Moscow Police Beat Up Gay Protestors – CovenantNews.com Elated
"Russians Know How to Handle 'Gay' Parades"
That's the headline the kooks over at CovenantNews.com ran for the story about the violence at a Gay Pride parade in central Moscow the other day.
The Gulf Times provides a less-homophobic view:
Russian police detain gays as punches and eggs fly
MOSCOW: Russian nationalists shouting ?death to homosexuals? punched and kicked demonstrators calling for the right to hold a Gay Pride parade in central Moscow yesterday while riot police detained dozens of gay protesters.
Two European parliamentarians were among those held as they tried to present a petition asking Moscow mayor Yuri Luzhkov, who has called gay marches satanic acts, to lift a ban on the parade.
Nationalists and extreme Russian Orthodox believers held icons and denounced homosexuality as ?evil? while a group of thick-set young men turned up with surgeon?s masks, which they said would protect them from the ?gay disease?.
That's AWESOME!!! Great post!
…and so, apparently, is Ralph King.
Thanks Eric Vessels for the compliment.

#532: Catching Up With...Morning Smoke
It goes without saying that in this line of work there's certain bands who you will cross paths with time and time again. Sometimes this isn't a good thing, but more often than not, being able to watch a band's progression, and in some cases help that progression, is a major perk. One band who I've come across on more than a handful of occasions, are Brighton's Morning Smoke.

Review: Paul McCartney – Kisses on the Bottom
Published on February 13th, 2012 | Charles Connolly
Album: Paul McCartney – Kisses on the Bottom (Hear Music)
At long last, Paul is not still twenty-or-thirty-something! It's as if someone has tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Er, you know you're seventy this year?"… McCartney goes yet another re-invention further – to tick off another talent; jazz.
Being a rather huge fan, I personally always get a tingly excitement from news of a new McCartney album, but this time it was slightly dampened by hearing that it was jazz. All jazz, and nothing but jazz. Soft, unexciting jazz. i.e. Not Paul! I then read that the greatest songwriter in the world – ever – had only written two of the fourteen songs! For days I was deeply depressed by this news, and found myself getting into Arcade Fire… This mood quickly subsided and I got my childish excitement back.
"My Valentine"
McCartney's last solo album – now five years ago – was so critically acclaimed that even I thought they were going too far, almost to the point of wondering whether bribery was involved (of course it wasn't). Or most likely: "Hey, it's Paul. Of course it's great". It's true, it was certainly a grower – as with so much pop music in the last ten years – but at least for the first ten listens(!), I did find myself only hugely warming to a handful of the tunes. Namely; "Only Mama Knows", "Mr. Bellamy" and "Ever Present Past".
And so, to jazz.
Sometimes he gets it right; sometimes he gets it hugely wrong. His new album however seems to suit quite comfortably. Not an exciting and new-found sound, and neither is it an embarrassing compilation of whispers to his latest love.
Although a very polished and accomplished album, the only thing – thank God – left of his lifelong obsession with embarrassing himself (and his fans) is the title. I can't help but titter every time I hear yet another radio ad for his new album; Kisses On The Bottom…! As if the idea of Paul McCartney doing jazz was not enough of a treat for cold critics in the harsh world of reviews, he decides to call it Kisses On The Bottom (titter!).
"My One and Only Love"
All I really have to say is that it's such a shame he only wrote the two songs. One of which is the single "My Valentine", a sweet little piece of perfection you were sure had existed for many decades. As a songwriter myself, I wish I had written it. As with a lot of McCartney's back catalogue, post-Beatles, after several listens, the album as a whole becomes fond, warm and endearing – very personal – but I really do feel a lack of his greatest talent; songwriting. If half the tunes were as good as "My Valentine", this album would be hailed. But as it is, they're not. Probably still hailed though; until the next one. Well hey, it's Paul. Of course it's great.
As John Thomson of The Fast Show once said; "Hi, and welcome to Jazz Club"…
The making of Kisses on the Bottom
As well as being a McCartney/Beatles nut, Charles Connolly is also a prodigious solo artist himself. You can hear his music at soundcloud.com/charlesmusic and myspace.com/charlesmusic

The Greek vote — No No No30 June, 2015 at 18:27 | Posted in Economics | 2 Comments
The euro has taken away the possibility for national governments to manage their economies in a meaningful way — and in Greece the people has had to pay the true costs of its concomitant misguided austerity policies.
The unfolding of the Greek tragedy during the last couple of months has shown beyond any doubts that the euro is not only an economic project, but just as much a political one. What the neoliberal revolution during the 1980s and 1990s didn't manage to accomplish, the euro shall now force on us.
But do the peoples of Europe really want to deprive themselves of economic autonomy, enforce lower wages and slash social welfare at the slightest sign of economic distress? Is inreasing income inequality and a federal überstate really the stuff that our dreams are made of? I doubt it.
History ought to act as a deterrent. During the 1930s our economies didn't come out of the depression until the folly of that time — the gold standard — was thrown on the dustbin of history. The euro will hopefully soon join it.

