Content Insider #310 - Hunters
I like lawyers as people just not as lawyers. Yes, there are a lot of them that I respect as lawyers...someone's gotta do that job. But there are those who really bother me and that's because they buy up (accumulate) or work for the guy who busys and then hunt around for companies to blackmail, threatenor sue if they don't pay for use of their questionable patents. There has to be some way to separate the wheat from the chaff, the frivilous/worthless lawsuits from the honest patents based on hard, sweaty creative efforts that deserve protection.

RedRay 4K Cinema Player Video
RED, the makers of the high end digital camera manufacturers that have been taking the film world by storm over the past several years have announced a media device capable of actually taking advantage of the absurd 4K resolution that their cameras provide. For those unfamiliar, 4K resolution is equivalent four 1080p displays. 4K capable TV's and Projectors have slowly made their way to market, but unfortunately for those early adopters, there aren't many ways to actually get content onto that TV, seeing as Blu-Ray only supports a maximum resolution of 1080p anyway. This is where the RedRay Cinema Player comes in, providing super-hi def content to your TV. The device supports USB, has an SD card for getting content on there, and packs a solid 1 TeraByte hard drive inside to store all that video.

A Look Inside Free Birds 3D Production
It was no simple "turkey trot" for the Free Birds crew that was tasked with bringing feathered characters to life for the big screen. First and foremost, the challenge was to make turkeys - which are not typically considered the most attractive of birds -- look appealing. Writer/director Jimmy Hayward contends, "It was important for the audience to care about our turkeys and believe that they could actually be thrown into a big sci-fi adventure. But first we had to make sure the audience would want to look at them for the length of a feature film."

December 11, 2013
FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Polly Judd is skeptical of talk that her famous granddaughter, actress Ashley Judd, might run for U.S. Senate in Kentucky as a Democratic challenger to Republican Leader Mitch McConnell.
The 85-year-old grandmother of Ashley and singer Wynonna Judd, said she doesn't think there's any possibility for such a match-up.
Polly Judd, a political activist in Ashland where she once served on the city commission, also is complimentary of McConnell, saying he has done more for her hometown than anyone else.
Ashley Judd, who has starred in such movies as "Kiss the Girls," ''Double Jeopardy," ''Where the Heart Is," and "High Crimes," hasn't ruled out a Senate run.
The former Kentuckian said in a statement earlier this month that she's "very honored" to be mentioned as a potential candidate.

Dry Rub Ribs
Shane and I actually watched an episode of Dave Lieberman together and saw him make these dry rub ribs. Shane immediately asked me to make them at our house. Last night, I had the perfect opportunity to do that. Every year around this time Shane and his friends get together and everyone brings a different meat concoction. Sometimes they're "normal" meats like ribs and other times they're very unique (for example, in year's past, meat ice cream has been made and this year there was chocolate covered bacon).
Anyway, I figured I would try making the ribs for this year's gathering. Everyone raved about these ribs, including Shane! They were super simple to make though since they take over 2 hours to cook, they're not a quick meal. I prefer sweeter flavors versus spicy flavors and even I liked these. I only cooked mine for 2 hours as other people were waiting to use the oven, but I think they would have been even better had I left them in for another 30 minutes.
Dry Rub Ribs
from Dave Lieberman, FoodNetwork.com
2 pounds baby back ribs
For the rub:
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dry oregano
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
25 grinds fresh black pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Preheat over to 300 degrees F. Mix the rub ingredients together well in a small bowl.
Remove the membrane from the bone side of the ribs, then rub the vegetable oil onto the ribs. Pour the rub over the ribs and work the rub fully and evenly into the ribs. Spread the ribs out evenly on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Bake until tender and juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
1 comment:
Oh my goodness. These ribs are killer! And quick to prepare. Cooking takes a while- I let mine cook 3 hrs. Very easy meal and so simple. We had potato salad and viola!!!

