Recently I've noticed certain side effects of e-books, and I think these side effects are tied up with format. (The question of book format is currently viewed as either unimportant or all-important depending on whom you're listening to. I don't fall on either side but am going to discuss it anyway.) When I say book format, I mean the difference between a tangible physical object and a digital one. I can't think of another word besides format for this, where a thing having a presence and taking up real space might also exist entirely digitally. But here are some effects:
(1) Use / Access
At the college, we share a library system with the county, and we share our collections. It's very easy to search all collections simultaneously. This benefits the college students who can borrow books from the public library, and the public library patrons who can borrow academic titles from the college. While the college adds more e-books to its collection every day, however, our license agreement does not allow public library patrons to access our academic e-books. Suddenly the public is denied access to titles they could recently route to their local branch with a click of a button. More broadly, something similar happens with interlibrary loan services. Interlibrary loan, for the uninitiated, is a commonly available service that allows a patron to request a book from another library located almost anywhere in the world, with some restrictions. Interlibrary loan becomes impossible if access agreements permit use of e-books by local patrons only.
(2) Re-use
Our library staff keeps a little internal lending library, mostly of paperbacks. The source for this collection is now drying up because the primary donor got a kindle. Along the same used-book lines, if textbooks go digital I suppose used textbooks will no longer be available. Students might be forced to pay top dollar for a single available digital edition, and there would be no competition in price.
(3) Ownership
My own use of printed library books reflects less of an economic necessity than a desire to read something. I don't want to have to own it, and the library makes this very convenient. A library book allows me to fully test the thing before deciding whether or not I want to keep it forever. I have no plans to run out and buy an e-reader, but as we approach the holiday season, I wonder what would happen if I received one as a gift. It certainly is a convenient gadget, but to get books I would suddenly have to own them. I am a discriminating reader; I really don't want to own every book I read.

'Chronicle' Marketing Stunt Sends 'People' Soaring Over the New York City Skyline [Video]
If you were on the streets of New York City the other day, you may have heard someone shout, "Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plan! It's Super-Oh wait, actually it is a plane." It was three human-shaped remote-controlled planes, to be precise, specially created to give the illusion of actual people flying around the skies of New York City as a promotional stunt for the upcoming movie Chronicle.

Just as life is unpredictable, your skin will always keep you guessing. Environmental conditions, stress, hormonal fluctuations and the foods you eat can all create unexpected changes to your complexion from acne breakouts to red splotches to dark under eye circles.

Are there any regular opportunities to play around that time or is there anyone who'd be willing to show me the best of what Atlanta Disc Golf has to offer?

This story was updated at 10 a.m. Sept. 6, 2013.
While a Kensington woman who went missing has been found safe, the details of what happened during her disapperance remain unclear.
Hannah Emily Upp, located Wednesday evening, said she cannot remember anything between that point and Monday afternoon, according to Montgomery County Police.
Upp recalled eating lunch at Wheaton Plaza on Monday and then beginning to walk afterward — but nothing else, police said in a statement.
She used the cell phone of a passerby to call her mother around 10:30 p.m. Wednesday when she "found herself" in the area of Georgia Avenue and Shorefield Road, according to police.
She was not physically injured, police said.
Angela Cruz, a county police spokesperson, said the investigation is ongoing in case someone is able to report something that happened during the time period.
Cruz said Upp had an interview with county detectives, but wasn't sure if there would be any further interviews.
In a statement released through police, Upp's mother Barbara Bellus asked that Upp be given "time and space" to be with family and recover.
"We are tremendously grateful for your thoughts and prayers and attentiveness during the time she was missing," Bellus said in the statement.
Upp's disappearance attracted a flurry of attention in part because five years ago, while teaching at a school in New York, Upp vanished for nearly three weeks before being fished out of the New York Harbor by Staten Island ferry workers.
Montgomery County police said Hannah Emily Upp was reported missing Tuesday morning. Upp is an assistant teacher at the Community Montessori Charter School in Kensington. She also lives in the building, which is at 3015 Upton Drive.
Upp, who previously lived and taught Spanish in New York City, made national news after she disappeared for almost three weeks in September 2008. After she was found by ferry workers in the New York Harbor, Upp, then 23, was told she suffered from dissociative fugue, a type of amnesia in which people forget their identity, according to a New York Times article written about her disappearance.
She recently started working at the charter school, which had its first day of school on Aug. 26.

