In case you don't watch enough TV, Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) is pushing Abilify as an add-on for your antidepressant (AD). Depression is a far more socially acceptable form of brain cooties than bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, so it's no surprise that you'll see way more ads about ADs than mood stabilizers. And recent approvals are always heavily advertized. In any event, there's way more money in depression than there is in bipolar and schizophrenia combined, so expect Abilify to be marketed as a med that fills a common niche - as an add-on to ADs that are pretty close to working - and is a part of a proven strategy - combining an AAP with an AD. Abilify's big advantage is being the only AAP currently approved by the FDA for that application. Not counting Zyprexa, which only has the approval when mixed with Prozac in prepackaged form under the name Symbyax.
As with most APs, I liked Abilify. It really helped me with the stupids, giving me more clarity of thought than Zyprexa. And, like most APs, Abilify didn't like me. After a week on a dosage of 2mg every other day I was waking up with a seizure hangover every morning. After ten days I was waking up with a seizure hangover and then having an aura. The occasional nocturnal seizure I could live with; two seizures a day, every day, was beyond unacceptable.

If you have any questions not answered here, please see the Crazymeds Abilify discussion board. We welcome criticisms of the articles, notifications of bad links, site problems, consumer experiences with medications, etc. I'm not always able to write back. Hence I never answer questions about meds via e-mail that are answered by this or other articles. Especially if they have been repeatedly asked on the forum. That's why we write these damn things. Questions about which meds are best for your condition should also be asked on the forum; because this is a free site, so the price of admission is making things easier for somebody else searching for the same answer. We don't deal with children on the forum or in private because after doing this for ten years I don't have the emotional stamina to deal with kids who have brain cooties.

The way pharmaceutical companies buy each other and swap products like Monopoly™ real estate, the ownership of the trademark may have changed without my noticing.

The information on Crazymeds pertains to and is intended for adults. While some information about children and adolescents is occasionally presented (e.g. US FDA approvals), pediatric-specific data such as dosages, side effects, off-label applications, etc. are rarely included in the articles on drugs or discussed on the forum. If you are looking for information regarding meds for children you'll have to go somewhere else. Plus we are big pottymouths and talk about S-E-X a lot.
Know your sources!
Nobody on this site is a doctor, a therapist, or a pharmacist. We don't portray them either here or on TV. Only doctors can diagnose and treat an illness. While it's not as bad as it used to be, some doctors still get pissed off by patients who know too much about medications, so tread lightly when and where appropriate. Diagnosing yourself from a website is like defending yourself in court, you suddenly have a fool for a doctor. Don't be a cyberchondriac, thinking you have every disease you see a website about, or that you'll get every side effect from every medication1. Self-prescribing is as dangerous as buying meds from fraudulent online pharmacies that promise you medications without prescriptions.
All information on this site has been obtained from the medications' product information / summary of product characteristic (PI/SPC) sheets and/or medication guides - which is all you get from sites like WebMD, RxList,
NAMBLA NAMI, etc., the sources that are referenced throughout the site, our personal experience and the experiences family, friends, and what people have reported on various reputable sites all over teh intergoogles. As such the information presented here is not intended as a substitute for real medical advice from your real doctor, just a compliment to it. You should never, ever, replace what a real doctor tells you with something from a website on the Internet. The farthest you should ever take it is getting a second opinion from another real doctor. Educate yourself - always read the PI/SPC sheet or medication guide/patient information leaflet (PIL) that comes with your medications and never ever throw them away. OK, you can throw away duplicate copies, but keep at least one, as that's your proof of purchase of having taken a med in case a doctor doubts your medical history. Plus they take up less space than a bottle, although keeping one inside of a pill bottle is even better.
Crazymeds is not responsible for the content of sites we provide links to. We like them, or they're paid advertisements, or they're something else we think you should read to help you make an informed decision about a particular med. Sometimes they're more than one of those things. But what's on those sites is their business, not ours.
Very little information about visitors to this site is collected or saved. From time to time I look at search terms used and which pages they bring up in an effort to make the information I present more relevant. And the country of origin, just because I'm geeky like that. That's about it. Depending on how you feel about Schrodinger, our privacy policy should either assuage or exacerbate your paranoia.

1 While there are plenty of books to help you with hypochondria, for some reason there's not much in the way of websites. Then again, staying off of the Internet is a large part of curing/managing the disorder.
2 Remember kids, Microsloth operating systems are like TOS Star Trek movies with in that every other one sucks way, way more. With TOS Star Trek movies you don't want to bother watching the odd-numbered ones. With Microsloth OS you don't want to buy and install the even-numbered ones. Anyone who remembers ME and Vista knows what I mean.
3 Have I mentioned how open source operating systems for commercial applications is one of the dumbest ideas in the history of dumb ideas?* I don't even need my big-ass rant any more. Heartbleed has made my case for me. And that's just the one that got all the media attention. The very nature of an open source operating system makes security as much of an illusion as anonymity on teh Intergoogles. Before you flip out too much: the domain Crazymeds is hosted on uses a version of SSL that is not affected by the Heartbleed bug. That's one of the many reasons why I pay a lot of money and keep this site on Lunarpages.
* Yes, I know I'm using open source browsers. I also test the site using the now-defunct IE and Safari browsers. Their popularity - and superiority - killed IE and Safari, so that's why I rely on the open source browsers. It's like brand vs. generic meds. Sometimes the generic is better than the brand.

