Like our global energy crises there must be economically sustainable as well. We assume that because a dollar circulates from your hand to Wal-Mart's stockholders hands that our economic system is sustainable - but it is not.
The problem is not money - money is merely as unit of measure. Blaming a unit of measure for what drives the heart of man, well is the nature of man. Therefore the first problem of a unit of money is the human heart. The second and real problem with a unit of money is in the growth calculation used for compound interest. Compound interest is based upon the mathematical rule of 72. The rule of 72: the interest rate is divided in the number 72 and the result of the number of years required for the unit of money to double in value. For example: 5% interest divided into 72 results with 12, therefore every 12 years the principal amount doubles in value meaning 1 becomes 2 and 100 becomes 200 but in trillions such as our deficit - well you do the math but realize that the interest will certainly change significantly by the time you completed a single calculation.
The challenge presented is that in a futuristic society such non-sustainable rules would be restricted from education and healthcare.
If this program was from the World Bank - what would be your response?
Any ideas or comments?

My friend from Africa says people there sometime have 10- 28 children. This IS a problem..and why our population is maxing out.
I was merely making a point too..btw
Do you know if there are trade schools that specialize in areas resource managment, reycyling and green technologies? In the U.S.? There must be--I'm not in that circle, I'm out in jungle in Hawaii---I was just wondering if this is something that's advancing poslsibilities for 20 somethings?
I think the question is, what are we prepared for? The world has been fine without us, we are the newbies, and like a skin cancer are making a mess exterminating everything within our reach...What would happen if the grid went down? Would we have short wave radios, gardens, water catchment, water purification methods, ways to manufacture our own hydrogen, or methane for fuel, LIKE the old days, horses, donkeys, bicycles, ETC? No. No long term plan, so, seriously....asking about economics seems extremely childish. If we were going out on a journey in a small weboat, would ou take nothing...just "wing it"? No. Well, that's what our species is doing--we're flying by the seat of our pants, and have our heads buried in electronic devices, that, at the drop of a hat may go into total, indefinite blackout...and there we'd be, eyes crossed, bumps on logs, most not knowing anything about anything other than having heads and ears buried in electronic devices, racing around getting quick fixes, buying Big Macs. How many of us are like this, incapable of handling actual life without the sluggo conveniences, of our very very verey new---electronic age. Talking about a futuristic society sounds hilarious to me...we are SO NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING PREPARED for even the next ten years!!! Trying to 'civilize' primitive culture's is a joke.....they're the only one's prepared for a global emergency, we should ask them how to make the big changes.
P.S. When did the word OVERPOPULATION become politically incorrect? Aren't most if not all our world's issues the product of our indiscriminate choice as human beings, to think it's perfectly o.k. to breed until we're neck high in poop, not like an intelligent society, but no different than noxious weeds? We cull buffalo, elephants, bugs, but wouldn't think of seeing how our collective superiority complex which wouldn't THINK of slowing down our population, is the reason for mass exterminations of species. Wow. That's just sick--
"Overpopulation" is what is touted by the global elite to make Us accept the false scarcity They impose upon Us. This planet is vastly abundant and can, as I said earlier, support a minimum of ten times the present population as is. Add innovative food growing methods such as vertical farming and that number may rise to as much as 100 times the present population.
You are a victim of propaganda leading You to wrong thinking. Open Your eyes and see that, statistically speaking, Humans don't even exist on this planet.
As you said? Wow, you must be smarter than 99% of all the scientists who
know you are wrong. How bout exterminating other species because of us...that
ok with you too?
Your earth based vehicle, is dependent on water, food and air...that's a fact. Sadly,
people sometimes get turned around when they disconnect from all the other life, that's been here a lot longer than us--who also need water, food and air. We are hogging it all, toxifying it, even our electronics keeps lights on when 'life' needs darkness. If you don't think you're human,
try the moon.
You know... Because of Your sweet and gentle approach, I will grace You with the ideas that -
a) Scientists can be bought
b) Publications can be bought
c) Journalists can be bought
d) There are Those with motivation to buy reports suggesting overpopulation is a problem, convincing Us to accept less and less while They accumulate more and more.
I'll even further edify You with additional food for thought:
Well, I could go on and on... Anyway, "overpopulation" alarmists presume a number of things:
1) Continued reliance on petro-fuels like oil, coal and gas
2) Continued consumption-driven economy
3) Continued poverty (high birth rate)
4) Continued profit-driven pollution
5) Continued profit-driven rape of the planet
and a few others.
I have this posted elsewhere, but I will post it here again:
The Ethical Planetarian Party Platform
by Amaterasu
Have You tired of the empty promises of politicians? Have You seen the "divide and conquer" successes in everything from school teams to country identities? Do You want the planet to coexist?
Perhaps You might consider the Ethical Planetarian Party.
What is the Ethical Planetarian Party? What are its goals and platform?
First, We stand for upholding the three Laws:
1. Do not willfully harm or kill another Being
2. Do not willfully take or damage another Being's property
3. Do not willfully defraud another Being
In other words, We choose to maintain civil interaction, face to face. The biological parent has precedence in the case of Our children, unless there is evidence that these same Laws are not kept with Them as well. They are Beings, too. Beings are any who ask for rights, or have Others of the same species ask in proxy if They are unable to ask, Themselves. This is not license to mal-treat beings of "lower" Consciousness, for all Consciousness should be respected. The goal is for as much of Consciousness to spend as much of the time as possible comfortable.
A quick, clean and honorable death for the flesh a Being eats, having given comfort throughout the life of any domestic food.
Second, We are predicated on the idea that Humans should be free to take advantage of the abundance of the planet by eliminating money through free energy.
Third, We strive to allow religious choice, believing that there are as many Callings as there are Beings, and as long as the Laws are kept, how One approaches that which One is, is to be respected.
Fourth, We expect the use of technology under these Laws, with peaceful intent, including free energy – the key to eliminating money. We know much is presently hidden in fear that We might exact retribution or follow folly, but We are of the opinion, based on evidence, that when Humans have no money, generosity and loving behavior are expended to help Those in need. With technology We both have personal awareness of and much science and anecdote grasped, We know We can eliminate money as a necessity and provide abundance for everyOne. We call for the release of electrogravitics from black projects, where it has been held secret for over 50 years.
We are out to eliminate poverty.
Fifth, We will bring forth a website where problems can be brought up locally and People can "vote" to bump a problem up, down, show apathy by not voting, and chime in with solutions (which can be cheered and booed). Issues will drop off after the original poster indicates that the problem has been resolved or withdrawn, or there has been no activity after, say, six months (that is not set in stone). Social responsibility will be defined as spending 15 minutes a day examining issues on this site.
Also, issues with some set number of bumps up will be considered issues that need a wider awareness and go to regional sections. From there, continental, perhaps, and then global, as more are needed to be involved in solving the problem. Problems will beget the awareness to solve them.
Without money as a motive, problems will be solved more creatively, directly, harmoniously, and within the three Laws.
