Political Truth and Fact.Com
Neither fair nor balanced, but absolutely factual
The WikiLeak espionage case is not a First Amendment case – lives are at stake
Many Years ago during target study for my SAC B-47 combat crew, I was shocked to see an article from a well-known magazine stamped "Top Secret". My Aircraft Commander explained that context was involved. The mere fact such an article was included in a SAC target study could tip off Soviet Intelligence to what our specific target was and, thus, how they could better plan to intercept and shoot us down. The importance of materials can be modified by extraneous matters not readily apparent. Thus negative discussions about the WikiLeaks disclosure of secret or confidential materials, is clearer than editors and commentators might understand. They don't have an ability to judge such matters.
Neither does anti-American conspirator, Julian Assange, who is irresponsibly dumping classified materials into public news outlets. Even if his motives and those of editors who reprint the materials, were pure, neither Assange nor the editors are competent to judge. Neither are they competent to understand the potential damage his journalistic vandalism may cause – especially how many lives may be lost because of the revelations.
Those who attempt First Amendment arguments in the case simply don't get it. They are dead wrong, and their reasoning flawed by an obvious ignorance of what is at stake.
The WikiLeaks story cannot be justified, and those involved in the theft, release, and publication of such material should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. National security is involved, and how it is involved may well be quite beyond the understanding of people outside those for whom the materials were intended. First Amendment considerations take second place when our nation's security is at stake.
Of course, Julian Assange doesn't care about this nation's security. He is on a malicious mission with nothing more than inflicting as much damage as possible on this country in his calculations. A full investigation of the affair should be giving top priority. However, Attorney General Eric Holder is probably among the weaker characters to whom such a mission might be assigned.
An enlisted man who had access to such materials is being held in the case. He should be charged with treason – as if that charge has any meaning these days. Former prosecutors caution that cases involving leaked classified information are difficult to win because the Espionage Act is a 1917 statute passed before more liberal Supreme Court cases expanded First Amendment protections.
For his part, Assange, tells ABC News through emails from a hideout, that he believes his safety and freedom are in danger. Yet he remains undaunted and says the material dumps are aimed at "lying, corrupt and murderous leadership from Bahrain to Brazil."
"We're only one thousandth of the way in and look at what has so far being revealed, says Assange, "there will be many more," he defiantly proclaims.
Suggestions the First Amendment should protect aliens such as Assange who act so maliciously, and who show a total lack of concern for the lives the information endangers, are ridiculous. We are at war with brutal and savage enemies who, as we learn from our most recent domestic terror case, care nothing about American lives – even the lives of innocent children.
Perhaps Assange's case should be assigned to clandestine "black ops" groups who act without worrying about legal niceties. We are at war, after all, and the courtroom is no place in which war should be conducted.
The day's top political news:
Obama calls for 2-year freeze on federal pay, Hoyer wants Military included
President Barack Obama on Monday proposed a two-year freeze of the salaries of some 2 million federal workers, trying to seize the deficit-cutting initiative from Republicans with a sudden, dramatic stroke. Though signaling White House concern over record deficits, the freeze would make only a tiny dent in annual deficits or the nation's $14 trillion debt.The administration said the plan was designed to save more than $5 billion over the first two years.
The proposal, which must be approved by Congress, would not apply to the military, but it would affect all others on the Executive Branch payroll. It would not affect members of Congress or
However, Hoyer says Military should also see pay freeze. The second-ranking House Democrat says President Obama's freeze of the pay of civilian federal employees should also be extended to military personnel. Hoyer (D-Md.) said including the military would have increased savings and add "an element of fairness."
AP-CNBC Poll: Cut services to balance the budget
To ease surging budget deficits, Americans prefer cutting federal services to raising taxes by nearly 2-1 in a new poll. Yet there is little consensus on specific, meaningful steps — and a wariness about touching two gargantuan programs, Social Security and Medicare.
An Associated Press-CNBC Poll showed widespread anxiety about budget shortfalls exceeding $1 trillion a year. Eighty-five percent worry that growing red ink will harm future generations — the strongest expression of concern since AP polls began asking the question in 2008. Fifty-six percent think the shortfalls will spark a major economic crisis in the coming decade.
As for detailed cures, the poll shows little agreement — a problem that has long bedeviled lawmakers who often speak about taming federal deficits but seldom vote to do so. Given more than a dozen options for helping balance the budget, majorities backed just four: Reduce the number of federal workers, trim their salaries, cut overseas military bases and eliminate the tax deduction on home mortgage interest in exchange for lower income tax rates.
U.S. scrambles to contain WikiLeaks damage
Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton and other officials shrug off the undiplomatic assessments revealed in the diplomatic cables, saying they won't affect long-term ties, even as they promise to tighten security and punish the culprits.
The massive leak of secret diplomatic cables sent a tremor from Washington through world capitals Monday, exposing deception and scheming that world leaders take great pains to keep private and complicating some of America's most sensitive strategic relations.
Release of the cables by the WikiLeaks website Sunday shocked a culture built on the expectation that candid discussions should remain exactly that — amounting, in the words of the Italian foreign minister, to the "Sept. 11 of world diplomacy." Diplomats and world leaders said the revelations probably would make them less forthcoming in their discussions and their reports back home, a development that could make it more difficult to manage policy and head off problems. There were indications that the leak could cause a backlash in countries vital to U.S. interests, such as Pakistan and Yemen.