View processing is not optimized:
It is not possible to create an index on a view.
Indexes can be used for views processed using the merge algorithm. However, a view that is processed with the temptable algorithm is unable to take advantage of indexes on its underlying tables (although indexes can be used during generation of the temporary tables).
Subqueries cannot be used in the
FROM clause of
a view.
There is a general principle that you cannot modify a table and select from the same table in a subquery. See Section C.3, "Restrictions on Subqueries".
The same principle also applies if you select from a view that selects from the table, if the view selects from the table in a subquery and the view is evaluated using the merge algorithm. Example:
CREATE VIEW v1 AS SELECT * FROM t2 WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM t1 WHERE t1.a = t2.a); UPDATE t1, v2 SET t1.a = 1 WHERE t1.b = v2.b;
If the view is evaluated using a temporary table, you
can select from the table in the view
subquery and still modify that table in the outer query. In this
case the view will be stored in a temporary table and thus you are
not really selecting from the table in a subquery and modifying it
"at the same time." (This is another reason you might
wish to force MySQL to use the temptable algorithm by specifying
ALGORITHM = TEMPTABLE in the view definition.)
You can use
DROP TABLE or
ALTER TABLE to drop or alter a
table that is used in a view definition. No warning results from
DROP or
ALTER operation,
even though this invalidates the view. Instead, an error occurs
later, when the view is used.
TABLE can be used to check for views that have been
invalidated by
DROP or
A view definition is "frozen" by certain statements:
If a statement prepared by
PREPARE refers to a view, the
view definition seen each time the statement is executed later
will be the definition of the view at the time it was
prepared. This is true even if the view definition is changed
after the statement is prepared and before it is executed.
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT RAND(); PREPARE s FROM 'SELECT * FROM v'; ALTER VIEW v AS SELECT NOW(); EXECUTE s;
The result returned by the
EXECUTE statement is a random
number, not the current date and time.
If a statement in a stored routine refers to a view, the view definition seen by the statement are its definition the first time that statement is executed. For example, this means that if the statement is executed in a loop, further iterations of the statement see the same view definition, even if the definition is changed later in the loop. Example:
CREATE VIEW v AS SELECT 1; delimiter // CREATE PROCEDURE p () BEGIN DECLARE i INT DEFAULT 0; WHILE i < 5 DO SELECT * FROM v; SET i = i + 1; ALTER VIEW v AS SELECT 2; END WHILE; END; // delimiter ; CALL p();
When the procedure
p() is called, the
SELECT returns 1 each time
through the loop, even though the view definition is changed
within the loop.
As of MySQL 5.1.21,
is prohibited within stored routines, so this restriction does
not apply.
With regard to view updatability, the overall goal for views is
that if any view is theoretically updatable, it should be
updatable in practice. This includes views that have
UNION in their definition. Not all
views that are theoretically updatable can be updated. The initial
view implementation was deliberately written this way to get
usable, updatable views into MySQL as quickly as possible. Many
theoretically updatable views can be updated now, but limitations
still exist:
Updatable views with subqueries anywhere other than in the
WHERE clause. Some views that have
subqueries in the
SELECT list
may be updatable.
You cannot use
UPDATE to update
more than one underlying table of a view that is defined as a
You cannot use
DELETE to update
a view that is defined as a join.
There exists a shortcoming with the current implementation of
views. If a user is granted the basic privileges necessary to
create a view (the
CREATE VIEW and
SELECT privileges), that user will
be unable to call
on that object unless the user is also granted the
SHOW VIEW privilege.
That shortcoming can lead to problems backing up a database with mysqldump, which may fail due to insufficient privileges. This problem is described in Bug #22062.
The workaround to the problem is for the administrator to manually
grant the
SHOW VIEW privilege to
users who are granted
since MySQL doesn't grant it implicitly when views are created.
Views do not have indexes, so index hints do not apply. Use of index hints when selecting from a view is not permitted.
SHOW CREATE VIEW displays view
definitions using an
clause for each
column. If a column is created from an expression, the default
alias is the expression text, which can be quite long. As of MySQL
5.1.23, aliases for column names in
VIEW statements are checked against the maximum column
length of 64 characters (not the maximum alias length of 256
characters). As a result, views created from the output of
SHOW CREATE VIEW fail if any column
alias exceeds 64 characters. This can cause problems in the
following circumstances for views with too-long aliases:
View definitions fail to replicate to newer slaves that enforce the column-length restriction.
Dump files created with mysqldump cannot be loaded into servers that enforce the column-length restriction.
A workaround for either problem is to modify each problematic view
definition to use aliases that provide shorter column names. Then
the view will replicate properly, and can be dumped and reloaded
without causing an error. To modify the definition, drop and
create the view again with
VIEW and
CREATE VIEW, or
replace the definition with
For problems that occur when reloading view definitions in dump
files, another workaround is to edit the dump file to modify its
CREATE VIEW statements. However,
this does not change the original view definitions, which may
cause problems for subsequent dump operations.

Justin Bieber Posts Shirtless Workout Photosby Thomas Chau | PopCrush
Justin Bieber is hitting the gym again, and he's not shy about it.
Late Thursday night, Bieber posted on his Instagram account a collage of photos of him working out without his shirt on. In one photo, we see him curling a 40 lb. weight and in others, we see him doing various other exercises, presumably pull-ups and crunches.
"Back in the gym #dontbescared #orangegymrats," he writes in the caption.
Given the kind of week Bieber has had, it's no surprise that he's burning off stress at the gym. The 20-year-old was recently reunited with on-again, off-again girlfriend Selena Gomez. Earlier this week, Bieber was involved in a car accident when his Cadillac Escalade collided with a BMW. He was also named in a lawsuit when he struck a pedestrian in June 2013 while trying to escape paparazzi with his Ferrari.

