RSA Key Generation with Verifiable Randomness

Abstract: We consider the problem of proving that a user has selected and correctly employed a truly random seed in the generation of her RSA key pair. This task is related to the problem of key validation, the process whereby a user proves to another party that her key pair has been generated securely. The aim of key validation is to persuade the verifying party that the user has not intentionally weakened or reused her key or unintentionally made use of bad software. Previous approaches to this problem have been ad hoc, aiming to prove that a private key is secure against specific types of attacks, e.g., that an RSA modulus is resistant to elliptic-curve-based factoring attacks. This approach results in a rather unsatisfying laundry list of security tests for keys.
We propose a new approach that we refer to as key generation with verifiable randomness (KEGVER). Our aim is to show in zero knowledge that a private key has been generated at random according to a prescribed process, and is therefore likely to benefit from the full strength of the underlying cryptosystem. Our proposal may be viewed as a kind of distributed key generation protocol involving the user and verifying party. Because the resulting private key is held solely by the user, however, we are able to propose a protocol much more practical than conventional distributed key generation. We focus here on a KEGVER protocol for RSA key generation.

I found a small round pink pill, on one side it has 20 imprinted on it and on the other side there is ON with an underline imprinted right underneath.
It is supposed to be Oxycodone but I don't know for sure. I don't want to take it without knowing for sure.
If it is, is it instant release or extended ?
I can't find anything on google or any of the pill identifier sites.
Anyone know ?

In all likelihood, any gains from the Ryan pick—in terms of mobilizing the conservative base—are offset (or even outweighed) by the fact that Romney has introduced a huge a new danger to his campaign. If Obama's Medicare attacks are successful in peeling off seniors from Romney's coalition, the path to 50+1 percent of the vote is much more difficult—if not impossible—for the former Massachusetts governor.
Indeed, as Sean Trende (who is far from easy toward Obama) points out at Real Clear Politics, this new vulnerability introduces the potential for something that was quite unlikely before—an Obama landslide. He explains:
"I've always thought that Obama wouldn't be able to win more than a two-to-three-point re-election victory, mainly because a president almost never wins the votes of people who disapprove of the job that he is doing, and Obama's approval rating is unlikely to be much above 50 percent on Election Day. But, while I don't think it's guaranteed, this really does give Democrats an opportunity to make Romney so radioactive that people who don't like the president nevertheless vote for him. If the white working class revolts at the prospect of the Ryan plan, Obama really could match, or even exceed, his 2008 showing."
There's always a tendency to assume some strategic calculation on the part of politicians—or find some reason for why a given choice isn't a bad one—but in this case, the simplest explanation is probably the correct one. Ryan is an unknown politician with a deeply unpopular plan. Right now, the conventional wisdom is that this somehow means he was a smart pick who can help Romney win voters who are looking for "big" solutions to our problems.

Mike Golding's boat was hit by a giant squid, Sir Robin Knox-Johnston savoured a bottle of Rioja wine and Alex Thomson was preparing to climb his mast.
Swiss skipper Bernard Stamm led by 530 nautical miles from Japan's Kojiro Shiraishi on day 13.
Kiwi Graham Dalton was heading for the island of Porto Santo to make repairs.
Dalton is experiencing problems with the port rudder of his Open 50 and will serve out the obligatory 48-hour time penalty in the island to the east of Madeira.
Golding was in third place, about 130 nautical miles adrift of Shiraishi after being forced into port following the storm early in the race.
But he was confident of catching the Japanese soon, despite his brush with the giant squid.
"The decks and even the foot of the headsail were covered - it looks like squid ink and there's an awful lot of it," said Golding. "It was pretty big, but I'm not worried I'm bigger."
He added: "The weather is great if you're on holiday, not if you're trying to sail. With crystal skies and glassy seas it becomes very difficult to keep the boat speed up and consistent.
"It requires a huge amount of concentration and very light gentle movements around the boat."
Thomson, who has been bombarded by flying fish, was steeling himself to scale the mast to repair a problem with the furling gear before he reaches the Southern Ocean.
"Potentially I have a big problem," said Thomson who was fourth, 130 nautical miles behind Golding on Friday.
"I cannot sail the rest of the race like this, because if it got really windy and I could not put the sail away, or if it unfurled itself again, I could be putting both the boat and myself at risk. Not such a smart move.
"We have been looking at the various options to resolve this, and one of them is to stop and replace the stay.
"However I am not into this idea, as I have already had 48 hours in port, and as the saying goes 'port rots ships and men' - not to mention that I just cannot afford another stop."
Veteran sailor Knox-Johnston, 67, meanwhile, was in high spirits as he tried to keep pace with the leading bunch.
"I discovered a very good bottle of Rioja, which went down extraordinarily well with Spanish bread, onions and cheese," said Knox-Johnston, who in 1969 became the first person to sail solo non-stop around the world.
"However, I have been experiencing some poor weather conditions with various small squalls blowing through. All these expensive weather files but none predicted this little nasty."
The first of three legs began in Bilbao, Spain and will take the fleet through the treacherous Southern Ocean, ending in Fremantle, Western Australia in early December.
The race then stops in Norfolk, USA, before a final leg back to Bilbao, arriving in Spain sometime in April 2007.