This conversation is closed.
Have you ever felt your thought is not very independent ? How you solve it ?
Do the western children think of this question earlier than the eastern children ?
Is the concept important to us or it' s just one of the troubles we so-called " Everybody has had it . "
How are you guys ' parents leading you ?
As a 17-year-old student ,I have thought of this question long before .
I don't think come up with your own viewpoint is a shame . I don't want to " Passive accepted " . I can accept your core after you convince me .
I think an independent character is the fundamental of a person . So i begin to cultivating my own value of the world .
After i have read books , watched the speech . I sill have puzzles . But i can't debate with my friends because ,in china , people who concerned the mental issue become more and more lessening.
People will think you are a freak, your friends also don't want to talk this topic with you because it seems like too heavy and it will show to us how ignorant we are .
Some people often think that Chinese youth don't have their own spirits or creeds .
But i believe there must be many sober people .
We also have a mind system of our own ,we just don not know how to arouse it .
Apr 21 2013: Yes,I am :)
Apr 21 2013: Are you still in China or... .abroad?
Apr 24 2013: Yes,I do live in china.:)
Apr 24 2013: Glad to see :)Apr 19 2013: I think differences between Chinese parents and American parents:
Chinese parents:all have high expections on their children.They all like their children to make their dreams to be true.Once they have children,Most of them spend ninty percent of their lives on their children.They all like to build a better life for their children.they always try to do as much as they can for their children.they think you are my children,you should listen to me mostly,they like their children to be together with them even children grown up...
America parents:they always try to help their children to be independent,they think they have their dreams,children should have children's dreams.They don't have too much restrictions on children's personal lives when they are adults.hehehehe...all about their from some reading.I haven't been to america,didn't talk to any america parents about it yet:)
Apr 20 2013: So...Are you Chinese ?
Becky Finn
Apr 11 2013: Let people 'think you are a freak' as it is those who can't accept the opinions and views of others who are missing out. Those who don't want to talk, they are the individuals who conform and can't escape the passiveness of life which I think you are referring to. You are young and have the rest of your life to find yourself and develop your opinions on anything and everything you desire - so do just that - explore, learn, be unique and don't be scared what others think when "cultivating your own value of the world"

