I said "tax receipts" not "tax rates."
Cash flow must be generated by commodities at the base; capital management is not capital creation.
If you allow capital management to create capital (outside the ordinary loan-generation spectrum of banking) any capital that is created must by definition be inflationary.
However, if wealth is destroyed at a pace and on a scale that is roughly equivalent to the pace and scale of the creation of the inflationary "currency," those who receive the inflationary currency can purchase the destroyed wealth and offset any (national) deflationary trend that would have otherwise been set off by the wealth destruction.
That is how you transfer a lot of wealth to a few hands.
The Book of Dave, Chapter 30
I addressed most of your points in the post.
The example I gave was exaggerated to make the point simply.
Your list still assumes a zero sum game, particularly by drawing no distinction between tax rates and tax revenues. Lower rates CAN generate higher tax revenues.
Of course it's about cash flow. And, no there is no Doomsday associated only with national debt. Doomsday is a function of huge uncontrolled deficits that cannot be fixed.
I understand what you're trying to say but you're flailing around.

"If your income is rising faster than your debt, foreclosure day never comes."
This can be true for a person but it is utter folly to apply the same logic to the government. Government cannot increase income except by increase tax receipts. This can happen one of four ways.
1) wages are stable while taxes increase
2) wages increase while taxes remain stable
3) wages increase and taxes increase
4) wages decrease and taxes increase
Now, you want cite the example of a person who is doubling their earnings ever year. Under what scenario does a 2 trillion dollar government increase it tax revenues by 100% a year?
Unrealistic hyperbole.
Realistic: #1 or # 4. Why?
Mainliners, Chapters 11-14

I apologize for not being more specific. Of course the annual deficit matters. It is implied in the comment about the national debt. The debt is a problem because once you reach a certain tipping point the debt drives itself. Borrowing becomes necessary, not optional. There is no ability to restrain the deficit much like the brakes on a car cease to work once the car has driven over the edge of a mountain.
Now cash flow of course matters. But the country cannot suddenly have 5 to 10% cash flow growth (let's call it wage growth) without triggering inflation. Flat fact. And guess what inflation will do? Increase the borrowing costs for our government. How? Because the only tool the government has to combat inflation (excluding commodities subsidization) is the interest rate setting function at the FED. And if you increase the borrowing costs at the exact time that the government faces an unprecedented "retiree problem" then the economy will break.
Now what you want to see is a return on investment (ROI). And we have less than zero for all the money we spent in Iraq and Afghanistan. In fact, getting attacked by terrorists again would arguably have been less expensive (in blood and treasure) than these wars have been / continue to be.
I was not seeking an argument merely pointing out that you rarely mention the ever-expanding national debt as a looming doomsday event.
Now if all Americans see an increase in their cash flow without a corresponding increase in (product space) output the scarcity function will apply and the cost of goods will go up at a rate that is proportional to the rate of wage growth. This is natural to the extent that inflation is proportional to the average rate of wage growth (and the product space adjusts prices accordingly). But when cash flow outstrips the product creation we have a recipe for hyperinflation.
Cash flow is not a way out of the debt/deficit problem. Unless you want to see a "Wiemar Republic Party" in your future.
I wasn't even talking to you. No wonder they seemed like haymakers. Sorry they landed.
Corzine should go to prison. That's not government business as usual. It's crime.
I haven't accused you of anything. Why do you react so guiltily?
I was talking about the obsession with national debt as opposed to correcting our fiscal woes. How on earth is that overreacting?
Truthfully, I thought "Joseph" was someone different from "Joe." That's the real disadvantage I work with.
Try to factor that in.
All right. You're so literate. Look at theboomerbible.com. book of adam. Twenty years ago I identified an offshoot of capitalism that had nothing to do with creating wealth but being a parasite on capitalist creativity. Go read it. I anticipated all of this. I lived with the assholes who made it happen. I've been battling them all my life. I've lost every college friend I ever had over it. And you get kind of mildly snarky about the chickenhawk argument, like it's a blow you could land but won't.
Rethink that. Think about being 60 with no friends your own age because they've all sold out -- journalism, law, business, science, everything -- and email vile things about your character and accomplishments.
Chickenhawk. Chickens don't live this long. I'm still who I was when I graduated from, yes, fucking prep school. I even weight the same. Everybody else I know has become somebody I can't even recognize. Don't know how old you are. Tell me when you get to be my age that you still have any friends. I think you'll be surprised in one of two ways. One, you won't recognize them. Two, you won't recognize yourself. Three, doesn't matter, none of you recognize any of the others and just get drunk together, pretending it's all okay.

Well, R is angry, threw a bunch of hay-makers that landed, and stung, but he's gassed now, so let me slip left of the turnbuckle and counter.
"Cars aren't reliable transportation because Dale Earnhardt slammed into a wall and died."
Cars may still be reliably, but when one proves faulty, that model is subject to recall, isn't it? What penalties did the investment bankers who sold (according to their leaked e-mails) "shit paper" to investors face, after it was revealed that they didn't have the money to pay on the securities they guaranteed to insure, and that billions of dollars were unaccounted for? What happened to the ratings agencies when they rubber-stamped Triple A on incredibly risky sub-prime loans? Is Corzine not responsible for the 1.2 billion of agricultural subsidy money he can't 'account for,' despite the fact that by his own admission he wanted to turn the firm into a "mini-Goldman Sachs?" (Mission accomplished, by the way).
Your reductio ad absurdum logic makes it seem as if I was Robespierre waving a black flag and calling for the beheading of the 1%. No, investment banking is not the entire economy, but if the "experts" like Greenspan, their guardians (Paulson, Geithner, the Security & Exchange Commission) and the talented captains of industry are all terribly wrong, and all on the public's dime, some skepticism is warranted. And that was all I called for: skepticism. I didn't call for a dismantling. I threw out no baby, merely drained some brackish bathwater through a colander large enough to accommodate Michael Moore's Ziti.
"Because there have never been any crooked politicians, common working class union activists, social justice communities, or women who can't get over the passive power of their inside-out phallic vaginas... Right?"
Again, you're going to get tired doing this. If you want to use tu quoque, you might as well go for ad hominem. Since you don't know me, I'll help you out. My literary career isn't going too well (sold a few short stories here and there, one novel), and my car is in the shop. That should give you a start.
"That would be too demanding by a chicken hawk like me to ask of a great patriot like you? Have I finally got it right?"
Well, this is why you're at something of a disadvantage. I know a lot about you from your blog, and thus can draw on a reserve when I want to go below the belt (i.e. Chickenhawk) with ad hominems.
You've been right many times, and I've been wrong (especially on the Middle East/Israel). This time you're not really right or wrong, just overreacting.
Justifiably skeptical? Bullshit. Cars aren't reliable transportation because Dale Earnhardt slammed into a wall and died.
Sometimes the biggest snobs are people who insist they're the very last shining examples of people in the universe who aren't.
Capitalist crooks? Really? Must be enough to end everybody's belief in capitalism, right, Joe?
Because there have never been any crooked politicians, common working class union activists, social justice communities, or women who can't get over the passive power of their inside-out phallic vaginas... Right?
Why am I sorrowful. Your immediate flop to utter cynicism, for one thing. Did you even vote?
No, don't tell me. That would be too demanding by a chicken hawk like me to ask of a great patriot like you? Have I finally got it right?

