Irons v Spurs tickets
Welcome home Rambr0!
Tickets at £150 sound v v pricy if you ask me and you run the risk of being denied entry if they're not the real deal. I tried to get tickets for the match through the THFC members site but they've sold out :-(
If it's on the box, best bet is to either watch fromthe comfort of your own home or get down the nearest pub with Sky/ESPN and bag the best seat in the house.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Gotta agree with KM Ram....150 sheets sounds a bit wobbly when you might end up getting a knock back at the turnstile too.
Mind you ...who's to say your not loaded and 150 sovs is mere pocket change!!
Youd probably pick up a cheaper one from a tout for one of the home ends if you can stomach it.

Day of tout crossed my mind E-Y, but the thought of being in the "Wrong End" yet again would be enough to make me spit me chips out (done it v Arsenal at both WHL and Highbury...done it v Man U about 3 times AT HOME!!...the company I keep eh).
Guess I'll bag the idea and go with the pub option (sigh).
As for being filthy rich (no) not even the monied want to get duped out of their hard (or not so hard) earned cash.
Thanks for the feedback...I'll probably be wandering around the ground for a bit of atmosphere (and maybe a tout)

Musicians stage tribute to America's first professional composer
Even if you haven't heard of Stephen Foster, you've heard his music. "Oh! Susanna" and "Camptown Races" are among the first songs a child hears and learns. Unforgettable melodies, and their place in the public domain, ensure that they have endured, in schools, in toys, in movies and commercials, 160-plus years after Foster wrote them.
Foster is thought to have been the country's first professional composer, and his songs were immensely popular during his lifetime. But the music publishing market soured during the Civil War, and Foster died Jan. 13, 1864, at 37, struggling with a fever and a head injury in his final days, with just 38 cents in his pocket. »Read Full Article

The perfect joke present for friends because it's hilarious, but also something they'll actually use. Plus the cape is an added bonus.
This was a gag gift for a 60TH birthday gathering and it "went over" great.
Gave these as a gift to my friend and he loves them! They're hilarious. Also the cape is removable with velcro.
Funny, hilarious, made great gifts. I am going to buy more.

I'm struggling with the same thing. My son is done according to the doctor but I still see that he has a bit of a flat spot on the back right of his head. I can keep going longer if I want but he only improved by .5mm in the last 4 weeks so I don't think we'll see much improvement going forward. He has come a long way but I want it to be perfect and I don't know that it ever will be.

I don't think striving for perfection should be the goal with the helmet. No one has a perfect head shape and I'm content with improvement from where we started this process. What I have heard and read is that a lot of the facial assymetry fades with growth and around 3 years is gone.
Posted 02/08/2013
Our Lo wore helmet for almost 2 months since he was 5M. We just had an appt 2 days ago and practitioner said we could call it done or wear 2-3 more weeks as he almost outgrow the helmet. Honestly I can see his head shape round out a lot but still not perfect. I went to another location hanger while I was visiting my parents in So cal, they told me my Lo would probably need a 2nd helmet. The one here didn't mention that at all. Also my Lo forehead is bulged one side. The helmet helps big but it's still uneven. Anyway I think we will just let him do 2 more wks n that's it.

ATLANTA (AP) -- Lt. Colonel Charles "Chuck" Dryden, one of the last surviving World War II pioneering black pilots known as the Tuskegee Airmen, has died in Atlanta. He was 87.
Dryden died on Tuesday of natural causes, according to Roger Neal, a spokesman for the National Museum of Patriotism in Atlanta. Dryden was on the museum's board of directors.
In 1998, Dryden was inducted into the Georgia Aviation Hall of Fame.
Dryden served 21-years in the military and retired in 1962. He was also a professor of air science at Howard University.
Dryden's autobiography, "A-Train: Memoirs of a Tuskegee Airman" was published by the University of Alabama Press in 1997.
Dryden has three sons and is survived by his wife, Marymal Morgan Dryden.

Study on the longitudinal–torsional compound transducer with slanting slots105(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.426717View Description Hide Description
The longitudinal–torsional compound transducer with slanting slots is studied. The compound transducer is composed of a sandwiched longitudinal ultrasonic transducer and a transmission cylinder with slanting slots. The equivalent circuit for the longitudinal–torsional vibrating system is derived. Based on the equivalent circuit, the input mechanical impedance and the resonance-frequency equation for the compound system are obtained. The effect of the slanting angle of the slanting slots, the position of the slanting slots, and the geometrical length of the slanting slots on the resonance frequency of the compound longitudinal–torsional system is analyzedtheoretically and experimentally. Experiments show that the measuredresonance frequencies are in good agreement with the predicted results.
Elastic contact problem of the piezoelectric material in the structure of a bolt-clamped Langevin-type transducer105(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.426704View Description Hide Description
Bolt-clamped Langevin-type transducers (BLTs) are widely used in various fields of industrial application of high-power ultrasonics. One of the most crucial points in designing a transducer of this type is estimation of the bearing stress imposed by clamping on the interface between the metal block and the piezoelectric element. This prestress, which compensates for low tensile strength of the piezoelectric materials used, must be larger than the dynamic vibratory stress at the interface between the components in high-amplitude operation. Precise estimation of it is virtually impossible, owing to an intricate elastic contact problem. However, with the use of the unique finite-element-analysis system developed by one of the authors, approximate solutions of the problem have been obtained. A BLT design based on the results of the prestress calculations is proposed. The results of its experimental verification have also been reported.

