It's not always easy to find ways to be more environmentally responsible and still meet all the obligations of everyday life. For example, many people would like the chance to ride a bike to work everyday or walk instead of having to drive a car, but for many of those people that's just not a feasible option.

The earth receives more than enough energy from the sun in an hour to supply the world's energy requirement for the whole year.

The good thing, though, is that there is a constant increase in demand for solar energy; and over the years of continuous development, solar panels are much cheaper today. Harnessing the power of the sun's ray to create energy to power our house is very appealing. But the question is, "Is everything about solar energy good?"< Less
The Lumitron. A new way to harness solar Energy
eBook (PDF): $0.00

An initial study about the Lumitron, in Italian, was subsequently published on lulu.com, under the title "Un nuovo modo di utilizzare l'energia solare" ("A new way to use solar energy"), authored and signed by both of us. In the English translation, which is presented here, some slip-ups in the original Italian version have been corrected, and a name, Lumitron, has been assigned to the device. Giancarlo liked to think that the possibility of producing unlimited energy at effectively no cost would help to alleviate, at least in part, the depths of poverty into which so many "sunny countries" are plunged. We hope that this may prove to be true.< Less

I think he likes this game alot as he has stopped plating the Wii and Xbox 360 wrestling games he has. Lots of different types of matches in this game. Hours of fun.
Fun wwe game to play
I bought this game as a gift for my 8 year old son who is a huge fan of wrestling. I have to make him put it down everyday. It's a great mixture of the new aged wrestlers with a few hall of famers like Hulk Hogan and Jake the Snake. Great value for the price especially for a 3ds game. Absolutely would recommend it for any wrestling fan that enjoys playing video games.

Released: Dec 01st, 1997
Running Time: 121
Director: Sid Licious
Company: Devil's Film
Distribution Companies: IVC
Cast: Bunny Bleu, Amber (I), Cassidy (I), Chandler (I), Riana Star, Morgan Fairlane, Sid Deuce, Candy Hill, Alyssa Love, Randee Lee, Mila (I), Holi Woods, Shelbee Myne
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
For long stretches of its two-hour running time, this 13-pussy clam-bake, heavy on the back door action, is an absolute scorcher.
Take the opener in which Sid Deuce and Bunny Bleu wreak havoc on each other's snatches and assholes with tongues, fingers, dildos and strap-ons. Scene two is more of the same, except with different players, namely Mila, Shelbee Myne and Riana Star.
But the vid's energy level dips for much of the next two scenes, particularly the fourth, a meandering four-way which suffers from not being more tightly edited. Even so, it's still extremely strokable in spots.
The tape then closes out strongly as the strap-on wielding Deuce and Alyssa Love d.p.Morgan Fairlane.

Sweet and Hot Mustard
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 2 hrs 30 mins
This is from "The Frugal Gourmet Celebrates Christmas". I made the entire "Swedish Winter Feast" for a past Christmas and it was wonderful! I'll post the other recipes next. The whole meal is: Swedish Corned Pork Roast, Swedish Sauerkraut, Swedish Green Split Peas with Bacon, Mashed Rutabaga, Turnip, and Potato & Sweet and Hot Mustard, served with Rye Bread. I expected not to like anything and ended up LOVING everything! This is an excellent mustard. It will keep for a week refrigerated.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (4 ounce) candry Coleman's dry mustard
- 1 cup malt vinegar
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 eggs, beaten
- In a small stainless steel bowl, mix the mustard and the vinegar until smooth. Allow to sit for 3 hours.
- Combine the mustard mixture with the sugar and eggs in the top of a double boiler.
- Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring regularly until thickened (the consistency of mayonnaise).
- Store in refrigerator.
Most Helpful
I had never used a double boiler, so I looked it up. I took a stainless steel bowl and fitted over a bowl of simmering water. I kept a close eye on it so the eggs wouldn't scramble, and stirred until it was the right consistency. Hope that helps any newbies like me! Also, this is the most delicious mustard I have ever tasted! I have only tried this on cheese sandwiches, but it would make a great sauce for chicken nuggets.
I really enjoyed this mustard. It was not what I expected but so much better! My husband loves mustard and this was a nice surprise for him! Thanks for the interesting recipe! We will make this again! MADE FOR ZWT4
This is outstanding! Punchy taste that SO enhances the flavor of the meat (we had ham). So glad I came across this recipe, as I am usually SO disappointed in the way my hams turn out, but this came galloping in and RESCUED me from ham-oblivion! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Skip to comments.Dem Congressman: Id Rather Sell My Soul to Pelosi than the Kochs
Posted on 04/09/2014 3:36:22 PM PDT by Sub-Driver
April 9, 2014 6:11 PM Dem Congressman: I'd Rather Sell My Soul to Pelosi than the Kochs By Josh Encinias
Democratic congressman Nick Rahall told a GOP tracker on Tuesday that he would rather sell his soul to House minority leader Nancy Pelosi than selling it to the Koch brothers!
Several weeks ago, when Pelosi promised him more campaign money and convinced him to stay in the race, Rahall was preparing for retirement. He is a top GOP target in the 2014 election.
The GOP tracker asked Rahall how it felt to sell your soul to Nancy Pelosi, and the congressman initially ignored his comment, calling him quite the jokester. After a pregnant pause, Rahall quipped: Better than selling it to the Koch brothers!
Democrats have souls?
Satan already has a Bill of Sale.
Dem Congressman for sale! Says will sell soul to Pelosi!
He'd better be careful of double-billing - most congressmen (and women) have already sold their souls to Satan.
Why would she want his soul when she already has his b@lls?
Beat me by a minute.
Dems don't have souls so there ya go
People don't sell their souls, they give them away. Most Dems did that a long time ago.
If he rather sell himself to Pelosi, he is also selling himself to Soros so what is the point of his statement? Pretty much of an idiot if you ask me.
You already sold it. It's not yours to offer anymore, commie scumbag.
I thought West Virginia was getting rid of these idiots. I Guess not. Have fun finding a job once Obama and Rahall close down your coal mines you morons.
I don't think the Kochs want to sell their souls. And, the guy doesn't have their permission, either.
Can't, the devil already owns his soul.
Sell your soul to Pelosi in exchange for what?
Don't worry, Rahall is already trailing his GOP opponent. It's why he's lost his mind with comments like these.
Headline should read:
Democrat admits Pelosi owns his soul
Democrat admits Nancy Pelosi is Satan
Democratic congresscritters sell their souls to the devil every day. What's new?
There are blind voters and there are blind politicians they vote for. Simply amazing how they're led around by that ring in their nose.
Rahall sounds like he may have some moron in him.
He sold his soul the first time he took party money,
Plousey owns him, she pwns in his face and he
eats it up.
I remember the Geo Tracker
"That can be arranged!"
Confirms the satanic nature of Democrats.
Why do elected officials think their souls are up for sale? This speaks volumes about who these people believe they work for.
To twist a punchline: "...now we're just negotiating the buyer."