Chevy Silverado Cold Air Intakes, Performance Air Intake System
Chevy Silverado Cold Air Intake and can be a great way to get a quick and easy boost in power for your Silverado. Cold Air Intake systems work in the same way: rerouting the stock air intake delivery system for the best performance out of your Chevy Silverado. Normally, the air filter in your Silverado is located in the engine bay where it can be easily accessed and replaced. The problem with this is, the heat of the engine bay has adverse effects on your engine's performance.
The Silverado Cold Air Intake systems we offer extend the air intake tube to a lower position in your vehicle to collect denser (colder) air away from the hot engine bay. Also, the air filter is moved into a frontward position allowing for the cool air to be "rammed" into your engine, hence the term ram air intake or air induction intake that is used sometimes to refer to Silverado intake Pipes. This combination of cold and dense air being shot into your Chevy Silverado's engine results in immediate and noticeable performance gains.
Our line of Chevy Silverado Cold Air Intake carry thru 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 or 96, 97, 98, 99, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, 12, 13 models.
96-13 Silverado Cold Air Intake
Chevy Silverado Cold Air Intake System Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install my new Cold Air Intake myself?If you have a decent amount of technical knowledge and can follow instructions, you should be able to follow the instructions and install a cold air intake onto your Chevy Silverado yourself. K&N FIPK intakes by far offer the best instructions with multiple pictures, though AEM is close behind.
What kind of power can I expect to get on my Chevy Silverado from an AEM, Spyder, or K&N FIPK Cold Air Intake?Power increases vary by application, but you could expect anywhere from a 3-15hp increase under optimal conditions. The Silverado K&N FIPK intakes we offer list the horsepower gain as dyno tested by K&N.
Are Cold Air Intakes safe in the rain?NO CAR should ever be operated during flooding. Unlike short ram intakes, cold air intakes draw air from a relatively low position. Your vehicle can technically ingest water from rain puddles, streams, floods, etc if your car is lowered or the water is deep enough, and damage your engine. To prevent this, you could install the appropriate sized AEM Bypass valve onto your Chevy Silverado's AEM or Spyder Cold Air Intake, however, we instead recommend switching to your vehicles stock intake system if you anticipate driving through flood conditions. K&N FIPK Intakes do not require bypass valves since their design is higher than AEM and Spyder, and are relatively safe from water ingestion.
What is the K&N Million Mile Warranty and does it apply to my Silverado intake?Chevy Silverado K&N FIPK, Aircharger, and Typhoon Intake systems, K&N offers an industry leading Million Mile Limited warranty against defects on intake systems properly installed on the vehicles from which they are designed, for one year from date of purchase (basically, no mile restrictions). Additionally, the vehicle must be used on paved roads only (no off road use whatsoever), not be used for any race or competition, not used for marine or industrial applications, and the filter must be properly cleaned using only K&N cleaner and air filter oil. Please see the K&N website for full details.

Tokyo is full of cafes catering to a wide assortment of tastes, but in recent years a new breed of coffee house has emerged for people who love to hang out with rabbits.
Ra.a.g.f, pronounced "raf," opened last fall in the fashionable Jiyugaoka area in Meguro Ward, and is usually packed at weekends with customers reveling in the company of the cafe's 20 to 30 rabbits.
"I came here during my break to relax," said a smiling woman in her late 20s as she fed fresh vegetables to some of the rabbits.
Customers who want to buy rabbits can purchase the animals from the cafe's breeding center — but the cafe's rabbit "staff" are not for sale.
Cafe manager Maria Fuwa cautioned that customers have to be able to provide suitable accommodations for the rabbits and also must promise never to abandon them.
In Fuwa's view, a rabbit is for life.
Another rabbit cafe, Usagi Cafe Ohisama (Rabbit Sun Cafe), was launched last year by a pet shop operator in the Shimokitazawa area in Setagaya Ward.
This coffee shop is also buzzing on weekends and most of the customers are women, said cafe manager Asami Yoshimura
The cafe has about 30 of the animals, but the big rabbit on campus is Naito-kun — who lives with Yoshimura.
Yet another rabbit cafe operating in the same area is Usagi no Ehon (Rabbit Picture Books).
Given the many live music houses and small theaters nearby, it has turned into a gathering spot for musicians and actors.
"I want our cafe to be a healing space for stressed-out people," said Etsuko Kawasaki, who has been running the cafe with her family for the past two years.
The cafe's seven rabbits may not be a match for the hordes cavorting in its two rival establishments — but it does display picture books and sell rabbit-themed merchandise.

great animation but...
Was that Mastermind?? :)
Great stuff! BUT...
Your usage needs tweaking... there are certain parts that will horrify the grammar nazis.
The Path of his Father...
It would have been better had you had the man commissioning Collin say,
... if he follows the same path AS his father, or if he continues down the same path as his father, or if he takes the same path as his father... do you understand?
Do This Mission... in that particular conversation, an operative in control of another operative might be far more likely to use better English and say this:
Connor will carry out this mission, Collin is to carry out this mission... etc.
I would be happy to um, what is the word? -Beta- your next script, if you like...
Never done a script before! Might be fun! I write too much Doctor Who fanfiction anyway... WELL there can never be too much of THAT, but still...
Other than those types of things, this was great! Nothing else wrong with it that I could see. I don't do Flash, yet, but hey. This was great.
Yeah, I never really noticed that before, but the script/story wasn't written by me. I was just given some voices and the outline of what the storywriter wanted the scene to look/feel like.
Thanks though :)
Looks pretty sweet indeed
However, I too, had issues with the filters. High quality, standard size, it ran "meh" during the red scenes. I have a fairly nice CPU and gfx card running this thing, so I feel a lot of people are going to have much more serious issues. Might be something to consider.
If that is resolved, I would love to see more of this.
Hmm, that's quite unfortunate. Every machine I've tested this on has ran fine, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks :0
The animation is up on youtube, that version might be less lag intensive.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kT2cAy GgO_o
Bloody well done Marsume, you are getting so much better. I can not wait until you realease the actual video. Please, whatever you do just keep on creating episodes and go mad with your animation.
10/10 animation
10/10 sound
10/10 voice
10/10 music
10/10 theme
10/10 storyline
10/10 awesome
Yeah it is.