and now lee trundle has been told he has no future....what the hell is going on? on the plus side mcindoe has gone, i still predict a relegation dogfight
kevin. i could have written that myself, i am getting to thinking that i am the only one who can see that lee johnson is in fact holding us back.he is taking up the shirt of many better midfielders we have had or have now ie, noble williams skuse carle , all better but no chance if johnson is fit, gary will put 3 or 4 in and juggle midfield rather than just leave him out thus hiding him. we desperatley need a strong midfielder who can dictate, and have done for ages but that would mean dropping his son and it wont happen so for me gary is not picking our strongest side available, i txt geof twentyman every friday nite through season saying that but he says if lee johnsons name was different we would not be saying it . thats right if his name was not johnson he would not be anywhere near championship football,i dont see any other clubs after him and only time without his dad he didnt last 5 mins (hearts). truns sat behind front would be better . marvin is a workhorse not a creator so get a creative player in now. this will be a defining season for gary i think we will struggle
lee trundle is a quality player who hasn't been given a chance to shine in his true position, he has a fantastic touch, takes a brilliant set piece(not given any chance to do so at city) just because he doesn't run his @#$% off like a workhorse, johnson won't play him(instead he sticks with his son, who is his achillies heel, his son, can't tackle(quite important in central midfield) can't go past a player, can't head the ball, rarelypasses further than 2 yards) can't take a free kick..in fact he is a waste of time, the captain got dropped last year for accusing him of hiding on the pitch..ITS TRUE he's awful he loses possesion far to often) lee trundle won't get a chance to shine under gary johnson FACT I am a massive admirer of GJ but have always said his judgement is clouded when it comes to his son, many believe the team sheets are pre printed and last year they always looked like this
ORR CAREY McCOOMBE Mcallister
------ ELLIOT JOHNSON Mcindoe
Maynard Adebola
expect no change this year(well apart from adebola)
we will be going down
this year, it should be... we always concede
ot been a bad year, another bad march april, same as last year, we have conceded so many late goals in the last 12 games, which has cost us a playoff place,
i can see noble, elliot, adebola, john((thankfully) possibly trundle(if someone wants him) weale(better than basso) and orr leaving this summer
and hopefully lee johnson
well done lads
better luck
next year
yet another casualty in a midfield where the managers son will never be dropped, the list reads, carle, trundle, noble and probably skuse next who has played a blinder all season, we will not be going anywhere unless he drops his son and that greedy bugger mcindoe
midfield should be trundle on the left, elliot, skuse, williams
we will not win anything for as long as we have such a weak link
good luck david noble, no doubt you will come back to haunt us some day

He didnt drop his son at yeovil either but i agree trundle is quality
i meant a permanent move lol
i'll be in a permanent mood!
gutted to lose him on loan and a permanent mood will probably follow
he is miles better than mcindoe who shoots at every oppurtunity( 8th highest shot taker in the league and the worst goals to shot ratio)
trundle takes on players and rarely loses the ball
mcindoe very rarely takes on players and loses the ball often
still he wont drop his son either
i am a great fan of gary johnson and i am very thankful for how far he has taken us, but i feel he needs to change the midfield before buying another striker!!!
Well Kev; 6 points over the Xmas Period naturally helps.
Let's see if Styvar can do the business for us but he's going to need time to settle.
Unfortunately; because Mr Lansdown and Mr Johnson are so secretive with informing the Fans how much money we have to spend on improving the side; it's difficult to say who we can buy without knowing how much you got to spend.
It's like me saying to the Wife; go and book a holiday however I'm not going to tell you what our budget is.
Lansdown and Johnson has to be more open with the Fans; he will earn more respect that way and we will have more clarity on what the Reds spending budget really is.
Once we are aware of this and of the wages constraints then we could target the relevant players.
It would be good to have some Premiership experieinced type players but can we afford them?
Phillips - Birmingham
Beattie - Sheffield United
Ehiogu - Sheffield United
Caldwell - Burnley
so who would you buy?
i think both noble and trundle are good enough, but i think both will leave in jan
Sorry Kev.
Not good enough; Not strong enough; although I would give Noble and Trundle 6-8 games on the spin.
We need Championship quality players Kev; at least 5 or 6.
don't you think its time we changed the line up
orr carey mccoombe mcallister
williams noble elliot trundle
maynard akinde
subs, adebola, fontaine, weale, skuse, wilson(b)
no time for stern john...too lazy
lee johnson...not up to this level, can't head the ball or tackle or pass further than 4 yards, loses possesion far too often
what do you think

After the 4-1 drubing at the weekend all we can put it down to is a bad week we all have them. I know Gary will have the boys ready for the visit to Southampton come on lads put the record straight. Dele and Lee Trundle should start we went wrong changing the line up come on lee another bit of magic please my fav player by far show them how to do it.

