- it command is install that installs packages from binary repository with all dependencies
- -c is the paramater that means component. It installs all packages from the component
Adding Contribution Repository
Firstly, add the contrib repository. Look here for instructions.
The installation of Xfce4 can be achieved through two methods. The first method involves using the graphical Pardus Linux Package Manager, whilst the second method uses the command line. If you are a new user it is recommended that you follow the first method.
Method One
Open up the Pardus Linux Package Manager and select all of the packages from the Xfce category. After you have selected all of the packages, press the install button. Pardus will now proceed to download all of the Xfce packages and their subsequent dependencies. After this process is complete, Xfce is not successfully installed.
Method Two
Open up a command line terminal (Konsole, Yakuake, Guake, etc.) and enter the following command;
sudo pisi it -c desktop.xfce.base -y
If you want to install all addons (panel plugins, Thunar extensions, etc.), you should also enter the following command:
sudo pisi it -c desktop.xfce.addon -y
Pardus will now proceed to download and install all of the Xfce4 packages and any subsequent dependencies. After this process has completed, Xfce4 will have been successfully installed.
Using GNOME Display Manager
You can start Xfce Session with KDM that is Pardus' default display manager. But if you use GDM instead of KDM, you can remove all KDE packages. First of all, install GDM package. It's in Contribution Repository. Then, open /etc/conf.d/xdm file with any editor as root and edit:
# Preferred display manager DISPLAY_MANAGER="gdm" # Cursor theme #XCURSOR_THEME=""
And last, restart Pardus.
The Xfce4 desktop is vary basic as a result it is recommended that a number of additional software packages be installed afterwards. The following are a selection of packages that cna further enhance the Xfce desktop.
- Pidgin or Gajim (IM Client)
- Quod Libet or Listen (Music Player)
- Gcolor2 (Color Chooser)
- Galculator (Calculator)
- Sylpheed or Thunderbird (Mail Reader)

A month and a half ago, after being destroyed at home by the Broncos for their third consectutive loss, this team seemed like a trainwreck. Many on this board were able to see what was wrong, but I think we have to give credit to Harbaugh et al for making the changes necessary: shuffle the OL, shuck the OC.
I think we also have to cite the Ray Lewis retirement announcement. People questioned the timing of that, but I think it gave everyone a greater sense of urgency and inspiration. This team is just plain tough.

Perched on top of a tree limb, Travers Smith and Robbie Paulsen, both 13, listened intently as the commander of the Huntley American Legion told about a soldier who was killed in Vietnam from an enemy mortar. "I thought it was a good speech," Paulsen said. "I liked the part about the guy who died in Vietnam." Post Commander George Lesch told how 20-year-old Danny Flynn died May 25, 1968, almost 100 years from the first Memorial Day (then called Declaration Day). Since Hynn's death, a Massachusetts' middle school annually writes letters of encouragement to Flynn's moth¬ er. The ceremony was a somber ending to a joyous parade from the town square, down Church Street, across Dean Street and over to the cemetery. Police Chief Randy Walters estimated a crowd of about 6(X)-plus filled the lawn across from the ceme¬ tery, making this possibly the largest turnout ever. Walters, a Vietnam veteran, said he was encouraged to see the strong showing of public support. "It's a time to remember how you fought for your country," he said. Bob Eckman,. former post commander and parade organiz¬ er, said this may be his lasL Kate GaUiett (left), 1998 Miss Huntley, makes her last official appear¬ ance with Krista Jurs, 1999 Miss Huntley, in her first official appearance at Monday's Huntley Memorial Day parade. "We're getting bigger every year," Eckman said, adding that no one seems to know how long the parade has been around. Eckman said he always looks forward to the firing squad por¬ tion of the ceremony, though there is usually some doubt about whether enough volun¬ teers will show up for a 21-gun salute. On Monday, eight volun¬ teers fired three volleys, or a 24- gun salute. Leading the parade. Village President James Dhamer waved to the crowd in a squad car, while the 36-member Huntley High School Marching Band played patriotic tunes at the rear. In between, more than a dozen civic and non-profit groups either marched or drove in vin¬ tage vehicles. Participants included the TLC Preschool and Kinder¬ garten, Boy Scout Troop 167, Brownie Troop 80, representa¬ tives of the 24 teams of Huntley Youth Baseball and a classic 1929 Mack truck loaded with members of the Huntley 4-H Club. This was the first public appearance for Krista Jurs as the 1999 Miss Huntley. "It's very exciting," she said. In some spots along the route, marchers almost outnumbered bystanders. But that was fine for the dozens of willing children racing to grab pieces of bubble gum and hard candy tossed their way. "It's fim, but sometimes it's dangerous," quipped Carl Drap- see Holiday-^iaee 2 Park District gears up for busy summer Steve Brosinski Press Publications The Huntley Park District staff expects huge interest in summer programs. Recreation Director Bet¬ sey Warrington said the dis¬ trict has taken in about an additional $30,000 in pro- -gram fees this year. "We've added more staff and maxed out of facility space. The schools have been cooperative, but they are running out of space too," Warrington said. School is out June 7 and the district is offering a wide range of summer programs for pre-school and school- age children. Popular 10-week camps include sports, cheerleading, baseball skills, soccer and a week-long all sports camp. About 85 children have already signed up. Pre-school camps are open for children ages 3-5; school-grade for youth in kindergarten to fifth grade; and middle school for those ages 6-8. Throughout the season, day care is available for non- pre-school campers from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. While recreation staff is gearing up for a busy camp¬ ing season, administrators "We've added more staff and maxed out of facility space. The schools have been cooperative, but they are running out of space too." Betsey Warrington Recreation director, Huntley Park District are planning on opening up two parks in subdivisions. In spring, a 12-acre park will be ready for activity at Southwind and a 6-acre park will be open at Winged Point. The Park District received both parcels through developers' land donation, in addition to funding to maintain the areas. Meanwhile, the district is still negotiating the purchase of the 42-acre Sun Valley Farm on Main Street. War¬ rington said the Illinois Department of Natural Resources has pledged a $400,000 matching grant for the purchase.