Sixth, We are staunch in our support of an organic planet. Though hybridization is an awesome tool, genetically modifying organisms is NOT. Without money, there is no motivation to create GMO. We know that organics can produce on par or better yield and better nutrition than their petrochemically "fertilized" brethren. Any non-organic approaches to problems will be highly discouraged, unless it is seen that such a solution is the best.
Beyond this, sustainability is Our goal.
Seventh, We see that, without money, We can build machines – robots – to do all necessary work. Without work as an "ethic," We substitute a "Betterment Ethic," and encourage all to look for ways – within the three Laws and with organic solutions prized – to improve conditions on this planet for everyOne, and offer these ideas for consideration and possible action.
Eighth, We understand that virtually all crime is, on one level or another, related to money, and without money as motive, virtually all crime will vanish – leaving the very few, passion-related crimes for Us to deal with. We will deal with all crime publicly, and Those who care can and will decide each case. Most such choice of behavior will lead to social pariah-hood for the perpetrators.
Ninth, We support open source in all things We program. This allows for many to make suggestions for betterment, and ensures that no one will create outside the three Laws. It also eliminates "back doors," and other surreptitious software segments that bog down the clean functioning of the program. Without money as a motive, programmers will be proud to offer Their work for scrutinization and use, openly and freely. Status will be gained for creating the best programs.
Tenth, We understand that food waste is rampant with food distributed by profit, abundant as it is but poorly and/or untimely delivered. Without money, food distribution will be based on need and not profit, ensuring that waste is minimal, food is fresh for all (no One waiting for the wilted cast-offs), and readily available.
Though these approaches are revolutionary, We understand that if enough People are on board, a fresh, free, fun, and fulfilling life will be Ours – and everyone else's – as We choose. No One needs to change anything except where there is a problem – and then Those who care are free to solve it within the three Laws.
Without money, bureaucracy will become unnecessary, vastly reducing paper use, and streamlining solutions. Jobs in banking, insurance, and other such money-related industries will disappear, and in their place, the opportunity to spend time as One wishes.
Transportation will be free – for Ourselves, Our food and product systems, and any other transportation needs. This offers the ability to go where One wishes, moving food to where it is needed, and other freedom We presently do not have, with transportation energy costing so much.
We are a planetary party and decry any solutions that maintain a "divide and conquer" attitude or outcome, including stateism, nationalism, partyism, teamism, etc. We are one species on one planet, and we seek to benefit the planet ethically and wholly.
To join, merely state that You are a member. All that is required, as a Party member, is to inform Others about the Ethical Planetarian Party – send this link, or copy and paste to email this content.
Perhaps You'd like to join.
This is wrongful thinking. Humans are being blamed for the consumerism that They have been taught, the disregard for the environment the corporations display, and many other ills that can be traced specifically to a LOVE of money (the root of all evil). Humans are very loving, beautiful Beings twisted under the ill-fitting yoke of a money system controlled by a few.
If We had access to Our own overunity ("free energy"), non-polluting devices such as electrogravitics offers, there will be no grid. We can use them to run water purification units such as the one invented by Dean Kamen. We can run Our homes, electronics, appliances with this energy.
So the "long term plan is to:
1) Raise awareness that this technology exists so that We can -
2) Call for the release of the overunity technology to -
3) Remove the cost of energy in manufacturing, transportation, agriculture, homes, & misc. so -
4) The cost of building robots to do the necessary jobs no One wants to do becomes affordable so -
5) We can relieve Ourselves of undesired toil, being supported easily at this point on social services since -
6) Money will become unnecessary when the effort to collect the penny for the week's groceries (the room full of furniture, the house, the [fill in the blank]) is more than the penny is worth
By abundantly replacing the money with what it represents (meaningful energy expended), the need for money dissipates and there is no motive to promote consumerism. There is no motive to solve issues the cheapest or most profitable way. There is no motive to steal - if One wants it, another can be had for the asking on the web. There is no motive to defraud. There is no motive to silence discoveries. There is no motive to hide cures. There is no motive to do what does not give One bliss.
There WILL be motive to better the world - Those who contribute will earn appreciation, thanks, gratitude, namr recognition and Self satisfaction. Instill a Betterment Ethic in place of the work "ethic" (a slave's ethic - enrich others with One's Human energy).
"From Each according to BLISS; to Each according to DESIRE."
I'm beginning to think You are a pessimist extraordinaire...
My petition link once more:
PS I like a lot of your ideas...just not your take on population. It's math..distribution of
water, poop, humic acid...the entire world is depleted of fulvic acid which is mandatory
for life, our industrial revolution sucked life out of earth, water and disregarded flora, fauna
and wildlife...as if the world belongs to us. We are animals, in body...perhaps not in consciousness, unless we make God in the image of man.........which we do.
Seems science is able to synthesize both humic and fulvic acids...and I found MANY places selling them online in natural form. Not sure it looks like We have a problem on that score.
Distribution of water is an easy thing. As I said, Dean Kamen invented a machine that the most polluted, nasty water could go in and safe potable water comes out. Run it on electrogravitic free energy and the water can be available anywhere there is any water at all available.
"Poop" is only a problem in crowded cities - but with free energy, We would no longer have to stick to a grid. Our "poop" can be disposed of by Our household robot which will dig a hole, bury it, and let nature take its course. Or any of a huge number of other solutions.
If We focus on healing the Earth, it's not too late. With profit motive removed, We can do that.
As just an aside... The only reason We war on this planet is because the war profiteers incite war. "If You want peace, take the profit out of war." And the only way to do that is to eliminate the need for money.
Since I believe Consciousness is "God" co-creating the Now (Now is the only thing that's real...), I do believe I AM God; Thou ART God. And as both facets of and the whole of God, We can choose to create heaven on Earth. And it does not mean We have to rid Ourselves of People, or live in scarcity, or be wage-slaves, or go hungry, or any of the other issues imposed scarcity creates.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. - Senior siblings Nathan Anderson and Amy Anderson won individual titles and the North Dakota State men's and women's golf teams swept the Jackrabbit Fall Invitational on Monday, Oct. 1, at Minnehaha Country Club.
Nathan shot an even-par 70 in the final round to finish at 2-over 212 and won by one stroke over South Dakota State's Hudson Carpenter. Amy shot a 4-over 75 in the final round and finished at 3-over 216 to win by 10 shots over South Dakota State's Morgan Fitts.
North Dakota State's men won the eight-team tournament by eight shots with an 877 ahead of South Dakota State (885) and Northern Iowa (888). NDSU's women won by 18 shots with a 933 ahead of Northern Iowa (951) and Augustana (953).
Nathan, the older brother by 16 months and 12 days, won his second tournament in three outings this year. It was Amy's first win of the year and the 16th of her college career - one shy of the Division I record 17 wins by San Jose State's Juli Inkster, according to Golf World.
NDSU had three men in the top 10. Trent Olson tied for third (219), Bill Carlson tied for sixth (220), Nate Varty tied for 18th (229) and Connor Holland tied for 27th (232).
The NDSU women also placed three players in the top 10. Sarah Storandt was ninth (238), Abby Knutson tied for 10th (239), Hailey Boner tied for 12th (240) and Megan Swan tied for 39th (262).
The Bison men are at Sam Houston State next week and Kansas City in two weeks to close out their fall schedule. The women close out their fall calendar Oct. 30-31 at Hawaii.

