A Stitch in Time is What You'll ReapRiddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
I am four words
Though there appear to be three
Two ways of pronouncing
Three spellings there be.
The first is a manner of indicating, a case being such, or therefore, or a measure of degree.
The second is a pig, female you see.
The third is also on a farm, a manner of planting of seed.
The fourth is to stitch, to hold fabric together, indeed.
Can you tell me now, what word could this be?
AnswerIn order of appearance:
The title is a reference to the fact that both sew and sow appear in proverbs ("a stitch in time, saves nine" and "you reap what you sow")

So You Think You Can Dance Flash!
A female contestant on Tuesday night's episode of So You Think You Can Dance inadvertently flashed the audience!
The contestant was so excited that judge Little C told her she was going to compete in Las Vegas, she rolled around on the floor flashing her underwear-less crotch! Apparently, Fox censors missed the flashing and executive producer Nigel Lythgoe denied that anyone on the show was aware of the flashing. "None of us knew she did this. The show was always designed to expose talent, but not in this way."
No word yet if Fox will get fined by the FCC or what will happen to the contestant. Check out the video below!

TUEBL – The Ultimate Ebook Library, is a site dedicated to serving up ebooks for free to anyone and everyone. The site exists because its founder, Travis McCrea (Captain of the US Pirate Party and Chief Admin Officer of Pirate Party International), took a radical step to create this library without waiting for any third party approval. (Is it really that radical by now tho? Really?)
While Stanford and Harvard have been collaborating to build the Digital Public Library of America since 2010, they have many hurdles to cross and hoops to jump through as they intend to respect outdated copyright laws, despite apparently sharing the sentiments that non-profit access to content is a necessary resource (I highly recommend reading that last link).
Based in Canada, TUEBL is not subject to US laws of the land and apparently complies with international treaties. Although these restrictions have required a great deal of planning for the DPLA, which is still in the planning phase at the time of this writing, TUEBL has been steady offering direct access to ebooks since 2011.
A couple of significant factors set TUEBL apart from pirate sites and traditional content distributors. One of them is that advertising income from the site goes to literacy-basedcharities. Perhaps more relevant is the effort TUEBL has put forth to support the original authors of works that are being shared over the internet. For each title found at TUEBL, you will see a link to buy the book via Amazon.com or an audio book through Audible.com.
The decision to add these "buy online" buttons was perhaps based on the success which some authors, such as Neil Gaiman and Paulo Coelho, have attributed in part to file-sharing. The decision may also have been influenced by studies that show pirates buying content more often than their non-file-sharing peers.
Recently, the site has been receiving a lot of attention, in part due to the outrage of a particular author, Dakota Cassidy, during a heated discussion she began with Travis via facebook. I couldn't help but jump into the discussion (who can resist a classic internet argument?) and witnessed a great deal of preconceived misnomers like the belief that copyright infringement is the same as theft, a file shared is the same as negative retail value (the money lost fallacy) and mostly a bunch of frustrated personal attacks toward Travis.
One point made was that file-sharing is not an "us vs them" issue. This is not meant to vilify Dakota, but to showcase a misguided belief system that many people still struggle to let go of. I understand where writers like her are coming from. If you genuinely believed you were being stolen from, you would probably be upset as well. This is where much of the disagreement surrounding TUEBL comes from. Not to mention that once most people begin to publicly argue a point it is very difficult to accept evidence against one's argument without a sense of "losing face".
Fortunately, the rest of us don't need to wait around much longer for status-quo to change. It's already changing. As a sort of hybrid between authorized distributor and pirate, TUEBL is a happy medium in a world where all content is subject to piracy, but did not previously offer a direct vehicle for generating sales. This could very well become the next trend for online content distribution as big players such as BitTorrent Inc. begin offering ways to help content creators earn income from sharing their work and as more content creators begin to embrace such opportunities.
BTW, my answer is TUEBLE.

Thousands celebrate life of Princess Lacey Holsworth in East Lansing
8-year-old Lacey Holsworth lost her battle with cancer just over a week ago.
Princess Lacey touched the lives of many as her friendships and story were shared with millions nationwide.
Thousands gathered to celebrate her life Thursday night in East Lansing.
The story of Lacey's special 2-year friendship with Michigan State University's Adreian Payne got nationwide attention during the NCAA men's basketball tournament this March.
Her story touched many and thousands came out to show their support Thursday night.
WZZM has more about Thursday's event:
Thursday was about celebrating the 8 years she did have.
It was about singing and dancing and bright colors and funny stories. Thursday's event had no known precedent and won't have a duplicate. It was unique, as was the story of Lacey and her smiling courage and relationship with the MSU men's basketball team — a bona fide brother-sister closeness with senior forward Adreian Payne.
What a powerful night at Bres. I'm so blessed to be a part of this Spartan family. We all will miss u #Lacey! pic.twitter.com/FqshwNxrW4

Plan Your Trip Online
Traveling through cyberspace can be exciting, but it's no substitute for an adventure in the real world. That's where the Web can really help you research destinations, organize your itinerary and book reservations. Whether you want a weekend getaway or a month-long safari, look to the Internet to save you time (no more trekking to bookstores for guidebooks and maps) and money (discounts abound on airfares, hotels and ground transportation). Where do you start? Here's our step-by-step guide:1.Research Your Destination
Where would you like to go? One option is to use a search engine to find information about choice spots. If you choose this route, use a directory like Yahoo! Why? Because it lists websites in categories, so you can easily find listings for Mexican resorts, for example.
Another approach is to browse the websites of travel publications. Begin your journey at:
Another excellent resource is TripAdvisor, which features reader reviews of both popular and obscure destinations, accommodations and activities around the world.
For detailed data about international locales, you can't beat the CIA World Factbook. It's not just for spies!
For worldwide travel advisories, visit the websites of the U.S. State Department or the British Foreign Office.
For health advisories, try the World Health Organization (WHO).2.Design an Itinerary
Once you know where you want to go, it's time to get specific. What are the sights to see? Which events will be happening during your trip? Where are the best places to eat? Answers to these questions await you online.
Let's say you plan to spend a week in British Columbia and want to sample the local cuisine. Some of the websites listed above may have recommendations for Vancouver and Victoria restaurants. But many newspapers have dining sections, so go to the website of the local paper (try OnlineNewpapers.com to locate them), and search its archive.
As you plan your trip, hopping from link to link, you are bound to stumble on all kinds of gems. Bookmark the pages so you can easily return to them.

