How does Local Connect Local Jail Call Phone Number service work?
How does Local Connect Local Jail Call Telephone number service work?
Whenever you sign-up, you receive a phone number that's local to the jail facility where your inmate is situated. When the inmate calls your number, the call is redirected for your cell phone charged at a local rate through the Jail Phone Provider such as Securus, GTL, PayTel (Pay-Tel), IC Solutions and GTL.net service ConnectNetwork. You save a lot of money on every call around. Talk to your loved ones in jail for cheap
Because all inmate calls from jail or prison (or any detention facility) are collect calls and every jail facility has their own in house phone provider. This means you must have an account using this jail/prison phone service provider to help make any calls.
LOCAL JAIL CALL SERVICE helps save money on every call by giving you your own Special Jail Contact number which is a local call to the jail facility where your inmate is found.
This enables your inmate to make a local call to you. So no more huge long distance jail calling charges; you pay only the rate to get a local call which can be generally 80% to 85% lower than the normal high cost. Because we offer you with a local number so that when the inmate calls time it rings on your own phone. You will save approximately 80% by using us. The Jails really do not like us because we have been reducing your Jail phone bills and large profits from your misery. Talk to your loved ones in jail for cheap

Trigger Point Therapy - Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFS)
Posted by Team NAT on
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) can refer to a number of injuries resulting from overuse, causing pain around the knee cap (patella).
PFPS is characterized by a group of symptoms that are easily diagnosed and often respond to simple management. The common presentation is knee pain in association with positions of the knee that result in increased or misdirected mechanical forces between the kneecap and femur.
Ironically, as simple as its presentation is, there is still a lack of consensus on the fundamental factors associated with PFPS. Accordingly, synonyms for the syndrome go in and out of fashion.
No agreement exists on the exact pathophysiology, but significant work is being completed on the extent and direction of the associated forces on the patella, trigger point activity, and on the tracking and alignment of the patella.
Common Causes
PFPS is most likely to occur when the hamstrings and quadriceps are too tight and inflexible. This leaves the patella unsupported creating pressure and causing it to move from its correct position.
It's also worth noting that these type of knee injuries can sometimes be related to tension or weakness in the hip (gluteus medius muscle).
See image above for common trigger point sites.
Common Symptoms
Symptoms may be felt in one or both knees and whilst some clients will experience the pain as sudden and piercing, other will experience it as chronic and dull.• Pain will centre around and behind the patella
• Pain will be felt from kneeling, squatting or even getting up from a chair
• The knee can feel weak and feel and unbalanced
• Symptoms are often more pronounced when walking down hill or downstairs
Gluteus Medius - Self Massage with a Hard Ball
Who Is Prone to PFPS?
Women are more likely to get than men. This is due to their wider hips which cause a greater angling of the knee to the thighbone, creating increased stress on the knee cap.
Younger runners (teens) as well as those who run for recreational purposes tend to suffer most. But it's pretty common especially amongst hikers, cyclists. and even office workers who sit for long periods can develop this condition.
A recent report in the USA estimated a PFPS prevalence rate of 20% in student populations.
Interestingly around 40% of professional cyclists will develop a form of PFS each year, and we've certainly seen an increase in the number of amateur and leisure cyclists who we treat for knee problems.
What else could It be?
Here is a list of other conditions which can mimic PFS:• Medial or Lateral meniscal cartilage tear
• Stress Reaction or Stress Fracture of the Patella (Knee Cap)
• Contusion of cartilage or bone
• Referred pain from lumbar spine L4/5 nerve root
• Quadriceps tendinopathy
• Patellar tendon tendinopathy
• Painful plica
• Pes anserinus bursitis
• Pes anserinus tendinopathy
• Biceps femoris tendinopathy
• Lateral patellar compression syndrome
• Stress reaction or stress fracture of femur, tibia or proximal fibula
• Proximal tibial-fibular joint sprain
Quadriceps Stretch - Can Help Dissipate Trigger Points
Trigger Point Therapy
Common knee injuries including PFPS are often associated with trigger points in the gluteus minimus, medius, maximus, quadriceps and sartorius muscles.
Most commonly overlooked are trigger points in popliteus and the patellar ligament (see video above).
There are a number of well documented treatment protocols for PFPS which include trigger point therapy, stretching, strengthening, and taping.

