The item was delivered within three days, boxed with another item I had bought. On opening the parcel the packaging was impressive which helps. In the box you get the shaver body with the three floating heads, a beard trimmer that interchanges with the main head, small cleaning brush, two pin charging lead (120/230v), a charging cradle and a lightweight carrying pouch.
Clear pictogram instructions too although it really is a simple piece of kit.
The shaver has an all in one high gloss "skin" to the front half and is seamlessly joined to a slightly rubberised rear panel. This is all sealed as it can be used in the wet as well although I have not tried this yet.
It sits in the charging cradle and a flashing light to the front of the shaver shows it is charging. It was completely dead on arrival but after an hour it had stopped charging. On first use I noticed it was very quiet compared to my previous one and was very comfortable to use. My first shave was a success and I think better than my old one by far. I was very happy with it and have remained so since.
It has a useful travel lock facility which is activated by holding down the on off switch for three seconds and so would be useful if crammed in to a washbag.Read more ›
I have light beard growth (just so you know) and it deals with it well. It's also very quiet... again in start contrast to the Panasonic.
So why 3 stars?
Two reasons. First is that the trimming device is a seperate head - a little tug and the head pops off easily enough. How many swaps it will take before something doesn't need a tug anymore is anyone's guess. It does mean that the chances of it going missing / being fogotton are increased.
Second is the price of new foils. The blurb that came with it suggests that it needs to be replaced every 12 months. Before you buy this, dear reader, check out the prices for the foils (12 months) and the mount it sits on (24 months). The bit you pull off comes in 2 bits you understand. I don't think you'll be impressed.
I will shave more frequent now
So, this was me playing catch-up and I used it for the first time and wasn't overly impressed. OK I was in a rush, but God it takes so long to have an electric shave.
Day 2 and I used a little more pre-electric lotion and this time I got as better (and quicker shave). There's hope yet, though the razer doesn't feel exactly 'positive' on the face.
As I am using the shaver as dry, it did not shave as good as Braun foil shaver which I bought recently ( after the philips) particularly at the neck level.
Using it at that level created a bit of irritation and redness ( which is not the case with Braun, in my case at least)
It is obviously less noisy than the Braun, I think.
I feel that the Braun series 7 is really the best of what I used.
Come on Philips, how did this get past testing?

BG Lines Up Japan to Finance LNG Projects as Costs Rise
BG Group Plc, the U.K.'s third-largest natural gas producer, lined up the Japan Bank for International Cooperation to fund projects to liquefy the fuel as costs rise.
The Japanese lender joins the Bank of China, Brazilian Development Bank and Export Development Bank of Canada, which agreed to fund BG projects in the last 18 months, the Reading, England-based company said today in a statement.
The agreement is "aimed at supporting the long-term supply of liquefied natural gas to Japan and creating opportunities for Japanese companies to participate in energy projects around the world," BG said.
BG's cost estimate for its LNG project in Queensland, Australia, surged 36 percent to $20.4 billion in May. It plans to invest $22 billion in projects this year and next, after raising debt by 63 percent to $11.3 billion last year with new loans and bonds, it said in February. Net debt stood at $10.2 billion as of June 30.
BG shares have fallen about 19 percent in London since the March 16 peak this year. The stock closed unchanged at 1,250 pence today.
"This year's capital expenditure increase in Australia and then the group production downgrade were disappointing," Theepan Jothilingam, an oil analyst at Nomura Holdings Inc., wrote in a Sept. 6 report. Shares fell because of the "weak equity markets, lower oil prices and concerns about the profitability of its Australian business."
In July, BG reduced its estimate for output at the end of this year to 720,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day from 750,000 barrels after output was halted at the North Sea's Elgin field and the startup at the Jasmine deposit was delayed until next year.

Dutch Journeys to the Western Edge
24 June - 25 September 2016
Ground Floor Gallery
From Dirk Hartog's landing at remote Cape Inscription in 1616 to our present migrant connections, Dutch Journeys to the Western Edge draws stories from the collections in the State Library. Whether seeking trade, refuge or opportunity the Dutch, like others to land on our shores, have helped shape Western Australia.
The State Library's exhibition looks beyond the early maritime history to include stories of recent Dutch military history and migrant journeys to WA.
