Post subject: Help wanted
So I've been a bit of a ghost, then again, I've been running around the world for the past two months, still not home yet, but what the hay. So I was wondering if anyone at Rogue Base could help me with a little project.
This is the first time I've posted this here, but I'm buying a plane. I've got my Private License, and have 150 hours total time, with about 100 hours as Pilot in Command, and it's getting to the point where it's cheaper for me to operate my own plane than it is to rent one. So I'm looking for help coming up with a paint scheme for the plane. I was wondering if anyone here had any suggestions. The plane right now is painted up in Japan AirLines colors because JAL used to own and operate it via their subsidiary company, JALux Americas. They used it to train JAL pilots because it's easier, faster, and cheaper to get ratings in America than it is in Japan.

Maybe red and white like the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class interceptor, or blue and white of the Mark III... Or go stealth mode and all black... probably not allowed for planes though...

I could, but it would reclass it as an experimental aircraft.

Acutally, there are a lot of planes painted in gloss black. Do you happen to have any photos of the Delta 7 and Mark III?

Tag: playoff schedule
Buy Low, Sell High: 2010-11 Fantasy Basketball Playoff Schedule Preview
by Jason on Feb.18, 2011, under Quick hits
[Read the full post at DimeMag.com]
Fantasy playoffs are right around the corner, with most playoff matchups beginning in Week 21 (3/14) or Week 22 (3/21). This means most fantasy owners who are still in contention for a playoff spot in their leagues should start pondering whether or not they want to swing some deals to bulk up their teams' schedules during that all-important stretch of the season. In essence, fantasy owners should see this as another way of buying low (on players whose teams have favorable fantasy playoff schedules) and selling high (on players whose teams have weak fantasy playoff schedules).
Below is a quick rundown of how many games each team plays in Weeks 21-25 (Week 25 might be combined with Week 24 in leagues that play to the very end of the NBA regular season). (continue reading…)

6AWG romex is only good for 50 amps.
You can put romex in conduit but it is a royal pain. Better to set a junction box and splice the wires in conduit to the romex in said box.
1" conduit would be ok for 6 or 4AWG if you use a properly sized equipment grounding conductor.

400 New Jersey Ave NW, Washington, DC | Directions 2000138.895250 -77.011231
Daily 24 Hours
Neighborhoods: Northwest, Downtown, Northwest Washington
Beware of leaving your bags in "bag check". Our family reserved 3 rooms and had a big dinner at the Hyatt. We were rewarded with very bad service. We were in town for the Marine Corp Marathon; we needed to have our bags checked till we got back from the race after check-out. A complimentary service provided by the Hyatt. Well, here is the fine print. Make sure you inspect each bag and double check you have all your bags. One of our bags did not come home with us and we did not realize it till we unloaded the van 60 minutes later. A two month process of being passed from the Hyatt assistant manager, to the Hyatt Regency head of security (to review the video tapes), then finally to corporate Hyatt and their insurance claim desk. Essentially we received a nicely worded corporate letter stating that Hyatt has no responsibility for lost baggage per a Washington DC statute that we should have been aware of. So bottom line is the Hyatt employees either gave our bag to someone else or it was stolen. The Hyatt has pretty much said that we can pound sand. So it's my duty to warn the 30,000 Marine Corp Marathon runners and their families to think twice about staying here if they intend to check their bags while at the race.
Nice location – Let me start out by mentioning that this hotel is in a great location. It's close to both the Capitol building and the Metro station. However, while the rooms were clean and the hotel was nice inside, it was not very well run. Each staff member seemed to be confused as to what their particular duties were, especially the concierge service area.
We booked this hotel online and ordered the Amour package for our second night, which includes champagne, strawberries and two complimentary breakfasts. We didn't hear anything about this until we went and asked the concierge the second night at about 8pm. They didn't have a clue what we were talking about and couldn't find the order in their system. Then another person said that the Amour package was a Valentine's Day special and they didn't offer it anymore, even though it is listed on the hotel's website as a regular package. After a bit of running around to the amenities person and back to the concierge, they finally delivered the champagne and strawberries later that night. It was just a bit frustrating knowing that we wouldn't have received what we paid for had we not inquired about it.
The other thing I would like to mention is that the hotel bills itself as the "premier luxury hotel in downtown Washington DC." This was hard to believe given the astounding amount of children that were present during our stay. I have no problem with children. I do, however, have a problem being outnumbered by children 2 to 1 at 11:30pm in the hotel's bar area. It's hard to enjoy a quiet drink with your significant other when you have toddlers and 6 year-olds running past you constantly. I don't fault the children, I fault the parents. And that's who you will be sharing this hotel with; parents who take their kids to the hotel bar at 11:30 in the evening.
Despite the overall tone of this review, I would say that this is still a good hotel if you don't set your expectations too high. If you're just looking for a place in a nice location where you can sleep well after a long day of walking through the city, then it will suit you just fine.
Upscale hotel's comfortable rooms and modern business facilities appeal to both business and leisure travelers. – In Short
Soon after the first Hyatt hotel opened in Los Angeles in 1957, Hyatt hotels and resorts became known for their dramatic atrium lobbies and their ability to express local flavor. Rooms feature beds with Sealy brand mattresses and down comforters, flat-screen TVs with cable access, wireless Internet, iPod-adaptable alarm clock/radios, Starbucks coffee and Portico bath products. Travelers enjoy the convenience of hotel and airline check-in kiosks, fitness facilities, multiple business centers and ample meeting spaces.

