Having had a quick read through some posts I want to express my absolute delight that there is a forum like this avaliable for people to talk through there issues and feelings.
A little background to the reason I'm posting. I'm 18 years old, and for the last 6 years have had difficulty fighting what was originally diagnosed with depression, and also obsessive compulsive disorder which affects both the way i act and the way i think. It took me away from school for 3 years, and has also affected my college life. It has also lead me to spent great chunks of my life shut away, but also having extended periods of happiness to the point where i have become iritable not anxious with how alert and happy I am.
In late October, I experienced a severe manic episode for the first time. In the past I have had hypomanic episodes which my GP and a CPN i saw for sometime seemed to over look, but in this instance it was a Thursday morning in which I experienced what I can only describe as an adrenaline rush followed by a complete loss of control and found myself, in something of a cimenatic way no doubt fueled by the countless hours I had shut myself away watching TV and films, heading down to the train tracks feeling completely lost, unable to find a purpose or feeling that wasn't overpowered by dispair and pointlessness. It was whilst I was walking down, clearly appearing distressed that a local lady stopped me and asked me if I needed help, originally ignoring her she physically stopped me and somehow managed to calm me down to the point I was sat on the footpath while the police and paramedics arived. They took me back to my house, while in my mind I could only feel they weren't realising how much I was suffering so I ran in and shut myself in a room thinking a familiar place may calm me down, at this point they appeared to loom in on me and I paniced, lashing out and striking a police officer in the face which lead them to handcuff me and have an oxygen mask because I was having a panic attack put on me at which point I passed out, fading in and out of conciousness.
During the time I was unconcious I was having vivid dreams of being a flash of light that couldn't switch off, continuosly heading down a read that wouldn't end. Before (around 4 hours later) i regained full conciousness, still handcuffed, in hospital. A few hours later I was allowed to leave, and head home still extremely depressed unable to grasp the whole scenario that had took place.
The following week I went back to college fighting extreme mood swings, having still not seen a doctor because of waiting lists and their apparent inability to see the desperate situation I was in. I was feeling extremely uncomfortable around people, worrying it was all going to take place again.. and although my anxious behaviour was picked up on by teachers and fellow students it wasn't really seen as anything unusual for me. Ironically, in the middle of the week I watched an old rerun of Whose Line Is It Anyway? on Freeview, and saw almost a carbon copy of the way I can behave in Tony Slattery acting anxious and clearly uncomfortable infront of other people, who I was later told appears in the documentary because he suffers from Bipolar Disorder.
On the Thursday morning (my day off) almost exactly a week after it happened the first, i experienced a similar feeling of dread and fear take over my body, at which point I took Diazepam (given me by my doctor in order to fight the effects of what they described as a 'panic disorder'). This time I felt more in control but the feeling of completely dispair, and derealization lasted for 9 days.. ending in what I can only describe as an attack of rage and anger that lead me to trash the garage, destroying a great deal of (fortunately worthless) possessions. At this point my neighbour heard the noise and came to help me, taking me for an emegency appointment at the doctor where I was told i was experiencing a manic episode, which needed to be tested for psychosis (something which still hasn't been done). I was offered prozac and cipralex to ease my depression and anxiety, the latter of which I took and have been told once I have seen a psychiatrist in the new year if I indeed I have the symptons of Bipolar I then I would be advised to take Lithium, and in the mean time to read up on the effects of it.
Having done so I was wondering what people would recommend I do, the harmful affects of the Lithium in themselves are not what worry me, it's more the fear it will destroy my personaly, charisma and creativity.. which are the few remaining things I feel I have kept after this episode.
I have mainly logged my experience for myself, because I have big gaps in my memory I thought it might help to trace my steps and see what I could read into the whole experience. I don't expect anyone to read through the whole thing lol. But I would like to know how you all deal with your experiences, depression, anxiety and what your views on mood stabilising medication are.
Thanks for reading.
Hope you've all had a good Christmas and have a great New Year.
Take care xxxxxx <3

A Community prayer vigil will be held at Community Clubhouse in Crisp County on Sunday, September 14,2014 at 7pm.
April 20, 2004
Albany- Passing a medical malpractice reform bill was one of the things Georgia lawmakers failed to do during the legislative session, and since he sets the agenda Governor Sonny Perdue could try to bring it up again in an upcoming legislative session.
It has been one of the most intensely lobbied measures of the year and has lawyers and doctors at odds.
Orthopedic surgeon Dr.Daniel Rhoads has looking for a partner to join his group for two years now. "Georgia is listed in crisis for medical liability and people are not interested in coming here," he says.
He claims million dollar malpractice lawsuit awards have driven up physician insurance premiums by 30% for the past three years, and even forced one Albany neurosurgeon to leave, and more than of half the Bainbridge obstetricians to quit delivering babies.
"There's a tremendous amount of liability in delivering babies. If an obstetrician decides not to deliver babies then his insurance premiums go down considerably."
"What are we comparing it with. If I sell someone a $30,000 premium, $40,000 premium that sounds like a lot of money, but if you're comparing it to say a million dollars in gross income that's three, four percent," says attorney Walter Burt, III.
Burt says victims shouldn't have to pay for the skyrocketing insurance premiums and says proposing a bill to cap the amount of pain and suffering awards at $250,000 isn't the way to go.
"My theory is if you can't cap how seriously you can injure somebody, how do you just artificially cap what you're going to pay to make them whole," Burt adds.
Doctors say $250,000 is more than fair.
"In other states where this cap has been applied, the malpractice premiums have remained fairly stable or have actually gone down," argues Rhoads.
Rhoads says the huge pay outs are simply linked to how well lawyers generate jury sympathy, but Burt argues Georgia's juries and judges have no problem seeing through non-meritorious and frivolous lawsuits.
The question is, where do lawmakers stand and will they heed doctors warnings of Georgia's growing medical crisis?
Doctors are also calling for tighter qualifications for being an expert witness, and joint liability which means juries could spread the settlement among all medical workers involved in the malpractice.

