Spain's crisis budget aims at spending cuts not tax rises
MADRID (Reuters) - Spain announced a crisis budget for 2013 based mostly on spending cuts on Thursday in what many see as an effort to pre-empt the likely conditions of an international bailout.
Ministry budgets were slashed by 8.9 percent for next year and public sector wages frozen for a third year as Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy battles to trim one of the euro zone's biggest deficits.
"This is a crisis budget aimed at emerging from the crisis ... In this budget there is a larger adjustment of spending than revenue," Deputy Prime Minister Soraya Saenz de Santamaria told a news conference after a marathon six-hour cabinet meeting.
Beset by anti-austerity protests and threats of secession by the wealthy northwestern region of Catalonia, Rajoy is resisting market and diplomatic pressure to apply for a rescue, partly out of concern for national sovereignty but also because European Union paymaster Germany insists Spain doesn't need help.
The central government sees budget savings of 13 billion euros in 2013, with spending down 7.3 percent -- not including social security and interest payments -- and income rising 4 percent thanks to a 15 percent leap in value-added tax take.
The budget goes to parliament on Saturday and debates could last weeks. The country's 17 autonomous regions still must present budgets and find an additional 5 billion euros in adjustments to meet overall public deficit reduction goals.
Spain, the euro zone's fourth largest economy, is now at the center of the euro debt crisis. Investors fear Madrid cannot control its finances and question whether Rajoy has the political will to take all the necessary but unpopular measures.
Madrid is talking to EU authorities about the terms of a possible aid package that would trigger an European Central Bank bond-buying program and ease Spain's unsustainable funding costs.
Brussels has demanded an independent budget oversight body, which Economy Minister Luis de Guindos said on Thursday would be created to review budget execution. The government is still analyzing potential conditions for aid, he said.
The conservative government said tax revenue would be higher than originally budgeted in 2012 -- partly due to a hike in VAT -- allowing it to comfortably cut the public deficit to 6.3 percent from close to 9 percent last year.
Uncertainty over Spain's ability to control spending in regional governments -- which account for half of all public spending and could threaten the deficit goal -- has increased due to the Catalan demands for independence.
The autonomous region's parliament voted on Thursday to hold a referendum on independence, but Saenz de Santamaria said the region must consult the rest of the country first.
Pensions, earmarked by the European Commission as a key area for reform, will rise by 1 percent next year but Treasury Minister Cristobal Montoro would not be drawn on whether the government would pay an inflation catch-up which could be over 3 percent this year.
In a sign of how tight the budget is this year the government said it would use 3 billion euros from social security reserves to pay pensions in 2012.
Before the end of the year the government will announce a pension reform to restrict early retirement and to review sustainability of the pension system which could open the door to accelerating an increase in retirement age.
The deputy premier said the government would set out 43 new laws to reform the economy over the next six months and including reforms to the labor market, public administrations, energy services and telecommunications sectors.
The detailed timetable for economic reforms goes beyond what the European Commission has required and is an ambitious step forward, the EU's top economic official said on Thursday in response to the government announcements.
"The reforms are clearly targeted at some of the most pressing policy challenges," EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn said in a statement.
Market reaction was cautious.
"The first impressions (of the announcements) are good, heading towards a major adjustment in spending rather than in revenues," said Jose Luis Martinez of Citigroup in Madrid.
"However, we see as too optimistic the macroeconomic assumption of 0.5 percent recession for the next year. We see a scenario with a deeper recession and if this were the case, further spending cuts will be needed."
De Guindos' statement that the 2012 budget deficit target would be met this year due to a solid increase in revenues will also be viewed with suspicion with many economists expecting the government to miss the objective.
Spending cuts continue to heap pressure on Spaniards and are likely to fuel further street protests, which have become increasingly violent as tensions rise and police use force to disperse crowds.
A quarter of all Spanish workers are unemployed and tens of thousands have been evicted from their homes since a housing bubble burst in 2008 and plummeting consumer and business sentiment tipped the country into a four-year economic slump.
The prime minister's image, both at home and abroad, has deteriorated rapidly since his party won an absolute parliamentary majority last November.
Newspaper pictures of Rajoy enjoying a cigar on Sixth Avenue in New York on Wednesday while protesters gathered in Madrid fuelled criticism of his detached attitude toward Spain's mounting problems.

With a 15% increase in the VAT and an over 7% decrease in central Government spending, demand will certainly decrease and an estimate of a 0.5% recession certainly looks optimistic. But I don't see how reduced expenditures by the Government will do anything but increase the recession. Debt is a problem but reducing Government spending to reduce the debt just increases the recession and reduces the Government's ability to pay down the debt. Is it only me and Paul Krugman who can see this?
Why don't politicians look at ways to increase GDP while limiting debt growth? If you grow GDP faster than the debt, you take care of job growth and debt capacity at the same time.
One difficulty is that simple, generalized macro economic policies tend to be somewhat ineffective. Efforts have to be focused on investments with the highest economic and job multiples. Interestingly I just learned that supporting the arts is one way (http://www.reuters.com/video/2012/09/27/reuters-tv-the-exchange-the-bair-truth?videoId=237508926&videoChannel=117785&refresh=true). Education funding for science and technology programs and health practitioner training also has a high ROI.
If reduction in Government spending is needed, look no further than military spending and subsidizing the oil industry, agriculture, mining, timber, and broadcasting. These all have a negative ROI, fill the pockets of the already rich, and produce few jobs per dollar spent.
Why don't conservative governments look at finances this way? If Romney looked at Government spending this way I might be more inclined to vote for the "businessman". What's Spain's excuse?
As for revenue generation a VAT will increase costs, drive consumption down, hurt job growth and is regressive. Any tax that hurts the poor, drives down demand and job growth is as likely to help the recession as debt reduction.
Given the statements by this Government, it seems that their intent is to have to reduce the size of the Government just like the US's GOP. They'll have to work quickly though. They'll only have one term to get it done.
Austerity is a solution that only serves businesses and the rich, because you're refusing to make them pay their fair share for the society and government they are equally responsible for. I hope those anti-austerity protesters turn into revolutionary forces that push out that irresponsible government and replace them with one that will tax and spend like they should.

