Wowww snazzy! I like it alot! It's very distinct and I think suits what you're aiming for in the game.
Lux is a first person puzzle game. The game is set in a steam punk/futuristic universe. An unknown force is consuming all light sources throughout this universe. Light has therefore become a commodity, and light-hunters scour the galaxies to collect what little light they can find, for both trade and survival. The player wields 'Tulip' a light-manipulation device. This can reflect, absorb, mix and emit light with a varying degree of focus. Reflecting allows the player to alter the angle and intensity of the light beam. Absorbing allows the player to store two colours in Tulip and discharge these colours of light. The player can also mix the colours, for example if Tulip absorbs Blue and Green light, the player can mix these two creating Cyan light which can then be discharged. This device is used in the completion of puzzles which progressively become more complex. Take on the role of a light bounty- hunter who sets out to discover the reason for the light's disappearance....
Wowww snazzy! I like it alot! It's very distinct and I think suits what you're aiming for in the game.
RGB, lol
Nice and simple. Good job!

It's been an interesting week, test driving a 2011 model Ram 3500 Laramie crew cab, decked out with a Dakota contractor body on the back – and the kids were decidedly sad when "Big Blue," as they'd dubbed it, had to return home.
[And, as an impertinent editorial aside, I am no doubt CERTAIN that my good friend Steve Myers at Moser Motor Sales in Berne, IN, with have PLENTY to say in terms of how Ford's SuperDuty truck measures up to the likes of "Big Blue." We'll make time for that debate down the road, Sir Steve!]
In terms of mileage, I didn't go all that far – racking up only 130 miles along rural roads and highways in and around Northern Virginia. Yet I wasn't after miles during my test drive; rather, I wanted to see how the truck would perform in wide variety of conditions.
Fuel economy wise, I got about eight to 10 mpg on average with the Ram 3500, without much in the way of payload. Loaded down with tools and supplies, or pulling a trailer, and those numbers will surely drop.
That being said, the Ram delivered a very nice ride with minimal exterior noise, especially from the engine. At highway speeds (in this case 65 to 70 mph), the 383 horsepower 5.7 liter V8 gasoline-powered engine hummed along at 1,800 rpms.
On-ramp acceleration only pegged the tachometer at 2,200 to 2,500 rpms at most (again, without any significant payload) with a nice firm response from the engine when extra oomph was required.
Ride and handling proved exceptional on rural roads, giving the Ram 3500 a very "car-like" feel. The responsive steering also made maneuvering in tight corners (especially when I dropped off a load of donated clothes at the Salvation Army) a breeze as well, making the truck perform far more nimbly than its girth would suggest.
Spending a lot of time in the cab gave me an appreciation for several small but important details worked into the Ram's design.
Of course, with a Laramie trim package, there were a lot of extra goodies (such as the heated steering wheel) that most work fleets won't spec.
But one nice feature proved to the be the electrical outlet plug built into the dash – one that could be activated and deactivated at the touch of a button so the outlet wouldn't remain "hot" when not in use.
Another nice feature: the "bi-focal" side view mirrors, which provided me with two distinct side views of the truck. This proved really helpful when backing up and when maneuvering in tight corners, as well as in traffic – and it's a feature I think will be really appreciated by fleets.
In my view, it's this kind of attention to detail that makes a truck a more effective work tool in a variety of fleet operations.

|Statement by the Chinese Delegation on Item 103: First United Nations Decade for the Eradication of Poverty (1997-2006)
|(12 October 2001)
Mr. Chairman:
The Chinese Delegation wishes to thank the Secretary General for his comprehensive and detailed report on this agenda item as well as for the presentation of the report by the Secretariat. Meanwhile, the Chinese Delegation fully supports the statement by the representative of Iran on behalf of the Group of 77 and China.
The issue of the eradication of poverty has been on the agenda of the Second Committee of the General Assembly for years, regrettably however, poverty remains very grim worldwide. While the positive factors of globalization have failed to benefit the poor, its negative aspects have led to the increase in the population of the impoverished. Facts prove that prolonged poverty and lack of development constitute the root cause of many serious international problems, threatening world peace and development. Constant armed conflicts, social upheaval, rising waves of refugees, the spread of HIV/AIDS, humanitarian crises and terrorism all bear a close relationship to poverty. Without a doubt, poverty eradication serves as a basis for resolving numerous major international problems confronting us, presenting an urgent task for the international community, and it also constitutes the basic elements for the respect for and protection of human rights.
The Millennium Summit reiterates the goal to halve the proportion of the world's people whose income is less than one dollar a day by the year 2015. The current situation, however, allows for no optimism. The gap between the rich and poor caused by the economic globalization continues to widen. There are still about 1.2 billion people living in extreme poverty in the world, with many developing countries continuing to face grim poverty. At present, what merits our increasing attention and concern is the great impact of the terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11 on the world economy, including the economy of the developing countries. According to the World Bank's estimate, due to this incident, next year will witness an additional 10 million people living in poverty in the developing countries.
Mr. Chairman,
Confronting with present grave situation the international community should all the more redouble its efforts and undertake joint actions. We believe poverty eradication ultimately depends on development. The Secretary General explicitly points out in his report, "rapid economic growth is the most powerful means by which countries can achieve higher living standards and reduce poverty". To this end, the international community should formulate corresponding strategies in reducing the widening gap ever intensified by the globalization between the rich and poor, the North and South. In this process, countries should join their efforts and coordinate their actions. In this respect, efforts are required on the part of governments of all countries which should, based on their own specific circumstances, incorporate, as a matter of priority, poverty eradication into national economic and social development strategies, while mobilizing forces of all walks of life to participate in the work of poverty eradication. Meanwhile, the international community needs to provide maximum support to the developing countries, including the increase of Official Development Assistance (ODA) to the developing countries to meet the commitment of devoting 0.7% of the gross national product of the developed countries for ODA; the earnest implementation of the agreement of the Uruguay Round in opening markets for developing countries' agricultural, textile and other products of competitive advantages; the overall fulfillment of the HIPC initiative and resolution of the great debt problem of the middle income developing countries. All these are of critical importance to the achievement of poverty eradication by the developing countries.
Mr. Chairman,
The United Nations plays an extremely important role on the issue of poverty eradication. We are pleased to see that the issue of poverty eradication is high on the UN development agenda. We hope that relevant bodies within the UN system will further bring into play their respective advantages, strengthen coordination on this issue, mobilize all resources, and in close cooperation with the poverty eradication agencies in the recipient countries to ensure their full participation in the formulation and implementation of the aid projects while soliciting their ideas to truly reflect recipient countries' genuine ownership, thereby enhancing the efficiency in fund utilization for poverty eradication and improving the project performance so as to help the developing countries achieve at an early date the goal of poverty eradication and other development goals established at the Millennium Summit.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

