Oh! You guys wanna talk online campaigns? The Change.org petition is over 10,000 signatures already.
Yes. Though if they were going to call it a day, I think they would have removed that board by now. They are probably using it to get more response and they surely are getting it.Originally Posted by Soul

Pretty awesome that the official Adult Swim twitter account has responded tho this with a "stay tuned." Maybe something will happen. Adult Swim Action is something I avoid altogether anyway, but maybe the fun Toonami branding would make it more interesting, revitalize it a bit.
Here's the deal, I'm the best there is. I wake up in the morning and I urinate excellence. And nobody can hang with my stuff. I'm just a big hairy American winning machine.
I'm very humble, too.
They may as well go ahead and do it considering the interest they've garnered. I know they like to use Saturday night for running gags regarding ratings, but why not put it to better use?

I need help selecting an OC device for my Wife. We just found out that her employers no weapons policy does not include OC devices.
Long story short, we're both going to get OC devices to carry.
I really like the idea of the Kimber LifeAct Guardian Angel, but there are other options for us as well. Help me choose. Any input as to why you would choose one over the other would be great too.

helo all i upgraded to the 150/10 from 75/2 but when i do speed test only shows me that i get 75-90 my upload shows 10 all the time.when i contact rogers and they do the test always comes up as 250+ and they say nothing wrong but when i dl i only get speeds of 50-65mbps.could it be my settings that i have wrong or my pc to old and can`t keep up??any suggestions TIA
Is your LAN 100mbit or Gigabit? If only 100mbit, then that explains your 90megabit max speed tests.As for downloads of 50-65mbps, if this is a single source download then that's not actually that bad. You'll likely need to download multiple files from multiple sources to use all 150mbps of download capacity.
As for downloads of 50-65mbps, if this is a single source download then that's not actually that bad. You'll likely need to download multiple files from multiple sources to use all 150mbps of download capacity.
my connection says gigabit Ethernet and when i use newsgroups i was getting same speeds as the 75/2 so not sure whats going on or how to check for sure am getting 150/10 since am paying for that
Run a couple different online speedtests. Works like a charm.........
Can we get a confirmation on what router you are using to ensure it's capable of gigabit?As for newsgroups you may need more concurrent connections to achieve higher speeds. I'm probably using the wrong terminology for this but I don't use newsgroups regularly.
ok am using the hitron modem/router and i got 20 conections open for newsgroups
Your usenet provider probably can't/won't send at 150Mbps. I can't max out my connection with Newshosting, as an example. Who is your usenet provider?
Only one answer to that problem...PRIVATE TRACKER. I have been able to max out my connection with enough seeders, that's only possible on private tracker. Anything public and you are asking for slow speed, even usenet is technically speed limited based on the server.Edit: Almost forgot, youtube can max out that 150mbps as well, only in 1080p though and it must be a rogers toronto server and it must be off peak hours lol, otherwise its about 25-100mbps as it varies a lot
so might as well down grade whats the point of paying for this if i can`t max and provider is astrawebBTW THX for answers
You need a different usenet provider anyway. Since Astra has automated their DMCA takedowns, they're not worth using. Or so I've heard. I get 14-16 MB/s with Newshosting and 30 connections. If you want to pay for it, you can get 60 connections.Check here for better choices than Astra.»www.ngrblog.com/

Posts tagged Large Hadron Collider
Posts tagged Large Hadron Collider
Particle physics explores the structure of matter by studying the behaviour of its most fundamental constituents. Despite the remarkable success of our theories, there remains much that is fundamental but unexplained. One of our most pressing questions concerns the origin of mass. Our favoured theoretical explanation for the existence of mass also predicts the existence of a particle that has never been seen—the Higgs boson. In this review, we survey our knowledge of the Higgs boson and explain why, if the theory is correct, we should expect to make our first observation of the elusive Higgs in the next few years, when a major new particle physics facility starts operating. This will be the most powerful particle accelerator in the world. Although searching for the Higgs boson will be challenging in this environment, we hope that our experimental results will allow us to finally understand the origin of mass and extend our knowledge of the Universe yet further.
Putting your hand in the Large Hadron Collider
What would happen if I put my hand into the Large Hadron Collider?
(Source: incomprehensibleuniverse)
17:31 04 May 2011 by David Shiga
Now you see it, now you don't. Rather like a conjurer's white rabbit, the elusive Higgs boson may have slipped from sight again.
A recent report hinted at a glimpse of the long-sought particle at a major detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN near Geneva, Switzerland. But a second detector has now checked its own data and found no corroborating sign of the particle.
The Higgs boson is thought to endow other particles with mass, but has yet to be observed. Four physicists associated with the LHC's ATLAS detector claimed to have found an anomalous "bump" in its data, possibly due to Higgs particles decaying into pairs of photons. An abstract of their study was leaked online in April.
Now physicists working on the LHC's other main detector, CMS, have come up empty in an initial search for a similar bump in their data, according to a document shown to New Scientist. So ATLAS's bump may not be due to Higgs particles, after all, but instead down to something mundane, such as an error in the analysis.
The internal CMS document has not been released to the public, so the result is still preliminary, as was the news of the original ATLAS bump, for that matter, which was leaked before it was reviewed or endorsed by the ATLAS collaboration.
Both leaks are a testament to the excitement surrounding the Higgs. With a result this hot on the horizon, expect more fits and starts in the months to come.
Scientists have discovered X-ray stripes in the remains of a supernova that may be the first direct evidence that these exploded stars can accelerate particles to energies a hundred times higher than those achieved with the Large Hadron Collider, the most powerful particle accelerator on Earth.
The striking 3-D-esque image of the Tycho supernova remnant was made from a long observation with NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. It could explain how some of the extremely energetic particles bombarding the Earth, called cosmic rays, are produced.
(source: incomprehensibleuniverse)
Over 3x10^22 cosmic rays with energies of 10^17 eV or more, equal to or greater than the LHC energy, have struck the Earth's surface since its formation. This means that Nature has already conducted the equivalent of about a hundred thousand LHC experimental programmes on Earth already – and the planet still exists.

