I feel it is time to get rid of political parties.
Political Party's are nothing more than vehicles used to hijack what should be the people system of governing. So maybe it is time to start electing independent candidates whom are free of the party shackles.
It is time we elect candidates who will represent the constituencies , not some gang that control a political party to use for "their" benefit. I feel that these independent canditades sign an agreement to work on behalf of the constituency and if the candidate breaks trust , then they can be recalled.
Maybe it is time the voter / taxpayer had control , not these gangs known as political party's.
Mar 22 2013: In the USA we have a "libertarian" party, however, due to libertarians generally being regular people, they do not have the financial backing that the Democrats or the Republicans have... I personally have never been a Democrat or Republican... They are all just one in the same, and there are no lines anymore.
They are all corrupt. It's just so sad. And I think that our founding fathers are turning in their graves right now...
Wayne Coady
Mar 22 2013: Ronney: We have 5 political party's and we know that 4 of the five are all the same. The one party that has never had a strong presents in our Parlianment would be the Green Party. But due to the control political party's have , it would be a safe bet they too would be no different.
- +1
Corruption within our political system runs rife and until we disembowel them...our vote will alway be exploited ...so they can justify their abuse of power. From what I understand about the libertarian party, they would be no different than the other two party's you have...all take direction from big money.
Mar 22 2013: Well said Wayne! Great minds think alike :)
Comment deleted
Mar 19 2013: Political Party's manipulate and control the candidate. We know full well that if the candidate belongs to the party and if they do not tow party line they are out. Ministers and opposition critics here in Canada get all the talking time when on the floor of the House of Commons...all the other elected members get to sit on their hand in the backbenches, you know they become cheerleaders. This holds true in Washington also.
Political parties do hold the upper hand on Ministers / Prime Ministers and presidents. They are nothing more than handmaidens of the Party Elite / big business / big oil.Mar 18 2013: If political parties do not hijack them, some other pressure group will.
Mar 19 2013: Well political parties are in control and they have a choice...either go with good governance or big money and so far they have been going with big money.
Mar 19 2013: This is the same choice an independent candidate faces; and they are most likely to choose big money too.Mar 17 2013: Thank you. In America the parties vary from state to state too. However, I do hope that such a radical solution is not needed, but I don't see bigger countries going out and emulating Canada's Northwest Territories. America was better too when there weren't so many people. There is plenty of reasearch on many things where bigger is not better.
Mar 19 2013: All I can say is political parties are self serving ...they serve big business one good example would be the WallSreet bailout. The Koch Brothers and people like them control and own the Parties. They win ...we lose.
Mar 19 2013: It's not just through political parties that these groups conrol our politics and thoughts. They control the media and many other ways to frame our thoughts. Karl Rove and Frank Luntz aren't business execs or wealthy men. Those are who they work for in their consulting.
Mar 19 2013: I think if you look into Rove and Luntz both are very well associated with big money and the handmaiden for big business. Fox New (right wing money) and so goes he list. I do not know what you call wealthy ...but anyone who holds over a million or two , I would say commands the ear of any political party.Mar 16 2013: I empathize; I've been registered "independent" for all of my voting life. I've no use for either the Democrat or Republican parties of the U.S. In some states, it's hard for an "independent" to get on the ballot, because election laws are made by, surprise! Democrats and Republicans, who aren't about to give up turf to others. (In our recent presidential election, I voted for Paul Johnson, though he's Libertarian, not independent.) I would love, dearly love, to see a strong minded independent with good credentials to run and be elected, if nothing else to prove that it can be done. The parties have such a stranglehold on our systems, though, I doubt it could happen.
Mar 19 2013: I agree it is hard for an independent to run in this "thing" we call a democracy, when the system is controlled by parties , who in turn are owned by big money. Our only hope it to pray that the voter turnout drops well below 50+1%.... lets say 48% , then the system will have failed. Then we can strive to rebuild a true democratic system , not this "myth" we have now.Mar 16 2013: im not to knowledgeable about politics as I should be but I know enough to agree that the 2 parties don't have the 99 percent on there mind. what would be the first step to try and make a change? the first I think would have to be change the laws on "bribeist" I mean lobbyist that would cut off there money flow. any other ideas?Mar 16 2013: Is there any country without political parties? I don't think there is except the Vatican.
Wayne Coady
Mar 16 2013: Yes there is. If you look up the government of the North West Territories, you will see that they have no political party's. And it works quite well. It a consensus style government, bottom up. I might suggest that this could be used as a template to build a even better system.
- +1
You might look at:
And right within the USA there are states that are governed without party oversight.Mar 16 2013: I believe that political parties are somewhat inevitable.
We can get rid for now, but people will always gain a following that will lead to a support structure/ shared ideology (for example, independents are now forming unofficial parties for this very reason).
Whats more important is to create a variety of parties that allow for more variation, get money out of election campaigns and focus on trying to remove the two-party hold that most countries have at present.
The two main parties clearly don't have our interests or represent anyone besides the wealthy and old white males, we need to diversify the platform so people can once again see candidates who actually want to fix the issues.Mar 15 2013: this is an old idea even George Washington warned against political parties he said it would divide the country and he was Right! yes we should get rid of the parties but i believe that isn't possible at the moment we would have to create a sect of the government that would have possible candidates go through equal and balanced questions instead of having candidates spend millions to billions just to get elected just to increase their parties sizeMar 15 2013: The two-party political system is an unintended side effect of the First Past the Post voting system most of us use. A change to the Preferential voting system would solve this, as well as other problems caused by FPTP (gerrymandering in particular).
Mar 16 2013: As long as a party is in control of our system , we will never get rid of the corruption. Political Party's are nothing more than legalized gangs. This is why many citizens are turning away from the ballot box, these days. I cannot bring myself to support a political system that is rife in corruption and uses the very system to abuse the citizens who voted for them.
I think that the fewer people who show up at election time the faster this present corrupt system will fall. If democracy is based on the 50+1% , then what happens when the number of voter turn out falls below that threashold ? I might suggest once the turnout drops to lets say 49.9 %, the system has failed.Mar 15 2013: Time to take back our political system.
Mar 16 2013: while i understand your perspective and share some of your ideas, political parties have their uses, at least in the American system of governance. if every citizen was interested in politics and took the time to examine each candidates political stances, a system independent to parties would be viable. but as things stand, political paries allow voters to immediately identify candidates representative of their views. This is especially important when voting of multiple levels of government, like mayors, governors, senators and congressmen.