iPads once again the top holiday gadget among kids, study says
Kids in the U.S. sure do like Apple gear, says a new study.
According to a recent poll of children ages 6 to 12 in the U.S. by research firm Nielsen, Apple's tablet once again came in first as the most-wanted gadget this holiday season, followed closely by iPods and iPhones. Of those polled, 48 percent said they wanted an iPad.
This is actually the third year in a row Apple's tablet has topped the list. Since 2010, the gadget has beat out computers, and Apple's own iPod Touch. This year's list also includes … Read more

Could it be that bad press and consumer backlash have dulled the enthusiasm of these former biotech cheerleaders? On the other hand, is Big Food just cozying up to the FDA so they can derail the growing organic and anti-GMO movement and finagle a federal labeling law so toothless it will not be worth the ink it takes to sign it?

Valentine's Day gifts for her
Designer Erin Fetherston may not "kiss and tell," but she certainly will "kiss and create" when inspiration strikes.
As it did last year when she was out with girlfriends and became fascinated by the wide variety of lipstick prints they all left on napkins. Mwah! Each one unique. So she gathered kiss prints from her gal pals in her studio and designed a custom lipstick print, which appears on various items in her spring line, including a strapless dress, skinny pants and a cosmetics bag. No surprise-- the line is called "Sealed with a Kiss." And perfect for Valentine's Day.
We've gathered a bunch of other ideas, available in stores or on websites--which for a little extra shipping fee can get goods to you by Thursday. -- Joseph V. Amodio

LWN.net Weekly Edition for June 6, 2013
Geeks in T-shirts and jeans (as if that was something bad)... and showing softporn... Sorry, girls, when you are so easily offended, it shows that many of you are actual misandrists, and you do nothing about it. Accept that genders come with differences (and the way sexual desires are expressed is one of the more obvious gender difference), and don't try to gender mainstream them. Come on, sexism isn't limited to males only, and when I hear girls talking about geeks, a lot of sexism comes along. This of course starts with talk about improper clothing, or personal hygiene, continues with alleged anti-social behavior, and certainly culminates in accusing of sexual harassment for every possible occasion. As long as such hatred exists on the other side, it is very difficult to overcome.
If you have enough women together, it is very easy to find some with improper clothing, insufficient personal hygiene, and social deficits, as well. This is normal standard distribution of statistics. Using these examples and making conclusions to a larger community is prejudice.
I'm fine that misogynism is now considered inappropriate behavior. However, we can't get much further if we allow open misandrism. And the general hostile perception of geeks by women is open misandrism - while a lot worse behavior is usually tolerated with traditional "high value" professions such as in finance or medicine. Or so to speak: We geeks aren't as well dressed as marketing - but we don't take our customers to the brothel.
SCALE 8x: Moving the needle
Posted Mar 5, 2010 22:47 UTC (Fri) by speedster1 (subscriber, #8143) [Link]
Sorry if you felt sterotyped by my example, but it was a complete misinterpretation!
My example stated that we should not be pressured into being "fashion conscious" in order to attract women who are into pop culture. Feel free to scold me for doubting that a group of people who have been trained to obsess over clothes are worthy recruits for a community more interested in creative problem-solving, but don't accuse me of picking on geeks. The last statement was meant as a contrast; there are also women who are more interested in learning than getting hung up on what people are wearing, and you can welcome them without discriminating against current members.
Try reading my comment again, in the full context of the thread. I'll summarize what I got from it.
golding: don't get hung up on female attendance, just be open to all coders independent of gender
paulj: golding is paranoid about having females getting favored over him; that's a non-issue in the real world
speedster1: maybe golding is not paranoid; some efforts to "balance attendance" really could be detrimental to the existing community, *insert hypothetical example of doin' it wrong*, so try to be sensible
forthy: everyone picks on geeks for being bad dressers and lacking in hygiene, and in general it's popular among girls to be man-haters nowadays
speedster1: Hello, hello??? I'm NOT picking on geeks for being bad dressers or lacking in hygiene; I AM one. Be nice to women like Sarah Mei who are interested in technology, but don't bend over backwards to attract women who spend hours primping every day and think what Vogue has to say is important. It probably wouldn't work anyways.

