Writing in Mises Daily today, Hunter Lewis exposes the rather dubious use of historical economic data by Thomas Piketty in his popular new book Capital in the Twenty-first Century:
[His chart on wealth vs. economic growth] is astonishing for many reasons. First of all, it suggests that capital earned a 4.5 percent or higher return for the years 0-1800 C.E. This is a crazy number. If the human race had started out with only $10 in year 1 and compounded it at 4.5 percent a year for any series of 1,800 years, by now we would have much, much more than a trillion times the entire world's wealth today, which is estimated at $241 trillion by Credit Suisse.
The 4.5 percent or higher number is also crazy because Piketty is right that there was negligible economic growth prior to the industrial revolution, and such high returns for the rich are just not consistent with so little growth. The truth is that rich people for most of those years were interested in spending or hiding their wealth, not in investing it, because wealth out in the open was likely to be stolen, if not by bandits, then by government.
If you look closely at the more modern part of the chart and ignore the projection into an unknown future, you will see that the lines do not support Piketty's thesis. His idea that the rich will always necessarily get richer relative to everyone else under capitalism is not supported by the data he presents.

Yes, I'm guilty......My dogs get a present to chew/play with around the tree on Christmas day....along with that, we keep a can of the "good stuff" that they like, in the pantry, just for special occasions, when they may be ill, and such...well, I just can't sit around eating all that "special type human food" without feeling that I'm leaving out my pets.....so, I do break out the can of the "good stuff" to give to them....and yep, if they eat it all up, I'll open another.....now, with everyone's bellies full, I also end up being the one to let them out to tend to business from bellies full of that canned food.

From Green Right Now Reports
In another sign that the world's elite motor cars are becoming greener, Porsche today announced that its dealers will begin taking customer orders for the plug-in hybrid 918 Spyder.
The next-generation super car, first shown at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, will feature a high revving 500-plus horsepower V8 engine assisted by two electric motors with a total of at least 218 horsepower. Porsche estimates it will consume only 3.0 L/100 km based on the New European Driving Cycle (EPA fuel economy figures or estimates will be announced later).
But don't plan on standing in any lines to get one. To ensure the 918 Spyder's worldwide exclusivity, the auto company said it will produce no more than 918 cars and the U.S. base retail price will be $845,000 (excluding destination and handling charges). Porsche plans to begin production at its factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen in September, 2013.
Porsche said the car's design is inspired by past Porsches such as the Carrera GT super sports car, the 917 and highly successful RS Spyder race cars. Unlike the concept car, the two-seat production version, based on a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic monocoque, will feature a manual roof system with removable panels that can be stored in the front luggage compartment.
Porsche said the 918 Spyder will be powered by a plug-in hybrid system that will include a high-revving, mid-mounted V8 engine with capacity of more than 4.0 liters and producing at least 500 horsepower. The engine will be based on the Porsche RS Spyder racing engine. Two electric motors – one each on the front and rear axles – together will provide approximately 218 additional horsepower. This configuration also will offer an innovative, variable all-wheel drive system with independent control of the drive forces on both axles.
Electrical energy will be stored in a liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery that can be recharged from a standard household outlet. Electric-only driving range is expected to be more than 16 miles. Recharge time will depend on each country's electrical power network, but charging is expected to take about seven hours at 110V/10A in the United States. A quick-charge option is being evaluated to further reduce charging times.

Hey hey, just throwing this post up here in case there are any other dedicated Dominion players out there (No Classic!!). We have a group of 3-4 players that personally do pretty well, but always seem to get paired with... less than adequate teammates. We're all Lvl 30, use skype and have solid understanding of how to play Dominion.
Our general playtimes are between 9-Midnight Eastern time.
We are by no means hardcore elitest players... just friends who enjoy playing casually and would like some more people to round out a team.
Respond on here or send a message to Aebrams in-game if you're interested.
Senior Member
look me up anytime.
Will do, any other takers?!
Count me in. Perhaps we could even sign up for that Monday night tournament. It seems pretty casual right now and some extra RP is always nice
Edit: will be on at 9 est tonight. Hope to see you there.
u can add me, if i am around and can play, i will
but been soooooooo busy recently
You can add me if you like. We have a group of 5 that play tues and thurs, but also play solo/duo sporadically throughout the week.

The first trailer for Tony Scott's remake of The Taking Of Pelham 123 is now online.
It sees John Travolta's naughty criminal take an entire train carriage hostage beneath the streets of New York.
Denzel Washington is the unlucky transit schlub who gets roped into dealing with the gun-toting mystery man as a race to pay a ransom ensues.
You can get your first glance at the footage at the film's official site .
What do we think? It's loaded with car crashes – Scott clearly can't get enough of the jumping, spinning cars this time around.
And is it just us, or does John Travolta very occasionally sound like Dr Evil – particularly when he first holds up the train driver.
We're really not convinced this was worth remaking the 1974 cult classic for, but let's wait and see the whole thing when it hits cinemas this July.
Unless we already have with the trailer…