Character Clues
Character Analysis
Direct Characterization
Since Utopia is essentially one long discussion between friends, we get some pretty straightforward depictions of what people are like. If you're often traveling around Europe the way More is, having solid connections with people and knowing who's trustworthy would have been particularly important. We can't be that surprised, then, when Peter Giles is described in this way:
"I hardly know a young man of more learning or better character. Apart from being cultured, virtuous and courteous to all, with his intimates he is so open, trustworthy, loyal and affectionate that it would be hard to find another friend like him anywhere." (1.9)
Pretty direct, huh? Case closed.
More just can't get enough of his word games, and that extends to names of his characters. In fact, it's a safe bet that if they aren't a representation of an actual, historical person, their name is some kind of pun. Let's take our good friend Hythloday, our narrator and Utopian explorer. His name means "speaker of nonsense" in Greek. So, are we supposed to think he's dumb? Not quite. Instead, it should put us on guard about the "facts" Hythloday is telling us, as well as about his own extreme opinions. Just because he thinks he's always right, doesn't mean we have to.
Speech and Dialogue
It shouldn't come as a surprise in a book that is almost entirely dialogue that we learn a lot about our characters through how they speak and react. Take Hythloday, who has the most to say in this book. Even when he's arguing about something factual, we can tell he's the kind of person who doesn't let something go easily if he believes it's important, even to the point of coming across as a bit rude. A good example of this is his reply to the lawyer when they're having dinner at the Cardinal's house: "'Oh no, you don't, you won't get out of it that way," he says, totally cutting down the lawyer's response. If you're going to argue with this guy, you need to know your stuff.

Warm Bodies
by Isaac Marion
Warm Bodies Theme of Love
Since humans knew we had hearts (maybe when a saber-toothed tiger clawed one out of a caveman or something), we've associated those hearts with love. In Warm Bodies, R the zombie still associates it with love, but the problem is, his heart no longer beats. He listens to some of the world's greatest love songs (no, not Captain and Tennille), and hopes to one day feel his heart beat again. Once he finds Julie, it does, and one of his favorite love songs takes on a new meaning: "All You Need is Love." Ain't that the truth?
Questions About Love
- Why is it necessary to R for the person he loves to have a name?
- How does love end up curing the zombies of their, well, zombie-ness?
- Would R have known what love was if he hadn't eaten Perry's brain?