Workers walk around the ATLAS detector's calorimeter during the Large Hadron Collider's winter maintenance period. The LHC's proton beams were restarted over the weekend.
After a winter maintenance break, Europe's Large Hadron Collider went back into operation this weekend, beginning a marathon that scientists hope will lead to theory-twisting breakthroughs.
Argonne National Laboratory's Thomas LeCompte, who is physics coordinator for the LHC's ATLAS detector, said the particle accelerator resumed shooting proton beams around its 17-mile-round (27-kilometer-round) underground ring on Saturday night. James Gillies, a spokesman for Europe's CERN nuclear research center, told me that proton-on-proton collisions could resume within a week.
During the next two years, the underground particle accelerator could produce data pointing to the nature of dark matter, or the discovery of a whole new class of unanticipated subatomic curiosities, or the existence of extra dimensions … or the presence of the Higgs boson, the so-called "God Particle" that could explain why some particles have mass and others don't.
"By the end of next year, we hope very much that we will be able to say something about the Higgs," said Felicitas Pauss, head of international relations at Europe's CERN nuclear research center.

What would happen if I put my hand into the Large Hadron Collider?
(source: incomprehensibleuniverse)
Trained in nuclear physics, [Walter L.] Wagner heads a group called Citizens Against the Large Hadron Collider that he has established to warn against potential doomsday scenarios. One such scenario is the production of microscopic black holes that somehow manage to persist. This could happen, he conjectures, if Hawking's radiation proves ineffective or nonexistent. After all, he points out, it has never actually been observed. The enduring mini-black hole would either pass right through Earth, like a neutrino, or be captured by Earth's gravity. Suppose the latter is true. Once embedded in the core of our planet, he speculates, it could engorge itself with more and more material, growing bigger and bigger, and threaten our very existence. As Sancho and Wagno describe in their complaint:
'Eventually, all of Earth would fall into such a growing micro-black hole, converting Earth into a medium-sized black hole, around which would continue to orbit the moon, satellites, the ISS [International Space Station] etc.'

I love these chairs!!! The colors are exactly as shown. I have a counter height dining room table and just painted my walls an orangish-terra cota color and these chairs go perfectly. They're sturdy and very comfortable. It took my a while to put the first chair together (I bought 4) but the rest were a piece of cake. IF YOU'RE ON THE FENCE ABOUT THESE CHAIRS...DON'T BE....GET THEM, YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!!
Very happy with shipping time and the product!! Everything was in perfect condition, pictures were accurate with color matches, prices were fabulous!
The color on site was actually a bit brighter than the actual product, but it still worked with my decor. Good sturdy construction, came with glue, but didn't use, because I might want to replace the fabric at some point, and it will be easier without the glue in the joints. The product was exactly as described, except the fabric was flocked, instead of comopletely woven.
We purchased these barstools to compliment the set of chairs that we bought that are of the same pattern but blue in color (also at Overstock). My kids use these as we mostly use our counter as our dining table. Given that they are only 3 and 6 these chairs appear to be sturdy enough for their everyday use. Assembly was pretty easy. Make sure you pay attention to the description of the screw length and not rely only on the picture as there was one that appears longer in the picture that was really the mid length one. I noticed that after so we had to switch some screws. You need to glue the wood that you step on. After the first chair the second was a breeze. I bought plastic chair covers atr ************** so they wont get dirty but the covers dont fit them properly (lil small). No biggie I still used them I just taped the sides together.
These bar stools looked even better in person. The colors blend very well with my kitchenette so I am glad that I purchased them. The only things that I hate is that they are not as tall as I'd hoped so that when sitting a person would actually be at least chest height to my counter. However, I am 5,3" so it could just be that. Once put together the chairs were not level and have a slight "rock" to them when touched.
Love my new cool stools. We're bigger people and the stools are sturdy enough for us with my husband's extra glue and possibly different screws.