Forgive me if I'm stressing this too much, but I believe that one of the primary goals of this project should be to encourage and facilitate a community by creating a game that is easy to create/mod content, easy to upload and download player created content (so you can share with your friends) and perhaps even has some sort of central repository where players can browse, submit, download, and rank the player created content.
With that in mind, what are some types of games that lend themselves well to a community like that?
With TD games you could have player made maps, perhaps even customized campaigns and challenges (e.g. "survive 50 waves with only 5,000 resources," or "Only use gatling gun turret," etc.)
With puzzle games players could create lots of different puzzles. Depending on what kind of puzzle game and the main gameplay mechanic behind it, there could be room for lots of variation (again, think of ChuChu Rocketw (or RUSH), The Incredible Machinew, Portal, box-pusher gamesw, Lemmingsw)
It could be a relatively simple platformer game (Super Mario Bros.w or Within a Deep Forestw) with a level editor. Again, you could have players created individual levels, entire customized campaigns (a series of levels) or challenge courses.
It could be more of an adventure style game (like the old-school Zelda games) with customizable world maps and dungeons. We could (eventually) have a huge DC world where everyone gets to contribute a section of it and a dungeon or two. That would be fun, but probably pretty large in scope.
Could have a Worms-alike, but I don't think there's a whole lot of player-created goodness involved. You could make your own stages, but personally I don't see much value in human made stages over ones that are randomly generated.
It could be a (Mode 7w style) racing game (e.g. Super Mario Kartw) with customizable tracks and circuits, perhaps even customizable battle arenas as well.
As I mentioned before, it could be some sort of sim where you can build a city or whatever and share or visit other player's creations.
Arcade-style games (Pac-Man, Bomberman, Mario Bros.w) with customizable arenas. Though these arenas would run out of variety pretty quick, it seems.
Well, that's about all I can think of for now. . . (and most of that didn't even touch on multiplayer).
But anyway, the point is, in order to facilitate a community around the game and project, we'd have to make sure there were easy to use, intuitive tools to create the content with. That means we'd either have to create such tools ourselves or find them already made. The good news is that having such tools will make it easier for us to create the "main" content for the game as well.
Also, once we have an idea what kind of game we want to make, then we can start focusing on what engine to use, as then we will be able to select the one that fits our requirements the best.