Mix remaining fennel seed and egg in large bowl. Let stand 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup of the parsley, onion, bread crumbs, preserved lemon and pepper; mix until well blended. Add lamb; mix gently. Shape into 6 patties
For the Romesco Sauce, place garlic in blender or small food processor; cover. Process until chopped. Add roasted red pepper, almonds, remaining 1/4 cup parsley, oil, peri-peri sauce and reserved crushed toasted fennel seed; cover. Process until smooth. Set aside
Grill burgers over medium heat to desired doneness. (For medium doneness, cook 4 to 5 minutes per side.) Serve in pita breads with baby spinach or other greens, and cucumber and tomato slices. Serve with Peri-Peri Romesco Sauce

The US Army's techno-revolution push is making some progress, according to reports. Small military hover-droids in Iraq will be increased by 60 per cent, and there are unspecified plans to integrate footsoldiers' wearable computers into the wider military net.
In you go, R2, we're right behind you
The Ares blog at Av Week reports that Army chiefs will send another 12 Honeywell Micro Air Vehicles to Iraq shortly, joining the 20 already there. Meanwhile, the rapidly-evolving "Land Warrior" wearable smartphone/computer kit, on its return to combat with the 5th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, will be hooked up to the nascent Future Combat Systems (FCS) net "to help the dismounted soldier be connected".
FCS is the US Army's futuristic vision for itself, in which soldiers, vehicles, weapons and robots are all tied together by a unified digital radio net. It includes a robot kill-chopper, the small hovering MAV, soldiers' personal comm/puter nodes and various other things including crafty new hybrid-engined vehicles. Originally there was something not at all unlike an unmanned robot tank, though this has now been cancelled.
The FCS programme has slowed down a lot, and some doubt whether it will ever truly come into being. Others have said that the networked droid legions would swiftly be subverted by hackers.
But meanwhile, the smaller and less difficult bits of FCS are being "spun out" as soon as they seem ready, and sent to war in Iraq or Afghanistan to see if they're any good. Examples include the MAV and Land Warrior, and there are plans to try out some FCS remote sensors next year.
Yes sir, the robots are all dead
For now though, hooking up the 5th Stryker Brigade's Land Warrior sets to the FCS net would seem a bit notional, as there isn't much stuff on that on that net yet. Except, perhaps, the small force of MAVs - said to be quite popular with US troops in theatre for such tasks as peering into windows or through doors, or examining possible roadside bombs.
This does seem to suggest that it will soon be possible to control or task the MAV hoverbots from one's Land Warrior, perhaps viewing the little droids' video on the monocle display for instance. This could offer a nifty way of detecting rooftop or street-corner ambushes, or of following fleeing enemies in tricky urban terrain.
Then, of course, once your robot ally has fingered the enemy around the corner you could take him out safely using your crafty airburst smartgun - also due in Iraq next year, according to reports. Or simply send in one of the latest, heavily armed ground robots.
Whether all this will genuinely help to stabilise Iraq is far from clear. But it certainly seems as though high technology and robotics are genuinely beginning to reach the battlefield. ®

Hey, it's YELLOW
By Diana on Sunday, June 30, 2019Purchased late June 2019. At the time I was driving a 2013 Soul and had taken it in for an oil change. Noticed the new Souls were available in solar yellow. The color of car I had been wanting for the past 30 years. Also the newer models had so much more bells and whistles that I have yet to figure out completely as there is no CD player and getting music to my sad phone is a bother. All in all I love the car. Seems bigger (though it's not) Has enough power to trust. Only drawback is that the AC doesn't seem as powerful as my last one. I'm only guessing that perhaps it's due to the vents for the rear passengers that are located under the seats. Don't often have rear passengers so I wish I could shut those vents and have more up where I need it. Oh, and you think you closed the doors but the dash says otherwise so you have to get out and re-close them.

I traded my 2015 Kia Sportage in for the Soul.
By Ro on Saturday, November 09, 2019My 2015 Kia was a great car, dependable and without need for repairs in 5+ years. My new Soul feels as big inside as the Sportage. It drives wonderful, gas mileage is even better. My handicapped Mom could not get in the higher seat of the Sportage. There's plenty room for her wheelchair too. I love the features, especially the back up camera.

Love it!!
By Don on Saturday, June 01, 2019Bought a Kia Soul April 1st. I didn't think I would like a Soul, thought it was too small. Was I wrong. It has more than enough room and the comfort level was very surprising. The more we drive the Soul, the more we like it. Excellent gas milleage, the styling is eye catching, and comfort level is great.

