Can you tell by the way a guy kisses you how he likes you?
I made out with this guy. We french kissed then he rubbed my nose with his and kissed me on the cheek. What does that mean? Is that a friendly kiss or does it mean something more?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
Every person has their preference, and that just could be his own trademark of kissing. I used to kiss a girl that would do that---rub her nose with mine and I asked her what it meant, and she said she liked doing it. Maybe like my preference to kiss a girl's neck after I kiss them. Means nothing, just that I like them....
How do I know he liked me maybe he was just trying to get some action?
What Guys Said 2
What Girls Said 2
It could mean he likes you as a little more then again he could just be a sweet guy to hook up with this is a tough one I have been fooled before to think to much of these little actions just let things play out if he pursues you obviously you will know but do not get your expectations up to high.
Exactly---thinking too much of these actions is just a waste of time. :)

Rex Smith: The privacy line in the digital age
One rainy day this week at a lake in western New York, my teenaged daughter had a particular movie in mind that she thought was playing somewhere nearby. As I went to the next room to retrieve a local newspaper, she made six keystrokes on her laptop and got the when-and-where data almost instantly. I'd […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Compromise a virtue of real patriots
Patriotism, like religious faith, isn't rational. It comes more from the gut than the brain. You can be mad as hell at something your country is doing — ashamed, even, at its shortcomings — and still feel a welling up when you hear somebody singing "God Bless America." In a way, that bumper-sticker phrase from […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Sweet killer wins court reprieve
Worry all you like about the disintegration of Iraq, the plague of hyper-partisanship in Washington and the existential threat of climate change. Here's cause for hope: Liberty was saved this week by New York's highest court, which preserved our right to suck down as much high-calorie carbonated sugary water as we like in a single […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: American values and team names
All right, sports fans, let's get ready to stand up and cheer for our favorite team. Chatanooga Chinks! Chatanooga Chinks! Rah-rah, sis-boom-bah, Go, go — Chinks! No? You're not one of those politically correct types who finds that offensive, are you? Maybe we should shout for another team of fine athletes upholding a great tradition. […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Fear aside, confronting the light
Blinding white light jolted me awake. I'm not ordinarily one to worry unnecessarily about the progress of things, but it occurred to me right then, in the quiet darkness of my own bed in my own home, that this could be the start of The Big One. The trip across the river. The encounter with […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Animal tales draw notice, but why?
Humans have always struggled to figure out how to share the planet with other animals. Some of them we bond with. Others we eat. Most of them we ignore, although there are some creatures that we're inclined to exterminate on sight, like rats and rattlesnakes. But we get a bit weird if an animal emerges […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Uneasy rests the crown on political heir
George Washington gets credit for underscoring the allergy to royalty in the new American nation by rejecting the suggestion that the president be referred to as "Your Excellency," instead embracing the more democratic "Mr. President." But, of course, George and Martha Washington had no children. If they had, might egalitarianism have yielded to the typical […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Getting real with casino's local impact
The other day a friend was complaining about the problems that arise when casinos open — the rise in crime and problem gambling, for starters — and grousing that we're plunging forward with casino development anyway. "We're just not going to get a voice in this, are we?" she said. "Actually, we had a voice," […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: Past rigidity, spirituality seeks a home
Twice in the past two years studies have reported that the Capital Region is one of the least religious places in the country. Maybe we should blame the political climate here — hey, that's our usual target, right? — for making us too cynical to believe in anything. Yet the ordination of a new Roman […] [Read More]
Rex Smith: What do you want to know?
Here are some things you wouldn't know if it weren't for state and federal freedom of information laws: • For years, Albany had a secret system to fix parking tickets, including bull's-eye window stickers issued by the city's police union that enabled officers and their friends to avoid fines. • Dozens of current and former […] [Read More]

Obviously, Wylie Dufresne"s parents never scolded him for playing with his food. His far-fetched innovations can be found in riffs on the humble (air-puffed pizza pebbles) and the exalted (a creamy ribbon of foie gras slips down the throat with barely a twitch of the jaw). Although the 12-course tasting menu could be pared down (it"s possible to become blasé by the time the coffee-coated chicory ice cream arrives), you"ll still end the meal grateful Dufresne"s caprices were indulged.

About the ManufacturerLa Rochere 1475. Made in France. La Rochere has been making traditional French glassware since 1475 and is the oldest continuously running glass factory in Europe, producing beautiful and sturdy heavy glass products in the historic traditional method. The old world feel and personality is the sign of authentic La Rochere glass. La Rochere is located in the forests of the Lorraine and Franche-Comte regions which provided the firewood to heat the furnaces as well as ferns whose ashes provide the potash necessary for the fusion of glass. Each piece of la Rochere glassware is made of a very durable and clear glass completely lead free. Originally created by French glass artisans, each piece represents a true piece of art and history from France, celebrating the glorious creativity of the French people. La Rochere still produces their historic and famous patterns including their exclusive "Napoleon Bee", "Versailles" and "Jacques Coeur" using a process directly inspired from the traditional 19th century method. Each piece is molded in an open mold in two parts, and pressed together when the glass is in molten form. This creates the clearest and most durable glass with the traditional iconic seam. All items are dishwasher safe. Perfect for any table setting or décor, from the most casual garden setting to the most formal table, La Rochere will add that distinctive French style and everlasting charm.