On Easter, voices of hope across New Hampshire
Irene Fisher, 3, of Marlborough, holds a sign of spring. (MEGHAN PIERCE/Union Leader Correspondent)
Their faith, their families and their fellow man: In a world that can sometimes seem hopeless, this is where many Granite Staters say they find hope.
For Christians, the Easter story itself is one of redemption and hope triumphing over sin and despair. So it's not surprising that many believers say their hope lies in their faith.
John Hilman of Rochester says he finds hope in his "relationship with God through Jesus Christ."
"Homes, jobs, and freedom and liberty can all be lost. To place one's hopes in anything Earthly is not logical to me," he wrote in response to a survey posted on unionleader.com.
Hilman knows what it's like to lose such things. A computer software engineer, he was laid off in 2007 when his employer merged with another company and laid off the entire staff.
Then Hilman suffered an aneurism in January 2012, which led to bleeding in his brain and surgery. It took months of rehabilitation before he could return to work, and his disability payments didn't cover expenses for his family of five.
They lost their house to foreclosure and their cars to repossession. "It was crazy," he said in an interview.
Yet he still has hope and an abiding faith, Hilman said. "With everything that's happened, the one thing that I still hold onto is this really isn't it. Life isn't really your final destination. Life is more just a journey to your final destination.
"I know that God is there," he said. "I know He's with me, and I know He has plans. And I know that in the end, when I die, that's where I'll be. That's what gives me hope."
He's not alone.
Kathy Masse of Manchester says she finds hope in "the resurrection of Jesus."
"It proves that He was the son of God. He preached a world of love and compassion," she said. "And the resurrection gives us the hope of something better, especially eternal life."
"Our hope is found in Jesus Christ alone," Suzanne McCutcheon of Rochester wrote in the online survey.
"Easter is about the rising of Christ after He was tortured and killed by man," she said. "It is not about bunnies and eggs, as this world has turned it into. There is still hope, there always will be because He is still here and always will be."
Jeremy Collins (left) of Newton finds hope "just by looking at the people around me and learning from their example."
"When you stop and really get a good look at the brighter side of humanity instead of focusing on the bad side, it will always make you hopeful for the future," he said. "Most people are generally good."
Likewise, Bob Shouse (right) of Portsmouth says he finds hope "in the spirit of my fellow man."
"I think in general mankind is optimistic, and with optimism there is hope," he said. "The sun will come up tomorrow, and one can always start over again, typically."
Paul Mallory of Bedford says he finds hope in the happiness of his wife and two sons. "I could very easily dwell and ruminate on the negatives that I don't have any control over, or I can choose to learn to live now," he said. "Not in the past or the future, but now.
"And right now in my life, I derive a lot of happiness from Donna, Jesse and Zachary."
Alex Knuuttenen (left) of Dover is hopeful about humanity. "No matter how bad the economy gets or how bad the world's problems are, I think we're smart enough to solve them.
"I myself have found that the happier I am, the happier I can help make the world. So just knowing that we're smart enough and generally good enough, as humans, to make things good again always gives me hope."
Luna Hardaker (right) of Epping says she looks to nature for hope, especially in springtime.
"Just the life, the flowers, the plants growing," she said. "There has been a lot of snow this winter, so it is refreshing to see the flowers starting to bloom."
Robin Healey of Sanbornville does not put her hope in human beings, who can fail and disappoint, or in material possessions, which can be lost. Instead, she said, "I find hope in sharing God's love with others."
"I find hope in His goodness, which is unchanging ... and His mercies, which are new every morning. I find hope in His perfect love, which casts out all fear," she said. "Last but certainly not least, I find hope in His gift of salvation ... freedom from death, freedom from my past — and even from my future."
Kristine Moulton of Auburn says her young son inspires her: "Just looking at him and seeing my husband and I both in him. Looking forward to the future and what's to come for him. That gives me hope."

"Can I have a translated version?"
No, her accent isn't that bad but her comedic timing is. While quite a bit of what Ms. Rivenbark says is quite funny, she gives no pause for you to assimilate and laugh before she's on to the next bit. A better narrator would have made this much more enjoyable but as it is, it takes less than 15 minutes before total frustration sets in and it gets turned off.
"Funny enough"
I laughed at her humor a lot. but the book was more of a humor column in a paper than a book.
A plot?
It was her book, so she knew where to put emphasis. I like that.
"How close is the next gas station???"
It is one of those that I reload to listen to. This happens to be a rare quality with books for me. Once I have read/ listened to a book, it takes something magical for me to reread/ reload a book.
I enjoyed the "Perfect Attendance" story since I am a school teacher in a school that strongly promotes "perfect attendance." So it hit home. I also enjoyed the Christmas story. I laughed so hard during that one.
Yes, I just love the narration!
I enjoyed the "Perfect Attendance" story since I am a school teacher in a school that strongly promotes "perfect attendance." So it hit home. I also enjoyed the Christmas story. I laughed so hard during that one.
I listen to my audiobooks while driving in my car. I drive three hours to Memphis on a regular basis. I chose this book because I have read the print version of other books by her. I was laughing so hard, I was looking for the next gas station.
"Slow down. You're makin my head hurt."
The narrator was painful to listen to. Don't know when she stopped to breathe.
I have read a book by her before and thoroughly enjoyed her quirky humor. Hearing her fly through reading the story was not my cup of tea. Honestly made my head spin. Ruined the story and the humor for me.
Nope, can't listen to that voice speed racing through a story again. Painful.
Anyone with a slow, easy southern drawl would have been better. Really...anyone.
"A Very Funny Book"
One of the top Picks.
She has a great way of telling her story. You feel like you were there.
"Difficult to understand and not worth the effort"
I was looking forward to listening to this book but was immediately put off by the narration. Read by the author, who in the first 5 minutes was carried away several times by the cleverness or humour of her writing that I could not share, because of the shrillness and accent and speed of her delivery. By 8 minutes in I was also annoyed with the content I could fathom and turned it off. I shall not try again.

