I am absolutely happy that my March is kind of loaded by the looks of it. My target at the moment is to review/read 4-6 books a month but I feel disappointed that I've only reviewed 4. Weird that I'm beating myself hard. Anyway, I've gotten a lot of books this month (and it is my first time to order from BookDepo and BookOutlet!!) but then I unhauled like, 70 books! Been selling them locally on a cheaper price (IG handle: @tbbstorePH) and yes, it hurts to let them go but also so liberating to see that my room looks spacey and I have now a reason to buy hard bounds. Hopefully, this would continue as a source of extra moolah. Also, I hate summer.

Take Care of Yourself/
I don't know about you, but I really hoped 2017 would be better than 2016. But man, y'all.
I'm feeling very Liz Lemon right now. I was all into everything going on the first couple of weeks of the new administration but I had to pump the brakes. Burn out is real, and this is definitely going to be a marathon, not a sprint.
It's easy to get discouraged, especially when you see that the dozens of calls you've made to your senators went ignored. (I'm looking at you Lankford and Inhofe.) But caring does make a difference. Some bills have been withdrawn after public outcry (why does this guy hate national parks so much?) so it's important that we keep going.
But it's also ok to unplug. Spend time with your family. Watch tv. (Though I don't recommend watching the West Wing and House of Cards in one night right now. Last night I dreamt I was running a marathon in DC which ended in the Oval Office where I yelled at President Bartlett about how insane it was that Bannon is on the National Security Council as Frank Underwood watched.) Maybe watch something a little lighter. I'm watching Bunheads for the first time so I can keep listening to the Gilmore Guys. I also rely on the Popcast to make me laugh every week.
And I take a bath every single night. That's something that pretty much everyone told me I'd have to give up once I had a baby, but y'all, that's my sanity saver. Even if it's a quick bath, it's my designated "me-time" every day where I'm not working or taking care of someone else. On a good night I pour a glass of wine, get some lavender dark chocolate, and settle into a bubble bath. Sometimes I read. Other times I set up the iPad and watch some Netflix.
Those baths are how I care for me. The dishes may not get done every night, there may be laundry piled on the couch, but my bath is mandatory.
Find something that you love and do it. Take care of yourself. 2017 may not be an easy one, but we can do it.

A skin disease, ichthyosis, presenting with similar clinical features in golden retriever dogs and humans shares a common genetic basis. The identification of the altered gene in dogs, not only identifies an eighth gene for an ichthyosis type in human called autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI), but also provides for the first time evidences for the involvement of its gene product in the cutaneous barrier. These findings are published online in Nature Genetics (15 January 2012).
This ichthyosis type, belonging to ARCI, results in generalized scaling of the skin and is diagnosed at birth. While the disease is rare in humans, it is very frequent in golden retriever dogs because of inbreeding and it has not been counter-selected.
Catherine André, head of the Canine Genetics team at the Institut de Génétique et Dévelopment de Rennes, and Judith Fischer, head of the Institute for Human Genetics at the University clinics of Freiburg, as well as Dr Eric Guaguere, veterinary dermatology specialist in Lommes, France, and their colleagues took advantage of the unique breeding history of dog populations to identify the genetic alteration(s) responsible for this skin disorder in golden retriever dogs. Authors identified a unique mutation in the PNPLA1 gene, perfectly segregating on a recessive transmission mode. They then analywed the corresponding human gene in a collection of affected individuals for which no molecular cause had previously been identified. They showed that six affected individuals belonging to two families carry distinct mutations both affecting the catalytic domain of the protein. Further experiments involving electron microscopy, immunolocalization by confocal microscopy and biochemistry analyses allowed to precise the role of the protein. PNPLA1 lipase is located in between the upper epidermal and the lower layers of the cornified layer, and is required for the correct keratinocyte differentiation. It belongs to a family of proteins, PNPLA1 to PNPLA5, that are key elements in the lipid metabolism of the cutaneous barrier.
The study performed in dogs was supported by CNRS and the European Commission (FP7-LUPA, GA201370), thanks to the excellent LUPA coordinators Anne-Sophie Lequarré and Marilou Ramos-Pamplona. The Canine Genetics team continues to collect blood and skin biopsies in all other canine ichthyoses in any breed.

That's the safe mode driver and if one did get rid of it then when there is a device or driver problem you would not have ANY display at all.
The restart fix it symptom would have me inspecting the card and entire machine for "BAD CAPS". Google that if you are unaware of the plague/issue.
So for the past few days my driver has been acting up, my computer starts up in 800 x 600 resolution . I've tried resetting my BIOS, Downloading new Nvida driver and installing it and even rolling it back and now it's stuck on VGAsave.
Restarting it used to work, but now no matter how times I try reset it, it still won't work. I tried going to display drivers uninstalling then going 'scan for hardware changes' and then I reset it and nothing happens. I also did try downloading driver and window 7 updates but they don't down, they just stay at 0% which is very strange considering my download speed is 110 kb/s and last of all I tried system restore but that failed as well.

Here's an innovative way to look back at the year. Members of a Flickr group created by The Guardian have recreated some of the greatest moments of 2011 … in Lego. The Royal Wedding, the death of Bin Laden, Occupy Wall Street and even Murdoch's almost-encounter with a custard pie all get the Lego treatment.
The same bunch previously also worked on a World Cup project. There's still time to add your creation. You can email email@example.com or join the Flickr page.

