Don Alejandro de la Vega was an extremely wealthy man. His ranchero spread out over nearly fifty thousand acres. His herds of cattle and sheep were the best that money could buy. The hacienda where he lived was the grandest home for miles around.
But Don Alejandro was also an old man. He unhappily faced the fact of his age every day when he looked into the mirror. He now peered into one a little closer as he tied his neck tie. Yes, he thought, his hair was getting greyer, the lines in his face were more pronounced. And still he had no grandchildren. No hardy muchachos or bashful little niñas to dangle upon his knee.
And if such matters were going to be left up to his son, there would not be any grandchildren for a long time yet.
Don Alejandro had been discussing that very problem with his old friend, Don Eduardo Delgado that very morning at the tavern. Don Alejandro had come in for an early lunch and had found Don Eduardo there, sipping a glass of wine.
The two exchanged pleasantries, then Don Alejandro sat down with his friend. Don Eduardo had told him he was waiting for the arrival of the coach from Mexico City. For it was bringing his eighteen year old daughter, Catalina, home after spending the last six years with his late wife's sister in Mexico City.
"It would be a perfect match," Don Eduardo had said. "Your son, Diego and my daughter."
"Yes, it would," Don Alejandro had agreed, mulling it over in his mind while taking a sip of his wine.
Don Eduardo did the same, then leaned a little closer across the table toward his friend.
"I must confess that I was at a loss as to what to do with Catalina. Marriage would be an ideal solution to both our problems," he said. He stopped as a coughing spasm hit him.
"Are you all right?" inquired Don Alejandro
"It's nothing," Don Eduardo wheezed, catching his breath. "Just all this dust." He waved his hand in the air. Then he straightened back up before adding, "You and Diego must dine with us tonight, Don Alejandro."
The scheming caballeros quickly arranged a dinner party for that evening. Don Alejandro had stayed with his friend until the coach finally arrived in the plaza.
Señorita Catalina Delgado turned out to be a very lovely, delicate young lady, with dark blue eyes and fashionably styled dark auburn hair.
"She looks even more like her dear departed mother," Don Eduardo whispered, tears welling up in his eyes.
He went over and helped his daughter from the coach. The pair embraced while Don Alejandro watched with interest. A trifle young maybe, he thought, but then that might make her easier for Diego to handle. Besides, a little high-spiritedness would not come amiss. It just might shake his stuffy son up a bit.
Don Alejandro finished fiddling with his
tie, finally satisfied with his appearance. He left his bedroom in
order to go in search of his unsuspecting son.
His son, Don Diego de la Vega, at that moment, was in the secret cave buried underneath the lavish hacienda. He was working on a new project and was so caught up in it, he had completely forgotten all about the dinner invitation his father had informed him of earlier that afternoon.
Strewn across the laboratory table were almost a hundred different species of plants. Diego and Felipe had spent most of the morning collecting their specimens. And now, Diego was attempting to match each plant with pictures in a large book of Spanish botany. So far he had found only a few that were similar and only two that matched exactly, purslane and salsify.
Felipe, still recovering from his concussion, was sitting quietly on a stool, merely observing his adopted father leafing through the book..
Diego picked up yet another specimen. He was flipping through the botany book when the sound of his father's voice interrupted him.
"Diego!" Don Alejandro called as he walked into the library. Seeing that his son was not there, he turned and left the room, calling again, "Diego!"
"Drat," said the object of his search, throwing down the plant he was holding. He glanced about disparagingly at the mess on the laboratory table. "I had better go see what he wants."
Diego paused to peer through the viewing hole, then continued on his way out of the cave, ducking under the archway. Emerging into the library, he quickly grabbed his guitar then he plopped himself down onto the settee. Diego began to strum it just as his father reappeared.
"Diego, there you are," Don Alejandro said in exasperated. "Haven't you heard me calling you?"
Diego looked up slowly from his instrument. "Oh, hello, Father," he remarked innocently.
"Is that what you are wearing?" his father asked, noticing his son's somewhat rumpled white shirt and dusty blue trousers.
Diego glanced down at his clothes and shrugged. "It appears so," he answered.
Don Alejandro took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. "Well, come on then, at least put on a tie and jacket. We are going to be late."
"Late?" queried his son, a little perplexed. "Late for what?"
"Dinner at the Delgado's." Don Alejandro was getting a little perturbed. "Please do not tell me have you forgotten all about it."
Diego grinned sheepishly. "I guess I did," he admitted. He stood up, setting the guitar aside. "I will go get ready."
"Hurry up," his father called after him as he left the room.
Half an hour later, the de la Vegas were admitted into the Delgado hacienda. Its style was similar to that of the de la Vega's, but not quite as grand. Don Eduardo, resplendent in a new suit, stepped forward eagerly to greet his guests.