Helloooo Nurse
Personally if I ever saw a nurse come to my room looking like this I would think …. well I had a good run, no regrets, and I lived life to the fullest. Fortunately this is just another tattoo I made for a client, who is a nurse. She didn't just want a nurse's badge or a caduceus image, she wanted something different. She had always wanted something day of the dead as well. So we incorporated the two and this is how it came out. Cheers

A pipeline emergency on Dream Island Road has spurred frustration and created headaches for nearby residents.
At its May 4 regular meeting, the Longboat Key Town Commission transferred $100,000 from its utility contingency fund to pay for the replacement of 150 feet of 8-inch, clay- and cast-iron wastewater pipeline under Dream Island Road that needed immediate attention.
Town Engineer Anne Ross said that without immediate attention, the pipe could have caused road failure or wastewater overflow.
The original, decaying pipeline was a victim of being surrounded by groundwater 13 feet from the road's surface.
"The problem is that in that area near Dream Island Road, you dig a hole and bay water keeps coming up," Ross said. "It's a challenging project for any contractor."
The challenge has led to more than six weeks of work, which Ross said is wrapping up this week.
The work has frustrated nearby Key residents Gertrud Schellenberger and Kathy Simonds.
Schellenberger, a Key resident since 1970, lives right next to the vacant lot at 588 Dream Island Road, which town staff received permission to use as its staging area for the project.
But Schellenberger might be second guessing her decision to sell the vacant lot years ago.
"It's very noisy and my whole house has been shaking for weeks," said Schellenberger, who also expressed environmental concerns about a diesel oil drum on site that was used to replace the pipeline.
"It's been a huge inconvenience and it gets tiring," Schellenberger said.
Kathy Simonds, who lives on Dream Island Road, is also fed up with the noise.
"It was supposed to be a two-week project that's lasted more than six weeks," Simonds said.
A 6-foot-wide- and more-than-100-foot-long section of the road was torn up to replace the pipe. And, when a tree needed to be removed to start the project, the road was shut down completely for a four-hour stretch.
Residents in the area have also complained of milky white water in their nearby water inlet at times and will have to deal with one more week of noise. The site is undergoing restoration cleanup, which includes the relocation of cable and phone wires and the repaving of Dream Island Road.
"We know it's noisy and we apologize for the inconvenience to our residents," Ross said. "We tried to work with the neighbors the best we can."

Green vehicles are here to stay and the NY Auto Show is introducing new green cars at much lower prices. Lauren Fix, the Car Coach, has a closer look.
The price of gasoline is a continual concern and many drivers have considered purchasing a hybrid car. In the past, these vehicles may have been outside your budget. This year, however, the 2012 New York International Auto Show is offering new hybrid vehicles that may finally fit your price range.
Ford Fusion Hybrid – mid-sized sedanMPG: 41 city / 36 highwayPrice: $22,639
Toyota Prius C – compact carMPG: 53 city / 46 highwayPrice $18,950
Hyundai Sonata Hybrid – mid-sized sedanMPG: 36 city / 40 highwayPrice: $22,978
Honda Civic HybridMPG :44 city / 44 highwayPrice: $24,050
Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid - Sedan MPG: about 45 mpgPrice: mid $20,000
Kia Optima Hybrid – mid-sized sedanMPG: 35 city / 40 highwayPrice: $25,700
Diesel cars are green, too. Diesel-fueled engines have always been available in heavy-duty trucks, but manufacturers also offer them in a few compact and mid-size sedans, as well as some SUVs and hatchbacks. All modern diesel engines are turbocharged for increased power and very high fuel efficiency. Most diesel vehicles can go 6-700 miles on a tank of fuel. That's impressive.
Volkswagen Golf Diesel – compact MPG: 30 city / 42 highway Price: $24,235
Audi A3 Diesel – station wagonMPG: 30 city / 42 highway Price: $30,250
2013 Chevy Cruze diesel has been announced as well as the Mazda Skyactive diesel so look for more great choices in the future.
Whether you are in the market for all-electric plug-in, hybrid or diesel car, seek out government and business rebates to help lower the price before you sign on the dotted line.
Remember, when looking at a hybrid (or any car for that matter) test drive as many vehicles in the category as possible and do your homework to see what meets your family's needs.