I'm female, middle-aged, and have been tolerating this crap for years. It's rare that I can walk to the store without individuals leaning out their windows and yelling filthy words and remarks at me. They all appear to be in their late teens or early twenties. While I don't know whether or not they're students, it's always occurred within a couple of blocks from Lincoln High School.
Des Moines, Iowa—Hollaback! Des Moines, a grassroots volunteer organization, has launched a new campaign in partnership with RAYGUN to raise community awareness against street harassment.
"Street harassment is unwanted attention in public spaces, often based on gender expression or perceived sexuality, and it is treated as a given by many women, girls and LGBT individuals. Meanwhile, most people who are not harassed do not realize how much it happens," said Becca Lee, director of Hollaback! Des Moines.
The movement encourages community members to take a public stance against street harassment, such as catcalling, unwanted sexual comments and disparaging remarks, through sharing stories and creative activism. This month, individuals can purchase a RAYGUN t-shirt, with 50 percent of proceeds benefiting Hollaback! Des Moines.
"There are countless t-shirts that promote sexual harassment, but very few that call out harassing behaviors. We're proud to partner with RAYGUN to use smart t-shirt humor to put the joke back on the harasser instead of the target," Lee said.
"People who harassingly shout at others from a distance may be under the impression that's the best way to communicate. We wanted to have a small part in dissuading that behavior," said Mike Draper, owner and founder of RAYGUN.
Lee says she founded the Hollaback! Des Moines chapter in 2011 after years of experiencing street harassment as a college student.
"There was a week where I couldn't go outside my apartment building without hearing a harasser yell something vulgar at me," says Lee. "The guy knew where I lived, what kind of car I drove, and I felt very unsafe to go about my daily life."
Hollaback! encourages people to speak out about harassment and see the connection between harassment on the street and sexual assault and other forms of violence.
"Harassment is a gateway crime in that it isn't illegal, but it creates a cultural environment where gender-based violence and rape is taken less seriously," says Jessica Staskal, communications specialist at the Iowa Coalition Against Sexual Assault. "By working to bring awareness and an end to street harassment, we hope to create a safer, more welcoming community for all."
T-shirts are available for purchase at RAYGUN in Des Moines or online at www.raygunsite.com. For more information, email email@example.com.
Hollaback! Des Moines is among more than 79 teams across 26 countries who are using grassroots organizing and mobile technology to end street harassment. The movement provides a free mobile app for reporting street harassment safely and anonymously. The app is available in nine languages for iPhone and Droid.
Hollaback! is an international movement dedicated to ending street harassment using mobile technology. By collecting stories from women and LGBTQ individuals in a safe and share-able way, Hollaback! is creating a crowd-sourced initiative to end street harassment.Share your story at desmoines.ihollaback.org, find us on Facebook at facebook.com/HollabackDSM or follow us on Twitter at @Hollaback_DSM.
A man who works in Fairfield, Iowa is a street harasser and abuser. He is short and bald and yells from his apartment window on Broadway.
My runs are typically in the early morning, but this guy I'm seeing always run in the evening. He was telling just how magical neighborhoods can look in the dark and recommended that I should try it (helps that it's usually cooler at night). I was running down Ingersoll at a pretty slow pace when I heard two men whistle at me. One shouted, "You can't do this to us! Shame on you!" And that's exactly what I felt: shame. Shame for being a woman. Shame for having breasts. Shame for being a sexual person. I flicked these men off and shouted "Fuck you!" I realized then that I could be putting myself in very real danger– quickly ditching my light jog for a sprint. I very much considered stopping two women enjoying a drink outside a restaurant in hopes that they would validate my reaction.
I had gotten off work and was waiting for my bus to arrive just up the street. I had my headphones on, listening to music. I saw these two guys across the road, just staring at me, walking slowly. I could hear them whistling and cat calling, but I pretended I was oblivious. They made there way over to where I was just as I got on the bus. They said some inappropriate stuff, and it was obvious they were following me, so the bus driver didn't let them on!
Jess is the resident crazy cat-lady of the Hollaback! Des Moines team.
So we've all heard of Cats Against Catcalling, right? No? THEY'RE AMAZING AND I WANT TO HUG WHOEVER CAME UP WITH THE IDEA. I love feminism. I also love cats. This is like when someone first put cheese on pasta. It was heaven. So I decided to round up my favorite cats + anti-street harassment pictures to share with you (some from CAC, some from elsewhere on the interwebs). Enjoy, Feminist Cat Ladies (And Men!)
Do you have a favorite #CatAgainstCatcalling? Share it with us in the comments, tweet us at @Hollaback_DSM, share on our Facebook, or Tumblr!