The euro sucks30 June, 2015 at 10:28 | Posted in Economics | 2 Comments
So, having pushed us hard to accept substantial new austerity, in the form of absurdly large primary surpluses (3.5% of GDP over the medium term) … we ended up having to make recessionary trade-offs between, on the one hand, higher taxes/charges in an economy where those who pay their dues pay through the nose and, on the other, reductions in pensions/benefits in a society already devastated by massive cuts in basic income support for the multiplying needy …
Unfortunately, the institutions' response was to insist on even more recessionary measures … and, worse still, on shifting the burden massively from business to the weakest members of society (e.g. to reduce the lowest of pensions, to remove support for farmers, to postpone ad infinitum legislation that offers some protection to badly exploited workers).
The institutions new proposals … would make a politically problematic package – from the perspective of our Parliament – into a package that would extremely difficult to push through our Parliamentary caucus. But this is not all. It gets worse much worse than that once we take a look at the proposed financing package.
What makes it impossible to pass the institutions' proposal through Parliament is the lack of an answer to the question: Will these painful measures at least give us a period of tranquillity during which to carry out the agreed reforms and measures? Will a shock of optimism counter the recessionary effect of the extra fiscal consolidation that is being imposed on a country that has been in recession for 21 consecutive quarters? The answer is clear: No, the institutions' proposal is offering no such prospect.
The Troika threatens European democracy29 June, 2015 at 17:00 | Posted in Economics | Leave a comment
On the 5th of July one of two things will end: either Greek democracy as regards economic policy or Greece's Euro membership. Not a pleasant choice. Negotiations between the left-wing Greek government and the Troika had made little progress over the last months. When prime minister Alexis Tsipras announced a referendum on the Troika's final offer, the reaction was swift. Democratic decision-making is not part of economic policy making in Europe. Fiscal policy has to follow the rules and debt has to be serviced.
According to the European Commission the Greek government has unilaterally left the negotiating table. The German finance minister, Wolfgang Schäuble, and the head of the Eurogroup and Dutch finance minister Jeroen Dijsselbloem, thus concluded that the Greek rescue plan ends on Tuesday. The ECB is pulling the plug and has announced that it will not increase the size of the Emergency Liquidity Assistance (ELA). Less technically: no further short-term money for Greek banks. Greek banks are in intensive care. The ECB's doctors haven't switched off life support, but they have powered it down. Greece's Euro membership has effectively been suspended. As a consequence Greek banks have been shut down and cash withdrawals have been rationed. The Greek people should experience, before the referendum, what life is like without the Euro.
This a disaster for Europe, both in terms of democracy and its economics. The message to the Greek people, and indeed to all Europeans, is that they have to accept the German finance ministry's right to guide national policies and that austerity and deregulation is the only way to conceive of economics. This is a distinctly Germanic kind of neoliberalism and it is brutal. Syriza is a challenge to European elites and it has to be silenced. The ongoing depression in Greece and the desperation of the Greek population are just collateral damage in a Holy War of economic orthodoxy against a left-wing alternative. For the German government and European elites these negotiations have always been about regime change as much as they were about economics.
We are Greece!29 June, 2015 at 11:33 | Posted in Economics | 1 Comment
The Eurogroup Meeting of 27th June 2015 will not go down as a proud moment in Europe's history. Ministers turned down the Greek government's request that the Greek people should be granted a single week during which to deliver a Yes or No answer to the institutions' proposals – proposals crucial for Greece's future in the Eurozone. The very idea that a government would consult its people on a problematic proposal put to it by the institutions was treated with incomprehension and often with disdain bordering on contempt. I was even asked: "How do you expect common people to understand such complex issues?". Indeed, democracy did not have a good day in yesterday's Eurogroup meeting! But nor did European institutions. After our request was rejected, the Eurogroup President broke with the convention of unanimity (issuing a statement without my consent) and even took the dubious decision to convene a follow up meeting without the Greek minister, ostensibly to discuss the "next steps".
Can democracy and a monetary union coexist? Or must one give way? This is the pivotal question that the Eurogroup has decided to answer by placing democracy in the too-hard basket. So far, one hopes.
Greece and the true purpose of the euro28 June, 2015 at 15:56 | Posted in Economics | 2 Comments
The idea that the euro has "failed" is dangerously naive. The euro is doing exactly what its progenitor – and the wealthy 1%-ers who adopted it – predicted and planned for it to do.
That progenitor is former University of Chicago economist Robert Mundell. The architect of "supply-side economics" is now a professor at Columbia University, but I knew him through his connection to my Chicago professor, Milton Friedman, back before Mundell's research on currencies and exchange rates had produced the blueprint for European monetary union and a common European currency.
Mundell, then, was more concerned with his bathroom arrangements. Professor Mundell, who has both a Nobel Prize and an ancient villa in Tuscany, told me, incensed:
"They won't even let me have a toilet. They've got rules that tell me I can't have a toilet in this room! Can you imagine?"
As it happens, I can't. But I don't have an Italian villa, so I can't imagine the frustrations of bylaws governing commode placement.
But Mundell, a can-do Canadian-American, intended to do something about it: come up with a weapon that would blow away government rules and labor regulations. (He really hated the union plumbers who charged a bundle to move his throne.)
"It's very hard to fire workers in Europe," he complained. His answer: the euro.
The euro would really do its work when crises hit, Mundell explained. Removing a government's control over currency would prevent nasty little elected officials from using Keynesian monetary and fiscal juice to pull a nation out of recession.
"It puts monetary policy out of the reach of politicians," he said. "[And] without fiscal policy, the only way nations can keep jobs is by the competitive reduction of rules on business."
He cited labor laws, environmental regulations and, of course, taxes. All would be flushed away by the euro. Democracy would not be allowed to interfere with the marketplace – or the plumbing.
As another Nobelist, Paul Krugman, notes, the creation of the eurozone violated the basic economic rule known as "optimum currency area". This was a rule devised by Bob Mundell.
That doesn't bother Mundell. For him, the euro wasn't about turning Europe into a powerful, unified economic unit. It was about Reagan and Thatcher.
"Ronald Reagan would not have been elected president without Mundell's influence," once wrote Jude Wanniski in the Wall Street Journal. The supply-side economics pioneered by Mundell became the theoretical template for Reaganomics – or as George Bush the Elder called it, "voodoo economics": the magical belief in free-market nostrums that also inspired the policies of Mrs Thatcher.
Mundell explained to me that, in fact, the euro is of a piece with Reaganomics:
"Monetary discipline forces fiscal discipline on the politicians as well."
And when crises arise, economically disarmed nations have little to do but wipe away government regulations wholesale, privatize state industries en masse, slash taxes and send the European welfare state down the drain.
Keynes was not a Keynesian. He was a Post Keynesian!26 June, 2015 at 18:23 | Posted in Economics | 1 Comment
But these more recent writers like their predecessors were still dealing with a system in which the amount of the factors employed was given and the other relevant facts were known more or less for certain. This does not mean that they were dealing with a system in which change was ruled out, or even one in which the disappointment of expectation was ruled out. But at any given time facts and expectations were assumed to be given in a definite and calculable form; and risks, of which, tho admitted, not much notice was taken, were supposed to be capable of an exact actuarial computation. The calculus of probability, tho mention of it was kept in the background, was supposed to be capable of reducing uncertainty to the same calculable status as that of certainty itself …
Thus the fact that our knowledge of the future is fluctuating, vague and uncertain, renders Wealth a peculiarly unsuitable subject for the methods of the classical economic theory.
And this emphasis on the importance of uncertainty is not even mentioned in IS-LM Keynesianism …
Minimum wage myths26 June, 2015 at 08:43 | Posted in Economics | Leave a comment
Back in 1992, New Jersey raised the minimum wage by 18 per cent while its neighbour state, Pennsylvania, left its minimum wage unchanged. Unemployment in New Jersey should — according to mainstream economic theory — have increased relative to Pennsylvania. However, when economists Alan Krueger and David Card gathered information on fast food restaurants in the two states, it turned out that unemployment had actually decreased in New Jersey relative to that in Pennsylvania. Counter to neoclassical demand theory we had an anomalous case of a backward-sloping supply curve.
Lo and behold!
But of course — when facts and theory don't agree, it's the facts that have to be wrong …
The inverse relationship between quantity demanded and price is the core proposition in economic science, which embodies the pre-supposition that human choice behavior is sufficiently rational to allow predictions to be made. Just as no physicist would claim that "water runs uphill," no self-respecting economist would claim that increases in the minimum wage increase employment. Such a claim, if seriously advanced, becomes equivalent to a denial that there is even minimal scientific content in economics, and that, in consequence, economists can do nothing but write as advocates for ideological interests. Fortunately, only a handful of economists are willing to throw over the teaching of two centuries; we have not yet become a bevy of camp-following whores.