Killfile support would really be worthy raising the price of subscription...
Posted Mar 6, 2010 2:26 UTC (Sat) by paulj (subscriber, #341) [Link]
WTF? No one is asking you to "be nice to women". No one is asking you to go out of your way to do anything, or put yourself to any trouble. The only thing you're asked to do, nay you MUST do, is just treat people *normally* and not be an arse.
Also, this quote of yours is mild WTF material, though I believe you mean well:
"That's a far cry from being welcoming to females who show up interested in technology and willing to learn about it from geeks in t-shirts and jeans..."
Can you spot the subconscious, but not very subtle, chauvinism in this comment of yours?
Posted Mar 6, 2010 7:37 UTC (Sat) by speedster1 (subscriber, #8143) [Link]
Obviously you are not all gung-ho about affirmative-action type of social engineering, which can backfire in various ways. So I really don't see where we even disagree on this topic.
"Be nice to women like Sarah Mei who are interested in technology,"
That doesn't sound like an unreasonable goal to me. I aim to be friendly to all who show up at my LUG. People generally seem to like it. Probably that fits somewhere into your definition of "treating people normally".
This is not patronizing if taken in context. Consider that the topic of this article was about attracting females who are not currently part of the community. So their first role would be that of learner. If Valerie Aurora were in town, I'd try to talk her into doing a presentation. If I asked the organic avocado farmer in my LUG to do a presentation on anything Linux-related, she'd turn me down in about 0 seconds flat.

This is wonderful. It is a generous portion for the price. The salmon is not over smoked but has great texture and flavor. It is great with cream cheese and crackers.

Comments about Harry & David Northwest Smoked Salmon:
My husband raved about how well the salmon tasted! He ate it in combination with the pears and refused to share. The kids insisted that they get the same salmon for their birthday as well!! I was especially happy because my husband will not eat any seafood unless it's wild. So this purchase was perfect for him. He ate salmon and pears everyday until it was gone. I enjoyed watching him because I have never seen him this happy about food. I will be purchasing again soon because my husband is ready for round two!:-)

Comments about Harry & David Northwest Smoked Salmon:
This was a Fathers Day gift from my sister and her family who knows I Love...Love Salmon...
The packaging was outstanding as the salmon arrived double boxed and in an airtight, vacuum-sealed pouch with no need for refrigeration until opened. The day it delivered the temperature in Arizona was a cool 105 degrees...I opened the salmon in the evening and the first thing I noted was the delicious smoky aroma and that there was some liquid in the pouch...I am used to a drier smoked salmon so this was a first time to taste a more moist smoked salmon...it was salmonlicious...quite simply one of best I have ever tasted because it was moist with a gentle yet striking smoke-salmon flavor.
My girlfriend and I were excited and wanted to try it with different recipes...So far we had it on salad, crackers and toast...check out Emeril Lagasse's Smoked Salmon Tartare on Toast Points on www.foodnetwork.com
Great versatile product...highly recommend!!

Because my kids were sometimes having a hard time stacking the plastic penguins, I made a little board so they could play the game horizontally. It is uploaded here: www.boardgamegeek.com/file/info/38700
I printed one and laminated it- and now they play it like the card game version, but with the normal plastic penguins.

SAN FRANCISCO — Dozens of weight loss and immune system supplements on the market are illegally labeled and lack the recommended scientific evidence to back up their purported health claims, government investigators warn in a new review of the $20 billion supplement industry.
The report, being released Wednesday by the Department of Health and Human Services' inspector general, found that 20 percent of the 127 weight loss and immune-boosting supplements investigators purchased online and in retail stores across the country carried labels that made illegal claims to cure or treat disease.
Some products went so far as to state that the supplements could cure or prevent diabetes or cancer, or that they could help people with HIV or AIDS, which is strictly prohibited under federal law.
Consumers may not just be wasting their money on pills or tablets, but they could be endangering their health if they take a supplement in place of a drug thinking it will have the same effect, the report concluded.
"Consumers rely on a supplement's claims to determine whether the product will provide a desired effect, such as weight loss or immune support," the report said. "Supplements that make disease claims could mislead consumers into using them as replacements for prescription drugs or other treatments for medical conditions, with potentially dangerous results."
The market for dietary supplements — which can include anything from Vitamin C tablets to capsules of Echinacea — is a huge one with hundreds of products. The inspector general's investigation focused on one segment that officials said is booming.
Federal regulations do not require the Food & Drug Administration to review supplement companies' scientific evidence for most of their products' purported health benefits before they hit the market.
The Office of Inspector General found that in numerous cases, when companies did submit evidence to back up their health claims, it fell far short of government recommendations.
One company submitted a 30-year-old handwritten college term paper to substantiate its claim, while others included news releases, advertisements and links to Wikipedia or an online dictionary, according to the report.
Overall, the review raises questions about whether the system is allowing companies to mislead consumers, investigators said, and recommended that FDA ramp up its oversight. The report did not name individual brands or products, and also did not estimate the total number of dietary supplements on the market. Continued...
In response, the food safety agency said it would consider asking Congress for more oversight powers to review supplement companies' evidence proving their products' purported health benefits. FDA agreed that the agency should expand surveillance of the market to detect spurious claims that supplements can cure or treat specific diseases.
Investigators also found that 7 percent of the weight loss and immune support supplements they surveyed lacked the required disclaimer stating that FDA had not reviewed whether the statement on the label was truthful.

