Beaches of Barcelona.
The summer is here and we hope you enjoy it with Be Hostels in Barcelona! The one of the greatest things that has summer comparing to any other season, is the opportunity to go to the beach! You have a choice between many beaches of Barcelona, and now Be Hostels will tell you about them.
Barceloneta is the most famous beach in Barcelona and is the closest one to the city center. If you walk to Colom at the end of Ramblas you have about a 15 walk to the beach. The Barceloneta is a triangular spit of land that cuts into the sea boats in the old harbour, or Barcelona's Port Vell, on one side, and sandy beach on the other. The Barceloneta was once the home of fishermen, people associated with the fishing trade and the metal industry, and is now one of the city's most visited and popular districts. Along the beach and inside the neighborhood there are a lot of seafood restaurants, modern baras, as well as traditional ones in narrow streets.
Barceloneta beach can get very busy during the summer, so if you don't like to be surrounded by a lot of people, check out others.
Metro : L4 Barceloneta
The next one from Barceloneta is Icaria beach, it begins from Port Olimpic. It's usually quieter than Barceloneta during the summer months, that's why it's more like a family place, although the area is full of different bars. It's worth visiting if you want more space and relax.
Metro: L4 Ciutadella Vila Olimpica Turn right on exiting the metro and walk towards the twin towers. 10 minutes walk from metro
The Nova Mar Bella, which extends for 500 meters is very popular with women, that's why it has a name like a "women beach". The Nova Mar Bella is one of the Barcelona's beaches with an area for people with disabilities, featuring all the necessary amenities to help people into and out of the water and make the most of their time on the beach.
Metro: L4 Selva de Mar or El Maresme/Fòrum
Barcelona's Mar Bella beach is the young people's beach. It extends for about half a kilometer and is one of favorites places of young people, many of whom come here every weekend. If you like watersports, this beach is definitely for you! There you can do windsurfing, kayaking and rent sport catamarans. Nearby you will find a sports and diving center.
Metro: L4, Poblenou or Selva de Mar
Barcelona's "Olympic" beach. Extending for nearly 600 metres, this is one of the beaches that was created for the 1992 Olympic Games, when Barcelona regained its seafront. The Bogatell Beach is particularly popular with the older generation. Together with Platja de la Nova Icària, it is one of the finest beaches inherited from the Olympic Games.
Metro: L4, Poblenou or Llacuna
The newest beach. 380 metres in length, this beach was created in 2006. This makes it the newest beach on the coastline of the Catalan capital. Situated next to la Nova Mar Bella, it offers the most essential services and facilities.
Metro: L4, Selva de Mar
Barcelona's most emblematic beach. Together with La Barceloneta, Sant Sebastià is a beach with a long tradition within Barcelona.It is the favourite of the locals, especially among the older age group and also very popular with foreign visitors.
Metro : L4 Barceloneta
And finally, of course, the beach, where our Be Dream Hostel is situated! Living in the city center in any of other Be Hostels is great too, but you are the lucky one, if you choose Be Dream Hostel to stay in! The beach, that is 5 minutes walking from the hostel, is really amazing, it extends for about 700 meters and has a width about 25 meters. It´s not very crowded, so you can find your own place to relax on the golden sand. And it´s just 15 mins by metro from center!
Metro: L2 Pep Ventura

"Google is considering ditching the U.S. Chamber of Commerce out of frustration with its support for legislation that would force Internet companies to police websites that peddle pirated movies and fake Viagra. The rumblings of a defection - a potentially serious blow to one of Washington's most powerful lobbies - come weeks after Yahoo left the Chamber in October, largely over its support of Sen. Patrick Leahy's online piracy bill, the PROTECT IP Act." What, the US Chamber of Commerce is a front for the pharmaceutical and content industries? I'm shocked.

RE[3]: So What
by JAlexoid on Sun 6th Nov 2011 15:25 UTC in reply to "RE[2]: So What"
Rather than being completely arbitrary about what laws it follows and what it ignores, it should merely be consistent and follow all of them.
You are overly emotional on this topic.
It's Google's right to strongly disagree with a law and fight it. And if you have any proof of Google "ignoring"* then you should contact the appropriate authorities, otherwise stop making s***t up.
* - if you ignore the law - you're breaking it.

Red-lored amazon
(Amazona autumnalis)
Facts about this animal
This is a fairly large amazon with a total lenght of 34 cm and a body-weight of around 420g.
The plumage is mostly green, paler below, and with the lower half of the outer tail feathers pale yellow-green. There are usually some yellow feathers on the face, crown and hindneck are pale blue scaled with black, and there is some black scaling on the chest. The outer webs of the primary wing feathers are blue, and there is a red speculum on the wing. Lores and forehead are distinctively red.
The iris is orange, brownish in immature birds, cere and bas of bill yellowish-horn, tip of bill grey, the bare eye-ring is pale yellow, and the legs and feet are dull grey.
Outside the breeding season, red-lored amazons have communal roosts and travel in pairs, groups or large flocks, in which pairs are evident, foraging mostly in the crowns of large trees.
The nest is an unlined hollow in a tall, usually dead tree. The clutch consists usually of 3 to 4 eggs.
Red-lored amazons feed on figs, seeds, leaf buds, and some cultivated fruits such as mangoes or citrus.
Did you know?
that there are four subspecies of the red-lored amazon? The nominata A, a. autumnalis from Mexico and Nicaragua, and the Bay Islands of Honduras, A, a. salvini from Nicaragua down to W Colombia and NW Venezuela, A, a. lilacina from Ecuador, and the ndiademed amazon, A, a. diadema, from NW Brazil.

