As a novice in marathon training there is still much for me to learn about a runners lifestyle. However 3 key things have kept me (so far) injury-free and ahead of schedule for the big Chicago Marathon.
Not only do people still underestimate the importance of investing in a good pair of running shoes, but they are also not counting the miles put on the shoes after a run. It is extremely important to be fitted by a shoe specialist (if possible) to make sure that you are 1. running in the right shoe and 2. understand your own running form. Running experts recommend that no shoe should live beyond the 400-mile mark therefore it is of the utmost importance to keep a tally of how many miles have been run in the shoes.
2. Diet
As any onlooker can see, being a marathon runner doesn't necessarily mean your body snaps into shape from the running alone. It wasn't until I made the conscious decision to drink more water and start eating according to my training that I really started feeling great. It is important for any marathon runner to understand exactly how many calories are burned during a run and balancing your diet accordingly. My Fitness Pal is a great app to get any athlete started in the right direction for health conscious training.
3. Stretching
Stretching of any kind is essential to keeping your muscles safe and healthy for those long runs, but understanding what your body needs and when is a must. Personally, I attend bikram yoga twice a week to make sure my muscles get a nice 90 minute stretch along with some core and balance work. However heavy stretching before a run is not recommended by running enthusiasts. Take your stretch intensive sessions on an off day or after one of your short runs.

You see, Jared is reviewing the game "Deadpool", but he does it after eating a habanero pepper. You can't help but laugh! Maybe he is rethinking his concept after this one.

Is counting calories a good thing or is it bad for my health?
- Bianca*
It's always good to be aware of the amount of food you're eating, especially with overweight and obesity becoming more and more of a problem. That doesn't mean you need to pick up everything you eat and count the calories. Not only will that take forever, but it's not necessary in most cases.
Unless your doctor tells you to count calories for health reasons, your best bet for maintaining a healthy diet is to focus on balance and portion size.
One thing you should count is your fruit and veggie servings. Be sure to get at least five servings of fruits and veggies a day. Lean protein and whole grains are also good choices every day.

Paul McCartney Releasing Christmas Classic Next Month
Tuesday, September 18, 2012
Paul McCartney's new version of Mel Torme and Bob Wells' 1946 yuletide standard, "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)," will be featured on the upcoming Holidays Rule compilation being released by the former Beatle's label, Hear Music on October 30th. Beatlefan reported that the track, which sounds like an outtake from his recent standards collection, Kisses On The Bottom, is co-billed to his main collaborator on the album, jazz pianist -- and Elvis Costello's wife -- Diana Krall.
Other artists include the Shins -- who cover McCartney's 1979 holiday classic, "Wonderful Christmastime," Rufus Wainwright featuring Sharon Van Etten, Fruit Bats, and Punch Brothers, among others.
McCartney says that he's always had a soft spot for the quality of songs written in the '30s and '40s: "I like that kind of thing, As you say, it was part of my songwriting thing -- it always has been -- because of my love for the songs and the structure of them. They're very well crafted."
UPDATED: Paul McCartney tour dates (subject to change):
November 11 - St. Louis, MO - Scottrade Center
November 14 - Houston, TX - Minute Maid Park
November 25 - Vancouver, BC - BC Place
November 28 - Edmonton, AB - Rexall Place

If you've had a baby in your house, you know all about the mantra "back to sleep." For 20 years, doctors have told parents to put newborns on their backs to sleep to lower the risk of sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS. The back-to-sleep campaign has cut the number of SIDS deaths by half, but it's also created another problem. It turns out some babies may be spending a little too much time on their backs. Doctors are seeing a big jump in babies who are coming in with flattening on the backs of their heads. Maria and Steve Janos came to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta because their baby, Sasha, had what was kind of a strange problem: the shape of her head. She's their first child, so they followed the nurses' orders by swaddling her and putting her on her back to sleep. "And after about two months, we noticed that her head, the left side of her head became flat," said her mom, Maria. "And she was favoring that side to sleep."All newborns like Sasha have soft, malleable skulls that help them pass through the birth canal. Children's orthotist Jessica Corso says all the time Sasha was spending on her back caused her skull to flatten out. They call that plagiocephaly. Sometimes, Corso says, the problem starts in the womb because of how the baby is positioned. "Where the baby is born with tightness in their neck muscles on one side, and so therefore when they're laying down on their, due to the back to sleep program, the back side becomes flat."The good news is that the flattening wasn't affecting Sasha's brain development, or physical growth. But if it's not corrected, Corso says it can cause facial abnormalities. "Sometimes we have very severe cases where just at a glance, you can see the baby's eye and ear are pulled on one side from the flatness," Corso explained.To take the pressure off the left side of Sasha's skull, Corso prescribed "tummy time." Until Sasha was able to roll over on her own and sleep on her belly, she taught her parent show to position her and lift her and hold her in a way that encourages Sasha to use her underdeveloped neck muscles. "So that was fun, because it's like a game, you know," said Maria. "You give her a toy, she moves around, she rolls over to it, so it's no problem, we could do that all day long."The more time Sasha spent on her tummy, the more the flattening began to disappear. "For me, I was amazed once she was old enough to roll over and be okay on her, sleep on her tummy, how fast it fixed itself," said Maria. "I mean, I'm talking two weeks, I saw improvement."Sasha never had to wear a helmet or a band to mold her head shape, but some babies do. To prevent skull flattening, parents are advised to try to keep the baby up off of his or her back when the child is a awake. For that reason, parents should also try to avoid too much time in car seats and carriers. Instead, hold your baby upright, with their head over your shoulder.

