Kevin Drum of Mother Jones today wonders how the right-wing speculation of a Benghazi cover-up makes even "a lick of sense," and so he may want to hear what conspiracy theorists and conservative activists Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy and Jerry Boykin of the Family Research Council have to say. The two were leading authors of the 2010 "Team B II Report: Sharia: the Threat to America" [PDF], about how the implementation of Sharia law in the U.S. due to high-level Islamist infiltration is imminent, if not already occurring, and are now pushing claims that the Benghazi incident was all part of a pro-Sharia scheme to limit free speech in the U.S. and even aid terrorists.
Gaffney argued in the Washington Times that the initial reaction to the Benghazi attack proves that the State Department is "committed to the Shariah blasphemy agenda" and in an interview with Sandy Rios of the American Family Association, he maintained that the Obama administration wanted to cover up "secret arm shipments" to Al Qaeda. Of course he began his inflammatory remarks by stating, "I don't know the truth just yet.
Boykin also alleged that the government was "trying to cover up" a scheme in Benghazi to "funnel weapons and material to Syrian rebels"…before adding, "now, I don't know that that's the case."

Harry O'Brien has always invested himself, absolutely, in everything he has done. Before he was a footballer he was willing to pay his own way to Melbourne, train with Collingwood and do his best to win a spot on the rookie list. His persistence helped his club find a premiership player.
As a footballer, O'Brien has worn his heart on his sleeve from day one. He has always had a deep social conscience, and felt compelled to express himself. He has always wanted to go places, see things with his own eyes and bring them to the attention of others. He cares about HIV-infected orphans in Africa because he has met and spent time with them.
At times, he has been portrayed as almost too much of a good guy. As if one day he is doing things he doesn't have to do, reminding the world that footballers aren't all bad, and then the next day is just a footballer again. Either way, he has always done much more than merely attach his name to charities and causes. ''The only thing you can accuse Harry of is caring too much about everything that he does,'' was how his teammate Dale Thomas saw things last week. ''If that's the worst trait you've got, you're going all right.''
It is for these reasons that O'Brien deserves what he has now requested: the chance to deal with what sounds like some distressing issues without constant questioning. His absence from Collingwood's team last week became a story because he is in the best Collingwood team, because it was not fully explained and because he took time off.
It was also reflective of an industry, the media, that has grown, that is competitive, that wants to know more and more, and where an opinion that says ''just wait …'' is not really considered an opinion, or enough of one. It happened at a time where social media has given many more people than those in the traditional media a voice, often a harsh one. Ironically, the question most of the speculation seemed to ask, ''He walked out over that?'' That has now answered itself.
It was hard to watch O'Brien talk about the things on his mind when he turned up to train again on Tuesday. It's sad, if inevitable, to think that this time next week everyone will be asking whether he's going to play football again on the weekend. O'Brien is surrounded by friends and at a club that will be looking after him, and only he can judge what he should and shouldn't be affected by.
Equally it is up to him to sort things out, because while football clubs aren't normal places of employment, only he can know whether he can get on with things at Collingwood now or whether he needs to step away for longer.
But he is also a good reminder the footballers we watch, scream at, stick up for and boo for two hours on a weekend are just people, who have things going on in their lives that we often don't know about.

| Dear members of the FDA,
Psychiatric medications which are promoted so heavily to consumers via every conceivable form of media are using false and misleading information to create more consumers. We are talking about dangerous, mind-altering drugs; many of which have just received 'Black Box Warnings' for their potential to cause mania and suicide. There is no scientific evidence to support the statement that depression is the result of a 'chemical imbalance.' There are no tests, no scans, and no genetic or biological markers to truly validate any underlying condition. Insinuating that a biological condition exists and that a specific drug 'corrects' the condition is not only false but fraudulent.

I have a tooth that had a root canal many years ago. It now has decay under the gum. My dentist says I can get braces to pull what is left of my tooth down and then cap it or extract the tooth and get an implant. Suggestions...
Tooth With Decay Under Gums, Do I Need Braces or Implants?
Doctor Answers 12
Cavities in roots
before the dental implant in dentistry, what your dentist has suggested was one of the few solutions. today with the high successs rate of dental implants, it a way much better solution for your problem. now, if your tooth is highly aesthetic, probably it wouldn't be a bad idea to do what your dentist suggested which we call forced eruption and than pull your tooth and replace it with a dental implant. the benefit of such a thing, you can bring more bone and soft tissue to the are which it was lost due to the inflammation caused by your cavity under the gum.
Implant Vs Crown
In the particular case you are describing, I would personally choose the implant over the orthodontics and crown. The deciding factor for me would be the long term solution that the implant offers.
Implant or orthodontic extrusion
Your dentist has been commendably thorough in giving you the two best options. Having had experience with both procedures I would recommend the implant. There are a few reasons why: 1) the tooth may not come down even if you use braces to putt it, 2) It may have a tendancy to get sucked back up after it has come down, 3) If the extrusion is successful, there may be a high liklihood that you will get decay on the root surface again. Old root canal teeth become dry and brittle and vulnerable to decay. I believe the implant is the most predicatable long-term sloution and most cost effective.