Paul Volcker at the Cooper Union
POSTED ON: March 26, 2012
On the evening of March 21, 2012, Paul Volcker spoke to a large audience at Cooper Union's Great Hall. Mr. Volcker, who is the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, focused his talk on calls for further reform of both the government and the financial system.
Mr. Volcker, an economist who is widely credited with ending widespread U.S. inflation in the 1970s and early 1980s, addressed current financial reforms developed in reaction to the U.S. recession. He described the reforms as "promising but definitely incomplete."
Specifically, Mr. Volcker spoke of the need to regulate money market mutual funds, what he described as a "new systemic risk." He also argued for the importance of building a private market for mortgages in order to replace the government subsidized entities that currently dominate that market. He acknowledged the progress has been made toward improving financial regulatory oversight, capital and liquidity standards and rules for derivatives.
Mr. Volcker, who has served as an economic adviser to President Obama, advocated what came to be known as the Volckerrule, limiting banks from making speculative bets with their own money. Some banks have criticized the regulation, saying that it could increase risks, while governments outside the U.S. have said it could curb their ability to raise money.
Mr. Volcker's took audience questions after his talk.
His talk was videotaped and is presented below in its entirety.

I have to write a java program for a class and I'm not sure about what to do for one of the methods. The program is for equations in the form ax + by = c. A, b, and c are the coefficients and constant. I have the rest of the program written but I don't understand this method: The verifySolution method verifies that the equality in the equation is correct with the provided x and y parameter values. It returns a value of true if the solution is correct and false otherwise. My code:
public boolean verifySolution (Equation e)
if ()
return true;
return false;
I'm not sure what to put in the if statement. Two of the other methods are solve for x and solve for y. I think those somehow come into the code. In the test case provide one of the tests is:
pubilc void testSolvingPairs()
try {
Equation uut1 = new Equation (1 , -1 , 4) ; Equation uut2 = new Equation (1 , -1 , 2) ; assertEquals(3.0 , uut1. solveForXWith(uut2) , Equation.THRESHHOLD);
assertEquals(1.0 , uut1. solveForXWith(uut2) , Equation.THRESHHOLD);
assertEquals(3.0 , uut2. solveForXWith(uut1) , Equation.THRESHHOLD);
assertEquals(1.0 , uut2. solveForXWith(uut1) , Equation.THRESHHOLD);
assertTrue(uut1. verifySolution(3.0 , 1 ,0)) ;
assertTrue(uut2. verifySolution(3.0 , 1 ,0)) ;

Gua Africa promotes education in Africa through academic sponsorships to refugees who have survived war and genocide, construction of classrooms and the provision of resources such as books, pencils and teacher's salaries that ensure schools remain open during times of emergency. We have projects in both Kenya and South Sudan. Since the outbreak of violence in December 2013 our work in South Sudan has changed. We have delayed our construction of classrooms as the instability has made that logistically impossible. Our work now focuses on short term emergency provision of resources which will see the existing schools remain open. This means sending books and pencils along with financial incentives for teachers who have not been paid since 2013.
You can show your support by becoming a sponsor to our refugees or donating either a one off or regular monthly donation to our work in South Sudan.

Recorded at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado on 5th June 1983, Live at Red Rocks was originally released on video in November 1983 and rereleased on DVD in September 2008.
The DVD includes 5 previously unreleased songs, a director's commentary, digitally re-graded pictures and a 5.1 mix.
The remastered live album Under a Blood Red Sky album was released at the same time and an LP version pressed on 180gm virgin vinyl .
'In the end, the rain actually helped us. It made it look really extraordinary.'
'It was a benchmark. We could now say, 'Right, we've got to a point where we're contenders. We're at the starting gate.'
'I think I completely lost myself at various points and became an utter madman. That US festival thing. I climbed to the very top of the stage, it was like hundreds of feet up, and walked across the top of it on the canvas, and the canvas ripped. God! I can't watch that! I don't know who that person is. I don't know who it is climbing up there. I'm afraid of heights anyway.'
Bono, January 1985

Jon Huntsman laid out his foreign policy vision with a speech in New Hampshire on Monday, further establishing himself as a skeptic of ambitious U.S. military commitments abroad. Huntsman has touched on these themes before: Scaling back the war in Afghanistan and turning it into a primarily counter-terrorism mission; containing the defense budget; relying more on "competitiveness and engagement" overseas; and generally taking " a more judicious approach toward foreign entanglements."
(One striking exception: Huntsman did say he would consider a pre-emptive strike on Iran's nuclear program. "I cannot live with a nuclear-armed Iran," Huntsman said.)
Huntsman's vision may have been familiar, but Monday's speech did serve as a useful contrast just a few days after Mitt Romney's own big foreign policy address in South Carolina on Friday. The speech made clear that Romney has thrown in his lot with his party's hawkish wing. In it, he called for reversing Obama's "massive defense cuts," rattling a saber at Iran by stationing aircraft carrier task forces nearer to its soil, and pledging to "secure our gains and complete our mission successfully" in Afghanistan.
Given Huntsman's feeble poll numbers, it's tempting to infer that Republicans just aren't too interested in rethinking their foreign policy stance. But the question isn't settled yet. Rick Perry has been a bit murky on his foreign policy thus far, and could look to snap up war-weary (or at least war-spending weary) conservative voters. Herman Cain barely talks about foreign policy–he's admitted that he has no plan for Afghanistan–and yet he's soaring in the polls, suggesting that the GOP's national security litmus tests are changing, or at least far less important than they have been in recent history.
To some degree, I think Republicans simply aren't thinking a lot about foreign policy. Obama has done a strong job of hunting terrorists and preventing attacks, and beyond his much maligned Israel policy, he's left Republicans without a lot to complain about. Coupled with the dismal state of the economy, foreign policy may be less important in this election than it has been in more than a decade.