The exhibition is the State Library's contribution to the recognition of the 400th Anniversary of the European discovery of the west coast of the Australian continent. Dirk Hartog landed in the Eendracht at Cape Inscription, Shark Bay on 25 October 1616.
Many items from the State Library collection are so precious that the Library cannot put them on public display. However, with technology, we can bring these pieces to our audience in other ways both physically in the exhibition and on-line through the catalogue.
This free exhibition runs from Friday 24 June to Sunday 25 September in the State Library's Ground Floor Gallery.
Free Education Excursion Workshop and Exhibition Tour
Suitcases: Stories of Migration is a workshop for students. In groups, students work to unpack a suitcase and piece together a personal story of migration based on primary and secondary historical evidence from the State Library Collections. Students consider the impact of migration on Western Australia and the stories of migrants, as well as the many reasons for migration.
The exhibition Dutch Journeys to the Western Edge will be supported by a self-guided trail, engaging students with 400 years of Western Australian history and stories of Dutch migrants and their legacy.
To make a booking for your students, fill in the form here.
Community Open Day
Come along for an afternoon of talks, story sharing, digitisation opportunities, and curatorial tours of Dutch Journeys to the Western Edge.
This is a free event, but please register at: www.slwa.eventbrite.com

DEFINITION of 'Dealer-Median Prepayment Speed'
The median value of all Wall Street securities dealers' prepayment speed estimates for the underlying mortgages used to form mortgage-backed securities. The prepayment speed estimates used by banks and other regulated financial enterprises to value and manage mortgage-backed security portfolios are a concern to regulators. To that end, dealer-median speeds are widely used as conservative estimates.
BREAKING DOWN 'Dealer-Median Prepayment Speed'
The dealer-median prepayment speed is an important consideration, as it is the median measure of how fast mortgage borrowers will prepay their mortgages. Prepayment speed estimates are also a very important variable in mortgage-backed securities valuation and analysis. Investors and traders compete to develop more accurate proprietary models in order to outperform each other in the broader market.

Bini Smaghi Says European Lawmakers Must Take Speedy Decisions
Former European Central Bank Executive Board member Lorenzo Bini Smaghi said lawmakers must speed up their decision-making processes to stabilize financial markets and safeguard the euro.
"For politicians to be credible, it's important to anticipate and take decisions early," Bini Smaghi said in an interview with CNBC broadcast today. "Unfortunately, politicians have been determined but always too late. It's too risky to manage a currency like this."
At some point, markets will test the resolution of lawmakers to fix the region's debt crisis, Bini Smaghi said. The best strategy to avoid the resurgence of fear on financial markets is to "clearly identify" the emergency funds available "and say if needed, theses funds will be used," he said.

Subject: [jerseyshorerawfoods] Blue Green Algae Blowout Sale
We love blue green algae. It's high in easily digestible protein, high in chlorophyll, high in the all-important essential fatty acid DHA needed for our brains and eyes, just to name a few of its wonderful properties. It's very nutrient dense, which means a little goes a long way. Ours is cold temperature dried, so it's easy to take and keeps a long time (unlike the frozen variety, which I find cumbersome).
We somehow didn't stay on top of rotating our stock and accidentally sold some of the newer batches first. Whoops! The result is that we have four bottles that are dated 12/2011. In my opinion, they're still good, but because they're labeled "best used by 12/2011," I've decided to offer them way below cost. Normal price is $100. I'm happy to offer them to you at $60 for a single bottle, $50 per bottle for two or more or $50 for a single bottle if you buy any other products along with it that total $50 or more. I'll even throw in free shipping if your order totals at least $100. Offer good while supplies last. I only have four, so I expect they'll go quickly at this price.
Email or call to order or ask questions. You can find our product list by clicking here and downloading the PDF file.
Be well and happy holidays,

Wearing headscarves, face clean of make-up, Palestinian women join Hamas paramilitaries.
