Hello, whoever stumbles upon this book I wrote. I cannot remember my true name, and there is nothing special to say about me, but if you insist on giving me an identity, like I gave myself, then just call me Brian.Edit
I am a man with short hair. I wear jeans, a shirt and a pair of shoes. I am a regular person, without any unique characteristics, though I tend to be quiet most of the time. This journal, story, diary; however you wish to call it, will hopefully guide you, if the same fate that struck me cursed you, too.
Day 1
I do not know what happened before, since I seem to suffer from amnesia or have no memories to begin with, but one morning, I woke up at a beach. I had nothing with me but my clothes, and I did not know the place I was in. I was not even sure if it had any name at all or if anyone else knew about it.
I walked through a seemingly endless forest that was located right behind the small beach. It was barren of any life, and I started to feel forlorn. Everything looked so alike that after some time, I was not even sure in which direction I was heading to. Sometimes, I thought that something was following me, observing me, like I was pray for a predator, but I could convince myself that it was only my paranoia.
Fortunately, though the sun was already at its peak, I escaped the lashing branches of the trees, and I was greeted by a wide, vast plain, filled with herds of different animals. All of them were herbivores, and did not seem to be afraid of me, so I simply walked past them towards a mountain chain with the idea, that I may be able to spot some sign of civilization from the top of one of these rather small mountains.
Wandering through the ginormous grassland, something made me feel uncomfortable. They always gazed directly at me when I passed them. I replied the glances, but these animals seemed to be completely devoid of life. Their eyes were so soulless, even for animals, and it disconcerted me. Quickly, I lost their attention and was like thin air for them, and I could not say if I should feel lucky or worried about it. I decided to not care and continued to follow my set path, though I knew that these eyes were following my every step. Staring. Judging.
In the evenings, I approached the mountainous ridge, but to my misfortune, it started to rain cats and dogs. It may just could have been me at that time, but time itself seemed to flow faster at this godforsaken place, since the rainstorm came nearly instantly and the time between noon and evening did not feel as long as it should. But maybe, it was just me overwhelmed by all the unsettling sensations and dark thoughts that grabbed hold of me.
I could spot a cave inside one of the mountains, so I decided to take shelter there. It was not too high, and I had easy access to it, and soon, I stood inside the hole of the humungous rock. It was dry inside, but also chillingly cold, but most of all, desolate. I decided to put my head on a pile of smooth grit and fell asleep, hoping that all of this was just a nightmare.
Day 2Edit
I slowly woke up in the morning and as soon as I did, something seemed to threaten me. Immediately, my heart sank into my boots, because I could feel something apparently out of ice stroking my cheek, its freezing temperature hurting my skin. Not just that, but there was this echoing whisper, that sounded like something would drown, choke or at least gasp for breath.
I opened my eyes and nervously looked at what was causing this nerve-racking sensation. All I could see with my still blurry vision was a pitch-black claw, gently stroking my face. Promptly, I jumped up and turned around, only to see that there has never been anything to begin with, but the cave itself.
I tried to convince myself that it was just a hallucination, a desperate attempt of my brain to convince me that I am not the only person in the world, but I felt the urge to leave the socket as quickly as possible, since I could not be sure.
As soon as I left it, I could see a little animal standing on an edge next to the cave, starring into the abyss. When I observed it, I felt a pain in my stomach. I was hungry, so hungry, and this lamb seemed to be the solution for my problem. But I was not sure. I was no murderer, and I had nothing to cook it with.
I eventually approached it anyway, and when I was just mere inches away from it, it turned to me. Again, it starred at me with its soulless eyes. These piercing, disdaining eyes. I hated them, and they enraged me. Something inside me simply snapped and without control of myself, I smashed my fist into its face, and the little lamb stumbled and fell into its doom, slamming into the ground and dying instantly. I was just so hungry, so, so hungry, that I did not care about anything else anymore.
I went to the corpse and only with my bear hands and some sharp stones, I pulled the wool from the young sheep and ripped out its meat. I did not care that I was kneeling in a pool of blood or what monster I seemed to portray. I did not care that my dinner was raw and slimy. I could only enjoy the delicious taste of the warm, viscid flesh.
It felt absolutely natural, like it was how it was supposed to be. I did no feel bad for the sheep. 'Survival of the fittest' echoed through my mind. The strongest survive and the weak die. I was not insane. Just surviving.
I brushed the blood aside and left the remains of the animal, so nature would do the rest. I clambered up the rampant mountain and took a good look of the surrounding area. A morass in one direction, a steppe behind it, and another grassland in the other direction. But something was different about that new plain. I was sure I could see shapes in the distance, that looked like small buildings.
I was incredibly glad that I was not all alone in this sinister place, but I began to feel bad for the being I just killed, even though I knew that animals are not aware of themselves. I intended to bury it to ease my mind, but when I returned to where I left the corpse, all remains of the sheep were gone. Did this creature that woke me up took the corpse? I had grown sick of these mysterious incidents and only wanted it to end, so I swiftly went away in the direction of the buildings, though in all honesty, I was also filled with panic and anguish; just wanting to forget...
Late in the evening, I approached the apparently small village. It consisted of several wooden houses, some yards that were used to grow food, a water supply well and a building made of stone, that was maybe the town-hall or something like that.
But from the second on I entered the dirt track that was supposed to be the walkway, I knew that my hopes were in vain. All the doors were open, and after searching for a while, looking for other human beings, I gave up. The village was abandoned, probably for quiet a long time, since the cultivated areas in the yards were already filled with all sorts of food, though strangely, non of the buildings were overgrown or damaged at all.
The sun rose past the horizon and the moon, alongside an ocean of stars, filled the sky. In the gloomy night, I could spot flickering lights inside some of the buildings in the town. Electricity in this primitive, lost village? I did not question it and considered it a sign of hope, since light meant warmth and protection.
I calmly walked through the streets, but for no apparent reason, I stopped next to the well and leaned over it. I watched the weak reflection of my own face inside the water. It felt so weird, like it was the first time in my life I had seen my own face. Another thing started to bewilder me as well. I had never been thirsty since my awakening, and I still was not. This place follows its own rules, like an anomaly in the real world; something that should not exist. I put my arm in the water, just to relax for a moment and enjoy the coolish sensation of the water on my skin.
I looked at the reflection of my head, when suddenly, it began to deform itself. I saw my own face slowly decaying. It color changed into a rotten green brown, its eyes disappeared, leaving only black sockets behind and pieces of flesh fell out. I starred at it in shock, when out of nowhere, to my unimaginable terror, the reflection jumped out of the water and grabbed my arm.
This thing was a putrid version of myself, like a zombie replica, and it wanted me. It tried to drag me down into the water, but I was stronger and was able to escape its grab, though I stumbled and fell on my back.
As I tried to stand up again, I could hear it. It groaned in such a disgusting and painful way, that it nearly made me puke. I could see it slurping out of the well, realizing that it was clothed just like me as well, starring at me with its black, hollow, frenetic eyes. I knew it wanted me dead.
Fueled by panic and the will to survive, I rushed into the next building with a source of light inside and closed the door behind me. I cowered in a corner, far away from windows next to some shelves. It banged against the door with such a force that it was a wonder it did not break apart. My heart pumped my blood so hard, it drowned every other sound off, and I was close to hyperventilation, but I put myself together. Passing out could easily mean death.
