This came up in one of those targeted adverts.
This came up in one of those targeted adverts.
I don't see this as anything unusual. You can turn any derailler ready road frame into a fixie, a single speed or a geared bike and carbon frames are a dime a dozen these days. What's worth investing in? Scam?
Crowd financing is when a Bank loan wont touch the Idea..
I kinda maybe like the sliding dropouts, though they're anything but revolutionary. However, my personal dislikes are:
- CF frame. Yes, I'm in the minority, but I like long-lasting bikes, and will happily sacrifice 1 Kg of added weight for peace of mind and longevity.
- No disk-brake mounts.
- Yet Another Proprietary BB-crank interface? Screw that.
- Outrageous price for the frameset. Maybe you CF guys are used to this sort of ridic, but not me.
I do like the hub, but not at that price. Unless it's well machined, in which case I might look into it. but am unhappy about the fully-aluminum construction. The splines should have been made of steel.
Proprietary parts = fail. But that's just me.
Clean design, like the convertible dropout spacing... but that's about it.
For the same money, I'd get a decent road bike and a FG/SS pose-cycle.
I know next to nothing. I am frequently wrong.
at the whole Kickstarter concept.
let the market decide and the strong companies survive.
it's part of the evolutionary process that results in a good product. one could argue that the traditional process is conservative/iterative, but i argue that's for the better.

The design is clean and attractive, I like it and would't mind having one. I'm not sure if I spent that much for a bike that the adjustments would be that much a factor you could buy several good bikes for that amount.
I expected the geometry to be adjustable reading the first part. That would have been pretty cool.
Not that there isn't room for innovation in the cycling industry, but this designer lost me when they placed more emphasis on 'clean lines' than on functionality. Those proprietary brakes that mount behind the fork are really absurd, as anyone who has spent more than a few minutes working on a tri-bike knows. Same thing with the integrated seat mast. These proprietary features go contrary to the idea of a 'flexible' bike.
I think the idea has some merit though, if it were divorced from the more ridiculous design 'features.' A frame with sliding dropouts that can be adjusted for width, clearance for wider tires, maybe disc mounts. It would be a slightly fancier Cross Check. Even carbon fiber isn't necessarily a bad idea, you can make a good bike (even a durable bike) out of carbon fiber just like you can make a frail and flimsy bike out of steel.
After sitting through the video I was underwhelmed. Interesting concept, but multi-tools usually sucketh greatly. I'm willing to bet you could buy a fixie/single speed, road bike, and hybrid and have three bikes that worked better & cost less. Only advantage is what every multi-tool has: easy to store. Why can I see a rich noncyclist buying is Fabike and storing it permanently?
And the looks don't really move me or appear much different than what I can pick up at Performance bike.
Frame design pretty much was perfected over a 100 years ago with the double-diamond. There's been a lot of details that have improved, but the basic bike came together a long time ago. Real break-throughs have been few.
Pronounced "Murkle"
Actually I kinda like this, and the last 14 pound Italian bike I saw was $14,000 last year. Problem is - I already have too many bikes
Kickstarter has at least the advantage of reaching a large number of potential customers quickly. But aside from that - even the greatest idea in the world is at the mercy of whether consumers can actually recognize it for what it is. I doubt very much that if 'coffee' or 'beer' had initially showed up in something like 'Kickstarter', that there would have been any backers.

Sliding vertical dropouts are pretty common, these days. They usually have disk brake tabs, on the left one. They're great for letting people choose or switch between geared or ss/fg on the same frame. Not sure what the point of going so non standard on the rest of the bike is.

And how these multi-generational ships will be made self sustaining? These spaceships, how their parts, that go bad or break, will be replaced? From where would we get the replacements? I do not think Kragen's or O'reilly Auto Store will be on the way, somewhere.
It would definitely have to be big enough and have enough redundancy to be capable of repairs, fabrication etc enroute.
Recycling must approach almost 99.9% or the expendable depletion would be catastrophic. Even that 0.1% loss might be too much in a multigenerational ship.
Redundant, refined dependable fusion plants are required for sure as Hydrogen can be scooped in route.
Absolutely everything must be recycled...and I mean everything

Better take along a healthy supply of banjos, too. By the time that multi-generational ship reaches its destination, everyone on board is going to be so in-bred they'll look like the guy on the porch in Deliverance.
But no problem. Someone is bound to chime in and say that, by then, we'll know how to alter human genetics to achieve whatever result we desire, including the creation of humans who are no longer quite human. So, is that the purpose of this fantasy, to ensure the survival of a select few people -- descendants of the so-called cream-of-the-crop -- who aren't quite human?
If we can have a ship big enough to carry 150 people, then we are good for 20 generations or so.
Many more if people are allowed to take multiple breeding partners....