"Don Alejandro, Diego," he said enthusiastically. "This way, por favor. Dinner is almost ready."
He led them to the dining room, where the long mahogany table was prepared with fine china, crystal and linens. Diego looked over at his father, questioning the unexpected formality. Most dinners with Don Eduardo were quite informal. Don Alejandro caught Diego's glance and shrugged his shoulders innocently. They all turned when a lovely young woman glided into the room. Don Eduardo immediately escorted her over to where the de la Vega men were standing.
"Alejandro, Diego, you remember my daughter, Catalina?" asked Don Eduardo as he presented her.
"Indeed," replied Don Alejandro, acting as though he had not met her earlier that day. "But she is all grown up now and quite beautiful, is she not, Diego?" Catalina blushed demurely at the compliment.
"Si," was Diego's terse answer.
"She has just returned from Mexico City," explained Don Eduardo, "where she has been living with her aunt. Catalina attended the ladies' academy there, Diego. The two of you should have much in common since you are both so highly educated"
Diego nodded his acknowledgment, grimacing slightly as he realized that the two older gentlemen were not so subtly matchmaking. He smiled politely at Catalina, who was gazing up at him shyly.
Don Alejandro nudged Diego with his elbow. "Help her to her chair," he whispered.
Diego had no choice but to escort the lovely young señorita to the table. The glare he gave his father was heavy with displeasure and muttered under his breath, "Oh, Father."
Catalina glanced up quickly at him and he plastered the polite smile back on his face. A frown marred his handsome face though as he took his seat beside her.
Dinner was quite awkward, with the two scheming fathers trying hard to draw their two children together into the conversation. Diego found Catalina a pleasant enough girl, but she lacked the independence and passion that Victoria had. A servant began clearing the plates from the table. Don Alejandro brought his napkin to his lips as his empty plate was removed. "Absolutely delicious as always, Eduardo," he said.
"Gracias," replied his host. He looked over at Diego, whose dinner had hardly been touched. "Is something wrong your meal, Diego?"
Diego put his napkin on his dish as a servant took it away. "No, Don Eduardo," he answered. "I just seem to have no appetite tonight."
He shot his father a disgusted look. Don Alejandro would not meet Diego's angry green eyes.
"Catalina, my dear," Eduardo said, oblivious to the tension between the de la Vegas, "Why don't you show Diego our courtyard garden. It is very beautiful in the moonlight."
"Si, Papa," she agreed obediently. Diego rolled his eyes as he stood up and helped the señorita from her chair.
"This way, Don Diego," she said and went through a curtained archway. Having no other choice, Diego followed after her.
The two plotting caballeros waited until the young couple were gone, then raised their wine glasses.
"To Diego and Catalina," Don Eduardo offered as a toast.
They both took a drink. Don Alejandro leaned forward and said, "They do make a handsome couple, don't they?"
"Si," replied Don Eduardo. "Just imagine, the de la Vega and the Delgado lands joined together. Our grandsons will be the richest men in all of California."
"Es la verdad," Don Alejandro agreed. "I just hope Diego will be able to handle the responsibility of it all." When he saw his co-conspirator's raised eyebrows, he added, "Not that Diego is irresponsible, it is just that he fancies himself a scientist and poet, not a rancher."
"We will have to stick around to make sure all goes well then," suggested Don Eduardo with a small chuckle. He raised his glass again.
Don Alejandro did the same and the two touched their goblets together in a silent toast.
Diego and Catalina did not linger long in the Delgado courtyard, running out small talk quite quickly. They returned to the hacienda and so were forced to endure more of their paternal parents' matchmaking. The evening mercifully came to an end and the de la Vegas arrived back at their hacienda a little after midnight. Felipe was in the library, asleep in a chair with a law book opened and draped across his lap.
"He must have tried to wait up for us," Don Alejandro remarked. He turned to look at Diego. "Tell me, Diego, isn't Catalina the most charming señorita?"
Diego tried to contain his anger as he answered his father, but a bit slipped through in his reply.
"I know you mean well, Father," he said. "But I am quite capable of finding a wife on my own."
"When?" his father demanded to know. "I am an old man, Diego. I want to see my grandchildren before I die. If I wait for you. . ."
He broke off as Diego felt his anger dissipate and contrition set in. "Don't worry, Father," he said, patting his father on the shoulder. "I wish that too."
Don Alejandro sighed heavily. "I am going to bed now," he announced. "You might want to wake Felipe. His neck will be sore in the morning if he sleeps there all night."
He took his leave. Diego watched him
go as the events of the evening raced through his mind.. He reached
down and shook Felipe's shoulder to wake him from his uncomfortable slumbers.
The next morning, the Alcalde was up early and working at his desk. He glanced up sharply when a private entered his office. The young soldier saluted, then held out his hand to the Alcalde. It contained several letters.
