Pwned by chuck norris.
Yes, most of which have already been taken apart by various people in this thread and now again by Chuck (thanks, saves me typing :P). I chose to address more recent points raised in #33 and echoed by ShadowWatch.Originally Posted by CrossOnion
Adding to what Chuck has said:
IG dominates T1 against all races except eldar. T2 is more equal although SM is still dicey until they get bionics, chappy and hellfires. T3 I'd agree is IG's weakest, at least in the area of AV seeing as they can't get LR till T4. IG T4 on the other hand arguably rivals that of SM (e.g.kasrs are one of the few things aside from FP spam that can deal with AT spam).Originally Posted by Gabriel
Commie rush isn't really an all or nothing strategy (e.g. like no barracks scout rush). Most IG players will still build those commie attached squads (with the exception of some like Stefan who can manage quite well without them and tech faster instead) anyway, with the only difference being they'll engage the enemy after getting GL.Originally Posted by Gabriel
Even if the rush fails, theres still a good chance of recovery thanks to IG econ and 20 req reinforce cost (providing player didn't allow squads to be wiped out or get all the commies killed). Indeed the damage inflicted on the other side alone (e.g. troops, LPs, banners, etc) should be enough to ensure that IG remains ahead.
^^exactly, it's not a huge investment as he made it out to be to commie rush, and if they fail they can go to T2 quite nicely. And in the "failed rush" they will most definitly inflict more damage then they cost to the opponent.
Chaos can PS raptors or CL PP if they want...they are better off than SM vs it. But the cultist Grenade thing is laughable... they would be torn apart by the commies.
Eldar can hold against it, but then what can Eldar not hold against?
Ork's building gun prevent rushes from most races anyways.
IG can get commies, or bunker...not too hard
Sorry I would go in-depth but I don't know as much about Ork and Eldar as I do Chaos and SM...but I think you all get the picture without my help anyways.
The ork building guns DO NOT save you from commie rush, they save you form base anahilation. The IG can effectively pin the orks into their base and gain all map contol, and rape the occasional LP. Meanwhile, the IG way outtechs the ork and wins in the end. Same happens in IG mirror if one IG doesnt rush.
True, still allows Orks to survive a little longer than other races. That said, smart IG player would use GL from afar or CS to tear down the paper Ork buildings. IG seem to have best anti-building T1Originally Posted by ImmortalChaos
Ok ork guns only reach out to like 1 or 2 SPs, so you just let the IG have the rest of the map eh?
Also 4 minutes on MoM? Thats insane, I get a commi rush down by 1:30ish on that map... you are far too slow my friend.
Also not how the original poster says a "Skilled" SM player? Meaning MORE skilled than the IG player and by a lot. I see really crap IG players floating at fairly high auto ranks. Also the best of the IG players agree that IG tier 2 is at least on par with SM tier 2 and I rather agree with them then people who complain about OB in 1v1s...
All or nothing??? 2-3 IG squads max is all you need and thats what you get NORMALLY... it changes nothing in terms of what your build is, you can either just use those three squads to cap and not reinforce them or you can attack... but you gonna get 3 squads minimum anyways... CS is a must, commies scale into tier 2 so what is it about the commi rush thats all or nothing?
A scout rush is all or nothing, GL/PP rush is all or nothing, commi rush is just a normal build...
I find it funny how the majority of people who seem extemely offended by this thread are mainly space marine players.
I agree that commie rushing hits SM hardest but I believe that is best solved with a sm tier 1 buff as opposed to an IG tier 1 nerf.
Also, SM Joe I usually get the commie rush into pople's base around 2 and half minutes. Bur that'ss just as they get there. I cant see how you get a commie rush into your opponents base in 1 min 30. It's impossible.
And you should deffinately be able to get an armoury down as chaos or SM before the commie rush stops you. If it's the very next thing you build after a barracks then you should have no problem as it will be down in less than 1 and half mins. And a couple of squads of cultists with nades and ACs with plasma and a Chaos lord will definately beat a CS and 2 commi squads.
The commie rush is way imba. It beat everyside except maybe I.G,orks and won't work against a good eldar if the player knows what they are doing. But if your against orks or I.G you just need to stop them coming out their base and gain map control and imba grenade lauchers will help aswell they kill orks quick. Tech to sents then you have won.
The only counter you can do against commie rush is heavy bolter turret, sell hq upgrade all your posts and mass tacts and thats extreme and risky tactic to do, you shouldn't have to do something extreme to stop a simple rush.
I believe that 1 commie per tier would fix this. Oh, and yes it is. Ithankyou.
I find it funny how the majority of people who seem extemely offended by this thread are mainly space marine players.
Maybe because it's very annoying to have nooby IG players beat you in auto and think they are good. Of course the race that has the hardest time defending against a strat is going to be offended by someone saying its not imba when it clearly is.
I agree that commie rushing hits SM hardest but I believe that is best solved with a sm tier 1 buff as opposed to an IG tier 1 nerf.
Well SM do need a slight tier 1 buff, but IG need a T1 nerf as well...having a cheap, morale immune, health regenerating squad that scales to T2 isn't going to balanced by giving tacts a few more DPS.
Also, SM Joe I usually get the commie rush into pople's base around 2 and half minutes. Bur that'ss just as they get there. I cant see how you get a commie rush into your opponents base in 1 min 30. It's impossible.
Watch replays of top players, you'd be amazed what is possible.