Male pattern baldness, also known as androgenic alopecia, is the most common form of hair loss in men. As the term suggests, male pattern baldness follows a typical sequence. It usually starts at the temples and on the crown of the head, causing thinning and creating a bald spot. For some men, losing their hair can be very distressing and can have an impact on their confidence. Fortunately, there are clinically proven baldness treatments available, that can work effectively to stop hair loss and stimulate growth.
euroClinix offers a successful baldness treatment online, called Propecia. We offer this treatment along with our online consultation service. The consultation is free, convenient and completely confidential, and will only be checked by one of our registered doctors. If our doctor feels that you can use this treatment safely, your order will be approved, a prescription will be issued and sent to our pharmacy. Our pharmacy will dispense it and dispatch it, free of charge, via overnight courier service.
Why am I losing my hair?
Although researchers are still studying the factors that cause this condition, male pattern baldness is generally believed to be hereditary. If hair loss runs in your family there is a strong chance that you too could start to show signs of hair loss at some point. The hair loss process usually begins as men approach middle-age, although it may happen quicker for some people, affecting men as young as 18 or 19.
How does male pattern hair loss happen?
Male pattern baldness is caused by the effect of male hormones, called androgens, on genetically sensitive hair follicles. The male hormone testosterone is converted into the androgen 'dihydrotestosterone', or 'DHT', by an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase. The effect of DHT inhibits the growth of new hair cells, causing hairs to loosen and shed, leading to eventual baldness.
The symptoms of male pattern baldness
The typical pattern starts at the hairline; it gradually recedes to form an "M" shape and the remaining hair may become finer and shorter. The hair at the crown also begins to thin, then eventually the top of the hairline meets the thinned crown, leaving a horseshoe pattern of hair around the sides of the head.
Male pattern baldness treatments
Before choosing a hair loss treatment you should speak to a specialist or our doctor online to get advice on which method will benefit your condition. This will help you to avoid spending money and precious time on products that aren't effective. Many natural supplements and creams claim to help restore hair, although few of them have any clinical data to back up their claims.
Plastic surgery, transplant, scalp reduction and flap-surgery are alternative male pattern baldness treatments that can offer cosmetic improvements, but are potentially intrusive, expensive, and will most likely require a repeat procedure as time goes on.
Propecia is the only prescription FDA-approved baldness treatment which is proven to treat male pattern hair loss on the vertex (top of head) and anterior mid-scalp area (middle front of head) in men. Finasteride an active ingredient of Propecia can halt male pattern baldness in 99% of men, and cause significant regrowth in 66% of users.
Can I buy male pattern baldness treatment online?
Propecia can be bought safely online by men who are suffering from male pattern baldness. When you buy your medication, you will need to fill in an online consultation form. This will be checked over by one of our team of doctors. If they feel that you are safe and suitable to this treatment, they will issue a prescription. Our pharmacy will then dispatch the medication for overnight delivery.

I have been through a multitude of dips on CL, and this one just isn't up to par with the others i have found. It was a bit like a playdough texture... I'd probably add more chicken broth to make it creamier!
Rosemary-Chickpea Dip
nwilker Posted: 11/21/09
Pudding Posted: 09/04/09
This dip was okay but I used dried chickpeas (not canned) to make it and found the dip needed extra liquid added to it for it to puree to a smooth consistency. I might try making it again with canned chickpeas the next time I have fresh rosemary around.
Heidelind1 Posted: 05/28/10
I didn't hate this recipe, but I would not make it again. It's just not worth it. I love chickpeas and I love rosemary, but this recipe just didn't bring much to the table.

TUMTUM, Wash. – Wednesday KREM 2 News learned about a second brutal attack on farm animals in the town of Tumtum.
4 out of the last five days farm animals in Tumtum have been killed. Sheriff's deputies say they have set up extra patrols to catch them, but even so people in the area are taking matters into their own hands. They say they're on the lookout for a gang of vicious dogs attacking and killing animals.
"I think it's going to keep escalating and keep going until they're caught," said Mariann a neighbor in the area.
Tuesday night there was an attack at a farm on Scott's Valley Road. That's where a valuable pygmy goat was killed along with the goat's two babies. That attack happened about a mile from the first attack KREM 2 News reported Tuesday night. Dozens of rabbits, sheep and chickens were savagely killed there.
"It was pretty intense, it seems like they're going between houses," said a neighbor.
The dogs started killing Saturday April 2nd and Sunday April 3rd, since then they have come back twice. In all 11 sheep, 25 goats, several chickens and geese have been killed or gone missing for a value of approximately $3,500 dollars.