Why do zoos keep this animal
Amazons are conspicuous and attractive birds, which are good ambassador species for the conservation of neotropical forests. They have an interesting anatomy and behaviour, are intelligent birds able to mimic human speech and even to associate words with their meanings, and are thus also of educational interest. Zoos may keep amazon parrots also for animal welfare reasons as they may have to take care of confiscated birds, or former pet birds.

Snare a prize barramundi during the Northern Territory's 'build-up'. Lasting from October to December, this pre-monsoon season brings a barra bonanza to the billabongs and estuaries of the Top End. Discover the fishing hot-spots around Darwin Harbour or share the shore with professional anglers on the Daly River. Take a heli-fishing trip to Adelaide River or find the promised barra waters along Mary River. In World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park, you can cast your line from a boat in South and East Alligator River. Hire a boat, join a fishing charter with experienced guides or stay at a remote fishing lodge. However you angle it, a fishing holiday in the build-up offers both barramundi and the wild, natural beauty of the Top End.
From Darwin, you can take your pick of fishing charters and competent captains. Darwin Harbour itself is great for tuna and queenfish, but you'll have to travel a little further for barramundi. Lure a few unsuspecting saltwater barramundi amongst the black jewfish and fingermark in nearby Shoal Bay. Or take a multi-day chartered adventure to Daly River for legendary estuary fishing. Sitting more than 200km south-west of Darwin, the Daly River attracts anglers from all over the county eager to bag a super-sized barramundi.
In a three-day tour, you can also reach the Mary River system, which flows to the coast at Chambers Bay, and offers incredible fishing on all tides. Both the river and floodplains are great for barra, but you'll hit the barramundi jackpot at Shady Camp, Corroboree Billabong, Hardies Lagoon and Tommycut Creek. The waters also teem with sleepy cod, saratoga and oxeye herring.
Get a new perspective on your fishing expeditions on a heli-fishing trip from Darwin to Adelaide River. Take in awe-inspiring aerial views of the Northern territory's wetlands and watch buffalos and feral pigs bound away as you land the chopper. Cast your lure from a croc-safe spot and listen for the trademark boofing sound of the barramundi hitting the line.
In World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park, your fishing trip comes complete with spectacular scenery, migratory birds, crocodiles and wildlife. Join a half or full day fishing tour up South Alligator or East Alligator River from Jabiru. Yellow Waters on South Alligator River is a well-known barramundi haunt, particularly in the build-up to the wet season.
You'll find rich barra stocks on Victoria River, the Northern Territory's longest river, which sits about 250km west of Katherine. Drive the Savannah Way to Timber Creek, the nearest angling access point.
In Arnhem Land, you can stay in a nature-lodge and join a barramundi or sports fishing safari in the teeming ocean, rivers and inland lagoons. Fly from Darwin to the remote fishing paradise Cape Don on the Cobourg Peninsula. Here giant barramundi share the waters with mangrove jack, queenfish, giant trevally, mackerel, tuna, golden snapper, coral trout, cod, barracuda and jewfish.
As well as a time of barra abundance, the build-up is also when a number of the state's fishing tournaments are held. Join the Hummingbird Corroboree Park Challenge on Mary River in October. Or catch seven species of fish in three days at the Saltwater Fly Fishing Challenge on Darwin Harbour. It plays hosts to the Gold Billfish Classic later the same month. Compete to hook the biggest barramundi in the Barra Bash on the Roper River in October. In November, you can battle barracuda, sailfish and marlin at Arnhem Land's Gove Game Classic.
Head to the Northern Territory in the build-up, for a fishing holiday where the big barramundi hardly ever get away.

- Eight years on from the collapse of Lehman Brothers, & macro comparisons with 2008 can thankfully be diluted. Yet, policy rates in 2017 will stay close to the floor, while, separately, political risk in the developed economies - largely absent in 2008 - is building
- The US Fed remains the test case for whether central banks can ever 'normalise' rates. We expect it to try, but fail, peaking out at a far lower policy rate (1%) than in past recoveries.
- We update our 'Policy Looseness Analysis' to gauge how monetary & fiscal mixes will shift in 2017. By taking explicit account of QE, true US & UK policy rates may be as low as -4½% & -2½%.
- In the long term, the Fed & BoE looking to peak out at lower than 'normal' rates can pull on the other monetary lever: 'QT'. This may go some way to removing the unintended consequences of QE.
- Meantime, without convincing recoveries, any contagion, unlike 2008-09, may be political rather than financial. Hopefully, governments in 2017 will help avert this by offering fiscal solutions, taking the policy 'baton' back from the central banks...
Adapting to the BoE's corporate-bond buying programme

Regarding the Capital One religious moron, it may be far more pervasive than just the simple denial of an atheist-themed personalized credit card, and the excuse of Cap One about the dictates of MasterCard and Visa might have more truth to it than was let on in the story. There are some waves being made within the erotica and pornography communities, where MasterCard has become increasingly unwilling to accept charges to some "adult" websites because of a skewed sense of what is "right" or "wrong," although this is clearly motivated by religious conservatives and not what is legal or otherwise acceptable. (For example, the website www.mindcontroltheatre.com announced about a year ago that MasterCard was no longer processing payments for their goods...)