Alternate Appellations: The names that might have been
This week, Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel talks about the almost-names that might have been if circumstances were just a little bit different.
Do you ever imagine an alternate life? Specifically, what you might have been named, or what you might have named your children if your life was just slightly different?
My husband's taste in given names is buckets more conservative than mine. From the color of their eyes to the shape of their toes, I cannot imagine our children even a scintilla changed. And yet imagine just one twist in life's journey, and all of a sudden they're Dexter and Domino instead of Alex and Clio.
The given name that I so actively disliked as a child was chosen, in large part, because of a clumsy surname, poorly exported into English without harmonizing the improbable consonant clusters. What if my parents had decided to overlook the glaring limitations of a let-me-spell-it-for-you last name? Or what if my ancestors had blanded out their surname to something that accommodated any number of appellations?

I really wasn't planning to stay up until midnight Monday. I'd been watching the countdown clock to government shutdown earlier in the evening, and thinking about the many times I watched other countdowns on television. Those were when the United States first started rocketing astronauts into space.
I was far more anxious watching those rocket ships than I was last night. After all, this was early in the space program and each launch was anything but routine. (Of course that was before the Challenger disaster.)
But even with the first launch of Allen Shepherd's sub-orbital flight in 1961, I had so much confidence in NASA that I wasn't all that worried. When's the last time Americans had that much confidence in a government agency?
When I woke up at 11:30 last night. Rather than go back to sleep, I was curious. I was already thinking about writing about this. I ifgured I might as well turn on the TV. I wanted see how the first chapter of this national drama was going to end.
I set the timer on the TV to shut of in a half hour, closed my eyes, and as I was drifting off to sleep I heard that the government had indeed shut down.
I wasn't particularly anxious about the consequenses.
I was more nervous during the early NASA launches when a familiar astronaut's life was at stake.
I hate to admit that I am more intrigued about how this shutdown will impact the country than I am concerned.
I marvel at how this Republican exercise reminds me of the "Alice in Wonderland" Mad Hatter's tea party. It's almost impossible to believe that our country is being led by the Wonderland Tea Party, rather than by those trying to emulate our own Boston Tea Party patriots. I feel like Alice did. Who are these crazy people?
The Dormouse had closed its eyes by this time, and was going off into a doze; but, on being pinched by the Hatter, it woke up again with a little shriek, and went on: `--that begins with an M, such as mouse-traps, and the moon, and memory, and muchness-- you know you say things are "much of a muchness"--did you ever see such a thing as a drawing of a muchness?'
`Really, now you ask me,' said Alice, very much confused, `I don't think--'
`Then you shouldn't talk,' said the Hatter.
This piece of rudeness was more than Alice could bear: she got up in great disgust, and walked off; the Dormouse fell asleep instantly, and neither of the others took the least notice of her going, though she looked back once or twice, half hoping that they would call after her: the last time she saw them, they were trying to put the Dormouse into the teapot.
`At any rate I'll never go THERE again!' said Alice as she picked her way through the wood. `It's the stupidest tea-party I ever was at in all my life!'
Maybe I should be more worried.
If Senator Ted Cruz, the Queen of Hearts in this story, digs in the heels of his $1,800 Lucchese Classics black cherry full quill ostrich boots,* the ending of this story could end with him malevolently shouting "off with all our heads" as his minions of serious-faced tea partiers stand in the background on the Capitol steps.
After all as the actual pain of goverment shutdown is felt among us common folks, these members of the House are like the timid Dormouse. They won't do a thing without Queen Cruz's imprimatur.
As much as it feels like a bad dream, all these politicians won't eventually turn into playing cards and fly helter skelter into the air.
We won't wake up and find it was all a bad dream in a totally insane land of Tea Party polictics.
*A real footnote: Cruz Shoes
I don't really know what brand of shoes millionaire Cruz wears. I do know from numerous references and the photo below that he favors a pair of black ostrich skin cowboy boots. Someone should ask this man of the people what brand and variety of boots he wears, Custom made boots can fetch $12,000.
I know he wore comfortable running shoes during his 21 hour speechathon.
I also know that John McCain favors $520 imported Italian Ferragamo "Pregiato Moccasins" loafers. My assumption is that Cruz wouldn't want to be outdone by McCain. McCain doesn't wear Dockers from Penny's, and Cruz doesn't wear $75 real cowboy boots from Boot Barn.