Reports that quarterback David Garrard has been telling teammates with the Jets that he's leaving the team have been confirmed by Garrard himself.
While Garrard wasn't ready to talk to Jeff Darlington of NFL.com about what was going on, the veteran did text Adam Schein of Sirius XM NFL Radio with a little explanation. Garrard is leaving the Jets' quarterback competition because his knee, which required an operation after he hurt it with the Dolphins last year, isn't sound enough to allow him to continue.
"Having to call it quits. My knee is not holding up," Garrard wrote. "Continuing to swell after practices. Limiting what I can do."
Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said earlier Wednesday that he'd like to see a quick end to the quarterback competition, something that could be easier to engineer with one less quarterback taking reps during OTAs and training camp. Whether Mark Sanchez or Geno Smith's chances of landing the starting job are helped more by Garrard's departure is up for debate, but the departure of the team's other experienced quarterback would seem to raise the chances that Sanchez sticks around in one role or another this year.

The issues with marriage were not only legal ones, however. As Hypable explains, John Barrowman has changed his mind on the subject of gay marriage over the years. Initially Barrowman was against it, opting instead for a civil partnership.
In 2005, Barrowman clarified his position to The Herald, stating:
People keep asking me if I'm going to do it. The answer is no. I was brought up in a family which believed there was a God who created us. I believe that God created me this way for a reason and he's not a god who hates, dislikes or is against the way I live my life … That said, there is organised religion that says gay men and women are wrong, bad, evil – whatever you want to call it. So why would I want a 'marriage' from a belief system that hates me?
The Sun, Barrowman explained that he sees gay marriage as something he had to take a stand on to combat bigotry.
When somebody is telling you that you cannot do something, when somebody is spewing vile rhetoric and calling us a threat to heterosexuality, it's time to take a stand. And we decided if that means getting married, then that's fine. We want to have the choice to get married. Christianity to me is about loving every human being, getting on with your fellow man, being kind and generous, which Jesus was. I was created by Jesus and I'm not having any bigot telling me that God did not create me.
John Barrowman uploaded this video just before the ceremony.

Older brother gives Marsh belief
CRICKET: Mitch Marsh is using the resurgence of older brother Shaun as inspiration.
Mitch Marsh, 26, has been recalled to the Australian squad for the third Ashes Test in Perth next week.
The all-rounder is a strong chance to play at the WACA Ground, coming in after Shaun in the batting order at No.6 if given the nod over an out-of-sorts Peter Handscomb, who has scored 62 runs in four knocks.
The older Marsh returned to the side for the first Test, scoring a half-century in Brisbane before a unbeaten ton to be named man of the match in Adelaide.
Mitch Marsh said it was "always special playing for Australia with Shaun".
"The one thing I learnt from Shaun is that he's just solely focused on his own game now," Mitch said.
"When you're playing cricket for Australia there are a lot of distractions outside the inner sanctum but (Shaun) is just really concentrating right now and it's great to see."
Mitch Marsh has played 21 Tests, the last in India in March, with Shaun, when he made just 0 and 13 with the bat, leaving him with an average of 21.
He admitted his self-belief took a battering.
"I certainly lost a bit of confidence," he said.
"But that's all part of playing Test match cricket. You go through troughs. But right now I'm feeling really confident in my game."
Marsh has impressed selectors with his recent form in the Sheffield Shield for West Australia - 402 runs at 44, including an innings of 141.
He is also ready to perform with the ball if needed after shoulder surgery earlier this year.
"I've worked hard over the last eight months to get my body into a position where I'm now playing again as an all-rounder, so that's really exciting," he said.
"As long as I prepare well and do everything I can I know now that I'll be able to do a job for Australia."
Marsh acknowledged Glenn Maxwell was "unlucky" not be included ahead of him after scoring 590 Shield runs this season.
"If they wanted a spinning all-rounder he'd (Maxwell) probably be in," he said.

(Reuters) - Peyton Manning and the high-powered Denver Broncos steamrolled another opponent in their 37-21 rout of the AFC West's Oakland Raiders on Monday.
Manning fired all three of his touchdown passes in the first half to move the Broncos to a perfect 3-0 start.
Denver's unstoppable quarterback finished with 374 passing yards while feeding all of his key receivers as the Broncos seized a 27-7 lead by halftime.
"I think (Manning has) started up where he left off last year, improved on that," Broncos coach John Fox told reporters.
"We've added some weapons. He's an incredible player as far as the way he prepares and communicates to his team."
Oakland's own quarterback, 24-year-old Terrelle Pryor, played admirably but the Raiders (1-2) were simply no match.
Since Manning tied a league record with seven touchdown passes in a season-opening win against Baltimore, Denver have not looked back.
In their latest offensive showcase, Eric Decker had 133 receiving yards, Demaryius Thomas had 10 catches while Wes Welker and Julius Thomas each added touchdown receptions.
"Any inch of mistake that (Manning) sees, he's going to put the ball there and find that hole," said Raiders cornerback Mike Jenkins.
Ronnie Hillman added a 1-yard touchdown run for Denver, who won their last 11 regular-season games last year before losing to the Baltimore Ravens in an AFC divisional playoff game.
The Broncos opened the game by scoring on five of their first six drives. Oakland caught their breath and played better in the second half.
LaMarr Houson sacked Manning to force a fumble in the third quarter and it led to a drive that ended with Darren McFadden's 16-yard touchdown pass to Marcel Reece.
McFadden added a TD run in the last couple of minutes to create the final margin.