Quote for the Day:
Easy street, Easy street
Where you sleep till noon
Yeah, yeah, yeah
She'd repeat, Easy street
Better get there soon.
Easy street, Easy street
Where the rich folks play
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Move them feet
Move them ever-lovin' feet
To easy street, Easy street.
~ "Easy Street" lyrics, from the musical Annie
The Bonnie Hunter 2012 mystery quilt that I started in November 2012 is FINITO!! Bonnie named the pattern "Easy Street", but I affectionately refer to it as "Scrap Vomit"...because it looks too busy to me.
Unfortunately, while I was hoping for this quilt to be mainly brown, yellow/gold and red, it turned out to have a lot more green than I wanted. It looked like another Christmas quilt to me. Because of that, I wasn't terribly pleased with the way it turned out.
I think that adding the yellow and brown borders did help to tone down the "Christmasy" part a little and did help make it look a little more "fallish".
My daughter-in-law saw the quilt top in my sewing room and raved over it, so I told her she could have it for their guest bedroom when I (finally) got it finished. They are coming in this weekend for Thanksgiving, so I decided that I would finish it before they arrived so that they could take it home with them! I finished quilting it last week and finished sewing down the binding 2 days ago! Just in the nick of time!!
I put it on the bed in our guestroom...the one they will be using while here. Then when they leave they can take it with them. Kinda like a "door prize"! LOL

EVE:WORLDUpdated 3 weeks ago TBD Single Player Futuristic Sim
EVE:WORLD is a free project that takes advantage of the Outerra engine's 1:1 scale rendition of Earth to bring you a planetary invasion simulator set...
Planetary engine that can be used with real elevation data of arbitrary resolution, while being progressively enhanced by fractal algorithms. The fractal algorithms refine and introduce details down to centimeter resolution and can be parametrized by elevation and land class data. A completely random fractal terrain is possible too, or a terrain can be sketched in rough resolution with fractal generating the details. Level of detail ranges from thousands of kilometers down to centimeters, with full visibility. The engine is fully asynchronous, majority of the algorithms running on the GPU while the rest is distributed to multiple CPU cores.
About EVE:WORLD with 1 comment by Mob11 on Nov 7th, 2014
This week's update is a video of a Caldari single-seater fighter launching from a super-carrier.
There are two types of carriers: escort carriers and motherships, though both are classed as "super-capitals". They carry no weapons but have a host of fighters, bombers and drones. I am thinking about making a few changes from the original EVE Online stats as fighter craft have as much offensive power as a cruiser despite being a tenth of the size of just one of their turrets. This would be compensated by letting carriers hold more craft.
I'm also thinking about adding clusters of small turrets to the carriers for point defense, much like real-life carriers have. Finally, the throttles on fighter craft are configured to increase logarithmically instead of linearly due to their high speed. This means you have more precise control over mid-range "combat speeds" but can still punch it to 2 km/s if you need to.

how is this going to compare to the I-Novae engine?
Very impressive! I'd love to know what the licensing costs are for the engine.
All very nice and all, but I want to see some supercars driving down those roads!
Simply amazing. Will it support clouds, weather, rivers and waterfalls, dynamic lightning, day/night cycle, dynamic terrain deformation, more up-close details like grass, bushes, dirt and rocks? Will it only be able to support static models (think swaying trees). What is the performance impact of additionally added models? Say, would it be possible to have a city of thousands of buildings, cars and other items in this world. What price range will this be released at? Gettable for low budget indie-developers?
Yes, all those features are planned. Performance impact of additional models will depend on how good the LOD management on objects will be and how much resources their simulation itself will take.
The engine should eventually evolve into a platform that will support also indie developers, with some kind of royalties based licensing.
Very impressive :)
some of the scenery and lighting effects approach true photorealism. is this engine suited to humans or just vehicles?
Character animations will be added later
Remember Civ, Warcraft, all the others?
Maybe SimCity will finally get its extension =D

Hi all. My name is Victoria and I am a single mother (well kind of) to two wonderful boys. I am returning to school but am having a hard time deciding on which school is best for me. I wanted to know if any of you ladies have tried online schooling? I really like it bc of the convenience factor (like I said single mom

I take classes primarily online from a community college because of the convenience of it.

Thank you so much for your advice (I read it earlier but I couldnt post ). I made the decision to attend online schooling. I did factor all that in and online schooling "won" hands down, lol. I will be attending University of Phoenix. I wonder if the ladies have any feedback on this school.

It must be a relief to have that decision made. What will you get your degree in? When do you start?