Louise Berry, who has served as Director of Darien Library for 34 years, announced today she will retire on February 28,2014.
"I have cherished every day of my time here in Darien and as Director of the Library. No one could ever hope to be in such a welcoming and supportive community -- I have made many friends, and I work with an incredible staff and Board. Next year I will complete my thirty-fifth year, and that's the right time to pass my responsibilities on to other hands."
Bruce Ferguson, President of the Library's Board of Trustees, said the Board accepted her decision reluctantly but understood the reasons for her decision. "Louise has been the heart and soul of this Library for so many years that it is difficult to think of her not as Director, but she has built such a strong staff that we are sure that the values, standards and expectations she has set for extraordinary service to the community are now the values, standards and expectations of every member of this Library."
Louise Parker Berry grew up in Chillicothe, Ohio, where she started working in libraries at the age of 13. She graduated from the University of New Mexico and received her Master's Degree in Library Service from Columbia University, where she was President of the Student Council. She was appointed Director of Darien Library on March 1, 1979. Previously she was Head of Adult Services at Westport Public Library, and before that began her career at New York Public Library. She is nationally known for developing at Darien Library the practice of "extreme customer service."
Alan Kirk Gray, currentIy Chief Administrative Officer, has been designated by the Board to succeed as Director of Darien Library on March 1, 2014. He has been with the Library for seven years and, among other responsibilities, was responsible for the planning and services incorporated into the new Darien Library which opened in January, 2009.
"Alan has been essential to the growth and success of Darien Library since he joined us, and we have all come to rely on his expertise in planning, development of services, budgeting, management and operations," said Louise Berry. "Darien Library is going to be in great shape going forward under his leadership."
"The best part of Louise telling us now," Bruce Ferguson said, "is that we have more than a year to celebrate the great things that she has contributed to the community of Darien, and to recognize her achievements for what they are -the highest standard of professionaI pubIic service. Louise Berry has made Darien Library into one of the great public libraries in the nation, but even more than that, she has, with her leadership, friendship and empathy, contributed to the lives of tens of thousands of library users and Darien residents."

The young woman at the center of the president's problems finally takes the witness that.
I thought to myself I knew I wouldn't either relationship if you believe -- You will see this morning how the president -- local web of perjury.
And obstruction of justice.
I believe that.
The president says something.
You can always say you're coming -- see Betty you're bringing me papers.
The president's lawyers argued that there is no clear evidence that he ever did anything illegal.
The senate agrees.
But quitting their president on all charges I'm not ashamed of the fact that they -- -- that was their decision not mine.
And it was wrong.
I agree it was.
I think.
Married men lie about things like getting oral sex from.
In -- it's happened countless men countless times.
And that president was being judged by people who.
Whose hands were as dirty as his own in their own various nefarious if -- are some of them at least.
Joining us now that's Gennifer Flowers Jennifer on the left Jennifer claimed her own affair with the president of the United States on the right Mike Walker he never had -- there -- The president you -- -- with anyone -- -- -- -- the -- of The National -- he's got the exclusive details on Monica's multi million dollar pay day.
-- -- gets you on the next segment Jennifer in this one what do you think about what you're hearing about about Monica the resurfacing of all this stuff is it worth it.
Absolutely I think that she has a right to tell her story certainly a lot of things have happened in her life -- she.
Talked about this at all he's almost forty years old now I think she was what 2122 years old when all this happened.
She's a you know she lives in the United States of America.
And as far as I know we still have equal rights as women.
And she has every right to come out and tell her story if there's a publisher that's making money from her story she has a right to compensation.
So compensation -- is it right though it.
You know Hillary to hurt the secretary of state and all the good work the president has done.
I'm not aware of -- and I'm I'm aware of some of the good that he's done I'm aware of a lot of the bad that he's done he's a liar.
He did perjure himself.
He's he's never really been held totally responsible for all the -- in the cheating.
That he's done his -- need to hold him responsible for that day you don't.
-- I'm I'm not having an affair with a man anymore and -- Monica Lewinsky I mean let Hillary.
You know talk to -- about that.
That's gotta go we'll be right back.