That's right — making diamonds. Real ones, all but indistinguishable from the stones formed by a billion or so years' worth of intense pressure, later to be sold at Tiffany's.
The company doing this is Apollo Diamond, a tiny outfit started by a former Bell Labs scientist. Peer inside Apollo's stainless steel-and-glass machines, and you can see single-crystal diamonds literally growing amid hot pink gases.
This year, Apollo expects to grow diamonds as big as 2 carats. By the end of 2005, it might expand to 10 carats. The diamonds will probably start moving into the jewelry market as early as next year — at perhaps one-third the price of a mined diamond.
The whole concept turns the fundamental idea of a diamond on its head. The ability to manufacture diamonds could change business, products and daily life as much as the arrival of the steel age in the 1850s or the invention of the transistor in the 1940s.
In technology, the diamond is a dream material. It can make computers run at speeds that would melt the innards of today's computers. Manufactured diamonds could help make lasers of extreme power. The material could allow a cellphone to fit into a watch and iPods to store 10,000 movies, not just 10,000 songs. Diamonds could mean frictionless medical replacement joints. Or coatings — perhaps for cars — that never scratch or wear out.
Scientists have known about the possibilities for years. But they've been held back because mined diamonds are too expensive and too rare. And they're hard to form into wafers and shapes that would be most useful in products.
Manufacturing changes that. It's like the difference between having to wait for lightning to start a fire vs. knowing how to start it by hand.
"I'm just so completely awed by this technology," says Sonia Arrisonof tech analysis group Pacific Research Institute. "Basically, anything that relies on computing power will accelerate."
Arno Penzias, a venture capitalist and Nobel Prize winner for physics, says, "This diamond-fabrication story marks a high-profile milestone on an amazing scientific journey."
"We can't begin to see all the things that can happen because single diamond crystals can be made," says Apollo co-founder Robert Linares, elegant and slim in a golf shirt, slacks and loafers as he sits at the two plastic folding tables that make up Apollo's low-budget conference room. "We are only at the beginning."
Linares has worked on the technology for 15 years, much of that time in his garage. From the start, he did this because of the promise of diamonds in technology. Linares wasn't trying to make gems. In fact, he didn't think he could.
Then he had a happy accident. Well, actually, time will tell whether the accident was a happy one.
Two different paths to diamonds
In 1955, General Electric figured out how to use room-size machines to put carbon under extremely high pressure and make diamond dust and chips. The diamond material wasn't pure or big enough for gems or digital technology. But it had industrial uses, such as diamond-tipped saws. Such saws made it possible, for instance, to cut granite into countertops.
In the ensuing decades, companies and inventors tried to make bigger, better diamonds. But they didn't get far. By the 1990s, researchers were focused on two different paths to diamonds.
One was brute force. Some Russians became pretty good at it, and their machines were eventually brought to Florida by Gemesis. That company now crushes carbon under 58,000 atmospheres of pressure at 2,300 degrees Fahrenheit, until the stuff crystallizes into yellowish diamonds. The stones are attractive for jewelry but not pure enough for digital technology. Gemesis sells its gems through retailers at around $5,000 per carat. A mined yellow diamond can cost four times more.
The other process is called chemical vapor deposition, or CVD. It's more subtle. It uses a combination of carbon gases, temperature and pressure that, Linares says, re-creates conditions present at the beginning of the universe. Atoms from the vapor land on a tiny diamond chip placed in the chamber. Then the vapor particles take on the structure of that diamond — growing the diamond, atom by atom, into a much bigger diamond.
CVD can make diamonds that are clear and utterly pure. It's also a way to make diamond wafers, much like silicon wafers for computer chips. The CVD process can be tweaked by putting in enough boron to allow the diamond to conduct a current. That turns the diamond into a semiconductor.
A handful of companies and scientists, including Sumitomo in Japan and the global diamond powerhouse De Beers, have chased CVD. But by most accounts, Linares is out front.
After receiving his doctorate in materials science from Rutgers University, Linares joined Bell Labs and worked on crystals that would be crucial in telecommunications. In the 1980s, he started Spectrum Technology to make single-crystal Gallium Arsenide chips, one of the key components in cellphones. Spectrum became the material's biggest U.S. supplier, and Linares eventually sold the company to NERCO Advanced Materials.
He then dropped out of business, putting his time and money into his pet project: making CVD diamonds for cutting tools and electronics. "Gemstones were the furthest thing from my mind," Linares says.
Breakthrough in a garage workshop
Linares built machines in his garage, superheating carbon in suburban Boston while his neighbors went about their lives. He got the CVD process to work, at first making tiny diamond chips. He formed Apollo and started down the path to industrial diamonds. Then Linares inadvertently left a diamond piece in a beaker of acid over a weekend. The acid cleaned up excess carbon — essentially coal — that had stayed on the diamond.
"When I came in Monday, I couldn't see the (stone) in the beaker," Linares says. The diamond was colorless and pure. "That's when I realized we could do gemstones."
Apollo Diamond is making real diamonds through a process called chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Here is an explanation of the process:
(1) A slice of diamond is placed flat inside a chamber. Hydrogen and hydrocarbon gases are injected and heated to thousands of degrees at the right pressure. (2) Carbon atoms land on the diamond slice and replicate the crystals structure, the way a drop of water merges seamlessly into a pool of water. The diamond grows thicker and taller. Growing a 5 carat diamond can take a week. (3) The top can be sliced off and cut into gems. Or the diamond can be cut into thin wafers for computer chips or other uses. Part of the slice is returned to the chamber to make the next diamond.
We basically grow our own raw material, says Apollo president Bryant Linares.
Source: Apollo Diamond
For Apollo, there are lots of good things about making gems. Diamond jewelry will be a $60 billion global market this year, and it's growing fast. If Apollo can snag just 1%, the company would become a $600 million rocket.
Also, gems could become a source of revenue quickly. While the military and companies are working on tech inventions that use diamonds, a real market for diamond technology might be a decade away. By selling gems, Apollo can make money now to fund the research for forthcoming diamond tech products.
That solution, though, brings two huge problems. One is that Apollo doesn't know the gem business. Its employees are technologists. Aside from Linares, Apollo is run by his son, Bryant, an MBA who started and sold an information services company. Vice President Patrick Doering had been lead scientist at Spectrum.
"We are not gemstone guys," Bryant Linares admits. They don't know consumer marketing or retailing. Bryant Linares notes that Apollo plans to split into a tech business run by the Linareses and a gem business run by a gem veteran they have yet to hire. For now, though, the gem business is a distraction with a steep learning curve.
Apollo's other problem is De Beers, which doesn't like what Apollo is doing one bit. De Beers launched a public relations campaign and an education program for jewelers, all aimed at portraying mined diamonds as real and eternal — and CVD or Gemesis diamonds as fake and tacky.
Both Apollo and Gemesis want to market their gems as "cultured diamonds," taking a cue from cultured pearls. De Beers is fighting that label. "It's misleading and unacceptable," says De Beers executive Simon Lawson. "It makes people think (manufacturing diamonds) is an organic process, and it's not."
Even highly trained diamond experts find it almost impossible to tell a CVD diamond from a mined one. De Beers is determined to help by making machines that can detect the slightest difference in the way the two materials refract light.
As part of that effort, De Beers stepped up its own CVD research "focused on producing state-of-the-art synthetic diamonds for testing on our equipment," Lawson says. Referring to CVD diamonds, he adds, "We don't see gemological applications fitting into it."
So by getting into gems, little Apollo made a powerful, determined enemy.
A long list of possibilities
The tech side is an entirely different story. Just about every entity in technology can get excited about diamonds.
The military's DARPA research arm has been pumping money into CVD projects. Companies such as Lucent are on the trail of holographic optical storage, which will use lasers to store data in 3D patterns, cramming huge amounts of information in tiny spaces. CVD diamonds would vault holographic storage ahead, helping bring about the 10,000-movie iPod.
Tech company Textron is a big fan of Apollo. Textron has been working on super lasers that might become weapons or be used like a camera flash for spy satellites, so they could take photos from space at night.
"Thermal management is a major challenge to increasing a laser's power," explains Textron scientist Yulin Wang. The diamond has the highest thermal conductivity of any material, which allows it to quickly move heat away from the laser's insides. Textron needs large, pure diamond pieces for its lasers and finally found them at Apollo.
CVD diamonds can help solve one of the computer industry's biggest challenges. Companies such as Intel advance computer chip technology by squeezing microscopic wires closer together while making the chips run ever faster. But that's making the chips increasingly hotter. At some point this decade, the chips could run so hot they'd melt. But not if the chips were based on diamond wafers instead of silicon.
"Using diamonds as semiconductors will continue Moore's Law," says Pacific Research's Arrison, referring to an observation about the continual increase in speed and power since chips were invented.
The list of possibilities for man-made diamonds goes on. "By most measures, diamond is the biggest and best," says a research paper written about CVD by Paul May at the U.K.'s University of Bristol. It's the hardest material, it won't expand in heat, won't wear, is chemically inert and optically transparent, May says.
"Once (manufactured) diamond is available, developers will find all kinds of other things to do with it," Robert Linares says.
Manufactured diamonds will be like other inventions that were so profound because they made new things possible. Steel allowed engineers to dream of skyscrapers and suspension bridges. Transistors led to computers and pacemakers and so much else. So this may be the beginning of the diamond age of technology.
Says Linares: "The genie is out of the bottle, and it can never be put back in."

