Loose Change claims:
4,516 put options are placed on American Airlines, almost 11 times its daily average.
And here's the debunking from Screw Loose Change:
4,516 put options are placed on American Airlines, almost 11 times its daily average.
And here's the debunking from Screw Loose Change:
American stock had been falling, and on Friday, Sept. 7 they announced a prediction of higher-than-expected losses for Q3 and Q4, on top of a Q2 loss. On Monday, investors made the safe bet that the stock would continue to fall.911myths.com has covered this issue in depth.
And from the 9/11 Commission Report, chapter 5, note 130:
And from the 9/11 Commission Report, chapter 5, note 130:
|Highly publicized allegations of insider trading in advance of 9/11 generally rest on reports of unusual pre-9/11 trading activity in companies whose stock plummeted after the attacks. Some unusual trading did in fact occur, but each such trade proved to have an innocuous explanation. For example, the volume of put options--investments that pay off only when a stock drops in price--surged in the parent companies of United Airlines on September 6 and American Airlines on September 10--highly suspicious trading on its face. Yet, further investigation has revealed that the trading had no connection with 9/11. A single U.S.-based institutional investor with no conceivable ties to al Qaeda purchased 95 percent of the UAL puts on September 6 as part of a trading strategy that also included buying 115,000 shares of American on September 10. Similarly, much of the seemingly suspicious trading in American on September 10 was traced to a specific U.S.-based options trading newsletter, faxed to its subscribers on Sunday, September 9, which recommended these trades. These examples typify the evidence examined by the investigation. The SEC and the FBI, aided by other agencies and the securities industry, devoted enormous resources to investigating this issue, including securing the cooperation of many foreign governments. These investigators have found that the apparently suspicious consistently proved innocuous. Joseph Cella interview (Sept. 16, 2003; May 7, 2004; May 10-11, 2004); FBI briefing (Aug. 15, 2003); SEC memo, Division of Enforcement to SEC Chair and Commissioners, "Pre-September 11, 2001 Trading Review," May 15, 2002; Ken Breen interview (Apr. 23, 2004); Ed G. interview (Feb. 3, 2004).
Let me get this right. "Yet, further investigation has revealed that the trading had no connection with 9/11."
Why? Because of "a single U.S.-based institutional investor with no conceivable ties to al Qaeda". That means the investigation is blocked because the trail doesn't lead to Al-qaida! What is that for an "investigation" when the result stands before the investigation even starts (petitio principii).
They're saying that a "single U.S.based investor... purchased 95 percent of the UAL puts".
When it's only one company, how could someone claim that this trading is referred to a general fall of airline-options and a general recommendation made by a trading newsletter? That 95% of the purchased put was done by one investor is prove that this options-trade wasn't result of general business. This investor had a very special interest in these put-options. Who was this single investor?
The bank which purchased 95% of the UAL-Put-options was Alex Brown Inc, headed until 1998 by "Buzzy" Krongard, who became executive director of the CIA in March 2001 (resigned December 2004).
Krongard was chairman of Alex Brown Inc, America's oldest investment banking firm. Alex Brown was acquired by Bankers Trust, which in turn was bought by the german Deutsche Bank. His last post before resigning to take his senior role in the CIA was to head Bankers Trust – Alex Brown's private client business, dealing with the accounts and investments of wealthy customers around the world.
Now, as we've just seen that the Commission Report contradicts itself, let's see other aspect of the Inside-Trade:
On Sptember 10th, 1,535 contracts changed hands on options that bring a profit if AMR stock falls below $30 per share before Oct. 20. That was more than 60 times the previous daily average, according to a Bloomberg analysis of options market data (BLOOMBERG NEWS, Sept.20, 2001, also CBS News, Sept.26,2001)
In "Unusual Options Market Activity with an Application to the Terrorist Attacks of Sept. 11, 2001" by Allen M. Poteshman of the University of Illinois, the author states:
|"When the option market activity in the days leading up to the terrorist attacks is compared to the benchmark distributions, the volume ratios and call volume indicators are seen to be at typical levels. The indicator of long put volume, however, appears to be unusually high, which is consistent with informed investors having traded in the option market in advance of the attacks."
According to Bloomberg News, Sept.20, 2001, October $30 put options for UAL soared, with 2,000 contracts traded on Sept. 6, three trading days before the attack. That was 285 times the previous average trading.
According to CBS News, Sept. 26, 2001, there has been a jump in UAL put options 90 times above normal between September 6 and September 10, and 285 times higher than average on the Thursday before the attack.
The Put/Call Ratio for UAL was 25 times higher than normal:
But there were more suspicious trades before 9/11.
On 21 September 2001, the Herzliyya International Policy Institute for Counterterrorism, states in the report entitled "Black Tuesday: The World's Largest Insider Trading Scam?" :
|"Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., which occupied 22 floors of the World Trade Center, saw 2,157 of its October $45.00 put options bought in the three trading days before Black Tuesday; this compares to an average of 27 contracts per day before September 6."
That means 719 daily average the last three day before 9/11, compared to 27 daily average. That's 26 times more than before. The report goes on:
|"Merrill Lynch & Co., with headquarters near the Twin Towers, saw 12,215 October $45.00 put options bought in the four trading days before the attacks; the previous average volume in these options had been 252 contracts per day"
That's 12 times more than the previous average volume.
|Morgan Stanley's stock dropped 13% and Merrill Lynch's stock dropped 11.5% when the market reopened.
Again, Bloomberg News, Sept.20, 2001:
|Citigroup Inc., which has estimated that its Travelers insurance unit may pay $500 million in claims from the World Trade Center attack, had about 45 times the normal volume during three trading days before the attack for options that profit if the stock falls below $40. Citigroup shares fell $1.25 in late trading to $38.09.
"European regulators are examing trades in Germany's Munich Re, Switzerland's Swiss Re, and AXA of France, all major reinsurers with exposure to the Black Tuesday disaster.... It is not clear if any trades in these stocks ring alarm bells."
Also, note that German Central Bank president Ernst Welteke reports that a study by his bank indicates,
|"There are ever clearer signs that there were activities on international financial markets that must have been carried out with the necessary expert knowledge",
not only in shares of heavily affected industries such as airlines and insurance companies, but also in gold and oil. [Daily Telegraph, 9/23/01] His researchers have found
|"almost irrefutable proof of insider trading" [Miami Herald, 9/24/01]. "If you look at movements in markets before and after the attack, it makes your brow furrow. But it is extremely difficult to really verify it."
Nevertheless, he believes that
|"in one or the other case it will be possible to pinpoint the source." [Fox News, 9/22/01]
Welteke reports "fundamentally inexplicable rise" in oil prices before the attacks [Miami Herald, 9/24/01] and then a further rise of 13 percent the day after the attacks. Gold rises nonstop for days after the attacks. [Daily Telegraph, 9/23/01]
There were also other suspicious winners of 9/11:
Raytheon saw its stock rise immediately after the attack. Purchases of call options on Raytheon stock increased sixfold on the day before the attack.
|A Raytheon option that makes money if shares are more than $25 each had 232 options contracts traded on the day before the attacks, almost six times the total number of trades that had occurred before that day. A contract represents options on 100 shares. Raytheon shares soared almost 37 percent to $34.04 during the first week of post-attack U.S. trading. Bloomberg News, 10/3/01
Five-year US Treasury notes were purchased in abnormally high volums before the attack, and their buyers were rewarded with sharp increases in their value following the attack.
|The Wall Street Journal reported on October 2 that the ongoing investigation by the SEC into suspicious stock trades had been joined by a Secret Service probe into an unusually high volume of five-year US Treasury note purchases prior to the attacks. The Treasury note transactions included a single $5 billion trade. As the Journal explained: "Five-year Treasury notes are among the best investments in the event of a world crisis, especially one that hits the US. The notes are prized for their safety and their backing by the US government, and usually rally when investors flee riskier investments, such as stocks." The value of these notes, the Journal pointed out, has risen sharply since the events of September 11. (Suspicious trading points to advance knowledge by big investors of September 11 attacks, wsws.org, 10/5/01)
Let's summarize:
-a jump in United Airlines put options 90 times above normal between September 6 and September 10, and 285 times higher than average on the Thursday before the attack.
-a jump in American Airlines put options 60 times above normal on the day before the attacks. No similar trading ocurred on any other airlines
-Morgan Stanley saw, between September 7 and September 10, an increase of 26 times in the purchase of put options on its shares.
-Merrill-Lynch saw a jump of more than 12 times the normal level of put opinions in the four trading days before the attacks.
-a jump of Raytheon call options more than 6 times higher than the average
-extraordinary high volumes in gold and US Treasury notes.
Shouldn't there be a real investigation, even if the result would be that the investors have "no conceivable ties to al Qaeda"?
Bottom Line: Loose Change is backed up by the facts. Screw Loose Change didn't debunked Loose Change.

