Nice little hotel directly in the center of the Old Town Hanoi. Ideal location for exploring the city, the nightlife and the pure atmosphere of Hanoi. Rooms are nice with big enough ensuite bathrooms. Furniture and mattresses are old and a bit run-down. The rooms to the front get the whole traffic noise from the street. Bring ear plugs! All in all good value for your money. The best thing is the ideal location in the heart of the city!

- Great Jacket Review by Sean
Quality Price Value This is one of the best jackets I think for the money in the Arc'teryx line of clothing. Lightweight, breathable and a sturdy material that is sure to serve you well in many climates and under hard duty use. Highly Recommend

- Good quality but little expensive Review by Ray
Price Value Quality Ok, if there is no 20% off regular price, i may think more before i place the order. But the cloth looks pretty good and i feel well when i run or hiking. It is a breathable jacket!
(Posted on 6/15/13)
- Well made, but has no water repellency! Review by cubix
Price Value Quality Overall the Salvador model quality is very high however the DWR coating is virtually non existant. I discovered it when I ran it in light rain and it soaked through within 20 minutes. Later I tested it with some water drops - they soak in immediately in most areas. I'm verry dissapointed in the performance. If they can't control the quality they should stick to CANADA manufacturing.
(Posted on 2/3/13)
- Not bad. Review by DAE SEON

MS Society – Simon looks for your support
Thursday, April 26th, 2012Just a quick heads-up to the efforts of Simon Lewis, corporate solicitor at Brabners, who is running the Greater Manchester Marathon for the MS Society.
Simon explains why he is going through this pain (watch his efforts in the last 500m at the Berlin Marathon) here:
"One of my best friends was diagnosed with MS 3 years ago and our only hope is that developments in the treatment of MS come to fruition before her inevitable deterioration. Thinking of her and her determination to live a normal life with her husband and 2 children will help me though the pain on Sunday."
Anyone that would like to support Simon and the charity can do so here.

Most of my everything .. has Marcasite. This is "Okay" I almost returned, but for the price, I kept it. It does not sparkle like "Marcasite" does. Very dull shine .. but again, for the price ... it's okay. I wouldn't wear on special occasion but more "Everyday" wear.
Very cute! cant wait to wear them. will go nice with a black dress
These are even more beautiful in person. I love silver marcasite and these ear rings are just awesome. I also got the matching necklace. The whole set is gorgeous. I whole-heartedly recommend it!
I love it!!! So beautiful and chic.The earrings are a little bit more smaller than I expected. Good price and the delivery was fast.
I purchased these earrings because the ones in department stars that were similar were too expensive. These are beautiful. They are good quality and sprakle beautifully. I have worn them twice and got compliments both times. Once again, delivery was great and timely.
These are lovely with a lot of style. Good quality setting, large but not too heavy. The marcasites sparkle nicely. They hang well below the ear and are dramatic just the way my daughter likes her earrings. I'm giving them to her for Christmas and I'm sure she'll love them and enjoy wearing them for special occasions.
looks good on and matches every thing else that i bought
The only reason this product got 4 stars is because I would have preferred an omega back on these earrings. Otherwise, this is a good quality product for the value. I'm sure I'll be ordering the matching necklace.
I Also have the necklace. Work well with my black dress. You cant go wrong with these. Gorgeous!!
These are gorgeous. The stones shine nicely and the size is perfect.

