Can a country with a large population find better and more efficient solutions to its problems under Communism?
I am from India, the world's largest democracy. I do believe in democracy but somehow, when it comes to finding solutions to problems, a communist government seems to find effective solutions most of the time.
Is communism a better approach towards problems being faced by a country with a large population or is it something which can cost us our individual rights and liberal thinking in the process of enforcing "good" solutions to solve our problems?
This occurred to me when I took a look at China, which is a major force to reckon with in today's world. It has found solutions to a lot of its problems and has been able to solve them because they were able to enforce those solutions, being communist.

Feb 10 2013: Cannot agree more. Another problem of Indian thinking is to copy and paste western solutions. Or, if not copy-paste, modifying western models and running it assuming that it will produce results.
However, pure Indian thinking and by that I mean conceiving solutions from purely Indian perspective, has been found to work wonderfully. For example the computerized/electronic railway reservation system, including the software that does it, is completely indigenous to India and it is by far the most successful and robust booking system and also the largest in the world.
Indian electioneering (I believe the term was coined in India) is another success. China never had to conduct elections with 500 million voters, collect the ballots and declare results within a week without much of fuss.
I agree with Kate in as much as that it's products stink of sweat shops and the success that China has made is more due to the exemplary industriousness and discipline of Chinese people than due to communism.Mar 6 2013: Agree - If India addresses Corruption issue and minimises the same it would be a great Economy.
Guess in the last 2 yrs - Indian Courts have boldly asked the Govt to Cancel Telecom Licences which involved bribery of millions of $; Sahra Group has also been brought to its senses by courts. In the last two years Business Community (India & International) have understood that as a short term measure they can gain heavily by bribing but over a period of few years they will be caught (even in India).
One of the main reasons for Corruption in India is - Laws & Procedures governing India have been copied from British (about 50 yrs ago) and have not been revised to address the Huge increase in Populations and its needs.

Mar 6 2013: sure not a sound way? but it is so much fun! blame the brits!
(and australians too. australians are brits upside down.)Mar 6 2013: In fact I am blaming Indians for not focusing on revising Indian Laws in tune with changed circumstances.
With a GDP growth rate of 6% India should have been doing well but unfortunately it is dragged down by rapid growth of population 17% per annum (on a base of 1.7 billion).
Hope we find solutions to curtail the population growth rate.Mar 8 2013: Agreed, the problems started a long time ago, but it has caused so many more problems along with it . A change in the Indian mindset is what we really need. Not going to be easy.

You can have a 13 year old girl or boy in your bed in exchange for a bar soap or a shampoo. That is Cuba.
You can read all you want but you need to live it to understand the truth.
I've heard many people saying that India needs a Mao Tse Tung / Mao Zedong. I don't think so.
You are looking for order and progress but you will have to fight against the castas and religions. An impossible task. Sorry.
Mar 7 2013: well, at least he was good at population control. killed somewhere between 30 and 60 million people.Mar 8 2013: As I have said before, there are a number of problems to solve here. Prioritizing itself is confusing pointless. Caste systems and religious conflicts are probably just the tip of the ice-berg. The series of problems could be solved, but it will take a long time.
I agree that somebody like Mao Tse Tung wouldn't work out because it would create more problems than solving them.
Sorry Dorian I disagree with you thinking that our problems are unsolvable, as I said, it will take a long time and a whole lot of optimism and determination but it's not impossible, :)

Mar 6 2013: Hello Dorian,
Can you please elaborate on how your experience residing in the country makes you think that?Mar 7 2013: hello Dorian
this is the simple and tragic example of communication misinterpretation, which in many cases leads to misunderstanding and tension between two parties. this is one of the reasons that conflicts start between friends / couples / strangers / neighbours / communities / nations.
I believe I didn't ask where you have lived and how many times this has happened, as you can say above if you have a good look once more.
allow me to bring your attention back to our communication. you wrote, NO.
I asked "Why not?"
my question started with WHY which seeks reasons and beliefs behind the statement you made.
Would you be so kind to share with us your thoughts and beliefs about this subject (instead of times and places you have lived) now please ?

Feb 13 2013: Im not a believer in communism in a "communist coutry" but i believe when one of the communist leader said,white cat ,black cat .its a good cat as long as it catches rats.( the cats today would be regarded as being "not good"according to him:) I think no ideology is perfect and adoption of any one entails issues(might shown differently) to deal with cuz they all have limitations.its more about the whole process and problem solving instead of deciding which is better cuz once you adopt communism,you got plenty of problems to sovle too. Thats what i think.