Daily Tax Report: State provides authoritative coverage of state and local tax developments across the 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, tracking legislative and regulatory updates,...
Nov. 2 — Missouri voters could take new sales taxes on services off the table if they approve a proposed constitutional amendment on Nov. 8.
The measure, which appears on the ballot as Constitutional Amendment 4, would prohibit state and local governments from imposing the sales or use tax on services that weren't subject to the tax before 2015. Missouri, like most states, imposes sales tax on relatively few services, relying almost entirely on sales of tangible goods for sales tax revenue.
A poll taken in early October by a Missouri newspaper suggested that the measure hadn't gained much traction with voters. According to the poll, taken by Remington Research Group for the Missouri Times, 49 percent of voters opposed the measure, 23 percent supported it and 27 percent were undecided.
Supporters of the measure, including the Missouri Association of Realtors, say that the threat of new taxes on services is real, pointing out that Missouri lawmakers have considered new sales taxes on services in the past seven legislative sessions. They argue that lawmakers around the country increasingly see sales taxes on services as an answer to their states' budget woes. In addition, supporters contend that such taxes are inherently regressive, hitting low- and middle-income taxpayers hardest.
Scott Charton, spokesman for Missourians for Fair Taxation, a group set up by the realtors' association to support the measure, told Bloomberg BNA Nov. 1 that Amendment 4 was a "pre-emptive strike against new sales taxes on services."
"You don't wait until the house is on fire to get a fire extinguisher," he said.
But the proposal has drawn fire from both ends of the political spectrum: from the right as a base-narrowing measure that will make comprehensive tax overhaul more difficult to achieve, and from the left as an unnecessary and potentially harmful restriction on the ability of state and local governments to generate the revenue needed for important government services.
Opponents include the Missouri Municipal League and the Missouri Budget Project, as well as the Washington, D.C.-based Tax Foundation, a free-market-oriented tax policy group.
Scott Drenkard, director of state projects for the Tax Foundation, told Bloomberg BNA Nov. 2 that the sales tax is in a "slowly unfolding crisis across the country," and that extending it to cover services may be necessary for it to continue as a meaningful source of government revenue in a changing economy.
"The sales tax started back in the 1930s, when the economy still was heavily focused on goods rather than services," he said. "And as originally conceived, it was limited to goods. But now we're in an increasingly services-based economy, and restricting the sales tax to goods leads to distortions and higher rates elsewhere."
Drenkard said sales taxes on services could be a good idea in the context of a tax overhaul plan that would broaden the base and lower rates overall. But the Tax Foundation doesn't support taxing business-to-business services, which increase the final cost of goods to end users and can produce a "pyramiding effect," he said.
Traci Gleason, a spokeswoman for the Missouri Budget Project, told Bloomberg BNA Nov. 1 that the measure was, at best, unnecessary in the current policy climate, and could turn out to be damaging to the state in future years.
"Missouri really doesn't tax many services right now, and there's no sign that lawmakers are going to start doing so," she said. "But we think that it's very unwise to remove the possibility from the Legislature in a changing economy, and when we may need the revenue to support needed services in the future."