Contact: David Gerstenfeld, Assistant Director
Statutory Authority: ORS 657.601
Duties and Responsibilities: Unemployment Insurance benefits replace part of the income lost when workers become unemployed through no fault of their own. This softens the impact job losses have on workers and their communities. The division is responsible for paying benefits to eligible claimants in an accurate and timely manner, deciding eligibility issues, discouraging fraud, and collecting taxes to fund the program.
The money used to pay Oregon unemployment insurance benefits comes from Oregon employers' state payroll taxes. The taxes collected are deposited in a trust fund used to pay unemployment insurance benefits to unemployed Oregon workers. Benefit payments totaled over $1.9 billion in 2011.

Duties and Responsibilities: The division's team of economists, workforce analysts and researchers collect and analyze statewide and regional labor market information and help organizations and businesses apply it. Analysts provide concise, up-to-date information about the local and state economies and their effects on the workforce. Research staff studies labor force and related topics, supplies data and analysis to new and expanding firms, and analyzes occupational supply and demand, which is gathered through surveys sent to employers. Besides offering general information, staff is available to produce special reports upon request. Businesses, in turn, use this labor market information to identify challenges and opportunities. Economic development planners, educators and training providers, job applicants, legislators and the news media also regularly rely on this information to learn about workforce issues that affect Oregonians.

Overnight Sensation1 of 9
By Sally Waydka
Want to get clearer skin, softer feet and more lustrous hair—all while you're lying in bed? These ten nighttime treatments give new meaning to the term "beauty sleep."
Pillow Talk2 of 9
This ingenious pillowcase turns your ordinary pillow into an overnight wrinkle fighter. How? It's woven with copper oxide, an ingredient that may help increase collagen production and fill in fine lines. As long as your skin's always in contact with the pillowcase as you doze, you should notice smoother, more youthful looking skin over time.
SHOP NOW: Illuminage Skin Rejuvenating Pillowcase, $60, neimanmarcus.com
Seeing Red3 of 9
In winter, skin is prone to redness and irritation from sun exposure and wind. When your complexion's acting up, try a gel like Murad's cooling formula. Peppermint oil and witch hazel, two anti-inflammatory ingredients often used to treat conditions like bug bites and diaper rash, work to calm the irritated areas.
SHOP NOW: Overnight soothing gel, $30, murad.com
In Time4 of 9
Thanks to a time-release formula, this Merle Norman cream delivers a smaller dose of ingredients over a longer period of time, so it's more evenly distributed throughout the skin overnight. According to the brand's own studies, after four weeks, testers saw skin firmness and elasticity increase by 48 percent, and moisture levels by 50 percent.
SHOP NOW: Nighttime recovery creme, $46, merlenorman.com
Get Strong5 of 9
When your hair's in a weakened state—often the result of mistreatment like overprocessing and overexposure to heat styling tools—it breaks easily. L'Oréal's overnight treatment is designed to strengthen your strands over time, and leave your hair smelling great.
SHOP NOW: L'Oréal Paris Everstrong Overnight Repair Treatment, $9, amazon.com
Lighten Up6 of 9
Using a vitamin C–infused brightening formula, Korres's at-home facial treatment helps fade dark spots while you catch some zzz's. The best part? According to the brand, it's made with 95 percent natural ingredients, so it smells amazing.
SHOP NOW: Korres Wild Rose + Vitamin C Advanced Brightening Sleeping Facial, $48, sephora.com
Smooth Operator7 of 9
Smoothing retinol products speed up skin-cell turnover, but they can also lead to flaky red skin—especially if your skin's sensitive. Thankfully, Dr. Brandt's retinol serum also contains shea butter and jojoba oil to lessen the drying side effects.
SHOP NOW: Dr. Brandt Skincare overnight resurfacing serum, $85, sephora.com
Feet First8 of 9
No matter how cute your nail art is, dry, cracked feet will detract from your pedicure. Instead of the old-fashioned method—applying Vaseline to your feet, then slipping into cotton socks—try Bliss's socks, which are lined with jojoba and olive oils to soothe soles and hydrate heels. They can work their magic in just 20 minutes, but leave them on all night for even better results.
SHOP NOW: Bliss softening socks, $52, nordstrom.com
Dry Spell9 of 9
When skin is seriously dehydrated, a dab of moisturizer morning and night may not be enough. Apply AmorePacific's liquid-gel mask to clean skin right before bed. Instead of distilled water (the most common ingredient in gel masks), the mask's main ingredient is bamboo sap, which helps draw moisture into your skin. Simply wash it off the next morning for a refreshed glow.