Real-World Review
2015 Subaru Outback: First Drive Review
Subaru is a little like those odd kids from high school. In fact, maybe Subaru Outback owners are those kids. Either way, Subaru has typically been more like a marching-band kid than a cheerleader. Whether you see that as a positive or a negative probably says a lot about you and your likelihood of buying an all-new 2015 Subaru Outback. Subaru and the Outback are about to cross over into the cool kids' circle, and it's not as dramatic a transition as you might think.
On the one hand, the revised 2015 Outback is quirky, so direct comparisons with other car-based SUVs are difficult. On the other hand, it's really no different than a dozen car-based SUVs such as the Mazda CX-5 or the new Jeep Cherokee.
Even Subaru admits that having a car that looks capable is almost as important as having an Outback that can actually handle things once the pavement ends. To that end, the newest Outback gets some pretty typical Outback styling details -- features such as big fog lights, roof rails, a big grille and tall side windows all communicate a rugged look to the average shopper.
All Grown Up
There's something about this new Subaru Outback that's kind of sneaking under the radar like that dorky kid who suddenly got super-cool over the summer. For 2015, the Outback finally looks mature, like a grown-up's car that's maybe even a little classy.
We've always thought of the Outback as kind of a caricature, a car for people who want to shout "Hey everyone, I'm a runner (or cyclist or whatever)!" rather than for folks who are actually avid outdoor types. But the Outback seems to have stopped trying so hard. It now knows what it is and is OK with it, and the new look reflects that confidence.
A few tangible upgrades help, too. The 2015 Outback is bigger inside: It's 2-inches wider with 2 extra cu ft. of cargo storage. It also has much nicer materials inside and has ditched the Casio-keyboard-era gadgets.
Updated Tech
A 6.2-in touchscreen audio system is standard on Outback 2.5i models. It includes features that we've come to expect even in low-priced cars, such as smartphone integration, Bluetooth, and integration of third-party apps such as Aha Radio and Pandora Internet Radio.
The optional upgraded navigation unit gets a 7-in screen and incorporates spoken commands as well as pinch and swipe controls. We still think the head-unit look is a little generic, but it's much nicer than anything Subaru has offered before and really does get the job done. Navigation commands are easy to use and logical to execute.
Subaru gave the audio systems a serious upgrade. Even the standard system on the popular Premium version sounds good. Base/2.5i cars have a Clarion head unit with 4 speakers and 172-watt output. Premium cars have Fujitsu Ten head unit with 6 speakers with 192 watts. The base unit is adequate, but the Premium system is better with a fuller sound and more distinct bass
Audiophiles will want to check out the new Harman Kardon 12-speaker system. It uses GreenEdge speakers and an amplifier that delivers the equivalent of 576 watts. It sounds great with deep, defined bass and clearly separated highs and mids. Audiophiles know the sound quality of satellite radio is terrible, but Subaru's system manages to make even satellite radio sound good.
Off-Road for Real
It's not all fun and gadgets; the new Outback also takes its rugged roots seriously. For example, the new Outback is fitted with a very SUVlike feature called X-Mode, which is standard on all Outbacks. X-Mode incorporates features such as hill-descent control and hill-start assist and gives the new Outback more capability in conditions from ice and snow to mud and sand.
We tried X-Mode in the hills and mountains near the Three Sisters Wilderness area in Oregon, and we have to admit that it works well, easing us down rutted roads most RAV4 owners wouldn't attempt. The 2015 Outback also has 8.7 inches of ground clearance, which is more than many other car-based SUVs. We're not saying the car will shame a Jeep Wrangler, but the Outback is the real deal when it comes to venturing off-road. The low point? The suspension is firmer than before, so hard impacts can really be felt inside the cabin.
On-Road Feel
The real beauty of this new Subaru is how it feels on the road. Handling is better than before, and the interior is remarkably quiet even at highway speeds.
Most of the time, the combination of a stiffer suspension and off-road-friendly tires works, but the Achilles heel of this car is an old, patched-up and uneven stretch of blacktop. Lots of medium- to large-road imperfections upset the Outback's ride to the point where we suddenly see the wisdom of driving a soft-riding SUV such as the Toyota Highlander.
Engines and MPG
For 2015, the Outback's engines are essentially the same. Buyers have their choice of a 2.5-liter flat-4 or a 3.6-liter flat-6. Subaru says that the 2.5-liter engine has been revised to make it quieter, lighter and more efficient.
We prefer the 256-horsepower 6-cylinder engine to the 175 hp provided by the 2.5, but that adds to the price (the 256-hp six is only offered with the Limited trim) and lowers the fuel economy. The 2.5-liter engine should deliver 25 miles per gallon in the city and 33 mpg on the highway. Knock about 5 mpg off each number if you go with the 3.6-liter engine.
Price Matters
The base price is just over $25,000 for an Outback 2.5i. It includes the X-Mode system, the touchscreen audio system and plenty of standard features. The 2.5i Premium is about $2,000 more and includes more comfort and convenience features, such as dual-zone climate control and fog lights. The 3.6R Limited is $33,000, but you can still add options on top of that.
One option that's worth checking out is Subaru's new EyeSight system. It includes adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking and lane-departure warning. The Outback will even bring itself to a full stop with no driver input if you're traveling at 30 miles per hour or less. All of these features, plus adaptive cruise control, help make the new Subaru Outback feel like a car for everyone, rather than just for a handful of triathletes, New Englanders and paddleboarders.
An Outback for Everyone
Thankfully, the new Outback still works for outdoorsy, athletic people by including real, useful off-road features, extra cargo space, a flexible roof-rack system, and a feature that lets you lock your keys in the car and get back in with a PIN code. It's these kinds of thoughtful features that will keep active folks buying Subarus. The improved quality and interior upgrades mean that the rest of us can get one, too.
Plenty of the rest of us are doing just that. In 2007, Subaru was selling about 170,000 vehicles per year, but by 2013, that number jumped up to nearly half a million. Remember that this period includes some of the toughest years for new-car sales, so Subaru is clearly doing something right.
If we're being completely honest, we have to admit that many of those weird kids from high school end up being the most interesting adults. The 2015 Subaru Outback is similar. It has grown up to be one of the more interesting choices in the world of car-based SUVs. Initially, it was kind of goofy and odd, but nowadays it's useful and interesting.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — As Ohio faced Monday's deadline to expand unemployment benefits and receive $176 million in federal stimulus money, state officials had not applied for the money and the General Assembly had not scheduled any sessions to take any action.
The federal government set aside $7 billion for unemployment compensation for states that broaden their unemployment programs. The provision is part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
"The idea was to reward states who update laws to increase access to benefits," said Wayne Vroman, an unemployment compensation expert under contract with the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services.
But Gov. John Kasich says it makes no sense for the state to make long-term changes to a fiscally-damaged system for a one-time payment, spokesman Rob Nichols said. And the jobs department, which administers the state's unemployment compensation system, is not seeking any changes, department spokesman Ben Johnson said.
"We don't feel it's wise to expand benefits at a time when the trust fund is already $2.6 billion in debt," Johnson said.
Sen. Joe Schiavoni, D-Canfield, introduced a bill that would allow Ohio to receive the money by providing benefits to workers who leave their jobs for family reasons and by extending benefits to people in approved job training. But his bill never came to a vote.
Senate President Tom Niehaus, R-New Richmond, who determines which bills are called in the Senate, was concerned that costs of the long-term changes could outweigh the benefits of one-time funding, spokesman John McClelland said.
Ohio's unemployment compensation program provides short-term income to unemployed workers who lose their jobs through no fault of their own. The weekly benefit is typically half the worker's previous wages up to a set maximum, based on the number of eligible dependents. Benefits may be paid for up to 26 weeks — longer for those who lose their jobs before Dec. 31.
Tamara Chavis, 43, of Columbus relies on unemployment compensation to support her four children. She said she thinks the state should "definitely" take action to expand benefits and net the federal dollars.
"We're going to need the benefits to be extended until we get back on our feet," Chavis said. "It's just a no-brainer."
Chavis worked in property management and leasing for seven years until the real estate market collapsed and left her unemployed last year. Now she spends time updating her resume and looking for job openings at the Central Ohio Workforce Investment Corporation, a nonprofit that works to pair employers with the unemployed. Expanded benefits could allow her to receive more money to care for her children.
So far, 40 states have changed their unemployment compensation systems to receive the federal money, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Of those, Ohio and five others applied for only one-third of their share of the $7 billion. Ohio received its third — $88.2 million — after changing how it calculates benefits by incorporating a worker's most recent earnings.
To receive the remaining two-thirds, the state would have to choose two options from among several: Allow people seeking part-time work to qualify for benefits, extend benefits to those in approved job training programs, increase the allowance for dependents, and provide benefits to people who leave work for certain family reasons, such as domestic violence or transfer of a spouse.
Proponents say the changes are necessary so more Ohioans have access to benefits while they get back on their feet.
Zach Schiller, research director for the think tank Policy Matters Ohio, said the changes would modernize the system for today's economy.
"One-fifth of Ohio workers are part-time. It's becoming more regular, with the bulk of part-time workers being women," Schiller said. "Workers also need more retraining nowadays."
Schiller said the $176 million would help Ohio pay back money the state has borrowed from the federal government since 2009 to keep benefits flowing during tough economic times. He said the funds could reduce the state's interest payments by $7 million annually. As for the argument that Ohio would be stuck paying more in the long term, he doesn't buy that.
"Congress didn't want states to grab the money and run, so it didn't allow them to sunset benefits," Schiller said. "But it also didn't require a specific time period for those to be maintained."
Schiller said Ohio's General Assembly could review the changes after a few years and decide to keep, modify or repeal them if they were too expensive.
Taxes on employers pay for unemployment compensation. Last year, employers paid $1.16 billion to the state, Vroman said. Estimates for an expanded system are uncertain, but it could cost businesses up to $30 million annually, he said.
Ohio Chamber of Commerce President Andy Doehrel said businesses aren't necessarily opposed to expanding benefits. He said the chamber is in favor of certain provisions, such as providing more money for unemployed people with dependents.
But, he said, "We would want to be very, very aware of the long-term impact on the system. Some of these (changes) could run billions of dollars a year."
Meanwhile, Ohio's unemployment rate has been rising. It was 9 percent in July, up from 8.8 percent in June — the second monthly increase after a two-year decline. In the week ending Aug. 13, Ohio had 529,000 unemployed workers and 213,000 of them getting unemployment benefits.