'Transparent' Shows TV's First Transgender Full-Frontal Nude Scene• thedailybeast.com by Kevin Fallon
Before Season 4 of Transparent started production, transgender actress Alexandra Billings, who plays Maura's friend and mentor Davina on the series, walked into the writer's room to pitch. She said she wanted to be naked.
That, of course, is a crude simplification of the process. Billings' friend and Transparent co-star Trace Lysette suggested that the two of them talk to the show's writers about their lives and experiences as transgender women, with the hope that they might incorporate them, and therefore a broader reflection of the varied transgender experience, into the show's storylines.
"And I asked for this specifically," Billings says, talking with The Daily Beast alongside Lysette ahead of the show's fourth season premiere. "It was Alexandra's idea," Transparent creator Jill Soloway corroborates. "She was like, 'I'm ready to show my body.'"

Editing News #1—2018
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has spent most of their time supporting the 2017 wikitext editor mode, which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and improving the visual diff tool. Their work board is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor, and improving the visual diff tool.
Recent changes
- The 2017 wikitext editor is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices. It has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools. The team have been comparing the performance of different editing environments. They have studied how long it takes to open the page and start typing. The study uses data for more than one million edits during December and January. Some changes have been made to improve the speed of the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual editor. Recently, the 2017 wikitext editor opened fastest for most edits, and the 2010 WikiEditor was fastest for some edits. More information will be posted at mw:Contributors/Projects/Editing performance.
- The visual diff tool was developed for the visual editor. It is now available to all users of the visual editor and the 2017 wikitext editor. When you review your changes, you can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs. You can also enable the new Beta Feature for "Visual diffs". The Beta Feature lets you use the visual diff tool to view other people's edits on page histories and Special:RecentChanges. [1]
- Wikitext syntax highlighting is available as a Beta Feature for both the 2017 wikitext editor and the 2010 wikitext editor. [2]
- The citoid service automatically translates URLs, DOIs, ISBNs, and PubMed id numbers into wikitext citation templates. It is very popular and useful to editors, although it can be a bit tricky to set up. Your wiki can have this service. Please read the instructions. You can ask the team to help you enable citoid at your wiki.
Let's work together
- The team will talk about editing tools at an upcoming Wikimedia Foundation metrics and activities meeting.
- Wikibooks, Wikiversity, and other communities may have the visual editor made available by default to contributors. If your community wants this, then please contact Dan Garry.
- The
<references />block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens. This makes footnotes easier to read. You can request multi-column support for your wiki. [3]
- If you aren't reading this in your preferred language, then please help us with translations! Subscribe to the Translators mailing list or contact us directly. We will notify you when the next issue is ready for translation. Thank you!

Time to bring embedded maps ('mapframe') to most Wikipedias
Time to bring embedded maps ('mapframe') to most Wikipedias
Please help translate to your language
Mapframe is a feature that enables users to easily display interactive maps right on wiki pages. Currently, most Wikipedias don't have mapframe. But fifteen Wikipedias, along with all the other Wikimedia projects, are using mapframe today to display maps on thousands of pages.
A little background: over the last few months, the Foundation's Collaboration team has been working to improve the stability and user experience of the maps service. In addition, a question about long-term support for the maps service was recently settled, and a small team has been assigned for routine maintenance. Given these developments, bringing the benefits of mapframe to Wikipedias that lack the feature seems both safe and supportable. Nine Wikipedias that use a stricter version of Flagged Revisions will not get mapframe in this release.
Maps are a valuable form of visual data that can improve readers' understanding across a wide range of topics. If you know of any reasons why mapframe shouldn't be implemented on your Gpedia, let us know on the project talk page. Unless we hear from you, we plan to release mapframe to most Wikipedias in May, 2018. So, if you foresee an issue, please let us hear from you. Otherwise, happy mapping!

Please help translate to your language Hi everyone. The Readers web team has recently begun working on exposing issue templates on the mobile website. Currently, details about issues with page content are generally hidden on the mobile website. This leaves readers unaware of the reliability of the pages they are reading. The goal of this project is to improve awareness of particular issues within an article on the mobile web. We will do this by changing the visual styling of page issues.
So far, we have drafted a proposal on the design and implementation of the project. We were also able to run user testing on the proposed designs. The tests so far have positive results. Here is a quick summary of what we learned:
- The new treatment increases awareness of page issues among participants. This is true particularly when they are in a more evaluative/critical mode.
- Page issues make sense to readers and they understand how they work
- Readers care about page issues and consider them important
- Readers had overwhelmingly positive sentiments towards Gpedia associated with learning about page issues
Our next step would be to start implementing these changes. We wanted to reach out to you for any concerns, thoughts, and suggestions you might have before beginning development. Please visit the project page where we have more information and mockups of how this may look. Please leave feedback on the talk page.