Apr 15 2013: XOXO
I will try to be a freak ~ It's soud pretty cool .
greg dahlen
Apr 11 2013: As an independent thinker, what thoughts are you having?
- +1
Apr 13 2013: Are you ironically ?Apr 11 2013: Parents everywhere try to influence children based on their personal opinions and code of values ; this includes religious views, political views, social and ethical issues, current topics.. Also schools, politicians and media can,and do influence opinions; there is manipulation of people even in the democratic free western societies but it's not imposed. The real difference lays with the individual ...what he chooses to listen to, and to what degree. It is ok to question things and to form your own opinion and view of the world, but pay close attention...sometimes things can be deceiving and it takes time to understand the real values. The more diverse things you read and listen to the broader your view of the world is going to be.
Apr 15 2013: thank you !
Peter Fox
Apr 11 2013: No. I may be unaware of things but my first 'secret' is to completely ignore mass media (and the advertising that goes with it - eg use Ad-block on my web browser.)
- +1
Then be cynical. Start asking questions. Keep asking questions. After a while you discover how to scratch at received wisdom, how to recognise the signs of weakness as others seek to defend an assumed position, and build your skills at debate.
The next level is developing your own ideas and letting people scoff. OK you may be naive and need to do more research, but so long as you don't retreat into taking a position because of emotional reasons, you'll learn, be prompted to look deeper and so on. Often after a discussion you'll do research that confirms you point of view and demolishes somebody else's.
At 17 you want to 'be different'. It's the very nature of youth. Get on and read, research, argue, write... ...then be amazed at 20 how simple your ideas were three years ago.
Finally, a lot of people have had similar ideas in a thousand fields. If you find some appealing then dig deeper. You'll probably want to develop that with your own ideas. So metaphorically, 'making pizza' is not original but the way you make it with fancy toppings is a bit of experimentation... then you hack the shape... then you fold and double bake... and so on. Experiment based on older ideas is a productive way of being independent.
Apr 14 2013: Thank you ~
Your analyses is very very professional, particularly about the process of growth !
I think I am trapped in the " be cynical " to " show my own values " . I find I can't seize the wit or find the wit .
And this afternoon I talk with my father about the " admit the defect " .My father use a theory from me want to defeat me . But I come up with a new reason rebut my old theory and my father .
And he said I was resorted to sophistry .
AM I ???Apr 24 2013: My goodness life is a mystery. I think you have an interesting concept here. We go into deep conversations like this on my weekly podcast. You can check out this past weeks here. Thanks for the support and interest fellow ted watchers vimeo.com/64609057Apr 15 2013: What do you mean by "independent", if you mean have I ever thought of things for myself?
Yes I have, and I always decide whether things are "right" or "wrong" for myself, and always evalutate what people are told me!
Yet if you mean "independent" by have I thought of anything completely new?
Probably not, as Freud said : "Every new thought I think I have, has already been explored by poets before me" (Or something along those lines!).
While sometimes it is necessary to have trust in people, like I trust physicists who talk about "String theory" know what they are talking about!
I don't have independent thought (in both aspects) on things I don't know about! I just "trust" the opinions of the experts, or people I hold high in regard. Which can sometimes be a very harmful thing and can lead to unquestioning conformity + obedience
So this is a two sided coin! :P
While in the west indiviaulism is encouraged to such an extent that "cooperation" is sometimes looked down upon (Which leads to things like group - think!). (Just like how extroversion is held in high regard in the west, as well as not admitting to your mistakes!)
EDIT : I mean imagine how inefficient the world would be if everybody was a leader!
Apr 16 2013: I neaten what your replied . And I find ——
1.We must keep our distinct minds
2.But, we should " trust " the theory which is eternally immutable or we cannot prove it whether true or fulse .【It remind me of the NG from IELTS ...】
3.And we should respect others' concept because we are modestly .
Do I organize comprehensively ?Apr 15 2013: Hello freeair zhao.....I love your profile photo:>)
I do not perceive my thoughts to be totally independent, because I perceive everything as interconnected, and my thoughts are influenced by all the information that I explore. I agree that parents certainly influence their children, and children often accept the information provided by parents. I do not understand why you refer to this as a problem that needs to be solved. I think/feel it is part of the human experience.
I think it is GREAT that you come up with your own viewpoint after exploring, evaluating and considering information.
I still have "puzzles" after 60+ years on this earth, so that is ok, in my perception. I will be exploring and learning until I take my last breath:>)
If you cannot talk about your thoughts, feelings, ideas, concerns and opinions with your friends, I'm glad you came to TED where you can perhaps put some of the puzzles together. It appears that you are arousing and stimulating your mind very well:>)
Nice to meet you.....welcome to TED:>)
Apr 15 2013: Thank you ~ :)
When I read your reply I feel my heart is fill with warm .
Actually I am kind of afraid to communicate with you , or the different people . Because the different regime , the prejudices about each other .
But I still put foward this topic .I think I should face the objection .
It's so hard that evey time I am prompted there is a new email , which make me too scare to browse the content . Frankly ,I feared to be criticised but meanwhile I want to be judged or, lightly , be teaching .
In my subconscious , my heart want to find frustrations and want experience the bitter from the setback . I want to be stronger and tougher . I don' t want change my consciousness casually just because somebody's derision .
PS : I didn't say that be affected by parent is a problem .I just as a case ,because I want to know the different between the Chineses parent and the Euramerican's .
Apr 15 2013: Hello again freeair zhao :>)
Thank you for the feedback, which fills my heart with warmth as well:>)
No need to be afraid to communicate my friend. You seem like a very insightfull person....trust yourself.....believe in yourself.....ok?
If you discover prejudice, or comments that do not feel comfortable, you do not have to communicate with that person again. We are all teachers and students sharing information in our world.....believe in yourself.
Sorry, I cannot offer any information regarding your question about the difference in Chinese parents and Euramericans......I don't know. I have friends in China.....I will ask and see if they have ideas about that:>)
Apr 23 2013: I 'm soooo sorry ,my email didn't remind me of your reply..
Thank you I feel vigour back to my life . Thank you for the comfort .
I try to ignore the teasing .
Thank you again !Apr 23 2013: My pleasure freeair zhao! Nice to see you communicating here on TED:>)Apr 15 2013: It sounds like you have taken the red pill
Don't let anyone tell you what is true as only you can or should do this.Apr 13 2013: That is strange. For 4000 years China thought independently and most wonderfully for that the Chinese did not need so much of a religious spirituality. As a neighboring culture we believe you are wonderful people.
I think the essence of life lies in the realization that we can seldom claim the position of originality. Every little aspect of your life bears contributions of so many before you. Don't bother if you are thinking independently - think to contribute independently. it is no use if you do not act. Actions are real agents of change.
Apr 14 2013: Thank you .
I agree the sentence about contribute independently .It's to the point .
About the religion ,I don't have the qualification to judge . I don't think without the religion is a shame because different peole have different way to support their inner . Maybe a god maybe a motto maybe a friend maybe a lover .
I don't think my personal way of thinking all from my culture .The culture is just a background . I have rights to select the positve part of it to complete my mental world .

