Prince William spent his last full day in Australia today touring the area of the state of Victoria devastated by bushfires nearly a year ago.
He was clearly moved and shocked by survivors' tales of the devastating fires which swept through the hilly, wooded country at speeds of up to 100mph on Black Saturday – 7 February 2009 – leaving 173 people dead and destroying 430,000 hectares of woods and pastureland.
The survivors told him that on the day of devastating heat, on which temperatures reached 47C before the bush ignited, many of them had only minutes to leave their homes and escape. Sparks from the fire were carried several kilometres on the wind to ignite blazes in new areas at high speed.
The hills are still blackened with thousands of charred eucalyptus trees dotting the landscape, but there are also clear signs of regeneration, not only in the undergrowth but with leaves beginning to grow once more from the blackened stumps.
One family, Colin and Michelle French who ran an educational centre at Kinglake, showed the prince their washing line – the only part of their property not to be destroyed. It still has a polo shirt hanging from it, which is immovable because the heat melted the plastic of the line and welded it to the spot.
At another village, Whittlesea, the prince hugged some of those he met. They had been told to expect a special event but not told that he was coming.
One of those meeting the prince, Richard Fox, who lost his home in the fire, said: "It's a privilege. It does mean a lot to the people that have been affected. We are pleased by the continued interest from the royal family and Prince William today."
The prince also met residents of the village of Flowerdale, where a third of the homes were destroyed and 13 people died. The village has set up emergency temporary accommodation for the homeless on the side of the local cricket pitch and is working hard with philanthropic donations and aid from the state of Victoria to rebuild all the homes – the first family moved back into a rebuilt property within 17 days of the fire.
Also present in the village yesterday were four Australian sporting icons: test cricketers Matthew Hayden, Michael Hussey, Brett Lee and Brad Hodge, signing autographs, giving away bats and rucksacks to the children and taking part in a pick-up game with the youngsters on the ground's artificial pitch.
Inevitably, William was invited to take part and, protesting that he was no good, sent down a passably straight full-toss at Hayden who, in contrast to his normal hard-hitting manner in test cricket, batted it gently into the covers.
Then the prince was asked to bat and, using a plastic bat against the tennis ball bowled by a succession of youngsters, showed that, if nothing else, he learned to play a straight bat on the playing fields of Eton. They didn't get him out, so at least one Ashes encounter could count as a draw.
The outback villagers, enjoying a barbecue in shorts and T-shirts on a hot day, though one not nearly as hot as last year, pronounced the prince a good bloke for coming.
John Burgess, who chairs the village recovery committee, said: "We have seen more dignitaries in the past year than we would have expected to see in a lifetime. The prince's visit is a brief distraction to what is going on here, but it has given a lot of people some fun time."
The prince returns home from what has been a highly successful five days in New Zealand and Australia this evening and will resume his training to become an RAF air sea rescue helicopter pilot on Monday.

