I Like To Go Barefoot In PublicHi. I love to go barefoot in public. Especially i like in subway or train station. In summer i go barefoot almost always.
How did you get up the nerve?
Being barefoot in public is great. I go barefoot year-round and I love getting my soles really black. In winter I still go barefoot and teh feeling of cold mud oozing between my bare toes is fantastic
me too
Awesome profile pic. I tried to add you bug your preferences are set such that nobody who posts "adult" content may add you. You also have your preferences set such that nobody outside of your circle can send you a message.
I'll have a look a at me settings mate. But i'm not a nudist just a barefooter so only other barefooters will be in my circle
Bare feet is the best, and natural also, I'll never go back to being shod.
Having dirty soles is like having a badge of honor. Yesterday I walked on large patch of dirt in my yard and it felt like I was walking on a nice smooth carpet, It also feels good sleeping at night when your soles are filthy.
Yes! I never wash my feet before going to bed. It gives me a head start on the next day's barefooting and getting my feet filthy.
That's so cool. Train stations get your feet really black and filthy which looks awesome. I also love going barefoot and getting my feet filthy.

him to get a pair of glove.
He and KuglUb were arres

the coat and had on the gloves when ar

to $23. Their trial would not come oil
until March, and I did not like to leave
him there, so I forfeited the $23 and
brought him home. I paid Mr. Huekley

From Sherlll' Irvln, we learn the fol
lowing particulars regarding the burning
and robbing of the residence of Mr. James
W. l!oylc, of Johnson county : On Au
gust 1 Ith, Mr. lloyles, who lives on tho
Metropolis road, four miles from Vienna,
left In the morning to go to Vienna. He
walked to town, but returned In the Me
tropolis hack, about 10 o'clock the same
morning. When he reached home, he
lound his reiddence nearly burned to the
ground. Mr. lloyles is a bachelor, and
lived alone. There lieing no cau.-e for the
accidental burning of the hott-e, suspic
ion was directed to two young men who
were working In the neighborhood,
named William and Alfred Bridges, from
the fact that the former, on the
morning of the lire, had liecn wounded
by a shot from a gun, which took cH'ect
hi tlie thigh, and claimed that an attempt
hud been made to a-sasshmto liltu In the
woods. This was considered very im
probable, from the fact that be is but sev
enteen years of age, and hlsmoveinents,as
well as those of his brother, were clo-ely
watched up until last Friday night, when
Alfred, in company with a man named
l'erry jlrldges, but no relative, however,
suddenly discovered Mr, lloyles bad In
the hoiisii at tbetiinn of tho lire, about
llfteen hundred and slty dollars In cur
rency, besides three watches and two one
hundred dollar Johnson county IkuuIs
Mr. lloyles, by hard work, managed to
recover live hundred dollars of the
currency, which was concenled in a part
of the biiUdlog which had not up to that
time been ivuched by the (lames, and
which had been overlooked by the
thieves. Some of the articles stolen from
the house weroaftcrward found concealed
in the woods close by, but the money and
watches have never xxn brought to light.
When the two Dridgcs left Vienna Fri
day night so suddenly, the sheriff of
Johnson county telegraphed to Sheriff
Irvln that they had taken thu train on the
Cairo and Vlnceiines road for Cairo, nnd
that he should Ixt on hand to receive
them, but the description given was so
bungling and unsatisfactory that It was
Impossible for him to detect them. Tho
sheriff of Johnson county and n deputy
sherlll came down to this place, on Satur
day, and after scouring the city in compa
ny with .Shcrill'Irvln and Deputy Sherlll
Calne, returned without bringing the
theives lo light. They are con vhiccd that
thegttllty parties weroln this city Saturday
night, but where they went to from here,
Is the question that Is now pu..IIng their

The weather to-iliy and yesterday
was warm and pleasant, with clear skle
and warm sunshine.
Thi! river is clear of Ice here and below,
ami from present indications the river
will In a few days be open to St. Louis.
The bottom seem to have fallen out of
the grain and hay market. There
Is no change In Hour, that branch of the
market being about as dull as It could
lx; with anything at all doing.
Oats and corn are In large and exces
sive supply and weak, closing 2 cents
lower to-day.
1'eceipts for last four days were as fol
Iowj :
23 cars oat; 10 c.ir com; 4 cars wheat.
JiTOur Irlcuds should bear In mind
tliat the prices hen-given ate usually for
sale from first hands in round lots. In
lilliug orders and for broken lot It Is nec
essary to charge an advance over these
There Is no change for the better In the
ilour market. The stock ot all grades is
moderately heavy and the demand very
small. Order-" come in slowly, and are
eontlned generally to the lowe.-t grades.
Prices remain us prevlou-ly quoted.