After what seemed to be an eternity, it stopped and silence ruled the area. I was save inside and I breathed a sigh of relief. It was gone and I was tired. My body calmed down and my face drowned in tears, I laid down on the ground and closed my eyes, trying to fall asleep in the hope that next day, I could go outside safely. I was not sure, but I thought that in my dreams, I sometimes could hear its groan. Its ferocious, ravening groan; near me, just outside the window.
Day 3Edit
I woke up to find myself alone in the village, with the exception of some animal herds that grazed not far away from here. As long as I was save, it did not bother me, though I avoided eye contact.
I found out that the sources of light are not bulbs, but small fires that burned away a very long-lasting material attached to the walls. I realized one thing. Knowing that things like bulbs and electricity exist must mean that I must have memories from a life prior to this hell. At least I thought so. Maybe they were just my imagination. You may never know.
The place I woke up in was the village's library. I determined myself to find out more about this place, but not before eating something. Luckily, I did not have to end another animals life, since there was enough food growing right next to me. Grabbing out some vegetables, leaving some seeds in so they could grow and feed me later, cooking the food over a fireplace and eventually dining a delicious mush.
I was sort of proud of myself. I survived so many obstacles, even monsters, and I knew that with the given resources, I could hold on in this abandoned place for a long time.
I began to read through the books of the library, since like I said, I wanted knowledge, because everyone knows that knowledge is power. I found out that the former villagers seemed to be aware of monstrous creatures like the one I fled from, and that light could shoo them away, though only intense sunlight could truly scare them back into the dark.
I immediately acted and took some of the material used to fuel the flames and placed it all around the village. I ignited it with sparks emitted from smashing stones into teach other. The light settled my mind, and I could at least feel save when the shadows of the dark engulfed the town once more.
Sparse descriptions of their behavior and appearances were included in the books, though they were nugatory, as I have already beheld one of them with my own eyes.
Unfortunately, there was nothing about this black thing that observed me that one night. Considering what happened last night, I was sure that it was not just my imagination playing tricks on me. Or maybe everything was just a hallucination, and in reality, I was stammering in a white, comfortable padded cell, suffering from some sort of schizophrenia. I did not know. I could not be sure. It did not matter. I would survive, no matter what.
Day 4Edit
I found an empty book and a feather with some ink. I needed to express myself, so I started to note down everything that happened to me. My memories are somewhat fragile, but I remembered everything that sought my demise.
Maybe, if I would not survive, I could at least warn others who might be cursed by the same cruel fate. I used the first page to sparsely introduce myself. I knew that maybe one day, I maybe would need it as a reminder of what and who I truly am.
Day 7Edit
I read myself through everything that was necessary and gathered items from the houses. They for sure will be useful, especially the bucket to water the vegetables.
I tried to leave the village and scouted the surrounding area, but every time I left the comfortable warmth of the lights, I began to feel forlorn and unprotected, like an infant who is unable to leave the soft grab of its mother. And every time I looked down, I saw more and more footprints, sometimes even scratches, on the ground.
Every time I sleep in one of the comfortable houses, I know that these creatures are gathering around the village, staring at me with their demonic eyes, lingering for my flesh. I'm always assuring myself that I am strong and that I am save inside the village, but I know that these thoughts will soon be overshadowed by trepidation.
I just feel so alone here, yet I know I never am.
Day 14Edit
I could see it in the night. This black, to some extent humane being. It's real. It's real I tell you.
I stared at it trough the windows and it stared back at me. These eyes. These eyes that desire to haunt me. These shrouded, dark eyes. They are like fire in eye sockets, so threatening, yet so appealing. I felt the urge to come closer to these beautiful eyes and touch them.
This thing is stealing my sanity like a Nixie, and I love it for doing so. Sanity is a weakness in this world. Instinct is the only thing you need to survive. I wish it would have stayed longer, but as soon as I blinked, it was gone, though I knew that it was still somewhere out there, watching me. And I was eagerly waiting for it to come.
Day 21Edit
I am not alone anymore! There are people in the village. I talked with them all day long, and I must tell you, they are very good listeners. And even though they are often so shy that they won't reply, I still like them, knowing that I can always count on them.
They seem to be very clunky and stiff, but if you get to know them a bit better, you will understand that they are just taking a break from all the hard work they do. Just standing in one place, like garden gnomes.
And they are always very friendly, too. They always have this joyful, wide grin on their face. The only thing I don't like about them is their somewhat strange habit to always look at me and not blink when I pass them by or talk with them. What should I say? I guess they are just a lovely bunch of jesters.
It is great to socialize again. I can sleep now without worrying too much, since I know that my friends are out there, all the time, always having an eye on me, no matter where I go.
Day 30Edit
I extinguished these stupid lights. They hurt my friends and me, too. I was afraid of the night, but for no reason. Its dreary atmosphere is so incredibly delightful, it's a shame I did not realize that earlier.
And every night, many new friends come into the village and party through the night. They are always banging against my door and want me to join them, but I am no party animal, so I rather rest in my home and enjoy all their pretty faces starring at me through the windows. Starring at me with their bewitching eyes, all the time. They really want to play with me and I would like to play with them, but unfortunately, they are always gone when the sun comes out.
Day XXEdit
I stopped counting the days, as it just doesn't matter anymore. I left the village a couple of days ago. I gathered everything I needed and left. It was a difficult decision, but I had to move on. My friends started to annoy me, so I got rid off them. But everywhere I looked in this dratted village, it reminded me of my pals. It just bugged me. I just wanted to be alone.
Well, not completely alone. Since some days, fog always covers everything up. I can barely see anything that was not just a few inches away from me, with the exception of a special someone of course. Every now and then, I can spot these beautiful, blazing eyes, sometimes far away from me, sometimes extremely close to me. And when I am lucky, I close my eyes and can feel its gentle claws stroking my cheek.
Even though I have no idea where I am going, I know I am in good hands. They would always be there. These beautiful eyes. Guiding me. I wish I could have such pretty eyes like my friend.
Day XXXEdit
I am free, unbound from anything. My friend showed me a place so unbelievably beautiful, you cannot even imagine it. It is just beyond your comprehension. A world beyond your dreams, yet a place your heart will painfully desire for all eternity.
And there were so many others, that were just as beautiful as him... or her. And they all greeted me and cheered for me. They were so kind to me, like a family, a family I never had in this lonesome world.
They brought me to a spring, and they wanted me to drink their nectar. It tasted so good, and it made me feel so unburdened. I knew they were my friends and happily, as I wrote these last words, I fell asleep in their arms.
Last NotesEdit
I woke up in a place I could barely remember, but quickly, I got reminded. It was the beach. The beach where everything began.
I felt weird, like something inside me changed. But it was no bad sensation. No. It was absolutely ecstatic. I felt so powerful, so divine. It was their gift, even though it cost me their friendship. Again, I am all alone. I don't need all this junk I carried with me for such a long time, so I will just leave all these things here in a box I carved out of wood.
I went to the shore and it was then I realized the true extend of their gift. It purified my soul and heart. They gave me something I always desired. I have so beautiful eyes, free from weaknesses, free form the burdens of life. I have everything I ever wanted.
I will leave you now, stranger. I will take my path, though I don't know what exactly it is or where it will lead me. Maybe, we will meet one day and I can give you the same beautiful present this world gave me, too. Though for now, it doesn't matter. I... I won.
I was a nobody, a piece of dirt, a filthy animal; but became someone with my new existence. My new existence as Brian. I, Brian, am stupendous, no, I, Brian, am the apex. The pinnacle of survival and existence. I am the first limb of the food chain of this world... my world... where everything belongs to me, and only me.....
I am Brian, its hero...
The hero... Brian...