If you're serious about improving your credit score, follow these steps
A lot of us confronted times where we'd no option but to default on our obligations. At times it's out of our hands and we fail to exhaust all choices to not fall behind. This 1 error in your life may have hurt your credit rating and now you are frantically looking for ways to return to where you were. Figuring out how to boost your credit score is not as hard as you might think.
Forget about the past and Concentrate on the current. If you're searching for a way to better your score by 100+ points over another month, I can not assist you. But if you are really serious about improving your credit rating and getting back on course, then continue reading.
It is much easier said than done. If it had been that easy, everyone would have an outstanding credit rating.
I will not go too much into detail with this because that is all information Which Can Be found online, but here are the five Distinct variables of how your score is calculated:
Payment History: That is single-handedly the most essential element. It includes 35 percent of your credit rating calculation and is a very clear indication that lots of lenders use to learn whether you are likely to default on a prospective loan.
Amount Owed: Here is actually the 2nd most important aspect which goes into your credit rating and it includes 30 percent of your own score. Maintaining your general credit use under 30 percent is your rule of thumb.
Length of Charge: This variable simply comprises 15 percent of your own score. That is the reason you need to think twice about closing some reports which are "present" and have a lengthy credit history.
Additionally, this includes any current inquiries as well as also the speed of how quickly you open new accounts. These variables include 10 percent of your own score.
Kinds of Charge: Finally but not least, the several kinds of accounts you've recorded on your account are also a variable. If you are ready to manage many different kinds of charge, this is going to be a favorable aspect to lenders.
So What is the Key to Improving Your score?
Enhancing your credit rating takes some time. If you are trying to enhance your score so that you may find the best mortgage or automobile rate every month, then you may want to hold off on this large buy. The key to improving your credit rating is to be more financially accountable. Your credit rating is a three-digit amount that tells lenders how likely you're likely to default. Every positive actions you choose can paint a very different score every month.
If you are in a position to market good financial habits, then a fantastic credit rating will follow. Consider it carefully. Consider all those times that your equilibrium never appeared to decrease. When you cover your minimum payment (or even somewhat greater), did you discover that you're using your available credit again the next month? It is a vicious rather than ending cycle if you don't make extreme adjustments to prevent it.
There are two distinct sorts of situations we will look over.
You are likely to face an uphill struggle if your score is less than ideal. My definition of this is that the people whose credit rating is not high enough to even receive a simple credit card to begin rebuilding their credit scorecard. This is actually the toughest part. You wish to rebuild your charge but you do not even have the chance to show yourself that you're able to pay your bills in time.
This may use to individuals who only got out of insolvency or if you had overdue accounts enter groups. In any scenario, it is not impossible to escape this slump. So just what can you?
A secured credit card may ask that you pay a deposit upfront (typically beginning at $200) and that deposit will set your credit line. The most significant part this is to ensure that the lender is reporting your obligations to all 3 credit bureaus: Experian, Equifax, and Transunion.
I understand even saving $500 could be a battle to a but if you are in a position to try it, you have already won half the battle.
Now that you have your initial secured credit card, then this is the time to shine. Utilize this chance (along with your zero equilibrium) to always keep your complete balance under 30 percent of your limitation. In this instance, you always need to maintain your balance under $150. Another trick is to create a number of payments each month. Do not always wait till the final minute about the due date to repay your accounts. Creditors can realize your payment action so making several payments each month might be a great sign.
Repeat this procedure each and every month. This is a fantastic habit and you will have the ability to realize how timely payments and reduced credit use can influence your score.
Once you improve your score, then you might have the choice to request your lender to modify your account to a typical credit card to receive your deposit back. Alternately, the creditors may also boost your credit limit without asking for a further deposit.
Enhancing Your Score If You've Got High Debt
If you are in a scenario where you are credit rating is "average" but might be better, odds are that you are probably carrying an excessive amount of balance in your credit cards. Thirty-five percentage of your credit rating dependent on your overall wellbeing use. It follows that you are going to need to get your balance down to about 30 percent of your limitation so as to get the best shot at boosting your score.
Just how exactly do you do so? It is a good deal of work that is going to have a good deal of sacrifices. Itemize each and every cost and determine where your money is moving.
Issue each and every Cost: Take a peek at just how and where you are spending your cash. Ask yourself whether it was absolutely crucial to create this 1 buy. Think cell phone programs, online media programs, and insurance programs. Can there be room to remove these or search for less costly alternatives?
Once you carefully look over your expenditures, the next step is to produce a custom to save as much cash as you can. I know that it's much easier said than done, however that is the only means you are going to repay your debts. Period.
You will need to begin questioning each purchase you make. Ask yourself whether this really is really a need or a desire. Don't fall into the mindset that your available credit is "free money" that you are able to repay at a subsequent time. That can be a trap that a lot of men and women fall into.
You will absolutely must make sacrifices along the way however, the sensation of accomplishing this accomplishment will be amazing. The main reason why instilling these fiscal habits is really important is to be certain to do not fall back into debt in the first location.
One other fantastic habit would be to pay off your credit card several times a month. Slimming down your balance as you move will reduce the quantity of attention you pay. By making several payments each month, you are decreasing your ordinary equilibrium in addition to creating a concerted attempt to repay your debts.
Additional Suggestions to Increase Your Credit Health
Now That You Know the core character of improving your credit rating, here are additional methods that I highly recommend that you do:
The very last thing you need to do would be to overlook your obligations and pay off a late payment.
Religiously assess your credit card bills: Occasionally most of us procrastinate logging in to our accounts to observe the large debt which we open or have the credit card invoice that just came in the email. But, it is important to always keep at the top of just just how much you really owe. Confronting and admitting that your debt is the first measure to cover off them once and for all. It is tempting to eliminate that ten-year-old account which you seldom use, but using a very long credit history is crucial to keep a favorable credit rating.
Subscribe to free credit monitoring providers and track how your credit rating varies with time. Have a note of just how lower accounts and on-time obligations influence your score.
Request your lender to get a credit line increase (however make certain it is not a tricky credit pull). The secret to building a great credit score will be to implement sound fiscal choices. Should you worry more about your general financial health, a fantastic credit rating will follow.
Credit repairing companies might seem too good to be true. Do not get caught up on the "quick fix" to rely upon a credit repair program to repair your credit report.
Improving your credit rating includes keeping good financial habits. Concentrate on cutting back on your spending and paying down your debts. Finally but not least, when you're in a position to boost your score, be sure to keep up with great customs to keep your score.