Seahawks earn second trip to Super Bowl with 23-17 NFC Championship win over 49ers - Jan. 19, 2014
Wide receivers Golden Tate #81, wide receiver Doug Baldwin #89 and Earl Thomas #29 of the Seattle Seahawks celebrate after the Seahawks 23-17 victory against the San Francisco 49ers during the 2014 NFC Championship at CenturyLink Field on January 19, 2014 in Seattle, Washington.

SEATTLE - Michael Robinson was in no rush to exit the field.
Robinson was trying to savor every image, every moment as he slowly retreated to the locker room Sunday night. The Seattle Seahawks had just earned a trip to their second Super Bowl in franchise history with a thrilling 23-17 victory over the divisional rival San Francisco 49ers.
Robinson wasn't bouncing around the field sporting a giant grin. He wasn't climbing into the stands in the south end zone to celebrate the victory like teammate Richard Sherman.
On the contrary, Robinson looked skyward, wiping away tears that were streaming down his face. The eight-year veteran knows moments like this don't come around too often and he wanted to make sure he remembered all of it.
"I wanted every second of it, man," Robinson said. "Every single second of it. We have the best fans in the world and I'm glad we're about to do it here."
Protecting a six-point cushion late with the 49ers pushing into Seattle's red zone, the Seahawks defense came through as it has all season long.
Colin Kaepernick's pass intended for Michael Crabtree in the end zone with 30 seconds left to play was deflected into the air by Sherman and Malcolm Smith settled underneath for the game-clinching interception.
After seeing the defense fall short while trying to protect a lead last season in Atlanta, the triumph this time felt all the better.
"I've never been in a position like this before," Robinson said. "Very gratifying."
Russell Wilson passed for 215 yards and a touchdown, Marshawn Lynch ran for 109 yards and a score and Seattle overcome an early 10-0 deficit to win the NFC Championship and advance to Super Bowl XLVIII against the Denver Broncos.
"Not until Sherm tips the ball to Malcolm did it even hit me," head coach Pete Carroll said. "...It never really hit me until that moment. All I can tell you is it's quite a magical moment. You can't quite grasp the reality of it. Is this really happening? Did we really do this? It's very, very special.
Wilson was sacked by Aldon Smith and stripped on the first play of the game for Seattle. The 49ers recovered the loose ball and Phil Dawson's 25-yard field goal gave San Francisco an early 3-0 lead.
A defensive holding penalty against Sherman kept alive a San Francisco drive and the 49ers capitalized. Kaepernick scrambled for 12 yards and 58 yards on consecutive plays to move the 49ers deep into Seattle territory. Anthony Dixon scored on a 1-yard plunge to give San Francisco a 10-0 lead.
Seattle's offense has been mostly nonexistent over the last several weeks and were now facing a double-digit deficit against one of the best defenses in the NFL. But Wilson and the Seahawks remained calm and collected offensively.
Wilson connected with Doug Baldwin for 51 yards after evading several defenders in the pocket on a play that helped spark a dormant Seattle attack.
"We knew they were going to bring pressure. We knew it was going to be tough to run. We knew that we needed to make plays down field when the opportunity showed and we did that for the most part," Golden Tate said.
Steven Hauschka converted a 32-yard field goal to get Seattle on the board before halftime.
Lynch took control on Seattle' first drive of the third quarter. Lynch accounted for 56 yards on a four-play, 60-yard scoring drive. Lynch broke free for a 40-yard touchdown run to tie the game at 10-10.
The 49ers quickly answered to retake the lead. Kaepernick hit Crabtree for 22 yards and then ran for another 22 to move in Seattle territory. Kaepernick then connected with Anquan Boldin for a 26-yard touchdown over the outstretched arms of Earl Thomas to give San Francisco a 17-10 lead.
The Seahawks followed with a scoring drive of their own as Hauschka converted a 40-yard field goal to close the gap to 17-13.
Seattle looked on the verge of squandering a decent scoring opportunity late in the quarter. After moving to the 49ers' 34-yard line, Wilson was called for intentional grounding and Seattle faced a third-and-20 from midfield. Wilson hit Zach Miller for 15 yards to setup a fourth-and-7 and likely field goal try.
Instead, Carroll chose to roll the dice.
Seattle put the offense back on the field and elected to go for it. Aldon Smith jumped offside to give the Seahawks a free play and Wilson took a shot into the end zone. Jermaine Kearse reeled in the 35-yard touchdown pass and Seattle took their first lead of the game at 20-17.
Carroll said they didn't want to punt and didn't like the chances on a field goal try. The 53-yard field goal would have been longer than Hauschka had converted in pregame warmups. So they just decided to go for it instead of punt to a short field.
Kearse said the play converted to the vertical routes run by Seattle's receivers after Smith jumped offside.
"It's an adjustment," Kearse said. "When we draw them offside it's something that we adjust to. It's a free play so you've got to take a shot."
Seattle's defense then went to work protecting the lead. The 49ers committed three turnovers in the fourth quarter as the Seahawks defense continued to make plays. Cliff Avril sacked and stripped Kaepernick deep in 49ers' territory but the Seahawks were turned away at the 1-yard line.
Kam Chancellor then intercepted Kaepernick on a pass intended for Boldin along the left sideline. Seattle converted the field position into three more points on a 47-yard field goal by Hauschka to extend the lead to 23-17.
Then Sherman came up with the tipped pass and Smith's interception sealed the victory for the Seahawks.
Now Seattle will face the league's top-ranked offense in two weeks in Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos.
"That's as tough a game as you can get in the Super Bowl. The number one defense against the number one offense," Sherman said. "It doesn't happen like this too often; both number one seeds make it. It's a testament to the hard work of both teams and I'm sure it's going to be a great game."

