Dyspeptic Mutterings
Classic Put Down
Dale Price at Dyspeptic Mutterings gives a classic response to a critic of his article, go here to read it, at One Peter Five on the Pope who didn't like Catholicism:
There's something purported to be a rebuttal of the 1P5 piece out there.
Here's the summary of the…effort:
No, really–that's the intellectual integrity of it in a nutshell. Unable to rebut facts, he tries to punch up. For me, the only part that merits a response is where the fraud in question accuses me of suggesting that the pope should be subjected to violence.
Yes, seriously.
My response? I'll let Tommy Lee Jones answer for me.
Dissolving Catholicism
I am so glad that Dale Price is once again regularly blogging at his blog Dyspeptic Mutterings, since my motto has always been to
steal borrow from the best!
A useful short history of the king's water can be found here.
Since 1965, Catholicism has had its own version of aqua regia, and the Church has been guzzling it. It's called ecumenism, but it has gone well beyond rational discussion to a positive hysteria–ecumania, if you will. And it appears to have made ecumaniacs of the USCCB, what with their recommendation for expanded intercommunion.
Sounds positively ecumaniacal, in fact. A better dissolver of Catholic teaching you will not find.
Look, those close to me and my handful of devoted readers know I'm a convert from mainline Protestantism. I wasn't practicing much before I converted. Honestly, if a Religion Detector Monitor had existed and I'd been hooked up to it, it probably would have read "Deist with a healthy measure of appreciation for Christendom and the Bible."
I like to think that I've spent the last sixteen years becoming a somewhat useful disciple of Christ in His Catholic Church. Lord knows, I've had my spiritual bumps on the way, and my worldview has shifted from 1999–in some ways, radically.
And my beloved wife and I have had some less than smooth sailing. We dropped her income when we had our second. And then our third came along–three kids in three calendar years plus 10 days. We've been crammed seven of us into 880 square feet with no basement or garage–that back in 2010. My car is older than all our kids. We've had other financial turbulence I'd rather not discuss.
Still, discipleship costs. I can accept that.
And then I read that we really need to share the Eucharist with the titular Evangelical Lutherans (as opposed to, say, the evangelical Lutherans in the Missouri Synod–from whom the late Fr. Neuhaus sprang). Despite the fact that, you know, they don't believe in all that Catholic crap.
Huh. But, apparently, that's not enough to deny the source and summit of the Christian life, the sacrament of Catholic unity, to members of an ecclesial community which is drifting further away from us in oh-so-many-ways.
The ELCA says that abortion is often a "morally responsible choice." And while it claims to frown on abortions after "fetal viability," baby-killing Doctor George Tiller was a member in good standing of the ELCA, as the church website solemnly notes. [And don't even try to jump into my face suggesting I'm happy with Tiller's murder. WRONG.] Yeah–can't wait to gather around the alt–er, table and sing Kumbaya.
But, we must march ahead. Forward, forward–-always forward, eh, yes? No.
I mean, really–communion with the ELCA immerses Catholic witness in a vat of aqua regia, turning her gold into powder. On what basis do we require anyone to hold to the Catholic faith–much less to be properly disposed–before approaching the altar?
If you have a daughter undergoing first communion prep, why does she have to go to confession before receiving when the Lutherans do not?
Or, more topically: Lutherans remarried after divorce: come on down for this moving ecumenical moment!
Catholics–not so fast! Continue reading
The Deadliest Storm
One hundred years since a hurricane struck the Great Lakes in November 1913. Dale Price at Dyspeptic Mutterings gives us the details:
The deadliest storm ever to strike the Great Lakes began a century ago today. Here's my post from last year about it.
Here is the list of all the ships wrecked in the storm.
PopeWatch: Liberal Christianity
Dale Price at Dyspeptic mutterings has an interesting series in which he discusses the problems he has with Pope Francis. The problems PopeWatch believes boil down to a concern that Pope Francis may turn out to be an advocate of Liberal Christianity, that place where Christianity goes to die:
He was a beloved itinerant shepherd who lived simply, residing in a single spartan room when he wasn't visiting the flock. Known for his humility and down-to-earth speaking style, he was deeply beloved by Catholics and non-Catholics alike. He emphasized ecumenism to an unprecedented degree, and believed that the Second Vatican Council was the watershed event in Catholic history. He encouraged modern biblical study, presenting historical-critical hypotheses from the pulpit, chided Catholics who "looked backward" to older ways, and urged the embrace of dynamic change.
His name was Kenneth Untener, and he was the bishop of Saginaw from 1980 until his death in 2004. The parishes in his domain were my first experience with progressive Catholicism, and they stirred and shaped my–there is no other word for it–hostility to the entire progressive religious project. Now, let me clarify one thing here: there is a distinction between religious progressivism and the political version. For my part, I think one can be a devout Catholic and support what are generally regarded as progressive political policies. The late, great Robert Casey, Sr. of Pennsylvania (but not his wayward, sail-trimming fraud of a son) embodied this possibility–and did so well. But, as with Catholics who align toward the right side of the spectrum, if you're doing your faith right, you will inevitably conflict with certain political shibboleths of your non-Catholic brothers in arms. Or at least you'd better. And it is clear that getting your hands dirty living and working with the poor, a la Catholic Worker, is wholly, utterly and unimpeachably Catholic.
These are to be distinguished from religious progressivism, which is diagnosed comprehensively here. It is always and everywhere bad news. Which is not to say that people who hold modernist views are to be treated like bad news–they shouldn't. But you have your work cut out, no question. The contemporary flavor of modernism is fond of emotivism and is less susceptible to, or even interested in, logical argument. And if they're in power, buckle up and heads to the storm. Continue reading
PopeWatch: Circling the Wagons
Dale Price at Dyspeptic Mutterings, continues on with his observations regarding the reactions to Pope Francis. I was struck by this section of his latest post:
I've come to the conclusion that, regardless of the actual temporal length (and may God grant Pope Francis many healthy years), this is going to be a loooooong papacy.
1. The first problem is what my crisis buddy Elliot colorfully describes as "soft ultramontanism." To which I will add "by reflex."
This manifests itself in instant circle-the-wagons mentality against any criticism. Sorry, Mark, but this is emblematic. The fact that Scalfari didn't take notes is majoring in minors. No less an authority than the Vatican itself offers the interview for perusal on the official website.
That strikes me as a sotto voce endorsement of its accuracy. Not very sotto, in fact. More like a megaphone admission.
Also, it seems to me that criticism from such respectable non-fringe figures as Fr. Germain Grisez, fellow Jesuit James Schall and the very level-headed Carl Olson deserve a hearing. Ditto Robert Royal, who was clearly thrown by the first interview.
In other words, those who "get Francis" need to try to understand those of us who don't. And, yeah, I don't.
Frankly, the most evident fruit of the papacy thus far seems to be the willingness of orthodox Catholics to break out the cutlery and start stabbing whenever someone expresses unease over the Pope's actions and words.
2. The substantive criticisms are worthy of consideration.
Arguments like "the Pope is acting just like Jesus" or "you're just like the elder brother in the Prodigal Son!" aren't really arguments: they're declarations of the speaker's moral superiority, QEDs that are supposed to batter the benighted sinner on the other side into repentance. Quite simply, they won't do. Continue reading