Blue Man Group
Blue Man Group at N. Charleston Performing Arts Center.
Call for details and mention you found this information on Zvents.
Created by TicketNetwork | Claim this event
Experimental musical theater troupe the Blue Man Group were founded in 1987 by longtime friends Matt Goldman, Phil Stanton, and Chris Wink; identical in their blue-painted skin, skullcaps, and black clothing, they soon became a fixture of the New York underground performance art scene thanks to their regular appearances in Central Park, followed by shows at noted East Village spaces including Dixon Place, Performance Space 122, and the Wooster Group's Performing Garage....
That was a great show, and it really brought me into contact with this group. I figured it was gonna be epic just from the way they were portrayed in the show, and I wasn't dissapointed. I mean, it's not like I ever got to see them perform once in the show, but seeing them live was a totally different story.
It's like watching a really good rock concert. Obviously most stuff is precussion, but they really are what other successful groups that do similar stuff are based on. Stomp is in the same vein, but even as a full blown music, they can't put on a show that is really comparable. I think I may have the best mix, now that I think about it. Imagine if you mixed Stomp and Daft Punk. You get the awesome episodic stage show with really impressive, basic, sounds mixed excellently.
I took a half star off for the price, but I would pay it again.

Can you afford to help me?
On my walk home tonight, a man who was homeless asked me "can you afford to help me?"
His question made me think in a new context and because it did, I responded with a yes and gave him 5 bucks. I usually do not, but that's another post.
He made me wonder how I might restructure my own questions to get more favorable responses and what else I can afford to give.
What questions would you like different responses too?
What else can you afford to give?

I was getting to be a regular because I really love the food and the prices. But the last time this SWF went in for lunch, I got a couple of unwanted sides of affection from a male waiter. Haven't been back since.

Very tasty meals, proper portions and a great deal price wise. I would definitely eat here again if staying in this area.
The atmosphere is not as bad as some previous reviews suggest and the food is good. I ordered a white cheese and chorizo dip as an appetizer which was excellent and followed that with some steak soft tacos which were very good and well seasoned. The rest of the family enjoyed their food, but everybody had a hard time eating... More
Stopped there after hiking, and it was worth the stop. The food was excellent the white sauce that comes with the chips is unreal and you will want to order more then one. Great value and fast service!! This was Mexican done right!!
Best Mexican food we've had in VA, and we will return again. Also, the margaritas are "generous" to say the least. Extremely friendly staff make it a warm and inviting place to dine.
Stopped into this place within the past year traveling through Luray at the Caverns. Place was fairly busy but was seated right away and service was good.

We came here because my friend wanted some guacamole and we weren't disappointed. The guacamole was fresh and best of all, it was free. The salsa was also really good and free as well. The food was decent for the price, we ordered the beef/chickent/shrimp fajitas for 2 people, and costs us only $15.99.
Yes i vote here for any dish...Great fast service. Good location also no wait either. We took our family.they had great margaritas
We were expecting a typical small town mediocre meal, but these people know their tex-mex, and the service is good.
We went for a lunch on a Saturday. Both of us got steak fajitas. I am just used to fresh sizzling steak on a heated platter with freshly grilled onions, tomatoes, and peppers. Cold sides on a separate plate. Here it comes in one big plate. did not look so good. Tasted average. So it was ok to eat. The... More