UCF starts football camp already among AAC elite
The UCF Knights begin their second season in the American Athletic Conference among the league's elite programs.
UCF is coming off a season in which the Knights not only won the AAC title, but beat Baylor in the Fiesta Bowl to cap off a 12-1 season and finish in the top 10 of the final AP poll.
Combine that with Louisville and Rutgers leaving the AAC, and it's easy to see why UCF has quickly become one of the conference's most recognizable teams.
Most watched: Orphaned bobcat gets unique treatment
Offensive lineman Joey Grant said Friday at the team's media day that, "The more conference championships we win, the more that will be true."
The Knights return nine starters on defense and expect to be title contenders again this year.

A person or nation or species are requested or commanded to breed.
God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth."An authority figure exhorts an individual or group thusly: "Make with the Baby-Making!" This may simply be a formal request or plea, or a full-on commandment involving Mandatory Motherhood. In extreme cases of the latter, it can also intersect with Mate or Die. It can be delivered to a person or couple to produce a Spare To The Throne, or the next stage of a Super Breeding Program; or a group such as a Breeding Cult or an entire nation that needs to recover from The Plague or a Near Villain Victory by an Omnicidal Maniac. After all, nobody wants a Childless Dystopia. (Well, almost nobody.) In the case of deities, this can extend to entire species and biological systems. Compare I Want Grandkids, which may involve this, but is usually more along the lines of hinting and suggesting. Contrast Population Control. If you thought this was about the euphemism for a rather vulgar way to dismiss someone, try Bowdlerise.

Posts Tagged: Bohart Museum of Entomology
The Perfect Gift
You know she likes stiletto Jimmy Choo shoes and anything that begins with a "D" for designer clothes and shoes and "E" for expensive. She's seen The World's Most Expensive Stilettos and dreams of stilettos by Stuart Weitzman and Borgezie that run as high as $3 million. (They run that high, but you can't run in them.)
But apparel won't last as long as the gift that the Bohart Museum of Entomology, UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology, is dangling in front of us.
Ready for this? A stiletto fly. Genus: Agapophytus. It needs a species name. If you'd like to adopt it and own the naming rights, you can--with a sponsorship that will help the Bohart Museum's research.
Shaun Winterton of the California Department of Food and Agriculture, a Bohart associate, collected the stiletto fly (below) in western Australia and photographed it.
"'O sole mio!" Deep in the heart of our soul (sole?), we know it's better than designer shoes.
A little information on the Stiletto fly from Winterton:
Common name: Stiletto fly
Family Therevidae
Origin: Western Australia: Golden Bay beach dunes
Describer: Shaun L. Winterton
Wrote Winterton: "This new species of Agapophytus in the family Therevidae has been found in the coastal heathland and beach fore-dunes of Western Australia, north of the city of Perth. The genus is known only from Australia and Papua New Guinea and currently includes about 40 known species, with about as many still to be formally named. The stiletto fly family includes many brightly colored species in Australia, many of which are mimics of wasps or ants. This species is unusual in being relatively small in body size, with a polished black body and yellow halters. Larvae of this family are snake-like predators in the sand dunes, swimming through the loose sand using vibrations to home in on prey."
Lynn Kimsey, director of the Bohart Museum of Entomology and a UC Davis proessor of entomology, launched the Bohart's biolegacy program, which is similar to the International Star Registry. "For a sponsorship of $2500, you will be able to select a species you would like to name in honor of a loved one or in respect for a community member," she said. "For your sponsorship, we will name a species after you or someone special to you. Sponsors will also be given a high resolution photography of their namesake, framed with the title page of the naming publication."
Unlike the Star Registry Program, though, the official species name "will be published in a scientific journal read by many in the international scientific community and available to everyone in perpetuity."
So, the Bohart Museum staff and scientists need your help. They describe as many as 15 new species annually "and our associates, many more."
"We could use your help with the selection of new species names in the course of our research," said Kimsey, who can be reached at email@example.com or (530) 752-0493.
The Bohart Museum, home of nearly eight million specimens collected from throughout the world, joins a number of international organizations that offer species-naming opportunities.
Sponsorships help support museum research, in addition to offering a personal permanent legacy.
Can't you just see it? At a holiday gathering, your friend who has everything is asked what she received.
"Stiletto," she says.
"Omigosh, you got stilettos! Jimmy Choo? Who? Who?"
"No, this stiletto is a fly. And it's all mine. It's named after me!"
Shaun Winterton of the California Department of Food and Agriculture, an associate of the Bohart Museum, collected this stiletto fly, genus Agapophytus, and photographed it. It now needs a name. (Shaun Winterton Photo)