Nobelist Krugman takes on the "fantasists" of the "burn-baby-burn crowd" for opposing climate action that costs Americans 18 cents a day
Nobel prize-winning NYT columnist Paul Krugman has been doing some terrific writing on the economics of climate action (see Climate action "now might actually help the economy recover from its current slump" by giving "businesses a reason to invest in new equipment and facilities" and "Krugman strongly endorses Waxman-Markey").
Now he writes on Friday's important CBO study, which found a "cost to households of Waxman-Markey in 2020 at $22 billion "" which, given a projected population of 335 million, comes to 18 cents a day. [We've been using the household figure of 48 cents a day.] He ends his column titled, "Climate change fantasies":
The point is that we need to be clear about who are the realists and who are the fantasists here. The realists are actually the climate activists, who understand that if you give people in a market economy the right incentives they will make big changes in their energy use and environmental impact. The fantasists are the burn-baby-burn crowd who hate the idea of using government for good, and therefore insist that doing the right thing is economically impossible.
From a fellow climate realist — Hear! Hear!
9 Responses to Nobelist Krugman takes on the "fantasists" of the "burn-baby-burn crowd" for opposing climate action that costs Americans 18 cents a day
Krugman offers those wise insights, AND Thomas Friedman also recently pointed out (reminded us of) the connection between our oil habit and the trouble that causes in other parts of the world — recent example, Iran.
The matters of our oil habit and dependence are important for a number of reasons, and The Times clearly knows it.
I will be continuing to "push on" the need for The Times to give the public "the straight and accurate story" in response to ExxonMobil's confusing public ads, the most recent of which was on The Times' own front page, as you wrote about last week.
Enough is enough. Now, it's time to see if The Times takes its journalistic responsibilities seriously, in the news itself, supported with facts, on the front page.
Bravo to Krugman and to Friedman.
Be Well,
Krugman is terrific. He's more focused on reality than other economists. If I had acted on his insight regarding the real estate crash I'd be rich. Or at least upper middle class.
Krugman's $0.18 is a per capita cost, not a per household cost. If we assume 2.59 people per household (per US 2000 census) we get …. $0.466!
My only problem is that the $890 gross is the direct cost per household while the net is a result of projected and somewhat indirect reductions.
Thus Saint Paul of Princeton speaks. :) Thank you Paul Krugman for being the economist of the common man.
I doubt the CBO is being realistic about peak coal and peak oil.
Factor in what peak coal and peak oil would do to energy costs and our economy in the BAU scenario, HR2454 wiil probably end up saving the average american thousands a year, maybe even their job, their house, and their lifestyle.
Morris — Good. Tell representatives; they need to hear it.
Excellent. That last paragraph was poetry.
However, I thought this comment was persuasive: http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/06/22/climate-change-fantasies/#comment-188023
Sometimes it feels like we're doing the equivalent of polishing the porthole windows as the Titanic goes down.
The Nightly Business Report tonight on National Public Radio was using the discredited $3,000 dollar annual cost figure. Read this web log and recieve analysis weeks or months ahead of mass media.
Thanks Paul Krugman. The only real costs will be to those invested in contaminating enterprises. Avoiding public disease and death is not a cost, it is an investment.
David B, yes, my duty as well as yours.
DavidCOG, from your link above, I paste this re HR2454:
"The bottom line is that we need to reduce our carbon emissions much, much faster and with much more transparent instruments than this one. It's a stinker."
Could not agree more, this is a triple stinker. But this is still solvable, and we are not at endgame yet.
I look aout the window today at a climate which is still largely unharmed. As do you. Let us fix this.
Pass this Bill, and in a few months there will be another.

Conflict of Interest On the Radio
posted by June 21 at 12:22 PMon
I've been delinquent in letting the world know that there's now a Stranger News Hour on 710 KIRO Radio with Goldy on Saturday from 7-8pm. They've even got a theme song for us!
I've been on a couple of times now (had a delightful spat with a caller about suburban sprawl last Saturday) as has ECB.
Sorry, I haven't let Stranger/Slog readers know about this before (weirdly, even though I dig going on fancy stuff like KING 5, I'm a little bashful about radio).
Anyway, I promised Goldy I'd start pimping the spot on Slog. So, there you have it: Stranger News Hour on 710 KIRO, 7pm on Saturdays.
This weekend, ECB will take the microphone. Good luck ECB!

MADERA, Calif. (AP) -- The Madera County District Attorney's Office says that a couple was sentenced Friday for starting 23 fires in the Yosemite Lake Parks area of Madera in 2013.
The Fresno Bee reports that Kenneth Jackson, 41, was sentenced to 30 years and eight months in state prison for 21 counts of arson and additional counts of conspiracy to commit arson, resisting arrest and battery of a police officer. Alice Waterman, 48, was sentenced to 10 years and eight months in state prison for six counts of arson and one count of conspiracy to commit arson.
The fires occurred during a six-month period from May 11 to June 25 of 2013. The Bee reports that Cal Fire sifted through the wreckage to provide evidence of arson in 23 of the 31 area fires during that period.