seems to be plenty ottering for the de
maud. Prices hold unchanged, hales were :
130 bbU kiln dried, $'A 70; 30 Mils green

$3 70;
Tho market rules steady and firm with
demand In excess of the supply. Sales
reported were: IW0 sacks delivered,
$22 00; 1 ear in sacks delivered, $22 00.
Some dealers report a better feeling in
this branch of the market with the pros
pect of a better Southern trade and an
ndvance In prices, while others see little
encouragement. Stocks of common and
medium are certainly too heavy for the
demand. The only scarcity felt Is In
choice Xorthern yellow. Sales were:
100 lbs common Xorthern roll, 20o ; 200

scant for the demand. Sales were: 200
dozen, 20a; 500 doen, 22e; COO dozen,
23o; 1,000 dozen, 20e.
Theiu are no chickens coming In aiul
none on the market. Thu demand Is

Here's a better idea: Let's keep xl_tot_len as it is, but move xl_len at the very end of the WAL record, after all the backup blocks. If there are no backup blocks, xl_len is omitted. Seems more robust to keep xl_tot_len, so that you require less math to figure out where one record ends and where the next one begins. > Forcing the XLogRecord header to be all on one page makes the format > more robust and simplifies the code that copes with header wrapping. -1 on that. That would essentially revert the changes I made earlier. The purpose of allowing the header to be wrapped was that you could easily calculate ahead of time exactly how much space a WAL record takes. My motivation for that was the XLogInsert scaling patch. Now, I admit I haven't had a chance to work further on that patch, so we're not gaining much from the format change at the moment. Nevertheless, I don't want us to get back to the situation that you sometimes need to add padding to the end of a WAL page. My suggestion above to keep xl_tot_len and remove xl_len from XLogRecord doesn't have a problem with crossing page boundaries. - Heikki

Will Obama simply plod through his remaining 3 1/2 years destroying America at every turn? And no one will step up to stop him?
Benghazi, AP spying, Fast and Furious, using the IRS as a tool, gun confiscation, raping the Constitution, destroying freedoms, spying on the American tax payers, raising taxes, targeting businesses, appointing America haters throughout his administration – you name it – it is happening.
Why is there no one in our government who can stop this person?
Is there a court somewhere who can stop this man from destroying 200+ years of American history and hard work?
Has Obama infiltrated the government to such an extent that there is now no one in government who will stand up for our Constitution and American way of life?
Who will stop this man?
How is it that our Federal government has fallen apart so much that this destruction, corruption and tyranny is allowed to go on?
There must be no true Americans left working with the Federal government. They must all be gone. In their place are people who hate America, hate the tax payers and hate everything our great country stands for.
How was this allowed to occur?
Who is watching out for the best interests of the hard working American tax payer? Answer – no one in the Obama administration – no one.
Just the opposite, in fact – his administration is filled with people sympathetic to the radical Muslims of the world – it is so obvious – and they are all intent on destroying America.
The stupid libs will not stop Obama – in fact they cheer him on.
These people are his very important to the task – useful idiots – he plays them with great mastery – they think they are so smart rooting for America's destruction, but instead they are being used – like the pawns that they are.
The "main stream" media will not stop Obama – in fact, again they too are 100% complicit in his destruction of America and obvious Muslim infiltration of our government – Obama couldn't have done it without the scum media.
And just to show how stupid the libs are, again – while the media is kissing his ass they are getting used and abused by Obama as he is secretly spying on and listening to everything they say and write! Surprise!
Just like it happened to the media – so it will soon and is happening to his legion of useful idiots.
Through his ObamaCare and higher taxation – these useful idiots are already getting screwed royally – but are just too stupid to realize what is happening to them – they are so blindly in love with him.
Congress and the House? Will they stop him? It appears not! They have let all of this occur in the first place!
The spineless fools in Congress and the House – save a few – seem scared of Obama – and for what?
Take him down! Expose him! Embarrass him! Remove him!
You people in Congress have the power to do this! Now do it! Save this country or it will not end pretty.
So if even they cannot do it – who shall?
The answer is "We the People".
"We the People" must be the ones to stand up and take back our government and our country.
Our brave military fought on foreign soil to defend our Constitution and our freedoms – now it is "We the People" who must fight – but this time on our own soil.
Obama is waging war against the American people – war has been declared!
"We the People" must now fight back – the future existence of America is at stake.
It is "We the People" who were granted this right in the Constitution. We must over throw a tyrannical government and replace it with a government that abides by our great Constitution.
Read the Declaration of Independence – and wake up!
We owe this duty to the one million American soldiers who have fought protecting our freedoms and liberties – we owe it to them!
Contact your Congress person and Representative in the House and demand they stop Obama in his tracks!
Inundate the phone lines and see them in person – make your voice heard! Rise up and speak so they can hear you.
We must be the Patriots of today. We must be willing to die for our country if we are to save it and preserve it for all future generations.
Please join us here at Americans for the Constitution and help us fight back Obama and his oppressive policies.
Join us if you believe in small government, Capitalism, hard work, ambition, lower taxes, individual freedoms and our sacred privacy.
Join us today!
We must stop Obama now!
God bless America and our brave troops.