Decayed tooth
I would suggest to get an implant versus orthodontics.We can try with braces to move the tooth, however that is a long term procedure for one thing. Then the tooth is already compromised having a root canal for a while. This option with braces might have more chances of failure than implant.
You have to compare the prices. Braces versus implant.
Implant or Forced eruption to save root for crown.
First question is "do you need or want some orthodontic treatment anyway due to some other crooked teeth and cosmetic issues that could be improved by orthodontics." If you do, then including the forced eruption in the orthodontic treatment might be a good option to save the cost of the implant if the tooth being erupted is in reasonably good condidtion otherwise and will be a good base for a crown. If you have absolutely no need for braces anywhere else in the mouth, then it may be faster, easier, and more cost effective, to just go ahead with the implant. In any event, if you put in the implant, you will tend to "lock In" whatever orthodontic issues that are there now because the implant can not be moved later. The tooth root probably could be moved some later if needed but it would be best to make your final decision about orthodontics now. If Orthodontic treatment is never going to be done, go for the implant. Taking a CT scan of the implant site can also be helpful if there are any qestions about the tooth root or the bone support available.
Braces or implant
For your particular case both choices would work but many factors play in your decision. WIth the option to use braces to pull the tooth down you may end up with a nice result but have a tooth that has a long term questionable prognosis. If you decide to have the tooth removed and an implant placed you will probably spend a few dollars more but have a longer lasting solution. Long term the cheaper option will be the implant because implants are 97% successful
Good luck with whatever decision you make
Orthodontics or Implant to treat root damage
All the dentists that have responded are correct in stating that it is a consideration of length of duration of treatment desired. Cost and patient health could also be issues. Also aesthetics and root length and shape. Your dentist needs to look at the options and give you the details of your particular situation. He can involve a root canal specialist and /or an orthodontist to get more specific information. Research well your options as the answer will be specific to you. Good Luck!
Its all about Predictabililty
In the "old days" of dentistry, we tried our best to save every tooth. Wih the invention of root form dental implants that has all changed and in today's world, many times we choose to remove a questionable tooth in favor of placing a more predictable and long-term solution; that is, an implant. Your dentist is correct in giving you options and both are viable. My experience in this situation is that the implant will give you a more esthetic and long-lasting solution to your problem. Be sure to select an experienced surgeon as this implant is in a highly esthetic zone and needs to be placed properly for a good outcome.
Good Luck!!
Implant or Braces
With the scenario you describe, I would definitely say the implant option will be more predictable and long lasting. Sounds like the tooth you would be trying to save is already compromised and even if orthodontics is successful and a new crown is placed, the root has a significant chance of fracturing over time.
Implants are often the best choice in the big picture
In the short term, orthodontically extruding the tooth for a new crown can work. It just won't last as long as other options, perhaps only a few years (the result will be a shorter root, so a weaker foundation). The most predictable and longest lasting option, and cheaper in the long run, is the dental implant.

What to know before you renovate
Anyone who has renovated before warns you that home renovation can be a soul destroying and costly journey. Throughout the renovation, you will learn along the way about what you would do differently next time, but not until after you have gone way over budget and the original time schedule has blown out by months. And sometimes, the end result is somewhat substandard to your initial expectations.
Rather than rely on learning on the job, a one day workshop at RenovationFix might just be what you need to arm yourself with understanding the key 'do's and don'ts' of home renovation, before taking the plunge. With nine presentations from carefully chosen building, design and industry experts each day, the potential savings in time and money, and knowing where and who to turn to at certain stages throughout the renovation, should prove a worthwhile investment.
SmartStone was the obvious choice for high quality indoor surfaces. With a stunning new range of engineered quartz for a range of applications, SmartStone offers the Australian market quartz surfaces of the finest quality and style. Each participant at a RenovationFix workshop will receive a industry presentation that will arm participants with key information to tackle all surfaces; from kitchen countertops to bath and shower surrounds.
The RenovationFix website details the topics covered at each event, complete with overviews of the presenters. There are four one-day workshop programs available, structured to suit all home renovators, from the novice to the most seasoned renovator, from 'Getting Started', 'Latest Trends & Directions' 'All About Kitchens' and 'All About Bathrooms'.
Other industry presenters include Dulux, Fisher & Paykel, HPM Legrand, Di Lorenzo, Hettich and more. Each workshop will be held at the Coco Republic Design Centre in Alexandria, from 9am to 4pm.
These workshops will give you information on how to achieve your dream renovation. For more information, visit www.renovationfix.com.au or call 1300 818 558.
RenovationFix is an initiative of Coco Republic.

After years of waiting, Tulane fans can start mapping out fall calendars for college football in Uptown New Orleans.
The Green Wave released its full schedule Tuesday for the program's inaugural season in the new Yulman Stadium. Tulane will play its six home games on campus for the first time since 1974.
After 16 years in Conference USA, Tulane is moving to the American Athletic Conference.The Green Wave opens the season Aug. 30 at Tulsa. Tulane will face seven teams who appeared in bowl games a year ago: Georgia Tech, Duke, Rutgers, Central Florida, East Carolina and Cincinnati.
"This is a very demanding and challenging schedule, but one we will be prepared to play," Tulane coach Curtis Johnson said.
"I am looking forward to stepping foot in our new stadium on Sept. 6 and cannot wait to start league play. This is going to be a fantastic league with great teams and will quickly be considered one of the best in the country."
The Green Wave, off its first bowl appearance since 2002, will host a season finale (against Temple) for the first time since 2004. Tulane will have three bye weeks: Oct. 4, Oct. 25 and Nov. 29.
The Oct. 25 bye breaks up a three-game stretch against the league's best teams, coming between a road date at Central Florida and consecutive games against Cincinnati and at Houston.
The Green Wave's home game against Cincinnati on Friday, Oct. 31,will be shown on either ESPN2 or ESPNU.
Premium tickets are available for purchase but require an annual donation of at least $1,500 per seat to the Tulane Athletics Fund.