And "communist China" didn't found solutions to a lot of its problems, only their leaders think they did found one.Feb 10 2013: I believe that we cant compromise with justice and freedom at the cost of development. People will still remain unhappy in the restricted environment inspite of providing solutions for their problems. When you compare between India and China, China has only 55 ethnic groups among which Han Chinese dominate with 91% share of total population. But in India there are more than 2000 ethnic groups. Clearly the ethnic and cultural diversity is greater in case of India. Hence solutions provided by some communist government in India will be unacceptable to a large section of population most of the times. Democracy is the best way for us, just we need to focus on making it work more efficiently...Feb 10 2013: what do you mean "seems"? we had a lot of communist/socialist countries, and we still have some. they are doing horribly. china does okay, but all of its wealth comes from the limited capitalism they have.Feb 16 2013: thank you for all of your answers, I realize that communism is not a solution to my country's problems, and Kriztian: I agree that China doing well is more of a reference to it's economic scenario rather than it's political scenario. I have read up on how China has so many restrictions on everything and seems to absolutely oppose liberal thinking. It appears as if they want to program their people to think and act in a certain manner.
However I realize that there is more to India's problems than a large population.Feb 16 2013: Amily:The ideology behind democracy is empowering the citizen and allowing liberal thinking, whereas the ideology behind a communist government is to give priority to national welfare over an individual's welfare. But you have a very valid point on how each ideology has it's own problems. Taking the majority of the population of India into account, out of which most of them are uneducated and underpriveleged, the political class is able to manipulate and use these vulnerable people for their own benefit.
I am a strong believer in democracy, but I think a solution or rather a series of solutions which can make a difference, making sure they are more beneficial and effective is absolutely crucial. However I am extremely confused about where to start looking for solutions and which problem to solve first.Feb 16 2013: Kate: I agree that one must sacrifice their individual human rights for a communist government. And yes I am aware of how China has been treating it's citizens and how it still has press restrictions. I do see how getting rid of corruption is imperative for the smooth functioning of the government. But the government is corrupt at every level possible and there is a vicious cycle of corruption now. In order to remove corrupt practices from our system, the way India thinks and acts must change, which can take a rather long time. Right now there is almost no reason for being a clean honest person other than having a clear conscience and having a good set of morals. People have no reason to stop being corrupt. But to effectively remove corruption from our systems quickly enough, we need something to push us to do it, where we have no choice. But to establish such a mechanism is close to impossible and illogical. It is not the large population that scares me, it is the majority of that population which the political class is able to control by giving them free things, etc. Can you think of any effective mechanism which would help?

Mar 6 2013: I agree, our country has all the means through which we can solve our problems, it's the attitude of the people that bothers me more. Bribing is so common here, that if you don't bribe somebody to get your job done, they'll look at you like your crazy. They don't seem to care about what that small 200 rupee bribe can lead to.
On the brighter side, my generation is finally realizing what's happening around us. It was only the idea of complete control which communism offered which seemed like the only quick solution to me. But now I realize that there is no quick solution. I was angry at the way people misuse their freedom and I thought snatching away their rights would do better since they clearly can't use their freedom in the right way. But I see now that our system is not at fault, it's the people who are in it that are at fault. And I also think that it's not possible for China to conquer us. We have way too much freedom to allow somebody to take them away.
Thanks for your contribution! :)

'The Official Heavy Metal Book of Lists' Was Inspired by PMRC
"I came up with most of the lists in bars, to tell you the truth," Eric Danville, author of 'The Official Heavy Metal Book of Lists: The Heaviest Book of All Time' told Noisecreep about his aforementioned book, which includes lists like '108 Sub-Genres' or 'Bands With the Words Dead/Dying' in their names!
"Seriously, when I was asked to do the book, the first thing I thought of was the Parents' Music Resource Center hearings in the '80s, when Tipper Gore and Susan Baker got their Senator husbands to propose a ratings system for offensive albums and presented it as a consumer rights issue," Danville said. While Gore and Baker were trying to dissuade people from certain bands, music and songs, it was people like