The lewd behavior that New York mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner engaged in suggests he is struggling with more than bad behavior and could be dealing with a variety of issues driving his problematic sexual behavior, experts said.
But doctors, clinical psychologists and sex therapists differ on the role of biology, as well as issues such as anxiety, depression and insecurity.
Fred Berlin, director of the Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit at Johns Hopkins Hospital, said many of his patients exhibit behavior similar to Weiner's, although he and other experts cautioned that they could not speak to the former congressman's specific situation.
"It's driven behavior," said Berlin, a psychiatrist who has been treating patients for more than 30 years. "People are feeling they are pushed to act a certain way even though their intellect and their conscience may be telling them otherwise."
Berlin said he has treated patients with problematic sexual behavior from all backgrounds and levels of society. People with this type of behavior are energized by a powerful biological force, he said. Other factors, such as anxiety or depression, may play a role.
"But fundamentally, there is a driver there that they are not resisting for whatever reason," he said. "It really is about sex."
He likened it to someone who is going on a diet to lose weight. That person may be convinced they want to stop overeating when they're not hungry, he said. But when they get hungry, they may not be able to stop themselves and end up gorging. The person is genuinely sorry afterward, he said, and then the cycle repeats.
In 2011, Weiner resigned from Congress after he admitted to sending lewd pictures of himself to young women. On Tuesday, he acknowledged that under the pseudonym "Carlos Danger," he again sent graphically explicit texts and images to young women more than a year after stepping down from political life.
Berlin and others said that in the past five to six years, they have seen a significant increase in the number of patients with problematic sexual behavior related to the Internet, including inappropriate chatting, accessing inappropriate images and engaging in virtual relationships.
In addition to making it easier for people to say and do things they might not otherwise, the Internet has become a delivery system through which someone can get access to an unlimited number of partners and sexual fantasies, said Michael Radkowsky, a District of Columbia psychologist who treats couples and individuals with sexual issues. The human brain is wired to look for sex and sexual partners, he said.
"Our brains have all these receptors looking for sex, and there's the Internet providing all sorts of opportunities for sex. Wham, plugs right in."
Experts disagree on whether this type of behavior should be considered an addiction.
The American Psychiatric Association considered including "hypersexual disorder" in its most recent edition of the guidebook that psychiatrists and other mental health clinicians use to diagnose mental disorders.
Among the symptoms associated with that behavior, according to preliminary criteria, are recurrent and intense sexual fantasies, sexual urges or sexual behaviors over a period of at least six months that interfere with other important activities; are in response to stressful life events; or are undertaken while disregarding risk for physical or emotional harm to self and others.
The issue sparked huge controversy, experts said, and ultimately, the behavior was not included in the updated Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM-5.
David Kupfer, chair of the DSM-5 task force, said the disorder may interfere with a person's life, "but the empirical evidence on the condition was not strong enough to support including it in DSM at this time."
A recent study from the University of California at Los Angeles questioned the validity of sex being addictive. Past research has shown that when addicts view pictures of their drug of choice, their brain activity spikes. Psychiatrist Nicole Prause thought she might see the same type of response in possible sex addicts when viewing images of people having sex - but she didn't.
Rather than an addiction, hypersexuality could mean possessing a high libido coupled with other factors such as impulsivity, said Prause.
Whatever it's called, experts also disagree on other issues involved in the behavior.
"With men like Anthony Weiner, it's rarely about the sexual component. There are usually other issues, like grandiosity - thinking that rules don't apply - or certain personality characteristics," said Rachel Needle, a West Palm Beach, Fla. clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist of the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists.
To treat people like Weiner, one also needs to understand what role the sexual behavior is playing, she said. "What is it helping him with controlling anxiety? Or feeling not good about himself?"
Thinking that rules don't apply to them is a common personality characteristic of people in power, not just in politics, but also in sports, she said, citing the problems of golf star Tiger Woods, who apologized for cheating on his wife in 2010 after weeks of tabloid reports of marital infidelity with as many as a dozen women.
Hani Miletski, a Bethesda, Md. sex therapist, agrees that other issues besides sex are often involved.
"It never happens in a vacuum. There are always other things going on," she said.

Comments On Sep 08, 2013:i have these gaurds on my wife and kids bikes since they tend not to crash as hard. overall i have had great results. they seem to stay in place on the bar and give just the right amount of protection. My issue is with the mounting hardware. It is kind of chincy. Some cast aluminum, so if you crank down on the anchor screws on the end plugs they can crack and break. Ask me how i know??!!
Additional Comments On Oct 28, 2013:Update: not sure if I want to go with these again. My teenage son whiskey throttled into a tree and the impact fell directly on the throttle side hand guard. the Hand guard snapped and he broke his wrist. I am not sure an Aluminum backed unit would have helped to prevent the injury in this instance? I think the twisting of the bars is more to blame for the wrist break?. Interestingly he complained of no knuckle or finger pain which is what I would expect given the nature of the direct frontal impact. So I guess they did their job? Choose according to skill level and how hard the crashes are.. ;-)

Comments On May 22, 2013:Not sure how they would hold up on full size bikes, but they are a life-saver on the mini-bikes and keep the briars off when riding the quad. GREAT value for the $$. On the mini-bikes they have taken some HARD hits without breaking, they will twist on the bar, but no broken or bent levers so far! Install is a bit of a pain or they would have had 5 stars.