Deirdre Maitre received her M.F.A. in film & media arts from Temple University in 2005. She began her career in post-production at Philo Television and Lieberman Productions in San Francisco. Since then, she has worked on many documentary and narrative projects throughout North America. In addition to teaching, Maitre does freelance work on independent films. Most recently, she served as producer and post-production supervisor on Deron Albright's award-winning feature, The Destiny of Lesser Animals, which premiered at New Directors/New Films at the Museum of Modern Art and The Lincoln Center in New York City.
There are three programs within the Cinema Arts department. I teach in cinema production and it's a unique program because our emphasis is on creating compelling short stories. By completion of the program, a student has a body of narrative work that exemplifies a wide array of storytelling technique. The other major component of the program is a very practical, yet important emphasis on effective crew collaboration. Everyone, faculty and staff included, is working together to make the best student films possible from concept to completion. This unique emphasis on story and collaboration keeps the curriculum focused on what truly matters most on a production. That clarity of vision is rare, I think, at the undergraduate level.
I teach film editing and my teaching space is referred to as an edit lab. When I think of a laboratory, I think of a space that is specifically designed to encourage and facilitate experimentation, yet in a controlled, guided environment. In the labs, I focus on project-based learning and experiential learning. Students are assigned film projects that require use of a wide variety of skill and technique, as well as visual and aural textures. They present their work-in-progress regularly in our intimate, lab setting. This allows them to experiment with artistic voice and creative risk-taking without the immediate pressure of a large, anonymous audience. We share our feedback with one another and then problem-solve together. When projects are near completion, I emphasize finishing technique, which is one of my favorite concepts in post production because there are so many options, such as title design, color balancing and grading, motion graphics, compositing and sound mixing. These techniques can substantially elevate the overall production value of a film. But more important, strong finishing technique can really help draw the audience into the story and keep them there, even after the film has ended. It's quite magical to screen the final films. The students have made something that looks and sounds fantastic and that makes me quite proud.
I've worked on many different types of media and what my experience has taught me is that audiences and consumers have options, especially in today's global market. I try to guide my students toward understanding their audience and its needs, as much as possible. Teaching students how to anticipate audience response with each edit, so that the edit serves the audience, is an important classroom goal for me. Practically speaking, as a post production professional it is vital to be fluent with HD work flow and media management. Not surprisingly, I have a background in IT. I bring a lot of experience in systems administration, data management and HD work flow. As a result, I work very closely with editing students on developing an effective file structure and data knowledge-base so they are confident with asset management and data conversion. That said, the technology does change quite rapidly. We could spend a whole semester learning software and hardware, but it is just as valuable to teach students sustainable skills like how to be resourceful, prepared to ask a lot of important technical questions and to research best practices for a given work flow scenario.
Fall in love with the process. A successful, completed, award-winning work is exciting and rewarding, but there is a lot to be gained by learning to love and appreciate all aspects of the filmmaking process, especially the challenges and mistakes. Problem solving, perseverance, ingenuity and the capacity to listen and reflect are especially crucial in post-production.
The degree is versatile and the skills our students acquire make them qualified to work in a broad range of electronic media production platforms. Most of our students do film/video-related internships and/or work part-time in their sophomore and junior years. Those opportunities open the gates for full-time careers in video and film production after graduation. Many go on to work on major motion pictures here in Pittsburgh or Los Angeles and New York City. Some choose to freelance on independent films, both narrative and documentary. A few join the independent filmmaking scene and develop and shoot their own feature films. A growing handful secure jobs in the commercial television/internet industry.

Do you want more traffic ?
Hey, I'm Neil Patel. I'm determined to make a business grow. My only question is, will it be yours?
I really enjoyed this article! It's hard, sometimes when I blog for clients, to think of more things to say. I really appreciated what you said about doing research. This is definitely something I can keep in mind.
Thank you. Alisha.
Thank you Neil! Your blog posts cover exactly what I try to teach my marketing assistants. Because you write them, I don't have to 🙂
Awesome, happy to help.
Hey Neil!
Great content as always, will be great for my research on a new blog post. Keep it up!
Great stuff, Karl.
Hey Neil, ironically I found a mistake where you added the same words right after each other. See below, copied directly from your post:
"What do I mean by "deep?" I'll explain, but first, let me show you why depth
I'll explain, but first, let me show you why depth matters because that will help us understand what "deep" looks like in a real world example.
So THAT is your SECRET! Using the exact same words "I'll explain, but first, let me show you why depth" added 10 extra words to your post! :o)
Ok, so you owe me now. ;o)
It's fixed. Not sure if was a glitch or if someone on your team saw my comment and fixed it. Anyway, great post (as always) and very timely as well. I'm going to be writing some content soon so this info is VERY helpful and actionable! Thank you Neil !!

New java migrations are discovered automatically through classpath scanning at runtime. The scanning is recursive. Java migrations in subpackages of the specified ones are also picked up.
Unlike SQL migrations, Java migrations by default do not have a checksum and therefore do not participate in the change detection of Flyway's validation. This can be remedied by implementing the
Cordani Rafferty Cut Out Platform Wedges 1JEqJu8
interface. Your implementation of the
method can then provide your own checksum, which will then be stored and validated for changes.
If you use Spring, you can choose to implement the
interface instead. It works exactly like the
interface, the only difference being that you now receive a convenient Spring JdbcTemplate to work with instead of a plain JDBC connection.
By default, Flyway always wraps the execution of an entire migration within a single transaction.
Alternatively you can also configure Flyway to wrap the entire execution of all migrations of a single migration run within a single transaction by setting the
property to
If Flyway detects that a specific statement cannot be run within a transaction due to technical limitations of your database, it won't run that migration within a transaction. Instead it will be marked as non-transactional .
By default transactional and non-transactional statements cannot be mixed within a migration run. You can however allow this by setting the
property to
If your database cleanly supports DDL statements within a transaction, failed migrations will always be rolled back (unless they were marked as non-transactional).
If on the other hand your database does NOT cleanly supports DDL statements within a transaction (by for example issuing an implicit commit before and after every DDL statement), Flyway won't be able to perform a clean rollback in case of failure and will instead mark the migration as failed, indicating that some manual cleanup may be required.
Migrations are primarily meant to be executed as part of release and deployment automation processes and there is rarely the need to visually inspect the result of SQL queries.
There are however some scenarios where such manual inspection makes sense, and therefore Flyway Pro and Enterprise Edition also display query results in the usual tabular form when a
statement (or any other statement that returns results) is executed.

'All People Want to Do Is Live Their Lives'
"All people want to do is live their lives." Dr. Suneeta Singh made that simple yet powerful statement during a panel discussion on "Empowering Gender Minorities in South Asia" on March 14, 2012 at the World Bank. Singh, a former Bank staffer and CEO of consulting firm Amaltas, spoke via videoconference from Delhi, India, while Nepal's first openly gay elected official, Sunil Babu Pant, dialed in from Kathmandu.
Pant told the story of how he built a grassroots movement of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered (GLBT) people in Nepal, beginning in 2001. A turning point was in 2007, when the Supreme Court ruled that gay and transgendered people "are natural" and mandated certain benefits and an end to discriminatory laws. Today, the country is drafting a new constitution, and Pant said that if passed, it will be one of the most progressive in the world with regard to the rights of sexual and gender minorities.