I will hopefully start on the 13th of this month. If not, then I will start on the

Most large state schools and community colleges offer a few degrees online and a bulk of their gen ed courses, so you could at least begin there if you aren't interested in a degree in one of the usual online degree offerings (psych, business, marketing, etc).

I will definitely look into some online community colleges here. Thank for the advice.

I'm schooling online and have went to university of phoenix and had an overall experience. I had some special needs that made it hard to continue and due to those circumstances I failed out just 3 classes short of getting my AA in physchology. I took a few months off and then went with a different school online and am doing ok.
You really have to be dedicated to the schooling you are doing and it takes more time than they tell you it does, but I have had some very postive expereinces.

Parent company Time Warner announced today that it is consolidating New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Entertainment, with the former being operated as a unit of Warner Bros.
According to the press release, New Line will maintain separate development, production, marketing, distribution, and business affairs operations but will "will closely integrate and coordinate those functions with Warner Bros. to maximize film performance and operating efficiencies, achieve significant cost savings, and improve margins." In my experience, this is corporate-speak for "where there are two groups doing those functions, there will be one before long." "Efficiencies" and "synergies" are never good buzzwords for employees hoping to keep their jobs.
On that note, New Line's Co-Chairmen and Co-CEOs Robert Shaye and Michael Lynne have elected to leave the studio. It is ironic that a little more than two months after Peter Jackson is back for doing the two movies of The Hobbit, the prequels to the highly successful "Lord of the Rings" trilogy (read article about this news), the man who said "he [Jackson] will never make any movie with New Line Cinema again while I'm still working for the company" is now gone.
How will any of this affect the movies that we get to enjoy? Hopefully, not much. However, if this consolidation is a result of the mis-management of the profits from the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and that, by doing so, it got some projects back on track (like The Hobbit), I'm glad that it happened. Let's hope that buzzword bingo doesn't hit the good people just trying to do their jobs too harshly.

Money Supply Growth Accelerates, Credit to Private Sector Still in Decline
While money supply growth is slowing down in the US, it has recently continued to accelerate somewhat in the euro area. The effects of the ECB's "QE"-type debt monetization activities in the form of covered bond and ABS purchases have not yet impacted aggregate money supply data much as of yet, but the 12-month growth rate of the narrow money supply aggregate M1 (currency and demand deposits, essentially equivalent to money TMS-1) has nevertheless continued to increase:
The 12-month growth rate of the euro area's money supply supply has recently accelerated from an interim low of 5% to approx. 6.5% – click to enlarge.
Negative Interest Rates and Capital Consumption
Ever since the ECB has introduced negative interest rates on its deposit facility, people have been waiting for commercial banks to react. After all, they are effectively losing money as a result of this bizarre directive, on excess reserves the accumulation of which they can do very little about.
At first, only a small regional bank, Deutsche Skatbank, imposed a penalty rate on large depositors – slightly in excess of the 20 basis points banks must currently pay for ECB deposits. It turns out this was a Trojan horse. Other banks were presumably watching to see if depositors would flee Skatbank, and when that didn't happen, Commerzbank decided to go down the same road.
However, there is an obvious flaw in taking such measures – at least is seems obvious to us. The Keynesian overlords at the central bank who came up with this idea have failed to consider a warning Ludwig von Mises once uttered about the attempt to abolish interest by decree.
Obviously, the natural interest rate can never become negative, as time preferences cannot possibly become negative: ceteris paribus, consumption in the present will always be preferred to consumption in the future. Mises notes that if the natural interest rate were to decline to zero, all consumption would stop – we would die of hunger while investing all of our resources in capital goods, i.e., while directing all of our efforts and funds toward production for future consumption. This is obviously a situation that would make no sense whatsoever – it is simply not possible for this to happen in the real world of human action.
Mises warns however that if interest payments are abolished by decree, or even a negative interest rate is imposed by decree, owners of capital will indeed begin to consume their capital – precisely because want satisfaction in the present will continue to be preferred to want satisfaction in the future regardless of the decree. This threatens to eventually impoverish society and reduce it to a state of penury:
If there were no originary interest, capital goods would not be devoted to immediate consumption and capital would not be consumed. On the contrary, under such an unthinkable and unimaginable state of affairs there would be no consumption at all, but only saving, accumulation of capital, and investment.
Not the impossible disappearance of originary interest, but the abolition of payment of interest to the owners of capital, would result in capital consumption.
The capitalists would consume their capital goods and their capital precisely because there is originary interest and present want-satisfaction is preferred to later satisfaction. Therefore there cannot be any question of abolishing interest by any institutions, laws, and devices of bank manipulation. He who wants to "abolish" interest will have to induce people to value an apple available in a hundred years no less than a present apple. What can be abolished by laws and decrees is merely the right of the capitalists to receive interest. But such laws would bring about capital consumption and would very soon throw mankind back into the original state of natural poverty."
(emphasis added)
Ludwig von Mises: he warned that the abolition of interest payments would induce the owners of capital to consume rather than invest it. Society would soon be impoverished as a result.