jkwilson78 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 59 designs submitted by 23 freelance designers.
I need a logo designed with the "Web 2.0" look for a plug-in for the FireFox web browser.
Simple, catchy design not cartoonish or too corporate looking.
Affiliate Espionage
Desired Color Scheme:
green, blue, orange
Desired Style:
Web 2.0 style soft colors simple but destintive design
Accepted File Formats:
Standard Web Formats (.jpg, .gif or .png); Layered Formats (.psd or .tiff)
This logo will be used on a web site giving away a free plug-in for the FireFox web browser.
The site is AffiliateEspionage.com (There is currently no site on this domain)
It should be designed in the "web 2.0" style with soft colors and not cartoonish or overly corporate. This logo might also be used on "software box" style graphics and should be easily resizable in graphics editing software.
I don't necessarily want the logo to incorporate "fox" images or themes as this plug-in may very well be developed to work with Internet Explorer at some point so I don't want the logo to be themed in such a way that it is locked down to one particular platform.
Colors: Some of the colors that I prefer are green, blue and orange. But you don't need to use these colors exclusively or all together.
Graphic Format: Standard web graphic formats (jgp, gif, etc) I would also like to have PSD files as well with transparent background so it can easily fit over any web page background.
I will only make payment through PayPal.
Based on feedback, here are more details about what the plugin actually does.
This plug-in is specifically designed for marketers who use pay per click advertising like Google Adwords.
It analyzes information about each advertiser like their ads, rank, keywords they show up for, the affiliate networks they promote, and other competitive intelligence data and then overlays that information directly in the search results underneath each ad.
There is an existing FireFox plugin called SEO For FireFox that performs the data overlay functions similar to my plugin but for the free search results not the ads on a search results page.
Here is a link to this plugin:
While the information my plugin provides is very different the concept of how it overlays data is very similar. There are a lot of other features but that is the basic purpose of my plugin...to help with market research and competitive intelligence.
Please let me know if I can provide any more information that will be helpful.