"The mail, Alcalde sir," the private said, placing the envelopes on the desk. Then he turned on his heel and left the office.
De Soto picked up the letters, sorting through them without much interest. An envelope bearing the King's royal seal seized his attention. He promptly opened it and scanned its contents.
That morning happened to be market day in the pueblo. Don Alejandro, Diego and Felipe all came into town, riding in their carriage. Diego was immediately deserted by both his father and son; Don Alejandro went off with some of his friends to watch the cattle auction and Felipe went in search of Ana Maria. Diego wandered aimlessly around the stalls until he quite literally bumped into Victoria, knocking her basket from her hand.
"Oh, I am so sorry, Victoria," he apologized at once.
"It's all right, Diego," Victoria said as she knelt down to pick up the spilled contents of her basket.
Diego crouched down to help her. When everything had been dusted off and put back, he lifted the basket as he stood up. Then he took Victoria's hand and assisted her to her feet.
"Gracias, Diego," she said as he did not relinquish her hand immediately. Something about the way his hand felt in hers seemed oddly familiar. She gave him a strange look.
Diego, realizing what was going through her mind, allowed her hand to fall. "Allow me to carry your basket," he offered graciously.
Victoria nodded her agreement. They were ready to resume their shopping when Catalina Delgado strolled up to them. She was dressed in the height of fashion in a peach silk dress. Shading her face from the harsh effects of the sun was a matching parasol. She was accompanied by her maid, who was carrying her many purchases. Victoria looked down at her own outfit, a new blue cotton skirt and ivory lace trimmed blouse. She had felt so stylish this morning when she had put them on, but now beside the other woman, she felt dowdy.
"Don Diego, how lovely to see you again," Catalina greeted him in a girlish voice. She had been prompted by her father to seek out Don Diego, and she, being an obedient daughter, did as he asked. She said nothing to Victoria. This infuriated the other woman.
"Victoria, you remember Catalina Delgado?" Diego intervened before her temper fully developed.. "She has just arrived home from Mexico City."
"How nice," Victoria replied a little sarcastically.
The two women smiled grudgingly at each other. Then Catalina laid a perfectly manicured hand on Diego's arm.
"Diego, you must know all the best merchants," she said. "You must show me around."
"I am sorry, Señorita, but..." He started to apologize but he was interrupted by a loud commotion.
They all turned to see what was happened. The Alcalde, dressed in his best uniform, was followed by a procession of soldiers who marched to the center of the plaza. He stepped onto the rim of the fountain.
"Atencion! Atencion!" called Sergeant Mendoza to the assembled crowd.
When the Alcalde had everyone's attention, he began. "I have just received an edict from the territorial governor."
Many people groaned and shook their heads. De Soto ignored them as he continued.
"As you are all well aware, Spain is at present at war with France. Many resources are needed to succeed in beating the French. Food, money and..." he paused a second, "and people. The governor, by direct order of King Ferdinand, is calling for the enlistment of all young unmarried men, between the ages of sixteen and thirty, to serve their country in this time of conflict."
The gathered assembly soon became an angry mob. People shouted and some women were weeping. Don Alejandro strode over from the stockyard to confront the Alcalde.
Felipe had heard the announcement but had to pretend he did not. Ana Maria had a stricken look on her face when she turned to look at him. He put his arm around the young lady to comfort her. Through the crowd he made eye contact with Diego, who shook his head. They both turned their attention to the argument that was occurring between Don Alejandro and the Alcalde.
"This is insane, Alcalde," Don Alejandro asserted quite loudly. "First they take our money and now they want our sons. Well, I for one, say enough is enough."
The people cheered in agreement. Don Alejandro, encouraged by their support, continued his argument.
"What about men who are supporting elderly parents?" he questioned. "What about the single farmers? What will happen to their land if they are not there to work it?"
The Alcalde lifted his hands. "People, people, calm down," he instructed authoritatively. "Don Alejandro does raise some valid questions, I agree. But the edict was quite definite."
He glanced down at the paper he held in his gloved hand. "Yes," he stated, reading from it, "All unmarried men, aged sixteen to thirty are to be inducted. They must report to their local garrison by the end of the month."
"That is preposterous," Don Alejandro said
vigorously. "Are there no provisions for special situations?
I cannot believe. . ." Suddenly he stopped his tirade and clutched
at his chest. Then he crumpled to the ground.

National Credit Solutions (NCS) FDCPA / FCRA / NYC Debt Collection Violations / Business Violations / Consumer Violations / Debt Collection / IDT Telecom / Not My Debt / Not Registered to Collect Debts in New York Oklahoma City OK
*Consumer Suggestion: It is illegal for NCS to report and continue collections without validating...