Vanity Fair Picks the Best-Dressed Brides: See Who Made the List!
Vanity Fair, purveyor of the famous yearly International Best Dressed List, has just come out with its Top 10 Best-Dressed Brides list. And lo and behold, more than a few celebrities have made the cut. After all, stars do have an edge in that they get a lot of practice wearing fancy dresses and posing for cameras.
PHOTOS: Celebrity wedding dresses -- TV and movies
That said, one of the publication's favorite brides is Keira Knightley, who didn't choose a big ball gown for her big day, like most other rich and famous women. The actress' nuptials outfit? A sweet and simple strapless knee-length Chanel dress in blush pink that she reportedly had already wore once to a party in 2009. The recycled dress was paired with a Chanel jacket and ballet flats.
PHOTOS: Best wedding hairstyles
Drew Barrymore also made the cut. Then pregnant with daughter Olive, the actress also chose Chanel for her wedding day, but her gown was more formal, featuring three-quarter sleeves and a dramatic, cascading gown.
PHOTOS: Drew Barrymore selling Montecito wedding house
Other famous brides in the magazine's top 10 include Anne Hathaway and Jessica Biel.

I was lucky enough to pick up one of these babies at an absolutely bargain price. So low that I'm afraid to even say it out aloud, for fear the (poor guy) clueless salesman will hunt me down and accuse me of being a shiester. This synth is an awesome piece of gear, you can use it to create just about any kind of sound imaginable and the x-y pad is to die for. To give an idea of the range possible on this synth : I create music for film and television, usually of an orchestral/instrumental variety, I also play in an expermental noise/dreampop band, and my personal project is an ambient electronic/new age sound. The Z1 is totally at home in all three of these environments and usually raises many eyebrows. No, I am not employed by Korg, I just can't stop raving about this thing. All I can say is if you are lucky enough to find one cheap, BUY IT, I waited a day and put down a deposit before securing the finance. Apparently in the meantime up to 10 people offered to pay more than I was - lucky for me the salesman was also honest. Qualms? The only qualm I might have is the manual requires a degree in particle physics, but really is ok if you just follow your ears. Also the patch load latency can be a pain, but I mean really, it's a teaspoon of salt in a lake.

|Raul a hobbyist user from Maryland USA writes:
I had only had the Z1 for 2 weeks but I have played with it since it first appeared in the stores. I, too, considered the initial price too high and I did not purchase one until the "blow-out" prices arrived to clear the inventory. (Never buy anything new right away. You will probably get a better deal later).
What impressed me in the stores was the amount of "squelchy" resononce you could get by turning the front panel knobs (it will take your head off if you are not careful - especially wearing earphones!) What impressed me when I bought one was how much fun the polyphonic sequencer can be especially if you midi the Z1 up to other instruments. What annoys me now is the lack of left or right cursor buttons to navigate the viewscreen so I have to play with the knobs for a long time to get where I want to go even for basic operations. The most important annoyance is the one second lag time before loading new voices or performances. If you intend to use this thing live and need to change programs, you will be very upset. Get something else.
The sounds are wonderful and the Z1 is well supported by Midiquest Editor Librarian and others (there is even a freebee on the net for PC users). Pro-rec has three banks for the instrument, Korg has two extra banks on a card and Patchman Music has one bank for wind instrument players. This is not a whole lot of programming support out there apparently so you will need to do some tweaking of your own.
I was able to get the 16 bank 4 Meg ATA PCMCIA flash rom card from Synchrotech in Los Angeles for $70 plus $8 for 3 day shipping. Their phone number is (213) 368-3760. Their fax number is (213) 368-3765. I mention this because the sales people in my area are completely ignorant about where and how to get this storage card and it wasn't easy to find on the net either. The two bank Korg sound card is still available from Korg according to their latest "Proview" magazine. However Korg gives no phone number in the magazine or on the net. (Wonderful user support, buy our stuff but don't bother us afterward).
When you sequence with the Z1 you should be aware that it is sending out continuous midi time clock signals from its arpegiator unless the set the arpegiator control parameter to "ext" (external control mode).
I have had my Z1 crash once whereas it made no sound and nothing in the manual would have helped me get it working again. The "Zimmer" web site for the Z1 told me about the emergency boot procedure. You hold down both switch one and switch two next to the X-Y pad while you power up the machine. This will initialize EVERYTHING. The procedure to restore your factory sounds is in the manual.
I wish the Z1 has the memory power to store your X-Y settings but it doesn't. I also wish someone would come out with another Vector Synthesizer because this X-Y pad will not record X-Y movements.
But in spite of its limitations and because of its wonderful sounds and arpegiator, I am glad I bought one.