The European Commission has fined seven international groups of companies a total of € 1,470,515,000 for participating in either one or both of two distinct cartels in the sector of cathode ray tubes ("CRT"). For almost ten years, between 1996 and 2006, these companies fixed prices, shared markets, allocated customers between themselves and restricted their output. One cartel concerned colour picture tubes used for televisions and the other one colour display tubes used in computer monitors. The cartels operated worldwide. The infringements found by the Commission therefore cover the entire European Economic Area (EEA). Chunghwa, LG Electronics, Philips and Samsung SDI participated in both cartels, while Panasonic, Toshiba, MTPD (currently a Panasonic subsidiary) and Technicolor (formerly Thomson) participated only in the cartel for television tubes. Chunghwa received full immunity from fines under the Commission's 2006 Leniency Notice for the two cartels, as it was the first to reveal their existence to the Commission. Other companies received reductions of their fines for their cooperation in the investigation under the Commission's leniency programme. Commission Vice President in charge of competition policy Joaquín Almunia said: "These cartels for cathode ray tubes are 'textbook cartels': they feature all the worst kinds of anticompetitive behaviour that are strictly forbidden to companies doing business in Europe. Cathode ray tubes were a very important component in the making of television and computer screens. They accounted for 50 to 70% of the price of a screen. This gives an indication of the serious harm this illegal behaviour has caused both to television and computer screen producers in the EEA, and ultimately the harm it caused to the European consumers over the years". The two CRT cartels are among the most organised cartels that the Commission has investigated. For almost 10 years, the cartelists carried out the most harmful anti-competitive practices including price fixing, market sharing, customer allocation, capacity and output coordination and exchanges of commercial sensitive information. The cartelists also monitored the implementation, including auditing compliance with the capacity restrictions by plant visits in the case of the computer monitor tubes cartel. Top management level meetings, dubbed "green(s) meetings" by the cartelists themselves because they were often followed by a golf game, designed the orientations for the two cartels. Preparation and implementation were carried out through lower level meetings, often referred to as "glass meetings", on a quarterly, monthly, sometimes even weekly basis. Meetings were held in various locations in Asia (Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Hong Kong, etc.) and Europe (Amsterdam, Budapest, Glasgow, Paris, Rome). The cartels operated worldwide. Multilateral meetings usually started with a review of demand, production, sales and capacity in the main sales areas, including Europe; then prices were discussed, including for individual customers, i.e. TV and computer manufacturers. They had therefore a direct impact on customers in the European Economic Area (EEA), ultimately harming final consumers. The cartelists were trying to address the decline of the CRT market in a collusive way, to the detriment of consumers. For example, one document recording the cartel discussions spells out clearly: "producers need to avoid price competition through controlling their production capacity". The investigation also revealed that the companies were well aware they were breaking the law. For instance, in a document found during the Commission's inspections, a warning goes as follows: "Everybody is requested to keep it as secret as it would be serious damage if it is open to customers or European Commission". The participants were therefore taking precautions to avoid being in possession of anticompetitive documents. Some documents spelled out, for example: "Please dispose the following document after reading it". Fines The fines were set on the basis of the Commission's 2006 Guidelines on fines (see IP/06/857 and MEMO/06/256). In setting the level of fines, the Commission took into account the companies' sales of the products concerned in the EEA, the very serious nature of the infringement, its geographic scope, its implementation and its duration. If Chunghwa had not received full immunity, its fines would have been € 8 385 000 for the TV tubes cartel and € 8 594 000 for the computer monitor tubes cartel. Samsung SDI, Philips and Technicolor received reductions of fines ranging from 10 to 40% for their cooperation under the Commission's leniency programme. The reductions reflect the timing of their cooperation and the extent to which the evidence they provided helped the Commission to prove the respective cartels. One of the companies invoked its inability to pay the fine. The Commission assessed this claim under point 35 of the 2006 fines Guidelines and granted a reduction of the fine. The fines imposed are as follows:
I guess the thought never dawned on them that demand was falling for CRTs so the supply chain squeezed to compensate. The fact most of those fined have a large pressence in the LCD market (technology that replaced CRT) shows how baseless this is. Low end LCDs, despite costing less in terms of labor and materials, still cost about the same as low-end CRTs in the years cited (1996-2006) further making this look like a witch hunt. No matter, EU milking corporations for cash is not news--it's fast becoming tradition. I'm just waiting for a company to flip the bird at the EU, refuse to pay the fine, and leave the market.
not a problem. if they don't like the market here they can always leave it PS Philips is an european company
This is not a personal attack against Europeans, so don't feel like those statements are attacking you. I don't take it personally when my Gov't gets attacked. It is quite a coincidence that they are fining those companies, and with record amounts, more than ever after their own financial difficulties. Also, why is the Government getting paid for this? It is like person A cheats person B out of money, and person C fines person A for their actions, and buys a new car with it.
You put cartel leaders in prison for a long time, not fine them. The problem with that is the EU can't jail someone that the EU can't convict of a crime so they fine them instead. This makes the EU no better than the corporations they fine. To me, it's no different the school bully demanding kids give them their lunch money.
I wouldn't go that far, they need to do something I guess. Also, was this cartel only in Europe? or worldwide? EDIT: Chungwha are a bunch of rat-bastards.
Take the accused to court and have a jury determine their punishment assuming they are convicted. If a fine is leveed, it needs to go to those that were affected by the criminal act, not EU treasury.
Why doesn't the EU go after OPEC? They price fix with pride. Oh because they might get cut off from oil? I guess the EU is only brave with people who cannot fight back.
While that in particular would be kinda hard, anything would be better than the treasury. That goes right into politicians pockets. At least in America it does. I was in the military and two years ago, and when the US Gov't couldn't agree on a bill, we had a spending halt. I was not going to receive my measly 40,000/yr paycheck mid-month. Guess who was still getting paid though? Everyone else in government who were making leaps and bounds more than me. Oil price fixes everywhere. The problem is, it is never a good idea to fine someone if you are on their payroll.
I'm surprised anyone is sticking up for the companies here, just about every component maker of the computer industry has been busted, (by European and American regulators)and some have been busted more than once like the memory makers. Actually this isnt the first strike against monitor makers, they got busted price fixing LCDS as well a few years back. When companies collude, consumers pay more and have less choice and its bad for capitalism. Fine them harder I say.
Can the EU fine other countries? Is OPEC a corporation? OPEC may be a "cartel" but is no different to NATO (especially NATO during the Cold War). In the same way as NATO had a "monopoly" of force in the West, OPEC has a "monopoly" of oil. The only difference is that that force is not sold, but can be projected. And that oil is sold, but you can't just "project" your oil to other countries. Before saying ignorant things like that MM, you should try answering much more important questions first like the two I asked above.
OPEC has more then a few corporations that distribute the oil. EU could go after any number of them. They don't.
I'm sorry, but that's just silly. Since OECD and former USSR countries started extracting more oil, OPEC lost it's ability to control oil prices. OPEC hasn't had that much influence on the oil market in the past 10 years. The EU should have went after OPEC in 1973 if anything. And just to make it clear, OPEC is an intergovernmental organization. Corporations doing business in Europe... are a different thing. If they go against EU regulation, the European Commission will fine them, and they have a good track record for protecting EU citizen consumer rights. And the EU has a lot tougher regulation than most other markets, but it's also the biggest developed consumer market in the world. And those saying that the EU is biased in this decision, Philips is a Dutch corporation and it has the second highest fine.
The problem though, is that those fines may not make a positive difference for consumers/the factory workers.