Marchione called on New Yorkers to sign the petition, promising to personally deliver it to the governor and legislative leaders.

There has been an increase in the number of abandoned dogs in the Rochester area. The latest, a pit bull, was found dead in a dumpster in the town of Gates.
With an increase in abandoned dog cases, shelters throughout Monroe County say there are better options.
"We don't hold anyone accountable for bringing in an animal that they can't take care of anymore. It's better to bring it in and let us try to find it a new home then somebody just letting it loose," said Reno DiDomenico, Humane Society of Greater Rochester.
"It may be an economy issue or maybe it's just general education that people don't know that you can bring them to a shelter," DiDomenico said.
"It's illegal to abandon an animal at a public place so bring it to a shelter."
Abandoned dogs like Pierre, who was left in a garbage bag inside a Petco store in January, have become eligible for adoption. But the future for some of these dogs is bleak.
Minnie was found severely injured inside a crate along train tracks in Rochester. After she became aggressive, due to a likely history of dog fighting, the rescue shelter had to put her down.
If you can no longer take care of your pet, or find a stray or dead animal, you should contact animal control or a local shelter during the day. After hours, Gates Animal Control, along with the Humane Society, recommends calling 911.

Childhood Snoring: No Laughing Matter
By: Dr. Bruce Hensel, KNBC
Updated: October 30, 2012
Julia Del Rio, 13, was aware that she snored, but neither she nor her mom thought it was a big deal.
Claudia Del Rio says she thought her daughter's snoring was endearing.
"Especially when she was a baby, I used to listen to her snore and I thought that it was really cute," Del Rio said.
But researchers say frequent snoring can be a sign of a serious breathing disorder.
"When you have arousals from sleep it activates what we call the fight-or-flight reflex and that turns on your sympathetic nervous system," said Dr. Sally Davidson Ward, author of the study.
"Through that repetitive activation, we believe that impacts glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity."
And that can lead to weight gain, even diabetes.
"Your sleep is disrupted, that may change your metabolism so you can become more obese. It's definitely a vicious cycle that needs interruption," Ward explained. "Insulin is the hormone we use to put sugar in the cells so we can use it as a fuel. So if cells become insensitive to that, the blood sugar can rise, and you can develop diabetes."
Julia underwent tests at a sleep lab and doctors found that she had obstructive sleep apnea.
Her airway was being blocked, causing her to stop breathing throughout the night.
To treat her condition, doctors decided that Julia will need to get her tonsils removed.
Recent research also finds that lack of sleep can lead to behavioral and learning problems in children.
Dr. Ward said parents should pay attention to how their child is sleeping.
"Especially if it's loud, or more than 3 nights a week, they should discuss it with their pediatrician," she said.

Title: | Associate AD for Advancement |
Phone: | 334-3420 |
Email: | email@example.com |
Craig Fink enters his second year as the associate athletics director for advancement at UNCG. He is tasked with raising money for the UNCG athletic department through private contributions and oversees all of the department's fundraising activities.
Fink turned in a highly successful first year at UNCG as under his direction the Spartan Club exceeded its $300,000 annual scholarship fund goal for the 2012 fiscal year and set a new all-time record for the fund. The Spartan Club, the official fundraising organization for UNCG athletics posted the annual scholarship fund total of $307,479, a 20.7% increase over last year's total, increasing their efforts by over $50,000.
Fink comes to UNCG after five years at Eastern Michigan University, the last four of which were spent as the associate athletics director for development and executive director of the EMU Athletic Club. At EMU, Fink directed the athletic fundraising operation through the most successful four-year stretch in school history, breaking the record for single-year cash and gifts-in-kind two years in a row. He was also instrumental in helping secure the first $1 million gift commitment in EMU's athletic history – and at the time one of just 10 in university history – and another gift of more than $900,000. Fink also led fundraising efforts for several six-figure facility projects at EMU.
Prior to his work at EMU, Fink spent five years at the Brown University Sports Foundation. After four years there as the associate director, he was elevated to interim executive director and then senior associate director. Fink's work at Brown saw him personally soliciting gifts of five and six figures, as well as being part of the senior management team that put together a strategy to raise $125 million for athletics as part of the $1.4 billion Boldly Brown: Campaign for Academic Enrichment.
Before a brief stint as a sales manager at zUniversity, a university-branded affinity marketing company, Fink spent four years (1996-2000) working at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. He served in several roles there, the last of which was as manager of events and group programs, and developed strategies for and managed all marketing-driven special events, including Enshrinement Weekend. He was a public relations supervisor for the Hall in the early part of his tenure.
Fink got his start in collegiate athletics working in the sports information department at the United States Merchant Marine Academy. After a year as an assistant director, he was promoted to director and also served as an assistant baseball coach.
Fink earned a bachelor's degree in sports management from the University of Massachusetts in 1994 and a professional master's in business administration from UMass in 2000.
Craig and his wife Kim live in Greensboro with their two sons Jack (12) and Alex (10).