"While our progressive leaders take constantly to the airwaves encouraging us to support abortion and quit defending our own cultural traditions in favor of immigrants who don't even ask permission before demanding their share of our lives and livelihoods."
Forgive the double-post, but FINALLY. Krugman, et. al., were basically born in the upper rarefied stratosphere of the Ivory Tower. It has never occured to them that applying a New Deal metric to people who in no way resemble the original New Deal coalition might not work. FDR had the "Grapes of Wrath," salt-of-the-Earth hyper-assimilationists as his clients. And while the Brokaw hageography gets a little old, they pretty much were the Greatest Generation.
We have plenty of data available for 5th generation Hispanics in the US and the stats on standard deviations in IQ, illegitimacy, rates of incarceration make the "Moynihan Report on the Negro Family" read like "Peyton's Place." A European social democracy can work, as evidenced by the ultra-liberal ultra-conformist ice floe known as Scandinavia. But America is not headed for Norway; we are headed for some hideous portmanteau of Haiti-and-Mexico.

"They refuse to understand the basic principle that capitalism creates wealth for everyone in the workforce."
People have become justifiably skeptical in the wake of things like Enron and the '08 investment banking moral hazard racket, though. It's hard to convince people that anything can trickle down when a). Your boss bought his wife a Czarist Faberge egg from Sotheby's with your pension, and b). The CEO of a company is being loaned several hundred billion dollars of your money by your nation's treasurer, who also happened to formerly be a CEO of the aforementioned company.
At least Reagan put people in prison for S & L. All Obama did was try to reposition the foxes closer to the hen-house.
Speaking of Obamanomics, I saw a poster outside the office of a tenured professor that informed students in a smarmy fashion: "If you vote Republican, congratulations on reducing your financial aid."
I'm not exactly sure when loaning people money became an act of benevolence, but if that's the case, then my neighborhood bookie Vinnie the Gindaloon is the most generous, decent man in the world. He will not only give you all the money you ask for, but will even give you three points on the Bengals-Dallas spread this weekend. Maybe he should be president.
As for more general economic philosophy, I rely solely on Paul Krugman's weekly column in the PAPER OF RECORD. From what I've been able to gather, Keynesian economics is based on the following principals:
1.) It's not deregulation if a democrat does it. (It is, in fact, bold leadership).
2). A republican with a net worth of $200,000,000 is a heartless plutocrat, while a democrat worth $16,000,000,000 is a philanthropist.
3). All economic instability stems from the fact that certain people in flyover country still believe in Jesus.

In what has been one of Tinseltown's most-drawn-out divorces, Khloe Kardashian finally managed to get Lamar Odom to autograph their official court documents.
The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" starlet actually filed for divorce back in December 2013 after tying the knot with the troubled NBA basketball pro in 2009.
They love any excuse to get all gussied up and Kendall and Kylie Jenner had a special reason for being at the 2015 ESPYS on Wednesday night (July 15).
The couple that plays together stays together and Khloe Kardashian and her new gentleman caller James Harden worked up a sweat at Cycle House in West Hollywood on Thursday (July 9).
Joined by two spin class instructors, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" babe and the handsome 25-year-old Houston Rockets stud posed for a photo following their workout.
She's declaring her independence from Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian is relying on her sexy sisters to help her get through her recent breakup.
With such a large and beautiful brood, Caitlyn Jenner proudly posted a photo via Twitter to celebrate the Father's Day holiday on Monday (June 22).
She's in the best shape of her life, and Khloe Kardashian has been hitting the gym and watching her diet in order to ditch those pesky pounds.
However, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" cutie has been accused of letting liposuction do the hard work for her, something she swears she hasn't done.
Gearing up for a busy week ahead, a trio of Tinseltown stunners made their way through LAX International Airport on Sunday (May 31).
Khloe Kardashian was all smiles as she greeted some fans and signed autographs while carrying her mustard yellow fedora through the terminal.
They're used to being celebrated everywhere they go, so when the crowd was less-than-welcoming at the Los Angeles Clippers game on Friday night (May 8) Kendall Jenner and Khloe Kardashian didn't know what to think.
According to eyewitnesses, "Khloe and Kendall were shown on camera to get fans cheering and waving. But when [the jumbotron] showed their faces, everyone booed."

Actually hostel rooms were bit cramped but instead of this negative comment, all other things are good. Location is perfect, you can go to underground by 5min walking, hyde park is also very close to hostel. I'm recommending this hostel for your stay in London.