Apr 15 2013: UH.... Because I afraid you may can't understand my pionts , I use the software altered a bit .
I have a little problem about your last sentence. Is that mean I should be liable for what I said ?
Comment deleted
Apr 16 2013: NO...
In China you will find , via the Sina Weibo RenRensite or any other else , there is a large of people followed the "Group think " and there is also a amount of people hold an entirely different perspective to debate with the so-called " Anti-party ".
Sometime I feel they just for hold to hold ,you know ,as I need novel I created diverse , but the reason I raise to support my pionts is farfetched .Apr 11 2013: As I understand your question, and do correct me if I don't understand, you are arguing that it is important to draw your own conclusions based on what you observe and are taught rather than believing everything you hear and read, accepting it without critical reflection.
Yes, I would say that that is a value that is communicated to children in the West and that very much most people accept. People who have spent little time in classrooms in the last few decades often believe that kids are directed to accept passively what they are told, but that is not at all my observation of the values in classrooms in the last several decades.
That said, there is a limit to what we can, practically speaking, test for ourselves. I read a book recently in which 150 or so of the top scientists and social scientists in the world replied to the question, "What do you believe but cannot prove?" One scientists replied that, technically speaking, he knows that in most areas unrelated to the areas in which he works, he does not have the time, knowledge, or skills to test everything for himself and reinvent every wheel. So he explores what people he considers conscientious, honest, and thoughtful have discovered through their careful work and draws conclusions based on those inputs.
It is increasingly important to be able to recognize reliable sources of information and to distinguish those from unreliable sources.
Apr 13 2013: Thanks for your replying.
Your explanation of my question is properly . I am not good at summarize my thinkings so I usually get a sceptical attitude to analyse the information I received .
I am really intereted about the book you refered . What's the conclusion he covered at last ? As a rigorous scientist he can bear the uncertainty ? I think the answer is the key to unlock my lock .
Apr 13 2013: I think his perspective was that if he is confident of the rigor of the other person's process and the standards to which he holds himself, he is comfortable to accept the results at the level of confidence the scientist claims for them. This would seldom be certainty. If the results are published in a reputable journal, the work will also have been reviewed carefully by other specialists in the area the paper addresses, so other competent eyes will have reviewed the work as well. It is not whether the work is reviewed but whether it is reviewed by competent people in that area who themselves have scientific integrity.
Even so, a result once presented would need to be replicated before the result can be considered robust.
Apr 14 2013: Thank you .
You mean that we should accept some results even though without our own views in it ?
PS:Could you tell me the name of the book ?Apr 14 2013: I think that as a practical matter, you have to go with information you personally did not generate much of the time. You can and should seek multiple perspectives, like getting a second opinion on a major medical matter, but you will not have the expertise in every area to do your own research in it.
The book to which I referred is called What We Believe but Cannot Prove, curated and edited by John Brockman. Scientists and leading thinkers in the compendium include: Richard Dawkins, Robert Sapolsky, Jonathan Haidt, Seth Lloyd, Keith Devlin, Freeman Dyson, Daniel Gilbert, Steven Pinker, Daniel Dennett, Howard Gardner, Simon Baron-Cohen, Anton Zeilinger, Martin Seligman, Neil Gershenfeld, and over one hundred other thinkers of prominence.
Apr 14 2013: Thank you veeeeeeeery much !
I think I will not feel guilty if I find I don't have a unique perspective .Or may be I wil but the feeling will not be strong .I will learn to accept others' view frankly .
Wish I won't to be inactive .
PS: I just have bought the book on the internet minutes ago, luckily ,it has the Chinese edition.
Thanks again .Apr 14 2013: Just remember that no one is saying you should not think for yourself with the information you have. Perhaps the most important thing an education can do for you is to give you the background and tools to explore and think for yourself It is only that you typically need to use information and findings gathered from others as part of forming your own conclusions.

Canada has a universal access health care system that strives to provide quality care for every Canadian, regardless of their station in life. Yet the amount of money governments spend on health care is increasing and ready access to care continues to be an issue.
Is Canada's current health care system financially sustainable? How does the Canadian health care system compare to systems used in other countries? What choice do Canadians have when it comes to health care? What is the role of the private sector within Canada's health care system?

Tuesday, July 16, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (July 16, 2002) - East Tennessee State's baseball team has signed Chris Gambill (Mountain City, Tenn.) to a letter of intent to enroll at ETSU and play baseball for the Bucs head coach Tony Skole announced today. Gambill will be transferring from Milligan College where he played last season for the Buffaloes. He will have three years of eligibility at ETSU. A 6-3, left-handed pitcher, Gambill saw action in 15 games as a freshman for Milligan in 2002, going 5-5 with a 4.20 ERA. His five wins tied for the most on the Buffaloes and he struck out a team best 43 hitters in 56.2 innings of work, holding opposing batters to a .225 average. A graduate of Johnson County High School, Gambill was a three-year letterwinner. An all-state player as a senior, he also earned East Tennessee Player of the Year honors as well as being named the player of the year in his conference and region in 2001.

November 11, 2012 – Martial Law is still in effect in parts of New Jersey and New York. The seemingly Orwellian named "Camp Freedom" set up by Red Cross and Department of Human Services at Monmouth Park, Oceanport is said to be like a prison with the Military, FEMA and Red Cross operating within the camp's perimeter where no media is allowed. "Everybody is angry over here. It's like being (in) prison," said one of the Sandy refugees.
100s of thousands of people are still without power and Staten Island's Arthur Kill Correctional Facility is currently being considered for use as another refugee camp, according to Peter Cutler, a spokesman for the state Department of Corrections.
"They're scared; they've been through so much and they want to know that they're gonna have a place to go at least for the next 30 days or so – and as of right now, we don't have those answers", said Rep Michael Grimm of New York.
So where is the Federal Gov't? The NYTimes has reported that, "The Army Corps of Engineers has awarded a contract worth up to $385 million for building temporary immigration detention centers to Kellogg Brown & Root, the Halliburton subsidiary that has been criticized for overcharging the Pentagon for its work in Iraq.
KBR would build the centers for the Homeland Security Department for an unexpected influx of immigrants, to house people in the event of a natural disaster…".
FEMA's own National Responder Support Camp (NRSC) documents say, "The Contractor shall be capable of establishing and maintaining a RSC within disaster-impacted areas within 72 hours of task order award".
According to Harry Helms author of Inside the Shadow Government: National Emergencies and the Cult of Secrecy, "A 1992 study by the Cox Newspapers Group found that during 1982-1992 FEMA's budgets included only $243 million for disaster relief but $2.9 billion for black ops."
And can we really trust Red Cross? CNN once reported, "The Red Cross has raised more than $564 million for the Liberty Fund, which was set up in response to the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. it has distributed only $154 million" and Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro recently called the Red Cross an "absolute disgrace" and urged people to stop contributing to them, adding "It's very emotional because the lack of a response. The lack of a response. They're supposed to be here….They should be on the front lines fighting, and helping the people."
Thankfully, OccupySandy Volunteers Ops are underway and the Gothamist reported "last night, representatives from The National Guard, the Bloomberg administration, and the NYPD spoke at an organizational meeting for the movement's continued efforts to help powerless Red Hook residents" If you are able, please contribute to this historic relief effort…this is still just the beginning of the recovery.