We have a 1991 Sync 250 SN KB 0429xx that only works with the remote switch set to remote and using the foot pedal, not when set to panel position, trying to arc weld with it.
Im going to order a new remote-panel switch S3 ( part # 052769 ) right ? and replace that and I wonder if there is also a relay that may be a cause that I should have on hand just in case while I have it opened up?
Have fingers crossed that its not the PC board. Thanks, Dave

Hi davo727,
Couple things to try.
1.) Disconnect the pedal from the machine completely.
2.) Make sure unit is set to...
Amperage control --> panel
Output/contactor --> On
High Frequency --> off
Current selector--> pointing to the right/ DCEP
Arc Control --> Try both positions
3.) With the power turned off and your stick leads disconnected, check them for continuity. Put an ohm meter between the electrode holder and the lug that goes onto the machine. Cable should be continuous.
Does the machine work 100% in tig mode, on both A/C and DCEN polarity?
Best of luck. The older syncrowave 250's are great machines.
P.S. You should be able to check that switch with a meter, no need to throw away a good part.

Parting Shot: This Fake 'Man Of Steel' Ad Needs To Be Real
At Comic-Con in 2008, I stepped onto a hotel elevator and instantly found myself in the sky. At least, it felt that way. It was actually a very creative ad for Pixar's Up that involved painting the inside of the elevator to look like the sky from the film, with Carl's balloon-powered flying house in the corner, looking to be off in the distance.

Recipe by Chef John
"These quick and easy pan-fried chicken breasts are topped with a simple pan sauce made with capers, butter, white wine, and lemon juice."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
cayenne pepper, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
all-purpose flour for dredging
2 tablespoons
olive oil
1 tablespoon
capers, drained
1/2 cup
white wine
1/4 cup
fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup
3 tablespoons
cold unsalted butter, cut in 1/4-inch slices
2 tablespoons
fresh Italian parsley, chopped
I've made this dish twice now and it is one of my favorites! The only changes I made were to add fresh garlic right after the capers and I used chicken stock instead of water. I love capers so I may have added more :) It is a quick, but quite gourmet week night dinner. Even the kids loved it. I did run into a problem when we discovered there was none left though!
I followed the recipe, but want do it again. Way too lemony, no depth of flavor. Sauce didn't thicken, had to add flour. Waste of time.

I used Wondra to dredge the chicken instead of a-p flour (it's finer and less clumpy), then followed all the ingredients but changed the proportions because I used a lot more chicken than this (when I cook I cook big). It's forgiving-but careful about too many capers and and barely salt the chicken because the capers make everything super salty. I added extra olive oil and butter to the saucepan and added ground garlic and a few flakes of red pepper to simmer awhile. Didn't have fresh parsley so I used dried. I served this over penne since I didn't have linquine or spaghetti. While the pasta drained, I added about 1/3 cup of olive oil to the pasta pot, a half a stick of butter, more garlic granules and about a cup of chicken broth--heated to boiling and tossed the cooked pasta back into it. Put in serving dish, then placed the chicken and all the sauce from the pan over the pasta and topped the pasta and chicken with some grated parmesan cheese. I have never made a piccata I liked as much as this one and my husband and I inhaled it. YUM.
Easy & super yummy! I added a little bit of Panko breadcrumbs to the flour to give it some crunch, and because I'm counting calories & fat, used less EVOO to brown the chicken in the pan and finished it off by baking in the oven after spraying the chicken with some olive oil Pam. (I wanted to have some flavor from the chicken in the pan before de-glazing & making the sauce!) Also used Smart Balance Spread instead of butter. My wine was a light and fruity Pinot. This was outstanding on whole wheat angel hair pasta and despite taking some healthy shortcuts, tasted like I was cheating on my healthy eating plan! Thanks for sharing! :-)
Simple and tasty! I followed the recipe as is and used a sauvignon blanc/chardonnay that I had on hand and it was delicious. If you are not as fond of lemon then cut back a bit on the lemon juice but I love it so I used the exact measurements. This will be one of my go to recipes in the future. It is great with any pasta.
I found this recipe on the front page today when I was completely at a loss for what to make for supper. I had chicken defrosting at home, so I started the video showing the preparation. It looked so easy, so I decided to give it a go.
Wow, we were surprised. From such a simple base, add a rich-seeming sauce and this chicken was delightful. A simple, tart flavour went very well with our rice and steamed vegetables. My wife is counting calories, so she was initially concerned, but we dodged that bullet by drizzling the sauce over the chicken, rather than finishing it in the thickened sauce.
Very pleased with how easy and tasty this recipe was.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was good. The one thing that I didn't like was how tart the sauce was. When I make this again, and I will, I might leave out the lemon juice or at least decrease it. A change that I did make was to season the flour instead of the chicken. The kids enjoyed this dish and soaked up the extra sauce from their plate with good, crusty french bread.
Once again, Chef, a winner recipe here. The proportions are just perfect for us! Yum! We used this with one packet of Costco's boneless skinless breasts, and because it's just the two of us, we'll have enough left for a delicious sandwich tomorrow. Thank you ever so much! Love this stuff! No changes!