Obama Calls Ellen's Record-Breaking Tweet a 'Cheap Stunt'
President Barack Obama, with a hint of jealousy, on Thursday joked with Ellen DeGeneres that her epic Oscar selfie was a "cheap stunt," in a friendly daytime TV interview aimed at pushing Americans to sign up for health insurance.
"I heard about that," Mr. Obama told Ms. DeGeneres when she mentioned that her Oscar tweet surpassed one of the president and First Lady Michelle Obama as the most retweeted Tweet. "I thought it was a pretty cheap stunt myself, getting a bunch of celebrities in the background and feeding them pizza."

It's not very user-friendly. I'd rather not copy that same design to this walreceiver timeout. If there's two different timeouts like that, it's even worse, because it's easy to confuse the two. So let's think how this should ideally work from a user's point of view. I think there should be just two settings: walsender_timeout and walreceiver_timeout. walsender_timeout specifies how long a walsender will keep a connection open if it doesn't hear from the walreceiver, and walreceiver_timeout is the same for walreceiver. The system should figure out itself how often to send keepalive messages so that those timeouts are not reached. In walsender, after half of walsender_timeout has elapsed and we haven't received anything from the client, the walsender process should send a "ping" message to the client. Whenever the client receives a Ping, it replies. The walreceiver does the same; when half of walreceiver_timeout has elapsed, send a Ping message to the server. Each Ping-Pong roundtrip resets the timer in both ends, regardless of which side initiated it, so if e.g walsender_timeout < walreceiver_timeout, the client will never have to initiate a Ping message, because walsender will always reach the walsender_timeout/2 point first and initiate the heartbeat message. The Ping/Pong messages don't necessarily need to be new message types, we can use the message types we currently have, perhaps with an additional flag attached to them, to request the other side to reply immediately. - Heikki