Eighteen Myths About Insects and Spiders
It was a fun and educational afternoon when the UC Davis Bohart Museum of Entomology hosted an open house last Sunday.
Visitors checked out the displays, asked the entomologists and staff questions, and looked over the list of myths.
Yes, there are a lot of myths.
We'll share! (Ask the person next to you if he/she can answer them. No fair peeking at the answers)
1. Butterflies and moths can't fly if you rub the scales of their wings.
Answer: Not true, they can fly.
2. Black widow females eat the males after mating.
Answer: Only if the male isn't fast enough.
3. Chiggers burrow under your skin and suck your blood.
Answer: False. Chiggers simply feed and leave, like mosquitoes.
4. Brown recluse spiders are common in California, biting many people.
Answer: Brown recluse spiders are not found anywhere near California.
5. Ultrasonic devices help keep pests out of your kitchen.
Answer. False. Few insects can hear, certainly not cockroaches.
6. Camel spiders scream like babes, inject toxins and prey on GI's in Iraq.
Answer: Not true at any level.
7. Mosquitoes transmit HIV.
Answer: They cannot transmit HIV under any circumstances.
8. Earwigs crawl into your ear and lay eggs in your brain.
Answer. They sometime do crawl in ears by accident, but do not lay eggs.
9. Bedbugs bore, burrow, dig and fly.
Answer: No, they can only walk or scurry.
10. Insects don't feel pain.
Answer: Probably true; their nervous systems are too limited, any injury would probably kill them.
11. It is illegal to catch preying mantids and monarchs.
Answer: There are no laws against this.
12. Twenty-five percent of the protein in our diet is from swallowing spiders that crawl in our mouths at night.
Answer: This never happens.
13. Love bugs that plague the southeastern United States are the result of government experiments.
Answer: No, Mother Nature came up with this.
14. Ten percent of the weight of your pillow is house dust mites.
Answer: False. House dust mites are found only in coastal southeastern United States.
15. All bees die after stinging.
Answer: False. Only worker honey bees die after stinging.
16. Ticks must be removed by rotating them clockwise.
Answer: False. Just pull the tick straight out.
17. "Daddy long legs" are deadly, but their jaws are too small to bite humans.
Answer: False. Their venom is no more poisonous than most spiders.
18. Copper pennies cure bee stings.
Answer. No, it just doesn't work.
The Bohart Museum of Entomology, directed by Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology, is open to the public Mondays through Thursdays (except holidays). It is located in Room 1124 of the Academic Surge Building on Crocker Lane (corner of LaRue and Crocker). It is home to nearly eight million insect specimens, plus a live "petting zoo" (think Madagascar hissing cockroaches, walking sticks and tarantulas) and a year-around gift shop filled with T-shirts, jewelry, insect collecting equipment, posters, books and insect-themed candy.