Villa Sport, 24 Hour Fitness
I've always had a passion for teaching and dancing. While in college I would take aerobics classes and had a teacher that was fun and motivating. I knew I wanted to what she did, but knew my parents would kill me if I came home from college telling them I was going to teach fitness classes. So, I got my degree in education and social work because I loved to teach and help others and set out to do just that. Since I had the entire summer before my teaching job would start I started thinking I can teach fitness part-time. I loved to dance and make up choreography so I found an aerobics instructor training course at the local community college and took the class and got my AFAA certification shortly afterwards. Over the years, my fitness journey has taken me through many different formats and I enjoy teaching them all. Once I had my daughter I went from teaching school during the day to putting that on hold and teaching fitness instead. I still get to do what I love and raise my daughter too.
One of my favorite formats to teach is Yoga; if you would've asked me a few years back I would have refused to even take a class. I had this notion that yoga was boring and too slow for me. I met an amazing instructor that changed my perception. Since she taught the class in Vinyasa flow I realized I found a style that would spark my personal yoga journey. This instructor decided to take a job at another club, so I was asked to take over her classes. Since taking over the classes I find I am teaching more and more mind/body classes than ever before and it feels amazing. I cannot believe I almost passed yoga by because it was something out of my comfort zone. I am being trained through YogaFit and love it. I have met some amazing instructors over the years and hope that I can inspire others the way I have been inspired. Being a teacher in any field can create/spark a desire to do something different or new. So hurray to all teachers.
While teaching any class format, I like challenging the mind as well as the body, so I try to create choreography that fits the challenge. I believe that if the mind isn't getting a workout with the body then we are short changing ourselves in the "total body" experience that it needs. Being healthy and fit isn't just about the body it needs to include the mind and the life-style choices we make.
My philosophy with regards to teaching yoga is that is gives the body and mind a break from our daily stressors (phones, TV., pressures, etc.) and allows us those few minutes in the beginning (connecting with the breath)and end(?av?sana) to really connect with our bodies and "let go" of all the other "stuff".