In short: Friendly race, but needs a few tweaks now it's grownIn full: My second time at this race, (2012/2013) and was just using it as a long, social run - with a chance to enjoy the drinks on the second half.As such - I didn't mind the bottlenecks, or missing the start but can imagine that this would annoy a lot of people, especially those gunning for a time.As others have said - it's December, in England, on the South Coast... Expect the weather to be bad! I got diverted at the end and ended up running around the streets of Portsmouth - apparently we got lost and did a bit extra but I must admit I didn't notice.The bag drop needs improving - maybe put the baggage label in the runners pack, (and make it the same number as the race number - giving out little raffle tickets with a random number on is a recipe for disaster, where are we supposed to put it - and keep it dry?)Oh - and yes, more loos please... The portaloos at halfway were unusable and caused many people to have to divert into the bushes on the return leg!Other than that - I thought the marshals were fab, the aid stations well stocked and friendly and an excellent goodie bag. Worth the trip down, thanks PortsmouthDate of review: December 24, 2013
In short: Well done ChesterIn full: I can only echo what has already been said.Silky smooth, over the start line in 8 seconds from the sub 3:15 pen. A bit muddy on the racecourse for the first 800m or-so, through Chester town centre and then out onto a rural loop coming back to the racecourse. More undulating then I thought it was going to be, not maybe not the all-time fastest course out there, but definitely PB potential.Great organisation, closed roads, loads of well stocked aid stations and decent support and a nice goodie bag and long-sleeved technical T make this one of the best UK road marathons I've done.Well done Chester, you have a gem of a marathon..l don't go changing :-)Date of review: October 8, 2012
In short: Just do it...! Adidas-styleIn full: I ran solo - words cannot describe the experience... something every runner should try - either solo or part of a relay team.Everything was amazing - the course, organisation, marshals, fellow runners. Can't wait until next year Date of review: August 1, 2011
In short: Brilliant trail half marathonIn full: Forget chasing PB's - this one is all about stamina and enjoying the journey through the Wyre forest.The first 2 miles are downhill, then it's 11.1 miles of uphill with the occasional bit of downhill thrown in. Surface is hard-packed trail and rough bridle-way which could be muddy in wet weather, though not this year.Less than a tenner for a quality half - decent medal, flapjaack and water at the finish... What more do you need?Date of review: July 11, 2011
In short: A great way to spend a Sunday morningIn full: I did this in 2010 and had no hesitation in coming back for this year!Excellent atmposphere and well marshalled on a course that's just challenging enough - 2 decent hills to tackle with fast downhill sections to look forward to.I'll definitely be back next year!Date of review: May 9, 2011
In short: Respectable rolling rural road raceIn full: Well organised road race on mainly country lanes which I think were closed - if not were very quiet as I can't remember any traffic passing!The marshals were friendly and supporting at key locations, great crowd support at the end an a surprisingly decent goody bag for finishers.Really enjoyable morning and a credit to Lichfield. My only negative comment would be that there was no directions back to the car park at the start, (about a mile from the finish)Date of review: May 1, 2011
In short: Two laps along the coastal path in the sunIn full: On the same course as the Llanelli half marathon the Great Welsh Marathon is another excellent fairly low-key event from Human Being Active.The course is a 2-loop out-and-back from the start so very easy to break up into 4 manageable chunks of around 10k a piece. Water stations are frequent - but a couple are too close together for my liking with under 2 miles separating them.Great scenery, fairly twisty course with some mild undulations which keeps it interesting but not too painful. Great and very funny personalised commentary at halfway and the finish made me laugh... Friendly support from the marshals and spectators was also great!As one of the winners said, "why bother with London? Come and do this one instead"!Date of review: April 10, 2011
In short: Excellent, well organised and fun trail raceIn full: Really enjoyed this one - it made a change from running around a city centre or rural country lanes. Excellent organisation and parking, (for me) 25 yards from the finish line! Chip pickup was quick and efficient, water stations every 3 miles and well marshalled. Crowd support at various points throughout the course was good and excellent at the finish.Course is undulating with some fairly short, steep sections but otherwise a really good mix of up and down. I thought it might be a bit congested but it seemed OK for me finishing in the 1:40 crowd.Definitely one to do again next year for a change from the usual road stuff...Date of review: March 27, 2011
In short: Friendly 20-miler which has it allIn full: I can only echo the praise of others...!Well organised with friendly and supportive marshals, lots of drinks stations including sports drink and gels and an excellent T-Shirt makes this a brilliant race.I know the Taff Trail but wasn't expecting the diversion up that hill at Mile 8 - who thought that was a good idea then? Date of review: March 20, 2011
In short: Almost perfect race on an almost perfect day...In full: My first time at Rhayader and it didn't disappoint. Organisation was excellent with race numbers picked up quickly, (though it could have been made more obvious in the sports hall which queue was which?) Parking in the finish area was brilliant - my car was 10 metres from the finish line!Race started promptly and was excellently kept going by friendly marshals and frequent water stations, (approx every 3 miles) I managed to steal some jelly babies off children on the way around so they helped to keep the sugar levels up!Now - "that" hill at the start - painful, yes - but worth it... And I'd rather have it at the start than at the end! Somehow I managed to gain back the time I lost in the first 5 miles and come in 3 minutes off my 20-mile PB.Weather was glorious, perfect for running! Finishers T-Shirt not technical but fits well and is of good quality which makes a change!Definitely one to put on the calendar to do again...Date of review: March 19, 2011