Hello everyone. I hope you all enjoyed your holiday season and are like me, getting back into the swing of things. Today was the first day of classes and it seemed to go well for everyone. This semester for me will be filled with classes, homework, and the all important CPA exam preparation.
I signed up for an online course and plan to take my first section within the next 2 months. I applied for the exam over break and am still waiting for approval to schedule my exam. There are plenty of instructions and information on the CPA exam on the NASBA website as well as the AICPA website. Please post comments if you have any question about the process.
The classes I'm taking this semester include ethics (which is a required course for the CPA exam in some states including Texas), business communication and corporate governance. These are mostly electives that I have chosen because I feel they will best help me in my future, on the exam, and in my career. I also am taking two accounting electives that are more audit focused.
Please post comments of any questions you may have about the CPA exam or courses you can take as an MPA, both core and elective courses. Thanks!

You know he's a great hubby when he can honor a secret -- like your baby's gender.
Tom Brady, Gisele Bündchen's husband, found out the sex of their baby. "I wanted to find out and she didn't, so she said, 'Go ahead.' It will be a surprise for her."
"I'm really the only one that knows at this point," said the Patriot quarterback in an interview with WEEI Sports Radio on Wednesday. "It's a pretty good feeling knowing something that no one else knows."
He admits that has been a challenge keeping the secret. Brady told People, he has to be careful with his pronouns, "I always mix it," he adds. "I don't think I've ever slipped. I'm very conscious when I'm saying it."
The nursery at their lux Boston condo is adorned with yellow and light greens. Brady explains, "everything is unisex at this point" for the baby due this month

Perhaps Mike Stevens, with Swiss Financial Services, in Mandeville, La., characterized it best when he called the bull in the current cotton market, "a 9-headed hydra. Whenever you cut off one head, two more appear in its place."
That's an apt description, considering that cotton prices have reached nearly mythological proportions lately. December 2010 futures spiked to $1.51 a pound on Nov 9 before profit-taking took them back into the mid-$1.40s by Nov. 11.
Impressive, but U.S. cotton prices still have a ways to go before achieving the price levels seen in China in 2010. They've reached well over $2 a pound, according to Stevens.
Stevens and other analysts speaking at the Ag Market Network's November teleconference say current and future cotton prices begin and end in China. For example, the news behind U.S. futures surging to over $1.50 came on USDA's lowering of estimated Chinese beginning stocks for 2011 by 3 million bales from the previous month.
This is a big reason why USDA dropped world ending stocks to 42 million bales, a 36 percent stocks-to-use ratio, "which is low by any historical standard," according to John Robinson, Extension economist, Texas A&M University.
The bulls are on the loose in the United States too, according to Robinson, where USDA cut projected U.S. production by 450,000 bales "primarily due to lower production in the Southern High Plains and the two Rolling Plains reporting districts."
Forecast U.S. ending stocks declined 500,000 bales, "which is quite an adjustment this time of the year," Robinson said. "It takes us down to 2.2 bales of ending stocks, which is the lowest ending stocks we've had in 85 years. Just like in the world situation, it provides rationale for continued price strength."
Gary Adams, vice-president of economics and policy analysis, National Cotton Council, said China continues to be the lead bull in the price charge. "While China is the largest producer, largest processor and largest importer of cotton in the world, they are also the biggest area of uncertainty. We don't have a good handle on exactly what the stocks situation is in China. It's got to be a very tight situation.
"What we do know is that over the last 15 months, China has been aggressively auctioning cotton from its state reserves, somewhere around 16 million bales. You have to think this has brought stock levels down tremendously."
Adams noted that USDA's significant reduction in projected mill use in China is an indication that high prices are starting to affect demand. "The numbers we hear certainly suggest that mill use is slowing. That's one thing we really need to watch. If cotton prices are higher relative to polyester prices, can we sustain demand at this level?"
Indian export restrictions
Export restrictions by India are also fueling higher prices, according to Adams. "This is also adding to the price levels we're seeing and to uncertainty in the market as well. There is some thought in the trade that the India crop is slightly larger than the 26 million bales the USDA is currently estimated."
Meanwhile, Pakistan's cotton crop "is not as large as originally stated due to effects from flooding," Adams said.
It all makes for a bullish environment, according to Adams. "It's also part of the reason why we're seeing U.S. export commitments and shipments through October just shy of 12 million bales, a level that is unheard of for this early in the marketing year. The highest we've been in the past is roughly 8 million bales."
Carl Anderson, professor emeritus, Texas A&M University, says there continues to be a wide gap between foreign use and foreign production of about 20 million bales, which has provided plenty of export potential for U.S. cotton. But Anderson warns marketers about the impact of very strong price signals.
"If we have a 10 percent increase in world cotton production and a slight decrease in use, we could play catch up on the supply, stocks and carryover very quickly. We have to be careful in a market like this. When you can see a limit up and a limit down in one day, it's unusual. So don't get too optimistic and wait another day to see what the market is going to do."
Anderson has heard that Chinese mills are moving toward more polyester in their blends. "That's why I'm prepared for a 2 percent reduction in world demand for cotton."
Stevens says traditional signs point to a market that has made a top. "However, not knowing what is coming next from the Chinese traders, one has to be cautious. This bull is like the 9-headed hydra. For each head cut off, it grows two more."
Cotton producer Steve Verett, executive vice-president, Plains Cotton Growers, Inc., Lubbock, Texas, likes the high cotton prices, but is concerned that they might not necessarily translate into higher net income for producers.
"I've been farming more than 30 years, and there's never been a time when prices for commodities increased, and we didn't see a corresponding increase in input costs. Whether it's going to be good for net farm income or not remains to be seen.
"There are some real scary numbers out here on fertilizer prices. A lot of importers have been caught short. With the early harvest in the Midwest, there have been a lot of fertilizer applications which have drawn the stocks down."
Verett added that Texas cotton producers are a long way from locking in high cotton prices for 2011. "This morning, December 2011 was at 94.52, which is certainly a good price. We're hopeful. Corn and soybeans have been enjoying high prices for a few years. The cotton industry would like to be able to take advantage of that too."

