Hello all,
I was curious to know if an occasional joint of pot would disrupt my body's ability to stay defined and build muscle while doing everything else right (Eating, Workouts, Sleep, Hydration, etc.)
If anyone here smokes and would not be shy to answer how it works for you, I'd really appreciate that.
Thank you,

Oh that sucks, at least the end is in sight though! and then.....BGE
right now getting quotes for a new roof/window & skylights (they are net new) and new shakes on the front.
More immediate is getting a new basement window, had a flood the other night where the frame of the current one is leaking. Today is clean up the aftermath of it day, just trying to get in the mood to go down there.
Sounds like you have much to do.......I feel your pain!
As soon as the truck is together I have to tear into the tractor again. My "might work" attempt to fix the leak failed so now I have to, basically, strip it to nothing to replace a $10 gasket. Ugh. Then back to "normal" fall chores.
BGE is on temporary jd until this other crap is dealt with......shouldn't be much longer though. I'll use it in the Winter though so I'm not pressed.
^ very true.
alright I'm headed down to clean up the mess. yay*.
*this may or may not be an accurate indicator of my mood right now.

Over at GNXP, Jason Malloy unloads on the Watson brouhaha.
My published articles are archived at iSteve.com -- Steve Sailer
In his brilliant essay "Darwinism and Darwinisticism" Morse Peckham (the great Cultural Historian who in 1959 edited the Variorum text of The Origin of Species) made the following pertinent remarks:
"We need a formula or model which will do something to explain not the rejection of "The Origin", which is not too difficult to understand, but the perverting and self-deluding acceptance of the work. The following formulations will serve, I think, as a start.
When a human being encounters a stimulus which cannnot be fitted into an existent orientation, the fundamental tendency is either to negate the value and importance of the stumulus or to inhibit its effect, either by denying its existence or by misinterpreting it."
He goes on to talk about the process of moving from one Orientation to another that is more advanced (as was the case with many who were effected by Darwin's work).
The basic pattern is:
Orientation-Disorientation-Reorientation. As Peckham points out, few make it through to a full Reorientation.
"The arrival at a new high-level orientation requires high intelligence, a personality strong enough to endure considerable distrubance and frustration without collapsing or putting up defenses, a high-level culture, and - very probably the most important factor - willingness to endure considerable loss of energy.
For maintaining a pattern involves loss of energy, but creating and maintaining a novel pattern, particularly one not reinforced by the environment, involves even greater loss. It is easy now to range the responses to to the Origin in a kind of order; those who totally rejected it; those who completely misunderstood it; those who incorporated it into their existing set of attitudes by misinterpreting it; and finally those who understood it and subjected their personal cultures to a complete restructuring...
An orientation functions as a means of reinforcing the sense of identity; the sense of value....At any time a stimulus which conflicts with an existent orientation is disturbing, and Darwin is still capable of being very disturbing. It is difficult to absorb the fact, but for the most part our total culture has still been only very superficially affected by Darwinism."
And this essay was published in September 1956! In any event, it's not hard to see how the above remarks apply to the events in October surrounding James Watson. The essay in question is from "The Triumph of Romanticism" Collected Essays by Morse Peckham.
I agree, Jason's post is amazing. If all of us were required to maintain similar standards of relevance and thoroughness, most blogs would have to fold.

Thanks for your intriguing article. Other thing is that mesothelioma cancer is generally brought on by the breathing of dust from asbestos fiber, which is a carcinogenic material. It can be commonly viewed among individuals in the engineering industry who definitely have long experience of asbestos. It can also be caused by moving into asbestos insulated buildings for some time of time, Inherited genes plays a huge role, and some persons are more vulnerable towards the risk as compared with others.
I also believe that mesothelioma is a unusual form of cancer malignancy that is generally found in all those previously exposed to asbestos. Cancerous tissues form inside the mesothelium, which is a shielding lining that covers almost all of the body's body organs. These cells normally form inside lining from the lungs, belly, or the sac which encircles the heart. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