U.S. Senator Tim Kaine released the following statement on the murder of Carlos Mejia Orellana in Honduras:
"I was shocked to learn of the murder of Carlos Mejia Orellana, journalist and marketing director of Jesuit founded Radio Progreso in Honduras. My prayers go out to Carlos's friends and family in the El Progreso community that welcomed me as a young student in the 1980's.
"Too often, Honduran officials have dismissed threats and attacks against journalists, and questioned whether the violence was connected to the victims' profession. In Carlos's particular case, police have announced possible conclusions without even the start of an investigation. Premature and speculative judgments cannot be allowed to stand in the way of a thorough investigation. This must not be yet another homicide in Honduras that goes unpunished.
"Honduran police failed to protect Carlos, despite repeated requests to do so from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. The police need to take immediate steps to protect Carlos's surviving colleagues at Radio Progreso and its research arm, ERIC, who also live under constant threat."

Xbox 360 Owners Buy the Most Games
But the most interesting figures were left for the last page, when console "attach rates" were compared for the Wii, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 -- that is, how many games the average owner of each console has purchased. Perhaps not too surprisingly, the Xbox 360 came out on top.
As you can see above, the average Xbox 360 owner has 6.6 games for his or her console, while the average Wii gamer has 5.5, and the PlayStation 3 owner has 5.3. One important thing to keep in mind is that this chart shows attach rates for the first 23 months of each system's release, meaning the 360 numbers are only though September 2007, while the Wii and PS3 numbers are through September 2008 (if you add in the extra year the 360 has at retail, its total attach rate stands at 8.1).
A few interesting things can be gleaned from this chart. For one, as most would probably expect, the Wii has a big edge in first-party sales, while it lags considerably behind in third-party sales. This falls in line with the standard mold in which many have placed Nintendo's console, with their own games selling in huge numbers while third-party developers struggle a bit more.
But more interesting is what these numbers might not show -- yes, the Wii is in second place in terms of its attach rate, but could its staggeringly large number of hardware sales be throwing the relative strength of its software sales out of proportion? For instance, in a couple of other charts provided in the report, U.S. software sales for all three consoles are compared in their first 23 months of release. In terms of first-party sales, the Wii clobbered the 360 and PS3, with around 30 million units, compared to the 360 at a little fewer than 10 million, and the PS3 at around 5 million. It's much closer in terms of third-party sales, although the Wii still wins with sales close to 40 million, with the 360 near 35 million, and the PS3 down at a little fewer than 25 million.
So in conclusion, in the first 23 months of each system's release, the Wii outsold both the 360 and PS3 in both first-party and third-party software sales in the U.S. While this doesn't take into account software sales in both Europe and Japan, what it might suggest is that while the Wii came in second place in console attach rates, it probably isn't in second place in terms of hardware sales in general -- Wii owners may buy fewer games, but there are so many of them that they still buy more games in the long run anyway. Boy, it must be good to be Nintendo these days.

JUSTICE STEVENS delivered the opinion of the Court.
The question presented is whether an unloaded handgun is a "dangerous weapon" within the meaning of the federal bank robbery statute.
At about 9:30 a.m. on July 26, 1984, petitioner and a companion, both wearing stocking masks and gloves, entered a bank in Baltimore. Petitioner thereupon displayed a dark handgun and ordered everyone in the bank to put his hands up and not to move. While petitioner remained in the lobby area holding the gun, his companion vaulted the counter and placed about $3,400 in a brown paper bag. The two robbers were apprehended by a police officer as they left the bank. Petitioner's gun was not loaded.
Three reasons, each independently sufficient, support the conclusion that an unloaded gun is a "dangerous weapon." First, a gun is an article that is typically and characteristically dangerous; the use for which it is manufactured and sold is a dangerous one, and the law reasonably may presume that such an article is always dangerous even though it may not be armed at a particular time or place. In addition, the display
Accordingly, the judgment of the Court of Appeals is Affirmed.
"(a) Whoever, by force and violence, or by intimidation, takes, or attempts to take, from the person or presence of another any property or money or any other thing of value belonging to, or in the care, custody, control, management, or possession of, any bank, credit union, or any savings and loan association . . .
"Shall be fined not more than $5,000 or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
"(b) Whoever takes and carries away, with intent to steal or purloin, any property or money or any other thing of value exceeding $100 belonging to, or in the care, custody, control, management, or possession of any bank, credit union, or any savings and loan association, shall be fined not more than $5,000 or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; . . .
"(d) Whoever, in committing, or in attempting to commit, any offense defined in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, assaults any person, or puts in jeopardy the life of any person by the use of a dangerous weapon or device, shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than twenty-five years, or both."