Muslim cleric shot dead in Sydney
Australian commandos have stormed a cafe in Sydney, ending a 16-hour siege by a gunman identified as an Iranian refugee who took dozens of hostages.
Man Haron Monis, 50, who was on bail for being an accessory to the murder of his ex-wife and was facing more than 40 sexual and indecent assault charges, was killed.
Two others died at the Lindt Chocolat Cafe, a 34-year-old man, a 38-year-old woman.
Early in the siege, hostages were forced to hold up a black Islamic banner at the window of the cafe.
Monis, according to this report, was born in Iran and sought political asylum in Australia in 1996.
The charges he was facing relate to time he allegedly spent as a self-proclaimed "spiritual healer" who dealt with so-called black magic at a premises in western Sydney.
Monis had previously been convicted of sending offensive letters to the families of deceased Australian soldiers.
However, he has no known links to jihadist groups, and commentators have suggested he is likely to be working alone.
Anne Aly, head of the counter terrorism research programme at Australia's Curtin University, told the BBC:
Certainly this appears to be the actions of a lone actor, perhaps not very well prepared, perhaps not very well planned.
Monis, also known as Sheikh Haron and Mohammad Hassan Manteghi, wrote on his website that he used to be Shia but is no longer.
He denied the criminal charges against him, saying they were politically motivated. He compared the accusations of sexual assault against him to the case of Julian Assange, founder of the whistle-blowing website Wikileaks.
His website had been suspended by the time his identity was revealed in the media in connection with the siege.
Before the siege ended, Monis' former lawyer, Manny Conditsis, told ABC News that Monis was an isolated figure.
His ideology is just so strong and so powerful that it clouds his vision for common sense and objectiveness.
Conditsis, who represented Monis last year when he was charged with being accessory to the murder of ex-wife Noleen Hayson Pal, said he thought the suspect might feel:
He's got nothing to lose. Hence his participating in something as desperate and outrageous as this.
43 responses to "Muslim cleric shot dead in Sydney"
I suppose my comment will upset the humanitarians but his death does seem like the shooting of a rabid dog.
How dare you, sir! I'd call that pretty offensive to rabid dogs!
@John: You have a point there, John. I have owned dogs for much of my life: mongrels as a boy (now according to PC to be called mixed breeds), Alsatians (now changed to German Shepherds) and recently Labradors. They all behaved, in the context of the canine world, better than this man. I accept your rebuke and so does my dog.
I'm convinced that he was bonkers, but it seems odd that he is being referred to on the news as a "self-styled Muslim cleric". Isn't that what they all are?
@barriejohn: I think once the bonkers begins when religion throws fuel on the flames and they go totally crazy. Without religion they might get through life being a bit unbalanced but without kidnapping and killing people.
But think on this…..there are many more like this nasty bastard….and as long as the rabid mullahs, imams and islamic "scholars"are allowed to fill the heads of children with evil shit islamic garbage there will be battalions more in years to come. Islam, the worst religion by a huge margin, is an abomination and a blight on humanity. Not much we can do to shut the madrasahs (incubators of islamofacist werewolves) in Pakistan and Iran, but in the civilised world the madrasahs need to be shutdown and the wannabe terrorists given a secular education. Get young minds away from the influence of the evil purveyors of constipated islamic dogma. Stop the poisoning of young minds with religious garbage and religions will wither and die. Everyone knows this, especially the pious who want to retain their power influence and wealth.
This is the kind of thing that leads me to conclude that being a human being (and having the right to be treated as one) is a matter of behaviour rather than biology.
I abhor violence (as I'm sure you do), especially when it is unnecessary and when it is not a last resort. But this guy, seemingly and ironically a representative of the so-called 'religion of peace', was knowingly and willingly threatening the lives of others. He deserved nothing more than the response he got. And I do admire the way the Aussies dealt with this – no prolonged siege which would give the bastard plenty of opportunities to wave religious flags and make demands. They just went in there and did the job. Very, very sad that two innocent people seem to have also died as a result of the commandoes' action, but it certainly sends a clear enough message to any other would-be 'martyrs': 'Don't fuck with us'. And I wholeheartedly agree with that.
'The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.'
Edmund Burke.
"Religion poisons everything"
Another one bites the dust…good!
"…His ideology is just so strong and so powerful that it clouds his vision for common sense and objectiveness…"
Quick question: Why is he out on bail?
Actually he is a rabid dog.
a rabid dog is insane by a viral infection, and does bad things.
He is insane and a religious infection justified his mind to cause harm.
You shoot rabid dogs, no difference here either.
I can hear it now …. BUT this is a human!!!!
OK good YOU catch him, you imprison him, YOU feed him and care for him for the rest of his life, and YOU accept all the costs, shooting is easier and cheaper, and permanently solves the problem of the insane dim doing any more harm. OH and if you think I'm not being fair, if you find that I have cause harm and death to many people, you have my permission to shoot me.
@AgentCormac: There is a section of society who, I would guess, feel the same as you, I and others here that it is in everyone's interest that he is dead. However, that PC section of society says the opposite and abhors his death.
This enables them to have their cake and eat it. They can be compassionate, as they see it, while despising those who hold the view that he is better dead. I prefer to direct my compassion to his victims, of whom there seem to be a great many, and those still to be victimised should he live.
Then there's this response. Humanity will and must win out.
@L. Long: Those distant from his violence, living in the safety of Western comfort, can afford to be compassionate. Those on the receiving end of his rape, kidnapping and murder will have a different opinion.
As highlighted recently here on The Freethinker (link below), once we become so PC we are afraid to call terrorists what they actually are – i.e. murdering bastards – then they are well no their way to winning. If you've ever read Christopher Hitchens' wonderful autobiography 'Hitch 22' he was completely in favour of the invasion of Iraq, a stance which actually lost him a lot of friends on the left (and in hindsight I'm not at all sure he was correct). But at least he had the balls to speak out against the kind of political dogma which can paralyse those of us in the democratic West. As history has shown time and again, appeasement is no answer to those who would rule the world by intimidation and violence.
I'm appalled at some of the views being expressed here. I thought we were rational people!
Does being 'rational people' mean we must roll over every single time and let those who would wipe us off the face of the planet have their way without consequence? Without response? Should we accept that they can do whatever they want and we must, by the very fact that we consider ourselves to be 'rational', somehow mean that we cannot criticise? There's tolerance and then there's appeasement.
Local television is plastered with politicians calling the Sydney siege "Political"! Jesussss…the gunman put an islamic faith flag up in the window, extolling the virtues of his chosen favourite fairy, how is that not a religious act? How is it a political act? These dipsticks are motivated by nothing more than their stone-age religious belief, nothing more. It's totally, one hundred percent religious and is yet another example of the blight caused to society by religious nonsense. I wish that out political leaders would admit this truth and stop playing the bleeding heart. f'christ sake!