The end of comparative advantage25 June, 2015 at 13:39 | Posted in Economics | Leave a comment
The classical theory of comparative advantage has driven US trade policy for the past fifty years. That policy, in combination with technical innovations that have lowered costs of transportation and communication, has opened the global economy. Yet paradoxically, this opening has rendered classical trade theory obsolete. That in turn has left the US economically vulnerable because its trade policy remains stuck in the past and based on ideas that no longer hold.
The logic behind classical free trade is that all can benefit when countries specialize in producing those things in which they have comparative advantage. The necessary requirement is that the means of production (capital and technology) are internationally immobile and stuck in each country. That is what globalization has undone.
Several years ago Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric, captured the new reality when he talked of ideally having every plant you own on a barge. The economic logic was that factories should float between countries to take advantage of lowest costs, be they due to under-valued exchange rates, low taxes, subsidies, or a surfeit of cheap labor …
The U.S. and European response to Welch's barge has been competitiveness policy that advocates measures such as increased education spending to improve skills; lower corporate tax rates; and investment and R&D incentives. The thinking is increased competitiveness can make Europe and the US more attractive to businesses.
Unfortunately, competitiveness policy is not up to the task of anchoring the barge, and it can even be counter-productive. The core problem is corporations are globally mobile. Thus, government can subsidize R&D spending, but the resulting innovations may simply end up in new offshore factories …
A critical consequence of Welch's barge is the creation of a corporation versus country divide. Previously, when corporations were nationally based, profit maximization by business contributed to national economic success by ensuring efficient resource use. Today, corporations still maximize profits, but they do so from the standpoint of their global operations. Consequently, what is good for corporations may not be good for country …
As always with Palley — thought-provoking and interesting.
Re comparative advantage yours truly has argued in a similar vein in The Dialectics of Globalization (in Swedish).