Topic: Zakat on Charity Mosque Money Posted: 21 November 2012 at 11:26am |
Asalam aleykum yaa ayuhal muslimun
I have question about Zakat. I believe that if someone even have a year round $100 saved should pay zakat $2.50. My question is our mosque have received charity $5000 to rebuild. From this money we paid some money to buy woods for the mosque. Now, we have $3000 left over before finishing to build the mosque. Should we pay Zakat from $3000 * 2.5% since this amount of the money kept for a year? Jaza kumullahu kheran Ibrahim |

I think the zakah receiver (in this case mosque, I floow school that mosque is a valid zakah receiver) no need to pay zakah.

There is no zakat on $100, as it is far below the minimum amount zakat is payable for, as well as 3K for the mosque, which are also funds for a specific purpose. And Allah Knows Best.

Asalamu aleykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
I have question about zakat on jeweleries. My wife had jeweleries for herself 260 gram. Later she sold all of her jeweleries for $9000. She has been wearing some of her jeweleries for the last 20 years and some it about 5 years. Now, should she pay zakat from this money? If so, for how many years should she pay zakat? Thank you very much Jaza kumullahu kheran Ibrahim |

You can not give your Zakat money to Mosque because it deserves poor and needy or Deni Madrasas.

Step in the shoes of the Dark Knight and save the city of Arkham in the latest batman game- Batman: Arkham City. The game is the sequel to the award winning Batman: Arkham Asylum and continues on the concepts set in the previous game.
Arkham city is for anyone who has grown reading the stories of Batman. The game combines many innovative and interactive features, bringing back the nostalgia that made Batman great. Arkham City is a third-person action adventure game, available for the PS3 platform. The game is rated Teen and can be played anyone above the age of 13.
Synopsis and Features
The story of Arkham City begins 18 months after the events concluded in the Arkham Asylum game. Gotham has changed. The thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds that were once held in a proper asylum, now live in the heart of the city in a maximum security home called Arkham City.
Arkham city is a sprawling new super-prison that is five times bigger than Arkham Island. With a brand-new story and an all-new star cast, Arkham City includes classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe. The game promises enhanced gameplay features and new experiences to make you the Dark Knight of Gotham.
Developed by Rocksteady Studios and released by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, Batman: Arkham City promises a lot more than its predecessor. Fans of Arkham Asylum will have no problem learning the new game system as the single-player game does exactly what the previous game did, only better.
Starting with the core gameplay to counter attacks, Arkham City has a slew of new features that will keep you hooked for hours. You will be gliding from one building to other, fighting a group of enemies, picking locks or doing all at the same time. The Batman game keeps things simple yet thoroughly interesting.
The game features an array of new combos and multipliers. Elements of the game like XP and upgrade system have been tweaked. The new additions in the game include smoke pellets, Cryptographic Sequencer V2 and freeze grenades that help in taking out enemies faster, even if you are in a room with 20 of them. Batman can now bust through windows, use radio frequencies to eavesdrop on enemies for clues and hack certain frequencies to track other people.
The AI has been tweaked, making the enemies stronger and intelligent. They are equipped with new arsenal and come in large groups. The game takes place in many different locations, giving it a more elaborate feel. From the Medical Center, Courthouse to Monarch Theater, you will travel around the city to find out what is going on in Arkham City, Why the Joker is ill, and what are the secrets that threaten the safety of Gotham.