Can Little Cyprus Cause Bigger Problems?
A: I want to get away from the red-hot Manhattan real estate story today, not only because its been the same story for so long now and I'm tired of talking about the same thing over and over, but more so because of the silliness taking place in Cyprus this weekend. That's right, that little island-country floating east of Greece, may cause some bigger problems down the road. It was reported this weekend that the EU will force a bailout of Cyrus's banking system at the expense of savers in the form of a "tax on deposits" up to 9.9% for deposits over 100,000 euros; 6.75% tax for deposits under that amount. Cyprus banks were still struggling from assets held after the restructuring of Greek debt. To avoid a full fledged run on Cyprus banks, officials "took immediate steps to prevent electronic money transfers over the weekend". Now Cyprus's Parliament is in emergency mode, postponing a session to approve the new tax on deposits, but in my opinion, the damage is already done and who knows if this little spark can cause a bigger fire later.
How are investors/savers in Spain, Italy, etc. going to react to this ridicoulous penalty imposed by the EU on Cyprus deposit holders? How does the EU not consider these unintentional consequences of such actions?
Mish states it best in his discuss "Contagion-Begging Actions; Expect Bank Runs Following Cyprus Idiocy":
In Cyprus, a decision was made to screw savers with a 6.75% to 9.9% "Tax" on deposits.I am wondering the same thing. How can this not cause 'deposit fear' as Mish calls it, to spread throughout the weakest parts of the EU?
Supposedly this move was made to "avoid unsettling investors in larger countries and sparking a new round of market contagion." In reality, the action was mandated theft, imposed by EU officials to protect senior bondholders.
How can such an action do anything but cause contagion? Why would any rational thinking Spanish person keep any money in Spanish banks? They shouldn't and I suspect they won't.
Rest assured there is going to be vengeance over this action.....and deposit fear will spread everywhere.
I don't know, this just seems like a really really bad call from the EU. Forbes already has a title out that seems to agree, "The Botching of the Cyprus Bailout: Worse Than Lehman Brothers":
Hank Paulson badly botched the Lehman Brothers crisis of 2009. But at least he had an excuse. Panicked by the speed of Lehman's meltdown, he had no time for second thoughts. By comparison the German-led group of EU officials who engineered this weekend's Cyprus bank bailout don't have a leg to stand on. Although they had years to consider their options (Cyprus's problems are closely related to, and have long been almost as obvious as, those of Greece), they have opted for a "solution" that amounts to probably the single most inexplicably irresponsible decision in banking supervision in the advanced world since the 1930s.At a time when US equity markets reached new highs and Manhattan real estate "couldn't be hotter", this news brings a few unwelcome storm clouds. Will this be another "non-event" or is this potentially the trigger to something more? It may be worthwhile to keep our eyes on this given the levels of complacency out there (the VIX is at its lowest levels since early 2007).
As my colleague Tim Worstall has pointed out in a well argued contribution yesterday, they have weakened - perhaps catastrophically - the principal pillar sustaining modern banking. This pillar is deposit insurance.
February Manhattan Market Report
A: And the deals just keep on coming! If it feels like its very active out there, your right, and the data shows it. This February saw another high in 'deal volume' (contract activity) as we booked 1,099 new contracts signed -- the previous high was February 2008 which booked 1,041 new deals signed. This blows past previous February production levels that averaged in the mid-800's. All of this is coming as inventory remain at very low levels. Add in how equity markets are reaching record highs, and there are no forces out there to get in the way of this Manhattan run. Until something changes, buyers will have to deal with competition for well priced property that has desired features (views/renovations/outdoor space). Lets go to the real-time data.
First, lets take a look at Manhattan Monthly Contract Activity to see how February performed compared to past years:
+26% over FEBRUARY 2012
+28% over PRIOR MONTH
Conclusion - We are putting more active listings into contract than we have in any other February since we started collecting data in 2008. This is all coming at a time when Active Supply in Manhattan is 29% lower that it was this time last year. The gap between the # of listings coming onto the market & the # of listings going into contract continues to narrow. This shifts the leverage to the sell side as buyers continue to be frustrated with the lack of options and the competition when a good new listing does pop up.
The only way sellers can mess up in this market is by pricing too high and testing the market; if you are testing the market I would not be so quick to discount a low, but realistic offer that comes in.
Here are a few general conclusions I can pass on after reviewing all the real-time data on UrbanDigs.com:
-- The higher price points are outperforming the low end. Specifically, the $2M-$5M price point is very hot right now. The under $1M market continues to be the laggard, but is still on an upward trajectory over the past month
-- 1,436, the # of new active listings to hit the market in February. This is the lowest February of new supply to hit the market since we started keeping records in 2008. This total is also down 3% from the total # of new listings that came to market last February and down 7% from the total that came to market in January.
-- The 3 Hottest Neighborhoods (contract activity) in February are: Midtown West +32%, Soho/Noho/WVillage +30%, and Chelsea at +29%
-- Tribeca & Midtown West saw the biggest drop in supply over the past month; down 11% and down 12% respectively. This at a time when supply is supposed to be rising.
-- The pace of Active listings coming OFF-MKT is at the lowest levels since the peak. This is further confirmation of market strength as sellers are either (a) keeping their listings on the market longer or, (b) are seeing their listings go to contract. In weak markets, sellers tend to pull their listings off market in droves to wait for better times; something that happened in September & October of 2008 after Lehman failed and the market shifted down.
In a few weeks I will start to post articles with the new chart system and should be able to delve into much more detail on what segments of Manhattan are hot and which are underperforming.