And you should deffinately be able to get an armoury down as chaos or SM before the commie rush stops you. If it's the very next thing you build after a barracks then you should have no problem as it will be down in less than 1 and half mins. And a couple of squads of cultists with nades and ACs with plasma and a Chaos lord will definately beat a CS and 2 commi squads
Again I really want to see a replay of two equally skilled players, 1 SM 1 IG play and the SM win. To get this armory would definetly stop a SM player from getting "Mass Tacts" which is the strat you said can beat IG...
And even if you do get the armory up, ASM will help vs IG no doubt, but won't win it for you unless you mass a lot. Which goes back to my old point of cost effectiveness...those commies/CS are nasty in CC and will hurt the SM far more than they hurt the IG's 20 req troops.
Chaos lord will get eaten alive by a CS, not to mention the fire support from commie squads will help a lot. They cultist with plasma and grenades is a nice idea. But if you have PP+CS+nades+AC...chances are they not only have commied squads but also CS and maybe Grenades which put the cultist to shame... Plasma isn't all that effective against IG anyways, and will no doubt slow your tech which can be a death sentence.
BTW about the ork's guns. True if you have to fall back that far(most likely) you've lost map control, and your pretty much done because those ork buildings won't last long and by giving up map control to use the guns, your enemy gets yet another advantage... My point was ork have a slightly better chance of fending off initial commie rush, but by no means are going to win in the long run vs IG.

I am no SM player; commie rush is imba. so, now you got an ork players fiew (i play IG aswell)
OK I'm going to go commie rush ten people in auto now and show you the results. I wont just post one replay either I'll commie rush ten times on automatch and post the replays.
If you rush FTW, do you really enjoy this game?
Of course, you're SUPPOSED to rush.Originally Posted by freak_storm
And yep, commie rush is all sorts of imba.
I managed to beat stefan once or twice when we tested massive commie guard rushes on blood river... With an extremely specialized build involving 1 scout squad, 3 SM squads, an early armory for flamers on 2 SM squads, deleting the barracks and overwatching the marines... Ofcourse this build loses big time if the IG decides to actually cap his own points before rushing... If he rushes without capping his points and the SM doesn't do something like this it's over though...
IG vs SM is almost as sad to watch as Eldar vs IG. IG vs orks isn't all that fun either... Chaos can hold out decently against IG, if they reach tier 1.5 without being too far behind the IG they actually might have an upper hand.
SM vs IG boils down to a few points of IG advantage.
Scouts sucks total ass against guardsmen because of their 120 armor.
FC is near worthless since you need a SM squad around to attach him to in this matchup, you wont have both SM and FC out in time to face the rush and whichever you go for first is likely to be dead when the other comes out.
Commisar Healing + hit and run tactics = whittled down SM.
Command Squad building damage = ahahaha no econ SM.
Command Squad speed = ahahaha scouts are dead. No more capping units for yoo.
Commie rushing is ridiculously imba against SM, it's merely imba against orks and chaos and eldar can handle it.
Main combat unit from HQ against the race that is slowest at getting a unit able to fight them = gg no re ktnxbye.
Non mihi,
non tibi,
sed nobis.
And what if you dont ahve the required skill to demonstrate the imba?OK I'm going to go commie rush ten people in auto now and show you the results. I wont just post one replay either I'll commie rush ten times on automatch and post the replays.
If you do this, please, post the replays so we can see if you are worth your salt.

There is replays of commi rushes. Notice last game, rush came at 1:10 and in ALL these games the SM was always in the last position that was scouted.
By the time IG had 2 full squads + commi + CS in my base I could only build one tac squad. Nice eh?
Please if you wanna say how easy it is to counter it we can set up some games where you use your uber SM that is better than all the other SM players. No accuracy loss on the move meant my marines couldn t get away and with CS + priest the CS runs faster and will make sure my marines will never be able to escape.
Impossible... so that must make me like UBER with IG and my friend oh_rly is super UBAR I guess... Even though IG is my second worst race only after the eldar(in terms of my micro).
What are you talking about? I thought commie rushing required no skill whatsoever?And what if you dont ahve the required skill to demonstrate the imba?
It requires minimal skill, now go watch the replays and try to prove your point. Skill level differences can be huge in this game. Most times when IG complains about imbalance its 80% of the times because they are just being outplayed and 20% of the times cause its eldar.
Obviously it requires SOME knowledge of the game and how the rush works and what your opponent can do in the same timeframe. I have played several people at WA when I started playing ladder who couldn't commie rush their way out of a wet paper bag but that was because they'd simply coppied the build order but didn't understand how to use the units properly.
Chriss is that IG hater he wanted them to nerf everything about igs
commierushing takes no effort at all against someone your own skill level. But if you really suck it's harder to pull off. It's kinda like guardianteching in DoW though, the higher the level of the eldar player the more the opponent needs to outplay him to stand a chance.
commierush pretty much requires that you atleast move any squad that gets CCed so that they'll keep firing at full accuracy instead of getting tied up in CC. Heck I have to struggle like hell against BAD commierushes from IG players in the 1500ish range... Including a certain eldar player who went IG at SEC and managed to cheese his way to a 3rd place. He almost beat me with his IG while making pretty much all the mistakes he could do, meanwhile he can't beat me with his eldar, ever...
I detect bitterness Santi. ^^
At the moment my win ratio against IG is terrible with my orks... IG players in the 1300-1400 bracket win against me about 50% of the time with commie rushes and I havn't won against a single commie rush from a player over 1500. I have beaten a single 1500+ IG player ONCE and a 1600+ IG player ONCE but that was because they did completely the wrong build against me and even then it was a hard fight into late tier 2. I am almost positive if they had just commie rushed I would have lost those games.