Olympic Committee Confirms It Will Punish Athletes Who Support LGBT Rights In Russia
The International Olympic Committee has confirmed a fear that has overcome the LGBT and sports communities this month: a provision in the IOC charter that calls for the punishment of athletes who make political or religious displays will be enforced during the 2014 Winter Olympics.
When asked if the IOC planned to create a "safe space" of sorts for LGBT and allied athletes, journalists, contractors and other foreigners visiting Russia for the Olympics, officials told Gay Star News, "Regarding your suggestions, the IOC has a clear rule laid out in the Olympic Charter (Rule 50) which states that the venues of the Olympic Games are not a place for proactive political or religious demonstration."
While we're on the subject of rule 50 in the Olympic Charter (which states "no kind of demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda is permitted in any Olympic sites, venues or other areas"), the IOC has confirmed that it will indeed enforce it against displays of support for the LGBT community at the games in Sochi.
"This rule has been in place for many years and applied when necessary," the IOC told GSN. "In any case, the IOC would treat each case individually and take a sensible approach depending on what was said or done."
Gay Olympic speed skater Blake Skjellerup has already pledged, along with other athletes, to show Pride during the Opening Ceremonies by wearing a rainbow pin, a display that now may have him in trouble with Russian authorities and the Olympic Committee.
i don't think many of you are understanding this. Its not about parading about "our sex lives" (I mean who does that anyway?) - its about putting human rights, before prejudice. Putin has ruled against gay people. Is that okay? did we think it was okay when Hitler was against Jews? just because we aren't Jewish, does a Jewish person not have the right to do Jewish things? Lets face it, the reason there is homophobia is because we think about sex. "how people have sex". Surely therefore people like Putin, are more scared that they cannot stop thinking about those two guys fucking? that's a question that I would ask of all those on here who say "look, i have no problem with gays....but". If you genuinely think we should stand silently as Putin and his mob of biggoted fools, terrorize a group of people merely because of their sexual preference then lets go backwards, lets have a partied, lets revisit slave ships, lets experiment on people with deformities. ITS WRONG. gay/straight/bi/trans. whatever, discrimination, is... a Crime. Whether you salute with pride, or cannot stop thinking about what two people do in bed, its wrong to stop people from being free.
B-b-b-but they keep pushing their gayness in my face! All the time! Everywhere I go...gay this, gay that. Grown men in pink, frilly panties....they're all up in my face pushing their gay sex down my throat. I just don't like it. It's too much for me to handle, it's too different, it's too much freedom.
This is America, but when you push your agenda down other peoples' throats( I and others can't really make a case for this argument in any reasonable way because our argument is solely based on a biased point of view stemming from fear, ignorance, anger and hatred - you know everything Jesus WASN'T about ) then you lose your right to fight for freedoms of a maligned and subjugated group of American citizens. Makes sense to me.
It took me one sentence to realize you were being sarcastic; there's hope for the world yet.
You are such an unbelievably ignorant tool! Not only is your mind so narrow that your perception of gay people is that of the mannerism camp! Not only does this not apply to all gay people of the world, myself included, straight men can also display this mannerism.
What about all of the heterosexual crap all over? Sex scenes in movies, magazines, reality TV? Again you say gay people shove this down your throat. You refer to the portion of the population who do overly exhibit it. This also applies to heterosexuals too and again... NOT all! Reverse your argument and read it as someone saying straight people have too many freedoms and shouldn't walk around flaunting it and should have less rights! Do you like that? Also as for wearing pink and frilly panties I think you are referring to transvestites which also is not a homosexual thing! Stright men also can be transvestites. The trouble with alot of the ignorant bigoted people in this world is like you they label gays and apply a lot of labels to us that don't apply. Yes granted some gay people might fit into these other labels but that isn't because they are gay, that's a whole different aspect of their personality.
So please do yourself a favour and open your mind and maybe you won't sound like such a dumbass in future!
Pushing gayness down your throat? Frilly panties? LOL! Last I checked "straightness" was being pushed down my throat. Everywhere I look...Straights! People in Northface Jackets! Everywhere! OMG!!! Grow the fuck up!
Really? Gay men in pink panties pushing their sex down my throat ?
jeez man where do you hang out? I I need to go there.
"Everywhere I go...gay this, gay that. Grown men in pink, frilly panties....they're all up in my face pushing their gay sex down my throat"
Er, where the Hell are you going exactly???? Is this a real comment? Hmmm?
If so then erm...gosh! Would you care to give some examples? It sounds suspiciously like you have just made all that up in your tiny little brain to convince yourself that you are the victim of something-or-other(?) and you therefore have a right to go out fag bashing...and where will that end ni*gers, women? etc.
Look away then..it's that easy...
Pushing an agenda down somebodys throat? And thats not what the straight community has been doing since forever? Take a look around you and imagine how you would interpret the world if you were gay. Is it ok to do it aslong as a majority considers it ok, but when a minority does, it suddenly becomes offensive?
It had to read this comment three times before realizing it's a parody.
Why can't people just respect the rules of the land they are venturing? If they can't then they should not participate in the olympics. I wish all these LGBT supporters would just die quietly in a corner
For pete's sake... Would you firstly make the connection that its the very fact that putin has segregated a populus of his country because of how they were born and now live and that he is encouraging brutality via neglegence for unsolicited reasons that is getting the world ( &lbgt folk up in arms) not specifically the olympics taking place....
However given the games are taking place has just firmly put the microscope on russias politics and is now making a very clear example of them and how the modern world deals with such issues....
NO we wont just curl up and die in a corner so you do t have to be slightly inconvienienced by it. How about you squat up on your facts, engage brain and realise that just ignoring a problem wont solve it !
I think u'd be pretty pissed if you were criminalised for somthing such as the colour of your eyes ? ( sounds daft doesnt it?)
It's about standing up for human rights. I would advise you to read this before you make anymore outlandish comments:
Standing up for human rights...what about the rights of our kids to not have to see this crap everywhere they go? What about our rights as Christians to not have to cater to everything that they want? They can spew hate but the moment that someone stands up for their beliefs and their rights what happens? we are labled biggots...homophobs...and any other cruel word out there...grow up...we don't HAVE to support you...we don't HAVE to condone what you do...we don't HAVE to accept you!
What about the rights of your kids to grow up without discrimination, alienation, or abuse? That one's nice, isnt it? Well unfortunately if your kid is gay, most likely that isnt going to be the case. And I'm sure you couldnt fathom your child being gay, but thats the thinking thats going to make him or her suffer and resent your narrow-minded thinking.
And unfortunately, being Christian gives you no special rights. I think it was the Crusades that effectively proved to the modern world such an idea is abysmal.
Yea and what about gay people's kids not having to have their parents discriminated and beaten? The whole world doesn't revolve around your bible and not everyone is religious. I don't try and say you shouldn't go to church because god doesn't exist therefore don't tell be I cannot live my lifestyle and do so with the basic human rights. Understand the discrimination instead of hiding behind your ignorance and man made bible!
LOL, mouth breathing mental midgets like you are ALWAYS good for a laugh. Thanks for the funny, Cleetus!!
I agree with the Olympic Committee. Don't hate anyone but really tired of people pushing their sex life into everything they do. Haven't there always been gays in the Olympics? And haven't they always been treated like everyone else? Why does everything always have to be about homosexuals? If I were a homo I'd be embarrassed by the vanity that struts about in my name.
I am reminded of the way we all felt about sporting events in apartheid South Africa... I am straight, but I still feel that Russia is a barbaric and dangerous place that has gone too far. This isn't about gays, this IS about the freedom to be what you are, without fear of state sponsored terror.
First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.
...and there is something of the 'Nazi', about all of this...
Communists imprisoned gays. Besides invading other countries(like America is doing now), bombing and killing entire social classes(like America is doing now), and imposing their political system by force(like America is doing now).
Yes, there is something to do with the German's workers' party about all this... you're a moron.
First they came for the right wing, I did not speak out because I was part of the right wing(the Silver Legion of America, British Union of Fascists and many others).
Then they came out for the Christians, I did not speak out because I wasn't a Christian.
Then they came out for the conservatives and Europeans, I did not speak out because I wasn't a conservative or European.
Then they came out for me because I didn't support liberal extremist ideas of destroying everything and every value in which the real world was made(not some socialist-communist bs that couldn't even last little more than half century even in a conservative form), and there was nobody left to oppose them.
...and there is something of the "liberal trash" about all of this...
Imagine an athlete wins a gold medal in her field and when the press comes to interview her, she thanks her wife for the support she has given her during all the hard training. Imagine that athlete being arrested for flaunting her lifestyle on international media.
This is not an issue of pushing anyones sex lives on anyone else. It's about equal human rights. Right to love and right to speak up about that love. Gay athletes should have an equal right to that.
@'Real Man' If you were ACTUALLY a "real man" - WITH a brain (or even a lick of common sense) you would realize this has NOTHING to do with our 'sex lives'! This is a 100% Human Rights issue!
PLEASE ... for the Love of God -- Get a clue & get CURRENT ... BEFORE you open your mouth and say ANOTHER stupid thing!
The fact you felt you have to call yourself "A Real Man" tells me you have issues.
I agree that the Olympics shouldn't necessarily be a platform to protest from BUT... Imagine for a moment that suddenly you (heterosexual) were informed by the state that any form of relationship you've been engaging in whether it were sexual or purely romantic was declared illegal. Imagine that to even speak of heterosexual love was a federal offense. Imagine that vigilantes in the community were pretending to be sympathetic to heteros only to entrap you, pull you out into the streets, beat you, spit on you, torture you, pepper spray you and proudly post the videos on youtube. Would you not hope for some kind of support from your global brethran. This isn't about gays advertising to the world that they're gay and proud. This is about showing solidarity and doing anything you can to help people in need. If you've been an out gay couple for 30 years in a committed relationship, would you not be absolutely heartbroken by this new law?
Many countries have anti-gay laws, but most of them have been that way for centuries. Russia is a high profile case because they took the insane step to roll human rights BACKWARD. Also the world is watching Russia right now, so it is the perfect time to raise awareness of the unbelievable steps BACKWARD they are taking.
This isn't a "I'm gay look at me!" issue. This is a "Oh my god! murder in the streets based on sexual preference!!" issue. There is NOTHING shameful about it. These are people's children, cousins, and parents being beaten and killed.
I disagree. This has little to do with anyones "sex life", as you call it, but more with everyones personal right to be whoever they want to be without having to fear political repression. Its not the homos pushing their sex life into everything but the russian government pushing their moral values (which are entirely motivated by fear of their own, though not necessarily homosexual, sexuality) into peoples lifes. If you want sports without politics, go beat a WR in a world championship. The entire idea if the Olympics is highly political and if, as a competitor, you put your own safetiy or your carreer above that, youre just a f ucking idiot.