Leading coal seam gas company
Arrow will take 14,800 square metres of space over eight years with a further 3000 sq m option in what is the largest premium office space deal on record for the city.
Chief executive Andrew Faulkner said that Arrow's consolidation out of four separate Brisbane buildings would improve business efficiency and communication as the company moved towards a final investment decision on its major gas project.
"Leasing 10 floors with an option for a further three in Brisbane's premier new commercial building will allow us to continue to grow with confidence," Mr Faulkner said.
Arrow will take floors 31 to 40 and move in next year – in the leasing deal foreshadowed by The Australian Financial Review – after vacating its existing premises at AM60 on Albert Street.
GPT chief executive
"In early 2010 the Brisbane market began signalling a number of blue- chip companies would require more than 10,000 sq m of premium office space from around 2013," he said.
"We have always believed that the tower was the only solution for large, contiguous, quality space in Brisbane."
Colliers International's Matt Kearney and Jones Lang LaSalle's Mark Curtain negotiated the deal, which has demonstrated just how quickly the resource-backed city's office market has recovered.
The city's office vacancy rate has dropped to 6.2 per cent from more than 11 per cent at the beginning of 2011.
Demand from the resources sector is expected to continue, with Treasury forecasting royalty receipts will surge to $6.1 billion in the next decade from $2.6 billion now.
However, according to JLL statistics, the average percentage take-up in the city and fringe attributable to the resources sector was just 23 per cent during the past four years.
"The tower does have a strong influence from the resources sector, but the majority of tenants are from the financial services, banking and legal sector," Mr Curtain said.
Tenants for the 54-storey tower, which is due for practical completion next week, include Ernst & Young, ANZ Banking Group and law firms Norton Rose Australia and Gadens.
GPT's national director for leasing, Luke Briscoe, said the deal would be a "game changer" for the Brisbane market with very few contiguous spaces available for tenants.
Mr Kearney agreed that the deal would have a major impact on the office market because the tower had the last large contiguous vacancy available.
The largest contiguous A-grade space available in Brisbane now is ANZ's former premises at DEXUS and Brookfield's jointly owned 324 Queen Street.

I am doing a seminar on the subject run by the Australian Society of Authors next week so perhaps I'll feel more confident about going ahead with publishing it then.

SAM Wood believes Wycombe Wanderers can start looking upwards in League Two in the second half of the season.
Things started brightly for Wanderers as they got off to a winning start at newly-promoted York before a barren run saw them plunge into the relegation places.
Manager Gary Waddock was axed after picking up just one win from the Chairboys' first eight games in a disastrous start to the 2012-13 campaign.
Gareth Ainsworth, a firm favourite with the fans, was promoted to player-boss at the start of the November and has turned around the club's fortunes since then.
The former QPR winger has lifted Wanderers out of the drop zone after a five-game unbeaten run that started after a defeat at Wood's old side Rotherham.
Wood was delighted the Wycombe board chose a familiar face to lead the club out of danger and believes Ainsworth has got the Chairboys back on track.
He said: "Luckily it wasn't someone totally new coming in and Gaz had worked with us in pre-season so he knew what we could and couldn't do. He has drilled in his way of playing and it's starting to pay off now.
"The aim at the start of the season was promotion. The start we made wasn't great and now we just take each game as it comes. We're looking up but we don't want to aim too high – if we do make it then that'll be a bonus.
"The league is definitely stronger this year. A lot more clubs have got a lot more money to spend and that means stronger teams. My old club Rotherham have got a new manager and spent a lot of money for example."
Wycombe's home game with Bradford fell victim to the weather at the weekend in a widespread washout that saw only two League Two games go ahead.
Ainsworth's boys were due to travel to Cheltenham yesterday [Wednesday] and face another long trip to Plymouth on Saturday.

WWII radiation has vet eyeing return home for treatment
Alvin R. Kalicki, 89
Hometown: Buffalo
Residence: Pinellas Park, Fla.
Branch: Army
War zone: World War II, Pacific Theater
Years of service: 1943–1946
Rank: private 1st class
Most prominent honors: Bronze Star, Asiatic-Pacific Medal, Philippines Liberation Ribbon
Specialty: litter bearer
By Lou Michel
News Staff Reporter
When he wasn't shooting at the enemy in the various battles fought on the islands in the Pacific Ocean during World War II, Alvin R. Kalicki helped the battle-injured troops by carrying them to safety on stretchers.
"We'd take the wounded to first aid stations or to the beaches and put them on the landing crafts that took them out to the ships," Kalicki recalled of his duty in battles at New Guinea, New Britain and the Philippines.
In order to reach those felled by the enemy, Kalicki and other litter bearers sometimes would have to fight their way to them, he said. "The enemy was always around and you'd shoot to scatter them."
And though he escaped battlefield wounds, he lost 50 percent of his hearing from the massive shells fired overhead from U.S. battleships seeking to destroy the enemy as troops stormed the beaches.
"The exploding shells would make me deaf for awhile," he said, adding that he was grateful to be spared becoming a victim of friendly fire. "None of the shells landed on me, but they were pretty close."
Yet this mayhem was merely a warm-up for what Kalicki and other soldiers witnessed when the war in the Pacific ended. In the weeks and months after the world's first atomic bombs were dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively on Aug. 6, 1945, and Aug. 9, 1945, troops were ordered into the areas to help in the cleanup.
"When we went to those cities, it was one big mess. Buildings were flattened, streets were torn up and there were bodies still around," Kalicki said "The smell of death was terrible. It was our job to remove bodies, putting them on trucks so they could be taken away.
None of the soldiers, he said, were given protective gear to shield them from the lingering radiation.
"All we had were our steel helmets. We weren't given gloves. We worked with our bare hands," he said.
For years, it seemed as if he had escaped the perils of radiation, but about 10 years ago, Kalicki came down with cancer – first of the prostate, then of the throat.
"I figure the cancer was the result of working in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I was probably over there about a month," Kalicki, 89, said. "I received treatment at the VA's Bay Pines Hospital in St. Petersburg. I have good days and bad days. My voice is hoarse and I'll have coughing spells and I urinate frequently."
Now Kalicki wants to move back to Buffalo, believing he will get better and quicker medical treatment at the Buffalo VA.
"From what I hear, thousands of other veterans are moving to Florida and I don't know how the VA will be able to care for all of them," Kalicki said.
He is so determined to return north that he and his wife, the former Florence Loszka, have put their house in the St. Petersburg area up for sale.
In fact, he and his family members hope that if someone reading this story knows of individuals looking to relocate to Florida, they will reach out and consider buying the Kalickis' home in the Sunshine State. Anyone interested can contact Kalicki's son Kevin at his email address, firstname.lastname@example.com.
In fact, Alvin Kalicki says he is even looking forward to again experiencing Buffalo-Niagara winters.
"Do you know it has been 14 years since I have seen snow," he said of his eagerness to return to his native roots.