To Understand Rand Paul, Study Ron Paul
The Ron Paul newsletter also denounced the government for creating a national holiday recognizing Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. According to the Ron Paul newsletter, M.L.K Day was actually "hate whitey day."
[Publisher's Commentary]
Is Rand Paul, the self-declared Libertarian, a racist? His father and fellow Libertarian, Rep. Ron Paul had already provided many clues in the past.
Rand Paul, newly-elected Republican Senate candidate in Kentucky, thanks to the Tea Party, says government should not overregulate private businesses; he believes that restaurants should be free not to serve Black folk if that's what they want to do.
In interviews last week, dealing with issues of race and civil rights, Rand Paul kept prefacing his comments by insisting he's not a racist. He tried to play verbal gymnastics but Rachel Maddow destroyed him.
Why should anyone be surprised that Rand Paul harbors obnoxious views and desires on race matters? His father, Ron Paul, made his own views clear judging by several articles that were published in the 1980s and the 1990s in The Ron Paul Political Newsletter.
Following race riots in Los Angeles, the newsletter opined that order was restored only when it came time for Black folks to pick up their welfare checks.
Another article from his newsletter, in 1992, concluded that 95% of Black males in Washington, D.C., were either "semi-criminal or entirely criminal."
This view was expressed shortly after the turmoil that erupted in Los Angeles following the acquittal of the police officers who viciously beat up Rodney King, the unarmed motorist.
The newsletter also denounced the government for creating a national holiday recognizing Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. According to the Ron Paul newsletter, M.L.K Day was actually "hate whitey day."
Articles in the newsletter claimed Dr. King was a world class philanderer who "beat up" his paramours. According to Ron Paul's newsletter, Dr. King even seduced "under age girls and boys" and made a pass at Ralph Abernathy, his legendary colleague in the Civil Rights struggle.
Of course, Ron Paul later claimed that even though he was the publisher of the newsletter, he did not personally author the offending articles and was unaware of them. A racist and a liar to boot.
What's more, Ron Paul had never sought to repudiate the articles until he was exposed during his 2008 Presidential run. His incredible excuse was that publishers don't read every article in their publications. What's more, he's never --up today-- made any attempt to reveal who the authors of the racist articles were; perhaps because the author was actually Ron Paul himself.
Another article attacked Black activists who had agitated for renaming New York City to honor Dr. King. The activists, according to Ron Paul's newsletter, deserved to live in "Welfaria" or "Zooville" or "Rapetown" or "DirtBurg" or "Lazyapple."
So, evidently, the crap did not drop too far from the tree. To understand Rand Paul, study Ron Paul.

Building an empire, but how and where?
January 4, 2013 5 Comments
As you might have read in my previous post, I set myself some goals this year. One of these goals is to move my blog to a more permanent location. I started out on Geekswithblogs.net, but after a few months I've moved to this location. But now I want to move to a more permanent location, including my own domain name(s).
All I really need at this moment is a WordPress host. No need for extra storage (I use Dropbox and SkyDrive for file-storage), or any other stuff (as far as I know). I'm only looking for a WordPress host, with 2 or 3 domain names attached. But what are the options?
One of the options is Azure, where you can rent a virtual machine, or just host your website. One of the advantages of having a virtual machine is that you can manage your own machine. You can use your own machine as file storage, and maybe even to host more services in the future.
One of the disadvantages is the cost of a whole package. If you want to rent a small virtual machine and some storage, your looking at a monthly cost of about € 25,- (around $ 33,-). That's a lot of money. But on the other hand, they'll move your website and storage on hardware failure. So your website will have an almost guarantied up-time.
Web hosting package
Another option is buying a web hosting pack at for example GoDaddy. There you get a WordPress host, unlimited websites, unlimited space and bandwith (a pretty good deal if you ask me), and they also add a free domain name. This looks like the deal I want, except for all the bad stories I heard about GoDaddy…
Just domain name(s)
It's also possible to buy a domain name, and point it to your WordPress.com blog. This can be purchased via WordPress.com. Then your blog is still hosted by WordPress.com, and you still can't use the full potential of a WordPress.org install. On the other hand, WordPress.com is a big player in the market, and how often will it be offline?
That's where YOU come in!
To be honest, I need your help. I'm not that into hosting plans, hosting providers, etc. So if you can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it! You can leave a comment below, or you can Tweet or mail me.

There's more to the platform wars than mobile - Android is starting to take off in non-mobile markets in a massive way - Internet of Things, Television (Chromecast), etc. To date Linux has been the dominant OS but Android is now taking some embedded designs which would have run Linux. The effective decoupling of Android from carriers for non-mobile markets + the richness of tools and the existing developer ecosystem will likely cement Android as the definitive open source OS of the next decade. This will have pluses for Google but also unintended consequences.
Repeat after me: Android is just as much 'Linux' as Ubuntu, Debian, Red Hat, or anything else that uses the Linux kernel. Technically, a better term would be 'Linux distribution', since Linux in and of itself is just a kernel. Wikipedia defines 'Linux distribution' quite well:
A Linux distribution (often called distro for short) is a member of the family of Unix-like operating systems built on top of the Linux kernel. Such distributions are operating systems including a large collection of software applications such as word processors, spreadsheets, media players, and database applications. These operating systems consist of the Linux kernel and, usually, a set of libraries and utilities from the GNU Project, with graphics support from the X Window System. Distributions optimized for size may not contain X and tend to use more compact alternatives to the GNU utilities, such as BusyBox, uClibc, or dietlibc.
Android is a Linux distribution, and is an addition to the Linux ecosystem - not a challenger. Painting it as such is just a sign of ignorance.

