In your opinion, what are the most pressing issues right now, either local or global?
The world is diverse and is changing fast.
In your opinion - what are the most important issues to be dealt with right now? Is it national debt, war, child labour, healthcare? Which issues matter most to you in your local community and which do you think should be discussed first on a global scale?
All comments are welcome.
May 7 2013: i see the world turning into a second wave of nazism. of course, the situation is nowhere near as serious as it were in the 20's or 30's, but we can't be sure it won't be. the parallel is striking. just like back then, the narrative is crisis, enemy threat, and the call for union against the tides of evil. people trade their freedom for security, effectively empowering the evils we want to defeat.
May 7 2013: "the situation is nowhere near as serious as it were in the 20's or 30's"
The situation is completely different and is more serious on some levels, zeitgeist more advanced and evolving/changing faster thanks to new technologies.
May 7 2013: but we don't have the SA marching on the street, so i prefer our era to the 30's. but i don't see the situation that much different, can you explain why is it different?
here is a quick summary of one of the times, either ours or theirs, i don't tell which: in the middle of an elongated economic crisis, the reason of which is largely unclear, inflation fails deliver the hoped recovery. the masses falling into poverty or fearing falling into poverty turn to political organizations or movements that promises them the solution: take the country from the selected few, and give it back to the hard working people, where it belongs.
May 7 2013: Hi,
I believe I have - it's a different era, the flow of information is much faster and global, much more diversed, edited and re-edited constantly by different groups using different platforms. That's one of the differences, there are others obviously...
"take the country from the selected few, and give it back to the hard working people, where it belongs."
Define "country", define "hard working", define "belong".

May 7 2013: 1. Our inability to design the built environment to function with in the greater ecology of the world without harming it. This has lead to habitat loss, species extinction, global warming, pollution, as well as health concerns for individuals living in these places.

2. The in balance of food supply and food demand in the world. Places like US suffer from obesity and an excess of food supply and the inability to have matching demand, while other areas of the planet suffer from the exact opposite - a lack of food with a high demand.
3. The cycle of extreme radicalism and hatred which is breeding violence, and the lack of ability to identify, prevent, or solve how such acts occur, whether they are by groups of people or individuals that are self-radicalized.
May 7 2013: Well said.
2. The in balance of food supply and food demand in the world. Places like US suffer from obesity and an excess of food supply and the inability to have matching demand, while other areas of the planet suffer from the exact opposite - a lack of food with a high demand.
The circle gets even more vicious when lack of awareness within the US about what is happening in other places of the world leads to misuse and misplacement of assets.May 7 2013: In a word; Greed. We can cite climate, war, famine, disparity, or thousands of other pressing issues, but these will only be symptoms of the one true illness that currently afflicts humanity and is driving it towards it's end. It is only when we dispose of Greed that we will be able to address and dispose of the whole spectrum of human ills.
May 7 2013: Absolutely, it is also the cause of many if not all crimes committed.
And all this craziness our governments are engaging in without the people's knowledge.
We are constantly being fed images about how bigger, faster, more is better.

May 13 2013: Thanks, Mary.
I just wish all smiles were honest.
But yes, let's try :)
May 9 2013: Oh, I don't know. Locally I think the big topic is the closing of the Starbucks location. Everybody seems to be pretty upset. The fact that 3 bil. people would have to work 2 full days to earn enough to buy a latte never crosses our mind. Leash-laws for pet dogs is pretty big too. 2 million incarcerated fellow citizens (mostly minorities and no financial crisis leaders) are not part of that discussion. But the biggest issue is scratched car's vandalism. People get hot(!) about that. $1bil per day spent on the military plus I don't know how many hundreds of millions spent on 'homeland security' are not even referenced. So i guess I would say the answer to the question is one: Distraction.
- +2
May 12 2013: Isn't "Distraction" that you mention one of the greatest powers of governments, according to Noam Chomsky?
May 13 2013: Other than general knowledge, I'm not well-versed with the work of Chomsky, but I do know this: anyone who has worked in any leadership/management capacity in business or gov't knows that the 'customer' and the employees are managed as well. PR depts are the most obvious result. The 'good of the company' is of paramount importance. That means those in power and position will not relinquish it, whether that means throwing their employees to the wolves (fired) or ' selling out' the company to some other interest (gov't lies). The customers and the employees hear that as 'restructuring' or 'a different direction', and the citizens hear it as 'the 3rd building fell from fire even though it was not hit by a plane' (the first in history), or 'we invade because they have WMD's (like they're the only ones), oops, and can't leave because we now have to restructure the country (and this all cost how much, and who owns the companies supplying the restructure, and we get exactly what in return, and who authorized this, and by also bankrupting the world you and your friends have 'the right plan', and the 'terrorists' are who exactly?). How does 'leadership' manage 7 billion 'customers'? I think the 'distraction' hypothesis is a reasonably assumable tactic, whether it be intentional or just advantageous.
- 0
May 13 2013: I atually don't remember that much of Chomsky either, just some general points.
"How does 'leadership' manage 7 billion 'customers'?"
It doesn't manage. It may be a source of inspiration. But it doesn't mean it cannot manage, I think.
"I think the 'distraction' hypothesis is a reasonably assumable tactic, whether it be intentional or just advantageous."
Can you elaborate/expand this?
May 14 2013: you recognized 'distraction' as a tactic by referring to Chomsky. I did not look up his definition, but I take it to mean that we (the rank and file citizen) are too busy to pay attention to the big picture. Whether it's intentional, ie the go'vt and/or powers that be manipulate our lives to keep us 'distracted', or we're distracted simply by living our lives and not having enough energy to give to such issues, the result is that we are 'distracted' from giving our attention to the big issues, and therefore there is little opposition to gov't and/or big business 'initiatives'.