In this newest sneak peek, Britney Spears briefly takes her devotees to behind the scenes of the Jonas Akerlund-directed music video.
Another new teaser of Britney Spears' "Hold It Against Me" music video has just come out. It gives a brief glimpse at her behind-the-scene crew, and clearer look at the pop singer as she is surrounded by mic in front of the camera.
Directed by Jonas Akerlund, the music video is going to make its debut on February 17 before a new episode of "Jersey Shore" on MTV. Leading to the video premiere, one new short teaser will be released each day. Also in anticipation of the premiere, Britney answered fans' questions on Twitter Thursday, February 10.
She held the Twitter Q&A session from her house in Calabassas. When asked about Lady GaGa, she replied, "I love Lady Gaga. I think she's a really interesting artist." Talking about Madonna comparison, she shared, "It's so flattering! I really LOVE Madonna and she has been a huge inspiration for me."
Of writing songs in her new album, she gushed, "I would describe it as moody, edgy pop with A LOT of energy.I co-wrote a couple of songs. I think its some of the best work I have ever done." She revealed further about what to expect, "There are a few mid tempos that could be considered ballads."
She addressed Grammy rumor, "I won't be there and was never planning on going." But, she's "doing a lot of promo. There will be some major announcements in the next few days." She additionally talked about her plan for her next tour, "I'm thinking about tour right now and I would to visit a lot of places I didnt get to go to on my last tour."
The album titled "Femme Fatale" is going to be released in the U.S. on March 29. "I'm so excited and I can't wait for you guys to hear it. I think its some of the best work I have ever done! Just want to say that I really love you guys and can't thank you enough for the support throughout my entire career," she posted.

About MeMy name is Hrvoje Golubić and I am freelance photographer digital artist from Zagreb, Croatia.
I am curious about the world, love to travel, find new horizons and such. Whatever interests my inquisitive mind. My love of photography has evolved over the years, and now seems to have branched out to the extreme sides of the spectrum. On one hand, I love doing digital composites and combining photography with digital painting. The possibilities to be creative are endless, as are the hours spent on it.
On the other hand, I yearn to be outside, away from the computer, no lighting equipment, just enjoying meeting new interesting people and capturing small fragments of everyday life.
Either way, as I move forward, I want to focus more and more on telling stories with my photographs.

I'm fairly happy with the result. Considering 8wks P/O F/TT. I question myself why my PS have made incision differently. Lt is low&straight yet RT side went up towards the end where tube was placed and this is the area the swelling doesn't seem to go away or have much change since the surgery. Still swollen in general and have loose skin, would this improve? and is it normal to have such a dark colored bb? I use mederma cream with spf everyday. Would this improve too in time? I wear garmet 24/7.
8 Wks Tt P/o. Rt Side Near End of Incision Much Swollen and Will Not Subside.

I agree that at 8 weeks post op tummy tuck surgery, you are looking good. You still have swelling that takes months to subside and the scar can take up to 1 year to mature and fade. I think you are doing all of the right things. In response to the incision, we plastic surgeons do our best during surgery and sometimes things need to be adjusted to get a specific result... there is never a 100% guarantee with any surgery. Enjoy your results.

Gracious moments. We can't live without them. When we extend grace to others, despite our flaws and weaknesses, we reflect something of the very nature and character of Christ.With grace, sin becomes the enemy, not people. What was it that enabled Paul to endure such sinful opposition and rotten attitudes from a group of people he risked his life to reach for Christ?

Graciousness. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Graceless moments. They have a way of sucking the life right out of us. They put the clamps on our spirits and keep us from breathing. Inconsiderate. Disrespectful. Out to hurt.

They snatch all notions of faith, hope, and love right out of us and replace them with doubt, suspicion, and anger.Paul knew all about graceless moments.

I SEE in The Press of September 2 that York Hospital faces £10 million in fines because not meeting targets.
Well, they won't help themselves by charging drunks or drug users who are taking up beds for hours then there are no beds for those who really need them. Hence patients are waiting a long time, so the hospital does not meet its targets and is fined.
Two points here: the hospital should charge drinkers and drug users for their time in hospital to offset the fines; or have a separate unit not in A&E so that patients can be seen more quickly, helping the hospital to meet its target. The unit that treats drunks and drug users could be exempt from any such timings or fines.

Last Night: Pitbull at Reliant Stadium
Photos courtesy of Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo
Pitbull Reliant Stadium March 14, 2013
Pitbull, for those of you who don't know, used to be a rapper. In fact, he was a pretty good one. In the early 2000s, he even joined the Anger Management tour alongside Eminem and 50 Cent, performing crass hits like "Dammit Man," "Back Up" and "Culo" off his debut album, M.I.A.M.I.
He was never phenomenal, but M.I.A.M.I. showed potential.
These days, however, he's more of a hype man than anything else, a Flavor Flav without a Chuck D to validate his presence in the music industry. He's on his suit and tie shit now, too... And it's not fitting.
Commercially, it was the best decision Pitbull could have ever made. His album sales, Bud Light endorsement and the crowd of 75,217 people at Reliant Stadium last night (the second-largest in RodeoHouston history) was proof of as much, but it doesn't change the fact that the music he's putting out now is just terrible.

And truthfully, it might be better without him.
Pitbull's performance involved awkwardly shaking his hips, rolling imaginary dice in his hand, sweating profusely and occasionally causing pandemonium in the crowd by speaking en Español. But the most memorable (and musical) instances of the evening didn't involve him at all.
The backing tracks and beats, his backing band and the musical guests who were shown on the screens overhead Early on in the show dwarfed Pitbull's own activity. And had the same cameras not occasionally flashed back to him as shouted "Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" roughly 300 times during musical breaks, I would have forgotten he was even there.
No matter how many hits he releases that top the iTunes charts -- to name a few, "Rain Over Me," "Don't Stop the Party," "I Know You Want Me" and Thursday night's closer "Give Me Everything" -- his is still just fleeting club music that teenagers download before road trips and twentysomethings dance to (poorly) before they wake up with hangovers, regretting the previous night's decision.
Truthfully, I can't judge the guy, really. Financially, it was the smart move to make. And maybe he's got some serious bills I don't know about, or perhaps there was some family emergency that called for a quick influx of cash.
But I'll stick with his classics, if you can even call them that, off that debut album. Because I still have fond memories of laughing and bobbing my head back and forth to M.I.A.M.I., and I was excited about a new voice in the rap industry. His raspy vocals had just enough depth to make it to the airwaves; his beats and hooks were catchy; and his lyricism was Southern but had a perspective I hadn't heard before.
Unfortunately, he isn't a rapper anymore. And instead of putting out tracks with the likes of Bun B ("Dirty"), he's collaborating with Chris Brown ("International Love").
Dammit, man.
Personal Bias: I enjoyed the fireworks.
Overheard in the Crowd: Lots of chanting along.