Welcome to Pacers Digest! New around here? Here are three tips for making the forum a great place to talk about Pacers basketball.
- Log in. Even if you want to read instead of post, it's helpful because it lets you:

There used to be fistfights at my family reunions over intense badminton games. I wish I was joking.
We had a real "welcome to Chicago" moment years ago when my wife met someone who has become one of her best friends and the answer to, "What do you do" was, "I'm the badminton coach at York." When my wife told me this story, my response was "Badminton? You sure she didn't say 'tennis'? Who plays badminton? That's a varsity sport?" Turns out she played at Arizona State. These people do really exist.
Why do the things that we treasure most, slip away in time
Till to the music we grow deaf, to God's beauty blind
Why do the things that connect us slowly pull us apart?
Till we fall away in our own darkness, a stranger to our own hearts
And life itself, rushing over me
Life itself, the wind in black elms,
Life itself in your heart and in your eyes, I can't make it without you
Ha wtf was that. Seriously, no wonder NBC loses money on the Olympics.
Badminton is awesome. I played it all the time while growing up and we would play in gym class. My friend and I dominated that, except when we had to face the teacher. He was incredibly good. He would beat us 2 on 1.
Anthem, you owe me 3 minutes and 47 seconds of my life that I just wasted watching Mary Carillo talk about Badminton that was pretty much filler time for the 2004 Olympics that probably aired at 3am in the morning when no one was watching.
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
Yeah, that's definitely filler that probably aired at 2 or 3 am. Badminton is a fun game to play, defintely not that good at it, but it's one of those games you break out at a family reunion or with friends....usually with beer in hand....
I've never liked Mary Carillo's voice either.

My college roommate was Venezualan National badminton champion. He had two national trophies in our dorm room that were taller than me. He also had all the requesite newpaper articles to prove it. I don't know about now but then he said that badminton was as big in SA as bowling was here (remember this was mid-60's and everyone bowled back then). He gave me instruction in power badminton and then we took on the school (intramurals). He of course sailed thru the league unbeaten and we, as a team, destroyed the league in quick fashion. Like power volleyball, power badminton is NOTHING like you play in your backyard.
If you get to thinkin youre a person of some influence, try orderin somebody elses dog around..

Going away to college can be scary, especially if it's your first real foray into working with type 1 diabetes (juvenile diabetes) professionals on your own. Your type 1 diabetes care team is critical to your physical well-being as well as your success in college, so invest time up front in finding good professionals to work with.
When you visit colleges, visit their health centers. Make an appointment to meet with representatives there about type 1 diabetes care. Interview the doctors, nurses, and educators. Your parents will most likely be very helpful to you in completing this process. Don't feel you have to rely on the school health center use them if better health care might be available in the area. You may want to ask your pediatrician for recommendations of endocrinologists in the area.
Discuss health insurance coverage with your parents before you leave home. You should know what your options are, how to handle emergency situations, and what your insurance requires.
More tips for college:
- Request a meeting with your parents and the resident assistant to go over emergency procedures. Offer to give the RA a glucagon kit to use in case you have severe low blood sugar.
- Have a small refrigerator in your room for supplies and snacks. You may want to buy it yourself instead of sharing the expense with a roommate so you won't feel guilty taking up so much of the space. Let friends know that snacks in the refrigerator are necessary for you and ask them not to help themselves without asking first.
- Whatever you take for insulin reactions, have your parents buy it by the case. That way, you won't think twice about sticking a handful into whatever bag or coat you grab.
- When you go to a party, make sure that someone you know will be there – someone who knows you have type 1 diabetes and what to do in case of a reaction.
- If you don't have relatives or friends nearby, have your parents network through their friends to find someone who can act as an emergency contact when needed.
- Make the decision to ALWAYS wear a Medic Alert bracelet. There are many different styles available these days.
- Photocopy insurance and prescription cards, in case your wallet is lost or stolen. Your parents should keep a copy. Keep another in your dorm room.
- Have two blood glucose meters, in case one malfunctions, and extra batteries.
- Make sure you have a safe system for discarding needles and strips.
- Keep a three-month inventory of supplies. Be sure to check periodically and call home before you start to run low. As a safeguard against running out of insulin, make sure your prescriptions are on file at a local pharmacy.
- Thank your roommate ahead of time for providing support. An occasional card or small gift works wonders.