This man did nothing in a political sense.
He did nothing in a rational sense.
He did it for what he believed. His beliefs were religious.
He took over a cafe with weapons and by force, holding people captive, terrified and against their will and (displaying religious material making religious demands) – it is criminal. Society deems it criminal to allow us all to live without killing each other like wild animals.
There is nothing whatsoever he did that cannot be reduced to his religious insanity.
The apologists will trot out the usual rubbish – but he did this for religious reasons – like the news is filled with other instances (9/11, 7/7 for example, he has been seen by us all with religion as a main reason for his actions.
Religion is the crime.
I expect now the various "moderate muslims" and their pc sidekicks will be saying this is nothing to do with islam and that it was the work of a lone loony. The fact is that this creep's actions were inspired by, and precisely what islamic terror groups want, he is part of their disposable "thin red line" that stretches our security resources – as distinct from the highly trained operatives such as the 900 Hezbollah sleepers reportedly present in Germany http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3872/eu-blacklists-hezbollah.
Terror is part and parcel of islam and always has been since it's inception.
I too was surprised that Hitchens was in support of the Iraq War, but the fact of the matter is something had do be done about that cruel Iraqi dictator. My problem is the lies told to enter the war and the war profiteers like Halliburton who are also snatching up the Iraqi peoples resources, such as their oil.
Was there not another way to overthrow that nut-case??
The people murdered.
The young man was the manager of the cafe.
A customer. A young woman with three children.
Just doing his job.
Having a drink before work.
None of these. It was done by and in the name of the religion of absolute hate.
Breaking news. 500 hostages taken, 20 students killed at a school in Pakistan by the Taliban.
You have to feel sorry for the police/soldiers involved here. The PC left will demand a public enquiry over the death of this "poor disillusioned victim of police/army violence". You know, the same old story. The police do an excellent job of stamping on terrorist activity and within a couple of weeks there are is a queue of people demanding compensation and complaining about police brutality. However, as this didn't happen in the UK, these guys will probably carry on living their lives as normal without years of harassment they would have had otherwise.
Every sympathy for the innocent lives ended by this man's actions.
Those who 'misunderstand Islam' seem to always misunderstand it in the same way – and always in alignment with the Quran and Muslim history. Murder, kidnapping, rape, tyranny and howling about being oppressed.
@Newspaniard: Remember that mullah or whatever he was with the hooks? He really took the piss out of the UK and his lawyers made a bundle. What was it – 10 years of expensive legal aid before he was put on a plane to the USA. I think around a £1,000,000 was spent on legal aid plus all the other benefits he claimed while he was preaching against the very society he was shafting.
In Australia a talented lawyer, aged 38, with three children under 10, one of them aged 4, was murdered. That will be a hell of Christmas for the kids and they spend the rest of their lives with only memories. How does this get explained to the kids? Also a courageous young restaurant manager is gunned down by the same religious crazy.
Two more atrocities committed by adherents of the 'religion of peace. Islam hasn't progressed any since the Dark Ages: How much longer can the enlightened world find any acceptance for this ridiculous belief system?
Oh dear, here the come the apologists: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-trending-30479306
They have no shame and no morals.
@AgentCormac: I think it is only when you see a picture of the face of a child that the pitiless brutality of the "religion of peace" hits home. Until then the numbers obscure the personal suffering multiplied so many times. Being in the presence of these tragic children of the murdered Australian lawyer would be shattering.
In October the New South Wales parliament passed a law that expunged convictions for homosexuality. That parliament went against God's law – could there be a connection between this act of wickedness and what happened in Sydney? God is not mocked.
Man Haron Monis from Iran received political asylum in Australia in 1996. I guess his death was allahs way of saying: don't be so ungrateful you dick.
Bob Hutton, you odious little man. Making cheap jibes about people being slaughtered because of religion, albeit a different religion to that which has rotted your brain – your idea of christian love. There are no god's laws and you can't mock something that doesn't exist.
Your inhumanity and lack of common decency know no bounds, Hutton. You are a profoundly repellent person.
I'm a bit surprised at some of the 'over the top' hatred being espoused here. This site usually has a more intellectual bent, this seems very "American", where outrageous rhetoric is the norm. I hate all religions for the hatred they spread, the lives they destroy and the damage to society. That being said, I don't hate muslims, most of them I pity for being the victims of indoctrination and the insidious influence of a society dominated by islam. They are mostly the victims of childhood programming just like I was a victim of christian programming. I'm fine with this assholes death, he made his bed and now he's lying in it. I feel sadness and sympathy with the victims families and freinds.
You can't rid the world of an insidious power like religion by hating the followers-you have to educate and change them. Hard to do when all the people you hope to influence only see the face of hatred and intolerance. That actually feeds the fake islamic storyline used by their leaders to justify jihad. The majority of muslims are not crazy killers or we'd have thousands of these incidents every day. I condemn religion, crazed religious fanatics like this guy and all muslims who espouse jihad. But I don't condemn all muslims.
To steal and paraphrase a tagline from the christians, "hate the religion, but don't hate all religious people". I'm bracing for the backlash now to these comments.
@Bob says: "God is not mocked." But as is typical of the alleged acts of this fictional God he doesn't hesitate to slaughter and make innocent children suffer. If that's your God you are welcome to the brute.
Bob, thank you for that, my relatives in Sydney will be much happier now they know you are worrying about their well being.
It is so easy for you isn't it? Just pick the bits you like from a badly thrown together collection of ramblings from various writers, ignore any historical, archaeological or any other genuine academic evidence and sit in your ivory tower passing judgement and making disgusting claims.
I can think of no better words than Angela's, you are odious little man.
You are completely devoid of any shred of decency.
It's like listening to UKIP with some of the comments on here. Shoot the insane? That's insane to start with. Pure muppetry
He used religion as an excuse, he was out of his mind, he had already displayed years of aberrant, anti-social behaviour, he couldn't make up his mind what religious bullshit he was following and people suffered for it. And AgentCormac, the actions of the "commandoes" did not lead to the deaths of the two people, their deaths are firmly at the feet of the nutcase who instigated the situation. You weren't there so don't speculate on the events. That makes you worse than Fox News.
Bob, you're fibbing again! God's often mocked here and elsewhere, it's the continuing entertainment value of your obnoxious beliefs that keeps us coming back.
Australia, like Europe must understand that Man Haron Monis represents true islam and we should look carefully at who are refugees and who are, in fact, invaders.
See this article on how a christian nation is being overwhelmed by its "refugees".