It showed, that Castro was ready to use the nukes, already installed on Cuba, on american cities; during talks with their russian counterparts, they pushed them to destroy NY, Washington DC and other cities. Castro at the time knew, that he, the cubans, and his little beautifull island, would cease to exist. Why did he advocated an suicidal attack on the US ? He said: It doesn't matter if Cuba dies, communism will live on, and would be the victor. Cuba would be living on eternally, in the idea of communism, and its victory on this earth. During the Cuba Crisis, the US and Russia were rational actors. Cuba wasn't. [b][u]WHY ?[/u][/b] Its the mixture of being in a closed up mindset, the conviction of being right and just, and HATRED. Chruschtschow told his Cuban counterpart: It would be beautifull to bring communisn to victory, but we do not want to die in this beautifull way (my translation). [/quote] The Cuban Crisis showed, that there were two rational actors (the US and the UDSSR), and between them, the MAD doctrine worked.

I was up in the Niagara Falls area, didn't cross into Canada (didn't have the proper documentation needed) But I slipped my hand through the gate so my hand was in Canada briefly:tounge: Only got one good day while I was there to see the falls other than that it rained and wind the rest of the time, got to admit looks like they do a better job of hospitality on the Canadian side cuz the american side looks a bit runned down. Falls are beautiful and intimidating though, had never seen a black squirrel until then either, at first I thought it was a giant rat.

Original Message
In continuation of a series of years of World at War,THIS IS A SPECIAL EDITION BASED UPON URGENT PENDING MATTERS, the following was the 2011 thread.
Thread: The World at War, Official 2011 war thread for North Korea, Iran, Israel, China, U.S.
The following is the 2012 Thread up to the end of August.
Thread: World at War, Official 2012 Thread for Israel, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, PA, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan, India, North Korea, Russia, China, U.S.
Now we enter into the last four months of 2012. Follow the past year to see where we are at. I try not to give much BS and only ask that if you do not care for the topic or format, do not visit this thread.
Trolls, you will be deleted or blocked, you can start your own thread if you wish, just leave us alone!
As stated at the start of 2012, 2012 will be the start of much chaos economically as well as militarily. We have gone through much doom and gloom already. But now, it is of urgency that we wait to see whether Iran goes nuclear, whether Israel takes it upon herself to attack Iran, whether the US leaves Israel to fend for herself, what the results of the US election have in store for Israel, the Mideast and the US, and what will happen in Syria.
Israel must face the challenge of a nuclear Iran with or without the U.S. to protect her. Further, Syria feels threatened as did Libya where Assad may lash out at Israel. The Hezbollah may too jump on in. Lebanon and Jordan may face their own arab spring. Egypt may tear up the Israeli peace treaty any day. Turkey looks as Israel with jealousy for Israel's gas and oil reserves in the Med.
China and Russia wish to impose retrictions on America's once global dominance where there will be more challenges to U.S. interests leading to possible military blows.
North Korea's tender young leader has no fear in challenging U.S. might and may cause further military adventurism.
Pakistan has nukes that could be stolen and/or Pakistan and the U.S. may enter into more vis a vis hotile interactions.
Iran is threatening to challenge the west and is due for a nuclear detonation soon. What the U.S./and or Israel do to stop Iran is worthy of watching every day.
Iraq is now under Iran's thumb and likely will further become a feifdom of Iran.
Afghanistan is soon to force the withdrawal of U.S. forces.
India and Pakistan may soon come to blows.
Will the global economic crisis resolve itself, will the crisis collapse the world economy, or whom may come forward with some new currency?
Further, spiritually, 2012 looks to be a year of turmoil.
There are seers warning of some type of sign from God this coming year. The Mayan's seemed to predict something. The Pope may flee Rome? A comet in the sky? Great earthquakes? Signs in the sky?
Look further at bug-outs or going grey, everyone should be prepping by now in case things really do go bad. I am just saying.
So, if you wish to discuss the above mentioned or wish to hear it from others, feel free to drop in and leave some good 5 stars if you find this inforomation either entertaining or productive.

In the mid-nineteenth century, a transportation industry developed in Reading that put the city on the map—and on the Monopoly board—forever. Founded in 1748 by William Penn's sons Thomas and Richard,Reading experienced rapid growth throughout the nineteenth century as the Reading Railroad (the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad) breathed steam into the city's industry. As the powerful railroads faded later, so did the city's economy. In recent years, Reading has become known as the birthplace and capital of factory outlet shopping and the hub ofnewborn manufacturing, financial, and agricultural enterprises.

When he took my case, he seemed like he would try to get a fair deal for me. He did everything that my x's lawyer wanted, although they never cooperated. I had to keep getting the same information from banks. It was all about the money, my money. He did his work getting all my information, however, he never pushed the other lawyer to get their information together. He assured me that judges don't like the cougar type lawyers, they would rather deal with quiet, & composed ones. In the end he had no opening statement, and never put my x on the stand. Instead, he agreed to most everything they put before him, then made it look like it was good for me. It was a very emotional time for me, I thought I could trust him to do what was in my best interest. I was to trusting, he threw me to the wolves. They led him around like a little puppy. Basically, I got nothing, he didn't fight for them to split our possessions evenly, m x stole alot of money from me and I didn't see a dime. I got sentimental stuff.