The Chic Of Araby
Published: August 18, 2002
(Page 2 of 4)
Only six months before Digby began to make plans for her own journey, an English lord and several of his cronies had decided to see the ruins for themselves. They had been obliged to travel almost wholly by night and stayed in Palmyra for only 24 hours before beginning their return journey, during which they were captured and held captive for four days before managing to escape. Even if one was foolhardy enough to risk being raided -- which was practically guaranteed -- there was no getting around the journey itself, which entailed five days of arduous travel, two of them without a break, across nothing but sand. Only a handful of Europeans had made the trip before Digby, and only one woman. Lady Hester Stanhope, the eccentric and charismatic niece of England's youngest-ever prime minister, William Pitt, had visited Palmyra in 1813, against all odds, dressed, though not disguised (that was Isabelle Eberhardt in Algeria a hundred years later), as a Bedu man. Her trip had taken months of planning and six weeks of provisioning -- that is, shopping the Damascus souk, the lucky thing. Her personal caravan included a dozen Bedu bodyguards, 40 camels and 20 valets, as well as cooks, tent pitchers, grooms and slaves.
Jane Digby's caravan was not as lavish as her predecessor's, but instead of a series of bodyguards to accompany her, she did have a sheik -- Medjuel el Mezrab, next in line as leader of the Sebbah tribe. He was a soft-spoken man, cultured and learned, as well as a famous equestrian and swordsman. His skills were proved quickly when, inevitably, the Digby caravan was attacked three days into its journey. For five days, often traveling at night, Digby and Medjuel rode alongside each other. He was 20 years younger than her and already had a wife and an ex-wife. He was a Bedouin who lived in a tent in the desert. She was 46 and, for all her love of adventure, was an English aristocrat who bought her crinolines in Paris, traveled with a French maid and still wrote letters to her old governess. They appeared to be worlds apart, and yet after their journey, Digby left Syria only to tidy up her affairs in Athens and return to Medjuel. A year later they were married in Damascus. One of his wedding presents to her was a tiny pair of silver pincers on a chain for removing thorns from her feet, and they spent their honeymoon riding again to Palmyra. Digby stayed in Syria, living between the house she built in Damascus and the black tents of the desert for the next 30 years, until she died in 1881.
I rode across the desert for two and a half days in a caravan of six: me; my guide, Mohammed, and his camel, Hannah; my camel, Saba; Saba's baby camel, Sara; and Haldoon, Mohammed's 6-year-old brother, who shared my camel with me. We didn't need a tent, because we were spending our first night in a concrete shack, and our second in a Palmyrene guest house, and we didn't need weapons, because Bedouin raids are a thing of the past. I wore a kaffiyeh like the one Digby wore, but instead of a cloak and a djellaba (which I took with me, to change into once I arrived in Palmyra), I wore green Old Navy trousers and an Indian poplin shirt over a white cotton tank, which I bought in the Damascus souk for a dollar. (For the record, I also bought a vintage pink-and-white striped jacket that might have come off the Marc Jacobs runway; three or four perfect cotton T-shirts with tiny lace detailing; a couple of mink hair toggles; a pot of tiger balm; a polka-dot cotton nightie with flounced sleeves; a rainbow and gold striped headband; a thick, man-size bathrobe; several giant hand-blown blue glass mugs; a tiny striped djellaba for my baby nephew; a selection of silk scarves, including one trimmed with gold coins; and a diamanté letter ''D'' on a long, ghetto-fabulous chain, all for less than -- read this and weep -- $40. God, I loved that souk.)
I wanted desperately to find a pair of lemon yellow ankle boots, pointy-toed or not, but they proved elusive. I did, however, find a pair of soft leather scarlet slippers, decorated with gold, blue and black diamonds, which I planned to wear. However, I was put off by Mohammed Al-Faisel, a young man in the business of matching camels to tourists, who spoke perfect Bart Simpson English, drove a motorcycle and was dressed, the day I met him, in blue camo pants and Nike high-tops. It was he who set me up with his cousins, Mohammed and Haldoon, and their camels; it was he who laughed out loud when he saw my lovely red shoes. So I wore green Puma sneakers instead. My accessories were a camera and a pair of sunglasses, and my only other kit was a bottle of water, a tube of sunscreen, a notebook and a pen.
This is what I thought after one hour on top of my camel: How did those women do it? Jane Digby, like Hester Stanhope before her, and the British adventuress Isabel Burton not long after, rode a camel for five days, including one 48-hour stretch without sleeping. Then she admired the ruins, completed her sketches, got back on her camel and made the same journey back again. I had not imagined that my trip would be a pleasure cruise: indeed, I mounted my camel at 4 a.m. that first day, with good and brave intentions. I was embarking on a pilgrimage. The very word, which comes from the Latin per ager, meaning ''through the fields,'' evokes a kind of earthly, earthy hardship, and I was making my way to what was for me, and for the women whose footsteps I was retracing, a sacred place. I did not want to take my journey to such a site for granted. But still, nothing prepared me. Nothing could.

A Bay Ridge prep school that charges up to $32,000 in tuition has been socked with a $28 million lawsuit by the parents of an 11-year-old boy who they claim was roughed up by an administrator, and then expelled along with his two brothers in an act of revenge.
But school administrators responded by slapping the family with a counter $100,000 defamation suit, claiming that they're the ones who have been hurt.
The family alleges in a case filed in Brooklyn Supreme Court that Jon Barry Kablack, an assistant director at Adelphi Academy, grabbed the child in the school cafeteria on Feb. 7, leaving marks and bruises on his arm. The child's mother later notified cops, and Kablack was hauled in for questioning, but no charges were filed.
The parents' suit states that the victim and his brothers, 14 and 8, were later expelled — a move the family claims was retaliatory and not reflective of the children's school conduct.
Kablack and Adelphi were the ones out of order, according to family lawyer Bruce Baron.
"A teacher's hands should never be placed on a student's person," he said. "Should it occur, the school's fiduciary duty is medical and law enforcement intervention, not retaliation and cover up."
Private schools, unlike public schools, are not required by law to report alleged abuse to authorities, said a spokesman for the state's Department of Education.Reach reporter Colin MIxson at cmixson@cn