News & Analysis
Mr. Goldberg Apologizes for His Mises/Phone Booth Crack?
NYT on the Austrian School ... "It was 'The Road to Serfdom' by Friedrich Hayek that became the ur-text of Mr. Paul's emerging ideology, introducing him to Austrian economics and its Manichaean choice between laissez-faire capitalism and a government-run economy destined for disaster. (Mainstream economists have long dismissed the Austrian school, but it retains a devoted following among libertarians and some conservatives.)" ... I guess it depends what you mean by "mainstream" and "Austrian school," given those Nobel prizes for Friedrich Hayek, James Buchanan, and Milton Friedman. I'm not saying that the Austrian school is dominant or anything like that, and there are many –sometimes conflicting — views that one might identify as Austrian, but this strikes me as awfully glib, no? – Jonah Goldberg / National Review blog
Dominant Social Theme: Well, the Austrians have gotten a little bigger and a bit more noticed. OK.
Free-Market Analysis: Many years ago, leading conservative pundit Jonah Goldberg lost his temper and wrote that Lew Rockwell (of LewRockwell.com and Mises.org) and his libertarian colleagues could fit into a "phone booth."
Not so fast. Today, those who have a lively interest in Austrian free-market economics or who are outright supporters of the magnificent ideas inherent in "human action" and free-market money are a forceful factor throughout the blogosphere.
Goldberg, in this blogsite squib, belatedly seems to acknowledge this (see excerpt above). Of course, in our humble view he still gets it wrong, conflating Friedman with Hayek, which is a little bit like lumping Judas in with the rest of the Disciples.
Friedman, as time goes on, is seen more and more as an apologist for central banking; and the Chicago Freshwater School itself may be seen as laissez-faire lite – sort of a "CATO" by the Great Lakes.
It is fine to rave about government interference in the marketplace as Friedman often did. But his "serious" writing constantly advocates for fiat-monopoly money within the context of a "steady state." By this he meant that central bankers should inject enough money into the economy but not too much.
He even had a number picked out. Say what? Well ... Friedman believed for the longest time that one could approach something called the "economy" using the "science" of central banking. Like so many other apologists for state power, he believed central bankers could fix prices but that they simply weren't doing it properly.
As Friedman's star continues to decline, we see evidence that Austrian economic guru Ludwig von Mises' continues to rise. History is funny that way, often rewarding in the long term those who best present reality, whether or not that reality is recognized in their lifetimes.
Do an Internet search for Mises and you'll come up with maybe three million direct cites. Keynes has only a few hundred thousand more. But a decade ago, you'd have been hard pressed to come up with more than a few dozen cites for Mises – probably all of them generated by the two founders of the Mises foundation, Lew Rockwell and Murray Rothbard.
The growth of the Austrian school has been nothing short of phenomenal. It is EVERYWHERE on the Internet where people interested in ideas gather to exchange views. Even those who are pro-statist and anti-freedom need to deal with the Austrians now. They need to deal with the concepts of Human Action and the acute analysis that modern economies are run into the ground on a regular basis by the central banking-fueled business cycle.
These two concepts, human action and the modern business cycle, are demolishing conventional wisdom about the economy. They are unstoppable truths that undermine the foundations of elite Keynesian economics the way water undermines the foundation of even the most impressive edifice.
It is the Anglosphere power elite that has painstakingly built up modern economics – and what a meretricious construct it is. At its heart lies the enormous lie that good, gray central bankers can fix the price of money on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis.
Of course, every price fix is a marketplace distortion, transferring wealth from those who earned it to those who didn't and are less well equipped to utilize it productively. Over time, this wealth transfer creates market bubbles and then ruinous depressions. We're living through one now.
Austrian economics is part of an economic conversation that goes back 500 years or more (in its modern evolution anyway). It was an Austrian that conceptualized marginal utility, the idea that prices are fungible at the "margin" and only the Invisible Hand can determine them.
The concept of marginal utility is the dividing line between the static "old school" of classical economics (think Malthus and Marx) and the dynamic "new" economics of the neo-classical school.
Interestingly, almost all reputable economists claim to be neo-classical now. But it's simply a rhetorical statement. The Germans and British reclaimed the stubborn, old classical economics with their reliance on econometrics.
Econometrics is the idea that one can predict human behavior if one applies properly complex equations to an adequate amount of data. Econometrics is applied throughout the world by governments large and small to justify new laws and regulations.
But common sense tells us that econometrics cannot work any better than any other kind of forecasting device. As soon as people experience the regulatory fiat, they will react and change their behavior. In fact, they will often change their behavior even BEFORE the laws and regulations are written.
It was the Germans who, when confronted with Austrian, free-market analysis, lost their collective temper and labeled the laissez faire school "Austrian" in contempt. But the original Austrians themselves adopted the name proudly as a badge of honor.
The reason that Austrian economics has swept the blogosphere is because it is the only school that tells the truth about the world. Most people in this world are apparently damaged in childhood and grow up wanting to control other people. Going into politics and writing laws is a good way to do this.
Austrian economics confronts these damaged people – who compensate for the lacunae in their own souls by attempting to control others – with the truth about their behavior. It is hard to tolerate exposure and powerbrokers often react petulantly to economic truths by attacking the messenger. This is why Austrian economics, as it grows ever more popular, is increasingly being attacked by low-level supporters of Anglosphere elite policies.
The Anglosphere itself – the top central banking families – are obviously involved in a campaign against Austrian economics as well. They are using sub-dominant social themes – fear-based promotions – to try to cast aspersions on the school.
Conclusion: Whether or not Goldberg has actually apologized for his initial statement, what cannot be denied is that Austrian, free-market economics is "sweeping the board." It is not doing so because it is somehow a backhanded elitist plot (a part of a larger dialectic) but because it provides people with something very rare in this world: The truth.