I have followed an online tutorial that let me establish an inbound
pptp connection to my m0n0wall router. However, once connected
sucessfully I don't seem to be able to see network assets. I'm trying
to mount shares on my Win2k desktop. I can't see the PC from the WAN
side of the VPN. The VPN client gets issued an IP ok. I tried accessing
the desktop via both the machine name and the IP address. Both fail.
In a similar vien....I have a Linux box acting as an iPBX. I usually
administer it via ssh from my desktop. When I log into m0n0 via the vpn
I can't connect to the Linux box via ssh.
What am I missing? It feels like the same thing in both cases.

Global Support Services > International Tax > Working without a Social Security Number
Working without a Social Security Number
International persons who have proof of employment eligibility (employment authorization) may begin work without a Social Security Number (SSN). These employees must apply for an SSN, however, and be able to provide the number immediately upon receipt (or no later than 90 days after hire).
International employees who do not have an SSN will be assigned a temporary Placeholder Number (PHN) by the International Tax Office (ITO).
Once the SSN is obtained, the international employee must do the following:
- Update their GLACIER account with the SSN number. They will need to notify the ITO that this has been done so that a new tax analysis can be performed and if necessary, new tax forms can be generated . It is not necessary to re-send the immigration documents if the immigration information has not changed.
Contact Human Resources and update their I-9 information.
Sign and return any tax forms necessary for tax treaty exemptions to the ITO.
The ITO will verify that the international employee's payroll record has been updated with the SSN and if applicable submit any tax treaty exemption documentation to the HR Processing department.

Gracie Otto, AACTA Awards, January 2013
Remember how in Bridget Jones' Diary Bridget's mother was always after her to "get her colours done". Finding out if you were a 'warm' or 'cool' person was once the height of sartorial aspiration. And while yes indeed there are colours that aren't terribly flattering to one's visage, the rules have relaxed some. How else do you explain chartreuse. And how also do you explain how hot darn good Gracie Otto looks in it. Chartreuse is not an easy colour to wear. It helps if the said item is from Gucci, and a fluid, silky, frilly number as demonstrated here. But really, so long as a colour doesn't make you look like death warmed up (or even if it does and you simply love it well then carry on) you should wear whatever colour you fancy. Chartreuse most definitely encouraged.

Absolutely Beautiful!
By Heidi
from Ontario
I ordered this pendant after listening to the meaning that Eva spoke of about the feather. I am going through a tough time right now and just wearing it reminds me that things will get better. From purely a jewelry standpoint, the quality is amazing! The chain is so beautiful and substantial, the pendant itself has so much detail and is so pretty. I can't believe the price I paid for this piece! it was so much lower than one would expect for such a quality piece. The package that it arrived in was above and beyond topped off with a beautiful saying from Evan inside. I will be very happy to purchase another piece from Evan again and I will enjoy wearing this one for years to come! Thanks Eva!!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Spiritual and Intriguing
By Joanne
from Huntsville, Ontario
I purchased this pendant as a birthday gift for my sister. She was extremely happy I was able to get the "last" one - I rushed to order on line when I saw there was only 12 left. I knew it was an item that would be sold out and I got lucky with my order. Needless to say we were both really happy that I was able to get it. Great piece for a great price. Lovely design that gives a sense of serenity and beauty and I'm sure will get a lot of compliments.

Lady Gaga: Let Them Eat Cake!
Giving her fans a thrilling start to the week, Lady Gaga has released a new teaser clip to promote her new single "Cake."
In the 15-second spot, the "Born This Way" songstress dons some barely-there lingerie and writhes around on a big frosted cake, all the while looking seductively at the camera.
At one point, Mother Monster hops into a bathtub, signifying that she's in need of a good cleansing from her dirty deeds.
One of the song's pointed lyrics states, "I'm getting fat and so is my bank/With a sold-out world tour, bitch." Seems par for the course for our beloved Gaga!