How to Become Financially Independent?
When I first embarked on my journey to wealth, I was familiarized with the term financial freedom.
However, as I began to browse through some blogs, I have noticed that many have the goal of financial independence instead. Although these two terms may be likened to the same thing, I have never seen it that way.
To be completely independent from money does not necessarily mean that all your financial dreams would be possible just yet. For me, it was only just a first phase that I knew I had to achieve before I can truly be free from any financial restraints.
In this post, I would like to share my take on how to become financially independent.
Having the Right Financial Mindset
The first and probably the most important step for those interested in financial independence is having the right mindset.
Too many people think that financial independence is nothing more than just a dream and it is something that is unattainable. As a result, they don't do anything to improve their finances. Instead, they find themselves trapped in the rat race.
For me, having a realistic goal and a detail plan to achieving it makes my financial dreams seem more realistic.
Increasing Financial IQ
Learning from others is the best way to build financial IQ. Whether it is following the blog of those who share similar interests or reading financial books from those who are already financially independent, increasing literacy is vital in achieving financial goals.
It also goes without saying that having the knowledge and not putting it into practice is like not having the knowledge at all.
Start Investing
The next step in becoming financially independent would be to keep an eye out for potential cash flow opportunities and to make good investments.
I have learned that there are 3 types of investments:
- Portfolio: Stocks, bonds & ETFs
- Property: Real estate & Land
- Business: Start Up or Established
Although some of these investments may require a large amount of capital, I have nothing against leveraging loans and line of credits. As long as the opportunity generates positive cash flow, borrowing money for a good investment is always a viable option.
"Borrowing money isn't risky; it's what you do with the money that's risky." – Robert Kiyosaki
Building Passive Income
The goal for anyone trying to become financially independent should be to build a passive income stream big enough to pay for all their expenses (and maybe a little extra on the side.)
Since I am still living with my parents and my monthly expenses amount to $500, does that mean all I need is a passive income stream of $6000 a year to be considered financially independent?
Well of course, I can't be smooching off my parents forever. Once I move out on my own, my monthly expenses will be much larger.
At the same time, my financial goal is to achieve "freedom" instead of "independence". This will require a passive income stream generating much more than just enough to cover my expenses.
Paying Off Debt?
The general approach to debt is to pay it off as quickly as possible. However, there are good debt and bad debt. Good debts are usually low interest loans like mortgage, student loans or a line of credit that is in no rush to be paid off. On the other hand, bad debt should be taken care of immediately. This includes credit cards and high interest personal loans.
Personally, I don't believe that financial independence requires that all debt to paid off but I know some people who would disagree to that.
Be Committed to the Process
The journey to financial independence is not an easy one, especially when starting from scratch.
From my personal experience, I have had to go through many trial and errors in mapping out my path to get there. I am still in the process of trying to improve on my 7 year plan to one million dollars.
The important thing to remember is that it will take a lot of hard work and at times, progress may even become stagnant for a while. In spite of that, with a little determination and commitment in the equation, I have no doubt that those who truly want financial independence will achieve it.

That was the main conclusion of a survey conducted by market research firm Ifop for the French Federation of Women's Ready-to-Wear.