Week in Review

Notable quotables this week
Week in Review archive
Napster's offer this week to pay the record companies suing
it $1 billion to drop said suit was rejected by said companies in much the same
manner in which you or I might shoo a fly. Napster copyright infringement suit
plaintiff Sony Music Entertainment said the song-swapping site's offer to pay
$150 million a year in royalties "does not make sense" given that the industry
clears a cool $40 billion in sales annually (which could, actually, form the
basis of an argument that Napster isn't hurting the record industry at all,
but that's a discussion best left for a different week). So it looks as if the
Napster case will continue; in fact the judge hearing the case set a hearing
for Friday, March 2, to consider how to change her injunction against the company,
as ordered last week by an appeals court. The judge also appointed a mediator
to try to negotiate a settlement.
Big Brother goes thermal
The Supreme Court heard arguments on a nifty new technology
application dreamed up by those in the law enforcement community who aren't
busy catching criminals whose crimes might actually hurt somebody: the use of
thermal-imaging devices to find buildings emitting excessive heat. No, they're
not looking for people guilty of installing cheap insulation. They're looking
for grow lights, which are by-and-large used by people cultivating pot plants.
Clinton, Oracle avoid controversy . . . NOT!
Software giant Oracle probably thought former president
Bill Clinton's speech at its New Orleans convention this week would get some
positive media attention when the company booked it four months ago. But Clinton
can't do much these days without generating some controversy, and the Oracle
speech was no exception. He was given a standing ovation by 10,000 attendees,
and he spoke mostly about the central role he sees the Internet playing in the
country's economic growth. But a group calling itself Citizens Against Government
Waste wasted little time after the speech in accusing Clinton and Oracle of
impropriety. According to a Newsbytes report, the group argued that the company
was a prime instigator and main beneficiary of the Clinton Justice Department's
antitrust lawsuit against Microsoft.
Another week, another gross privacy violation
One wonders what Net filtering firm N2H2, maker of "Bess"
filtering software, was thinking when it decided to compile and sell to the
highest bidder lists of the Web sites children who use its service visit and
how much time they spend there. Did they really think privacy groups wouldn't
get upset? "Our business is protecting kids. We never would, never have, and
never will jeopardize anyone's privacy," N2H2 spokesman Allen Goldblatt
said in explaining why the company decided to stop selling information on the
private surfing habits of its customers. N2H2 acted after privacy groups complained,
calling the company a "corporate predator." Also angering the groups was the
Defense Department's plan to use the lists for recruiting purposes. The DOD
later had second thoughts. Added Goldblatt: "I think any time you have a great
public debate about privacy issues ... this is a good thing."
United eats online 'oops' fare
It's nice to see that somebody out there is willing to
step up and take responsibility for his screw-ups, however grudgingly. United
Airlines bit the bullet and agreed to honor too-good-to-be-true fares it says
were accidentally posted on its Web site last month because of a computer glitch.
Almost 150 people snatched up super-low fares, including a $24.98 San Francisco
to Paris steal.
The spy who hacked me
Give any big national story long enough play and a technology
angle will emerge. This week, former senior intelligence officials disclosed
that FBI agent and spy suspect Robert Hanssen hacked into the office computer
of the bureau's top Russian counterintelligence official in the early 1990s.
The suspected spy-turned-hacker said he was just trying to demonstrate how vulnerable
the system was. The hacking occurred at least seven years after authorities
charge that Hanssen began working for the Russians.
Tech mags feel the hurt
"The newsmagazine of the Internet economy"
er, The Industry Standard has joined many of the technology firms
it covers in announcing layoffs 69 to be exact, or 16% of its workforce.
Indeed, the tech slump that has rocked Silicon Valley is now hurting the magazines
that cover it. The Industry Standard has now laid off 22% of its workers
since Jan. 1. Competitor Business 2.0 said last week that it would lay
off 90 workers; Red Herring has laid off 54 since last fall; and Upside
has cut 30 workers since November.
'Potter' Web fans stick it to The Man
A bunch of kids who like the Harry Potter books so much
they've set up fan Web sites are getting a rude awakening to the world of hardball
copyright litigation: Warner Bros. has been sending them letters threatening
litigation if they don't shut down. Some are fighting back by organizing a boycott
of Harry Potter merchandise.