We're a rather small, international hardcore raiding guild. Our primary focus in raiding is beating the endgame. However we do encourage and participate in PvP where this does not interfere with our PvE progression. We cleared all TBC and Wotlk raiding content, including Sartharion with 3 adds up (Both 25 and 10 man).
You can check our progress here: Wowprogress for Kor'gall
We're looking for...
At this point it's not of much importance what gear you have, as long as you've replaced most of your 70 pieces. We're not looking for a small term fix to our roster either. You are the right person for us, if you want to find a new raiding guild for WotLK and beyond. You want to raid competively and have previous high end raiding experience. Most of the people in our guild have been playing WoW since the beginning of time. And many of us became even real life friends by now. If you'd like to be part of our cozy community, this is the chance.
Over the last few weeks we recruited quite a few new fellows and our roster is filling up again. We're aiming for a total of 35 raiders at the launch of the next content patch. Three of each class plus some extras. To reach that goal we're currently still looking for:
- 1 Druid. Resto spec
- 1 Enhancement Shaman.
- 1 Priest (holy/disc)
- 1 Warlock
As always, we're also considering exceptional applications from other classes. Probably in most need are a Deathknight, a rogue and a warlock.
We still have some open spots to complete our raiding roster. As with most other guilds, you need to be level 80 to apply. We will try our best to reply to your application the soonest possible.
We are running raids on average four days of the week. In general our raids start at 19:30 and end at 23:00. We sometimes extend these times for progression, though it's the exception and not the rule. Since we are focusing on quality raids over quantity it is expected that raiders come fully prepared and focused. Currently we're doing 25man achievement runs on wednesday and thursday. Monday and Tuesday the same for 10man content.
During time of progression we employ burst management. We drop old instances from our raiding schedule and extend our raid days. In exchange, we cut down on raiding during the summer months. We usually have a break in raiding during the Christmas time.
We are a closed community with chosen members. Therefore we will not invite friends and family. Though we have social ranks for our veterans. We are dedicated players that expect a high level of skill from new members.
Generally we run with a tight roster. Raiders are expected to have an attendance of at least 80%. Thereby there is no such thing as a backup or halftime spot - every raider is expected to meet 80% attendance. Rotations might be necessary but will not influence our members loot priority.
To be considered for recruitment, an application form has to be filled out on posted on the forum. The application will be reviewed by the whole guild. After being considered for a full time raider spot, there is a trial period of around 3-4 weeks.
We choose our new recruits based on personality, maturity, past raiding experiences, the knowledge of their class, their drive for progress, their english skills, computer hardware and connection. They should not be afraid to talk on Ventrilo and need to be fun to have around.
Loot Distribution
We will try to distribute loot in such a way that:
- Players that invest more time gain proportionally more than those that invest less
- It helps the guild to progress
- Leaders have little to no special advantage
Since loot is not our primary focus, we employ a simple DKP system with a loot council component. Priority is checked by seniority (raider > trial > casual), main spec over offspecs and attendance. Players who are on standby due to rotations will not be punished by losing priority.
Hardware and Connection
Every member must generally be able to perform under raid conditions. Your connection must be reliable enough to not disconnect constantly, that you are not lagging badly or have to reconnect frequently. Your hardware must be on top of displaying a large number of characters and/or mobs. You must be able to do your job reliably under these conditions.
Main Characters
The balance of the guild is based upon people playing and progressing their main characters. Therefore it is expected that our players focus on developing a main character. You must bring this character on all official raids. Hybrids are encouraged to play and excel in more than their main spec. We encourage alts who play a different raid role than main characters. Though main characters are given priority in all aspects.
Contact Details
If you think, we might be the guild for you feel free to have a talk with Scurr, Aryi, Fandom, Laqueesha, Salewen or Shevah ingame. Check out our forums, our guild charter(!) and the recruitment application. If you'd like to get an idea about our raids also check out our movies (more coming soon!). If you prefer to make a non-public application feel free to whisper the named players ingame about it.

The chapters in volume 15 of ROCD address a wide array of topics, challenges, and gaps in our knowledge of organizational change. Purser, Bluedorn and Petranker explore the dynamics of time in organizational change, proposing the use of the concept of "flow time." Falkenberg and her colleagues examine the issue of excessive change in organizations, which they define as the simultaneous pursuit of multiple unrelated changes. Real and Poole develop a framework for classifying approaches to conceptualizing and measuring innovation implementation. Roth provides a case description of knowledge creation stemming from a team composed of university, business, and consulting organizations.Ferdig and Ludema examine change via self-organizing processes at the U.S. National Regulatory Commission, the government agency that monitors nuclear reactors. Wischnevsky and Damanpour explore the punctuated equilibrium model of organizational transformation in the banking industry. Golembiewski and his colleagues address the application of organization development across cultures, specifically the use of OD within those cultures where Confucian ideas are prominent.Coghlan and Coughlan report on the CO-IMPROVE project - an action research initiative funded by the European Union. Finally, Yeager, Sorensen and Bengtsson assess the current state-of-the-use of appreciative inquiry in programs of organizational change.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- A former BP engineer charged with deleting text messages about the company's response to the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico faces new allegations that he also deleted voicemails from his phone.
A superseding indictment handed up Wednesday by a federal grand jury in New Orleans accuses Kurt Mix of deleting about 40 voicemails from a supervisor and roughly 15 voicemails from a BP contractor.
Mix, of Katy, Texas, pleaded not guilty in May to two counts of obstruction of justice after he was charged with deliberately deleting more than 200 text messages to and from the supervisor and more than 100 to and from the contractor.
Prosecutors claim he deleted the messages to prevent them from being used in a grand jury's probe of the spill.