However, you want to make sure that you cut your meat or tofu in even pieces. I cut my meat in slices or I would cube my tofu. I make my slices a 1⁄2 inch thick. However cut those mofos however you want.
2. Now take all of those wonderful vegetables and think of that dumb ass who believes that honking a horn is legitimate way to get your attention. Whatever happened to just saying hi to people? Grab the biggest knife you have because all badasses have badass knives. It is time to get to slicing. So you get to slice all those tasty vegetables for your amazing fajitas.
3. Now it is time to play with fire!!! If you can't stand the heat, then get the hell out of the kitchen.
4. Grab the largest skillet that you can find and pour the 2 tablespoons of oil on the pan and turn your stove top on medium high and wait a few minutes. The oil needs to get nice and hot.
5. I'm a lazy badass, so I will add my vegetables to the skillet and let them cook for 5-8 minutes.
6. Then I will add my meat because that is how I roll and I cook my food how I want.
7. Now you can add the fajita seasoning with water
8. Or I say fuck that seasoning! I personally don't use fajita seasoning and just add a seasoning blend of my choice (onion power, garlic power, pepper, salt & chili peppers).
9. I make sure my meat is cooked and my veggies are soft and bam I'm done.
10. Now bump society standards and it is time to dig in. I grab my store bought tortillas, put my meat and veggies on top, add all the toppings a woman could dream of and take a huge bite and think that this is how every day should end: a badass meal, with some badass libations, hanging out with my badass friends.
Like what Lauren is cooking up? Tell her about it in the comments!
Let's talk about how catalling is trivialized, ok?
I recently had a conversation (one which I'm sure every woman has had) trying to explain that catcalling is NOT A FUCKING COMPLIMENT. Yes, a man shouting things at me isn't particularly a hanging offence, but what many people don't realize is that street harassment is on a spectrum of violence, violence that often targets women and LGBTQ folks in particular. It's so common and so easy for harassers to cross from street harassment to physical and sexual violence.
To explain, check out this infographic that I stole from not-me.org. It explains things pretty well.

As we come to work everyday for Avnet on behalf of partners, suppliers, employees and shareholders, it always good to reflect why we do what we do and how far we've come. Avnet has been a big part of my life for 18 years and has given my family and myself a great opportunity to thrive personally and professionally. However, there are folks in the back ground who go beyond the call of duty to support us as we give our all for Avnet.
My biggest backer is my wife and this is a reflection of how our "teamwork" evolved and continues to change things for the better. I don't mean to say there are not difficult times too, which we have had to deal with, but life and business have a common theme of "change". Life like business can be "transformational" as the environment or things around us evolve. Life like business can throw some curve balls at you and you have to be "Innovated" to adapt to the new realities to create a better business, life or you. As an example, this is happening right before our eyes here at Avnet with new branding, new business models and investment in our employees as IT changes more rapidly than ever.
My reflection looking back is both personal and professional. As they say, sometimes, you have to look back to see how far you've come in preparation for what's in front of you. My writing is not intended to offend, change or suggest anything to anyone regarding love, relationships or spiritual belief. Its really intended to be a form of expression of the faith in people and in this case my wife who had managed to get the most out of me (sometimes painfully . I did take the opportuntiy to use Mother's Day as it is a day to celebrate all those mom's who make life so much better for us all.
The Boy Loves the Girl
My life has gotten better with you in it. A boy 21 and a girl 18 met on October 21, 1978. For the boy, it changed the rest of his life.
The boy in blue knew only of a small world and did not venture far from what was his real world. The girl took the boy by the hand and showed him that there was more to the land than the boy ever knew. The boy became excited and wanted more of the wealth and fruits of the land.
The girl helped and educated the boy and he began to grow. The boy in blue began to wear a tie and no more was there blue. The tie turned to a suit and tie. The boy in blue was no longer a worker in the field, but a manufacturing manager, a husband, a salesman, a father, a graduate, a sales manager, a business unit executive, a vice president and general manager, a vice president of sales and business development, a senior vice president and sales and today the boy who use to wear blue is a senior vice president and general manager. All this happened because of the spirit and the girl.
The girl helps the boy see things more clearly and had him focus because she knew the boy could do wonderful things if he would try. The boy has always been grateful that the girl has been there for him. The boy asks forgiveness for the times the boy acted like a fool. The boy prays to the spirit and asks for forgiveness as well. The boy never forgets and hides his head in shame as he remembers the times of trouble. The boy understands that being hard headed, mean, jealous and aloof are traits that a man of the spirit should not follow, especially with the one he loves. The boy pledges, prays and works for daily improvement.
The girl is sweet and life giving. She cares for all and has a heart of gold. The girl is beautiful both inside and out. The girl loves the boy. Always will and always has. The girl is proud of the boy and knows that he too has a good heart and good intentions. The boy asks the girl to continue to support and guide him for she and the spirit have taken what was bad soil and turned it into fertile soil and blessed the land. The girl is blessed by the spirit and he has given her the strength, wisdom, patience to guide and love the boy. The boy is forever thankful. For the boy knows the spirit can give and he can take way too.
The boy is thankful for the girl. The boy is committed to the girl until the day he turns to dust. Even then should he die before the girl, he will wait for her in Heaven, so they can reunite and be together forever. If the girl should go before the boy, the boy will love no other, for he will wait until he passes and reunite with her in Heaven. The girl will be in his heart forever. The spirit has blessed the boy with the girl and he is extremely thankful. The boy loves the girl. Always has and always will.
Thirty-six years later after the boy met the girl, he loves her more than ever. The boy cherishes every moment with her. The boy wishes the girl Happy Mother's Day! The boy loves the girl. Always has and always will.
Happy Mother's Day Mom's of the World!

There seams to be absolutely no support at all from the developers. I also noticed a great amount of unanswered topics with similar problems as mine.
So far, looks like a deserted forum. To bad because it's a good module (when it works).
I strongly recommend Devs from other groups that offer great support for their products, to create a similar component so I will (and probably a lot of people to) use theirs instead.
This has been an unsatisfied customer's review.