Crunch, Gold's Gym, 24 Hour Fitness and LA Fitness were just a few of the many club companies that promoted their health club mobile apps this year.
In addition, several software companies began to offer mobile software for personal trainers, studio owners and corporate fitness trainers.
Apple's iPad is becoming more useful in clubs, too. Fit View, San Jose, CA, is one of the companies that developed an application this year specifically for the iPad that allows fitness coaches to design workouts and allows members to track their performance.

The Boonville Pirates basketball team learned firsthand that shooting only 18 percent from the three-point arc and 22 percent from the foul line probably wasn't going to get it done Tuesday night against Hallsville in the opening round of the Class 3 District 8 Tournament at Ashland.
Although the Pirates wound up shooting 40 percent from the field for the game, head coach Scott Floyd said his team struggled shooting the ball while missing several layups. Hallsville, meanwhile, converted on five three-point shots and 8 of 14 attempts from the foul line for a 55-49 victory and a spot in the semifinals against top-seeded Blair Oaks.
The Falcons defeated Centralia Tuesday night by a score of 61-42 while No. 2 Southern Boone escaped with a 54-51 win over Versailles. No. 3 Eugene also won in a shootout against California 84-80.
Blair Oaks and Hallsville will square off on Thursday in the semifinal round starting at 6 p.m., while Southern Boone battles Eugene at 7:30.
On the girls side of the bracket tonight, top-seeded Blair Oaks will face Centralia at 6 p.m. while California battles Versailles at 7:30.
While the loss closed out Boonville's season at 12-13 overall, Floyd said all in all he though the Pirates had a great year.
"I was proud of how we came back from a 4-8 conference finish last year to go 6-6 in the rugged NCMC," Floyd said. "The seniors in Damario, Jay, Gus and Jashon will be sorely missed, but we have some young guys that played some valuable varsity minutes this year along with the fact that we have some good JV players that are expected to step into some varsity roles next year. We have to get back to work over the summers, come together as a team and work hard once the fall rolls around. I can't wait."
Floyd was probably thinking otherwise after watching Hallsville go up by six at 28-22 at the break.
Of course it didn't go sour until the final minute of the half. After tying the game at 22-all with 1:34 left, the Pirates took some time off defensively while allowing Hallsville to come back and hit back-to-back threes to lead by six.
In the first quarter, the Pirates played Hallsville almost even while trailing by just three at 14-11 despite turning the ball over six times and allowing the Indians to go on a 7-0 run during a two-minute stretch. While out-rebounding Hallsville 9-4 in the period, Boonville also hit on 5 of 9 shots from the field.
The third quarter was just as close as the first-two periods with Boonville outscoring Hallsville 14-13. But even while hitting 6 of 11 shots from the field, the Pirates would get no closer than four points after a three by senior Gus Kemp to cut the lead to 36-32 with 2:04 left.
Hallsville, meanwhile, led by as much as nine on two different occasions in the third period at 32-23 with 5:51 left and 41-32 with 48 seconds remaining.
Trailing 41-36 after three quarters of play, the Pirates still had an outside chance to knock off the Indians but that was thrown out the window after Hallsville came out and reeled off six straight points to start the final period to extend the lead to 11 at 47-36.
Of course it didn't help that Boonville started the fourth quarter 0 for 5 from the field. Nonetheless, after cutting the lead to seven at 49-42 with 3:40 left, the Pirates watched Hallsville rally back again to push the lead back up to 10 at 53-43 and 55-45. Then, in the final 30 seconds, Boonville senior Damario Walker scored on back-to-back baskets to make it a six-point ballgame.
Floyd said if his team hits some of those shots or free throws they missed early on, they are in the game.
"We expended a lot of energy trying to get back in the game and I thought we ran out of gas at the end," Floyd said. "Defensively, I thought we did a good job in holding their leading scorers in check, but we let some guys loose on the perimeter and Hallsville was able to connect on some threes to distance themselves and keep a comfortable cushion."
Brandon Beatty led three players in double figures for Hallsville with 14 points while Ryan Long and Sean Wooten added 10 each.
For Boonville, Walker had 13 points along with seven rebounds, three assists and one steal.
Gus Kemp finished the game with nine points, three rebounds, two steals and one assist while Tyler Peterson added nine points, three rebounds and one assist, Tavious Brazil with eight points and 10 rebounds, Jay Barnhart with eight points, four rebounds, two steals and one assist and JT Washington with two points, three rebounds and one assist.

The official Times Square Ball app has just been updated to help you count down to 2013. Not everyone has a chance to be in Times Square for the new year, but at least with this app everyone can (assuming device compatibility) get part of the experience. It's not the smoothest or flashiest thing ever, but the app serves its purpose. You get a nice countdown to the new year, a livestream viewer of Times Square (you can watch the 2012 party currently) and you can even upload a photo to be shown on the big screen if you're lucky.
Sound interesting? You can grab a download for free at the Play Store link above. It probably doesn't do you much good over 10 days out from the party, but you'll have it installed and ready to go for New Years Eve.