Middle East Online
Aqal: 'I interrogate men as well as women'
GAZA CITY - Susan Aqal is a tightly veiled Palestinian mother who has a baby boy. But she has abandoned traditional domestic life to interrogate suspected drug addicts, thieves and murderers in the volatile Gaza Strip. A university graduate who worked as a lawyer for various organisations, she leapt at the chance to fulfill her dream of becoming a police officer after the democratically elected Islamist movement Hamas seized the territory in June. "This is my field. This is what I studied. I wanted a job in security and used to work in other organisations, but when I got the chance I didn't hesitate to join the police force," says the 28-year-old wife of a Hamas paramilitary officer. Shrouded in a loose-fitting black coat, wearing a purple headscarf and white cotton underpiece designed to hide all of her hair, and with her face clean of make-up, Aqal is one of 50 women working with Hamas paramilitaries in Gaza City. While most are secretaries, she is one of 10 policewomen based at the Saraya prison in a nascent force set up by Hamas last month as "proof" of its progressive thinking. "I know that this job needs a strong personality and someone who is courageous. I'm not scared. I just feel that the guilty need to be punished," she says, reeling off a list of crimes she interrogates suspects for -- murder, drugs, theft and moral vice. "We're treated very well within our brotherhood. I work here in the compound and deal with criminals directly. I interrogate men as well as women. At the moment I'm assisting our officers because we haven't finished our training yet," she says. Amin Nawfal, a commander in the self-styled "man's police" -- the Executive Force that supervises the women -- says they will eventually be given firearms training, take part in arrest operations and be fully integrated. "Females can't be touched by a man, therefore we need women police. That's proof we are a lawful country and not an Islamic state. It doesn't violate Sharia law either," Nawfal says. Women work as police across the Muslim world, including Iran, where women clad in black chadors are taught how to use guns, rappel down buildings, chase cars and disable bombs. "Having women in security jobs shows how democratic we are and that we have equality between men and women," says Nawfal, dressed in military fatigues and sitting at an enormous desk, Hamas television flickering in the background. "My mother looks after my baby and my husband is a lawyer and in the force, so he is totally supportive," Aqal says. "All the women in my family are working, so they encourage me. This is no problem in our community and we don't face any discrimination," she adds. At the moment, she earns 300 dollars (216 euros) a month working from 8:00 am until 3:00 pm six days a week, but after a six-month trial period she expects to nearly double her salary. She proudly shows off her large office -- standard issue for women recruits -- complete with a desk, computer and mobile phone. Her only complaint is the lack of uniform. "The women's force is asking for a uniform to differentiate them from the other women working in administration. I'm wearing what I normally wear at the moment but we would like it to be dark blue or black, patterned the same as the men's." "In time there will be a women's uniform in keeping with Islamic sharia, so it won't be a shirt or a T-shirt. It'll be the same as she's wearing," says Nawfal, gesturing in Aqal's direction. "We hope it will be the same colour and look as the men's uniform." For the moment, Nawfal recognises that women's recruitment is a controversial issue, and that few outside Hamas are even aware of it. Nawfal says some people are scared to join, worried about losing salaries paid by the Western-backed government in the West Bank should they cast their lot in with Hamas after the takeover. "There are women police?" asks Talat Abdo, an award-winning hairdresser with dyed locks. His salon is deserted, a casualty of the economic meltdown that followed the formation of the first Hamas-led government in 2006. "I thought they were religious. They control the Gaza Strip without anything, so why do they need women? I don't think they do. We're already a conservative community and not a lot of women break the law," he says. Abdo says business over the past 18 months has never been worse in the 35 years he has owned a salon. "Now it's about 25-30 women a week. During the good days of Abu Ammar (Yasser Arafat) and the Palestinian Authority, there was a lot of work. The shop was crowded and people had to book before they came." Not any more, he says, before going back to watching an Egyptian film.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Rep. Mike Simpson (R-ID), chair of the House Energy and Water Development Appropriations Subcommittee, is set to speak at the 2016 National Cleanup Workshop, scheduled to be held Sept. 14-15 at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center in Alexandria, Va.
TULSA, Okla. – EM's next quarterly public forum to discuss upcoming business opportunities in the legacy nuclear cleanup program is set for Wed., July 13 in Tulsa, Okla.