Users of the Internet going up?
Thought this was interesting.
" Eric Schmidt has boldly predicted that everyone in the world will be online by 2020...
Internet users are growing in Africa and Latin America at a fast pace with support from the local governments. Already in Colombia Internet Penetration in the larger cities (over 200,000 population) has reached 80%. Internet World Stats data shows 34.3% penetration worldwide for mid-year 2012. For mid-year 2020, we predict Internet world penetration will be in the range of 70-80%."
If there are only 2 billion-ish users of the internet presently, what impact, if any, will an additional 3-5 billion people have on the independent market economy?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
If the projections are correct that means Internet users will double from present levels over the next 7 years.
That translates to everything that's going on now only twice as much. A far wider audience for content, far larger fan base for crowdfunding, many more people all over the world especially in developing countries who'll be available to participate and experience in all that the Web has to offer. Far more creative productivity, more sharing, more to celebrate!
This is what's happening and what we can expect in the near term future. Position ourselves in the present for great upcoming opportunities to communicate in an expanding medium.
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
Could there be any negative side effects?
Will 1 million views on youtube, still carry the same value?
With that many more humans in the mix, can the number of content providers grow to a point where one can get lost in the masses again?
How many humans can run crowd source strategies til the well dries out, or will the well not change?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
The demand has always outweighed the supply. Problems happens through monopolies and bottlenecking of production and distribution.
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
"The demand has always outweighed the supply. Problems happens through monopolies and bottlenecking of production and distribution."
So then the rapid growth in a few years that doubles the online populace should have no negative impact?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
What's the downside Marius?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
Why would a larger audience have negative impact on creators?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
I have no idea what the downside is. I just heard this fact today. Best case scenerio, if we all stay on track we should be fine. So I think on worse case scenerios. Worse case scenerio is the cycle repeats. With many voices it's easy to be drowned out, and a megaphone is needed to be heard. Studio systems were the old megaphone. I can't imagine they won't update their working model by then, and swoop back in... and business goes back to normal, til the next breakthrough... just a thought, and not meant to start trouble. IF, and I am again emphasising IF that happens... wouldn't it be prudent, to have a plan for it happening... is all
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
and is that even likely to happen?
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
Look at it this way. The positives that comes from the Internet will double. The negatives that comes from the Internet will double. It will be what we each make of it. Whatever happens I hope it will continue to be a free flowing source of communication between human beings for the greater good of mankind.
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
I too hope that. I just also see the patterns. In the beginning it started with a few people. They got together and it became a bigger thing. It got bigger and it required more people to manage the thing. The people managing the thing overpowered the thing, and then the internet boom happened. Joe cartoon, Mondo Media, and a few others found success that they could ride with that boom. There were MANY other content providers during that time, but they couldn't catch that wave for whatever reasons. The cycle is on us again, and many will catch the wave... what happens after is the mystery. Things won't change without US fundamentally changing our behaviours and expectation. Without addressing the long running systems that in all likelyhood will continue running nothing can really change for the industry. But that said, everything can still change for the individuals in they system presently. I WANT everyone's personal success to happen but I WANT the industry's healthy success more. Here is where we fundamentally part paths. I believe getting independent freedom from a structure is a beautiful thing. I think not using that freedom to implement healthy change in the structure is a mistake. And I think downplaying planning on it, is not a prudent thing. But what do I know. I'm with you guys in spirit all the way to where artists have the freedom to choose their destinies. I'm ALL for that movement in all it's ways.
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
There's a fellow who lives in Burbank and goes by Egoraptor. He makes offbeat animated films that are quirky and different. He's developed a massive following on YouTube.
As of this writing he has 982,834 subscribers and his videos have had 160,526,601 views.
Here's his latest. It's had 2,701,604 views in just 1 week. That's comparable to and even exceeds the viewership that network TV cartoons get.
Egoraptor has become a YouTube star. He's super popular and has a massive following and fan base. Yet most people in the animation biz have never heard of him.
Check out his YouTube channel...
Think about what will happen when he takes a project to Kickstarter.
I haven't met the guy but I know people that have. From what they tell me the last thing he's interested in is getting a job in a studio. He wants to remain fully independent.
This is yet another example of how animation artists are able to find fulfillment and success outside of the industry proper.
The status quo studio based industry as we have known it is not as big of a deal as it used to be. With the anticipated growth of the Internet over the next few years artists like Egoraptor will be able to find even more opportunities to develop their fan base, audiences, markets, and their art.
The Internet has been and continues to be a catalyst for amazing things. Imagine what the animation industry would be like today without it.
Re: Users of the Internet going up?
I'm familiar with his work. He'd be one of those exceptions. My point is the industry as a whole. Individually we can spend all day touting singular success stories. I'm not interested in the individual's success. I'm interested in the success of the industry, which takes a LOT of successful individuals to bring about.
"I haven't met the guy but I know people that have. From what they tell me the last thing he's interested in is getting a job in a studio. He wants to remain fully independent."
And that's his FAIR place to be, for he came up independently. Those of us that USED the system to rise ourselves, we OWE it to that system to raise it with us. Or not. It's up to the artists. Care about yourself, or care about the society you are in. It affects me not one way or another. You seem to think I'm saying DON'T do what egoraptor is doing. I'm not saying that at all. I'm saying don't neglect the system you used to propel yourself forward. If that particular artist had 0 involvement in the traditional studio systems, it would not make sense to expect him to care. What about those that did? Is it ok to watch people take, use, abuse, and neglect that resource while they chase their own personal ambitions? Apparently, the mass opinion is that's ok behavior, cause they do it to you. That's not what was meant by "do unto others as you would have done unto you"... least in my head.