*Consumer Suggestion: NCS Licensing
To make a long story short, NCS continued collection activities, even after they confirmed that they had received the debt validation request. On top of that, after running a search for them on the New York City Department of Consumer Affairs website ( http://www.nyc.gov/html/dca/html/licenses/license_check.shtml ), they don't even have the required license pursuant to New York City Administrative Code Section 20-490, all debt collection agencies MUST be licensed to collect debts in NYC.
I offered them the opportunity to settle and I would have been kind enough to have signed a non-disclosure agreement. I got an email back from them within seconds telling me that since they "closed" my account, I can pretty much forget about them settling and if I choose to pursue this matter with my attorney, they don't really care?!?! Since when does closing an account change the fact that violations were committed? If it were that simple, don't you think NCO would have just "closed" all of their account and they wouldn't have been subjected to the largest fine in collection history.
Well, it's too late. I want everyone to know, if you have gotten a debt collection letter and/or any tradelines placed on your credit report and you live in New York City, file suit in your local civil court for damages. Request a demand for a Jury trial so they have to explain to your fellow NY'ers why decided to break the law. If you have other violations, all the better!
Also, if you are a resident of NYC, please don't forget to write to the BBB.org, NY Attorney General and the NYC Dept of Consumer Affairs offices as they are looking forward to hearing from you.

Ibekwe's 22 Points Fuel the Terrapins
Friday, November 17, 2006
NEW YORK, Nov. 16 -- Three ice packs covered Maryland forward Ekene Ibekwe's right knee, left knee and left ankle Thursday night, his 6-foot-9, 220-pound frame sprawled out over a chair on the edge of a bare-bones locker room at Madison Square Garden.
As he did throughout the night, he appeared at ease.
Ibekwe had just finished scoring a career-best 22 points -- all in the first half -- to lead Maryland to a 92-60 victory over St. John's in the semifinals of the 2K Sports College Hoops Classic. The victory puts Maryland in Friday night's championship game against Michigan State, which posted a 63-61 victory over Texas in the second semifinal.
"I was just out there and relaxed," said Ibekwe, who outscored St. John's on his own in the first half. "I wasn't too anxious. I was just playing basketball."
The Terrapins came to New York City hoping to gauge just how much progress they have made since resolving in the spring to become a better defensive team. The answer came quickly. The Red Storm (2-1) made just two of its first 13 field goal attempts on the way to a 7-for-33 (21.2 percent) shooting performance in the first half.
By halftime, Maryland (4-0) had already achieved its primary objectives -- improving defensive intensity and rebounding aggressively. The Terrapins outrebounded St. John's 52-34 and led by 40 points early in the second half.
Still, Maryland Coach Gary Williams tempered his reaction.
"Tonight was a very positive step for us," Williams said. "But again, it's November 16, and we're very aware of what time of year it is."
Maryland's Mike Jones scored 19 points and teammate D.J. Strawberry contributed 18. The two combined to make 5 of 10 three-point attempts. But ultimately, it was Ibekwe's night.
"He's been playing like that in practice," Williams said.
Ibekwe, whose previous high was 21 points against Boston College last December, opened the scoring when he stole the ball from Anthony Mason, then took it down the court for a dunk. He connected on his first five shots and finished the half by scoring his team's last three field goals -- on a dunk, a mid-range jumper and a layup.
Williams said Ibekwe has had a tendency to press too much, showing anxiety in games. Not this night.

- We got to see totality in the 2017 total solar eclipse! It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen.
I gave a talk titled "Becoming a Contributor" at Rust Belt Rust 2017, October 26–27. The abstract:
So, you're new to the Rust community. (Or any community, really!) And you want to help, but, well, you're new. So how exactly do you start contributing? What kinds of contributions are valuable? We'll talk about everything from asking questions to writing documentation, from pitching in on forums and chat to writing blog posts, and from starting your own projects to contributing to other open-source projects.
You can see the slides for the talk here or read the prepared script here.
- New Rustacean – a podcast about learning the Rust programming languare. Updates 2–3⨉ each month.
- Winning Slowly – taking the long view on technology, religion, ethics, and art; cohosted with Stephen Carradini. Usually updates biweekly; we've been in flux with Stephen finishing a Ph.D., his wife delivering their first baby, and their all moving from North Carolina to Arizona in the course of 2017. We finished Season 5 this fall and are prepping for Season 6, with a couple inter-season episodes coming out in between.
- Mass Affection – playing through the Mass Effect with my wife. I've got two episodes we need to publish. We got distracted with things besides video games this summer, but we'll be back at it. Sadly, we packed up the game and our Xbox 360, so we won't be back at it until we move in.
- I published True Myth, a library for safer (functional) programming in TypeScript, Flow, or plain-old JavaScript. You can read about the project in its docs or in my introductory blog post.