May 7 2013: 1.) Man is largely adrift regarding knowledge of the origin, purpose, and fate of Existence. Attention must be focused upon Philosophy. To know Why is as, or more, important than knowing What. 2.) As a global community we must recognize threats to peace and individul freedom. When acts of tyranny meant to forcefuly subdue others are allowed to continue unchallenged the perpetrators will not stop short of world domination. We must be appropriately forceful against tyranny. 3.) We must restore the administration of swift punitive action against graft and corruption in leadership at every level of government, society, and business. 4.) We must make the best effort to educate ourselves regarding reading, writing, math, history, and Critical Thinking. The current plan to dumb-down some nations while smartening-up others to establish a homogenized world population must be abandoned. Dumbing-down is always wrong!
- +2
May 9 2013: Edward, all of your points really hit home with me.
The very first, in particular: "To know Why is as, or more, important than knowing What."
We can all memorize facts and deliver them on command, but if we don't know where those facts come from, we may as well be talking parrots.
edward long
May 9 2013: The higher education system reflects the aura of erudition attached to Philosophy. We must learn all all about the Who, the What, the When, the How and the Where, but not the Why. First graduate High School, then get your Bachelors Degree. Now get your Masters Degree. Finally, after nearly 20-years of formal learning you are qualified to study why all the information you have amassed is important. Then you get a PhD and everyone calls you "Doctor"! The first questions we ask as children is, "Why Mommy?" or "Why Daddy?"but it is the last question academia addresses.
- +2
May 9 2013: Exactly, Edward.
My kids are in the asking phase as we speak. Although I am definitely no scholar, I am so grateful to them for this! In trying to formulate a way to explain something in a simplified yet clear way to them, I am secretly learning! I feel privileged that I still often get the chance to do something for the first time with my children. They engage me in finding out what's really important.
Last night, I heard my daughter say to her little brother, "Mama knows just about everything, just ask her". I was flattered, not only because she acknowledged I knew a thing or two, but especially because she acknowledged that I didn't know everything!
An 8-year-old autistic child once said to me, "I can do everything, I just have to learn how to first". Words to live by.May 12 2013: There are too many people in the world living a life which is based on taking and not giving, a selfish life which cares only about oneself and all the world becomes the other. It is this alienation which creates the problems, this separate self which is afraid, which hates, which lives a life of habit.
May 13 2013: Thanks.
I see your point. The desperate housewives and their self, the clinging to power, sentiments and fears.
On the other hand, alienation is sometimes necessary to maintain sanity and there are different levels of it. Some groups or societies are alienated because of their own will, some do not have a choice but to live a life of habit.
It was an interesting comment and a summary, I'm just trying to point out the fact that the diversity of the world and people living in it.

May 10 2013: the most pressing issue is people's passivity
- +1
May 12 2013: ...which can be having hands tied or not being aware that there is work to be done.May 8 2013: What do humans need to survive in the most basic sense?
Why do these things cost money? Who has the right, who is cruel enough to deny these basic necessities of life to anyone? We live in a world today with the resources and know how to meet this demand. Yet we do nothing because the economical system we live in would collapse. I say that right there is a redundant system. A system with a purpose, that is not in the best interests of humanity.
Technology has advanced to the stage where it has and is going to continue to replace jobs because machines are more efficient and reliable. That's a good thing, taking people away from mundane and repetitive tasks to give them the opportunity to live a more fulfilling life.
Currently though this advancement in our civilization has had adverse affects because of how we regulate our resources through the trade of money. We all live and die, that is nature's law. Why should there be a price on life, it was given so why aren't the necessities to live given also?
What gives people authority of possession over land? It was there a long time before we got here and is going to be there a lot longer when we aren't. Shouldn't it be used in a strategic and sustainable way to improve humanities quality of life and the life of the creatures we share it with?
I believe the key to moving towards this way of life is awareness through education. Moving our focus away from the small things in today's society which are most likely just symptoms of the cause: We will never fix the cause by just treating the symptoms. Use the symptoms to diagnose the cause.
Imagine that tomorrow there was no money. We no longer need to fight to survive; we have advanced to the point where we can provide for everyone. Lets make history, you and I. We were the ones that ended poverty, pollution and inequality. That's a legacy to pass on to the next generation to be proud of!May 6 2013: Food poverty. Definitely.
May 7 2013: Indeed, Ricardo - severe lack of food on one place on the world, and mountains of surplus in another!Jun 6 2013: I believe mental illness to be one of the most pressing issues.
Jun 6 2013: Are you thinking of the madness exposed in this recently added talk?
...or less drastic, but also "ill" to a certain extent, as shown here?
But I do agree, mental illness, especially when codified into social injustice, is a pressing issue, I just don't really know what you're getting at.May 17 2013: First of all every 'issue' is 'most' pressing issue; be it violence, inability to understand feature of power, inability to understand in general, 'dirty' politics etc. It doesn't matter local or global. It doesn't matter because the 'ultimate solution' covers both.
Secondly, partially the solution lies in understanding and giving importance to 'individual' and not that to 'collectiveness'.
Suppose an individual wants and feel the need to do something about these 'issues'. He will need the 'ultimate tool' to deliver. Its very good and overwhelming that people all around the globe are now inspired and motivated to bring the so called 'change' which might serve as a cure to any of these issues be it local or global. But its of no use at all ...let me repeat that...no use at all, if the 'ultimate tool' is not discovered!
So, in my opinion the most pressing issue right now is that of knowing what this 'ultimate tool' would be!
May 18 2013: Are you refering to the so-called Great Unified Theory?
Best wishes,
May 18 2013: i don't know what you mean by 'great unified theory'...
people will keep on asking questions, keep on 'believing', will keep on fearing etc...unless one discovers the truth, which is the 'ultimate tool'. It is not collective but is indeed individual.
The world is asleep! so many people post their views are too asleep...people do all sorts of things while they are asleep. In short... the 'ultimate solution' lies in waking up these people !
May 18 2013: Thanks, Samuel :)
I am awake, I think, I'm not sure, and I feel that the great unified theory is at hand.
Love-thee good and big thing- is the answer (either in eugenics, economy, para/uni/trans/eu/etc-interdisciplinary knowledge and wisdom, sociolinguistics, microbiology, astrophysics, you name it)
Best wishes :)May 18 2013: i can see that you're trying hard...but yes indeed you are too asleep!
I can see that you 'wish' a lot...its simply reaction and not 'response'...as it is repetition,out of past and not that of present.
But keeping your original question in mind...most pressing issue would be the problem related to understand the features of power in our society by individuals...(more inclined towards politics)...
So if one is not awake then its going to be repetition and 1000 more anna will log in to ted to address the 'then' issues....May 10 2013: All governments need to hand over the management of things (education, charity, health care) to the private secure, and focus on creating new national projects for the good of their country.
Projects like a national and international online education system, emergency response force/army, a national canal system so water will flow from an area flooding to a drought area, a department of holistic management to stop and reverse desertification, and etc. and then after so many years hand their creation over to the private sector.May 7 2013: "We've got big trouble coming within 50 years if we don't fix the family. "
...while remembering that who and why starts a family differs from culture to culture and that in other cultures the core societaql unit may be a problem itself. "Dissolution of the family" may be the result of other pressing issues - war, class gap, others.
Your comment doesn't resonate with me fully, I'm sorry.May 7 2013: Money.
Poverty is the reasoning for most broken homes, murders, stealing, cheating, health issues, lack of food quality and quantity, money and its domination of all civilizations prevents everyone on this planet from reaching their full potential, it is also making the gap from adolescence to adulthood longer.
And all of these conspiracy theories coming to light about different things, lying has become to common among people who are supposed to be demonstrating integrity, honesty, and loyalty at all times.
We need a worldwide change, so our entire way of doing things can change for the better, it starts with getting rid of big governments, lobbyists and the elites influence on the governments and then the eradication of all monetary systems. We will never grow with the two of these things.
May 7 2013: Money or lack of money or fear of lacking money.
"eradication of all monetary systems"
It's interesing that you should formulate this in this way, there's a new issue on news' stands in Nordic countires - making begging in the streets illegal which is some cases literally means - making homelessness illegal. You can meet beggars (to simplify the issue) with notes - "Help me not to become a criminal", sometimes a beggar with an expensive phone, texting, with a paper cup beside, or influx of beggars from around the globe. The latter get magazines to give away and toilets to use (that horses used by some police forces should be trained to use too, but that's a different issue,,,). Ex drug-addicts get magazines that they can sell in the streets... And cash that can be traded for either magazines or a good mood ("I helped somebody") is not used that often. From what I observe - it's used to hide one's actions, not to trade goods. Would making the flow of assets digital get rid of some of the issues we're facing today? Maybe, to a certain extent. Just an audacious idea, not well deliberated/thought-through.