Jennifer Richmond got a very special gift for her birthday 11 years ago. That day, she visited the ASPCA Adoption Center and adopted "the love of her life," a special kitty named Nicholas.
"He was a small, shy, black-and-white, six-month-old kitten," Jennifer recalls. "He has grown into the most lovable and sweetest lap cat you will ever meet."
The two formed a lasting bond that is still going strong today.
"At 11 years old he still has energy to play, calls for treats and purrs so loud it makes you laugh," Jennifer says.
A few years ago, Jennifer decided it was time for Nicholas to have a feline friend. She visited the ASPCA Adoption Center once again to look for a cat who would be the perfect buddy for Nicholas. Her search was successful—she found Joey, a "rambunctious, gray, three-month-old kitten with more energy than you can imagine."
"I wasn't sure how all this energy would work with an older cat, but within days they were fast friends," Jennifer remembers. "They love each other."
It's safe to say Nicholas and Joey are two very lucky cats.
"I can't imagine life without either of them," Jennifer says. "I am greeted at the door when I get home, and they cuddle during TV time and find their place on the bed when we go to sleep. I can't thank the ASPCA enough for rescuing them. You have helped create our special family."

Santa Clara Municipal Electric Utility Cited for Price/Value,
Trust, Customer Communications
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – April 10, 2013 - A survey of residential utility customers has ranked Silicon Valley Power (SVP), the City of Santa Clara's electric utility, among the top municipal utilities in California for customer satisfaction. The survey of 13 municipal utilities, conducted by RKS Research of New York for the California Municipal Utilities Association and Northern California Power Association, found that SVP strongly bucked a national trend by improving satisfaction rankings over the past two years.
Only the City of Alameda's municipal electric utility ranked higher than SVP, which tied with Sacramento Municipal Utility District and City of Palo Alto Utilities for second. SVP scored a "very satisfied" average of 8.7 on a scale of 1 to 10, up from 8.3 in April 2011, with 83 percent of customers surveyed saying they are very satisfied with SVP. Statewide, an average of 64-66 percent of customers are satisfied with their electric utility provider.
"These are really high scores for SVP," said David Reichman, RKS Research CEO. "The important thing is that SVP's high scores are balanced, and across all dimensions - from price and value to overall trust and various performance dimensions. Most utilities do not see this balance reflected in high scores across all of their dimensions."
"These results reflect very favorably on the entire SVP team, from the employees in the field taking care of customers face-to-face to our managers and elected officials who make reliability and price of electricity a priority in Santa Clara," said Larry Owens, SVP Manager of Customer Service. "Customers trust that SVP will always consider what's best for the public interest when crafting policy or making decisions concerning our electricity infrastructure, energy resources, and pricing."
Residential and business customer satisfaction nationwide has declined for electric utilities the past two years, according to the global marketing services company J.D. Power and Associates (jdpower.com).
Customer ratings of SVP also improved in categories such as value/trust, environmental advocacy, and communications with residents, but the survey indicated that consumers would like enhanced digital contact with SVP as well as more information on energy efficiency and cost-saving measures.
"We are looking into the optimum ways to communicate with customers, whether it's via their mobile devices, our website or traditional mail and telephone," said Owens, who added that SVP is interactive with customers through social media such as Facebook and Twitter. "A released Mylar balloon tangled in the wires and knocked out power to a neighborhood for an hour last month. Location and restoration information were available in a matter of minutes via Twitter and our website. Now customers aren't completely in the dark when the power is out."
About Silicon Valley Power
Silicon Valley Power (siliconvalleypower.com) is the trademark adopted for use by the not-for-profit electric municipal utility of Santa Clara, CA serving residents and businesses for over 100 years. SVP provides power to more than 50,000 customers, including Applied Materials, Intel, Owens Corning and Yahoo!, at rates 15 to 45 percent below neighboring communities.