Those who participated in the first 2013 Cyclovia Tucson event earlier this month will find some distinct differences with this year's second Cyclovia taking place this Sunday.
While the mission is the same - to create an event free of motorized transportation to inspire the community and promote physical fitness - the route is brand new.
It will stretch through four miles of midtown from Keeling Desert Park, 245 E. Glenn St., to just beyond Brandi Fenton Park, at 3482 E. River Road, where it will connect with the 110-mile multiuse path dubbed "The Loop" at the Rillito River.
Rather than run in a circuit, which is how it has traditionally been done in Tucson, this time the path will be linear.
"We were toying with the idea of a linear route," said Kylie Walzak, coordinator for all of the Cyclovia Tucson events. "We've seen it done successfully in other cities, places like Atlanta and L.A. Los Angeles has 15 miles of streets set up in a linear fashion for its Cyclovia."
Walzak said the route was chosen through a public input process setup on the Cyclovia website that asked where the next event should be held.
The two neighborhoods that came up the most were the North Dodge neighborhood and the Keeling neighborhood.
"Anecdotally, when we did our outreach here, people have been very excited because they say these are commuter-friendly neighborhoods," Walzak said.
The event will feature similar types of activities along the way; an array of interactive exhibitions to entertain visitors such as a bike decorating station and solar demonstrations.
Walzak said the idea for Cyclovia in Tucson was to create an opportunity for people to explore their surroundings, whether they do it on a bike, skates or by foot.
"We wanted to highlight roads that on non-Cyclovia days, people can feel comfortable biking on or riding on," Walzak said. "They have relatively low traffic. Streets like Mountain Avenue have nice wide sidewalks that are offset from the street so they are pleasant to walk on."
About 10,000 people attended the last Cyclovia event on April 7.
Walzak said that because this is a new route, organizers aren't positive they will get that many, but they are hopeful.
"We would be thrilled if that many people showed up," she said.
In the future, the Cyclovia steering committee hopes to have four to five routes that would run at different times throughout the year.
"This is not a competitive race that requires people to register ahead of time," she said. "It is an opportunity for people to check out the streets and explore."
if you go
• What: Cyclovia.
• When: 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Sunday.
• Where: The new linear route runs from Keeling Desert Park, 245 E. Glenn St., to just beyond Brandi Fenton Park, 3482 E. River Road.
• Cost: Free.

the veins of the place, stuff
inside's the blood." We work in rain,
heat, snow, sleet. First warm
spring winds up from Ohio, I
pause at the top of the ladder
to take in the wide world reaching
downriver and beyond. Sunlight
dumped on standing and moving
lines of freight cars, new fields
of bright weeds blowing, scoured
valleys, false mountains of coke
and slag. At the ends of sight
a rolling mass of clouds as dark
as money brings the weather in.

i read through all the previous posts and tried all of the suggestions. my
only problem is that my computer will not allow me to change to run as an
administrator. the check box and wording is gray to where choosing it is not
an option. i also cannot pull up internet options. i get a box saying
"C:\Windows\system32\ADVPACK.dll is either not designed to run on windows or
it contains an error.", thus i cannot delete my temp internet files and my
defrag won't work. i'm thinking my computer has some serious windows issues
at this time. if anyone can help me figure out how to fix at least one
problem, i would be grateful! thanks!

Turf's up
Page Tools
Eye on the ball ... a child plays on the turf at Bill's Turf Supplies at Freemans Reach yesterday while elsewhere in NSW, the recent rain has led to the re-emergence of the familiar roar of lawnmowers.

Orchestras of lawnmowers, which once played familiar weekend tunes in Sydney's suburbs, have been almost silenced by the drought.
However, while recent rain has failed to refill the city's dams, it has brought hope to many who depend upon lawns for their livelihood.
"We haven't had good rain like this for quite a few months," Tony Sultana, a turf farmer who runs Riverview Quality Turf, near Windsor, said yesterday. "We had 70 millimetres on Friday. I put my gumboots on for the first time in two years. We just went outside and watched."
Mr Sultana, whose sales to residential customers have plunged 90 per cent, hoped the rain would renew interest in lawns. "People who spot a muddy patch in the yard might decide to put some grass down."
Forced by the drought to put off two employees, the turf farmer was also cheered by the neighbourhood roar of lawnmowers yesterday.
John Camilleri, co-owner of Bill's Turf Supplies at Freemans Reach, said the State Government had to either build a new dam or adopt water recycling. He said his industry had been warned that a complete ban on hosing would be introduced when dam levels fell to 30 per cent. "That will ruin us."
Phil Minkie, who runs a Balgowlah lawn mowing business, A Backyard Cut, estimated that 30 per cent of his business lost during the drought had returned following the rain.
"It has never been as slow as it's been this year," he said, adding that he had put off one of his two employees. "About 70 per cent of my work is lawn mowing and it was probably down 50 per cent."
But since the first good rain last month business "has really kicked on. In the last week I have had at least 20 per cent of my calls from people I haven't heard from since April or May".
"It's actually the weeds that are growing," he conceded.
"It's still not warm enough for the grass."
However, "the rain has given me confidence we can survive another summer".
At Catts Nursery in Carlingford, Parnel McAdam was serving customers: "Today has been really busy ... almost twice as busy as three weeks ago." In the wake of the rain customers were buying mulch and soil wetting products, as well as seeking advice on resuscitating their lawns.
Mr Sultana argued that, contrary to popular opinion, lawns were environmentally friendly.
Grass "does not reflect much heat, filters the air, stops soil erosion, and kids can play on a soft turf", he said.
The weather bureau is tipping mostly dry weather until at least Monday, with a chance of late showers and thunderstorms on Thursday.