West and The Whale House in 2014
It's been a little quiet here recently, so here is an update on the state of play for our schedule this year.
The next volume of West (Vol III: Killing) will deviate from the single-issue structure of previous volumes, comprising a four part storyline, a finale, and an epilogue, and the four-parter (Mississippi) is currently being tightly plotted (almost but not quite full script) to conclusion. This takes a fair bit longer than previously, so apologies for the delay.
In the interim, we are finishing off our West: The Train Leaves at Noon contribution from The Newspaper Strip Collection of Oscar Charles Drayton to conclude that story, and are planning to offer it in an Artist's Edition format, scanned in colour from Tim's original art, and offered with faux-historical text pages, as if it were a long-lost West newspaper strip from the 1970s.
The Whale House, following the departure of artist Chris Doherty, will also continue later in the year. Chris's preferred commitment was for a six issue series, though these grew to 28 pages each, and this dictated much of the scripting. I am currently reformatting the plot to reduce the page count of each issue down to a more manageable 20 pages, and making the series a couple of issues longer, giving it a bit more breathing room. This reediting will also aid me in drawing the series and committing to getting it onto a faster and more reliable schedule.
(There is a new interview with Chris over on Beard Rock concerning his Video Nasties series and plans for future comics. I'm doubly glad of this, as I want to see Chris continue in comics, and also it offers some proof that I haven't murdered him and buried his body in the woods.)
In short, both West and The Whale House will continue once the scripts for both series are essentially complete. Getting the ending of West and the structure of The Whale House is paramount, and I think taking the time to ensure that will be worth the wait.
Again, apologies for the delays.
- Andrew Cheverton

Chapters 35-36 Summary
Chapter 35 describes the work being done in Ndotsheni. The villagers have been reluctant to adopt the new methods of Letsitsi, but with the enforcement of the chief, they have started to change the ways they farm so that the land is not so depleted. In a frank discussion with Kumalo, Letsitsi tells him that even once the land has returned to full production there will not be enough to support all the children of the village. Kumalo is aware of this, and it saddens him.
Chapter 36 is the final chapter, and it takes place on the 14th of the month. Absalom is to be executed the following morning. Kumalo tells his wife he intends to go up to a nearby mountain where he has gone a few times before to think and pray. She makes him a simple meal and says she will not go because it is near the time for Absalom's wife to give birth.
Kumalo begins walking up the path that leads to the mountain and after dark meets up with Jarvis, who is riding pat on his horse. Jarvis asks how things are going with Letsitsi and Kumalo thanks him for bringing the man to the village. Jarvis tells Kumalo he is moving to Johannesburg, but will be back to Ndotsheni to continue his work. He will soon have plans for the new church sent to Kumalo. They speak about Jarvis' grandson and how much he is like the young Arthur. They part, and Kumalo continues up to the mountain where he sits on a large rock looking out over the valley to the east. He thinks about the village and its people and how he was welcomed back. He falls a sleep for a time and wakes as the morning begins to break. He prays and eats, knowing that the time of his son's execution is not far off. As the sun rises, he takes off his hat and stands quietly watching.
Chapters 35-36 Analysis
Chapter 35 provides some optimism about the future of Ndotsheni, but it is tempered by the practical words of Letsitsi who understands Kumalo's dream of halting the flight of young people to the cities. Even when it is restored, the land will not support a growing population, he tells Kumalo. The larger implication suggested by the author is that even though small improvements like those in the village are crucial, change must take place on a national scale.
Chapter 36 is the final chapter, ending on the day Absalom is to be executed. The night before, Kumalo and Jarvis have another short encounter as Kumalo walks up the hills to be alone. Jarvis is reserved as they speak, but respectful and understanding of Kumalo's sorrow. Kumalo continues up the mountain and reflects on the recent events. He confesses his sins to God and prays for his son. Although it is a solemn and sad episode, Paton mixes in a glimmer of optimism as Kumalo looks out upon the rising sun.