PDL BioPharma Inc. (PDLI - Analyst Report) recently announced that it expects to generate third-quarter 2011 revenues of $83 million, representing a 3% decline from year-ago revenues of $86.0 million. The Zacks Consensus estimate for the third quarter revenue is $86 million.
At present, PDL receives royalty on worldwide net sales of Roche Holdings Ltd.'s (RHHBY) Avastin, Xolair and Herceptin; Roche and Novartis AG's (NVS - Snapshot Report) Lucentis, and Elan Corporation (ELN - Snapshot Report) and Biogen Idec's (BIIB - Analyst Report) Tysabri. While the royalty payments are tiered in the US, PDL receives a flat 3% royalty if a product is both manufactured and sold outside the US. However, Tysabri royalties are calculated at a flat rate as a percentage of sales, irrespective of the manufacturing or sales location.
Increased royalties in the quarter from higher sales of Herceptin, Lucentis and Tysabri were offset by reduced royalty from Avastin sales. Avastin sales were affected by the regulatory and reimbursement uncertainty surrounding the metastatic breast cancer indication of the drug. Also contributing to the decline was lower average royalty rate on Roche's products, as a higher proportion was generated from products made or sold in the US, which generates lower royalties than sales outside the US.
In the third quarter, PDL BioPharma will receive royalties on second quarter 2011 sales achieved by the above mentioned drugs.
However, the guidance includes the payment from Novartis under PDL's settlement with Novartis, which the companies had entered into in February 2011. The estimated payment will be based on sales of Lucentis outside the US made by Novartis in the second quarter.
Our Recommendation
Currently, we have a Neutral recommendation on PDL BioPharma. The stock carries a Zacks #3 Rank ("Hold") in the short term. Overall, we are encouraged by PDL BioPharma's recent progress in resolving multiple disagreements with Novartis, UCB Pharma and European Patent Office's decision to uphold the validity of the European patents. Nonetheless, the litigation with Roche continues.
The recent favorable Nevada ruling is encouraging, which could lead to a relatively swift resolution of the Roche challenge. Overall, we believe that PDL BioPharma has an upper hand in the case.

Apple's Retail Push into China Still Limited, But Ramping Up
Back in February 2010, Apple's then-retail chief Ron Johnson noted during the company's annual shareholder meeting that it was planning to open up to 25 retail stores in China over the following two years. At the time, Apple operated only a single store in Beijing that had opened in time for the 2008 Summer Olympics held there. Apple's IFC Mall retail store in Hong Kong Well more than two years later, Apple still has only six retail stores in its Greater China region, with five in China proper and one in Hong Kong. And as noted by Reuters , Apple has more stores in Pennsylvania (eight) than it does in Greater China. The shortage of retail stores and authorized re-sellers leaves ample room for unlicensed re-sellers to move in. Bad consumer experiences at these unauthorized shops are common and they run the risk of eventually eroding confidence in Apple's products, said David Wolf, chief executive of Beijing-based consultancy Wolf Group Asia. If Apple doesn't expand its network of stores and authorized re-sellers, it "loses not only near-term sales, it also endangers the sustainability of its success in China," he said. The report does not pin down the reasons behind Apple's slower-than-planned pace of retail store expansion in China, only suggesting that the company may be running up against bureaucratic hurdles that have complicated its plans. Apple may, however, be nearly ready for a substantial expansion of its retail footprint in China, as M.I.C. gadget just yesterday posted a summary of six more stores that are currently in the works. Most of the locations have been discussed at one time or another in recent months, but the new summary provides a consolidated picture of what Apple's Chinese customers can expect. The forthcoming locations include: – Shenzhen : One of Foxconn's major hubs for iOS device production, Shenzhen will see a new Apple retail store going in at the Yitian Plaza shopping mall, according to M.I.C. gadget . The report includes photos of a boarded-up section of the mall where Apple is rumored to be building a two-level store, with an opening predicted for late this year or early next year. – Chengdu : Apple appears set to open two retail stores in Chengdu, another of Foxconn's manufacturing hubs in China. The first may open as soon as September in the high-end Raffles Square district while the second is said to be a major store opening at the MixC shopping center. That location may open in December. – Guangzhou : Relatively few details on this location are known, but according to the report Apple is preparing to open a store in the Grand City Plaza district. Major renovations for the area have, however, yet to take place. – Dalian : As we previously covered , Apple is said to be planning its world's largest retail store for Dalian in northeastern China. No details on an opening are yet known, but previous information suggested that work was indeed underway on the store. – Hong Kong : In February 2011, reports claimed that Apple would be opening two retail stores in Hong Kong: a 15,000 square foot location at the IFC Mall by the end of 2011 and a 20,000 square foot location at Hysan Place by the second or third quarter of 2012. The IFC Mall store did open in September 2011 , and M.I.C. gadget indicates that Apple should at least come close to meeting its target for the Hysan Place store with a late 2012 or early 2013 opening.