The Commisar/Guard/CS rush is imbalenced in both a time perspective and a cost perspective. Commisar guardsmen will destroy marines for cost (despite some extra initial investment with commisars) and will be in larger numbers sooner.
The rush is "counterable" with some specific builds for some races on some maps (but not all). In this situation, the word counterable means that it puts you on even ground with the IG player (but does net you an advantage). However, every other build will put you at a significant disadvantage. As a result, it is virtually a no brainer to go for a commisar rush build becuase at the very worst you'll be on even ground, and at the very best you will have a huge advantage.
Its a myth that IG is weak beyond rushing. Their T1 teching is great and their T2 is extremely strong (overpowered even) because of guardsmen armor and basilisk in particular. Their T1 being so powerful makes their T2 all the more powerful.
Yes... regarding the ability of the player to exploit the IMBA... just because a player needs to have some skill does not make the tactic less than IMBA. A build or tactic is IMBA when the cost and skill to counter it greatly exceed what a normal player can accomplish.
Just as an example... I have about 2000 games on me, mostly IG and Chaos, and when I decided to learn the commie rush a while ago, I got soundly whipped by it 10 for 10 times. When I tried to emulate it vs. another player... it took about 2 tries to get it right, and with that I am now uber IG tier 1 when I feel like it. Someone with minimal understanding of danceing and capping-strats will pick this up in no time and be just as good as me (with all my pre-history). SMJ's friend Technique is a perfect example - hes got less than a quarter of the number of games than I do and can whoop my ass with commie rushes all day long.
1v1? I find that getting a bassy (in 3v3+ games) out in tier 2 is fun, but easily countered if the enemy has chaos or IG.... and can be a net liability if not handled properly.Its a myth that IG is weak beyond rushing. Their T1 teching is great and their T2 is extremely strong (overpowered even) because of guardsmen armor and basilisk in particular. Their T1 being so powerful makes their T2 all the more powerful.
Ra Owa : AAHHHH!!!! ITS A ROCK!
Troubleshooter : Wha... oh... Pfffttt... Prove it. :}
Ra Owa : ... [sputtering] ... o.O ... Its SCIENCE!
Commie rush isn't an instant win, and if they are noobs(not too uncommon) who don't know how to play, just a build order, than SM can dance them somewhat and maybe even lead them into a few traps...but if they know what they are doing Commie rushing can take you very far in auto and it requires much less skill to get in the 1500's as IG than it does to with SM.
I think we are all in agreement except Gabriel... I really want to see those replays.
If you want to see IG being the pwnage, watch anything stephan does. He uses the brokenness of IG to the max. But at least he also wants to nerf IG to hell with a big nerf stick.
Nothing against Stephan btw.
Stefan's sort of famous for not using IG brokenness. Never seen him commie rush in any replay I've watched.
Let's Play Europa Universalis 3: Divine Wind
Let's Play Master of Magic: Abandoned
In the beginning there was nothing. Then Steam crashed.
He does 'abuse' every now and again but he only does it so he can post the replays to show the brokeness. Every now and again there is a lull in the community, people over at Sanc were saying how maybe IG isn't so imbalance, tier 2 is pretty weak etc. etc. so he posted a set of replays which just reminded everyone of the bullshit IG have available to them.
There's actually a timeline of Stefan abuse and it goes something like...
The Beginning - Chooses IG because as a Canadian he's naturally drawn to blandness
The Early Days - pwns his way up the ladder when the various IG issues are as yet unknown.
The Reckoning - Discovers the commical 9 dps guardsmen bayonets have to buildings in the now infamous game vs Fear. After this the cult of IG hatred begins to grow with Stefan as a target as well.
The Road to Redemption - Okay this has to be the most brilliant and successful PR campaign in the history of DoW. Stefan deletes his account and reclimbs the ladder without the use of Commisars. Thus he creates for himself the image of 'the Good IG', and cements his image as a non-abuser.
The Great Balancing (the current phase) - Stefan realizes that the issues of IG extend far beyond commisars and begins to use IG to it's full potential not only to explore various balance issues but to demonstrate to everyone that IG is in fact not okay by any stretch of the imagination. He stays largerly seculded in his icy lair concocting various balance schemes only emerging to occasionally pwn people on the forums and to show people that with 1.41 IG what should be going through your head when playing as them or playing against them is 'Why Bother?'
So to conclude this thread ... and save relic the time of reading through it all ... we can all agree that commie rushing is perfectly fine and in no way IMBA.
I randomed SM yesterday on Quest's Triumph against someone who I didn't know the race of... Got commierushed, it's fun with no place to run to, having better econ but no way in hell of getting enough troops out to counter full CS + 3x guardsmen squads with commies.
Ignore Gabriels rantings, problem solved(still waiting for those 10 replays).
I made 9 replays now. Just one more to go
No, we can conclude stefan, the top ig player and verymuchso > you in terms of understanding the game, and knowledge of the rushes limitations at the moment is correct. Relic need only to read his post. Thread closed, end of story.
You Lose, Good day Sir!
Not really because I was trolling all along. I know the commie rush is IMBA, I was just winding everyone up. BWAAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAAA
Or you are simply using that excuse because you have just been on the recieving end of the commie rush and realise it is imba and all your arguement was all for nothing.
Or of course you WERE trolling.
I'll go for Pokey's first reasoning, since no troll ever admitted that they were trolls. Ever.
I am NOT crossOnion
Originally From MooFreakyJust because a n00b can't pick up the army and use it does not make it weak!!
I m a troll, I got like 3000 posts lol! Take that
These hands never stop :comp:
Yep... He probably JUST found out it was imba and trying to cover his tracks, kind of sad.
hmmm, I guess you'll never know for certain! Was I trolling or have I just been instantly enlightened into IG IMBA in tier 1?