Fractures are breaks in the bone that are often caused by a blow or a fall. A fracture may be classified as a simple fracture (a thin fracture that may not run through the entire bone), or a compound fracture, in which the broken bone protrudes through the skin. Symptoms may include tenderness over the bone, swelling of the affected area, deformity of the limb, and increased pain with movement.
Stress fractures are weak spots or small cracks in the bone caused by continuous overuse. Stress fractures often occur in the foot after training for basketball, running, and other sports. The bones in the midfoot (metatarsals) in runners are especially vulnerable to stress fractures.
A stress fracture may not cause swelling. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Pain in the front of the foot, often after long or intense bouts of exercise
Pain that disappears after exercise, then returns when exercise is continued
The symptoms of stress fractures may resemble other conditions and medical problems. Always consult your doctor for a diagnosis.
Diagnosis of a stress fracture usually is confirmed with a complete medical history and a physical examination. X-rays often cannot detect stress fractures because they are so fine, so a CT scan or an MRI may be performed. Once calluses form around the fracture, an X-ray can confirm a stress fracture. Sometimes, a bone scan is performed to detect a stress fracture.
Specific treatment for a stress fracture will be determined by your doctor based on:
Your age, overall health, and medical history
Extent of the injury
Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, and therapies
Expectation for the course of the injury
Your opinion or preference
Treatment may include:
Cold packs
Medication, such as ibuprofen
Shock-absorbing shoes to use during exercise
Running on soft surfaces, such as grass
Physical therapy
Switching to a less stressful activity, such as swimming or biking
Wearing a brace or cast

To be white, or straight, or male, or middle class is to be simultaneously ubiquitious and invisible. You're everywhere you look, you're the standard against which everyone else is measured. You're like water, like air. People will tell you they went to see a "woman doctor" or they will say they went to see "the doctor." People will tell you they have a "gay colleague" or they'll tell you about a colleague. A white person will be happy to tell you about a "Black friend," but when that same person simply mentions a "friend," everyone will assume the person is white. Any college course that doesn't have the word "woman" or "gay" or "minority" in its title is a course about men, heterosexuals, and white people. But we call those courses "literature," "history" or "political science."

Excerpt of dream hampton's message to Frank Ocean (via sexualsportswear)
Oh my god I have fucking shivers

Do you not believe hate breeds more hate?
I believe "hate breeds more hate" is a phrase that
- is used to blame the victims of hateful actions for those actions
- deliberately ignores the source of the hate
- excuses the oppressor
- attempts to control how the oppressed react to their oppressors
If Person A says something cissexist to Person B & Person B responds aggressively, Person B is not "breeding more hate." Person A is obviously already hateful. Person B has every single fucking right to be angry.
We have every single fucking right to be angry.
If the people who said this really believed that "hate breeds hate", they would understand Person B's reaction and be addressing their advice towards Person A.
To survive, subjugated people must understand people with power, but the reverse is not true. When members of devalued groups have a critical awareness of their positions, they earn a standpoint that may allow them to see the world with less bias.
Standpoint theory claims that marginalized groups can generate unique insights into how a society works. Women, minorities, gays and lesbians, people of lower socioeconomic class, intersexuals, transsexuals, and others who are outside the cultural center may see the society from perspectives that are less distorted, less biased, and more layered than those who occupy more central social locations. Marginalized perspectives can inform all of us about how our society operates. Maria Lugones and Elizabeth Spelman (1983) point out that dominant groups have the luxury of not having to understand the perspective of less privileged groups.
They don't need to learn about others in order to survive."

Julia T. Wood (via lola-forizzle)
Another reason why I've never truly envied my oppressors. Who'd wanna condemn themselves to an entire life of such ignorance and ineptitude?
If you're a boy writer, it's a simple rule: you've gotta get used to the fact that you suck at writing women and that the worst women writer can write a better man than the best male writer can write a good woman. And it's just the minimum. Because the thing about the sort of heteronormative masculine privilege, whether it's in Santo Dommingo, or the United States, is you grow up your entire life being told that women aren't human beings, and that women have no independent subjectivity. And because you grow up with this, it's this huge surprise when you go to college and realize that, "Oh, women aren't people who does my shit and fucks me."
And I think that this a huge challenge for boys, because they want to pretend they can write girls. Every time I'm teaching boys to write, I read their women to them, and I'm like, "Yo, you think this is good writing?" These motherfuckers attack each other over cliche lines but they won't attack each other over these toxic representations of women that they have inherited… their sexist shorthand, they think that is observation. They think that their sexist distortions are insight. And if you're in a writing program and you say to a guy that their characters are sexist, this guy, it's like you said they fucking love Hitler. They will fight tooth and nail because they want to preserve this really vicious sexism in the art because that is what they have been taught.
And I think the first step is to admit that you, because of your privilege, have a very distorted sense of women's subjectivity. And without an enormous amount of assistance, you're not even going to get a D. I think with male writers the most that you can hope for is a D with an occasional C thrown in. Where the average women writer, when she writes men, she gets a B right off the bat, because they spent their whole life being taught that men have a subjectivity. In fact, part of the whole feminism revolution was saying, "Me too, motherfuckers." So women come with it built in because of the society.
It's the same way when people write about race. If you didn't grow up being a subaltern person in the United States, you might need help writing about race. Motherfuckers are like 'I got a black boy friend,' and their shit sounds like Klan Fiction 101.
The most toxic formulas in our cultures are not pass down in political practice, they're pass down in mundane narratives. It's our fiction where the toxic virus of sexism, racism, homophobia, where it passes from one generation to the next, and the average artist will kill you before they remove those poisons. And if you want to be a good artist, it means writing, really, about the world. And when you write cliches, whether they are sexist, racist, homophobic, classist, that is a fucking cliche. And motherfuckers will kill you for their cliches about x, but they want their cliches about their race, class, queerness. They want it in there because they feel lost without it. So for me, this has always been the great challenge.
As a writer, if you're really trying to write something new, you must figure out, with the help of a community, how can you shed these fucking received formulas. They are received. You didn't come up with them. And why we need fellow artists is because they help us stay on track. They tell you, "You know what? You're a bit of a fucking homophobe." You can't write about the world with these simplistic distortions. They are cliches. People know art, always, because they are uncomfortable. Art discomforts. The trangressiveness of art has to deal with confronting people with the real. And sexism is a way to avoid the real, avoiding the reality of women. Homophobia is to avoid the real, the reality of queerness. All these things are the way we hide from encountering the real. But art, art is just about that."