- Over the course of 2017, I've been working on making the experience of writing TypeScript and Ember.js together awesome. typed-ember on GitHub is where all the action is at. I've also been writing a series of blog posts, "Typing Your Ember", to help people get off the ground.
- I'm keeping track of my reading this year via my 2017 book list. One of my goals is, for new books I read, to write at least a short review of them.
On Hold
- lightning.rs – my static site generator project in Rust, which I'm currently hoping to get back to in 2018. We'll see.
- Rust and Swift – I tabled this to work on a project of the same focus for O'Reilly, who ended up canceling the project. I'm not sure I'll ever go back to it. I was really enjoying it, but that really burned me out, and in the meantime both Swift and Rust have moved on, a lot.
- I finished my M. Div. in May 2017. Finally.
- I also went full-time at Olo at the same time. I'm now a Senior Software Engineer focused on making the experience of ordering food online as amazing as it can be. (We have a long way to go!)

Boys reach puberty two years earlier than in the past... and some start to mature at the age of six
Boys are hitting puberty up to two years earlier than in the past – with some starting to show the first signs of maturing as young as six, according to doctors.
Although it is well-documented that girls are hitting puberty younger, the study is one of the first to suggest that boys are also growing up earlier.
Data gathered from 4,000 boys across the US revealed that, on average, white and Hispanic boys go through puberty around the age of ten, while the average age is nine for black boys.
Early: Researchers have found signs of puberty in American boys up to two years earlier than previously reported (stock photo)
Researchers working for the American Academy of Paediatrics said that a similar trend had been noticed in other countries, including the UK.
The doctors who volunteered for the study had examined young male patients for signs of puberty.
Nine per cent of white boys showed some signs of puberty at six, as did almost 20 per cent of black boys and 7 per cent of Hispanics, the AAP's annual conference heard.
Overall, the average age of the onset of puberty was 18 months earlier than the long-considered figure of 11.5 years for white boys and two years earlier for black children, who had been thought to start developing aged 11.
The reasons for the shift are unclear but experts warned the results could be skewed because the doctors had volunteered to take part, so they might have had a special interest in the topic because they had more patients going through early puberty than most.
Dr William Adelman, an adolescent medicine specialist in the Baltimore area, says the new research is the first to find early, strong physical evidence that boys are maturing earlier. But he added that the study still isn't proof and said it raises a lot of questions.
Earlier research based on 20-year-old national data also suggested a trend toward early puberty in boys, but it was based on less rigorous information. The new study involved testes measurements in more than 4,000 boys. Enlargement of testes is generally the earliest sign of puberty in boys.
The study was published online Saturday in Pediatrics to coincide with the American Academy of Pediatrics' national conference in New Orleans.
Dr Neerav Desai, an adolescent medicine specialist at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, said he's seen a subtle trend toward slightly earlier puberty in boys. He said it's important for parents and doctors to be aware so they can help children emotionally prepare for the changes that come with puberty.
Sooner: Other studies have suggested that girls, too, are entering puberty younger (stock photo)
Doctors generally consider puberty early if it begins before age 8 in girls and before age 9 in boys.
Boys are more likely than girls to have an underlying physical cause for early puberty. But it's likely that most, if not all, of the boys in the study were free of any conditions that might explain the results, said lead author Marcia Herman-Giddens, a researcher at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill.
Problems such as thyroid abnormalities and brain tumors have been linked to early puberty. But boys with chronic medical conditions or who were using medicines that could affect puberty were excluded from the research.
In girls, early puberty has been linked with increased chances for developing breast cancer, but whether it poses health risks for boys is uncertain. Some scientists think early testes development may increase the risk for testicular cancer, but a recent research analysis found no such link.
'If it's true that boys are starting puberty younger, it's not clear that means anything negative or has any implications for long-term,' said Adelman, a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics' committee on adolescence.
For the new study, researchers recruited pediatricians in 41 states who participate in the academy's office-based research network. Doctors asked parents and boys aged 6 to 16 to take part during regular checkups. The visits took place between 2005 and 2010.
Half of the boys were white. The rest were almost evenly divided among blacks and Hispanics.
On average, white boys started puberty at age 10, a year and a half earlier than what has long been considered the normal average. For black boys, the average age of 9 was about two years earlier than in previous research. Among Hispanics, age 10 was similar to previous research that only involved Mexican-American boys. The new study included boys from other Hispanic backgrounds.
Testes enlargement was seen at age 6 in 9 percent of white boys, almost 20 percent of blacks and 7 percent of Hispanics.
Pubic hair growth, another early sign of puberty, started about a year after testes enlargement in all groups but still earlier than previously thought.
In girls, breast development is the first sign, and recent research suggested that it starts at age 7 in about 10 per cent of white girls, 23 per cent of blacks and 15 per cent of Hispanics. That's substantially higher than rates reported more than a decade ago.