The U.S. faces a growing demand for scientists trained and educated in radiochemistry, the chemical study of radioactive elements. With that in mind, the Energy Department's offices of Nuclear Energy (NE) and Environmental Management (EM) are co-funding a new traineeship program in radiochemistry at Washington State University (WSU) in Pullman.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Managers from EM field offices and cleanup contractors across the DOE cleanup program are set to take part in the 2016 National Cleanup Workshop, scheduled to be held on Sept. 14-15, 2016, at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center in Alexandria, Va.
Planned participants include:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – About 100 EM employees from across the complex gathered for a meaningful exchange that focused on continuous improvements in planning and executing the cleanup program's contracts and projects at an annual workshop this month.
AIKEN, S.C. - EM celebrated another milestone in the cleanup of radioactive liquid waste stored at the Savannah River Site (SRS) with a recent ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Salt Waste Processing Facility (SWPF).
WEST VALLEY, N.Y. – It has been 20 years since a human has been allowed in the Vitrification Cell at EM's West Valley Demonstration Project (WVDP), where past operations involved solidifying liquid high-level radioactive waste.
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho – Shirley Perez may be the most excited person ready to get her hands on new robotic arms when they are installed in the EM Idaho Site's Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Project (AMWTP) boxlines this fall.
RICHLAND, Wash. – Final decontamination efforts are underway in a former processing canyon that once supported Hanford's Plutonium Finishing Plant.
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho – Several recommendations from technical experts who attended a Chemistry Summit in January and a Fluidized Bed Workshop in April have been incorporated into EM's Idaho Integrated Waste Treatment Unit (IWTU), and based on a recent simulated waste treatment test, the results look promising.

This patent arises from a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/916,511, entitled "Methods and Apparatus for Indirect Illumination in Electronic Media Rating Systems," which was filed on Jul. 2, 2008. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/916,511 is the U.S. national stage of PCT Application Serial No. PCT/US2005/020128, which was filed on Jun. 8, 2005. Both U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/916,511 and PCT Application Serial No. PCT/US2005/020128 are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
This disclosure relates generally to electronic media rating systems, and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for indirect illumination in electronic media rating systems.
A price that can be charged for advertising time during a media presentation is principally affected by a size of a potential viewing audience of the media event or show, as well as the demographics of the potential audience. It is generally recognized that a large audience will view significant sporting events (e.g., The Superbowl, World Cup soccer, etc.). However, knowledge of the audience size for other types of televised events or shows is more difficult to ascertain.
Typically, recorded past historical media consumption (e.g., television viewing, radio listening, etc.) is used to estimate future media consumption.
For locations in which more than one potential audience member may be present, the meter 110 can, in addition to recording the selected events and shows, record which audience member(s) were present during a selected event or show. The meter 110 can determine a presence of the audience member 115 by, for example, receiving signals from the remote control 120, or another remote device, that identify the audience member 115. For example, the audience member 115 could press one or more buttons on the remote 120 or directly on the meter 110 to identify themselves. In a known example, the meter 110 occasionally prompts the audience member 115 to signal their identification.
In some known examples, the meter 110 uses image recognition techniques to detect the presence of the audience member(s) 115. To perform the image recognition techniques, the meter 110 includes an image processor 130 that is responsive to visible light reflected off of the audience member(s) 115. The visible light might be created by the television 105 or by another visible light source 135 (e.g., a lamp, a light fixture, a window, a candle, etc.) present in a room. Using one or a variety of well-known techniques, the image processor 130 captures signals representative of the reflected light and applies appropriate signal processing to the captured signals to identify a number of audience members present. In some examples, the image processor 130 may be capable to distinguish the audience member(s) 115 such that the identities of the audience member(s) 115 can be electronically determined and recorded.
The signal capture and processing performed by the image processor 130 is significantly complicated in circumstances when the audience member(s) 115 are viewing an information presenting device such as a television 105 in a darkened room. Such circumstances can increase noise present in the captured signals, cause image contrast problems, increase shadows (e.g., shadows caused by a single non-diffused light source), etc. Further, scene changes during the televised event or show can cause significant variations in intensity of the reflected light. All of these conditions can reduce the effectiveness and accuracy of audience member detection and identification performed by the image processor 130.