Comments On May 03, 2011:I've put these handguards on multiple dirtbikes. They always wear very long & out of probably 10 sets, I've only had 1 break. I've always used these on standard size bars. The install is pretty easy, but depending on your bike & whats on your bars, you may have to do a little pushing & shoving to get everything to line up & screw snuggly into place. I haven't found a bike yet that these will NOT go on. Good product & I would; scratch that, I HAVE recommended these guards to other riders many times.

Comments On Jul 05, 2010:Great price, they take mild hits okay. A good crash and they will break.

Comments On Jul 06, 2009:Great for the $. I've had three sets on 3 different bikes. WAY less expensive than the others and have worked well for me. Some fitment issues since they aren't machine specific. Had to do some cutting to fit around the master cylinder and controls on a couple of bikes. Cheap insurance in a crash. Haven't broken a lever yet.

Comments On Dec 04, 2008:My only issue is the clamps you have to "spread to get these to fit on the bars. These work on Polaris scrambler, trail blazer and trail boss atv's up to 2006 then they changed the Brake Master cylinder. I got them to work on my wife's 2008 Trail Blazer 330 but had to make an extension mount for the Master Cylinder side. They look great.

Comments On Dec 16, 2007:Switching from MotoX to woods riding and these work just fine and look good. Install was easy and they come with hardware for both 7/8" and 1 1/8" fat bars. Some of the other guards want the price of the whole Maier setup for just the hardware.
The plastics seems tough but I have not been down hard on them yet. They have held up just fine for the occasional run in with a tree though.
Additional Comments On Feb 04, 2008:I'm actually upgrading my review to a 5 star. For the price you just can't beat these. Been using them for almost a year and they have held up great. The plastic is super durable. I had to modify the brake side some to get it to go around the cable and it took a high speed air grinder and a metal bit to chew through that stuff.
Only drawback I have seen is the bar mounts are a one piece split design so you may scratch your bars if you don't remove the grips and slide them on.

Lotus Cafe comes through - big time!
We did not want to hit the Ellsworth area, so we figured we'd walk to Georgia and head south. On the way to Avenue we did notice that Thai Market was open. So this was good, just in case other places were shuttered we knew we could do TM if necessary.
As we walked south on Georgia, we first saw La Bamba was closed. That was OK, we aren't big fans. Next up, Olazzo and Newcaro - but they typically don't do lunch, so as expected they were shut tight. In addition, the awning had fallen down from Newcaro and a sign in the window stated they'd be closed for a bit while snow-related renovations were completed. Not sure how long this will take. In addition, I couldn't make a direct link to the restaurant's website here on the blog. When I tried to pull up their site, it says "account for nicarorestaurant.com has been suspended." Maybe someone more tech savvy than me can explain. Are they just behind on paying the hosting service?
OK, what's next? Abyssinia - closed - don't like Ethiopian food too much anyway. Big Greek Cafe - closed? Now wait a minute. We thought they'd be busting out the falafel. But no. We kept walking. Hook & Ladder, Pacci's? Well, you know the answer to that. We can't really complain they were closed since they have yet to officially open. But Pacci's is coming along nicely. I'm feeling good for a spring opening. Next, Taste of Jerusalem - closed. We didn't peek around the corner for Vicino, but we did see Jackie's was closed - again, no real surprise since they usually don't open till 5:00.
All right, with fingers crossed we approached Kim Than (or as it is now known, the Lotus Cafe). Open! And with a crowd. Why not? No one else is serving. So we were ready to chow down. We started with some crispy veggie spring rolls (well I started with a big boy Fischer - tasty). As usual, the rolls were very good. The missus then moved on to the Pho with tofu and I did the vermicelli noodle salad dish.
The pho comes loaded with veggies (carrots, jalapenos, mushrooms, onions, broccoli, bean sprouts and cabbage) that accompany the noodles, cilantro, tofu, and a wonderful broth.
My vermicelli had lettuce, tofu, shrimp, peanuts, another spring roll and that killer fish sauce I love. Mmmm. Throw in a hearty amount of rooster sauce and I was in business.
Needless to say, we left Lotus Cafe stuffed to the gills and ready to head home for an afternoon siesta - thanks mother nature. If you haven't been to Lotus lately, or yet to give it a try, check 'em out. While the decor is not the greatest and the atmosphere is lacking, the food is really good and the prices are very reasonable. I am certainly glad we have them in the hood.