The company also unveiled findings from the latest IBM Social Sentiment Index on traffic, which looked at public sentiment across India's largest cities -- Bangalore, New Delhi and Mumbai. Analysis of publically available social media showed that the worst congestion is primarily caused by accidents and bad weather (three out of four times) when looking at the three cities together. It also indicated some interesting variations between the cities analyzed. For example, social conversation in Mumbai about stress around traffic is about half as high as Bangalore and New Delhi; references to the impact of rush hour on congestion in New Delhi are between five and seven times more negative than in Bangalore and Mumbai.
With a wealth of online content and public commentary on social channels such as Twitter and Facebook, city officials need new ways to measure positive, neutral and negative opinions shared by citizens regarding important city issues. IBM's advanced analytics and natural language processing technologies used to analyze large volumes of public social media data in order to assess and understand citizen opinions are now available to city governments around the world via new capabilities delivered with the IBM Intelligent Operations Center (IOC) for Smarter Cities. The IOC – which combines IBM software and services to integrate city operations through a single dashboard view to help cities improve efficiency – is now augmented with social media analytics capabilities that will help city officials make more informed decisions by looking at unfiltered citizen attitudes and actions, distinguishing between sincerity and sarcasm and even predicting trends as they surface online.
Combining the knowledge that population will rapidly increase in Bangalore, New Delhi and Mumbai in the coming years, with sentiment on commuters' preferred mode of transportation, could help these cities more accurately plan for needed investments in transportation infrastructure and its potential impact. City officials could also gauge where public awareness campaigns need to be administered to shift commuters to different modes of transport in order to alleviate growing traffic congestion.
The IBM Social Sentiment Index on transportation in India's three largest cities surfaced several insights including:
· The top three factors impacting traffic congestion that citizens in each city talked about most online were diverse. Delhites chattered about public transportation, weather and the stress of commuting, while Bangaloreans show more concern for their overall driving experience, construction and parking issues, and Mumbaikars are talking about private transportation, accidents and pollution more often.
· Conversation in Bangalore around parking is viewed three times more negatively than in the other cities.
· Despite recent infrastructure improvements, less pollution and a solid public transit system, Delhites are experiencing a far higher amount of stress (50 percent) than those in Mumbai (29 percent) or Bangalore (34 percent). Most likely, this can be explained by an uptick in rallies and weather events this year, as well as the recent power outage.
· Surprisingly, sentiment on the topic of construction was relatively positive in Bangalore and New Delhi, and positive and negative sentiment on infrastructure in each was relatively even. Together, these may suggest that the transportation infrastructure improvements being made over the last two years in each city are beginning to positively impact citizens.
· Analysis shows that the relative negative sentiment for rush hour (35 percent) is one of the key drivers impacting traffic in New Delhi, which may explain why citizens talk about stress significantly more than commuters in Mumbai or Bangalore.
By applying analytics capabilities to the area of social media sentiment, organizations are able to better understand public opinions, and city officials can gain additional insights in order to draw logical conclusions about where they should focus their attentions and resources. For example:
· Take Bangalore, the technology hub of India. Understanding that most commuters prefer private transportation despite negative sentiment around parking and construction may indicate that city officials should consider if it makes sense to advocate for more commuters to use mass transit and invest in infrastructure that will keep up with demand as more companies locate there.
· Since Dehlite's indicate that public transportation is the preferred mode of transportation, city officials could use this insight to study which areas have high ridership and less road traffic and then implement similar actions in highly congested areas.
· In Mumbai, negative sentiment around traffic and weather at the peak of monsoon season (August) generated 5.5 times more chatter than in November. If the city could measure the fluctuation of public sentiment on these potential causes over time combined with specific weather data like rainfall or temperature, it might be able to better prepare to divert traffic during monsoon season or determine areas where a public safety campaign is needed.
"Like all rapidly growing cities across the world, there are infrastructure growing pains in many Indian cities," said Guru Banavar, vice president and chief technology officer, Smarter Cities, IBM. "However, when city officials can factor public sentiment – positive, negative or otherwise -- around city services like transportation, they can more quickly pinpoint and prioritize areas that are top of mind for their citizens. This could mean more targeted investment, improving a particular city service, more effective communication about a service that is offered, and even surfacing best practices and successful efforts that could be applied to other zones of a city."
Public social media content was analyzed by IBM Cognos Consumer Insights, which assessed 168,330 online discussions from September 2011 to September 2012 across social platforms including Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, Forums and News Sources and derived 54,234 High Value Snippets through a series of advanced filtration techniques for insight analysis. The IBM Social Sentiment Index helps companies tap into consumer desires and make more informed decisions by looking at unfiltered consumer attitudes and actions, distinguishing between sincerity and sarcasm, and even predicting trends.

Unit 26 Pysons Road Industrial Estate
United Kingdom
One summer 18 years ago, Stuart Atkinson and Kiel Shaw set off in their Fiat Punto on an adventure to France with two hundred pounds worth of Francs in their pockets. They spent the lot at their first street 'brocante' in Pas de Calais.
Since then, they have visited and bought from hundreds of different brocantes, antiques markets and auctions all over France, developing their knowledge of French decorative antiques. There are no bounds to the things they might buy, anything diverse and unique catches their eye, from naive 18th Century through to contemporary 20th Century.
Fontaine Decorative are opening a new and exciting space at Unit 26, Pysons Road Industrial Estate, Broadstairs, Kent in the Spring of 2015, having now closed their previous showrooms in Margate. Further details will be posted on their website and on the DC when available. In the meantime they are still open for business and items can be viewed by appointment.