That the right of way hereby granted to said company shall be seventy-five feet in width on each side of the central line of said canal as aforesaid; and said company shall also have the right to take from said lands adjacent to the line of said canal material, stone, earth, and timber necessary for the construction of said canal.
That it shall be the duty of the Secretary of the Interior to fix the amount of compensation to be paid the Indians for such right of way, and for whatever property of said Indians may be taken in the construction of said canal, and provide the time and manner for the payment thereof, and also to ascertain and fix the amount of compensation to be made individual members of the tribe for damages sustained by them by reason of the construction of said canal; but no right of any kind shall vest in said irrigation company in or to any part of the right of way herein provided for until plats thereof, made upon actual surveys for the definite location of such canal, shall be filed with and approved by the Secretary of the Interior, which approval shall be made in writing, and be opened for the inspection of any party interested therein, and until the compensation aforesaid has been fixed and paid; and the surveys, construction, and operation of such canal shall be conducted with due regard for the rights of the Indians and in accordance with such rules and regulations as the Secretary of the Interior may make to carry out this provision: Provided, That the consent of the Indians to said right of way and compensation shall be obtained by said irrigation company, in such manner as the Secretary of the Interior shall prescribe, before any right under this act shall accrue to said company.
That said company shall not assign, or transfer, or mortgage this right of way for any purpose whatever until said canal shall be completed: Provided, That the company may mortgage said franchise for money to construct and complete said canal: And provided further, That the right herein granted shall be lost and forfeited by said company unless the canal is constructed across said reservation within two years from the passage of this act.
That said irrigation company shall accept this right of way upon the express condition, binding upon itself, its successors or
{Page 381}
assigns, that they will neither aid, advise, nor assist in any effort looking toward the changing or extinguishing the present tenure of the Indians in their land, and will not attempt to secure from the Indian tribes any further grant of land or its occupancy than is hereinbefore provided: Provided, That any violation of the condition mentioned in this section shall operate as a forfeiture of all the rights and privileges of said irrigation company under this act.
That Congress may at any time amend, add to, alter, or repeal this act.
Approved, October 1, 1890.

New Mexico Telegram » Elections, New Mexico House » Carl Trujillo rages against the "machine"
Carl Trujillo rages against the "machine"
Carl Trujillo really, really wants everyone to know that he is the outsider candidate in New Mexico's House District 46. In a press release and blog post, Trujillo railed against a debate sponsored by what he called the "Political Machine" of the Democratic Party of Santa Fe County.
"We and our supporters have witnessed firsthand the way Democratic Party rules are bent or ignored, standards of fairness violated, and bias is exercised to give preferential treatment to Machine candidates over candidates of the people and the values that the Democratic Party purports to stand for," Trujillo wrote. "Your invitation to participate in a forum arranged, moderated, scheduled and formatted by the Democratic Party Machine is just such an abuse."
Trujillo included the invitation sent to him by Richard D. Ellenberg, the chair of the county party.
I would like to invite you to two forums, on in Tesuque area and one here at headquarters. I am looking at the week of April 23 Mon-Thur. Please let me know if you have any conflicts. Subject to your impute, the time will be 6-7:30; questions presented to a moderator in writing in advance or at the forum. 3 minute opening. Then the same question to each candidate, rotating who goes first. 2 minute answer. I might add a 1 minute rebuttal each to make it more of a debate format. No closing.
Trujillo came within 85 votes of knocking off Speaker of the House Ben Lujan in 2010 in the Democratic primary in the same district.
Lujan is not running for re-election because of health issues.
Trujillo almost pulled off the huge upset by running as an outsider against what he said was the party machine — now Trujillo is using the same tactics in his race against Santa Fe mayor David Coss. And not making many friends among Democratic Party officials in the process.

One Response to "Carl Trujillo rages against the "machine""
From one Trujillo to another….good luck on your race for NM district 46. I'm not a politician and live in Dallas, TX but I do try to keep up on what's happening in NM. My parents were from Sapello and Mora. Again, good luck. Ernie Trujillo

Peeling Away the Layers
Daily OM: Trees grow up through their branches and down through their roots into the earth. They also grow wider with each passing year. As they do, they shed the bark that served to protect them but now is no longer big enough to contain them. In the same way, we create boundaries and develop defenses to protect ourselves and then, at a certain point, we outgrow them. If we don't allow ourselves to shed our protective layer, we can't expand to our full potential. Trees need their protective bark to enable the delicate process of growth and renewal to unfold without threat. Likewise, we need our boundaries and defenses so that the more vulnerable parts of ourselves can safely heal and unfold. But our growth also depends upon our ability to soften, loosen, and shed boundaries and defenses we no longer need. It is often the case in life that structures we put in place to help us grow eventually become constricting...read more>>>...

While I fabricate and sell Fluting Jigs, I like to make the instructions on how to make and use this type of jig available to those who like to make their own and have the necessary tools to do so. If you don't have a welder, metal shear, cutoff wheel, grinder, or drill press, or would simply rather not spend the time and effort required to make one, just PM me and I'll send you one (along with a bill - less than competitively priced jigs)
I'm not an expert on their use, so I've relied on several experts with regard to the proper techniques. I heartily welcome constructive comments on both ways to improve the Fluting Jig and the techniques of using them.
Instructions for Making and Using the Fluting Jig
This document is intended to be used as an instruction guide for both making and using the Fluting Jig.
Special thanks to the following friends and fellow knappers:
Jim Miller- who started me making the jigs
Emory Coons - whose jig I used as a basis for the one I make and for demonstrating his fluting techniques at various knap-ins
James Miller – for his tips and suggestion on improvements to the jig and fluting techniques
The Fluting Jig consists of the following:
1. A steel base made from flat stock 6" x 12" x 3/16".
2. Two uprights, 1-1/4" wide, 12" lengths of steel angle stock that have ¼" holes drilled on one side as close to the angel as possible. The holes are positioned ¾" apart (center to center) and extend to the top of the uprights. The uprights are welded to the base on three sides (the face or front of the uprights are not welded so as not to interfere with the placement of the point).
3. The uprights are parallel and 1" apart to allow for large flutes and the tops of the uprights are connected by a welded small steel cross member to prevent them from spreading.
4. The fulcrum is a ¼' diameter pin secured by a clip pin for easy removal and adjustment.
5. The lever rod is ½" diameter, copper plated grounding rod. The tip is ground to a point and then flattened on one side to provide the best platform for engaging the fluting nipple on the point. The back side of the rod where it engages the fulcrum pin is also ground flat to prevent the lever from twisting or turning under the fluting pressure.
6. Shims, used to position the point relative to the lever rod/fulcrum and support the tip, are 3/16" steel, 1/8" aluminum and 1mm copper. Steel shims are just for height adjustment but the copper and aluminum may be used for both height adjustment and tip support.
Instructions for Use
To use the fluting jig, place an appropriately formed point* against the face of the uprights with the point resting on the base. Position the fulcrum pin above the base/nipple of the point far enough above so that there is room to place the lever rod between the fulcrum pin and the nipple on the base of the point. The pin should be inserted into the holes approximately ¾" above the nipple. Use the included shims to raise the point so that when the rod just touches both the nipple and the fulcrum pin the angle of the rod is approximately 10° above horizontal.
Here is an example of the proper positioning of the point in the jig. Note that coins, especially those with copper such as pennies or quarters will work for shims. Wood wedges are also effect when used to adjust the height of the point relative to the fulcrum/lever and provide good support for the tip.
Note the clearly defined and isolated 'nipple' platform on the base (in this case the top of the point).
Applying the Pressure
With the tip properly positioned, begin by slowly applying downward pressure on the nipple by lifting up on the opposite end of the lever. A slight pulling motion on the lever during the final stages of the upward pressure on the nipple will help remove the flute. This pulling action is similar to the flake pulling technique used in pressure flaking.
While I could speculate on why different techniques work and then try to explain every nuance of proper jig technique, suffice to say I'd never be able to describe it well enough to compensate for practice and/or trial and error. The knappers I know that are best at fluting have spent hours developing their techniques and have made and broken literally hundreds, if not thousands, of points. Even the best knappers I know are only successful three out of five attempts – success being a good looking point fluted more or less evenly on both sides.
Then again, I've personally witnessed an expert knapper make three and sometimes four excellent Clovis points in a single hour, while only breaking one or two of five attempts. Using a jig, and there is evidence that various Native American tribes did, makes fluting easier and more consistent for most knappers than other method like direct percussion.
*Properly formed points
A properly formed point has two distinct features. First, a prominent ridge in the center of the point running from tip to base. Down this ridge is where the fluting energy is directed, with either a percussion or jig/lever technique. Second, a 'nipple' on the base of the point. This 'nipple' is basically a strong, clearly isolated platform on which the jig lever is place to drive the flute off the point.
Some recognized types of Fluted Points*