This conversation is closed.
What 3 words or things come instantly in your mind when you hear the words "First World" & "Third World"
Please don't ponder or think much. Just right 3 words or name of 3 things come in your mind in respect to "First World" & "Third World". Be honest with your ownself while it's an humble request.
Just got curious about our mindset..... words & name of the things can be taken as the reflection of one's mindset. Nothing wrong or right. It's not a debate.
Lets' face the fact. Once we can face it may be we can try to change it if necessary otherwise what we will change ?
Topics: First World Mindset Right fact third world wrong
Sep 25 2011: Luigi, thank you for your words. I did not know of Vicente Ferrer Moncho, but I 'googled' him and read about him, thanks to you.
You and I agree that classifications of societies leaves out the human aspect of it all. Wonderful people are present in EVERY culture and country. The terms that are referred to as 'first' and 'third' only refer to a countries status in terms of industrialization and development, not more than that.
For example, Denmark and Sweden are developed countries, while Ecuador and Botswana are third world. These terms 'first' and 'third' may not be up to date terms, but I learned them many years ago. I am only a hospital worker (respiratory therapist), not a sociologist or economist.
Sep 24 2011: Salim is just a trip not an escape. You dont understand me. my mind is not poetic, And in this issue Im very practical. Any place in the world can transform to any rate. NewYork s the bigger city in the Third world and some penthouse in luxury places in Mexico city or Calcuta could be better or worst.
The point here is not the place, is the people, I know a lot of real people from India (I was there servingin my earlier period as a jesuit) and they all are formidable people.
Really poor but really nice and harmonious and full of hope and enthusiasm to transform their lives in better lives. First, second ot third worls is the same. For us jesuits, the world is our home.
Sep 25 2011: Luigi A short trip is fine:)
You are right , I don't understand you. How come I will?
Even we fail to understand someone we meet everyday then there must be lot of disconnect in knowing each other virtuallly.
Is there any restriction for a jesuit to be poetic?
That's fine if you don't see any difference among people of different part with your jesuit eyes, but others might have different perspectives.
Lot of things are happening differently ? Am I right? Have a good day.
Sep 22 2011: well, i'm somewhat reluctant to admit that i'm somewhat more hostile to the proposed idea. i think that there is NO first world and third world. hans rosling convincingly showed us that the world is a much much more complex place. so sorry, but if you still believe that there is a third world, i want to slap you on the face. because you didn't listen. wise up! you still have a chance!
Debra Smith 200+
Sep 25 2011: Robert thanks for asking. We jesuits knows that all the world is our home. The tags (first, second, third...) are just temporary descriptions. I've found the worst poverty in Hollywood and the best spirit in a lumpen around Mexico city or Calcuta. The people is the point, the focus. I'm dedicated to the ancient texts, and others companions are in the field, working with the poorest people that you can imagine. So, for me and for us as company we have the reach point by the human realities. In my first times I've working with Vicente Ferrer, ex jesuit, in India, where he saves more than a million people to die by hunger. I' learned and understand a lot there. So the political tags for the world are meaningless for me.
Salim we dont have any restriction in the poetic field. And of course that all the world dont have to see with our own perspective. The real thing is be aware that we know to serve. And serve to love.
Debra Smith 200+Sep 25 2011: I believe that the exercise that Salim has created here is to help us begin to perceive our own stereotypes, our own mental structures which shape the way we think about the different areas of the world. I think just becoming aware of the way we personally categorize things is valuable and I am grateful for what Salim is attempting here.
Sep 25 2011: Hi Salim,
Nice to join you in conversation again.
The answer is both.
For me there is only one big world. I don't have to go far away to India or Somalia to see poverty and famine, I can, for instance, walk down The Strand in Central London, at any time; and that's just one street. The same way I don't have to go too far to see the abuse of power and prominent injustice.
Sep 23 2011: That's a good question as well which could defintely jump in to mind.
Answer is that's in the middle.
Please find my answer below to your question "...but what are ya gonna do?"
Lets' face the fact. Once we can face it may be we can try to change it if necessary otherwise what we will change ? (That's what Iis already explained above in the thread at the begining)
Thanks for thoughts
Thomas Jones 100+Sep 23 2011: Hi Salim,
It's an interesting question. I've lived in what we could call, First-, Second-, and Third-world countries. (And I've been in parts of the world that would be lucky if we called them 99th-world. For example, Southern Ethiopia, near the Kenyan and Somali borders.)
The only thing I have ever felt I could do about it was treat the people I interact with with compassion, humility, and respect.
I don't see BIG solutions. I see small ones.
Sep 24 2011: Hi ThomasThanks for sharing learning from your experience. Can't agree more what you said about "compassion, humility and respect" and actually that seems to me the BIG solution.
Again my feeling is that those 3 virtues are greatly impacted by perception as well...... if deep back in mind one has some specific perception to someone that seems have definite impact on those 3 virtues....
Just to share with you, I am from a country wihich is labeled to be 3rd world, lived in highly rich economy like Singapore, lavish luxury of Saudi (as a spectator) now again in another 3rd world country. Met sufficient people from europe & US in different group setting either going there or somewhere else countries , so have a sort experience about different perceptions and outlooks.
Just exploring here in TED about that perception Vs my real life experience, .... ...
Comment deleted
Sep 18 2011: No, exploitation, greed shame. applies to how the 1st world has treated the third world under the guise of aid and humanitraian assitance..no less. It was made possible, of course, by corrupt governments and leaders in the exploited countries who chose to share in the wealth at the expense of their people and their nations resources.
Sep 18 2011: "Where's the second?"
Is the term even still valid? I know what it is/was, but when's the last time you heard anyone use it?
(I'll answer seriously when I wake up; I just got back from the office because the alarm went off. Somehow that didn't factor into the "should I run my own business" equation.)
Sep 18 2011: Yes right you are logically there should be second, and it's there may be, but not used that much.
I think so it's still valid, you might have different opinion which is appreciated as well. The world 3rd world is more used than first world so partially your question of non validity can apply to First World as a direct name. However the first world is mimicked by words like Developed world/ western world or simply west, sometimes G7 or G8 etc....
I had some discussion on these terms right here in TED, will find out those thread and give those link for you to check.
Thanks for your time and interest.
Sep 20 2011: I think originally 2nd world countries were those "developing" nations like Mexico, Korea and Brazil and others. It seems rather funny now with countries like Korea and Brazil huh? So 1st world were developed, 2nd developing and 3rd Undeveloped.
I still have to ask, what does developed mean and do I really want it if I could get it?
Sep 26 2011: I am with you on the "do I really want it if I could get it?"
I've picked my three "awake" words:
- validation,
- illusion,
- corruption.
And no, they are not my first three words, those were as stated, and a reflection of my anti-authoritarian nature, I suppose. "Whose definitions are these and what do they even mean?"
I'm afraid I see the world in shades of "agenda" - even when it comes to the war between science and religion. It is one thing I have learned about myself since participating in these fora.