The Genius vs. Shakespeare
As I'm not sure what was aired tonight on Ringside Live, I'll post this video anyway (with a slight explanation).
Ringside Live, the radio I do with Ian Hamilton every Friday night via BlogTalkRadio, was acting up. As a result of various tecnical problems (not our doing), we weren't sure if we were broadcasting live, being recorded for streaming/podcasting/iTunes purposes, or just having a phone conversation amongst ourselves.
I mentioned this goofy Lanny Poffo video, which I still can't find the words to describe. I said I'd post it right here for any listeners that wanted to retrieve the URL.
Well, with the help of the blogTalkRadio tech crew, we went on the air one hour later than usual, and all was well. I never mentioned the video in the redo. I have no idea if people were listening to the live broadcast or not, so here it is regardless.
Anyways, thanks to the BlogTalk folks for getting everything sorted out. I really enjoy being on the show, and it's a great way to cap off the week for me. Thanks to Ian for keeping them on their toes and getting to the bottom of everything.
What's almost sad is that me and Ian were essentially chatting among ourselves for about 40 minutes and having a great old time. I think some people would have gotten a good chuckle over some of the stuff we were talking about (which was mostly wrestling related except my revalation that I just recently began to actually understand what Ian is saying every week).

Brian Urlacher says the mother of his 3-year-old son has stooped to a low in their messy custody battle.
The Bears linebacker said today he was incensed that Tyna Robertson had been quoted in a published report as saying Urlacher had painted his son Kennedy's toenails blue and made the boy wear a pink Cinderella pull-up.
Robertson talked to the Joliet Herald-News, part of the Sun-Times News Group, after a Tuesday date in Will County Court.
"I don't [care] what she says about me or what anyone else says about me, but she's putting my son in the paper again," Urlacher said.

Multiple Sclerosis Society: Concern at shortage of MS nurses in Wales
A charity says it is concerned about a shortage of specialist nurses for multiple sclerosis sufferers in Wales.
MS Society Cymru said there are 13 specialist nurses in Wales - but only one of those is in north Wales and there are none in Powys.
It comes as the first pill for the neurological condition was recommended for UK use by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE).
The Welsh Government said it is working to improve MS services.
MS Society Cymru said there are around 4,000 people in Wales with MS, which is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system.
But there is just one specialist multiple sclerosis (MS) nurse per 308 sufferers, according to MS Society Cymru.
'Postcode lottery'
Judy Rees, who is director of the charity, said she was "concerned" about a "postcode lottery" for provision.
"We're particularly short of MS specialist nurses in some parts of the country," she said.
"For example in north Wales we only have one where the population suggests we would need two or three and in Powys we don't have any dedicated MS specialist nurses.
"And they're the people really who provide the gateway for people with MS and the few people who really understand what people with MS are going through."
She said the charity would also be pushing for all health boards in Wales to use the newly recommended drug Fingolimod, which is the first daily pill for people with MS.
It would be of use to some but not all sufferers and would offer an alternative to the current treatments of injections and hospital infusions.
Ms Rees said it was a "major step forward" for people with MS" and would reduce the severity of relapses or attacks of the condition and the time between them.
She said the pill costs £20,000 per person per year - but that it would be "£20,000 very well spent for somebody with MS".
"[The cost] actually compares very well with other treatments and of course it's the savings you get for people who would otherwise be admitted to hospital," she added.
"And, of course, the quality of life is vastly improved."
Improving services
MS is one of the most common neurological conditions affecting young adults and around 100,000 people in the UK have it.
It can occur at any age but is usually diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40 - and women are almost twice as likely to develop MS as men
Relapsing Remitting MS (RRMS) is the most common form, affecting 80% of people.
The new pill is more than twice as effective at reducing relapses as a standard interferon injection for people with RRMS.
A Welsh Government spokesman said work was under way to improve services for people with neurological conditions.
"Specialist nurses form an integral and important part of health services," he added.
"It is for individual health boards to ensure they have the correct skill mix and staff levels to support people who suffer with multiple sclerosis."