Of course today's central bankers to a man seem to believe that what makes the economy grow is "spending" and consumption. This is putting the cart before the horse. Since the accumulation of capital threatens to go into reverse due to their policies, there may well come a time period during which reports of aggregate economic statistics appear to indicate that "economic growth has returned", while all they reflect in reality is the fact that scarce capital is in the process of being consumed. This process is also known colloquially as "eating one's seed corn".
TMS-2 Growth Rate Declines Further
The U.S. money supply as represented by TMS-2 (True "Austrian" Money Supply), our broadest and preferred U.S. money supply aggregate, posted a year-over-year rate of growth of 7.7% in October, down from an 8.3% rate in September. Now down 880 basis points (53%) from the current boom-bust monetary inflation cycle high of 16.5% posted in November 2009, this is the lowest year-over-year rate of growth in TMS2 since the 6.9% rate seen in November 2008 (month 4 in this 75 month long and counting inflation cycle). As a result, although we are not yet ready to declare that the economy is staring at an imminent bust in the face, this decelerating trend in the rate of monetary inflation is bringing us ever so closer to one. To investors and speculators alike, we say time to be especially cautious.
Here's the current growth rate in TMS2 in the context of the last 20 year experience …

Arrows Boomerang
Not much market action yesterday. So, let us turn to what is bound to be the funniest… and scariest… story in the financial world.
Once again, our hat is off to the stalwart, intrepid and half-mad Japanese. They are going where no respectable economist would go… no responsible public policy should go… and no one with his wits about him would want to go.
We begin with the latest news: Nippon is in a slump. The numbers from the third quarter confirm that the feared "triple-dip" recession is here.
Japanese growth fell at a 1.6% annual rate for the June-to-September quarter. The consensus forecast had been for a 2.2% rise in growth.
This is bad news for Abenomics. He lets fly his arrows. They end up sticking in his derriere. The idea (if you can call it that) was to stimulate inflation, growth and job creation. How?
Easy. You print more money!
Arrows going awry

A Growing Shortfall
The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation is insuring the pensions of more than 40 million Americans employed in the private sector that have defined benefit pensions. We hadn't been aware that it has run deficits for 12 years running, but it apparently has – and it is adding up. At the moment, the fund has a cumulative deficit of $62 billion. It has reportedly doubled just over the past year:
"The deficit run up by the federal agency that insures pensions for about 41 million Americans has nearly doubled, to $62 billion. And the agency says that without changes, its program for pension plans covering 10 million of those workers will be insolvent within 10 to 15 years. It was the widest deficit in the 40-year history of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp., which has now run shortfalls for 12 straight years. The gap grew wider in recent years because the weak economy triggered more corporate bankruptcies and failed pension plans. If the trend continues, the agency could need an infusion of taxpayer funds to pay retirees, who are guaranteed their pensions by law. The PBGC said Monday that the increased deficit was due to worsening finances of some multi-employer pension plans, which are pension agreements between labor unions and a group of companies, usually in the same industry. The $62 billion deficit reported for the year ended Sept. 30 compared with $36 billion in the previous fiscal year. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez said fixing the problem is vital to the retirement security of the nation's middle-class. Agency officials called for Congress to enact legislation submitted by President Barack Obama designed to shore up the program's finances. The PBGC was created in 1974 as a government insurance program for traditional employer-paid pension plans, which have become much less common in recent decades as most employers turn to retirement accounts such as 401(k)s. The traditional plans are most prevalent in industries such as auto manufacturing, steel and airlines. If an employer can no longer support its pension plan, the PBGC takes over the assets and liabilities, and pays promised benefits to retirees up to certain limits. The agency didn't name the multi-employer plans that it expects to run out of money or how many are involved. It