Dale Price Explains Why I Am Worried
My friend Dale Price at his blog Dyspeptic Mutterings has often supplied me with blogging ideas that I have
stolen borrowed. Unfortunately he hasn't been blogging much lately. That was broken with a post on Pope Francis which sums up many of the reactions I have been having:
In which I exile myself from polite company and retreat to the margins of Catholic society.
This is basically how I feel. Like the person Sutherland is pointing at the end of Invasion. Essentially, the Catholic world I know has been seized by body snatchers and is about to notice that I am not lining up to board the F1 to the Promised Land.
Yes, this is about the interview. Quick summary of my reaction: some very good parts, some easily-soundbitten ammo I can expect to see all over the place, but is still explicable in terms of preaching the Gospel, and a disastrous, giant ticking nuke about to blow us back to the Church of the 1970s.
The Interview Was Candy Mountain Awesome, Charlie! Everyone agrees–it was full of candy, and joy, and joyness! You don't believe that?
Yeah, well, I can live with that. Hier stehe ich. Ich kann nicht anders.
[Just to make the inevitable scream of "That's unclean Protestant talk!" a little easier.]
As I see it, there are three serious problems, two of which are related to how it's being received and processed, and the third is the nuke.
Problem 1: We Are All Ultramontaines Now.
Including–nay, especially!–people who have spent a generation ignoring, deriding or spinning away every encyclical, apostolic letter and motu proprio that flowed forth from the pens of John Paul II and Benedict XVI.
As an aside, it's good to see the Jesuits at America released from the dungeons after the long night of Benedict the Destroyer. The shackle chafe marks being no doubt hidden under the long sleeves. Some advice: sunlight and a vitamin regimen will banish the sallow complexions.
What the right's deal is, I don't know. The Pope Says We Must Re-Balance, So We Must Re-Balance. It smacks too much of a new CEO coming in, and everyone having to get with the program. At a minimum, it's a feverish celebration that has no parallels with how it received Benedict, which was more defensive and apologetic, and less effusive in its praise.
The fact both are united in swoonery suggests that one or the other is missing something. And someone is, as we shall see in Problem 3. Continue reading
Tell Us How You Really Feel Dale!
My friend Dale Price writes insightful posts at his blog Dyspeptic Mutterings. I stop by there regularly to
steal borrow blog ideas. Dale is always very good, but when he lets himself go he is magnificent. Herewith is his post on the scape goating anti-NRA hysteria that some on Saint Blogs have been participating in:
Being marginalized in the culture war.
You see, I'm an NRA member. I do not own a Bushmaster, or any other semi-automatic weapon. As is my wife. I–and Heather–collectively own several firearms. Including–as will be set forth below–a completely-legal, bona-fide military weapon currently used by our military right now. Unlike what [damnatio memoriae] used at Newtown.
Dyspeptic Mutterings
I am happy to see that Dale Price has resumed blogging regularly at his Dyspeptic Mutterings. I stop by every day to read some of the wittiest blog writing on the internet. Here is a recent sample:
I am building a giant cybernetic war badger in my basement.
I love the music of Marty Haugen.
I am receiving locutions from Krishna.
I think Obama is the only permissible electoral choice for Catholics in 2012.
I don't think women should ever wear pants or breastfeed in public.
OK–they can do the latter if they're wearing only pants.
Janeway is way better than Kirk and Picard combined.
The Dallas Cowboys are going to win the next three Super Bowls.
Or the Washington Redskins–whichever you hate more.
Yes, that outfit makes your ass look fat.
The best Stooge was Shemp.
Only Anglican orders are valid.
–I mean, seriously–is this thing on? Traffic is allegedly going up, but I'm feeling like a performance artist here. Continue reading
The Church in America: Low Grade Civil War
Dale Price over at Dyspeptic Mutterings is being brilliant again:
Fr. Thomas Massaro would like you all to calm down.
I'm not going to fisk this, because it's an admirable sentiment, as far as it goes. Which means it stagged a step or two before dropping in a messy heap.
Yes, it would be nice if things in the world were more civil and respectful. That's fine.
But the problem with his call for civility is that he sees the white-hot anger as the problem rather than the symptom. It's not–the real problem goes far, far deeper than that, and has been savaging the Body of Christ for decades now.
The HHS mandate is just the catalyst causing it to explode to the surface.
The real problem is that the Church in America has fractured into at least two churches. If it hadn't been this issue, it would have been a dispute over the language of the liturgy, or the latest pronouncement from the Vatican, some university conferring honors on someone who is an open enemy of Catholic teaching or even the renovation of the local cathedral church. The struggle–more bluntly, low-grade civil war–between the churches has been going on since the last bit of incense dispersed at Vatican II. We don't agree on how to worship, what our schools should teach, what laws should be enacted/opposed, what canons apply and when or even what our parish church should look like. In fact, we can't even agree on whether or not Jesus actually rose from the dead.
And for forty five years, our shepherds have been trying to keep it together by careful tacking, including soothing rhetoric, trying to give everyone half a loaf or so (depending on the year, bishop and constituency) and generally trying not to see the coal pile in the ballroom. Continue reading
Dyspeptic Mutterings
My friend Dale Price is posting again regularly at his blog Dyspeptic Mutterings after something of a hiatus. Go here to have a gander at his blog. Dale has long written some of the sharpest commentary on Saint Blog's. I stop in every day looking for blogging topics to
steal borrow, and I rejoice that he is writing frequently again.
Gutless Wonders, Petty Tyrants and Chancery Dwellers.
For years I have read daily Ten Reasons, a blog run by Rich Leonardi. Orthodox and well written, Ten Reasons was always illuminating and well worth reading. Now Rich has shut down his blog. The reason why he did so has me so angry that I am afraid that I cannot do a post on the subject using only language fit for a family blog. Instead, here is what the ever eloquent Dale Price had to say about this at Dyspeptic Mutterings:
Gutless wonders, petty tyrants and chancery dwellers.
But I repeat myself. Yes, I know there are good folks laboring in the bureaucratic halls of the Church–this isn't directed at you. As for the rest of you…
The rector of the Cincinnati seminary managed to successfully retaliate against Rich Leonardi, long-time Catholic blogger extraordinaire and pointed, but usually civil, critic of the manifold problems of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
Rich was booted off the Son Rise Morning Show in retaliation for his criticism.
Here's the message he sent me in response to a query on Facebook:
To net it out, the seminary rector reached out to the head of the Son Rise Morning Show to have me thrown off the program. I called him out on it, and a pissing contest ensued. I shut down my site and intend to withdraw from public Catholic life.
In the meantime, Ken Overberg will continue to deny the Atonement from the pulpit, and Paul Knitter will air his doubts about the salvific significance of Christ and the historicity of the Resurrection, both undisturbed in the sanctuary of Xavier University. Because doing something about *them* would take a set of clockweights, the willingness to endure media hostility and the turning of a deaf ear to the squalling of local progressives.
Squashing a layman who criticizes the local leadership? You can do that in a snap and still have plenty of time to enjoy a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon with lunch. To applause from "the right people," to boot.