Does Emma have an official site, or anything else online?
Emma's official site is Emma Watson Official – emmawatson.com. As of 2013, however, the site is no longer working. The domain is still there, though, so it might come to life again in the future.
As of 2010, she also added an official Twitter (@EmWatson) and Facebook Fan Page (Emma Watson) to her social networking portfolio; in 2013, she also joined WhoSay.
Feel free to follow Emma (and us!) to stay updated with the latest Emma news.
Do you have Emma's email/address/telephone or mobile number?
Sorry, no, we are not in contact with Emma and don't have any contact information for her other then her official fanmail address. Even if we did have that information in our possession, we would be unable and unwilling to give it out.
Can you give Emma a message for me?
Again, sorry, but we're not in contact with Emma and therefore any messages for her you send to us will be deleted and go into the world of deleted internetdom.
Is she still attached to [X movie]?
Talking about "Napoleon and Betsy", Emma said: "It's a project I love and am attached to, but I don't know if or when it will happen. I hope it does. I'm afraid that's the nature of filmmaking. You learn to not become too emotionally involved as scripts come and go and many of them never get off the ground."
This applies to any project that Emma might be rumoured to be part of ("While we're young", "Beauty and the Beast", "Your voice in my head"…). You can always check her IMDb page to be sure!
Emma's Facebook Q&A
What's the best advice anyone has ever given you regarding fame?
My mum said to me very early on in my career, "Never give anyone information that you aren't comfortable discussing at any time, anywhere and with anyone – once you open the door on a subject it's very difficult to close it." That is very true and I am a very private person. It's not always easy to follow but I try to keep it in mind. A film critic also once told me that acting was unlike any other in the entertainment industry – an actors job is to tell other people's stories; to suspend an audiences disbelief and make them believe you are who you are portraying. That job is made almost impossible if your audience know too much about you, the actor, as a person. That has always stayed with me and the older I get the more I see the wisdom in it. However, as much as I might want to do that, I have to acknowledge that it's not totally possible with the way my career turned out! People have watched me grow up and I think Harry Potter became more famous than I or I think anyone ever anticipated.
What advice would you give to your nine year old self?
I think I would have asked more questions of some of the amazing actors on the Potter films – Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Gary Oldman, Emma Thompson, Helena Bonham Carter, Kenneth Branagh – everyone – but I was only nine!
What's happening with Beauty and the Beast?
Guillermo del Toro, the director, has just finished editing his last film and is working on the script and pre-production for Beauty and the Beast.
Would you be interested in directing/producing?
Absolutely. I still have a lot to learn but I would definitely like to do something like this in the future.
Are there any more fair trade collaborations on the horizon?
There has been a lot of speculation about my People Tree collections, with stories running that they 'failed' or that I was unhappy. This was really strange because I felt the opposite of this. From the two collections I did with People Tree overall sales were £446,000 which was a huge surprise. The collections generated work for 400 farmers, artisans and tailors! For me though, the most important part of the collaboration was that I was able to raise the profile of Fair Trade fashion which I think I did successfully. I visited Bangladesh to see the clothes being made and spoke with the factory workers first hand to understand what the real issues were so I would be able to talk about them in an informed and real way. In terms of other collaborations, I have decided I want to put all of my energy into my acting career but it was something I really enjoyed doing,learnt a lot from and am glad I did.
What sort of movie roles are you drawn to? Would you do another blockbuster franchise?
I am definitely staying away from blockbuster franchises for a while! In terms of the type of parts I am drawn to, I need to be interested in the role, and who I would be working with. The director's vision is key. Sometimes what's on the page isn't always representative of what a piece can ultimately become and a great director can take a good script to another level and make it incredible.
Lucy in My Week with Marilyn was a small role – why haven't you been taking lead roles recently?
The reason I hadn't at that point taken on a full length part and had been doing some modelling work was because I did not have the time to dedicate to a lead role in a full length film as I have been studying for my degree. These smaller roles have also given me the time to learn a few different methods of film making. Smaller, more independent films sometimes allow more room for me to learn and grow.
What would Harry and Ron say about Hermione being in Perks?
Harry and Ron aren't real people and I think that is confusing for people sometimes but I hope that Daniel and Rupert would like the film ! I am no longer playing the role of Hermione even though I love her dearly! I played her for so long of course it's going to be hard for people to detach me from her but I am Emma and an actress and I hope I have many different people's stories inside of me. If I am lucky Hermione will be just one of many female characters I will play during my career.

From Barnegat, New Jersey, USA:
My daughter was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. She is 11 years old and takes insulin four times a day. We paid for insulin through my prescription plan and all supplies were supplied from my medical insurance. Then, I found out that my medical insurance also covers the insulin. When I called them about receiving the insulin from them, they told me if I have a prescription plan I would have to go by this way. They said that New Jersey has a mandate that health insurers have to supply insulin if the person receiving it does not have a prescription plan. Can you help in defining this law? Is it true that I must use my prescription plan or is my health insurance just trying to get out of supplying this medication?
I see that you receive your health insurance benefits through your employer's group health policy. While you look at the coverage you receive as one comprehensive program, it is actually two or three different insurance policies (or contracts if the benefit program is partly or fully self-funded by the employer) woven together in a coordinated comprehensive benefit package. One contract or policy is responsible for providing major medical benefits (doctor's office visits, ancillary services like laboratory tests and radiology provided outside of a hospitalization, and durable medical supplies like strips and monitors). Another policy or contract provides access to prescription drugs and other approved non-prescription pharmacy items. Generally, injectable drugs like insulin are covered under the prescription drug coverage, even if you do not need a prescription to purchase the item. The New Jersey law setting coverage requirements for diabetes education, equipment and supplies is satisfied so long as a comprehensive policy or group benefit program provides coverage for the specified services or items. The law does not look behind the curtain to see what pieces of the coverage are covered by what parts of a coordinated health benefit program.

The Lower Peshtigo River wetlands are a Wisconsin natural jewel. A diverse environment with hardwood and softwood forests, wetlands along a meandering river and coastal wetlands on the shore of Green Bay, these high-quality ecosystems are capable of supporting a variety of aquatic and terrestrial wildlife.
The Peshtigo River Trail, a canoe route from Peshtigo to the river's mouth on Green Bay, takes you past areas where fish, bird and mammal habitat has been preserved to help the fish and wildlife that have been injured by the release of PCBs into the Lower Fox River and Green Bay. This trail, along with three trails on state-owned lands in the coastal area, provides recreational opportunities and education about the wetland resources under protection.
Through the final NRDAR settlement with Georgia-Pacific, 900 acres have been acquired in the area and donated to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. This acreage connects the Peshtigo Harbor Unit of the Green Bay West Shore Wildlife Area and the Bloch Oxbow Natural Area and remaining undeveloped river shoreline. The land has an estimated value of $2,512,708.
This strategically located property ensures protection of frontage along the Peshtigo River – the last natural river emptying into the western shore of Green Bay – by the DNR, a single public resource manager.
According to Greg Cleereman, Marinette County conservationist, "Purchase of additional lands through the trustee council was the trigger to establish the water trail and now three land trails."
Emergent marsh (a swamp that dries up and comes back naturally), meadows and floodplain forests make up the wetlands. On a lazy afternoon canoe trip along the trail, you might see eagles, great blue herons, ducks and geese. Steep sand banks on the Bloch Oxbow Natural Area provide nesting sites for swallows, while the dry forested land above the bank is habitat for several threatened bird species.
The property is part of the foraging range of bald eagles from at least three known eagle nesting sites along the Peshtigo River. The forested shoreline and river provide good habitat for numerous species that may have been affected by PCBs, including bald eagle, osprey, red-shouldered hawk, mink, beaver, northern pike, suckers and sturgeon.
Portions of the property will grow into forested buffer areas and restore natural hydrological conditions, helping create and improve wetland habitat for fish and wildlife. Preserving this corridor will also benefit downstream areas such as Green Bay and the mouth of the Peshtigo River, through erosion control, nutrient recycling, and control of runoff pollution. The mouth of the Peshtigo River provides significant foraging habitat for numerous species of concern, including bald eagles, ospreys, and common, Forster's and Caspian terns.
The river's rocky bottom is home to numerous fish species. Shallow areas and floodplains provide spawning habitat while other areas offer anyone venturing onto this stretch of the Peshtigo River the opportunity to go sport fishing.
While the shoreline provides excellent habitat for wildlife, it will also provide exceptional outdoor experiences for anyone making the trip into the area. Marinette County Land and Water Conservation Department, the University of Wisconsin-Extension and DNR have acquired a grant to develop a land trail system through the area in addition to the existing water trail.