Tech Investor this week
Rally? What rally?
Just a few weeks ago, people were talking about the January
stock market rally. But late this week the Nasdaq hit a two-year low. Last year's
tech-led bear market is not only back, but it's uglier than ever. Investors
know that things in the technology sector are bad. But they might not know how
bad: Problems in the sector are so deep that experts are beginning to doubt
that things will improve by the third quarter.
Product story of the week
Apple introduces new iMacs, PowerMacs
Got financial problems? Introduce some funky new computers.
Hey, it worked before. Apple Computer, which is looking to revitalize sales
after posting a net loss of more than $245 million in its most recent fiscal
quarter, introduced juiced-up models of its iMac and PowerMac G4 Cube desktops
Thursday. Check it out: They're flowery! Will this tactic work? Stay tuned.
product news and reviews
'Get my computer game on the phone!'
OK, so you're sitting in your living room with a couple
of buddies, shooting the breeze, when your phone rings. Trying to be a big shot,
you hit the speakerphone button to impress them. "Oh, God, help me! They're
here!" a woman screams. "You have to help me. You've got to find out what
they want. They're going to kill me, I know it! They're ... they're ... ahhhhhhhh!"
The call cuts off. While you might enjoy the alarmed look on your friends' faces,
you're probably also enjoying the new online game Majestic, in which characters
phone, fax and e-mail players with clues.
Is there any problem
with buying a computer with an "integrated motherboard"? I've noticed they're
less expensive.
As you probably know, the motherboard is your PC's main circuit board through
which the computer's other basic components are connected. Your central processing
unit, memory and expansion ports are plugged into the motherboard. Integrated
motherboards are those motherboards that have certain features such as graphics
cards or sound cards built in. Computers with integrated motherboards are generally
less expensive than those with motherboards that have fewer built-in features.
However, your savings could cost you in terms of flexibility. An integrated
motherboard might not give you the upgrade options you'd get with one that doesn't
use built-in components. Because certain features are built into integrated
motherboards, you might run out of card slots to insert that new advanced graphics
card you were eyeing, for example. But if you don't plan to upgrade or fiddle
beneath your PC's hood, a computer with an integrated motherboard might be just
up your alley.
Q: What's the difference between
the confusing pro-forma accounting and reporting used by Amazon.com and
cash-flow reporting used by companies in the cable and casino industries?
Matt's answer:
Great question. Amazon.com, and a growing number of mostly
technology firms, are taking greater liberties with the practice of pro forma
accounting when reporting results in press releases. Rather than stressing net
income, which is "official" profitability as determined by accountants, some
companies are stripping out costs that get in the way. These results, which
sometimes make a company appear profitable when the company loses money, are
called pro forma results. Consider Interwoven, an Internet software company.
It reported "pro forma" profits of $2 million during the fourth quarter.
But on closer look, the company says that the $2 million gain comes if you don't
include "stock-based compensation and acquisition-related expenses." If you
include those costs, the company actually lost $19.9 million.
Don't get me wrong. Reporting pro forma results
isn't necessarily misleading. In fact, in some cases, pro forma reporting
makes things easier for investors by stripping away unusual costs (or income
items) that are unusual. And you're right, capital-intensive industries like
telecom (and even bottlers) will often report pro forma results. But
pro forma results, in these cases, are actually more informative to investors
because "official" earnings are masked by a large amount of asset depreciation
(which is a non-cash charge). Analysts are also willing to accept companies
stripping out non-cash charges resulting from goodwill (which arises when a
company buys another company for more than its book value). In fact, this charge
is soon to be abolished due to a tentative Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) rule expected to go into effect by the start of July. But the problem
starts when companies take the liberties allowed to push the envelope and use
pro forma as an excuse to leave out costs (or entire business models)
that get in the way. Network Associates is a great example. It goes so far as
to exclude the operations of its dot-com unit.
Notable quotables of the week
"(Napster's offer) does not make sense. ... Delivering their proposal
to the entire industry through the media is not a valid way to address our many
concerns. They have still not answered questions we have about a secure system
which prevents unauthorized trading, or about how they intend to create a business
model that respects the rights of record companies, artists and publishers."
Sony Music Entertainment, one of the four record labels
still suing online music-swapping service Napster, in a statement Wednesday
dismissing Napster's offer to pay the record industry $1 billion over five years
to settle the lawsuit.
"Privacy is predicated upon what someone can knowingly or unknowingly
expose, and once we're in the level of technology, people have no way of knowing
when they are voluntarily exposing something."
Kenneth Lerner, lawyer for Danny Lee Kyllo of Florence,
Ore., arguing before the Supreme Court this week that the use by police of a
thermal-imaging device to locate lights used to grow pot in Kyllo's home violated
his constitutional right against unreasonable searches.
"I know there have been a few dot-coms falling on the NASDAQ for the
last several months, but don't kid yourselves: The Internet is still our future."
Former president Bill Clinton in a speech at Oracle's
New Orleans convention.
"It really got me mad. (One girl) was afraid these lawyers would come
banging down her door and take away all her family's money. I was like, 'OK,
this has got to stop, now!' I've never liked seeing kids getting bullied. ...
They've scared the living daylights out of these kids. What are they going to
do to apologize?"
Heather Lawver, 16, of Reston, Va., a creator of a
Harry Potter fan Web site who organized a boycott of Potter merchandise
after Warner Bros. sent letters to fan site creators threatening them with litigation.

Patient Comments: Lupus - Symptoms
The symptoms of lupus can vary greatly from patient to patient. What were your symptoms at the onset of your disease?
Comment from: sfruth, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: February 28
My initial symptoms of lupus were swelling in my hands, finger joint overgrowth, stiffness and loss of mobility. About 8 months later I developed Raynaud's, and 1 1/2 years after the initial symptoms, developed photosensitivity. When I finally saw a rheumatologist, my ANA was highly elevated (1:1280) and my DS DNA was slightly elevated. While working in a hospital as a nurse, doctors I talked to about my symptoms did not think at all about autoimmune disease as the culprit.
Comment from: carolkirkoconnor@yah, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: January 13
I had fatigue for over years. I had to leave 2 jobs as I just could not keep up with a 40 hour work week. I am a registered nurse and was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and restless legs. Finally in 2012 I became confused when I had painful sores in my mouth. I ended up in 3 different hospitals before the lupus diagnosis. I ended up in the burn unit for the lesions and was hospitalized for 4 months and am in rehab for a month. I had lupus lesions in the brain and lupus cerebritis. I had 6 months of chemotherapy, now 2 years of oral chemotherapy and plaquenil. I still have fatigue, joint and muscle soreness. I am still disabled, but much better to have a diagnosis and a plan and a great, responsive and caring rheumatologist.
Comment from: Katsch, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: December 13
I have had symptoms for the last 10 years. The most dominant symptom is being sensitive to sunlight. I can't even drive or go outside without putting on sunscreen and wearing long sleeved shirts. I take extra vitamin D and use face cream with sunscreen all the time. My hair has thinned out, and my malar rash makes my face look like I have bright red blush on. I have lost control of my right hand from joint pain and muscle loss. I drop things all the time and have taught myself to be left handed. I can no longer pick up my 3 year old due to arthritis in my spine. My feet and hands swell all the time and the fatigue feeling hangs out all day. I have lupus, lupus does not have me. I may have to learn to do things different but life I will live.
Comment from: Marisimo, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: May 01
I"ve been diagnosed with lupus 4 months ago. My ANA is negative but I was confirmed with a skin biopsy. I have dry eyes, dry mouth, ulcers in mouth, pain in ankles, knee, toes, nail bed is red mostly all the time and mood swings. I"m on Plaquenil twice a day, hoping to improve and work full time but some days I feel I can"t do more.
Comment from: Mookie, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: March 26
My blood tests showed that my ANA was bad and my GFR was 53. What I was being seen for was restless leg syndrome (RLS) and sciatica which is so bad I can"t even sit, stand, lay down, do anything anymore because of the pain and jumping jerks of my legs. I"ve had tests and there"s no muscle damage and a little nerve damage on my left foot. The doctors also found that I was deficient in B12. I have these little pea like nodules in my legs especially on the inside of my calf under my knee. There"s no neuropathy and my legs turn bright cherry red and then swell from half way down my calf to my ankle and then other times it is fine. I"ve felt so bad for so long now that I need relief. My anxiety and depression are off the charts, my husband died 2 years ago and we were together for 43 years. My body will just ache all over like I have the flu and I walk bent over because I hurt so bad I just can"t do anything for days.
Comment from: dab215, 19-24 Female (Patient) Published: February 20
I strongly suspect I may have lupus. I am a 24 year old female. I have been seeing a doctor for costochondritis pain for well over a year and have pain in my knees, wrists, shoulders, hips, and, recently, my jaw. I also have extreme fatigue and vitamin D deficiency. I get terrible rashes (not a butterfly rash though). I lose a lot of hair daily. My doctor suspected rheumatoid arthritis at first, but my ANA was negative. My doctor is re-testing me tomorrow to see if there was any seroconversion going on, but other than that I"m lost.
Comment from: LuluLupus, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: February 06
I strongly believe I have lupus. I have present all the symptoms and after minor things surfaced over the years, this January 2014 it hit me like a brick. I have aches, pains in hands and knees, Raynaud's, headaches, fatigue like no tomorrow and anemia. My ANA is negative and I am nowhere at the moment. I'm seeking 2nd opinion.