My most valuable course in Medical School was--human physiology. It is impossible to know the vast interconnections and interactions of the body. The real World is no different. Austrian Economics seeks a system allowing humanity to live in concert with it's environment. This contrasts with power seekers who wish to control the World.
The evidence is clear who is correct. The controllers (Keynesians) are grasping bleatedly, and will soon succumb to "Mother Nature".

Wasn't Delphi a more recent "Cold War" divide and conquer invention, which seems to me to be a reflection of a much used Attachment Disorder technique to steer the situation in a direction that is comfortable for the antagonist, which is well within the comfort zone of those that got raised by nannies, as they never really got any Mother's Love?
I prefer Zeno Of Elea, as he was/is the Master Of "reductio ad absurdum" and Aristotle's pick as the inventor of the dialectic.

"Meme hunter has proven without a doubt that Libertarianism and Austrianism is sponsered and was sponsored from day one by the same people you claim to resist."
"Memehunter" aka "Black Night" (aka "Memecreator") has done no such thing. He keeps CLAIMING to have done so. Big difference.
I would also like to note that MH/BK resorts to false citations, association fallacies, straw men arguments and outright lies on a regular basis. One wonders why he feels the need to make use of such "techniques", when he asserts to be searching for truth at the same time.
I will not again go into the details here. Anyone interested may follow recent threads and judge for him/herself.
However, since you claim MH/BK has "proven" his allegations I will ask you the same question I proposed to him:
If this "Austrian/Keynesian dialectic" existed - as a means of the elite that is - how come they never came up with a "solution/synthesis"? How come, then, that they promote, live and breath ONLY ONE of the alleged "sides" of the asserted "dialectic" FOR CENTURIES?
You may also want take a look at these recent articles and try to disprove them. Good luck!
"Austrian economics is not just economics. It is a theory of human action itself. And this is why the Austrian School continues to grow, despite all the attempts to smear it, put it down, make it go away, and otherwise marginalize its thinkers and writers. Consider that this has been going on for well more than a century, beginning with the phrase Austrian School itself, which was coined by the German Historical School with the implication that Austrians were inferior in every respect to Germans.
The attempt hasn't worked over the long run. It does and can work in one, lifetime however, and individual Austrians have often paid a high price for refusing to think as they are told. In the case of Mises, it was not a parlor game. He put his very life on the line in his decision to speak the truth. But extend the analysis over several generations, and you see a different picture of trailblazing a new mainstream of thought.
A few years ago, an image came out on the web that was supposed to depict a line of economists. They were all staring at a graph. When the line went, up the economists would smile a bit. When it went down, they would frown. That was the whole depiction.
Economics is very different in the hands of the Austrian tradition. It is something with powerful explanatory power that deals with the rise and fall of whole civilizations. It deals with gigantic issues and the smallest possible personal issues. It provides a window for looking at the world with intelligence and realism. And though science itself is value free, its practitioners never are. They bring the values of peace, prosperity, and freedom to the mix, and provide us with a beautiful vision of life itself.
It is for this reason that Mises ends his masterpiece with these words, which-like Walter Block--we must never forget: "Economics must not be relegated to classrooms and statistical offices and must not be left to esoteric circles. It is the philosophy of human life and action and concerns everybody and everything. It is the pith of civilization and of man's human existence."

"Mises in 1934 moved to Switzerland to take a teaching position. It was his first paid teaching position that he had been offered since 1906. That was seemingly late in his career. As it turned out, it wasn't. He remained in the classroom until 1969: another 35 years. But he did not remain in Switzerland.
In 1940, he and his wife made a run for it. They had to get to Portugal in order to get to the United States. They had to go across France. The Nazis were invading. There was not much time. They might be caught. They barely made it, due to the creative driving of a bus driver.
Why did he risk it? Because he was not confident that the Swiss government would let him remain in Switzerland. As it turned out, the government would have. But Mises could not be sure. So, he got out while the getting was good - just barely.
Here was his thinking. To guess wrong on staying seemed riskierthan betting wrong on leaving. But it was nip and tuck. He could have made the wrong decision. But he was focused. This decision was life-changing, but he could not have known this at the time. He saw it as life-preserving.
In the United States, he never had a paid position again. Donors paid his salary at New York University from 1945 to 1969. The university limited its largess to offering him a title, "visiting professor," and the right to teach graduate students in a weekly seminar. Among the auditors was Murray Rothbard, who became a major intellectual figure, though not in academia. Ron Paul would not be running for President if it were not for Rothbard and Mises. I would not be writing this report."