Myths and Gifts
When the UC Davis Bohart Museum of Entomology hosts its open house from 1 to 4 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 23, the theme will be "Insect Myths." (Okay, and spider myths, too!)
You'll learn about honey bee, ladybug, butterfly and spider myths at this family-oriented event, which is free and open to the public.
The insect museum located in Room 1124 of the Academic Surge Building on Crocker Lane, is not only the home of nearly 8 million insect specimens, but it operates a live "pettting zoo" (Madagascar hissing cockroaches, walking sticks and tarantulas) and a year-around gift shop filled with T-shirts, jewelry, posters, books, bug-collecting equipment and insect-themed candy, including chocolate-dipped scorpions, crunchy crickets, and protein-rich lollipops.
Another popular book, published in 2013, is a 35-page children's book, The Story of the Dogface Butterfly, authored by entomologist Fran Keller, who this year received her doctorate in entomology from UC Davis. She is a researcher, college instructor, mentor, artist, photographer, and author.
The book, geared for kindergarten through sixth-grade classrooms, and also a favorite of adults, tells the untold story of the California dogface butterfly (Zerene eurydice), and how a classroom successfully mounted a campaign to name it the California state insect. Illustrations by artist Laine Bauer, a UC Davis graduate, and photographs by naturalist Greg Kareofelas, a Bohart Museum volunteer, depict the life cycle of this butterfly and show the host plant, false indigo (Amorpha californica). Net proceeds from the sale of this book are earmarked for the education, outreach and research programs at the Bohart Museum.
Gift shop items are available both in the store (Monday through Thursday) and online, http://www.bohartmuseum.com/.
Among the favorites gifts at the Bohart Museum:
- T-shirts depicting images of dragonflies, butterflies, beetles and moths
- Bohart Museum coffee mug
- Insect collecting net
- Posters of butterflies of Central Californian, Dragonflies of California, and the California Dogface butterfly
- Butterfly habitat
- Jewelry depicting bees, butterflies, dragonflies and ladybugs (many of the boxes are engraved with the Bohart logo and treasured)
- Science kits
- Insect and spider books
- Insect magnets
The Bohart Museum, directed by Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology at UC Davis, is open to the public from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays. It is closed to the public on Fridays and on major holidays. Admission is free. More information is available by contacting the Bohart Museum at (530) 752-0493 or Tabatha Yang, education and outreach coordinator at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Bohart Museum Open House: Insect Myths!
Worker bees are males, right?
Butterflies and moths can't fly if you rub the scales off their wings, right?
Earwigs crawl into your ears and then into your brain, right?
Wrong. They're all widely known but falsely held beliefs.
What better place to learn about insect myths than the UC Davis Bohart Museum of Entomology, home of nearly eight million insect specimens? An open house is scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m., Sunday, Nov. 23, in Room 1124 of the Academic Surge building, Crocker Lane.
The Bohart folks will dispel scores of myths, including these:
- Brown recluse spiders are found in California
- Daddy long-leg spiders are very venomous, but their mouths are too small to bite us.
- We swallow/eat a significant amount of spiders/insects in our sleep.
The open house is free and open to the public, and family friendly.
Directed by Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology at UC Davis, the insect museum is also the home of the seventh largest insect collection in North America, and the California Insect Survey, a storehouse of the insect biodiversity.
Special attractions include a live "petting zoo," featuring Madagascar hissing cockroaches, walking sticks and tarantulas. Visitors are invited to hold the insects and photograph them. In addition, face painting will be among the family-oriented activities. Think bugs!
Visitors can also browse the gift shop, which includes T-shirts, sweatshirts, books, jewelry, posters, insect-collecting equipment and insect-themed candy. (Gifts can also be purchased online.)
The Bohart Museum's popular open houses are in addition to its regular weekday hours, from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays. It is closed to the public on Fridays and on major holidays. Admission is free.

Cellar spider wrapping a honey bee. How many myths do you know about spiders? (Photo by Kathy Keatley Garvey)
Spiders? Scary? Spooky?
A sure-fire way to frighten arachnophobics is the very mention of "spiders"--especially on Halloween.
Spiders aren't insects but arthropods, order Araneae. They have eight legs, which according to some, are seven legs too many. They are also distinguished by their chelicerae with fangs that inject venom.
You've seen them. Black widow spiders. Jumping spiders. Crab spiders. Garden spiders.
If you fear them, there's a name for that fear: Arachnophobia. Wikipedia says that "People with arachnophobia tend to feel uneasy in any area they believe could harbor spiders or that has visible signs of their presence, such as webs. If arachnophobics see a spider, they may not enter the general vicinity until they have overcome the panic attack that is often associated with their phobia. Some people scream, cry, have trouble breathing, have excessive sweating or even heart trouble when they come in contact with an area near spiders or their webs. In some extreme cases, even a picture or a realistic drawing of a spider can also trigger fear."
So many myths about spiders. The Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, University of Washington, Seattle, has posted some of the myths, misconceptions and superstitions on its website.
The general fallacies, as listed by Rod Crawford, curator of arachnids:
General Fallacies
- Spiders are insects.
- "Arachnid" is just a fancy name for spider.
- You can always tell a spider because it has eight legs.
- All spiders make webs.
- The orb web (round or "geometric" web) is a "normal" spider web.
- A "daddy-longlegs" is a kind of spider.
- Most spiders could not bite humans because their fangs are too small.
- Any spider species can be found anywhere.
- All spiders are male.
- Spiders are most numerous in late summer.
- You are never more than three feet from a spider.
- Spiders "suck the juices" of their prey, and do not literally eat it.
- Spiders don't stick to their own webs because their feet are oily.
Meanwhile, over at the Bohart Museum of Entomology at the University of California, Davis, plans are underway for an open house themed "Insect Myths." They will focus on spider myths, too.
The event, free and open to the public, is set for Sunday, Nov. 23 from 1 to 4 p.m. in Room 1124 of the Academic Surge Building on Crocker Lane, off LaRue Road. Directed by Lynn Kimsey, professor of entomology at UC Davis, the museum houses a global collection of nearly eight million specimens and is the home of the seventh largest insect collection in North America, and the California Insect Survey, a storehouse of the insect biodiversity. The museum is open to the public four days a week, Monday through Thursday (9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m.) but it sponsors special weekend open houses as well.
The remaining schedule:
- Sunday, Nov. 23: "Insect Myths," 1 to 4 p.m.
- Saturday, Dec. 20: "Insects and Art," 1 to 4 p.m.
- Sunday, Jan. 11: "Parasitoid Palooza," 1 to 4 p.m.
- Sunday, Feb. 8: "Biodiversity Museum Day," noon to 4 p.m.
- Saturday, March 14: "Pollination Nation," 1 to 4 p.m.
- Saturday, April 18: UC Davis Picnic Day, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
- Sunday, May 17: "Name That Bug! How About Bob?" 1 to 4 p.m.
- Saturday, July 18: "Moth Night," 8 to 11 p.m.
When you attend the Bohart Museum open houses, you'll probably have the opportunity to hold and/or photograph "Rosie," a 24-year-old tarantula. It's one of the critters in the live "petting zoo," which also includes Madagascar hissing cockroaches, millipedes and walking sticks./h3>/span>