Psychic Epidemic
The gigantic catastrophes that threaten us today are not elemental happenings of a physical or biological order, but psychic events. To a quite terrifying degree we are threatened by wars and revolutions which are nothing other than psychic epidemics. At any moment several millions of human beings may be smitten with a new madness, and then we shall have another world war or devastating revolution. Instead of being at the mercy of wild beasts, earthquakes, landslides, and inundations, modern man is battered by the elemental forces of his own psyche.
-Carl Jung
Re: Psychic Epidemic
Carl Jung again:
"...the sick individual finds himself at home with all the other similarly sick individuals. The whole culture is geared to this kind of pathology. The result is that the average individual does not experience the separateness and isolation the fully schizophrenic person feels. He feels at ease among those who suffer from the same deformation; in fact, it is the full sane person who feels isolated in the insane society - and he may suffer so much from the incapacity to communicate that it is he who may become psychotic.
The larger the society or confederacy, the greater the amalgamation of collective factors - which is typical of every large organization - the more aggravated the moral and spiritual degeneration of the individual."
Re: Psychic Epidemic
Okay, now I feel better about myself. Thanks!
Re: Psychic Epidemic
Insane society. That's what I see when I look at the whole thing. This world is a group of large insane societies.
A fringe example in ours, the guy who just shot a bunch of people in the Colorado movie theater (watching Batman), he's a product of our society. All those shooters are.
Another quote:
"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will often be lonely and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." -Unknown
Not sure who said that. Maybe someone knows.
Re: Psychic Epidemic
Years ago I remember talking about the future. We were speculating as to what we can expect and what people will be like. I recall someone saying that people will be insane and they'll think that they are normal. Those who are actually in their right minds will be looked upon as insane.
More and more that's what I'm seeing in our day. The future is now.
Re: Psychic Epidemic
So for all the people who feel alone in a world gone insane...don't worry, you're not the only one. There are a few others in your situation.
Here's a description of the mostly unknown aspect of our current society:
"It is perfectly possible for a man to be out of prison, and yet not free. To be under no physical constraint and yet to be a psychological captive, compelled to think, feel and act as the representatives of the national state, or of some private interest within the nation wants him to think, feel and act. The nature of psychological compulsion is such that those who act under constraint remain under the impression that they are acting on their own initiative. The victim of mind manipulation does not know that he is a victim, to him the walls of his prison are invisible and he believes himself to be free. That he is not free is apparent only to other people because his servitude is strictly objective." -Aldous Huxley
Re: Psychic Epidemic
Is the ego the ghost that has arisen from the grave of the self? Where has the self gone when people merely exist as their ego? If more people don't start digging in their shadow for the self, could it be forgotten?
"He who blasphemes against the Father will be forgiven, and he who blasphemes against the Son will be forgiven, but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either on earth or in heaven" - Jesus
It would seem the self was the original holy spirit.
Re: Psychic Epidemic
That's a great quote to ponder. Your take on it is excellent.
I interpret its meaning as you can offend God and all forms of God and still be redeemed spiritually, but there's a line that cannot be crossed whereby you cannot be redeemed.
Maybe that line is offending the essence of one's very essence. Like sinning against yourself and all creation. How can you spiritually advance if that which is inside of you, the very capacity to experience and exercise universal love, your very soul and that which animates you, is denied by you?
You cannot be forgiven if you are so immersed in the ego that it keeps you from doing what you're here to do as a human being. That is, to forgive and to help each other and to love like Jesus.
That's the key to sanity.
Re: Psychic Epidemic
On the rare, transformative, challenging and "illegal" psychedelic experience...
A society which would deny that (psychedelic experience), is a society who's secret, or maybe not so secret, agenda is the infantilisation of its citizens. I mean, if we are not capable of dealing with these things, then who is? And are the people who made the rules, did they carefully, conscientiously, and in depth, explore these dimensions and decide they were unfit for human consumption? Or was it done more hastily, more mindlessly and with more fear. I would submit to you that it's the latter. -Terence K. McKenna
Well, don't unconscious slaves have to be thoughtless and unaware. Because once you start having a society where people are thinking critically, more intelligent and having experiences that transform their lives and teach them about what it means to be alive... the current rulers will quickly lose their jobs.