I Remember
I Remember
I remember the day you were diagnosed.
I remember how sick you looked, how much weight you had lost, how you had dark circles under your eyes, how sad you were.
I remember the finger pokes you so despised, how you'd throw your poker on the floor with such anger and how you'd refuse to test your blood sugar.
I remember the screaming - blood curdling screams that filled the house -
I'd cover my ears and close my eyes as dad held you down and mom did your shot.
I remember the bright blue and purple bruises the shots would sometimes leave on your body.
I remember you buying two Almond Joys® at the gas station and scarfing them down before we got home, and how you'd tell me not to tell mom or you'd kill me and I'd be in so much trouble. And I never told because you were my "Big Sister."
I remember how you hid your diabetes from your friends.
I remember how you'd cry at night wishing it would go away.
And then later...
I remember the morning you woke up and you couldn't see.
Your eyes had bled from complications.
I remember every one of the 24 laser surgeries you had to stop the bleeding.
I remember thinking "Could it get any worse?"
And I remember how we cried.
And then I remember Camp Needlepoint.
I remember the pictures of you with your new friends, campfires, horses, canoeing and so much more.
I remember you teaching me you could have an Almond Joys® as long as you took insulin for it.
I remember how Camp made you feel strong, feel normal and feel confident.
I remember that first year you went and you came back a different kid - a happier kid.
I remember you could poke your finger and you didn't seem so mad.
I remember you showing mom and dad how now you could do your own shot.
I remember how you now told anyone and everyone that you had diabetes.
I remember how you couldn't wait to be a Camp counselor one day.
And then later...
I remember when I went to college - I was going to be a nurse.
I remember when I became a nurse - I was going to go into diabetes.
I remember how I went to work at Camp because I wanted to make a difference for kids living with diabetes.
I remember how I got to help make those kids feel proud, feel normal, feel confident.
And then later...
I remember as my heart seemed to stop when the doctor told me I too, had diabetes.
I remember how despite the sadness in your eyes you said, "You'll be OK. We'll be OK."
And I remember how we cried.
And then I remember Camp Needlepoint...
Where those of us who live with diabetes -
For at least a little while we get to be proud, we get to be normal, and most of all...
We get to forget.

Desiree Rogers too cowardly to testify
Savannah Guthrie reports on the crashers' emails that were supplied by their lawyer Paul W Gardner. Michele S Jones did communicate by email with the crashers but she told them the State Dinner was impossible. She left a phone message that husband crasher said he didn't get because the dog ate his homework his cellphone battery died.
Crashers said they went through three checkpoints – showing their passports and answering questions each time.
Husband crasher said their name was on the list in one of his emails to Jones.
Michele S Jones statement in regards to the emails.
Roxanne Roberts, who outed the crashers initially and even told two of FLOTUS' staff members about the crashers after they had arrived — the staff did nothing, even though they admitted they knew the crashers' names were not on the list — thinks it's just a reality TV stunt.
Matt made a huge point of saying the crashers weren't being paid – but they already have an agreement with BRAVO which is the same parent company. That may be the real reason they canceled with Larry King.
Dan Abrams doesn't think they can be charged with any sort of crime unless they lied to someone.
They will pay simply from all the exposure into their business dealings. Plus they are going to be recognizable unless she dyes her hair some other color.