Each presidential candidate had his ups and downs in last night's CNN Republican debate, but former House Speaker Newt Gingrich had the evening's most memorable moment. Moderator John King posed the following question:
Since "birth control" is the latest hot topic, which candidates believe in birth control and if not, why?
The audience's raucous booing made clear they weren't interested in the press's latest talking point, and neither was Gingrich. He turned the tables beautifully:
I want to make two quick points, John. The first is there is a legitimate question about the power of the government to impose on religion activities which any religion opposes. That's legitimate. But I just want to point out, you did not once in the 2008 campaign, not once did anybody in the elite media ask why Barack Obama voted in favor of legalizing infanticide. So let's be clear here. If we're going to have a debate about who is the extremist on these issues, it is President Obama, who, as a state senator, voted to protect doctors who killed babies who survived the abortion.
Right on cue, Naureen Khan of National Journal sprang into action to defend the president and the press:
According to Politifact, an independent fact-checking organization that looked into similar claims made by former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum on the campaign trail, Obama voiced his opposition to the new legislation as a state senator because it would have given legal status to fetuses and would thus have been struck down by the courts, and because Illinois already had laws to ensure infants who survived abortions would be given medical attention.
Not true, Politi-"fact": as Ramesh Ponnuru explained at the time, Illinois' preexisting protections were "loophole-ridden" and only applied to babies who were considered to have "sustainable survivability," leaving pre-"viable" newborns unprotected. When Stanek "made her report, the attorney general said that no law had been broken. That's why legislators proposed a bill to fill the gap." Further, the Chicago Tribune reported that, "prosecutors in IL entered into a consent decree in 1993 agreeing not to prosecute doctors for apparent or alleged violations of this law based on 'born alive' definitions or other definitions."
FactCheck.org found holes in Obama's explanations as to why he did not support the "born alive" legislation. However, by opposing the bill, Obama was not voting to legalize infanticide (as Gingrich said) or to prevent doctors from giving infants medical attention.
Whether the bill literally said, word-for-word, "infanticide is hereby legalized" isn't the issue. A de facto legalization of infanticide under certain conditions was already in place in Illinois, and Obama's votes blocked measures to end it.
Furthermore, the media, including CNN, reported on and discussed Obama's opposition to the legislation during his 2008 presidential campaign.
But the CNN report Khan cites is a fluff piece that takes Obama's version of events at face value and vaguely implies that Illinois nurse and pro-life blogger Jill Stanek, who blew the lid off the controversy, was dishonest. The only critical take on events in the clip came from conservative commentator Bill Bennett. Today, Stanek elaborates, explaining that a similar Washington Post "debunking" actually "only shows it was a Fox News journalist, not a member of the mainstream media, who asked Obama about his votes; and it was conservative Bill Bennett who broached the topic on CNN; and it was Obama's Republican opponent John McCain who brought it up during a debate."
Newt Gingrich may have been a bit semantically imprecise, but his essential point was absolutely true and extraordinarily important. The mainstream media couldn't care less about "extremism." It's support for abortion—at any point and for any reason—that drives their contraception obsession and religious bigotry.

Mushroom & Spinach Pizza
Pizza is one of life's simple pleasures. We like to make it at least once a week at our house. Our basic PIZZA DOUGH takes just minutes to pull together with the help of Ruby, our trusty stand mixer (no worries if you don't have a stand mixer, you can mix and knead the dough by hand and get your workout in for the day too!) Make your dough in the late morning (we all know I'm not a morning person) and it will be ready to roll by dinnertime. Then all you need to do is decide on the toppings. Today we're sharing our "meaty" mushroom and spinach veg version.
The dough recipe makes enough for two medium sized pizzas. Which is great because in our house we cannot agree on a pizza topping to save our lives. Which means I can add as many mushrooms to my pizza as I like! It's no secret that I am obsessed with shrooms. I have a plethora of shroom filled recipes peppered throughout this site and have no intentions of stopping the shroom fest anytime soon ; ) You do like mushrooms don't you?
Of course you do. All my friends love mushrooms. And since you do, I saved that slice just for you… When you want to make it yourself you can find my recipe on The Mushroom Channel.