Out-of-sync Aztecs find way to win
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. For most of the game, the San Diego State Aztecs did everything they could to let New Mexico steal their first victory of the season. Fortunately for the Aztecs, the Lobos are just that bad.
San Diego State's offense looked out of sync and disheveled most of the night, but still managed a 30-20 win over the Lobos at University Stadium.
The win gives the Aztecs (5-2, 2-1 Mountain West Conference) their highest win total since 2005 and leaves them one victory shy of bowl eligibility with five games to play.
"We felt like we left a lot of plays on the field," said linebacker Miles Burris, who led the Aztecs with eight tackles, including a sack and one for a loss. "Our goal is to win the Mountain West Conference. And we're not going to get it done if we play like that."
The wide receivers dropped passes. Quarterback Ryan Lindley overthrew his targets. And to make matters worse, freshman running back Ronnie Hillman went down with what coach Brady Hoke called a hip-pointer midway through the third quarter and didn't return after rushing for 64 yards and a first-half touchdown.
Twice receiver DeMarco Sampson dropped deep passes that likely would have gone for touchdowns. Twice Lindley overthrew Vincent Brown for what likely would have gone for touchdowns. Twice receiver Dominique Sandifer dropped passes on third-down. Yet the Aztecs persevered for their first win in Albuquerque since 2000 – mostly on the coattails of the defense, which stifled the Lobos for most the game, holding them without a third down conversion until midway through the fourth quarter.
"We'd like to play a lot better," said Lindley, who completed 18-of-37 passes for 249 yards and two touchdowns. "But from where we've come from the last two years, I wouldn't say I'm not happy. But in the locker room, it's a feeling that we know we need to get better.
"Drops are going to happen. That's part of the game. On the overthrows, I need to give my receivers a chance to get their hands on the ball and go fight for it."
The Aztecs gave New Mexico (0-7, 0-3) a mulligan on its opening drive when, after the defense forced a punt, Larry Parker fumbled the fair catch to give New Mexico the ball at the SDSU 30. Unable to move the ball, James Aho gave the Lobos a 3-0 lead with a 46-yard field goal.
The Aztecs answered with a healthy dose of Hillman. The freshman running back took six straight handoffs to open the drive. Lindley sprinkled in a couple of passes, but it was Hillman who ended the drive with an 11-yard touchdown run to put the Aztecs ahead 7-3 – a lead they would hold for the rest of the game. It was also the most crisp the offense would look all night.
Early in the second quarter the Aztecs pushed their lead to 10-3 on a 36-yard field goal from Abel Perez, but two costly penalties on the defense allowed New Mexico back into the SDSU red zone on the ensuing possession. The Lobos picked up 15 yards on a facemask penalty and 15 yards on a third-down pass-interference call. Though the Aztecs stiffened inside their 10 and the Lobos settled for a 25-yard Aho field goal and a 10-6 deficit.
Up until the closing seconds of the first half, the Aztecs couldn't stop stopping themselves. More drops and their second turnover of the game – a Lindley interception at the New Mexico 5 – kept them out of the end zone. That is, until DeMarco Sampson came down with a 40-yard hail mary with no time on the clock. New Mexico punter Ben Skaer shanked an 11-yard punt that gave the Aztecs five seconds to run one play. Lindley threw up jump ball and Sampson out-leaped a pair of Lobo defenders to give the Aztecs a 17-6 lead at the break.

Tonight, I am home in the house where I grew up and counting my blessings. Today, we did our traditional "pre-Thanksgiving New York Thing," and brought the kids in to see "A Christmas Story." I have to admit, I wasn't looking forward to it, given that I'd seen the movie about 12 times since it'd come out, and thought, "how can they make this into an entertaining musical?" Well, I should have known. Never second-guess the song and dance guys that make up the backbone of the Broadway hit machine in New York. Compared to the clowns in Hollywood who write for the silver screen, these guys are veritable blue chip bonds… they just do not fuck it up.
So take that as my endorsement… and for those of you who — like me — have lost a Dad at any point in the last 20 years, well… be prepared. Bring a kleenex.
I wanted to say Thank You to all of you tonight as well. You have been incredibly patient with me this year, and I very much appreciate it. It's been crazy, work wise, and I hope the flow will take a respite in 2013. In the mean time, I thank you for your queries and your correspondence. I think you will be rewarded by the PM's this year, as long as Mr. Obama doesn't take the economy to Berserkiztan and leave it there…
I really like AG right now. It's my number one pick. Do what you like with that, but have some tryptophan first.
Best to you all….

Happy Thanksgiving Jake ! "A Christmas Story" is my seasonal favorite. Yes, I lost my father 13 years ago, but always feel him in the air. Long and strong PM !!
Sir Robert Hooke
Happy Grand Turkey Senator. Always appreciate your PM direction and colourful prose.
Mr. Cain Thaler
Happy Thanksgiving, Jake.
I kid you not; a local play is screening in Detroit, titled "Cancer". It's supposed to be a comedy, according to the advertisements.
That's almost outside the bounds of irony, isn't it?
Glad to hear you're having a good Thanksgiving with your family in NY this year. Hope they are all safe and warm. And Thank You, Mr. Gint, for your earnest efforts here, as well as the sterling quality of the writing. These are among the many things I'm thankful for on this day.
Very much appreciated… best to you and yours in Maine as well…
As a perceived member of the Bumpus clan, and Dad loser 10 orbits ago, I thank you for your counsel. Peace to you and yours
Those damned Bumpus hounds!
happy late turkey day. hope you and your family are doing well. no respite for you in 2013., but you will have a great year. back in miami for good. we to catch up.
Send me an email!

Cincinnati Reds Chief Operating Officer Phil Castellini today announced that longtime Louisville Bats broadcaster Jim Kelch has joined the club's broadcast teams for the 2010 season.
Kelch has been the play-by-play voice for the Louisville Baseball Club since 1989 and the last two seasons filled in on Reds on Radio and Reds TV broadcasts. He will primarily work radio, but also will fill in for selected televised games.
Bats President Gary Ulmer said, "We are absolutely thrilled for Jim. We have believed for quite some time that Jim has the talent and experience needed to work in Major League Baseball and appreciate the Cincinnati Reds for giving him this fine opportunity. We also thank Jim for his many years of service with the Louisville Bats and wish him well in Cincinnati."
Kelch has done television play-by-play for the NCAA Division II men's national semifinals in basketball, television work for the University of Louisville and Bellarmine University, and since 1995 has been the radio voice of University of Louisville women's basketball. A graduate of Bradley University, he called the NCAA Women's National Championship Game in 2009.
"I'm just thrilled that the Reds deem me worthy of joining their radio team in 2010. The last two years working with them on a fill-in basis has been great," said Kelch. "Getting even more involved this year and working for the Reds full-time is the fulfillment of a lifelong ambition to work in Major League Baseball. The 21 seasons I've spent with Louisville have been great years and I look forward to what the future holds."
Matt Andrews takes over as Louisville's Director of Broadcasting after joining the Bats in 2003 as Kelch's radio partner. He arrived at the Bats after a two-year stint with the Chillicothe Paints in the Independent Frontier League. Andrews is in his second season serving as a basketball radio voice for Morehead State and also called Eagles football games for the first time in 2009. A graduate of The Ohio State University, Andrews called numerous Buckeye athletic events for OSU student radio, including Ohio State's National Championship in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl.
"We are pleased to announce that Matt Andrews has been promoted to Director of Broadcasting and will be our lead radio announcer," said Ulmer. "Matt is very talented and is well prepared to assume additional responsibilities within our organization."
Andrews said, "Today is a dream come true for Jim and me. It is an honor to serve the Louisville Bats in a lead radio role and I thank them for this opportunity. I look forward to continuing with the excellent tradition of Bats Baseball on the radio."
The Bats open the 2010 season at home on April 14 against the Indianapolis Indians. Season ticket and Christmas packages are on sale and great seats may be purchased by calling (502) 212-2287 or by logging on to batsbaseball.com.