Creature Feature – Lions
by AJHQ, under Animal Facts, National Geographic, Videos
The biggest lion on record weighed in at 826 pounds! That's almost half of a ton! Imagine 7 moms all rolled into one giant cat, and you've got an idea or how big this lion was.
Lions can run up to fifty miles per hour, and their roar can be heard from 5 miles away!!
They also sleep twenty hours a day. We guess that's a perk of being King of the Jungle. Even though they don't live in jungles. They live in the plains of Africa in areas called savannas.
Tigers are actually the largest of the feline (cat) family, and they live in the jungles of Asia. Maybe the tiger should be the King of the Jungle?
Watch this video from Dr. Brady Bar with more info about lions!
AJHQ&A – Frogs
by AJHQ, under Animal Facts, National Geographic, Random Stuff, Videos
Jammer Fabulous Fancyrose asks and Dr. Brady Barr explains "Why is it important for a frog to have a sticky tongue?"
Did you know the wood frog can live north of the Arctic Circle? It can survive for weeks with more than half of its body FROZEN. This frog uses glucose in its blood as a kind of antifreeze that protects its organs, while the rest of the body freezes solid.
Do you have a frog pet in Jamaa?
Creature Feature – Mantids
by AJHQ, under National Geographic, Random Stuff, Videos
The Mantid family is often referred to as the Mantis family, which is incorrect. Mantises, praying or otherwise, are actually a small family within the overall Mantid realm that has over 2,400 branches.
Mantids live all over the world and are a friend to the farmer. They eat other bugs that want to eat up the crops before they can be harvested. A formidable foe, the Mantids are masters of camouflage and can grow to a length of ten-inches. Watch the video from Dr. Brady Barr for more info!
Have you found the Praying Mantis that lives in Jamaa?

New Style Profile
We recently rolled out a new design for member profiles. The goal was to further focus on the work itself: Ditching the sidebar to show a full grid of thumbnails and separating the designer's info from Dribbble's application controls, while providing a better experience on small screens.
One important change to mention is an update to the content allowed in the bio (which is now featured more prominently). HTML in bios is no longer supported, but URLs are automatically linked and prettified (e.g.
http://www.lingscars.com →
lingscars.com). Additionally, @mentions to other Dribbble profiles are automatically linked (handy for linking to a team account, for example). We encourage you to review your bio with the new design and make edits if needed.
We hope the new layout offers a clearer picture of our members and their work, and we're excited about the groundwork this lays for efforts to come. More on that later!

A type of palm tree native to Belize, called the 'give and take' palm (Cryosophila stauracantha), is a kind of joke from nature. The razor sharp spines on the tree will inject a deadly poison into the body of anyone who dares touch it. As well, it will leave a rather nasty cut on anyone who touches it. However, there's a remedy for the cut. What is it? The very sap of the tree! It contains a chemical that will nullify the poison, help heal the cut, and disinfect the wound.

lovely rich flavour
These beans make perfect espresso having a deep almost chocolate flavour. The strong roast means they perform equally as well in latte and cappuccino. Perfect for any bean to cup machine

Some people prefer the voice mail box that their phone company provides them at a charge over an easier to use telephone answering machine. Which is better?

If by dungeons you are referring to Heroics - then yes - it's ridiculously depressing. However, if you are referring to raids - I don't see your point.
With each tier, your character becomes more and more powerful, and if played correctly becomes the most powerful healer out of all of the classes. We fulfill the niche that Blizz created when they made bosses that hit like loaded cement trucks hitting small children crossing the street to get some candy/ icecream.
I will state that gearing up is incredibly boring since the only competition for gear that we have is over weapons, shields, trinkets, necks, and rings. 7/16 slots. Other classes are competing for 14/15 slots...