It took weeks longer that it was supposed to for City Clerk Janice Winfrey to print and mail out absentee ballots. The cause? A legal fight involving a woman who wants to take Winfrey's job.
That woman is D. Etta Wilcoxon, who the clerk's office put on the ballot and threw off the ballot before a court ordered them to let her run.
Depending who you ask, this is a case of political skullduggery, a public official trying to eliminate the competition, or it could just be a series of suspicious looking, but otherwise innocent, mistakes? So far, only this much is clear: Winfrey's staff screwed up big time.
"Is this a political assassination?" I asked Detroit mayoral candidate Tom Barrow.
"There's no question it is," he said.
Barrow supports Wilcoxon, and he knows just a little bit about getting people kicked off ballots. After all, he is the guy who knocked out Mike Duggan, forcing him to launch a write-in campaign for mayor.
Now Barrow says Winfrey is up to no good, and he is not the only one who feels that way.
"It does appear that we were a target of some sort," said Wilcoxon.
On May 1, she filed more than 500 signatures to get on the ballot. On May 7, she received a letter from the clerk's office.
"That letter said it has been determined that you have a sufficient number of signatures to place your name on the August 6 primary ballot," Wilcoxon said.
But what Wilcoxon did not know at the time because the clerk had not told her was that Winfrey's staff had invalidated dozens of signatures. That still would have been no big deal until political activist Mildred Madison came along.
"My life has been dedicated to good government," Madison said.
She found errors that caused the clerk to throw out more than two dozen of Wilcoxon's signatures, just enough to get her knocked off the ballot.
"If you don't know how to circulate a petition, how then do you know how to run a whole department?" Madison said.
Here is the curious thing. It took Winfrey's staff eight days to tell Wilcoxon she was toast, and by then the clerk's office said it was too late for them to do anything about it.
"My first reaction was how dare they?" Wilcoxon said.
So she sued the clerk and won.
"What we have in this case is a serious case of dereliction of duty," Wilcoxon said. "If you cannot rely on that office to determine the validity of your candidacy, who can you rely on?"
Those are mighty strong words from someone who is pretty angry that she had to work so hard just to get back on the ballot. So we figured we should ask the clerk for her version of just what happened.
Winfrey's assistant said her boss would not go on camera. So we gave her a few days to think about it before saying hello in person.
We wanted the clerk to explain why her staff refused to give her would-be challenger a fair shake.
ELRICK: The Court of Appeals said that your office failed to do its duty.
WINFREY: I haven't seen anything from the Court of Appeals.
Really? The clerk's staff fought for weeks to keep Wilcoxon off the ballot, and then Winfrey does not read the court's order, the one that shut the clerk down and slapped her around?
Check out this language. The judges said Winfrey's staff "failed to comply with their statutory duties."
ELRICK: But it was your staff who invalidated her signatures, many of which were found to be okay, and it was your staff that tried to keep her off the ballot. Don't you run that office?
WINFREY: I do run that office. It was not my staff who tried to keep her off the ballot. We don't do that.
That's not right. Winfrey and her staff not only knocked Wilcoxon off the ballot, they refused to review their decision. It is all written in black and white.
ELRICK: "The Department of Elections either failed to respond or responded by stating it was unable to comply with a request." In other words, your department failed to give her the review that she was entitled to. This is the Court of Appeals ruling.
WINFREY: Certainly she got the review that she was entitled to. Absolutely.
In fact, the judges said they found it "particularly disturbing" that Winfrey's staff refused to give Wilcoxon a "full and fair review."
So Wilcoxon had to fight for her political life. The ballots went out way late. Voters and candidates throughout the city were inconvenienced, and here is the kicker. The Court of Appeals ruled that if Winfrey's staff had just done its job in the first place, this whole mess "may have been avoided."
"Certainly it slows up the process, but people have a right to appeal. They have a right to challenge. That's our law. That's the democratic process," Winfrey said.
The clerk said she was not involved in the decision to toss her opponent off the ballot or to keep fighting in the courts.
In any case, Wilcoxon is back on the ballot, and voters will get to have their say on Tuesday.

Throwing out the first pitch is a nerve-racking experience. Trust me, I have done it dozens of times and, despite having played and coached for most of my life, I still get a few butterflies when I do. For most who get the opportunity, it's a once-in-a-lifetrime thing.
It usually ends badly for them, too.
Not for this 9-year-old in St. Petersburg, Fla. Throwing out the first pitch at a Tampa Bay Rays game was not the highlight of her day. Learning who caught that first pitch... that's priceless.