But it doesn't stop the room for greed and corruption, it's not just issues of the economy and work, bills, taxes, debt that we're trying to solve. We also need to save the integrity of mankind, because greed can lead to death of our species... it's slowly leading to our extinction now. That is why I feel that ALL monetary systems need to be eradicated. We need to prevent greed, condition people to do and work for themselves and not other people. Teach people self responsibility, and giving to others without the mindset that something needs to be received. We need to learn moderation. The monetary systems prevent so much good from occurring in mankind, it has inhibited us from reaching our full potential. Which is why I do not understand why people still feel the need to hold onto this old way of life, as we evolve so should our way of doing things.
May 8 2013: Hmm. Ok. By the way - all of the situations I've described above are real though in some monetary systems, or for people living in monetary systems out of sentiment or disbelief, they might be too had to believe.
Uniqea Monie
May 8 2013: this is true... But if minds can be manipulated , and people are skilled in doing the manipulation, why can't we all be conditioned to accepting a new reality? Our transitions we have made throughout the years have all been possible by us accepting new realities.May 7 2013: The rapid dissolution of the family as the core societal unit. In the U.S. at least 40 percent of children are born outside of marriage. "Researchers have consistently found that children born outside marriage face elevated risks of falling into poverty, failing in school or suffering emotional and behavioral problems." That's 40 percent of the rising generation, or about a million and a half at-risk babies a year. Not all of these are single mothers, but a cohabiting household is more than twice as likely to dissolve as a marriage. "Reviewing the academic literature, Susan L. Brown of Bowling Green State University recently found that children born to married couples, on average, 'experience better education, social, cognitive and behavioral outcomes.'" I got all these figures and quotes from just this one article. (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/18/us/for-women-under-30-most-births-occur-outside-marriage.html?pagewanted=all) There are mountains of research on this subject, and nobody's doing much about it.
- +1
The main problem here is a rising class gap between the rich and poor. It puts lots of pressure on our society in a very quiet way. Other problems such as global warming, staggering national debt, and widespread corruption and dishonesty contribute to the pressure. We've got big trouble coming within 50 years if we don't fix the family.

Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
I am designing the cover for INSURRECTION, Shawn's second book in the Allon fantasy series. As the development progresses, I would appreciate any constructive feedback.
Shawn is also soliciting feedback on her blog and Facebook Group.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
I like them both Rob. The brown would work out since it would more closely match the color of the first book. But if I had to choose on color alone I'd say I'm partial to the steel blue.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
Thanks for the input, Charles.
I have a few more iterations to post as we try out different looks. It will be one of these 2 color schemes. This time I added bare trees with an embossed effect. I should add that the setting for the story is winter.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
I think the trees help. The first rendition looks good, but with the embossed tree designs, the cover becomes more interesting and suggestive. We're getting a glimpse into some aspect of the story. It also gives the feeling of shattered glass, which relates to the turmoil involved in an insurrection.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
I agree with all the above comments Charles made. The trees with the blue. ButI feel like the letters should be flat though. No bevel or emboss. too much at that point, especially with the trees. I would also bring down the letters in size unless you're trying to match pre existing editions. Sometimes large fonts work against the design. But thats personal preference. take it with a grain of salt.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
Charles - Your comment about the trees resembling broken glass was not something I planned, but it is an interesting insight.
Snakebite - The embossed type is a style that was set in the first book cover. The font size is actually smaller than the first book and many times smaller than the industry average.
With yours and other feedback in mind I have changed the embossed trees to faded light outlines (at Shawn's request - author's privilege) and added a frame to tie it to the vintage book design of the first cover.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
I think with the fade of the trees the embossed font doesn't bug me now. the boarder ties everything in. very nice!
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
There's something about the toned trees as opposed to the outlines. Rob, would you mind trying another version? One with the toned trees within the border.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
Your order is ready ...
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
That's the way to go Rob. Try and convince your wife that the solid toned trees are a more appealing design that the outlined trees. For one thing, the image reads better as trees. I'm not entirely sold on the design border, but I think it's probably a better way to go. The trees without it gives me the feeling / impression of desolation. The border does something to counter that. Plus it relates to the cover of her first book as it had a border design on the cover as well. In any case, personally I'm partial to the solid tone tree design.
Re: Allon - Book 2 - Insurrection cover
Charles: Shawn found your remarks very interesting and will keep them under advisement. The polls we took on her Allon Facebook group and blog preferred the previous version. Still, we are a month or two away from having to make a final decision, so we will live with the choices for a while.
Thanks for the thoughtful feedback from both you and Snakebite.

National Alliance on Mental Illness
page printed from NAMI Springfield
The Area's Voice on Mental Illness
What is NAMI Springfield?
NAMI is the National Alliance on Mental Illness. NAMI Springfield, founded in 1981, is the local affiliate for NAMI in the Springfield, Illinois, area. We are a grassroots, not-for-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to improving the lives of persons living with serious mental illness, and the lives of their families and friends. We work together to meet the NAMI mission through support, education, advocacy, and research.
NAMI Springfield is in its 33rd year of serving people with mental illness and their families and friends.
Severe mental illnesses are catastrophic diseases with unknown causes and cures, but treatment can be effective. They often strike young people in their most productive years and can devastate families emotionally, physically, and financially. People with mental illness deserve appropriate care; but because of stigma and discrimination, many are not able to access needed treatment, services, education, housing, and employment opportunities.
NAMI Springfield is directed by an active Board of Directors.
NAMI Springfield is dedicated to the task of eradicating mental illness and improving the lives of persons with mental illness and their families.
We welcome all who have felt alone because of a brain disorder within the family. We hope you will join us in the rapidly growing network of people who are dedicated to the welfare of persons with a brain disorder and their families.
French lore holds that the 3 petals of the iris symbolize
FAITH, WISDOM, and VALOR.
The iris has been adopted by NAMI to represent these same personal
traits reflected by so many who struggle with serious brain disorders.

Supersaturation Profile, 24 Hour, Urine
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Urine is often supersaturated, which favors precipitation of several crystalline phases such as calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, and uric acid. However, crystals do not always form in supersaturated urine because supersaturation is balanced by crystallization inhibitors that are also present in urine. Urinary inhibitors include ions (eg, citrate) and macromolecules but remain poorly understood.
Urine supersaturation is calculated by measuring the concentration of all the ions that can interact (potassium, calcium, phosphorus, oxalate, uric acid, citrate, magnesium, sodium, chloride, sulfate, and pH). Once the concentrations of all the relevant urinary ions are known, a computer program can calculate the theoretical supersaturation with respect to the important crystalline phases, eg, calcium oxalate.(1)
Since the supersaturation of urine has been shown to correlate with stone type(2), therapy is often targeted towards decreasing those urinary supersaturations that are identified. Treatment strategies include alterations in diet and fluid intake as well as drug therapy, all designed to decrease the urine supersaturation.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosis and management of patients with renal lithiasis:
-In patients who have a radiopaque stone, for whom stone analysis is not available, the supersaturation data can be used to predict the likely composition of the stone. This may help in designing a treatment program.
-Individual components of the supersaturation profile can identify specific risk factors for stones.
-During follow-up, changes in the urine supersaturation can be used to monitor the effectiveness of therapy by confirming that the crystallization potential has indeed decreased.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Delta G (DG), the Gibbs free energy of transfer from a supersaturated to a saturated solution is negative for undersaturated solutions and positive for supersaturated solutions. In most cases the supersaturation levels are slightly positive even in normal individuals but are balanced by an inhibitor activity.
While the DG of urine is often positive, even in the urine of nonstone formers, on average, the DG is even more positive in those individuals who do form kidney stones. The "normal" values are simply derived by comparing urinary DG values for the important stone-forming crystalline phases between a population of stone formers and a population of nonstone formers. Those DG values that are outside the expected range in a population of nonstone formers are marked "abnormal."
A normal or increased citrate value suggests that potassium citrate may be a less effective choice for treatment of a patient with calcium oxalate or calcium phosphate stones.
If the urine citrate is low, secondary causes should be excluded including hypokalemia, renal tubular acidosis, gastrointestinal bicarbonate losses (eg, diarrhea or malabsorption), or an exogenous acid load (eg, excessive consumption of meat protein).
An increased urinary oxalate value may prompt a search for genetic abnormalities of oxalate production (ie, primary hyperoxaluria). Secondary hyperoxaluria can result from diverse gastrointestinal disorders that result in malabsorption. Milder hyperoxaluria could result from excess dietary oxalate consumption, or reduced calcium (dairy) intake, perhaps even in the absence of gastrointestinal disease.
The results can be used to determine the likely effect of a therapeutic intervention on stone-forming risk. For example, taking oral potassium citrate will raise the urinary citrate excretion, which should reduce calcium phosphate supersaturation (by reducing free ionic calcium), but citrate administration also increases urinary pH (because it represents an alkali load) and a higher urine pH promotes calcium phosphate crystallization. The net result of this or any therapeutic manipulation could be assessed by collecting a 24-hour urine and comparing the supersaturation calculation for calcium phosphate before and after therapy.
Important stone-specific factors:
-Calcium oxalate stones: urine volume, calcium, oxalate, citrate, and uric acid excretion are all risk factors that are possible targets for therapeutic intervention.
-Calcium phosphate stones (apatite or brushite): urinary volume, calcium, pH, and citrate significantly influence the supersaturation for calcium phosphate. Of note, a urine pH <6 may help reduce the tendency for these stones to form.
-Uric acid stones: urine pH, volume, and uric acid excretion levels influence the supersaturation. Urine pH is especially critical, in that uric acid is unlikely to crystallize if the pH is >6.
-Sodium urate stones: alkaline pH and high uric acid excretion promote stone formation.
A low urine volume is a universal risk factor for all types of kidney stones.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
The urine is often supersaturated with respect to the common crystalline constituents of stones, even in nonstone formers.
Individual interpretation of the supersaturation values in light of the clinical situation is critical. In particular, treatment may reduce the supersaturation with respect to 1 crystal type, but increase the supersaturation with respect to another. Therefore, the specific goals of treatment must be considered when interpreting the test results.