In whichever case, we will probably never take any of your post seriously again. Ever.
I ask for mods to lock this thread.
Oh I'm SURE that question will haunt us all until the end of our days...
Gabriel considering you even WASTED your time to argue your point so strongly over numerous amount of posts it is quite blatanltly obvious that either:
[A] You have far more time on your hands even more so than myself.
[B] you more than obviously found out the sheer imbalance of IG tier 1
OR both simply . Take also into consideration over a multiple amount of days in how strongly you argued for your point and then suddenly a few pros come in and blow it all down the drain and then you come up with an excuse for been proven wrong.
*sigh* Lock.
Foresight slow ^_^
Those who walk through the shadows, seek not the light.
If you disagree with a moderational decision, follow this.
The most pointless thread I ever read.
From a retrospective point of view, I agree.
Gabriel, I'm watching you. This is your chance to stop trolling.

Forums >Health and Nutrition>Desperate for help with blisters!
Last weekend, I ran 15 terrific miles and when I was finished, I noticed that some blisters had developed on the insides of my big toes (between the big toe and the next toe over). I drained them, patched them up, and ran 5 miles on Monday only for them to get a lot worse. I consulted my running friends who reccommended a few things. I decided to try one and ran 5.5 miles on Tuesday only to have a blister the size of a marble on one of my toes. I decided to skip Thursday's run and went to the drug store instead where I bought tons of stuff including moleskin, sports tape, and various blister bandages and some friction reducer. This morning, both blisters were fully drained and I was walking without pain. My scheduled run was 16 miles and I patched up my toes and went for it. I finished the run feeling pretty good but when I took off my shoes, it was a mess!
The blister on my left toe was so huge that it actually had pushed back the bandage and sports tape. The one on the right toe wasn't much smaller. I have a photo but I can't seem to upload it. Anyway, I drained them as best I could, slobbed some antibacterial ointment on them, and wrapped them with some sterile gauze. They are in an awkward spot, being between my toes about where the nail is.
Obviously I won't be running for a few days but I am trying to train for my first marathon and am desperate to find a way to conquer this! I am open to any and all advice. This is a step-back week for me so I can afford to take it easy and I obviously don't want any serious complications to arise from this. But I really don't want blisters to derail my marathon hopes.

Hawt and sexy
I'm touching your pants.
I've read about the socks in other forums. Have they worked for you?
I plan to go to my local running store tomorrow with my current pair of shoes and see what they suggested. Someone at my church suggested an ingrown toenail that only acts up when I run longer than half marathon distance. Is that really a possibility?
Needless to say, I won't be running this week.
PS - How did you get the picture to post?
Do you know why you are suddenly getting blisters? Have you changed shoes or socks? Part of dealing with them is going to be dealing with the cause so you aren't blistered all the time.
"Don't feel like running today...suck it up and run ...you're an athlete." (John Stanton, founder & owner of The Running Room)
"The person who starts the race is not the same person who finishes the race."
Inside of your toes sounds like they are being pushed together too much. maybe your shoes are too small - either length-wise or width-wise. Some shoes are a lot wider than others in the toe area... you need to try lots of different ones that feel good,
Thank you for the replies. I went to my doctor and one blister had a minor infection. I'm on an antibiotic for it and will be missing two scheduled races. (Including a Thanksgiving Day half marathon which pains me to pass on.)
My plan to see a podiatrist regarding my nails (which have had a fungus for 2 years anyway) and be re-fitted for running shoes at the local running shop. I've worn this make/model of shoe for the last few years and this is the first time I've had serious problems. I've also used the same socks for the last 3 years with no issues. So all I can think is that it's the recent increase in mileage beyon 13 miles.
I know that I might need to forfeit my marathon plans. It will depend on how quickly these blisters heal and I can solve the underlying problem. Any further feedback is appreciated.
Look at alternative methods of lacing if the width of the shoe is a problem.
Use copious amounts of vaseline between your toes and on the outside of the socks.
Give it time. Your skin will harden and adapt. Stick at it kid.
I wonder this, too...which would explain why you're not having issues at shorter mileage. As you run longer your feet swell more. Do your shoes come in widths? Perhaps a wider size would eliminate your issues, but keep you in the same shoe model that you like.
When I get blisters it is the same place you do ... on my big toes where they rub against the second toe. I don't bother draining them at all, I just keep running. The skin there is so hardened that it's really just a minor inconvenience for me. They drain themselves and then I just cut off the skin. Very little discomfort for me. For long runs or races I put on moleskin which sticks much, much better than bandaids and lasts the entire race. If you run enough you will get to where you don't get so many blisters and the ones you do get will be pretty much non-issues.
I have pretty wide forefoot so I think most traditional shoes push my toes together. I bought a pair of Altra Instinct shoes and really they fit my forefoot like a glove and they do seem to help with this pushing of the toes together. You may want to try a pair but the caveat is that they are minimalistic shoes with ZERO heel-to-toe drop. Your calves/hamstrings may not like that if you're not used to racing flats.
I recently got four blisters when I laced my shoes too loose because of a minor tendinitis on the tops of my feet. I knew I'd get blisters, but figured that tendinitis would be worse.
If your shoes fit well, except for being too tight in the toe area, another option is to make more room using a knife:
I agree with pr100, zoom-zoom, and kencamet. My blister strategy is drain it after you first notice it. If it repeats a second day, cut a hole in it and let it drain and air out. I don't seal up my blisters as that seems to make things worse. When you have an open and painful blister remanent you might have to take a day or two off but I've never had a problem after I cut it off.