As discussed above, the accuracy of image recognition based audience member detection and identification is typically dependent upon the quantity and quality of light present in the room being monitored. However, it is undesirable and impractical that the prior-art example electronic media rating system 100 either require the audience member(s) 115 to watch television with lights turned on, or watch with a specific arrangement of visible light sources to improved the effectiveness of the image recognition system. Such requirements could significantly reduce compliance of the participating audience member(s) 115, and could potentially reduce the number of willing participants in media exposure studies, thereby reducing the statistical accuracy of resultant media exposure ratings.
It is well known in photography, that indirect illumination provides illumination that is more uniform (i.e., substantially equal illumination spread across an area) and less prone to wash out details (i.e., to cause strong highlights that obscure details) in a scene being photographed.
The example illumination source 205 of
The illumination source 205 may emit light continuously or intermittingly. Further, the times at which light is emitted may be tied to certain events. For instance, the illumination source 205 emits infrared light continuously whenever the meter 110 is operational. Alternatively, the illumination source 205 can be operated to only emit infrared light while the image processor 130 is operational (e.g., while the image processor 130 is idle, capturing signals, or processing signals). In another example, the illumination source 205 emits infrared light only when the image processor 130 is capturing signals. In a further example, the illumination source 205 emits infrared light only when a sensor (not shown) associated with the meter 110 detects that insufficient ambient room light is available for reliable metering. In such an example, the image processor 130 may receive an output of a visible light measuring device (e.g., a photo cell detector). If more than a predetermined threshold amount of ambient room light is available, the image processor 130 configures the illumination source 205 to not emit light and bypasses the light filter 230 so that the image processor 130 can receive visible light. When insufficient ambient light is available the image processor 130 activates the illumination source 205 and the light filter 230. Persons of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that there are numerous ways to determine if sufficient ambient room light is present for reliable metering. The image processor 130 can use a metric (e.g., signal noise) from an image processing algorithm executing on the image processor 130 to determine if sufficient ambient room light is available.
Different materials used to construct the ceiling 230 may affect an intensity of the indirect illumination 220 created by the illumination source 205. In the example of
To allow the illumination source 205 of the example of
As discussed below in connection with
As dictated by trigonometric and optical principles, adjusting the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 relative to a horizontal plane adjusts the portion of the room 410 illuminated by the illumination source 205. For example, if the illumination source 205 is angled upwards at an angle of θ degrees with respect to horizontal and is located X feet below the ceiling 215, then the center line 210 of the illumination intersects the ceiling 215 at a point X tan(θ) feet from the illumination source 205 and at an angle of θ degrees (with respect to the surface of the ceiling). Further, as dictated by optical principles, the indirect illumination 220 leaves the intersection point at an angle of θ degrees (with respect to the surface of the ceiling). Finally, the indirect illumination 220 intersects a seating surface at a point Y/tan(θ) feet from the illumination source 205, where Y is a difference between a height of the ceiling 215 and a seating height (e.g., eye level) of the audience member(s) 115 seated on the seating surface. Similarly, knowing the spreading angle φ 405 of the illumination emitted by the illumination source 205, the illuminated portion 410 of the room can be determined. In particular, one edge of the pattern leaves the illumination source 205 at an angle of θ−φ/2 degrees and the other edge at an angle of θ+φ/2 degrees.
Given a ceiling height, a desired pre-determined indirect illumination region 410 (e.g., defined by an average seating height and an average distance from the seating surfaces to the illumination source 205), and a mounting height of the illumination source 205, and using techniques described above, an angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 can be determined that indirectly illuminates the desired indirect illumination region 410. Alternately, rather than using the average distance from the illumination source 205 to the seating surfaces, the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 can be determined to illuminate a center portion of the room. Further, the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 can be determined to indirectly illuminate primary seating surfaces in the room. It should be readily apparent, to persons of ordinary skill in the art that an angle θ 402 and a mounting height of the illumination source 205 can be chosen to illuminate a desired indirect illumination region 410 within the physical constraints of the room in question.
Care must be taken when selecting relative heights of the illumination source 205 and the cover 245. For example, if the illumination source 205 is located below the top of the front surface of the cover 245, then a minimum angle θ (with respect to horizontal) of the illumination source 205 is greater than zero, and a maximum distance from the illumination source 205 to an indirect illumination region 410 that can be supported is correspondingly limited.