text: Today kicks off three days of conservative pageantry at the 38th annual Conservative Political Action Conference, held at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel in Washington. The large field of potential candidates for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012 will be well represented, but a major sideshow is stealing some attention. Some conservative leaders are boycotting the event in protest of the gay rights group GOProud's participation, among others. We take a look at the regulars, the surprise guests, and the surprise absences of this year's CPAC.

This module makes it possible to limit the number of concurrent connections for a defined key such as, for example, an ip address.
Example configuration
http { limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=one:2m; limit_conn_log_level notice; server { location /download { limit_conn one 1; } } }
ERROR in secure-include.php: could not read the given src URL http://wiki.nginx.org/nginx.org/ngx_http_limit_conn_module/limit_conn.txt
Sets the maximum allowed number of connections for a given zone. When this limit is exceeded, the server will return a status error 503 (Service Temporarily Unavailable) in reply to the request.
Multiple limit directives for different zones can be used in the same context and each will apply.
Standard nginx inheritance applies. Lower contexts will inherit from higher context so long as there are no similar directives in the current context.
ERROR in secure-include.php: could not read the given src URL http://wiki.nginx.org/nginx.org/ngx_http_limit_conn_module/limit_conn_zone.txt
Sets the parameters for a zone that keeps state for various keys. This state stores the current number of connections in particular. The key is the value of the specified variable. Example usage:
limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=addr:10m;
Here, an IP address of the client serves as a key. Note that instead of $remote_addr, the $binary_remote_addr variable is used here. The length of the $remote_addr variable's value can range from 7 to 15 bytes, and the stored state occupies either 32 or 64 bytes of memory on 32-bit platforms, and always 64 bytes on 64-bit platforms. The length of the $binary_remote_addr variable's value is always 4 bytes, and the stored state always occupies 32 bytes on 32-bit platforms, and 64 bytes on 64-bit platforms. One megabyte zone can keep about 32 thousand 32-bit states, and about 16 thousand 64-byte states. If the storage for a zone is exhausted, the server will return error 503 (Service Temporarily Unavailable) to all further requests.
ERROR in secure-include.php: could not read the given src URL http://wiki.nginx.org/nginx.org/ngx_http_limit_conn_module/limit_conn_log_level.txt
Sets the error log level used when a connection limit is reached.

Food is a focus in most of the holidays we celebrate. But there is no holiday like Thanksgiving, where the meal is absolutely the main event.
It isn't enough to have a large turkey or maybe stuffed ham. The entire meal needs to reflect a family's traditions. There must be traditional side dishes and time-honored holiday desserts.
The Enterprise invited readers to share favorite recipes they use to round out their Thanksgiving Day feast — what they serve with their big bird — and readers sent in a well-rounded selection of dishes. The dishes covered the spectrum of traditional holiday fare — cranberries, brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, dressing and pumpkin.
The first recipe we received was for cranberry salad from Juanita Eppard of Hollywood. "This is a recipe given to me by our secretary at Owens Road Elementary in Prince George's County in November 1971 named Gladys Briles," Eppard wrote in an email. "I have used it ever since and my family has always loved it."
It features fresh cranberries and oranges, along with canned pineapple and nuts.
Julie Kemp of Hollywood shared a dressing recipe passed down in her husband's family. "I was raised by a mom from Midwestern roots. Although a great cook, her stuffing was boring. When I married a New Yorker 42 years ago, I was thrilled with my mother-in-law's stuffing," Kemp wrote. "We no longer 'stuff' the turkey so we now call it 'dressing.' Her dressing was pleasing to the taste and the eye. She stopped putting in chopped giblets to please me."
Liat Mackey, family and consumer sciences extension educator for University of Maryland Extension St. Mary's County, is practically duty bound by her job to suggest something healthy. She did not disappoint. She suggested serving roasted brussels sprouts with a balsamic vinegar drizzle on top.
Mackey noted that brussels sprouts aren't for everyone, but that roasting them enhances the vegetable's sweetness, thereby appealing to a wider range of taste buds.
They are "the ultimate family palate and plate divider at our Thanksgiving table," Liat wrote. "There are those who insist that Aunt Liat's brussels sprouts have prime real estate on the side dish table, and those that pass on the green acreage and opt for the real mashed potatoes, which are not a longstanding traditional dish in my family — mostly a dish by marriage into the meat and potato lovers genetic pool."
True to her vocation, Mackel described how good brussels sprouts are for you. Brussels sprouts are "in the cruciferous vegetable family, known for cancer risk reducing phytochemicals naturally present in them. Cruciferous vegetables, such as brussels sprouts, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale and others, are also good sources of fiber, minerals, and vitamins, such as vitamin A and C."
Beverley Schwartzenburg of Lexington Park sent in a recipe she brought from her native country that features a traditional Thanksgiving ingredient.
"I am Australian and so Thanksgiving was a complete change for me when I got married," Schwartzenburg wrote. "I love the Thanksgiving celebration. As our family grew and we started celebrating Thanksgiving at our house, pumpkin soup is an Australian favorite which was very easy to add to our Thanksgiving meal."
The fifth recipe was sent in by Michael and Silvana Martirano, the superintendent of St. Mary's County schools and his wife. The Martiranos' recipe for sweet potato pie features a glaze of real maple syrup and a nutty topping.
"This is one of the favorite Martirano family Thanksgiving desserts," the superintendent wrote. "The holidays have officially begun after eating a generous slice of this fantastic pie."
The Enterprise test kitchen tried out three of these five recipes — the sweet potato pie, cranberry salad and the roasted brussels sprouts.
The cranberry salad was easy to prepare, made a large amount and was pronounced "very good!" by a member of the test kitchen family. We doubled the sweet potato pie recipe, as recommended, and thought the maple syrup and nuts made this recipe stand out.
The very healthy brussels sprouts were also easy to prepare and the drizzle of reduced balsamic vinegar made the dish special. As far as the test kitchen was concerned, this was the best method ever attempted for making brussels sprouts.
Thanks all those who were kind enough to share their special Thanksgiving recipes with our readers. Happy Thanksgiving.
Cranberry salad
1 quart raw cranberries 2 oranges (1 peeled and 1 unpeeled) 1 cup sugar 1 small can crushed pineapple 1� packages of strawberry gelatin (small packages)
1/2 cup chopped celery (optional) 1/2 cup nut meats (optional) 1 cup hot water
Put cranberries and oranges through food processor, then add nuts, sugar, pineapple, celery. Dissolve gelatin in one cup of hot water and add to mixture. Place in refrigerator until congealed.
Note: "I always use nuts and leave out celery."