At 7:40 on the evening of June 19, after the longest debate in its nearly 180-year history, the U.S. Senate passes the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The vote in favor of the bill is 73 to 27. Thirteen days later, on July 2, the U.S. House of Representatives passes the bill and President Lyndon B. Johnson signs the bill into law that same evening. Five hundred amendments were made to the bill and Congress has debated the bill for 534 hours.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination in a broad array of private conduct including public accommodations, governmental services and education. One section of the Act, referred to as Title VII, prohibits employment discrimination based on race, sex, color, religion and national origin. Title VII applies to private employers, labor unions and employment agencies. The Act prohibits discrimination in recruitment, hiring, wages, assignment, promotions, benefits, discipline, discharge, layoffs and almost every aspect of employment.
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 also creates the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), a five-member, bipartisan commission whose mission is to eliminate unlawful employment discrimination. The law provides that the Commissioners, no more than three of whom may be from the same political party, are appointed to five-year terms by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The Chairman of the agency appoints the General Counsel. EEOC is to open its doors for business on July 2, 1965 -- one year after Title VII's enactment into law.
Next: 1965

fenryr needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 38 designs submitted by 14 freelance designers.
I need a fresh web2.0-looking Wordpress-Theme for a Blog about cellphone and DSL rates. Follow up jobs might ensue.
Hey there, I need a new Wordpress-Theme with logo for a german blog about cell phone and dsl rates: tarif-angebote.de.
I want it to have that web2.0 look .. rounded corners, gradients, etc
I need 4 small Content-boxes on the homepage for "featured offers"
And I need a new logo to go with the design. It doesn't have to be spectacular, just fit the general theme of the site. And it needs to have the sitename (tarif-angebote) in it.
The theme should be around 1000px wide with about 700px for the main content and 300px for the sidebar.
Just use any theme you feel suitable as a basis.
I don't really prefer any colors as long as it looks fresh. So i leave that up to you
I need new wp-designs regularly so this might result in more jobs for you :)
- coded wp-theme
- black/gray text on white ground
- 4 small content-boxes on the homepage (above the blog entries, below the header)
- a horicontal navigation-bar just below the header for the most important links
- widgetized sidebar is a plus but not a must
- 2 columns
- good looking h2 and h3 tags for the content-area, as they will be used there
- black background

Today is November 1, 980 days to go till my release on July 9, 2014. There are two possible hopeful scenarios that could shorten that wait. One is the petition to "Pardon Marc Emery" which appears at www.WhiteHouse.gov in the "We The People" section. On September 22, that petition initiative website was launched and any petition that obtained 5,000 signatures within 30 days was promised a response from the White House.
The threshold of petitioners for an acknowledgement by the White House was raised to 25,000 signatories by early October, the exception being those petitions that had been started under the original rules. The petition to give me a pardon (based on the explicitness of DEA's statement that my crime was legalization advocacy and financing, no mention of distribution of seeds) reached 7,500 signatures in 30 days and qualifies for a response, which is due shortly.
A pardon is desirable for two reasons: it would free me immediately, and it would permit me to return to the United States to speak to those supporters in America who would wish to meet me and hear me speak. Once I am deported from the USA on the "early release" completion of my sentence on July 9, 2014, I will be barred from entering the United States at any future time.
I'd like to thank all those who took the time to sign on to the petition. Newspapers and radio in Canada covered the petition to have me pardoned, and they've been asking Jodie for news about the response from the White House when it comes. Those who posted the links on their Facebook or Twitter get special thanks. The required 5,000 signatures took only nine days to achieve. Tommy Chong made a charming video for Pot TV urging people to sign on to the petition. In fact, I was speaking to Tommy on the phone only moments before he made the video, which can be seen on YouTube, as he came by the Cannabis Culture Headquarters to check in and help with the petition drive.
The other possibility for an earlier release is for me to be transferred home. In March 2013, 16 months from now, I can make an application to the US Department of Justice requesting, once again, a transfer back to Canada to serve out my sentence. Both the US Department of Justice and the Canadian Ministry of Public Safety must approve this request. If I had been accepted for transfer earlier this winter when I first applied, I would have been eligible in Canada for release on parole in on November 16, 2011 as a first-time non-violent offender, which means I qualified for release at 1/3 of my sentence in Canada.
As you know, the US Department of Justice refused my transfer application in April this year, even though I qualified under all 26 criteria set out and had over 23 elected representatives from all levels of Canadian government endorse my transfer. It's thought that the DEA and the Canadian government under Stephen Harper were both hostile to my transfer.
If my transfer request is delivered in April 2013 to the US DOJ, and accepted in June 2013, it would then be necessary for the Canadian government to accept the transfer – which, if approved, might see me back in Canada by November 2013 to February 2014. I would qualify for immediate statutory release upon my return to Canada, but I would be on parole until February 2015. If I am required to wait until the completion of my sentence here (July 9, 2014), there would be no parole requirements when I am delivered to Canada.
The Justice Department, in refusing my transfer to Canada last April, made reference to the seriousness of my crime (advocating legalization), law enforcement opposition, and the work I was doing on behalf of my fellow inmates and my unrelenting public criticism of D Ray James federal prison, a private prison concentration camp for foreigners that I was housed in before I was transferred to Yazoo. The reasoning for the refusal of my transfer back to Canada dispels any doubt about the politics of my imprisonment.
Despite President Obama's promise of "Hope" and "Change", things aren't getting better for the cannabis culture under his administration. Evidence can be seen in the official response to the most popular petition, which gathered 74,169 signatures urging the legalization of marijuana, and seven other cannabis-related petitions that reached the threshold for a response. This answer came from the White House Drug Czar Gil Kerlikowske, former Seattle Police Chief, in the expected unsatisfactory way:
What We Have to Say About Legalizing Marijuana
By Gil Kerlikowske, Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy
When the President took office, he directed all of his policymakers to develop policies based on science and research, not ideology or politics. So our concern about marijuana is based on what the science tells us about the drug's effects.
According to scientists at the National Institutes of Health- the world's largest source of drug abuse research – marijuana use is associated with addiction, respiratory disease, and cognitive impairment. We know from an array of treatment admission information and Federal data that marijuana use is a significant source for voluntary drug treatment admissions and visits to emergency rooms. Studies also reveal that marijuana potency has almost tripled over the past 20 years, raising serious concerns about what this means for public health – especially among young people who use the drug because research shows their brains continue to develop well into their 20's.
Simply put, it is not a benign drug.
Like many, we are interested in the potential marijuana may have in providing relief to individuals diagnosed with certain serious illnesses. That is why we ardently support ongoing research into determining what components of the marijuana plant can be used as medicine. To date, however, neither the FDA nor the Institute of Medicine have found smoked marijuana to meet the modern standard for safe or effective medicine for any condition.
As a former police chief, I recognize we are not going to arrest our way out of the problem. We also recognize that legalizing marijuana would not provide the answer to any of the health, social, youth education, criminal justice, and community quality of life challenges associated with drug use.
That is why the President's National Drug Control Strategy is balanced and comprehensive, emphasizing prevention and treatment while at the same time supporting innovative law enforcement efforts that protect public safety and disrupt the supply of drugs entering our communities. Preventing drug use is the most cost-effective way to reduce drug use and its consequences in America. And, as we've seen in our work through community coalitions across the country, this approach works in making communities healthier and safer.
We're also focused on expanding access to drug treatment for addicts. Treatment works. In fact, millions of Americans are in successful recovery for drug and alcoholism today. And through our work with innovative drug courts across the Nation, we are improving our criminal justice system to divert non-violent offenders into treatment.
Our commitment to a balanced approach to drug control is real. This last fiscal year alone, the Federal Government spent over $10 billion on drug education and treatment programs compared to just over $9 billion on drug related law enforcement in the U.S.
Thank you for making your voice heard. I encourage you to take a moment to read about the President's approach to drug control to learn more.