It will be readily apparent to persons of ordinary skill in the art, that the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 could be adaptively controlled (e.g., using a motor adapted to adjust the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205 in response to control signals provided by the image processor 130) to allow the image processor 130 to adjust an intensity of the indirect illumination 220 present in different portions of the room. For example, if the image processor 130 detects that the audience member 115 is located closer to the television 105 than normal, the image processor 130 could adjust (by controlling the motor) the center of the indirect illumination region 410 closer to the television 105.
It will also be readily apparent to persons of ordinary skill in the art that in addition to, or instead of, adjusting the intensity of the illumination source 205 or adaptively controlling the angle θ 402 of the illumination source 205, the ceiling could be augmented to include a reflective surface. For example, the reflective surface could be placed at a pre-determined location on the ceiling so that when the non-visible light 210 is reflected off of the reflective surface near optimal indirect illumination 220 (e.g., illuminates a desired portion 410 with a desired intensity) of the room occurs. In one example, the reflective surface is selected to have better light reflection characteristics than the material used to construct the ceiling.
It will be readily appreciated that a viewing location may a have high (e.g., vaulted), obstructed (e.g., by beams, etc.), or absent (e.g., outdoors) ceiling. In such circumstances, a reflector could be used. In one example, the reflector is mounted above the illumination source 205 (e.g., using a second mounting bracket attached to the mounting bracket 240, or to the wall 235) and is angled with respect to a horizontal plane to cause the indirect illumination 220. In another example, the reflector is mounted to, or hanging from, a naturally occurring or man-made surface or structure located in the viewing location (e.g., a beam, a tree, a tree limb, a rock, an overhang, a post, etc.) and is positioned either horizontally or angled depending upon the relative positions of the illumination source 205 and the desired indirect illumination region 410.
The example process of
The example machine readable instructions of
It should be readily apparent to persons of ordinary skill in the art, that the example machine readable instructions of
The processor platform 700 of the example includes the processor 710 that is a general purpose programmable processor. The processor 710 executes coded instructions present in main memory of the processor 710. The processor 710 may implement, among other things, the example machine readable instructions illustrated in
The processor 710 is in communication with the main memory including a read only memory (ROM) 720, a random access memory (RAM) 725 via a bus 705. The RAM 725 may be implemented by Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM), and/or any other type of random access memory device. The ROM 720 may be implemented by flash memory and/or any other desired type of memory device. Access to the memory space 720, 725 is typically controlled by a memory controller (not shown) in a conventional manner.
The processor platform 700 also includes a conventional interface circuit 730. The interface circuit 730 may be implemented by any type of well known interface standard, such as an external memory interface, serial port, general purpose input/output, etc.
One or more input devices 735 are connected to the interface circuit 730. One or more output devices 740 are also connected to the interface circuit 730. The output devices 740 may be used by the processor 710 to control the motor to adjust the angle 402 of the illumination source 205.
From the foregoing, persons of ordinary skill in the art will further appreciate that the above disclosed methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture provide safe indirect illumination for electronic media rating systems. Although the examples discussed herein reference a television as the information presenting device 105, persons of ordinary skill in the art will appreciated that the information presenting device can be any media presenting device. For example, a television, a radio, a stereo, a computer, a digital video disc (DVD) player, a digital video recorder (DVR), etc.
Although certain example methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture have been described herein, the scope of coverage of this patent is not limited thereto. On the contrary, this patent covers all methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture fairly falling within the scope of the appended claims either literally or under the doctrine of equivalents.

The shooter at a Munich mall last week who killed nine and left 27 wounded was an admirer of right-wing Norwegian mass murderer Anders Breivik, and he appears to have hated Muslims.
Doomed writers buried their accounts of the Warsaw ghetto in the hope that they could teach whoever unearthed the documents about good, evil, indifference and the importance of the truth as an act of resistance. They have left us a trove of papers on how to construct a life of meaning.
By Jeff Danziger
Turns out some of the arguments Brexit supporters used to rally voters to support their cause aren't only applicable to the U.K.—and neither is the idea of leaving the European Union.
At Left Forum 2016, Truthdig contributor Chris Hedges explained how the early 20th-century revolutionary socialist's philosophies are relevant to today's struggle against capitalism.