I am guessing the root cause of your blisters has to do with your shoes.

Chernobyl reactors 1-3 |

Chernobyl reactors 1-3Even Wikipedia is afraid to have an article about it, don't try to find and read it there ;) |
Feb3-13, 03:37 PM | #36 |
The ratio of cesium (134/137) in Chernobyl 0.65 - 0.7 In Fukushima 0.85- 0.9 In this math is important initial figure. And she is very large. As you can see in 2007 the level of gamma roof Shelter still great. 3 hours and dialed dose The radiation level in the "Central Hall" is 12 Sv, in some other places, there is a residual fuel 0.1 - 6 Sv |
Feb3-13, 04:33 PM | #37 |
Feb3-13, 06:09 PM | #38 |
Where can I find detailed info about MOX fuel in relation to Fukushima? |
Feb3-13, 10:11 PM | #39 |
Feb4-13, 01:56 AM | #40 |
Moreover, there are large differences in the size of the physical size of the particles of cesium. In Fukushima plume they are minimal (removal in pairs). They are more mobile and quickly washed away by rain into the sea. In general, 15 years later, the situation with radiation in Fukushima exclusion zone will be much better than in Chernobyl. |
Feb4-13, 03:30 AM | #41 |
Feb4-13, 04:36 AM | #42 |
You asked me why I think Chernobyl needed to be cleaned up by about year 2000. I explained to you that in my opinion the first 10 years could be reasonably used to "wait out" shorter-lived contaminants, and gave you an example of such contaminant, Cs-134, which is (a) volatile and thus a lot of it escaped, (b) abundant, and (c) half-life 2 years. Why do you jump to Fukushima topic now? Why do you bicker about exact Cs-137/134 ratio? It *isn't essential* to my argument whether it was 1:1 or 1:0.6, 1:0.6 still results in very significant gamma contribution from Cs-134! |
Feb4-13, 04:48 AM | #43 |
Measurements show that by now, all leaked contamination has been diluted far below the natural radioactivity level of seawater (10-15 Bq/l depending of the salinity), most of which comes from Potassium-40. Japanese were lucky. Most of the time, wind was blowing Fukushima's gases and steam out to the ocean. |
Feb5-13, 05:54 PM | #44 |
Maybe I was a little boring, do not get angry.:) However, they did start the second phase of the elimination in 2000, But this is not the reduction of radiation levels. |
Feb5-13, 07:02 PM | #45 |
I read that this radiation is not at high enough levels to be considered a health risk. |
Feb6-13, 04:35 AM | #46 |
In one gram of Cs-137 there are about 4400 billions of billions (4.4*10^21) of atoms. That's a HUGE number. Evenly distributed over surface of Earth, it is about 8.5 million atoms per every square meter. Fukushima released way more than one gram of Cs-137. I bet you wanted to ask a different question :) Exactly. In US, Fukushima's contamination is WAY below levels of any detectable effect on health. It is useful to remember a few numbers when you want to make sense of contamination levels. Seawater's radioactivity is 10-15 Bq/L. Human body, on average, contains 4000 Bq of K-40 radioactivity (that is, ~50 Bq/kg). And 1200 Bq of C-14. There is an edible nut (some "Brazil nut") which has 444 Bq/kg. It is probably the upper end of what can be considered "natural levels of radioactivity in food". Useful when you read about e.g. the rules Japan now establishes for allowable activity in their food. (Anyone knows what's an average natural soil radiation in Bq/m^2, and what is the typical variability depending on soil type?) |
Feb6-13, 04:25 PM | #47 |
Currently, what are the radiation readings at the Fukushima plant itself? Especially outside the shattered reactor buildings. Is it much higher than the Chernobyl exclusion zone?

how do i handle the stress of my Grandpa's passing he has been in the hospital for a few weeks now and he passed yesterday my blood pressure is already high and now i have this headache that wont leave and sick to my tummy. any ideas
I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my father when I was pregnant with my three year old and I just kept telling myself that my father was no longer in pain and had no more suffering and that I know that he lived a good life. I was also comforted knowing that my unborn daughter had a special angel protecting her.
I'm so sorry. I say grieve as you need to. It's very stressful. Take a hot bath, if your a wine drinker have a small glass. If it gets too bad, call your OB and ask for something. Hugs.
My mother in law just passed away last week, and I was taking care of her. It was terrible I cried and cried every night and didn't sleep for almost a week while she was struggling. I lost weight and felt miserable, but baby is fine.
Everyday is hard. I still cry constantly and my kids ask about her all the time and it's so hard. I feel like I can't get over it but I need to be strong for them because they miss her so much and it's the holidays which were her favorite season and she was the life of the family festivities.
I just remember that she loved us all so much and after all the pain she was in she's in a better place now and watching over us and even though she won't physically get to hold this new baby she loved him so much just knowing he would exist.
I talked to my OB about all the stress and she said that it's okay I just need to make sure I eat and drink regularly and try to sleep, she gave me a script for something to help me sleep but I found that Benedryl has been working perfectly for the rough nights I've had.
Take time and grieve don't try to hold it all in.. that's what causes the high blood pressure. It's okay to be sad! I'm sad at least 50% of the day lately.. and then he moves and I smile and forget about crying for a few mins, or my boys do something silly and I'm reminded of the wonderful life that my MIL helped shape and I'm grateful for the short time I did get to expirence her. She was only 50 years old but she left a wealth of memories and shaped my husband and his sisters into such a warm supporting family that I'm grateful to be a part of.