I am OpenGL developer. Through my career as programmer I coded mostly with compiled and strictly typed languages. Being curious about WebGL I tried coding with JavaScript. I don't really like the language and its design : loosely typed, lack of proper OOP and hard to debug.Now, I am here not to argue on JavaScript weakness but looking for other ways of doing the same. I looked for alternatives which would be closer to C++ or Java and found GWT GL wrapper and also DART language. Are there any downsides using these instead of JavaScript?
For example:
Is DART mature enough to use in commercial needs?
GWT wrapper performance vs "raw" JavaScript?
Also would appreciate additional info on working with WebGL without JavaScript.

Out of Print
"A model detective story...Fascinating."
--New York Times
The great Dorothy L. Sayers is considered by many to be the premier detective novelist of the Golden Age, and her dashing sleuth, Lord Peter Wimsey, one of mystery fiction's most enduring and endearing protagonists. Acclaimed author Ruth Rendell has expressed her admiration for Sayers's work, praising her "great fertility of invention, ingenuity, and wonderful eye for detail." The Dorothy L. Sayers classic, Strong Poison, is now back in print with an introduction by Elizabeth George, herself a crime fiction master. In Strong Poison, Sayers introduces Harriet Vane, a mystery writer who is accused of poisoning her fiancE and must now join forces with Lord Peter to escape a murder conviction and the hangman's noose.
About the Author
Dorothy L. Sayers was an English writer, translator, and Christian humanist. Best known for the extremely popular Lord Peter Wimsey mystery series, Sayers also penned a number of plays, including The Man Born to Be King, essays, and translations, of which she considered Dante s Divine Comedy to be her best. Sayers died in 1950, and is buried in St. Anne s Church in London.

Studio Barse 14" Collar Necklace
Overview & Details
- Due to air and skin contact, a natural patina may form on bronze jewelry over time. This characteristic contributes to the beauty and uniqueness of each piece.
Studio Barse 14" Collar Necklace
Nice neck piece.
This is a nice piece for the money. Looks like rose gold and if you just want a neck piece it would be great. You can also put a pendant on it and the curved back keeps the pendant from sliding off easily.Lynniebabe, TX
Great price
Got this at a great price and its very pretty. Hope the finish holds upWVK9Clipper, WV
Nice copper collar!
I ordered 2 of these collars, one for me and one for a grand daughter. I figured ifit didn't fit I would give it away. I measured my neck and it came in around 15 & 1/2 inches. Much to my surprise, the collar fit just fine! Now, it would be nice to see some copper pendants!??ishop4me, NV
Great buy
I purchased this on clearance thinking that a 14" collar would not fit me. Well, it fit and I really like it and really like the copper.Debra1953, WV
Nice shine
For the price it is worth it. But wouldn't pay more. Looks nice. But looks even better on my daughter who is in her 20's. Edgy.fefifofum, OR
perfect touch when all you want is something simple ....bends easily to fit your neckanubus666, NV
Expecting it to be extremely plan and a bit awkward on the neck. Totally surprised! I get the benefit of copper, the shine is exquisite, with or without a pendant this piece is an added addition to any neckline. Simply beautiful!Melody1980, CA
Casual and Classic Neckwear
Nice value and appearance rather than costly gold or silver. Barse has quality products. This is the third Barse product that I've purchased. I would say the copper is not overly orange. I was glad to see that. There is a nice shine and it easily bends to the form you want around your neck.JanD721, PA
So Graceful
This collar is so very graceful on. It sits well, does not turn if you hang a pendant on it, even looks gorgeous from the back when I put my hair up- the curved ends terminate it beautifully. Be a bit careful putting it on and removing it- the metal is very soft. If you yank on it, you could bend it- just apply light, balanced pressure to expand it, then push it gently back in around your neck. So glad I went for this beauty.SFChick, CAWas this review helpful?
Love it!sade491, TX