This volume has as its focus the role of the Marshall Plan as both a force in the transformation of European Economic practices and a stimulus to political integration in Europe. This organizing theme is framed in terms of two other issues that are central to contemporary debates in international political economy and geopolitical studies: the origins and development of the Cold War, and the growing globalisation of the world economy. In relating the Marshall Plan to these issues, this book goes beyond the typical diplomatic history approach to place the Plan in the context of both the political economy of late twentieth-century Europe, and the impact of American models of business and government that came with the Plan.

Resurrection Fighting Alliance 14
Resurrection Fighting Alliance 14 - Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Event on April 11, 2014 in Cheyenne, Wyoming USA
RFA 14 takes place April 11 at the City of Cheyenne Ice and Events Center in Wyoming and marks the organization's debut in the state. The main card airs live on AXS TV. In the headliner, Wyoming's Matt Manzanares (7-2) meets Junior Maranhao (9-2) for the organization's vacant flyweight title. In the co-headliner, Mark Dickman (8-1) meets Raoni Barcelos in a featherweight title eliminator. "I'm excited to bring the biggest MMA event to the state of Wyoming since UFC 6 went there 19 years ago," RFA President Ed Soares stated. "Matt Manzanares and Mark Dickman are two of the most exciting fighters in RFA history, and Junior Maranhao and Raoni Barcelos are two of the most talented prospects in Brazil. Manzanares vs. Higo will make an outstanding flyweight title fight, and the winner of Dickman vs. Barcelos will fight for the featherweight title in their next bout. Manzanares, who suffered a decision loss to Zach Makovsky (who later vacated the belt and signed with the UFC) at RFA 11 in his most recent bout, fights for the fifth time under the RFA banner when he meets Maranhao, who is riding a 6 fight winning streak. Dickman, meanwhile, has won three straight fights via knockout and looks for his third win in four RFA fights when he meets Barcelos, an undefeated Shooto Brazil vet who scored a decision win over WEC/UFC vet Tyler Toner at RFA 11. Also on the card, Tyler Voth (5-1) meets Jeimeson Saudino (8-2) in a flyweight title eliminator, and Jocelyn Lybarger (2-1) takes on Rosa Acevedo (1-0) in a 120-pound catchweight affair.

Heli-skiing (Randy Lincks photo)
Heli-skiing in the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region offers steep descents and varied terrain on two mountain ranges: the Cariboos and the Chilcotins.
Peaks here receive good snowfall and stable weather. There's a mix of terrain that caters to fearless skiers looking for sheer slopes and steep couloirs, as well as those that prefer gentler wide-open bowls and glaciers.
Heli-skiing operators in the region include Bella Coola Heli-Sports and TLH Heli-Skiing at Tyax Resort. Spend the morning carving fresh tracks on a glacier and the afternoon fishing on a river, or stay onboard a boat instead of a traditional heli-ski lodge. It's also possible to combine heli-skiing with classic downhill skiing at Whistler Blackcomb on a customized tour.
Read More
Heli-skiing tenures are spread across the Coast and Cariboo mountains, whose towering peaks include the highest mountain in BC – Mount Waddington. More than 7.6m/25ft of high density snow falls annually onto steep vertical descents with challenging ice fields, trees, glacier bowls, chutes and couloirs.
Bella Coola, home to Bella Coola Heli-Sports is sandwiched between the fjord-cut coastline and the Coast Mountains, so guests are treated to fantastic heli-skiing in isolated wilderness. TLH Heli-Skiing's base lodge overlooks scenic Tyaughton Lake and is only a short flight from Whistler.
At Bella Coola Heli-Sports, the easy part is heli-skiing. The hard part? Choosing which of the three mountain ranges to ski and which of the eight tours to book. Choices include "Rod & Ski," where guests can glide down corn snow-covered slopes in the morning and cast a line for salmon in the afternoon. Lodges range from an authentic western-style ranch to private chalets in the wilderness.
TLH Heli-Skiing's standard heli-ski packages feature unlimited vertical, small groups, and virtually no wait times. With a tenure bordering Whistler, they offer combo tours that include downhill skiing at Whistler Blackcomb.

Profit From a Consultative Approach
Its not what your clients want to invest in. Its understanding what makes them tick.
July 12, 2007
by John J. Bowen, Jr.
CPAs and other advisors who are achieving the greatest success in a financial advisory capacity today are those who are true consultants to their clients. How do they do it? They work in real partnership with their clients over time. They use an in-depth discovery process to uncover clients' most important financial values and goals — which enables them to learn how to best serve each client. As they work in close consultation with their clients, they build lasting relationships and cultivate enduring trust.
The consultative approach stands in direct contrast to the investment generalist approach still employed by many advisors. After using a relatively brief fact-finding process — typically a checklist of questions about the client's investment goals, time horizon and risk tolerance — the investment generalist makes appropriate product recommendations. The transaction is completed and the advisor-client relationship usually never goes any deeper.
The success of the consultative approach hinges on the advisor's ability to understand the client on a deep level. This understanding goes beyond the facts that investment generalist gathers — that the client wants to send his daughter to an Ivy League school and to retire in 10 years, for example — and instead goes to what really makes the client tick — the biggest motivators, greatest joys and hidden fears.
To gain this level of understanding, use a comprehensive discovery process to create a Total Client Profile. This is a picture of the seven critical areas where you must have a thorough understanding of your clients in order to serve them well.
The discovery process pays a substantial dividend: more satisfied clients who are more likely to provide both additional assets to manage and qualified referrals. This in turn leads to greater revenues and ultimately, higher net income.

In recent months, long-distance flight such as those from the USA to India are posting record low fares. Recent searches on Kayak have yielded rates as low as $530 round trip. Typical fares from the USA to India are $1,200 -$1500 for coach seats
Naturally, many factors determine airfare, but if you can be somewhat flexible in your travel, you are likely to find some extraordinary deals.

Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake
READY IN: 1hr 20mins
Recipe by Vino Girl
From Kraft.
Top Review by wyojess
I made this cheesecake for Thanksgiving and it was just ok. The crust was outstanding, but the cake itself was not as creamy as I was hoping for and would not set up. I baked it at 325 degrees for the 55 minutes the recipe recommends, then another 25 minutes (checking it every 5-10)and it was still really liquidy. I am thinking it might not be a good recipe for someone living at high altitude (>7000 ft).

jyst wondering if i should even try
Most Helpful Girl
I like how guys are trying to make it seem girls are shallow, when they pursue straight 10s and then bitch about the girls being just as shallow00|00|2
There are a lot of good looking guys out there who pursue average girls. Even good looking fit and built guys who pursue overweight girls. The only time I've seen hot girls go out with average guys or overweight guys is when the guys are rich. As simple as that.
- Show AllShow Less
@SenNausicaa in my experience, men aren't any more likely to date an average looking girl than a woman is
Maybe guys are getting more shallow in the younger generations. Most of my observation pool is late 20s to late 30s, I can't say I have exclusive info on everyone or even just that range though.

And he looks like Mark Twain with a scythe.
Regardless of the truth that age is a disease with which we are all infected, we still give at least some effort to chase that mirage of eternal beauty and brawn with unlimited energy (like nearly everyone else, so don't judge, assholes). We exercise, we drink a shit ton of water, we count calories for Cthulhu's sake. Then, we reward ourselves and lose a "little bit" of discipline when the weekend arrives.
Let me elaborate.
After a fun weekend in the tropical queue line teaming with drunkards and teens in tank tops that is Central Florida, we came to the conclusion that our indulgences were becoming a little bit more frequent than our discipline in a healthy lifestyle. The agreement (okay, okay, it was more like a challenge) was that, after our little trip, the boyfriend and I would persist a healthier living situation that included eating foods that were considerably healthier than just a plate of greasy, fried chicken tenders or a buttery, charred, grilled cheese sandwich. Holy crap. My mouth is watering right now. We even promised to cease drinking that beloved yeasty bread-drink (with the exception of Saturdays) in order to reverse the evidence of our youthful endeavors.
They're actually in line, waiting to get in line, to get into the line to get into Florida.
Yeah, that was harder than we thought. On the morning of Day One, the boyfriend and I did our thing: he ran a gazillion miles while I walked my little fat ass around (I can't run, remember?) for a good half-hour to sweat out a few calories while I thought about life and what the hell smelled so much like shit outside and how it was magnified by the hellish heat that is Savannah/Hell/Your Worst Oven Nightmare. That part wasn't so bad, mainly because that was what we had been doing for a short while before our "pact."
Lunch wasn't too terrible either. After ordering some delicious/kind of healthy noms from Zunzi's (now nationally known!) and avoiding eating all the bread, we walked off half our sandwiches through even more sweltering heat-filled humidity and sadness just to get back to the car. Again, not so bad. I mean, we may have been, say... a little bit cranky, but we were sure it was from the heat. And Great Poseidon's Salty Asshole, it was fucking hot outside.
Those parts weren't so bad. What was so bad was avoiding Starbucks and Leopold's Ice Cream Shop. Or chocolate. Now that was a challenge. And - again - it was too hot to do anything productive or entertaining other than just laying about and watching movies.
It didn't help.
We wanted beer and pizza and candy and ice cream with chocolate sprinkles and... I could go on, but I just came. We couldn't handle our withdrawals. I wanted to have something in my mouth-hole so bad (that's not appropriate to think that way, you sickos) that I ate grape tomatoes while watching American Reunion in bed. And yeah, it did look weird. We were so uncomfortable and listless, because we had cloistered ourselves in the apartment to keep ourselves from yummy evil that we couldn't figure out if we were hot or cold. Seriously. It was 5 million fucking degrees outside, the air conditioning was on with a fan aimed directly at us, and we were under the covers. What the hell was wrong with us?!
It was strangely similar to Dewey Cox's rehab experience.
What? It's good for the heart!
See what I mean? The Inner Fat Kid is SATAN. He lurks in your stomach, instilling fear by growling at you throughout the day. He does something weird to your nose that makes you smell chocolate from eighteen miles away. He even makes excuses for you, like, "You'll only eat one chip," or "If you eat 86% Cacao, it'll be healthy or some shit like that. I don't care, I'm just hungry and it's there." How does one fight such a beast? No, really? Because I don't know, and I really want to know. Like right now.
How do you hit an imaginary fat kid?
I guess we really can't beat the inner fat kid. He will wear our bodies like a burst package of buttermilk biscuits, letting his pudgy evil seep out through the cracks of our cardboard jails, screaming for a candy bar or to be let out in the mile-long buffet line at a Florida restaurant. All we can really do is ignore that little shithead until we can't take it anymore or aim to get food poisoning and gain a taste aversion to everything delectable.
Eh. Fuck it. I'm going to have another slice of pizza. (But it's okay, because I had a salad.)

Thread: Loading games > 4 GB
09-12-2010 #1YouArePwnedMan Guest
Loading games > 4 GB
So, I downloaded Mafia.2.PS3.READ.NFO-DUPLEX, but how I can move it to my external drive. FAT32 limits file size to 4 GB, and NTFS is not supported by PS3. That's what was in .NFO:
Be aware that fat32 filesystem can't deal with files bigger than 4gb. So some Games can't be ripped to an external hdd - only to the internal ps3 hdd.
Internal HDD! That will be even better for me. So, what should I do? I've seen some videos, playing Mafia 2 with another disc inside.
09-12-2010 #2Gusbacher Guest
Try the PS3 FTP. With this you can put the games directly to your internal drive. Just set the right names on your Folder. Start ps3 Backup Manager and you will see the new Game.
09-12-2010 #3NinjaOptimus Guest
download the ps3 ftp app that was released by CJPC. put it on a usb flash drive, connect the us3 flash drive to ps3, install the ftp app on ps3.
download a windows ftp app like cute ftp or filezilla on PC.
- open ftp app on PS3, enable the ftp service from within that app.
- open ftp client on pc. transfer the game folder from PC to ps3 internal hdd at the following directory /dev_hdd0/game/LUAN12345/GAMEZ/
09-12-2010 #4msr Guest
You do not upload a iso, you upload the folder. So most games will be ok with fat32 limits, even though the total game is over 4gb. Remember 1 file needs to be over teh 4gb limit not the game folder.
09-12-2010 #5djhazardous Guest
Yeah, I don't think Mafia 2 has any files over 4GB?
09-12-2010 #6YouArePwnedMan Guest
It's not good for me to upload games on my 8 GB stick. Thank you NinjaOptimus.