El's Super Dressing
2 long loaves of either cracked or whole wheat bread 5-6 ribs of celery, chopped finely 2 large onions, chopped finely 1 pound mild sausage in a tube 2 large apples, chopped, unpeeled 1� tsp. poultry seasoning 2 large cans of diced tomatoes (or whole that you cut)
Brown onions, celery, and sausage until sausage is cooked. Drain grease. Drain tomatoes. In a large bowl, tear the bread into small chunks. Moisten bread gradually with tomato juice. It's possible there will be extra, so don't add all at once. Add everything and cut together, or mix with hands. Place in two greased 9"x 13" casserole dishes. This freezes well if pre-prepping is desired. Bake at about 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Depending on how crunchy you want it to be, cover with foil for first half of baking time. Great cold, too! Enjoy!

Roasted brussels sprouts
Select firm, fresh brussels sprouts that are no more than about 1-inch long and in diameter. Wash them, and peel and discard (or compost) the outer leaves. Cut them in half, quarters for larger ones.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts in olive oil and lightly salt and pepper them. Spread only one layer thick on a nonstick baking sheet. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until they are soft but not mushy and caramelized (browned, but do not let them burn). Shake or toss them in the pan after about 25 minutes of baking time.
Serve when done, or chill and reheat later. You can also drizzle a little balsamic vinegar that has been reduced by cooking and stirring it in a pan on medium heat on the stove, until the vinegar is like a thin syrup and about half the amount you started with. Make this after you turn the sprouts in the oven. It may get too thick/brittle if done too far in advance. Drizzle a little bit over the sprouts and gently toss before serving.

2 pounds of real sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed 1� cups of plain yogurt � cup packed, dark brown sugar � teaspoon of nutmeg � teaspoon of cinnamon 5 egg yolks
� teaspoon of salt 1 (9-inch) deep dish, frozen pie shell 1 cup chopped pecans, toasted 2 to 3 tablespoons of maple syrup (there is no substitute and you must splurge and get the real thing) 1 can of whipped dairy cream topping
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Place cubed sweet potatoes into a steamer basket and put steamer basket into a large pot of simmering water that is no closer than a few inches from the bottom of the basket. Allow the sweet potatoes to steam for at least 20 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fork tender. Mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher and set aside and allow them to cool.
Place sweet potatoes in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until smooth. Add yogurt, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, yolks and salt and beat until all ingredients are combined. Pour this batter into the pie shell and place onto a sheet pan. Sprinkle pecans on top and drizzle with maple syrup (We like lots of pecans and maple syrup).
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until the custard reaches 165 or 180 degrees F. Remove from oven and cool. When serving each slice, place extra pecans and syrup on top of each slice along with a generous amount of whipped cream. If there is any pie leftover, which we doubt, place it in the refrigerator. Additionally, we usually double the recipe and make two pies because this pie disappears so quickly. Enjoy.