We're aiming to reach that number and hopefully exceed it in 2012.Recently, we launched the AOA's "Live a Full Life with Fibro" campaign. Our spokesperson Jennifer Caudle, DO, spoke with a number of reporters including an editor from Good Housekeeping to familiarize the public about this disease. Another AOA member, Ronald V. Marino, DO, discussed the DOs' whole-person approach to caring for patients and the use of OMT in treating children and adults during an interview on "On Call for Kids," a live program broadcast on SiriusXM Satellite Radio station Doctor Radio. This is just a sampling of where you'll see or hear us in the media. Be sure to check out our Media Center for a better idea of our coverage.But, we can all do our part to promote the profession as well. One of the easiest ways you can help is to take advantage of Health for the Whole Family articles provided by the AOA. Every month, you'll receive an article highlighting a health topic. You can make copies of them for your waiting room or even submit them to your local newspaper or hospital newsletter. Email email@example.com to start receiving these articles. Together, we can promote the profession and educate the public so they no longer have to ask, "What is a DO?"

By Mayo Clinic staffObesity is defined as having an excessive amount of body fat. Obesity is more than just a cosmetic concern, though. It increases your risk of diseases and health problems such as heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.
Being extremely obese means you are especially likely to have health problems related to your weight.
The good news is that even modest weight loss can improve or prevent the health problems associated with obesity. You can usually lose weight through dietary changes, increased physical activity and behavior changes. In some cases, prescription medications or weight-loss surgery may be options.

Hi ENTS,
I am a filmmaker, and I recently returned from a wildlife film symposium in Denver. I met these great guys out there from an organization called Treefight (www.treefight.org), which is dedicated to the fight against the white pine beetle. We started chatting, and we realized a great film could be made about the plight of all trees in North America. From what I understand, every North American tree species has a pest and is in terrible danger.
This is just a fledgling of an idea, so I just wanted to explore what the options might be. My questions for you are A) Do you think this is a good idea? B) Do you have any ideas for funding sources for this film aside from the conventional NSF-type grants? For example, a North American tree society or something. And C) Do you have any good ideas for me?
I'm looking forward to your input.
Also, hello Bob! I hope you're well!
Jennie Berglund

Obscurity Points // Omar Souleyman
June 12th, 2012 | Features | 0 Comments
Omar Souleyman – Hafer Garbak Bidi
Syria has always existed in my mind as a really, really bad place. A place of government oppression, Islamic fundamentalism, and just plain old bad news. I've never thought of it as a place where people live, eat, sleep, make music, care about daily matters. But the truth is that it is a place with all those things (it has to be right?). Regardless of how terrible the place you live in is, life goes on, art goes on, sex goes on, etc.
Omar Souleyman is a Syrian musician who plays Arabic music with maybe a weird kind of pop influence – it's exciting, it's got weird synths, it sounds tradition and pseudo-traditional at the same time. All in all, pretty interesting stuff. The guy is actually what we would call a wedding singer, but he's a legit artist, not the kind of shmucks we have here who just play crappy old covers and Black Eyed Peas songs. Most of his recordings are actually just recordings made of his performances at weddings – they'd sell cassettes of them later at kiosks.
In recent years his stuff has been reissued in the West by the record label Sublime Frequencies and he's toured around North America, including a stop in Toronto's Wrongbar just this Saturday. He's worked with Bjork and Damon Albarn, and Caribou selected him to play ATP in England last December. Not bad for a Syrian wedding singer.
Now, I don't know if his stuff is so insane as to shake the foundations of the world and inspire us all to put aside our differences and just get along – I don't even know what the hell he's singing about (hopefully it's all politically correct…) – but musically it's pretty solid, not inaccessible to Western ears, and still definitely fits the kind of exotic orientalist archetypal sounds we expect from an Arab musician. I've been listening to one of the compilations that's come out more recently, Jazeera Nights, so if you're looking for somewhere to start, that's the album I'd recommend.