In an editorial Sunday, we urged the Sarasota City Commission to settle a lawsuit -- which alleges that two commissioners violated the state Sunshine Law -- as quickly as possible in order to limit taxpayers' financial exposure.
In meetings today, the commissioners could have an opportunity to responsibly settle -- or, at least, lay the foundation for such a settlement.
The plaintiffs -- Citizens for Sunshine, a nonprofit group represented by a Sarasota law firm -- should give commissioners a chance to accept a reasonable settlement that protects the public's interests.
Among those interests are: avoiding expensive litigation that could have been prevented; promoting open government; protecting citizens' access to elected and appointed officials.
The case at hand
The lawsuit alleges that Commissioners Suzanne Atwell and Susan Chapman violated the Sunshine Law by attending, along with four high-ranking city officials, a private meeting with downtown merchants on the hot topic of homelessness in Sarasota.
The Sunshine Law requires that a "meeting" involving two or more elected officials from the same body be conducted openly and publicly.
The meeting with downtown business owners was not open to the public or publicized in advance.
Here is the Florida attorney general's long-standing interpretation of the law and what qualifies as a "meeting":
"The Sunshine Law applies to all discussions or deliberations as well as the formal action taken by a board or commission. The law, in essence, is applicable to any gathering, whether formal or casual, of two or more members of the same board or commission to discuss some matter on which foreseeable action will be taken by the public board or commission. ..."
The lawsuit contends that Atwell and Chapman spoke at the meeting about issues related to homelessness. Notes from the meeting refer to the topic in general and highlight "a major concern" -- the possibility that a consultant for the city and Sarasota County will recommend the creation of a new shelter in the municipality. That vital issue will certainly be considered, soon, by the City Commission.
Chapman disputes that a discussion covered by the law occurred. Her counsel and Atwell's lawyer both say the lawsuit overreaches.
In an email after the session with merchants, Chapman told a constituent "there was a meeting last Thursday with area merchants to discuss the issue." In another email, directed to the meeting organizer, Chapman wrote: "Let's have more of those meetings, so we can make sure we share information, strategies, and solutions."
What's more, City Manager Tom Barwin stated that the meeting provided an opportunity "to build a coalition to support our homelessness efforts."
Those statements would weaken the city's defense, if it chose to fight the lawsuit.
City Attorney Robert Fournier has publicly stated that he would defend the lawsuit or negotiate a settlement, depending on the City Commission's guidance.
A principled settlement is a better option.
The lawsuit and an early-settlement offer from the plaintiffs is unusual in that it names Atwell and Chapman individually as defendants and demands that they, rather than the city, pay legal fees. The initial offer also includes details about providing advance notice of meetings with two or more commissioners present.
The demands on Atwell and Chapman complicate resolution of the case, in part because they have a conflict of interest in the outcome. Plus, it's likely the city government would ultimately be responsible for paying the commissioners' legal fees.
A way out
A principled settlement would, we believe, drop Atwell and Chapman as individual plaintiffs. An agreement would not require the two commissioners, or the entire City Commission, to admit a violation of the law. But a deal should have the city pay the plaintiffs' fees to date and provide a framework for avoiding a repeat.
State law already requires that many types of official meetings be advertised in advance. However, the city could reasonably establish a system for providing notice about other meetings that could be covered by the Sunshine Law. Procedures for recording the sessions or taking minutes could be established as well.
There would be details to work out, but creating a relatively simple structure should be within the city's capacity.
It's important to recognize that attorney general opinions and court cases have stated that notices, record-keeping and the like are not required for social events, public forums and other events -- so long as the elected officials don't discuss public business.
Application of the Sunshine Law can sometimes be complicated. But, as we wrote previously, the best course for commissioners and staff can be summarized in three words: Follow the law.
And, if there is any doubt about the law, err on the side of openness.
We urge the plaintiffs and the city to reach a settlement that ensures citizen access to officials while respecting the law and erring on the side of openness.