On June 4th, 2014 Justice Minister Peter MacKay introduced Bill C-36, the Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act. The draft legislation proposes a legal frameworkthat criminalises communication in public for the purpose of prostitution, the purchase ofsexual services, material benefit, and the advertisement of sexual services.
On December 20, 2013, the Supreme Court of Canada rendered a landmark decision that substantially reshaped Canada's legal framework regarding adult sex work. The case of Bedford v. Canada resulted in the striking down of three provisions of the Criminal Code: the communication, bawdy-house and living on the avails laws. The Court found that these three provisions violate section 7 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms (the "Charter") given their negative impact on sex workers' security of the person.
The present article was written by a member of NSWP.
A new resource has been loaded onto the resources section of the NSWP website that summarises the arguments for and against the Swedish Model. There is currently a lot of pressure on governments in Europe and in other countries across the world, to adopt the Swedish Model i.e. the criminalisation of the purchase of sex.

Martin Yale Intimus BCS412 Twelve Up Desktop Business Card Slitter Review
- The Martin Yale Intimus BCS412 desktop business card slitting machine is designed to help you produce twelve high quality business cards from a single letter sized sheet of paper. Plus it also provides you with the ability to score or perforate your printed documents.
- Cutting business cards using the BCS412 is usually a two step process. The machine will begin by cutting your letter sized sheet into three strips that are 3.5" x 8.5". You then take these three strips and feed them back into the machine and it will cut them into twelve 2" x 3.5" business cards. Or, if you print your business cards onto 2" x 3.5" stock you can cut the cards in a single step.
- However, the BCS412 is not only designed for creating business cards. The scoring and perforating features of this machine can be used to create event tickets, occasion cards, tent style business cards and other high quality custom items.
Features/ Strengths:
- The Martin Yale Intimus BCS412 can produce up to 375 finished business cards per minute. This allows users to create a run of 500 cards in less than two minutes and a run of 1000 cards in less than three minutes.
- The blades used on the BCS412 are semi-self sharpening. Although they will eventually become dull and need replacement, they are designed for years of maintenance free operation. This helps to keep the amount of money required to maintain the BCS412 to a minimum
- The BCS-412 is designed to cut business cards that are printed twelve up on a letter sized sheet of paper. This cutting pattern helps to maximize the productivity of the unit and yields 20% more business cards per sheet than a standard 10 up business card slitter for the same amount of money. This increased productivity helps to reduce paper usage, printing costs and the amount of labor required to produce your business cards.
- In addition to the business card cutting features of the BCS412 you can also use this machine as a perforating machine or scorer. This is ideal for printers and copy shops who are looking for a fast and easy way to create tent-style cards, event tickets, coupon books and occasion cards.
- The compact design of the BCS412 makes it ideal for locations where space is at a premium. It can conveniently sit on a counter or can be stored away when it is not in use.
- The BCS-412 is designed to cut a letter sized sheet into twelve business cards. You can make small adjustments to the machine to help ensure proper alignment when cutting but you can't cut custom sized cards or move the slitting blades to alternate positions. You also can not use the BCS412 to cut cards that are printed on any size of paper other than 8.5" x 11" or 3.5" x 8.5".
- The scoring feature on this machine uses a special scoring wheel that can be moved and adjusted as needed. This scoring wheel is designed to crease your document to prepare it for folding. However, if you attempt to use a scoring wheel on digitally printed output it may result in cracking. If you need to crease items in areas that are digitally printed you should test a sample first to see if cracking will occur. If you have problems with cracking you may end up needing to buy a completely separate compression scoring device to crease your documents.
- The BCS412 yields the maximum number of possible business cards from every letter sized sheet. However, the fact that the cards are so close together on your printed sheets means that it is impossible to use this machine for creating full bleed business cards.
- It is also important to remember that the BCS-412 is designed primarily for use with letter size 8.5" x 11" paper. It cannot cut business cards printed on legal sized sheets and has a maximum throat width of 11" for perforating or scoring.
- The Intimus BCS412 is an extremely robust machine that is perfect for small printers, in plant print shops and copy shops.
- It provides the ability to quickly and easily produce your own on demand business cards.
- It even give you the ability to your own custom perforating and scoring.
- However, it is not designed for dealing with large paper sizes, extremely high volumes or for creating full bleed business cards.

Poland's embattled central bank Governor Marek Belka vowed to keep a scandal over secretly recorded tapes from knocking monetary policy off track.
According to Nassim Nicholas Taleb, predictions based on statistics would be reliable only if they drew their data from the future as well as the past. Here's how he illustrates his point:
U.S. President Barack Obama and his administration weakened the country's economy by seeking to foster growth instead of paying down the federal debt, said Nassim Nicholas Taleb , author of "The Black Swan."
Events such as last week's stock market plunge that erased almost $1 trillion from U.S. equities usually have structural explanations, according to Nassim Nicholas Taleb , author of "The Black Swan."
Nassim Nicholas Taleb , who warned that unforeseen events can roil markets in "The Black Swan," said he is "betting on the collapse of government bonds" and that investors should avoid stocks.
Mark Spitznagel pushes the throttles on his new twin-engine Chris-Craft Corsair 28, slicing through Grand Traverse Bay in northern Michigan on a warm day in late July. As the speedboat reaches more than 50 miles per hour, Spitznagel's blond hair flying in the wind, he churns up a big wake.
Investor Warren Buffett enjoyed learning more about how his son tries to tackle world hunger, while fellow billionaire Carlos Slim studied how General Motors Co. and AT&T Inc. reinvented themselves.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb , author of "The Black Swan," said he's concerned budget deficits in the U.S. are spiraling out of control and may now represent a bigger problem than in countries such as Greece.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb , author of "The Black Swan," said British Prime Minister David Cameron is "the only thing we have left" to build a more robust economy, in an interview with the New Statesman magazine.
"It would allow the super-rich to scam taxpayers by getting free government sponsored insurance."