"As you have nothing constructive to say, you are welcome to post somewhere else. We would be relieved. This is nothing but nonsense." ... .. Reply from The Daily Bell
That was a tad harsh, DB, whenever for a few in the hundreds of millions who haven't a clue about what is going on and how it is delivered to be the Present, is it anything but nonsense ... ... . although it may very well be the case of it being only well understood by those few enabled and able-bodied and into the generation and distribution of secure control memes.
Am I mistaken in thinking that RR is a very recent visitor and poster here, with no real history of Great GBIrish to evidence submissions as being objectively confirmed and worthily subjectively classified as nothing but nonsense?
There is a lot more going on out there in the space/place which provides this tiny planet with its intelligence and ITs IntelAIgents, than will ever be made generally known, DB, by virtue of the undeniable fact that so few will ever able to comprehend the true virtual nature of reality and the simple binary means of its complex digital control. And thus is it always perfectly safe to selflessly share it.
And thus do the few grow and become many and overwhelmingly powerful in conditions of absolute control of billions and trillions.

DB: "Boy, you're scary. We noticed that, too, and though we didn't think of DB in particular, the phrase popped out at us. He knows what he's doing, he knows who he is addressing and why ... "
Ha, don't be shy! I DID think "of DB in particular" and I hold to my initial appreciation.
When you think I'm scary, by the way, I have to say you had it coming ...

"So Greenspan is actually an Austrian free-market economist and ran the Federal Reserve within libertarian parameters? You base this on what, an article he wrote for Ayn Rand in his 20s?
And Schiff and Celente are actually part of a conspiracy to validate Austrian economics by explaining "what could go wrong" after receiving information from the Rothschilds themselves on when the crash would occur with "mathematical certaInty?"
Well, I'm not sure about Peter Schiff: he had to explain his grandfather is not the same Jacob Schiff, after all.
Here's Alan Greenspan saying the same thing just after he quit office:

The proverbial lightbulb does not switch on when our arch enemy promotes a Gold Standard?
oh, I forgot: he became honest since he's no longer in charge of the Fed. He no longer needs to lie, right? He can be straight now and say it was all a mistake. We need Gold, Alan says so. He should know, he was so wrong when in office.
Meme hunter has proven without a doubt that Libertarianism and Austrianism is sponsered and was sponsored from day one by the same people you claim to resist.
Austrianism wants deflation, which is a disaster on all counts as I have made very clear.
Austrianism ignores interest, a 5 to 10- trillion wealth transfer from the poorest 80% to the richest 10%.
Austrianism ignores that 'free markets' are quickly done in by Monopoly Capitalism.
Austrianism calls for a gold standard while knowing Gold is completely controlled. So even in a 'free market' environment, the Money Supply is clearly not free.
Austrianism blames the state for everything, ignoring the top of the pyramid and falsely claiming Govt is at the top.
So I think I'm fully prepared to stick with my statement that your economics suck.
What is clear, is that you won't budge even in the face of FACTS.
You are, however, clever debaters. Subtly misrepresenting, always looking for little details in formulations to point all your attention there. Manipulating the discourse by willfully downplaying valid points.
Never wondering, never saying: we'll be back, we have to look into this or that.
No my friends. You've been had.
Or you're trying to have us.
Considering your debating techniques, which are quite advanced and reminiscent of delphi techniques and the like, the obvious amount of money that is needed to operate the daily bell (where does that come from? How do four people get payed from one little website? Which banks does Wile work for and what does he do there?)
Reply from The Daily Bell
This thread contains ample information regarding all the conceptual points you're making. Regarding Memehunter, our issues go beyond his perspectives to his propensity to "clog" a thread by repeating the same issues over and over. He also tends to repeat factual errors and ignores any corrections.
You ask questions about DB itself? Your assertions are not correct, especially about the size of DB. (Wile doesn't work for banks and has no day-to-day role at DB, which is a very small organization compared to Rense, Alex Jones, etc.) We don't inquire how, say, Makow (someone we respect in many ways) funds his publishing.
We respect the privacy of the alternative media, given the terrible nature of what's going on in the West. We try to stick the issues. Some (Memehunter comes to mind) have in the past requested we keep certain personal information private that might cause them harm, and we have respected their wishes, no matter how heated the debate.
Attacking people's reputations and background directly is not a good way of furthering discussion (heated or not). We don't think Memehunter has proven that the Austrian School is a power-elite sham and we are sad that great concepts like the business cycle and human action are being pulled into a larger debate. We came to know about them maybe 25 years ago and are still amazed by them today. They are a step forward for freedom, not a step back and should be "above the fray."
As far as your currency goes, we've requested you clarify how it works several times. You haven't been especially discourteous, and ordinarily seem to want to debate ideas based on their merits, so you're welcome to write an article that we'd consider for posting here. Up to you ....
PS: Just to re-emphasize: We are for competing currencies in a private market and believe gold and silver would emerge as one solution based on historical precedent. But we have stated in the past that even Ellen Brown's solutions (what we understand of them) would be better than what we have now, to begin with, anyway.