For the Love of the Game
I was planning on doing some work last week to publish a couple of articles, but with my younger brother in town, whom I haven't seen in three years, I decided to just take the week off and spend that time with him. It was a good thing I did. He left on Saturday. On Sunday, the government called him to inform him he was being reactivated and was being deployed overseas effective immediately.
This, of course, made no sense to me. Why is the government reactivating reservists and sending them overseas?
He has no idea where he's going or when. He was just given a time frame to get his affairs in order. He's being deployed for two years overseas.
Nice little surprise to drop into our laps after Christmas. The silver lining here is that we got that Christmas week to spend together before the government intervened in our lives.
It's quite odd, actually. On Sunday, I had pulled out a tin of letters my grandfather had kept from World War I and World War II. I had read the letters from an uncle that served in WWI in France. He wrote as if no one was receiving his letters. He wrote of his missions and the things he had seen.
I read the letters my great-grandmother wrote to my great-great grandmother during WWII. She told stories of my grandfather serving in France and how my baby cousin looked exactly like my great-uncle. This was years before my father was even born.
I don't know what drew me to those letters yesterday, but today, I read text after text from my brother on how he's being deployed overseas. I think something in me knew the way the fate cards were landing in the universe and that's what drew me to the letters.
I was in awe that many of the letters I held in my hands were over 100 years old. The letters during WWI are closing in on 100 years old. Many of the letters I held were from 1892-1911. These are the letters that survived and were passed down from generation to generation. The photographs…the letters…and the little trinkets my uncle from WWI collected and put in a leather case with his initials on it. These are memories of our family…memories of how the Scots served their country and the pride they had by enlisting and not waiting for the draft…just like every male child has done in our line.
I've been thinking a lot today of how my struggles with existence and God continue. Yesterday's conversation with God returned to how a dream of having a family of my own never came to fruition. I had to give up the dream. The very next day I realize that I may lose the only family I have left. God is taking him away from me and who knows if he'll make it permanent so I can feel what it truly means to be alone without a family.
One of my resolutions for 2014 is to journal more so I can really sort out what is going on inside of me. Journals are great for letting yourself cry…and figuring out what your next step is going to be. When I wrote my 18 things I was afraid to publish, that was just the synopsis. The journal is meant for me to dive further inside of myself so that I can move on.
The last time I journaled was when I had my last broken heart. So it seems befitting that I picked up a journal again because apparently "How can you mend a broken heart?" keeps playing on my playlist randomly. You know…the Bee Gees and Al Green versions? Those songs keep playing again and again…and various other mopey broken hearted songs. You also know it's bad when Sarah McLachlan is playing too.
Over these past few years, I've said again and again I don't know why I ended up in hockey writing. I know now why I ended up in hockey writing.
I was reading Book 4 in "The Mortal Instruments" series and I read Clare's mother's comments on what we do for love. When we are in love, we try to do what that person does. We try to become a part of that dynamic of the things they love. We go where they go because it's an opportunity to be near to them.
When we are in love, we go to where that person is in order to be close to them…to be with them…to see them.
I ended up in hockey writing because I had fallen in love. I had fallen for someone that God kept pointing out to me again and again. This guy was totally not my type. I could care less for what he means to everybody else. I could care even less how much money he makes. I fell in love with some guy God kept pointing out to me. I had fallen in love with the hopes of a dream coming true…
The key phrase here is that I had fallen in love with the HOPE that my dream would come true…to marry the one and have a family of my own.
I let go of that dream last April when I came out of retirement, sat down in that press box and cried. I embraced the reality of the situation…the dream never came true, nor was it ever going to come true. It was this reality that broke my heart.
I asked my brother if there was something wrong with me. He told me there was nothing wrong with me. He said that perhaps I had believed in a dream for so long that I had set my sights too high that I was not seeing all of these other guys looking my way. He remarked on all of the guys at my office that seem to show interest in me. He said that over the week he had been with me, he had noticed all of these guys looking my way with interest, but I walked right by them without even looking their way. I didn't even acknowledge their existence.
He told me that I should set my standards a little lower, but not so low that it would take away from who I am. Just set the bar a little lower and take time to notice what I am attracting to me.
So that's why the love for the game and everything surrounding it is gone. I got into hockey because I had fallen in love. Now I'm asking myself how I can mend that broken heart. You know that feeling when your heart has been broken and you want nothing to do with that world you had fallen in love with? That feeling that you want nothing more to do with your ex? You don't want to see them. You don't want to go anywhere where they are going to be. That's how I feel.
So after writing everything down in my journal, crying tears and the cat looking up at me with great sorrow in her eyes trying to console me (she really is in tune with my emotions as of late), I flipped to a page in my journal of one of those inspiration boards I found on Pinterest about LIFE. The one that stuck out to me was "Forgive even when it's hard."
I cried when I read that (not like I wasn't already crying). I wrote at the end of my journal entry "Forgive God even when it's hard."
I think we all come to that point in our lives where it feels like God has forsaken us, that he issued the greatest disappointment we have ever been dealt. This is the stuff that makes believers into non-believers because they are so angry with God. But I've experienced many amazing things in life. I know that the time to truly turn to God is when I've lost faith in Him…and I realize just how much I've asked of him. Sometimes I realize that God doesn't always deliver to us what we want especially if you're asking him to move the fucking moon and the stars for you to make your dream come true.
Sometimes you have to realize that you shouldn't ask for the impossible.
I meditated after I wrote my journal entry last night. I poured out what was going on inside and God's answer was to go back to the beginning (a theme I've heard over and over again for the last year). This time, the focus was on who I was.
Way back when, back when I made the covenant with God, I filled up my bank with good deeds. I did God's work, expecting nothing in return. I kept saying that my reward was coming later. I was saving up my good deeds for something special.
Since then, I've had a very privileged life ever since I decided what I wanted out of life and that I wasn't going to suffer to be happy. That had a lot to do with moving to NYC and getting a job that took care of me. I've had a great life in that regard. It's afforded me freedom to do the things I've always wanted to do.
But while I was cashing in on a better life, I tried to continue the good works, but the passion to save the world went to the wayside. Even in that wish to save humanity or the Earth, it can break your heart every single second.
I decided to share my wealth in a variety of ways. During the holidays, I give much more than is asked of me, especially to children who wouldn't even see a Christmas if it weren't for the generosity of others. There are numerous children's charities I give to every month. I even give to animal welfare charities.
I share that wealth not with adults that are responsible for their own fates, I give to those innocents that are forgotten and have no one. The homeless on the street make a choice to be there. There are ways to save yourself. But the children and animals are a different story. They need us. They can't help themselves. They can't go out and get a job to take care of themselves. They need the help of others above anyone else.
Those are the ones I share my compassion and wealth God has afforded to me. The rich have a secret…charity brings you greater wealth. But imagine the wealth you bring into your life when you give without expecting anything in return. If you make a conscious effort to continuously do good for those who need God in that moment, you're earning your own treasure…payment for the work you're doing that you can save up for a later date. Trust me, doing good works has its own rewards in every aspect of life that you could use a little something amazing.
A lot of people do this already. They do good, knowing that God will reward them later when they need it the most. These are also the same people that know that it costs you when you do bad deeds. It deplenishes your good deeds bank account very quickly. Life is about balance. If you want an amazing life, you tip the 'good' scale in your favor. What a horrible life? Tip the 'bad' side in your favor.
God's answer to me has been to do service. To do good deeds, expecting nothing in return so that I can bank up for the future. This also includes love…give love without expecting any love in return. You do this for others, not for you. You give so that you may help others, not so that you can help yourself.
This is what it means for me to go back to the beginning. Sometimes in service you can learn to forgive God for disappointing you and destroying a dream that meant your entire existence…it's by working hard doing the good things in life that we can find forgiveness…no matter how hard it is to come by.
I'm going to close with a story on one of the many reasons why I chose to help children and animals…it was something I learned while I was in Morocco…to help those who cannot help themselves. But it was the story of this photo of a vulture stalking a child that reminded me why I care so much and why something like this story reminds me of why I want to return to Africa.