Has anybody ever figured out what this In-Game Discussion Forum is all about? Supposedly it's for less than "hardcore strategy" questions and issues, but to be honest I don't think I've recognized any real pattern to the threads here. I think it's just the place where people like to post something when they don't know where else to post it!
look what i found on google
like threads about anything under the sun... or nothing at all...
I finished day 3 of my biking trek to lose 25 lbs... 45 miles so far... only 1830 miles to go... piece of cake...
best regards,
bah.. future important thread? i only care about a thread thats important to me now..
I'm not an optimist like the author but it was interesting nonetheless...
Yup, I've heard the same thing about WWII. But there are always counter-examples. Some people argue that Iraq has been bad for our economy. I'm not making a case against the war, but just saying that it's a little one-sided and maybe cynical to claim (not that you were doing this perhaps) that we go to war mainly to make a profit. I'm not your history teacher, of course, but I bet he or she could cite some historical examples of empires stretching themselves thin because of too many wars.

Original HGB quote stimulating the above:
"today a friend said ww2 got us out of the great depression.."
Sorry, I'm going to nitpick a bit especially since I can do so with impunity now...
I think asserting that WWII helped the USA out of the Great Depression is valid. I don't think that necessarily implies the primary reason the USA went into WWII was to get out of the Great Depression. Nor does it imply there are/were no other way(s) to get out of the Great Depression. In short, I agree with your assertions but I don't think saying WWII helped get the USA out of the Depression is contradictory to your assertions either.
best regards,

I'm pretty certain that America's involvement was financially motivated, at least partially. They had a lot of money tied up in the allies. If Germany conquers Britain, suddenly all that investment disappears.
But of course, it's one of many reasons. I don't think any of us could pinpoint the exact reason your country joined the war.
there were a few options...
The obvious ones notwithstanding (Ie, the claims as to why the states went from arms supplier to direct combat).
as per the US/great depression:
While it may not exactly be a direct link (Let's get the world to go to war so that we can make stuff), the war did have a direct effect on the economy. Factories were started up and at more than 100% capacity, meaning more jobs, meaning more people getting money to spend, and they did.
Ultimately, being the arms dealer at first really helped getting that industrial base moving.
After that, well, adding a million people to the military does effectively help the economy somewhat.
The Military-Industrial Complex benefits from wartime spending. Not so much the rest of the economy. (yes there are benefits that cross over, as in more money spent, but in general other areas can be negatively affected).
the one part that gets ignored a lot is that governments go very deep in debt during/after wars never making the money back. The private sector keeps the money. (one could argue about taxes made, but it never makes up for the amount spent).
So in the end... the MIC/Big Oil wins in wars, everyone else gets stuck with a big bill.
companies like haliburton have absolutely perfected this process. anyone seen what they charge per meal for soldiers over in iraq and afganistan? its a crazy amount and whats really bad is our military never had any troubles feeding itself for hundreds of years.
Did you even read HGB's original link? I didn't think so. Nothing in your response pertains in the slightest to the orignal context of my conversation with HGB. It's really not so much that you can act or speak with impunity, but only with hypocrisy. Perhaps if you respect my desire to be left alone for the time being, we won't have a stupid flame war. But I guess you don't know how to give people space when it's suggested via PM that that would be best. I'd honestly rather not talk with you right now, but will do so if needs be.