One of the things that constantly amazes me is the impact Jim Stacy has had on so many people; and the things he has inspired. Of course there is his tremendous personal courage, the fact he has maintained a wicked sense of humor and remains so supportive of his fans; but there are also lighter things as well.
Jim has inspired a lot of fan fiction. In fact, a baby picture of Jim as a toddler inspired Mary Hardwick (our beloved SouthernFrau) to write her wonderful "Brat Pack" stories; brilliant bits of fiction about a very young, very mischievous, tell-it-as-it-is little Johnny and his older brother, Squat. The stories are priceless.
In turn, Jim's inspiration for Mary's story became an even bigger inspiration for Mary's mother, Caroline. So much so, Caroline surprised Mary with a wonderful gift.
Let me introduce you to one more thing Jim has inspired: Baby Johnny, complete with red shirt, conchos and leather pants; and those absolutely wonderful blue eyes.
Who wouldn't be inspired to cuddle up with Baby Johnny?

It's icky and also despicable, but Republican primary voters wouldn't base their choice on that. If anything, I'd think being the victim of such a low prank might win him sympathy.
It's icky and also despicable, but Republican primary voters wouldn't base their choice on that. If anything, I'd think being the victim of such a low prank might win him sympathy.
All presidential candidates are ambitious, and these campaigns do take a toll on all families. I did wonder whether a male candidate would have been criticized in the same way Sarah Palin was, but now it seems that the answer is yes as Rick Santorum is getting a similar reaction. He struggles with the right answer himself, but when I talked to him I thought he came across as a heartbroken father trying to give meaning to a tragic situation. As for John Edwards, it was Elizabeth who wouldn't hear of him suspending the campaign. But that he should have been more considerate is definitely true!
I think the bigger issue is that Santorum's daughter can get all the healthcare she needs because the Santorums have access to health insurance. And Mr. Santorum is campaigning to take the access to healthcare away from the working class and poor. That makes him either very hypocritical or very cruel.
He doesn't see it that way, of course. He says that in countries where there is socialized medicine, there is less care for those "on the margins of life," like his daughter. But the Affordable Care Act mostly expands access through private insurance. And under the bill, insurers can't deny coverage to people like Bella who have a preexisting condidtion or disability.
Thank you so much for writing in, and I'm very sorry for your loss. We didn't talk about his feelings about parents who make a different decision, but I certainly appreciate your respect for his decision and situation. Someone else told me about a child in his family with Trisomy 18 that led to tragedy beyond the death of the child, and this is just such an impossibly hard circumstance that there is no right answer beyond compassion for all involved. Again, thank you.
Bella is definitely not being neglected; her mother spends full-time caring for her. He very forthrightly said his kids who were old enough to have an opinion were "all over the map" on whether he should be doing it.
I can't say because he doesn't see the law that way. But the evening I heard him speak in Iowa, he told a story about the law that might answer your question. He said that he learned the real motivation for health care reform in a conversation in the Fox News green room. It was right before the law was passed, and he'd run into the pundit Juan Williams, and asked him something like, "What are you guys thinking trying to ram through that law, since the public opposes it?" and according to him, Juan said that he'd just been with someone from the administration who had told him that "people love entitlements and once this passes we'll get them hooked." Williams is not, of course, part of the administration, and I cannot imagine anyone inside the White House talking or thinking about the law that way. But the audience loved the anecdote, and he repeated it to me in the interview as proof that the intent is to get us hooked and thus rob us of our freedom in a way that will change America forever.
He said that her biggest challenge is that she often has difficulty breathing, and even a cold can be life-threatening. The condition causes all sorts of developmental problems, but some people with Trisomy 18 have lived to adulthood, yes; my understanding is that some have lived into their 30s.
Great point; I'm sure there are others with ill spouses or children on the trail, and yes, maybe it is another argument for shorter campaigns.
That's interesting. But don't you think parents criticize one another's choices all the time, in ways that have nothing to do with politics? I think we often see choices different from our own as a reproach, and respond accordingly.
That's a good question. I think Santorum is spared criticism from his rivals not because of his daughter but because of his standing in the polls. It certainly did not seem to buffer Palin from anything.
Why not mention Joe Sestak, Melinda? His daughter is sick too, yet, because he's a Democrat, no mention was made about it last year (or in your article), and whether he should be campaigning. Also, the press (with the exception of the Nat'l Enquirer) was in love with John Edwards - unless you can cite specific examples, try to avoid the use of weasel words.
She was in remission when he ran -- which I just learned by looking it up, and it is a trusted source because it was on Politics Daily, which I used to run! But if I'd thought of it, yes, I would have added it. Don't know what 'weasel words,' you're referring to, but this doesn't seem like a partisan matter to me.
That's true. Elizabeth Edwards often cited Lincoln and said her husband would be a better president because he'd faced true hardship, including the death of their son Wade.
It's not the lack of money that's hurting him in Iowa, though; people there expect to meet the candidates, sometimes multiple times, before making a final decision. But if he were doing better in the polls, money would follow, and then he could afford to buy ads in states where money does matter.
It's true that I do not hear conservatives criticizing his decision to run. On the contrary, many conservatives see it as brave and as proof that he is "walking the walk" on the abortion issue and beyond. Whether that translates into support for his campaign a different matter, obviously.