Don Cornelius -- who famously created "Soul Train" was found dead in his Sherman Oaks, CA home this morning ... and law enforcement sources tell us it appears he committed suicide.
We're told cops discovered the body at around 4 AM PT. Law enforcement sources tell us ... Cornelius died from a gunshot wound to the head and officials believe the wound was self-inflicted.
We're told Cornelius was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
"Soul Train" changed the landscape of television when it debuted in 1971 and ran until 2006.
Officials have notified Don's family.
Cornelius was 75.
During Don's bitter divorce proceedings in 2009, he told an L.A. judge he was suffering from "significant health issues" and wanted to "finalize this divorce before I die."
Cornelius was arrested in 2008 for beating up his wife. He pled no contest to misdemeanor domestic violence and was placed on 3 years probation. His probation just terminated.
The divorce was granted in 2010.
Sources close to Don tell us ... the TV icon was plagued with health issues for years ... including a stroke and a condition that required brain surgery.
8:10 AM PST -- Shawn Holley -- Don's lawyer and good friend -- tells TMZ, "This is devastating news. Don was a kind, funny and brilliant man. Even though his many health battles had left him frail, he remained vibrant, courtly and always sharp as a tack."
So sad. My God be with his family at this time of berievement. And may the Lord forgive Don for taking his own life, if this is true and bless his soul, either way.
Hard to believe but you don't really know people unless you're in there world. It's unfortunate that his life ended with that type of decision. RIP Soul Man!!
It's a sad thing that someone who brought us all so much love, peace and soul would find it hard to have the happiness and peace his Soul Train brought to our American culture.
Wow R.I.P. Mind blower
I like.thanks
Thoughts and Prayers going out to Family and Friends for man who Made Soul Train..... RIP Don Cornelius...<3
Damn, a sad sad day. RIP Don
RIP to a legend.....this is so sad!
Is this not a shame
My heart aches after hearing this news.....I feel like I had a special connection growing up with him every saturday morning...Rest In Peace
RIP Don!
They killed him
Such sad news RIP the King of Sooooulllllll!
R.I.P DON you will truly be missed........

The San Francisco 49ers addressed a need at the linebacker spot by selecting Wisconsin's Chris Borland in the third round of the NFL draft Friday night at No. 77.
General manager Trent Baalke is protecting himself at the position given All-Pro NaVorro Bowman is recovering from a serious left knee injury sustained in the NFC championship game at Seattle. In addition, pass-rushing specialist Aldon Smith could face a suspension from the NFL for his various troubles off the field over the past eight months.
Borland, who met with the 49ers at the combine, ended his Badgers career as the school's sixth-leading tackler with 410, and he also is reliable in pass coverage. He had 15 forced fumbles, nine fumble recoveries, a blocked punt and 17 sacks.

When some other manufacturers announce armored variants of their vehicles, we sometimes wonder why. When Maybach announces an armored variant of their 62 luxury sedan, we wonder what took them so long. The engineers over at Sindelfingen, Germany, equipped Maybach's 62 with integrated safety systems to suit all the very important people that need protection while traveling in the ultimate luxury sedan.
Maybach boasts that their armored version of the 62, dubbed 62 Guard, only weighs 895-lbs more than the non-armored version. Its reinforcement comes from a specially-made armor featuring steel and high-tech Kevlar that's integrated into the body shell. Maybach also claims that the base of the Maybach Guard was already designed for the additional weight, so no additional changes were made to the drivetrain, suspension or brakes.
Most importantly though is the fact that Maybach is the only armored car in the world that can reach a top speed of 155-mph. The Maybach 62 Guard can also receive almost all the same options of individualization that a standard Maybach can receive. No pricing was announced.
Official press release available after the break.

this is really where i come from as well. dream shards aren't worth much these days, and since i've already got my enchanting maxed out (and three stacks of dream shards in my bags) i will just say at the the start "I can DE if you want" and just greed roll everything. that sets the pace for the run, and i'll DE anything that I get greeded or otherwise. unfortunately, that leaves some funniness at the end when the one purple drops from heroics. most people don't usually need the upgraded purple but everyone greeds anyhow because "zomg its purpel epix". if i ended up with two or more dream shards or one abyss crystal, i'll say something like "roll if you need a shard" or "whisper me if you need a shard" and it ends up not mattering much because a) i've got plenty so i don't mind giving them out as everyone "proper and due loot" from the run, and b) because most people don't care enough to roll on dream shards anyhow, and if they do, i'll gladly give them one or two.
abyss crystals are a little different. at the start of 3.2 and reg TotC farming, I DE'ed everything and everyone got a crystal at the end. a week into it though, i realised that the market was saturated and it wasn't worth worrying about anyway. i also stopped running the 5 man Trial a few days after its release anyhow (thanks for making it interesting for a few days though blizz).