If you like programming and experimenting,you can't live without the Z1. It's also a damn good master controler. Things that suck: #of fx per voice, #of outputs (1 stero pair), slow to navigate, small and low contrast lcd, weak presets, weak string/plucked instrument models. You also need a phd in physics to create a good sounding bass or guitar.
Sell your old tb, and get one of these for Christ sake.

Although I loved the Z1 upon playing it in the shops, I had no intention of buying it until I got a good deal on one in a sale. It is one of the best bits of gear that I have bought!!!!!It is the most expressive synthesizer in my studio (Real time knobs X/Y touchpad, switches) and it can produce many different types of sounds (except acoustic pianos and drums) at the same time. It is a very powerful synthe but also very complex to program- not that the operating system is badly laid out, just that it is a VERY DEEP SYNTHE!!!! Undoubtably, it's weakest link lies in it''s effects, whilst they sound OK, they are not flexible to use in a multi-timbral context- one bas is fed to both the insert and master effects instead of giving you a choice in multi mode!! Also, there shoul be at least 4 outputs at the back. This is why I do not use mine multi-timbrally. I have also enountered a strange problem when running it with an external sequencer. When I reset back to the start of the sequence, (I think) some type of controller data changes the parameters around at random! Upon contacting Korg Australia, I was told that this could be a bug that WILL NOT BE FIXED???? However besides this gripe, the ZI really excells at sounds from analogue pads, leads and basses right up to great sounding trumpets, saxes, EP's, Organs, Strings, Guitars and Electric basses. I have the 18 voice expansion for it also. It compliments my Triton very nicely also. I looked at both a Roland JP8000 and Yamaha EX5 for good analogue emulations and physical modelled acoustic sounds and I felt that the Z1 bet them both in terms of sheer sonic flexibility. Lets hope that Korg continue to work in the area of physical modelling as they came out with a FUTURE CLASSIC with the Zi

z1=8 to 10 prophecy's? Got to like that -- obviously the same thing as Sequential did so many years ago with the Prophet 5/Pro-one -- well in reverse atleast.
Now if only Korg would bring the price out of the stratosphere I'd probably buy one... or two.....
These look to be some of the most open ended synth's made, although I think I may go the modular route sometime soon.

The Discipline of Organizing. MIT. 2013. 539p. ed. by Robert J. Glushko. bibliog. notes. index. ISBN 9780262518505. $40. PRO MEDIA
Have you ever organized your books, CDs or DVDs, food pantry items, files on your computer, or bookmarked websites? If so, though the activity may have felt like second nature to you, what you were actually doing, according to editor Glushko (Sch. of Information, Univ. of California, Berkeley; coauthor, Document Engineering: Analyzing and Designing Documents for Business Informatics and Web Services), was creating an "Organizing System—an intentionally arranged collection of resources and the interactions they support." Here, Glushko pulls together contributions from scholars, information analysts, and technology experts to introduce the concept of an organizing system and explain the fundamental goals and challenges in the design and setup of such systems, using libraries, museums, businesses, and other organizations to illustrate how these systems are created. Entries cover such topics as selecting and organizing resources, theories of categorization, classifications (faceted and computational), and forms of resource descriptions (e.g., XML, JSON, RDF). Each chapter concludes with six types of endnotes: citation, LIS (library and information science), computing, CogSci (cognitive science), law, and business. Additional resources include a glossary and companion website. VERDICT This ambitious and well-written book provides a foundation of the theory and practice of organizing. It is highly recommended to library and information science academics who incorporate the concept of organizing or organization into their courses.