But some experts have questioned methods used in studies in girls, noting that the age when girls start menstruating has not changed much and remains around age 12 on average.
Dr Dianne Deplewski, a pediatric endocrinologist at the University of Chicago, has not seen any increase in boys referred to her for signs of early puberty. She said it's possible that the new study results were skewed by families who brought their boys to the doctor because they already had concerns about their health.
The study had other limitations. Testes were measured just once, and doctors weren't randomly recruited but volunteered to participate. That means it's possible that those with early maturing patients were overly represented, but Herman-Giddens said it's unlikely boys in the study were different from those in the general U.S. population.
She said the research methods weren't perfect but that they're the best to date. She also stressed that the results shouldn't be used to establish a 'new normal' for the start of puberty in boys.
'Just because this is happening doesn't mean this is normal or healthy,' the researcher said.

The latest business news, reviews, features and whitepapers
For its small price tag, the 40in Kogan 1080P40 displays good detail levels in both digital television and Blu-ray movie content. It struggles sometimes with difficult-to-display video scenes and its 100hz mode occasionally introduces some flickering, but as a low-priced LCD television it performs well.
The Kogan 1080P40 is a 40in LCD television with a low price of $699. It is aimed at budget-conscious buyers who still want a screen with a reasonably large size and high resolution. For most viewing it serves well, and it only falters when displaying fast motion or high contrast video.
The Kogan 1080P40 LCD television has a rather uninspired design, with a black bezel. The black glossy plastic is attractive though, and it matches the glossy finish of the LCD panel. This gloss finish makes colours pop on screen, but viewing is compromised by reflections if you're in a bright room. The stand of the Kogan 1080P40 is solidly constructed and we appreciate the fact that it swivels. If you're choosing a new TV for a large room, a swivelling stand is a must.
The inputs of the Kogan 1080P40 are arranged along the lower back in a no-nonsense fashion. Two HDMI ports display 1080p content from digital sources, component handles older high-definition devices, VGA can be used for PC connection and a few composite connectors are useful for connecting low resolution devices like iPods and older camcorders. You can also connect a device like a flash drive or external hard drive to a side-mounted USB port to watch videos, looking at pictures and playing music.
The Kogan 1080P40 displays, as its name suggests, a Full HD 1080p picture at its native resolution. When viewing content on a PC connected via VGA, or during a bright scene of a Blu-ray movie, the Kogan 1080P40 displays good detail levels. We found it slightly too sharp in default settings — reducing sharpness slightly made the screen easier to watch without sacrificing clarity. Similarly the Kogan 1080P40 benefited from slightly higher saturation levels and a slight reduction of backlight brightness to enhance black level detail.
For the most part, the Kogan 1080P40 displays good detail from both high and low quality sources. When it's presented with something difficult, like our oft-used test footage from The Dark Knight — the opening sequence's bright pin-pricks of white light on a dark background — the Kogan 1080P40 does struggle to maintain detail. Both highlights and dark regions aren't able to display the same detail that LED and plasma televisions like the Samsung UA55C7000 or Panasonic TH-P50VT20A. Granted, these televisions are much more expensive than the wallet-friendly Kogan.
The USB input of the Kogan 1080P40 can play a range of formats including DivX and MP4 video, MP3 and WMA audio and JPG image files. It's useful for an impromptu slideshow of holiday photos, watching downloaded videos or for playing back a ripped music CD.
The Kogan 1080P40 has a 100Hz panel refresh rate, using a frame-doubling method of interpolation to smooth out video playback. It works well with TV and DVD content, but fast motion scenes on our Blu-ray test discs occasionally introduced a small amount of blur and flickering. It became more evident when a fast-moving object on screen was situated against a static background. We also couldn't find a way to disable the 100Hz mode.
The Kogan 1080P40 offers good picture quality given its low price tag. The inclusion of a USB input and swivelling stand are also useful extras that increase ease of use. We weren't thrilled with the occasional problems with the 100Hz mode, but for most users it won't be a problem. For its $699 price, the Kogan 1080P40 generally impressed us.

Skip to comments.Liberals Understand The Constitution Like Justin Bieber Understands Particle Physics
Posted on 04/28/2014 4:28:13 AM PDT by Kaslin
Based upon Justice Sotomayors bizarre dissenting opinion in the recent Michigan affirmative action case, it seems she believes that government decisions made on the basis of race, something the Constitution expressly bars, are mandatory.
Someone has been emanating her penumbras because, to use the legal term of art, thats Constitutional Crazy Talk.
Years ago, the liberals came up with the Political Process Doctrine. Its the idea that if some small element of a state or local government like a city council or a university board is implementing policies liberals like, the people cant use the ballot box to change things back.
It ought to be called the Ratchet Doctrine. You are free to make things more liberal to your bleeding hearts content. You just cant ever undo them. Its right there in the Constitution. Somewhere. Maybe in the paragraph before the one that says you can have an abortion up until your fetus can drive.