Decent, but not a leader
Pros: Good spin on solid shots
Cons: Driver distance
It definitely did spin, but spin had to be earned. I think that it stopped as quickly as the most spinny mid-priced balls I've used, but only when it was hit solidly. It stopped much less impressively when struck less well. On the one end I had a couple of great full wedge approaches onto very soft greens that rolled out barely an inch. On the other end I had many somewhat decent approach shots onto harder greens that ran 12 feet past the pin. I stopped a 7-iron in 12 feet on a medium-hard green, but had several full wedge shots run out 15 feet on shots that I'm pretty sure would have stopped faster with other balls. (Maybe two-piece balls are harder to spin without solid contact.) I split the difference between these two conditions for my spin rating associated with this review.
I was a little disappointed with distance off the driver. I'm not sure why, but I wasn't getting the same height in the ball's trajectory and I lost some distance off my average driving distance while using this ball. Maybe I wasn't getting sufficient spin or launch angle with it. The rest of my clubs seemed unaffected. (Disclaimer: I know wasn't driving very well around the time I used this ball, so it's possible that my loss of distance was just a swing fault. Didn't seem like it, but it's kind of hard to imagine a two-piece ball not providing suitable distance.)
It definitely feels like a two-piece ball. Not quite as soft as the Bridgestone e5 (another mid-priced two-piece ball), but nothing like a range rock either.
Overall it was a decent ball, but I wasn't thrilled with the performance I experienced with it.

I just discovered this site and am am very happy to find it. I am 70 year old amature blacksmith- weldor with a simple shop but anxious to learn and lots of questions. I greatly enjoy making things of steel at the forge and at the welding table. I have a Millermatic Challenger 230 Volt wire welder and a Johnson automatic darkening mask with #10 lens. I chose the #10 because I was told it would be more safe for my eyes. One of the many things that I read is reference to seeing the molten pool and seeing the weld as it is being made. I have a really hard time with that. I have tried to add ambient light which has been of some help. I think I could make significant improvement in my work if I could better see what was going on. I would greatly appreciate any advice, and look forward to the valuable "welding wisdom" that I find on this site.

Seeking advice on seeing what I am doing.
I am 65 and use a Optrel satillite auto-darkening helmet. I chose it because it has a range of 5-9 & 9-13 and suberb optics. You can use whatever setting your eyes are comfortable with, I use shade #8 for most tig work, 9-10 for most mig work, and 10-11 for stick work, and I can also set it to #5 if I want to use the helmet for plasma cutting. I do wear glasses with verilux lens and need a cheater lens behind the helmet lens, with all the adjustment I have I can easily see anything I need to. Sometimes you might find that you are letting too much light in and won't be able to see well, on the other hand you might be letting too little light in to see well. Welcome, and I hope this helps ...Regards, George

Like George says, the variable shade models only adjust the visible light shade. At all shades, or even when turned off, they still block UV light at a shade 14. My BWE is almost always on shade 9 for most of my work.
My answer would be much the same as Sundown's. I had a hard time seeing the puddle, especially with fairly low amp tig work. The solution for me was the Satellite hood, which I also run at 8 or so for tig and 9-10 for mig. The improvement for me was huge over a darker lense. Mac's comments are correct and important, you aren't sacrificing safety at a lower setting (with these hoods).
The other thing that helps is a cheater lense (magnifier, like reading glasses) that can help the up-close work when welding.
Don't stop experimenting until you can see that puddle well. It will make a huge difference in the ease and quality of your welding.