There'll be no harsh words tonight. No getting on anyone, no wondering why some players aren't doing this and that. Heck, I'm not even going to bring up how Jaroslav Halak blew his shutout by giving the puck away on a power play.
Because this is a night to savour. A delicious, one-sided, crowd-pleasing 5-1 blowout over the New York Islanders to give us all hope that slowly but surely, the team's coming around and isn't the sad sack bunch we saw just recently on a west coast swing that we're all trying desperately to forget.
Seeing five goals was like seeing Sophia Loren topless in one of her old movies – rare but exhilarating. Glen Metropolit was a force with two assists. Two guys who took longer to score than me in high school – Max Pacioretty and Maxim Lapierre, finally hit home runs. And Marc-Andre Bergeron has a shot that bends steel. This is a guy who's a keeper, and when Andre Markov gets back, these two will help show all the naysayers out there that this is a team to be reckoned with.
5-1. Is it possible?
Random Notes:
Marc-Andre Bergeron's shot reminds me of mine when I played for the Orillia Byers Bulldozers midgets. The only difference is, his is fast, hard, dangerous, and leaves the ice.
Pierre McGuire kept talking to Carey Price on the bench during the game and I'll bet Price wished Pierre would just shut the hell up. But like I said, I'm not criticising anyone tonight.
I'd also like to take the time to defend Hal Gill a little, who often has the crowd and broadcasters on him because he's a tad slow. But if you were Gill's size, which is just slightly shorter than the Empire State Building, would you be a fast skater? Gill gets it done in other ways. Like his long reach, and taking out bowling pins in front of the net. I think we should give Hal a break because on this night especially, it's all about peace and love.
I completely dislike the "Smurfs" nickname Brian Gionta, Mike Cammalleri and Scott Gomez have been tagged with. Stop it people. Did you or do you call Henri Richard, Theoren Fleury, Martin St. Louis, and many other superstars "smurfs?" Just because an announcer thought this up at some point, does it mean you have to embrace it?
Rangers in town Saturday. Keep it going, boys. Put some red blood on those blueshirts.

The U.S. National Park Service is one of the best things about America. It is America. 100 years old, it's a national treasure to learn about our nation's history and lands. I really love visiting different sites, from urban memorials to remote parks. See a list of National Park sites.
While I don't want to get political, as a NPS lover and free-speech advocate, what is going on now is breaking my heart for the group I love. In January, the new president restricted the speech of parks employees via official social media accounts and talking to the media, for things like climate change, publishing reports and things like that. A group of parks employees are resisting and continue to get information out via Alt National Park Service.
The parks really provide so much value culturally and educationally to me. Aaron and I plan our trips with the National Park Service in mind, and enjoy our time at the sites. I love all the social media accounts for the park services, as the beautiful photos and informative captions always brighten my day and make me proud to live in a wonderful country.
While I've been going to National Park Services sites since before I could walk them without getting tired (so, at least the toddler years), I want to share some of my favorite photos from recent trips.
You can follow Alt National Parks. Get involved with the National Park Service, including donating.
I would love to see your photos and hear about your favorite park. If you have something to share, please leave it in the comments below.

The opening shots in the Samsung versus Apple case are about as inane and silly as you would think.
The goal here is to convince a US jury that America invented everything and those nasty Asians just copied them. Apple attorneys will ask the jury to fine Samsung a ridiculous $2 billion in damages because it used five patents.
Harold McElhinny, one of the lead attorneys in Apple's patent infringement lawsuit against Samsung, claimed that Samsung realised it did not have a product that could compete successfully against the iPhone.
He quoted internal Samsung documents, including a memo containing comments from JK Shin, Samsung's head of mobile, that said the company was suffering a "crisis of design" and had to figure out how to respond to Apple.
McElhinny said Samsung copied the iPhone and it also took many other novel Apple inventions that have not yet appeared in Apple products.
McElhinny said Samsung has sold more than 37 million infringing devices. If the two parties had negotiated royalties, Samsung would have paid an average of $33 per device or $40 per device — or about $2 billion overall — for the use of all five Apple software patents.
Almost every expert on patents said that figure is wildly out and McElhinny admitted that the requested damage level is high, but said he hopes that at the end of the trial, the jury "will understand the reason the damages in the case are high is because the scope of Samsung's infringement has been massive".
Then it starts to get sillier. McElhinny insists that ten percent of people who would have bought Samsung devices would have purchased an iPhone if the Samsung device was not available. So therefore it will have to pay for Apple's mythical lost sales. Given that Apple had a huge market share in the US at the time, that is like saying "we are a monopoly and anyone who creates competition for us should be fined".
We will get to hear Samsung's side of the story today.