Bhutto Urges Action by Musharraf
Thursday, August 16, 2007
NEW YORK, Aug. 15 -- Pakistan's exiled opposition leader, Benazir Bhutto, expressed frustration on Wednesday with political negotiations with the country's military ruler, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, but said she still plans to return to the country "later this year."
Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations here, Bhutto said that her Pakistan People's Party has been engaged in negotiations with Musharraf "for almost a year" and that she is seeking to return to active politics in exchange for her support of Musharraf. She gave the president until the end of this month to take what she called "confidence-building measures" to keep the dialogue going.
"Time is running out," Bhutto said. "Is it just talk, or is it going to turn into a walk?" She said it was important to conclude the negotiations this month because "we are risking our popularity even by having this dialogue."
Bhutto and Musharraf are longtime rivals. But Musharraf's position has been significantly weakened in recent months, and he is now fighting for his political survival.
In her speech and in answering questions from the audience, Bhutto did not specify the measures she wanted Musharraf to take. But afterward, she said in an interview that she was demanding he lift restrictions on political party leaders such as herself and that he grant "indemnity for all parliamentarians and for all holders of public office."
"For us and him to work together, there have to be these gestures," Bhutto said.
Bhutto is facing graft charges in Pakistan stemming from her two terms as prime minister, in 1988-90 and 1993-96. In April, Musharraf disbanded the special anti-corruption unit investigating Bhutto, but the charges have not all been formally dropped. Bhutto called the charges against her politically motivated. "The charges are concocted to put the political class on the defensive," she said.
In her speech, Bhutto was strongly critical of Musharraf's military rule, which she called "unaccountable, unrepresentative, undemocratic and disconnected from the ordinary people in the country."
She blamed Musharraf for the "failure to stop the Taliban and al-Qaeda reorganizing after they were defeated," and she said his military rule was responsible for the growth of Islamic extremism in Pakistan, because moderate democratic voices have been stifled. She accused Musharraf of "a very bloody suppression of people's human rights."
"I seek to lead a democratic Pakistan that is free from the yoke of military dictatorship," she said.
Despite her harsh critique, Bhutto said she is willing to work with Musharraf. "Pakistan is not an ordinary country and it is not facing an ordinary situation now," she said when asked how she could justify dealing with Musharraf. "We have problems with General Musharraf because he is a coup leader," she said. "But General Musharraf has committed Pakistan to following a moderate path." She said the fault line between moderation and extremism in Pakistan was as grave a threat to the country as that between dictatorship and democracy.
Analysts said Bhutto may be forced to work with Musharraf if she wants to return to active politics this year. "She doesn't have any choice," said Marvin G. Weinbaum, scholar-in-residence at the Middle East Institute in Washington and a former Pakistan analyst at the State Department. "The military's not going to disappear from the picture."
But analysts said Bhutto risked undermining her strength as an opposition leader if she embraced the president too closely. "She would like to go back, and she needs to get some promises of security," said Daniel Markey, senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. "She's playing a pretty dangerous game, with the potential that it could backfire on her."
He added, "If there is a deal, she has to still be an opposition figure. She has to be a critic of Musharraf, but at the same time be willing to work with him. That's a tough balancing act."