Liberals like to call the Constitution a living document. Oh, how many activists in robes cite that mind-bogglingly misguided metaphor as they turn a foundational document into a kind of political Mad Lib where they scribble nonsense into blanks that dont exist?
In fact, the Constitution is dead, dead as a doorknob. It has to be. Otherwise, its not a constitution.
The Constitution is designed not to change with the times, not to yield the ancient wisdom that flows through it to the faux-wisdom of the present. It is the foundation of our system, not something to be causally disregarded every time some politician who thinks hes smarter than James Madison gets a bright idea.
It ensures a stable society where firm political principles keep political actors in check. This, in turn, creates legitimacy. We Americans take legitimacy for granted. Want to know what happens when you forsake legitimacy in favor of petty expedience? You end up like most of the rest of the world. Go ask a vet about how that works out many of us have spent years in foreign lands full of mass graves cleaning up the bloody detritus of illegitimacy.
That a Supreme Court justice has such a fundamental misunderstanding of the Constitutions purpose is alarming. She repeats the phrase race matters throughout her 58-page dissent, as if hackneyed clichés worthy of some third-tier MSNBC panelist constitute legal reasoning.
No, race doesnt matter. Thats the point of our Constitution.
Sotomayor just didnt like that the Constitution allows people to vote to undo liberal failures, so she simply invented a prohibition on doing so. Under her constitution, you are allowed to vote for any policy she and her liberal pals approve of. You can just never vote against one because well, pretty much just because she says so.
To be charitable, its not a particularly coherent legal opinion. One cant be sure Sotomayor was drinking when she wrote it, but one hopes she was because at least then shed have an excuse.
Where liberals dont totally ignore what the Constitution says, they add asterisks, each one qualifying and circumscribing a fundamental right. The right to freely exercise your religion? The right to speak freely? Those are totally, absolutely, completely inalienable!*
*That is, unless we liberals decide you shouldnt exercise your religion or express yourself in the way you want.
Youll hear a lot from liberal jurists and their quarter-wit cheerleaders in the pundit and social media worlds about how we have to interpret rights reasonably.
No, no, no, no, no.
That is utterly and completely wrong. The whole point of listing a right within our Constitutions Bill of Rights is that its beyond discussion, meaning some bureaucrat cannot infringe upon it because his pea-brain has decided that it makes sense to do so. Whats a reasonable exercise of religion or reasonable speech? Constitutionally, the question makes no sense. Liberals hate that they cant reason our rights down to a tiny nub thats too small to interfere with their dreams of power and control.
Rights arent a favor the government extends to us in its wise benevolence. Our rights existed in us from the moment of our creation, and they are inalienable. The Bill of Rights is not there to list for us what rights we have been granted. Its to provide the government with a partial list of our fundamental rights and to warn it to keep its grubby mitts off them.
The only thing worse than seeing things within the Constitution which arent there is refusing to see things that manifestly are. Only liberals can look at an amendment reading the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed and see blank parchment.
That windy hack John Paul Stevens is back, making the rounds proposing an awesome solution for the problem with the Second Amendment. The problem to liberals, of course, is that it ensures that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Stevens solution is to amend the Second Amendment to nullify it, and at least his current campaign seeks to change the Constitution the right way by amendment. Of course, hes only doing that because his reflexive liberal attempt to impose a reasonability test on this fundamental right, and thus transform it from a right into a privilege, failed.
The mainstream media loves the idea of a former Supreme Court justice railing against flyover state rubes presuming to exercise rights without the permission of their liberal urban betters. But having this elderly jurist on television, even while being tossed the softest of softballs, is doing him no favor. Its painfully clear that Justice Stevens is utterly ignorant of the last two decades of detailed and careful legal scholarship on the Second Amendments origins and history. Its frankly embarrassing to see him on a public platform when he clearly has no idea what hes talking about.
While we can forgive Stevens, we should not be so charitable about those still on the bench who either do not understand, or do not care about, our Constitution. Our Constitution, and the legitimacy it fosters, have created a uniquely just and stable society. Lets not throw that away just to check off a few items from the progressive bucket list.
Judges, even on the Supreme Court, can be impeached.
The hated EXEMPT Congress and the EXEMPT SCOTUS
are ONLY EXEMPT because of their violations of
the Constitution and Law.
America with all Equal under the Law is DEAD.
While this column is accurate, it misses the fact that Scotus has amended the constitution dozens of times, such that the written constitution is not the supreme law. No, the supreme law is embodied in our Frankenstein Constitution.
In short, she and her leftist allies have no pertinent point to make. What they want is simply to get more people who look and act like them into positions they are not qualified for. Like Sotomayor.