yeah guys this is game is without bonus feature,u will be unable to play Robin and joker Carnival in this flip kart has not yet confirmed it yet,check it in gamespot/pc and amazon
The game is awesome. It brings your dream of being a superhero to reality. From fighting mega villains, all the way down to eavesdropping on obscure guards. Open city environment guarantees enormous replaybility. Lots to do and Joker to bear...Bah cant get better than this. Guys this is the reason we love Batman...Buy this game
Flipkart was prompt in delivering, no issues there. Maybe because i stay in Mumbai.
Angry fans can all preorder other games from somewhere else and see the difference.
Flipkart rocks!!
Hi guys,
If you want to have a complete experience of gaming then the best option would be this one.Be it the graphics,the environment or even the minute details of conversation of the goons & thugs,they seem so real which makes you go like 'whoa!'.The story mode is very intersting except for the loading time which could be a li'l bit frustrating.But mind you,you would have already been lost in the beauty of the city by then(i meant the work of the CG) and swinging from one tower to another taking complete control of the city and giving the worst nightmares to the dangerous minds that have broken free from the asylum.
What makes the game so fascinating is that the game also has side missions apart from the main mission,like you can tap frequency where you hear some one is in deep trouble and that's where you plunge into side mission to save that person.And the kind of entry you make,gawd! your pride as Batman will be beaming like anything.Especially when the goons are terrified and address you like 'Look the Bat's here' or 'Oh my god,i cannot see him'.Of course you 'll be above him the whole time throwing batarangs or shock him with your weapon.Poor guys!
The moves ,the counters ,ultra slow motion for the final blow and the detective mode are all too awesome.Only if they had enhanced it further like make batman pick up any object he finds and use them againts the baddies(eg.Snatching the gun is already available,but using it against them ?) would be even more wickedcool.But i know its ridiculous,coz Batman never works that way or kills anyone.
In simple,it makes you adapt to the game,where you aren't playing anymore but you ARE the caped crusader lurking in the darkest streets of arkham city to kick their butts !
Infact you are the DARK KNIGHT !
for IGN uncharted 3 may be the reason why they play video games but for me personally that would be batman arkham city because this game has got everything for everyone.... a good story? check... great musical score? check...voice acting? check.... intelligent, clever gameplay? check.... n everything else that makes video games great? check.... the game, apart from the main story, allows you to explore the city like any RPG player would and the reward for that delivers when you intelligently solve the riddles and find the riddler trophies giving you an additional in-depth on what's actually happening in and around the arkham city- a feature especially taken from RPG games. then the gameplay? well let me tell you this if you've a controller it'd be a miss to not play this game on "hard" difficulty because controller efficiently allows you to respond timely to the incoming attacks or tricky maneuvering. n i recommend hard because on hard you'll actually calculate situations in front of you before diving into them which otherwise on normal or easy you can handle like "incredible hulk". you'll think which thug to take out first or if there's a group with multiple armed enemies you'll try to figure how to approach and take them out first.... Batman is the kind of a hero which we all wanna be...a human, which can't consider bullets as cotton balls like superman can or jump out of line of an armed thug's sight like spider man, but at the same time a dark knight whose peak mental and physical training alongwith a smart arsenal of gadgets allow him to handle these situations effectively and more believably.
the only issue i have is actually with the software itself which right now is not optimised well.... and 2 or 3 times i've also had bluescreens due to it .. but otherwise it's running fine between 30 to 40 FPS which is more than enough for a third person game like this. just make sure to update all your graphic drivers to the latest versions out there and you're good to go most probably
Hellooooooooo there,can you read me??? Of course you can.he he,see,i have written a "little" review out there,it will be a little doozy but i hope you will enjoy this.So come on little bats,lets start the game.;-)
SOLID PACKAGING and HASSLE FREE INSTALLATION will initiate a great start.The installation process is a bit lengthy and it consumes some 20 GB of your precious space but after all the dark knight deserves this.:)
Simply top notch.If you have a bit more powerful machine with a good graphics card,the beauty of the atmosphere will blow you away.From the cold dark nights to the foggy skies;from the sky-high buildings to the deep silence of the sea;from the vast area of action to the fine detailing of the most beautiful things,each and every field is just perfectly done.Obviously it is not a cry-engine 3 or something like that.So do not expect no deterioration in a closer view but when viewed from a distance or as a whole,the game looks marvelous.
A REALLY DEEP AND ENGROSSING STORY that really gives you the feel of being batman.All the characters are so well placed that they really spice up the things a lot.A LOT OF TWISTS and even emotional scenes are there which will make the tale even more deeper.Do not read the story before you play the game and rest assured to be surprised at the end.(And oh,there is a new playable character this time,the cat-woman who whips out thugs for about 10% of the main story)
Nothing more can be expected from this section.The knight is even more darker with a variety of NEW GADGETS and a BUNCH OF NEW MOVES under his gloves.You will have intense fun while you apply them on your enemies.Very fine tuning of your abilities are possible to bring out the most devastating effects in the tough fight situations.NEWER AND TOUGHER ENEMIES are added this time and all of them will require different take down tactics. Play by brain and you will be rewarded the most.
A lot of SIDE MISSIONS are there.They are not only fun but also are full of xp's. RIDDLER"S CHALLENGES will really take some deep thinking to be solved this time.Still want more????well,the CHALLENGE MODE is back too!!This time with some more rooms to play and some "more" thugs to kill.you be batman or,the woman on the heels,cat-woman.;-)
this just can not be any better. Almost all the character has a definitive voice which really makes them feel more alive. Particularly the batman and the joker has got the most distinctive voice.The way the joker kills while he is laughing is simply terrifying and the way he throws his anger to batman in a wrapper of sharp satire is just simply amazing.Similarly when batman tells "there's always a way out",it really seems that there is.
the game feels better to play for the second time than the first.When the main story is finished you still have a lot of things to do.The whole city is waiting for further exploration.!!!
I mean the way the game depicts the dark knight and the associated events really surpasses most of the bars of the heights set by various comics or movies.Its a game that defines what a game could be or even,should be!!!So come on,get up bats,we expect a little more fight in you!!!he he he...
last but not the least,flipkart delivery was as pleasant as ever.

A small grocery company is making a big splash at a familiar Northridge location.
Los Angeles-based Super King Markets recently opened its fifth grocery store in the former Gelson's space at Plaza Di Northridge at Plummer Street and Shirley Avenue.
And business is booming at the new market with an international flair, thanks to a marketing strategy of low prices, high quality and a wide selection.
Los Angeles resident Nelli Gevorkyan navigated the packed store at noon Wednesday after picking up some fruit and vegetables.
She's a regular at Super King's store on San Fernando Road near Glendale.
"It's like this every day," she said of the packed aisles.
She doesn't mind a lot of company when she shops.
"The low prices, the freshness of the produce, the quality of the meat and the customer service are very nice," she said.
The store opened quietly in late September and held its grand opening last Friday.
The new store is bright with big neon signs identifying major product areas. The floor plan has changed a bit, too. The produce section
The family-owned business started in 1993 and also has stores in Anaheim, Altadena and Claremont. This is the company's first store in the San Fernando Valley.
"We had a lot of requests from customers to open a store in the Valley," said Jake Fermanian, a member of the ownership group and whose uncle and father founded the company.
"We were considering locations in Orange and Los Angeles counties and this just happened to work out for us."
The store has about 230 employees, including more than 30 butchers.
The company client base is a diverse ethnic mix and the surrounding community provides that. And there is a 400-plus unit upscale apartment complex nearing completion on the old Kmart site on Corbin Avenue, within walking distance of the store.
Super King stocks between 20,000 to 25,000 different products, including meats, fruits, vegetables and spices from around the world.
Fermanian is not surprised that the store is gaining traction so quickly.
"We definitely have some brand identification in L.A. People believe in us," he said. "We consider ourselves a destination store, not a typical neighborhood market. In Anaheim we have customers coming up from San Diego."
Meg Major, editorial director at the trade publication Progressive Grocer, said Super King appears to have a good formula.
"It's a really good thing for a neighborhood to get a retailer who understands the needs of the local people. That has a high appeal for the community. This sounds like it's really going over well," she said of the company's business model.
Fermanian is open to having more Super Kings in the Valley, too.
"If the demographics are there and the (population) density is there and there is a parking lot to support a store, we'll definitely consider it," he said.

The Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School is a leader in the study of the law and policy around the Internet and other emerging technologies.
Copyright and Fair Use
A healthy copyright system must balance the need to provide strong economic incentives through exclusive rights with the need to protect important public interests like free speech and expression. Fair use is foundational to that balance. It's role is to prevent copyright from stifling the creativity it is supposed to foster, and from imposing other burdens that would inhibit rather than promote the creation and spread of knowledge and learning.
The Fair Use Project (FUP) was founded in 2006 to provide legal support to a range of projects designed to clarify, and extend, the boundaries of fair use in order to enhance creative freedom and protect important public rights. It is the only organization in the country dedicated specifically to providing free and comprehensive legal representation to authors, filmmakers, artists, musicians and other content creators who face unmerited copyright claims, or other improper restrictions on their expressive interests. The FUP has litigated important cases across the country, and in the Supreme Court of the United States, and worked with scores of filmmakers and other content creators to secure the unimpeded release of their work.