« Election Day: Will The Presidential Winner Address Children's Health? | Main | Dachel Media Update: 11/6 »
I was recently taken to task by the redoubtable drag artist, often thought to be the alter ego of Brian Deer, Becky Fisher for alluding to the Savile affair in the context of religious exemptions against vaccination. For those who have not heard the story, Jimmy Savile was a BBC disc jockey who became a national institution, raised millions for charity, received a knighthood and last year was accorded a public funeral which was perhaps the grandest since that of the Queen Mother. But all his public acts of goodness were really just a mask for sexually abusing vulnerable people of both sexes: children, the sick, the disabled, the institutionalised, even according to some accounts the dead, while he remained protected and possibly assisted for more than 50 years by the great and the powerful - with no one able to say a word against him. I was making a point about conscientious objection: that ultimately our religions do not call on us to accept everything the state throws at us. It is also a salutary reminder of how easily ordinary people can become the victims of the powerful, and are left without a voice.
But there is another parallel between the Savile affair and MMR. It was under the watch of Secretary of State for Health, Ken Clarke, that in 1988 Savile was given the keys and unlimited access to the criminal mental asylum, Broadmoor (Clarke, who is still a government minister, and until very recently Justice Secretary). It was also under Clarke's ministry that indemnities were signed by the National Health Service for GSK's Pluserix MMR vaccine against advice from Canada that it was already causing harm.
This was not the only bad thing going on in the Department of Health at the time. For instance, there was the Camelford water incident in which the Department of Health has maintained for decades that the population were not injured by water heavily contaminated with aluminium sulphate. In 2005 a Mrs Elizabeth J Sigmund wrote to British Medical Journal:
"In late July 1988 I made contact with a senior toxicologist at the DoH, Dr G K Matthew. We spoke many times: he told me that he had attended committee meetings about the Lowermoor acid water incident and had urged the department to send an expert team to North Cornwall to gather samples of the water and other relevant data, and to make clinical assessments of the health of the people. His words to me were: "I am constantly being overruled".
The strategy of official turning a blind eye to injury and pretending it hasn't happened is all too familiar. In her classic account of the UK's Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (which reports to the Department of Health) Lucija Tomljenovic wrote last year:
"Here I present the documentation which appears to show that the JCVI made continuous efforts to withhold critical data on severe adverse reactions and contraindications to vaccinations to both parents and health practitioners in order to reach overall vaccination rates which they deemed were necessary for "herd immunity", a concept which with regards to vaccination, and contrary to prevalent beliefs, does not rest on solid scientific evidence as will be explained. As a result of such vaccination policy promoted by the JCVI and the DH, many children have been vaccinated without their parents being disclosed the critical information about demonstrated risks of serious adverse reactions, one that the JCVI appeared to have been fully aware of. It would also appear that, by withholding this information, the JCVI/DH neglected the right of individuals to make an informed consent concerning vaccination. By doing so, the JCVI/DH may have violated not only International Guidelines for Medical Ethics (i.e., Helsinki Declaration and the International Code of Medical Ethics) [2] but also, their own Code of Practice."
Meanwhile, further evidence emerges of the unholy alliance between the British government and the Murdoch empire which employed Mr Deer. It turns out the Leveson Inquiry, which is due to report this month, and refused to hear parents complaints about Mr Deer's activities, also failed to publish embarrassing correspondence between the Prime Minister, David Cameron and News International CEO Rebekah Brooks, including sexual innuendo. The question arises once again whether the Leveson Inquiry was appointed to investigate media abuse, or whether it was all along only there to cover up the things most sensitive to government.