Ghana Mandates the Appointment of Anti-Money Laundering Reporting Officers
Ghana's Financial Intelligence Center (FIC) and the Bank of Ghana (BoG) have mandated all financial institutions in the country to appoint an Anti-Money Laundering Reporting Officer (AMLRO).
The 'Anti-Money Laundering( AML)/Combating the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) Guideline' was issued in accordance with Regulation 5(1) of L.I.1987.
The duties of the Anti Money Laundering officers include:
* Developing an AML/CFT compliance programme
*Receiving and vetting suspicious transaction reports from staffs
*Filing suspicious transaction report with FIC
*Ensuring that the financial institution's compliance programme is implemented.
*Coordinating and training of staff in AML/CFT awareness, detection methods and reporting requirements.
*Serving both as a liaison officer with the BoG and FIC and a point of contact for all employees on issue relating to money laundering and terrorist financing.
To carry out their duties effectively, the constituted authority (FIC&BoG) has urged that the AML officer should be equipped with the relevant competence authority and independence to implement the institution's AML/CTF compliance Program.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) will be signed with Cameroon on information sharing relating to money laundering as similar collaboration has been made with Togo and Burkina Faso.
Meanwhile, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Financial Intelligence (FIC) revealed that since the inception of the FIC in 2010, the center has received a total of 206 suspicious Transaction Report (STRs) worth $6 million out of which 85 have been disseminated to the appropriate authorities as intelligence.
FIC is an administrative body and not a law enforcer. It sends intelligence to law enforcement agencies to conduct further investigations

In previous posts (here, here and here) I've discussed GE's wind power patent suits against its Japanese rival Mitsubishi.
Mitsubishi struck back recently with a lawsuit of its own accusing GE of violating U.S. antitrust laws (see Mitsubishi's press release here).
The complaint (mitsubishi_antitrust_complaint.pdf), filed in federal court in Arkansas, alleges that GE has engaged in an anticompetitive scheme to monopolize the U.S. market for variable speed wind turbines.
According to the allegations, GE has been trying to intimidate Mitsubishi's potential customers through "serial" baseless claims of patent infringement and public statements about Mitsubishi's alleged infringement.
The complaint further alleges that GE's intimidation tactics included advising Mitsubishi's customers to take licenses to GE patents or risk infringement suits. Sonia Williams, a Mitsubishi spokeswoman, said that GE was seeking "exorbitant licensing fees."
Mitsubishi claims that GE's alleged scheme has worked as Mitsubishi's $2 billion in annual U.S. sales of variable speed wind turbines has dropped to zero since initiation of the first patent infringement suit.
The alleged anticompetitive behavior centers on what Mitsubishi says are sham lawsuits asserting variable speed wind turbine patents that GE allegedly knew were invalid.
According to Mitsubishi, U.S. Patent No. 5,083,039 ('039 Patent), which GE acquired in 2002 from Enron's bankruptcy estate, is invalid in view of GE's own prior art report on work the company did in the 1980's as part of a U.S. government funded program.
This particular prior art was not previously raised despite two investigations in the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) involving the '039 Patent. One reason for this is that the first ITC case, between Kenetech/Zond and Enercon, was based on claim 131 of the '039 Patent while Mitsubishi's invalidity assertion involves claim 121.
Mitsubishi's complaint also questions the validity and enforceability of other patents GE has asserted, including U.S. Patent Nos. 7,321,221 ('221 Patent) and 6,921,985 ('985 Patent).
Specifically, Mitsubishi alleges that GE withheld material prior art from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office during prosecution of the application that issued as the '221 Patent and knowingly omitted an inventor from the application that issued as the '985 Patent.
The same day it filed the antitrust suit, Mitsubishi also fired off a patent infringement complaint (mitsubishi_complaint.pdf) in the Middle District of Florida, accusing GE of infringing U.S. Patent No. 7,452,185, entitled "Blade-pitch-angle control device and wind power generator."
Interestingly, this is not the first green patent war that reached a climax in an antitrust suit. After years of global litigation between LED rivals Nichia and Seoul Semiconductor (Seoul), Seoul accused Nichia of repeatedly filing baseless patent suits to squeeze it out of the market for white side-view LEDs (see my post here).
Shortly thereafter, Nichia and Seoul announced a global settlement.
Perhaps green patent history will repeat itself. The two new Mitsubishi suits may increase Mitsubishi's leverage and lead the parties to the negotiating table.

"This democracy we have is a precious thing…" — Barack Obama.
I suppose I'd be hard-pressed to find a soul among us who hasn't committed a substantial amount of our adult life watching the news, reading magazines, blog articles, newspapers, listening to talk-radio or chatting with sea-bound grobians among the citizenry. And, I suppose I'd come up empty-handed looking for a soul among us who hasn't heard or read the word"democracy" kicked around more frequently than a hacky sack at a marathon Grateful Dead-Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young-Phish-Mamas and Papas-Doobie Brothers-The Birds-Simon and Garfunkel-Jefferson Airplane reunion tour. I suppose that, at the tender drinking age of double-decade-uno, had I decided to create a drinking game contingent on the usage of "democracy" among politicians and analysts and generally-untutored droids, I wouldn't have the capacity to write this right now, as my body would be 10 years dissolved into the dirt and photos of my liver would be circulating among medical journals worldwide. How did he die? If Joe Biden were to answer, he'd say it all came down to a three-syllable word: Democracy.