IdahoPTV Home > Idaho Reports > Idaho Opinions > "Show us what reformed Medicaid looks like, governo"
Show us what reformed Medicaid looks like, governor
Press-Tribune Editorial board
March 28, 2013
Idaho Press-Tribune
Advocates for the poor are putting on a full-court press for Idaho lawmakers, urging them to expand Medicaid coverage so that more of the state's low-income population get receive medical coverage. Given the chaos in the Legislature right now, that isn't likely to happen.
It's nearly April and tempers are frail, as evidenced by the spat between the House and Senate on three pieces of gun rights legislation and the education budget. So great is the animosity between both houses that all three gun measures have been shot down, and it's possible the session could be extended beyond Friday's planned adjournment to redesign the public schools budget.
This deep into legislative sessions, such rows aren't uncommon. So given that reality, it's probably just as well legislators don't rush through the testy subject of Medicaid expansion.
In a nutshell, here's the dilemma: Thousands of Idahoans without health coverage could get it if the state agrees to the expansion, paid for with federal funds. The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, as one would expect, is urging expansion, saying it could mean nearly half a billion dollars in property tax relief for Idahoans.
But remember, Medicaid expansion is part of "Obamacare," fiercely opposed by conservative lawmakers. Gov. Butch Otter remains opposed to Medicaid expansion unless a "broken" system is reformed, and that would include more emphasis on patient responsibility.
Otter exhausted a lot of political capital this year with a strong push to convince skeptical Republicans to approve a state-based insurance exchange - another component of the Affordable Care Act. That effort alone shows the governor isn't an unbending ideologue, so his concerns deserve consideration.
We should all agree that more people should have health coverage. Too many poor people don't. The question has always been how best to provide it.
There are many reasons to be wary of Obamacare. It was supposed to lower costs, yet premiums and claim costs are increasing. It was supposed to cover more people, yet businesses are reducing their employees' work hours to under 30 because they can't afford to provide them the mandatory coverage.
Otter is rightfully concerned that Medicaid expansion could create a larger dependency on a federal government beating a furious path to bankruptcy. So he raises a legitimate point in wanting to get more Idahoans to take more ownership of their health.
Since the Legislature hasn't the appetite for another rigorous vetting of another contentious issue, Otter should use the rest of the year to consult with the task force he appointed on this issue and show the state what a reformed Medicaid system would look like. Give us specifics on how increased patient responsibility would work. He's going to have plenty of time. Let's see a plan.
It would be fantastic to cover more people and save property taxpayers money. But out-of-control spending is a valid concern. Idaho could be a beacon for the nation if it can produce a workable plan to address all of those concerns.

Sarasota, FL (Sports Network) - Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Brett Lawrie pulled out of the World Baseball Classic on Thursday due to a strained left rib cage.
Lawrie suffered the injury while fielding a ball at third base during Team Canada's exhibition game against the Reds on Wednesday night. The Blue Jays expect Lawrie only to miss two or three weeks.
In 125 games for Toronto last season, Lawrie hit .273 with 11 homers and 48 RBI. He also missed more than a month of action with a similar injury. Last year's strain occurred on the right side of Lawrie's body.
Canada starts pool play against Italy on Friday.

New PA-C Shawna. Love her! On time listens really listens. Multiple treatment plans offered and helped me decide which would be best or at least a starting point. A+++++
Submitted Jan. 29, 2014 | flag
Dr. Milhoan is very knowledgable, but you will wait between 30 to 60 minutes just to see him.
Submitted Dec. 31, 2013 | flag
He is a great Doctor, I just have problems with is staff. alot of the time they are rude, and dont want to help you when you call in.
Submitted Dec. 4, 2012 | flag
Dr. Milhoan is a very nice & caring doctor with a staff that is just as helpful. I haven't had any problems with any of them but I also know that everyone can have an "off" day. As for the comment regarding the copay, you are aware of owing this before the doctor sees you, I understand that it can also be forgotten but you don't go to a restaurant/grocery store & not pay when it's time to check out. Give the office staff a break. She is only doing her job & that office really gets hecktic.
Submitted Nov. 2, 2009 | flag
I'm a client of a different caliber but he has saved my life twice now. If he doesn't know something he gets the right doctor in to help. He is awesome; however, if you have a co-pay make sure you have a means of payment with you. The other day a mother of two small children, both with her, was getting a rash over forgetting her $30 co-pay. The woman explained she was rushed getting out the door and had just forgotten it. She went on to say she lived 3 blocks away and would bring it right back. The worker went on an on and on. He needs to get rid of her, but he is great. LOVE RN GEORGIA! Great personality!
Submitted May 10, 2009 | flag
I would recommend Dr. Milhoan to anyone. He is very knowledgeable and has a wonderful bedside manner. He is wonderful with my children and honestly cares about you as a patient. Like any other physician he can be pressed for time and in a hurry, but despite this he takes the time to answer your questions.
Submitted March 14, 2008 | flag
He is very smart and has a wonderful beside manner. He is also double board certified in both Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. He stays up-to-date on all the latest information. He is very sensible when talking to the patient or child by putting information in terms that can be understood.

(Updates with comment in third paragraph, 2012 growth in fourth, budget in fifth, output detail in last.)
Dec. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Hungary's economic growth accelerated in the third quarter as farm output and industrial exports increased.
Gross domestic product rose 0.5 percent from the previous three months, when growth was 0.2 percent, the statistics office in Budapest said at a news conference today. The economy expanded 1.4 percent from a year earlier after 1.5 percent in the second quarter.
"Growth was mainly due to agricultural production and industrial exports," the statistics office said in its report.
The government will probably have to "strongly" reduce its outlook for growth in 2012 because of European banks pulling capital out of Hungary and a slowing German economy, Prime Minister Viktor Orban said in an interview with French daily Les Echos today.
The Cabinet based its 2012 draft budget on a growth forecast of 1.5 percent. Expansion may be between 0.5 percent and 1 percent, Economy Minister Gyorgy Matolcsy said last month.
Agricultural output rose 28.5 percent in the third quarter from a year earlier, while exports rose 7.6 percent, the statistics office said. Construction output plunged 14.3 percent. Household spending rose 0.1 percent.