Skip to comments.McCain hints at reelection run with fundraising event (concerned retirement will age him)
Posted on 01/10/2014 7:49:22 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) is hosting a $1,000 fundraiser in Washington, D.C., next month, providing a hint that he will run for reelection in 2016.
McCains office confirmed the fundraiser to The Hill while reiterating that the Arizona senator has not made a final decision about running again. His office said he will be prepared regardless.
Buzzfeed first reported the fundraiser, which will be held Jan. 28 for his first DC re-elect reception.
McCain has said he is strongly considering a run for reelection in 2016, after he joked last year this term could be his last in the Senate.
The former GOP presidential nominee also hosted a fundraiser in New York last month. In that invitation he asked donors to join him while I consider running for reelection to the U.S. Senate.
The 27-year veteran of the Senate won his last election in 2010 with 60 percent of the vote, and had a little more than $1.1 million in cash on hand in the third quarter last year.
During a New York Times profile published in December, McCain expressed concern about how retiring might affect his health. He is 77 years old.
My grandfather actually flew home from the peace-signing on the Missouri and died, McCain said. I have seen people age dramatically when they go into retirement.
He won't be missed.
2016. Who's going to run against him?
This man is completely INSANE. Completely and certifiably INSANE.
Worried about getting the shakes from Meet the Press withdrawal.
I think they take a secret oath in the Senate that the goal is to go directly from the Capitol bldg to the mortuary.
he needn't fear retirement,
his brain is already long dead
McCain is a megalomaniac.
It's not about what is best for this country—it's what is best for McCain. Got it.
He's, "concerned retirement will age him." I'm concerned he will continue to serve as President Obama's butt boy.
Everybody should show up at McCain events and make a big show of presenting a huge 4' wide check to his opponent.
Any way we can get him to go back to his home state of Panama and run there?
And unfortunately Arizona will probably re-elect this old fool since they benefit from entrenched cronyism.
I will do all in my power to support the Conservative that defeats this progressive traitor.
Where is a old sage full of wisdom in the GOP like Barry AUH20 that told RMN "Dick it's time to go"?
If they re-elect the flaming rectal orifice the Arizona voters should be exiled!
I'm sure lots of Democrats will donate...
Is Neo-Democrat McCain planning on running as a full-fledged "Wacko Bird" Democrat next time?
Gonna use Congress as his retirement home. Will play ALONG TO GET ALONG!
We should ALL be focused on TERM LIMITS with out them we will
continue down this road! These fools all come out of supposed "SERVICE" millionares!
If retirement would hurt his health, can't somebody make him an ambassador to Somolia or something?
If he's 77 now, then he will be 80 in 2016. I hear Steven Segal is interested in Arizona Politics.
I can't imagine even the insane voters of AZ electing this demented troll again.
I agree...McCain needs to just go.
Who's more insane, Señor Juan or the AZ GOPe voters who will nominate him yet again?
Nonetheless, the word "insane" means deranged, and deranged means ...
Think about it.
His Naval career has never been questioned here by me.
Yet, his post prisoner life is clearly that of an insane madman. Two separately distinct period in his life. You can equivocate meanings about what insane means, but that does not mean anything with respect to his last couple of decades disservice to this country. He's crazy, period.
Go look at his recent Mideast trip and see who he hooked up with. He's a nutball.
Yeah, well Benedict Arnold was a patriot too, before he wasn't.
McCain's hatred of America won't let him retire. He wants to help Obama and then Hillary usher in 100 percent destruction.
Good luck with that. From Yesterday:
Maceman ... Recommended reading ... Kenneth Robert's historical novels Arundel and Rabble in Arms ... along with Benedict Arnold, Patriot and Traitor by Willard Sterne Ranndall.
I bought the latter book at West Point, and enjoyed seeing a tribute to Arnold in the WP Museum that credits Arnold with winning the final battle at Saratoga, where General Gates kept himself two miles away from the battle on a hilltop ... where Arnold violated orders, jumped his horse over the compound wall and rode to lead the winnning charge into the British command post. Arnold was badly injured in that episode, but refused to have his leg removed, making him a permanent cripple who was later financially screwed by Congress over his expenses in an earlier battle on Lake Champlain (at Valcour Island, where Arnold's boat sank and his records were lost) where the British invasion Fleet was turned around ... delaying the British invasion for a year.
Retire to Mexico, the country of your loyalties, McCain.
GTFO of the USA you hate and seek to end.
He'll have to run on the Democrat ticket if he expects to get more than one electoral vote!
He's not just a RINO. He's a catroon version of a RINO.
He's so quintessentially RINO-esque that I wouldn't be surprised to see him in a black & white 1930's short with Betty Boop.
...You know, the ones that have animated musical instruments that go into the bedroom to kill the children.

Saturday came and went and nobody picked up my vehicle. Then Monday came and went and it was still not picked up. I then called several times and could not get an answer nor could I get anyone to return my call. I called again and eventually spoke to someone named Sally. I told her I wanted to cancel my order. Sally sounded suprised and told me that the truck was in Boston now and was on it's way to pick up my vehicle as we spoke. I told her that was fine. I found out that there was in fact no truck and that the so called "dispatch department" just rings to her home.
I cancelled in writing and by phone. According to Universal's policy you have to cancel within five days to get your money back. Sally was lying saying the truck was in the city to prevent me from cancelling my order so they could keep my money. I also checked with a different company who said that nobody had picked up the bid from Universal.
I called back several times to get my deposit back. I eventually got through to somebody claiming to be the owner. He would not give me his full name but eventually said it was Jake Stevens. This person spoke English but had an accent of some type. Possibly Hispanic or middle eastern. He advised that deposit was non refundable even though their own contract said it was.

Anyway I got this line from a guy claiming to be Jim Taylor from Capital One. Whose operator # was 789456 that I had been preapproved to recieve their $2500 "Capital One" Visa. Well I've heard of Capital One and had recently been turned down for a card so I felt safe. This guy went on for few minutes about all the benefits like 0% APR, No fee for cash advances, etc.
When I said I would consider his offer. He got really pushy and said I had to act within 72 hours so he talked me into a check by phone transaction and promised I would only be charged 29.95 and I would recieve my card with the information to activate it in 10 to 14 days. Instead I recieve a packet full of junk and a lousy application. I also read that they intended to debit my checking account for $49.95 and $99.95 for processing and membership in their club. I NEVER authorized this. So I go to my bank and they had only taken the $29.95. I was able to put a stop on all EFT's preventing anymore unauthorized debits.
These guys were slick.
1. They actually called themselves Capital One not Capital First
2. "Jim Taylor" Hmmmm inspired by musician James Taylor maybe.
3. Operator # 789456 - look at the numerical keypad on the far right of your keyboard and read the top two rows of numbers.
4. My bank statement did not say Capital First. The debit on my account was made by 866-892-6018.
Deny these bastards any further access to your checking account.and stop Electronic Fund Transfers. This will help insure the only debits that come through are hand written drafts with your signature. Then fill out a fraud affidavit and the bank will reverse the transaction for you. You only have 60 days to do so.
Capital First will give you the run around for weeks to get you past the 60 day cutoff so don't bother trying to contact them.
No legit credit card company will ever phone you and request account numbers and automatic debits.
If you feel you are being scammed get as much of their info as you can, but divulge NONE of your own.
Then tell them they are commiting a federal offense and you have every intention of contacting the FBI and the FTC, take note of how quickly they hang up.