George Carlin's Final Words To The World...
George Carlin on "The American Dream".
"There's a reason education SUCKS, and it's the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It's never going to get any better, don't look for it, be happy with what you've got. Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the REAL owners, now. The REAL owners, the BIG WEALTHY business interests that control things and make all the important decisions -- forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. YOU DON'T. You have no choice. You have OWNERS. They OWN YOU. They own EVERYTHING. They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations; they've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the State houses, the City Halls; they've got the judges in their back pockets, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all the news and information you get to hear. They gotcha by the BALLS. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying -- lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want -- they want MORE for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They DON'T want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that, that doesn't help them. That's against their interests. That's right. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting FUCKED by a system that threw them overboard 30 fuckin' years ago. They don't want that. You know what they want? They want OBEDIENT WORKERS. OBEDIENT WORKERS. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passably accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And now they're comin' for your SOCIAL SECURITY MONEY. They want your fuckin' retirement money. They want it BACK. So they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it ALL from you sooner or later -- 'cuz they OWN this fuckin' place. It's a big CLUB. And YOU AIN'T IN IT. You and I are NOT IN the big club. By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long, beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe -- what to think -- and what to buy. The table is tilted, folks. The game is rigged. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good honest hard-workin people -- white collar, blue collar -- doesn't matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-workin people CONTINUE -- these are people of modest means -- continue to elect these RICH COCKSUCKERS who don't GIVE a f*** about them. They don't give a f*** about you, they don't GIVE A f*** ABOUT YOU. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU -- AT ALL. AT ALL. AT ALL. You know? And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care ... that's what the owners count on, the fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes every day. Because the owners of this country know the truth -- it's called the American Dream ... 'cuz you have to be asleep to believe it."

Ed W. Freeman
Nov. 20, 1927
Greene County
Mississippi, USA
Aug. 20, 2008
Ada County
Idaho, USA
Vietnam War Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient. He served as a Master Sergeant during the Korean War and was given a battlefield commission during the Battle of Pork Chop Hill. At that point in his career his dream was to attend flight school. However, because of his six foot four stature he was considered too tall. In 1955 the height limit was raised allowing Freeman to enroll fulfilling a lifelong dream. The nickname "Too Tall" stuck with him throughout his military career. It would be during the Vietnam War that Freeman would receive the honor for heroic actions in battle. As an Army helicopter pilot during the Vietnam war and flight leader, second in command, he flew fourteen separate rescue missions, providing life saving evacuation of an estimated 30 seriously wounded soldiers at a heavily engaged infantry battalion at Landing Zone X-Ray in the la Drang Valley. He was awarded the Medal of Honor by President George W. Bush in July of 2001. His Citation reads: "For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty: Captain Ed W. Freeman, United States Army, distinguished himself by numerous acts of conspicuous gallantry and extraordinary intrepidity on 14 November 1965 while serving with Company A, 229th Assault Helicopter Battalion, 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile). As a flight leader and second in command of a 16-helicopter lift unit, he supported a heavily engaged American infantry battalion at Landing Zone X-Ray in the Ia Drang Valley, Republic of Vietnam. The unit was almost out of ammunition after taking some of the heaviest casualties of the war, fighting off a relentless attack from a highly motivated, heavily armed enemy force. When the infantry commander closed the helicopter landing zone due to intense direct enemy fire, Captain Freeman risked his own life by flying his unarmed helicopter through a gauntlet of enemy fire time after time, delivering critically needed ammunition, water and medical supplies to the besieged battalion. His flights had a direct impact on the battle's outcome by providing the engaged units with timely supplies of ammunition critical to their survival, without which they would almost surely have gone down, with much greater loss of life. After medical evacuation helicopters refused to fly into the area due to intense enemy fire, Captain Freeman flew 14 separate rescue missions, providing life-saving evacuation of an estimated 30 seriously wounded soldiers -- some of whom would not have survived had he not acted. All flights were made into a small emergency landing zone within 100 to 200 meters of the defensive perimeter where heavily committed units were perilously holding off the attacking elements. Captain Freeman's selfless acts of great valor, extraordinary perseverance and intrepidity were far above and beyond the call of duty or mission and set a superb example of leadership and courage for all of his peers. Captain Freeman's extraordinary heroism and devotion to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit and the United States Army." His heroics grew nationwide attention when his character was played by Mark McCracken in the film, "We Were Soldiers." Freeman died from complications of Parkinson's Disease at age 80.

A mo-ped rider is in critical condition after his mo-ped and a pickup collided on Friday morning east of downtown Fort Wayne.
Fort Wayne Police say that the wreck happened at about 10:15 a.m. Friday at the corner of South Anthony Boulevard and East Washington Boulevard. Their preliminary investigation indicates the crash happened when the mo-ped was traveling south on Anthony and turned east onto Washington at the same time the truck was traveling north on Anthony and also turned east onto Washington.
The mo-ped rider was taken to a local hospital, where he remains in critical condition. The pickup's driver was also taken to a local hospital in fair condition.
At this time, the Fatal Alcohol Crash Team is investigating the incident and processing evidence. The wreck is still being investigated by Fort Wayne Police and the Allen County Prosecutor's Office.