I am sorry for both of your losses. I like what Andrea said, don't try to hold everything in. That will raise your BP for sure and make you more sick.
I am so sorry to the both of you.I lost my mom in 2004 and my grandma in 2011. The first year was the hardest. All of the first holidays were the worst for me.I still cry from time to time over them. The wound heals but the scar remains. I hope you both can find peace in it and enjoy your holidays to the best you can. After all that is probably what they would have wanted for you. They will always be with you in your hearts and in spirit.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "2006 Lafite Rothschild is a great, great wine made from a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot. When I tasted it from barrel, it reminded me of their successful 1988, but it is dramatically superior to that vintage. Frankly, it may turn out to be as good as the 2005,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "There are only 14,000 cases (only 48% of the crop made it into the grand vin) of the 2000, which flirts with perfection. Truly great stuff, it reveals perfect equilibrium, great finesse, yet colossal size, with a thickness and density that rival the brilliant 1996. This saturated black ruby/purple..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 1986 possesses outstanding richness, a deep color, medium body, a graceful, harmonious texture, and superb length. The penetrating fragrance of cedar, chestnuts, minerals, and rich fruit is a hallmark of this wine. Powerful, dense, rich, and tannic, as well as medium to full-bodied, with..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "With its distinctive antique bottle and gold etched label dominated by a sheep, this is definitely a move away from classic Bordeaux bottling. It is good that the wine can support the presentation. The fruit is so ripe, it almost tastes of raisins, but that sweetness is finely balanced by the dry..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19% Merlot, this wine represents only 34% of Lafite's total harvest.

The Transportation Security Administration announced this week that it will allow passengers to carry certain types of knives and a variety of sports equipment on U.S. airline flights.
The TSA said it established a committee to review the prohibited items list based on an overall risk-based security approach. After the review, TSA Administrator John S. Pistole made the decision to start allowing certain items back into carry-on luggage.
Banned because of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the TSA said the change in the prohibited items policy will be effective on April 25, 2013.
The knives that will be allowed in carry-on luggage must be no more than 2.36 inches, or 6 cm, from the tip of the blade to the hilt and the blade must be no more than 1/2 inch in width. The knife can't have have a molded grip of have locking or fixed blades. Razors and box cutters are still prohibited.
Toy bats, billiard cues, ski poles, hockey sticks, lacrosse sticks and two golf clubs will also be permitted in carry-on luggage.
Full-size baseball, softball and cricket bats are still prohibited.
A statement released by the TSA said that these changes are to align more closely with International Civil Aviation Organization standards and is TSA's layered approach to security.
"This is part of an overall Risk-Based Security approach, which allows Transportation Security Officers to better focus their efforts on finding higher threat items such as explosives," said a statement released by TSA.
Not everyone is happy about the future change. In a statement released by the Association of Flight Attendants that blasted the TSA for its decision, the Flight Attendance Union Coalition called the change a "poor and shortsighted decision by the TSA."
The statements said that the changes will put the flight attendants and passengers in even more danger.
"Flight Attendants are the front line safety and security professionals on board every commercial passenger aircraft in this country and must be given the tools and training to protect ourselves, our passengers and the aircraft. Despite repeated requests for updated training to include basic self-defense maneuvers to allow us to defend ourselves, Flight Attendants still do not receive mandatory training about how to effectively recognize and defend others against attacks aboard the aircraft," the statement said.

Ohio is famous for its firsts, from the historic to the delicious. It was the site of the world's first successful airplane flight by native sons Orville and Wilbur Wright as well as home of the first incandescent light bulb, invented by Thomas Edison. It's also where the first major league pro-baseball team was organized (the Cincinnati Reds, in 1866). As for the delicious...Ohio is the birthplace of hotdogs (1904), Life Savers candy (1912) and the banana split (1904). If Ohio sounds interesting so far, keep reading. The Buckeye State has a lot to offer.
What to Expect
As one of the nation's industrial leaders, Ohio ranks third in the U.S. for manufacturing employment. This is in spite of massive industrial decline since the 1960s, which has made Ohio the center of the "Rust Belt." However, the state continues to be a leader in the production of transportation equipment, metals and machinery. The state's economy is also helped by products from the land, including lime, clay, salt and agriculture. Extensive farmland produces corn, soybeans, hay, wheat, cattle, hogs and dairy products.
Ohioans are proud of their historical heritage, and the state makes it a priority to preserve and honor its landmarks and attractions. From sacred Native American grounds to Civil War sites to Ohio's second-to-none aviation legacy, there is plenty here to appreciate. Those who like to explore the great outdoors won't have to look far. Ohio offers hiking, hunting, fishing, bird watching, water sports and other recreational activities.
And what are you likely to find in terms of cost when looking for apartments in the state? Ohio's overall cost of living is about 5.5% below the national average, with housing—including apartments for rent—among the best benefits at 15% below average.
Where to Explore
Before being settled by early Americans, much of Ohio's land was covered with virgin forest.a vision that is hard to imagine today. From Lake Erie to the Ohio River (which gave the state its name), Ohio's landscape is mostly flat, with a few areas of hills. Columbus is the capital and largest city, while Cleveland is the state's largest metropolitan area, and Cleveland is an attractive option when looking for apartments in the state as well.
Columbus Apartments Ohio's largest city, Columbus is home to more than 725,000 people and is a transportation, industrial and trade center for the region and the entire state. City and state government, as well as the city's numerous research and educational centers, are major employers. Residents enjoy the city's professional hockey team (the Blue Jackets), racetracks, museums and a nice variety of cultural events. The overall cost of living is 3% below the national average, with prices for apartments hitting the national average. Expect to pay about $450 for studio apartments, $550-700 for one-bedroom apartments, $650-850 for two-bedroom apartments, and $900 and up for three-bedroom apartment rentals.