Great plugin for my church web!
I want to allow front-end posting to visitors. Only administrator can access back-end and admin tool bar. This is suitable for my purpose but I need two additional points as follows;
1) Restrict category for visitor to post-> show only allowed category in dropdown list.
2) Status will be "published" immediately-> Can hide "draft" at setting but how can I hide "pending review"? Just want to show "published" only or hide completely.
Thanks for kind advice in advance,

The perfect shot is hard to make, so the need to track your game once it's been hit is a reality for most hunters. The telltale sign is blood on the ground but, given dawn or dusk lighting, tracking blood on the ground is easier said than done. That's why Gerber worked with hunters and engineers to develop the Myth Blood Tracking Light.
I would like to try this. Tracked a lot of deer through some helpless trails and rainy nights. Would like to try anything that would make recovery easier.

Hi Alex,
I have a new install of Twitter Tools on http://www.stayingurgaon.com. It worked seamlessly for a while, however I noticed today that it is not refreshing the tweets via shortcode ([aktt_tweets account="stayingurgaon"]) that I have installed in the footer of my theme.
The tweets, however, are visible under the Tweets tab in admin. Would you know what could have gone wrong?
Many thanks in advance.

With a REST API I can receive a response in XML or in JSON. This can be done using PHP or Javascript (using jQuery) for example.
I want to know the advantages and the disadvantages of the different languages. This is what I figured out so far:
- PHP seems easier than JavaScript when data needs to be used on the server side for later.
- JavaScript runs on the client side and does not make a load on the server when fetching data with external URLs

Wisconsin State Fair attendance tops a million, most since 1969
Beautiful weather drew record-breaking crowds of more than a million fairgoers to the Wisconsin State Fair this year, numbers that may be a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence, fair officials said.
The 11-day event attracted 1,012,552 attendees, and even weekdays saw as many as 122,000 guests. Total attendance was 10% higher than last year and the largest reported since 1969 — though the fair only started scanning tickets in 2002, which gives the most accurate numbers. »Read Full Article(14)
Even in pink, Miranda Lambert as fiery as she wants to be
For years, Miranda Lambert was country music's female underdog.
While Carrie Underwood was an "American Idol" champion and quickly became the genre's glamorous queen, Lambert was a third-place finisher on cable TV's "Nashville Star" who preferred faded jeans to flowing gowns. Taylor Swift was the sweetheart-next door-turned worldwide pop star, while Lambert was the rough-edged spitfire — famous in her small town for all the wrong reasons. »Read Full Article

APT's 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern' turns 'Hamlet' inside out
SpringGreen — Imagine having never heard of "Hamlet" and then unexpectedly becoming a small-time player in its tangled plot. Or, if you'd prefer, imagine a typical week in your own harried existence, in which you're constantly being made aware of how utterly random life can be — and how little control you really have.
It's all the same to Tom Stoppard, whose "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" fuses the Bard and Beckett in a comic and also moving commentary on modern life. Under James Bohnen's direction, we're being treated to the comedy and the pathos in a stellar production at American Players Theatre, with actors in the same roles they've assumed in APT's "Hamlet." »Read Full Article(3)

For a random (column) vector $\mathbf Z$ with mean vector $\mathbf{m} = E[\mathbf{Z}]$, the covariance matrix is defined as $\operatorname{cov}(\mathbf{Z}) = E[(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})^T]$. Thus, the covariance matrix of $A\mathbf{Z}$, whose mean vector is $A\mathbf{m}$, is given by $$\begin{align}\operatorname{cov}(A\mathbf{Z}) &= E[(A\mathbf{Z}-A\mathbf{m})(A\mathbf{Z}-A\mathbf{m})^T]\\ &= E[A(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})^TA^T]\\ &= AE[(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})(\mathbf{Z}-\mathbf{m})^T]A^T\\ &= A\operatorname{cov}(\mathbf{Z})A^T. \end{align}$$

text: The new book, "How to Get Your Husband to Go to Church with You" is a powerful scripture filled tool to all who are "unequally yoked." This work moves quickly through spiritual steps necessary to help their partner's lives change in such a way that they become a willing and active part of the body of Christ. Though targeted at the large audience of women who attend church without their husbands, it is also an essential read for married Christian men going to church without their wives and singles considering marriage. The writer apparently has an excellent Biblical foundation and understands how to use the spiritual tools God has given his people to overcome this very difficult issue. This book would also be a great asset for pastors and Christian marriage counselors in that it provides considerable insight from one who has had victory in this area. --E. M.