New user group for editing sitewide CSS / JS
(Please help translate to your language)
Hi all!
To improve the security of our readers and editors, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed. (These are pages like
MediaWiki:Common.css and
MediaWiki:Vector.js which contain code that is executed in the browsers of users of the site.)
A new user group,
interface-admin, has been created.
Starting four weeks from now, only members of this group will be able edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with
.css or
.js that is either in the
MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage).
You can learn more about the motivation behind the change here.
Please add users who need to edit CSS/JS to the new group (this can be done the same way new administrators are added, by stewards or local bureaucrats). This is a dangerous permission; a malicious user or a hacker taking over the account of a careless interface-admin can abuse it in far worse ways than admin permissions could be abused. Please only assign it to users who need it, who are trusted by the community, and who follow common basic password and computer security practices (use strong passwords, do not reuse passwords, use two-factor authentication if possible, do not install software of questionable origin on your machine, use antivirus software if that's a standard thing in your environment).

Enabling a helpful feature for Template editors
The team working on TemplateStyles at the Wikimedia Foundation would like to enable TemplateStyles on this wiki.
TemplateStyles is a feature to allow non-administrators to write and manage CSS styles for templates. It allows contributors who edit templates to separate content and presentation. A good web practice that makes it easier to manage the layout of templates. If you don't edit templates, this will not have any impact on your contributions.
TemplateStyles is useful for a few reasons.
- It makes it possible for templates to work better on mobile.
- It cuts out confusion on where to apply CSS rules.
- Editing CSS is currently limited to administrators, which is a major barrier to participation.
- All stylesheets must be loaded on all pages (whether they actually use the page or not), which wastes bandwidth and makes debugging style rules more difficult.
You can learn more about TemplateStyles on MediaWiki.org. Technical documentation is also available.
This is an optional feature and no one must use it, but template contributors are encouraged to do so! Please discuss and let us know if there are any concerns. If there are no concerns we will proceed to deploy the feature on the 9th of August.
Thank you.

Editing of sitewide CSS/JS is only possible for interface administrators from now
(Please help translate to your language)
Hi all,
as announced previously, permission handling for CSS/JS pages has changed: only members of the
interface-admin (Interface administrators) group, and a few highly privileged global groups such as stewards, can edit CSS/JS pages that they do not own (that is, any page ending with .css or .js that is either in the MediaWiki: namespace or is another user's user subpage). This is done to improve the security of readers and editors of Wikimedia projects. More information is available at Creation of separate user group for editing sitewide CSS/JS. If you encounter any unexpected problems, please contact me or file a bug.

Read-only mode for up to an hour on 12 September and 10 October

The Wikimedia Foundation will be testing its secondary data centre. This will make sure that Gpedia and the other Wikimedia wikis can stay online even after a disaster. To make sure everything is working, the Wikimedia Technology department needs to do a planned test. This test will show if they can reliably switch from one data centre to the other. It requires many teams to prepare for the test and to be available to fix any unexpected problems.
They will switch all traffic to the secondary data center on Wednesday, 12 September 2018. On Wednesday, 10 October 2018, they will switch back to the primary data center.
Unfortunately, because of some limitations in MediaWiki, all editing must stop when we switch. We apologize for this disruption, and we are working to minimize it in the future.
You will be able to read, but not edit, all wikis for a short period of time.
- You will not be able to edit for up to an hour on Wednesday, 12 September and Wednesday, 10 October. The test will start at 14:00 UTC (15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST, 10:00 EDT, 07:00 PDT, 23:00 JST, and in New Zealand at 02:00 NZST on Thursday 13 September and Thursday 11 October).
- If you try to edit or save during these times, you will see an error message. We hope that no edits will be lost during these minutes, but we can't guarantee it. If you see the error message, then please wait until everything is back to normal. Then you should be able to save your edit. But, we recommend that you make a copy of your changes first, just in case.
Other effects:
- Background jobs will be slower and some may be dropped. Red links might not be updated as quickly as normal. If you create an article that is already linked somewhere else, the link will stay red longer than usual. Some long-running scripts will have to be stopped.
- There will be code freezes for the weeks of 10 September 2018 and 8 October 2018. Non-essential code deployments will not happen.
This project may be postponed if necessary. You can read the schedule at wikitech.wikimedia.org. Any changes will be announced in the schedule. There will be more notifications about this. Please share this information with your community. /User:Johan(WMF) (talk)

Editing News #2—2018
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter
Since the last newsletter, the Editing Team has wrapped up most of their work on the 2017 wikitext editor and the visual diff tool. The team has begun investigating the needs of editors who use mobile devices. Their work board is available in Phabricator. Their current priorities are fixing bugs and improving mobile editing.
Recent changes
- The Editing team has published an initial report about mobile editing.
- The Editing team has begun a design study of visual editing on the mobile website. New editors have trouble doing basic tasks on a smartphone, such as adding links to Gpedia articles. You can read the report.
- The Reading team is working on a separate mobile-based contributions project.
- The 2006 wikitext editor is no longer supported. If you used that toolbar, then you will no longer see any toolbar. You may choose another editing tool in your editing preferences, local gadgets, or beta features.
- The Editing team described the history and status of VisualEditor in this recorded public presentation (starting at 29 minutes, 30 seconds).
- The Language team released a new version of Content Translation (CX2) last month, on International Translation Day. It integrates the visual editor to support templates, tables, and images. It also produces better wikitext when the translated article is published. [4]
Let's work together
- The Editing team wants to improve visual editing on the mobile website. Please read their ideas and tell the team what you think would help editors who use the mobile site.
- The Community Wishlist Survey begins next week.
- If you aren't reading this in your preferred language, then please help us with translations! Subscribe to the Translators mailing list or contact us directly. We will notify you when the next issue is ready for translation. Thank you!

Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web
Change coming to how certain templates will appear on the mobile web
Please help translate to your language
In a few weeks the Readers web team will be changing how some templates look on the mobile web site. We will make these templates more noticeable when viewing the article. We ask for your help in updating any templates that don't look correct.
What kind of templates? Specifically templates that notify readers and contributors about issues with the content of an article – the text and information in the article. Examples like Template:Unreferenced or Template:More citations needed. Right now these notifications are hidden behind a link under the title of an article. We will format templates like these (mostly those that use Template:Ambox or message box templates in general) to show a short summary under the page title. You can tap on the "Learn more" link to get more information.
For template editors we have some recommendations on how to make templates that are mobile-friendly and also further documentation on our work so far.
If you have questions about formatting templates for mobile, please leave a note on the project talk page or file a task in Phabricator and we will help you.
Thank you!

FileExporter beta feature
A new beta feature will soon be released on all wikis: The FileExporter. It allows exports of files from a local wiki to Wikimedia Commons, including their file history and page history. Which files can be exported is defined by each wiki's community: Please check your wiki's configuration file if you want to use this feature.
The FileExporter has already been a beta feature on mediawiki.org, meta.wikimedia, deWP, faWP, arWP, koWP and on wikisource.org. After some functionality was added, it's now becoming a beta feature on all wikis. Deployment is planned for January 16. More information can be found on the project page.
As always, feedback is highly appreciated. If you want to test the FileExporter, please activate it in your user preferences. The best place for feedback is the central talk page. Thank you from Wikimedia Deutschland's Technical Wishes project.

There is a story that after an advisor had presented a well-reasoned proposal, President Franklin D. Roosevelt said something like: "Sounds good. Now go find me a constituency to make me do it."
As we approach the first major political convention of the season, many of us are asking ourselves how We-the-People, in our fragmented and conflicting constituencies, can get our elected officials to dance with us -- to the familiar tunes of freedom and justice, with the steady beat of equality -- in the fundamental dance of democracy. How can we, as constituencies, make our president do what we believe is right, and how do we know which candidates we can we trust to dance with "them what brung" them after the election?
This year we already know who our suitors will be, for both parties. We are already hearing and seeing broadcasts of contrived, shrill scripts showing what sneaky, skunky fellows their opponents are and how noble and principled their candidates are. Blogs and water-cooler conversations are rife with hearsay, half-truths, and reiterated sound-bites, and often include words that newspapers won't print..
With the electorate already pretty evenly divided between Bush supporters and Kerry supporters, and a margin of "undecided" voters large enough to swing the election, we already know that "them what brung" the next administration will be an uneasy constituency of partisans and skeptics. We are also uncomfortably aware that recent elections have been unbalanced by large campaign contributions, swayed by undercurrents of racism and religion, and pressured by fear-mongering about terrorism and loss of liberties.
We are also concerned about the tunes we are going have to dance to. What fundamental principles should drive the rhythms and harmonies of the next administration, and who's going to call the tunes -- the president or the constituents?
At the funeral games for President Reagan, George Bush Sr. observed that Reagan " ... just had certain basic principles that he tried to adhere to. Taxes are too high. Communism is bad. Things of that nature that are fundamental principles ..."
Funny. Those are pretty ethnic tunes for a great nation. I thought fundamental principles should generalize to the human condition across all ages and cultures, more like "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you", or "all men are created equal... endowed with ... inalienable rights [of] ... life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
I find the current administration's fundamental music much worse, and nearly undanceable -- complex fugues of Medicare reform that benefits drug companies more than citizens; patriotic marches to pre-emptive wars in which the poor can die and the well-connected can profit; fundamentalist hymns about homosexuality and marriage; discordant improvisations on economic themes of tax-cuts and corporate privilege.
Edward Countryman, historian of the American Revolution, observed "Leaders are nothing ... without followers. Neither the colonial elite nor the Sons of Liberty could have done anything serious about British policy without enormous popular support."
The dance of democracy requires both strong leaders and strong popular support. As Americans, our patrimony is not to be dumb worshipful, childlike followers of leaders who know what is best for us, but to be adult sons and daughters of liberty -- grown-up, independent, responsible persons, capable of reason and judgment -- who can be equal partners in the complex dance of self-governance.
How do we do it? First, we need to stop seeing candidates in terms of non-negotiable binary oppositions, either all good or all bad. Candidates are human, like the rest of us. Rather than scoring candidates by their past words and deeds and selecting a winner, it is better to examine how they respond to new ideas and criticism, how they question themselves and listen to questions of constituents, how they handle power and use force, and how they promote trust and respect in communities at every level.
We should stop complaining about what candidates are or aren't saying or doing. Instead, tell candidates what you need, what you want, what you think is important and what you expect. Keep reminding them of the principles you consider fundamental, the tunes you want to dance to. Don't lose your chance to dance over a single issue. Note that Dennis Kucinich recently recognized that the anti-war stance he hoped would be a plank in the Democratic party platform didn't have a large enough constituency to be adopted. But Kucinich has neither given up on opposing war, nor withdrawn his support for Kerry.
Finally, one question I hear in many forms these days is about how and how much a particular candidate "cares about people". It's a pretty basic question, that goes right to the heart of the democratic experiment. People matter. Constituents matter. Leaders who value "them what brung" them matter.
The dance of democracy matters. And We-the-People must call the tunes.