If you had hit Ellsworth you could have joined me and the girls for a disasterous meal at McGintys. I need to try Lotus Cafe - this is such pho weather.

Mandalay was doing boffo business last night. I guess we all felt like finally getting out of the house for some grub.
SoCo, do you know what's up with the Roger Miller restaurant? While at Mandalay, I saw that Roger Miller's sign was gone. Not that I regret it too much, because even though I liked the food there, I hated the service and eternally long waits for the meal. Still, if RM is gone, that leaves a restaurant space for a new owner.
Methinks DTSS could seriously use another Italian restaurant right there. - February 14, 2010 at 12:09 PM

This gives a great arguement for more European style/village stye development -- Where the owners and/or employees live in affordable housing above the local businesses - as is the case with Lotus Cafe and why they could remain open.

PHOENIX - After 25 years, organizers of the annual Gardener's World Poinsettia Festival are calling it quits.
The Arizona Republic reports the festival is in its final weekend at the nursery in south Phoenix. Organizers say they will douse the Christmas lights permanently after Sunday's closing.
Kari Petterson is the daughter of Gardener's World founders and owners Gary and Sharon Petterson. She says poinsettia sales have dropped off and costs have increased, making the festival commercially unviable.
The nursery grows thousands of transplanted cutting into full plants for sale to visitors and businesses. It started the festival to show off the flowers, and the event eventually became a holiday tradition for thousands of families.

Nestled between mountains on the eastern shores of jewel-like Lago Lácar, the relaxing resort of SAN MARTÍN DE LOS ANDES is an excellent base for exploring much of Parque Nacional Lanín. The northern terminus of the famous Ruta de los Siete Lagos, San Martín is Neuquén Province's most-visited destination by far (easily outdoing Villa La Angostura, and the capital) and gets very busy indeed in the high mid-summer and mid-winter seasons.
The southern belle of Argentine towns, it consists of chalets and generally low-key architecture set in a sheltered valley at the eastern end of Lago Lácar. There's a sandy, if often windy, beach on the lake's shores, and in spring, the introduced broom (retama) daubs the scenery on the approach roads a sunny yellow. Expansion has been rapid, but – with the exception of the hideous derelict Hotel Sol de Los Andes that overlooks town – by no means as uncontrolled. Whereas the larger rival resort of Bariloche caters to the young party crowd, San Martín attracts a more sedate type of small-town tourism, aimed at families and professionals rather than students and backpackers. El Trabún (meaning the "Union of the Peoples") is the main annual festival, held in early December on the Plaza San Martín. Local and Chilean musicians hold concerts (predominantly folklore), and mighty bonfires are lit at the corners of the square to prepare delicious asados of lamb and goat.

It also comes with or without D-rings, and with or without a swing-away tire carrier capable of carrying up to a 36" tall tire.

The SRC Classic is for the minimalist that wants protection for the rear of their Jeep without sacrificing rock crawling ability. The protection comes from the thick 1/4" steel plate construction that guards the tail end, with an angled corner design that provides maximum ground clearance and allows for proper approach angles when rock crawling. The bumper comes with a built-in Class III tow rated 2" receiver hitch and it's available with or without D-rings and with or without a swing-away tire carrier.
The tire carrier is able to carry up to a 36" tall tire, yet swing away easily for access to the tailgate. It includes a greasable zerk fitting to enable pivot lubrication, and keep the hinge clean and smooth for many years of trouble-free use. A heavy-duty latch mechanism keeps the carrier closed and your tire secure when off-roading. The 3-point mounting system supports over-sized tires. The bumper can also be purchased set-up for the tire carrier but without the carrier, and the tire carrier can also be purchased separately.
For the best appearance and long-term durability, the bumper is acid dipped to remove impurities, a special "E-Coat" is applied inside and out, and finally a dual stage textured black powder coat finish is applied. Designed to be a direct bolt-on installation, mounting does require some minor drilling. The SRC Classic Rear Bumper is covered by a 5-year limited warranty against finish defects and a Smittybilt Advantage limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Note: Always check the towing specifications for your specific vehicle before attempting to tow anything. The vehicle's towing capability ultimately determines what you are able to tow, not the hitch rating.

