitsusbg granitecitygrappling.com
Cracking event and super impressed with all of the vision team, totally professional from start to finish
The venue rocked and had some nice little production touches
My face is fucking killing though and that little bit on the front of my nose is kind of pushed over to one side
Awesome night! Rich and Chris organised a great show last night. The production was great and the delays minimal. And some of the fights were crazy!
McCafferty McShane was def the fight of the night, props to both guys. Whiteford Svennson was over quick but definitely agree with the refs decision, Svennson wasn't going anywhere, it was a bit shit though, just walking out. Whiteford's speech at the end and most of the Dinky team in the cage crying was pretty emotional/awesome.
Armstrong is a strange one though, he's definitely got skills, he's beaten some good guys and he always looks in shape, but, how does he (just my opinion) make fights look so boring? I'm not having a go, he's one of the top guys in Scotland at his weight for sure, and he gets the job done but his fights just look boring. Its maybe his style, controlling guys, or a gameplan I don't know, but he got the win with a good finish over a good guy from a good gym, congrats.
Christopher Svennson is definitely a douchebag, why did he hold the choke on for so long when the guy was quite obviously tapping and Doolan was quite obviously calling the fight. Did the guy end up getting choked out unconscious? Looked like it. He should get fined a % of his purse because it was totally uncalled for and completely unnecessary.
Rob and James did a great job reffing, agreed with all their stoppages and decisions. The slow motion replays on the big screens in-between rounds was a nice surprise, keeps the spectators entertained. The only thing I could think of that would of been good was just to have a timer going during the rounds on the big screens as well.
Great fights, great atmosphere, great night.
An unintuitive consequence of conditional probability.
Awesome show , cheers to Vision guys and all the fighters.

Master bedoom – Bernhard Wilhelm Scarf, collage by Penny Slinger, poster by Tadanaori Yokoo, painting by Chris Johanson, print by Misha Hollenbach. All photos here by me (Lucy Feagins).
Shoe rack. Awesome shoes. Chris Johanson and Misha Hollenbach print.
That is the actual view from Shauna and Misha's bedroom. I kid you not.
It was with a certain level of trepidation that I photographed the insanely cool home / workspace of Shauna Toohey and Misha Hollenbach (aka Perks and Mini) a few weeks ago, because I am very conscious that many of you will already have seen this house earlier this year on The Selby!! Agh! Oh well. Couldn't possibly compete with the Selbs, but brand new shots have gotta count for something, I hope!? (do pop over and check out The Selby pics for the gorgeous shots of 2 yr old Odette though!)
Shauna and Misha originally bought this amazing 3-storey building in Cremorne as an empty shell just over 5 years ago, and commissioned Melbourne architect Kerstin Thompson to fitout the interior. 'She did an amazing job!' say Shauna – 'we have a small tatami area which opens onto a balcony…..amazing!'. The result is an incredible multi-purpose space with three distinctly separate zones – the lower level is PAM warehousing / Misha's art studio, middle level is PAM head office, and the top level (with the BEST views) is Shauna and Misha's 1.5 bedroom apartment – the .5 is Odette's bedroom!
OK so clearly, pictures speak a lot louder than words – and you don't need me to tell you how freaking amazing this house is! SO SO AMAZING! The versatile layout of the space and those incredible views really make it unlike any home I've ever photographed. But as is so often the case, what really makes this home super special is Shauna and Misha's amazing collection of stuff. I have truly never seen such cool stuff. It's like a trend forecasting meets home decoration. Seriously.
Shauna's favourite thing in the whole house is their growing art collection. Pieces by Claes Oldenburg, EYE Yamantaka, Chris Johanson, Rita Ackermann, and Jake Walker are prized possessions. There's also a new collaborative painting by between Odette (2) and Shauna (pictured below) – which of course is Misha's favourite….!
Shauna also loves the eclectic, creative neighbourhood – Cremorne is that small pocket squished between Church st, Richmond and Punt rd, where boutique industry meets tiny workers' cottages, and little coffee shops are scattered all over the place to service all the buzzing businesses popping up in the area. Shauna also recommends some fab new eating spots which are closeby – Union Dining, Noir, and Demitris Feast, next time you're in the area!
Shauna and Misha do have a very special reason to share their amazing pad with us today… after 5 years here, this creative little family have outgrown their much-loved space, and are looking to lease it out! If you or someone you know is looking for a unique home / creative workspace combo, email Shauna soon! A home like this really deserves someone special. And ultra cool :)
Massive thanks to Shauna T for sharing her home with us! Also big thanks to the very lovely Beci Orpin for the tip-off. I do love a good tip-off.

- Release Date 2012-06-28
- Label SCI+TEC
- Catalog TEC2LP
Carlo Lio lines up his inaugural compilation, and in doing so extends SCI+TECs burgeoning Past, Present, Future series with a selection of tracks exclusively from the labels vaults.Following label head Dubfires initial installment, Carlo Lio has been given free-rein to utilize anything from the cavernous SCI+TEC catalogue in any way he sees fit. In keeping with the labels philosophy much of the content has been re-worked especially for the mix. The results are far beyond impressive.Canadian sensation Carlo Lio is riding high on a wave crest following a number of years of much lauded output. Through pushing a distinct sound that has been expertly nurtured by the omnipotent SCI+TEC, Carlos productions have become a staple in the record boxes of the worlds leading artists. This coupled with his complex and innovative mixing style has earned him fans the world over. These creative facets have been harnessed into a release that clearly defines the Carlo Lio Experience in 2012.Rather than serving a generic track by track mix, Carlo has been sure to re-interpret the tracks so they are representative of his signature sound. The aim has been for the mix to effectively bleed his production style, his transition style, and ultimately his groove. Tracks that would not typically be found in Carlo Lio mix have be cut up and re-worked to fit his aural output. Part 1s focus is the Past of SCI+TEC, and the tone is set by Kadens remix of Squillaces tech-house smash One Lobster Please. The mix gives a fantastic journey through the various high points of the label, with Carlos approach evident in the dual use of Dubfires Rabid before Luca Bacchettis remix of Crazy Madness adds a playful element to the mix.Part 2 then deals with the present sound of the label, whilst also nodding towards the future. Notable highlights are crowd favourite Paul Ritchs Common Sense with its brilliantly worked sample. The breadth of SCI+TEC is aptly demonstrated here with Nick Curlys remix of Zoo Brazils Slob and its eerie topline sit effortlessly with SHDWPLAYs Subconscious.