How much success can one campus take? Plenty. Saturday was one of those red letter days for the Green Knights of St. Norbert College. In a span of hours, the men's and women's basketball teams captured Midwest Conference Tournament championships, women's hockey team moved on to the semifinals of the Northern Collegiate Hockey tournament and the men's hockey team advanced to the championship game of the NCHA tourney.
Leading if off was the sizzling hot men's basketball team. After coming from 17 points down in the MWC semifinal Friday against Carroll College to win 74-68, the Knights took on the run and gun bunch from Grinnell College in the title game Saturday afternoon. The Pioneers defeated Ripon in their semifinal game 122-115, burying a ridiculous 27 of 44 three point shots. The title game was more of the same and proved to be a nip-tuck affair. Tied at 86, St. Norbert scored the next 13 points and held the Pioneers without one. The 99-86 victory was the 22nd straight for the Knights, improved their overall record to 24-1 and most importantly, sealed the automatic bid to the NCAA Division III national tournament. It's the 4th tourney appearance in the last five years under head coach Gary Grzesk. Even though St. Norbert could have likely earned an at large bid, Grzesk said the victory left nothing to chance and assured the Knights a trip to the dance:
Senior Brandon Gries led the Knights in the title game with 23 points, Andrew Schwoerer had 21, Austin Elliot pitched in with 18. Grinnell's hot shot guard from Black River Falls, Jack Taylor, who made national headlines by scoring 138 points himself in a game last year and 109 earlier this year, was held to 11. St. Norbert added a tournament championship to a resume that already includes the first perfect regular season in Midwest Conference history and a number five national ranking in the Division 3 on line poll. When it was over, the champs did some posing.
As for the ladies.... It was a much more challenging journey for head coach Connie Tilley, wrapping up her 37th year at the school. She eclipsed 600 career wins earlier in the season but the Green Knight gals needed a strong finish in the regular season to share the MWC title and gain the right to host the tournament. They made it pay off with a victory over Carroll in the semifinals and in the championship game, defeated Monmouth 69-60. The women played the tourney without their leading scorer, Lana Tomashek, who learned her injured knee wasn't able to hold up and would be in need of surgery. Her high school teammate, Morgan Heim, played for Tomashek and delivered a huge three point shot late in the title game as the Knights squandered a 15 point, second half lead. St. Norbert finished it off, earning Tilley her 11th NCAA tournament bid and possibly her most satisfying:
Freshman Brianny Byrne was the top scorer with 16 points, 7 came in an opening 11-0 blitz. Another freshman, Jill Kleiman from Kewaunee had 13 points and Heidi Van Sistine of De Pere scored 11. Heim would finish with 9 but the big basket dedicated to her fallen friend who won't be able to play in the big dance. The headline photo is of Heim cutting down the net at the Schuldes Sports Center. Here's Morgan with the rest of the championship team.
As for the hockey teams. The women shut out Marian College 7-0 to reach the semifinal round of the NCHA tournament. The men dominated Lake Forest 6-0 to move into the championship game. Both squads will play teams from the College of St. Scholastica next. If the women win, they'll move to the title game, for the men, a victory earns the three-time national champs another trip to the Division III Frozen Four. All things considered, not a bad weekend on the St. Norbert campus in De Pere.

DC Collectibles has released previews of new figures and collectibles slated for release next year. Frankly, I'm not very excited about a single item on the list.
Photo credits: DC Collectibles FacebookAmong next year's products are The New 52 Earth 2 action figures for Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern and Batman. I'm not a fan of The New 52 makeovers, so these figures hold little interest for me.
There's a new Superman:The Man of Steel statue designed by Ed McGuinness. Next year's entry into the Cover Girls line is a Poison Ivy statue by Stanley "Artgerm" Lau.
Deadman will be available as a plush toy that is so ugly I wouldn't even let my dog play with it.
There's a full size replica White Power Battery and ring prop. Now I realize there's a White Lantern Corps, but who in their right mind wants a white ring and power battery for $199? If I'm spending that much money, I want a working power ring...not a boring white replica.
One of the better items on next year's list is a Flash vs Gorilla Grodd mini-statue. The design and sculpting are interesting, but what's with the wings on Flash's headpiece? Those things are longer than Batman's cape!
Finally is a Batman: Arkham City Rabbit Hole Batman action figure. I've been collecting Batman toys, action figures and memorabilia for 25 years. However, I shed the need long ago to buy every Batman-themed action figure that gets produced. There are some great figures in the Arkham lines, but Rabbit Hole Batman ain't one of 'em.

US Army Corps of Engineers
Constnjction Engineering Research Laboratory
USACERL Technical Report 99/30 March 1999
Classification of Great Basin Plant Communities Occurring on Dugway Proving Ground, Utah
Verl Emrick and Alison Hill
In 1996, staff with Dugway Proving Ground (DPG) and the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL) launched a project to classify and describe plant communities occurring at DPG. The goal of the project was to use field data to derive a plant community classification system specific to DPG. The classification followed, with certain modifications, the framework of the Nature Conservancy's Standardized National Vegetation Classification System (SNVCS). The SNVCS is a hierarchical system that summarizes plant communities at four
physiognomic and two floristic levels. A total of 500 releves were inventoried during the summers of 1996 and 1997. The field data were subjected to several multivariate classification techniques, including hierarchical and nonhierarchical cluster analysis, and multidimensional scaling. Four physiognomic classes, 5 formations, 17 alliances, and 26 associations were identified at DPG. The results of the derived classification will subsequently be used to assist in mapping the vegetative communities at DPG.
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.