"It was an Austrian that conceptualized marginal utility, the idea that prices are fungible at the "margin" and only the Invisible Hand can determine them."
Let us not forget the many dimensions of "human action," one of which stuck with me: preferences are ordinal not cardinal.
People already rank what is important to them. It's ludicrous for the government to do the ranking for them.

DB: It is perfectly possible to jump to conclusions about people based on surface perceptions of relationships. Totally agree. Maybe I should have phrased it better , or you misread.
Posted by RR on 02/12/12 12:25 PM
The Austro-Hungarian Empire (1867 to 1918) was dissolved by the victors at the end of World War I and broken into separate new states. The same threat to a fraction of elites is still on today. Do these elites support the Austrian school as they find themselves in the same situation as the masses? It is true it is impossible in this world to survive in a bubble as DB has mentioned. The smearing by association is a non starter.

memehubnter/Black Knight
I notice you do not like to be called a troll. From Urban Dictionary, Troll: one who posts deliberately provocative message... with the intention of causing maximmum disruption and argument. Also, since you like to quote Wikipedia, it also says for the purpose of causing emotional responses. Bingo. This is evidenced in your seeming to enjoy and wear as a badge any emotional responses. Hence your switching to the Black Knight avatar even though the video caused the rest of us to roar with laughter. You go unfazed. You continue in your assult even though you have been proven wrong.
You appear as a nice guy, but I would say you are a very dangerous person. You take these discussion elsewhere and continue what I feel amounts to slander of the Daily Bell. Yet they painstakingly continue to take apart your arguments. It means nothing to you exept to make you feel yuo are the one being wronged.
Most of the readers here follow the Daily Bell because we agree with their ideas. For some of us, what is discussed here is the ONLY human hope for this world. Yet you want to tear that hope down. It makes one think that you would even dispute the Lord God. Oh wait... you have already done that repeatedly. I will close by asking one question-- who are your followers? How many? Take your time, I am sure you can count them on one hand.

"Of course, I have said these things several times, but it does not prevent you or the DB for continually mis-representing my positions. I wonder why you feel the need to consistently do so (at this point, I don't need to ask this question in the case of the DB, of course... )."
The DB doesn't have to misrepresent your positions because you do a very good job of it youeself.
I apprieciate the ideas you bring forth, but when shown to be contradictory you do not address them.
Here is another one:
You say the means of exchange should not be the same as the means for savings. Which I don't think is important enough to argue about. But then you say the means of exchange should be interest free which is the best way to promote it for being a means of savings. For example, if a person has an interest free mortgage, why pay it off even if he has enough savings to do so? Saving the means of exchange is encouraged.
Posted by bionic mosquito on 02/12/12 09:58 AM
You have spent tens of thousands of words making clear what you mean by "support".
I explain that the elites understand and utilize the knowledge of Austrian economics. This is plainly and obviously not the same as your rants about "support". This would be obvious to any third grade school child reading your screeds.
It seems that an additional appendage has been amputated from the Black Night - the one connected by the neck.

"painfully repetitious."
welcome to MY world:)
... but, short term compromise with falsity (criminals) EQUALS (integrates to) long term doom, the point we are now at. Push is rapidly becoming shove, as it must.
Posted by rossbcan on 02/12/12 09:10 AM
"Care to indicate more specifically"
your INTERPRETATION that past elite support of Austrian Economics MEANS that Austrian economics is a falsity. Your FALSE ad-hominum "argument" that, association TAINTS, forever the "truth" and those who accurately prove / represent it. Not to mention your false assumption that "what was, is", static (statist) POV that completely ignores that fact that among the self-volitional (intelligent), the only constant is change and tit for tat adaptation.
You have not demonstrated the ability and, apparent will to discern the fact that truth "needs no spokeperson". Truth just IS, independent of supporters, faux "expert" spokespersons or acknowlegement by forceful "blessors of truth". Truth will exist and remain constant long after there exists anyone to "debate" "what is truth":
Click to view link
I agreed fully with DB, you have proven yourself to be not a "seeker of truth", but a purveyor of lies and self-delusion. I also agree that confronting trolls such as yourself is truly "neccessary", to help everyone to "know their enemy" and to understand complex "arguments" such as yours as the hot air (nothing) and logical fallicies of which they are constructed.
Reply from The Daily Bell
We have noticed that the nonsense Memehunter/Black Knight purveys here then shows up elsewhere as fact. So it is important to confront the lies "for the record." However, there comes a point where it becomes painfully repetitious.
Posted by Black_Knight on 02/12/12 08:39 AM
Look, DB, I have to make one thing clear.
You wrote, on this very website, a few days ago:
"The Anglosphere power elite REALLY dislikes Austrian economics for three reasons."
Click to view link
As I said, my mission was to show that this statement was false. Period. I refer your readers to my post at 02/12/12 07:03 AM for ample evidence of this.
I also note that most complaints should be taken up with Wikipedia, since I acted mostly as an "aggregator" in this case, so it is mostly futile to try to attack me, my personality, my opinions, or my "agenda". It will not change the facts.
Finally, the rest of your rant is almost totally irrelevant to this conversation. In any case, I trust that honest readers will be able to separate between facts and baseless smearing (from either side).
Reply from The Daily Bell
This is a rhetorical trick of yours. You cite numerous imbecilic facts and then when challenged, you blame any inaccuracies on your sources!
You haven't proven that the (modern) power elite is enamored of Austrian economics, and obviously we were referring to today's elite when we made that statement. All you were able to come up with is that Mises was personally funded by Rockefeller (obviously a lie) and that Rothbard was a lifelong supporter of CATO (a canard if there ever was one).
You are free to go elsewhere to claim that modern (Rothbardian) Austrian economics is part of a planned power-elite dialectic (as indeed it appears you do). But if you are going to dissemble and be factually inaccurate as you have been throughout this thread, you are doing no one any service.
Posted by Black_Knight on 02/12/12 08:22 AM
Care to indicate more specifically where you disagree with the evidence I provided? You'll likely have to take that up with Wikipedia, by the way, not with me.
Otherwise, your point is irrelevant.
Posted by rossbcan on 02/12/12 08:02 AM
you've failed. Both arms and legs are gone. The "arguments" you spew indicate decapitation also.
time for re-assignment to another site. You are now on my, and I suspect, many others "ignore list" due to your "noise" detraction in the signal to noise ratio of truthseeking.