Phenobarbital is an anticonvulsant drug that has been used since 1912 and it is still one of the better drugs for this purpose. Phenobarbital is used to treat infants (ages 0-1 year) with any type of seizure disorder, and other children with generalized, partial or febrile seizures. It is also used for treatment of status epilepticus (seizures lasting greater than 15 minutes).
- Formulations:
- Phenobarbital is available in the following formulations:
- 20 mg/5 ml liquid suspension
- 15 mg tablets
- 30 mg tablets
- 60 mg tablets
- 100 mg tablets
- Dosage:
- The usual dosage of Phenobarbital is 3-6 mg per kilogram of body weight per day.
- Therapeutic Blood Levels:
- The blood level of Phenobarbital that is found to prevent seizures in most people is between 10-40µg/ml.
- Side Effects:
- Some children taking Phenobarbital will experience behavior changes, including irritability, hyperactivity and/or sleep disturbances. The previously "busy" child who "never stops" may become more agitated and overactive while taking this drug. In some instances, these personality changes are temporary and diminish after a few days to a couple of weeks. In others, they persist until the drug is stopped. If the child's behavior becomes a significant problem when phenobarbital is begun, then a different anticonvulsant will be considered.
- A small percentage of children are "allergic" to phenobarbital. Children with an allergy to Phenobarbital will develop a skin rash 7-20 days after they begin taking the drug. This type of reaction usually requires immediate discontinuation of the drug and evaluation by a physician.
- Toxic symptoms are symptoms experienced when the blood Phenobarbital level is too high. Early toxic symptoms may include staggering, drowsiness, or slurred speech.
- Common Labs:
- Scheduled monitoring of Phenobarbital levels has increased its safety and efficacy. We will usually recommend checking a Phenobarbital level 4 weeks after reaching a therapeutic dose and then every 4-12 months thereafter.
- Drug Interactions:
- Phenobarbital does affectthe metabolism or absorption of some medications, most of which are not commonly taken in childhood. You should inform your Neurologist if your child is taking any other medications. Your local pharmacist can often be helpful in informing you of known drug interactions between the medications your child is taking.

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand

text: Clorox Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. Clorox ( CLX) is the firm behind brands such as Glad, Hidden Valley and Brita, in addition to the firm's household-name bleach products. That positioning makes Clorox one of the biggest household product companies in the world, and an extremely profitable one at that. Clorox boasts net margins that are consistently in the double-digits, which means that the firm is able to pass a considerable chunk of its sales down to the bottom line of its income statement. That's important given the cost inflation worries that investors have been harping on for the last few years. >>5 Stocks Getting Ready to Pay Bigger Dividends CLX is a diversified business, with sales split up among its different brands. That lack of concentration on a single unit is a very good thing for investors -- it means that headwinds in a single product category are much less likely to ruin the firm's results. The only concentration Clorox has comes from its geographic positioning; currently around 80% of the firm's sales are in developed OECD countries, a fact that opens CLX up for big growth possibilities in emerging markets. Soros Fund Management picked up 675,690 shares of Clorox in the second quarter, building up a $49 million position in the company.

I want to ask for help reporting an extremely racist blog on WordPress (See link below).
I know this is against WordPress policy but as you will see this is not even subtle and not up for interpretation (its an extremely racist Blog).
Here are links to two pages of the Blog:
Can anyone help me to report this to WordPress? I don't know where to take this. Feel free to report this yourself if you know how.
I don't come here much so I may not see suggestions, I am really asking someone (if they know how) to go ahead and report this themselves, since I may not be back here to see the suggestions.
I was not sure of the version being used so I just entered one to get this post up.
Many Thanks! Phil

The top U.S. envoy to North Korea is calling the country's claim of a new nuclear facility provocative and disappointing.
But Stephen Bosworth says it's not a crisis or a surprise. North Korea recently showed off the formerly-secret facility to a visiting American scientist.
U.S. officials believe it's for uranium enrichment and could enable the country to build more nuclear weapons.

Patient Comments: Rosacea - Effective Treatments
What kinds of treatments have been effective for your rosacea?
Comment from: CJ, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: February 18
I have had rosacea all my life. I am fair skinned and freckled. My face was always red. I recently started taking astaxanthin 4 mg/day. It is found in any nutrition store. And after about 2 weeks I noticed my skin being more skin colored. After approximately 30 days my skin is no longer red. It is a pure miracle. I urge all who suffer to give it a try. Astaxanthin is an antioxidant found in krill oil. Research before you try. You won't regret it.
Comment from: cindy, 19-24 Female (Patient) Published: January 08
Using sunscreen every day and not using makeup every day, but just on special occasions is effective for my rosacea.
Comment from: turmericala, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: December 10
I've been battling rosacea for more than a year now, specifically on my right cheek. I had a series of IPL (intense pulsed light) treatments which helped mildly with the redness but didn't cure breakouts. My dermatologist prescribed Metrogel, not much success there either. I came across a facemask recipe which is working wonders clearing up the pustules and inflammation; two tablespoons of Greek yoghurt, 1 tablespoon honey and 1 tablespoon of turmeric powder. Turmeric is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Just two weeks after daily use the pustules are finally gone. Be sure to store in the fridge and take care when applying. Turmeric does stain clothes and hair.
Comment from: storm5, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: December 10
Anyone that has super sensitive skin or rosacea knows how difficult it can be to find a facial cleanser. I slather the Made from Earth green tea cleanser on my face liberally and I do not have the redness or ugly rosacea irritation I was getting.
Comment from: JMB, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: October 21
I have had rosacea since my twenties. Three years ago I developed acne rosacea. After visiting an acupuncturist who suggested I have a blood test for allergies I discovered I was allergic to gluten and dairy. I eliminated those from my diet and the acne was less. I was also told that coffee has the same molecular structure as wheat and although I did not test positive for caffeine I gave up coffee and saw more improvement with the acne. Now that we have identified the problem of food allergies I am hopeful that using some other natural remedies such a clay baths, etc. will help remove the toxins from my skin. And, the bonus of eating mostly vegetables and fruit is I have more energy and have lost some weight. This has been a win-win all around!
Comment from: SmithG8168, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: August 01
My first skin rash occurred when I was 38 and it, and subsequent rashes were misdiagnosed for a twenty year period. After I was correctly diagnosed with rosacea, I was prescribed Metrocream and given a daily dose of 40 mg of doxycycline. This along with sun avoidance between 10 am and 4 pm has worked well for me. Unfortunately, after a third V-beam treatment I developed small bumps and large pores on my nose.
Comment from: Whowahoo, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: July 18
I had the worst form, ocular rosacea that would drop the side of my face to some degree with the dermal version also. I was treated with prednisone injections, tetracycline and trigger awareness. Once stabilized for some reason I used about two tubes of Dollar Tree hydrocortisone 1% afterwards and have never again been plagued with rosacea in any form.
Comment from: rosygrannie, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: July 01
I went on doxycycline for about 6 months and it really helped. I didn't like the idea of being on antibiotics indefinitely, so I went off the doxycycline. After a few months my rosacea worsened. I began using azelaic acid (Finacea) a few weeks ago and am already noticing improvement. I notice it helps to avoid getting overheated; stay out of the sun, and avoid tomato-family foods (solanaceae: tomato, peppers, eggplant, white potatoes).