"I'm not stealing no dogs, and I'm not hoarding no dogs," said Leah Montgomery."How many dogs do you have?" I asked."I don't have that many," she answered.Montgomery didn't want to give us a straight answer. Aside from the constant barking coming from her house on Ewers Street on the city's southwest side, it's hard to tell exactly how many.One pit she showed us in the back yard, but her neighbors claim inside the house surrounded by fencing and boards, she is hoarding several. Some they claim she even stole from their own yards."It looked just like my dog, the same markings, and stopped and I said, 'Where'd you get that dog?' She said, 'Someone gave me the dog.' And I said, 'No, I think that's my dog.' And she said, 'No it's not. Someone gave it to me.' And she grabbed it and went walking the other way," said Alicia Lake.Neighbors said once Montgomery has them, she cages and neglects the animals barely giving them food and water."It stinks all up in the house from the upstairs to the downstairs. You've got dogs in her bedroom all the way down. You can't hear yourself if you go in her house because of all the barking," said Charles Miles."She hides them in there, so sometimes you don't know until you see her walking with them. But there'll be a whole bunch of them out there on the porch," said Wendy."There's a bunch of them, and when they become too much or if they die because they do starve -- if you see her dogs they're very sickly -- she'll put them in an abandoned house and just let their bodies rot, and that's a problem for me," said Cheyenne Byard.In May of 2011, rescue organizations took more than 25 dogs, most of them pit bulls, out of Montgomery's house, describing the inside as a maze and the conditions unlivable.Montgomery was accused of hoarding them at her house and the abandoned house next door, but we're told the Michigan Humane Society never brought a case against her. So it appears Montgomery started hoarding again.Montgomery refused to open her door, but eventually admitted she had at least 15 dogs inside."How are you getting your dogs?" I asked."A couple people gave me dogs," she said."Are you feeding the dogs and giving them water," I asked."Yeah. I've got water. I've got dog food. Yes," she said.Montgomery brought out the dog Lake claims she stole from her front yard last fall when it was just a puppy. The dog was just skin and bones and scarfed every bit of food provided by a generous neighbor.In Detroit, residents are only allowed to have three dogs.Police officers were at the home late Tuesday night.

My wife and I are blessed enough to be able to have her stay at home with our 3 kids, twins boys (pictured) who are 20 months and our 3 1/2 year old daughter. We are very happy that we are able to do this.
It hit me this weekend - as I was trying to think about the last time I had any "me" time...and couldn't remember. It was before my sons were born and probably at-least 2 months prior to that (as the last 2 months of my wife's pregnancy were extremely hard on her.)
Knowing that my wife hardly EVER gets any time for herself, she does go out occasionally with a friend for a walk, shopping, a get-together of some sort. I actually wish she went more, because it's her only time "away." I 100% support and will NEVER say "no" if she asks me to watch the kids while she gets some away time.
Working full-time, I get 8-10hrs of "away" time every day. However, every moment that I'm "away", I'm working (except for the hour lunch-break I get to go to the YMCA and work out.)
My problem is - I never ask for (or would ever expect) any "away" time, since I'm "away" each day. This means I have done NOTHING social with "just my friends" in the past 22 months. Actually, it's not a problem, it's just my life. I'm not upset about it. In fact, this is the first time that I've ever even thought about it like that....should I be upset???
As far as my lack of social activities, I only say that because now that it's Summer, we have multiple friends/relatives that are in similar situations as ours (2+ young kids), but the Husband/Dad's are constantly going away on golf tournaments, softball leagues...etc....
My wife and I were thinking about this and we both agreed that there is no way that I would even consider doing this, because I'd feel TOO GUILTY. I mean, my wife has to stay home with the kids EVERY DAY, on my days off, how would it be fair to make her stay home with the kids on those days too? Even if my wife said it was "ok" for me to go anywhere (I don't even ask - again - I just don't think it would be fair) I would feel too guilty to enjoy any of the time anyway.
However, we'd probably feel different if my wife worked, since if that was the case, then she wouldn't be with the kids each and every day.
It's an interesting thing to think about, especially if there are any soon-to-be-mothers who are considering staying home. My advice would be just to have an open and honest conversation with your wife/husband about this before moving forward with any plans.