The pollen count is high, and many of us are suffering from allergies. Is this a solution? --Scientists create a cedar tree that does not have pollen.
Japanese experts may have engineered a solution to a big problem - hay fever.
Scientists at the Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute say they have successfully developed the first pollen and allergy-free cedar tree.
They altered the DNA makeup of the plant and were able to create region-specific trees that do not produce pollen.
American scientists have already created pollenless pine trees, but no one has ever achieved pollenless cedars...until now.
Experts say it's still in the experimental stage, but low-pollen trees have already been planted across Japan.
And in other news...scientists create 'hypoallergenic apple'
A research group is working on a hypoallergenic apple by substituting natural proteins for those which don't cause an allergic reaction.
Apples aren't usually associated with allergies. But 75 percent of people suffering from an allergy to birch pollen are also allergic to apples. Those sensitive to apples can suffer from unpleasant irritation and blistering of the tongue and lips.

Am I the only one who thinks Winchester Bros and Starsky and Hutch are eerily similar
So there are those two sexy guys, one taller with longish hair and shorter one with a car…
The taller guy prides himself on his college education and cultural refinement. He's more balanced, calmer and empathic of the two - the one to reach out for victims and the one to comfort them. He thinks he's the 'adult' in their duo (being more sophisticated and logical), and he's self appointed conscience of the dynamic duo.
At the same time, he rebels against authority and his family.
He eats healthy. Or at least tries.
If you have sex with him, you'll either die (especially if you're wife/really serious girlfriend) or get really hurt. And if you don't die or get hurt… that means you were the baddie of the episode, sorry.
Oh, and don't forget the bitchface. He's a master of bitchface. And bitching about everything the other guy does.
Oh and he stopped getting haircut in 1st season.
The shorter guy is in unhealthy relationship with his wonderful car that is his pride and joy (and at one point he will comfort the other guy by offering him to drive). Seriously, you don't want to mess with his baby.
He's trying to be the manly macho guy, but in reality he wears his heart on his sleeve. He IS tough guy, no doubt about that, but when it comes to it, he's the more emotional of the two. Oh, and he's big kid at heart – and he's great with kids, too (he really connects with children, and gets them to open up to him). He's the enthusiastic one.
Family is important to him – and he's damn proud of his father, whom he considers a hero, even though others might disagree. He continues his father's work.
He's a big eater, stuffing himself with whatever he can find… except for healthy 'rabbit food'.
Did I mention his profound love for his car?
He's a real smartass that can't keep his mouth shut. Oh, and somehow he always gets to be the butt of the joke.
He often teases the other guy for being 'geeky', but, in reality, he's the one to know old movies and get obscure popculture references.
And those two guys? They would do anything and everything for each other.

I once had a person who kept undercutting my herbs by 2 silver. Every single time it was only by 2 silver regardless of what ridiculous price I put on them. I immediately put a few items for 50s and he put up his ENTIRE STOCK for 48s each. I bought everything he had and immediately took off my sale. I lost a few of my sales because of fast buyers but my profit was so high that I made several hundred potions (I'm not kidding) and got my alchemy up by 48 skill.
Greatest profit known to man is Stupid Botters. I later got a whisper from him layered in profanity about how i bought all his herbs and how he wants them back because I was being a ......... I told him that i used them and that he should go............
That was a good day for me.
Colerejuste said...
That's awesome. I'll definitely keep that one in mind, should I ever some across it.
That event capped me at 450 alchemy so I wasn't too mad at him especially because I made a several thousand gold out of it.
He told me to do several horrible things to myself (I'm not going to go into too much detail about that) and he didn't shut up until I pointed out why he put them at such a low low price and he admitted to botting. I reported because I had finally procured the evidence (of him being an idiot), but I was almost sad to never hear from him again.