Fair Use during submittal of prior art during patent prosecution: John Wiley & Sons v. McDonnell Boehnen
By Stuart Soffer • April 24, 2012 at 11:06 am
Dennis Crouch today reports on John Wiley & Sons v. McDonnell Boehnen Hulbert & Berghoff. The crux of this case concerns the disclosing and submitting material prior art to the patent office during patent prosecution. When this material consists of copyrighted articles like academic journals, problems may arise when subsequent copies are distributed within the law firm, retaining file copies, distribution of pdf's, and use by a government agency.

Holly came to believe she and the children had No Way Out But One. Read more » about No Way Out But One

A Legitimate Interest in Promoting the Progress of Science: Constitutional Constraints on Copyright Laws
Author(s):David OlsonPublication Date:October 13, 2011Publication Type:Academic WritingThe Supreme Court certified two questions in Golan v. Holder: (1) Does section 514 of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act ("URAA") violate the Progress Clause of the Constitution? (2) Does the URAA violate the First Amendment? This Essay argues that section 514 violates the Progress Clause's requirement that copyright laws "promote the Progress of Science." This is because the statute bequeaths copyright status without in return achieving any net increase in the creation or dissemination of creative works.

Can You Trademark Your Pot?
Date published:August 27, 2012Kal Raustiala and Chris Sprigman, continuing their excellent blogging (soon to be in book form) about markets succeeding in absence of intellectual property, have taken a look at the question of whether or not different brands of marijuana can be covered by trademark. With the increasing legality of medical marijuana, it's not uncommon for different strands to get their own brands. However, as the two note, plant varieties cannot be trademarked, but you can build a brand on top of one. Read more » about Can You Trademark Your Pot?

Publicity rights up in the air
Date published:July 23, 2012The current crop of cases are an important opportunity for an appellate standard, said Julie Ahrens, an attorney and associate director of the Fair Use Project at Stanford Law School. Ahrens filed an amicus brief supporting Electronic Arts in the Hart case on behalf of three nonprofit organizations, including the Digital Media Law Project, and 10 individual law professors. "We're looking for a clear, predictable rule that limits the application of publicity rights and protects free speech rights," Ahrens said.

Intermediary Liability on the Internet - Ashley Hurst - Video
November 6, 2012
The extent to which internet intermediaries such as Facebook and Google should be liable for unlawful content on the internet is currently facing a great deal of scrutiny in Europe. Like in the US, internet intermediaries in Europe are expected to assist in the prevention of copyright infringement. However, they do not have the wide protection against defamation and privacy claims provided by section 230 of the Communications Decency Act 1996 in the US. Over the last few years, they have therefore found themselves being named in lawsuits in respect of user-generated content.

The brown and black herringbone lambswool and cashmere overcoat project is now weaving. I have contacted the men who had expressed interest. Anyone who thinks they might want to participate please get back to me in the next week as there will be a price increase after the initial order. The final price came in higher than expected but I am honoring my original quotations.
We are also ready to launch the mid-weight checked flannel project. The cloth will be a 1/4" alternating light gray and cream checked flannel woven from lambswool in a light-for-flannel 11 ounce weight that will be suitable for odd trousers or an entire suit. I'm going for the suit.
The finished product will look like the trouser in the illustration and be priced at $125 a meter, plus shipping from San Francisco. Email me if you might like to participate.

Cloth Project Updates

Will, I read your website every day, and I learn something new almost every time.
But - and this is not a critique of anything other than changing social mores - there is no way I can wear a houndstooth/checked flannel fabric. I have a pair of lovely (I think) checked, light-weight flannel slacks, and every time I try and wear them my wife laughs me off.
Now, I'm a pretty conservative dresser. I'm 33 years old and work in advertising. Made-to-measure pants from Mr. Ned's, custom shirts from a Hong Kong Tailor, Church's black monk straps, and the occasional navy Paul Stuart Suit, usually with a woven silk tie - that pretty much covers my dress. That alone makes me stick out like a sore thumb.
Just sayin'.
Regardless, I love you site.

I humbly suggest subliminally absorbing the depth of hue of the shirt as depicted by Mr.F for a certain future. Also how well the shade seems to enliven his reddish brown jacket, and interesting split in time and metaphors, if not in suits.
I used to have a glen in this scale and shading. I was nervier, I suppose.
Bon chance! - April 4, 2009 at 12:06:00 PM PDT
- Joe Frances said...
Will, How many meters of material do you think would be necessary for a standard (5'10" height) gentleman's pair of trousers with this great fabric?
- April 5, 2009 at 5:05:00 PM PDT
- Will said...
Joe, 1.5 for certain. Some tailors will only need a meter, but you should know that in advance.
Brook, you have a problem. What else can I say? :-) - April 5, 2009 at 11:05:00 PM PDT
- Joe Frances said...
One more question Will, this fabric, when do you expect it will be produced and ready to ship?
- April 8, 2009 at 8:14:00 PM PDT
- Will said...
Joe, that depends entirely on how quickly a half piece (30 meters) is taken up. I request deposits once there are enough orders and the fabric is going on the loom.

Upson-Lee's Haley Baucom sends a header towards the Lady Trojans' goal. UL defeated Lamar County by a 5-0 score to advance to the Championship Game of the Lamar County Trojan Cup Invitational on Saturday. Baucom and freshman Jordie Rogers each scored two goals in the contest, with a goal from Grace Wolverton sandwiched in between. Akeila Raines finished the game with three assists. The Lady Knights defeated Pike County in the first game of the tournament. The game was tied 0-0 at the end of regulation, but UL won 4-2 on penalty kicks. Twin sisters Haley and Hannah Baucom each made penalty kicks, along with Rogers and Taylor Massey. UL keeper Vanessa Harp blocked a Lady Trojans' penalty kick which helped seal the Lady Knights victory. Upson-Lee will play Griffin tomorrow in a Region 4 contest at Matthews Field. The game is slated to start at 5:30 p.m. The Lady Knights will also play in the Championship Game of the Trojan Cup on Saturday. As of press time their opponent was unknown, but the game will start at 2 p.m. in Barnesville.