INTEREST rates have been left on hold at 3 per cent as the Reserve Bank sits on the sidelines awaiting more signs the Australian economy has turned the corner.
In a statement accompanying the decision, RBA governor Glenn Stevens said most indicators suggested that economic growth in Australia was close to trend, helped mainly by an increase in investment in the resources sector.
"Looking ahead, the peak in resource investment is approaching. As it does, there will be more scope for some other areas of demand to strengthen,'' Mr Stevens said.
"Dwelling investment appears to be slowly increasing, with higher dwelling prices and rental yields.''
Conditions that were hurting global economic growth have eased in recent months, he said.
"The United States is experiencing a moderate expansion and financial strains in Europe are considerably reduced compared with the situation through much of last year.
"Around Asia generally, growth was dampened by the earlier slowing in China and the weakness in Europe, but again there are signs of stabilisation.''
The central bank's "wait-and-see'' approach was further boosted with the release of new data today showing a strong lift in retail sales in January as confidence gradual flows back into the key household sector.
But most economists are still tipping the RBA will lower rates once more in the current rate cutting cycle with the June/July period identified as the most likely time for another reduction.
Since rates began falling in November 2011, the RBA has slashed 1.75 per cent off the official cash rate to a record low of 3 per cent.
RP Data research director Tim Lawless said the recent run of positive data including yesterday's strong jump in job ads were a factor in the RBA decision.
"It has taken the housing market longer than normal to respond to such low mortgage rates, however it would be reasonable to assume that the RBA would be fairly comfortable with the housing market outcome to date,'' he said.

Study: Sick brain cells may recover from Alzheimer's
Fri., July 15, 2005
WASHINGTON – Brain cells poisoned by Alzheimer's disease don't always die right away, says provocative new research that suggests it may one day be possible to save those sick cells and recover some memory.
Scientists watched in amazement as demented mice rapidly regained mental function after they were protected from a mutant protein named tau – even if a significant number of their brain cells already had died.
"We'd always thought the mental impairment was due to the loss of neurons," explained lead researcher Karen Ashe, a University of Minnesota neurology professor. "What we're showing is that there are neurons which are affected but not dead."
Stop the poison and at least some of those neurons can recover, she reported Thursday in the journal Science.
The study is sure to open a long-awaited new front in Alzheimer's research. Until now, scientists have focused mostly on a different brain protein, called beta-amyloid, that also wreaks havoc in patients' brains. Ashe's work shows they'll need to focus on both culprits.
The study bolsters the notion that Alzheimer's patients' brains do contain three types of cells: healthy ones, dead ones, and sick ones, said William Thies, scientific director of the Alzheimer's Association.
"If you can actually rescue some of these sick cells, that really brings the possibility of return of some function, which would be of tremendous value," he said.

It's all about revolutionary technology change

- 380 million snapchat pictures shared each day - snap what?
- Phablets are now greatly outpacing either tablets of pcs - what's a phablet, phone/tablet crossover
- Everything is shifting to mobile

- Google is now bigger than all newspapers and magazines
- Print adds have fallen off a cliff
Why do we care?
We all care about the image, the art, how we can better create images that evoke emotion. We care about the cameras, lens and software that allow us the get around imperfections in the technology to create our vision.
Discussions about the future of our favorite camera companies does matter. We are in the middle of revolutionary technology change. Some products and companies aren't going to survive no matter what we think. How we spend our dollars on photographic equipment does matter. It's a vote on which technologies and companies will survive. It's only natural that topics would get heated because nobody wants their favorite camera company to go bust. I'm voting for Nikon DSLR because I have an investment in their lenses. Others may be more vested in their 4/3 camera, their Canon, their Pentax or their Olympus. Hasselblad owners don't care because they are so niche already that they pay through the nose. Your purchases are your votes. Like it or not companies will be listening with their investments and product plans. Those companies without critical mass who make the wrong choices won't be around in the long term.
I don't know, but I would guess that this technology change has and will continue to change the services provided by professional photographers. There's probably a change in the clients for advertising photography shoots. Wedding photographers need to pick up their game with additional services to address client's mobile expectations. If your website is designed only for computer browser windows without scaling for mobile you are missing out big time. Kudos to Dpreview for having a mobile friendly web site.