It's simple, and free.
Infusions of $2 billion in American aid had begun by keeping a defeated enemy with an economy in ruins from starving to death. It had ended by rebuilding the Japanese economy to levels that even at an early stage markedly surpassed prewar standards. In his book on the Japanese occupation, one author paints a vivid picture:
In time, the Japanese brought their consumer products up to and above world standards and captured world markets. But how could they have done so without enough local consumers in the first place? [This development was] . . . demonstrated [by] the hordes of electric appliance salesmen squatting in the village street across from the local food corporation office . . . when the farmers and their wives arrived . . . to collect their payments for the
harvest . . . The electric juicers, rice cookers, vacuum cleaners, and "room coolers" that competed for the farm wife's eye, to say nothing of the small power cultivators the farmer bought, were all tried out on the Japanese first and then, suitably improved, sold overseas. A generation before, the same farmers or their parents sold their daughters into mills and brothels to buy food and only silk habutae, celluloid toys and small electric bulbs could be offered to foreign buyers from what was then normal production for the Japanese market at home (Cohen, 1987, pp. 458-459).
In his own recollections of the Korean War, Theodore Cohen, then an official in the U.S. occupation, recalls a budget mission to the U.S. Pentagon to submit Japanese aid requirements for 1951-52:
I was constantly reminded, "Now, with the war, Japan doesn't need aid any more. And no wonder. In the single month of August 1950, U.S. procurement officers signed contracts with Japanese suppliers for $60 million in goods and
services . . . In the second half of 1950 . . . receipts tripled and during 1951 they reached almost $1 billion. This was three-quarters as much as all other Japanese for...

No, I don't think the artists are "doing it wrong" by complaining about modern games, but when topics such as premium content and microtransactions are an important part of gaming culture, it makes you wonder about the ways the industry has changed through the years. Some of those changes are for the better; no one should have any issues with excellent episodic-style game releases or free downloadable add-ons for their favorite games. Others are met with constant debates. Could some publishers simply be doing it wrong?
When I look at the weekly Mario-themed comics now, I realize that some players might be yearning for simpler times. Who could be faulted for that? I encourage you to check out last week's webcomics and vote for your favorite after the break!

The reason for this decision was the way of settling the
2013 year rector election. When the term of the previous
rector ran out an election with three candidates was held. In
the first turn nobody won an absolute majority, so a new turn
had to be organized. One of the candidates, the previous rector,
withdrew his candidacy, and he said that he supported the
person who had got most votes in the first turn. Some months
later a new election was organized between the remaining two
candidates. This time the candidate supported by the previous
rector got two third of the votes, and the other candidate got
the rector post. This was the point when I decided to give up
my job at Debrecen University.
Formally the ministry had the right to propose the loser
of the election for the rector post, and the president of
Hungary had the right to accept it. But under normal
circumstances this should not happen. Moreover, I think
that the problem behind this election is much deeper
than just a nomination for the post of the rector.
In the work of a university (just as in all larger communities)
some dispute may occur. A dispute among the members of a group
is not a serious problem if at the end the people taking part in
it can find an appropriate compromise. But such a compromise is
possible only if the people in the community have mutual
respect for each other. The procedure of this rector election
means for me the lack of this respect. It is questionable for
me that under such circumstances meaningful work is possible.
This was the reason for my decision to leave Debrecen

Short history: Rooted 4.2 a while back, but the speakers stopped working (constant headphone mode) so I thought a software update was finally in order. Did the 4.3 update (not knowing about Knox) to see if that fixed the headphone issue (it didn't) then installed TWRP and tried to install the 4.4 OMNI nightly. After install, it hangs on Samsung logo (soft brick?). Restored to backup, but still hangs. Tried installing SlimKat 4.4, but the install fails. Unsure where to go from here.
Phone still powers up, goes into both Download and Recovery mode. TWRP is the current bootloader(?)/recovery(?).
So, is there a simple reason I'm soft-bricked? I read that Knox is in the bootloader, so is it because I'm using TWRP that it hangs? I find it odd that after restoring to previous settings it still doesn't function. Also, I don't care about the warranty bit, so anything is on the table for me.
Much love to those who spend the time to help out, please link to any resources for me and others who have the same problem. I'll append the working solution to this post for quick access in the future!

Blues are pragmatic about sex and marriage. Reds are idealistic about them. Sociologist Maria Kefalas gets at this by talking about marriage "planners" and marriage "naturalists," although I don't think those terms map nicely onto blue and red because while the number of marriage "naturalists" out there are shrinking by the day, there are still plenty of reds.
Since blues are so pragmatic about relationships, cohabiting is fine. End of story. It's the default, expected option among the majority of them. Marriage will often follow, but pressure toward that end will most likely emerge slowly, over several years. For reds, cohabiting can be a long-term arrangement—especially among less-educated reds—but it continues to be imagined as a temporary fix, with traditional marriage understood as the preferred arrangement. Among many reds, however, the temporary fix is getting longer and starting to look more and more permanent.
As noted in previous weeks, reds and blues often chase similar things: they both like sex, they're serial monogamists, and most still esteem marriage. For both, sexual attraction and romantic love, once considered too fragile to sustain marriage, have instead become the primary criteria both for entering and exiting the institution [Read more…]