Market Update: Casa Grande's Declining Inventory
The selection of inventory for buyers has declined. Those of you who are actively searching for a property are experiencing this – where you used to receive multiple emails a week with properties that fit for you, that activity may have slowed to maybe one email per week or less! This is because the number of new listings has been declining over the past year and has leveled out to a lower number of active listings per month. There were only 383 active listings for single family detached homes at the end of December 2011 – down from 587 listings in December 2010!
These numbers change even more drastically in certain price brackets, for example if we look at a price range of $75,000 to $125,000 there were only 161 active listings for sale at the end of December 2011 which is down from 258 in December of 2010. There isn't a shortage of qualified buyers either indicated by the blue and green bars on the same graph, which makes the competition for properties even stronger!

This is not required in Tennessee.
This is a discussion on Tennessee carry question about advising an officer? within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; In the state of Tennessee are you required by law to inform the officer that has stopped you that you are armed? I have heard ...
In the state of Tennessee are you required by law to inform the officer that has stopped you that you are armed? I have heard of states that by law you are not required to tell an officer that you are carrying a weapon. Is Tennessee one of those states?
"A coward dies a thousand deaths. But a man dies only once."
This is not required in Tennessee.
"First gallant South Carolina nobly made the stand."
Edge of Darkness
You are only required if the officer asks.
I believe your signature line should be "Cowards die many times before their deaths. The valiant never taste of death but once." from the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare.
It has been used by others in various configurations but from the little research I have done I believe Shakespeare was the first
Not a requirement in TN to notify.
For future reference Handgunlaw.us will answer questions like this for you.
Although not required, in order to not surprise the officer, I tend to make it a policy to advise.
Imagine if you will, your pulled over, your asked to get your papers which you have in your glovebox. In doing so, you have to bend which exposes your weapon, the officer having been shot at a couple days earlier is a bit jumpy and when you turn back, your being screamed at with the business end of a Glock in your face.
I dont like that thought, so I will kindly notify.
Sig P320 Subcompact 9mm
Ruger LCR 357sig
Ohio CHL since 1/29/2009
I've heard that some officers will say something like "keep it there and keep your hands on the wheel" while others will ask you to step out and disarm you once they have another officer arrive to assist.
I don't know if I like them disarming me. First of all I'm concealed and now ppl driving by can see I was armed. Second of all, I know some officers might not be too good with a gun and manipulating the slide might be a problem. I wouldn't want to get swept by a loaded weapon...
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.
-Thomas Jefferson
Laws are restrictive but sometimes necessary to maintain a civil society. Rights are nonrestrictive but are always necessary to maintain a free society.

You do not need to notify in TN unless asked. However your DL is tied to your carry permit and they know as soon as they run the DL. I have not been pulled over in years and if the officer seemed edgy I would most likely advise as the others have stated to do...ounce of prevention = pound of cure and could go a long way toward changing his/her mind about civilian carry if they are against it.
After reading many, many posts misusing the word your, maybe a short grammar lesson is in order ...
YOUR: possessive adjective
1 belonging to or associated with the person or people that the speaker is addressing : what is your name?
2 belonging to or associated with any person in general : the sight is enough to break your heart.
informal used to denote someone or something that is familiar or typical of its kind : I'm just your average Joe | she is one of your chatty types.
3 ( Your) used when addressing the holder of certain titles : Your Majesty | Your Eminence.
YOU'RE: contraction for YOU ARE
The two are NOT synonymous.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life. - Robert A. Heinlein
Proverbs 27:12 says: The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.

Who misused the word "your?"
"A coward dies a thousand deaths. But a man dies only once."
Although there is no duty to notify in Oregon your Concealed Handgun License and your Oregon Driver's License are linked together in the states computer system. So, if you are stopped by a LEO and he checks your license he will also know you have a CHL without you telling him.
Now you have a choice to make. Tell or not tell.

The origins of sickle-cell disease (SCD) are well understood, as are its evolutionary pressures on humans and pathological presentation. However, because it has not been possible to identify SCD in archaeological contexts, its biocultural effects on past populations are unknown. Previous research investigating oxygen isotope fractionation during respiration among anemics suggests that oxygen isotopes in bone apatite may provide a biological marker for SCD in skeletal remains. This pilot study reports δ18O ratios in bone apatite of transgenic laboratory mice expressing human SCD globins and compares them to healthy control mice. The δ18O ratios of sick mice are significantly lower than those of healthy mice (−5.6‰ vs. −4.5‰; P = 0.002), and the sickest mice exhibit the lowest ratios of all (mean δ18O = −5.8‰). These preliminary results suggest that this method may be usefully applied to skeletal materials of past human populations whose diets and water sources do not differ substantially.