If communism was working the way its progenitors wanted it to, would it be better than capitalism?
The main reason why communism was made was people wanted to be equal without getting restricted by their environment, but nowadays communism is abused by some dictators such as North Korean leaders. Besides, capitalism also has its own problem. There are so many people who didn't have opportunities to try what they really wanted to do due to their poverty or else.
If communism was working as it should be, would it be better than capitalism?
(When there are no dictators)
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Apr 24 2013: I think it would. The problem was that there was a huge gap between the theory and its practice. The communism theory was an outcry for change in the reality of severe injustice of those times. It had noble ideals. But as it usually occurs in the mankind history, the great ideals always fall victim to the basic human nature -- the human nature of greed and selfishness. This means, whoever gains the power in the name of any ideals, exploit those ideals only for the benefit of his and his close group. Communism was not exception of this basic human nature, as well as the Capitalism and many countless other man-made systems of diverse ideals.
So I think that instead of looking for the BIG answers from the failure of Communism (like dictatorships, organizing labor differently, the Chinese interpretation of communism or whatever) it would be much better for the all mankind to look for more seemingly minor answers, which are actually the real true answers. Because these answers are common to perhaps all the mankind's ideological failures in the history and not just for the failure of the communism -- for example, also the latest economic crisis due to the failure of the Capitalism.
Apr 25 2013: it is a recurring theme, only if communism worked. but the thing is, communism is unworkable as a concept. without private ownership of means of production, it is impossible to see what ideas work and what don't. because the reason behind the success of capitalism is trial and error on massive scale. but this does not work without "attaching" success and failure to the entrepreneur. hence, ownership of capital.
Apr 25 2013: Well said Yubal I agree 100%. No government can work on principles of greed and selfishness. I believe Greed and Selfishness can be eradicated through law itself. There should be no personal gain through leadership whatsoever. Our leaders must be selfless and that is a very tall order that must be forced upon them by their own hand. That is unlikely.
May 1 2013: I agree. The job of politician needs to be the most unglamorous toil, for minimum wage without benefits, with death penalty for corruption, that would attract only those who are sincerely devoted to "serving the people". I'm yet to see a government that would vote to decrease its own salary. Nor have I seen voters that would vote down a social welfare program.
May 1 2013: A reply to Arkady and Yubal. I am referring to this thought. "I agree. The job of politician needs to be...
I believe that to be a desperate measure, one that would attract no one other than the Dalai Lama and probably not even him. I have a different perspective,
Whatever is being glamorized is being glamorized deliberately to produce certain results. The mass media, news, newspapers, television shows, education, is controlled information. By who? By those who have a vested interest in how you think. Violence is glorified. Excessive luxury is glorified. Excessive consumption and irresponsible behavior is glorified. Competition is glorified. Hubris is glorified. Poisonous food is glorified. The idea of what is glorious and what is glamor is being dictated to us. And we have accepted it. The others who have had a very different message for us and became popular, JFK, John Lennon, Martin Luther King, Gandhi, Jesus etc. have all been assassinated. The reasons for this are obvious. So because you are faced with what seems like an enormous and seemingly impossible task of turning this all around, you turn to desperation. By using a pittance of a salary and fear of death, so that you can trust a person. You have created a situation where you will not have to trust.
In order to solve this problem, I say ignore what they say, reject their notion of success, dismiss what they tell you is glory and listen to your highest thoughts. I say glamorize our leaders to the highest degree. Make it known that it is the highest and most honorable position possible to achieve. With it comes a salary fit for a great leader. Of course swiftly remove them if they are no longer serving the best interest of all people. But in order to determine what is best for all people, they would first have to decide what they are doing here. And this is a question that mankind has been asking for millennia. Perhaps it would be profitable to ask it now.
May 1 2013: I understand that it can appear as if we have an accurate understanding of human nature. I do not believe we understand what human nature is. What we have, when we look at human kind, is evidence that is based on the behaviors of humans. Behavior which is in theory caused largely by the dominant beliefs of the day. For example I'll take two subjects where the contrast is high. You can clearly see the difference between the behaviors of the Dalai Lama, who believes one thing about life, and Adolf Hitler who believed entirely another. Why do they behave so differently? Is there nature different? Are they different species? Or is it simply because of what they believe? Perhaps the only thing that matters is what we believe. And most of all what we believe about ourselves.
May 1 2013: A quick review of the history shows that usually new systems or ways are founded with good intentions. The founders usually mean to make good. The problem is with their successors. The successors many times twist the main theme of the founders, and here enters the issue of the human nature. The communism is of no exception of this principle.
I have written about this in more details on another discussion at TED forum. It is at my second reply there (Sep 2 2011) to "robert richards": http://www.ted.com/talks/thandie_newton_embracing_otherness_embracing_myself.html?c=312893
May 1 2013: Yubal, I read your comment in the Thandie Newton video discussion. People tend to look for confirmation of their ideas instead of looking for contradiction (a problem which Karl Popper found with Marxism http://www.stephenjaygould.org/ctrl/popper_falsification.html)
"A famous study by psychologist Peter Wason neatly illustrates how we tend to look only for confirmation of our ideas, seldom for disconfirmation. Wason presented subjects with four cards having the symbols A, D, 3, and 7 on one side and told them that each card had a number on one side and a letter on the other. He then asked which of the four cards needed to be turned over in order to establish the rule: Any card with an A on one side has a 3 on the other. Which cards would you turn over? (The answer is below.)
These are just a few ways in which we systematically fall victim to psychological illusion.
Answer: Most subjects picked the A and 3 cards. The correct answer is the A and 7 cards. " -- http://tinyurl.com/capce8e
With this in mind, don't you think that there are as many examples of the contrary - when something bad turns into something good? E.g. arms race boosting scientific and industrial progress, the failure of Hubble telescope lens boosting development of image processing technologies, or wars stimulating economy and causing exchange between cultures.
May 3 2013: Yubal - I agree.
Arkady - everybody suffers from confirmation bias until the amount of data is so overwhelming that confirmation bias is sure to disappear, when you're more interested in the data than confirmation of biases. The Bible is not a history book.
Brendan - an American journalist who was interviewing Dalai Lama once tried to be funny and tell him a joke. "Dalai Lama walks into a pizzashop and says - give me one with everything." Dalai Lama wasn't sure what a pizza shop was and didn't get the joke, but the conversation was still a pleasant one. He didn't say "Are you implying that I don't know what a pizza is?" or "How dare you use your American culture while speaking to Dalai Lama?! I feel offended!" The interview is on youtube.
May 1 2013: A reply to Arkady Grudzinsky:
Good points. Generally I like to phrase the sentence that Bad things come out of Good things and Good things come out of bad things.
Now to be more specific about your points: The examples you gave about good things coming out of bad things -- please note that to create the good things you mentioned from the bad things, there had to be, I guess, someone (or some people) with good intentions who initialized those good things. But see now, isn't the scientific and industrial progress used many times for bad aims ?? Isn't the image processing technology used many times for fraud or just to create illusions about products to attract customers or about modelling to attract teenage girls ?? And so on and on.......
So you gave true facts, but the principle I gave about the basic human nature is valid with those facts too.
May 1 2013: Yubal, perhaps, it is fair to say that any good cause can and will be perverted by someone somewhere. I agree with this statement. I wouldn't, however, make far-reaching conclusions that tendency to corruption is "fundamental human nature". People also known to strive to improve their lives. If corruption and decay were the fundamental general direction for humanity, there would be no social progress - things would get worse over time. And they do get worse, here and there, but, on a global scale, humanity makes progress: slavery is abandoned, exploitation of child labor is illegal in most places, diseases are eradicated, life span increases, etc. Even the beggars on highway exits are not naked and do not have open sores. It's the same "human nature" that makes things better.
I stopped using terms "natural" and "unnatural" after reading the paper about homosexual necrophilia observed in animal world http://www.ted.com/talks/kees_moeliker_how_a_dead_duck_changed_my_life.html . I read the paper last year, from a link in Wikipedia about homosexuality in animal world. I always think of this example every time someone says that "homosexuality is unnatural".
May 3 2013: I have no disagreements with what you say. Please note that I myself wrote in the comment you read on the Thandie Newton's talk, that the human nature is good fundamentally. However, the same nature has some traits which persistently cause failures of the systems the man creates, as the time passes. I gave there briefly the mechanism of how this happens.
We both do not differ in what we say. See how.
When you give examples of good things mankind has created or done, these things are usually new ways//innovations//discoveries//enterprises//....etc. At these new beginnings, there are mostly the good intentions of the beginners//founders, there's plenty of vital enthusiasm, there's great vision and so on. So no wonder so many good things come out of all these great virtues of the Man, as you had specified.
But I say let's look beyond the great beginnings, after enough duration of time. Let's see what happens when the founding people//generation of all the good things pass away or lose their impact. The history proves that usually the followers or the successors (not necessarily the immediate successors) after the founders lose//forget//ignore the great ideals of their preceders. What was once new and fresh beginning turns gradually into routine, many times a boring routine. And so in such climate these followers tend to twist or misuse those great systems//ways//creations of the original founders. I say that this occurs due to the human basic traits of greed, ego-centrism, selfishness....etc which start to dominate in the absence of the spirit of good intentions, enthusiasm, vision, positive ideals.......
But I shall add and say that it's not at all a lost battle. Exactly by becoming aware of these processes and confronting them we will be able to reduce the impact of our bad habits//traits and to preserve the original good qualities of our basic human nature and of our great creations.
May 3 2013: I agree. The process you describe is most fully described in the Bible.
All things are born fresh, new, exciting, and good. As time passes, things serve their purpose, then they outlive it, loose freshness, excitement, glitter, etc., become dull, then decay, turn ugly, and die, and new things are born from them. This happened to civilizations, social structures, religions, ideologies. Some things have longer life cycle than others. Religions seem to last for millenia. Ideologies (Marxism, Nazism, etc.) - for a few decades. Social structures such as feudalism and capitalism - several centuries. All of them too long for a single generation to witness the full cycle. But there is no doubt in my mind that capitalism will be replaced by something else. It's already very different than 100 or even 30 years ago.
It is very possible that Marx was right in a sense that development of productive forces will lead to socialism (when society will be able to guarantee basic income to everyone - this seems to be happening) and, eventually, communism, when money becomes obsolete and people will not *have* to work to live comfortably. He may have been right about the result, but not about the way. I don't think, class struggle, revolution, and dictatorship of proletariat is the way to such society. I think, it needs to be some sort of "spiritual awakening", some sort of belief system - not instilled from outside, by the government or organized traditional religion, but growing from within, much like the biblical "kingdom of heaven". Too bad, religions tend to follow the same basic pattern that you outlined.
May 3 2013: Amazing!!! Yubal. I am referring to this; What was once new and fresh beginning turns gradually into routine, many times a boring routine. And so in such climate these followers tend to twist or misuse those great systems//ways//creations of the original founders. I say that this occurs due to the human basic traits of greed, ego-centrism, selfishness....etc
This is an absolutely brilliant observation. But might I suggest another reason for it? If there is one thing that man has truly mastered, it is his undeniable ability to forget. And perhaps, that forgetting in itself, is a natural part, not without reason, of a much larger process playing itself out. A verse in a much larger and much more subtle symphony.
Yubal, I believe you are onto something here. :)
May 8 2013: I think Marx ought to be looked at purely from an historical perspective. He could never have imagined the kind of technological innovations we have today.
Back then a lot of manual labour was required so someone had to be mugged into doing it.
Most things are mechanised, most labour intensive jobs have disappeared so we ought to be sharing the work load and spreading the wealth.