I Promise: The Last Duck Story (How To Brine A Duck)
I try not to be wishy-washy in most things, and brining is no exception. I went the overkill route, with a 5:1 ratio of water to sugar and salt (or more accurately; 10:1:1). In retrospect, I used too much sugar, so if I ever brine a duck again, I'll use just a slightly smaller amount of sugar and replace it with more salt. I also added some fresh thyme, sage and garlic, in addition to freshly ground black pepper and some juniper berries. What? I once had a juniper berry-cured pork chop that was spectacular, and because I didn't know what the hell I was doing...Anyway, I mixed everything in a pot and boiled it gently for about ten minutes to dissolve the sugar and salt and to extract some extra flavor from the herbs and spices. I then stuck the pot in the refrigerator for an hour or so to cool, plopped the duck into its lovely and fragrant bath, and left it for four hours. After the brining I rinsed the duck in fresh water, dried it, and left in the refrigerator to dry overnight.
The roasting was simple. I stuffed the cavity with whatever I had floating around in the vegetable drawer (carrots, celery, onion, orange) and put the duck into a hot, hot oven (450°F) until the skin was crispy and before the rendered fat burst into flames. About 45 minutes into the roasting, I removed as much of the fat as I could.
Total time? I don't really know, but the skin was nice and crispy, and the tips of the wings were just a bit charred. And the flavor? Very nicely seasoned, but the salt and sugar overwhelmed the herbs. I really liked the flavor, but it is certainly not a subtle dish. Interestingly, the most important part of this dish has nothing to do with the brining; it is the drying before roasting and then roasting it at a very high temperature. That, Grasshopper, is the secret to duck. I wish that the brine made a huge difference, but all it did was salt the duck and add a bit of sweetness to the meat. I think that I will continue to brine my ducks, but if I don't have the time or energy, I certainly won't worry that I am short-changing my taste buds. Maybe adding more herbs and spices to the brine will help, but I wouldn't increase the time in the liquid. The duck was borderline too salty.
Now that I have driven both of my readers away with my incessant ranting about brining, I will console myself with a duck burrito.

Dining in the Dark at Chef Adrianne's: Enlightening!
Here are photos of last night's Dining in the Dark experience at Chef Adrianne's Vineyard Restaurant and Bar. It was quite the task to aim a spoon full of mushroom broth and an orgasmic pork wonton in the right direction without spilling all over yourself and your neighbor.... on that note, sorry, neighbor.
Who knew a flute of Corona would make it taste so much better? Maybe it was the fresh ginger. Either way, we downed it.
A fantastic mushroom broth soup with steamed pork wontons.
Egg noodle lo mein with assorted vegetables.
Fried pork wontons with szechuan peppercorns gave us a tingling, numbing feel (fun fact: aphrodisiac).

About Becki L. Sheets-Klinger
I've also started to really take notice of the fine details of a shot. I am learning to pay attention and think about the shot before I shoot. I now think about how I want the shot to look, and then do my best to try to make that happen. I still have alot to learn and a long way to go, but I am having alot of fun with photography and I have a strong desire to learn and improve upon my skills.
Though I still shoot alot with the Auto modes on my cameras right now, I am experimenting more and more with the manual settings, trying to learn how each setting works and how to use them properly.
I got a Canon Rebel Ti 35mm about 3 years ago, and a Kodak DX7590 5.0MP digital last year. Since I got my digital camera, I seem to use it the most, as I can see my results quicker and can experiment more effectively with it. And now I have just upgraded to a Canon Rebel XTi!
I am also just learning the basics of my photo editing softwares. I mostly use ACDSee Pro and Micrografx Picture Publisher, but also have Photoshop Elements 3.0 that I use on occassion.
I welcome your feedback and constructive criticism, as that encourages me and helps me learn. I look forward to sharing my work, viewing yours, and being part of your community.

CASH-STRAPPED council bosses in Worcester are going to dump Saturday skips from April, sparking fears it could increase flytipping.
Worcester City Council says the skips which are placed around eight different locations every month are being removed to save £15,000.
For over 20 years the skips have appeared in locations like Shap Drive, Warndon, Liverpool Road, Ronkswood, and Waverley Street in Diglis for residents to dump rubbish.
As part of plans to save £974,000 from April council chiefs say they will vanish.
The move has been criticised by politicians, who fear it will encourage people to dump waste instead.
Councillor Jo Hodges said: "We're not talking about the reduction of a service here, it's a total cessation of one.
"The council is basically saying it will stop the service completely and the skips will go.
"I wonder if this really is a wise thing to do, especially if there is an increased cost to the council in terms of flytipping."
The council's leadership say no other local authority in either Worcestershire or Herefordshire still provides a skip service.
They also say since the launch of recycling collections many items that used to be chucked into skips can now be re-used, and that Bilford Road tip is a good alternative for rubbish that can't be placed in the black bins.
At the moment everything placed in the skips goes to landfill, which means the county council will also make a saving of its own.
The overall saving for taxpayers, factoring in both councils is believed to be well over £30,000 a year.
Councillor Matthew Lamb, cabinet member for cleaner and greener, said: "I know there is disquiet on this issue, but there are many alternatives now for people who want to get rid of bulky waste.
"We've looked at the possible consequences but don't think we should not remove something because of a worry people will dump rubbish, what kind of a message does that send out?"
The skips appear at each location once a month, taking in eight parts of the city by visiting two of them each Saturday.
They do not accept hazardous waste or so-called white goods like TVs or fridges.
The cut is part of the budget for 2014/15, which will be voted on by the city council next month.