Invest in learning with an education franchise, an industry of explosive growth
From humble beginnings, private education services have expanded to create a booming market in the UK, indicating how now is an opportune time to invest in an education franchise.
In 2001, 270,000 tutors helped 1.6 million UK children and by 2014 these numbers had almost doubled with 520,000 tutors working with 2.8 million students. What's even more surprising is that this is just a fraction of the entire private education market. Companies now provide education for everything from traditional school subjects to training in languages, sport and even cooking.
As this market expands, more and more companies are differentiating themselves from the rest by offering specific educational services for both children and adults. With such a diverse range of services, the market is in a prime position for many investors to benefit by investing in an education franchise.
In the UK the education industry is worth £17.5 billion and as private education continues to become more commonly used by families and schools alike, the industry is sure to consistently grow.
In an article posted by The Telegraph, Nevil Chiles from Kensington & Chelsea Tutors discusses how the students who benefit most from private educational services are the ones who focus on a specific subject or area rather than covering a larger range. Many parents agree and because of this, education franchises and businesses that cater to a more specific area are performing extremely well.
Tutoring options for children
Reed Commercial has a vast range of available education franchises that provide specific educational services, allowing you to see a brilliant return on your investment. First and foremost, you'll find education franchises that cater for the traditional school subjects such as Maths, Science and English. Education franchises such as Spaghetti Maths, Fizz Pop Science and MagiKats Maths and English Tutoring are reliable investments that are in constant demand, ensuring you'll have an easy time helping children in your community develop their knowledge and seeing promising returns on your venture.
Other available education franchises help children gain vital skills and act as brilliant options for parents who want their children to engage with extracurricular activities and after-school programs. The Musical Minis and Music Bugs franchises help children learn a musical instrument or to sing and read music, while other education franchises such as Lingotot, Progressive Sports and ComputerXplorers teach children skills in foreign languages, sports or IT. For consistently strong returns, investing in an education franchise that caters to a specific skill or activity for children is a great way to differentiate your business from the rest.
Working with adults
While many of the available education franchises at Reed Commercial cater to children, there are options that target adults and corporate businesses, providing you with the opportunity to select the franchise that most interests you. Franchises such as New Horizons and Pitman Training provide education in IT, teaching adults vital computer skills that are so commonly needed in today's working world.
Other options such as Daisy First Aid service extremely niche markets, such as first aid training, ensuring you'll always have a high volume of clients. Finally, the franchise NobleProg provides corporate training, for those investors who have previous corporate experience and would thrive in this market. With a global reach and excellent notoriety, this franchise is an excellent option for entrepreneurs who want to aim high with their education franchise.
Finding what works for you
There's no denying the education industry in the UK is thriving. More and more people are deciding to reap the benefits of private education with 72% of children using a tutor to prepare for Common Entrance. With this in mind, entrepreneurs are jumping at the opportunity to make the most of this market of growth. While a background in education or business would give you an edge, it isn't entirely necessary, as all of Reed Commercial's education franchises will provide you with all the training and resources to help your business thrive. Additionally, you'll receive continuous support throughout your time with your franchise.
Reed Commercial's offerings of education franchises mean you're spoilt for choice. Feel free to browse through the many available franchises to find the perfect fit for you.Tags: children franchise, computerxplorers, daisy first aid, education franchise, explosive growth industry, fizz pop science, lingotot, magikats maths ad english tutoring, music bugs, musical minis, new horizons, nobleprog, pitman training, progresive sports, spaghetti maths, working with adults

Head to the popular St. Peter's Quarter in the heart of Derby and you will discover Carnero Lounge. Carnero is Spanish for Ram which is Derby's Emblem - there's even a folk song called "The Derby Ram!"

There is something on the menu to tempt all taste buds; from carnivores and vegetarians, to vegans and gluten frees. As with all our Lounges, Carnero Lounge is here to be enjoyed by the local community: families, friends, couples, kids and even canine guests will be treated to a warm, friendly welcome.

It's made to attract wealthy clientele, and to help entice shoppers to come inside, they had an art exhibition inside the store called "Pop the Bag." Each installation featured a handbag, and DeviantArt user Kordian decided to add a pop culture twist by featuring Catwoman swiping Batman's cowl. The statue is meant to be a modern take on Caravaggio's "Judith Beheading Holofernes."