1... DeMarcus Milliner*, CB, Alabama
Height: 6-1. Weight: 182.
Projected 40 Time: 4.45.
Projected Round (2013): Top 20.
11/10/12: Milliner was having a tremendous season, but his play has cooled off as of late. He didn't play as well against Mississippi State and LSU. Milliner allowed a number of receptions, was called for penalties and had some missed tackles. However those games weren't a complete failure as he wasn't burned for any scores and had a blocked kick with some good tackles.
Milliner had a great game against Ole Miss with an interception, half of a sack and four passes broken up. He had two tackles and a pass broken up versus Arkansas a couple weeks earlier. The junior almost had an interception with a long return, but it was ruled that he had trapped the ball.
Milliner was dominant against Michigan in Week 1. He broke up four passes, had five tackles and returned an interception 35 yards. Milliner's one mistake came when he lost his footing and fell down in man coverage. That allowed his receiver to get wide open for a score.
Milliner is third in the nation with total passes defensed with 15. He has 24 tackles, two interceptions and 13 passes broken up. Milliner is probably the best man-to-man cover corner prospect for the 2013 NFL Draft, and, as a result, he is rated at the top of his position.
9/1/12: Milliner really played well in 2011 and did a good job as teams threw his direction more to avoid cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick. With Kirkpatrick and DeQuan Menzie in the NFL, Milliner will take on a bigger role in 2012 as a full-time starter. He had 27 tackles with three interceptions and nine pases broken up in 2011. Milliner led the Crimson Tide defense in interceptions, and he played extremely well overall as the nickelback.
Milliner had 55 tackles with four tackles for a loss, seven passes broken up, one forced fumble and one interception as a freshman. He has good size and speed like all of the recent Alabama defensive backs. Milliner could have a breakout season in college football and rise high in the cornerback rankings.
2... Xavier Rhodes*, CB, Florida State
Height: 6-2. Weight: 215.
Projected 40 Time: 4.44.
Projected Round (2013): Top 20.
11/10/12: Rhodes passed what will likely be his biggest test of the season against Clemson. The redshirt junior didn't play a lights-out game in coverage against the Tigers' dynamic duo, Watkins and Hopkins, but he was solid and kept either of them from big plays when he went against them in man coverage.
Florida State mixed in zone and man assignments, so Rhodes did not have to go against Sammy Watkins and DeAndre Hopkins exclusively in man coverage. Hopkins had 88 yards on five receptions, but 60 came on one touchdown reception against zone coverage where the safety failed to pick him up running down the field. Watkins had 24 yards on six receptions. Rhodes finished with three tackles and a pass breakup against Clemson.
Rhodes has totaled 25 tackles with six passes broken up and two interceptions this season, but teams have mostly avoided him.
9/1/12: Rhodes was consistent as a cover corner last year, so teams threw away from him. The sophomore had 43 tackles with an interception and four passes broken up.
Rhodes had an interesting conclusion to 2011. He was matched up against Notre Dame wide receiver Michael Floyd and put together a phenomenal tape for NFL evaluators.
While providing blanket coverage against Floyd, one of the best receivers in the nation, Rhodes went down in a multi-player collision in the second half. He sustained a knee strain and was held out of the end of the game. Prior to Rhodes' injury, Floyd had only three catches for 22 yards.
Rhodes made an immediate impact for Florida State breaking into the lineup as a redshirt freshman. He recorded 58 tackles, four interceptions and 12 passes broken up, along with being named the ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year.
Rhodes is a big cornerback who is very physical with receivers. He does a good job in press man coverage. Off the snap, Rhodes limits the release with a strong jam and rerouting skills. He has the speed and athletic ability to run with receivers after the jam.
Against Floyd, Rhodes showed the ability to match up with an elite receiver. Floyd couldn't beat Rhodes with speed or size. He is a good run defender who is capable of putting on some nice hits on ball-carriers
3...Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
Height: 6-2. Weight: 185.
Projected 40 Time: 4.44.
Projected Round (2013): 1.
11/10/12: Banks has totaled 45 tackles, four interceptions and five passes broken up so far in 2012. He had an excellent game against Auburn with two interceptions. They came in the second quarter and helped the Bulldogs pull away from the Tigers.
In the following weeks, Banks had some great games. He had huge performances against Tennessee and Middle Tennessee State, but he injured his knee in the latter. That injury has lingered, yet Banks has continued to play. The knee seemed to be slowing him down against Alabama and Texas A&M as he wasn't his normal play-making self.
9/1/12: Banks has been a three-year contributor for the Bulldogs. Playing in the SEC, he is already experienced and battle-tested entering his senior year. Banks had 33 tackles and four interceptions as a freshman, including two pick-sixs against Tim Tebow in a near upset of a No. 1-ranked Florida team.
Banks totaled 54 tackles with three interceptions as a sophomore. He had 71 tackles with five interceptions, three sacks, three forced fumbles and nine passes broken last season.
It wouldn't be surprising if Banks' numbers decline as a senior since teams will probably avoid throwing at him. He has a nice combination of size, speed and athleticism. Banks may fit best in a zone-based system in the NFL.
4... David Amerson*, CB, North Carolina State
Height: 6-3. Weight: 194.
Projected 40 Time: 4.46.
Projected Round (2013): 1.
11/10/12: Amerson had a rough first week of the season as he was beaten for a 41-yard touchdown and a 72-yard touchdown by Tennessee's dangerous passing attack. He recovered from those two early mistakes and played better for the rest of the game.
Amerson had an ugly performance versus Miami as he was beaten for two touchdowns in man coverage. He had interceptions in three straight games prior to that against the Citadel, South Alabama and Connecticut. Amerson has totaled 38 tackles, four interceptions and five passes broken up in 2012. His stock has fallen.
9/1/12: Amerson has a special skill set with size, speed and ball skills. He was simply phenomenal in 2011. Amerson totaled 13 interceptions to lead the nation. That set both school and ACC records since it was the second highest total in FBS history. He also had 59 tackles with five passes broken up. The All-American started nine games as a true freshman in 2010 and had zero interceptions with 57 tackles and a forced fumble.
When the ball is in the air, Amerson is extremely aggressive. He looks like a natural wide receiver with his hands and body control. Meanwhile, his innate ball skills are extremely rare.
Amerson played some safety in high school and should be able to play the position in the NFL if a team wants to move him there. That may be considered if he fills out his frame and gets bigger as he ages.
Teams will avoid throwing in Amerson's direction this season, so it will be hard for him to lead the nation in interceptions again. If he plays well in his best matchups against talented receivers (Tennessee and Clemson) that should help offset the drop in interceptions
5... Jordan Poyer, CB, Oregon State
Height: 6-0. Weight: 190.
Projected 40 Time: 4.45.
Projected Round (2013): 1-2.
11/10/12: Poyer has been playing really well as a senior. He had a great start against Wisconsin. Poyer had three tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and a pass broken up to help the Beavers upset the Badgers. He had three interceptions against Washington State. Poyer missed the game versus Arizona State with a sprained posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. The senior is practicing and projected to play against Stanford.
Poyer has totaled 27 tackles, five interceptions, three tackles for a loss, one forced fumble, one sack and three passes broken up so far in 2012.
9/1/12: Poyer has been an impact player for Oregon State the past few seasons on defense and special teams. He had his best year with 57 tackles, four interceptions and 12 passes broken up last season. The junior also averaged 22.7 yards per kick return and 14.1 yards per punt return.
Poyer had 34 tackles, two interceptions and four passes broken up as a sophomore in 2010. He averaged 27 yards per kick return and 9.5 yards per punt return.
Poyer has steadily improved his coverage as a cornerback and could rise up higher with a strong 2012 season. He is a good athlete and played some baseball for the Beavers before deciding to focus on football. Poyer is a talented prospect with upside