"It beggars belief that you would hang your story on such a sickening, depraved career of wilful abuse."
What my dear Sir do you believe "vaccination" is?
Joy B
I had not thought of that at all!!!
But you are right!
No more family owned businesses because all are damaged and will now work for "The Man"!
This case is entirely relevant because it illustrates the ease with which the UK government censors the media and keep stories such as Bryn Alyn supressed for 20 years .
70 graphic pictures were passed to the Police and they havent been seen since , one lord or another is heavily involved in all of this , and they have been lauding it around escaping prosecution for the last 2 decades ....
Its all about honesty and transparency and not the clear state censorship we are seeing to protect the Etonites , and the Oxbridge set (the Tory party), and you have to wonder about the freemasons - particularly because the Police have failed to act consecutively and in fact have colluded to cover up the crime.
Edwina seems to have had her hand in everything and is beginning to look decidedly offside .
And its exactly the same behaviour we are seeing in the Autism holocaust . The Mercury peddlars are thieves in the night in my opinion , with the near complete collusion of government , medicine , bad-science , media .
Hi J, got to disagree with you here.
In the case of Jimmy Savile, children had their lives damaged because those in power did not care enough to stop abuse.
The article is discussing permanent life long injury to young children caused by vaccines, where those in power do not care enough to stop these injuries.
Seems pretty much apples and apples to me.
Do you really think that an injury that may result in a child being non verbal for life is a trivial matter?
Just as history is having its say now regarding Jimmy Savile, it is likely that history won't be too kind to those who ignored the injuries being caused by vaccines, despite opportunities to do the right thing.
"J." is Brian Deer. It's so obvious. Who does he think he's fooling?
Love ya Becks!!
Thanks John
Greed, evil and corruption gets found out in the end.
Martin Hewitt,
We can only hope that the MMR scandal is revisited soon.
How long did it take before the Thalidomide victims were given an apology? 50 years!
Elizabeth Gillespie
J-you talk s-h-one-t ..the goverments have covered up and covered up ..until no more cover is available...
Thanks for the article and please keep us updated about the Leveson Inquiry and the outcome.
Elizabeth Gillespie
Thanks for a little more of the details into the subject.
Did the judges hide behind the church when they did this?
Martin Luther, in Germany turned againest the church when the church was trying to collect money to build a big something in Rome. They were raising it by saying the poor people could give them money and then they would be able to go to heaven.
Funny now, but dead serious back then.
Johannes Kepler didn't he have to spend a whole lot of money to somebody to keep his own mother for being tried as a witch? Was that some judge? hmmm probably -- but the church was blessing it -- I wonder if any of the cardinals and all got any money from the deal. Did Kepler finally have to get help from some church higher up? I think so and I wonder how much he had to pay.
When Jesus comes back there are going to be a lot of people wished they had behaved better.
J likens John Stone's linking of the Savile and MMR affairs to "bandwagon jumping". The association is that in both cases children (or in the MMR case their parents) made claims that were systematically ignored and possibly with the collusion of government authorities who suppressed evidence of the truth. The N Wales Children Homes abuse public inquiry is to be re-opened, so hopefully more of the truth will come out. Claims of abused children, long since buried, against Savile, and so far unnamed other still alive, will also be resurrected and re-examined. But no one is talking about even starting an inquiry into the MMR affair. These children are silent and their parents' claims long dismissed.
The Savile case raises the issue of why vulnerable children go unheard. It is reasonable to suggest that MMR children are victims of unrecognised, unheard and unreported child abuse, when for a decade at least their case of vaccine damage was met with the repeated mantra that the MMR/vaccines-cause-autism thesis has been thoroughly discredited? But the thesis has been subject to only one line of scientific inquiry (that of Wakefield et al) and all other efforts to address the thesis have focused not on why our children are autistic but on discrediting Wakefield's work. This hardly amounts to a scientific inquiry into a legitimate question asked by thousands of parents (and their silent children) of why their children regressed into autism shortly following MMR. The refusal to address the children's claims, via their parents' voice, by means of proper research is equivalent to ignoring the claims of child victims of abuse.
Benedetta what we are witnessing is a conversion of autonomy, it's systemically macro. And 100% about profit. When a business closes, its customers and employees go the the nearest Big Box store, and later wait for the "Grand Opening" in their town. They're turned into pure consumers, or at least this is the plan. Everything suffers for profit until we put a stop to it.
I think it will start to happen when people are too poor to pay for cable tv.
In France at any rate, the inquisition trials in the pre-enlightenment era were pretexts for self-enrichment by judges. A popular target were property-owning widows. Once convicted of witch-craft, the judges took possession of her property. A get rich quick scheme.
The combination of - abuse and betrayal - can be all too devastating . . .
Robin and Brigitte
Thanks for this connection of just how corrupt an organization that is suppose to help mankind really is. Of course it is not just and only limited to the vaccines.
I suppose the only other analogy would be the church in the Spanish Inquisition, or the established church of Europe in the 1600s. Institution that were supposed to be the epitome of love, had such the trust of the people that it was allowed to do such horrible things .
It is scary that such corruption is so rampant, the attitude of such none caring about other human beings is on such a such a scale that I don't think it can be rooted. Not unti the public catches on. So far they have not caught on. I can see why it would be so hard to catch on for poisoning has always been a great way to get away with murder.
There is not one family in my community - good families that have not been touched by drug abuse. There is something bad wrong when you have good families, that have taught their children good values and they still turn to drugs.
Yesterday a well known, beloved man in the repair business came to my house to fix something. His father, and his grandfather has been in business in our community spanning 100 years now. They all three had good reputations.
He said his oldest son who had the intelligence to fix the stuff and run the business-- is into drugs. He said he had spent 26,000 dollars to send him down south for drug treatment. He then turned around and spent 29,000 to sent him out west for drug treatment. His other boy could answer the phones - he did not elaborate but something was wrong there too. I imagine he can't put his finger on it, either. He said he and his wife were 64 years old - he has custody of two of his grandchildren from his first son.
He said he saw no one to continue his business, once he closed the business and was not sure what his youngest son would do. .
What will our community do without hard working repair service people???
But more than that - my heart aches for this man and his family.
These drug rehabilitation places never try to address issues like mood disorders, depression, or bipolar - they only deal with behavior modification. This sort of reminds me of how it is for small children with autism. Never mind their guts are killing them, they have dark circle under their eyes as they are denied treatment for probably vasculitisis type illnesses - or even - even that they are having absentee seizures, but authorities have high praise, lots of money given toward programs of behavioral modifications.
See J; lots to think about, like corruption can come out in a thousand different problems - messing with the brain, immune and enodcrine system also can come out in a thousand different problems too.
Another minister who was known to be involved with both the Savile decision and MMR was Edwina Currie, although I have never seen her name linked with Camelford. What the ministers were advised and by whom is, of course, an important question.
Totally disagree with 'J' and it seems the UK Government agrees the Jimmy Savile sexual and other abuse over several decades, is worthy of a 'root and branch' official Inquiry into how this one man was able to conduct this reign of horror over many decades. Sweeping the whole thing under the carpet would be a far bigger 'insult' to the victims of this abuse.
John Stone's point was that Jimmy Savile would NEVER have been able to do the things he did without collusion and sanction at the highest levels.
I am talking about decision making at the Department of Health in 1988. What happened at Camelford and how a known to be dangerous vaccine - which was suddenly withdrawn by the manufacturers four years later - came to be purchased are very serious issues which reflect on the culture. The phrase "reckless disregard" comes to mind in all three cases. I can see no way these other issues are less serious than Savile. Camelford, indeed, was the subject of a public inquiry which was patently another cover up.
What pathetic bandwagon jumping. You should erase "Jimmy Savile" from this text if you want it to be taken seriously.
It beggars belief that you would hang your story on such a sickening, depraved career of wilful abuse.
Please delete it out of respect to the victims.