About the programme
The Erasmus Mundus Master Course in Coastal and Marine Engineering and Management (CoMEM), is a two-year English taught international Master's programme. The programme is offered by a consortium of five recognised European universities. All participating universities have long-standing relations with the industry, public works administrations and research and education institutes:
- The Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway
- Polytechnic University of Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain
- Technical University of Delft, The Netherlands
- City University London, United Kingdom
- University of Southampton, United Kingdom
During the programme, students study in two or three different countries depending on the individual track of study.
The students will familiarise themselves with key issues involved in providing sustainable, environmentally friendly, legally and economically acceptable solutions to a variety of challenges related to the CoMEM field.
Studying in multiple European countries will enable students to meet and work with professionals from various backgrounds, gather knowledge on a wide range of issues and a comprehensive EU perspective on CoMEM related challenges. This will enable students to develop a coherent and integrated approach that is applicable in a global perspective as well.

Imagine you're a cop. It's early on a Saturday morning and the sun hasn't even risen yet. You're on your beat, prepped for action. Suddenly, you hear a rustling from behind a corner. You prepare for the worst; who knows what's about to emerge? And then, you see it. It's not a criminal at all. It's just a little, lost puppy dog looking for a friend! Well, if you're Officer Kareem Garibaldi of Lakeland, Florida, you're exactly what this dog is looking for. Rather than ignoring the sweet mutt, who is a mix of a pit bull and a Boxer, Officer Garibaldi took the pup under his wing and tried to keep her safe. But, with no collar, finding the pup's home would prove to be a challenge.
After wandering the streets for a few hours with the stray to no avail, Officer Garibaldi dropped the pup off at the precinct before heading out to finish his beat. When nobody claimed the dog at the end of his shift, Garibaldi took the dog home with the intention of finding her owners the next day. But, as the next shift drew to a close, the cop was no closer to finding a home for this dog and realized that he had stumbled into a brand new heap of responsibility. Anyone else could have dropped the dog off at the pound, but not Officer Garibaldi. He headed to a local branch of the SPCA to get the dog checked out and waited patiently to make sure she was in good health.
Exhausted from their busy 48 hours, Officer Garibaldi and the puppy took the opportunity to catch some much-needed Z's while waiting for the checkup.
But Officer Garibaldi couldn't stop worrying about the plucky puppy and kept waking up to check on her and make sure she was alright.
When the exam happened, the puppy was found to be in excellent health, with the exception of a few mites. She was returned to the precinct where one of the dispatchers immediately fell in puppy love with her, named her Hope, and took her home to start a new life. None of this would have been possible without the efforts of Officer Garibaldi.

It's like GLITTER FIRST then colour second. Which sucks because, for the looks I want to create, I have to remember that the silver glitter appears first THEN I have to patch more colours. It's hard to work with. Then all the silver falls on my cheeks.
When blending, the glitter goes everywhere. I have to apply more just to get the colour to show up, but blending takes away the colour quickly. Thus leaving behind more silver. Thus I have to reapply the colour. It's a mess! But the colours are beautiful when they work, I like Snakebite and YDK a lot. I find I'm not very creative with Naked2, most of the colours work alone and don't work together. I have to pull colours from other palettes and other brands to finish my looks.
Compared to Naked:
Naked is warmer and it works well on my warm-toned, light Chinese skin (C3 with Face & Body Foundation). I find Naked to be much more glamorous than everyday. In fact I use Naked2 during daytime a lot more but the Naked2 looks aren't that special. I enjoy and have fun with the Naked palette, I love the smokey glam Naked creates, and I find Naked's daytime looks to be more elegant than Naked2. The looks I create from Naked2 are simple, casual, and it's probably my warm skin but I can't be glam with Naked2! The golds in Naked work better on me than the grey-based colours in Naked2.
I do prefer the lighter colours on Naked2 than Naked.
Compared to Naked3:
Naked3 also works better on my warm skin, it's rose/pink and it makes me look girly/pretty-type of casual. I love the smokey looks I create with Naked3, they look more natural on me. Naked2's smokey looks are too silvery and glittery, almost white. It makes my eyes stand out a lot but in a bad way.
So yeah it's not my favourite palette. But it's my palette of choice as a gift for my aunt (45 years old but looks 30, beautiful light (cool-toned) Chinese skin, works and lives in Hong Kong) since it's so casual. Naked palette is darker and intimidating! She really enjoys Naked2.

Great colors featuring peaches, roses and shades of bronze. Unfortunately, this eyeshadow is not very good for sensitive eyes. My eyes are always irritated after applying it. It seems to be very powdery and goes everywhere. After blending for a long time, it does last. For $54, there are a lot of colors but it's not the right product for me.