Most of us moan and groan about our parents at some point in our lives. But for all intents and purposes, I was pretty lucky. I had parents who sat back and let me become whatever it was a dreamed of becoming. I'm sure they secretly worried that I'd die penniless and alone, but still, they catered to my wishes for spiral notebooks and Lisa Frank pencil toppers.
They probably took a lot of crap for it, too.
In my early years, I was routinely made to rewrite formal essays for embellishing. Okay, Ms. Floral Dress, you caught me, my golden retriever DOESN'T have mind-reading powers, and no, I didn't have a dream that there was the ghost of a little girl telling me where she'd been buried under my pool, and no I didn't find her locket gleaming at the bottom of the water the next morning.
I was friends with another little girl who liked to write stories, and in response her father taped a list of the New York Times Bestsellers over her bed and he told her that if she couldn't be the real deal, she'd better find something more worthwhile to aspire towards. He also said this to me. I promptly disregarded it. Actually, I tended to disregard any tidbits of reality I didn't like. I still do this often.
I was the kid that never fit in. I was ridiculed for my crazy hair and my habit of staring off into space. It was strange that I was reading Sidney Sheldon in the sixth grade. In the fifth grade, my parents were called in for a meeting because the quiz stated "In your own words, explain (whatever it was)" and I responded in the form of a poem. I would walk around for days and days in mourning when I'd killed off a character that only I knew existed, because I had written her. I hoarded notebooks and showed them to no one. I glued comic strips to my walls.
And most of the time, my parents, both traditional and reserved, were as confused by my behavior as anyone else. I was their only child, their only shot at molding a human being that would one day go out into the world and leave some sort of mark. They could have begged me to be a doctor or a candlestick maker. They could have demanded that I declare a business major if they were to help me with college. Instead, they never told me I had to be something else. They never said that if I couldn't be the "real deal," I'd better find a more worthwhile aspiration. Only as an adult can I look back and truly appreciate what a bang-up job they did of accepting me. But even with that support, I worried for myself. I worried that I wouldn't be the "real deal," and I worried that my dream wasn't to BE the "real deal." I didn't care about being a bestseller. I just wanted to tell stories. I didn't understand why I had such trouble fitting in. I thought I was some kind of mistake.
But like a rolling stone, I kept doing what I felt compelled to do.
My true moment of validation came when I was 25. Shortly after my publisher acquired my trilogy, we all went out to lunch. Here were these professional people with fancy city jobs and snazzy hair, talking about my characters and asking me questions. I'd like you to take a moment to appreciate how weird that was. All the silly imaginings I'd had since I was a child were now the topic of a business lunch. It was kind of the best day ever.
It shouldn't have taken me that long to feel validated. I shouldn't have felt like a mistake. And it shouldn't take a book deal or snazzy hair to make you feel validated, either. At the end of your life, do you want to look back and say that you never worried your teachers, that you always behaved, that you fit in and everything was like a 50s sitcom?
Maybe you're weird, and maybe you're not. Whatever you are, just embrace it. Be you. Be unapologetically you. If people look at you funny, you stand on a chair and proclaim that you're lord of the mud people. If someone tells you that you aren't good enough, tell them you have as many hours in the day that Shakespeare and Einstein and Dr. Condom had. And know that your life is yours to make. Someday, maybe years from now and maybe tomorrow, people will be in AWE of you. They'll see an octagon in a room of squares. So unzip that silly square costume. You don't need to aspire to be the "real deal." You already are.
5 Comments to "Tale of the Octagon at the Square Party"
I love hearing these stories about you, makes me feel like I wasn't the only one that was a bit different growing up and still is. And that it is perfectly fine to be that way.
Wow, great post! I especially loved the 'octagon in a room full of squares image'…awesome!!
Thanks for sharing this with us Lauren! It's funny to think that all of these writer-like traits are more common than I'd though. I finished my novel and am in the querying process, do you have any suggestions for a great query?
I love coming to your blog for inspiration. You never fail to make me smile and feel better. Sincerest thanks Lauren.
Oh and by the way, I just set my square costume on fire
Happy Fever Release day Lauren!!!! I hope this is your best book birthday yet and I will definitely be reading it:)

Lake Monroe is a 10,750 acre flood control reservoir located in Brown and Monroe counties southwest of Abbey-Inn. It is the largest lake in the state with recreational activities such as boating and fishing. Fishing consists primarily of largemouth bass and panfish, such as bluegill and yellow perch. Other angling opportunities include white crappie, hybrid striped bass and yellow perch, as well as channel and flathead catfish. Lake Monroe has also become one of the best walleye fisheries in Indiana.
The Dogwood Room at Abbey-Inn, Brown County Indiana, is close to the best fishing in Indiana.

Students help local nonprofits use social media
Junior English majors Megan Franey, Sara Krome and Megan Robinson, who has a second major in Spanish, used the $2,800 award to teach a series of seven social-media workshops and purchase video recorders and accessories for their students, age 21 to 70, from community organizations. Seniors Danielle Sirk and Betsy Warner joined the trio as media coaches.
The students designed their project to help nonprofits by teaching them how to harness the power of social networking technologies to better communicate with the public, helping them develop a basic understanding of video editing and design, and showing them how to produce a four-minute promotional video for their organizations.
Carroll County Food Sunday Board directors Frank Baylor and Forest Howell were amazed at the amount of information the students presented -- and that they were able to teach in a way even social-media novices could understand and use.
"This opens up whole new avenues for us to get information about the food bank out there," says Howell, explaining that Facebook and YouTube will enable them to reach the younger generation and make them aware of Food Sunday. Last year, Carroll County Food Sunday distributed almost a half-million pounds of food to families in need, Baylor says.
The Historical Society of Carroll County executive director Timmi Pierce brought along volunteer Linda Conroy so that both would develop social-media skills. They were astonished by the detail -- and that now they have a notebook full of handouts to sustain what they learned.
"I learned new things about Twitter and how to make movies the right way," says Conroy, who came to the program with some skills and knowledge in social media.
For the McDaniel students – members of the tech-savvy Millennial generation – navigating and using Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and other social media is almost instinctual.
Still, they soon discovered that they would learn as much as they taught.
"It was very educational," says Robinson, adding that they came to better understand the communication and marketing needs of nonprofits and how social networking can help advance these organizations.
"I learned about working with groups," says Franey, explaining that she and the other student volunteers liked participating in a project that benefits the community.
While Krome's experience included learning "how to present and format the materials in a teachable way.
"We had to make sure it was self-sustaining," she says. "Everything that we gave them – the tutorials and handouts – they'll be able to keep using."
Julia Jasken, McDaniel English professor and the students' advisor, views community outreach as a key part of a liberal arts education and sees a difference in her students' work when they are engaged with real audiences as they are in the Writing for Non-Profit Organizations class that sends students into the field to work for local non-profits.
"I could not have imagined the sessions turning out better," Jasken says of the student-designed workshops. "The students aren't getting credit. They aren't being paid. They were committed to this project and they did it."
The organizations that participated in the workshop are Access Carroll (video), Appalachian Poverty Project, Boys & Girls Club of Westminster, Caring Carroll (video), Carroll County Food Sunday (video), Carroll County Youth Services Bureau, Community Media Center, Family and Children's Service of Central Maryland, First Global Visions, Historical Society of Carroll County (video), Junction (video 1, video 2), The Literacy Council of Carroll County (video), North Carroll Community School, Retired Seniors Volunteer Program, Target Community and Educational Services, Voices for Children, and Westminster Fallfest.
The Griswold-Zepp Award was established to honor Earl Griswold and Ira Zepp, long-time faculty advisors for SOS/Hinge, a community service and volunteerism group. The selection process focuses on the project that most strongly exemplifies the true spirit of volunteerism and community service.