There are many reasons that people think global warming could be caused by humans. For the last century, we have been destroying our natural resources. Newspaper headlines and magazine articles have many people convinced that global warming is anthropogenic, or human caused. "What you can say is, yes, carbon dioxide (in the atmosphere) is at levels higher than ever before, and carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, so it's reasonable to say that there's warming associated with the increase of carbon dioxide. But you can't make the leap yet that all the cars in the world have led to what we're observing in the thinning of the Greenland ice sheet." said Dr. Waleed Abdalati, the co-author of the paper that proved that Greenland was shrinking. It is hard to distinguish what is human caused. "And so you have all these processed mixed together that have been going on for thousands of years, and you're in the difficult position of trying to separate something very recent from the natural cycle without fully understanding what that natural cycle is." Abdalati said. Recent studies have suggested that eating meat like domestic livestock can affect the planet in a big way. One of the easiest things you can do to help the planet is to cut down on your intake of meat. One calorie of animal protein needs ten times as much fossil fuel and carbon dioxide than one calorie of plant protein. Livestock also produces methane. The EPA reported that livestock produces the most methane in the U.S. The U.S. consumes the most meat out of any country in the world. If everyone would simply cut down on their meat intake and was a little more knowledgeable about our planet, we could dramatically reduce our environmental impact on the world.
Global warming has been blamed on many different natural causes. Around 1,000 A.D. until 1950 A.D. there were very large temperature deviations. This has partly been explained by volcanic eruptions and changes in the sun. Around these times, people did not have the technology to impact the Earth in that way. There have been warming periods early in the Earth's history without human influence. Dr. Krabill, who is the project scientist at NASA's Wallaps Flight Facility, was part of the team that discovered the thinning of Greenland. During 1993 and 1994, Krabill's team took a survey of the altitude of the ice sheets surface on a portion of Greenland using an airborne laser. In 1998, they repeated their test. What they found was that the ice sheet lost 51 cubic kilometers. Another NASA funded study took place where they removed ice cores from glaciers. "These samples suggested that a natural accumulation of snowfall might be to blame," said Dr. Mosley-Thompson, a research scientist for Byrd Polar Research Center at the Ohio State University. Some scientists are also blaming ocean currents. From 1990-1996, a flux of warm water into the North Atlantic as part of the North Atlantic Oscillation may hold some evidence. The earth could also be warming as a response to last glacial period around 10,000 years ago. Global cooling was also a big deal from the 1940's to the late 1970's. Many tests have been performed to try to prove theories about global warming. Scientists cannot perform experiments on the earth's atmosphere. They conduct these experiments in small models under controlled conditions. They change the conditions to see how things react. They also run computer simulations of global climate, although it is impossible to create a perfect model of our climate. "The system is too complex, even the most complex climate model doesn't get it right", said Mosley-Thompson.

Tree rings are also a good indicator of past climates. Dr. Thomas J. Crowley, a geologist at Texas A&M University, found that fluctuations in tree rings matched temperature fluctuations from around 1000 A.D. to 1850 A.D. Fifty percent of the temperature fluctuations that were found in the tree rings were linked to volcanic eruptions and solar intensity. Some Scientists have also used ocean sediment and chemicals trapped in ancient ice.
We must be very careful when researching topics like this because there is a lot of misinformation. One source of such misinformation was a person I encountered by the name of Dr. Fred Singer. His claim was "I have no connections whatsoever with the tobacco industry, now or in the past." Yet, he wrote a letter thanking the Tobacco Institute for $20,000, which was supposed to "support our research and education projects." He was also listed on Exxon Mobil's website as receiving $10,000 in direct funding. He also received $65,000 more in funding from Exxon Mobil. Exxon Mobile has also financed think tanks like the Competitive Enterprise Institute, Alexis de Tocqueville Institute and even Dr. Singer's group. Then "experts" like Dr. Singer are more than happy to pocket the money. Why would all these oil and tobacco companies be sponsoring him if he is supposedly writing about how to cut down on pollution and help the environment when these companies are some of the biggest polluters in the world? Simply to protect their own interests by having "misinformationists" such as Dr. Singer in their pockets.
"I think that there are many scientists that are still locked into the idea that we have to prove something (about causes of climate change) beyond a reasonable doubt. I don't think we necessarily have to do that…that's the way you approach this type of problem." Dr. Crowley said. Disagreement is unavoidable in this situation. With so many people, ideas, and opinions, it is hard to tell what the truth actually is. I think there is more evidence for human influence rather than natural causes. I don't think that humans are helping the environment and we could be doing a lot more than we are now. As technology gets better, so will our answers.