I saw a question on here about cold brew vs hot brew caffeine content and was wondering what is the easiest (or best) way to measure this at home (if possible)

If you can find Ethyl Acetate (some nail polish removers), you can probably do this.
I don't think anything short of HPLC or extraction and purification will give you a precise result. If you'd be ok with more of a rough idea of whether something has a lot or a little caffeine, there are test strips available.

Reese Witherspoon's mug shot (City of Atlanta Department of Corrections)
Jim Toth's mug shot (City of Atlanta Department of Corrections)
UPDATES MONDAY A.M.: Reese Witherspoon released the following statement regarding her alcohol-fueled incident in Atlanta Friday morning: "Out of respect for the ongoing legal situation, I cannot comment on everything that is being reported right now. But I do want to say, I clearly had one drink too many and I am deeply embarrassed about the things I said. It was definitely a scary situation and I was frightened for my husband, but that is no excuse. I was disrespectful to the officer who was just doing his job. I have nothing but respect for the police and I'm very sorry for my behavior."
In Atlanta on Monday morning, the judge in Jim Toth's DUI charge hearing allowed cameras in the courtroom. The judge told Toth's attorney that his court date is set for May 27. The attorney left the courtroom, saying "no comment" to all media.
Academy Award winning actress Reese Witherspoon was arrested and jailed along with husband Jim Toth Friday morning in Atlanta, Georgia, when a police officer observed Toth weaving outside of his lane in traffic. Toth was arrested for DUI, while Witherspoon was handcuffed and arrested for alleged disorderly conduct when she refused to cooperate with law enforcement.
Variety broke the story on Sunday. Toth, 42, the co-head of motion picture talent at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), is facing a DUI charge and a second charge for failing to maintain a lane while driving, and is due in court in Atlanta on Monday at 8 a.m., but is not expected to appear. The couple was in Atlanta because Witherspoon, 37, has been shooting the indie film, "The Good Lie." Sources tell Variety that production on the film was not interrupted. Witherspoon's rep is not issuing comment.

The officer instructed Toth to pull over into a nearby Walgreens parking lot. According to the report, Witherspoon became upset while still in the vehicle and the officer requested that she stay in the car for her own safety.
"Mrs. Witherspoon began to hang out the window and say that she did not believe that I was a real police officer," the report continued. "I told Mrs. Witherspoon to sit on her butt and be quiet."
When Toth was arrested, Witherspoon exited the vehicle and then was told by the officer to get back in it. She "stated that she was a 'U.S. citizen' and that she was allowed to 'stand on American ground.' I put my hands on Mrs. Witherspoon's arms to arrest her. Mrs. Witherspoon was resistant but I was able to put handcuffs on her without incident due to Mr. Toth calming her down."

The report continued, "Mrs. Witherspoon also stated, 'You are going to be on national news.' I advised Mrs. Witherspoon that was fine."
The "Legally Blonde" star's alleged violation was "disorderly conduct (obstruction)," which is reportedly a local municipal ordinance.
Witherspoon and Toth have been married since March 2011 and have one son, Tennessee James Toth, together, born in September 2012. The actress has two children -- Ava, 13, and Deacon, 9 -- with her first husband, Ryan Phillippe.
But it was business as usual for Witherspoon Sunday night in New York City, where she still attended the premiere of her film "Mud," co-starring Matthew McConaughey. "omg! Insider" was on the red carpet and asked her co-stars about the incident. McConaughey refused to comment and the news caught Sarah Paulson and director Jeff Nichols by surprise. Witherspoon arrived at the premiere alone and took photos but did not speak to reporters.

I am getting a MacBook Pro soon, and I want to load the music I have on my phone onto the MacBook without deleting all of my data on my phone. Is this possible? It would be really helpful.

Subject: Ladybugs Arrived Safely at Remote Lightstation (Prince Rupert, BC)
Received: Wed, 5 Aug 1998
I am writing today to compliment various members of your staff who diligently followed up on my order, calling me on several occasions to confirm changing shipment dates for the ladybugs.
As my husband I live and work on a remote lightstation in British Columbia's Central Coast, approximately 150 Km (by air) from Prince Rupert, we only receive our tender and mail order goods on a monthly basis by helicopter from Prince Rupert. I had noted the importance of timing for the ladybug shipment, which had to coincide with one of our monthly tender dates, on my order form. Due to circumstances beyond your control, the shipment of ladybugs to your firm kept getting delayed and on each occasion, one of your staff members took the time and care to pay attention to my order form note and telephoned to reconfirm a shipment date that would work for us as well as you. I received the last call on the afternoon of July 3rd and arrangements were made to send the ladybugs via Express Post on July 6th. They arrived in Prince Rupert post office the morning of the 8th, were picked up by our Stores personnel and brought to the base and were then shipped out to us by helicopter with our tender on July 9th - perfect timing. The "ladies" arrived in fine condition and anxious to get out of their shipment bag and go to work. We carefully followed the well written instruction sheet and advise we are very impressed with their work in just one week. Living out here, our gardens play a big part in our lives, providing fresh vegetables for daily consumption in the summer months and, of course, we freeze and preserve for our winter requirements. Respecting the abundance of birds we are privileged to have on and around the lightstation plus having three energetic dogs who happily run around the island, we are reluctant to use chemical pesticides for control of unwanted bugs, so were pleased to learn about the value of ladybugs from your catalogue.
Thanks again to your staff for their conscientious extra efforts - we are certainly satisfied customers who will be dealing with you again and passing on our recommendation to others.
Yours truly,
Sherrill E. Kitson, Prince Rupert, BC, Canada