This paper presents a unified and simple treatment of basic questions concerning two computational models: multiparty communication complexity and GF(2) polynomials. The key is the use of (known) norms on Boolean functions, which capture their approximability in each of these models.
The main contributions are new XOR lemmas. We show that if a Boolean function has correlation at most \in \leqslant 1/2 with any of these models, then the correlation of the parity of its values on m independent instances drops exponentially with m. More specifically:

 For GF(2) polynomials of degree d, the correlation drops to exp (-m/4^d). No XOR lemma was known even for d = 2.

 For c-bit k-party protocols, the correlation drops to 2^c \cdot \in^{m/2^k} . No XOR lemma was known for k \geqslant 3 parties.

Another contribution in this paper is a general derivation of direct product lemmas from XOR lemmas. In particular, assuming that f has correlation at most \in \leqslant 1/2 with any of the above models, we obtain the following bounds on the probability of computing m independent instances of f correctly:

 For GF(2) polynomials of degree d we again obtain a bound of exp (-m/4^d).

 For c-bit k-party protocols we obtain a bound of 2^{-\Omega(m)} in the special case when \in \leqslant exp (-c \cdot 2^k). In this range of \in, our bound improves on a direct product lemma for two-parties by Parnafes, Raz, and Wigderson (STOC '97).

We also use the norms to give improved (or just simplified) lower bounds in these models. In particular we give a new proof that the Mod_m function on n bits, for odd m, has correlation at most exp(-n/4^d) with degree-d GF(2) polynomials.

But looking at the end of this part: I had others he might have had, young ones, old ones, virgins, widows, whatever he wanted. No, Lord Hoster would not hear of it. Sweet words he gave me, excuses, but what I wanted was to get rid of a daughter. Who was the widowed daughter he could've offered to Lord Hoster?

Slavery, Thralldom, Polygamy, Andals, First Men
History of Westeros replied to Mithras's topic in The World of Ice and FireDefinitely agree that the early days are too mysterious to take a strong position either way. Thus, I find your position reasonable despite it differing from mine. We agree on most of the points, anyway. Also agree that there was probably more gender equality in the early days given the axe symbology and the equivalent number of female faces of god. I tend to agree with Ser Lupus that "bedwarmer" is highly dependent on context. A bedwarmer in a slave society is almost certainly a slave. In Westeros, I agree it is a lot like a salt wife with a few differences. Such is far more likely to be an actual love match, like Tytos' case or even Shae's (I'm not saying both loved each other, to be sure. Tyrion loved Shae, not vice versa. Tytos loved his bedwarmer, but we can't be certain about her).