Pestana Carlton Madeira Hotel Reviews
Mr B Drain, London
|3rd Sep 2017
|Pestana Carlton Madeira Hotel
|Double Or Twin - Sea View
|Half Board
Excellent location and hotel layout but several little things were annoying. We didn't get the double bed we asked for. Our sea view also included a view of the building site of a new hotel with the accompanying noise. Tea and coffee in the room is only replenished at an added cost of 4 euros. Plenty of wardrobe space but hardly any coat hangers and no more were provided despite two requests.
Entertainment is poor and is finished by 11pm except for the Sunday disco which finishes at 11.30pm. Only the Taverna bar open after 6pm and that closes by 11.45pm at latest.
There were 3 private functions during our stay which resulted in certain facilities not being available to the paying guests and the entertainment being changed or curtailed. It seems this hotel's main focus is on their time share clients.

Lovely hotel, great location. Very good choice at breakfast. Glad we went B&B as so many places to go out to eat locally and in Funchal.
Only negative; drinks far to expensive in the hotel which is maybe why the lounges etc were almost empty. Felt sorry for the evening entertainment who were all very good, who were performing to very few people.
Hard to get loungers by the garden pool but always some free down at the Atlantic pool, which was very nice

Potential Spoilers:
Scheherazade 'Sadie' Keating Edit
Since Roland is tasked with following affairs related to Sadie, he meets her already knowing of her abilities and background. Due to this, Roland is quick to trust Sadie's judgement in Egypt. Roland is naturally flirtatious to a degree and frequently refers to Sadie as 'love', though that could just be his English nature toward women. Sadie also often reciprocates Roland's flirtatious advances, even on the friendship route. The two work well together and though Roland tries his best to keep Sadie out of his dangerous affairs, once she inevitably gets involved, he will do anything to protect her.
Sterling Evans Edit
While Roland knows that much of what Sterling does is not directly his fault, Roland does not trust him and warns Sadie to stay away on multiple occasions.
In the main adventure in Australia, Sterling corners Roland. While Sterling greets Roland and says it's nice to meet him (which Roland responds with the feeling is not mutual), Sterling steals Roland's ID and Roland threatens to beat him to a pulp. In Roland's' Peru adventure, Sterling gets beat up by Viktor and Roland asks Sadie, 'Dare I hope he got shot? Wait. Some of the boys from your convoy told me about this, but I didn't... he was the gringo on the other side? The one that Viktor... Viktored? This is the best day I've had in a very long time, Sadie.'
Needless to say, Roland is not fond of Sterling, though Sterling seems indifferent to Roland.
The loss of Roland's ID may also be a contributing factor in one of Roland's endings, so if that turns out to be the case, Roland will be even more furious at Sterling.
Felix Weber Edit
Felix only meets Roland once, and that encounter only happens if you beat Sterling: The New Orleans Adventure before beating The Book from the Low Countries Adventure. Even so, in that brief encounter, Felix asks if Roland is okay after being kidnapped, so Felix holds no ill will toward him. Roland does not really mention Felix, but in that brief encounter, he was hospitable.
Nigel Hemsworth Edit
Nigel and Roland meet in Roland's main adventure when Roland goes to Nigel to translate some documents (actually to talk to Sadie). Nigel is very chipper about Roland and refers to him as a gentleman. Other than that, they do not meet again.
Anna Wardenclyffe Edit
Anna meets Roland during The Anna Adventure. Here, Roland leads them through the pigeon gauntlet. Anna and Roland exchange pleasantries and are on good terms.
If dating Sadie, Roland goes with Sadie, Anna, and Evelyn to the movies.
Evelyn Fraser-Hyde Edit
As expected, Evelyn thinks that Roland is an attractive gentleman. Roland also likes Evelyn and thinks she is very lively, though he probably does not find her as attractive as she finds him. Their biggest interaction is during Easter on Roland's route.
Rüdeger von Prenzwald Edit
While they never physically meet, Ruddy knows about Roland and has Sterling steal his passport. Due to this, neither likes the other.
Zul al Zan Edit
Their relationship is never directly shown, though they do know each other. Zul knows Roland as his undercover name Rowan, and in Roland: The Australian Adventure, Roland 'warns' Zul about Owney Madden breaking into his office. Roland does not trust Zul.