The olymipcs will be held in a country were gays get beat up, tortured, humiliated and have less rights than straights, it has nothing to do with the athletes but it would be nice if they showed solidarity with the gays in Russia that are suffering.But i assume by your comment you dont care about the gays that are suffering in Russia because you're tried of hearing about gays all the time.
I have nothing against gays, but god this "we will put our happy rainbow flag in any possible spot on your face" is more than a good reason not to like anything related to this shit.
Olympic games are about games (and politics, yes), not about the rights or wishes of humans of the same sex who think it is perfectly alright for everyone around to know they are gay.
Thanks, but no.
I would agree with you if they would not face prosecution and worse in Russia. Only using those displays they can show the bigotry that rules there and, in the long run, do something against it.
I agree I too do not have any malice towards any LGBT person I think they are awesome and extremely strong and awesome people. With that being said, straight people do not flaunt being straight. There is no straight badge of honor or straight version of a rainbow. I believe keeping religious, political, and sexual preference out of the Olympics is important though because some people don't know how to act, and if you are intelligent enough to desire peace then why intentionally do something that might disrupt it regardless of whether you are wearing a cross around your neck or a rainbow pin on your shirt. I feel the only people who would want to disturb the peace by thinking they are above the law "rule 50" should be punished, if for no other reason than they knew better. IDGAF if you are gay. I do care if you a whiny little bitch that just wants attention. This is the Olympics you need to be recognized for your athletic expertise, and nothing else.
The part where the argument kind of falls short is the fact that we straights don't get the shit kick out of us for being straight. If we did I'm sure we'd find a logo or something to display our solidarity for each other.
You don't like people expressing their opinion, go to Saudi Arabia. I mean, if you want to keep spewing your bigotry by all means go for it, but don't expect to have many friends left unless they are all hateful and stupid like you.
Is it "perfectly alright" for letting everyone around you know that you are straight? Yes? Then you're a hypocrite -- and why should anyone follow your hypocritical anti-gay double standard?
I think the point he was getting at was that straight people don't walk around exclaiming their "straightness" so why should gay and lesbians?
Note: I'm not for OR against homosexuals, let them live however they like it doesn't effect me so don't go calling me bigoted.
In some countries holding hands would be considered flaunting your sexuality. Every time I see heterosexual people walking down the street holding hands I am reminded that if I did that with my partner I might very well get spat at, beaten up, or at the very least there would be the odd "faggot" exchange. So I don't do it, but if I did I would not be flaunting my sexuality any more than you would be.
If you lived in a world where holding your partner's hand could get you a beating in the street you might show a little more support and solidarity for those whose situation is far worse than yours ever could be.
Straight people walk around proclaiming they are straight every day of their lives. Did you hold hands with your girlfriend in school? Or kiss your wife's cheek in public? Or open a joint bank account? Or go to a dinner party as a couple? Just because you don't give it a second thought doesn't mean you are not broadcasting it loud and clear every second of your life.
Well actually I don't consider your examples "proclaiming" at all whether doing it in a gay or straight relationship.
FTR, I don't agree at all with what is going on in Russia or the IOC stance on it.
All I was doing was clarifying what I thought the above poster was actually getting at.
They should "exclaim" their homosexuality to demonstrate that a significant proportion of the population (sports stars) are homosexual. They deserve equal rights, and until they have them, they need to be vocal. The squeaky wheel gets the oil.
andrey you are a biggot, fuck you
The IOC has been hypocritical for decades. Every time they play a gold medalist's national anthem, they are being political. When they kicked out the Taiwanese athletes from the Montreal Olympics in 1976 because Communist China didn't like it, they were being political. When they kicked John Carlos and Tommy Smith out of the Olympic Village in Mexico City and sent them home after their "Black Power" protest in 1968, they were being political. When they allowed Hitler to use the Olympics as a display of Nazi fascism in Berlin in 1936, they were being political. When they stripped Native American Jim Thorpe of all his gold medals because he made a few bucks playing baseball, they were being political.
Is wearing a rainbow pin really going to highlight the big issue here? Shouldn't Blake Skjellerup boycott the olyimpics altogether wouldn't that send out a much more powerful message. Infact all the athletes who are opposed to persecution should boycott by taking part they are complicite in this regime and its propaganda - same goes for anyone who supports the games by watching them.
Our whole country and the other countries who oppose state-sanctioned persecution of people over who they choose to date/marry/love should boycott these olympics. Tough crap if it hurts US-Russia relations. Why would we want to maintain good relations with a country that jails people for who they love -- and for what music they play? Don't we have any principles left in America -- that aren't about denying things to other people, that is?
Punish?! How? Will the athletes be given 50 lashes or tarred and feathered? This is a backwards step in time. In 1996 when the Olympics were held in Atlanta, the IOC gave the Greenville-Spartanburg, S.C. area and Cobb county, Ga. the smack down for their anti-gay BS and rerouted the torch around the areas compltely It's 2013.This is unacceptable.This double standard is being applied now because the IOC is caving in to ignorant Russian homophobia. Any LGBT athletes competing in this should make their plans clandestinely and reveal them only at the last moment, while we, as a united front, should make our voices at home loud enough to be heard 'round the globe. It boggles the mind that a country which was once so deeply entrenched in socialism would have any issue whatsoever with sexual orientation...but then under their twisted interpretation of it during the Soviet era the LGBT community faced even harsher treatment. Take a lesson from history: Tommy Smith and John Carlos. Any respect I had for how the IOC handled LGBT discrimination issues in 1996 has gone right out the window with this incident.
An entire class of people are being persecuted. They are first and foremost forbidden to express their sexuality at all, but they are subject to punishment, fine, imprisonment, being beaten and even murdered. It is time for the civilized parts of the world to stand up for the oppressed as they would hopefully if the people being persecuted were Jews or Blacks or any other persecuted group. We must not sit idly by and pretend the LGBT members in Russia are okay. They're not okay and we learned lessons from the horrors of the Holocaust and the horrors of our own mistreatment of African Americans. I say we either become loud spokespersons on behalf of the LGBT community in Russia or we protest the Olympics altogether and stay out of there. And to those few people who have spoken with such hatred and violence toward LGBT people, we know from near-death experiences that you, yes you will face the reality of your hatred and your violence and you will experience the full depth of your own hatred onto yourself. Karma is real and God is real and whatsoever a man sows, so shall he reap. If he sows love, then he shall reap love, but if he sows hatred, then he shall reap hatred.
So reactive demonstration IS NOT covered.
I am going to do a grass roots boycott. I will boycott the coverage, but I will also not buy / have anything to do with any product/organisation associated with the games for 12 months.
Sherbert McNuggets, I don't think you realize but white males in the States are very fortunate and very privileged, what you're missing out on is a lack of education or willingness to compete. If you don't want to lose your job or the opportunity then step up to the plate and stop making excuses. You will only find success after you admit your own faults and actually correct them. You sound like a lazy ass, which I'm not sure if you are, but you just sound so ridiculous that as a reader I can't help but paint this picture of some pimple-faced snotty teen trolling gay forums. In some cases, you may be right, you may have lost your job to affirmative action but at the same time no one will ever turn you down because you're a man and not a woman or a minority - they will have done it because you either suck at your job or you were the worst of the bunch. They will never fire you if you are productive and efficient (unless your personality is shit.)
Your arguments come across as attention-seeking and inflammatory for no other reason. I don't mean to devalue your personality but your rhetoric just seems petulant and no one here cares for it.
To respond to your comments is to perpetuate your behaviour but I feel like what you are saying carries a resentment that no one has addressed: you say you have friends that are gay but I don't fully believe that. I think that if you had gay friends (not just gay people you know) you would respect them enough to understand more about the culture and themselves. I think your curiosity about the issue is stifled by your 'I'm not a pussy' mentality. I don't mean to psychoanalyze your comments too deeply but I don't think everyone quite understands why you would post something so uneducated and belligerent on here. I can call you stupid and a bigot and whatnot but I won't because I know that these are your belief and I can't mock you for your beliefs - or lack thereof - I can only make observations. You sound like a rebellious, angsty teen and use 'fuck' a lot so it shows what kind of person you are. If you're mad at the fact that a gay or a Mexican or a woman can get a job or is treated with 'special treatment' that's because you can probably never blame yourself.
You say that you hate how gays are all loud and proud about being gay and you have to hear about it, well I'm sure that as a gnostic atheist you are just as vocal. Did you feel that mentioning you were a gnostic atheist would have changed any of this conversation? As if that defined your opinions and why you were dating these things. I was raised Catholic and although I do not practice religion I do respect a person's faith. Faith is fascinating and to have faith, in whatever it is, is inspiring. I respect religion but I don't agree with it at times, to shut your mind like being an atheist is to in fact become religious in your anti-religious thought: you evangelize the fact you don't believe as if to convince yourself and is a disrespect to others. I don't think it makes someone any weaker or stupider if they have something to believe in. Your beliefs become your faith whether you are a gnostic atheist or not.
I do agree to some extent that gay parades may go a bit too far but what you need to understand is that it isn't just a Gay Parade, in fact, it is a Pride Parade: pride in self-expression and sexuality. It is a celebration of being free and it took me a while to understand but it is a demonstration, although admittedly debauched, of sexual freedom.
I think extremist views on either side, gay or straight, are bigoted and you should always approach someone else's opinion with understanding of why the other thinks that way. It is that exact empathy that will lead to progress and understanding. I do agree that the in-yo-face approach is almost off putting because it crosses people's boundaries of comfort. I think the gay culture had become too much of a shock culture and that will never lead to understanding. Just like Sherbert McNuggets statements, they shocked but no one ever asked substantially on why he thinks that way because we have already made our conclusions - just like with a Pride Parade, no one is looking for answers if the graphics are so visual.
All in all to say, everyone stop being so whiney and get the fuck to bed. There are worse things happening to better people in the world.
I think it would be amusing if several countries decided to make their Olympic uniforms in rainbow colours.
If they think Blake Skjellerup's rainbow pin is political advocacy, then, to be really consistent, any athlete who thanks Jesus for his or her success or makes the sign of the cross should be fined for religious advocacy.
Of course the IOC is talking out of its ass. Rule 50, if enforced at all, will be enforced selectively, specifically for gays.