By 2060, the Americas are projected to have a larger population than China, so shouldn't we direct more attention to our southern neighbors?
Venezuelan President Rómulo Betancourt and U.S. President John F. Kennedy at La Morita, Venezuela, during an official meeting for the Alliance for Progress in 1961 / WikiMedia
A great nation defines itself not by what it fears and opposes but by what it believes in and champions. This year is the 50th anniversary of the Alliance for Progress, President Kennedy's visionary effort to promote social justice and economic development in Latin America. The Alliance had a short ten-year life, but its influence was real, and its vision of the Americas is still relevant today.
The Alliance was a wager on the capacity of progressive democratic governments to carry out a peaceful revolution with the help of political support and carefully designed economic assistance.
The idea for the Alliance grew from my uncle's capacity to listen to the leaders of Latin America, and from his openness to what he heard. The leaders said, "The United States in all its power and wealth and influence should be our partner as we build a more just society for all our citizens." They added, "This partnership must be built on respect for the values and vision of the southern hemisphere." John Kennedy took their arguments seriously.
In launching the Alliance, he built on the work of Douglas Dillon, who in 1958 had attended a three-week meeting in Brazil as a State Department employee. Dillon was impressed by Latin America leaders, particularly those from Brazil and Mexico, who were urging a new coffee agreement and a new development bank for the Americas. He eventually prevailed on President Eisenhower to take up the cause and to create the Inter-American Development Bank. He also piqued the interest of the Democratic presidential candidate from Massachusetts.
As Arthur Schlesinger recounts it, Senator Kennedy read a memorandum from ten leading Latin American economists, and, impressed with the urgency and energy of their ideas, conceived of a new approach to inter-American development.
He had an idea but no name.
Sitting in the campaign bus as it rolled across Texas, Dick Goodwin, his speechwriter, groped for a phrase that would express what the "Good Neighbor Policy" did for Franklin Roosevelt. As he pondered, his eye caught the title of a Spanish language magazine, Alianza. He liked that, but then the question was, Alliance for what? A call was placed to Ernesto Betancourt, then at the Pan American Union, who had two suggestions: Alianza para el Desarollo (development) and Alianza para el Progresso. That's how the Alliance was christened.
Once he was elected, my uncle asked Douglas Dillon, a Republican, to serve as treasury secretary. (My brother Douglas was named for him.) It's worth noting that at its beginning, the Alliance for Progress had strong bipartisan support.
In his inaugural address, the new president proclaimed his vision for the Americas: "To our sister republics south of our border, we offer a special pledge: to convert our good words into good deeds in a new alliance for progress, to assist free men and free governments in casting off the chains of poverty."
Later, in a talk with the Latin American diplomatic corps in the East Room of the White House, President Kennedy signaled that the Alliance was no mere window dressing.
At the heart of the Alliance was a call for fundamental openings in the economic and political systems of the Americas that would let the dispossessed claim their place in the sun. The status quo was unacceptable. My uncle said, "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable." He called for democracy, a new respect for human rights, long-term economic development, fair distribution of the fruits of growth to campesinos and workers, and land, tax, and education reform.