%\ Ik Fruit Grower* A | Promise k kJBumpej\Cro\ BO> X ELDER COUNTV \lggij RARM BUREAU NEWS Vol/T\ \\v^ Brigham City, Utah, June 1, 1917 Farmers Estimate Best Crop in Years 3^ No. 1 ^PROJECTS FOR 1917 By ROBERT H. STEWART. At the first meeting of the Box Elder County Farm Bureau, held at Tremonton, December 16, 1916, six county agricultural projects were chosen, namely, "Dairying," "Alfalfa Weevil," "Dry Farming," "Sugar Beets," "Pure Bred Sires" and "Standardization of Crops." Dairying should be a very big factor for the county because of the position it holds in the field of agriculture. More fertility is needed to build up and maintain the soil for the great diversity of soil-robbing crops raised, to supply sufficient dairy products for at least home consumption, to supply the young people of the families with labor, and to furnish funds for running expenses each month. Approximately seventy-five dairy animals have been and will be shipped into the county this year by the County Farm Bureau. A written copy of the alfalfa weevil project is furnished each Farm Bureau member. Every farmer will be asked to co-operate and the best possible methods known will be used to prevent its ravages. Dry farming here is an industry of great magnitude—an empire in scope and producing power. Every valuable method will be applied according to type of soil. The sugar beet crop is one of much valuation as a cash crop in this county. In growing the crop, soil fertility and increased yields must be the farmers' watchword. Pure-bred sires should be encouraged for both the farm and range. A live stock exchange will be formed throughout the county. The farmer is encouraged to standardize his farm crops. Better and less varieties should be the county's slogan. FIRST EDITION We have a feeling that with this first edition of the Farm Bureau Xews and the numbers which are to follow (one the first of each month), the members of the Farm Bureau are going to get better acquainted with the county officers and the county agent. Box Elder County is one of the largest in the state. Many people live here at distances of 100 to 200 miles or more. One man cannot find time to visit and call on such large numbers scattered over so big a county more than once or twice a year. But with the aid of a paper such as this he can come in contact with unlimited numbers. And they in the exchange of ideas can come in contact with him and with each other. This paper does not belong to one man or a few. It belongs to all members of the Farm Bureau. It is your paper. Use it. If you have something to sell or exchange, put it in the paper. If you have a new idea of value to other farmers, publish it. If you can co-operate with several others, do it. In short, this first edition offers many new and better things. It stands for up-to-date and progressive movements in agriculture. WHERE DOES BOX ELDER COUNTY STAND? Men in a position to give expert information on the subject tell us the present world's war is to be won on the farms and not in the trenches. If this is true, every farmer producing more grain and bigger and better crops this year is aiding in winning the war for democracy. On the other hand, every farmer failing to cultivate properly, and keep down weeds and trash where wheat and corn should be growing, is aiding Germany in this great struggle. On whose side are you? ROBERT H. STEWART Box Elder County First HISTORY OF FARM BUREAU ORGANIZATION By JOHN P. HOLMGREEN, President Farm Bureau. Through the efforts of Engineer J. C. Wheelon and a few other citizens, the County Commissioners, in 1916, consented to engage a County Farm Bureau agent, whose duty it would be to instruct and encourage the farmers in more efficient and practical methods of agriculture and horticulture; also a better and greater production of live stock. Some of our people, from the standpoint of economy, thinking our taxes would be increased beyond our ability to meet requirements, reluctantly consented, but nevertheless agreed that a general meeting should be called by the county commissioners for the discussion of the advisability of creating a County Farm Bureau. On December 16, 1916, at Tremonton, representatives from nearly all parts of the county were present at a meeting, where Dr. R. J. Evans explained to them the deep interest the government and Agricultural college had to educate the farmers to produce greater crop yields by following more modern and scientific agricultural methods of efficiency. By a unanimous vote the bureau was organized and the Farm Bureau JOHN P. HOLMGREEN