Kerlikowske says "science" and "facts" will guide the policy, not "ideology" and "politics", then proceeds to ignore any science and medical comparison and sticks entirely to politics and ideology – the ideology of prohibition!
The petition request to legalize marijuana, and the request for my pardon, both need to be seen in regard to certain facts. Not only have Canadian Prime Ministers Paul Martin (pot brownies), Pierre Trudeau (hashish), Kim Campbell (marijuana), and Premiers Ralph Klein (of Alberta), Jean Charest (of Quebec), Glen Clark (of BC), and Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson – plus many others – variously smoked, grown, eaten, and enjoyed marijuana, but a host of prominent elected US officials have also done the same, including President Obama, who commented in his book "Dreams from My Father – A Story of race and Inheritance" that "Pot had helped, and booze: and maybe a little blow when you could afford it… and if the high didn't solve whatever it was that was getting you down, it could at least help you laugh at the world's ongoing folly and see through all the hypocrisy and bullshit and cheap moralism."
Read Kerlikowske's response to the legalization petition and see if you can spot 1) hypocrisy, 2) bullshit, and 3) cheap moralism.
The hypocrisy is that the health hazards of marijuana, even the trivial ones he mentions, pale in comparison to the health hazards of hundreds of legal, sanctioned consumed substances like tobacco, alcohol, prescription drugs, fatty foods, over the counter medicines, etc. There are no known fatalities from cannabis consumption, making it one of the safest consumables on the planet considering peanuts, sesame seeds, numerous flowers, nuts, seeds, gourds, fish, shellfish, and other foods can kill certain people from allergic reactions. Sugars, salts, preservatives and additives in our food chain are much more hazardous than cannabis.
The bullshit is that for being involved in cannabis you can serve 5, 10, 15, 20 years or even life in prison, a punishment that is barbaric and extraordinarily cruel because all the hazards inherent in cannabis use result from the government policy of prohibition of cannabis. All the cartel violence, the full prisons, the lucrative corruption of police, prisons, teenagers, the poor, the blacks, Latinos, all who get seduced into the world of growing and selling cannabis do so because of the prohibition on the legal production, sale and use of marijuana.
In my drug abuse prevention class here at Yazoo prison, I asked this question; "Would any of us be here, guards or prisoners, if all these substances were sold legally at retail outlets throughout the community? Isn't this a tragedy and crisis manufactured exclusively by government policy? Doesn't the US criminal justice system put us behind bars for these huge lengths of time because that's precisely the intent? Doesn't the evidence of the last 40 years show anyone looking that prohibition is designed to fill prisons, bankrupt the nation, create gangs and gang violence, diminish our civil liberties and consolidate a police state?"
Needless to say, this line of questioning was regarded as heresy and I was advised to be less vocal about these ideas.
To support this prohibition you have to support evil behavior, the virtual destruction of peaceful society, the depraved violence we see afflicting Mexico, Columbia, our inner cities, the Nazi-like violence by urban SWAT police (over 100 SWAT raids happen each and every day in America), the packed prisons, and the despair and utter heartbreak of millions of American families. Since 1970, over 12 million Americans have been incarcerated for drug use, production or distribution. Each of these 12 million had dozens of family members and loved ones who are also greatly impacted.
What, one must ask, is the point in all this? How can President Obama continue such a prohibition policy when two decades of books, news reports, statistics, dozens of former Presidents throughout the world saying "end prohibition", millions of horror stories and packed jails scream of the failure of prohibition to achieve any desirable goals. In fact, the obvious road of prohibition is to make a decaying police state out of the entire planet!
Prohibition is a corrupt, barbaric and intentional deception. Those, like Kerlikowske, who support it, absolutely know this. President Obama knows the prohibition policy is the death of black America. One in four black Americans are entwined in the revolving doors of the US criminal justice system – in prison, on probation, supervised release, parole, on bail – almost exclusively for drug and drug-related offenses. Certainly 80% of the inmates here at Yazoo federal prison are black Americans, virtually all here for drugs, and guns with drugs. It is the new Jim Crow laws brought to bear after the Civil Rights Act in 1964 finally did what the Emancipation Proclamation did not do100 years later – free the black man and ended slavery.
But there is still slavery. It's here. Prison USA.
At the risk of saying it will take a great white man, Ron Paul, to free millions of black Americans in November 2012, the petitions to legalize marijuana and pardon me give President Obama a chance to re-affirm what he believes. Is it the Obama who wrote "Dreams of my Father", or the Obama who is ramping up the drug war in medical marijuana states to new extremes?
It is the DEA press release issued on the day of my arrest that President Obama is directly endorsing if he keeps me in jail. The DEA press release is specific about why I am in jail, and explains clearly that if you talk about and work towards legalization successfully, they'll invade your country and bring you to their prohibition prison system.
The DEA press release did not ever say I was arrested for selling seeds. The word "seeds" was never used in the DEA press release. What was mentioned over and over again was legalization. Use the word "seeds" in the same press release with "drug kingpin" and what you have is absurdity – albeit a cruel depraved nightmare absurdity that we all get to inhabit, but especially me, and others imprisoned like me.
The DEA tried to ignore and refute the press release but the truth had been exposed. If the reasons the DEA gave for jailing me were so corrupt and embarrassing that they pretend that release doesn't exist, what does this say about a President and government that agree with the same immoral and anti-democratic edicts that keep me imprisoned? Answer: it says everything.
Under federal legislation in the United States, the DEA is mandated to use whatever means necessary anywhere in the world to combat any person or organization that promotes the legalization of marijuana. It said so right at the bottom of the DEA letterhead the press release was sent out on.
When police smash into homes and terrorize taxpayers and families, shooting people and pets, all over something the majority do not believe should be a crime under law, then we should remember that our leaders, Prime Minister Harper, President Obama, and Mexican President Calderon, favor this sort of carnage and abuse by allowing it to continue.
We must ask ourselves what kind of government would enter into perpetual war against its own people. What type of government denies sick people a medicine, a plant that improves their lives and diminishes misery? What kind of government obstructs scientific research into the truly incredible and scientifically documented healing properties of marijuana? The answers to these questions are obvious and not pretty.
The DEA, who no doubt was the principal bulwark against my transfer to the Canadian prison system, tells us in their own hackneyed words (see DEA Tandy's press release once again) that I was jailed for expressing an idea. The expression of that idea – the legalization of cannabis – is specifically mentioned in that DEA mandate we've all read. This federal laws gives the DEA the legal right to go anywhere in the world to combat legalization initiatives and activities, in the same way the CIA has authority to overthrow governments around the world (Iran 1953, South Vietnam 1965, Chile 1973, Panama 1984). The DEA has offices and agents active in over 90 countries, including Canada, Mexico, Colombia, and Afghanistan.
Essentially the DEA has been given eternal wartime powers on a global scale to fight the demonized herb cannabis. According to US law, any country can be invaded to stop any threat of legalization, just as any state or city or town or US community can be. Most of the world is unaware of this fact. So if Obama refuses the petition to pardon me, he reaffirms this mandate of manifest destiny when he thus says I'll stay in a US federal prison for expressing an idea.
Only an evil nature can support, approve and perpetuate evil acts. And as Canadian Justice Minister Rob Nicholson said about new laws requiring mandatory minimum jail sentences for as few as six marijuana plants, "this is just the beginning." If putting a Canadian in jail for 6, 9, or 12 months for six plants is "just the beginning", try to imagine the "end".
These sadistic politicians and their lackeys do not inhabit the same reality that we civilized people do. Until we understand and publicize this fact, we give them victory by default. Remember, majorities in Canada and the United States support the legalization of marijuana. At least 55% of Canadians want legal marijuana, and now 50% of Americans want legal marijuana.
This is why we fight. It is the right, we are the majority, the enemy is pure evil, and we have a world to rescue from darkness.