Before there was Col. Zadok Magruder High School's boys basketball team, there was Springbrook. It's doubtful many Montgomery County fans have forgotten the Blue Devils, winners of three straight state championships from 2008 through 2010. Still, that won't stop The Brook from feeling overlooked with all the praise the Colonels are receiving for their 2012 4A state championship and a victory this week against DeMatha.
"They're definitely overlooking us," junior guard Andrew Robinson said following Springbrook's 75-41 victory against Northwest in its season opener. "We're a sleeper team that will come out and surprise a lot of people."
Robinson scored 25 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in leading the Blue Devils (1-0) past Northwest (0-1). The 6-foot-5 shooting guard connected on 10 of 15 shots, including five of eight from the 3-point line.
"He's been in our program, this is his third year," Springbrook coach Tom Crowell said. "He's been a backup for a year and half, he paid his dues. This summer he really blossomed. Right now, it looks like he's going to be OK."
Circle the date: 7 p.m. Dec. 19, Magruder at Springbrook.
"We're looking forward to that one, man," Robinson said. "To me, it's the biggest game of the season if we can knock off the state champs."
Crowell said if his team is going to have a chance against Magruder, it will be because of their defense.
"I'm very happy with the defense. Like [Magruder coach] Danny [Harwood] says, he stresses the 3, we stress the defense," Crowell said. "We changed things up tonight. We played a little zone ... I don't think we've played zone in seven years."
The defense was the key to the victory against Northwest on Thursday. The Jaguars game plan was to be patient on offense, wait for a Springbrook defensive mistake, then exploit it. The last thing Jaguars coach Usman Jamil said he wanted was for his team to get into a transition game against the Blue Devils.
The one problem with that plan was Springbrook's defense, which had 13 steals and forced numerous turnovers.
"The boys are working hard every day," Jamil said. "I told Tom [Crowell] he's got all the pieces, I've got young pieces. I have five sophomores and only one returning starter. They're learning, and their attitude has been great."
Elliot Gambrel, the one returning Jaguar starter, led his team with 8 points. Tomazye Anderson, Springbrook's only returning starter added 13 and Bowie High transfer Jarod Mustaf had 10 for the Blue Devils.
"First game, that's not bad, I'll take that," Crowell said. "We got to develop our bench a little better. Our starting five are pretty good, and if we get the substitution worked out, I think we'll be able to compete."
Springbrook 75, Northwest 41
Northwest 14 9 9 9—41
Springbrook 25 22 16 12—75
Northwest (0-1, 0-0): Elliot Gambrel 8, Rodney Snider 7, Connor Allen 7, Austin Castleberry 5, Jamar Wilson 4, Tivon Lake 4, Brandon Williams 4, Xavier Bradley 2.

So one of the biggest homers on this site, even though he won't admit it, gave me the idea for this. Sense he LOVES calling out all the Dolphins Homers (he even posted a regular Homer version once) all the time I figured I would whip up a Homer sporting a Jet's shirt. But in all fairness I went ahead and made the whole AFC east. That way they can be used all over the site. I made them all with transparent backgrounds, so if you care to save them and upload them to you computer for use on other website, please feel free to do so. There is a link attached to each picture.
But seeing as how the Jets are our biggest rivals lately, the ones we all love to ***** about, I also animated the Jets version. Enjoy!!!