Our cars become ovens in the summer. The United Kingdom is going through a rare heat wave and unfortunately the island's dog owners continue leaving their friends in cars resulting in tragic deaths.
The greenhouse effect can raise a car's temperature to unlivable standards in minutes. Even if you crack a window or leave a bowl of water for them, dogs can die from heatstroke and that's not a comfortable way to pass.
I can't pick on the Brits alone because dogs are dying in cars this summer in the United States too. It's an avoidable tragedy and owners can face charges for their negligence.
Dogs, of course, wear a fur coat year round and while it can help with cooling a little a dogs best mechanism for cooling lie in their feet. According to veterinarians, dogs sweat through their foot pads.
They release heat by panting, a clear sign your dog needs relief.
And while Britain's heat wave is not the norm even a cloudy day can claim a dog's life if left in a car.
Never, ever leave a dog in a car. And if your dog is tied up outdoors make sure it's in shade with plenty of water in a bowl they can't tip over or on a leash that can shorten around a tree or post.

text: Just as someone who follows my photography was asking me for my camera settings when I took this lightning shot...I stopped them to say "there's no ONE and only ONE setting for shooting lightning pics." Think about what happens when storms come and go. The light changes radically. Even if it's pretty dark outside..you can snap a lot of dark pictures if the lightning is fairly small and blown out and way too bright if there's tons of lightning. So what do you do?? Observe, test shots, and prepare to change your camera settings to adjust to the changing light. I started at ISO 400, Aperture at f3.5, Exposure Compensation at -.3 while using a Nikon 10-24mm lens wide open at 10mm. Also..I set my camera on manual with the shutter set on "bulb" so I could push down the shutter...try and get a lightning pic and then release the shutter. Pics were turning out way to bright..I had to turn down something..so I set my ISO at 160, my fstop at 6.3 and dropped my exposure compensation down to -2.3..which is a lot. It darkened up the sky..made the lightning "pop" more..and I kept clicking to get this kind of lightning shot. There are tons of different ways to get lightning pics and lots of different settings to try...that is sooo the point!! Be flexible..find a starting point and keep your eye on the amount of light you see in the storm. And the main thing...BE SAFE OUT THERE!!! Good Luck...may the force be with you!!!