Kamloops News
Rash of break-ins
RCMP in Kamloops are concerned following a rash of business break-ins over the past seven days.
Kamloops RCMP responded to two more business break and enters overnight and two other attempted cases.
These included The Great Canadian Oil Change on Summit Drive, Tirecraft in the Mt. Paul industrial area, Falcon Lanes in Valleyview and a business in the Cityview Centre on Hwy 5A.
"This is an unusually high number of break-ins to occur within the city, and is a continuation of a string of reports that have come in over the past week," says RCMP Cst. Cheryl Bush.
"Since April 21st, there have been a total of twelve businesses struck. In five of these instances, there was no entry gained, but an attempt made."
Bush says there are similarities in most of the cases, and police are putting together a strategy to address this sudden increase in activity.
"A collaborative approach will be taken to ensure that all units within the detachment play their key roles in identifying the person(s) responsible and taking them into custody.
The highest number of occurrences has been in Sahali, primarily the industrial park area, but it is obvious that this is not the only area that is being targeted."
Bush says the break-ins have been taking place between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m., typically a time with limited activity around business locations.
She says if you have an occupation that requires you to be out during those hours, "please observe and report anything that seems out of the ordinary."
We would ask the public to call Kamloops RCMP immediately with license plate numbers or descriptions of any suspicious vehicles and/or persons. You can also call Crime Stoppers with any information to help solve these crimes at 1-800-222-8477 to remain anonymous."

Las Vegas, NV (SportsNetwork.com) - New York Rangers forward Dominic Moore took home the Bill Masterton Trophy for perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.
The 33-year-old Moore returned to the league this season following the death of his wife, Katie. Moore had taken a leave of absence in order to care for Katie, who died in January 2013 of a rare form of liver cancer. He subsequently established the Katie Moore Foundation, which is dedicated to helping patients and families with rare cancers through research, advocacy and community.
Moore resumed his career with the Blueshirts and totaled six goals and 12 assists in 73 regular-season games, adding three goals and eight points over 25 postseason appearances.
The Harvard product bested New Jersey Devils forward Jaromir Jagr and Carolina Hurricanes forward Manny Malhotra for the honor. Minnesota goaltender Josh Harding won last year.

School Reviews
- September 28, 2013 - I went to this school from pre-k to 1st grade before transferring to public schools. I am currently a senior in high school. I remember a lot about Oak Chapel. I had lots of friends, I had great teachers, and the playground was amazing. I also remember participating in plays and dances which were required, but they were interesting. I also participated in a karate club which I abandoned because it did not meat my standards as a young child. We did crab walks and rolls, not much punching and kicking, and I grew impatient. Most importantly, I have not a single bad memory from this school. And academically, I was successful. I read my first book in kindergarten, Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss. Today, I am among the top 1% of students in writing, math, and critical reading. I''m not sure how much this school has changed in 10 years, but back then it was great, and I assume it only improved. - Posted by Student/Alumni

nawlins, homosexuality IS a mental health disorder which was removed from the DSM under duress in 1974. It's necessary to separate "homosexuals" from "gay activists". Gay activism is an agenda and homosexuals have lost their identity to this group. As evidenced by Clinton's same-sex law, if it were about homosexuals, the law would have been exclusive to homosexuals rather than blow the door wide open to all sexual deviants.These sexual deviants despise homosexuals and don't want to be identified as homosexual, a mental health disorder; hence, the name change to "gay". The first thing they did was to remove themselves from that disorder. I believe the APA has done homosexuals a grave disservice, not to mention mainstream America.

Agriculture and Food:
Farm Reorganizations and Their Impact on USDA Payments
T-RCED-87-40: Published: Jul 21, 1987. Publicly Released: Jul 21, 1987.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
GAO discussed the scope and cost of farm reorganizations and problems with the $50,000-per-person payment limitation. GAO found that: (1) between 1984 and 1986, there was an increasing trend in reorganizations that may have been related to the payment limit; (2) reorganizations added almost 9,000 new persons to Department of Agriculture (USDA) payment rolls, at a cost of $2.3 billion; (3) as more persons neared or met the payment limit, the number of new persons created in the following years increased; and (4) evidence from state and local officials, farmers who reorganized, and other sources supports the conclusion that the intent of some reorganizations was to avoid the payment limit. GAO believes that the trend in reorganizations will continue because: (1) there is a significant economic benefit for each person added to a farming operation; (2) in the future, additional persons on existing operations may continue to reach the payment limit because of high program payments and increased crop yields; and (3) in 1986, about 38,000 persons at the limit could realize an economic benefit by reorganizing. GAO also believes that: (1) USDA proposals to tighten payment limitations could discourage many reorganizations specifically designed to avoid the limit because they would remove the incentive to incorporate or add investors not actually engaged in farming; and (2) if Congress changes the existing law to implement these proposals, USDA will need to improve its guidance, training, and internal controls for person determinations.