It doesn't matter if the "alway...' box is checked or not, Stata.exe doesn't appear as an option.
I was mistaken when I said I removed everything from c-drive to an external drive (well, I did this as a precaution in case the upgrade didn't work I didn't want to lose anything). When I upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 all my programs remained on the c-drive and I didn't have to reinstall any of them. Unfortuately, I can not easily reinstall Stata b/c it is a limited # student license and as a grad student I am working in the field and not anywhere near the university.
I thought about doing a "restore" on my computer (although I've never tried this so I'm a bit apprehensive) back a few days but in the meantime with the upgrade to window7 I also had to have Dell reinstall my wireless capability which was removed in the upgrade. If I "restore" I would lose my wireless again, wouldn't I?
|My System Specs
|01 Feb 2010
I'm afraid that I'm a bit confused. In the Open with window of the file you want opened by this program, you say you can "Browse" to and select the Stata.exe file that opens the program, but at the same time you say it's not available as an option. Could you please claify this a bit more?
In Open with, are you also expanding the "Other Programs" area to see if it is there after you have selected it?
|My System Specs
|01 Feb 2010
Sorry for the confusion! In the "Open with..." window of the file I want opened with Stata, I expand "other programs" and Stata.exe is not there. So I browse to locate stata.exe and then click "open" which brings me back to the "Open with..." window but stata.exe does not appear as an option in the "other programs" I have tried this procedure with and without the "always use..." box checked. Does this make more sense?!
|My System Specs
|02 Feb 2010
Ok, I see now. Thank you for clearing that up. Are you sure that is the correct exe file to use, or that the STAT program suports opening files in that manner?
As an alternative for now, are you able to open the file from within the program instead?

In Windows XP I used Crimson Editor to edit .xml files. GREAT old program.
In Windows 7, I cannot associate a .xml file type to Crimson Editor, by any method above.
Can I set this manually in the Registry?
|My System Specs
|05 Mar 2010
Hello Chazcon,
If you cannot associate the XML file extension to Crimson Editor using the method in this tutorial or by using Open With, then that program may not be fully Windows 7 compatible. I see that the latest version is 3.70 released September 22, 2004, so it may not be.
Are you able to open the XML file from within Crimson Editor itself?
|My System Specs
|06 Mar 2010
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, in order to open an XML file in Crimson Editor I must launch CE and then open the XML.
I noticed on SourceForge - where CE is now being 'maintained' as Emerald Editor - that they have not updated version numbers properly, and the link to CE version 3.72 release 5/14/08 gives you a version 2.63. As installed the version number is SVN263.
In any case, 'Open With' does not work and I wonder in the Registry how I can make this happen manually? I edited the Registry entry for .xml to open with Crimson Editor but this must not be the correct 'name' for the program.
It's a shame CE is not being properly maintained, it's a great program and has been a standby of mine, and many others, for years now.
I've tried several things, editing the Registry at Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xml\(Default) name to Crimson Editor, Crimson Editor SVN263, cedt.exe, no luck.
I also added a new entry to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xml\OpenWithList named cedt.exe
Intuitively, I suspect that when you install a program on Windows 7, the installation program must add the program name to a list in the OS somewhere that the OS can then parse when creating the Open With list. And Crimson Editor has not been updated for Windows 7 to do this. CE does show up in the uninstall list.
Can I manually add the program name into this list?
|My System Specs
|06 Mar 2010
It doesn't appear that the program is going to compatible for this in Windows 7 since it is so old.
I do not know how to, so I'm not sure if there may be a way to add it manually.

I want to associate .flac files with a program called foobar2000. This is a portable application and I originally had the folder for this app somewhere else.
I decided to move the app to the program files folder and now flac files won't allow me to open with foobar unless if I manually open foobar and drop the files in.
When I move the app folder back into the original location, it shows up in the window for open with, but when I move it back to program files, it doesn't appear anymore. I tried to use the browse and manually add the program, but when I click the app in the program files location, the open with window just doesn't want to add the app in.

in reply to User Who Modified File
On a *nix system, you can use stat to get the UID (user ID) of the file, and cross reference it with /etc/passwd to match it to the user.
For a windows system, I found this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/218965. It contains some sample VB code that you should be able to translate to perl. Though you'll have to define the DLL references & such.
Update: I also found a bit of perl at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4677180/how-to-get-file-owner-name.
When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

The About.com Home website offers reviews of both furniture businesses, such as Thomasville Furniture and Room and Board, and the companies' individual products. Websites that sell furniture often feature user reviews of their products, as do social review websites. General furniture company reviews, including Martha Stewart, are available at Consumer Affairs. Reviews of some specific types of furniture, such as baby feeding chairs, can be found at Consumer Reports.Continue Reading
Product reviews usually contain negative and positive aspects of each product. Some include a rating system, often with a set of stars. Specific collections of a company are sometimes highlighted, as are prices, company histories and possible safety concerns. Consumers should be aware of companies that hire individuals to fabricate fake reviews for their products. In addition to user reviews, there are also many guides to buying furniture available. A website with many similar ratings and reviews may include false praise.
Consumers can learn to assess wood, construction methods and furniture composition to discern a piece's quality for themselves. Some tips include ensuring that any cushion foam is wrapped within another material for long-lasting durability, selecting only products made with jointed wood rather than staples and only purchasing woods that pass a scratch test, or do not form a scratch when gently scratched by a fingernail.Learn more about Furniture