said they represent a minority of the total 1,400 or so multi-employer pension plans, which cover about 10 million workers. "Plans covering over 1 million participants are substantially underfunded, and without legislative changes, many of these plans are likely to fail," PBGC Acting Director Alice Maroni said in a statement. The agency said in its annual report that it has "sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations for a number of years." The agency said the deficit in its multi-employer insurance program jumped to $42.4 billion in the budget year that ended on Sept. 30, from $8.3 billion in 2013. By contrast, the deficit in the single-employer program shrank to $19.3 billion from $27.4 billion as the economy strengthened. The PBGC reported that its pension obligations grew by $30.9 billion in fiscal 2014, to $151.5 billion. Assets used to cover those obligations increased by only $4.9 billion, to $89.8 billion. Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, called the multi-employer insurance program "a ticking time bomb that will inflict a lot of pain on workers, employers, taxpayers and retirees if Congress fails to act."
A Rare Freak Weather Event
It really doesn't happen very often at this time of the year (this is to say, so early in the cold season): in all 50 US States, temperatures below freezing have been recorded overnight on Monday. Yes, even in Hawaii.
The coloring may be a bit confusing, but what this chart of US continental temperatures is saying is: it is as cold as hell, way too early in the year.
Of course we are just making fun of the situation – inclement weather, of whatever sort, is not indicative of "climate change", unless the inclement weather becomes a permanent feature (e.g., if there is snow all year round and the soil remains frozen, one would have good reason to suspect that the next ice age has begun).
Airline Fares Are Declining – Aren't They?
A recent AP article published by ABC piqued our curiosity. It is entitled "Why Airfare Keeps Rising Despite Lower Oil Prices." Evidently, the authors felt an explanation was in order – maybe people have complained that air fares keep going up in spite of declining fuel prices? We can't be sure what motivated them to write the article, but here are a few excerpts:
U.S. airlines are saving tens of millions of dollars every week because of lower prices for jet fuel, their largest expense. So why don't they share some of the savings with passengers?
Simply put: Airlines have no compelling reason to offer any breaks. Planes are full. Investors want a payout. And new planes are on order.
In fact, fares are going higher. And those bag fees that airlines instituted in 2008 when fuel prices spiked aren't going away either. In the 12 months ended in September, U.S. airlines saved $1.6 billion on jet fuel. That helped them post a 5.7 percent profit margin in the first three quarters of this year, robust for the industry but lagging behind the 10 percent average for the Standard & Poor's 500.
In the past six years, airlines have done a great job of adjusting the number of flights to fall just short of demand. As a result, those who want to fly will pay a premium to do so. Airlines are selling a record 85.1 percent of their domestic seats. Thanks to several mega-mergers, four big airlines control the vast majority of flights, leaving very little room for another airline to undercut fares. With that in mind, here's a closer look at what's going on with airfare and the price of jet fuel:
— The average domestic airline ticket during the 12-month period ending in September rose 3.5 percent to $372.21, according to an Associated Press analysis of data from the Airlines Reporting Corp., which processes ticket transactions for airlines and travel agencies. That figure doesn't include another $56 in taxes and fees that passengers pay.
— In the 12-month period ending in September, U.S. airlines burned through nearly 16.2 billion gallons of fuel. They paid an average of $2.97 a gallon — down from $3.07 the prior year, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. That 10-cent drop saved the industry $1.6 billion. Fuel prices have since fallen further. United Airlines estimates it will pay $2.76 to $2.81 a gallon during the last three months of the year.
– Put another way: U.S. airlines burn through 311 million gallons of fuel in a week. Lower fuel prices are saving them $31 million a week."
(emphasis added)
Actually, we are not really interested here in the reasons why air fares keep rising, or how airlines have managed to keep them high and have been able to avoid passing their fuel savings on to consumers. Undoubtedly that would make for an interesting topic as well.