Asia markets opened mixed on Thursday, ahead of another earnings-heavy day and the start of the Bank of Japan's policy meeting. » Read More
If the inflation forecast for fiscal 2016 is maintained around 2 percent, the Bank of Japan will likely keep rates steady at this stage, says Jonathan Cavenagh, senior FX strategist at Westpac.
Ben Collett, head of Asian Equities at Sunrise Brokers, says the Bank of Japan needs positive expectations that inflation can rise and a weaker yen, which could hit 250 per dollar in the long run.
Klaus Baader, head of Research for Asia at Societe Generale, says the Bank of Japan will need to admit that its inflation target has to be reduced at today's meeting, paving the way for more stimulus by the fourth quarter.
Ed Rogers, CEO of Rogers Investment Advisors, says the Bank of Japan can afford to wait and see amid wage increases and improvements in corporate profits.
Japan's already less-than-sterling credit rating took a hit from Fitch's downgrade, but its bonds and currency are set to stay impervious to the blow.
Joe Zidle, portfolio strategist at Richard Bernstein Advisors, says Tuesday's dismal retail sales will increase pressure on the Bank of Japan to introduce more stimulus, which is good for stocks.
The euro scaled a three-weak peak against the dollar on optimism about Greece's prospects after the government reshuffled its bailout team.
Hans Goetti, Head of Investment Asia at Banque Internationale à Luxembourg, says the decision to restart Japan's nuclear program is an unpopular but necessary decision for Prime Minister Abe.
Asian stocks mostly advanced on Thursday despite data showing China's factory activity at a one-year low.
Reports the Bank of Japan is preparing to lower its inflation outlook could push the yen to its lowest level in 13 years, analysts say.
If reports about the Bank of Japan planning to lower its inflation outlook are true, the yen could fall to 130-140 in the future, says Peter Boardman, managing director of Tradewinds.
Although Chinese companies may hold a lot of dollar debt, a Fed rate hike is unlikely to derail the Beijing-led economy, experts said.
Paul Gruenwald, chief economist, Asia Pacific at Standard and Poor's Ratings, says China may struggle to reach its 2015 growth target as the problem of oversupply persists.
Randall Jones, head of Japan and Korea Desk at OECD, says the Bank of Japan's quantitative and qualitative easing (QQE) program has worked to lift inflation expectations, but stresses the need to speed up reforms.
The dollar rose against the euro in a continuation of last week's bets that the Fed will hike interest rates in the coming months.
Chinese shares touched fresh seven-year highs on Monday, while Japan's Nikkei 225 struggled to find momentum.
David Roche, global strategist at Independent Strategy, says the Bank of Japan will have to roll out further easing in the second-half of 2015, but warns of risks from the central bank's ballooning balance sheet.
Asian stocks were higher across the board on Wednesday, with Tokyo, Seoul and mainland markets hitting fresh highs.
Marcel Thieliant, global economist at Capital Economics, thinks the Bank of Japan "will have to step up the pace of easing soon."
The Economist Intelligence Unit CEO Robin Bew says Japanese reforms have fallen short of changing the country's profit growth and employment story

Easy turkey pot pie recipe needed please
Team green turned pink! DD 10/14/13
Comments (4)
Roll out a package of crescent roll dough on the bottom of a greased glass 9x13 pan bake at temp indicated on package but only until dough starts to puff up, then remove. Mix together your turkey (I usually do 2 large chicken breasts, cooked and diced) with vegetables (I use 2 cans mixed veggies plus a small can of sweet corn because I like a lot of corn in mine) with 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1 can prepared chicken gravy (sometimes I add another 1/2 can of cream of chicken but usually not necessary). Spread evenly over crescent and bake 15-20 mins to heat. Roll a second crescent dough over the top of filling and bake until golden. Let it sit for 10-15 before cutting into it.

2 1/2 to 3 cups cut-up cooked chicken or turkey
pastry for 9-inch two-crust pie
1 Rinse peas and carrots in cold water to separate; drain
2 Melt butter in 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour, onion, salt, and pepper.Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in broth and milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir one minute. stir in chicken and peas and carrots; remove from heat
3 Heat oven to 425*
4 Prepare pastry ( I use the kind in the refrigerator section) I use a 9-inch deep dish pie pan, lay one pastry in the dish add chicken /turkey mixture, top with other crust; crimp edges and cut slits in top.
5 Bake about 35 minutes or until golden brown
I'd like to be the ideal mother, but I'm to busy raising my kids!
2-3 shredded chicken breasts
1 big bag frozen mixed veggies
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 1/2 cups self rising flour
1 stick butter (melted)
1-2 cups chicken broth
Spread chicken in bottom of greased casserole dish. Mix veggies, soup and water and spread over top. Mix melted butter, buttermilk and self rising flour and spread over veggies. Pour chicken broth over top. (I use about 1 1/2. You just have to kinda eyeball it).
Bake at 350 for 1-1 1/2 hours

The easiest Pot Pie receipe I have. And we all LOVE it
2 cups cooked chicken (or turkey)
1 bag california veggies
2-3 cans Cream soup (I like to use cream of mushroom personally)
2-3 boxes of Stuffing mix
Mix the first 3 ingredients together, layer the prepared stuffing on top. Bake in the oven until Brown. The amount of stuffing is up to you. We like lots of it so always use 3 boxes. If you don't want the stuffing version you could use double pie shell and have a crust layer on the bottom and cover with the second crust.

Did the White House do enough in Libya?
E-mail suggests communications breakdown during attack
E-mail suggests communications breakdown during attack
Jim W: It just amazes me how many people are willing to overlook proven crimes, deceit and years of lies from Hillary Clinton. They listen to a media that sugar coats all of her underhanded dealings and corruption if they mention them at all. Every time the Democrats get caught in one of their scandals they make up wild stories how it's someone else's fault, how they are being picked on. They are believed by people who are either to blind, weak minded, or to scared to realize the truth. Remember, when you cause this country to fall, you will not be spared. They care nothing about you, only their own power gains. You will be left to fend for yourselves under an elite tyrannical government just like everyone else. Hope you enjoy the ride...

GM/Cerberus talks over full ownership of GMAC
It's been a crazy few days as news broke that Chrysler and General Motors have been in talks to combine operations. It turns out that there's a pretty significant back-story to these proceedings, and it involves Cerberus Capital Management's possible desire to shed its car-building operations and acquire the rest of GMAC, of which it already holds a controlling stake of 51%, with GM holding holding the other 49%. According to reports, Cerberus would like to combine Chrysler Financial with GMAC, which would allow it to merge the offices of the two financial institutions and reduce costs. All right, that might make some sense, but what about merging the two automakers? That's the part that seems so confusing to analysts and us meager bloggers. Somehow, we feel certain that there's more to this story, which we'll be hearing about for some time.