UPDATED 6:28 a.m. Sunday
Halifax police have charged two 15-year-olds in connection with a home invasion and robbery of an elderly Dartmouth man on Wednesday.
The 81-year-old man answered the door of his Princeton Lane home at about 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday to find two young men, one of them armed with a handgun. One of the teens forced the man into his basement and demanded the keys to his 2010 Buick LaCrosse.
The two 15-year-olds are in custody and will appear in a Halifax court on Monday to face charges of robbery, break and enter, possession of stolen property, firearm-related offences and failure to comply with court orders.
The same two teens have also been charged in connection with another break and enter that took place in the Preston area the same night, police said.
Two other teens also face charges in the Preston-area incident. A 16-year-old boy is in custody and will appear in Halifax court on Monday on charges of break and enter and possession of stolen property. Another 16-year-old boy faces the same charges, but has been released and will appear in court at a later day.
An 18-year-old man who was initially arrested in connection with the Preston-area break and enter has been released without charges.
On Thursday, the daughter of the 81-year-old victim said her father was bruised and in pain from being pushed hard to the basement floor during the home invasion.
According to police, two young men knocked on the man's door on Princeton Lane around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. He opened the door to see what they wanted and they went inside.
One of the teens pointed a small, silver handgun at the man, forced him to the basement and demanded the keys to his 2010 Buick LaCrosse.
He then went through the victim's pockets, found the keys and ran outside with the other teenager, who had been standing at the door.
The two drove off and were last seen driving down Eisener Boulevard toward Portland Street. Later that night, the car was spotted in the area of Simmonds and North Preston roads, but police were unable to find it.
The car was found abandoned Thursday morning on Whynder Lake Road in North Preston.
In an earlier interview, Smith said police think the case was a random attack.
She said some witnesses gave statements that suggest the two suspects had been walking through the neighbourhood before the victim was robbed.
"It could be a case of people casing the neighbourhoods, ... trying to catch people when they're most vulnerable," the officer said.
The victim's daughter said Thursday that a next-door neighbour said the pair knocked on the neighbour's door prior to the invasion. The neighbour did not open her door and the pair left.
She told The Chronicle Herald her father will never again open his door to anyone he doesn't know.

Sample My Newsletter From "I'm Scared of My Horse," Issue 19 of my FREE monthly newsletter Re: Ask A Horse Trainer "This article is for people with a horse that "turned into a brat" since they've owned it. It concerns itself with ground manners and the like – it does not deal with riding issues (such as spooky or jiggy horses). It does not specifically address horses that "have always" been bratty. Rather, if your horse has taken a turn for the worse (manners-wise) since you began dealing with it, this is for you. "Would you like to walk out to the barn, have your horse turn to you with a smile and just hang out, friends for life? Well, that's possible, but first... "First the hard medicine: If your horse has developed poor ground manners (pushy, rude, especially dangerous vices such as kicking or biting) since you've been in charge... then you'll only fix it by realizing that you need to make a change yourself. Every contact we have with our horses teaches them something – and your behavior has "trained" him to walk all over you. When the horse came to live with you he saw you as a blank slate. Would you be in charge – or would he? He knows somebody's gotta be. Millions of years of "survival of the fittest" programmed him to believe that there's gotta be a boss. If you're not ready for the post, he'll assume it. But now, six months or years after moving in, the horse looks at you and sees a giant sucker, with the Tootsie Pop wrapper and everything...."

After completing his studies architecture, his friendship with Ettore Sottsass and Alessandro Mendini took him to Milan at the end of the Seventies, where he became one of the main activists in the provocative designer group Memphis. His approach to the creation of new styles in design helped to play an important role in the Memphis movement, but by the late 1980's, de Lucchi had moved on to more traditional designs. After working with Artemide to develop some of their lasting bestsellers, de Lucchi created his Produzione Privata label, which creates small series of his designs featuring exquisite craftsmanship.