Cake and bear necessities will help pandas feel at home in Edinburgh
The zookeeper who will look after the first giant pandas to live in the UK for 17 years has revealed her somewhat surprising preparations for the new arrivals from China. Alison Maclean, head of carnivores at Edinburgh Zoo, says that she is honing her home baking skills.
She is learning how to produce the "panda cakes" loved by Tian Tian and Yang Guang to help them settle when they move from their current home in Ya'an. The animals are expected to arrive later this year in the culmination of the China-UK Giant Panda Project.
Last month, Mrs Maclean flew out to the Bifengxia Panda Base to meet the animals for the first time. They fall under her remit because, although their modern diet is largely…

Maplewood History: More on the 1970s Redevelopment That Didn't Happen and One That Did.
My co-author, Joyce Cheney, did a good job describing these events in our book, "The First 100 Years, Maplewood, MO." Writing from her own research, she had this to say. Attention K-Mart Shoppers
James O. Holton, president of Citizen's National Bank in Maplewood decided to take redevelopment into his own hands. Holton gathered fifty-seven local businessmen at The St. Louis Club and presented his vision for redevelopment: a six-block stretch of Manchester Avenue and surrounding streets, from Oakview Terrace to Big Bend would be rebuilt with retail venues in a park-like setting.

Using Photo-enforcement to Improve Pedestrian Safety
This webinar provides information on how cameras can help improve pedestrian safety by looking at interactions between cars and
pedestrians. Photo enforcement of red lights and speed limits is common (and sometimes, controversial). Learn what some communities are doing to monitor compliance at crosswalks and stop signs to improve safety. The session includes an overview of the technology; a summary of the research that makes the case for using cameras; and information about the District of Columbia's plans to expand its current photo enforcement program.
Continuing Education Credits: APBP will provide an attendance
certificate to those who
document their professional development hours; each 60-minute webinar
provides one hour of training (.1 CEU). APBP applies to the AICP for Certification Maintenance credit for each webinar.

Location:2013 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
Grassland is an extensive natural resource in Appalachia. Basing beef production on pasture, from conception to slaughter, will add value to small farm production in the Appalachian area. Three cooperating institutions (West Virginia University, Virginia Tech, and Clemson University) and the ARS Appalachian Farming Systems Research Center are together providing production information by cooperatively studying soil, plant, animal and economics. Each institution is responsible for research on particular phases of the production stream. The objective of this agreement is to provide information on winter stocker and heifer development pasture-based production systems. The Agreement has three specific goals: 1) Produce a 12-month supply of pasture-based beef by expanding the harvest window with retention of acceptable meat quality, 2) Develop criteria for pasture raised beef that define "the window of acceptability", and 3) Develop tools for pasture-based beef producers to assess and manage risk. Fieldwork to be conducted at Virginia Tech will emphasize on production systems from cow-calf through backgrounding, risk reduction of pasture-based systems and economic evaluation of consumer preferences. Objective 1. Produce a 12-month supply of pasture-based beef by expanding the harvest window with retention of acceptable meat quality. Subobjective 1.1. Evaluate the use of variation in frame scores of sire and dams and different creep grazing systems to expand the harvest window of grass-fed beef. Subobjective 1.2.3. Alternative forage species and nitrogen sources. Objective 2. Develop criteria for pasture raised beef that define "the window of acceptability". Subobjective 2.1. Quantify performance efficiency of cattle in pasture-based forage systems. Subobjective 2.1.1. Estimate residual feed intake (RFI) of forage-fed cattle. Subobjective 2.1.2. Quantify actual intake of grazing cattle during finishing. Subobjective 2.1.5. Identify life cycle risk factors relevant to meat quality. Subobjective 2.2. Define "window of acceptability" by relating animal production systems, meat quality and consumer parameters. Objective 3. Identify management and nutritional strategies for minimizing weaning stress in calves. Subobjective 3.1. Evaluate ability of high quality forage to minimize post weaning weight gain. Subobjective 3.2. Evaluate the effect of alternative weaning techniques on cattle behavior and stress markers. Subobjective 3.3. Characterize relationship between cattle behavior and carcass quality. Objective 4. Develop tools for pasture-based beef producers to assess and manage risk. Subobjective 4.1. Establish the impact of continuous-use pasture on disease incidence and weight gain of young stock.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
Systems for the different segments of beef production will be evaluated. The Virginia Tech team will include scientists, graduate students and technicians from the Departments of Agricultural and Applied Economics, Animal and Poultry Sciences and Crop and Soil Environmental Sciences in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the Departments of Biomedical Sciences and Pathobiology and Large Animal Clinical Sciences in the College of Veterinary Medicine. Experiments will be conducted in the field on cow-calf production systems, weaning systems, and backgrounding systems. Risk reduction in pasture-based livestock production will be evaluated relative to forage species and nitrogen sources. Potential production losses from internal parasites on continuous-use pastures will be estimated from data under controlled conditions. Economic data from ethnic demand for pasture-finished products will be evaluated. Weaned calves will be provided to the other cooperators for completion of their phases of the project.
3. Progress Report:
In FY 13, data collection was completed for all phases of the project. Development of the project database was completed. Additional forage and animal performance data were entered in the database, with particular focus on developing a robust inventory system for tracking animal movements throughout their lifetime. A data export function was designed and implemented to allow relationships between grazing intervals and forage quality and quantity in a rotational grazing system to be investigated. The success of pasture-based beef systems depends on combining animals, forages and management in a way that enhances productivity and sustainability. Research investigating these systems therefore must capture and integrate the multidisciplinary data needed to describe them. This is achieved most effectively through the design and implementation of a relational database, which facilitates the entry, validation and manipulation of large and complicated data. A database built on Microsoft SQL Server software was completed. The available remaining forage, hay and animal data were integrated into the database. A web-based user interface was completed to streamline entry and validation of forage analyses. An animal inventory that allows mapping lifetime performance also was finalized. The completion of the database allowed the multidisciplinary data collected during the project to be reliably and efficiently extracted for analysis.