trouble seeing the puddle
Hi there,
I would agree that a cheater (magnifier) lens may be of help to you, but I would add that at work, I too use an "auto helmet" for most of my jobs (Optrel satelite) but I also keep my very cheap "old faithfull" helmet on hand for work that requires the upmost clarity. I find that the multiple layers of plastic (wich are usually curved and sealed poorly) simply dont provide the quality of vision (especially after long periods of smoke and condensation) as that of the flat glass.......cheap helmet. Go buy one, $20.00 and get a 9, 10 and 11 lens to see what is comfortable for you. I'll bet you've never seen so clearly! Also, in low light conditions whether it be in a silo or your garage, it's so nice to flip up the lens and have a clear view for grinding. Technology is great but sometimes the old stuff is just plain better.

It is a moment that played itself out time-and-time-again for more than a decade - Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field, and the one-and-only Brett Favre has just completed another Touchdown pass! His arm was always strong, and his mind always sharp, but what separated Brett from the rest was his heart. Every defeat weighed heavily, and every victory brought unbridled joy. When the play went into the end zone, his arms always went up in the air, and that irrepressible smile made every fan feel good ole' Packer Pride!
With astonishing career statistics, three MVP awards, a Super Bowl ring, a legacy of good citizenship, and a spot reserved in the Hall of Fame, Favre was an obvious choice as entry #4 in our retro-style poster series. It is the old Sports Illustrated design of the 1970s and '80s, harkening back to a simpler time, when great players like Brett stayed with one team until the end, becoming a timeless hero in the community, and a superstar throughout the nation. As with the great SI posters of the past, this brilliant poster features the consummate photographic image of the player - in this case, the classic Favre post-TD celebration, showing the fans once again that he's not there just for a paycheck, but for the love of the game. With a sharp, simple design and the nostalgic feel of Lambeau on gameday, this is the ultimate Brett Favre poster for your wall! Don't miss your opportunity to own this beauty - published exclusively for SportsPosterWarehouse.com, this item is limited to a single print run of less than 5,000.

North Korea just likes being inflammatory because unpredictability is the only card they can play on the international stage. That, and they've pretty much made China their bitch. Every once in a while they walk up to the line and piss over it because they can. They're pretty much just trolling the whole world, is all.
If anything were to actually happen in that area it'd be because of Japan, not us. The Japanese and Chinese hate each other going back forever and the North Koreans also hate the Japanese. We're pledged to protect Japan because we wrote their constitution after WWII (as in literally like two guys in Washington DC wrote it) which mandates that they only have a scant national defense apparatus -- in exchange for our solemn protection. The aggressive moves of North Korea as well as ever present tension with a stronger and stronger China have threatened that arrangement and now the Japanese they make noises now more than they used to about arming themselves. That could potentially be destabilizing. But basically it just sounds to me like a bunch of rustled jimmies, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing (that was for you, tyler ).
At the end of the day, though, I don't think anything will happen. The Chinese fundamentally don't consider themselves an international power or to have international concerns. They don't care about genocides or oppression or terrorism or about flexing their muscle internationally to further their economic goals (outside of bullying a few African countries that can produce cobalt and other rare Earth metals you need to make electronics).
The Chinese pretty much only care about two things. 1) Maintaining their grip on their own country (ie, putting down unrest domestically as well as opposing rebellion movements abroad that might inspire their own dissidents). And 2) Telling other nations to STFU about Tibet. Both are non-negotiable. As China grows in power and prestige their priorities might start to expand somewhat (in fact, it almost certainly will), but it's still not part of their philosophy as a nation. It's hard to fathom now but China was pretty much closed to the world until the 1970s. That's still not long ago.
In Fareed Zakaria's book The Post American World (I think it was his book, anyway) he traces this back to the differences in religion between the East and West. The West, being largely Christian, sees their role in missionary terms. It's our duty to help people in other countries and to involve ourselves and spread our way of life.
Eastern religions aren't like that. They're more insular and philosophical. There's a great example of this from Chinese history where in the early 15th century they constructed an ocean going fleet larger than all the fleets of Europe combined and explored the South China Sea, India and the east coast of Africa, some 40,000 miles in all. But after the leader of the expedition died the fleet was recalled and burned to the ground. Obviously the Japanese didn't follow this example in WWII, but China still has not made it their business to be much of a leader or aggressor on the world stage in their entire history.
As long as everyone is making money it is fine but at some point that is going to stop and the Chinese are going to call in their margin, when they do the US will have no other choice but to default and a war has a high probability to ensue at that point in time.
"Frank's Redhot - I Put That **** On Everything!" ~ Ethel
As for a global war? No way. As I said, China is not an aggressive colonizing power by personality. They don't even have an ocean going Navy, for chrissake. They're building one, but for now all they have is a defensive force. This is not a country that's going to initiate a global conflict over anything just as they're starting to have real political trouble with their burgeoning middle class and as they've basically exhausted their slave labor reserves.
And a war over debt? What would that even solve? Are they going to conquer us and then break into Fort Knox and get their money? It makes no sense.