Slavery, Thralldom, Polygamy, Andals, First Men
History of Westeros replied to Mithras's topic in The World of Ice and FireMithras, Thanks for pointing me to this thread, it's a very enjoyable read. One quibble I have is how you seem to have assumed that bedwarmer means, or at least heavily indicates, "slave". The truth seems to be that bedwarmer sometimes means slave, but definitively does not always mean that, however: Shae: "That too. I didn't like scouring his pots no more than I liked his cock in me." She tossed her head. "Why can't you keep me in your tower? Half the lords at court keep bedwarmers." Ramsay: "She smells of dogshit. I've had enough of bad smells, as it happens. I think I'll have your bedwarmer instead. What do you call her? Kyra?" Catelyn: Catelyn doubted very much that Lord Walder had said any such thing, or that he had ever lost his heart to beauty. The Lord of the Crossing had outlived seven wives and was now wed to his eighth, but he spoke of them only as bedwarmers and brood mares Kevan: It was not unknown for a widowed lord to keep a common girl as bedwarmer … but Lord Tytos soon began seating the woman beside him in the hall, showering her with gifts and honors, even asking her views on matters of state. These 4 quotes are literally half the mentions (8 total) of the word "bedwarmer" in all the sources not counting SSM's. (standard asearchoficeandfire.com search) So we're left with the quote about the enslaving the Ibbish and nothing else (I'm not forgetting the Wolf's Den etc, there's just no way to know which culture or cultures that was, though I agree Andals are possible). Perhaps the Andals saw the hairy men as subhuman and that helped justify enslaving them. So I think this is where we're at: you believe the Andals were slavers. I think it's a fair conclusion but I consider it to be far less likely than you do, it seems. I believe their anti-slavery attitude came from being neighbors to the Rhoynar, (who were far more advanced), and as opposing ideals to those of Valyria. Andal and Valyrian culture have so many polar opposite traditions that I have a hard time seeing it as coincidence. (and we know for a certainty that the Valyrians enslaved Andals, and the Ghiscari may have as well). Faith of the Seven: anti-slavery (knighthood says protect the weak), anti-sorcery, anti-incest, anti-polygamy, pro-monarchy, not open (oft-hostile) to other religions. Valyrian Freehold: pro-slavery (enslave the weak), pro-sorcery, pro-incest, pro-polygamy, anti-monarchy, open to all religions.
Errors in the WOIAF
History of Westeros replied to Queen Rhaenyra's topic in The World of Ice and FireAgree, a biased source or a mistaken assumption is where I'm leaning as well. I suppose I should be open to the possibility that slavery was part of the Andal ancient past, but I really doubt it despite that anecdote from TWOIAF. I'll explain: Nearly all the kingdoms/realms/nations are static. Most seem to have an early development period where things get worked out, but after that they stay put in terms of ethics, trade, religion, technology etc. Westeros has been in this quasi-medieval state for eons. Qarth has been the same for eons. Slaver's Bay. The Free Cities. The Dothraki of four hundred years ago are essentially identical to the ones now in basically every way possible, etc etc. There are shifts of power, conquests, political upheavals, and extinctions... but not many cultural changes. Lorath is perhaps an exception that comes to mind, and there are others. Balon/Euron's dad tried to change the Ironborn and had some success, but once he died Balon tried to bring back the Old Way. In addition, the Andals were less united than most cultures, at least the ones who came to Westeros during the early waves. It's hard for me to accept that ALL the Andals gave up slavery unless it was a major part of the Faith of the Seven. Otherwise, surely some Andals would enslave (such as First Men armies they defeated), and others would not. But there's zero hint that the invading Andals enslaved a single First Man. If it indeed has been part of the Faith since its inception (since they hated/feared Valyria this fits very well, and the ideals of Knighthood are, in many ways, the exact opposite of Valyrian ruling ideals... but that's another topic altogether). So the Andals abandoning slavery is possible but the more I think about it, the more problems I find.
Errors in the WOIAF
History of Westeros replied to Queen Rhaenyra's topic in The World of Ice and Firec'mon now. Not saying you're wrong but you should know better than to say something without posting evidence/proof. :) Where is this stated? (apart from here). We're told at least a few times that slavery is an abomination to both old gods and new. The Faith of the Seven existed back when the Andals invaded Ib as shown the quote I posted.
Rhaegar, we hardly know ye? (Lyanna, Elia, Aegon, PtwP)
History of Westeros replied to Lord_Pepsi_Cupps's topic in General (ASoIaF)Hey LPC, great post and thanks for the mention. Your core point that we know way less than Rhaegar did about what he was doing, and that we should perhaps reserve judgement or at least keep our own ignorance in mind is very strong. It's hard for me to imagine a scenario where he comes out of this looking like a good guy (though I don't think he looks like a bad guy either) but GRRM has a better imagination than me, and probably most of us :) When we learn the truth (or as much of it as we're given) I'm guessing it might make sense, but it also might become even more contentious. GRRM loves to write about the human heart in conflict and it sounds like Rhaegar had some HUGE conflicts in his life. The prophecies & his father's horrible reign being the biggest ones, but not the end of the list.
Errors in the WOIAF
History of Westeros replied to Queen Rhaenyra's topic in The World of Ice and FireStandard disclaimer re: "sorry if this has been posted already" I came across a curiosity in a recent re-listen of the book. "Others followed the mazemakers on Lorath in the centuries that followed. For a time the isles were home to a small, dark, hairy people, akin to the men of Ib. Fisherfolk, they lived along the coasts and shunned the great mazes of their predecessors. They in turn were displaced by Andals, pushing north from Andalos to the shores of Lorath Bay and across the bay in longships. Clad in mail and wielding iron swords and axes, the Andals swept across the islands, slaughtering the hairy men in the name of their seven-faced god and taking their women and children as slaves." The Andals don't take slaves. This is only reference to such and there's plenty to indicate the opposite. This is pretty easily dismissed as a maester error rather than an author error, but it does seem to be an error either way.
The ASOIAF wiki thread
History of Westeros replied to Onion Knight's topic in Wiki of Ice and FireOn the Daeron the Drunken page: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Daeron_Targaryen_(son_of_Maekar_I) appears the following line: "He also told Ser Duncan about a dream he had. A great red dragon would fall on Ser Duncan, dead, but the knight would walk off alive." The word "red" should be removed. Daeron's dream did not specify a color for the dragon, and that makes it seem like some sort of red/black dragon (i.e Blackfyre) reference. GRRM doesn't seem to have even invented (or fully invented) the idea of the Blackfyre Rebellions until after the Hedge Knight.
Errors in the WOIAF
History of Westeros replied to Queen Rhaenyra's topic in The World of Ice and FireIn addition to SFDanny's comments, I'll add that Prince has several meanings, but it never means "heir". The simplest definition is "close male relative of the royal family" or something similar. Bran & Rickon were Princes after Robb became King in the North, for example. Tommen was a Prince at birth, not because Robert died, etc.