What are treatments for hemophilia?
Comment on this
The mainstay of treatment is replacement of the blood clotting factors. Clotting factor concentrates can be purified from human donor blood or made in the laboratory using methods that do not use donor blood. This type of therapy is known as replacement therapy. Clotting factor replacement therapy is carried out by infusing the clotting factor concentrates into a vein, much like a blood transfusion. This type of therapy can be administered at home with proper instruction and training. Depending upon the severity of the condition, replacement therapy may be carried out on an as-needed basis (called demand therapy) or on a regular basis to prevent bleeding episodes (known as prophylactic therapy). People who have mild cases of hemophilia A are sometimes treated with the drug desmopressin, also known as DDAVP. This drug stimulates release of more clotting factor by the body. It is administered either slowly through the intravenous route (IV) or occasionally, in nasal spray form. Pain relievers may be prescribed for symptom relief, but pain relievers other than aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (such as naproxen, ibuprofen) must be used, since these types of drugs further inhibit the blood's ability to clot. Acetaminophen (Tylenol and others) is often given for pain relief. What are complications of treatment?Patient CommentsViewers share their comments

During last week's Q & A debate between Cardinal George Pell and Richard Dawkins, it was interesting that both men had perspectives on Nazism that were at once opposed and yet entirely congruent. Pell argued that Nazism and Stalinism were the "two great atheist movements of the last century." Dawkins responded that while Stalin was an atheist, Hitler was not. However, they both agreed that Hitler represented the "personification of social Darwinism" (Pell) or that certain of what he tried to achieve arose "out of Darwinian natural selection" (Dawkins).
Part of this to and fro was certainly the kind of argument that often arises in contemporary debates, often through a process one could think of as Nazification: one disputant involved in a debate on any given topic attempts to associate their opponent's views with the Nazis.

Posted: Feb 3, 2013 6:56 PM by Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama says the Boy Scouts of America should open its membership to gays and lesbians when its national executive board discusses the issue this week.
Obama praised the scouts as "a great institution" that promotes young people, giving them lifelong leadership training and opportunities. During a pre-Super Bowl interview on CBS, he said "no one should be barred from that."
The Boy Scouts announced last week it was considering replacing its longstanding ban on gays with a policy to let troop sponsors make their own decision on the issue.
The White House said last summer during the presidential campaign that Obama he opposed the Scouts' policy of excluding gays as members.
Gay rights activists praised last week's announcement, while some conservative church groups expressed alarm.

Nous Reviendrons Immortels
Originally intended to cap off a short mini-series of reviews that spotlighted the ever blooming French black metal scene, Aldaaron's Nous Reviendrons Immortels has thrown me for a bit of a loop over the past couple months while trying to analyze it, mainly due to the fact that this Grenoble four-piece doesn't exhibit many traits which are typically connected to bands from the region. Bypassing the neurotic/psychotic aspects frequently associated with acts from France, Aldaaron leans more toward the pagan side of things, indulging themselves in subject matter such as the powers of nature, mythological fantasy themes and sweepingly epic yet focused soundscapes that avoids bowing to recent trends of post-whatever genre bending.
Actually, this is one of the purest black metal releases I've heard in quite some time from that country, and there is a palpable Dissection/Windir/Immortal feel to the vast majority of this disc. The atmosphere is chilly, but not entirely frigid, and is never overwhelming in either aggression or mood. Icy tremolo in tracks such as "Seigneur De L'hiver" recalls the less abrasive forward-thinking vibes found on Damned In Black where the riff is king, and nihilistic accoutrements lay slyly just beneath the surface. The guitars feature a sharp, sometimes piercing tone that isn't hindered by an overuse of treble which makes for a very comfortable yet still intense listen. "Nirnaeth Arnoediad Part 1" is faithfully Norwegian in spirit by enriching events with smoother, extremely airy and clean guitar interludes which build into sorrowful, depressive spurts of rage supported by an exceptional percussive depth provided by Morkk's tight and somewhat technical approach to drumming.
What stands out most while blasting "Nimaeth Arnoediad Part 2" is how incredibly professional and experienced Aldaaron sounds, belying the fact that this is their full-length debut with very little cross pollination with dozens of other projects by the collective band members. The word 'derivative' doesn't pop into my head in the slightest even though their range of influences is crystal clear, and this is partly due to vocalist Ioldar's diverging into cleanly spoken and occasionally melodic chanting which compliments the less rambunctious parts of the album unpredictably. His regulation black metal screams are more commonplace in comparison, but even then his lines are delivered with a fierce passion and fire that maintains a solid level of quality throughout. Tunes like "Royaume" boldly march and chug with a robust pagan stomp like warriors riding into battle upon furious steeds, creating a classically warlike vibe that segues into clean bass guitar (more of this, please) and fluttering speed-picking, racing along with determination and purpose all the while.
Solid, and at times bordering on spectacular (closing number "Propheties" is fantastic), Nous Reviendrons Immortels is more than just promising, it's downright badass. By highlighting the 'metal' in black metal, Aldaaron have already shown themselves to be masters of their craft, resulting in an album that sounds much more mature and seasoned than what you might expect from such a relatively young project. They've really hit the ground running, and I can only imagine what will happen once they truly find their footing. Impressive.