Red, white and blue I can feel proud of
Published at 11:30, Thursday, 07 June 2012
If anyone has been missing their daily dose of royal action over the past 24 hours, fear not.
For many of us, four days of constant flag waving and Queen watching just aren't enough.
And if you have missed out on any pomp and circumstance over the past few hours, don't forget the Trooping The Colour is due up in a few days...
For me, it has all been far too much.
I tried to avoid as much of the Diamond Jubilee extravaganza as possible. And I was annoyed at how anyone who didn't buy endless amounts of Jubilee tat, or take part in a street party or watch endless hours of boring TV was somehow committing an act of treason.
Since when have you had to be a royalist to be patriotic?
I was surprised at how heartened and uplifted I was to see so much bunting and so many Union flags hanging off houses, fences and gates and planted in gardens.
It would be great to see so much pride and decoration for St George's day next year.
I have to say that top prize for the best display of red, white and blue has to go to the good folk of Lonsdale Terrace, on the hill into Whitehaven.
I noticed it on my way to the town's Festival.
I had a marvellous weekend away from all the Jubilee-tastic happenings (especially all the televised stuff) enjoying festivals great and small at Whitehaven and Ireby.
For once, the rain stayed away from both events, though Whitehaven was affected by the poor weather that hit those down south over the weekend.
Some of Sunday's air display fly-overs had to be cancelled as downpours in the south kept planes grounded.
But the Red Arrows did make it and provided the highlight of the day for me and thousands of others.
Their astonishing close-formation display had the huge crowd spontaneously ooh-ing and clapping – even though there was no chance of the air-devil pilots hearing the applause.
Sad to say, the day was marred by a lack of buses for the park and ride scheme when the festival came to a close.
We and scores of others, including youngsters and toddlers, waited an hour to be ferried back to our cars.
Then two arrived at once!
Some people had even resorted to catching a taxi.
Why Reays couldn't have arranged for more buses to be available when the display ended at 5pm I don't know.
At least it wasn't raining.
Hopefully next year will see more buses on duty.

Our elected officials have been putting off any decisions for years now, in the hope that their dreams of pennys from heaven bailing them out. It didn't happen, so here we are, with more debt then we can pay. Taxing a 2% slice of workers still paying taxes is not going to solve anything and everyone knows it. (With possible exception of our dear leader, I doubt he has any idea how an economy works.) Only one thing will cure over spending, and it's not raising taxes, CA and IL have been using that path for years, and they just go deeper in their hole. The answer isn't rocket science, it's a balanced budget, spend only what you have in revenues.

First of all, I want to say a very belated HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone. I know I've been slacking on the postings given that it's the holidays and I know its no excuse. I find it harder to motivate myself when I'm back home. Anyway, hopefully everyone out there is still reading as I have so many things to share with you.
So you're probably all wondering where those two beautiful lookbook photos are from. Here's the story: At the end of 2010, I discovered a new and upcoming designer who I have absolutely fallen in love, with her sleek designs, quality in materials and innovative textures. Her products have launched in the Fall of 2010 and these accessories are a piece of art within themselves. I had an amazing opportunity to interview her before the new years with regards to her line and the inspiration behind these sophisticated pieces.

Endurance Training and Elite Young AthletesArmstrong N. · Barker A.R.
Children's Health and Exercise Research Centre, University of Exeter, Exeter, UK
Endurance training consists of a structured exercise programme that is sustained for a sufficient length of time with sufficient intensity and frequency to induce an improvement in aerobic fitness. Elite young athletes generally have higher peak oxygen uptakes (peak VO2) than their untrained peers largely due to their greater maximal stroke volumes. Trained young athletes have faster VO2 kinetic responses to step changes in exercise intensity but whether this is due to enhanced oxygen delivery or increased oxygen utilization by the muscles remains to be explored. Blood lactate accumulation in young athletes during submaximal exercise is lower than in untrained youth and this appears to be due to enhanced oxidative function in the active muscles. No well-designed, longitudinal endurance training studies of elite young athletes have been published. Even in the general paediatric population peak VO2 is the only component of aerobic fitness on which there are sufficient data to examine dose-response effects of endurance training. The existence of a maturational threshold below which children are not trainable remains to be proven. The magnitude of training responses is independent of sex. Pre-training peak VO2 has a moderate but significant inverse relationship with post-training peak VO2 which suggests that elite young athletes are likely to experience smaller increases in peak VO2 with further endurance training than untrained youth. Empirical evidence strongly indicates that both trained and untrained young people can benefit from endurance training but the relative intensity of exercise required for optimum benefits is higher than that recommended for adults.