Whether or not State of Origin streaker Wati Holmwood does time in jail, his pear-shaped torso will be a wobbly ghost at every sporting moment where someone gets the itch to ditch the surly bonds of clothdom and run free on the playing fields as Mother Nature surely intended.
It was not always thus. There was no fat man hovering over the streaker craze at its 1970s heyday. Possibly a bloke sporting a straggly beard, a skin-cancer tan and extremely white buttocks, but not too fat. People fitted into airline seats in those days.
Streakers were part of a culture where the boundaries between sportsman and fan were finely nuanced. Loose but defined. A seeming paradox, but it worked. For a time, anyway.
I rejoice in old footage of kids, lanky, pimply, ''unco'' (unco-ordinated, a common gibe for the clumsy type like me), dashing out to congratulate the triumphant sportsman. And then dashing off. That was the key.
What for me was the greatest cricketing moment of my childhood - Doug Walters bringing up his century with a six in Perth, December 14, 1974 - unleashed a stampede on to the WACA ground.
This was the year of the streaker. The trend had come from the US, seemingly from the campus. Times were tough: the Vietnam War blues, the oil shock, Watergate, Patty Hearst. Americans needed a laugh. The streak provided it. Ray Stevens (a wittier version of Weird Al Yankovic) celebrated it in a song, released in March 1974, that reached No. 2 on the Australian charts.
Streakers did wear out their welcome. Australian Test cricket captain Greg Chappell whacked one on the bottom with his bat; TV networks trained their cameras away; commentators muttered primly about selfish antics of a stupid minority.
And the fines skyrocketed. It was no longer feasible for 10 mates to club in $50 each to pay the miscreant's fine.
The fad flickered and faltered, though male hearts rejoiced with the invasion of the 1982 VFL grand final between Richmond and Carlton, by a pert blonde (I will refrain from further adjectives because someone will take umbrage somewhere, except to say that Princess Diana was still the dominant force on hairstyles).
But by that year the threat of violent fans was real. Also at the WACA, Australian Test cricketer Terry Alderman was injured when he tackled a ground-invading spectator. It has been remarked that only two cops were there that day. Things had to change.
The pendulum had to swing, but did it swing too far? Now the beer snake is outlawed, the Mexican wave shunned by the Members' Stand.
The officiousness at cricket matches especially (I can't speak for footy fans), on top of a general air of price-gouging, makes fans like me prefer the comforts of home. The announcer warns spectators of the stiff fines for ground invasion and the serried ranks of the fluoro-vest brigade take their places at precise intervals. (I have often thought that if Australia ever became a dictatorship there would be no shortage of people in vests to keep the rest of us obedient.)
The pendulum had to swing, but did it swing too far?
Of course, we need to acknowledge that the fat man breached an earlier sentence, and accept that the sporting arena needed to be made more family-friendly.
Is there a happy balance? Maybe there never was. The era of the streak was the era of the yobbo, the casual sexist, the incredible road toll. (Oh, so what's changed, you ask.)
Wati Holmwood's barrister made a plea to keep his client out of jail. Will Tuckey told the court: ''This is a gentleman with complicated needs.'' Amen to that, but was he speaking only for the fat man?
The streaker speaks for a time when this fair land was full of lairs and larrikins and ratbags, and the fluoro vest belonged to the building site.
And surely we can't make the fat man carry the burden of the communal requirement that we consider the needs of others in our public conduct. After all, isn't he carrying enough already?

Hi dee ho!
It's been a strange and wonderful week for me! Strange, because of the weird and wild weather we've had here in sunny South Dakota () The week started off fairly nice for February but temperatures soon dropped to the -20F & -30F range and then the snow came. Not a lot of snow, a couple inches, but any amount of snow is a disaster to me! I'm sympathizing with folks back east who REALLY have something to complain about with one storm after another knocking them down and covering them with ice and snow. By comparison, I've had it pretty good here!
The wonderful part...well, many of you already know. 'Drive' got a DD! I actually owe a lot of thanks to Bob for poking and prodding me (not gently either! ) into just submitting it to my gallery, so I say here that I thank you for that, Doc. I can be a colossal pain in the ass where my own photography is concerned and I'm just glad you can see through the bullshit!
I'd also like to feature the person who suggested the shot-- I thank you, my friend!
And I'd also like to thank and feature for featuring 'Drive' as a DD. She is a very busy and dedicated CV for Animals, Plants and Nature. For those who remember, there was a time when the APN gallery didn't have anybody to feature Daily Deviations. Nancy took over and has run with it! Thank you, Nancy!
And, of course, I have to thank you all--my friends and watchers who like my weird, wonderful and sometimes strange offerings and wanderings. That means the world to me!
A New World Has Been Found!

* TSX falls 9.38 points, or 0.07 percent, to 12,518.97 * Seven of 10 main index sectors decline * Gold-mining shares jump on higher bullion price * Potash Corp the biggest negative influence on index By John Tilak TORONTO, July 16 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index was little changed on Tuesday, with weakness in resource shares overcoming a gain in banks as investors seeking clues about the future of the U.S. Federal Reserve's stimulus program focused on Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's congressional testimony on Wednesday. The market also processed mixed U.S. earnings reports as well as data that showed U.S. consumer prices rose in June, while underlying inflation pressures were stabilizing. Investors awaited Bernanke's testimony to try to get a sense of when the Fed will dial back on stimulus. "People are very unsure of what's going on. They're being very prudent," said Irwin Michael, portfolio manager at ABC Funds. "Ben Bernanke seems to have telegraphed the fact that tapering isn't a done deal yet," Michael added. "He'll provide some guidance and that could have an effect on the market." The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was down 9.38 points, or 0.07 percent, at 12,518.97. Michael expects the benchmark Canadian index, which is up slightly on the year, to start outperforming the U.S. market if signs of stabilization in commodity prices and positive news from China start to emerge. Seven of the 10 main sectors on the index were in the red. Shares of energy producers gave back 0.4 percent despite a rise in the price of oil. In the group, Canadian Natural Resources Ltd was down almost 1 percent at C$32.68, and Suncor Energy Inc fell 0.4 percent to C$32.18. The materials sector, which includes mining stocks, was little changed as a jump in shares of gold miners was offset by weakness in Potash Corp. Potash, the world's biggest fertilizer producer, slipped 2.2 percent to C$40.39 and played the biggest role of any single stock in leading the index lower. It fell after rival fertilizer company Mosaic Co reported a lower quarterly profit on Tuesday as phosphate and potash prices slipped. Gold producers gained more than 1 percent, lifted by a higher bullion price. Barrick Gold Corp added 2 percent to C$16.01. Financials, the index's most heavily weighted sector, climbed 0.2 percent. Royal Bank of Canada, the country's biggest lender, advanced 0.4 percent to C$62.50.