"The venerable RE272."
- 4.5/5,
Pros - Forward, resolving, rich, clear mids. Smooth, extended, clear and resolving highs. Very well balanced neutral sound
Cons - Not enough low end presence.
Holds a special place in my collection as it has consistently been my daily driver for several years. Sad to think if anything happens to my pair I won't be able to get another one.
"Re 272"
- 4.5/5,
Pros - Great sound
Cons - Tips can be troublesome.
The 272 would have to be one of my favourite IEM's ever. To get the best out of them I prefer it amped.
The detail these things have is nothing short of outstanding. Bass is quick well defined and refined.
So if you like your bass in ya face....not for you. These are about quality not quantity. Only negative for me was I found the tips did not suit my particular ear shape, so getting the right kinda seal is always fiddling about for a while, but once found and then paired with a decent amp you forget about the hassle.
The 272 is special, Its a sure shame they stopped making these.
"Amazing sound for the price"
- 4.5/5,
Pros - Magic sound, great detail, non-fatiguing, neutral sound, source-friendly
Cons - A little shy on the bass
My full review on Passion for Sound is here:
In summary:
- A bit light on the bass - tight and clean, but lacking some oomph
- Sound is so clean and detailed, but not fatiguing
- Staging is excellent - on par or better than much more costly IEMs
- Makes music engaging and enjoyable without colouration
- Not for bass heads, RnB / Hip-Hop / Electronic (with deep bass) fans
- Awesome value of money given their performance

Four middle-aged men discover a dance element to their music... and it's good!
It maybe a risky business, an indie rock band discovering a dance element to their music. Yet that's what Franz Ferdinand have done on this record, and it seems oddly dignified. In fact, it's really, really good.
Tonight: Franz Ferdinand is the sound of the Glaswegian post-punk combo straining beyond the limitations of a four-piece rock band into funkier, poppier, more soulful territory. Guitars are effected-up to sound less like guitars, high-hats are played frenetically at double speed, bass guitars are slapped, and spacey '70s synths, clavatrons, Theremins and drum pads are deployed without self-consciousness.
And yet they never stop sounding like Franz Ferdinand: it's just that this time they're Franz Ferdinand at a fancy dress party where they've come as Prince, Sly and the Family Stone and Stevie Wonder.
In short, opening track 'Ulysses' lights a fire, the awesome 'Turn It On' enflames it and the room continues to burn until the end of the album. Although they wear their hipster, disco, funk, soul mask for most of the record, they do occasionally peek out for some Kinksy pastoralism at points, and then at the end, possibly spent and in need of a cup of Horlicks, Alex Kapranos returns to his real voice for two lovely folk songs – 'Dream Again' and 'Katherine Kiss Me'. It's like the sing-song at the end of the party... and what a party!

- Abstract:
- The main purpose of this PhD project is to develop an ultrasonic method for 3D vector flow imaging. The motivation is to advance the field of velocity estimation in ultrasound, which plays an important role in the clinic. The velocity of blood has components in all three spatial dimensions, yet conventional methods can estimate only the axial component. Several approaches for 3D vector velocity estimation have been suggested, but none of these methods have so far produced convincing in vivo results nor have they been adopted by commercial manufacturers. The basis for this project is the Transverse Oscillation (TO) method, which estimates both the axial and the lateral velocity components. The first part of the scientific contribution demonstrates that a commercial implementation of the TO method is feasible. Afterwards, the method is expanded to a phased array geometry, and performance metrics based on the TO fields are suggested. They can be used to optimize the TO method. In the third part, a TO method for 3D vector velocity estimation is proposed. It employs a 2D phased array transducer and decouples the velocity estimation into three velocity components, which are estimated simultaneously based on 5:1 parallel receive beamforming. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the method. In the final part, an experimental investigation of the 3D TO method is presented. Velocity measurements of steady flow were conducted in a flow-rig system, and the data were acquired using an experimental ultrasound scanner and a 2D transducer. The three velocity components along the center line are measured with relative (to the expected values) biases and standard deviations lower than 5 % and 12 %, respectively. At the center of the vessel, the mean and standard deviation of 100 estimated velocity vectors are (vx, vy, vz) = (-0.03, 95, 1.0) ± (9, 6, 1) cm/s compared with the expected (0, 96, 0) cm/s. Afterwards, 3D vector flow images from a cross-sectional plane of the vessel are presented. The out of plane velocities exhibit the expected 2D circular-symmetric parabolic shape. The experimental results verify that the 3D TO method estimates the complete 3D velocity vectors, and that the method is suitable for 3D vector flow imaging.

the rep system has nothing to do with what you say, how you act or anything other than you beating someone who downvotes you for beating them.
This is a ridiculous statement. I don't think I've ever downvoted someone I lost to (I know at least I didn't do it because I lost), but I've reported on multiple occasions people who send me ridiculously aggressive messages for no other reason than they've gone out of their way to try to harass me. I'm sure a lot of people do downvote for losing (I have been reported for cheating multiple times based on... Honestly, I have no idea, I'm not even overly good at games I play online), but to say it has NOTHING to do with your general behavior is a gross overstatement.