Cleveland Apartments Cleveland's nickname The New American City reflects the city's recent renaissance and commitment to improving itself. The second-largest city in Ohio, Cleveland is a major manufacturing and commercial center.

Richie Supa Wins Award For Best "Music Or Music Video" At 15TH Annual Prism Awards
Legendary singer/songwriter's "Last House on the Block" recognized for its impact in helping to shed a light on substance abuse and mental health issues
FT. LAUDERDALE, FL (April 29, 2011) – Legendary singer/songwriter and South Florida resident Richie Supa won the award for best song in the category of "Music or Music Video" at the 2011 PRISM Awards on April 28, 2011 in Beverly Hills, California.
Supa won for his song, "Last House on the Block." He was not on hand to accept the award, so his longtime friend and colleague, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, accepted on his behalf. Supa has been a behind-the-scenes voice in the legendary rock band Aerosmith for years, including being a touring member. He co-wrote several of their number one rock hits including "Chip Away The Stone," "Lightning Strikes," "Pink" and "Amazing." He previously won a PRISM Award for "Best Song" in 2009 for "In the Rooms."
"God had control of the pencil on this one" said Supa. "This was an incredibly personal piece for me to produce. It is an honor to be recognized by the PRISM Awards for doing what I love – writing and performing music that not only touches people, but hopefully aides those in whatever struggles life may bring."
The PRISM Awards, which are produced by the Entertainment Industries Council, Inc. (EIC) in collaboration with the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and FX, honor actors, movies, music, media and television's top shows that accurately depict and bring attention to substance abuse and mental health issues, including prevention, treatment and recovery.
Honorees are selected by an 80-person committee of entertainment industry professionals and technical experts from the fields of medicine, mental health, and addiction. In addition to the ceremony, a magazine format show will be telecast on flagship airing partner FX as well as National Geographic Channel, ReelzChannel, E! On Demand, and other networks, and will be featured at a special Capitol Hill Showcase in Washington, DC in September as a celebration of National Treatment and Recovery Month. Variety is a media partner for the PRISM Awards.

I'm looking for a way to have Spring bind a new entityManager in the EntityManagerHolder for methods marked @Transactional( propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW ) suspending the existing one if it exists. I'm also surprised that this isn't the default behavior. Let me explain why:
First my general setup: I'm using the OpenEntityManagerInViewFilter to make an entityManager available throughout a request. Controller methods that save changes are marked @Transactional( REQUIRED ). These methods cause the entityManager opened by the filter to by associated to the transaction, so that when the transaction commits, the entityManager is flushed, but stays around for the rest of the request. Everything is as expected.
Now comes the problem. I have an exception handler setup to log unexpected errors that occur in controller methods to the database. Here's it is:
The problem is that the @Transactional( REQUIRES_NEW ) doesn't cause a new entityManager to be created, but rather uses the entityManager opened by the filter just like @Transactional( REQUIRED ). Here's a use case when this fails to work properly:Code:@Transactional( propagation = Propagation.REQUIRES_NEW ) public void write( Throwable t, String externalId ) { SystemLog sl = new SystemLog(); sl.setExternalId( externalId ); sl.setSummary( t.getMessage() ); sl.setDetail( ExceptionUtils.getFullStackTrace( t ) ); sl.setTimestamp( new Date() ); systemLogDao.persist( sl ); }
1 - the controller method (REQUIRED) persists an invalid entity
2 - the commit causes a validation exception to be thrown, the transaction is rolled back.Code:@Transactional public String save() { Company co = companyModel.getCompany(); co.setCompanyName( " " ); // this value causes entity validation to fail on commit companyDao.merge( co ); return "saved"; }
3 - the exception handler is called because of this (REQUIRES_NEW), and persists an entity about the error.
4 - the exception handler's transaction commits, but since it's using the same entityManager, which still contains the invalid entity, it also causes a validation exception to be thrown, and is also rolled back!
It seems I really should be getting a new entityManager when propagation = REQUIRES_NEW! Is there some way to tell Spring to behave like this or some other way (preferably not a hack, I got that covered already!) to accomplish what I want?

Rock Music Menu's Top 10 albums of 2012
It was a weird year for music, mainly because there were so many acts that dropped the ball after much anticipation had built for a new release. The most glaring, of course, was Aerosmith. Following a couple tense years where it looked like they might finally call it a day, Boston's bad boys finally regrouped, got back with the producer of some of high points in its catalog and promised to return with a vengeance. Yeah, that didn't really happen. "Music from another Dimension!" was widely panned by critics and fans alike, and didn't deliver on so many levels.
British heroes Muse came up with a disjointed effort, "The 2nd Law," which, while having some good material was more miss than hit. Snow Patrol didn't fare much better. Its "Fallen Empires" barely registered when it was released.
That left the door open for newer artists to pick up the slack, and some older ones who really delivered. Here are some of the best that the year had to offer:
10. Jack White – "Blunderbuss"
Not that there was any doubt that Jack White was the main talent behind the White Stripes, but it's the turn he takes under his own name that has him truly showing off his repertoire, much more than he did within the confines of his old band — and that's saying a lot. The power is still here. Check the single "Sixteen Saltines" for proof. But there's also some rollicking piano and experimentation that while weird at certain junctures, never goes so far off the rails that it becomes inaccessible.