You must have proper nutrition in order to be healthy. This ensures you feel better each day and look healthy,too. Eating right is essential for living right. These tips will let you make the right changes.
Trade your white flour products for products made with whole grains. Whole wheat and other whole grains contain more protein and fiber than their refined counterparts. Whole grains are a much heather option that will leave you feeling full long after you eat them. As an added bonus, they can also help lower your cholesterol. Make sure that the primary items on the list is "whole". "
Although salads are healthy, the salad dressing is not. Thick, creamy dressings in particular add a lot of nutritional drawbacks like fat and contribute nothing positive. Instead, opt for vinaigrette-style dressings or create your own simple dressing using olive oil and vinegar. You can also add cranberries or walnuts to your salad.
By now you know that trans fats are not good for you. In order to choose healthier foods, read food labels because they must disclose whether the food contains trans fats. Consumption of foods with a large amount of trans fats in them can result in heart disease. Trans fats replace the good cholesterol, HDL, with bad cholesterol, LDL.
In order to get sufficient protein without eating too much red meat, it is smart to explore the option of eating Quinoa. It is one of the rare non-meat foods to contain many essential amino acids. It also contains plenty of vitamins, and is completely gluten-free. Since its flavor is pleasantly nutty and mild, this is one health food that tastes good and is also good for you.
When choosing a diet, be sure it provides proper nutrition, and make sure you eat around 8oz. of lean meat daily. Eating enough meat also ensures that you are getting plenty of protein and iron. Great choices include bison, venison or any other sort of lean meat.
People need to realize that highly milled grains are not as nutritious as their natural counterparts. However, getting rid of these grains means that you depriving yourself of fiber and essential nutrients. Do you want to throw away those nutrients and then try to replace them with supplements or other foods? Of course not, it really is not a good idea.
Try to eat foods from all of the food groups on the pyramid. Consume many different foods to make sure that you're getting the nutrients your body needs.
It is a good idea to have a snack before you head off to enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner. This reduces the chance of eating too much, which can be damaging to your health. This can help you avoid adding on too many extra calories.
To speed your recovery from illnesses, eat foods that are high in zinc. Zinc can boost immune system health, make you recover from illness quicker, and prevent future illness. Some good sources of zinc are wheat germ, strawberries, pumpkin seeds, and peaches. An added bonus to these foods is that they also contain antioxidants which help to fight free radicals.
Try reducing the amount of meat you eat by exploring the world of vegetarian cooking once or twice a week. This helps decrease unhealthy animal fat consumptions. In addition, it will save you money, help save the planet, and it's delicious.
Load your pizza up with veggies. Incorporate some toppings that you like as well. Make sure they eat it all.
Pears, berries and peaches all make for quick and tasty puree. This will make a sweet spread that you can put on pita chips or use as a dip for pretzels. Mix and match fun fruits to keep things fresh and exciting.
In our culture, french fries and other potato products are staples of most "satisfying" meals. Many times we believe that a meal is incomplete unless we have some sort of potato dish on the table. But, replacing those potato sides with other veggies will add nutrition in your diet.
If you are in the kitchen making something that requires microwaving, you are eating something that is not nutritious. Anything you can nuke is going to be processed and stripped of any essential nutrients.
Be sure that you are eating enough meat. To build muscles, your body needs a quality source of protein, such as meat. Chicken, pork, or beef – the choice is yours. They can all help to meet the nutritional needs of your muscles. You want around 10 ounces of protein each day.
Try to stay away from grains for a little while. Humans originally lived by eating fruit, nuts, vegetables, beans and meat. In the big scheme of things, grains have not been in existence for a long time. You might feel better if you don't eat grains.
Do not have too many cheat days in your schedule. Yes you can have a slice or two of pizza, but not the whole thing. Make an effort to control your portion sizes so that you don't return to bad habits and gain weight.
Choosing the right nuts can boost your nutrition. Almonds are high in fiber and good fats, as well as being delicious.
Let your mistakes go. When you start to beat yourself up is when you are more likely to fall back into bad habits. Just call it a cheat day and move on. Being hard on yourself will not help you.
When preparing meat, the healthiest ways to cook them include grilling, broiling, baking, and roasting. You can replace butter with cooking spray to reduce the amount of fat you eat. When you brown beef, be sure to strain and rinse it in hot water. This helps get rid of the extra fat on your beef.
Avoid the desire to simultaneously change every aspect in your life. Instead, make a bucket list and then tackle each thing individually so that you are not overwhelmed. Begin with the worst offenders, like fried foods and sodas, and it will become easier once you get accustomed to the changes.
Try making a veggie pizza that your whole family will love. Use cheese and pepperoni, then add tomatoes, mushrooms and onions. Do not let them pick at the pizza.
A great, easy meal may include some beans, corn and a bit of chicken. There are plenty of starches and amino acids contained in this meal. While it misses a lot of non-essential vitamins, this constitutes a consumable meal that can support a human body very well. The food pyramids developed for nutritional guides are actually very old, and although they aren't inherently incorrect, they lack consideration for a lot of the recent discoveries in nutritional science.
Make sure you select dairy products wisely. While dairy items have nutritional content ranging from potassium to proteins, make sure that you get the ones that are low in fat. Milk should be skim or low-fat to reduce calories without sacrificing nutrients. If you suffer from lactose intolerance, drink soy milk or lactose-free milk. Cheese has a lot of saturated fat. Eat reduced-fat cheese instead.
Sugar-laden cereals are not a good choice for a nutritious breakfast. Besides a high sugar content, these cereals are also unhealthy in a variety of other ways. Switch your sugary cereal for oatmeal or another whole-grain cereal to enjoy a meal that is still fast, but that keeps you full longer.
Go on, smell a banana, apple or some peppermint! These foods can keep hunger away. Sometimes, just the scent will trick your body into feeling satisfied. If you aren't hungry, you won't overeat.
Limit the sugar you give your kids. More children are developing diabetes than ever before because they are being fed foods that are full of sugar, preservatives and chemicals. Any parent, even those who are busy, can come up with a healthy diet for their kids; some planning is all it takes.
Cooking more of your meals in your own kitchen can make it easier for you to eat nutritious foods. Steaming and boiling are fast and healthy alternatives to frying or baking food in butter or oil. Choosing healthy ways to prepare food will help one maintain their nutrition.
Drinking plenty of water is the most common, and important tip to remember as you are working to stay healthy. Our bodies consist of a large percentage of water, you should keep it hydrated. It's important to drink as much water as possible throughout your day, with eight glasses being your goal.
Eat natural foods. Foods that are processed are not good for you. Focus more on fresh produce and vegetables and meats that are lean. If you can't refrain from buying processed foods at the supermarket, have someone else shop for you.
One tip for a happy and healthy life is by controlling your weight. It's easy to eat too much of the wrong foods today. Be sure you're on a diet that's healthy so that you can get a lot of rest because not resting enough can make you gain a lot of weight.
Don't try to change everything in your life at the same time. Make yourself a list of your improvement wishes and prioritize them. Begin with the worst culprits, such as fried foods and sodas. Once you have more experience, you can deal with the more difficult things.
Sort out your plate into sections. This will help you to isolate each of the food groups that you are eating. Split your plate according to vegetables, starches, and lean protein. You can easily get nutrition using this balance.
Keep meals simple and delicious. You can be sure that your family eats right if you stock up on enjoyable foods that can be prepared quickly. Keep in mind that nutritious foods are useless unless eaten. If you are proactively mindful about eating better, your whole family can have better nutrition.
If you have a sweet tooth, have a bit of dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is a bit healthier and has a lot of antioxidants.
Your body needs fuel in the morning in order to meet the day's forthcoming challenges. Breakfast is the most essential meal in providing you with energy. Eat more foods that have a lot of carbs and protein. The body begins to process such foods, releasing key nutrients, creating energy and helping you feel full.
Adults require between 1000-1300 mg of calcium per day to maintain bone density and prevent injury. Cheese and yogurt have high amounts of calcium. Some non-dairy calcium comes from tofu, broccoli, and kale. Eating these foods will help the bones to stay strong.
To balance out your diet, choose a variety of cooked food as well as raw. It is recommended that the ratio of cooked to uncooked food that you eat be around 2:1. That way you can know that you are getting full nutrition from these foods, instead of having vitamins and minerals "cook out". More fresh produce can help you do this.
Regulate the amount of soft drinks you consume by aiming to replace half with water. Sometimes people drink lots of these unhealthy drinks without being aware of their total consumption. Knowing how many calories you consume from beverages in a day might surprise you and help you cut back.
Successful exercise includes components of mindfulness, commitment, and endurance. These particular components are more mental than they are physical. It's a safe bet that your ability to exercise is mostly mental. Activities that promote a healthy mind and body are important in one's life.
Be aware that canned vegetables, fruits and meats contain a high amount of sodium. If your diet contains an excess amount of sodium, you run the risk of many health problems such as heart disease and high blood pressure. If you are eating processed meats know that they have a lot of salt and this is bad for you.
Once or twice per week, replace red meat with a serving of healthy fish. The omega-3 acids in fish help to maintain blood and brain health. Do not go for a lot of seafood that has mercury, like tuna.
Learn to recognize when you are full. Young people eat fast and burn calories fast, but this ability decreases as you get older. Knowing the signs your body is displaying when you're full can help you avoid over-eating.
This article has many tips on diet and nutrition. Turn them into a plan for action. Your health should be your top priority.
Know your carbohydrates. Some folks think all kinds of carbs are unhealthy. There is no truth to this. Complex cards actually facilitate bodily functions. You will need to know the differences when you go to the supermarket.