A similar Marc Jacobs dress was worn by Blair on Gossip Girl last year, but it flew off the shelves faster than most could track it down. Marc has brought back a lovely metallic lace dress for fall and it is absolutely a must-have.

Marc by Marc Jacobs does it again! This it yet another beautiful cocktail dress. I really like the black ruffle at the bottom of the dress and the allover print on the dress. The lace is the cherry on top of this incredibly fabulous dress!
AmandaGayle's recommendation
The only thing cooler than a lacy dress is a metallic lacy dress... and this one is just that! It's so very Blair Waldorf, with it's simple girlishness and elegant feel. Great for fall nights and winter parties... and oh so adorable.

Browns CEO Joe addressed the state of the team today following a news conference in which the organization unveiled its plans for renovations to FirstEnergy Stadium. Below are some of the highlights from Banner's discussion about the football side.
On the Browns having a 4-5 record and getting ready to visit the AFC North-leading Cincinnati Bengals (6-4) for a crucial game Sunday: "I think we're super excited. We're playing well and we're playing hard and having games that matter. I think you've all heard me talk about all year the things that I think most are important right now and you look at those things and the way the team keeps playing and the systems are getting installed under a new coach, and I think it's basis to be encouraged and I think it's a lot of fun to participate in the game and we're confident we're going to play hard and play good. They're a good team, and I think we're starting to establish ourselves as a competitive team, so it will be a fun afternoon."
On the strong performances of quarterbacks Jason Campbell and Brian Hoyer, both of whom entered this season as backups to Brandon Weeden: "When we were asked at training camp, we said we felt good about all three guys, and it's not often you get to your second or third quarterback. So it's a testament to the coaches and a testament to the players who are working hard and playing hard and really implementing what they're being asked to do. So I think it's all very encouraging both short-term and long-term."
On whether the strong performances of Campbell and Hoyer this season could keep the Browns from picking a quarterback in the early in the 2014 draft: "I think we're going to have to get to the end of the season and see exactly where we are. Our commitment to the draft is to try and pick and the best players we can as opposed to trying to force anything at any positions. So I think we've got a lot left to learn as the season goes on in terms of finding what we want to do and where the strengths of the draft are."
On how great of a problem it would be for the Browns to have Hoyer come back really healthy from his torn ACL early on and for Campbell to continue to play well: "I don't think I'd use the word 'problem' in that sentence. Listen, you want to have as many good players as you can and the more good players you have at the most important positions, the better you are. Whether they're assets or whether they become part of the long-term plan, that can only be a good thing."
On Campbell's performances in the past two games: "I think he's played well. He's played hard. He's played smart. He's played very determined. It's clear the players around him are responding well to him. I think he's living up to or exceeding expectations. It's great to see."
On whether the Browns are comfortable with proceeding with two healthy quarterbacks, Campbell and Weeden, for rest of this season: "I think we're evaluating that week by week, and so far we've been deciding that we're OK doing that."
On Weeden's future: "When we get to January and we've got all the information from the whole season, all those kinds of questions, I don't want to isolate it just to the quarterback position, we've got a lot of areas of the team that are in an evaluative stage. When we get to January, we'll sit down and discuss where we're at."
On the job Rob Chudzinski has done so far in his first season as an NFL head coach: "Hard pressed to think that in nine weeks a first-time head coach can do any better or any more than he's doing. All of the measurables that you'd look to come up with, if you even wanted to create a yardstick of measuring at this moment, I just think he's doing an outstanding job."
On scouting college quarterbacks: "Everybody involved in personnel is working hard on scouting all of the players available. I don't want to isolate it to a position. We've got scouts out all over the country. We've got a number of people in the offices that are working hard every day, gathering character information and watching film and writing up reports. We're going to be very, very prepared when we get to April and May. We're going to be very, very prepared."
On if the 2014 quarterback class is as great as most people assume it is: "It's too early to say that. I think there's a number of prospects out there. It's too early to say what the storytelling versus the eventual assessments are going to be."
On if he still believes the 2014 draft would be better than the 2013 draft: "I was optimistic that that was the case. I think from what we're seeing that I still believe this is going to be a draft that is going to a fairly strong draft. It's too early to say that conclusively, but the optimism we had about that in April, I'd say we're even more optimistic now."
On how trading running back Trent Richardson to the Indianapolis Colts is panning out: "This may prove to be a foolish statement because I know what's happened so far. I did that trade thinking that our team and their team were in totally different places and this would be a trade that legitimately would work well for both teams. I still think that's true, even though I understand at the moment it doesn't look that way. I didn't worry about the criticism that came at the time. I'm sure [Colts General Manager] Ryan Grigson isn't worried about the criticism now. I'm confident we were in a different place than they were. It made sense for them to do what they did. It made sense for us to do what we did. I still think over time that's what the history will show."
On the Browns' struggles in the running game: "We traded Richardson and [Montario] Hardesty and [Dion] Lewis got hurt. When you make those moves and injuries happen at the same position, then you tend to have a position you're working hard to put together to get it to work. That's what's happened there."
On how close did the Browns come to trading wide receiver Josh Gordon: "Not isolating on Josh, at the trade deadline [in October] we had offers on players. We listened. We decided we were better off having the players than the offers we got and moved forward with them."
On if he's confident Gordon won't violate the NFL's substance-abuse policy again: "I'm confident Josh is doing a great job and working hard and doing everything that's asked of him and expected of him. I know the coaches really feel good about everything and that gives us confidence and willingness to stay supportive of him and counting on him."
On whether he's worried about owner Jimmy Haslam's legal stemming from the Pilot Flying J fraud scandal: "I'm not concerned about it, other than my personal relationship with him and my feelings about that. But from the beginning, I've said we've been able to do anything and everything we've intended to do with the Browns. It's had no impact. It will have no impact, and I think we're proving that as we do different things, including what we announced today [about stadium enhancements], to be the truth."
On the play of rookie outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo, the sixth overall pick in this year's draft: "You see realistic expectations for what really good players do in their first year. I think he's done a good job. I think he's working hard. The coaches are pleased with him, but you want to see your young guys continue to develop especially between year one and two and year two and three. That's the point where you really know what you have, but I think when you evaluate what he's done so far, you feel really good about it."
On if the Browns need more sacks from their prized free-agent acquisition, outside linebacker Paul Kruger: "We said this when we signed him. You always want sacks. Sacks impact the game. But the reality is pressures, hits, moving guys off their spots and making a guy throw the ball away on a third down have a big impact on the game. We feel good about the way Paul is playing. At the same time, with all our guys, the more sacks you can get, those are plays that really have an impact on the game."