The Wiki-Timeline Project [Calculations]
History of Westeros replied to Rhaenys_Targaryen's topic in Wiki of Ice and FireFirst, great work on the squires/knights/pages. That's useful stuff. Elaena lived a much longer life than her sister Daena Since we've been trying to figure out if Daena was alive during her son's famous rebellion, this is helpful. It seems she was not, she'd have been ~51 when hostilities broke out. Unless Elaena lived to be 70+ or so (to be fair, this is certainly possible) it's somewhat doubtful Daena was alive when the Blackfyre rebellion broke out. Any idea how long Elaena lived? She certainly outlived all her husbands. For Jon and Jeyne, I definitely agree they were born before Elaena's first marriage. Interestingly, she had 4 of her 7 children after age 35. It's said she had no kids with Michael Manwoody, but it seems like she probably couldn't have done so even if she wanted to. Quite likely too old by then.

Solutions for Chapter 8
The answer is the map. It should look something like this:
The total area of land found is 21,066 pixels × 30 × 30 m/pixel divided by 1 million m2 per km2, or about 19.0 km2.
Note: There are many potential small differences in technique in this problem, such as whether one chooses to use "<" or "<=" in the Raster Calculator conditions. Hence the final area value may vary as much as 10% from the report given here. If the map is similar, then the problem has probably been done correctly.
Method: Although it has many steps, this problem is a straightforward Boolean overlay analysis.
➢ Select the private land from vegetation and convert it to a Boolean raster
➢ Calculate slopes from the topo30m, and use the Raster Calculator to find the areas with less than 20 degrees slope.
➢ Create an aspect map from the topo30m, and reclassify it to 1 for aspects between 90 and 270.
➢ Calculate a straight-line distance grid from the roads, and use the Raster Calculator to set areas LESS than 500 to the value 1.
➢ Calculate a straight-line distance grid from the streams, and use the Raster Calculator to set areas MORE than 100 to the value 1.
➢ Reclassify the the landcover raster based on the Covertype field and give any category containing "Forest" a 1.
➢ Use the Raster Calculator to&all of the Boolean grids together to get the final answer.
➢ To find the total area, examine the attribute table of the output to determine the number of pixels, multiply it by the pixel area (30*30), and divide by 1 million to convert from m2 to km2.

Don't do it.4Dec 18, '13 by JustBeachyNurseLoss of job, report to BoN, perhaps notice to AHA. Damage to reputation, ineligible for rehire & likely unemployment. Risk to patient lives if you have a false credential and no training. Possibly losing your eligibility for professional liability/malpractice insurance.
Is it worth it?3Dec 18, '13 by classicdameGet fired. Maybe face BON reprimand or suspension due to unprofessional behavior. Maybe face lawsuit or criminal negligence if patient dies in your care.

Google accounted for more than six of 10 online searches in the United States in November, more than triple the amount of its closest rival Yahoo, a Web metrics firm said Tuesday.
Google's share of the market rose to 65.1% from 61.84% in the same month a year ago, Hitwise said. In October, Google had a 64.49% share.
Yahoo Search was a distant second last month with 21.21% of searches, followed by Microsoft's MSN Search, 7.09%; and Ask.com, 4.63%. The remaining 46 search engines in the Hitwise rankings accounted for 1.96% of searches.
Yahoo, Microsoft and Ask.com dipped in market share from October, according to Hitwise. Compared to a year ago, Yahoo was down 1.22%, and Microsoft 2.73%. Ask.com's share increased 0.4 %.
Search engines continued to be the primary way Internet users navigated to sites within key categories. Travel, entertainment and business and finance showed double digit increases in their share of traffic coming directly from search engines.
Health and medical had the highest share of traffic from search engines at 44.64%, while business and finance had the least at 17.04%.
Google's core search business is remarkably profitable. In a recent report, financial analyst Henry Blodget found that Google's core business of advertising linked to search probably had better than 75% operating margins in the third quarter, a level that only its rival Microsoft could ever hope to match.
Google also booked free cash flow of $1.1 billion, more than any other media company. In addition, the company has grown to a $16 billion global business that is still growing at 50% per year, according to Blodget.