She was only 14 when her mother decided that Nasima's best hope for a future meant leaving her home, her family and everything she knew to make a grueling trek to Europe.
Carefully timed deals help big money managers skirt dividend taxes in 20 countries, confidential documents show.
Sitting next to Chancellor Angela Merkel during a summit in Germany, the U.S. president continued to ignore opponents as he defended the controversial agreement with European nations.
Poet Adam Kirsch, inspired by the photographs of August Sander, has created an important book about one of the 20th century's most devastating eras. He especially illuminates a Germany that would soon be filled with the cancer of Nazism.
Europol, the European Union's law enforcement agency, says gangs throughout Europe are targeting young migrants for sex work and slavery.
A 13-year-old Russian-German girl has admitted to making up a story about being kidnapped and raped by Middle Eastern or North African migrants in a case that outraged Germans and caused far-right protests in Russia.
In the United States, the cost of wind-generated electricity is down 66 percent since 2009, and there are now 50,000 wind turbines, generating enough electricity to power 19 million homes.
A deadly blast ripped through the city's Sultanahmet tourist district Tuesday, killing at least 10 people and wounding 15 more. Turkey's prime minister placed blame for the attack on Islamic State.
Once upon a time, socialists running for president in the United States had to explain that while they had no chance of actually winning an election, their campaigns were aimed at "educating" voters—about socialism.
The German government said Wednesday that responsibility for the Holocaust lay with the Germans, after Israel's prime minister ignited a firestorm of controversy before a visit to Berlin by saying a Muslim elder had convinced Adolf Hitler to exterminate Jews.
In Tuesday's debate, the Vermont senator fell into the trap of mainstream politics when he failed to face down the front-runner on her policy positions and record.
Russian and Ukrainian officials expressed cautious optimism following discussions in which Russia pushed for Ukraine to take back legal control of eastern territories.
As hundreds of refugees and other migrants flow into the German city of Hamburg each day, a new law will allow for the seizure of empty commercial buildings to house the newcomers. Some have had to sleep outdoors, an increasingly precarious situation as temperatures drop.
In addition to accepting more refugees, the United States must stop providing weapons, training and funding to the armed opposition forces and enlist Russia and Iran in pursuing a diplomatic solution to this tragic conflict.
Americans are no strangers to embarrassing exports. But when it comes to Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, we may have outdone ourselves.
Cypriot officials are reporting that Russia has asked them to alter airline routes this week because it is planning naval military maneuvers off the Syrian coast near its leased naval base, Tartous.
Hordes fleeing war-torn Syria and other lands are struggling to understand why German Chancellor Angela Merkel, praised as "Mama Merkel" for opening her country's borders in early September, closed them again barely eight days later.
Children all over the world are suffering, and families remain trapped by artificial borders and legal requirements. Rather than simply increase quotas for some refugees, we need to envision a world where everyone has the right to flee violence and poverty.
Annette Groth, a member of the German Parliament, recently returned from a trip to Hungary, where she saw thousands of migrants stranded at the Budapest train station. "What is the root for this massive migration?" she asks "Democracy Now!" "It is war, it is terror, and it is the former U.S. government who is accountable for it."
Thousands of years of Europe's history can be traced via the movements of refugees, but its governments appear to have forgotten these age-old lessons. Robert Fisk hopes we get it right this time.
Immersed in the greatest refugee crisis since World War II, the European Union cannot get it together. But ordinary Europeans are doing amazing things.
Some Europeans are protesting that they have no room for refugees in their countries. However, just over a year ago, The Guardian exposed a shocking truth about the continent that pokes a gaping hole in these kind of declarations.
This grim American landscape of racism, religious prejudice, blaming the victim and racial exclusion from immigration is deja vu all over again.
As Europe faces its worst refugee crisis since World War II, Chancellor Angela Merkel says Germany can take in a record-breaking influx of refugees and migrants without suffering a significant economic toll.
As several countries in the region—Hungary, Macedonia, Italy and Greece among them—struggle to deal with staggering numbers of refugees from conflict zones in the Middle East and Africa, European Union leaders have decided it's time for an emergency summit on the subject.
Germany has taken on the global social media site by ruling that its real-name policy violates German citizens' right to privacy.