Call for papers - Seminar No. 14.
"Must I remember?": Trauma and Memory in Early Modern England
Seminar Leaders
Margaret Healy (University of Sussex, UK) and
Rebecca Totaro (Florida Gulf Coast University, USA)

As he recalls his mother's affection for his deceased father, Hamlet suffers from a
memory that he cannot dislodge. "Let me not think on't," he exclaims, but he

consumption national, personal, and imaginary dramas of suffering. This seminar
seeks papers that explore some aspect of the following: trauma in the plays, poetry,
and/or prose of Shakespeare and/or his contemporaries within and outside of London's
drama scene; texts that bear the marks of personal, social, national, religious, or
authorial trauma; the implications of representing and viewing trauma. Papers may be
broadly theoretical or particularized readings.

The Coming Social Circle Era [Headlines]
Jason Schwartz, the founder of Matchbook, explains his idea that social networks are on the way out and how "social circles" will replace them.
Jason Schwartz, the founder of Matchbook, explains his idea that social networks are on the way out and how "social circles" will replace them.
When a pre-schooler has a birthday party they invite the entire class, which constitutes everyone they've ever met. It's not until years later that they develop friendships and social circles that form the basis of inviting one person over the other.
Social Networks are like that pre-schooler's party. Rather then being made up of "friends." they are repositories of people whose existence you acknowledge. You connect with everyone you've ever met because the tools have not been developed to create more complex social circles that make up mature adult relationships. It makes sense that the evolution of digital social will follow the same developmental path we take as humans.
Social Networks are characterized by, "Friend Everyone, Share Everything." Social Circles will be characterized by "Group Dynamically, Share Selectively."
Social Circles will focus on groups, automatically created based on a person's real life social circles. They will dynamically shift to include new close friends and remove those that become distant.