He holds a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Applied Science Weingarten. After graduating, he continued his education and received a degree in integral design at the SADK Stuttgart. In 1997 Michele De Lucchi invited him to work with him in Milan as a project manager in Studio De Lucchi. While he worked he laid the foundations for his own studio, Reichert-Design. In 2004 he was appointed Professor for Design at the University of Applied Science Aachen and in 2007 he accepted the offer for a professorship at the University of Applied Science Schwäbisch Gmünd. His expertise is design in complex global contexts and alternate branches of industry and markets such as office furniture, interiors, lamps and industrial and medical products.

Customer Reviews
OK, but not great.
I am returning this product. It's well made and looks OK but not as interesting as the pictures on the web site. Expensive for what you get. By:Steven S. , Designer (Oklahoma City, OK)
Simple enough to go with three
I purchased two of these to hang over a long counter. Initially I ordered only two because I was afraid 3 would be "too busy" for the space. After seeing them in place, I am ordering a third. The lines and curves of this design make a beautiful addition and do not compete at all with counter fixtures beneath them. I am VERY pleased with this choice. By:Dorothea S. , Homeowner (Houston, Texas)
Really Stunning
Definately a statement. Gives off great light and never fails to get a comment from someone who walks into the bathroom. By:CA Home , Homeowner (SF, CA)
A bit of panache without overdoing it
Avoiding the strictly pragmatic, we chose this pendant for our entry vestibule and couldn't be happier. The escutcheon plate stands out and makes a fine light stand out. By:Trent G. , Homeowner (Minneapolis, MN)
Beautiful piece and unique without being pushy.
I love the piece however the I purchased the large size and it is bigger than I could visualize from the website. By:Saraswati , Homeowner (Asheville)
wickedly beautiful
Lighting is everything, so they say, and this pendant has it all! By:Tom M. , Designer (seatte WA USA)
Love the Logico
Recently, I bought two Logico micro pendants and they're beautiful. Very light , modern and graceful compliment my kitchen perfectly. By:Josefina De G. , Homeowner (New Jersey)
Looks great!
The light arrived carefully packaged and in perfect condition. Overall, it looks just like it is pictured on the website. Great product. Looks beautiful. By:Emily H. , Homeowner (CA)
Beautiful light.
These lights arrived quicker than I expected and were packaged securely. They were as beautiful as I anticapated, however, the size was a little off from what the web site stated. When I contacted ylighting they were very helpful, there was a mistake on the web site and they sent me shipping labels to return the lights at their expense. The customer service was great and easier that driving to and from a store. I have ordered the lights in a different size and am awaiting their arrival. By:Chris B. , Designer (Tracy Ca US)
This is a modern, but very classic, pendant that would work across a range of design styles
This Artemide "Logico" is a classic! I was looking for a pendant to hang over the desk area in our newly remodeled kitchen and wanted something different from the typical pendants that you seem to see everywhere. I went for a more modern look (our house is Victorian) and I absolutley LOVE it! It's like a little piece of jewelry suspended from the ceiling and it looks great from all angles. It's modern but with a very organic feel so it could go well in a range of design settings. It doesn't give off a ton of light...is used more for mood/effect lighting. By:Shannon C. , Homeowner (Chicago)
Beautiful end result. This fixture took 3 of us to hang it. By:Mitford S. , Homeowner (RICHMOND, VA USA)
Outstanding product. Better than expected.
I purchased the logico series in two sizes, accomodating the different needs of the room. After install, I could'nt believe how well it turned out. I would recommend these lights highly. By:Laurie H. , Homeowner (DSM Iowa)
I purchased the logico suspension single product. Very pleased. Superior look and packaging was extremely secure. No bumps or bruises. Y lighting was very easy to work with as well. I would recommend them to anyone. By:Laurie H. , Homeowner (DSM, IA) Free Shipping. Price Guarantee. Easy Returns. It's good to shop at YLighting.At YLighting, we are so confident that the Logico Suspension Single -Open Box will make you happy that we offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee and our 100% Price Guarantee.