Is Protocol buffers worth it?
Google's Protocol Buffers is a "language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data – think XML, but smaller, faster, and simpler"
XML is slow and large. There's no doubting that. JSON's my default alternative, though it's a bit large. CSV's ideal for tabular data, but ragged hierarchies are a bit difficult.
I was trying to see if Protocol Buffers would be smaller and faster, at least when using Python. I took JSON as the base, and checked the write speed, read speed and file sizes. Here's the comparison:
Protocol Buffers are 17 times slower to write and almost 6 times slower to read than JSON files. File sizes are smaller, but then, all it takes is a simple gzip operation to compress the JSON files even smaller. Reading json.gz files is just 2% slower than JSON files, and writing them is only 4 times slower.
The code base is at https://bitbucket.org/sanand0/protobuftest
On the whole, it appears that GZipped JSON files are smaller, faster, and just as simple as Protocol Buffers. What am I missing?
Update: When you add GZipped CSV to the mix, it's twice as fast as GZipped JSON to read: clearly a huge win. It's only slightly slower to write, and but compresses a tiny bit more than JSON.

Re: Islam
Re: «...In these same lectures RS said something to the effect that the origin of Mohammedanism was inspired by spirits that were opposed but still somehow connected to the Christ influence. I still haven't figured out exactly which spirits he was talking about....»
I know that the mix is obscure and complex, but I'd like to place a couple of concepts foreward on the subject.
Could be, not altogether, but perhaps a good part, Spiritual Beings overlooking folk souls. Ex. there's no close (in terms of time), direct link between 'Arabism/Mohammedism' and the folk thread which brought Christianity forth as a supersensible/sensible realitiy.
It could then be Spiritual Beings overlooking folk souls - however, these Spritual Beings having distinct affiliage with other Spirit Beings ex. in a capacity of servitude, concession. Thus, one would speak of Spiritual Beings of the 2nd Hierarchies in interplay with others - and perhaps the great difference arises in the particularities of the relationships/configuration with some of these ' others'.
In the immediacy, I certainly can see a clear distinction, on the folk soul front, in terms of cultural impulses and yet, this particular folk soul (if that is indeed what one finds creating a divide) cannot not despise Christianity altogether, for Christianity refers itself to the equation of 6/7 of the Elohim and these Spirit Beings would, by nature, ultimately refer back to this equation as well.
Ex. In practical, every day life, a Muslim will normally identify- with the greates of ease - with Christian ideals.
Thus, a paradox arises on the subtlest of levels - in Mohammedism, we have a forcing forward of an outwardly oriented vision, all the while furnishing a distinct yet very remote assistance ( almost devachanic) to Christianity - a kind of assistance which Judaism ( 's distinct configuration) cannot reach, nor furnish. (This one, just as Christianity has shown throughout the centuries, must contend with a downside dimension to it's nature - an inherent weekness ) ...
That's all I can come up with for now, carol.