SSRI Drugs
More Topics
Luvox is the brand name for the SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) drug fluvoxamine, a class of antidepressants similar to Prozac and Paxil. It was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1994 and has been used by approximately 30 million people.
Most people do not doubt the ability of Luvox and other SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors) drugs to help with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, depression and anxiety. However, there is also concern about severe Luvox Side Effects like serious birth defects that have been linked to the drug.
Experts have now linked the chemicals in Luvox and similar SSRI depression medications with severe birth defects including heart defects, lung defects, persistent pulmonary hypertension in newborns (PPHN) and certain facial and skeletal malformations like cleft palate.
Although prior studies linked SSRI drugs like Luvox to suicidal thoughts and self-mutilation, these most recent Luvox side effects could have as much or more of an effect on women taking the drug and their families.
If you took Luvox before or during pregnancy and have given birth to a child with heart, lung, abdominal or skeletal birth defects, contact us immediately to speak with a Luvox Side Effects Lawyer about your legal options. You may be entitled to substantial compensation for your child's condition.
Experts fear that many of the 30 million adults and teenage patients who have taken Luvox since 1994 were women who may have taken the drug during pregnancy without knowing the risks and unknowingly putting their children at risk.
Parents dealing with the devastating effects of a child's severe birth defect often do not even suspect that the medication they were prescribed years earlier may be the cause of their child's condition, or that legal help is available.
Luvox side effects lawyers with the SSRI Litigation Group are available to help and are currently filing lawsuits against the makers of SSRI drugs on behalf of parents and families affected by the severe birth defects caused by these drugs.
Lawyers have secured compensation on behalf of those affected by Luvox side effects or SSRI birth defects for amounts in excess of $1 million. It is important that you speak with a qualified lawyer to determine what your case may be worth.
These same lawyers are available to answer your questions, explain your legal rights and discuss the compensation available from the drug companies responsible for your child's condition. Time to file a lawsuit, however, is limited.
When dealing with your child's birth defect, your first priority is to visit their pediatrician to learn the extent of their condition, what treatment options are available, what lifestyle changes you will have to make, and what to expect in the future.
It is also very important to learn about your legal options and how the compensation from a defective drug claim can reduce the burden on your family for medical costs, pain and suffering and loss of earnings.
While nobody should file a lawsuit for monetary gain if another party was not at fault, your lawyer can explain how Salvoy Pharmaceuticals may have known that Luvox side effects put patients at risk of delivery of infants with birth defects.
It is also not fair that your family not be burdened with expenses like medical bills, loss of earnings and changes in your lifestyle caused by the effects of Luvox simply because of the negligence of a drug company.
Although Salvoy Pharmaceuticals has added warning labels to Luvox about its' dangerous side effects, they earned billions of dollars selling the drug while many people did not know of the risks it carried. The company is now facing thousands of lawsuits for the side effects from its drugs.
Before you select a lawyer or law firm for a drug injury case, make sure they are qualified to handle your type of case, have the resources to fight giant drug companies, and can commit the time necessary to get results.
Although thousands of drug injury lawsuits are filed each year, many are lost due to a lack of experience or resources. It is important to retain a lawyer who has the experience and expertise to pursue your case to its fullest potential and to maximize your results.
PaxilCenter.com works with only the most qualified defective drug litigation firms in the country.
Contact us 24 hours a day for answers to your questions about Luvox side effects and your legal options. We are available for a free, confidential evaluation of your case today. Simply fill out the form above or give us a call to speak with a qualified lawyer.

How do I get from Naivasha to Aberdare?
Where do I make all the arrangements before entering the park? Is it possible to make the arrangements on the same day of the trek?
And also, is it possible to get in the park by foot?
Aberdare National Park

You can drive. There is a road coming into the Aberdares from the West that will take you to The Ark or Aberdare Country Club.
Report Abuse
From Naivasha you can enter through Mutubio gate on the east side if you have a pre-loaded Safari Card. Otherwise you'll need to go Aberdare NP headquarters in Mweiga to purchase/load your Safari Card and enter through one of the gates on the west side. You cannot enter by foot. What trek? Le Satima? I think you'll need to make arrangements in advance and may be required to take a ranger for the hike.

Sorry I meant Mutubio gate on the WEST side and headquarters and other gates on the EAST.

Isn't is possible to get from Naivasha to Nyeri by public transport?
And if I want to hike (yes, Le Satima) how am I supposed to get in the park? -

I think you'll need to arrange some sort of private transport (from Mweiga/Nyeri if not from Naivasha).

Encarnacion Bibina Gomez Garcia
Masstricht University Medical Centre
My research interests revolve particularly around the discovery and classification of genetic mutations predisposing to haematological disorders and familial cancers. I have been contributing to the field of hereditary syndromes since 1994, and am an author on 106 scientific publications, with an average impact factor of 6,70. My work is directly translatable to the patient. My interests in the genetic counselling has directed my efforts towards the unclassified genetic variants (UVs), particularly in determining whether families with a UV in the BRCA1/2 genes have different clinical features than those with a known mutation. This has lead to the classification of a number of UVs found in the Dutch population using an easy-to-apply scoring system based on the cancer history of families, with important implications for cancer-prevention and screening strategies. I also coordinate projects to determine the influence of modifier genes on the phenotypes of hereditary cancer syndromes, including breast/ovarian cancer and Lynch syndrome. I am also conducting research aimed at understanding the biology underlying developmental abnormalities associated with hereditary cancer syndromes, using a systems biology (phenomics) approach. This has involved the demonstration of the role of ciliopathies in hereditary cancer - in particular FAP, published in 2009 in Lancet Oncology. |

2012 + 3 Words = Success
I love lists. There – I said it. Grocery lists, packing lists, to do lists; I am a bit O.C.D. about organizing my plans. So then, it should be no surprise that I am a New Year's resolution maker. I don't do it because it's the "in" thing to do or because I can't set goals any other time of year. The end of the year just seems like a finite end to a period of time that I can look back on and determine what I can and should do better – and a new year to look forward to growing, learning and setting new goals for… and making a list. Several years ago I learned of Chris Brogan's "3 Words" technique. Chris challenges people to skip resolutions, and instead, come up with 3 words that will help define their goals and experiences for the coming year. I have never participated in his challenge because "3 Words" isn't much of a list – and, again, I love lists. But this year I felt like I needed focus rather than a laundry list of "things to do"-type resolutions… and this seems like just the way to find that focus. So without further ado, here are my 3 Words for 2012: http://aprillynnescott.wordpress.com/2012/01/03/2012-3-words-success/