Office of the Provost
Maintaining and enhancing the university's excellence in teaching, research, scholarship and outreach.
Student Highlights: Miatta Lebile
Major: Music
College: Arts and Sciences
Hometown: Houston
Why did you choose Cornell?
I came to Cornell one summer to take a class and completely fell in love with the beauty here.
Main Cornell extracurricular activity – why is this important to you?
Singing, singing, singing. Freshman year, the day after I moved in, I auditioned for the Cornell Chorus, and Professor Scott Tucker (the chorus conductor) exclaimed, "You sound like you are 24!" I instantly loved him and fell in love with the chorus soon after. At Cornell, I have also had the opportunity to sing with the Chamber Singers, the Cornell Chordials, in recitals and, this semester, in an opera. It is what I do, what I breathe, what I love. Music is what gets me going, and I don't know what I would do without it.
Your most profound turning point while at Cornell?
Attending Mannes College [a division of The New School], a small but amazing conservatory in New York City, last semester [where Lebile was Cornell's first student in an exchange program with Mannes]. I used to have my life all figured out ... all that changed. At Mannes, I learned the amount of time that I really need to be spending in the practice rooms and learning the texts of songs well.
Who or what influenced your Cornell education the most?
My voice teacher, Professor Judith Kellock. I have never met anyone who pushed me harder. So many times she would suggest something that I did not want to do or had not even thought of; somehow she would convince me, and I was always thankful in the end. It was her idea to go to Mannes, which changed my life; her idea to go to SongFest (a summer program in Malibu, Calif.) and not give up because of its cost. I honestly do not know what kind of singer I would be right now if not for her constantly believing in me.
What Cornell-related scholarships did you receive? Were any of these critical to your ability to come to Cornell?
The Pauline and Irving Tanner's Dean Scholarship, which paid for my travel and room fees for SongFest. If not for the grant, I would not have been able to attend the program.
What Cornell memory do you treasure the most?
The time with the Chordials, [where] I have always felt like I was part of a family. I loved performing with them, having the annual soul food dinners and watching horrible movies with them. And ... the bowling club, which rocked my socks off. I loved it!
What are your plans for next year and beyond?
Take a two- to three-year break from school to work and take voice lessons in New York, then go to graduate school for vocal performance. I want to be either an opera singer or sing on Broadway. It is going to be tough, but I think it's worth it.