Ninth-ranked Tigers top Oglethorpe; win 16th straight
January 22, 2006
January 22, 2006, Atlanta, Ga. - The DePauw women's basketball team, ranked ninth in the latest Division III Coaches' Poll and 10th by D3hoops.com, improved to 17-1 overall and 7-0 in the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference with a 88-60 victory at Oglethorpe. The win was the Tigers' 16th straight, equaling the third longest in school history. The Stormy Petrels dropped to 14-3 overall and 5-2 in the conference.
Oglethorpe led by as many as eight early at 17-9, but the Tigers went on a 10-2 run to tie the game at 19-19. Suzy Doughty's three-point play with 35 seconds left in the half lifted DePauw to a 39-36 halftime margin.
The Tigers opened the second half with a 24-9 run to extend the lead to 63-45 with 12:48 remaining. DePauw then gradually built the margin to as many as 29.
Liz Bondi led the Tigers with 21, while Cassie Pruzin notched a career high with 18 points. Bridget Bailey posted her second double-double with 13 points and a career-high equaling 11 rebounds. Doughty rounded out the double-figure scorers with 12 points and a game-high seven assists.
Biz Richman and Katie Kulavic each scored 12 for the Stormy Petrels with Richman adding 10 rebounds for the double-double. Erin Flynn added 10 points in the loss.
The Tigers connected on 48.6 percent for the game including 59.4 percent from three-point range and held Oglethorpe to 35.7 percent and just 29.2 percent in the second half.
DePauw returns to action on Friday, January 27, when it hosts Southwestern at 6 p.m.

As a parent of a 6 year old whose immunity is well on its way to being built up, I have a problem with these laws. Schools send notes home about communicable diseases saying not to send your child in if they have these symptoms. I will not send my child to school sick. That is my policy. Other parents do send their children to school ill breeding sickness. What am I to do? Am I to send my child to school sick just because of the truancy policies? Should I take him to school with a fever vomitting?
how about sending him to a private school with a little more common sense in it's attendance policies.
how about homeschooling him?
michigan constitution, article 1. Sec. 6.
Every person has a right to keep and bear arms for the defense of himself and the state.
keep your powder dry.
"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." Bovard 1994
Schools allow up to 10 absences a marking period to allow for illness, appointments, etc. So the obvious answer is no, you don't send your child to school vomitting with a fever. 40 days a school year is a lot of lee-way. These laws are designed for children missing excessively. There is even some lee-way with the 10 absences, it's obvious that some children can/will fall ill with chicken pox, a bad flu, etc that may last longer than 10 days... there is always an exception as long as the parent is informing the school of what is going on. This is targetted at the parents who just don't bother to send their kids to school because they are too tired or don't care, or whos children are frequently and excessively 'ditching' school.
you're right, momma...
but i think that if the public schools do not enforce a sensible truancy policy, the extra 10% in detroit, will not get the education we pay for.
it's a matter of value for the dollar. if a child is not sick, not excused, and not in school, they are truant, and the parents should be held responsible. perhaps if the wonderful parents of those kids who skip school excessively were fined each time they did, or made to perform community service of some sort, we would eventually get to THE SEAT OF THE PROBLEM.
I agree. I am a mother of four children ages 14, 13, 11 and 8. We are a family of six. When one person gets sick, it spreads through our house like wildfire, then when the last person gets through it, the next virus has started.(this only occurs during flu season).
I received a POLICE DELIVERED truancy paper from the school today because of the number of days my son has missed. I found this extremely demeaning as a parent. I WILL NOT SEND MY CHILD TO SCHOOL SICK! If more parents kept their ill children home, maybe attendance wouldn't be such a huge issue in the schools.
The thing that gets me is I have given the school written excuses from a doctor taking my child off from school for "X" amount of days and the state and school get to override a doctors orders?
So, let me see if I understand this..... I am to send my child to school vomitting, fever, body aches, headaches and ignore a doctor who says keep him home? Wow! Last time I checked, this is MY CHILD whom I am responsible for, whom I have to pay the doctor bills for, whom I have to take care of when sick and I have to cave to these stupid laws all so the schools can get their "numbers" to get their money? Ummmmm...... not going to happen. Bottom line, my kid is sick, my kid stays home. PERIOD! That is being a responsible parent!
I can see if a parent is truly being "educationally neglectful" ( as my paper stated) by letting a child continually stay home for no reason other than to let them stay home, but who are these people to say when and how often someone can be sick? I had no idea we could pick and choose when to be sick! I choose then to NEVER be sick.
This is a ridiculous law and it needs to change. This is a great example of why I am a current law student. This is the type of law I aim to change. I will not change my policy as a parent and if that means I go to court, so be it.
Wow! How old are you? What makes you think any child you may be referring to is stupid? You are the one who looks stupid making a comment like that!
Anonymous Citizen:If you really want the state to abandon its truancy laws, then make sure at the same time I will not be taxed to support your stupid kid who decides to stay ignorant and subsequently can't support itself. As long as I will have to support your uneducated and indigent spawn as a taxpayer, though, I will insist on having effective truancy laws and enforcement.
Grow up and get off your high horse.
I agree with you crazycajun as far as holding parents responsible for kids that SKIP school. However, parents that keep children home for being ligitimately sick should not fall under this law. I have recently received a truancy paper from my son's school and what kills me, is he has been taken off of school by a doctor for the times missed. I find this very demeaning as a parent when I feel that I am being responsible by keeping my sick child home. I will continue to keep any one of my four children home when they are sick and if that means I go to court, so be it!
sick children should not be a problem for truant officers. they are easy to verify, especially if the school is kept informed. it's the chronic skippers, the 'mall crawlers' and the 'joy riders' that need attending to.
I am being taken to court because my son missed 35 days of school. 10 of which were for a tonsillectomy, 7 were from having severe strep WITH scarletina, and 13 of which were from a severe head injury he received AT SCHOOL! He slipped on water in the bathroom and bashed his face/head on the toilet. 4 months later he still has brusing around the eye and a bump on his cheek. If he hit his head just an inch higher he would have been killed and this is how the school thanks me for NOT suing them... they take me to court for my child's truancy! I understand that there are parents who do not care about their children going to school and they have problems, BUT it should be up to the school district to personalize each case. I mean this is ridiculous!
Did a doctor recommend your child stay home from school for 13 days for a head injury?