Costa Mesa, California - Costa Mesa Tennis Center - Ranked No. 11 in the first regular season NAIA women's tennis poll of the year, Vanguard University hosted NCAA Division II CSU Los Angeles for a nonconference matchup at the Costa Mesa Tennis Center, VU's home court. Playing for the second time in two days, the Lions fell short as the CSULA Golden Eagles knocked off the Lions 8-1.
Cal State LA stormed quickly to 8-2 victories in the first two doubles matchups in the lineup. VU's Petronella Lindahl and Ashley Tebeau put up a strong fight, but eventually lost 9-8 in the final doubles contest, giving the Golden Eagles a 3-0 sweep and a three-point lead.
Singles play was also controlled by the Golden Eagles. CSULA earned straight set victories in the second, third, and fourth challenges to officially clinch the match. However, senior Ashley Tebeau continued to battle at number six as long as she could before losing in three sets (7-6(4), 1-6, and 10-5. Trailing 7-0, the Lions finally broke the shutout in the final singles match still ongoing. VU's top singles player Gabriela Bergmanova outlasted Christie Lau 6-3 and 7-5 to bring the final score to 8-1.
The Lions slip to 2-3 overall with today's loss, but will be right back in action tomorrow with another nonconference matchup. The Lions welcome NCAA Division II UC San Diego for an early afternoon battle at the Costa Mesa Tennis Center.

I haven't figured out the rule for how far off, but they're always off by a consistent amount. I've manually adjusted the count to see if that helps but if I add more att. tags it reverts to a (new) bad count. So nothing is wrong with saving the number to the database, just the calculation of that number. I have a high number of attachments with tags (2000+) so I'm wondering if this is the issue.
It only affects areas that directly call the 'count' value from
term_taxonomy. On the Att. Tags page, for instance, the correct count is listed in the attachments column.
If there's any more diagnostic information I could give, I'd be happy to help.

February 18, 2014 | 03:16 PM
— An anti-abortion group claims the Walworth County Fair is unfairly prohibiting them from having a booth at next year's weeklong event and is threatening to settle the issue in court.
Peter's Net, based in Illinois, has a mission to "evangelize county fair patrons concerning the Catholic faith." The group has booths at a number of fairs in both Wisconsin and Illinois.
"Examples of Catholic visual information available to interested fairgoers include display presentations of the sacraments, the Church's pro-life teaching, the Nicene Creed and the papacy," a letter to the fair states. "Also visually displayed are crucifixes, rosaries, holy cards, pictures of Mary and the saints, and other emblems of the Catholic faith."
The group had a booth at the 2013 fair but has been denied a space for 2014, according to a letter the group sent to the fair.
In a letter to the fair foundation, the group acknowledges that it did receive a complaint from a fair patron for its anti-abortion stance. The complaint stems from an incident where a 7-year-old boy was given a plastic toy of an 11-to-12 week-old unborn baby.
The boy's mother was upset that someone from the booth gave her child the toy, and she complained to officials at the fair. The woman also complained to volunteers at the Peter's Net booth.
The Lake Geneva Regional News contacted a fair official, who said at this time the fair has no comment.
Peter's Net is being represented by the Thomas More Society, which "is a not-for-profit, national public interest law firm that exists to restore respect in law for life, marriage and religious liberty," according to its website. "Based in Chicago, the Thomas More Society defends and fosters support for these causes by providing high quality pro bono legal services from local trial courts all the way to the United States Supreme Court."
The local legal counsel is Jerome Buting of Brookfield. An attempt to reach Buting was made on Monday, but he didn't return calls by Regional News deadline.
The letter sent to the fair states that if Peter's Net didn't hear from the fair by Feb. 12, "we will proceed accordingly."
Peter's Net vs. Walworth County Fair
In 2013, Peter's Net applied to have a booth at the Walworth County Fair, but was initially denied, according to the group's letter to the fair. After being rejected, Peter's Net informed the fair it would pursue legal action. The group's application was ultimately accepted.
After the fair, a fair staffer spoke to members of Peter's Net and informed them that they wouldn't be allowed back at next year's fair.
They were given three reasons:
n A long-time exhibitor didn't attend the 2013 fair because he was ill. Fair officials said he might want to have his booth in 2014.
n The fair received negative comments about the booth.
n The fetal exhibit was also labeled a problem. A similar exhibit was available at the booth for the Pregnancy Hot Line. The fair has a right to prevent duplication.
"We believe these reasons are unpersuasive and pretextual," Buting's letter states. "The real motivation for the fair's actions against Peter's Net was its religious speech."
After receiving the parent complaint, a fair staffer went to the booth to review prizes that were given to children.
The employee told the booth volunteers that she was looking for the "baby in a bag" toy.
Booth volunteers said that this was only given to adults or to children with parent's permission.
"After examining the so-called "baby in a bag," (the fair staffer) told (the booth volunteer) that she would not allow her to disseminate it except to persons over 18 years of age," Buting's letter states. "Booth volunteers could give the 'baby in a bag' to patrons under 18 only if they verified that the person who was granting permission was an actual parent or that the person who wanted the baby model was over the age of 18. This was insulting to patrons and burdensome to Peter's Net."
The parent whose child was given the 'baby in the bag' visited the booth on Aug. 31. The woman yelled at the booth volunteers and said that the volunteers "ruined her son's life."
The woman said the fair promised her that they would not be allowed to return. She reportedly yelled, "I got you kicked out."

text: J-Vek aka Vex Luthor is in love with rhyme, he feels that it is the most perfect form of communication in any language. As a youngster Vex usually could be found listening to just about any rap song starting from the early 80's..."wreckless" a song which featured dj Glove and Ice T was pretty much the kick starting point for his love to mince words. In 1998 he began recording songs on a computer with nothing more than a desk mic and a pair of headphones from a portable cd player before he entered the world of condenser and large diaphram microphones plus the ability to make beats using an M.P.C. he has not only listened to but has studied rap from a very young age and sometimes you can still find him cruising around listening to rap tunes with no other destination than to waste gas showing that he too like Tupac has the "Ambitionz as a Ridah"