Follow this Pinterest business strategy to find your business success. More and more businesses are joining Pinterest to promote their products and services. Is yours one of them? If not, don't be left out. Get your business on Pinterest, showcase your images and promote your business.
Pinterest Business Strategy
Tip #1 – Create a Business Account or Convert an Existing Account
To begin visit the Pinterest Business Page.
To convert your personal account to a business account click on the red button that says Convert your existing account. If you are new to Pinterest or don't want to convert your personal profile to a business account, click on the link under the red button that says, New to Pinterest? Join as a business.
For more information on how to set up a business account please read Pinterest Business Page.
Tip #2 – Verify Your Website
Verify your website by first going into your Settings. Hover over your name and select Settings from the dropdown menu. Beside where it says Website under Profile Info, type in your website address. Click on Verify Website.
You will have to download the HTML file to your computer and then upload it to your web server. After you have done that click on the button that says, Complete process. If you did everything correctly you will see a success message.
For more information on verifying your website please read Verify Your Website on Pinterest.
Tip #3 – Add Buttons
Along with new business pages, Pinterest has introduced new business buttons for your website. Although the Pin It Button is not really new, because it came out before business pages did, it is a handy little button to have on your website. Having Pin It buttons on your website makes it that much easier for your visitors to pin your images.
The Follow Button for websites makes it easier for your visitors to follow you directly from you website. When your visitor clicks on the follow button they are taken to your Profile page where they can easily follow you. Your button is even personalized with your business name on it!
Tip #4 – Add Widgets
Pinterest has introduced two new widgets for you to use on your website to promote your business on Pinterest. To begin, visit the Pinterest Widget Builder page.
The Profile Widget is perfect for business because it allows you to display up to 30 of your most recent pins. If you want to promote your business on Pinterest and gain a following, having the profile widgets allows your visitors to see a preview of what you have to offer on your Pinterest profile before they decide to start following you.
The Board Widget allows your to display up to 30 of your favorite board's latest pins.
Tip #5 – Theme Boards
Create boards that are all on one theme and pin related images onto them. Having a miscellaneous board with every type of image under the sun on it doesn't provide your followers with a clear view of what the board is about. Having a board titled Affiliate Marketing, on the other hand, tells your potential followers exactly what your board is all about.
Think of your boards in terms of a department store. If you go into a department store it is sectioned into different departments. There are different departments for clothing, shoes, pharmacy, hardware, etc. Set up your Pinterest boards in much the same way.
Tip #6 – Business Boards
You can create as many boards as you like. Create a separate business board or boards to display images of your own products and services so that your pins don't get lost in amongst the pins you pin from other people. Once you are finished creating your own business boards you can create boards to display other people's images you find of interest that you feel will be of some benefit to your followers.
You can mix all of the images up and have your business images displayed on boards along with images you pin from other people, as long as you make sure that you pin them on your own business boards as well, otherwise your potential followers may not see them when they are scrolling through your boards.
Tip #7 – Business Logo
Use your company logo as your profile picture. The optimal image size is 160px X160px. If you use an image that is not 160px X160px it will be automatically re-sized by Pinterest and may become distorted.
Tip #8 – Board Titles
Be creative when naming your boards. The more interesting a board title is the more attention it will receive. Once you have captured their attention with the board title, they will want to click on your board to see what images you have pinned.
Don't make your boards too long or they won't fit in the space allotted for them. Only a portion of the board title will be displayed. ( …) will be displayed for the rest of the title.
Tip #9 – Board Description
Write a detailed, informative description for your board. Doing so will help to increase your following.
Use keywords in your description. Search engines are indexing individual boards. That means that your board could show up in the search results.
Tip #10 – Pin Description
Write a detailed, informative description for your pin. Let people know exactly what your pin is about.
As with the board description, use your keywords in your pin description. Search engines are indexing individual pins as well as boards.
To help make your business successful, use all 10 tips of the Pinterest business strategy.

UK Family Law
UK Family Law Questions Answered by Verified Experts
Are you certain she has received the divorce petition?
Has she stated why she is unwilling to respond?
When was the petition actually sent to her?
Do you have a rough idea of where she actually is?
Ok. The court will only dispense with service in the most exceptional cases where it is practically impossible to serve the respondent and all other duties to trace them have been discharged. This is not the case here I'm afraid.
Firstly, I would give the country where the petition was issued to check that they still have it listed.
If you are satisfied that your informal attempts to trace her are not getting you anywhere then you may have to instruct an enquiry agent in order for them to trace here. You can google "enquiry agents" in the area where you suspect she may be. Chances are that they will be able to trace her.
Once you have an address or a place where you know she is likely to be you should then instruct a process server, although the tracing agency may be able to do this for you. You should say that you wish for them to effect personal service upon her. They will attend where they think she shall be and if there they will serve her the papers and then submit an affidavit to court confirming that she has received a copy of the petition/acknowledgement etc.
They divorce will then proceed on this basis, as this is evidence that she is aware of the divorce.
If this is useful please kindly click accept so that I may be rewarded for my time. You will be free to ask follow up questions.Kind regards,

Kathryn & Glenn
We are so excited to see our family grow through adoption AND most importantly, we are so thankful that you are making such a brave, courageous decision for your baby. We both grew up in loving homes in Georgia and met in college at the University of Georgia. Glen is pretty confident that Kathryn saw him in his workout clothes and fell in love, and she respectfully disagrees. But one thing we did agree on was our faith in Jesus, which has been the center of our relationship since. We've been married for ten years now and have seen our marriage grow stronger and stronger through many adventures and trials. We have been blessed with two wonderful children, and we know God is leading us to adoption. He has spoken to us through His Word, our friends, and our experiences; and we know His plan has already been made. We love to travel, cook, be with friends and family and cheer for our favorite college football team. But what we love to do the most is to be PARENTS. Parenthood has given us a glimpse of how much God loves us as His children, because we can't imagine loving anything or anyone more than our kids. We have learned that we would truly do ANYTHING for them and for our future child. Natalie is a spunky, loving 4 year old girl who loves sparkly skirts, running everywhere, and using her imagination. And Graham is a cuddly, energetic 2 year old boy who loves his trucks and is a big flirt. They are such sweet children and are very excited to welcome home their new brother or sister! We look forward to meeting you and are praying for you and your baby often.
We are excited to welcome to our family a boy or girl, birth to six months, through open, semi-open or closed adoption.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know our family. We are so thankful for the chance to share our lives with you and most importantly the love that we have for our kids, and the child that God will share with us in the near future. We are excited that we have been called by God to adoption and we feel so grateful that we will be able to share that love with you if you feel called to choose our family. We are a family that loves to smile, laugh, encourage and do everything together. Our kids Natalie (4) and Graham (2) are the loves of our lives and bring us so much joy. The depth of the care that we have for our children only makes us even more excited about sharing that love. We met at the University of Georgia while on a bike ride to raise funds for a college ministry that we both attended. We love college football and especially our Georgia Bulldogs. We have been married for over 10 years now and love to spend time together, doing everything. Kathryn is a pediatric Nurse Anesthetist at a local hospital and Glen is a General Manager for an IT consulting firm. We both enjoy our jobs very much. In our free time we both enjoy working out as well as spending time with friends in our neighborhood and at church. Most of all we enjoy spending time with Graham and Natalie doing just about anything that brings a smile and laughter to their faces. Their favorite things to do include: playing in the bounce house, swinging / sliding at the park, gymnastics, ballet, and swimming at the pool in the summer. Even though we have not met as of yet, we know that you are a brave, strong and courageous woman. You are making a decision that we are eternally grateful for and we know that God is looking at you at this very moment with love. We hope you feel the peace of God as you walk through this difficult decision and time. Thank you for considering our family as a home for your little baby. You have our commitment that we will both love him/her as our own for all our lives and always include you in his/her very special story.