Obama white house lies exceed orwellian levels, Monthly jobs reports, Labor force participation blamed on older workers retiring, Blame falls on Obama and lack of jobs for younger Americans
Obama white house lies exceed orwellian levels, Monthly jobs reports, Labor force participation blamed on older workers retiring, Blame falls on Obama and lack of jobs for younger Americans
The lies emanating from the Obama White House are on a scale unimaginable by George Orwell when he wrote "1984."
Yesterday, April 7, 2015 we exposed the lies from the Obama White House Council of Economic Advisers about the labor force participation rate and the impact of the aging population.
From WhiteHouse.gov February 6, 2015.
"The Employment Situation in January"
"Posted by Jason Furman"
"2. The labor force participation rate rose to 62.9 percent in January, and has been relatively stable, on balance, since October 2013—during which time the unemployment rate has fallen by 1.5 percentage point.The recent stabilization in the participation rate suggests that all of the decline in the unemployment rate over the past fifteen months has been due to employment gains. Over the recovery as a whole, the participation rate has fallen, in large part because of two simultaneous events that hit in 2008: the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and the beginning of a retirement boom as the first Baby Boomers became eligible for Social Security. Last summer, the Council of Economic Advisers released a report elaborating on these and other factors driving the decline in the participation rate. Updating the analysis to account for today's data, CEA estimates that of the 3.0 percentage-point decline in the participation rate from 2007:Q4 to January 2015, 1.8 percentage point is due to the natural aging of the population and 0.5 percentage point is due to standard business-cycle effects. The remaining 0.8 percentage point is a "residual" that could reflect either less-well-understood pre-existing trends or lingering after-effects from the unusual severity of the Great Recession. (Components do not sum to total due to rounding.) Although the effect of an aging population is likely to exert downward pressure on the participation rate for years to come, the President has proposed a number of policy steps that can help support labor force participation and the economy's long-run potential output. An updated discussion of the labor force participation rate and policy implications will appear in the forthcoming Economic Report of the President."
From the Citizen News article above:
From Zero Hedge April 3, 2015.
"No Country For Young Workers: Only Americans 55 And Older Found Jobs In March"
"And the real kicker: since the start of the Second Great Depression, only the 55 and older age group has seen job increases. Those 55 and younger are still 1.2 million jobs below the level they were are on December 2007."
"And just in case there is any confusion, here is just the number of workers aged 55 and older. At 33.1 million they just hit a new all time high."
Here are some passages from George Orwell's "1984."
They should remind you of the Obama propaganda.

21st February is International Mother Language Day and our blog is hosting a 2 day celebration of languages. A series of blog posts by people from different walks of life - sharing their thoughts on languages, memories and more. International Mother Language Day is an observance held annually on 21 February worldwide to promote awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism.
(This post was sent by Samyukta Lakshman. Samyukta is a professional nomad at Pratham, India's largest education NGO. She can be found on Instagram and Twitter under a Russian alias @slakshmanova.)
Till age eight, I could speak in three tongues – all of which I proudly considered as my mother tongue if we use the 'native language' definition of the term. At that age, I could speak Konkani (of the Manglorean variety), English, and as I like to call it, Mohanlal Malayalam. How I achieved fluency in each will be revealed in due course.
If we were to use the 'ethnic' definition or as Indians like to call it, 'the what is your father's language' definition of the term, then I failed miserably.
For sanity's sake, I will stick to the first definition.
My father speaks Malayalam while my mother speaks Konkani, characteristic of their respective linguistic backgrounds. They met, like so many people do, in that chaotic melting pot called Bombay.
After I was born, my mother insisted on speaking to me in her native Konkani reasoning that I would have never learned it otherwise. Her rationale was that I would pick up English in school.
My paternal grandparents, who brought me up and were great admirers of the British Monarchy, resisted and spoke to me in English. They had migrated to Bombay from a coastal town in Kerala in south India before Independence. I learnt very little Malayalam from them but a lot of it from the Malayalam movies I watched with them.
An unintended consequence of this viewership was that I ended up speaking like the actors in these movies -- delivering melodramatic monologues, cooing romantic dialogues and spewing comical abuses.
My classmates had their Pig Latin and 'P' language while I had Mohanlal Malayalam. I spoke like Mohanlal, Kerala's biggest super star, at school and at home frustrating teachers and parents respectively. For my own good, the family decided to wean me off of the Malayalam movies once and for all.
Today, English is my first language while Konkani is my second one. Mohanlal Malayalam has faded to memory.

Sub Pop Records has signed the ferocious Toronto-based trio METZ and will release the band's debut full-length worldwide on October 9th, 2012.
Here's the official word from the label:
METZ will perform two shows at NXNE in Toronto this weekend: June 15th at Wrongbar, and June 16th at the Phoenix. This will be followed by a one-off show on June 22nd in Seattle at Barboza, and a festival performance on August 3rd in Sackville, NB at Sappyfest. METZ will then head out on a week-long tour, beginning August 24th in Chicago, IL at Bottom Lounge and ending September 1st in Brooklyn, NY at Death by Audio. Full tour dates below.
About METZ: As their name suggests, Toronto's METZ are short, sharp and to the point. They play minimal post-punk with enough of a grasp of melody and dynamics to appeal to the more casual listener.
Having been on the city's live circuit since relocating from Ottawa in 2009, their chaotic live performances have quickly gained repute as some of the city's best. And, if a fraction of their on-stage energy translates to their October 2012 debut, a crossover to the precariously fey mainstream indie world is not out of their reach.
Confrontational without being contrived and contorted without being convoluted, METZ are working rapidly outward from a pretty rare niche and are one band whose buzz is certain to induce violent shaking.
What people are saying about METZ:
"METZ have released a few great singles so far…If you dig AmRep, Brainiac, and McLusky and songs that employ that metallic "SHRIIIIIINNG," you are not going to want to miss these guys." – Brooklyn Vegan
"Apparently there are bands from Canada who have balls. Sharing their name with my favorite baseball team—at least phonetically—Toronto's METZ bring the raw, early '90s hardcore sludge back with a vengeance. Culling from Sub Pop's early catalog (think Melvins, Dwarves, Bleach era), these Canucks have been spewing the noise to great reception for the better part of two years." – Impose
"With layers of abstract guitar noise and pummeling drums, songs such as "Negative Space" flailed and thrashed before us before being bludgeoned to a sudden death. Just as suddenly METZ were leaving the stage, leaving us punch-drunk and disoriented in their wake." – BlogTO