Sentiment on Stocks and Ratio Charts
Below is a brief update of a few stock market related data points we frequently discuss in these pages. Sentiment on stocks continues to be a mirror image of the gold market. Investor complacency is quite pronounced, to put it mildly.
The first chart shows Rydex ratios – with bear assets throughout 2014 stuck at historical lows, the bull-bear asset ratio has recently hit a new record high above the 20 level (i.e., 20 times more Rydex assets were invested in bull and sector funds than in bear funds). This is incidentally quite a distance from the (then) record highs set in February-March 2000.
The second chart shows HYG, the HYG-SPX ratio and the TLT-HYG ratio. The most important takeaway from this chart is that the underperformance of high yield bonds relative to big cap stocks has reached a new annual extreme. A history of past occurrences of this phenomenon was recently shown at Zerohedge. Obviously, the lead times are highly variable, so this is not a timing indicator, but it certainly is a warning.

A Touch of Paranoia Can't Hurt
Following the G-20 commitment to "fight climate change" (short-hand for: hike taxes and increase regulations, while exerting precisely zero influence on the climate – whereby this latter point may be the only good thing about it), the White House has come out with a tweet announcing its newest climate-related initiative. The tweet is informing us of the so-called "climate resilience toolkit" as follows:
Worth sharing: Here's a new toolkit to help communities respond to climate change → http://toolkit.climate.gov
We need a picture to go with that, don't we? Well, here you are. The picture provided by the WH reminds one not just of "global warming" – it looks more like "roasting in hell":
The picture accompanying the White House tweet on the "climate resilience toolkit".
(Photo credit: White House via Twitter.com)
Allow us to point out that the connection between modern-day forest fires and "climate change" is essentially zero – although admittedly, forest fires were not as frequent during the last ice age. On the other hand, if we still were in said ice age, we wouldn't have to worry about houses burning down, as there would be no human civilization to speak of. Instead a few ten thousand people would barely subside on hunting and gathering and hide out in caves. "Noble savages" though they would possibly be, we actually prefer civilization, which in terms of the climate is a result of the warmer temperatures we enjoy today (we hereby confirm that this information is hiding out in various history books).
However, the picture they chose says a lot about the mindset informing modern climate propaganda – it is mainly a fear-based meme, not different from the campaigns of countless doomsayers of yore. For a fairly comprehensive overview of the history of professional prophets of doom see "The End is Nigh". This is a well-worn profession people have always made money with – either provided by the gullible, or nowadays quite involuntarily by tax payers.
Jonathan Gruber Spawns Hashtags and Hilarious Videos
As a little addendum to our recent look at the arrogant, but surprisingly honest (in unguarded moments) government advisor Jonathan Gruber, we would note that he has by now spawned numerous Twitter hashtags. These range from the simple #Gruber, to #GruberGate, to #Grubered.
The latter specifically has probably a very good chance of becoming a widely used figure of speech (see conclusion for a practical application).
In addition, people have become busy putting together videos, making liberal use of the fact-checking powers of the inter-tubes. What have politicians said about Mr. Gruber in the past and what are they saying about him now?
Examples of then: "He's one of the best outside experts", "…using super-duper computer models and helping the CBO", "Most respected economist", etc.
Examples of "now": "Don't know who he is. He never helped us write any bill." "Some outside advisor, he never worked on our staff." "I completely disagree with him", "Errr….aaah", etc.
Here is an especially hilarious example of these videos that we felt we had to share with our readers:
Fun with GruberGate
Something bothered us when seeing and hearing the president assert that Gruber "expressed an opinion that…err…I comletely disagree with…wrrrs…in term of, of the voters…". A quick Google search of "how to spot when someone is lying" yields several indications that he didn't really mean it, chiefly among them "change of head position", "difficulty of actually speaking", "repetitiveness", "standing very still", "having an answer for everything", "not making eye contact", "odd micro-expressions", "pointing a lot" (note how Mr. Obama attempts to suppress this reflex but is still pointing up with his thumbs at the decisive moment).
Massacring Zulus
The Dow rose 13 points on Monday. Gold jumped $18.40 to settle at $1,201.90. Nothing to get too excited about. So we return to "The Secret of Success."
The Battle of Rorke's Drift was either a triumph for Western civilization or a bloody disaster, depending on how you look at it. The battle – which pitted British against Zulu – took place on January 22, 1879, in what is now South Africa.
The Zulus vastly outnumbered the British. The Brits had 150 men – including regular troops, colonial troops and some sick men who were in the hospital at the mission station of Rorke's Drift but who were able to fire a rifle. They faced between 3,000 and 4,000 Zulu warriors.
Did the battle show the world the secret to the West's success? Necessity may be the mother of invention. But Sir Garnet Wolseley, commander-in-chief of the British Army, didn't think it was worth a medal.
"It is monstrous making heroes of those who, shut up in buildings at Rorke's Drift, could not bolt, and fought like rats for their lives which they could not otherwise save," he said, commenting on the many awards given to the survivors.
But American military historian Victor Davis Hanson can hardly stop his chest from swelling when he reads accounts of the battle. "In the long annals of military history, it is difficult to find anything quite like Rorke's Drift," he writes, "where a beleaguered force, outnumbered 40 to 1, survived and killed 20 men for every defender lost."
Was that success? Dead Zulus and living white men?
Massacring Zulus at Rorke's Drift. The lesson: if your enemy brings spears to a gun fight, you probably win even if outnumbered greatly.

Missed Point
There are surely more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in our philosophy. If not, it's a pretty sorry world.
We report what we see… what we think… and our guesses about what it means and where it leads. Sometimes right. Sometimes wrong. Always in doubt.
Today, we write about something that was hidden in our new book, Hormegeddon. Something hidden from the author, that is.
When you write a book you are supposed to be the master of your subject. That is especially true when you've practically invented the subject. But then, along comes someone who says:
"Don't you see? You missed the most important point."
Pssst …

Bath and Falcons play out draw in France
ESPN Staff
August 14, 2013
Bath Rugby and the Newcastle Falcons played out a 21-21 draw in a pre-season friendly over in Beziers, France.
The pair will meet in the opening game of the Aviva Premiership on September 6 and it was Bath who took the lead when prop Anthony Perenise went over. New signing Anthony Watson then added another and with Tom Heathcote's pair of conversions, Bath took a 14-0 lead.
But Newcastle pinned them back in the second 40 with Ryan Shortland scoring for the Falcons with Noah Cato adding another. It was locked at 14-14 and Matt Banahan's intercept try looked to have won it for the visitors but Shortland scored at the death and with Phil Godman's conversion, the game finished 21-21.