Top Tips for Bands on Facebook (Part Two)
Following on from yesterday's blog post, here's more of our Top Tips for Bands on Facebook.
Ask Questions
Connect with your fans by asking for their input. Ask for their thoughts on decisions the band is making to get them involved. If you're not sure what piece of artwork to use for an album cover, post both photos up on Facebook and ask for your fan's opinions.
Using Facebook Questions is a great way to engage with your fans and gain a better understanding of what they want. Don't forget, these are the people who support you each and every day.
Facebook apps are a great way off making your Page stand out. With thousands available for free, there's no excuse not to have installed at least one. Soundcloud and Bandcamp both offer free apps that are great for showcasing your work, or for those that want to push their band's marketing even further, apps can also be custom built for you to fit in with your band's branding.

In a free market economy, things are worth what someone is prepared to pay. So, what are you worth?
What value do you have? And to whom? It is a sad fact, that in some parts of our world slavery, servitude and trafficking still go on.
Do you think you are worth something? Are you valuable to your family and friends? Are you special to someone?
It's a fair thing to say that your life is your most precious possession. Without it, no other possessions will matter. The harshest penalties in our laws are reserved for those who take a life that doesn't belong to them.
It is a sad thing when people get to the point of giving their lives away. In despair, their lives have become so painful, that they no longer value them. It is no longer worth it.
So, what are you worth? The Bible says God values us. The price He paid for us was his own life, and I struggle to even understand what that really means, but I am in awe of it.
It is that awe that has shaped my life since I first realised it was real. We are precious to Him.
Some might say this is arrogance and there is some logic to the argument if we made this up ourselves.
My life is valuable to Him and I want to spend it in the best way I can. I want to give 'value' to my King.
Many Christians over the centuries have given up their lives for Him. In some parts of the world, it is still happening today.
If my children were threatened, I would 'take the bullet' for them. This is the instinct of a father. This instinct comes from the Heavenly Father; our dad.
This is the story of Christmas, which we will soon be celebrating. But I like to celebrate it every day. My dad loves me, and I am precious to Him.

What relationship do you prefer Rin and Len having? And Leon and Lola, too.
Posted 12 September 2010 - 10:52 PM
I wanted to see what was more popular (twins or lovers?), but I also wanted to include other options. I think I've covered nearly every option possible: twins, lovers, both of the above, and all the variations upon "none of the above." In fact, I wonder if I've added TOO many options. My fear is that half the answers for Leon and Lola's question will be "I don't like it when they sing together" or something boring like that...
For Rin and Len, I selected twins. Two reasons: 1. Akuno-P brainwashed me. 2. They look too alike, so most Rin/Len love songs gross me out, as I'm not a fan of twincest. However, I am not so opinionated that I will refuse to listen to a song just because it's Rin/Len.
Leon/Lola is tied for my OTP. (Miriam/Wiriam is my other OTP~)
Posted 12 September 2010 - 11:01 PM
And you know Rin and Len aren't siblings in the Akuno series, right...?
Also, I have a somewhat similar poll in the R/L fanclub: http://vocaloidotaku...nxlen-fan-club/

I was actually refering to Abandon Excerpts Moonlight/Moonlit Bear. (I like those more then the Evil series.) And they're not? I find that hard to believe. It's never explicitly stated that they're twins, but it seems like the most logical explination. What are they supposed to be?
Soft~n~Fluffy, on 12 September 2010 - 04:01 PM, said:
Ah, shoot! I thought somebody had made a poll somewhere on here, but I couldn't find it in the poll section. I assumed it must have been on the old forum... I never would have thought to check the Rin/Len fanclub! Though I apparently already voted in that poll... OTL. I'm sorry about this!

The whole mirror image deal is kind of hilarious. How would YOU like making out with a piece of glass, hm?
As for Leon and Lola, I dislike their voices... .o.

Posted 15 September 2010 - 05:41 AM
I don't have too much of a preference on Leon and Lola's relationship.
But they weren't siblings in the Akuno series...? Why do you say that?
In Servant of Evil doesn't he say that they had the same blood and that Rin was his sister..?
It doesn't really matter to me if they were siblings or not (I guess it would make sense, why would Rin become royalty and her brother not?), I'm just a little confused on that.
Posted 15 September 2010 - 05:45 AM
Posted 15 September 2010 - 11:45 AM
I dun like twincest. ;u;
...And I too have fallen victim to Akuno-P's braingwashing. xD;;
...They're siblings in the Akuno series.
"--- twins..."
"If you are truly evil then the same blood runs through my veins..."
"My very cute sibling..."
"It's okay, we're twins"
...What does "twins" refer to OTHER than them actually being twins?
And he does refer to her being his sibling as well...
Plus saying the same blood runs through his veins...
//on topic now
Even though as I said I PREFER them as siblings...
I love Juvenile, Why Don't You Call Me Yet?, and Adolescence like WHOA.
...Oh and Secret ~Black Vow~ where Rin turns into Len and then back into Rin...?