Amanda Bertoncini definitely isn't the smartest princess on Long Island. The Princesses: Long Island star introduced us to the Drink Hanky this week.
The Drink Hanky is ridiculously stupid. Amanda is delusional if she thinks the fabric drink pouch is going to make her a millionaire. (Get a job!) The actual product aside, this week's episode of Princesses: Long Island showed Amanda incorporating a FDNY memorial and 9/11 statue from the Jonathan Ielpi Memorial Park into her Drink Hanky photo shoot, offending many viewers.
The sister of Jonathan Ielpi, the fallen 9/11 firefighter depicted in the statue, is speaking out about Amanda's disrespectful shoot. Melissa Ielpi-Brengel shared, "It opens up the wounds, and it makes you just want to cry all over again."
Melissa continued, "Pretending I'm drinking with this man who was killed, it may not be against the law to do it, but it is the most disrespectful and disgusting that I think you can do."
Amanda posted a rather self-serving apology to the Ielpi family on Facebook earlier today. "I would especially like to extend my sincerest apologies to the family of Jonathan Ielpi. I never meant to hurt or offend anyone when I was doing my photo shoot for The Drink Hanky. I hope you all can find it in your hearts to forgive me and understand that it was a spontaneous photo shoot without being aware that the statue was of sentimental value."
Mentioning the product she's trying to market in her apology? Tacky! Melissa agreed, saying, "That's not an apology, it's just another way to get her product out there."
Feeding off her claim to not know the meaning behind the statue, Melissa demanded of Amanda, "How do not know it has something to do with fire department? You grew up in Great Neck. You're a 30-year-old woman, living off your parents, who also grew up in Great Neck. How do you not know?"
Melissa – and many others – have questioned why none of the Princesses: Long Island camera operators, editors, or producers brought attention to the disrespectful nature of Amanda's photo shoot. And why did Bravo air it?!?
In response to the backlash, a spokesperson from Bravo said, "We are extremely sorry for any distress we caused the family of Jonathan Ielpi. Bravo has removed the footage from any future airings."
"Unfortunately there will be people who tune into the show just to see what happens next," concluded Melissa. "But at least this shows that we, as 9/11 families, and for all people that were killed, we're not going to allow people to disrespect it, to forget about it, make jokes about it, because it's not a joke. And it never will be."
Coincidentally – or perhaps not – Princesses: Long Island's ratings dropped so much this week that Reality Tea can't even get its numbers.

In November, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Tom Wheeler announced that the agency would be considering whether cell phone use for voice calls should be allowed on planes.
This follows the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) October decision to allow airlines to safely expand passenger use of consumer electronics during all phases of flight.
The FAA did not change regulations regarding the use of cell phones for voice communications during flight because the issue is under the FCC's jurisdiction. However, an FAA advisory committee did recommend that the FAA consult with the FCC to review their current rules.
It makes sense to allow passengers to use their phones on planes, remembering basic courtesy. For the sake of everyone else on a plane, cell phones should be allowed for texting, email and other data communication, but not for voice phone calls except in the case of emergencies.
The brief FCC announcement has been largely misconstrued.
Chairman Wheeler did not say the FCC would allow the use of mobile phones above 10,000 feet. He simply said the agency would be exploring ways to update its existing rules on cell phone use in planes.
For some perspective, the current regulations date back to 1991, and technology has undergone massive changes since then.
There are two issues that have to be considered with the new FCC proposal.
First, many are concerned that using a mobile phone on an airplane risks interfering with the plane's navigational system. Yet there is almost no technical evidence showing telephones cause interference. In fact, many passengers accidentally leave their phones on while flying without causing any disruption to the flight.
The second issue is whether the FCC or airlines should allow passengers to talk on their cell phones while the plane is in flight. Some international airlines already allow this.
If you're like me and you fly a lot, you know that flying is not fun. You are cramped in a small space, you can barely move and it is uncomfortable.
Among experienced travelers, a certain etiquette has evolved to make the flying experience as tolerable as possible. In general, you try to infringe on one another's personal space as little as possible.
Especially for those of us who fly frequently, the recent FAA decision allowing the use of personal electronics products from gate to gate was greeted enthusiastically.
In just the last few weeks, I noticed during my dozen or so flights on Delta that most passengers were already enjoying music, games, videos, ebooks or work throughout the flight.
But cellular phone use is still banned once the plane doors close. Even while the plane is sitting on the tarmac, most passengers simply tolerate phone talking – they definitely do not welcome it.
Phone talkers often loudly expose their life, problems and business to dozens of disinterested and annoyed passengers.
Often the only thing that allows other passengers to deal with it is the knowledge that once the cabin doors close, the flight attendants will require the cell phones to be switched to "airplane mode," ceasing such communication.
In fact, a recent study by the Airline Passenger Experience Association and the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)® found that 61 percent of airline passengers believe making cell phone calls should be restricted during flight.
Even within the consumer electronics industry, very few executives think talking on phones during flight is a good idea.
The potential for "air rage," increased difficulties for flight attendants, and even flight disruptions is very real, although according to an FAA study requested by Congress, though no such incidents were reported by foreign aviation authorities in markets where voice calls are permitted.
However, today's cell phones have many uses besides talking. People use them to stay in contact with friends, colleagues and loved ones by texting and e-mail.
They can be used to watch videos and follow stocks, to play games with others and keep up with the news.
While we want to avoid disrupting the flight for all passengers with noisy phone conversations, we should not shut out other connectivity opportunities for cell phones in flight.
We can hope the FCC's December 12 meeting and subsequent investigations will find that there's no technical barrier to cell phone use in airplanes. At the same time, any ensuing policies airlines enact must keep etiquette in mind, discouraging phone conversations while a plane is in flight.
The purpose of updating rules about personal devices in flights is to make the experience more enjoyable for all passengers.
Let's keep it that way.