If you saw this name in a book...
Would you know how to pronounce it? She's only a minor character, in it for less than a chapter, but as I'm getting close to submission with this one I'm being a little wary of the name. In the UK it's pretty popular, but should the book get picked up I'm conscious of the fact I could have readers from absolutely anywhere, thanks to Kindle making books even more universal than before.
The name: Niamh.
It just feels like it suits her perfectly, but I'm concerned about whether I'll get readers going 'Nee-amh? What sort of name is that?' when she's mentioned.

I wouldn't worry about it. Most of the people I know wouldn't pronounce it correctly, but she's in your book for less than a chapter, so it's not a big deal. If you ever do have a character with a name that's not easily pronounced, you can take care of that with mentioning it. Have the character vent about their name, or someone stumble over it and they correct them.

being from the USA, i would think it was pronounced Nee-um, but since it is a book saying it isnt as important as reconizing the letters, and since she's a minor character it isn't much of a problem. Good luck!
Right Now I would name them...

Is anyone else getting a little fed up? I can't understand why most of the big-name Bordeaux châteaus have not released their prices for 2005 futures, or en primeur.

I haven't really seen all that many great red wines from Sicily. Sure I have given plenty of 90- and 91-point scores to wines from the island in recent years, but I am still waiting to score some wines in the mid to high 90s – real classic quality.

"When Kerry Jang got married 18 years ago, his wedding guests dined on shark fin soup, a traditional Chinese delicacy his family served for generations to mark special occasions.
Now, the Vancouver city councillor is spearheading efforts to remove the pricey item from restaurant menus and banquets.
Jang is proposing that Vancouver and its neighbouring municipalities, Richmond and Burnaby, simultaneously introduce a shark fin ban, joining Canadian cities like Toronto and Nainamo, B.C., and several U.S. states, including California, Oregon and Hawaii."

Men's Tennis - University of Dubuque
Date: | April 25, 2012 |
Results: | 6-3 |
Location: | Home |
Time and time again this season the doubles matches have proved to be important for the Luther men's tennis team and this match was no different as the Norse won two of the three doubles matches on the way to a 6-3 win over Dubuque. Luther improves to 20-5 overall and 7-0 in the IIAC with the victory.
Tyler Zinnecker and Tyler Van Heest dispatched Shawn Iben and Dishon Deering (8-0) at No. 3 doubles to give Luther an early 1-0 edge. Nick Mozena and James Ayer broke in the first game of the match and then added a second break near the end, winning (8-4) against Paul Roberts and Demetrious Johnson at No. 2. Dubuque's Nick Garcia and Andrew Sheedy won by an (8-5) score over Luther's Scott Sundstrom and Ramesh Karki in a battle or ranked opponents.
Quinn Foley (No. 5) and Joe LaFountaine (No. 6) also took to the courts during the doubles action and both rolled to straight set wins to put the Norse ahead, 4-1. Foley beat Nikolay Gospidinov (6-2, 6-2) while LaFountaine was a (6-2, 6-1) winner over Mike Braden. Mozena clinched the match with a (6-0, 6-0) win against Johnson at No. 3, and Karki cruised to a (6-1, 6-0) victory over Roberts at No. 2. Dubuque won at No. 1 and No. 4 to account for the final two points of the match.

The counter-revolution of science: studies on the abuse of reason, Volume 417Early in the last century the successes of science led a group of French thinkers to apply the principles of science to the study of society. These thinkers purported to have discovered the supposed "laws" of society & concluded that an elite of social scientists should assume direct control of social life. The Counter-Revolution of Science is Nobel Laureate Friedrich Hayek's forceful attack on this abuse of reason. |