They're identical to be a twins, but they're cute as a lovers
I already wrote a fanfic (in Indonesian) about them. On the first fanfic, I depicted them as a siblings. But on my next fanfic, I depicted them as lovers

If they're not siblings in the Akuno series, why do the lyrics of Servant of Evil blatantly state the two are twins?
I despise Rin/Len with a passion, so I picked mirror images for the two.
y'know Crypton themselves actually HAS given us word of what they were, but really just stopped trying once the Great Kagamine Debate took place.
I'm a twin myself. Would I ever fuck my sister? hell no.

The Balearic Islands are located in the western Mediterranean. The islands are divided into two main groups; Gimnesias (Gymnesian Islands) and Pitiusas (Pine Islands). The first one comprises the islands of Mallorca, Menorca and Cabrera, and the latter one the islands of Ibiza and Formentera. The islands are among the most popular tourist destinations of the world due to excellent weather conditions, rich cultural heritage, great hospitality, wonderful beaches and sailing areas, interesting entertainment spots, etc. In spite of their proximity, the islands are completely different, each interesting in its own way.
Mallorca is the largest of the islands.

The bright island of Menorca is famous for its green countryside, the blue crystal sea and the whitewashed houses. The island offers a good shelter of modern, developed beaches as well as of those secluded, unspoiled bays. It is the peaceful tourist resort for relaxed holidays.
Cabrera was proclaimed nature preserve and the access to this beautiful island requires a special permission. The anchorage is permitted only in the port of Cabrera, while some areas are completely restricted.
Ibiza is the third largest of the Balearic Islands. It is worldwide known for its nightlife, top clubs, wonderful beaches and beautiful countryside. The island is ideal for all kinds of water sport activities and sailing vacation, due to favorable weather and sea conditions. There are over 60 beaches along the coast of the island; from sandy beaches with various leisure facilities to hidden coves accessible only by a boat.
Formentera is located 11 miles from the southeast coast of Ibiza. It can be reached by ferry from Ibiza. The island abounds in beaches and bays. The sea is visible from every point of the island. The Balearic Islands enjoy mild weather of typical Mediterranean climate with an average annual temperature of approximately 17 degrees.
The Canary Islands consist of seven larger islands of volcanic origin and several smaller ones. The islands are located off the northwestern coast of Africa and feature the most peculiar mountainous terrain. Weather conditions are perfect with an average annual temperature of 20 degrees and allow various sport activities throughout the year. It's a paradise with modern infrastructure that attracts many tourists all year round, due to their vast sandy beaches, reefs, capes and wonderful bays. The largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife, is a real paradise for tourists with a range of activities and entertainment. The island is characterized by wonderful climate, mountainous terrain, fertile valleys, beautiful coast with sandy beaches and a number of tourist areas.
Gran Canaria is an island of varied landscape with lush forest, mountain massive, desert land, wide sandy beaches and the capital of highly original and individual architecture showing influences of all the continents.
Fuerteventura is the closest Canary Island to the African coast, famous for its enormous sand dunes and long sandy beaches. It is the oldest of the Canary Islands with many attractions, also popular among surfers ad divers.
Lanzarote is an island of distinguishes volcanic landscape mostly covered with ashes and lava. Mild dry climate and temperatures ranging from 21 to 29 degrees make it a perfect year-round destination.
La Palma is an island of extraordinary natural beauty with sunny climate and year-round moderate temperatures. The island's northern part is dominated by the world's largest erosion crater.
Gomera, an impressive island with many preserved antique traditions and customs, attracts tourist to the beautiful environment full of natural elements.

FBI raids offices of D.C. campaign financier, PR consultant
The FBI has raided the offices of Jeffrey Thompson, a prominent figure who has helped finance campaigns of a number of D.C. politicians, and Jeanne Harris, a public relations consultant, ABC7 News has confirmed.
Thompson has been involved in financing the campaigns of Mayor Vincent Gray, D.C. Council Chairman Kwame Brown, and former Mayor Adrian Fenty. There was no word on whether or not the investigation is connected in any way to Gray, Brown, or Fenty.
ABC7's Sam Ford asked for more information from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia.
By email, Bill Miller, a spokesperson said, "Law enforcement activities were conducted today as part of an ongoing investigation. We can confirm that there were no arrests today and that no charges have been filed as of this time."
The spokesperson declined to comment further due to the ongoing nature of the investigation.
WATCH Sam Ford's report.