Spamming is the art of shooting your opponents penetrating through walls,doors or any other thin textures without exposing yourself.
Here are some of the general tips that one should keep in mind :
1. Concept of Double-Textures : The art of avoiding being spammed IE. whenever you take cover behind a double or more texture you wont get spammed by small weapons.
2. Concept of Silencer of Colt : Not only hides your direction and position from your enemy, it also serves the purpose of letting you hear whether or not you are spamming correctly as it itself doesn't cause much sound.
3. Concept of Spamming with sounds : Try to follow the sounds and go for intelligent guesses of your enemy positions, before you start spamming. Also go for short bursts instead of spraying enabling you to follow the "aah" sound or the bullet hitting the head sound.
4. Spam mostly when you are waiting for backup or at the beginning of the round after taking necessary cover.
5. Try not to do spamming when there are lots of enemies in front of you and you are alone, because you would never have enough emmo to kill them all.
6. Powerful weapons like awp can kill enemy through 4 textures also,so just go through overviews of every map and enjoy spamming...........
Peeking is the art of cautiously popping out to check out for enemies generally from edges and corners of maps.It can broadly be classified into the following types :
1. Normal Peeking : You just strafe out the edge for a second and strafe back to cover.
2. Jiggle Peeking : You jump and strafe out the edge and strafe back mid-air to cover.
3. Crouch Peeking : 1. You crouch and move forward to peek slowly (generally to peek a higher ground).
4. You duck repeatedly to peek over a cover.
5. Jump Peeking : You jump repeatedly to peek over a cover (generally to peek higher than the crouch peek).
Money Distribution:-
1. Winning a round as CT always fetches you 3250 $ each irrespective of how you win the round--whether its a target save, whole opponent team elimination or defusing the bomb. However, as T if you win the round with the c4 blasting the team gets 3500 $ each.
2. Losing the first round fetches you 1400 $ and 500 $ (losing bonus) extra for every subsequent loss. But if your first lost round is after a win the counter starts from 1500 $. The maximum amount that you reach is 3500 $. Every bomb plant fetches each team member 800 $ (if at all they proceed to lose the round).
3. The losing bonus gets reset in either of the two ways. Firstly, if you win a round in-between. Secondly, if you save out ie. if you are not dead after losing the round. The one who saves out doesnt get the round money. However if the save out losing round is after a win, then the losing bonus doesnt get reset but the upper limit reduces to 3000 $.
4. There are two conditions where the save out doesnt count. Firstly, if you, as CT, die in the c4 blast. Secondly, if you, as T, manage to escape but the c4 gets defused.
5. Always type your balance in the freezetime before buying so that the team-leader can call whether or not to go for an eco. Also you can avoid going for a full buy when your rest of the team is broke and are probably going for an eco.
6. Always try to make your opponents save-out although aiming at reducing the no to as low as possible. When you yourself are going for a save-out keep in mind the financial condition of your team and also the gun that you are saving is really worth saving in the given situation.
7. If you have a balance of 10000 $ or above offer to buy guns fo your team-mates. Because of the fact that you can possess a max amount of 16000 $ consecutive wins wont be of much benefit. Rather buying guns for your team-mates would provide the scope of increasing the avg balance of the team.
8. If you are dropping guns for your team-mates, dont buy until you make sure that the person has no guns to drop, that you might prefer to play with. And always remember that ammo is non-tranferable.