PlayStation 3 40GB Freezing?
It can play DVDs and even Blu-ray discs but as soon as I play a game it freezes, and sometimes it shuts itself down and the red light blinks. I've tried every option in safe mode and none worked. I've also tried completely re-formating the HDD (which took 3 hours) and that didn't work either. Anybody know what to do? Please don't say "send it to Sony" because I don't have $ 156 right now.
Your bluray laser is about to go out. It will eventually only play dvds. I'm not sure where you store it, but you may be able to extend its life a little longer if you keep it in a more open area
Well, its posible broken dvd rom, or try tu ubdate firmware. May ur dvds are crached, try get ur frnd exelent conditions dvd. Do u try to wach movies? Oh and allso u can do jaylbrake; sometimes its can hellp acording isue. Jaylbrake is way to play not original games downloaded and writted in dvd from local shop

Department of Psychology
We welcome your interest in the Department of Psychology at Southern Oregon University. Please explore our website and learn about our faculty and undergraduate and graduate programs.
More than 475 undergraduates have declared Psychology as their major.
Our faculty and staff in the Department of Psychology are here to help you learn and to help you pursue the study of psychology as you approach your personal and career goals. Our full-time faculty all hold doctoral degrees from major U.S. universities, and they represent a broad range of specializations. Among the major interest areas represented in the department are: Clinical and counseling psychology, group and individual behavior therapies, learning, social psychology, physiological psychology, and applied psychology.
Do a field practicum with Jackson County Mental Health or the Oregon State Police. Create an internship in a private residential treatment facility. Participate in graduate-level research with faculty. Present at local, regional, and national conferences.
These are among the many opportunities available to undergraduates in the Department of Psychology at SOU. As a psychology major, you can explore your area of interest while learning core scientific and theoretical principles of psychology.
Enjoy SOU's small class sizes and take advantage of the research and scholarship opportunities offered by SOU's many partnerships with local agencies and organizations. The Department of Psychology offers several program emphases for psychology majors, depending on particular career plans (e.g., paraprofessional programs and pregraduate school programs, including experimental, clinical or counseling, child psychology, and organizational psychology).
The Psychology Department is housed in the Education-Psychology Building which includes state-of-the-art equipment for classroom instruction, research, the students' study of learning, biofeedback, and other subspecialty areas. For our Masters students, facilities also include a computerized lab, videotape equipment, and observation rooms.
The goal and mission of the psychology department is to prepare students to enter a changing and demanding job market and to facilitate and encourage a lifetime of learning. More than at any other time in history we are faced with global changes that require us to assist students in gaining the information, technology, and new ways of thinking and viewing the world to achieve personal and professional success.
The psychology department believes that the best way to facilitate student growth and learning is to provide a solid scientific and theoretical base while teaching students to think critically, challenge accepted beliefs, and develop skills for their future. We believe it is our responsibility to provide the opportunities and tools necessary to integrate this knowledge and abilities into the students' personal and professional identity, and to provide the student with a greater understanding of the diversity, interdependence, and interrelatedness of the world.