2013 Toronto II: Rahal Letterman Lanigan IndyCar Race Recap
Posted by: newsla on Jul 15, 2013 - 07:09 AM
2013 Toronto II: Rahal Letterman Lanigan IndyCar Race Recap
GRAHAM RAHAL, No. 15 Midas / Big O Tires Dallara/Honda/Firestone: âThe standing start was okay. The traditional rolling start was more fun for me to be honest but I think the fans enjoyed it. It really didnât change Turn 1 at all. We just struggled again for a little bit of pace, a little bit of grip. We lost a little ground in those middle stints when we were stuck in traffic but we went quick at the very end so Iâm pretty happy with that but certainly we want to finish better than we did. It was really physical. This was probably the most physical weekend of racing I have ever had. Iâm going to need to drink a lot of fluid tonight.â
· FAST FACTS: Was his seventh Indy car race here and he also competed in one Atlantic race. He qualified 20th but started 19th after gaining a position due to Ryan Briscoe breaking his wrist in Race 1 and being replaced by Carlos Munoz, who started in the back. He drove to a 14th place finish⦠Started from pole in the 2006 Atlantic race but was hit by Raphael Matos on the first lap. Repaired the damaged suspension and returned to the track a few laps down, set the fastest race lap but later retired in 15th place. Started 15th in the 2007 Champ Car race as a rookie for NHR but an evasive move to avoid a pile up on Lap 1 led to him hitting the wall and a subsequent stop for a new front wing. Had to pit again for another front wing later in the race after running as high as second. Retired in 11th place after he made contact for the third time due to a broken steering rack. There was not a race in Toronto in 2008. In 2009, he started third but was hit by second place starter Will Power, who squeezed him to the wall on the opening lap before T1. A forced stop to replace his front wing dropped him to the back but he charged through the field into seventh place. He held his position behind Patrick but flat-spotted his tires which led to losing three positions before his next stop. He tried to pass the lapped car of Ed Carpenter on the inside on a right-handed turn but the contact ended his race in 20th place after 57/85 laps⦠In 2010, he started 14th with NHR and earned his best finish since his 2008 win in St. Pete of fifth place⦠He competed for Service Central Chip Ganassi Racing in 2011-2012. In 2011 he qualified fifth, led 23 laps and finished 13th⦠In 2012, he qualified 12th, started 10th after penalties were served to two competitors ahead on the grid and was sixth when contact in Turn 1 forced him to retire from the race in 23rd⦠His best finish this season is second place in Long Beach and best start is 11th also in Long Beach⦠Is ranked 17th in series standings with 221 points.
JAMES JAKES, No. 16 Acorn Stairlifts Dallara/Honda/Firestone: "I just hit the curb and it ripped the (steering) wheel straight out of my hands. Iâve seen some wrist injuries in the last few days and hopefully we can sort that out. The kick-back is unbelievable in these things and when you arenât quite dialed in with the dampers itâs a nightmare. It was a frustrating day. It was up about 10 ambient so it was obviously going to be a bit more physical and hot. I had a good standing start but I got blocked in again in Turn 1 which is the same story as yesterday. I went to the inside and got hosed. Itâs frustrating. The weekend started well; we qualified fifth for the first race but had the penalty but it ended bad for us. Weâll just head on to Mid-O (Mid-Ohio). My wrist is okay."
· FAST FACTS: Will be his third event here and first with RLL. He qualified 21st but started 20th after gaining a position due to Ryan Briscoe breaking his wrist in Race 1 and being replaced by Carlos Munoz, who started Race 2 from the back. He was 19th when he made contact with the Turn 6 wall on Lap 63 of 85 and retired in 23rd place. Earned his best series start and finish of 2nd at the previous double-header races on the streets of Detroit (June 2). He qualified 19th here in 2012, started 24th due to a penalty for an unapproved engine change and earned his best finish at the time of eighth place. In 2011, he qualified 23rd and finished 18th. Both events were with Dale Coyne Racing⦠His best series start to date is 2nd at Dual 2 in Detroit and best finish is 2nd also at Dual 2 in Detroit⦠Is ranked 18th in series standings with 215 points.
NEXT UP: The series will take the next two weekends off and reconvene at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course August 2-4 for the Honda Indy 200. It will mark the 16th Indy car event for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL) at what is considered the teamâs home track due to the proximity to the Hilliard, Ohio race shop. The team also competed in the Atlantic Series race at Mid-Ohio in 2003 with Danica Patrick and has competed in ALMS races there in 2007 and from 2009-2012. The highest IndyCar finish for the team is two third place finishes (Rahal 1997, 1998) and the highest start is pole (Herta 1997). Another front row start came in 1999 (Herta; 2nd).

Scratching your head a little over that title, eh?
Yeah me too.
Have you ever had that moment where you knew that you were going to be sick but it was absolutely the last thing that you wanted to do because…who wants to get sick…where you are at…who you are with…who really wants to just hurl right here, right now.
Of course my darling husband and a couple of my kids swear by the nonsense of letting it go (so to speak) because you'll feel better after.
They are totally, completely weird that way…truly….I judge them all the time when they choose to share their weird theory…and then I feel nauseous because I just can't deal with vomit…not at all.
I should have told you what this was about.
No not really actual vomit.
Except there is this one time…it's kind of gross…still…
Way back in 1993, Bill and I bought our very first brand new car, all bright and shiny and red with that fresh new car smell and only 8 miles on the odometer…a Mercury Villager! Thus began my long journey, that seems to have no end, of me driving a minivan. It wasn't that bad…except now when I really don't need a minivan. But that Villager! I loved it. We were literally the first family at my daughter's school to have one and we always caused quite the stir at the drop off and pick up. While I was collecting my kindergartener, Hollie, I would spy other moms pressing their noses against the limousine tinted glass to gaze upon it's gorgeous interior. I loved that car! It was perfect for a young mom with two small children and one on the way. And it was the first brand new car that I had ever owned.
Oh yeah, I was pregnant when we bought it. Yeah, I was struggling with hyperemesis too. Big surprise. But after nearly 8 months of it with Zoë, I was a pro…at least I thought I was. I knew the vomiting was inevitable but at least this time I could control it…?…I know, I'm an idiot sometimes. So there I was coming home from a routine OB visit, driving my gorgeous, red minivan, when…oh no…NO!….OH NO!!!….It's coming….where is a bag, a towel, something, anything….there's nothing??!!…oh dear god…it's coming…
Frantic and not knowing what to do but determined not to throw up in my shiny, new car, I pull over a block from home and…
I never, ever drove that way home as long as we lived on Amelia Drive ever again.
Oh, and family, I did not feel better afterward! I actually felt worse and it had nothing to do with the homeowner of the house I stopped at to puke on their curb saw me. I just did; even if my body was forcing that vomit out.
I'm being gross, aren't I?
I'm sorry.
It happened again the other day. I tried and tried so hard to keep it down, to somehow will it to not come out but…
And then after that came the words…ALL the words. All the words forcing their way out of my mouth…and they just kept coming and coming and coming…
I just can't seem to get away from the Mean Girls references, can I?
What can I say?
It needed to come out…all of it…and it did. Of course I was miserable after…as is the one whom received all those words…so many words…hundreds…more than a thousand…all tumbling out on top of each other , forcing their way out.
It all had to come out.
All of it.
And, because it's me, I felt even worse.
But sometimes you just have to pull over and let it all out right there.
So I did..
Excuse me now, I have a big mess to clean up.