text: By STEVE SZKOTAKRICHMOND, Va. (AP) â¿¿ Lawmakers from Southside Virginia want to meet with Gov. Bob McDonnell to outline their objections to a suggestion that he order the development of regulations for uranium mining even after the proposal to establish the industry was abandoned in the face of near certain defeat in the General Assembly. "Please do not ignore the will of the General Assembly," the two senators and four delegates wrote in a letter delivered to the governor's office this week. "To ignore the overwhelming opposition to uranium mining that has been expressed by citizens and organizations across the Commonwealth does not fit with representative government." McDonnell has not stated his position on uranium mining or whether he would push ahead on an issue the Legislature cast aside. His office did not immediately respond Friday to requests to comment on the written appeal. The letter was signed by Sens. Frank M. Ruff Jr. and William M. Stanley and Delegates James E. Edmunds, Donald Merricks, Danny Marshall III and Thomas C. Wright Jr., whose districts encompass counties, cities and towns near a uranium deposit that has sparked a years-long debate over a proposal to mine the radioactive ore. They cited a broad coalition that has taken a stand against uranium mining, in addition to the Legislature's tacit rejection of bills that would have cleared the way for mining. They also said locally elected officials have overwhelmingly opposed mining. The letter said Southside's economy is rebounding, despite chronically high rates of employment, and uranium mining would only stall further economic growth. "Our region will be economically damaged by this stigma hanging over our heads," the letter states. Virginia Uranium Inc. courted legislators for years in hopes of winning legislation in the 2013 session that would allow it to tap a 119-million-pound uranium deposit in Pittsylvania County. It values the ore at $7 billion and says it would create more than 300 well-paying jobs through the life of the mine.

I gently swirled some homemade jelly into the batter and created these luscious Blackberry Cheesecake Bars.
Cheesecake Bars with a Blackberry Swirl
I love making bars (you may have noticed a glut of them on this blog!). Only one or two trips to the oven instead of batch after batch as when baking cookies, and, voila, 25 dessert servings! I've made numerous cheesecake bars, but never one with jelly or jam swirled into the batter. It wasn't as daunting as you might imagine. I warmed the jelly slightly and whisked with a fork. Then I scooped it into a quart ziploc bag, clipped off a corner and piped 3 thick parallel lines across the surface of the cheesecake batter. I used an offset spatula and inserted it just a fraction of an inch deep and dragged it the length of the pan and looped back and forth creating this here look! Not classic marbling, but I like the way these turned out. The jam was a Christmas gift from a friend and I was thrilled to have a homemade version for this recipe.
Nothing But Options
No need to hunt down blackberry jelly or jam, just use what's in your fridge or pantry. The base of these cheesecake bars is a graham cracker crust, but I pondered whether to make one with vanilla wafers or Biscoff cookies. But, alas, my supply of those had dwindled. Feel free to add a bit of lemon oil or extract to your batter—the touch of citrus would be lovely with the berry swirl. Hope you find an occasion to try this splendid dessert.
- 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 6 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, room temperature
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- 1 egg
- 6 tablespoons blackberry jam or jelly
- Preheat oven to 350º. Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with non-stick foil (or use regular foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray). Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together crust ingredients and pat into bottom of baking pan. Bake for 6-8 minutes. Let cool.
- In a large bowl, with a hand mixer, blend together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add almond extract and egg and mix till combined. Pour over crust and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
- Place the jelly in a small bowl and microwave a few seconds, then with a fork or whisk, stir to soften. Place jelly in a quart sized Ziploc bag and cut off one corner to make a piping bag. Squeeze 3 parallel lines over filling, using all jam. Use the tip of an offset spatula or knife to pull back and forth through the surface without going too deep (you don't want to disturb the crust).
- Bake 15-20 more minutes until set. Cool, then chill before serving.

By Mel Antonen, USA TODAY
ALTOONA, Pa. Stephen Strasburg came into spring training hoping to land a job in the Washington Nationals rotation. But after getting his first professional win Sunday, he said he understood why the team sent him to the minor leagues.
"Absolutely," Strasburg said after getting the win in the Harrisburg (Pa.) Senators' 6-4 Class AA Eastern League win against the Altoona Curve at Blair County Ballpark.
"There are things I need to work on, things I need to improve on," he said. "Hopefully my time will come soon."
FIRST IMPRESSION: Three rookie pitchers debut in style
DAILY PITCH: Reds' Leake makes historic debut
Strasburg, 21, who signed a record $15.1 million contract after the Nationals made him the top pick in the draft in June, threw consistently in the high 90-mph range and hit 100 mph once while mixing in effective off-speed pitches.
With a packed house (7,887) watching, Strasburg retired the first two Curve batters he faced, but then Alex Presley hit a double off the right-field wall and scored on Miles Durham's single.
After that, Strasburg settled down and retired eight consecutive batters before walking Kris Watts with one out in the fourth inning.
Strasburg left after five innings because he had thrown 82 pitches, and Knorr said his pitch limit was between 85 and 90. Strasburg will have a similar pitch limit when he makes his next start, Friday at Harrisburg against New Britain (Conn.). The Senators said standing-room tickets remain available for that game.
Watts, a Pittsburgh Pirates catching prospect, was impressed with Strasburg.
"He definitely comes to the plate hot," Watts says. "There's no question he has a live arm. And when you see his fastball and offspeed pitches, it is easy to see he has elite stuff. He throws a great fastball, but his other pitches are good, too."
The game was live on ESPNews, at least part of it. The game was televised live when Strasburg was pitching but not when Curve pitcher Rudy Owens was on the mound.
Owens said he was excited the day before the game about being on TV, but when his dad told him only Strasburg's innings were going to be shown, Owens understood.
"Nobody cares about me," Owens told the Altoona Mirror.
For his part, Strasburg wouldn't mind some of the peace that Owens gets, but he understands the scrutiny that comes with a record contract. He hopes his story dies down.
"I just want to be another guy on the team," Strasburg said.

3. Mars: Young Volcanic Terrain
This region, the same size as the highlands area in slide #2, is on the north flank of the great volcano Elysium Mons, about 800 kilometers south-southeast of the Viking 2 lander site (slide #9). The channel of Hrad Vallis snakes northward (upward) from Elysium Mons. Detailed images show that the surface here is covered with lava flows. In contrast to the southern highlands, most of the northern hemisphere of Mars is young. It has relatively few impact craters because most ancient craters have been covered or erased by more recent geologic activity. For Mars, though, young might mean "only" 2 billion years old, compared to the 4 billion years of the southern highlands.
Lava flow fields like this would not have been thought good places to hunt for traces of martian life, but the martian meteorite ALH 84001 is a volcanic rock and it contains possible fossils. Primitive life grows abundantly in volcanic hot springs, like those at Yellowstone National Park. With this in mind, scientists have proposed searching for life in young volcanic terrains such as this one, in the hope of finding evidence of ancient hot springs or current subsurface thermal activity.