I really loved this palette.... for a time.
The colors are cooler toned, a bit chalkier then Naked 1, but still nice and blendable. My favorite shades were Tease, Bootycall, and Suspect. I used this palette daily when I first got it.
My beef with this palette is the packaging. Some readers have liked it, I hate it. It is a flimsy, slippery metal that has flown off my countertop and broken every time. First its the little clips that keep the lid closed, those broke off. Then the colors pop out with barely any help. My first palette lost one clip and two shadows- I glued the shadows back in and kept the palette closed with an elastic. Then from simply being knocked from counter into sink, the other clip came off and two powders broke and got everywhere. I repurchased and the other lost its clips like the last one and two powders popped out and spilled everywhere. I used the palette missing the two colors for a while before I officially retired it out of frustration. The black powder, Blackout, broke and got in all my other shadows.
I gave up and went out an bought Tease, my only 'must have' color from this set. Pretty much every other color can be found in a similar form in the other palettes. No other colors were especially remarkable. I have Naked 1 and Naked 3 and am happy with those two. I have not had any powders pop out of break up on either 1 or 3.
If they made a better packaging I'd be happier with the product and buy again but after two purchases I wouldn't waste my money again!

I really do enjoy this palette. The colors are gorgeous and there is endless looks you can create with it. The packaging is really cute and I love the brush that comes in it. The only thing is that most of the colors are pigmented. I wish there was more matte colors in the palette. Overall this is a great product!

I love this palette! Urban Decay does not test on animals and they make good cosmetics. The eye shadow shades are beautiful and you can do dramatic or natural eye makeup using this palette. My favorite eye shadow palette :)

This palette is amazing and very suitable for my cool-toned skin.
The colors blend amazing and the price is so good for that amount of eyeshadows.
I just wished there were more matte colors - but that haven't stopped me from also buying Naked 1 and Naked 3. I just can't get enough of these!

1Know The Signs Of A Heart Attack
A Heart Attack can strike at any moment, and when they do, urgent medical attention is needed.
But what are the signs of a Heart Attack?
Would you know if you or someone else was having a heart attack?
Everyday heart attacks get overlooked, this is because the signs and symptoms can often be difficult to diagnose and often get overlooked.
The Hollywood images that spring to mind; of people clutching their chests and dropping to the ground more often than not isn't what happens in real life.
In fact some of the symptoms don't even occur in the chest and this makes it even more difficult to tell what is going on.
The truth is anyone can suffer a heart attack and the best advice is to get yourself checked if you are not sure, particularly people who suffer with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes or if you are over 60 as these people have the greatest risk and obviously the more of these risk factors you have the higher risk you will be at.
Following are the 10 most common symptoms…

24-hour Sun Diner
Tackle breakfast at any time of day (or night) at this new downtown spot.
Written By: Nancy Vienneau
Photographers: Danielle Atkins
Whether it's your rise-and-shine meal as you go out to brave the day, or your saving grace in the wee hours after a night of honky-tonkin', Sun Diner is there to fortify, serving breakfast fare around the clock. Taking its inspiration from the legendary Sun Records, which launched the careers of The King and The Man in Black, the music-themed diner is fittingly housed next door to the Johnny Cash Museum. Fate or fortune—it's the ideal spot for a 24-hour joint in the heart of Music City.
In creating Sun Diner, TC Restaurant Group partnered with Sun Records to assemble memorabilia. The sunny walls are adorned with all manner of cool photographs of Sun stars, including the Million Dollar Quartet: Presley, Cash, Carl Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis. (Naturally, they play the tunes to match.) They also tapped into an old school ambiance—retro booths and chrome counter seating, vintage napkin dispensers, and neon signs proclaiming, "Fresh Coffee Hamburgers and Breakfast Served All Day."
>>> Local Music Museums
Breakfast is the name of the game, and, in designing the menu, executive chef Tomasz Wosiak incorporates some of the usual suspects, with some decidedly creative ones. You can get tasty eggs cooked to order, with your choice of bacon, sausage, hash browns, and toast, if a classic hearty breakfast is your heart's desire. For breakfast reinvented, try the Hangover Flatbread. Layered on crisp lavosh are scrambled eggs, bacon, cheeses, green onions, and kettle chips. It's got a terrific balance of soft, savory elements and salty crunch—and, if you're in hangover hell, the right combo of carbs and protein to help set you straight.
For a healthier spin, get the Johnny B Good, a flatbread topped with scrambled egg whites, fresh spinach, white cheeses, and pico de gallo. The Donut Breakfast Sandwich that's made of sausage patty, fried egg, and cheddar tucked in a glazed donut bun may seem crazy—but the meld of savory and sweet works. Crème Brulee French Toast is like a lavish dessert: thick slices of cinnamon bread griddled in a batter made with Rum-chata (a heady liqueur of Caribbean rum, cream, and Horchata) and mounded with whipped cream, candied pecans, and fresh berries.