Cameron Diaz, Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Murphy walk into a restaurant and come out hours later with an idea for the craziest star-studded musical-comedy feature film this side of "Rock of Ages." It's not a terrible joke, but apparent Hollywood reality. As first reported by Deadline.com (and later confirmed by both EW.com and THR), the "Glee" creator is talking about teaming with three of Hollywood's biggest female stars, Beyonce and Andy Samberg (obviously) for "One Hit Wonders."
The musical would focus on three rival performers (Diaz, Witherspoon, Paltrow) who each had one successful single in the '90s; down on their luck, the trio joins forces as a way to get back into the spotlight. The idea is that Samberg and his Lonely Island troupe (Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone) would write original music for "Wonders," while Beyonce's role is currently unknown. (If you like to believe Internet commenters, one wrote on Deadline.com that Blue Ivy's mama would play the woman who actually sang the three one-hits released by Diaz, Witherspoon and Paltrow's characters.)
While Paltrow and Witherspoon are noted for their strong singing voices (see Paltrow's work on "Glee" and in "Country Strong" and Witherspoon's role in "Walk the Line"), Diaz has been known throughout her career for a lack of vocal prowess. In "My Best Friend's Wedding," she famously shrieked through a karaoke version of "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself" and in 2008 the actress told the Associated Press that she found performing live on stage "impossible."
Sony picked up Murphy's pitch for the comedy, though the studio hasn't confirmed deals with anyone just yet. Murphy previously worked with Paltrow on "Glee," and is busy with his adaptation of "The Normal Heart." Let's hope hell doesn't freeze over before this cuckoo-bananas production gets off the ground!

2008 Solving the WASL Questions of Doom
posted by November 6 at 18:58 PMon
Winding down—still at work—from my day, I decided to solve the WASL questions of doom.
Question 1:
The easiest was the Tom, Dick and Harry one.
Harry, earning more than the manager, cannot be the manager, nor the teller (that earns the least.) Therefore Harry is the Cashier.
Tom cannot be the teller, as he has a sister. Since Harry is the Cashier, that makes Tom the manager.
Dick is the teller by default. Sucks to be him, being poorest paid.
Total Time: 2 minutes, using a neato match-chart.
Question 2:
65 sides, by my calculation.
5 on each short side x two short sides = 10
25 on each long side x two long sides = 50
5 on the top x 1 top = 5
Total = 65
I did this by making a little engineering plan style drawing.
Total time: 2 min.
Question 3:
This fucking compactor/cube problem was the worst.
x is the edge size of the older compactor, and y is the edge size of the newer compactor.
We're told x > y and x and y are integers.
The volume of each cube is x^3 and y^3.
Each cube has twelve edges, so the total length of all the edges on both cubes is 12x + 12y.
Some asshole observed the following:
x3 + y3 = 12x + 12y
I spent much misery in algebra, attempting to get this down to something edible. My misery was unconstrained.
Among many others, I can make it all of the following:
x(x2 -12) + y(y2 -12) = 0
x3 / (x+y) + y3 / (x+y) = 12
and my personal favorite manipulation:
x4 + y4 + x^3y + xy3 -12 = 0
at this point, I became stuck, and brute forced it. (I have a feeling the last equation above is readily solvable. I got fed up, and realized that there aren't that many integral candidates that even potentially would work.)
x = 4, y = 2 satisfies the initial equation.
4^3 + 2^3 = 12(4+2)
64 + 8 = 72 = 12*6
Who the fuck "notices… that the combined volumes of one cube from each compactor was numerically the same as the combined length of all their edges." I work in a lab, a real scientific lab, and can guarantee such a situation never happens. Nor will it ever happen. I mean, really, this has no business being a word problem. Fucking stupid. I'm glad she lost.

PHILADELPHIA Ś Andrew Bynum is ready for his homecoming, however boo-heavy it may be.
The Cavaliers center told reporters Wednesday before his teamÆs game in Milwaukee that he expects to play Friday night at Wells Fargo Center against the Sixers, which Bynum called ōjust another game.ö Bynum missed all of last season with the Sixers while battling knee bone bruises.
And as for the booingģ
ōI think theyÆll probably boo, but thatÆs their choice,ö Bynum said. ōIt wasnÆt my choice to get rid of me. I donÆt feel bad at all (about last season). ģ If I was not hurt, I wouldÆve played. ThatÆs really the end to that story.ö
Bynum, whoÆs coming off the bench for the Cavaliers, has seen a gradual step-up in minutes as he progresses from the arthroscopic knee surgery he underwent in March while with the Sixers. The 7-footer entered Wednesday nightÆs game averaging 6.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.8 blocks in 12.6 minutes per game. Recently, he said heÆd been experiencing ōlittle sharp painsö in his surgically repaired knees, but that heÆs going to play through it.
A plethora of knee problems sidelined Bynum throughout the 2012-13 season, as did a knee injury incurred in November 2012 while bowling. Eventually, he practiced with the Sixers in January, before he gave way to multiple setbacks and residual pain.
BynumÆs minutes against the Sixers wonÆt be excessive, though the riff-raff surrounding him certainly will.
ōItÆs going to be a very interesting night. ThatÆs all IÆll say,ö Sixers forward Thaddeus Young said.
The 26-year-old Bynum is in the first year of a two-year, $24 million deal with the Cavaliers, though only $6 million of his salary is guaranteed. The team holds the option on Bynum for the 2014-15 season.
Jason Richardson remains on schedule for a return to the court around the All-Star break, the guard said.
Workouts by Richardson, whoÆs been out since last February following left knee surgery, have been reduced to the aquatic realm, with the guard swimming timed laps at a pool at Saint JosephÆs University. He said he has not been cleared for any impact conditioning, which includes anything basketball-related or even running on a treadmill.
Richardson, acquired by the Sixers in the same deal that brought Bynum to Philly in August 2012, is owed $6.2 million this season and holds a player option of $6.6 million for next season.
He said heÆll have a follow-up MRI next week.
NOTES: The Sixers have hired Rod Baker to coach their NBA D-League franchise, the Delaware 87ers, an NBA source said. Baker most recently coached last season as an assistant with the D-League club in Bakersfield. The 87ers open their season Nov. 23 against visiting Canton. ģ The Sixers wore black bands on the right shoulders of their jerseys in memory of Jeff Millman, a 50-year employee of the franchise and the teamÆs longtime equipment manager, who died Tuesday.