PHILADELPHIA - In his 18 seasons as Jazz coach, Jerry Sloan probably never has gone more than 20 minutes without telling someone that his team doesn't have a player capable of scoring one-on-one. He says it so often, his infant grandchildren probably know that "we can't win by going it alone."
Turns out, maybe that's a good thing.
Allen Iverson scored a circus-act 46 points with a typically virtuoso performance Wednesday night, but got less and less help as the night went on. The Jazz, meanwhile, marched en masse to the basket, practically locking arms in solidarity as they helped each other to layup after layup. Teamwork ultimately trumped solo talent, producing a convincing 110-102 victory - the first-place Jazz's eighth win in nine games.
"We execute almost perfectly," exclaimed Andrei Kirilenko, and he's got the numbers
to back him up. The Jazz surged to a 35-point fourth quarter and a 62-point second half Ń both of them their best of the season Ń mostly because they became addicted to finding the open man.
Utah piled up 29 assists, including a career-high eight from Mehmet Okur, hit 11 consecutive shots at one point, and connected on 20 of 27 shots in the second half Ń a 74.1 percent success rate they had not equalled since Feb. 5, 1999.
"For us, it was easy," Kirilenko blurted after his usual all-everything effort recorded 23 points, six rebounds, four assists, four blocks Ń including a couple of crucial ones on Iverson Ń and three steals. "Our execution is phenomenal."
And once again, the decisive stretch was quarterbacked by Milt Palacio, the only point guard wearing No. 3 who earned a win. With Keith McLeod and Deron Williams collecting fouls and skid marks trying to keep up with Iverson, the veteran played the final 16 minutes, a span in which the Jazz outscored Philadelphia 48-38. He made the pick-and-roll a deadly weapon, hitting five of his six shots, getting to the free-throw line eight times, and finishing with 17 points and two assists.
"He was terrific down the stretch," Sloan said. "He made his free throws, he took the ball to the basket, he just played extremely well. He seemed to be very confident playing in that position."
Well, all except the juggling-hand-grenades part. That's what guarding Iverson, the league's quickest man, must be like. The former league MVP attacked the basket relentlessly, scoring 13, 12, 11 and 10 points in each quarter - maybe he was getting tired - and exhausting Utah's help-help-help-oh-hell defense.
"I'm glad we're done with him," Palacio said with unmistakable sincerity. "You've got to guard him with five people. I was saying in the huddle, if your man comes up to set a pick, you know damn well who's shooting."
Yep, you always know who's shooting on the Sixers (though Chris Webber chipped in 21 points, 18 in the first half). But you know who's defending, too: Nobody.
The Sixers rank 28th in points allowed and 23rd in shooting percentage allowed, and it showed. The Jazz simply swung the ball around, waited for someone to spring free, and got him the ball for an open shot.
"If we take our time, we're going to get whatever we want," Palacio said. "They're not the best defensive team out there; we know that."
So do the Sixers. "There's a lot of troubling aspects of this game, but the fact they shoot layup after layup, I think that's it," said Philadelphia coach Mo Cheeks. "That's not the best defense you can play, put it that way."
It might be about as good an offense as the Jazz can play. They fell behind by six at halftime, but came out determined to finish this Eastern trip with their third straight victory. They hit 71 percent in the third quarter, cutting the Sixer lead to a point, then roared away with a 16-7 run in which they didn't miss a shot.
Okur reacted to double-teams by firing the ball underneath to Harpring, outside to Gordan Giricek (16 points on 7-for-11 shooting) or simply shooting before the extra defender could arrive. The Turk finished with 25 points and eight rebounds to match his eight assists.
He even hit the night's biggest shot, a 20-foot high-arcing hopper near the end of the shot clock that preserved a Jazz lead that had dwindled to five.
And when the Sixers made it 102-98 with 1:27 to play, Kirilenko made the biggest defensive play, blocking Andre Iguodala layup attempt.
"Andrei, he was amazing on defense," credited Okur. "Whole winning streak is because Andrei plays good and we play as a team. That's all you need."
Yep. No one-on-one play necessary.
Jazz 110, 76ers 102 IN SHORT - The Jazz enjoyed the latest episode of the Allen Iverson Show, particularly when their team-first approach overshadowed his 46 points and produced Utah's eighth win in nine games.
KEY STAT - The Jazz went more than 11 minutes without missing a field-goal try midway through the second half.
KEY MOMENT - Philadelphia was within four and had the ball with a minute to play, and got the ball to Andre Iguodala under the hoop. But Andrei Kirilenko swatted the shot away and Milt Palacio picked it up and got fouled, ending the Sixers' threat.

By Judy Keen, USA TODAY
CHICAGO A chilly, damp summer in the Midwest and New England might make it difficult for people in those regions to find the perfect Halloween pumpkin.
Growers in some states say harvests are down significantly from last year's yield, which could mean shortages or higher prices for pumpkins shipped in from California, Texas and other areas with better crops.
"It's just been a really rough year from the get-go," says Mark Kamman, a grower in Vallonia, Ind. "Vegetables like it hot." He has fewer pumpkins per acre, and those that did grow are smaller.
His costs are up 30-40% because of high fuel and fertilizer prices, but Kamman is reluctant to raise prices at his farm stand. The economy, he says, means "nobody can afford them."
The market value of the 2008 U.S. pumpkin crop was $140.7 million, with 43,400 acres harvested, the Department of Agriculture says.
The bleak weather has been particularly hard on small growers:
• Stephen Lipinski, who farms 60 acres in Hanson, Mass., says his pumpkin crop is about one-tenth of last year's. "There's going to be quite a shortage" in New England, he says.
Lipinski, who sells his pumpkins to small wholesalers and at his own market, expects prices to hit 55 cents a pound this fall, up from 39-49 cents last year.
• A damaging hailstorm and "a monsoon August" made this a tough year for Dave Myers, owner of Heartland Farms in Waterloo, Iowa. His crop is about 70% of normal, he says, and his pumpkins are a week to 10 days behind the ripening schedule.
"That's why farming is a little bit like going to Vegas," he says.
• At Blue Heron Organic Farm in Lincoln, Mass., owner Ellery Kimball expects her pumpkin crop to be a total loss.
"The fields were wet during the most important part of the growing season," she says.
Kimball sells produce to restaurants and runs a farm stand. She'll close it early or decorate it for fall with turnips, cabbage and broccoli instead of pumpkins. She'll consider hosting a fundraiser or applying for a loan or grant to offset losses, she says.
The news isn't grim everywhere. Only an early frost could harm southern Ohio pumpkin crops that need another three or four weeks of growing weather, says Brad Bergefurd, a horticulture specialist at Ohio State University.
At Farmer John's Pumpkin Patch in Austin, Minn., owner John Ulland frets about an early frost, too. Cool weather slowed the shift from green to orange, but "we've been lucky" and the pumpkins are "just about perfect," he says.