So UK knife crime is getting out of hand. We've known it for ages and we've known the solution for ages too. Make the punishment for even getting caught carrying a knife more servere. Count me in with the 60% that think if you get caught carrying a knife you should go straight to jail, I think for a month.
This could serve as a wake up call for the yob in question. The yob should be forced to watch lot's of video's of interviews of serious knife crime offenders while there. The yob will get to see that he's going to lose out on having a life in general for a long time & get to understand what that's like.
On 'weapons' in general I want to make one simple point. Knives & guns (& bombs) don't kill people, people kill people! These weapons are just some tool's people use to kill with. I had a penknife as as kid. Looking back, it was kind of a gesture from my dad when he presented me with my first penknife that he thought I was more grown up & responsible. The thought of using it for self defence never even entered my mind.
The nanny state created this problem & only getting real tough on people carrying knives will solve the problem now. The government needs to build more jail space. Make sure the yob can easily be found a space in jail to get their wake up call. Right now the yob's attitude to being caught with a knife is that they will only get a slap on the wrist at worst. Only when the yob's get to understand carrying a knife is a one way ticket to a jail cell for a month will they start to think twice about carrying a knife in the first place.
If they get caught carrying a knife a second time make sure that's a guaranteed one way ticket to a jail cell for 3 months. Also make sure the full jail term is served in both cases, no get out of jail early allowed. The whole point of 'the punishment must fit the crime' in general is to deter people from letting themselves end up in jail in the first place. Make a jail term & uncomfortable experience, no TVs in cell's. Try giving them a book instead. If they can't read teach them how to.
What do you think about knife crime?

An impressive knockout win by Filipino Manny Pacquiao over American rival Timothy Bradley could lead to another fight for the Filipino champion, possibly against Floyd Mayweather, according to a boxing analyst.
Pacquiao and Bradley will face each other for the third time in their careers with both winning one match each in previous meetings.
Leo Reyes of Digital Journal opines that the Pacquiao-Bradley 3 bout could open the door for Pacquiao to reconsider his retirement especially if the Filipino champion delivers an impressive KO win.
"As [Bob] Arum continues to shell out $20 million for a typical Pacquiao fight despite his six-year KO holiday, a knockout win for Pacquiao against Bradley on April 9 would likely trigger a new series of lucrative fights for the Filipino fighter," Reyes, a respected boxing writer, stated in his article
"A KO win by Pacquiao in his third encounter with Bradley and another knockout win by the end of the year would only mean that Pacquiao's shoulder injury was in fact the culprit in his KO holidays during the past six years."
As noted by Reyes, Pacquiao has not won via knockout since his TKO win over Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto in 2010. Pacquiao is 7-3 since that fight with all wins coming via unanimous decisions. His three losses came against Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez in 2008 and Floyd Mayweather in 2015.
Reyes added that an impressive performance against Bradley and succeeding fights could lure Mayweather back to the ring.
"It won't be surprising if Mayweather will come out of retirement once Pacquiao starts knocking out his next opponents as a result of his successful shoulder surgery. If that happens, a second fight against the unbeaten champion could even dwarf the historic revenue that was generated during their last fight," Reyes stated.
Pacquiao, who has insisted this will be the final fight in his career, will face Bradley on April 9, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada in the United States.

Snow White was driving hastily through West Hollywood, swerving her SUV out of a lane of cars jammed in traffic.
Opportunities to make U-turns on Santa Monica Boulevard don't come frequently, so Lily Collins — who plays the classic fairy-tale princess in Friday's"Mirror Mirror" — pulled a quick illegal maneuver to minimize her time in the car.
"It would have taken forever otherwise," the actress said in the parking lot of the French Market Place, a West Hollywood compound housing a restaurant and various stores selling kitschy costume jewelry and movie memorabilia.
Collins' aggressive driving — in the Land Rover she got seven years ago for her 16th birthday — was about all that didn't seem to square with her guileless demeanor, the one that helped her land her first leading role as the innocent Snow White.

Darwin suggested that all life on Earth could be phylogenetically related. Modern biology has confirmed Darwin's extraordinary insight; the existence of a universal genetic code is just one of many evidences of our common ancestry. Based on the three domain phylogeny proposed by Woese and Fox in the early 1970s that all living beings can be classified on one of three main cellular lineages (Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya), it is possible to reconstruct some of the characteristics of the Last Universal Common Ancestor or cenancestor. Comparative genomics of organisms from the three domains has shown that the cenancestor was not a direct descendant of the prebiotic soup nor a primitive cellular entity where the genotype and the phenotype had an imprecise relationship (i.e., a progenote), rather it was an organism similar in complexity to extant cells. Due to the process of horizontal gene transfer and secondary gene losses, several questions regarding the nature of the cenancestor remain unsolved. However, attempts to infer its nature have led to the identification of a set of universally conserved genes. The research on the nature of the last universal common ancestor promises to shed light on fundamental aspects of living beings.