[float=left][attachment=595:newMyst.jpg][/float]Myst Island is one of the most famous Ages in the story of Atrus, and continues to play an important role in the saga of D'ni even to this day. Written by Ti'Anna, Myst served as Atrus and Catherine's base of operations during their attempt to exile Gehn on Riven. Once his father had been dealt with, Atrus made Myst his family's home; Ti'Anna lived out the last of her days on the island, just as Sirrus and Achenar were raised here.
Myst also came to house Atrus's ever growing library of Ages and their corresponding commentaries. Ever the tinkerer, Atrus (and presumably his family, judging from the boys' willingness to work on his other Ages) constructed additional buildings ranging from an offshore clocktower and a wooden cabin to a planetarium and a dock. Several of the Myst Island structures also served as "places of protection", or secure holding spots where linking books (and other valuables) could be hidden away. It is difficult to gauge when the "places of protection" were designed and installed, although the wording of holographic messages leads us to believe that they were in place long before the betrayal of Sirrus and Achenar.
Tragically, Myst is best remembered as the site of immeasurable crimes committed by the sons of Atrus and Catherine, who plundered the Ages of the Myst library. The brothers were eventually trapped on Ages intentionally devoid of linking books, but only after many of the civilizations in Atrus's Ages were destroyed.
How the individual known as "the Stranger" came to possess a Myst linking book is one of the great mysteries of the D'ni. After dropping a linking book to the island in the Star Fissure on Riven--which marooned Gehn on the Age--the book could have landed anywhere. Although Eddy County, New Mexico, shows a strong connection to the Star Fissure, there is no evidence to suggest the book landed there. What is known, however, is that the Stranger navigated Myst and its Ages, saving Atrus and what was left of his family.
Although Myst was apparently granted to the Stranger following the events of the computer game "MYST", Atrus and Catherine virtually abandoned the place, returning only on rare occasions. Yeesha seems to have inherited her parents feelings regarding the island, referring to it as a "cursed place" and refusing to set foot there. This figured prominently into the events surrounding the release of the Bahro: hoping to acquire the Tablet for himself, D'ni native Esher attempted to lure the Tablet-bearer to Myst, a location where Yeesha would not interfere. While he may have been able to trap unwary explorers on the island--as he linked via a patch of Bahro skin, there were no linking books on Myst--he was ultimately unsuccessful. Dr. Watson released the Bahro in 2005, leading directly to Esher's capture.
The island is currently in deplorable condition. The structures are crumbling, the lawn is unkempt, and fierce thunderstorms pound the island with rain almost constantly. No doubt as a result of this state, all but the main chamber of the library are closed to modern explorers, and the room itself is bare save for a piece of clothing.
While there are still many questions surrounding this prominent locale, one especially troublesome issue is that of housing. Early sketches show a tent where Atrus and Catherine slept during the Age's infancy, but modern explorations have failed to account for later accommodations. Making the situation even more frustrating is the clear evidence of arrangements in many of the other Ages of Myst, ranging from a hammock in J'nanin to the furnished rooms of Sirrus and Achenar in Stoneship and Channelwood. Many postulate that the sleeping quarters are
the library, and can be reached either via the observation tower elevator or the fireplace.
This issue is part of a larger concern with Myst's logistics. According to D'ni historian Richard Watson, consultant to game developer Cyan Worlds, the version of Myst represented in the game was in fact much smaller than it was in reality; only the structures necessary for completion of the game were included, and as a result, the general public is unaware of additional "places of protection".
While Myst is largely devoid of wildlife, both seagulls and monarch butterflies are common.
A gravestone near the cabin bears the name of Ti'Ana and is surrounded by her favorite blue flowers. (the same found in the Cleft).

It would seem the tagging system can be a mite unreliable about re-highlighting tags that have already been applied to an article on re-edit... I had to re-apply a few of the tags that got lost. Also, a minor point, Ti'ana only has one N in it (Anna has 2), but beyond that, it looks good to me.
Nice to see more than just me and Myster HERO hanging around these parts.