Stabilization of CO2 atmospheric concentrations requires practical strategies to address the challenges posed by the continued use of coal for baseload-electricity production. Over the next two decades, CO2 capture and sequestration (CCS) demonstration projects would need to increase several orders of magnitude across the globe in both size and scale. This task has several potential barriers which will have to be accounted for. These barriers include those that have been known for a number of years including safety of subsurface sequestration, pore-space competition with emerging activities like shale gas production, legal and regulatory frameworks, and public acceptance and technical communication. In addition water management is a new challenge that should be actively and carefully considered across all CCS operations. A review of the new insights gained on these previously and newly identified challenges, since the IPCC special report on CCS, is presented in this paper. While somewhat daunting in scope, some of these challenges can be addressed more easily by recognizing the potential advantageous synergies that can be exploited when these challenges are dealt with in combination. For example, active management of water resources, including brine in deep subsurface formations, can provide the additional cooling-water required by the CO2 capture retrofitting process while simultaneously reducing sequestration leakage risk and furthering efforts toward public acceptance. This comprehensive assessment indicates that water, sequestration, legal, and public acceptance challenges ought to be researched individually, but must also be examined collectively to exploit the promising synergies identified herein. Exploitation of these synergies provides the best possibilities for successful large-scale implementation of CCS.

text: is there a way to configure Nginx to read from a line-by-line file to determine when HTTPS should be enforced rather than putting all the URLS in a conditional check? Or is there a way to combine the two? Two areas of concern are organization and the ability long term to manage those urls. We are thinking of moving this to the application layer but Nginx seems faster in evaluating this. Currently we are just using a regular expression.

I'm a big fan of tdd I've got a lot of good tests around my core framework and shared code base. But I'm really struggling to crack tdd within an android application. And I'm curious how have other people dealt with automated testing for android apps. Are there any useful tools that you've used?
I've given monkey runner a try and its useful for injecting random events into the application. And I believe it can be used to script up selenium style regression tests but I haven't tried that.
The android instrumentation classes seem like they offer a lot and and are powerful, but sadly like all aspects of android I've found the documentation lacking and missing crucial details. For instance it took a few minute to realize that test methods only got picked up if the method name starts with the word test.
I've been trying to build my unit tests using the android test cases pattern they show on dev site but I've been finding it very slow going. And I've spent a couple of hours struggling hopelessly to find out how to get any kind of activity state information which I need to build my behaviour tests. For instance I have one test that I want to check that pressing the save button has successfully persisted data to a db and finished the activity. And another that checks that a dialog window has opened and populated correctly when the user touches a certain text box. But there doesn't seem to be any obvious way of getting that information, calling an applications different lifecylce methods is easy but how you find out what state it currently is in or what the orientation currently is I have no idea.
What about other developers have you managed to crack building quality tests around your android apps?