Friends, representatives, Jimmy, lend me your ears.
By GLENN JONES
Friends, representatives, Jimmy, lend me your ears.
Can using Athenian logic and reason save Bay County heaps of money? Will expensive no-bid contracting and typically shabby commissioner strategy end in a predictable water-source tragedy?
Thumbing through the marble pages of my Greek dictionary I found the phrase �eminent domain.� Plato would describe �eminent domain� as a reasonable and logical sacrifice for society by a few. Gainer Springs, I would argue, should be included in our public Florida watershed, but instead is privately owned and managed for huge profits by the Patronis family.
Compensation for that property at fair-market value, with BP funds, would go a long way toward avoiding future hurricane disasters by providing a natural spring water source instead of paying contractors to drill holes into everything except common sense.
The Patronis family has performed amazing feats of property-purchase and tax-valuation acrobatics on its so-called agricultural exemption property. Check out the Bay County Property Appraiser�s website, fellow taxpayer. Your honor, parcels like 05000-000-000 will henceforth be referred to as goldimus cowamous.
This �green ways� fountain of money smells like conflict of interest, and means citizens of Bay County can buy their own water back from a top local Republican representative (and immediate family) while our leaking public utility is fraught with boil water notices. Dilapidated public infrastructure and cruddy pipes are rusting to a full stop. That must be great news for those in the plastic bottled water industry!
Gainer Springs is just north of Deer Point Lake on Econfina Creek and flows as clear as gin. Yet our public water supply is piped from the lake�s shallow, weedy southern end, thus requiring far more chlorine and treatment. After pesticides, fertilizer runoff and poor septic zoning, our water is further diminished by unrestricted motor boat use. Imagine a summer�s worth of gasoline spilled by kids filling Dad�s 2,000-horsepower Jet Ski or bass boat from shore. Sensible communities keep their water reservoirs limited to paddles or sails. In the Great Republican North Florida, our leadership is as sharp and focused as a dirty martini.
Deer Point Lake is just a couple miles downwind from our infamous incinerator, so never mind testing those particles of medical waste and plastic residue belching from smokestacks night and day. Unlike water purity, burning trash and (imported) medical waste is a 24-hour job.
Like a poorly staged Greek tragedy, things have just gotten worse. I attended one of our inconvenient (it�s still 10 a.m. Tuesdays, folks) county meetings years ago, and was told by Commissioner George Gainer, �We don�t have any problems with our drinking water or Deer Point Lake.� OK, thanks, problem solved (NOT). Concerned citizen may now go home and bang head on wall.
I find all this curious, George, because Deer Point Dam was built in 1961 and nearly caved into the Gulf after Hurricane Opal in 1995. Plenty of repairs were needed because that rickety dam thing holds back 5,000 acres of water and is extremely vulnerable to any direct hit by the next hurricane surge.
I now present a tweet version of a new-fashioned Greek tragedy: A hurricane wipes out the dam (not science fiction), entire county without water all summer (angst), has to buy drinking water from appointed leader (irony), political career in ruins (applause), BP oil money long gone (silence), county broke (crocodile tears), last pontoon plane sets sail from swamp-port for tax haven in Bahamas.
My tedious thesis is based on historical comparisons of events that took place in 407 B.C. following the Battle of Arginusae (yawn). The following year Athens waved the tattered flag of surrender. In other words, the whole dam empire collapsed from internal rot and greed.
No reason why that awful history should retweet itself here in Bay County, folks. If that 2321 dam road breaks, and our precious water drains to the sea, you can stop in Youngstown on your way north for a sip of cold well water.
Sharing is just a part of being a good neighbor, right? Ancient Greeks thirsted for justice so desperately they scribed that down as a list called Delphic Maxims. Maxims meant a square deal, not square tires.
Here in Florida country living, our blue �Plato� special includes air and water, no hidden charges, mister. Owning everyone else�s water supply would not be considered fair in any era.

Traveling with small kids in tow can be a challenge, at best. Here are a few tips for making the trip go more smoothly -- for everyone.
- Bring plenty of snacks. Dried fruit, tiny crackers, and other lunchbox munchies are perfect, but think about throwing some more substantial (but still portable) things into the bag as well: packets of instant oatmeal, beef jerky, and fruit-and-cereal bars are great choices, too.
- Help manage ear pain. Nurse (or give your baby a bottle) during takeoff and landing; it can help regular air pressure in the ears and minimize discomfort. If your child has been weaned or is too big for a bottle or a pacifier, consider EarPlanes air-pressure regulating ear plugs (you can find them for about $5 a pair at most major drugstores and online earplanes.com).
- Bring quiet toys. Any toy that can be reused -- draw-with-water toys like Aquadoodle, wipe-clean books -- is great for travel. Tuck a few new books or activity sets into the bag as well, to keep your kids interested (and quiet) for the long haul.
- Extra clothes are key. Keep a complete change of clothing for each child in your carry-on bag, and be sure to throw a T-shirt or two in there for you, too. Babies spit up, toddlers spill things, and older kids can get sick -- all over you.
- Bring your own earphones. No, noise-cancelling earphones don't magically make everything blissfully silent, but they do help your child hear the TV, music, or movie more easily (which means you don't have to crank the volume way up). Even airlines with in-flight entertainment are providing less equipment, though, and earphones from home are more likely to fit (and, therefore, stay on) your child.
- Make a quick-changing kit. Slip three diapers, a skinny pack of wipes, and a onesie or T-shirt into a plastic bag so you can grab it and go without having to take the entire diaper bag with you. Skip Hop offers a cool little clutch designed expressly for this purpose.
- Keep your carseat and stroller handy. You may want to use your carseat while you're on the plane; if you change your mind (or if there's no room), you can always check it at the gate. Take your stroller to the gate and check it right before you board; when you arrive, you'll be able to use your stroller to wheel your child to baggage claim.

We've been teasing (and teased by) the release details for Hearthstone Curse Of Naxxramas for months here on Geeky Antics and on HorsePLAY! LIVE. Even on Episode 31 (seen below), we talked Hearthstone and started to speculate around Blizzard's usual vague reports. Note the Hearthstone-themed overlay.. Yeah, we LOVE this game!
The wait is over guys – Curse Of Naxxramas releases TODAY!
Blizzard pulled another sneaky update here, just like they did with the Hearthstone iPad app release. Yesterday they tweeted that CoN would be released within a "few hours". That was roughly 13 hours ago as I bring this breaking news to you guys. There's no planned maintenance so I reckon this is a timed release we'll see around noon on the West coast and 3pm for EST (GMT-5).
If you want to know some of the things to expect, check out our last The GANG Minute (leaked Curse Of Naxxramas photos inclusive). You'll want to hoard around 2400-2800 gold if you want to avoid paying out of pocket or are just budget-minded (translation: cheap bastards like many of us). The first installment of the single-player Curse Of Naxxramas adventure will be free, Hearthstone fans – you still have time to raise gold!
On a similar note, there is still time to qualify for the first official Hearthstone World Championship. Hit Legendary and stay on the grind. Details on Curse Of Naxxramas and the Hearthstone World Championship can be found on the Battle.net game client front page/dashboard.
For my Twitch followers, I am taking this opportunity to catch up on my streaming. I've been super busy tending to my family and working on projects but now we HAVE to get together and talk Hearthstone. Tweet me @Yogizilla and we can set up Skype chats while we play some Curse Of Naxxramas. Expect tons of Hearthstone streaming and #TheDustOff action too!