text: Did you believe when we won the Green Path North fight that our desert was safe, that no towers would ever march across our buttes and threaten our homes? So did we. Sadly, we were wrong. Have you seen the helicopters hovering over Pipes Canyon and Pioneertown recently and wondered what they're up to? Have you heard they've been ferrying construction materials up onto the buttes? And did you know there are four wind-measuring towers being built on Black Lava Butte and Flat Top Mesa and that two 200-foot towers are already visible on the buttes? And this is just the beginning. With BLM's permission, and without advising local residents, speculators are planning to build a forest of wind turbines on our two buttes. If they're allowed to go ahead, access roads will be constructed in Pipes Canyon, Pioneertown, and surrounding communities, fire danger will rise, property values will fall, native flora and fauna will be decimated, there will be rock blasting and noise and EMF emissions from the turbines, and the beauty and tranquility of our area will be a thing of the past. Are we going to allow this to happen after the fight we put up to defeat Green Path North? You bet we're not. Find out exactly what is happening and what YOU can do to stop it by looking at the information on this website or by contacting us.

Gov. Bill Owens today threatened to call a special legislative session to address illegal immigration after the Colorado Supreme Court shot down a proposed ballot measure because of problems with the wording. According to The Denver Channel:
Gov. Bill Owens, considering a request by Republican lawmakers, said Tuesday that he will call a special session if the Colorado Supreme Court does not reverse its decision and put on the November ballot an initiative that would deny most state services to illegal immigrants. Attorney General John Suthers also said will ask the Colorado Supreme Court to reconsider its decision. "Yesterday, our State Supreme Court ignored years of legal precedent and decided that the public should not have a say in one of the most important public policy debates of our time. In my opinion, the court's decision was inconsistent, it was inappropriate, and yes, I even believe it was arrogant," Owens said. On Monday, the state Supreme Court disqualified the proposal, saying it addressed more than one topic, a violation of the state constitution. Suthers and Owens said the court previously had accepted a similar measure.Though I won't claim any legal expertise here, I don't necessarily agree with the court's decision; from what I understand there may be some precedent for the court to have acted differently in the past, and perhaps the measure should have been allowed to continue. However, I absolutely do not think it is justified for Owens to call a special session if the Colorado Supreme Court doesn't change its ruling, and here's why: It isn't the legislature's job to clean up after failed initiative attempts. The whole idea of this subverts the point of a citizen initiative. The initiative process allows citizens to try to get a measure on the ballot through their own efforts. The legislature shouldn't be the backup plan, there to save the day if the efforts of a citizen group fail. If Owens thought the legislature should convene for a special session to address illegal immigration, he should have called the session for that reason alone (nevermind that several bills concerning illegal immigration were already discussed in the general session, several of which passed and were signed by Owens). The governor, whoever it is, shouldn't be allowed to bully the legislature into addressing an issue because a ballot measure failed. That's not the way the process is supposed to work.
Submitted by Norma Struthers (not verified) on Tue, 2006-06-13 15:34.
I also do not think it is justified for Gov.Owens to call a special session on illegal immigration if the Colorado Supreme Court doesn't change its ruling. because I resent the spending of tax money on a special session. Gov Owens is acting like a spoiled bully. And just when I had began to think he might pocess some substance.


text: IBM's Model 5150 PC, released in 1981, was a classic, perhaps the computer most responsible for launching the PC revolution. (In fact, it's one of our 25 Greatest PCs of All Time.) Sadly, however, its keyboard did not live up to that standard. This 83-key model was IBM's first, and critics hated it, complaining about its awkward layout and nonstandard design. Stung by the criticism, IBM assembled a ten-person task force to craft a new keyboard, according to David Bradley, a member of that task force and of the 5150's design team. Their resulting 101-key design, 1984's Model M, became the undisputed bellwether for the computer industry, with a layout that dominates desktops to this day. As we peek under the hood of this legend, you'll soon see why many consider the Model M to be the greatest keyboard of all time.

I'm an idiot! Distributor?msmallz 01-23-2007, 12:38 AM Ok, so here's my last post: Hi guys, I have an 86 CRX that is having problems. There have been a few times recently when starting took longer than usual because it seemed to be getting some gas, but not much at all. But after about 15 seconds it will finally get enough and start up. Then, about 2 days ago, I got in the car, started it up but it died ( this happens alot as the car won't stay running unless I give it gas after just starting up) But, then it wouldn't restart, just turn over, but didn't sound like it was getting gas. I went back the next morning when it was about 15 degrees out and it started right up. Drove it all day today, then went and got in it tonight, it started, I took off and after about 2 blocks, I could tell something was weird while shifting, it stopped getting gas and died again. I waited a few hours and it still won't start. Could it be the fuel pump? I heard something about the main relay, but don't know if the 86 CRX has the same problem or what? So, first off, I decide to take it to the shop and tell him it might be the main relay and I look like an idiot because its a carbureted engine. But, I haven't done any work on this car, paid 800 bucks for it and just didn't even pay attention. The guy says its the distributor he thinks. A couple of days goes by and he gets two wrong distributors. So he replaces the fuel filters, cap and rotor, plugs and says it should be ok. It ran fine for two days then died again. It started back up after a little while though. Odd thing is that I drove it an hour each way to work for two days and it was fine. But, it seems to be after a go to the gym, start it up when its very cold out and let it die because not giving it enough gas that it seems to die. So, does this sound like the distributor? rshottie1998 01-26-2007, 05:27 PM I would try the fuel pump. a lot of times when the fuel pump is starting to go bad it does this. the best way to tell if it is your fuel pump is to build pressure. to do this, simply turn over the key ( not all the way, but just enough for everything to come on except fully cranking it) and turn the key back towards you. do this 3 times to build pressure, and you should be able to hear the fuel pump engaging as you do this. once you have done this three times completely go ahead and crank the car to see if it cranks. a sign of the fuel pump going bad is when the car does crank, it idles real rough and sounds like it is about to cut off...do not pat the gas if this happens. just simply let the engine try to build pressure on its own and it will sound bad but that is also a sign that your fuel pump is going. i would also check the fuel pressure regulator as well.