Comment: That will be a hotel that doesn't get my business (Score 1) 291
My company doesn't have a strong policy - we all try to keep costs down, but we don't go crazy. There are two primary reasons I won't go to a hotel that blocks my use of my phone +/or ipad as a hotspot:
1) security - this is actually pretty much a company policy. We never use public wifi anywhere except in a few rare cases where there was no choice (typically because the cell signal was too weak). If we had a corporate VPN to run everything through it might be less dangerous.
2) bandwidth - in the few times I've actually tried to use the hotel's wifi, or a convention center's wifi, the bandwidth was so bad that it was unusable.
and also, 3) they actually charge for this? Every place I've been to in the last year has had free wifi, and in some cases free hardwired ethernet. Hmm. I am a member of Hilton's HHonors, so I get the wifi for free if I want it. I guess they do charge otherwise. HHonors doesn't cost anything so there's no reason I know of not to be a member. Same goes for Marriott, etc.

Create Your Own Logo
Many people make the mistake of hiring expensive designers for creating logos when you can actually create your own logo. Logos are simple little images with company names slapped on them to help consumers identify with and recognize that brand. You could be quite wrong if you don't think you can create your own logo using common tools and creativity.
To create your own logo, you will need:
- A computer
- Scanner
- Adobe Photoshop and/or Illustrator
- Plan your logo. Some people have the gift of jumping right into their graphics programs and turning out beautiful logos without proper preparation, but for most people, this method is not efficient. You will need to come up with sketches and ideas for your logo. Get a scrap sheet of paper and try to draw out what you're planning. Get opinions from friends and family and ask for suggestions.
- If you've got a good sketch or outline, scan it into your computer. If the logo you sketched is good enough, you can actually work straight from it in your graphics programs. This way you don't have to start from scratch and you've got an image to work off of in the background.
- Create a new document in either Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop. Depending on your experience, you may be more partial to Illustrator or Photoshop. Whichever you one you feel more comfortable using, use it. For the dimensions of the document, you'll want to go with somewhere around 1000×1000 so that it can be large, crisp and useful.
- Choose a typeface for your company name. There are many typefaces that come provided on computers, but there are also thousands on the internet that are free to use commercially (if you plan on using the image in your ventures to make money). You can use any typeface that you feel reflects the company, but there are also common ones that should be avoided. These include Comic Sans, Papyrus, Helvetica and Kristen ITC.
- Arrange the text in an attractive way. You won't want the text to be the main focal point of the image file, but you will want it to be noticeable. Make sure that it is legible and of the right size.
- Begin designing the main graphic. The main graphic should be in proximity of the text. This is where you can really get creative, so make sure that you spend a lot of time fine-tuning this small graphic and making it as attractive as possible. Choose colors that coincide with your company, and try not to get too crazy with using several colors. Remember the rules of color harmony and balance, and make sure that they all work together nicely. To design this graphic, you may want to use different tools in the Adobe programs such as the Pen tool, Selection tool or Paintbrush tool. You can even download custom shapes that are free for commercial use to help design it.
- Keep it simple. Whatever you decide to do, make sure that you don't include too much detail. Logos are supposed to be simple, so remember this when designing.
- Save it as a PSD or AI file, and then a JPEG file. When you're finished, save the file to the location of your choice. Afterwards, save a copy in the same location in the JPEG file format. This will make it easy to send via email, and it can be a quick image file that you can show to others.