Good nutrition plays a central role in sustaining good health and preventing disease. That means eating organic foods free of GMO's and pesticides and rich in vitamins and minerals.
Research mounts daily in support of links between natural foods and their inherent cancer fighting abilities. The antioxidant properties in red wine and chocolate are linked to the prevention cancer.
A study conducted by the Ohio State University revealed that strawberries slow the development of precancerous lesions, and drinking coffee lowers the risk of prostate cancer.
Additionally, people who drink an anti-oxidant rich beverage have a lower increase in the production of homocysteine, the hormone believed to be responsible in Alzheimer's.
According to Natural News, pomegranate juice has already shown cytotoxicity (of or relating to substances that are toxic to cells) to a variety of cancer cell lines in lab studies.
Moreover, pre-clinical studies on lab animals show that oral feeding of pomegranate extract inhibits the growth of lung, skin, colon and prostate tumors.
"So compelling is the lab evidence that 10 clinical trials have been registered with the NIH to use pomegranate extract against cancer (nine trials on prostate cancer, one on follicular lymphoma)."
Pomegranate juice and three of its specific components have been shown to inhibit processes involved in prostate cancer metastasis.
Now according to recently published research, the components in pomegranate juice may be promising agents against breast cancer that can serve as potentially effective and nontoxic alternatives or adjuncts to the use of conventional selective estrogen receptor modulators for breast cancer prevention and treatment.
Researchers conclude that the components in pomegranate juice are inhibitory of metastatic processes in breast cancer cells in addition to prostate cancer cells and indicate that they are potentially a very effective treatment to prevent cancer progression in general.
Researchers at the University of California Riverside applied two different concentrations of pomegranate juice to breast cancer cell lines as well as to healthy cells.
Ethan Evers, author of the award-winning medical thriller "The Eden Prescription," summarized the results for Natural News:
"One percent juice completely stopped cancer cell growth in both cancer cell lines, while five percent juice stopped growth and also killed significant portions of the cancer cells.
"More importantly, even the one percent juice stimulated the expression of genes that suppressed the metastatic process in several ways. First, cancer cell adhesion was significantly increased, which is important in keeping the cancer cells clumped together so they don't invade neighboring tissues.
"Second, the ability of the cancer cells to migrate was significantly suppressed. Third, the chemical attraction of the cancer cells towards bones (chemotaxis to SDF1-alpha) was markedly decreased (thereby inhibiting bone metastases). Most impressive of all was that none of these effects were seen on the normal breast cells."

Best professional golf stories are often unseen
Dave Kindred, a preeminent American sports writer who has worked his trade for the better part of four decades, was walking down the right side of the first fairway at Kiawah Island with the final group at the PGA Championship when he mentioned he had been teaching a writing class to college students.
Like most great columnists, Kindred's strength is his power of observation, and he has tried to pass that along.
"The one thing I tell them," he said, "is that if you really pay attention to what you're covering, you'll see something you've never seen before."
That much was true in a wild year of golf.
Those have been well-documented. What follows is the 2012 edition of "Tales from the Tour," the obscure moments that keep golf so interesting and entertaining.
Kyle Stanley is a quiet man. This was a quiet celebration.
One week after he made triple bogey on the 18th hole at Torrey Pines and then lost in a playoff, he rallied from eight shots behind on the final day with a 65 in the Phoenix Open to win his first PGA Tour event.
Stanley was invited to a Super Bowl party that night at the home of Jim Mackay, the longtime caddie of Phil Mickelson. He was late to the party because of the media obligations that come with winning. When he finally arrived, Stanley knocked and then walked in the door holding the oversized winner's check over his head.
He quietly placed it above the TV and then sat down to watch the game, a player at peace.
No other golfer spends more time with the media after every round than Ryo Ishikawa, who is treated like a rock star in Japan. When he signs his card, even when it's late in the day, it's not unusual for the 21-year-old to spend close to an hour fulfilling his media obligations.
That's where "The Chair" comes in.
His handlers have a white folding chair for Ishikawa as he endures two interviews with different television stations. A dozen or so reporters form a semi-circle around him as they wait and listen, occasionally jotting down notes. Then, it's their turn. They spent close to 15 minutes with Ishikawa after his round at Innisbrook, going over the clubs he used and shots he hit on just about every hole — this after a 73 that left him 12 shots out of the lead.
Finally, he was finished. He got up from the chair and walked around the clubhouse toward the parking lot. The Japanese reporters followed him, walking in a group about 20 yards behind. One of them was asked where they were going.
"Now we wave goodbye," the reporter explained.
Indeed, they stood on a sidewalk and waved as Ishikawa's car drove by them.
You've seen the sign at the baggage claim to check your luggage because some bags may look alike. That goes for golf travel bags, too.
Nick Watney and Angel Cabrera arrived in San Francisco for the U.S. Open about the same time, on different flights. Cabrera kept waiting at oversized luggage for his bag to come out, and he began to think the airlines had lost it. There was only one golf bag there, and it belonged to Watney.
That's when the light came on.
Cabrera's agent called the person in charge of U.S. Open courtesy cars and asked them to stop Watney on his way out.
Sure enough, Cabrera's golf bag was in his trunk.
The British Open has a massive scoreboard in the press center where a group of volunteers, most of them women in their early 20s, move ladders on rails from side to side as they post the score of every hole for every player.
Press officers often check to see which players they should bring in for interviews in the first two rounds as the leaderboard is taking shape. In the second round, Adam Scott had a 67 to get within one shot of the lead with several players still on the course.
The announcement over the intercom: "Can we see a show of hands for Adam Scott?"
Six young women posting scores all raised their hands.
Doug Ferguson is a golf writer for the Associated Press.