Buddhism does not equal Communism or socialism,
A dangerous concept as the potential of tyranny and corruption by the state increases, as we pay more for less services...sound familiar?
So of course Apple sue's their competitors every time they turn around. Now Apple may have to put on it's website that Samsung did not steal it's idea, by court order. It has me wondering if tree's should sue Apple for their design it copied.
It's ironic that Steve Jobs was a Buddhist. One of the basic beliefs in Buddhism is that we don't really own anything, that everything is impermanent, and we should not get attached. Well I know "it's just business" but it really has me thinking about how ridiculous this entire concept of money and owning things really is.
Apple suing other companies for stealing their "rectangular design" has got to be the most ridiculous thing ever. A rectangle? seriously... Apple thinks they invented the design of a rectangle with rounded corners. That is really ridiculous. Who on earth couldn't think of a rectangle as a design for a phone, other than Apple? It's a basic shape that has been known about for thousands of years.
We don't own anything. It's all from some void and returns to the void, it's just a temporary illusion, and it's illusions that we cling to. All idea's all things are from the great mystery, God, the void, the wold, the universe, however you wish to conceive of it, but we don't own any of it, we just meet it, and pass it by. Even art, ideas, books, all those thoughts come from the invisible void of nothingness and although we feel attached to it, it's not really ours. We're just simply the conduit that it comes through.
So, although we live in a world that has been on the idea of attachment for so long and we can't really see it being otherwise, I do wonder what it would be like if we didn't have attachments.
I would think that attachments are necessary, as in the protective mode we have to our children for instance. That attachment is necessary for survival and it is also through attachment that we believe we experience love.
So back to business. It seems we've come full circle. Do we need attachment? Is it necessary and do we own anything?
The Meaning of Life is to Eat the Apple - Me
Wisdom comes from asking questions
Nothing really matters, love is all we need. - Madonna
I predict the weather will be unpredictable this year - Sylvia Browne
An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind - Gandhi
If it doesn't make sense, it's usually not true. - Judge Judy
Buddhism does not equal Communism or socialism,
A dangerous concept as the potential of tyranny and corruption by the state increases, as we pay more for less services...sound familiar?
Interesting question and so often asked and explored as well. From a philosophical point of view we own nothing. We come with nothing and leave with nothing as well. At a more spiritual level, one may even say that our body is not our own but a medium for the soul to travel. However, these points of view are interesting to debate and ponder on intellectually but hard to live by.
What happens when you walk out that door to work? When you need that money to do a list of thing that you need - want - desire? I'm going back to Malslow for a minute here. According to his pyramid, one needs to fully satisfy a need at one level to be able to move to another. As individuals, I think we are still stuck in the lower levels of the pyramid which reflects back on society in general. As a human race, we are struggling between physical and emotional needs. Different people have varying degrees of attachments to different things. I truly believe that when an individual or a society as a whole moves to a high plane of understanding and existence, we can then not only understand, but live these spiritual truths. Some of us have already started to bride the gap between Knowledge and current state of existence. Some of us are yet to begin but will get there eventually. Until then, these will always be questions for the hungry mind.
hard to live by because there is no utopian governance
Look at how communist China has treated buddhist monks and tibet murdering and killing others by starvation, destroying almost all buddhist temples. Notorious human rights violations and banning religious rights:
In January 1994, the PRC government increased restrictions on religious practice by foreigners in China through State Council Decrees 144 and 145. Decree 144 states that foreign nationals may bring in religious materials only "for their own use," and bans materials deemed "harmful to the public interest." The decree also prohibits evangelizing, establishing religious schools and other missionary activities. Decree 145 gives authorities substantial leeway in restricting religious activities deemed harmful to "national unity" or "social stability," and limits the practice of religion by foreign nationals to state-sanctioned places of worship.
This is what the Dalai Lama thinks of the politics:
It is ironic that most of his work has been done from his home in Sarnath, northern India, where he fled when Chinese troops entered Tibet in March 1959.
Tibet has been under Chinese Communist rule ever since.
The 66-year-old Dalai Lama said that if Tibet is not free when he dies, his reincarnation will be born in a free country elsewhere.
The political implications of this statement makes it impossible for the Chinese to have a hand in one day deciding who the next Dalai Lama will be, or for a chosen candidate of theirs to have popular support among Tibetans.
Six years ago the Chinese government seized Panchen Lama, Tibet's second-ranking religious figure and placed him into detention. China has since proclaimed another boy to be the real Panchen Lama.
This reminds me of a cause that I am passionate about... the patenting of Life. After seeing Vandana Shiva (check her out! at http://www.navdanya.org/) speak at my college, I became more aware of how corporations such as Monsanto have the audacity to patent the DNA of life itself within seeds. Within the past month, Glaxo-Smith-Klein bought the rights to the Human Genome. I don't yet understand why they need the intellectual property rights to such a worldwide. The conspiracy theorist within me thinks the worst, but I am maintaining a positive outlook.
I also feel, concerning the original question of attachment, that more and more people are realizing that STUFF and THINGS do not make you happy in the end. This is not an easy lesson to learn, but I feel that there is a great opportunity for those who are beginning to understand how to give their things to others freely (because is feels so good!). By sharing with others and expressing the way it makes you feel, it encourages them to share as well!
What a beautiful system.
Peace and Blessings,
Maybe if you stand in your nearest cemetery and contemplate your question ? none of the inhabitants have any of their earthly attachments ! 'you cant take it with you is a saying usually referring to money but it refers to all the material things of this world. From a Shamanistic point of view life is a series of little deaths teaching us (or at least giving us the opportunity to learn) to prepare for the big one, these little deaths are experienced as endings and partings and we either accept and learn and grow or resist and learn and leave the growth for another day or another lifetime, I look at death and see all that I am surrounded by as being left behind and so i invite that knowing into my Now which allows me to be blissfully unattached to anything and everything, this does not mean that I do not use and enjoy what comes and goes in my life, no matter how close any of this gets to me I know we it is only time shared and not ownership or permanent. If this involves picking up the pieces and starting over again so be it and I am equally unattached to the new illusion.