A REDD+ Programme that aims to capture the full range of carbon, environmental and social benefits can take many different forms. It all depends on the type of benefits the country wants to prioritize. For example, in addition to carbon benefits, the country can choose to prioritize biological corridors that improve connectivity between protected areas, and then enjoy benefits in terms of carbon payments and biodiversity conservation. Or, in the presence of areas with similar carbon stocks, a REDD+ programme can choose to prioritize those that are located upstream in the catchment basin and that are important for water quality. The Programme can also prioritize income generation from sustainable land use activities in addition to biodiversity benefits and conservation of a given carbon stock.
With the assistance of the UN-REDD Programme, Panama is currently exploring which options of REDD+ could capture the greatest range of benefits. A team of local and international experts recently met in Panama City on 6-8 March to report and share progress on this front. The work began last year with the identification of historical deforestation trajectories using deforestation maps that could be compared across time. The next step was to understand the contribution of potential drivers of deforestation, including the expansion of road networks, investments in mining or hydroelectric, population density and other variables like soil type, elevation and the like. Once the contributions from these drivers are well understood, the team will be in a position to explain past deforestation, to project results into the future and to observe how things may look in the absence of REDD+. The team can estimate how deforestation will advance if drivers do not change and it can also estimate impact if drivers change in intensity and/or location.
In parallel, the team has begun to estimate the potential benefits and costs of REDD+ by adding additional variables into the analysis. Specifically, they are putting into spatial format variables such as carbon stocks, costs of REDD+ (opportunity, implementation and transaction) and an array of environmental and social services such as biodiversity, soil retention and water quality among others. Some of these variables, such as estimated carbon payments or the opportunity cost of alternative land uses, can be presented in monetary terms. Others, however, may need to be shown in physical units or qualitative scales.
When environmental and social benefits, including carbon, are included in the spatial design of REDD+, the country can explore how these affect the private and social returns from deforestation. The result is a number of scenarios that differ one from another in the number and location of hectares that are included in a hypothetical REDD+ Programme. Each trajectory, or scenario, has its own benefits and costs, or in other words, what the country stands to gain from pursuing different REDD+ policies.
The exploration of REDD+ scenarios entails several iterations with policy makers, which have to respond to the different demands from various constituencies. The process is one of joint exploration of options. Policy makers may want to know the impact of REDD+ on current development policies, and/or they may want to go further and explore whether there are complementary investments that can increase the benefits of REDD+ while at the same time promoting a shift towards a green economy in the rural sector. The options are many. In the end, the choice of scenario, or the spatial design of a REDD+ programme, is not a technical but rather a political choice that countries need to make. The UN-REDD Programme continues to support countries such as Panama to inform these critical choices and priorities.

Gold Jumps To 3-Week Highs, EUR Fades As Tensions Rise In Ukraine
Early weakness in US equity futures was rescued when Asia opened and JPY was mysteriously bid but it's fading back now as the UN session escalates into he-YouTube'd-she-YouTube'd. The bigger moves on the night so far are gold (which jumped back over $1325 and 3-week highs) and EUR which fell around 40 pips to 1.3850. We suspect as Ukraine's red-line deadline draws near the bid for safe-havens may accelerate somewhat.