Kurt is all wrong. The UNDERSTAND the Constitution and have been using the "nuances" in it to destroy it for decades.
Okay, maybe he didn't write the headline. But. Any assertion that those devils don't understand what they are doing is naive at best.
Pretty unfair to Beiber. I don't recall he ever made any claim to understand physics.
Liberals(socialists/communists)understand our Constitution is a big impediment to their agenda.
For success, they have to eliminate or erode at least 3 things.
-The constitution- the family- and personal property rights.
And you can see this attempted erosion on a daily basis now, in all 3 areas.-tom
Read the title again and then think about it. He is exactly right. That does not mean the rats don't know what they are doing.
Why would you need to "understand" something you believe is blocking progress?
The payoff line:
"Liberals hate that they cant reason our rights down to a tiny nub thats too small to interfere with their dreams of power and control."
Cha-Ching! We have a winner!
Nor did he ever use physics, when convenient, to justify imposing legal policy on other citizens.
Liberals, being evolutionary humanists, assume that the "elite" of today far surpass in morality and intellect, anyone that has existed before,
and therefore shouldn't be restrained by the writings and laws written in the past.
Reminds me of the monkey whacking Simba on the head with a stick. Simba asks what that was for, and the baboon responds with "it doesn't matter, it was in the past!"

Wow - Sonya sure looks like lumpy potatoes in that picture!
Just look at two recent events of "racism" involving Clive Bundy and the owner of the Clippers. I am not getting into whether or not these men made "racist" statements or hold "racist" views. I don't really care if they do or not.
Let's assume they do hold these views, and they express them. So what? Have the thoughtcrime statutes been passed? Is free speech illegal? And, what should the punishment be for such a crime? Loss of all rights and property, of course.
Truly, the United States has descended into a perfect hell of political correctness run amok. Say the wrong thing and lose everything.
The question is, why haven't Louis Farakhan, Jesse Jackson, Snoop? Dog?, Obama, Holder, Al Sharpton and on and on lost everything?
Leftists DO understand the Constitution...and why they utterly hate and despise that sacred document.
Why do they reject the Constitution? It does not allow them to transform America to their communist "utopia".
She sure does
That is true. Thinking about the way the Constitution is stored and venerated at the DC National Archives building, it makes me think that one day the people of this country will protect and defend the words of the Constitution they way it is protected and defended in the bullet and bomb-proof enclosure filled with nitrogen.
Just a thought but wouldn't that be nice?

The Harvesting Opportunity Permit Scheme (Great Britain) – or HOPS (GB) – was founded in 1989 as a department of the National Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs (NFYFC) England & Wales. The primary aim was to provide youth experience to students from Eastern Europe through work placements with UK employers in the agricultural and horticultural industries. HOPS (GB) became a vital source of labour for the employers it worked with, and by 2004 it became clear that providing labour was its' primary function. HOPS (GB) became HOPS Labour Solutions in 2005 to better reflect its' role as a labour provider. In 2010 the HOPS department of NFYFC was incorporated into HOPS Labour Solutions Limited to provide the business with a more suitable structure and facilitate the opening of a branch office in Poland. HOPS (Poland) Sp. z.o.o. was founded in June 2010 to manage and oversee part of the recruitment. HOPS Labour Solutions Limited is wholly owned by NFYFC and is based at the NFYFC headquarters at Stoneleigh Park. HOPS is licensed to recruit labour for agriculture by the Gangmasters Licensing Authority. During 2011, with the imminent cessation of the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme at the end of 2013, HOPS developed a welfare-to-work programme on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions, to place jobseekers into seasonal work. The Education Department holds City and Guilds Accreditation and has run schemes in Kent, Worcestershire and Lincolnshire. HOPS Education expanded into apprenticeships during 2014 and this programme continues to grow. HOPS have historically placed skilled workers for their member farms, and a formal Recruitment Department was formed in 2013. HOPS Recruitment operates two models of recruitment: a purely online business model, and a competitive bespoke recruitment service. This has been a resounding success, so much so that HOPS has rolled it out to the wider market and redeveloped it to meet these needs. As with the seasonal agricultural labour market, HOPS strives to be a market leader in the field of skilled agricultural and horticultural recruitment.
Working together to tackle modern slavery. . .
Modern Slavery is a global problem and international crime affecting millions of people worldwide, including many victims in the UK.
The Modern Slavery Act 2015 became law on 26 March 2015 and is amongst the first Acts in the world specifically tackling modern slavery. The new legislation significantly enhances support and protection for victims of slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour and human trafficking.
Hops Labour Solutions Ltd works closely with its overseas partners and UK host employers to ensure that its workers do not fall victim to this type of crime. We are registered with the Gang Masters Licensing Authority and the Association of Labour Providers and regularly audit our overseas partners and host employers to monitor the wellbeing of our workers.