renewing UK road tax while abroad
Has anyone experience about renewing road tax abroad?
(My bike doesn't need MOT until 2008).
The UK authorities only require Road Tax if the vehicle is used on UK roads. If it is abroad (even in the EU) there is no requirement that the vehicle be taxed. There is information confirming this on the DVLA website.
But don't forget to submit an SORN or they will start adding up the penalties. Also to renew the SORN a year later if out on a long trip.
The MOT is also only a UK thing and other countries do not require foreign registered vehicles to have their own similar local equivalent - but it might be an idea if you are confident about it's condition.
you can now renew road tax over the internet. But only if you have had 'new style' MOT (i.e. one which is logged on the computer database).
The problems come about when your MOT has also expired.
I left UK well over 12 months ago now. MOT ran out July of last year and TAX ran out August.
Consequently I assume my insurance is now invalid.
Though insurance is absolute pain also if you need/want to be out of country for over 6 months and/or you plan to travel outside of European Union. (both of which i am doing !)
It's a strange thing the TAX issue, technically speaking I believe to drive legally in European Union your vehicle should be insured/taxed/MOTd from your home country.
But, if your tax has expired while you are trouping around say Austria, who is going to prosecute you ? i.e. UK system or Austrian ?
In my experience whenever police or customs checks arise they have only (ONLY) ever been interested in seeing : Passport > Ownership papers > Insurance > Drivers licence. Never has TAX been an issue.
Thanks Phil and Tony,
I suppopse while I remain in Asia no one is going to say anything about my road tax.
But, it may be an insurance issue regarding travel and medical insurance that states the bike should be legal on the country of registration. The same applies, I think although I'm not sure, if you want to take to Australia.
Also there is the coming back. I will turn up in a year's time or so at Folkestone and, frankly it is easier to pay 90 quid now that having to pay fines and license penalties for riding a vehicle that should be out of the road. Or riding across Europe Uninsured to reach the UK, now that I think of it!
I may need to call the DVLA. I hate just the though of it!
I don't know if you've done a search on the archives but there was a thread on this a year or two back. It wasn't good news though. I seem to remember the conversation with the DVLA went something along the lines of:
(explains problem to DVLA official) "are you permanently exporting the vehicle"?,
"No, I want to keep it UK registered but it'll be out of the uk for more than a year"
"If you're not permanently exporting the vehicle then you must either SORN it or MOT /tax it"
"How can I MOT it if its out of the country?"
"Sorry, not our problem"
Somebody suggested that when you're returning you phone ahead and book an MOT appointment near home so that you can ride from the port.
Thanks all.
I just talked to the DVLA. And yes they don't have good news for you.
To renew your tax disc you need to fill in and send a form called the V10. With it include the original log book, a valid MOT and the certificate of insurance. about this one they said a print out its not valid, so I wonder what do I do because I'm insure by e-bike and its all done through the internet.
Surrendering the log book it's also a problem because it leaves you without papers for the bike. That means a lot of trouble if you are stopped and no crossing borders! They take tow weeks but warn that there can be delays. Add to that the time for the documents in the post.
If the vehicle is more than 12 moths out of the country the DVLA considers you have exported it and there is no way around it.
I asked if the vehicle can be declared off the road and I was told the bike have to be in the UK.
They even get patronising and tell you that you should have your documentation and tax sorted out for the duration of your trip... but this has to be what they think your trip should last, that is less than a year.
I'm annoyed, really.
Still if you had an experience like this, please, let me know what did you do or if you found a way around it.
Thank you.
here's what i'd do.
1) when tax runs out find internet cafe go online and declare bike SORN (which technically it is as you are not using on UK roads).
2) remove expired tax disc from bike and enjoy rest of your holiday.
3) couple days before returning either get a friend in UK or pick up 'phone yourself and book bike in for MOT at nearest garage to ferry port (probably easiest to find telephone number before leaving).
4) come home. MOT bike. If it passes go to nearest post office and re-tax (this will cancel the SORN automatically). If it fails. Ride home, if you get stopped you have a legitimate failure certificate allowing you to ride and if cops get funny coz of distance just explain exactly what you've done and they'll let you ride on home no worries.
Thanks a lot Phil!
I suppose I loose my sense of humor sometimes. Yo needed with DVLAs, carnet issuers and so on!
continuing from Phil above..
5) it still away a year later remember to again renew the SORN online.
I have looked in to this and when we start on the rtw trip that will last for about 3-4 years we have a reminder in the diary to get to an internet cafe to declair SORN. then worry about it when we get back. the only inconveniance is you have a 2 week window to declair it SORN online as it wont accept it before the 15th of the month of expire.
I suppose another way would be to leave completed SORN declarations (in the forms rack in UK Post Offices last time I looked) in envelopes for whoever remains behind in charge of your affairs to post at the appropriate time.
I was wondering if it would be practical to export it (ie fill in the tear off strip from the V5 and post it) as you leave the UK. Then you've got no UK worries about SORN or Road Tax while you are away. When you get back, book in for an MOT in your home town, drive there from the ferry and once MOT'd restart the procedures to import back into the UK. I know of one rider who's done this and he has been re-assigned his original registration number without a problem. I also met a car driver on the ferry recently who was bringing a car back from France. It had been exported 16 years ago and still had its UK plates as the import routine to France had never been completed. It was insured and he had arranged an MOT back in its home town of Cardiff. You would have to be very unlucky to be prosecuted when you can show you have done everything reasonable to comply with the regs.
I do wonder...
But, what sort of status you have while not registered in the UK?
And what papers of the bike do you keep? Do they make you send the DVLA log book back?
I dont think will be a good idea totrying to cross national borders with a bike that only have export papers!
Also, do you think they will charge you to re-import it?
You won't be charged to re-import it, but I guess there will be a registration fee (I think it's about £35)
My preferred option is to take a French registered bike. They don't have road tax in France and bikes don't need MOTs.
Thanks Paul,
its a bit too late for me. I'm in Central Asia already!