It may be related to the Model 82A1/M107, but the M107A1 is far from a simple evolution. Driven by the demands of combat, every component was re-engineered to be lighter yet stronger. The result? A high-performance rifle that weighs four pounds less than the original M107, but is every bit as tough.
Designed to be used with a suppressor, this one-of-a-kind rifle allows you to combine signature reduction capabilities with the flawless reliability of the original Barrett M107. An all-new bolt carrier group has been designed that is key to making the rifle suppressor-ready. its titanium four-port muzzle brake is engineered to work seamlessly with a quick-attach Barrett .50 BMG Suppressor.
The lightweight aluminum upper receiver features an integrated, rigid 27 MOA optics rail. Inside the upper receiver, the bolt carrier rides on a hardened steel, anti-wear strip for added durability. A thermal-guard cheek piece protects the user's face from extreme heat or cold.
Advanced design and manufacturing make the M107A1 more precise than ever. The rear-barrel stop and front-barrel bushing are bolted and bonded with a compound similar to that used on space shuttles. A titanium barrel key and fully chrome-lined bore and chamber add to the rifle's durability.
Enhanced modularity is also a key feature. The rifle's rail-mounted aluminum rear grip can easily be reconfigured. The newly designed titanium and polymer monopod is easily adjustable from either side.
The M107A1 rifle's lower receiver includes a new aluminum recoil buffer system that's optimized for use with a suppressor. The bolt carrier's components are protected with a mix of ultra-hard PVD coatings and advanced nickel Teflon plating that increases lubricity, is corrosion-resistant and greatly eases cleaning.
Numbered witness holes on the magazine are just another example of how even the smallest detail makes a powerful difference.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Geothermal Country Notes
Guatemala's Instituto Nacional de Electrificación (INDE) has five geothermal areas for development. All five (Zunil, Amatitlán, Tecuamburro, San Marcos and Moyuta) lie in the active volcanic chain in southern Guatemala. INDE has conducted both investigative work and development of geothermal power since 1972. It has been estimated that Guatemala's geothermal resource could supply 20% of the country's electricity supply. However, at the present time, only about 3% is derived from geothermal power. The 2004 law, Incentives for the Development of Renewable Energy Projects (which provides a favourable tax regime), together with help from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and various other agencies, will provide the basis for growth in forthcoming years.
The first geothermal power plant in the country was constructed in the Amatitlán area; electricity was produced from a 5 MWe back-pressure plant for a period of three years (from October 1998), during which time the field was evaluated. The Amatitlán field is again producing electricity from a 5 MWe unit and also supports the direct use of geothermal energy, in the form of using steam for drying concrete blocks and a fruit dehydration plant. It is estimated that the area has a total potential of 200 MWe.
A second geothermal plant (in the Zunil I field) with a running capacity of 24 MWe has been operating since July 1999. Following INDE's exploratory drilling work, a contract was signed with Orzunil I for the private installation and operation of the plant. Until 2019 the company will buy steam from INDE and sell power to the national grid. Exploratory drilling in the Zunil II field has shown that it possesses 4 MWe proved capacity and Zunil I has been found to have a potential capacity of 50 MWe.