One Ancestor "tous pour un, un pour tous"
All living beings have much in common, in their chemical composition, their cellular structure, their laws of growth, and their liability to injurious influences… Therefore, on the principle of natural selection with divergence of character, it does not seem incredible that, from such low and intermediate form both animals and plants may have been developed; and, if we admit this, we must likewise admit that all the organic beings which have ever lived on this earth may have descended from someone primordial form.
Present-day biology, including biochemistry, molecular phylogeny, and comparative genomics, has confirmed Darwin's extraordinary insight, i.e., that all living beings descent ultimately from a single species.
Information from one single molecular marker does not necessarily yield a precise reconstruction of evolutionary processes, but as indicated by many phylogenies constructed from other genes such as those encoding polymerases, ATPase subunits, elongation factors, and ribosomal proteins. The identification of the three major lineages is not an artifact based exclusively on the reductionist extrapolation of information derived from a single gene (i.e., the 16SrRNA) but a true reflection of a common ancestry of all living forms. This is in accordance with the fact that all organisms share the same genetic code and crucial features of genome replication, gene expression, membrane-associated ATPase-mediated energy production, and basic anabolic reactions. Minor variations in the previous process can be easily explained as the outcome of divergent processes from an ancestral life form of the three major biological domains (Delaye et al. 2001; Becerra et al. 2007).
Phylogenetic analysis of rRNA sequences is acknowledged as a prime force in systematics and from its very inception, had a major impact in our understanding of cellular evolution. As exposed by the unrooted rRNA trees, no single domain predates the other two, and all three derive from a common ancestor. Recognition of the differences that exist between the transcriptional and translational machineries of the Bacteria, Archaea, and Eucarya, which were assumed to be the result of independent evolutionary refinements, led to the conclusion that the primary branches were the descendants of a progenote, a hypothetical biological entity in which phenotype and genotype still had an imprecise, rudimentary linkage relationship (Woese and Fox 1977). That is a biological entity where the phenotype and genotype are the same, i.e. a much simpler biological entity than any extant cell. From an evolutionary point of view, it is reasonable to assume that at some point in time the ancestors of all forms of life must have been less complex than even the simpler extant cells. However, the conclusion that the last common ancestor (LCA) was a progenote was disputed when the analysis of homologous traits found among some of its descendants suggested that it was not a protocell or any other pre-life progenitor system (Lazcano et al. 1992) but an organism similar in complexity to ext\ant prokaryotes.
In those years, the inventory of such shared traits was small, but it was surmised that the sketchy picture developed with the limited data bases would be confirmed when there were completely sequenced cell genomes from the three primary domains. This has not been the case: the availability of an increasingly large number of completely sequenced cellular genomes has sparked new debates, rekindling the discussion on the nature of the ancestral entity (Doolittle 2000). This is shown, for instance, in the diversity of names that have been coined to describe it: progenote (Woese and Fox 1977), cenancestor (Fitch and Upper 1987), last universal cellular ancestor (Philippe and Forterre 1999), and last common community (Line 2002), among others. These terms are not truly synonymous, and they reflect the current controversies on the nature of the universal ancestor and the evolutionary processes that shaped it.
Reconstructing the Cenancestor
As mentioned above, all life on Earth uses exactly the same code to translate the information stored in DNA into proteins (with a few exceptions that are clearly evolutionary novelties). How is it possible that organisms as different as oak trees, Escherichia coli bacterium, amoebas, or ourselves share the same set of rules to read (translate) DNA? The answer is common ancestry; much in the same way that sisters and brothers resemble each other, features shared by all living beings were inherited from common ancestral species that lived millions of years ago.
We can use this knowledge to infer some features of the biology of this universal ancestor, or cenancestor. But in order to do such reconstruction, we need an evolutionary tree describing the phylogenetic relationships among all living beings on Earth. As mentioned, such a tree was proposed in the early 70's by Woese and Fox when using the 16SrRNA molecule to infer the phylogenetic relationships among organisms (Woese and Fox 1977). Before the work done by Woese and Fox, there were two main classification systems. In one of them, organisms were classified as Eukaryotes if their genetic material was compartmentalized by a membrane into a nucleus, or Prokaryotes if this structure is absent (Chatton 1938); in the other system, organisms were classified into five Kingdoms (Monera, Protists, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia) based on their overall biology (Whittaker 1969).
This methodology is not infallible, however. Processes such as secondary gene losses or horizontal gene transfers among different cellular lineages have the power to obscure the past (Becerra et al. 1997). This is, if there have been several secondary gene losses after the last common ancestor, then our reconstruction will underestimate the gene content of this hypothetical entity; conversely, if there have been a lot of horizontal gene transfer events during the early evolution of life, we will overestimate the gene content of the cenancestor. The precision of our reconstructions of the genome (and therefore our inferences about their biology) of the last universal common ancestor depends on the relative intensity of previous processes. For instance, the amount of horizontal gene transfer among prokaryotes is still hotly debated among researchers today (Glansdorff 2000; Gogarten and Townsend 2005; Zhaxybayeva and Doolittle 2011).