8 ounces

1 cup
sliced fresh mushrooms
1 pound
medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 1/2 cups
1/4 teaspoon
2 tablespoons
minced shallots
plum tomatoes, diced
1 cup
heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons
chopped fresh parsley
freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Incredible! I made this dish last night for my girlfriend who described it as orgasmic after only the first mouthful! I essentially followed the recipe, but altered it slightly as per one previous reviewer. I sauteed swiss brown mushrooms in butter and olive oil then flamed them with a dash of brandy. Also added a teaspoon of garlic to the shallots and champagne. I used drained plum tomatoes instead of fresh, and added all the cream to the tomato sauce. I used a good champagne and it was worth the expense. Overall, probably the best pasta I have ever eaten, and I have eaten in michelin starred restaurants in Italy. The flavours are subtle, and the recipe does NOT need the garlic unless you definitely must have it. Not sure what difference using fresh tomatoes would make, but the drained canned tomatoes did not detract from the dish in my opinion. I will definitely be adding this recipe to my list of keepers. Outstanding.
Sauce just never came together for me on this one -- I thought boiling champagne and cream seemed like a bad idea, as the golden rule of cooking with cream is generally not to boil it - especially in conjunction with a thinner liquid - and it was,... perhaps I should have reduced the champagne further as the sauce just broke apart.

This was an incredible recipe but I did make just a few changes. First, I added 1/2 of a medium onion instead of shallots and I added 3 cloves of garlic for extra flavor. I cooked the onions, garlic, and mushrooms together in the olive oil also with a few tablespoons of butter and then followed the directions for the rest of the recipe. I will surely be making this recipe again and again... it was excellent!
I made this for new year's eve and it was the BEST dish I have ever made!! Definitely restaurant quality!! I did make a few changes...I used 1/2 lb. of shrimp & 1/2 lb. scallops, linguine rather than angel hair, baby bella mushrooms and grape tomatoes. I used a really dry champagne (Freixenet Brut), which I think is important. I don't think the sauce would turn out very well if you used a sweet champagne. The flavor concentrates when you're cooking with alcohol, so you want to use a champagne you would drink from the glass. Since I used a dry champagne, the grape tomatoes gave it just the right amount of sweetness. I think next time I will add some lump crabmeat. YUM!! Can't wait to make this for company. We'll be making this for many years to come!
This is an excellent recipe.....as is.
I made this recipe exactly as specified, and it will definitely be something I will use as a standby when I'm looking to impress. Not only were the flavors unbelievable, but the recipe itself is well-written and easy to follow. Great for a romantic dinner.
***Just a follow-up: I tried to double this recipe and it ended up taking a LOT longer to reduce the sauce. Add extra time if you plan to do this.
This recipe was so yummy and rich with flavor. My husband said it tasted as good as Red Lobster. I cooked the mushrooms in butter and wine instead of oil for about 5 minutes then I added some Brandy and let her fire up to get the mushroomy taste out. When I cooked the tomatoes and minced shallots I mixed in about two little spoons of minced garlic. I thought it would appear too Garlicy, but it was fine. Instead of Champagne, I used a nice Chardonnay that really complimented the dish and added a dash of a sweet white wine but not much. Hubby doesn't like sweet stuff. I cooked the shallots, Garlic and Tomatoes about 12 minutes instead of 8. It seemed to come out really thick and not thin like everyone else said. Instead of plum tomatoes I bought a can of diced tomatoes and used about 3/4 of the can and it still came out beautifully. At the end I used all of the cream on the stove together. I didn't put any cream on the pasta before hand. I also used Basil instead of Parsley. Thanks Tricia Flasck, for the beautiful elegant dinner. It is all well worth making.
Wow. Great stuff - and this relatively new cook was kept on his toes, especially since there was Ali's Amazing Bruschetta (also available on this website) to time out as well. I recommend you read the recipe a couple of times before beginning. There are a couple of critical junctures where one must be absolutely ready to move to the next step. Have your ingredients measured and waiting in the wings. Then like me, you won't frantically be running your finger up and down the ingredient list looking for the right amount of this or that! Sheesh, it was all worth it because the recipe was exceptional, but man oh man - it sure became hectic a couple of times. My wife and son both loved it. My son said it was one of the best meals I have ever made (I chose to take that as a compliment)!