Beppe Grillo, the comedian-turned-populist-leader of Italy's second largest political party, has called for the nationalization of Italian banks and an exit from the euro.
In his project "Cached Landscapes," Florian Freier uses a service we're all familiar with to make an important statement about the ironies of spying in the digital age.
In a televised meeting that has gone viral, German Chancellor Angela Merkel rubbed the shoulder of a sobbing teenager who faces the threat of deportation under German policies.
In a move that looks at once like a boost for Greece's economic cause and grounds for further complication among eurozone member countries, the International Monetary Fund on Tuesday warned that it might pull its support for the proposed bailout plan unless other nations agree to whittle down some of Greece's debt.
In the final installment of The Real News Network's series of interviews on "Reality Asserts Itself," Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer explains how an infatuation with American culture and an ignorance of American history have led to unbelievable levels of brutality and destruction.
To get desperately needed funds, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras has submitted his country to harsh economic reforms that the people had rejected in a referendum just a week earlier.
Aside from monetary considerations, time is clearly the most important commodity in the ongoing crunch sessions between Greek and European leaders as they hash out a potential rescue strategy to keep Greece in the eurozone and out of financial free fall.

"Those who want to chase Greece out of the eurozone today," the French economist says, "will end up on the trash heap of history."
In part seven of an interview series on The Real News Network's "Reality Asserts Itself," Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer tells TRNN Senior Editor Paul Jay that America's ruling parties are composed not of ideologues committed to particular values but of careerists fortunately susceptible to public pressure.

Analysis of falling demand for electricity within the EU sends a stark warning to investors in new coal plants that their assets could be left stranded.
The adoption of wind and solar for electricity generation around the world is happening at a growing pace, and the likelihood is that it will displace hydrocarbons in 15 to 20 years (decades sooner than Big Coal, Big Oil and Big Gas expect).
Pro-war German media conglomerate Axel Springer, the "most serious" contender to buy the Huffington Post in the proposed sale of the magazine's corporate parent, AOL, to Verizon, is notorious for inciting violence and hatred against leftists and Muslims.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU coach Les Miles canceled Monday's 3 p.m. practice on Sunday afternoon and will wait out Hurricane Katrina like the rest of south Louisiana.
Miles said his main concern was players whose families live in the path of the dangerous storm, which was expected to hit land Monday.
LSU's roster has 26 players from the New Orleans area.
Miles and his staff spent Sunday in the office, treating the day like a Monday because they expected to miss work Monday. Miles' first press luncheon of the season had been scheduled for Monday but was postponed with no new date set.
LSU is scheduled to open the season at 7 p.m. Saturday against North Texas in Tiger Stadium, which was still undergoing construction Sunday afternoon on a new west upper deck.
"They're going to work as long as they can on Monday," LSU assistant athletic director Herb Vincent said Sunday. "They will also secure all possible projectiles around the stadium and batten down all other construction and equipment around the stadium for the storm."

The rating is strictly for the sauce as I make my own rub. The sauce is fantastic. I used a red sweet onion and played of the rhubarb perfectly. I found no need to add any extra water.
So funny I see this recipe here - I'm making this for dinner tomorrow night. A long time Eating Well subscriber I have been making this since seeing it in the magazine. Very glad it's here now so I can use it for my shopping list. Great recipe - for anyone that likes Rhubarb this one is a keeper!
Wow! This was really good. I love pork tenderloin and am always sad in the winter when we can't grill it. This was a great indoor recipe. I made the sauce the day before and just warmed it up to serve it--worked great and made the last minute dinner crunch so much easier.
I made just the Sweet Onion Rhubarb Sauce portion of this recipe as I already had a different spice rub that I was using on my pork. It was a great compliment to the pork. Very good will be making again.

I am new to vb 2008,i am trying to make an application to calculate molarity(chemistry).
Below is the equation (for non chemistry)
where M1 and M2 are Molarity and V1,V2 are volume(all variables).
so for my application i have made four textbox and a button.Now what i have done is my application only can find one variable M2 when provided other three values
i want to know how i can make this application more dynamic
lets say i want to find
M1,M2,V1 or V2 any of these,just providing the other three values
I think it can be done using if else statment but i dont know how to do it
Advance thanks for your help