LOL...plenty of people thought they had a hand on the Chinese and their actions. If history has proven anything to us, it's that the Chinese government are some queer litlle men (please note the use of the word queer here is as an adjective, in describing their oddity, not in the noun way of saying they suck ****)
The Chinese have very different views about their culture and their place in the world than others do. Never discount them
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life
A further update on this topic:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/...topNews&rpc=69(Reuters) - North Korea conducted its third nuclear test on Tuesday in defiance of U.N. resolutions, drawing condemnation from around the world, including from its only major ally, China, which summoned the North Korean ambassador to protest.
Pyongyang said the test was an act of self-defense against "U.S. hostility" and threatened stronger steps if necessary.
The U.N. Security Council held an emergency meeting at which its members, including China, "strongly condemned" the test and vowed to start work on appropriate measures in response, the president of the council said.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, the third of his line to rule the country, has presided over two long-range rocket launches and a nuclear test during his first year in power, pursuing policies that have propelled his impoverished and malnourished country closer to becoming a nuclear weapons power.
North Korea said the test had "greater explosive force" than those it conducted in 2006 and 2009. Its KCNA news agency said it had used a "miniaturized" and lighter nuclear device, indicating it had again used plutonium, which is suitable for use as a missile warhead.
China, which has shown signs of increasing exasperation with the recent bellicose tone of its reclusive neighbor, summoned the North Korean ambassador in Beijing and protested sternly, the Foreign Ministry said.
Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said China was "strongly dissatisfied and resolutely opposed" to the test and urged North Korea to "stop any rhetoric or acts that could worsen situations and return to the right course of dialogue and consultation as soon as possible".
Analysts said the test was a major embarrassment to China, which is a permanent member of the Security Council and North Korea's sole major economic and diplomatic ally, because it cast doubt on the extent of Beijing's influence over its ally.

Bay Area designer Ali Golden put herself on the local fashion map a few years back with her microclimate-friendly wrap vests — but it's her fall '12 collection that we're really all wrapped up in. This one has us totally spellbound!
The line, ranging from deep royal blue and tangy orange to paprika red, was created with silk and wool fabrics and stitched together entirely in San Francisco. Standing apart from the rad collection is Golden's camel trench, which features deep pockets, easy-to-move-in half-sleeves, and a totally on-trend layered front. "I was trying to set the stage for a line that focuses on simplicity and versatility, but is unique in fit, color, and proportion," explains Golden.
We think she nailed it. Click through the lookbook, styled by Rebecca Calavan and photographed by Anna Elledge, to see all the amaze pieces, (a.k.a everything that's on our "must-have" list), from an all-white, wear-everywhere shirtdress to a super-cute peach number sporting a cutout back, after the jump.

Student Orgs
Student clubs and organizations at Gustavus Adolphus College provide the campus community with activities, programs and resources that enhance the quality of student life. Students who participate in co-curricular activities are more likely to succeed at both personal and professional goals, develop leadership skills, form lasting friendships with peers and learn more about a chosen career field. Gustavus Adolphus College is working to deliver a comprehensive activities program that encourages student participation in clubs and organizations related to both their personal and professional interests. The student organization recognition process serves new and prospective students, College departments and administrators by providing accurate information about those groups.