Superb RX100 images are flooding the Web
Aug 30, 2012
Like from no camera model I've seen before.
I retired my full frame DSLR and L lenses over two years ago in favor of small cameras. I must say, with the RX100, my decision is now solidified. We now have a feature rich, capable camera with impeccable IQ that's small enough to take everywhere. "Take everywhere" is key. Vacations, family outings, dinner with friends, concerts, sporting events, art galleries, or any time the light is right...we now have our camera with us when creativity strikes, with the added benefit of not being burdened with big cameras, bags, lenses and other gear that gets in the way of good times and detracts from being at one in our environment.

The University of Bohol (UB) - recognizing scholarship, character, service, and leadership - is keen on their support to the youth and their holistic development.
The UB family gives its moral and financial support to its graduate student, Ms. Ivy Olavides Pacaldo, who was recently chosen by the National Youth Commission (NYC) as a Youth Ambassador of the Philippines to the ASEAN countries and Japan through the 35th Ship for Southeast Asian Youth Program (SSEAYP), an annual youth exchange program sponsored by the Japanese Government.
The SSEAYP gathers more than 300 youth leaders from the Southeast Asian Region and Japan to foster understanding, friendship, and cooperation among the youth and the countries they represent amidst differences of cultural, sociological, and religious backgrounds. Aboard on a cruise ship, "Nippon Maru," the youth ambassadors will visit Japan, Brunei Darussalam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand.
While building her career as a teacher in one of the schools in Tagbilaran, Ms. Pacaldo is taking up her master's degree in English at UB where she finished her bachelor's degree in Secondary Education; and graduated with a leadership award from the NYC after having served as a student leader.
At present, Ms. Pacaldo, who hails from Jagna, Bohol, is an active member of the Junior Chamber International - Bohol Chocolate Hills, an organization that promotes leadership and entrepreneurship skills. She also serves the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) as a youth volunteer.
It can be recalled that UB also supported its faculty member, Dr. Janice B. Tirol, who joined the SSEAYP in 2007.

If, as it seems, the enemies of a settlement with Iran will fail to prevent it, then the next question is, "Might they be able later on to force its failure?" The answer, clearly, is "Yes." Any number of political factions on both sides will be tempted, so it will be essential that Washington prepare itself.
Surely, no American would consider anything so immoral and unpatriotic as a false-flag operation to subvert U.S. diplomacy by making either side appear guilty of betraying the accord, but there will be plenty of groups in the Mideast—Sunni jihadis, IRGC extremists (who may be just as hostile to the nuclear accord as the GOP), Zionist extremists, and perhaps some we cannot even imagine)—that would be delighted to create a new U.S.-Iranian dispute as a smokescreen for this election or that expansionist move.
The nuclear accord is really little more than an agreement by those desiring a calm and prosperous Mideast to try to overcome the mountain of mutual distrust, based on repeated misbehavior. If this is a 10-year agreement, its success will require 10 years of constant mutual care to bring its hope to fruition.
Some people still alive will recall the terror of the Cuban missile crisis, that unnecessary crisis an idiotic display of irresponsibility but one that led to the shocking idea of a hot line telephone connection between the White House and the Kremlin, just in case Leader A wished to ask Leader B, "Ah, you don't really want to blow up the world just now, do you?"
The U.S. and Iran need a regular weekly diplomatic lunch, perhaps in a quiet little restaurant in Switzerland, so each side can vent frustrations and find out what actions need to be taken to avoid either side perceiving the other as having ill intent. If there is ill intent, then we are in trouble. But if it so happens that the feuding factions on each side conclude that they really do want this deal to work, then it would be a shame for it all to blow up in our faces (pun intended) simply because someone mistakenly distrusted someone else.
The last decade was hard; the next one will be even harder. It is, nonetheless, worth the effort.

If immediately after turning off your television you didn't feel like you were being quick-talked into buying a borderline "quasi-legal," investment package that sounds too good to be true because it relies upon unspoken yet overly optimistic and highly theoretical "growth" projections, then perhaps Marco Rubio's assertion that we need "less" philosophers is telling. If that is indeed the case, I also have some stock in Accu.so I'd like to sell. And as much as I'd rather sit in a closed room with Donald Trump for an undetermined amount of time, listening to him list different synonyms for the word "worst" as they can be used to describe what and how specific people, events, and contracts, have been the worst things in "history," I have to give Fox moderator, Maria Bartiromo, credit for pressing Ted Cruz about his tax plan.