5 Simple Tips for the Cold and Flu Season—Even When It's 70 Degrees in LA
A pediatrician gives advice for keeping little ones well this time of year
While the rest of the nation has been dealing with the Polar Vortex, we over here in sunny LA have been enjoying temperatures of 70 degrees and above. It's the middle of the winter here, but other than an increase of UGGs being worn (with cut offs and skirts, mind you), you won't even realize it. Birds are chirping, we're spending time at the beach, we're lunching al fresco… and we've been rubbing it in to our friends in other parts of the country (who are wearing four layers as they scrape the ice off their car windshields) by posting Facebook photos of us barbecuing in shorts and a tank top with the hashtag #polarvortex. Yeah, we're jerks. But even though we have some undeniably beautiful weather, we are still prone to getting sick. In fact, uncannily enough, I am writing this article as I sit in my bed with the flu. And it's awful. I can tell you, even sunny blue skies and the sight of people rollerblading make no difference when you feel like crap. How can I make sure that my family, especially my 14-month-old doesn't get sick, too? Well, Pediatrician and dad, Dr. Jack Maypole, has some sound advice for keeping Baby and the rest of the family clear of those dreaded winter viruses.
1. Be Vigilant and Communicate
Dr. Maypole recommends that parents and teachers or day care providers "keep the channels open around their child's health, including times of illness in the classroom or in the household." When your baby or toddler is sick, let her daycare, play gym, pre-school, people with whom you and junior regularly come in contact, know as soon as possible. Encourage those same people to put you on notice when illness has infiltrated the group. Maypole states that some viruses spread like wildfire, and vigilance with honest communication can halt their spread.
2. Know When to Keep Your Little One Home From Play Dates, Pre-School, Day Care, Etc.
Dr. Maypole says while it may be reasonable to take an otherwise healthy baby with a cough and runny nose to music class or pre-school, a baby with more severe symptoms such as fever, vomiting and diarrhea should probably stay home until either cleared by their health care provider or the symptoms have been absent for 24 hours. If you're unsure, call your baby's pediatrician and have her help you assess the situation.
3. Do Everything Possible to Keep Baby Away From a Sick Family Member
This is where I messed up. Though I've been letting my husband take over with my 14-month-old while I've been sick, I allowed the little monkey to climb onto me one time as I lay in bed. And, Boom! She's sick now, too. Up all last night with a fever, chills and cough. It's terrible to see her like that, and even worse to know that my one, dumb move was probably the cause. Dr. Maypole advises parents: "The best one can. If there is a household member laid low by illness, try to give them the benefit of quarantine, isolating them (but still attending to them!), keeping their toys or items separate from where others may roam."
4. Wash Your Hands!
Research supports that this may be the best way to limit the spread of infectious illnesses between family members. Maypole suggests that kids learn to wash their hands for as long as it takes to sing "Happy Birthday."
5. Consider a Flu Shot.
Dr. Maypole advises that all parents should consider getting a flu shot for all eligible members of their families.
"Since 2010, the U.S. has moved to recommending universal vaccinations for nearly everyone over 6 months of age, ideally as early as October (but the season lasts well into the spring). The vaccine is the best line of defense against the disease. While influenza, or "flu" may occur as a mild illness, it can be particularly nasty–or dangerous–in younger children or anyone with a complex or chronic illness (including diabetes, asthma, neurologic problems or former premature infants). Flu infections cause up to 20,000 hospitalizations in children under 5 each year. For most children, the flu vaccine is safe and offers cross protection against the different varieties that occur each season."
Maypole suggests that you speak with your child's primary care provider should you have questions or concerns about the flu shot.
I say, heed this advice. Had I been strict in doing all these things, perhaps I could have avoided this awful flu, but more importantly, I could have avoided giving it to my little one. And know that no matter where you live in the country, from New England to sunny LA, flu and cold season happens. Yep, even outside of the Polar Vortex, we can still get sick… But, I'm not going to lie, it doesn't suck to know that as soon as we're all well, we can go enjoy the beach and that 83-degree weather.
Jack Maypole, M.D., is a member of the Educational Advisory Board for The Goddard School®. Dr. Maypole is a primary care pediatrician and the director of the Comprehensive Care Program at Boston Medical Center. He is also an assistant professor of pediatrics at Boston University School of Medicine.

We now have an infinite ability to know and remember things thanks to the internet and services like Google, IMDB, Wikipedia and the like. But when it comes to our physical skills like walking, seeing, touching and so on, technology hasn't really played a part…until now. Integrating the tech with our body through wearable technology is starting to show us the potential of extending our physicality beyond our natural capabilities. One of these devices is the gesture control armband, Myo. Created by Canadian startup, Thalmic Labs, the Myo armband uses the kinetic energy in your arm to identify hand gestures and is also equipped with motions sensors to detect the movement of your arms. When connected to any smart "thing" using Bluetooth, like your tablet or Smart TV, the Myo turns your hand into a controller letting users swipe through pages, or turn up the volume with just a flick of the hand. Thalmic Labs is getting ready to release the final production unit of the Myo to its developer community in the next month. A select few of the over 10,000 developer applicants currently have an alpha unit of the Myo to help create some initial applications for the device. The Thalmic team have released videos on its YouTube channel giving a sneak peek of the types of apps that are being worked on including the use of the Myo to control robotics, play games, fly a drone and enhance the Oculus Rift virtual reality experience. Chris Goodine, Developer Evangelist at Thalmic Labs, told Designers of Things that one of the biggest learnings from the initial developer access was how the developer community started to create developer tools for the device. This inspired the Thalmic Team to create more support for its SDK for the official developer roll-out. Goodine told us that the first step developers usually take with the Myo is to implement gestures into their existing software in lieu of touch or a mouse. For Goodine this is a great start but often the value proposition in using gesture within the app isn't exactly clear. He believes that once developers get the hang of using gesture, they will start to think outside the box to create net new experiences for the Myo. As gesture is a new input, Goodine explained that the Myo is expected to come with a tutorial to help users understand the basics. The Myo will also come equipped with only a handful of gestures to start which should help reduce any confusion. He is also seeing developers include a command screen or guided help in their own apps to help the user orient themselves. The Myo is currently in pre-orders and is expected to ship later this Fall after the developer units are in the hands of the developer community. It will be quite exciting to see what apps will be available for users at that time and how the developers utilized gesture to take there experiences to the next level. - - - - - - - - This article is part of our featured speaker series for Designers of Things Conference which takes place September 23-24, 2014 at the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco, California.

"Writing for Scott has been cathartic," she says.
"At times it has been difficult for other family members because we have different memories of those times. But I understand that it has been necessary for Scott to make sense of his life by writing."
Bruce Bortz, the founder of the Baltimore-based Bancroft Press, points out that it's rare for any author to both write and illustrate his own work — let alone an author who is dyslexic and color-blind.
"I have no idea how he does it," says Bortz, who has published several of Fuqua's novels. "It would be unusual for anyone without his disabilities to write and illustrate as well as he does. He's brilliant at both."
A perk of Fuqua's workday is that he spends lots of time with his kids: Calla, 17, and Gabe, 10. Both have provided an inspiration for the books and served as models for the illustrations.
For instance, when Fuqua was working on "Calvert the Raven," he asked Gabe to pose by pretending to fly through the sky on a raven's back. The boy perched on a coffee table, thrust out his arms and legs for balance, and tilted back and forth.
Now readers who pick up a copy of "Calvert the Raven" will see a drawing on the cover of a lively boy with curly dark hair witnessing the Battle of Baltimore firsthand. There the boy is, astride the back of a great black bird and soaring high above the shark-filled water.