NefAZ (Neftekamsk Automobile)(НЕФАЗ) is a Russian manufacturer of trucks, buses, farm equipment and combine harvesters. They are the largest automotive manufacturer utilizing the Kamaz chassis. Founded in 1977 in Neftekamsk, Republic of Bashkortostan, Russia, NefAZ first assembled Kamaz trucks. Buses were added in 2000, and combine harvesters in 2009.[1]
KAMAZ (KAMA3) owns about 50% of NefAZ.[2] Some of the buses are licensed from VDL Groep and carry the VDL-NefAZ brand.,[3] while others use Daimler-NefAZ or NefAZ as the branding. Trucks are built using both the NefAZ and Kamaz brand.
Combine harvesters were added to the mix in 2009 with a tie-up with AGCO and the Challenger brand, with NefAZ assembling CKD (Completely Knocked Down) harvesters from the Italian Laverda harvester plant. In future phases, more of the parts will be sourced locally, until instead of using CKDs, NefAZ is building the complete harvesters, and building their own CKDs to send elsewhere for assembly. The harvesters are built in both the Cat-yellow and a red livery, and carry the name AGCO-NEFAZ Challenger on the side.[4]

text: Researcher posts on Zuckerberg's Facebook wall to expose bug Technology 19 August 13 by Katie Collins Tweet Facebook/Screenshot An information security expert from Palestine claims he was left with no choice but to post details of a Facebook bug he had discovered on Mark Zuckerberg's wall, after Facebook security staff ignored his warnings.The flaw, which allows users to post on anyone's wall, whether or not they are Facebook friends was discovered by Khalil Shreateh from Palestine, who has outlined his attempts to alert Facebook to the bug on his blog.Facebook has a system called Whitehat through which experts who stumble upon security vulnerabilities can report them to the social network. Security flaws that are successfully identified are rewarded with a minimum of $500. It is through Whitehat that Shreateh first tried to contact Facebook. After several attempts to contact the security team, he finally got a reply stating: "I am sorry this is not a bug."Shreateh's next step was to post on Mark Zuckerberg's wall, explaining his attempts to get in touch with Facebook, and at the same time proving the bug's existence. He was almost immediately contacted by one of Facebook's security engineers asking him to send full details of the exploit, but a few minutes later had his account disabled altogether.His account reactivated shortly after and he received a message from Facebook saying it had been a precautionary measure as they hadn't fully understood what had happened. It also stated that the report Shreateh had submitted to Whitehat had not included enough technical information for security engineers to be able to reproduce the issue and take action.Facebook has refused to pay Shreateh for exposing the bug, as it says he violated its terms of service, which must be a huge disappointment. In June 2013 a British man was awarded $20,000 (£13,000) for reporting a problem with Facebook's text message verification system, which allowed him to fool it into sending him a code for an account that wasn't his. He is listed, along with others who have made "responsible disclosures" to the social network in its hall of fame. Nearly all big sites and services -- including Microsoft, Google, PayPal and Mozilla -- have so-called "bug bounty'" programmes, which reward people who discover vulnerabilities. Many offer financial compensation, others offer some kind of gift (usually a T-shirt) and some merely offer recognition in a hall of fame. Google has recently increased the bounty for reporting bugs relating to its Chrome browser to $5,000 (£3,200).