Where did the money go? Patients are waiting longer for elective surgery than they were before the Rudd government threw $300 million at the problem, and COAG Reform Council chairman Paul McClintock says we should be asking why.
Big jumps in waiting times for elective surgery in the eastern states have pushed up the national average, according to the latest report card by the council.
"Nationally we have not seen a consistent improvement in either elective surgery or emergency waiting times," Mr McClintock said.
"You are entitled to ask whether the money being spent through the national partnerships are really delivering long-term improvements."
The report shows that those in NSW are the worst off, waiting on average 47 days for elective surgery. That's 18 days longer than when the Rudd government kicked off its health reforms with $300 million in new funding for the states "to reduce the number of Australians waiting longer than clinically recommended times for elective surgery".
Three years on, the longest wait in NSW is 252 days.
COAG found waiting times in South Australia, Western Australia and the Northern Territory had improved but the average wait across the country was now two days longer than a few years ago.
Emergency waiting times, another big target of the Rudd/Gillard governments' health reforms, improved marginally across the country, with 68 per cent of patients being seen within the recommended time, up from 67 per cent in 2007-08.
The report shows health outcomes for those living outside the major cities have improved little, or even grown worse in recent years.
Regional and rural dwellers are less likely to survive cancer, wait longer for elective surgery, can access fewer mental health services and are more likely to have babies with a low birth weight.
The report found the proportion of people who had put off seeing a doctor due to cost increased from 6.4 per cent in 2009-10 to 8.7 per cent in 2010-11.
Many more people – about 26.4 per cent of the population – reported financial barriers to seeing a dentist. And the number of dental services provided by hospitals fell by almost 20 per cent in two years.
These findings, along with recent reports that suggest children's oral health has got worse, will reinforce calls for a new, means-tested public dental system.
The Gillard government is keen for a new approach so it can end a chronic disease dental scheme that allows dentists to claim Medicare rebates for referred patients. Health Minister
The COAG analysis underlines the close links between some health outcomes and socio-economic status. In aged care, for example, people from disadvantaged areas will spend three times as long in hospital waiting for a place in a nursing home than those at the other end of the socio-economic spectrum.

You can't get into a BMW 3 Series without paying atleast $40,000. A $40,000 car is way out-of-sight for most 90% of the population.
You missed my point. You can get into a BMW for $400 a month. That's the same as a Camry or what the F150 the guy fixing your toilet drove. Of course there are people who cannot afford any car payment but that's not part of the discussion. I don't see any point comparing a new car to a 1986 Olds Cutlass. NTTAWWT. My commuting car is closer to that and I love it. And -- I cast no judgment on people based on what they own or can afford, and I am not saying anyone here does either.
Some people are fooled into thinking a 3 series is a status symbol. It ain't. Great handling car for a reasonable price. Ain't no big deal.

Personal Spaceflight: Reports
Commercial Spaceflight Federation: 2009 Annual Report
"This report showcases a year's worth of exciting progress for the commercial spaceflight industry and the members of the Commercial Spaceflight Federation," says Bretton Alexander, Commercial Spaceflight Federation President, in the opening page of the report.
Commercial Human Space Travel Provides New Research Opportunities
Katharine Sanderson's Special Report in Nature describes how commercial spaceflight can open doors for lower-cost, more frequent, flexible access to space for researchers (subscript or fee req'd). See free editorial, "Divide and Conquer", same issue, same topic.
Ex-ESA Officials Claim "Space Tourism is a Hoax"!
Who is selling tickets to people from $20K to $200K to access orbital space? Not the suborbital spaceflight industry as Engstrom and Pfeffer claim!
Notes on "Innovations in Orbit: An Exploration of Commercial Crew & Cargo Transportation"
These notes were taken by Clark Lindsey of HobbySpace.Com in collaboration with Ken Davidian, FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation. Davidian was one of the panel participants in this important AIAA-sponsored event in Washington, DC, June 18, 2009. The meeting was held at Hyatt Regency Washington, Capitol Hill and included commercial space industry and government panels followed by a Q&A session.
Taking Wing: Liftoff for public space travel
"How do you form a business around a hoped-for hunger by the public to fly to the edge of space?" David provides an insider's view of how Virgin Galactic has teamed with Scaled Composites to make commercial spaceflight a viable business. A Feb '09 update on this steadily progessing business endeavor.
NewSpace Nation
"Jeff Krukin has written a much needed and practical introduction to the evolving entrepreneurial space industry. Drawing on his experience as Executive Director of the Space Frontier Foundation and as a NewSpace business consultant…, Jeff brings invaluable insight about an emerging industry that promises to significantly impact our lives. Whether you are an investor, space exploration aficionado, or someone who just wants to know about these vehicles that will one day soon fly overhead, this primer should be on your must read list." (review by Patti Grace Smith, former Assist Admin. of Commercial Space Transportation at FAA on the publisher's web site at http://www.lulu.com)
Analysis of Human Spaceflight Safety: Report to Congress, 11 Nov 2008
This report, initiated by congress was sponsored by the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation. It is an independent Study Mandated by Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-492) that covers safety, operations, current guidelines and makes recommendations in 8 areas for safe human spaceflight driven by the emergence of the private spaceflight industry (space tourism).
Biology-Based Technology for Exploration
This report, published by the National Research Council, addresses technology needs for extended-duration stays in space, such as orbital tourism or extended space exploration.

MINING magnate Gina Rinehart has been ordered to pay the legal bills of three of her four children incurred in their long-running battle to remove her as trustee of the family's multibillion-dollar trust.
Mrs Rinehart, the wealthiest woman in the world, has also been ordered to pay costs to media organisations including Fairfax Media (owner of The Age).
The mining magnate has been fighting her three eldest children — John Hancock, Bianca Rinehart and Hope Welker — in the courts over control of the trust since last September.
In the New South Wales Court of Appeal yesterday, Mrs Rinehart and her youngest daughter and ally, Ginia Rinehart, were ordered to pay the plaintiff children costs they incurred in opposing her attempts to stay earlier court decisions.
Mrs Rinehart had asked the court to stay a decision made on December 19, 2011, which allowed the media to publish details of the family feud that had been suppressed by another judge in October.
Mrs Rinehart's lawyers said they wanted to seek special leave to appeal to the High Court and, without a suppression order, the very details Mrs Rinehart wanted to keep secret would be published before the High Court could prevent it.