New framework for understanding the energetics of ionic liquids – A new study provides clues into the understanding of the behavior of the charged molecules or particles in ionic liquids. The new framework may lead to the creation of cleaner, more sustainable, and nontoxic batteries, and other sources of chemical power.
ionic liquids
Biofuels blend right in: Researchers show ionic liquids effective for pre-treating mixed blends of biofuel feedstocks – Blending different feedstocks and milling the mixture into flour or pellets has significant potential for helping to make biofuels a cost-competitive transportation fuel technology.
Reducing the cost of oxygen enrichment – A simple synthesis using ionic liquids reduces the cost of studying micro-porous oxide materials by NMR. This could help scientists uncover the chemistry and interactions that occur inside these materials. Reference: J. M. Griffin Chem. Sci., 2012, DOI: 10.1039/C2SC20155K

Watts was initially charged with 2nd Degree Vehicular Homicide and driving with an expired license. Those charges have now been dropped.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Thursday, April 08, is Child Abuse Awareness Day and the focus in part is on Lubbock, since our city has an unfortunate distinction.
"We have high numbers, it's higher than the state average, last year there were about almost 1,500 children confirmed victims," said Patti Patterson, M.D., with the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center's Department of Pediatrics. "The sad part of that is we know that a lot of children who are victims of neglect and abuse never reach the system."
Dr. Patterson says child abuse is most common is kids under age four. If you suspect child abuse or neglect, the hotline to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services is 1-800-252-5400.

How to Cure Feeling Like You're About to Faint
Everyone gets that feeling like they're about to faint, and it isn't fun. Read on, and find out how to stop it.
1Sit down with your knees up, and put your head between your legs.Ad
2Take deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth whilst in this position, keeping your eyes closed. Once the initial feeling has gone, move on to step three:
3Open your eyes slowly, and even more slowly, sit up.
4Eat something fibrous or with a lot of protein: cereal bars, oatmeal/porridge, or something sugary: chocolate etc. The faint feeling may be from hunger, so get cramming!
5Drink some plain water; feeling faint is sometimes due to dehydration.
6Give your temples a quick massage or rub.
7Splash some cold water on your face.
8Rest for an hour or so. Don't exercise for a while, depending on the severity of your faintness.
9Ensure that you get a good night's rest (although you should be doing that anyway).Ad
Are you an expert on card tricks?
If so, share what you know about how to do a cool card trick.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
We are a bit smarter today because of you.
- Always eat right and drink enough.
- When exercising, don't push yourself too hard. Realize your limits, you're only human.
- If it's severe fainting and you can barely walk, seek medical help immediately.
- Always fully hydrate before exercising.
- Do not put excessive pressure on your temples when massaging them because this can be very damaging; a light pressure is enough.
- Frequent bouts of feeling faint may signify something serious. If you suffer from this fairly frequently, get it checked by a doctor.

Wednesday, the 17th of September, 1656.
Parliament meets.
Approval of Members.
Sir T. Widdrington chosen Speaker.
Dr. Owen thanked.
ON Wednesday the 17 th of September 1656, being
the First Day of the Meeting of this Parliament,
His Highness the Lord Protector, attended by the Lord
President, and the rest of his Highness' Council, and
other Officers of State, came to the Abbey Church in
Westminster; where also the Members of Parliament
met; and heard a Sermon, preached by Doctor Owen,
Dean of Christ Church, and Vice-Chancellor of the
University of Oxford; and from thence his Highness
came to the Painted-Chamber, where most of the
Members of Parliament were present: To whom his
Highness communicated the Occasion of Calling this
present Parliament.
After which the Members repaired to the House; at
the Door whereof, some Persons, by his Highness' Appointment, attended, and received, of every Member, a
Certificate from the Clerk of the Commonwealth in
Chancery, that he was returned to serve in this present
Parliament, and approved by the Council; and thereupon
he was admitted into the House.
The House being met, the Lord Commissioner Lisle
rose up, and put the House in mind, That their First
Work is to choose a Speaker; and that there was
amongst them, in the House, a Person of great Integrity
and Experience, in relation to this Parliament-Work,
and every Way qualified for that Service; and by the
Leave of the House, proposeth Sir Thomas Widdrington
Knight, Serjeant at Law, one of the Commissioners of
his Highness' Treasury: Which was well approved of by
a general Call of him to the Chair.
He, standing up in his Place, made an Apology for
himself, that the Matters to be transacted are great, as
was also his own Weakness, both of Mind and Body, prosessing himself to be surprized; and desires the House
to think of some other Person more worthy: But being
generally called on by the House, he was, by the Lord
Commissioner Fienes, and the Lord Commissioner Lisle,
brought and placed in the Chair, the usual Place of the
Speakers: Where, being set, he did again represent to
the House, his own Insufficiency for that Place; and that
he was wholly surprized in it, fearing lest, though they
did not believe what he had said in way of Excuse before,
yet they might have too much Cause to believe it afterwards; acknowleging the great Favour and Respect of
the House to him herein; and praying, that as it was their
Love that called him to that Service, so if he did err
therein, as he was of all Men most apt to do, the same
Love would pardon it.
Ordered, by the Parliament, That Mr. Maidston, and
the Lieutenant of the Tower, do give the hearty Thanks
of this House to Dr. Owen, Dean of Christ Church, and
Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, for his great
Pains taken in his Sermon, preached this Day in the
Abbey Church in Westminster, before his Highness the
Lord Protector, and the Members elected to sit this
present Parliament: And that he be desired to print his
Sermon; and that no Man presume to print it without
his Leave.
There being some Dispute whether the House should
adjourn till To-morrow Morning, or till Friday Morning;
upon the Question, It was
Resolved, That the House do adjourn itself till Tomorrow Morning Eight of the Clock: And Mr. Speaker
did adjourn the House accordingly.