Is that you, Easter Bunny? Is this me?
But Goldman said short Gold was a no brainer..... I guess they meant you had to have no brains to short gold.....
It will be time to short gold again once it hits 1390 or so, like last time. Stock markets will drop in tandem with gold going up. Then some new 'peace deal' that doesnt actually solve any of the problems, but gets everyone to back down a littl bit, will saturate the news. At this point the markets will go euphoric again, get back near their all time highs. Analysts will say this proves the economy is back on track. Gold will shed 50/week for a couple weeks, then settle back to the 1280 range, where it will go sideways for a few more weeks. Wash, rinse, and repeat. Same as it ever was
Gold once again moves to the forefront as being the premium safe haven asset of the world.
Golden egg hunt anyone?
Wake me up when gold jumps $100 or $200 a day. Until then, all these moves are just noise as the Fed and its minions keep a firm lid on the price of gold.
Look at silver languishing at $20 from its highs of nearly $50 from the day Osama died again. BTW, Seymour Hersh says not one word about Osama's death on May 1, 2011 is true:
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh contends the 2011 U.S. Navy Seals raid that resulted in the killing of 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden is "one big lie."
"Not one word of it is true," Hersh told The Guardian newspaper in an interview meant to drum up publicity for his new book about national security.
"Nothing's been done about that story, it's one big lie," the 76-year-old Hersh told The Guardian.
3 week high! :D
Its all a lie, this is the best video availble that proves the officials story is all bull shit.
It's Spring, so PM's will trade up a bit, then fall off in the Summer doldrums as usual then in the fall it's anyone's game, who knows, then a big sell off the last week of the year before the new year begins.
One should not fuss ove the price, be it higher or lower from day to day, month to month. Steadily accumulate, grow your stack(s) and pick up some extra ammo and food along the way and you will have made wise decisions.
Last Summer buying dips of gold/mining stocks were great trades.. so.. it could happen again. Look at miners. Some are at 10+ year lows. Is gold really that worthless? If I were buying for long term investment right now, i'd be accumulating miners.
BitCoin Last Price: 416.3000
PM's are not equal to spot. Where you guys been last 5 years to think spot and PM's are the same thing?
"to think spot and PM's are the same thing?"
I guess we just forgot to add that the "premium" is the arbitrage between spot and retail.
Feel better now?
It's unusual perhaps to run across a ghost from your family's past that reminds you of how governments act and why you should never trust them, especially when it come to your finances.
The text below is why I buy Gold and Silver. While I am not a Kelly, I am related. Out of fairness to the folks who maintain the site, here is the link as well, as I am forever grateful that they have do very well documented the past, if for no other reason than we may learn from history.
I also learned that Father William turned over most of his wealth to the
Colonial Government in exchange for Continental currency which afterwards became so
inflated that it was worthless. The government redeemed it at five cents on the
dollar. Father William would not take that for his, believing that it would be
redeemed some day at its original value he turned it over to his children. My father
and Uncle John did not know how much of this currency their grandfather had.
All they knew was that they had played with about two barrels of it which was their
father's share. They talked about their father and his brothers and sisters (sons
and daughters of once wealthy parents) being cast upon the world without the things
to which they had been accustomed. They spoke of the courage of their own father,
of how he had learned a trade and reared a family and lived an honorable, upright
You can see what inflation and devaluation ot the currency did for
the Kelleys. Had the children of Father William received a just valuation of his
estate, they would have been a family of wealth. I remember that when I was studing
Political Economy in the University I made this statement:--"Inflation and
devaluation are nothing more nor less thjat legalized robbery." There are places
in the United States where one could hardly dare to make such a statement today.
He would be considered a fit subject for investigation. However, I can say frankly
that since my graduation, more that thirty years ago, I have not learned anything
that has changed my opinion one iota.
Yes, we lost our heritage of wealth but we gained nobler heritage. Our heritage
is the gratitude of every American citizen. I would not exchange my American freedom
(for which Father William fought and gavehis all) for the wealth of a Rokefeller.
We sometimes learn much of the history of our departed from their monuments.
When we turn to the tomb of Father William we see whese words carved there:--"He
lived in credit and died lamented by al who knew him. He believed in the
Divinity of Jesus Christ and was an honest man. If he lived in credit and died
lamanted by all who knew him they must have recognized his virte, his
fortitude and his wisdom. We see his virtue manifested by his refusal to sell
grain to those who manufactured alcohol. We see his fortitude manifested by
his refusal to accept five cents on the dollar, for his Continental
currency. He might have been better off by far, but he would not have been condoning
an injustice to his own household. We see his wisdom manifested by his services
and sacrifices to restore to Americans their God given liberty. If he believed in
the Divinity of Christ, he must have accepted the promise made to the Philippoan
jailer. "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved and they
This move in gold is all about "safe havens"? That's soooooo yesterday...
"Buying" gold shows that Return OF Capital is becoming more important than Return On Capital. That's very positive.
USD/JPY RAMP in the morning anyone??
0.61% change wowie zowie. This is dumb.
Yay slight gold increases. Hopefully my mining stocks go up a lot this week so I can sell a few of them.
I'm holding my mining stocks. In a few years I'll never need to work again.
if i were the State Department i would be advising Americans to leave Europe right now. Simply put it doesn't look very safe right now unless you're on a big US military installation.
We'll see if the Mongolian Horde is ready to strike.
If so "that means war." PERIOD.
I think I would want to be any place but on a big US military installation.
Russia won't be attacking Europe, they want to be Europe's new best friend and landlord, replacing the US. Russia might attack Ukraine tho, but not all out full attack. They'll slice off the south east like Crimea.
From there, who knows? All of Europe will be faced with the discomforting knowledge that the US can't protect them anymore.
"All of Europe will be faced with the discomforting knowledge that the US can't protect them anymore. "
Can't, or won't? That is the statement on the level of competence of our leadership.
By 8:30 am the monkey hammering will commence as planned.
I paid $2,000 for a 50 acre gold mining claim with access to, and working rights to the entire 150 acre claim. That was a flat rate, one time cost.
My bank vault is in the ground. It can't be stolen from me. I will dig it up when needed and unlike the FED's printing press, my shit is real, with real labor backing it.
The only thing the .gov could possibly steal from me is my claim, and I'd be out a mere $2,000. Thank god I don't have a mortgage and home I think I "own".
Good luck to you. I hope your extraction costs don't go to high.
Latitude25: Extraction cost? This is my retirement hobby. I'll be the old geezer wandering around the Rocky Mountains near Fort Steele on a 1000cc quad with a metal detector and portable dredge strapped to my ass. And yes, I custom build my own sluice boxes (also strapped to my ass).
I hope interest rates don't go up or people who think they own their homes suddenly won't. Me and my bank vault in the Rockies will not be affected.
Welome to ZH. I'm still new here even after 2 years 20 weeks.
I'm envious, good luck to you.
Only 35,000 AGEs to be minted in 2014. Now why would that be?
Expect a rising premium on these.
Emphasis mine:
"Fort Worth gold dealer GoldCoin.net has issued an Investor Alert after the U.S. Mint recently announced via an April 3 press release that it would only be minting 35,000 of the one-ounce gold American Eagle Proof coins in 2014. "
Proof coins are very much limited edition, collectable coins. The mintage of regular AGEs will be much higher, already is far more than 35,000 oz.
To collectors, yes, sure the Proof AGE premiums could rise.
2011 production of 1 oz Gold Eagles was 857,000 pcs. 2011 (full year) are the latest figures from the Mint:
2014 1 oz Gold Eagle sales (112,500 pcs through April so far):
"I'm holding my mining stocks. In a few years I'll never need to work again."
Just make sure you put stops behind them as they go up. They go to $22, you put the stop at 20. It goes to $30, you put the stop at 25. A LOT of people would be millionaires if they had stops during the NASDAQ bubble.
But they said $1050 an ounce... bastards they lied to us AGAIN. ;-)
Something is seriously a miss in the silver market though, it just can't get any real friction to the upside. :-$
Does look real suspect when gold, platinum and palladium are all on the move.
Hey, when will Johnny Bravo show up to comment about the coming crash in PM prices?

A Vancouver man died and a woman was injured Tuesday morning when a motorcycle hit a minivan in the East Minnehaha neighborhood.
The crash happened around 10:30 a.m. at the intersection of Northeast 63rd Street and 58th Avenue.
The motorcyclist who was killed was identified as Paul Austin, 45.
A 2005 Aprilia motorcycle was traveling west on Northeast 63rd Street and hit a 2000 Ford van, which was making a left turn onto eastbound 63rd Street from 58th Avenue, said Sgt. Dennis Pritchard with the sheriff's Traffic Homicide Unit. The motorcycle was traveling at an excessive speed, which is believed to be a factor in the crash, he said.
Vancouver firefighters were called to the scene from nearby Station 5. When they arrived, bystanders were performing CPR on Austin, said Capt. Kevin Murray, Vancouver fire spokesman. Firefighters took over resuscitation efforts, but Austin was pronounced dead at the scene, Murray said.
Louise Krovas, 87, of Sammamish, the driver of the van, was not cited. Krovas, the only person in the van, was admitted to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center with injuries not believed to be life threatening, the sheriff's office said in a release.
"Anytime there's a fatality, the person in the other vehicle is transported," fire spokesman Murray said. Many times they're in shock, he added.
Krovas was listed in satisfactory condition Tuesday night.
Sheriff's deputies deployed flares and Clark County Public Works set up barriers on Northeast 63rd Street at Andresen Road to the east and Northeast 56th Avenue to the west, where 63rd Street's name changes to Northeast Minnehaha Street.
Detectives with the sheriff's office Traffic Homicide Unit investigated the crash.
Jeff Barram lives near the scene of the crash. He's heard of several crashes at the intersection before.
"This is the first one I've seen that's fatal," he said.
Turning left can take a long time and it's hard to see because of a hill on Northeast 63rd Street, he said.
"It's just a terrible intersection," he said.
His wife, Emily Barram, said the road is particularly bad in the summer.