1 pound
skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch cubes
1 tablespoon
dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon
all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons
cooking oil
2 tablespoons
green curry paste
green onions with tops, chopped
3 cloves
garlic, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon
fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
2 cups
coconut milk
1 tablespoon
fish sauce
2 tablespoons
white sugar
1/2 cup
cilantro leaves, for garnish
Yummo! It's a very authentic-tasting Thai curry chicken. Warning: the green curry paste varies A LOT by brand. I used Maesri brand: VERY hot (and we love hot foods). I only used 1.5 tbsp which was plenty. Also, the coconut milk should be a full-fat (not low fat) and also varies quite a bit by brand. I prefer the Chaokoh brand which is nice & thick. Both of these brands should be available at any decent Asian market. A couple of changes I made: 1. used boneless chicken thighs (not as dry as breast meat), 2. reduced sugar to 1 tsp. I also added carrots, onions, and peas (gotta sneak those vegies ;) This one's a keeper.
Save your time to measure curry paste and coconut milk, use 1 can (4 oz) of Maesri green curry paste and 1 can (14 fl oz) of coconut milk for cooking will have a good result. If coconut milk is too strong for you, reduce the amount or add some chicken stock.
All you need is to stir-fry your favorite vegetables in sequence depending on the cooking time. In my case, onions and carrots first, followed by fried tofu curds. Then I add some curry paste and coconut milk before adding tomatoes, green beans, and broccoli stems. Add the remaining of curry paste and coconut milk and let the sauce simmer until green beans are cooked to your liking. At the end, add zucchinis and broccoli florets a few minutes before you put the lid on and turn the heat off.
Meat is almost unnecessary in this dish. If you like chicken, cut it in thin slices and marinate in some cooking oil and green curry paste. To ensure that chicken is tender and cooked thoroughly, stir-fry chicken as soon as vegetables are done. In a separated pan that is big enough for all ingredients, add some oil before adding chicken. Constantly stir chicken until only some pinkness shows. Add steamy-hot cooked vegetables in and mix all ingredients well.
Vegetables recommended for green curry: asparagus, bamboo shoot, bean sprout, broccoli, butternut squash, carrot, green bean, eggplant, mushroom, onion, snow pea, sweet pepper, tofu, tomato, zucchini, and etc.

This turns out well except you have to completely leave out the soy sauce if you expect a greenish curry versus a brown curry. The soy affects both the flavor and the color in a very negative way. Leave out the soy and it turns out very well and is sooooo easy to make.
Alert! I made a veggie version with lots of additions: Just like my fave Thai restaurant! I made a veggie version of this recipe by following it after heating the green curry paste. I used 5 ounces of tofu rubbed with a tiny bit of sesame oil and the teaspoon of ginger the recipe called for. I also added fresh basil, sweet peas, mini-corn, and bamboo strips. I served it over brown basmati rice capped with chopped peanuts, green onion, and cilantro. I will definitely make this again!
Credit to the Chef - this is an execellent receipe. The weights, measures and cooking times are all bang on so really no need to improvise! I've cooked this a few times now and suggest for more bang for buck you add 1 fresh lemon grass stalk (reveal the white stalk center and crush with the flat of a knife)instead of sugar and cut back the coconut milk to 400ml adding 75ml of chicken stock as well. Use boneless chicken thighs instead of breast. All this really intensifies the flavours!!
This was easy for a beginner like me and it came out tasty. However, it did not have enough kick in it, so I would add more curry paste next time. Also, I agree with another reviewer that it was too sweet, so next time I will put in less sugar (I used white sugar). I served this with white rice.
Very tasty! I served it at a book club party and it got great reviews. I doubled the green curry paste as others have suggested (it may depend on the brand you use, so be careful) and I also used cane sugar for a more "natural" flavour. I used less sugar the second time around as I prefer dishes like these slightly less sweet in order to bring out the other flavours. Thanks for a great recipe!
I would give this recipe 10 stars if I could! We have two really good Thai restaurants in our area and this recipe tops any of their green curry dishes. I followed the recipe exactly, used Jasmine rice, it was absolutely perfect. My husband RAVED about it, we brought leftovers for lunch the next day. I think this sauce would also be very good on fish, like tilapia or another mild white fish, maybe even salmon. This was just perfect!

Culture was a Jamaican roots reggae group founded in 1976. Originally they were known as the African Disciples. The members of the trio were Joseph Hill (lead vocals), Albert Walker (backing vocals) and Kenneth Dayes (backing vocals). Shortly after Culture came together, they began working with the "Mighty Two" â[][] producer Joe Gibbs and engineer Errol Thompson. While at Gibbsâ[][] studio, they recorded a series of powerful singles, many of which ended up on their debut album â[][]Two Sevens Clashâ[][]. After their success with Gibbs, the group went on to make a string of albums for producer Sonia Pottinger. Culture began working with some of the premier musicians of the day including Robbie Shakespeare, Sly Dunbar, Ansel Collins, Cedric Brooks and the ever-present percussionist Sticky. Virgin Records picked up the albums, and that added distribution enabled Culture to gain an even larger following outside of Jamaica. Critically considered one of the most authentic traditional reggae acts, at the time of the first Rolling Stone Record Guide publication, they were the only band of any genre whose every recording received a five-star review (of bands with more than one recording in the guide).