The festival is broken in to just a few main billings. If you pay for one, then you can see all of the films that play in that section. These sections include the following:
- Peloton at the Arts Fest - $5 (7pm)
- Thursday Night Films - $10 (7pm - Close)
- Friday Night Films - $10 (7 pm - Close)
- Saturday Afternoon Films - $10 (1pm - 4:30pm)
- Saturday Night Films - $10 (5 pm - End)
While there may be several films that play during those times and each film will have its own time slot scheduled, one ticket will gain you access to all of the films in that block, so come early and enjoy.
While we do not only want films you can show to kids, we do want to only be presenting films that address difficult subjects tastefully. You can't make a documentary about violence or drug abuse without showing the effects of them. We just ask that if your story involves topics that are viewed as "edgy", then we will only be considering them if we feel they are being presented in a tastefull manor without using graphic or gratuitous methods to address them.
We have over the history of the festival shown many films that would get an "R" rating, but we have always felt that those films have been made with great respect to the art form and portray a message that promotes positive change or healthy discussion about the topic or film.

Soft & moist orange & chocolate flavoured butter cake! these 2 flavours matched very well indeed! You see the deep yellow section of the cake? You must be thinking I've added a lot of yellow colouring to the batter! heee but is not! It is actually Turmeric Powder!! Initially I've added only 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder to the batter, I find it not deep enough therefore added another 1/2 tsp to it. No worries at all as it does not affect the taste of the cake , the orange flavour is still very distintive. So why not use turmeric powder as natural colouring instead of artificial food colouring in your bakes next time? :D
- 175gm butter
- 110gm sugar
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 175gm plain flour
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder, sifted
- 2 tbsp soymilk
- 3 tbsp orange juice
- 1 tsp turmeric powder (optional)
- 1 orange zests
- Beat the sugar and butter together in a bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs, beating well after each addition. Sift flour, baking powder & salt over and fold in gently.
- Divide the mixture in half. Add the cocoa and milk to one half, stirring until well combined. Flavour the other half with the orange juice, turmeric powder (if using) and grated orange zests.
- Place spoonfuls of each mixture into a lined 9" x 5" loaf panand swirl together with a skewer, to create a marbled effect. Bake in a preheated oven at 160 deg cel 35mins or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