You definitely get what you pay for. Thin and chintzy looking
great value , good product ! love the way the hang and looks so good in my room
I ordered these curtins for my 9' tall sliding glass door in a spare bedroom. I got them in the chocolate brown and they are wonderful. They are light and airy, hang beautiflly and block out nearly all the light from the door. They have also helped keep the temperture in the room regulated. The curtins are really thin and not lned but I am extremely happy with them. I would keep in mind that the color you choose will be seen from the outside of the window. I am going to order them in a different color for my living room slider.
Great curtains. They were thinner than expected, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Totally black out the room that use to be impossible to dark (western facing windows). Chocolate color is very deep and nice.
I looked for affordable 120"' curtains for over a year. Found these while on vacation. They arrived a couple of days ago. Once ironed and hung they look Great. They are heavy enough to keep out the winter breeze, yet light enough to drap on the floor as I had hoped. The color is as stated. I will be looking for replacements for the summer.
the problem I had with this product is in the ordering description. I figure when you buy curtains, it comes with 2 pieces. in all the pictures, there are 2. now I have to order another one, which really sucks.
I love these curtains, they look beautiful and they block all sun!!!!!
The curtains look terrific in my bedroom. We have a tall ceilings and it is hard to find decent curtains for a reasonable price. These fit the bill and looks great.
Nice curtains for that touch of warmth to bedroom. Not heavy duty, simple weight. Color was exactly as described.
Based on the other reviews, I decided to purchase these drapes for the very tall windows in our baby's room. They came quickly and were just as advertised. I was very happy with our purchase.

Literary Hook: Poem: When snow holds us captive
By Christine Swanberg
Author and Poet
Looks like winter and snow are off to a good start this year. Here is a poem that investigates the ways we are held captive by the snow.
Listen to the Snow
The summer sedum slump, bedraggled by a bedlam of new snow,
snow so thick it bends the large lilacs and topples prairie grass.
At last, the city is perfectly quiet, its recent crime wave on hold,
snow a better antidote to violence than all the men with guns.
A blizzard brings out the best in neighbors. This minute, Anthony,
snow still falling gently on his blue parka, shovels the driveway
of our oldest resident, here on our quaint street where maples hold snow on their bare limbs. Everything is closed. We settle in,
reconfiguring our day to meet the snow's agenda. Today,
snow is the Boss of Everything: school, traffic, appointments,
meetings, choirs, trysts, operations, helicopters, vacations obey
snow's sweet command: Stop everything you are doing. Be still.
Adjust your entire day, so says the snow. Finish that book,
snow says. Be kind to your neighbors and pets. Fill the bird feeder.
Clear your desk. Call your mother. Write this poem. Learn to wait,
snow says. Listen to the glorious complete quiet of this day.
Tomorrow, when the city has done its best to rid the pestilence of
snow, when we've had enough of snowmen and hot chocolate,
tomorrow, when things get back to normal, whatever that may be,
snow's sweet quiet will linger for a moment, then melt into
the day's business as usual. But in your bones you know
snow transforms like a powerful meditation, a great reminder
that there's something to be said for that slow silence
snow bestows on anyone who cares to listen to the snow.

Arizona Cardinals
ESPN's John Clayton: Bucs quarterback Mike Glennon 'not ready for prime time'
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are turning to rookie quarterback Mike Glennon for their Week 4 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals Sunday, and that doesn't bode well for the Bucs, according to ESPN NFL Insider John Clayton.
"To make this move now, to me, is very curious," Clayton told Doug and Wolf on Arizona Sports 620 Friday. "Because when you looked at the preseason, Mike Glennon wasn't there. And even people who are watching him in the preseason say he's not ready for prime time at this stage.
"He's kind of statuesque, and that's not a real positive, in the pocket -- I mean he is kind of like a statue anyway when he throws."
Clayton cited Glennon's struggles in the preseason as well. The North Carolina State product completed just 47.1 percent (33-of-70) of his throws for 397 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions in four exhibition games.
There are other factors which Clayton believes will make things difficult for Glennon in his maiden NFL voyage.
"Has (Bucs head coach) Greg Schiano not looked at the injury list," he asked. "Vincent Jackson has not practiced this week. Also, Mike Williams has not practiced this week. There's a chance that one or two of those guys aren't going to be able to play.
"To put in a quarterback, who in his last preseason game completed 43 percent of his passes? Very curious."
When the Bucs made the move earlier this week, Arizona head coach Bruce Arians said he thought it gave the Cardinals an advantage.
Glennon replaces Josh Freeman, who became Tampa Bay's starting quarterback during his rookie season in 2009 and has compiled a 24-35 record in his career.