Creative Zen Portable Media Centre
Price: $999
Rating: * * *
Website: australia.creative.com
It plays movies, videos, music and photo slideshows, all in a single, handheld device with a 20GB hard disk. Creative's new Zen Portable Media Centre (PMC) is made possible by Microsoft's Portable Media Centre operating system, based on its Windows Mobile platform. Think of it as a hardware incarnation of Windows Media Player. The Zen PMC is the first such product for Microsoft to show off its new platform, but others will follow shortly.
The interface is simple and elegant with a single Windows button to call up the main menu, presenting the option of the type of media you'd like to play. Customising settings are kept to a minimum and limited mainly to equaliser and display options. Everything else is simple.
The Zen PMC connects to a PC using USB 2.0 and requires the latest Windows XP-only Microsoft Media Player 10.0 to transfer files. You can set it to synchronise content automatically upon connection or manually transfer individual files. Although it is promoted as a portable movie player, you are limited to videos you've made yourself or movies downloaded through the internet. Ripping DVDs for transfer to the PMC would technically be illegal, so it's not a direct competitor to portable DVD players in that sense.
If you have a TV tuner card, you can record programs and transfer these to the player. Downloading video to the Zen can be incredibly slow, depending on the format, as it converts these on the fly into something readable by the player. Playback, however, is impressive. The PMC can handle fast-action motion with relative smoothness onscreen.
The display is a 10cm LCD panel, which unfortunately is too reflective for outdoor use. The biggest weakness, though, is that for a portable device it's too large and heavy (340g) to fit into your average pocket.

More generally, the observation applies to pretty much any topic we "discuss" on OSNews.
I was trying to ignore a basketball game on the TV at the restaurant where I was having lunch today, and reflected for a bit on the silliness of fan behavior. People pick a team. Sometimes its because it happens to represent the city where they live. Most often, the reasons are even more arbitrary. But they pick it, for whatever pedestrian and unimportant reason, and they associate themselves with it in some bizarre way which is difficult for me to fathom. They seem to think that the team's winning or losing actually has some bearing upon them and their lives. Perhaps even their value as a person. They think it is important. They've often never trained a day in their lives to play the particular sport. But that doesn't matter because it is their team. It's the ultimate in Us/Them paradigms. And it is a form of insanity, without a doubt. But it's one of those insanities which affects so many people that few recognize it as such. And, of course, some are affected more strongly than others.
I had, about a half hour earlier, posted a defense of one of my statements, which had been misinterpreted by another reader, in a thread which I had not been following closely, but which could likely be summarized as "Linux Rocks and Vista Sucks!/Vista Rocks and Linux Sucks..." and it occurred to me, not for the first time, that the same effect manifests itself here on OSNews. Except the OSes, or DE's, or programming languages, or code formatting style, or licensing choices, or development models, or hardware companies, or applications, or... well, anything else that people can find a way to imprint themselves with... serve in place of the sporting teams. The insanity is still of the same nature. And the ones who rationalize their choices the best are often the most severely impaired.
It nonconstructive. It's predictable. It's boring. It's frustrating. It's very sparse in redeeming social value. It goes on, day after day after day, drawing upon the seemingly inexhaustible energy supplied by the human penchant for thinking in terms of Us and Them. And today... I'm weary of it.
Thanks for listening.

I too have attempted to rationalize this behavior that exists in nearly every human being (some more than others).
My best guess is it is some residual behavior that had benefits in evolution. There is power in numbers, and perhaps the creatures that find a bond based on a similarity (no matter how arbitrary) are more likely to survive the hardships of evolution.
I suppose if an early human lacked this similarity with the rest they could be placed into the "them" group and possibly killed eliminating that strain of DNA.
As bright as many of the people in the world are, it is shocking how few seem to be able to realize they do this. In some ways it handicaps their full potential.
I think it is called "identifying with" that item. Thats where to link to that persons identity comes from. Its the investment of personal identity just like any of the other things in life you identify with.
I'm sure you have a certain identifying traits that if people who know you can associate with you if they were to encounter those traits somewhere else. Why do you have a preferred style of clothing that you wear. Because you can identify with those who would choose to wear such apparel.
Now if I happen to find that particular style of dress deplorable and silly and attack the group of people who wear such 'crap' you would undoubtedly take it personally. At least thats what I would expect as a normal response. That would be because it is an indirect attack on you personal preferences.
The comparison of the OS that a user chooses to use vs. a sports team they choose to side with is quite a bit different IMO.
One of them is a tool you use - the other is mostly just for entertainment.
I don't know about you - but I like to use tools that work the way I want them to.
It's like picking a brand name for a product you purchase - given equal cost, you're going to pick the one that has a history of working better, and being of higher quality.
If someone tells you that brand is crap and makes horrible products, and you know better, you're likely going to say something.
I don't see how that's "identifying" with a product for the sake of it.
It would seem that what you're basically trying to say is that all OSes are created equal, no one can possibly be better than another in any way. Anyone who claims otherwise must just be so obsessed with their favorite OS that they don't know any better.
I'll admit, there's a certain amount of fanboism that occurs, and the statements and falsities that these people make can be ridiculous - but there are definitely real reasons why each OS is unique and different, and probably better than others in their own way. Chances are, these same people really did choose their current OS of choice for a good reason - they just can't seem to express it in an intelligent, convincing way that others can comprehend
I believe there's at least a SELECT missing there