Interpretive Handbook
87266 :
Viral Culture, Non-Respiratory
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Viruses are responsible for a broad spectrum of clinical symptoms and diseases. The most commonly isolated viruses are adenovirus, cytomegalovirus, enteroviruses, herpes simplex virus, and varicella-zoster virus.
Many viral infections can now be treated with antiviral drugs. Early laboratory diagnosis by isolation is very helpful in the medical management of these patients.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosing viral infections
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A positive result indicates that virus was present in the specimen submitted. Clinical correlation is necessary to determine the significance of this finding.
Negative results may be seen in a number of situations including absence of viral disease, inability of the virus to grow in culture (examples of organisms not detected by this culture test include Epstein-Barr virus, rubella virus, papilloma, and Norwalk virus), and nonviable organisms submitted.
For patients with diarrhea, see Parasitic Investigation of Stool Specimens Algorithm in Special Instructions for other diagnostic tests that may be useful.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Viral isolation and detection depends on the proper collection and transport of the specimen.
This test is not useful for viruses (not listed above) that cannot be grown in cell culture (see Interpretation).
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
If positive, virus is identified.
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

This is an awesome article about the man Junior Seau done by award winning author Jill Lieber Steeg. It took her 5 1/2 months to write. She has worked at SI/USA Today. This may take 45 minutes to read but is one of the best and saddest articles you will read. May each of us take something from the article. My wife and I used drive by Junior's house all the time.
May Junior "June" rest in peace.

Mark finished third in today's German Grand Prix, his third successive podium at the spectacular Nurburgring which hosts the event every second year, alternating with Hockenheim. Surprisingly, given the atrocious weather conditions early on race day, the 60-lap grand prix was dry throughout and F1 fans were treated to a thrilling race-long battle between Mark, Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.
"It must have been a good race for people watching at home," says Mark, "but I've come away with mixed emotions. Third is a decent result, but I'm a bit disappointed. I'd hoped for more after starting from pole position and I gave it everything I could, but it wasn't enough. We weren't quick enough today."
Hamilton beat Mark away from pole position, but he didn't pull a gap and they had a thrilling scrap during the opening stint. On a couple of occasions Mark nearly found a way through.
"My start wasn't too bad, but Lewis got a cracker," says Mark. "He was leading before the braking zone for Turn 1, so there was nothing I could do to defend my position. I'd have liked to convert pole, but pole doesn't mean as much this year as in the past. Fernando was third into Turn 1 at Silverstone and Jenson was 18th at the end of lap one in Canada, and they went on to win those races."
Mark undercut Hamilton at the first of his three pit-stops to re-take the lead, but the pace of the top three cars was very similar and it was difficult for him to pull a gap.
"When I got into the lead I thought it was my chance to pull a gap," says Mark. "In my efforts to do that, I used the tyres a bit too much and that hurt me at the end of the stint. My second pitstop was nearly a second slower than my first as well, and when you add those factors together I lost the lead to Lewis again."
With the option tyre about 1.5s per lap faster than the prime, the drivers switched to the prime rubber as late as possible. Mark made his change on lap 56 of 60, by which time Hamilton had the race won. Mark crossed the line 9.7s behind the race winner.
"McLaren and Ferrari weren't hanging around here," says Mark. "They've made progress and we know what we've got to improve on. Now the focus switches immediately to next weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix."

Troopers in the Pendleton District are reporting numerous slide offs on I-70 from the 135 mile marker to the 153 mile maker. While the roadway looks clear, it actually has a thin layer of ice that makes driving conditions treacherous. I-69 in northern Delaware County has also experienced a growing number of slide offs due to icy conditions.
First Sergeant Tim Kaiser of the Pendleton Post would like to remind the public, "Just because the road looks clear or the sun is shining, doesn't mean driving conditions aren't treacherous. Remember, salt and sand doesn't work in these windy sub-zero conditions. Please slow down and increase your following distance as roadways in the Pendleton District remain ice covered and slick."

Sebastian Vettel's chances in Spain were dealt another blow on Saturday evening when it emerged his RB10 needed a new gearbox.
Missing track time on Friday with an electrical problem, the German's car broke down on his out-lap in Saturday's Q3 for the Spanish Grand Prix.
That meant Vettel qualified in 10th place for the race.
However, Red Bull later revealed that the breakdown, which was caused by a lack of drive, meant a new gearbox for the reigning Champion's RB10.
As such, Vettel incurred an automatic five-place grid penalty and will start Sunday's 66-lap race from 15th place on the grid.

I have complete the Horseshoe Cap design by Janet Wray with the fibre I received at the Guilds Christmas Gift Exchange. If you are interested there is more on this at my blog. http://linens2lace.blogspot.com/2012/01/knitting-patterns-charts-vs-written.html
Happy New Year, everyone! I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday!
Dear fellow knitters,
Happy new year to you all from London.
It seems that Quinton has done better than me on the knitted gift front - my Dad'd jumper never even made it onto the needles, let alone off. Although I did finish a felted reindeer table mat (!!!!!) and a cable hat...
I do. Last year for my birthday the kids bought me a spinning wheel. And a lovely wheel it is, despite it's layer of dust. So, this year, I resolve to pull the spinning wheel back out, dusting her off and learning more about spinning. Someday I hope to have an addiciton to my own hand spun and died yarns in addition to all the other stuff I tend to buy.