(Tom) Morelock, Executive Director The State Universities Civil Service System quarterly newsletter, The System News, will begin a series of articles written by various human resource professionals within the state's public higher education community. This series of articles will be written on various human resource topics and will attempt to display some of the 'best practice' human resource models and philosophies applicable to the selected topic. A brief biographical sketch of each participating writer will also be provided. The series will be entitled "Insight" and will begin with the October, 2004 issue. This new feature is intended to showcase the many progressive human resource programs and philosophies in action through our many campus/agency human resource offices and provide some valuable contact points for the development of similar programs across other campus/agency employers. These presentations are consistent with our statewide mission to champion excellence and facilitate human resource programs that embody current philosophies and incorporate current 'best practice' human resource models. The list of state public university human resource professionals is quite extensive and includes a comprehensive set of credentials and expertise across a myriad of human resource topics.

Why The Video Looks Shaky (Don Ward)
Updated: 06/18/2013 - We did a quick helicopter tour of the Black Forest burn area. Someone asked why the video looks shaky.
Colorado Springs police are investigating a shooting near a downtown bar Sunday morning shortly before 2 a.m.
Police say the shooting stemmed from an argument between two people on the corner of South Tejon Street and East Moreno Avenue, near Southside Johnny's. The suspect pulled out a gun and shot the victim in the shoulder.
When police arrived, they said the victim was alert and is expected to make a full recovery.
Police say they investigation is ongoing and did not have a suspect description available.

What scientific evidence do we have about the first humans?
In recent decades, scientists have discovered more about the beginnings of humanity. The fossil record shows a gradual transition over 5 million years ago from chimpanzee-size creatures to hominids with larger brains who walked on two legs. Later hominids used fire and stone tools and had brains as large as modern humans. Fossils of homo sapiens in east Africa date back nearly 200,000 years. Humans developed hearths for fire, stone points for spears and arrows, and cave paintings by 30,000 years ago. By 10,000 years ago, humans had spread throughout the globe. Genetic studies support the same picture. Humans share more DNA with chimpanzees than with any other animal, suggesting that humans and chimps share a relatively recent common ancestor. Also, the same defective genes appear in both humans and chimps, at the same locations in the genome—an observation difficult to explain except by common ancestry. Genetics also tells us that the human population today descended from more than two people. Evolution happens not to individuals but to populations, and the amount of genetic diversity in the gene pool today suggests that the human population was never smaller than several thousand individuals. Yet all humans, of all races, are descended from this group. Humanity is one family.
What is the genetic evidence for evolution?
Darwin developed his theory of evolution by looking at scientific evidence available in the mid-1800s. Since then, the whole field of genetics has developed, adding a powerful independent line of evidence in support of evolution. Genes show how the physical traits of living things are handed down and modified from one generation to the next. By comparing the DNA of many organisms, scientists can map the relationships between species. This map is in remarkable agreement with Darwin's predictions. The structure of chromosomes and particular genetic sequences point to the conclusion not just of common design, but common descent as well.

St. Matthews, Auckland: Progressive Articles & Videos
May 1, 2009 by Administrator
Filed under Editing-Translation Services
If you are looking for some thoughtful meditations and articles written from a progressive Christian perspective, The Living Hour recommends checking out the website of St. Matthews Church in Auckland, New Zealand. The Church, with a lineage that stretches back to the mid 1850s, wisely points out that it needs a modifier (i.e. progressive) to describe its brand of Christianity because contrary to the human tendency to make sweeping generalizations, being �Christian� does not tell us much about a faith community beyond the probability that Jesus plays a part in its beliefs.
On St. Matthews� Publications page you can find such provocative articles as:
� �Throwing Down the Philosophical Gauntlet: Job, the Holocaust, and Personal Responsibility.
� �May God spare me living in a Christian nation��
� �A Progressive Church: Beyond Evangelical and Liberal Boundaries�
� �Sexuality: Beyond Stereotypes�
Also found on the website are discussions on reincarnation, Buddhism, sacramental sex, and more. To check out these articles please head on over to: St. Matthews Progressive Christian Publications.
They also have uploaded several interesting videos, including why God is irrational and expects us to be to, which can be found at: St. Matthews Progressive Christian Videos. Overall the St. Matthews� site is expertly done and is a worthy model for other Progressive Christian churches to emulate.

Review: 2010 Toyota 4Runner faithfully sticks to the formula it helped create
Toyota has made some serious money over the past couple of decades by making safe, reliable vehicles. There have been a few models, like the Supra and Celica, that have appealed to the enthusiast, but the rest of America hasn't really seemed to care. New Toyota chief Akio Toyoda has promised to change that paradigm, however, pledging to inject new vehicles with much-needed soul. But do we have to wait a few years for Toyota's designers and engineers to come up with something new and exciting? Maybe not. While the enthusiast-inspired products like the FT-86 coupe are still a ways off, ... Read More

Corticosteroids for Nephrotic Syndrome
Side Effects
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
- Usually the benefits of the medicine are more important than any minor side effects.
- Side effects may go away after you take the medicine for a while.
- If side effects still bother you and you wonder if you should keep taking the medicine, call your doctor. He or she may be able to lower your dose or change your medicine. Do not suddenly quit taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
- Trouble breathing.
- Swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor if you have:
- Hives.
- Signs of an infection, such as a sore throat, fever, sneezing, or coughing.
- Belly pain, nausea, or vomiting that won't go away.
- Bloody or black, tarry stools.
- Rapid weight gain.
- Changes in your eyes, including blurred vision or eye pain.
- Muscle cramps, pain, or weakness.
- Changes in skin, including acne or reddish purple lines.
- Increased thirst, especially with frequent urination.
Common side effects of this medicine include:
- Increased appetite.
- Nervousness or restlessness.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