Despite the methodological difficulties outlined above, different attempts to reconstruct the nature of the last universal common ancestor have led to the identification of a set of highly conserved genes among all cells that very likely have been inherited from the cenancestor (Kyrpides et al. 1999; Doolittle, 2000;Brown et al. 2001; Harris et al. 2003; Mirkin et al. 2003; Yang et al. 2005; Delaye et al. 2005; Moreira and Lopez-Garcia 2006, Ranea et al. 2006, Ouzonis et al. 2006). The set is mainly composed of genes related to transcription and translation (i.e., the beta and beta' prime subunit of RNA polymerase, ribosomal proteins, and elongation factors) (Harris et al. 2003). Notably, the main replicative DNA polymerase is not present in this set. This has led to some authors suggesting that the last universal common ancestor had an RNA genome (Leipe et al. 1999), a dubious conclusion, however, because all present-day cells have DNA genomes.
Since all extant cells are endowed with DNA genomes, the most parsimonious conclusion is that this genetic polymer was already present in the cenancestral population. Although it is possible to recognize the evolutionary relatedness of various orthologous DNA informational proteins across the entire phylogenetic spectrum (Olsen and Woese 1997; Edgell and Doolittle 1997; Leipe et al. 1999; Penny and Poole 1999; Harris et al. 2003), comparative proteome analysis has shown that eubacterial replicative polymerases and primases lack homologues in the two other domains.
The peculiar distribution of the DNA replication machinery has led to suggestions not only of a cenancestor endowed with an RNA genome, but also of the polyphyletic origins of DNA and many of enzymes associated with DNA replication (Leipe et al. 1999; Koonin and Martin 2005) in which viruses may have played a central role (Forterre, 2006). Koonin and Martin (2005) have argued that the cenancestor was an acellular entity endowed with high numbers of RNA viral-like molecules that had originated abiotically within the cavities of a hydrothermal mound. This idea, which has little, if any, empirical support, does not take into account the problems involved with the abiotic synthesis and accumulation of ribonucleotides and polyribonucleotides, nor does it explain the emergence of functional RNA molecules.
It is difficult to accept these schemes. There are indeed manifold indications that RNA genomes existed during early stages of cellular evolution (Lazcano et al. 1988), but it is likely that double-stranded DNA genomes had become firmly established prior to the divergence of the three primary domains. It's especially likely, considering the sequence similarities shared by many ancient, large proteins found in all three domains that suggests considerable fidelity existed in the operative genetic system of their common ancestor, but such fidelity is unlikely to be found in RNA-based genetic systems (Reanney 1987; Lazcano et al. 1992)
Echoes from Ancient Worlds
Slight or no geological evidence of the environmental conditions on the early Earth at the time of the origin and early evolution of life, nor any molecular or physical vestiges that preceded the appearance of the first cellular organisms are found in the Archean fossil record. Also, the identification of the oldest paleontological traces of life remains a contentious issue. The early Archean geological record is scarce and controversial, and most of the sediments preserved from such times have been metamorphosed to a considerable extent. Although the biological origin of the microstructures present in the 3.5 × 109 year-old Apex Cherts of the Australian Warrawoona formation (Schopf 1993) has been disputed, at the time being, the weight of evidence favors the idea that life existed 3.5 billion years ago (Altermann and Kazmierczak 2003, Brasier et al. 2004, 2006).
Comparative genomics may provide signs to the genetic organization and biochemical complexity of the earlier entities from which the cenancestor evolved. Genes involved in RNA metabolism, i.e., genes whose products synthesize, degrade, or interact with RNA, are among the most highly conserved sequences common to all known genomes, and provide insights into an early stage in cell evolution during which RNA played a much more conspicuous biological role (Tekaia et al. 1999, Delaye and Lazcano 2000, Anantharaman et al. 2002). However, it is difficult to see how the applicability of comparative genomics can be extended beyond a threshold that corresponds to a period of cellular evolution in which protein biosynthesis was already in operation. Older stages are not yet amenable to molecular phylogenetic analysis. Although there have been considerable advances in the understanding of chemical processes that may have taken place before the emergence of the first living systems, life's beginnings are still shrouded in mystery. A phylogenetic approach to this problem is not feasible, since all possible intermediates that may have once existed have long disappeared. The temptation to do otherwise is best resisted. Given the huge gap existing in current descriptions of the evolutionary transition between the prebiotic synthesis of biochemical compounds and the cenancestor, it may be naive to attempt to describe the origin of life and the nature of the first living systems from the available rooted phylogenetic trees.
Remarks and Outlooks
Darwin suggested that species diverge from one another, generating a tree-like pattern of common ancestry. The existence of a universal ancestor is logically a derived from this mode of evolution. Modern biology has shown that Darwin's insights were correct. All living beings are very alike in their basic biochemistry and molecular biology; the existence of a common genetic code is one of the most prominent evidences of our common ancestry. However, reconstructing the biology of the cenancestor is not an easy task. Although the logic to recognize which genes have been inherited from the last common ancestor is straightforward (i.e., a gene that is present in Archaea, Eukaryaand Bacteria because of vertical inheritance was present in the last common ancestor), the accumulation of more than 3.5 billions of years of evolution from the cenancestor to extant biology makes the inference of the properties of this biological entity a formidable intellectual challenge.
However, it is clear that in spite of the qualitative and quantitative differences in the methodological approaches used to identify the gene complement of the cenancestor, the inventories show an overlap which reflects an impressive level of conservation of a significant number of sequences involved in basic biological processes. It is enough to assume that the cenancestor: (a) was not a progenote or a protocell, but an entity similar to extant prokaryotes; (b) was preceded by earlier entities in which RNA molecules played a more conspicuous role in cellular processes and in which ribosome-mediated protein synthesis had already evolved; (c) had a genome of DNA, originated prior to the evolutionary divergence of the three main cell domains; and (d) maybe was not an extremophile (Becerra et al. 2007).