Wrong, I guess I'll have to copy and paste the first amendment since you have no clue as to what it says:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The bold part shows where you are wrong. Companies are not congress, they have the right to make whatever rules they want as long as they don't violate human rights.

As of me writing this, 149 people don't understand the first amendment. This in no way infringes on your right to say what you want. You have a right to say what you want without the government punishing you, but you are not entitled to freely say anything you want without facing backlash in the private sector. A company is more than welcome to dictate how its services are used when it affects other people. If you can't play without raging, just don't abuse the services they offer.
Glad that there's people like you out there that actually understand what freedom of speech is in America.
As for that whole online thing, one of the many reasons that I just don't play anything online.
private organizations, clubs, ect are not bound by the bill of rights.

Do anti racism laws affect free speech?
The answer is no, because a decent human being won't be farting out hate slurs to people of black, asian, middle eastern or even white people. And anyone who does deserves the punishment. I'm sorry TC if you feel your rights are being violated because you can't explicitly describe the events that yourself and my mother partook in the previous night, after I thrash you in a game of attrition, but that's the (sometimes overly) sensitive world we live in, where people are jerks and need to be kept in check.

"Freedom of speech" doesn't mean you're free to say, do, or express anything and everything you can possibly think of without any restraint.
Somehow, I just can't take someone bringing discussion about a game system and the freedom of speech together in the same topic seriously.

I'm well aware of what the first amendment right entails. I also know that by agreeing to the ToU that I basically give up those rights. Which is why I created the poll. Who feels it's ok, who dosent like it, and who needs to see it in action. I need to see it in action. If I swear (and I do) and get a bad reputation than that's kinda stupid. If it's more for cheaters and people using racial slurs than I'm ok with that.
I too can be quite colourful with my language on occasion. I also need to see how the system is implemented first. Cussing is pretty standard in Australia (perhaps over-generalising). When I play online it seems every other spoken word is either s*** or c***, if this system punishes you for cussing there'll likely be fewer people to play with.

It's a moot point. You forfeit rights like that when you agree to the ToS if applicable. Same thing happens on Gamefaqs. You can say whatever you want, but the moderators can remove that message if its against their rules. Freedom of speech doesn't apply in situations like these nor does it mean what most people assume it means.

Tamara Mellon adopting direct to customer model
Tamara Mellon is adopting a direct-to-consumer business model.
The British fashion designer and co-founder of Jimmy Choo launched her eponymous label in 2013 with a group of retail partners in the U.S. and Europe, offering a range of shoes, handbags and accessories. While the company filed for bankruptcy protection in 2015, Mellon didn't take long to pursue a new direction, starting with the hiring of Jill Layfield as Chief Executive Officer.
With plans to relaunch the brand in October (16), Mellon has revealed that the company will no longer hold wholesale accounts and will sell exclusively through the brand's website.
"Three years ago, (when I launched my line), I did 'buy now and wear now,' but the industry wasn't ready for it," she told Footwear News. "I'm now doing direct to the consumer and delivering things monthly that you would want to wear in that season. No collections. I'm excited to deliver shoes to women in a way that they actually shop."
Mellon, who is known for her strappy sandals and sexy stilettos, strongly believes that her business has a place in the luxury market, despite the difficult start. While former Backcountry.com boss Layfield doesn't have a background in fashion in the conventional sense, Mellon is certain her acumen will prove critical in the future.
"Jill is not from a traditional fashion business…but she knows how to build a business online. That's what I'm looking for," she explained.
Mellon, 49, adds that the fundamentals of the company are strong, and in spite of the restructure, claims the firm did $8 million (£6.12 million) in revenue last year (15). And she's confident her new model will be embraced by other fashion companies going forward.
"The customer gets to see something today and wear it tomorrow. This is how the next generation of luxury brands will be built," she said.