The mission doesn't have the name 'Blood Bowl'. When you enter the red circle at the stadium it displays nothing, but when you look at your stats it says 'Bloodring', and not 'Blood Bowl'. --DT-boy 06:19, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
Same thing as DT-boy mentioned. Unlike, for example, 8-track, it is not percepted as a mission: neither save's name changes after saving nor it displays the name of a mission when you enter the red circle.
Moreover, I get money only for the first stage. 10000$ and that's it. No 20000$ for 2 minutes, no 30000$ for 3 minutes etc.
Also it DOESN'T top after 6th minutes:when entering a mission again new target time is 7 mins.
Is it normal? Is it bug? Or it depends on patch version? Deemadeema (talk) 03:37, December 25, 2013 (UTC)

I'm really looking forward to sharing the platform at Exponential West, October 7-10, 2013 at Saddleback Church in Southern California. The theme of the conference is Discipleship, and features great leaders like Rick Warren, Laurie Beshore, Ray Chang, Robert Coleman, Dave Ferguson, Dori Gorman, Alan Hirsch, Chris Hodges, Miles McPherson, Obed Martinez, Efrem Smith and Jeff Vanderstelt.
If you're a rookie church planter or a veteran pastor, I strongly recommend that you join us at Exponential West.
In this blog post, I'm presenting 8 Reasons why discipleship is such a struggle in the American Church context and offer 8 Remedies to counter the struggle. This list was birthed out of the soil of my own life and pastoral ministry in the trenches with ethnically and socio-economically diverse people.
Here's one of the ways that I define discipleship:
"Discipleship is not knowing more information about Jesus, but knowing Jesus and being transformed into His image through the constant exposure of the Gospel of grace in the context of a local church. His life and mission becomes ours as we live by faith in Him in the everydayness of life by the Spirit's power."
8 REASONS and 8 REMEDIES
REASON 1: We have a discipleship problem because we divorce people from the story of God–which is Eternity, Creation, The Fall, Redemption, and Restoration.
REMEDY 1: We must teach people to see themselves in God's redemptive story or they will develop a customer mentality and futilely attempt to place God in their story. (1 Peter 2:9-10)
REASON 2: We have a discipleship problem because we teach unknowingly, or knowingly, the Homogenous Unit Principle. This produces a theology of comfort, disunity, and consumerism.
REMEDY 2: We must teach people that Jesus creates one new people, a multi-ethnic, blood-bought community that is on mission with Him. (Ephesians 2:14-3:1-13)
REASON 3: We have a discipleship problem because we teach people that "church" is somewhere you go on the weekend, instead of the identity of God's people "on the go" with Jesus.
REMEDY 3: We must recapture the essence of God's people gathering on the weekend, and scattering them during the week as missionaries into their spheres of influence. (Matthew 28:18-20)
REASON 4: We have a discipleship problem because we fail to realize that our UNION LIFE with Jesus is the Source, Significance and Strength of our lives as Kingdom of God citizens.
REMEDY 4: We must teach people that Jesus has made us alive with His life (Regeneration), declared us to be His very righteousness (Justification), has forever forgiven us and made us perfect in Him (Propitiation), has made us God's friends (Reconciliation), that Jesus has purchased our freedom (Redemption), is growing us into His image by the Holy Spirit's power (Sanctification), and in one future day will give us resurrection bodies in the New Heavens and Earth (glorification). (Romans 8:30)
REASON 5: We have a discipleship problem because we WRONGLY think sanctification is the basis of our justification.
REMEDY 5: We must teach people that the basis of their sanctification is justification. (Romans 5:17-18)
REASON 6: We have a discipleship problem because for some reason, we divorce discipleship from worship and evangelism.
REMEDY 6: We must teach people that discipleship is accelerated when we see all of life as worship and worship moves us to evangelism. (Romans 12:1-8)
REASON 7: We have a discipleship problem because we wrongly believe the Gospel is just for the unbeliever and not for the believer also.
REMEDY 7: The same Gospel that justifies the sinner also sanctifies and glorifies the saint.
REASON 8: We have a discipleship problem because we think the Gospel is just soteriology only, and not that Jesus is establishing His Kingship.
REMEDY 8: Jesus' life, death, resurrection, and ascension are about Him defeating sin, death, and evil and establishing His Kingship over all of creation. And by His grace, He extends His union life to humanity and gives us everything we need to extend our King's kingdom through the lives of His people, the church.
In my book, Limitless Life: You Are More Than Your Past When God Has Your Future, I have attempted to address and provide solutions to our discipleship crisis. CLICK HERE to learn more about Limitless Life.
Marinate on that,