* Energy, defense gain, seen benefiting from Republican win
* Decisive U.S. vote could end uncertainty for markets
* Dow up 1.3 pct, S&P up 1 pct, Nasdaq up 0.6 pct
NEW YORK, Nov 6 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks climbed on Tuesday as some investors bet that Republican Mitt Romney could pull off a surprise victory in the presidential vote, citing gains in defense and energy shares.
Gains were fairly broad-based, but among S&P 500 sectors, energy led the market along with materials and industrial shares, all sectors that rise with the economy.
Defense shares like United Technologies shot higher, raising some market speculation that Romney,, who has called for increased military spending, could be moving ahead of Democratic President Barack Obama in the vote.
The S&P energy sector was up 1.8 percent. United Technologies was up 2.9 percent at $80.17 and Raytheon was up 2.6 percent at $57.93.
``Defense stocks are moving up, and coal stocks are up too, which are two sectors that are going to react more to a Romney victory than a President Obama victory,'' said Jon Najarian, co-founder of optionMONSTER in Chicago. Shares of Arch Coal were up 4.3 percent at $8.71.
Either way, traders said there was agreement that markets wanted a clear winner.
A decisive result in the presidential election would remove a major source of uncertainty that has dogged investors.
``There's been a lot of talk that once the election is decided, no matter how it went, just to the have the uncertainty over would be good for the market,'' said Rick Meckler, president of hedge fund LibertyView Capital Management LLC in Jersey City, New Jersey.
``Really it's a bit of the carryover from the Bush-Gore election.''
Polls showed Obama and Romney in a tight race, with a few battleground states expected to decide the winner. In 2000, Republican George W. Bush won after a drawn-out legal battle over contested votes in his race against Democratic Vice President Al Gore.
The Dow Jones industrial average was up 168.66 points, or 1.29 percent, at 13,281.10. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 14.41 points, or 1.02 percent, at 1,431.67. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 19.20 points, or 0.64 percent, at 3,018.87.
Investors will also closely watch races in the Senate and House of Representatives that could affect the ``fiscal cliff,'' or $600 billion in spending cuts and tax increases that are set to be automatically triggered at the end of the year.
The U.S. fiscal standoff threatens to bring on another recession unless a deal is reached between Congress and the White House.
Stocks began adding to gains around 11:30 a.m. in New York, shortly after the close of European markets. E-mini futures contracts, a contract based on the S&P 500 index, also jumped at that time.
Among other big gainers, shares of AOL Inc jumped 13.2 percent to $40.53 after it reported higher-than-expected revenue and profit on the strongest advertising growth the company has seen in seven years.

text: Not only have we completed many projects this past semester, but we also have many more changes to come within this fiscal year. The Help Desk will be upgrading the hardware available to students in the computer labs located in Science 115, Math 104, and Fine Arts 206. These labs will have all new hardware and the operating system will be updated to Windows 7 Professional with the Microsoft Office 2010 application suite. The labs aren't the only things that will be changing.The Help Desk will also be replacing approximately 250 computers on campus this fiscal year. Administrative Computing will be changing the way student billing statements are viewed. The new format will be much easier to read in that it is not sorted based on when a transaction took place, but rather what category it falls under. This category view will be a lot simpler and easier to read. Administrative Computing has also made a "Net Price Calculator" available to students. This is a tool that allows students to calculate the estimated cost for their semester and also shows them what financial aid they might qualify for.

Photojournalist gangraped in heart of Mumbai, colleague beaten up
A young woman photojournalist was allegedly gang-raped, while on an assignment with a male colleague in south Mumbai on Thursday. The Mumbai Police have realeased the sketches of the 5 suspects on basis of inputs given by her colleague.mumbai Updated: Aug 23, 2013 12:52 IST
Out on an assignment, a young photojournalist was allegedly gang-raped by five men who badly beat up and tied up her male colleague in a deserted south Mumbai factory on Thursday evening in a chilling reminder of the Delhi gang-rape that shook the nation.
Mumbai police commissioner Satyapal Singh said seven to eight men had been rounded up.
However, according to TV reports, police have detained about 20 people suspected of the crime; several others are also being questioned. They also hope to crack the case soon as they have 'good leads' on the suspects.
Meanwhile, the sketches of the 5 suspects have been released by the Mumbai police. The sketches have been prepared from the inputs given by her male colleague.
The victim and her friend were taken to the local Jaslok hospital, where her condition was said to be stable. Hospital authorities said she was initially in a state of shock.
The woman, who is in her early 20s, had gone to the Shakti Mill compound in Worli with her colleague for a feature on old buildings that her publication was planning to run.
Her statement was being recorded after which a case would be registered, joint commissioner of police (law and order) Sadanand Date said. "We have formed teams comprising local police and crime branch to investigate the matter," he said.
Soon after 7pm the girl, accompanied by a male colleague arrived at the spot, which is not very far from the busy Mahalaxmi railway station but is rather deserted, five young men accosted them. They assaulted the man, tied him up and then took turns to rape the woman.
The journalists' cries for help went unheard as no one was around. The crime reportedly took place at around 8pm at the back of the mill compound, where they had arrived by walking along the railway track.
The Worli-Lower Parel belt in Mumbai has several deserted mills, some of which have been developed into commercial establishments.
According to unconfirmed reports, the men tricked the journalists into accompanying them into the mill, away from the railway track, by promising to get them permission to click photographs.
When compared with Delhi, Mumbai is considered a safer city for women. But lately, India's financial capital has been gaining notoriety as far as crime against women is concerned. On Sunday, an American woman was robbed on a local train.

CNet compares Acer's TravelMate 8200 to apple's MacBook Pro, and concludes the Acer wins; but only by a small margin. "The Acer pulled ahead with ample features and superior performance and battery life, then sealed the deal with its lower sticker price. If you're looking for the most connectivity and fastest performance for your dollar, the TravelMate 8200 is the laptop to buy. The MacBook Pro's strengths clearly lie in aesthetics, from its lightweight, eye-pleasing design to its graphics-friendly display to its elegant operating system. And Apple's superior software package could be said to offset the price differential between the MacBook Pro and the TravelMate 8200."

Many important public health indicators are derived from birth certificates. The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) receives birth certificates for all births occurring in the state and also for births to Ohio residents which occurred outside the state. These reports are combined into annual statistical data files which are used to calculate the statistics contained in this section of the ODH website. A variety of measures that relate to maternal and infant characteristics are included. These are generally presented as percentages. Fertility rates and crude birth rates relate the number of births in an area to the number of persons residing in that area.