Picture: Ed Sheeran - 2013 MTV Music Awards held at the Barclays Center - Arrivals - Brooklyn, New York, United States - Monday 26th August 2013
Ed Sheeran has addressed reports he is dating Ellie Goulding after they were spotted holding hands, seemingly confirming he enjoyed a short-lived romance with the singer.
The British stars sparked rumours of a relationship after they were photographed getting cosy together in the audience at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York City last month (Aug13).
Goulding was quick to play down the reports, tweeting, "I love that holding hands with my friends means we're an item. In that case I am in many relationships. Lover not a hater. What the f**k."
However, in an interview with Washington radio station Click 98.9, the Lego House hitmaker suggests he was indeed romantically involved with the Burn hitmaker.
When quizzed about Goulding, Sheeran explains, "Normal people don't hold hands if they're just friends. It was going on, and now it's not."
DJ Brad Nolan then pointed out that the Vmas were not long ago, to which Sheeran replied, "I know, I know... She's a really cool girl, she's very talented. She's had a number one single for three weeks in England now, so it's all going well. We just tour a lot."
The singer went on to insist he doesn't hold hands with other female friends, like his tour mate Taylor Swift: "I haven't even been pictured with that many women. I'm on tour with (Swift). There's never been a picture that's come out (with Swift) - if you can find a picture of me and Taylor holding hands or whatever... You won't be able to because it doesn't exist!"

National editor's pick of the top news stories in the nation and world at this hour:
Obama welcomes Iranian moderation; Rouhani skips lunch
President Barack Obama welcomed Iran's apparent pursuit of a "more moderate course" in a speech to the U.N. on Tuesday, saying he was open to a diplomatic solution to the standoff with Iran over its nuclear program. Amid speculation that Obama and Iranian President Hasan Rouhani would meet briefly, perhaps at a luncheon Tuesday, officials said Rouhani would not be attending the luncheon after all. Obama said Rouhani's "conciliatory words will have to be matched by actions that are transparent and verifiable." Rouhani was scheduled to address the General Assembly on Tuesday afternoon, and his speech will be closely watched for signs of the moderation that was so sorely lacking in his lightning-rod predecessor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Obama also addressed the conflict in Syria, saying the U.N. must be prepared to impose severe consequences if Damascus does not make good on its agreement to surrender its chemical weapons.
Brazil president rebukes U.S. over surveillance
Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff excoriated the United States Tuesday over its surveillance programs, telling the U.N. General Assembly that U.S. intrusiveness is a "grave violation of human rights and of civil liberties." "In the absence of the respect for sovereignty, there is no basis for the relationship among nations," Rousseff said. "Friendly governments and societies that seek to build a true strategic partnership, as in our case, cannot allow recurring illegal actions to take place as if they were normal. They are unacceptable." Last week, Rousseff canceled a state visit to the U.S. in a show of anger over U.S. surveillance programs run by the National Security Agency. Rousseff said the NSA collected economic and strategic corporate data, as well as messages by Brazilian diplomats, including to the United Nations, and from her own office. She also said Brazilian citizens' personal data "was intercepted indiscriminately." Rousseff said she has demanded an apology from the U.S. and assurances that the electronic snooping will stop.
Americans, British woman among attackers at Kenya mall
Two or three Americans and one British woman were among the al-Shabab militants who attacked a shopping mall in Kenya, the foreign minister said, as it remained unclear Tuesday whether the siege was nearing an end. Militants said hostages are alive and fighters are "holding their ground," despite the Kenyan government's assurances that it was in the final mop-up stage of the operation. Explosions and gunfire rang from the Westgate Mall in Nairobi throughout the day Tuesday, and smoke rose from the building. Authorities said some 65 people were missing, and the city morgue was braced for the arrival of a large number of bodies. Three Kenyan soldiers were also reported killed, bringing the known death toll to 65, not counting attackers.
U.S. denies citizenship under phantom Mexican law
For more than 20 years, U.S. immigration officials rejected Sigifredo Saldana Iracheta's claims to be a U.S. citizen, citing Article 314 of the Mexican Constitution on out-of-wedlock births. The only problem is the Mexican Constitution has no such article. The error appears to have originated in 1978 and has been repeated many times to refuse citizenship to people who were legally entitled to it because one of their parents was American. Saldana's case was resolved earlier this month, when the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed the government's explanation of a "typo" and ruled that he had been a citizen since birth. The error, the court said, had been "perpetuated and uncorrected" by the Department of Homeland Security.
Snake on a plane grounds 370 passengers
You'd think if anyone could handle the sight of an 8-inch rat snake, it would be the Aussies. But when the pencil-thin stowaway was found on a Qantas Boeing 747 bound for Tokyo from Sydney Sunday night, 370 passengers were taken off the plane and given hotel rooms for the night while the plane was fumigated. The Agriculture Department said the mildly poisonous Mandarin rat snake, which can grow to 4 feet, had to be euthanized because it can harbor diseases foreign to Australia. The snake, which apparently arrived on a flight from Singapore a day earlier, was acknowledged to be no threat to humans.