Wheat flour-3/4 cup
Ragi-1/2 cup
Sweet potato -1
Turmeric powder-1tsp
Red chilly powder-1tsp
Salt to taste
Oil for deep frying.
Peel and boil the sweet potato and mash it well maybe in a blender so that there will be no lumps. Now combine the flours and spices along with salt and the pureed sweet potato and knead it to firm and smooth dough. You may need to add some water while kneading but take care the dough does not become too loose. Use some oil in the end so the dough is non sticky.
Now make small balls with the dough. Roll each ball into a small thin circle. Heat oil in a pan. When the oil is really hot, gently put the rolled circle in the hot oil. Allow it to cook on both sides. Remove from oil and place it on tissue paper so that the excess oil in absorbed.
Serve hot with chole and pickle.

Bucs make history in Atlantic Sun All-Sports Races; Win fifth straight Bill Bibb Trophy
Monday, April 25, 2011
ETSU wins sixth Jesse C. Fletcher men's trophy in a row
MACON, Ga. (April 25, 2011) -With six top-five finishes in the Atlantic Sun Conference Spring Championship season, ETSU clinched its fifth-straight Bill Bibb Trophy announced the conference office on Monday.
The Buccaneers earned conference titles in men's and women's tennis and finished strong with top-five finishes in both golf and track & field championships to push their 2010-11 points total to 328.5. UNF with 285 points leads Kennesaw State (271.5), Campbell (255) and Jacksonville (226.5) in the battle to finish in second place with two championships (softball & baseball) remaining.
The Bucs also sealed the men's all-sports race for the Jesse C. Fletcher trophy amassing 166.5 points with two conference titles. Campbell, Kennesaw State and UNF fall in line behind ETSU in a battle for runner-up with the Camels leading the way with 126, while the Owls and Ospreys sit at 124.5. The final baseball standings account for the last opportunity for points.
ETSU has won the Jesse C. Fletcher trophy six seasons in a row after joining the conference in 2005. The Buccaneers' six-year streak surpasses former member, Georgia Southern (1987-91), for the longest streak in conference history. The six Fletcher trophies ties ETSU with UCF for second most all-time and puts them one behind Georgia Southern for the league record.
On the women's side, Jacksonville's two conference championships in track & field this year secured the Sherman Day Trophy for the Dolphins as their softball team can finish no worse than a tie for second place. Jacksonville's 165-point total became inflated in the spring season when the Dolphins won the track & field competition and finished sixth and seventh in tennis and golf, respectively.
ETSU and UNF currently claim second and third place at 162 and 160.5 points with only softball remaining, while Kennesaw State (147), Campbell (129) and FGCU (129) round out the top-five. With the clinched title, Jacksonville earned their third Sherman Day Trophy in the past four seasons after finishing as the runner-up to the Owls last year. The Dolphins join FIU for third-most Day Trophies behind Georgia State (8) and UCF (7).
FGCU, ETSU and Kennesaw State share the year-long lead for most team championships with three just ahead of Jacksonville and UNF with two.
The Eagles sit in sixth place in the all-sports standings with 208.5 points ahead of Belmont (207), Lipscomb (189), Mercer (184.5), USC Upstate (174) and Stetson (166.5).

Starting to sound like Sanchez apologist. Too early? He turns over the ball too much. I'm calling a spade a spade. He can improve but what I see now is rookie that turns over the ball too much. Don't kill me or insult my intelligence fellow fin fans.
I'm literally appalled by the hate spewed by you guys on here. Mods close this thread before any more vaginas are hurt due to someone expressing their opinion. Get a life.
Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.
Dale Carnegie
Failure is success if we learn from it.
Malcolm Forbes
Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed on an equal or greater benefit.
Napoleon Hill
You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
Johnny Cash
Failure is the key to success; each mistake teaches us something.
Morihei Ueshiba
Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.
Napoleon Hill
No man ever achieved worth-while success who did not, at one time or other, find himself with at least one foot hanging well over the brink of failure.
Napoleon Hill
I could post more, but you all should get the drift. Tannehill will be fine, just give it time.