When Less Is More: Optimal Patent Breadth under the Threat of Patent Validity Challenges
AbstractThis article determines the optimal breadth of patent protection for a drastic process innovation when the innovator faces the likelihood of a direct patent validity challenge by a third party and potential entry and infringement by a competitor who provides a technologically equivalent process. The effect of the innovator's patent breadth decision on the entrant's incentive to generate a competing process and on the entrant's ability to enter the market is also examined. Analytical results show that the greater the patent breadth, the smaller the entrant's incentive to develop a non-infringing process and the optimal flow of research and development spending. However, when patent breadth can be used to deter entry, the incumbent always prefers to deter entry by choosing the smallest patent breadth possible that could achieve entry deterrence. In addition, when entry cannot be deterred, it is never optimal for the incumbent to claim the maximum patent breadth possible.

As a husband, father of two young children, cookbook author, magazine and book editor, and cast member of the highly successful PBS show America's Test Kitchen, who also does all the cooking for his family, Jack Bishop is an expert at making appealing vegetarian meals that work in real time.
Cooking with seasonal produce, says Bishop, is the best way to bring a welcome variety to dinners. In A Year in a Vegetarian Kitchen, Bishop guides cooks through the seasons with 248 simple recipes that draw from many traditions. For spring, there's Garlicky Greens in Soft Corn Tacos; for summer, Penne with Pan-Roasted Garlic, Sautéed Cherry Tomatoes, and Basil; and for fall, Pizza with Caramelized Onions and Thyme. In winter, when farmers' markets are a distant memory in most parts of the country, dinners include Pan-Glazed Tofu with Thai Red Curry Sauce and Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Mushrooms.
In concise sidebars that accompany each recipe, Bishop gives readers the benefit of his ten years of experience at Cook's Illustrated, covering everything from choosing winter squash, preparing fennel, and making perfect fried rice to buying the best grater.

Rudy Carpenter
Thu Apr 5, 2012 5:31 pm Cowboys claimed QB Rudy Carpenter off waivers from the Bucs.
Fantasy Source Spin: The former Arizona State star has spent the majority of the past two seasons on the Bucs' practice squad. With Kyle Orton and Stephen McGee behind Tony Romo, Carpenter is a roster longshot in Dallas.

Wed Apr 4, 2012 2:48 pm Buccaneers waived QB Rudy Carpenter.
Fantasy Source Spin: Carpenter was a favorite of the old Tampa coaching staff, but the new regime didn't even want to keep him on a minimum salary of $615,000. It's probably not a great sign for Carpenter's career. Carpenter did play college ball under Dirk Koetter at Arizona State. Perhaps he'll resurface in Falcons camp.

Sat Dec 3, 2011 4:46 pm Bucs promoted QB Rudy Carpenter from the practice squad.
Fantasy Source Spin: It's a sign Josh Freeman (shoulder) will be a true game-time decision Sunday against the Panthers. Carpenter will back up Josh Johnson if Freeman can't go. A third-year undrafted free agent, Carpenter has yet to attempt an NFL pass.
Sat Sep 3, 2011 11:17 am Bucs waived QB Rudy Carpenter.
Fantasy Source Spin: The Bucs are reportedly hoping he'll accept a spot on the practice squad. Carpenter had a mostly solid preseason, completing 24-of-42 passes for 388 yards and two touchdowns.
Sun Dec 19, 2010 11:56 am Buccaneers declared QB Rudy Carpenter, S Larry Asante, CB D.J. Johnson, FB Erik Lorig, OG Brandon Carter, OT Will Barker, WR Dezmon Briscoe, and DE George Johnson inactive for Week 15 against the Lions.
Fantasy Source Spin: Mike Williams and Kellen Winslow were the only offensive players on the injury report this week, and both players are starting against the Lions.
Sun Dec 5, 2010 3:13 pm Buccaneers have declared QB Rudy Carpenter, WR Preston Parker, WR Dezmon Briscoe, OT Will Barker, OG Brandon Carter, LB Dekoda Watson, DL Frank Okam and FS Larry Asante inactive for Week 13.
Fantasy Source Spin: Tampa Bay is relatively healthy, as none of their starters on either side of the ball are inactive. Carpenter will serve as the emergency third QB behind Josh Freeman and Josh Johnson.