Good value traditional small hotel in the lovely town of Nerac. Hotel owned by attentive young coupe who acquired it recently. Adjacent public parking. Nice breakfast in attractive dining room. Some may find the toilet and shower facilities a little quaint!
Friendly, helpful and professional couple running the hotel. The rooms are being renovated and are beautifully furnished. Always a pleasure to stay and I'm already looking forward to my next overnighting at Henri IV.
Breakfast is good. Staff is kind and helpful. Wi-Fi is terrible. Disconnections often occur.
This hotel is being done up by its owners who want to make a go of the hotel. The decoration and fittings are not good yet, but they will be in time. The price reflected this. The hotel is in the centre of Nerac which is a beautiful old town on the Baise. Lovely restaurants by the river
Lovely hotel and very good value for money, close to town centre & everything within walking distance. The young couple who own the hotel were excellent hosts and very helpful with local information.
Location is ideal in the country and peaceful and the welcome was charming. The food was nothing special apart from the starter
Atmospheric on the Compestela Pilgrim's route, opposite Larresingle medieval villiage and Chateau. Good simple meals.
Friendly arrival, Home cooking-simple. Basic but adequate room. Simple breakfast. Cheap overall. No other guests. Good view.
Well located hotel The breakfast was extremely poor for €6 a person. The room had a strange white powder falling on everything in the room all night. Spiders' webs all over the room. Cleanliness could have easily been improved.
a peaceful location, easy to find,comfortable bed,good for late afternoon sunshine outside.... the welcome was awful,there was dry rot in the ceiling over the bed,dropping residue on to the bed.The charge for the digestive for myself & wife at 16 euros was disgraceful.The breakfast was very ordinary for the price and the bread was stale...the "owner " who served breakfast was not welcoming...compared with lots of logis we have stayed in on this holiday.We were glad to leave,clearly not a Logis of France which has a good reputation.
I liked the location and the atmosphere the L'Auberge has
Excellent pool and pool garden. Friendly and efficient staff who like small children. Very good continental breakfast. No petty rules or officeous signs. The decor, carpets, lighting, furnishings, bathrooms are all tired, worn, rather shabby and outdated. It is like university student standard. It needs complete refurbishment. We think it maybe suits its normal clientel, but we need something fresher.
The staff were friendly and helpful when we asked for a fan. They spoke very good English which is a bonus when my French is not so good! The room was hot and had one small window. The bathroom had a shower over the bath hung up on the wall but there was no shower curtain. The rooms had had a revamp but this was just paint and new curtains. They need new bathroom suites and dressing tables. Despite this the room was clean.
Professional run hotel, no restaurent, but easy walk into town. Comfortable and well priced. Difficult to find on the map.
Friendly, bilingual, knowledgeable, helpful staff Could use a work over
The ambiance and owners, peaceful. Shower unit needs modernising
Friendy staff, convenient location, bqasic but comfortable room
Excellent welcome from the staff who could not have been more welcoming and helpful. No
Excellent location Nothing
Relaxed atmosphere The price of the poor quality breakfast, which was only availble to be eaten in bedroom. We only ordered this once in view of our inital experence.
The location was very convenient. I did think it was marginal in terms of value for money when compared with other accommodation used on this holiday, Lack of air conditioning or even a fan on what was an extremely hot night.
Wonderful place to stay. Excellent value for money. Friendly and helpful owners and staff.
The setting and the architecture of the hotel is like stepping back into the Middle Ages. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The restaurant at the hotel serves dishes and wines of the region that are cooked and served to perfection. Anyone coming to this region must experience this hotel as there are so few that rival The Chateau de Fources for service and the overall experience.
Fantastic location, excellent cuisine and service
The staff were excelent, friendly and helpful. The dinner was also excellent in terms of cooking quality, choice and the very knowledgable wine waiter. I would go back to eat here. The location is quiet and the terrace and breakfast room could be great but are "tired" The rooms and the general decor are in need of serious refurbishment, my room had been recently repainted but in all seriousness the entire building needs a significant anount of money spending on it, much more than repainting. The location is good but this does not feel like a 3 star hotel despite the best efforts of the owners.
Very peaceful place and complaisant people.
The wonderful greeting and help we had from the lady in charge . Was she the owner?We spoke little French and she spoke little English but we got on so well. Even sharing jokes when things got a bit muddled.We cannot praise her enough for making us feel so comfortable and welcome. Unfortunately we had to leave early on the day of our departure and did not have a chance to thank her personally, perhaps you can do that for us. Finding it. Our confirmation letter said 24 Avenue Des Thermes, Cazaubon. We drove round and round and asked several people who did not know and somehow we were directed to Barbotan Les Thermes.When we saw the hotel we thought it must be another hotel with a somilar name because it seemed a long way from Cazaubon. Fortunately it was the right hotel and Madame greeted us so very warmly.
The communal areas were bright and airy and the fire in the lounge was a nice feature. Our bedroom was cleaned fantastically every day. The decor and furniture in the room is a little dated.
country location, peaceful and quiet. secure car park. lovely small town,
Accessability to town buy foot. Own secure carpark. Pleasant and very helpful staff, cleanliness of all rooms. Breakfast was minimal for the money. Croissant only available on request.
location, quietness, We couldn't get the hot water enough warm to take a bath and we caught a slight cold.
Secure parking and situation of Barbotan itself.
My daughter liked Shippy the dog, the swimming pool was lovely and the hotel was right in the town and next to the spa treatment centre. Very quiet and traffic free. The zombies going for their treatment at the spa every morning!! Summoned by the loud bell.
Excellent food available in the restaurant and the hotel's location k
Excellent location in the centre of a spa resort, convenient to all amenities Run down feel , evidence of poor maintainance in facilities, spartan rooms, very poor breakfast. Very low staffing levels.

The other string is not at the beginning of a line. Remove the ^. Also, a dot is a special character in regexes. Backslash it to match literally. You do not need the replaced numbers - no need for capturing parentheses. You do not want the third and fourth numbers to be replaced - you can achieve this by requiring a dot after the numbers to be replaced:

|You are in: World: Middle East
Saturday, 27 April, 2002, 23:24 GMT 00:24 UK
Gaza's angry children
Their aim was to break through the heavily guarded security fencing of the settlement, but they did not even get close.
The three boys knew their mission was probably going to end this way; they had left suicide notes for their families explaining their decision to seek "martyrdom".
At Salaha Edeen school where the three teenagers were studying, staff and pupils alike expressed their shock and anger.
"They were intelligent, active kids," the headmaster, Basil Alwahidi, told me, "and they go and do something like this".
One wall of the headmaster's office is taken up with wreaths of flowers, each sent with a message of condolence from other Gaza schools.
Mohamad used to sit next to Ismail Abu Nadi in class, now he sits alone.
"I had no idea he would do something like this," says Mohamad. "He was my friend. He used to say he wanted to be a doctor when he grew up - maybe a surgeon - but now he's dead.
"I think what happened in Jenin made him angry - it's made us all angry and it pushes us to do something".
Worrying trend
The problem is there is very little that 14-year-old boys can do. And perhaps it is that sense of powerlessness which is driving young Palestinians to such desperate, and ultimately futile gestures.
The main Islamic militant group, Hamas, is so concerned about the situation that it has issued a statement calling on Palestinian children not to waste their precious blood.
"Too many young lives lost at the fences of Israeli settlements," the statement reads, "would be a catastrophe for the future of the Palestinian struggle."
Hamas has appealed to teachers and religious leaders to use their influence to persuade children that, rather than becoming young martyrs, they can help build a future Palestinian state by studying to becoming doctors, lawyers and engineers.
Temptation remains
Militant groups are not ruling out the possibility of more suicide missions in the future. But such operations, they say, should carried out by "properly trained" adults.
The question though is whether the call for restraint will be heard and understood by young Palestinians.
Back at Salaha Edeen school I asked the class of 14-year-old boys whether any of them were tempted to follow the example of their friends - Youssef, Ismail and Anwar.
My question was met with a long silence; then a shy boy, fiddling with the collar of his blue school uniform, spoke up.
"Maybe one day" he said, "when I'm older, I too will become a martyr."