9. The Cult – "Choice of Weapon"
Second acts are hard enough to deliver successfully in the pantheon of hard rock, so it's surprising then that The Cult, now well into its third go-round, still gives audiences exactly what they crave. The brawny licks by guitarist Billy Duffy are all over the place on "Choice of Weapon," and he reaches deep into his grab bag of riffs to echo the classic "She Sells Sanctuary" on "The Wolf," then rains down elegance in "Life > Death" and floors it on the powerful "For the Animals." Frontman Ian Astbury is resplendent in all his shamanistic glory, singing about his "wild Indian heart" ("Honey from a Knife") and doing his best Strange Days–era Jim Morrison ("A Pale Horse"). This is the longest the band has had the same lineup, which adds to the overall tightness from start to finish
8. Cloud Nothings – "Attack on Memory"
With some of the forbearers of grunge making waves this year, it's not too shocking that a newer group would embrace the sound so tightly. Ohio's Cloud Nothings conjure up the best of Nirvana and Smashing Pumpkins, and aren't afraid to stretch out. Take the second track on "Attack on Memory," a nine-minute gem that pounds away relentlessly into a long, building breakdown that buzzes with bass before making another pass at bombast. The rest of the songs are less than half that length, neatly bowed salvos of punk that never neglect a melody.
7. Soundgarden – "King Animal" Continued...
Soundgarden has long been the most-likely grunge outfit to reunite. The only surprise is that it took this long for them to get it together. "King Animal" starts off inauspiciously enough with lead single "Been Away too Long" — for a band that made its mark with vague lyrical content, this one tries sledgehammer browbeating. Chris Cornell's caterwaul has been on the wane for years, and despite loads of studio magic, he still sounds a bit raspy for those hoping for a "Rusty Cage" redux some 16 years later. Thankfully, it wasn't just the voice that made Soundgarden shine in the first place. Guitarist Kim Thayil remains the star, doing his familiar sonic circles on tracks like "Non-State Actor" and the brilliant "Bones of Birds." It's a welcome return, and though it doesn't reinvent the wheel, it reminds us why these guys were considered the architects of the Seattle scene.
6. Japandroids – "Celebration Rock"
Do you want to know what the future of rock and roll sounds like? Look no further than Japandroids. Anthems like "Younger Us" and "The House that Heaven Built" are energetic blasts of freshness that people have been claiming has been missing from music for far too long. It's even more impressive when you find out that these Vancouver natives are a duo.
5. Local H – "Hallelujah! I'm a Bum"
Fans of Chicago's Local H may have been worried when frontman/guitarist/bassist Scott Lucas started a side project that showed his softer side, Scott Lucas and the Married Men. It was all for naught, as the pair, rounded out by drummer Brian St. Clair, deliver the hooks, the heaviness and the attitude that has long been the staple of hard rock's most enduring duo. If anything, they've expanded on what has worked so well in the past. "Another February" chugs along quietly before blasting off with explosive fury. The fact that its subject manner is simple — winter sucks, as does the life of the bedraggled narrator's, makes it even more resplendent.
4. The Walkmen – "Heaven"
Seven records in, The Walkmen remain one of rock's best kept secrets. Where there was once sort of an angry young man tint to the music, there is now much more laid back, almost Sinatra-like crooning from frontman Hamilton Leithhauser. The title track, "Song for Leigh," and "Love is Luck" each contain an element of breathability that makes them vast, but they still manage to sustain the intimacy that's long been part of The Walkmen sound. There's still an edge, and it's no lounge act by any stretch, but with maturity has come a record that will stand up among some of the greats.
3. Metric – "Synthetica"
Metric is without question one of the best indie-rock outfits in Canada. Here, on record No. 5, frontwoman Emily Haines goes from ethereal to rambunctious and everything in between, with funked out beats like those on "Youth Without Youth," and then crazy bouts of catchiness like on the epic sing-a-long, "Breathing Underwater." Metric has always had a dark side lurking just beneath the poppy surface. Here it's evident on the title track, where even an airy acoustic breakdown can't shake the feeling of discontent. "I can think for myself/I've got something no pill could ever kill," Haines seethes slowly and defiantly over a quick moving, fuzzed out guitar. Careful folks, this kitten's got claws.
2. Smashing Pumpkins – "Oceania" Continued...
Most gave up on Billy Corgan's vision of the Smashing Pumpkins years ago. It turned into the alternative version of Guns 'N Roses with an ego-driven frontman steering the ship. That's what makes "Oceania" such a surprise. It's filled with such intensity, brilliant lyricism and such passion that it really isn't a question anymore why the original band is no longer together — it's unlikely they could do something so amazing these days.
1. Van Halen – "A Different Kind of Truth"
Nearly 11 months after it dropped, it's still mind-blowing how good this record turned out. Who would've thought Eddie Van Halen would still be innovative in his late 50s? This time it's not as a guitar hero, but by leading a bunch of grizzled old men (and his 20-year-old son, Wolfgang, on bass) through what is the first comeback album in history by an iconic rock act that stands up against anything else on the shelves today. Many who were hoodwinked by the not-so-great first single "Tattoo" quickly changed their tune upon hearing the full length. This is the mighty Van Halen at its best. Edward fingers the frets at breakneck speed. The solo on "China Town" is his fastest since "Eruption," maybe ever. Everywhere else he plays with a scorching determination that will send axe-slinging wannabes back to lessons. David Lee Roth seems rejuvenated in the driver's seat for the first time in 28 years, never cheesy, performing head spinning linguistic gymnastics. The banshee scream may be age-tempered — the attitude isn't. Sure, half of the tracks are reworked demos from decades ago, but this is a classic Van Halen disc — why not mine the period that brought the original fire?