September 10, 2013
Fans of AMC's The Killing will be saddened to hear that the series has been cancelled once again. The cable network has decided not to bring the crime drama back for a fourth season.
Originally cancelled after Season 2, The Killing was revived after a strong backlash from fans when it was made known that a third season was not planned. Season 3 returned to decent ratings but ultimately ended flat compared with Season 2's numbers, which led to the show's cancellation in the first place.

My youngest daughter recently moved to a 'big girl' bed and we removed all the nursery furniture from her room.
What was left looked pretty bare, but I didn't have a fortune to spend for redecorating.
My purchases- total: $58
One curtain panel that matched the quilt (handed down from big sis): On clearance at Target for $10
4 new drawer pulls and a can of enamel spray paint: Lowe's for $16
2 sets of vinyl wall decals: Etsy for $32
Curtains: Target only had one panel left in the color I wanted... but I really wanted a valence. Well- for $10 I had almost 3 yards of fabric. I cut the valence into 3 sections, pieced them together, then sewed a simple valence with just a hemmed edge and a tunnel at the top.
Tada! New curtains:
Updated nightstands:
I had these two nightstands knocking around my house. They were a yard sale find about 15 years ago. Though the nightstands originally matched they no longer had matching tops or even hardware...
After painting (and drying) I then added some of the vinyl decals I bought to the tops of the tables. I also replaced the mismatched hardware with new matching pulls.

text: Foundations of Computational Intelligence Volume 2: Approximation Reasoning: Theoretical Foundations and Applications Human reasoning usually is very approximate and involves various types of - certainties. Approximate reasoning is the computational modelling of any part of the process used by humans to reason about natural phenomena or to solve real world problems. The scope of this book includes fuzzy sets, Dempster-Shafer theory, multi-valued logic, probability, random sets, and rough set, near set and hybrid intelligent systems. Besides research articles and expository papers on t- ory and algorithms of approximation reasoning, papers on numerical experiments and real world applications were also encouraged. This Volume comprises of 12 chapters including an overview chapter providing an up-to-date and state-of-the research on the applications of Computational Intelligence techniques for - proximation reasoning. The Volume is divided into 2 parts: Part-I: Approximate Reasoning - Theoretical Foundations Part-II: Approximate Reasoning - Success Stories and Real World Applications Part I on Approximate Reasoning - Theoretical Foundations contains four ch- ters that describe several approaches of fuzzy and Para consistent annotated logic approximation reasoning. In Chapter 1, "Fuzzy Sets, Near Sets, and Rough Sets for Your Computational Intelligence Toolbox" by Peters considers how a user might utilize fuzzy sets, near sets, and rough sets, taken separately or taken together in hybridizations as part of a computational intelligence toolbox. In multi-criteria decision making, it is necessary to aggregate (combine) utility values corresponding to several criteria (parameters).

Noticed again today, while finishing the final edit of my book, how my brain follows a sometimes predictable course of logic. I made some corrections a month ago on my kindle, but accidentally found the same errors on the computer version and I corrected them the same exact way. I have also noticed this when I see videos of myself responding to stimuli. I will make the same comment or statement while watching, as I do in the video a second later. Crap, this must mean I only have a limited number of responses to any given situation…that's disheartening, but logical..shows that I am a product of a finite set of memories and inputs. I guess it also shows that my brain sets a limited number of outputs, so it doesn't have to think as much for every exchange in life.

New Release: More of my Memoirs…
After working on my memoirs for quite a long time, I have come to the conclusion that I will have to wait to publish it in its entirety for later in life. Several people have asked me not to publish parts that relate to them, which I see as some of the best parts of the book, and it would not be complete without them. Instead, I have decided to publish some of the non-sensitive parts of the book here on my blog. I find it a shame to have written them and just have them sit on my computer for no one to read.

1936 is complete!!
1936 is finally complete! The novel came out to be a little over 90,000 words or about 400 pages. The reviews have been fantastic so far and I am really excited to get this out. I am in the editing phase now, but should be done by the end of the month and then it's off to the publishers to see who will accept it.
1936's progress…
The prequel epic love story hit 26,000 words today, approximately 100 pages of this new book. It is now about half the size of Ringship Discretion, but I expect it to be 2 to 3 times larger than Ringship when I am finished. It should be out in the spring, if all goes well.

Tunisian Carrot Salad
Recipe by Leslie in Texas
Come explore the tastes of the sunny Mediterranean! This doubles easily and can be made ahead- goes well with Turkish Zucchini Pancakes. Explore the world from your kitchen!
Top Review by Lorac
I am addicted to this easy to make and colorful dish. Sweet carrots in a spicy vinegary dressing, tamed with fresh cilantro. I didn't use 1/4 tsp of cayenne. I'm a Yankee and that amount equals my total consumption for a year, so one shake is enough for me. I don't like cilantro, but some how I knew it was important to this dish. I was brave and added 3 tbls and I am so glad I did. The cilantro mellows the vinegar and accents the other flavor. This is the first time I have enjoyed fresh cilanto and I keep going back for another fork full! It's even better chilled, so it is the perfect make ahead dish for any occassion.

Tonight I look forward to another of our D'Music'a concerts. They are always a treat for me – an opportunity to see our choirs be acknowledged publicly for their consistent rehearsals, their improved sound together with each season and an opportunity to see family and friends to experience what's possible with a dementia diagnosis.
This concert is a bit different and I'm particularly excited to celebrate with everyone because this time our choir members have not only contributed to the D'Music'a choir but have also given their time to work with over a dozen students from the Perse School. Both groups have come together to form an intergenerational choir which will perform tonight. These upper sixth form students stepped up as part of the school's community outreach project to volunteer with individuals with a dementia diagnosis. They didn't start singing immediately, first we re-considered past experiences volunteering in spaces like acute hospitals and care homes and discussed why this experience would be different. After learning about what happens for a person with a dementia diagnosis through workshops and talks from experts, the students spent an afternoon with participants of the Portals to the World museum programme participating alongside the alumni attending the session, an opportunity to focus on abilities over disabilities.
Then the music started and for this last school term, the students and the community choir members have rehearsed under the guidance of the School's music director and a graduate pianist. An opportunity to sit side by side and speak openly about what it's like to live with dementia. I have to admit I wasn't quite sure what relationships would develop — it turned out to be a lovely co-volunteering experience that both groups took very seriously.
Considering the students' early perceptions of dementia were quite tragic, including terms such as vulnerable, anger, frustration, distraught, helpless and sadness, the community members and I have a great respect for them for stepping up and being open to trying something new. I really think they have enjoyed their efforts and tonight we'll celebrate them.

text: Just got back last night - we had lots of fun, but one thing really pissed me off. The people approaching & asking "Hey where you from?" and then wanting to survey me, or me to watch some timeshare BS (I think that's what he wanted). The timeshare guy really gave us attitude when we told him we were leaving at 7 am the next morning & couldnt come to their breakfast & listen to their spiel. "Why are you leaving so early? North Carolina is only 8 hours away!" Then he told us we could get free HHN tickets for Saturday night & proceeded to explain what HHN was - DUH we just said we are leaving Saturday morning!!!