British Film Institute Events
Lagos to London: A Nollywood Masterclass
Join this special event to learn about the world's third-largest
moving picture industry, the Nollywood phenomenon! Growing out of Nigeria's
declining celluloid film industry in the 80s, Nollywood relied on low-budget
production and local video distribution. As it grew, its films related
to a much wider pan-African audience and, more recently, to worldwide
diaspora communities. Professor Duro Oni from the University of Lagos
Creative Arts School considers its historical context, and acclaimed directors
Tunde Kelani and Amaka Igwe present extracts from their work and discuss
its unique production and distribution.
Nollywood Screenings
In advance of this special event, we're also offering a unique opportunity to sample the latest drama productions from the two directors who'll be discussing their work and its contexts:
Images of Another Day
The Narrow Path
Both screenings are free, but tickets must be booked in advance. To reserve your place, call the Box Office on (020) 7928 3232.
Nollywood Conversations
Held Friday 13 July 2007
The conversation on the topic 'Nollywood and Identity' lasted from 5pm to 7pm. There were 8 participants:
Peter Badejo (OBE) CEO Badejo Arts
Nollywood Foundation Convention
Nollywood Foundation, Inc's 2007 Convention, "Nollywood: Emerging Talents and Technologies." We are excited that you will be joining us in Los Angeles from June 15 - 17, 2007. At the convention, we hope to contribute to addressing two main issues relating to the Nigerian film industry ("Nollywood"): Maximizing the Footprint of Nollywood in the Global Arena and Enhancing Technical Quality in Nollywood.

When Jerry Pike's Lodi home was burglarized a couple weeks ago, he became yet another of many such recent victims.
The culprits had struck during the day, when many people are off at work, and made off with such things as jewelry and a computer. Pike had a feeling he would never get his belongings back, but he fought back the only way he knew: He made fliers and passed them out to all his neighbors, urging them to keep an eye out and prevent more people from becoming victims.

Take a Spin with Spider-Man and Hobgoblin in the Latest 'Shattered Dimensions' Screen
For those of you with motion sickness, pop some Dramamine because you're not gonna want to miss this — Activision and developer Beenox have released an all-new 360 screen cap from "Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions" showing off the games sure-to-impress 3D world of the 2099 dimension (joining "Amazing" and "Noir" shots)
For the regulars here at CA, you've already seen plenty of in-game screen grabs and downloadable skins for our Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man's latest button-mashin' adventure. However, with this latest screen, we not only get to see just how deep Spidey's brave new world goes, but look closely and you'll also catch a glimpse of a main villain — the 2099 version of the Hobgoblin. Just be prepared, because it's a 360-degrees look that spins like a whirling dervish (and we all know how fast those dervishes tend to spin).Need a quick catch-up? Written by Dan Slott, "Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions" (set to hit stores on Sept. 7 for all major consoles as well as the Nintendo DS) follows Spider-Man across four different realities — Earth-616 (i.e. the mainstream Marvel Universe), Marvel's "Noir" world, and the futuristic 2099 landscape (the fourth world has yet to be revealed), where he'll take on the likes of Kraven the Hunter, the Green Goblin, Hobgoblin and Hammerhead in order to retrieve the shattered Tablet of Order and Chaos.

Cactus, kak′tus, n. an American plant, generally with prickles instead of leaves.
In spite of his efforts, Ivan could not get much further than the "kak vam skazat'?"
One of them was called kak, the male of males, or the bull of bulls.
The prefixed syllable, kak, may be derived from Kukidjewum, a rapid stream.
Even to this day when the camp is being removed the raven flies over and shouts kak!
If so, the word equivalent must be kak, as it is seemingly a variant of ik, and hence may be supposed to have the k sound.
kak-(ši) is no doubt to be read epši, as Langdon correctly saw; or perhaps better, epiši.
In the archaic linear form, kak is a triangle with one of the angles pointing to the right.
Raven kept calling to someone that he had forgotten his kak—forgotten the lower blanket of deerskin used for a bed.

I had Fraxel Repair on my face, Active FX on my neck, and Portrait Plasma on my chest 3 days ago. I got what I expected on my face and neck, but my chest is very blotchy, dark red, has burns, and itches. I have been doing the soaks and vasaline as instructed. How long will it take for my chest will take to look normal? Will it ever look normal again without scarring?
Blotchy Skin, Burns, and Itching After Portrait on Chest
Doctor Answers 1
See your doctor
You must see your doctor to ensure that your healing is on schedule. They need to evaluate what you mean by "burns". It's normal to be blotchy, both red and brown and itching is common. But if there is a bright red very itchy firm area, this could be a situation that warrants attention to prevent scarring. The chest has a higher risk of scarring than the face. Portrait Plasma works very well for most patients and you may not have any problem to worry about but please call your doctor to be seen in the next few days.

As a first time offender, it is not likely that she would go to jail. If anything, she would be looking at a probationary sentence of 12-24 months, fines, court costs and restitution, if any. She could also ask the court if they have a diversion program for her to enter into, to try and get the case dismissed so it does not appear on her record. She would have to inquire about it at her next court appearance.

The red carpet at last night's rain-sodden premiere of The Great Gatsby was full of finger waves, fringing and red lips. Despite the cold, despite the rain, Sydney's A-list put their best flapper forward for a film that this writer absolutely loved.
Yes, it was big, yes, there was lots of glitter but Lurhmann manages to retain the beauty and melancholy of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic story paired with a Jay Z soundtrack.
Without pointing any fingers there's a lesson to be learned from last night's fashion fails. One bead or feather too many and you're a short ride from looking like an extra from Boardwalk Empire. The trick to making the 1920s trend modern is adapting one element – fringing, head piece, rope of pearls – into a sleek, 2013 silhouette.
The best fashion of the evening was on screen. This is Catherine Martin's greatest work. From the gowns to the tuxedos, every outfit was a visual treat. Watch out for all the clever touches - the Daisy signet ring worn by DiCaprio, the JG monogram on everything and the incredible Tiffany jewellery.