Men In Black: A Hardcore Parody
Brad Armstrong's parody of the '90s super-hit is sheer entertainment. Script, acting, direction, sex performance and — crucially — makeup and special effects combine for a superb example of couples-friendly porn. Randy Spears and Ethan Hunt take the Tommy Lee Jones-Will Smith roles of Kay and Jay, U.S. agents in charge of investigating space aliens. The thread of a story-line involves them tracking down the disappearance of earth girls somewhere into space. To solve the mystery it's necessary for Jay to undergo an electronic sex change. He's turned into the delectable Misty Stone, who does a killer masturbation with her new pussy.
There is lots of funny stuff with the bizarre-looking aliens, plus a quartet of talking Peckerhead puppets, and Kaylani Lei gets to have three tits. Tommy Pistol, with a freakishly enlarged head, nose and ears, has his way with Isis Taylor. The hottest sex scene would be the anal between Alektra Blue as a dominatrix and Xander Corvus as a submissive with an extra head. The movie ends with an orgy with the MiB guys and the abducted women, along with Jessica Drake as a "Vaginarian." The humor is sparked and driven by Spears' dryly comic performance. Easily one of the best XXX releases of 2012. —Jared Rutter, XBIZ Editors Choice

Dark Knight XXX: A Porn Parody
Director Axel Braun's "Dark Knight XXX" sets the bar for adult parody filmmaking for a variety of reasons, including its inspired make-up and wardrobe, visually engaging and fun set design and formidable acting and performing talent. However, most impressive is Braun's ability to present a parody that is faithful to its source while bringing fresh ideas to the table and never — not once — forgetting that it's still a porno.
Directing from a script he co-wrote with Mark Logan, Braun covers a lot of the groundwork laid in Christopher Nolan's "Dark Knight" trilogy with a taut, satisfying story that allows for creative and bold sex scenes guaranteed to get comic-geeks and cos-play enthusiasts off for years on end.
"Dark Knight XXX" finds Bruce Wayne (Giovanni Francesco) living in self-imposed exile away from Gotham City in a cabin high up in the snow-crested mountains. He regrets his Batman alter ego, believing it has led to the rise of more dangerous, bloodthirsty criminals eager to destroy all he holds dear. Unfortunately, Wayne's plans to brood in peace are disrupted when Catwoman (Aiden Ashley) informs him that a terrorist by the name of Bane (Derrick Pierce) has taken his ex-fiancée, Kathy Kane (Andy San Dimas), hostage. Wayne has no choice but to return to Gotham as the caped crusader.
While the film's CGI and fight sequences leave a lot to be desired, the acting performances are the best to be found in adult. Francesco as Wayne/Batman emotes torment and sorrow (and does a pretty good job of mimicking the Dark Knight's barking tone). Brendon Miller does a remarkable job of channeling the late Heath Ledger's Joker, madcap mayhem and all. His onscreen partner Penny Pax also shines as Batgirl Barbara Gordon, Commissioner Gordon's daughter.
Miller and Pax also share the film's kinkiest and hottest scene, in which the Joker ass-fucks Batgirl while her father, imprisoned in a cage, helplessly watches nearby. Batgirl hopes that The Joker will show mercy and release them in exchange for submitting to his deviant desires, but is instead rewarded with a bullet to the spine. A three-way with Bane, Catwoman and Kathy Kane is also rewind-worthy.
"The Dark Knight XXX" was produced months before the release of Nolan's "The Dark Knight Rises," the third and final film in the Warner Bros. franchise, leaving Braun blind to that film's storyline. But fear not, Braun and Logan leave their take on the Dark knight legend open ended for more sequels to come. —XBIZ Editors Choice

Dallas XXX: A Parody
Aficionados of the long-running series will respond to this one best. The parody element is kind of hit and miss. Sometimes the show's campy excesses are really nailed but at other times — as in the long dialogue scenes that set up the "plot" — it seems like just an attempt at drama that doesn't quite get there. The only overt gag is having Miss Ellie played by a man.
Still, the movie is well shot and the cast is quite good. Alexis Ford is perfect for horny Lucy and looks fetching in two sex scenes. Bobbi Starr is a hoot as neurotic nymphomaniac Sue Ellen. She seems to be having loads of fun and her scene with the "tall handsome cowboy" (Michael Vegas) she picks up in a bar is the best in the movie. The sex in general, as in most parodies, is somewhat by the numbers.
Eric Masterson is a bit small-scaled for the villainous J.R. Ewing, more like a mean petty crook than a wicked wheeler-dealer. But James Deen's self-righteous Bobby Ewing is spot-on and even funny. And there are several good non-sex cameos. It ends with J.R. being shot, setting up a possible "Who Killed J.R.?" sequel.

Avengers XXX
Another excellent Axel Braun adventure from Vivid Superheroes. Hitting the street after the release of the smash hit movie, it's really a parody of the comics the film was based on. Director Braun roped in a fine cast to play the avenging heroes — they're out to get The Hulk (Jordan Lane, non-sex).
There's Brooklyn Lee as Black Widow, Danni Cole as Scarlet Witch, Lexi Swallow as Miss Marvel. Team leader is Nick Fury, incarnated by Lexington Steele. Brendon Miller overacts hilariously as Thor and gets to fuck former WWF star Chyna, as She-Hulk, whose sturdy bod is painted green. Spider-man tries to join the gang but at first they won't let him. Xander Corvus reprises his role as Spidey and trades barbs with Dale DaBone as Iron Man Tony Stark. When he fucks Miss Marvel she tells him, "You have an image problem."
There's only about 16 minutes of story, but it's all great fun. The rest is sex, and the sex is good. Steele, an imposing screen presence, has the only anal scene, with Phoenix Marie. "The Avengers" somehow wind up at the Arctic Circle where they find Capt. America embedded in ice. Obviously, the story doesn't stop here.