Connections are everything. They influence who gets job interviews and offers. Now it seems they may even influence who gets the office cold.
Having lunch with someone who's sneezing and coughing puts you at risk of getting sick, but that risk appears to be outweighed by the health benefit of knowing many different kinds of people, according to a study published last week in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
People with the most diverse network of family, friends, acquaintances and professional colleagues were four times less likely to catch colds as those with the sparsest ties, the study found. In fact, the lack of connections was worse than other risk factors like low vitamin C intake, stress and smoking.
The finding is yet another piece of a growing research puzzle linking social interactions with low stress, high immune system response and a long life, says Dr. Sheldon Cohen, the lead author and a psychiatry professor at Carnegie Mellon University. The question is, what's the mechanism?
One idea is that relationships act as a psychological buffer against stress, which suppresses certain immune responses, says Dr. Cohen. ''People with diverse social networks interpret stress differently,'' he said. ''It's less severe for them because they have ways of distracting themselves from it.'' Another possibility is that good social support prevents depression, which also weakens some immune functions.
Dr. David Spiegel, a psychiatrist at the Stanford University School of Medicine, offered another theory. ''If you've been exposed to more social networks, you've been exposed to more viruses, and that may strengthen your immune system,'' he said. SUSAN GILBERTContinue reading the main story