A large European company recently engaged Infosys to shift its data centre operations to a private cloud infrastructure and the $7-billion Indian IT services firm successfully brought about this transformation along with making more than 1,000 servers redundant, resulting in multiple benefits like, among many others, lower energy and real estate costs. It shows the definite shift towards how India is now being viewed as an outcome sourcing destination that provides definite innovative results and not just an outsourcing region where efforts are being paid for being lower cost.
The $70-billion IT & BPO services industry in India is thriving on the well-established global delivery model (GDM) where cheaper cost is the key attractiveness. Under this model, the efforts of the Indian IT companies are paid in two main pricing mechanisms time & material (T&M) and fixed price. However, all this is changing with the two key markets for the Indian IT industry North America and Europe under severe economic pressure, looking at ways and means to spend less on technology but still wanting the optimum results calling for innovative capabilities.
Chandrashekar Kakal, senior vice-president and global head, business IT services, Infosys, said: India is now looked at as an outcome sourcing destination and this is a major shift.
The country is not seen being seen as a low-cost arbitrage but is becoming more of an outcome sourcing provider because of the capability, talent and solution that we have built over a period of time, said Kakal.
Taking a cue from this shift, iGATE has unleashed an aggressive multimedia campaign targeted at mega corporations in North America in order to shift the outsourcing model from an efforts-based model to a strategic results-based approach. iGATE CEO Phaneesh Murthy said: The old model of IT vendors getting paid on the flawed metric of effort without any risk being shared is dying in todays times. Corporations are moving away from the T&M model that has curbed innovation in the IT industry.
The Indian IT industry also realises that the software services segment is increasingly getting commoditised where the key selling point is lower prices. This model will become increasingly untenable for large Indian IT companies that are now putting their efforts to develop solutions, platforms and consulting capabilities where they are able to showcase their innovative abilities.
TK Kurien, CEO, IT business, Wipro, said: One end of the market is getting

Afghan arrested for alleged lies about terror ties
SANTA ANA, Calif. The brother-in-law of Osama bin Laden's former bodyguard was arrested Friday by an anti-terrorism task force on charges that he lied about ties to terrorist groups on citizenship and passport papers, authorities said.
Ahmadullah Niazi, an Afghanistan native, was arrested at his single-story ranch-style home in Tustin early Friday after prosecutors unsealed a grand jury indictment charging him with perjury, procurement of naturalization unlawfully, passport fraud and making a false statement. He could face up to 35 years in prison if convicted of all charges.
Niazi, 34, has been living in the U.S. since 1998 and became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2004 through his wife – a native of Cambodia who became a citizen in 1992. He first arrived on a tourist visa.
Authorities allege that Niazi's sister, Hafiza, is married to Amin al-Haq, identified in court papers as a high-ranking al-Qaida member. al-Haq was named a "specially designated global terrorist" by the United Nations Security Council and U.S. officials in 2001, according to the indictment.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Deirdre Eliot said al-Haq was believed to have been bin Laden's bodyguard around and after Sept. 11, 2001, prompting the terrorist designations.
"Niazi and his family were upset when Hafiza married Amin al-Haq because of Amin al-Haq's past activities," an FBI agent stated in a search warrant. Niazi did not elaborate on what those activities might have been.
Niazi is also accused of associating with the Taliban and a terrorist organization called Hezb-e-Islami, which fights international and U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
Niazi appeared in federal court hours after his arrest Friday dressed in a brown-and-white sweater, black running pants and wearing handcuffs and a belly chain.
He became agitated when he learned that his private attorney had declared a conflict of interest and would not be present. He initially refused to be represented by a public defender, prompting U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Nakazato to order a brief recess.
Niazi spoke out loudly in court and appeared to be addressing his wife and a group of reporters sitting on the opposite side of the courtroom.
"I need to reveal something to the court, just what exactly is really happening," he said, before agreeing to the public defender after a two-hour delay. "These are not my charges, these are all conspiracy."
Nakazato postponed a detention hearing until Tuesday so public defender Chase Scolnick could familiarize himself with the case. Niazi will remain in custody until then.
"We'll absolutely move for bail at that point," Scolnick said. "I really don't know much about the case at this point."
According to the indictment, Niazi lied when he wrote on his naturalization papers that he had never been a member of or associated with a terrorist organization.
But the government alleges that Niazi traveled to Pakistan in 2005, where he met with al-Haq. Upon his return, he told authorities who questioned him at the airport that he had been visiting family in Qatar, according to court papers.
The indictment also said Niazi had written on his applications that he had never gone by any other name, but prosecutors contend he used several aliases.
The government will also take a close look at Niazi's finances. Investigators targeted his computers and financial records, which allegedly show he sent thousands of dollars to Pakistan and Afghanistan in recent years.
The FBI agent who wrote the search warrant said he believed Niazi and others were involved in structuring their financial transactions to avoid reporting requirements.
He sent at least $16,400 using an unlicensed money transfer system known as "hawala," the search warrant states. Recipients of this money included his family members.