Real Housewives of South Beach
Pleasure Dynasty is proving to be a formidable force in the parody market. The Florida-based upstart has already impressed with its hot and clever takes on Martin Scorsees's Taxi Driver and Antonie Fuqua's Training Day. Now it's ready to spoof reality TV. The target: The Real Housewives of Miama. The Bravo reality series about rich trophy housewives and bitchy business women living in Miami, is rich for parody and gets a proper send-up from director Dana Dane, working from a very funny script by Dick Chibbles.

American Werewolf in London XXX
Strong comedic performances, imaginative camerawork and campy old-school horror effects and make-up are just some of the reasons why director Jim Powers' parody of "An American Werewolf in London" may keep viewers sitting around waiting to see how it will all end. The 1981 John Landis horror-comedy couldn't be better suited for Powers' brand of madcap moviemaking. Not only does he do a deft job of recreating memorable scenes and shots from the original, but even manages to make them more outrageous and hilarious.
Plot wise, Powers keeps things relatively familiar. Richie and Dane Cross play David Kessler and Jack Goodman, two American college buddies backpacking through England's Yorkshire moors. A werewolf attacks them, leaving Jack dead and biting David just minutes before it's gunned down by nearby townsfolk. David is taken to a hospital where he is plagued by a boner that won't go away, visions of his dead friend and extremely creepy surreal night terrors, one of which finds mutant Nazi lesbians murdering his family in their home before smacking clams on their kitchen counter.
The sequence is a very funny nod to the mutant Nazi nightmare David has in the original. Riley Jensen and Brett Rossi play the mutant dykes while wearing horrific masks and nothing else. Oddly enough, the scene plays out both disturbing and sexy. Jack's ghost warns David that things will only get worse once the moon is full, and that he should kill himself to spare the deaths of innocents. Of course, it takes awhile for David to accept this.
Utilizing shaky-cam techniques, Powers captures the havoc and horror werewolf David unleashes on London to great effect. Kudos to the producers for allowing Powers to shoot in London. Those shots are amazing and great fun to watch. —Nelson X, XBIZ Editors Choice

Star Wars XXX: A Porn Parody
2013 AVN Winner for Best Screen play (Parody), Best supporting Actor (Tom Bryon), Best Art Direction, Best Director (Axel Braun), Best Selling Title of 2012
As with any great porn parody the quality of the sex is as high as the parody. With 6 sex scenes you get a lot of fuck for your buck and a good variety of sex scenes which fit into the narrative and delicious detours. The sex here is top notch and Vivid hasn't softened it down at all with a solid amount of anal action. The best of the scenes are the orgy in Mos Eisley's Cantina and the Wookie Sex Scene.
Star Wars XXX is available at:
Elvis XXX A Porn Parody
2012 AVN Award Winner for
The gyrating pelvis and shaking leg of Elvis used to pass for obscene, resulting in a call for a boycott of his music on moral grounds. The religious right got their asses handed to them in that battle of the cultural wars as Elvis survived their harassment to transcend from rock star to American myth and legend and a very appropriate subject for a porn tribute.
There's plenty of works about Elvis to draw from but director Axel Braun seems to have focused on the 2005 television mini- series, not that it matters because the characters are familiar to everyone and that makes this sexualized retelling of Elvis' life even more fun. In addition to watching Elvis thrust his pelvis far more than he ever did on the "Ed Sullivan Show," we get to see Ann Margaret (Lexi Belle), Marilyn Monroe (Codi Carmichael), Natalie Wood (Jessie Palmer, in her first anal), and Priscilla Presley (Andy San Dimas) fucking the way we see them in our fantasies. [DVD includes a non-sex party version]
The King (sorry Bill Margold, even John Holmes must step aside when Elvis takes the stage) is played by two performers; J. Jay does have a passing resemblance to Young Elvis but Dale DaBone nails the role of Vegas Elvis in all of its rhinestone glory.
Naturally, there's adult-themed songs based on Elvis' standard that are both humorous and well-produced. Tyler Knight turns in an excellent performance as Muhammad Ali although he's outshone by Asa Akira and Jessica Bangkok, two whores that Elvis drops off as presents (Elvis was all about presents). Asa and Jessica work well together, working over Tyler with a ferocity that makes the scene worth watching multiple times. Thank you, thank you very much. —Scott Ross, XBIZ Editors Choice

Beverly Hillbillies XXX
Ellie Mae Clampett from the Beverly Hillbillies is one of the television's sexiest characters; she's a naive blonde beauty with a bubbly personality and a penchant for shirts that emphasize her buxom breasts -- and she's a pretty good rifle shot too. She is the stuff of many a masturbation fantasy. So obviously the most important concerns in a porn parody of the 60's sitcom are who's going to play Ellie Mae and how awesome is her sex scene.

Superconducting circuits based on Josephson junctions are promising candidates for the implementation of solid-state qubits. In most of the recent experiments on these circuits, the qubits are controlled by a classical field containing a large number of photons. The possibility of coherently coupling these systems to a single photon has been recently suggested, opening the possibility to study analogs of quantum optics in condensed matter systems.
Natural critical phenomena are characterized by laminar periods separated by events where bursts of activity take place, and by the interrelated self-similarity of space-time scales and of the event sizes. One example are earthquakes: for this case a new approach to quantify correlations between events reveals new phenomenology. By linking correlated earthquakes one creates a scale-free network of events, which can have applications in hazard assessment.