Tired of the busy life in the busy, crowded, polluted cities of Terra? Have you thought of becoming an intrepid colonist, settling the vast reaches of space? Don't let the unknown scare you! Brought to you by J. P. Graham Transportation, Thaeta-6 is the newest frontier in Terran space. Three times larger than our homeworld, Thaeta-6 is filled with lush forests, deep oceans, a charming menagerie of its own native animals, and… we've saved the best for last, folks… the ruins of an ancient civilization. That's right. Intelligent alien life forms once flourished on Thaeta-6! Will you help uncover more evidence about their way of life?
Whether you're looking for adventure, riches, knowledge, or simply want to start a new, peaceful life in the quiet outer rim colonies, give J. P. Graham a call and tell the nice operator you want a FREE pass aboard the next shuttle to Thaeta-6!
In 473 AE, thirty-three years since the first colonists began building their cities on Thaeta-6, life has taken its own direction under the careful guidance of J. P. Graham Transportation. The next generation of colonists is now being born to the second, who have lived all their lives within the colonies. Eight well-known city-states spread across the planet's surface serve as the hub for human life. Airships of all shapes and sizes fill the skies, heavy with trade cargo, ancient relics, and colonial drifters. An orbital space station watches from above, its slow-moving lights visible in the night sky.
The planet's atmosphere is rich with carbon-dioxide, which because it's heavier than air, poses an asphyxiation risk close to the ground. The city-states flourish under protective permaglass domes, sustained with oxygen generators that filter out carbon and create clean, breathable O2.
To help reduce the pollution that covers the distant world of Terra, much of the technology on Thaeta-6 is steampowered, though still quite advanced. The colonists on Thaeta have too grown very fond of the clockwork technology so different from the burning fuels back on Terra. J. P. Graham provides all of the needed materials for the construction of steampowered machines and vehicles.
Outside the cities though, human life still finds a way to thrive. Adventurers and scholars sweep the uninhabited corners of Thaeta, looking for relics from the fascinating alien civilization. Pirates and rebels, flying their own airships, have become a constant threat to them and other travelers.
And somewhere in between is us.
Our airship, Auberon, along with her captain Regina Shrike, is on the search to find these lost and forgotten relics - to sell for profit. Her ragtag crew comes from all over Thaeta, and one or two of us are even offworlders who came with their families from Terra. We're all here for different reasons. Some for adventure, some for riches, some for knowledge, and some are running from our old lives. A life in the breathable open skies beats one trapped in the permaglass domes. We don't exactly live within the law, but what J. P. Graham doesn't know about us, won't hurt us.
Advanced-level futuristic/steampunk setting. I will be co-GMing this RP with my good friend, Waxwing. Most of these ideas are hers. We're still currently hammering out the details and backstory, but we have a rich plot crafted with open ends available for development by the players who join the story. The plot includes political intrigue, quiet oppression, humans with unusual abilities, questionable alliances, and desperate fugitives. We're very open to new ideas being adopted into the setting, and we'd like this story to take on a very personal meaning for every writer involved.
So, how does that sound? Anyone interested? We'll be needing a co-pilot, a medic, an engineer, possibly a cook, and a navigator who knows the Thaetan landscape, perhaps a weapons specialist, and there are other positions available as well.