Inhabitat Reports From the Fortune Brainstorm Green Conference
Some of the greatest minds in green business recently convened in sunny southern California for Fortune's Annual Brainstorm Green Conference. Inhabitat was on the scene to catch compelling talks by an incredible list of speakers including movers and shakers in the top Fortune companies as well as some predominant start-ups, nonprofit, and NGOs. The conference glossed over some of the usual sustainable fanfare, but surprisingly managed to dig a little deeper into today's environmental issues and share some realistic insights. Read on for our full report!
Day 1
The conference opened with a one-on-one between Lee Scott, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors for Wal-Mart Stores and John Huey, Editor-In-Chief of Time Inc. Scott explained that Wal-Mart's approach to sustainability was never altruistic — they have always been in search of better business propositions. It just so happened that doing better business was better for the planet. Although I have my own personal qualms with Wal-Mart, it's hard to believe that more companies have not followed suit, taking-up the green flag in exchange for cost savings.
A panel entitled, What Do Environmentalist Want, brought together Frances Beinecke, President of the Natural Resources Defense Council; Michael Burne, Executive Director of the Sierra Club; David Yarnall sitting in for Fred Krupp, President of the Environmental Defense Fund; and Mark Terek, President and CEO of the Nature Conservancy. All agreed that passing climate change legislation is a top priority to solving larger environmental issues, but they also agreed that it will be an uphill battle — if not one of the hardest political struggles they have ever faced. On the other hand, the panel estimated that there's a 50% chance of passing some kind of legislation by this time next year.

(NNPA) The entire world community will continue to be positively impacted by the unprecedented, creative and spirit-edifying eloquent contributions from the gifted-voice and artistic genius of Whitney Houston. While we affectionately mourn her passing with the greatest of sorrow and condolence, we should take this moment forthrightly to affirm the living legacy of Whitney and not be tempted by those who only want to only focus on something negative. As a truly iconic singer, actress, model, philanthropist and committed servant for the empowerment of those who know what the struggles of life are all about, Whitney Houston touched the vortex of the soul with a voice that was blessed by God to uplift and inspire the masses of millions of people throughout the world.
It is unfortunate that we live in a society that routinely under values the cultural and expressive significance of people who have given so much of themselves through their respective art forms to help others grapple with the vicissitudes of life. Arising up out of the historic African American church tradition in Newark, New Jersey, Whitney was destined for greatness in the world of music as she labored and shared her talent across America and to the global community.
New Hope Baptist Church in Newark was the place where she began her faith-journey and a career of outstanding success. Her mother, Cissy Houston, is the renowned gospel singer, choir director and spiritual leader. Her cousin is the renowned Dionne Warwick and her godmother is the renowned Aretha Franklin. Our prayers will continue to go out to the entire Houston family and especially to Whitney's young eighteen year-old daughter, Bobbi Kristina.
Whitney Houston in her short 48 years became a living legend in both R&B and popular music. But she was more than star in the music and entertainment industry. Like so many others in R&B, soul, jazz, the blues and gospel, Whitney Houston also gave of herself repeatedly to help people become empowered. She gave to numerous charities in Newark and across the nation. In fact, Nelson Mandela and the Mandela family considered Whitney as a member of their extended family because of her longstanding support of empowerment in South Africa and in other nations. In spite of the tragedy of her death, Houston's star still shines and will always shine in the hearts and spirits of people everywhere who have a passion for freedom, justice, love and equality.
One of my proudest moments was at the NAACP Image Awards in 1994 when Whitney Houston was awarded one of the NAACP's highest honors for her trailblazing achievements and accomplishments. Literally a whole generation of younger artists today is still being inspired by tremendous voice of Whitney that transcended more than five octaves with the highest quality of tonality and vocal power. Jennifer Hudson sang a soaring tribute to Whitney at the Grammy Awards and LL Cool J rendered a heartfelt prayer at the beginning of the Grammy Awards ceremonies. Jennifer Holliday stated, "Whitney always showed that she cared about people. She was a very caring person."
When someone that we care about dies, it always appropriate to remember the good that was done through the life of the departed. We, therefore, recall and remember the good works and great accomplishments of Whitney Houston. Let us work now to also make a positive and a productive contribution to the uplift of all of humanity. For all who have been inspired by Whitney Houston, let's pledge to keep her family in our prayers and to continue to push forward to make our world a better place. Long live the spirit of beloved Whitney Houston.