Rated 4 out of 5Â by Spinniker Excellent shirt, but... Hi bought this shirt for my running workouts by the night, and have two negative things about it, the first is the sleeves are too long, they cover all my hands and I don't like this detail, the other thing that disappointed me and the most important was the reflective details, just the adidas logo in the chest and two little stripes, one in each sleeve aren't enough for a night runner like me, the shirt has no reflective details in the back. Except for that, the shirt is great for running! February 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by OhioPete Perfect for fall running Slightly loose fit but not baggy. Very comfortable in cool fall weather for running. Sleeves stay down and the material keeps you dry. October 14, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by JimT Climatecool Long Sleeve T - good fit and wear The Climatecool Tee shirt is true to its size description and was comfortable to wear when I was exercising. I wear this Tee shirt over an under layer tee-shirt and I find the Climatecool Tee to fit nicely over the under layer giving me a comfortable feel while keeping me warm during a workout and after my workout. Often I will exit the gym wearing just the Climatecool (over the under layer) and I will not feel chilled by the winter air. Additionally, it was easy to move around during my exercise routines with the Climatecool Tee shirt on and I did not feel restricted by the shirt when I wore it running outside. Additionally, I felt the shirt kept me warm while running during the winter (temperatures were around 30 degrees F). In addition, after washing the Climatecool Tee shirt several times, it still fit comfortably, the color was still as good as when I bought the shirt, and the shirt did not show any indication of wear. Overall, it is a good quality item that I enjoy wearing and the price is reasonable compared to over similar items. I like the shirt. February 26, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by jloc Awesome shirt Nice and light and fits great. The fit is a snug fit, not quite slim fit. However, the movement is relax and comfortable. It looks great as well no matter what you do in it. October 23, 2013

The Acadia National Park quarter is the third to be released in 2012 and the 13th overall in the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program. This bag is filled with 100 Acadia National Park quarters minted on the main production floor of the United States Mint at Philadelphia, each bearing the "P" mint mark.
The reverse (tails side) image depicts a view of the Bass Harbor Head Lighthouse and Acadia's rough coastline. The design captures many representative elements of Acadia: the coastline, the lighthouse, the pine trees and the ocean. Inscriptions are ACADIA, MAINE, 2012 and E PLURIBUS UNUM. Design candidates were developed in consultation with representatives of Acadia National Park. Each coin in the series features a common obverse (heads) with the 1932 portrait of George Washington by John Flanagan, restored to bring out subtle details and the beauty of the original model. Inscriptions are UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, LIBERTY, IN GOD WE TRUST and QUARTER DOLLAR.
There are no mintage limits.
There are no order limits.
Please allow approximately one to two (1-2) weeks for shipping of in-stock products.
In 2010, the United States Mint launched the America the Beautiful Quarters® Program, a 12-year initiative with 56 quarter-dollar coins featuring reverse designs depicting some of our most cherished national parks and other national sites. Under this program, the United States Mint will issue five new quarter designs per year, with one final design in 2021.
Awed by its beauty and diversity, early 20th-century visionaries donated the land on the rugged coast of Maine that became Acadia National Park, the first national park east of the Mississippi River. The park is home to the tallest mountain on the U.S. Atlantic Coast. Visitors come to Acadia to hike over granite peaks, bike on historic carriage roads and enjoy the spectacular scenery. It was first established as a national site on July 8, 1916 (39 Stat. 1785).
The United States Mint will accept and fulfill orders beginning June 11, 2012, at noon (ET). The Acadia National Park quarter bags and rolls will be available for one year after this date. To ensure that all members of the public have fair and equal access to United States Mint products, any order placed prior to the official on-sale date and time shall not be deemed accepted by the United States Mint and will not be honored.

The Curiosity Shop to suspend operations
Fact Box
• The Curiosity Shop opened its doors in 1998.• It has been at its current location on Park Avenue for two years. • The shop was located previously on Laurens Street and Richland Avenue.
"It's kind of bittersweet," said Heaton, who said the business will not be closing. "We're going to evaluate what we're doing."
The decision to suspend operations was based on a number of variables, but increased competition from other grocery stores who began carrying merchandise that was once unique to The Curiosity Shop, a changing marketplace and consumer convenience, were among the reasons the retailer decided to re-evaluate.
"It's just easier for people to pick something up when they're shopping than it is to go out of their way and come here," said Heaton, who said The Curiosity Shop's pricing was competitive with that of its rivals. "A lot of the specialty items that we have traditionally sold in the past, you can now get in other places."
A loyal clientele both locally and from places as far away as Charleston and Atlanta patronize the establishment, which has moved several times during its tenure in the downtown shopping district. The Curiosity Shop has been at its present location for the past two years. The store's warmth and inviting presence, coupled with the Dickens Cafe, an amenity that was new to the Park Avenue locale, made it a popular destination. The Curiosity Shop will continue to serve Aiken in some capacity, whether it be downtown or another location, said Heaton.
"We've always been supportive of downtown; even when opportunities have arisen other places, we wanted to stay downtown," said Heaton. "One of the reasons we called it The Curiosity Shop is because we could sell whatever we wanted."