Your Idea: A Weapon that creates Peace
Let's face it; War is a business.
How, then, do we create a product of war, that doesn't hurt, maim, or kill, but rather does the opposite and heals, prevents, and stops conflict that a corporate company can patent and therefore make money from, keeping not only innocent people from being harmed, but also feeds the corporate companies' bottom line of keeping investors happy?!?
The idea is simple in effect, and promotes peace whilst still increasing worth.
I just have little idea on what the war product could be, so I'm crowd-sourcing from you, fellow TEDsters, to help build the perfect weapon: A weapon of peace.
Should it be just one weapon of peace, or, just as there are many weapons of war, perhaps there should be multiple weapons of peace that can each be patented by the companies listed here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_modern_armament_manufacturers and allow such companies to make money from peace?
as always, I'm awaiting your thoughts.....
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Dec 13 2012: This is an interesting idea!
But if it is creating peace should then be called a weapon?
Your question reminded me of a saying of Prophet Mohammad PBUH (I will try to find a proper translation and post it here) but my own explanation will be: (Do you want me to tell you about something if you all do then love will spread among all? Spread the word Salam - which is the greeting of Islam (peace be upon you) -
this could be a start.-
Dec 13 2012: as i have come to understand the q'ran (excuse my spelling) the battles that are spoken of in it are referenced to a battle within oneself, and to find peace begins with Salam.
i would be most interested if you could post here the translation that you speak of, as i'm not quite sure i understand it completely.

VIDEO: First Look - Trailer for SOUND CITY Featuring Dave Grohl, Tom Petty & More
In the wake of the confirmation of its premiere at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters, Nirvana) has given fans an unprecedented peek behind the scenes of his directorial debut: The official trailer for his feature documentary film, SOUND CITY, about the legendary Van Nuys, CA studio has just been unveiled. Check it out below!
Grohl, who will travel to Sundance next month along with select artists featured in the film and its forthcoming soundtrack album commented yesterday, "As a first time director, I am humbled to be able to share my passion for songwriting and storytelling with this incredible cast of legendary musicians, as seen through the extraordinary story of America's greatest unsung recording studio, Sound City. Being included in this group of artists is a true honor, and the Sundance Film Festival is the perfect place to premiere a film about craft, integrity, and passion for art. I am over the moon!"
SOUND CITY, the film, was conceived by Grohl after purchasing the legendary custom-built Neve 8028 recording console from Sound City Studios last year. The board, built in 1972, is considered by many to be the crown jewel of analog recording equipment, having recorded such artists as Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Cheap Trick, Guns and Roses, Fear, Nirvana, Rage Against the Machine, Slipknot, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, and countless other musical legends over the past 40 years.
Through interviews with the artists and producers that created decades of musical history at Sound City, the film showcases the amazing history of the studio, focuses on the albums recorded there that went on to change the world, then explores the human element of music in an age of technology, and features performances of new music created exclusively for the film.
Grohl's personal connection to Sound City began with the 1991 recording of Nirvana's breakthrough album, "Nevermind". Selling over 30 million copies worldwide, "Nevermind" changed the entire musical landscape and forever altered the course of Dave Grohl's life.
Roswell Films, a division of the Roswell Records label that releases Foo Fighters music, will distribute the film. Key personnel involved with the film include Producer/Director Dave Grohl; Editor Paul Crowder (Dogtown & Z Boys, Once In a Lifetime, Riding Giants); and Writer Mark Monroe (The Cove, Once In a Lifetime, The Tillman Story). The film is also being produced in conjunction with Jim Rota, John Ramsay, and Therapy studios.