Ok, what you guys want.
I will give the explanation.
But read ALL of it, or don't and then don't respond.
Warning, it is the biggest bull shit story you ever heared.
Also, a revelation that will piss some people off, but probably no one would believe.
In short:
Another top "official" or how you want to call those guys doesn't matter, is going to be killed.
Probably within the time frame i mentioned, but no later than monday. And o, it is possible it isnt anyone you would excpect.
After that, the situation escalates fast, even faster than expected. Eventually things will get out of hand so bad, a country I rather not mention is going to use a weapon I don't even dare to type it's name and what it does.
The date we realize what we have done comes close to the date everyone is exciting about. Dont get to excited.
How I know all this?
Here comes more BS, read on.
It's all about dreams.
I posted a long time (same nick) on another forum, where some people thought I was psychic, and other people insane.
When there were messages like : "rumours of this and that is about to happen", I would post which ones did going to happen. Some saw it as predictions, others said : Those messages were already on the forum. Hell, almost every doom prediction is on forums, but to pick the ones that do take place is a different story.
Some direct hits that you probably cant verify anymore?
The space shuttle disaster, the tsunami of 2004 and lots more.
When you dream your mind goes in quantum state. If you can have lucid dreams, and I am not talking about lucid, but really hardcore lucid, you can see possible future events. The shorter the time between dreaming and actual pre occuring events, the more chance it will happen.
If you can add 1 + 1, you are right, I sleep not 8 hours a day, but more often shorter. Like 6 times 1.5 hours or even 8 times one hour, just to see what is awaiting us and combine my experiences from the "real" world with the dream state.
I was often looking to share my "experiences" or warn people in some way. Problem is, in some cases these so called predictions are way off. I already knew that from the beginning.
You can easily verify all the (or some) of the wrong predictions i have made together with a fiend on mine.
They are posted here : [
link to www.johntitor.com
] .
How is that for bs?
But what can you expect.
Im just a nobody, another lunatic on a forum.
And all what I told isnt going to happen.
Voyager 11635668
Thank you very much OP. All significant events are revealed in people's dreams, just most people are not sensitive enough to see it or remember it.
Please verify you're human:

Title 42 of the Public Health Service Act provides authority to appoint and set pay for difficult to fill, critical scientific and medical positions in the Public Health Service.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) uses this authority, which allows them to pay individuals above the salary limits of other government employees, to attract and retain topnotch scientists and researchers who might otherwise go into academia or the private sector.
Clearly, the Secretary needs some flexibility to attract and retain the best and brightest in science and medicine. But, these authorities should be limited and transparent.
Laws passed by Congress and regulations promulgated since the 30s and 40s show that the program was intended for special use when there was no other way to hire needed experts. It was never intended to be used as an alternative compensation program. Yet, in 2010, almost 7,000 employees at HHS were appointed using Title 42 authority, a 25 percent increase over five years.
Some of those annual salaries have reached levels higher than $350,000. HHS has recently moved to lower the caps on these salaries. Yet, the Secretary of HHS can still approve pay levels higher than the caps, which may give her more hiring and compensation authority than anyone else in the federal government.
In 2005, the Environmental Protection Agency began hiring experts using the Title 42 authority, once again to fill critical science positions. Now,15 of the 17 positions at the EPA are paid at or above Executive Level IV.
The extensive use of Title 42 and the unprecedented authority of the Secretary to compensate some experts at extraordinarily high rates led the committee to ask the GAO to analyze the laws that govern Title 42 and audit its use at HHS and EPA.
Today, we have asked GAO to share the results of that study.
Rep. Joe Barton has introduced H.R. 6214, the HHS Employee Compensation Reform Act of 2012, which makes simple, commonsense changes to the use of Title 42 authorities.
It limits the use of Title 42 authority to HHS; caps the number of Title 42 hires to 5 percent of the total number of employees at HHS; ensures that compensation may not exceed 150 percent of Executive Level I; allows up to 50 employees to be paid without regard to compensation limitation if the secretary determines the position is vital; and requires a report to Congress six months after enactment.
I commend Mr. Barton for his work on this issue.

Event Details
Booked: Cleveland's arts and culture reading exchange is a new idea from CPAC to get arts and culture professionals together and talking. Every other month, CPAC is hosting this discussion group focused on works of nonfiction by thought leaders within, and outside of, the arts and culture field. One month it might focus on innovation, another month it might focus on advocacy or marketing. This month we are focusing on Rust Belt Chic, a concept known to many a Clevelander. What is your response to any or all of the writers in the anthology and what does it mean for arts and culture?
Rust Belt Chic is available for purchase both online and in print. View availability.
This session will be moderated by Megan Van Voorhis, and the discussion will be shaped by those in the room. We are happy to partner with Mac's Backs-Books on Coventry for the inaugural Booked meeting where you may also purchase copies of Rust Belt Chic. Mac'x Backs is located on Coventry Road in Cleveland Heights. Mac's hosts readings, book signings, author events, book clubs and writing workshops. Mac's Backs is a member of IndieBound, a national partnership between independent and community book stores.