I don't think a .JPEG w/arrows constitutes much of a read, or much of a "context" or "conversation".
If you don't want to talk, then don't already. But public comments are public, are fair game for public comment, & in this case completely unrelated. I can remove the "Zef" reference though going forward easily enough. However, attempted inflammatory behavior emboldened by a few drinks at the airport bar, a few joints perhaps, & maybe some recent hanky-panky will get you nowhere... who knows maybe you just got off an airplane before you typed this...
amusing nonetheless...

Just in the USA because their system is so poorly designed. And er anywhere they have influence...
I always find it really funny when thailand buys a pack of subs or NZ buys a big war ship when it is almost impossible to imagine a scenario where they would be of any use at all, and the military just goes on about mainitaining relations with the US or about how they are such a bargain. geezzzz...
Maybe part of that is the war profiteering that went on in WWI and WWII ie that the US economy became great by arms dealing so it cant bring itself to stop doing it.
anyway as to profiting from wars - I heard that the rwandans made quite a nice profit from their war with the surounding countries (... genocide aside) because they captured diamond mines.
And in terms of getting one out of the depression you dont have to have a war - that is jsut a really inefficient way of doing the same thing you could achieve with any big motivating project. Although finding one that gets people working together could be hard.

Germany is conducting a soccer clinic right now in the World Cup w/Australia as the unfortunate student(s). 4-0 currently. Ouch!
best regards,
soccer is a game where 22 people chase a ball around for 90 minutes and in the end the germans win.
Germans also have the easy side of the draw - look at the horror run that teams like portugal have to face to get to the finals...
This thread is my favorite. All the good topics, good debates, and occasional flaming, such an interesting read. 40 pages, ranging from US political manuevering, mind-body connections, origins of life, universal laws vs psuedo potentiality, turns out this is a pretty important thread zef, i think we can all agree on that much.
oh and btw, ready for some debate?
Oh, and thrasher, that website is nice and tidy for you. Presentation gets an A+

Paraguay scores at 38th minute against Italy w/header off of set play! Paraguay leading 1-0! Italy's players look stunned.
best regards,
lol, brazil almost tied with north korea...
looks like a lot of the 'big' teams are having a slow start.
the world cup is a boring one for now. nearly all teams seem scared to risk anything. one of the few opportunities to be excited about being german.
and all these terrible vuvuzeelas. the stadiums aren't filled up. i'm beginning to believe it was a mistake to arrange the world cup in africa.
The tickets were beteween (I'm not sure) 120-150 euro, they reduce it by half to fill the stadium. Seems like a bad math, who can afford multiple 60-75 euro tickets... Yeah the trumpet are annoying even on tv I can't imagine what it is in the stadium... For now, I' ve liked how South Korea and Chile have played. The big team hasn't been at their best, but it was only the first game and they haven't played that many game together... It will get better I'm sure.
in the tv they said the tickets cost 45. that may be too much for the average south african but it isn't for europeans. the problem is that a flight ticket costs more than 1000 at the moment. anyway, i thought at least english and german fans would fill the stadiums. in the 2006 world cup in germany, the congestion was incredible. it was practically impossible to order tickets and, still, they were more expensive than in south africa.Originally Posted by SVPM
south korea played a decent game. but i miss some offensive play like the germans'. i don't know the reason for this aloofness and i really don't long for more games like france vs. uruguay or japan vs. cameroon.
Yeah but its the world cup. I love it. I drew NZ in the office sweep stake (2,500 - 1) no chance.
The Germans will do well (they always do - they know how to win). SOanish are loosing at the moment.
England well - what a rubbish performance against the Americans. We should be sent hime in shame...,....
That's what I meant for the ticket price... I prefered the 10-20 can$ for the World Cup U20 in Mtl 2-3 years ago...
I didn't saw the Germany game I had my physiotherapy at that hours. Only 2 things to do in my whole week and it's at the same time of some of the best game...