Joking with Clenched Teeth: The Politics of Modern Alienation in Fyodor Dostoyevsky's Notes from Underground
Fyodor Dostoyevsky's literary style separates yet unifies fiction and non-fiction literary genres in order to critique modern political discourse. It does this from the point of view of modern alienation in the voice of the Underground Man. By situating the novella in the space of pure imagination, Dostoyevsky encourages students of politics and literature to contemplate the origins of both modern political philosophy and it's alienated other in terms of abstraction and imagination.
The Insane Case of Hissène Habré and the Fraudulence in "Fiscal-Conservative" Moralizing
In January 2014, no doubt anticipating the upcoming presidential primaries, Senator and now presidential candidate Rand Paul published a statement on his website which boasted his co-sponsorship of the then recently introduced "No Taxpayer Funding For Abortion Act." Paul and other advocates of the bill have and continue to explicitly single out institutions, specifically Planned Parenthood, that both provide abortion services and accept government subsidies for patients in need of financial assistance. And the bill would do exactly what the title would have you believe, restrict government subsidies for health care which includes abortion services.
Don't Let Trump's Moralizing Fool You
The recent Planned Parenthood "controversy" has offered GOP presidential candidates an opportunity for more of their incessant and borderline fraudulent moralizing. Presidential candidate Donald Trump described Planned Parenthood's activities around abortion services and selling fetal tissue for research purposes as "disgraceful" and suggested that Republicans shutdown the government over PP funding.
A Liar or a Bungler Walk into GOP Headquarters, Who Should Resign First?
Remember that kid you or someone close to you hung out with in and possibly shortly after high school that always had nice things–cars, bikes, clothes, etc? The kid probably always insisted that he/she paid for these things with their own, earned money yet barely if ever worked some shitty job. Furthermore, it was an obvious, open-secret among you and all your friends that their relatively well-off, above-middle-class parents were bankrolling their expensive tastes?
Apparently those kids grow up to run for public office. As it turns out, bankrolling your kids' expensive habits, although frowned upon by anyone with a functioning work-ethic, is actually legal until little Frankie develops a taste for public power and needs money for campaigning. As it turns out, hitting up mom and dad for a brand new Dodge Charger complete with a special edition sport-package is one thing; doing so for money during a campaign for public office is illegal.
Constructivist Theory of American Federalism: Propositional Weaknesses in the Idea of Self-Governance, Then and Now
American federalism faces as many (if not more) challenges today as it did during the time of the founding. Certain critical topics, such as national security, are easily identifiable through study of the discursive practices surrounding American federalism. Others, while not directly (some might say explicitly) addressed during the Constitutional debates, still require detailed attention filtered though a lens sensitive to American federalism concerns—such as environmental protection and disaster relief. There are no easy solutions to any of these issues; thus, reliance on any a priori ideological formulas for action will certainly exacerbate the problems and frustrate both the American public and its government agencies, at all levels. This natural outgrowth of partisan-political discourse places party interest above that of the public and surely endangers the welfare of American citizens, jeopardizing the fruits of their labor, fueling mistrust in American political institutions, and compromising the integrity of the American republic anytime an unforeseen circumstance materializes.