While the Olympic games and Michael Phelps' spectacular array of medals distracted us for a few weeks, the political season is now back upon us in full force. John McCain and Barack Obama are sparring on a number of topics, but remarkably there is one issue on which they agree: "taking on" Big Pharma.
However, it is their support, not attacks, that the industry really needs. Drug companies today are in their most precarious positions ever; budgets are being cut and employees are being let go in record numbers. Investors, realizing this, have taken the market caps of nearly all the major U.S. drug companies down dramatically — Merck and Pfizer, the traditional industry leaders, have each lost about half their value since the beginning of this decade.
We can no longer assume that this industry will continue to pursue the business model that created many of today's medical miracles and enabled many others. Anyone reading this might already be familiar with the numbing economics of the drug business today. It takes an average of one to two billion dollars to bring a new drug to market and a decade or more to develop it. On top of this, nearly every project that begins in the laboratory ends in disappointment. This, more than any other reason, is why nearly every new therapy is invented and developed in the private sector. Governments and academia lack the stamina to sustain repeated and expensive failures.
Politicians who really care about our future, our health and our happiness should today be worried that the drug industry won't be able to fulfill its mission, that it won't keep supplying us with the new drugs and vaccines that we need to keep our healthcare system functioning and solvent in the face of the massive influx of the aging Baby Boomers.
The Baby Boomers are coming, and they are bringing with them chronic conditions as they age in numbers we've never seen before. Take Alzheimer's disease for example. More than one in 10 people who live past age 60 will become a victim of the disease, and for those who live past 80, the figure approaches half. The Alzheimer's Association projects that treatment costs for Medicaid alone will increase by $100 billion per year from 2005 to 2015.
The Boomers also bring something new to healthcare: an absolute belief that they are entitled to the best care available. This sense of entitlement and their willingness to use their political and legal power to get it means that demand for sophisticated healthcare will skyrocket in the years ahead.
The only realistic way we can satisfy the needs and expectations for healthcare over the next three decades is with new technology, new drugs, new biologicals and new vaccines. We need meaningful treatments for Alzheimer's, congestive heart failure, cancer and all the other conditions for which current treatments are still vastly inadequate. It is in the laboratories of the drug companies who are today investing over $40 billion each year on R&D where these advances will happen. These companies — who are putting billions on the line into high-risk projects to improve public health — need a government that understands that they deserve to make a good economic return when they are successful.
But there is little hope that you'll hear any of this from either campaign this fall; the "get tough" rhetoric polls too well. Maybe when the campaign is over, our new president will realize that we need to nurture pharmaceutical innovation, not attack it.