When we tell stories we often need to consider our format. Are we in front of a large audience, or just a small room? Are we using a projector (so we need to stay out of the way of the light) or a large monitor? Do we have an hour or just 20 minutes? Is this a technical white paper or a short blog post? Is this an industry article (with understood industry jargon) or an article for a general audience? Is this a long video or a quick clip.
The possibilities for telling your brand story seem endless. But they exist within frameworks.
When it comes to visual images in social media – a terrific way to tell your brand story – there are some very specific image sizes to consider. The smart folks at Lunametrics have created the "Ultimate Complete Final Social Media Sizing Cheat Sheet" below. I love the tongue-firmly-planted-in-cheek title (because someone somewhere, most likely Facebook, is going to make changes). But the cheat sheet, as it is, provides specific information for the correct and best size for each of your social media images in all the popular social media venues. Now, get to work and make sure your images are properly sized and presented!

Another Vick turnover, what a surprise. Anyone that thinks he will be in philly next year, has no clue. First of all, Chip Kelly needs to win his Bowl game before we can even consider him. When you get an on side kick to start the game, you have to protect the ball. At least get a FN fg.

Cops Heard Saying "We're Going to Burn Him Out" Before Blaze at Dorner's Cabin
The rumor mill was pretty quick to jump to conclusions about the LAPD setting the blaze that engulfed Christopher Dorner's hideout in San Bernardino County. And this video isn't going to help things much. Apparently police officers are heard in the background stating that they are going to burn the cabin down, in a move that would doubtless be approved by the ATF. Somehow I doubt that particular negotiation tactic is standard procedure for use by California's police officers.147

Consider hiring a property manager, unless you plan to live
in the building or plan to make this a career. Property managers typically
charge 8-10% of monthly rent. For that price, companies like Real
Property Management, which has franchised locations around the country, conduct regular property inspections,
vet prospective tenants, collect rent, evict tenants if need be, and remain
on-call in the case of an emergency.

NATIONAL TEEN DRIVER SAFETY WEEK October 17-24, 2010
Everyone knows young people are the future of our nation, but it's becoming increasingly clear the future of young people on the nation's highways isn't quite so rosy. This is particularly true now that all manner of electronic devices are vying for the attention of young drivers over the act of driving itself. "Far too often, the devices are winning, and our kids are losing," says Larry Sauer, Bureau Chief, Iowa Governor's Traffic Safety Bureau.
While no one is immune to driving distractions supplied by the electronic gizmos they are bringing into their vehicles, teens seem to be particularly susceptible to the feverish pace of texting. National Teen Driver Safety Week (NTDSW), October 17-24, 2010, is dedicated to raising awareness and seeking solutions to unnecessary teen deaths on the road.
This year's theme is "Reducing Distractions." Distractions, including friends as passengers, are the number one reason new drivers crash. Incidentally, motor vehicle crashes is also the number one cause of death for adolescents. Additionally, texting while driving and the use of electronic devices while driving are an emerging cause of both crashes and fatalities.
Iowa statistics:
* In 2009, 41 young people ages 15-20 were killed in fatal crashes. This number is 7 less, or a 15% decrease, from the 2008 fatality number of 48.
* From 2000-2009, nearly 850 people ages 16-24 were killed in traffic crashes.
* During the 2000-2009 calendar years, over 4,600, 16-24 year olds were seriously injured in traffic crashes.
* Additionally, drivers ages 16-24 typically represent over 30% of all drinking/impaired drivers in fatal and serious injury crashes.
Please contact your county sheriff's office or local police department for local crash statistics.

Embassy Row
Morrison, James, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
The Council on Foreign Relations is urging the next U.S. president to adopt a tougher trade policy toward Japan and avoid past mistakes that Tokyo exploited.
"To support a renewed Japan focus in Washington, the new administration should pursue a proactive trade policy," the council said yesterday, promoting a report due for release Friday.
"Years of trade-jousting with Japan have taught valuable lessons: Success requires leverage; it pays to have specific demands; short time-frames lead to truncated results; [and] fragmentation within the U.S. government has frequently been Japan's most powerful ally."
Whether it is President Gore or President Bush, the next U.S. leader should challenge Japan to join the United States in creating an open marketplace free of tariffs and over-regulation by 2010, said the report by Bruce Stokes, the council's senior fellow for economic studies.
"The time is ripe for a bold new initiative to recast the U.S.-Japan economic partnership for the 21st century," Mr. Stokes said in the report, titled "A New Beginning: Recasting the U.S.-Japan Economic Relationship."
"Passivity in the face of the staggering economic problems facing the world's second largest economy and America's principal ally in Asia would be a profound mistake.
"Charting a new course for the U.S.-Japanese economic relationship will require American assertiveness and a bold vision for a better future. It would be a fitting legacy for the new U.S. administration, a new Congress and a new Japanese government if they have the courage to begin to write it."
The council warned that "U.S. willingness to resolve mutual problems" depends on the continued success of the nation's economy.
"A new, proactive U.S. policy toward Japan is needed to maximize the potential of the U.S.-Japanese economic relationship and to cope with the inevitable problems in day-to-day ties between the two largest economies in the world," the council said.
Kazuo Kodama remembers that when he was studying at Oxford in the 1970s, he was asked a question on an exam about why Japan was an "economic giant but a political dwarf. …

MOORESVILLE – Overtime seems to be Kelsey Steiner's moment to shine.
Steiner goal on a low shot from a difficult angle gave host Lake Norman High a 2-1 victory against rival Hough in overtime Monday. The win clinched the I-MECK 4A conference championship for Lake Norman, which is 20-1 overall and 13-0 in conference.
It's the second time in a month Lake Norman beat Hough, the reigning N.C. 4A champion.
Lake Norman began the game ranked No. 2 in the N.C. 4A poll. Hough was ranked No. 3.
Steiner's winning shot came 90 seconds into the 10-minute overtime, which was followed by a second 10-minute session (it was scoreless).
"I just wanted to get anything on it I could," Steiner said. "I was reaching for the ball. I think I got my toe on it. Overtime is the last couple minutes of the game and you've got to leave it all out there. You've got to fight all the minutes you're out there."
Steiner had three overtime goals in a 5-2 victory against Mallard Creek two weeks ago.
Hough took a 1-0 lead in the 28th minute when Nicole Duncan deflected in Courtney Carroll's free kick.
Lake Norman tied the game at 1 midway through the second half when Kendall Fischlein deftly popped a short shot over Hough goalkeeper Marnie Merritt.