Scientific Jouissance and What Lies Beneath the "Pleasure Principle"
"An ego thus educated has become 'reasonable'; it no longer lets itself be governed by the pleasure principle, but obeys the reality principle, which also, at bottom, seeks to obtain pleasure, but pleasure which is assured through taking account of reality, even though it is pleasure postponed and diminished"
The cover of the March issue of National Geographic Magazine suggests that there is a "War on Science." The title of the feature article asks "Why Do Many Reasonable Doubt Science?" I think the question should ask "why do so many unreasonable people doubt science." Or what makes them believe they are even capable of the task. When reasonable people "doubt science" we don't ask why(?). We call it the peer-review process, the healthy habit of scientific skepticism whereby scientists' findings are meticulously put through the tests of rigor, of falsifiability and verification through reproducible results.
Indeed, in the article it is suggested that scientists even find a kind of professional pleasure in skepticism, in pointing out to their colleagues where their studies may have faltered. On the topic of "pleasure" Freud was one of the most famous to theorize that people (yes, even scientists) instinctually seek biological (material) and psychological (social.professional) pleasure and avoid pain therein. Thus it's not unreasonable, in a Freudian sense, for scientists to find pleasure in their professional, critical role; some might argue that its even a crucial part of the "success" of science.
True Believers
In 2001, the Bouncing Souls, a punk band from New Jersey you may or may not have heard of, put out their 5th studio album How I Spent My Summer Vacation. One of the hit tracks on the album in is number called "True Believers." The song is a romance ballad about enduring comradery, built around shared belief, as we inevitably age and old friendships fade. The chorus, belted out over that familiar punk-rock chord triad,
We live our life in our own way,
Never really listened to what they say,
The kind of faith that doesn't fade away
We are the true believers
We are the true believers
True believers
couldn't fail to convince anyone of the benefits of being a True Believer. Continue reading
As Benjamin Netanyahu prepares to address Congress, we can expect him to succeed in convincing the U.S., again, that Iran is one to two years away from getting a nuclear weapon. At the risk of sounding cynical, as long as Iran is always one to two years away from getting a nuclear weapon, Netanyahu gets his $3 billion dollar check in U.S. aid, no questions asked. Netanyahu's visit is conveniently timed to align with another round of U.S. and Iranian nuclear talks, which, according to analysts, are either likely to fail outright, or might as well fail.
Today the American Conservative posted an article describing the essence of the nuclear talks between the U.S. and Iran. It goes something like this: if negotiations with Iran fail, then we are left with two options. A) The world will have to get used to the idea of a nuclear armed Iran. B) Western forces (which would probably consist of only U.S. and Israel) will have to pursue a policy of regime change in Iran. Therein lies the self-fulfilling prophecy inherent in foreign policy realism. Iran's only sure-fire bet against regime change, from outside and inside forces, is a nuclear arsenal. Iran, the U.S., and Israel all know that. Continue reading

Texas has the worst drivers, study says
Tis the season of travel and you might want to be a little cautious, because Texas drivers are the worst. That's according to numbers from Car Insurance Comparison and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
"I'm definitely not surprised," said Steven, an Austin driver.
The states were ranked based on five categories like fatalities per 100 million miles traveled, drunk driving, and speeding. Texas ranked the worst in all categories.
"These streets are getting crazy. I just hope everyone is out there driving safely," said Steven.
Texas tied with Louisiana for the number one spot. The lone star state was third worst for the drunk driving category alone. Austin drivers say they can see why the state has such a low rank.
"I would say it's hectic at times," said Sohail Shad, driver.
It only adds fuel to the fire, that it can take a while to get around right here in the capital city.
"I live about 9 miles away from campus. It could take up to one hour during rush hour," said Shad.
Last year, to combat drivers blocking intersections, the city started its "don't block the box campaign," looking for careless drivers. Also, the Austin Police Department continues to run it's no refusal campaign on busy holiday weekends, to catch drunk drivers.
The Texas Department of Transportation recognizes this problem, that's why they started their end the 15-year streak of fatalities campaign this time in 2015.
"The tragedy here is a lot of these deaths that have been happening over 15 years are entirely preventable," said Becky Ozuna with TXDOT last year.
Texas is number one, but not on the correct list. It's going to take some more cautious drivers and sober ones, to get off the top of this list.

29 May 2013 we light up candles, candles for the birthday boy.
I thank his family for giving me the chance to celebrate his day,
even though through Skype. I wanted to blog about our necklaces
& I custom made brand new one but it didn't arrive on time. (urgh)
Within a blink, June is already here knocking on our doors.
Since I did not leave the house for about eight days, it got me
thinking that 5 months has passed us by & what have we done
so far?. Oh god, this got me devastated. It hit me in the chest
as if someone punch my chest, going back to memory lane was a
bad idea & now I question my future. Back in 2011, I would
never imagine all this would happen. I learn to appreciate more,
I learn to be more honest & I want to change my blogging concept.
More traveling, more adventure, more detail & the list goes on.
For now, I just need to heal & get myself together.
June Inspiration.