TradeDangerous is a profit optimizer that runs locally on your computer, using a local database of price data you enter as you fly (or by importing data from other commanders). It is an Open Source project to which a number of commanders have now contributed (thanks esp to ShadowGar, Gazelle, Smacker65)
Back in 1984 I scribbled hundreds of pages of price notes. Naturally enough, when I started playing ED I pulled up notepad and started typing out interesting prices... It quickly became unwieldy and so I started knocking out this little python script to figure out the best trades.
By best trades I mean much more than just which item has the most markup from this station.
TradeDangerous is designed to do everything from simply calculating what's hot at Dahan to very efficiently solving the "NP" problem of "exactly how rich can I get in 10 stops in a type 6 with a 12 ly jump limit starting with 42 credits?"
For complicated routes, a "checklist" mode will walk you through each step (dock at Dahan, buy 100 fish, jump to X, jump to Y, dock at station, sell, refuel, buy ...). And for X52 users it will even display the steps on your MFD as you go.
More importantly, TradeDangerous is Open Source - I've written it so that other developers can make use of the extremely fast and efficient calculation engine to build tools.
See the "CHANGES.txt" file for more updates.Code:==== CHANGES ==== (New changes occur frequently, I only update with significant releases here) v7.3.0 Jul 05 2015: . (ahamid/kfsone) "fromfile" support for command options: - All commands will now look for a "fromfile" specifying default arguments for that command .tdrc_{cmd} e.g .tdrc_nav or .tdrc_shipvendor, - One argument-position per line, "--ly 20" is two lines but "--ly=20" is one, - The fromfile argument is replaced with the arguments in the file, - Looks in the current directory and then your user directory, - You can also use your own fromfile as an argument prefixed with a '+': trade.py nav +myfrom.txt . (Fred Deschenes) "buy" now supports categories e.g. trade.py buy --near sol metals,food - to find food cartridges, use foodc or "food cartridges", Jun 20 2015: . (kfsone) Lots of new systems (until EDSC broke), . (kfsone) Minor optimizations, . (kfsone) Tweaks to edscupdate, v7.2.0 Jun 14 2015: . (Orphu) Created an import plugin that uses Frontier's Mobile API, - See README.md for more help, - Use "trade.py import -P edapi" to get started, - Able to optionally upload prices it pulls to EDDN: trade.py imp -P edapi -O eddn . (maddavo) Fixed/merged lots of new systems, v7.1.2 Jun 6 2015: . (Dry411s) Diamondback prices . (Orphu) Imperial courier price . (kfsone) Maddavo Data import/refresh v7.1.1 May 25 2015 .

(kfsone) #236 Unicorn (erh, Unicode) - Added code to trade.py to catch wild unicode errors, esp under windows: Windows console is NOT utf-8 based, which means that when TD tries to print a unicode character, an error occurs. I've added code to catch this early (TradeEnv.uprint) and code to catch it late (trade.py), - Changed various file openings to "utf-8", . (gazelle) Changed display of "adding/removing ships" in shipvendor sub-command . (kfsone) #234 Change display of "adding ship" in maddavo plugin . (kfsone) Fix submit-distances/edscupdate generating duplicate extra-stars. v7.0.3 May 09 2015 . (kfsone) "run" command: - Added "--show-jumps" (aka -J) - Jumps are no-longer shown by default, - Request #233 Jumps now include distance - If start and end station of a hop are in the same system, display "Supercruise to ..." instead of a jump - When a hop involves multiple jumps using --show-jumps, it will tell you the direct and total distances, . (kfsone) Revamped the intro of the README.md (http://kfs.org/td/source) . (gazelle) Corrected unicode system names (Argetlamh etc) v7.0.2 May 05 2015 . (kfsone) Added "--demand" option to "run", filters based on demand. CAUTION: Items with "?" demand will be ignored when using --demand. If you want to enter demand values in the update tool, you will need to use the "--use-demand" (-D) option of "update". . (kfsone) Fixed #231 Exception when using --quantity in buy/sell . (kfsone) --supply is now an alias for --quantity in "buy" . (kfsone) --demand is now an alias for --quantity in "sell" . (kfsone) Fixed #232 'supply' values ignored by "run" v7.0.1 May 04 2015 . (kfsone) Minor fixes from forums . (kfsone) Fixed issue causing some users to get a numpy import error + Extra data and Rares v7.0.0 May 03 2015 CACHE BUILD REQUIRED (trade.py buildcache -fi) "requests" packages is now required if you want to use "maddavO"s plugin . (Avi) README.txt has been replaced with README.md . (kfsone) "import" command (non-plugin behavior) - Restored the default behavior of forcefully overwriting existing data with values from the .prices file and deleting items that aren't listed in the import. - Added "--merge-import" option: only imports entries that are newer than existing local data and only removes entries when there is an explicit entry for it with 0 prices. - Changed "--reset" to "--reset-all" because it's a scary command, . (kfsone) Consistency of various commands: - "demand" refers to what a station will buy, - "supply" refers to what a station is selling, - Changed several command options from "--stock" to "--supply", - "--black-market" is now consistently spelled with a hyphen (or just --black for short), - "--bm" now has two hyphens in all uses (it was -bm in some cases), . (kfsone) "market" command: - Only show the age of items once, . (kfsone) "nav" command: - Fixed --refuel-jumps - Added --pad-size to limit which stations will be listed/refuelled at, . (kfsone) "buy" and "sell" commands: - Added "--black-market" (--bm) option, - Added "--avoid" option (accepts station and/or system names) . (kfsone) Performance: - Re-unified the StationBuying/StationSelling tables into StationItem, - Added StationBuying and StationSelling views, - Minor refactor of getTrades to reduce the pathalogical near O(n^2) behavior it used to match buyers to sellers, - Improved performance of nav command slightly, - "import" plugin now uses the "requests" module, which means that it will automatically download/use compressed .prices files when they are made available. E.g. maddavo's .prices files now require upto 5x less bandwidth, - Added code to allow experimental use of numpy,

TD is a best profit calculation system that runs locally on your computer, designed to enable other programmers/power-users to easily build on it.
Running locally allows it can do much more work finding you that best trade. It can do much more than just tell you the highest value trade between two stations (which you might not even be able to afford!) It will find the load that makes the absolute best use of your cargo space and credits.
Better still - it can project that forward and calculate many hops for you, and then pick the best sequence: It may be most profitable to take 100 Gold from A->B, but if there's nothing worth buying at B, your next hop is a waste of time. And it takes the money you're going to make into account. When you have only 10,000 credits, it might be lucrative to Clothing A->B and Grain B->A, but if you've made 5,000 credits already, why aren't you picking up Fish B->C and then using the additional credits to allow you to start running Dom. Appliances C->A etc.
Because TD runs locally, it can figure out the full deal for you.
All of this is built in a modular way so that if you can easily pick up the TradeDB or TradeCalc modules and make your own front end to the data and to the calculation system.
TradeDangerous doesn't come with an installer - so it's not as easily accessible as it could be, yet. To get it running you'll need Python 3.4.1 installed.
Then, grab the latest code and data from BitBucket (https://bitbucket.org/kfsone/tradedangerous or for short: http://kfs.org/td/source).
Alternatively, you can use "git" to fetch and update it. Command line users can use "git clone firstname.lastname@example.com:kfsone/tradedangerous.git", or if you're not that adventurous, you could download Atlassian's "SourceTree" GUI and use that.
For more setup instructions, user guides, etc, please see our wiki: http://kfs.org/td/wiki