Drugs Drugs Are Bad, Mmmmkay?
posted by December 4 at 12:18 PMon
« Flickr Photo of the Day | On Beauty »
posted by December 4 at 12:18 PMon
that's totally how they got me.
I'm sorry, I was busy eating chocolate and drinking my coffee.
What was that you were saying about gateway drugs?
AHA! Yet another pack of lies being foisted upon The Youth Of America by our terrorist-loving liberal media!
Everybody KNOWS, jenkum is way CHEAPER than marijuana!
Smoked frequently enough (and it can be VERY habit forming), pot damages the lungs. A link to lung cancer hasn't yet been established, but that's probably because very little research has been done.
Also, marijuana is NOT good for teenager's brains, so they should avoid heavy use.
Make brownies or use a bong, folks!
We have nothing to lose but our baking pans!
People don't smoke pot all of the time because they're addicted, Irena. They smoke pot all of the time because they're losers and they don't have anything better to do.
Moderation. Use it.
People don't smoke pot all of the time because they're addicted, Irena.
Actually, pot's incredibly addictive and the jones from makes the bitchiness that comes off tobacco withdrawal look like a sunny day at the park. People coming down off their pot habit turn into raging assholes. I've seen it hundreds of times, it's like clockwork, all sorts of personality types, all sorts of circumstances.
Of course, the withdrawal from alcohol can actually fucking kill you (a claim that not even smack can make), so, you know, keep that in mind when you're making your drug choices too.
The video has already been removed :(
Never mind, it's back.
I honestly don't believe in addiction, Judah. Sorry. Not me. And I've had this argument 3,000,000 times already, so let's just agree that you're right and I'm wrong.
You TRUELY are an ass, Mr. Poe...
What is this from? About the damage pot does to your lungs, my belief is that pot is so strong (at least these days) that I can't imagine it really does much to your lungs when smoked in moderation. Cigarette smokers much take in exponentially more smoke. I take a couple small puffs after work pretty much on a daily basis. No one ever suspects I'm stoned (not even my wife unless I tell her). I really can't see any reason to abstain.
What was that Lilly Tomlin skit where she says first she started chewing the eraser on the pencil, then it just got worse? #3 is SO right, it all starts so innocently. And look what happens! A BLACK man talks rough to a WHITE man!
Just to clarify, my point was that because it's so strong, people just need a tiny bit to get stoned. Perhaps this is why most people don't smoke joints anymore.
From the National Institute on Drug Abuse website:
"A study of 450 individuals found that people who smoke marijuana frequently but do not smoke tobacco have more health problems and miss more days of work than nonsmokers. Many of the extra sick days among the marijuana smokers in the study were for respiratory illnesses.
Even infrequent abuse can cause burning and stinging of the mouth and throat, often accompanied by a heavy cough. Someone who smokes marijuana regularly may have many of the same respiratory problems that tobacco smokers do, such as daily cough and phlegm production, more frequent acute chest illness, a heightened risk of lung infections, and a greater tendency to obstructed airways. Smoking marijuana possibly increases the likelihood of developing cancer of the head or neck. A study comparing 173 cancer patients and 176 healthy individuals produced evidence that marijuana smoking doubled or tripled the risk of these cancers.
Marijuana abuse also has the potential to promote cancer of the lungs and other parts of the respiratory tract because it contains irritants and carcinogens. In fact, marijuana smoke contains 50 to 70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons than does tobacco smoke. It also induces high levels of an enzyme that converts certain hydrocarbons into their carcinogenic formlevels that may accelerate the changes that ultimately produce malignant cells. Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than tobacco smokers do, which increases the lungs' exposure to carcinogenic smoke. These facts suggest that, puff for puff, smoking marijuana may be more harmful to the lungs than smoking tobacco."
And on top of that:
"Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has the potential to cause problems in daily life or make a person's existing problems worse. Depression, anxiety, and personality disturbances have been associated with chronic marijuana use. Because marijuana compromises the ability to learn and remember information, the more a person uses marijuana the more he or she is likely to fall behind in accumulating intellectual, job, or social skills."
By the way, PJ, smoking every day is considered heavy use. That said, pot is still relatively benign compared to alcohol, religion, and other drugs. Consider using a water pipe -- it will reduce the damage.
Haven't heard of medical marijuana?
Regarding the association of depression and anxiety with pot smoking--there's a study out that showed that pot smokers who smoke once a week are less likely to be depressed than people who don't smoke any pot. Even daily smokers show lower rates of depression than non-smokers.
People with depression or anxiety might be more likely to smoke pot than the general population because it helps them deal with their symptoms.
Sure I've heard of medical marijuana -- what's your point? The smoke is still bad for your lungs, which is why the preferred method of taking it is with a vaporizer.
As for depression, I tend to agree with you -- pot lifts my mood, without a doubt. But chronic, long-term use can prevent people from achieving their goals, which can lead to depression.
Hey, it's the individual's choice as far as I'm concerned; it affects everyone differently. But if you're going to smoke it, you should know the facts. Pot smokers (and I am one) like to think marijuana is perfect, and it's not.
this is from the new john c. reilly movie 'walk hard: the dewey cox story'. sort of a take off on 'walk the line' and 'the doors'. saw the preview and it looks hilarious. from the fertile comic mind of judd apatow.
I've only smoked dope like twice in the last fifteen years, but Irena could you post some references for your assertions from a medical source (ie, not the National Institute on Drug Abuse.) A lot of the things you claim here I've never heard of before.
The NIDA is a douchy group of douches that aren't fit to eat a douche. For instance, in their "Facts for Teens" section, they say...
"Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per day may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day"
Well, duh. If you're smoking five joints a day, you've got other problems. They should compare five joints to five packs of smokes. So forgive me if I'm not eager to accept their "unbiased" opinions on all these subjects.
Somebody else is the biggest douche for even buying into the N.I.D.A.'s data...
Do an extensive web search. You'll find that most reputable medical sources agree with NIDA.
Irena, I generally like a lot of the stuff you write on the Slog, but on this one YOU do the fucking "extensive web search." YOU'RE the one posting bullshit Drug War government agencies to justify your arguments. If "most reputable medical sources" agree with you, it should be trivial for you to find corroboration for your sensationalist statements.
Sorry to be harsh, but the Drug War is almost as disasterous of a waste of time, money, civil liberties, and prison space as the War in Iraq. There are bad, dangerous drugs, but there is NOT a consensus that marijuana is one of them and if you want to make a counterproposal (especially around here) you'd better come armed with something better than Nancy Reagan-era "Just Say No" propoganda.

So I have a website which is in english, and I have noticed that most of my visitors are from Sweden. And as I am a swede myself, I thought I could have both an english and swedish site.
The website (looks, widgets, everything) is going to be same, just two different languages. Swedes go to http://www.aaa.com/sv and international people go to http://www.aaa.com or http://www.aaa.com/en. But that should be automatic redirection. But yeah.
So, now it might be a clear case of qTranslate, right? If everythings the same, but different languages. Well, the issue is that I sometimes want to create specific posts for specific sites. Like, one day I might want to do a review of something called "Marko" to the Swedish site, because the product Marko isn't available on the international market but only in Sweden. Is that possible with qTranslate? To sometimes create specific posts or pages for a specific country?
I want for example on the swedish site an extra page called "Deals" (but in Swedish of course) up in the menu, but I don't want that on the international site. Does that work?
And, last, but not least, can I translate the theme in qTranslate or do I have to do that manually or can't you do it? The theme is in english.

Wood bangs Lexi Love?s rump not once, but twice (and leaves a spunk deposit in the first go-round), peers longingly into Adrianna Nicole?s gaping backside, and allows us to share in the anal pillaging of the aforementioned ladies, as well as peaches-and-cream vixen Bobbi Star and buxotic tanning addict Donna Doll.
Only alt-styled Presley Maddox?s tush remains untouched when the dust has cleared ? but don?t worry, Wood fucks her good all the same.
Pre-nom: Best Anal-themed Release ? Video.
Retailing: Anal-intensive POV.