It's time for the double-barrelled WDDTY-McTaggart spam shoot again. Seriously, what idiot imagined that sending subscribers to one list exactly the same emails from a second list they never signed up for was a smart marketing move? Oh, right, McTaggart. Who else?
McTaggart's clearly getting jittery, and it's everybody's fault but hers that her precious monthly bundle of lies is under attack. This is just in:
Meet the people who would dictate your health care
Dictate health care? Isn't that a bit over the top? I haven't seen anybody in Parliament sponsoring a Bill to prevent people refusing treatment, even for serious conditions, and opting for dumbfuckery.
As you know, we have been the target of a concerted campaign to get the store chains to stop stocking us. The architects of this campaign are the same people who spend a good deal of time attacking and harassing alternative practitioners of every variety.
Nope, they're not being targeted qua fringe therapists. They're being targeted qua blatant liars in their marketing blurb. And being asked for evidence. I know Sandra Hermann-Courtney thinks being asked for evidence is hate speech (no, gentle reader, this is not exaggeration on my part). Am I to conclude that you have the same paranoid mentality, Lynne?
And now, from the Dept. of Hasn't A Fucking Clue:
Their numbers aren't large (there're only about 80 of them in total), and they aren't well followed (Alan Henness of the Nightingale Collaboration, for instance, has just 462 followers on Twitter; Simon Singh, just 44 actively following him), but they are well organized and fuelled by a good deal of self-righteous passion about their mission, which is to stamp out what they view as quackery (ie, natural medicine of every variety, particularly the likes of homeopathy).
Learn to read, woman. Alan Henness follows 462 accounts; quite a lot more follow him. Simon Singh follows 44 people, with all of 54k following him. That's a lot more than are following our Lynne, who clocks in at around 17K followers. I see we've also gone from the previous rant's "handful" to "about 80". Ye gods, those skeptics must breed like rabbits!
By the way, quackery is only "natural medicine" if you consider that doing nothing (at best), and charging large amounts of money for it, is natural medicine.
So we thought we should shine a light on the qualifications of the most vocal proponents of a group who believe they have the right to determine what you can or can't read about your health or indeed the kinds of medical treatments you should be allowed to have access to.
What What Doctors Don't Tell You Doctors Don't Tell You
Of those who can be found on the GMC List of Registered Medical Practitioners, one has been issued with a warning, one has relinquished his registration, and all of them advocate dubious interventions, some of which have been shown to do more harm than good.
By all means. First though, let's shine a light on WDDTY's qualifications. To start with, we have McTaggart and Hubbard, who have no medical expertise or qualifications whatsoever. Remember this; it's important. They also don't even hack it as journalists, given the quality of their copy. I keep running out of breath trying to read the sentences, so bereft of punctuation are they. Each has their own-brand whackjobbery: McTaggart's "Intention" is just Reiki in an expensive wrapping; while Hubbard has a "Time-Light" plan that he claims cures chronic depression.
Now the so-called doctors on the editorial panel. I invite you to peruse this useful and well-researched post by Josephine Jones, whose only fault is that it classes Harald Gaier as a doctor. McTaggart doesn't like Josephine Jones. We will come to this later.
Simon Singh. Singh is not a medical doctor; he has a Ph.D in particle physics.
Yes, this is common knowledge. He doesn't hide it.
As he often signs his letters 'Dr Singh' when writing to Tesco or our distributors, most stores and media naturally assume that he has medical qualifications.
Please produce these letters where he does this, and explain how you obtained them. Of course, since Simon Singh is quite famous (u jelly, Lynne?), especially in the UK, I think it unlikely that his use of the title "Dr." – which he has every right to – would mislead anybody. No more than, say, Dr. Brian May or Dr. Rowan Williams. I'll leave the next paragraph as-is, since the venomous stupidity of someone who has no history of studying or writing about conventional medicine, other than as an exercise in writing fiction, is most entertaining.
He does not, nor does he have a history of studying or writing about conventional medicine. He's written books about mathematical problems and patterns, codes and code-breaking and even cosmology, but nothing to date about conventional medicine – only one co-authored book (Trick or Treatment?- the clue to the slant is in the title) largely trashing alternative medicine. Singh is the public face of Sense About Science, a charity set up by a holding company in India, whose trustees include Simon Singh and his older brother, Tom, who founded the high street chain New Look. Sense about Science reports that it is supported by donations from a variety of sources, including the Royal Pharmaceutical Society and many pharmaceutically backed charities, such as Cancer UK.
Yes, yes, the "charity set up by a holding company in India" is pure spiteful misrepresentation. Either she hasn't a clue about how charities work, or she couldn't care less as long as it sounds bad. Tom Singh is not on the Board of Trustees, so I'm going for the second option. Now we come to the implied call for harassment, which already went out on Facebook this weekend. I'm removing the employers' names, because we know what fanatics like to do, don't we?
'Josephine Jones'. 'She' is the pseudonym for two people: Michael and Laura Thomason, who live in Warrington. Mike works as a database developer at [redacted] Pharma Solutions; there is a Laura Thomason on Linkedin who works as a supervisor at a [redacted] Coffee Shop, but we can't verify if they are one and the same. If so, there can't be many people popping in and ordering cappuccinos because she and her husband seem to have the time to catalogue WDDTY's every move, which they circulate on Josephine Jones' blog as a constantly updated 'Master List'. Presently, they are carrying out a survey of stores we're in, presumably in hopes they might be able to pick us off, one store at a time. Neither professes to any medical qualifications.
I don't know who Mike Thomason is, but he has nothing to do with Josephine Jones. One of the reasons Laura hesitated to come out from behind the pseudonym was precisely due to bullies like McTaggart trying to sic their followers on her and her family. Female bloggers always get rougher treatment than male bloggers, because sexist brutality. Well done, Lynne, for proving her right. That is what I call balls-out übercuntery.
Guy Chapman, who created a website called 'What What Doctors Don't Tell You Doesn't Tell You', and writes a good deal of bile-filled statements about alternative practitioners, is a software developer for Dell Computers. He's also a member of a choir.
Like me, you may be wondering what all this has to do with the price of fish. Is she jealous of people who seem to lead fuller lives than she does? I do hope she's not mistaking my prose for Guy's, although we are by no means the only contributors to this blog. And talking of bile-filled, Lynne, can we have some evidence for that claim? There's plenty of bile in the missives you've been spitting out over the past year, if by "bile" you mean defamatory statements and hate speech.
Jo Brody works two days a week as a public engagement coordinator for a research project which runs across four sites, including UCL, Queen Mary, City University and Swansea University), studying how to make medical devices safer. Jo's job is to update the website and expand the project's online presence. For the rest of the week she works as an information officer at Diabetes UK. Previously she worked as a secretary for Professor Stephen Wharton. As she freely admits: 'I am not medically trained.'
Nor are you, Lynne. In fact, your qualifications are far worse than Jo's. Incidentally, are you sure you've got the right person? Next name on the list is Alan Henness. Usual distortion of facts and petty-minded sniping applies.
Alan Henness. He and his wife Maria MacLachlan, who live in Harrow, are effectively the Nightingale Collaboration, a tiny organization that was given seed money by Sense About Science, but that spends a prodigious amount of time reporting advertisers and practitioners of alternative medicine to The Advertising Standards Authority. Despite the name, the ASA is not a government body; it's an advertising-industry-sponsored organization with no teeth. The best it can do is place advertisers it deems out of line on the naughty step, listing them on as a 'non-compliant advertiser' on its own website. Evaluations of the advertisements of alternative medicine or practitioners through the ASA are a stacked deck; they are evaluated, as our ads were, by known skeptics like Dr. Edzard Ernst, Simon Singh's co-author of Trick or Treatment?
Now, if the ASA is toothless, why is reporting illicit advertising claims to them bullying and harassment? Make your mind up, doughball. As for the stacked deck, well, that's just the usual quack special pleading. All the ASA asks for is evidence. If you can't back up your claims, tough shit. I'm going to snip a bit, because McTaggart has delusions of being a great investigative journalist and, frankly, all she's doing is demonstrating that the people she hates are more rational and thoughtful than she is. Here's a wee cracker, though:
Maria (Maclachlan ) wrote, in a short précis of what it means to be a humanist: 'Humanists embrace the moral principle known as the Golden Rule. This means we believe that people should aim to treat each other as they would like to be treated themselves – with tolerance, consideration and compassion.'
I wonder if this 'Golden Rule' also includes harassing groups, practitioners or organizations who advocate or advertise alternative medicine?
No, sweetie popkins, it does not mean standing by while the naïve and vulnerable get conned out of their health and wealth by unscrupulous hucksters and charismatic fruitcakes. Lastly, she gets very upset over Andy Lewis, aka @lecanardnoir, because he's made it difficult for her to use ad hominem.
Andy Lewis. Set up the 'Quackometer' site, which he claims to be an experiment in 'critical thinking'. Doesn't reveal what his credentials, education or employment history are – says they 'don't matter' nor does an honest debate of the issues because the wording on websites will, through his own use of critical thinking, offer prima facie evidence of 'quackery'.
It must be really frustrating to be unable to create a diversion by attacking the writer instead of the words. I can only conclude that McTaggart and her cronies are livid that they can't answer criticism on the Quackometer. Not, I hasten to add, because they're not allowed to post. It isn't the WDDTY Facebook page. It's because they have no evidence for their often totally unrealistic and long-debunked claims.
That's who they are. WDDTY, on the other hand, has seven medical doctors on its editorial panel, plus several PhDs and highly qualified practitioners of a number of alternative disciplines.
I refer you again to the Josephine Jones post exposing this august assembly as a bunch of quacks, frauds and profiteering dingbats, irrespective of the letters they have after their names.
Thousands of doctors and health practitioners of every persuasion regularly read WDDTY and comment enthusiastically.
The Facebook page doesn't seem that busy. Or are the enthusiastic comments mostly negative, and therefore deleted? I think you need a large FPI™ order to wash that assertion down.
The two editors of our magazine have been medical science writers for 25 years, and every word in our pages is checked by a science editor with an extensive history of writing and editing medical studies for the pharmaceutical industry.
Bad news, McTaggart and Hubbard: WDDTY, Intention and Time-Light do not qualify as writing about medical science. I see you fail to name your science editor. It seems uncharacteristic that you should use someone in the pharmaceutical industry. After all, you constantly spit on Big Pharma and once issued the challenge to find a drug, other than antibiotics, that had ever cured anything.
Do you want these eight people to be the ones to determine what you can read about your own health care?
I thought there were 80 of us?
If not, write to Tesco today and ask them to re-stock What Doctors Don't Tell You….
Etc. etc. whine, whine. It ends with the now habitual plea to ask Tesco to stock WDDTY again. Being chucked out of Tesco has really hurt, it would seem. Could it be that WDDTY doesn't attract enough subscribers, in spite of the hard sell (every month I see a SPECIAL SUBSCRIPTION OFFER email befouling my inbox), and they desperately need to prey on the innocent who might see it presented in their local supermarket as a genuine health magazine? I suspect so.
All the more reason to encourage all supermarkets and newsagents to drop WDDTY like a mouldy, worm-infested potato. If people are stupid enough to subscribe, fine. But they shouldn't be gulled into buying this crap because it's on the same shelf as publications that don't tell you as if it were solid fact that cancer can be treated with intravenous vitamin C, that HIV doesn't cause AIDS, that vaccines are pure poison, that homeopathy reverses cancer, that electric power lines cause Alzheimer's, that pollution causes diabetes…. and so on.
