The Unverifiable World
The linguistic side has more than kept up with the technological side. Bad arguments are now a science. There are research studies on the best ways to produce talking points in response to a scandal. Every topic can be infinitely argued without any hope of resolution because the technology of bad faith debate is now widely accessible.
The fields of facts are just as bad. Don't like a study, produce another one. Don't like these numbers, find some other ones. Everything from polls to credit ratings can be juggled as many times as necessary and while that may not change reality, the only time reality is encountered is when it punches through the paper mache display. And when that happens, everyone just patches it up again.
Global Warming has become a creed without the science, whose enthusiasts keep cooking up numbers to prove what they know is true. Such behavior is hardly unprecedented in science, no matter what the PBS documentaries you watched as a kid may have told you, but it's the default mode in all fields now. Science has become a religion with ten thousand quarreling prophets threatening to burn each other at the climate change stake.
The proliferation of bad faith experts, experts for hire and amateur experts means that there is more bad science than there is good science, more wrong ideas than right ideas, and no interest in turning the leaky boat around and finding some safe harbor on the shore.
The advancement of civilization depended on developing methods of sorting ideas based on objective standards while the program of the left has been the politicization of objectivity. Without standards there is no way to agree on anything without resorting to force. This force does not necessarily have to be physical, it can simply mean seizing control of enough institutions to distribute a manufactured consensus to everyone under the control of those institutions.
That is how the left works for now, but that's just a sophisticated version of Lenin's plan to take control of Russia by seizing all the banks and telegraphs. And no legitimate consensus can be achieved through this method, only the perpetuation of a cultural war fought between those who control the institutions and those who do not. This war is not really about the truth, because no argument can ever be settled when the tools to settle an argument are no longer a part of our politicized institutions; it's always about control.
Our civilization is sophisticated enough to deconstruct everything but incapable of constructing anything. We're still capable of a certain amount of technological innovation in the consumer realm, but outside of it we have slowed down to a crawl. Anything that can make life more convenient and entertaining for the individual in the urban and suburban cradle is shooting forward, but anything larger than the individual has ground to a halt.
The Federal budget is bigger than ever, but the space program is dead, military innovation is limited and the infrastructure is crumbling. Between 1900 and 1960, the state of the country was transformed with big projects and big ideas. In the next 60 years, the home was transformed by consumer electronics and the family fell apart. The city decayed and was replaced by the suburb. The great national projects were no longer dedicated to building the country, but to massive social welfare.
Intellectually the implosion was far worse. Everything was deconstructed and nothing was constructed. The objective was replaced by the subjective. Reason was replaced by emotion. Canon made way for trend. Dada's aggressive need to destroy everything for the sake of destruction became the motivating principle in literature, architecture and art. Each new revolution in the senseless existed only to make what had come before irrelevant, only to then be destroyed in a new revolution. Each new revolution was more subjective and less structured, a secret language into an individual psyche that could only be decoded by the artist, rather than a meaningful communication of values to a society.
Savages can kill each other, but they can't communicate with each other. You can't prove anything to a savage, because a savage does not believe in objective standards of proof. The savage is a subjective creature. All he knows is what he feels and he is unaware and unwilling to discuss the process through which the ideas that shape his feelings have been communicated. This is his ultimate taboo. For the savage, communication is a means of asserting his own strength and power. That is a phenomenon you can study in the Amazon or in YouTube comments. It is not a means of achieving an understanding because for the savage there is nothing to understand. Understanding requires thought and the savage feels, rather than thinks. Only those ideas which come to him as emotions and embody his sense of self are integrated into his worldview.
In the age of the savage, communications can be sophisticated in scope and technique, but empty in content. The savage can develop sophisticated languages and means of transmitting words, but he cannot make the words mean anything. He can deconstruct language, but all he can do is toy with its meanings. The savage does not use language to communicate by transcending his subjective self with an objective understanding, rather he degrades language by distorting it so that it only reflects his subjective feelings, rather than objective truths. Everything the savage says is a lie, because all his ideas are expressions of his feelings. A truth that transcends his feelings is foreign to him.
For the savage, truth is not found in an authenticity conveyed by logic or evidence, but in emotional authenticity. He cannot be communicated with, only related to.
The savage engages in emotional displays reverting to the most primitive form of communication that depends not on ideas, but on intent. For the savage, intent matters more than ideas and his ability to discuss an issue is limited to the bad faith or good faith of the other party. The savage is not interested in numbers or facts. These things are, like everything in his world, subjective.
A set of numbers that is communicated to him with a believable emotional display is more convincing to him than one that is conveyed without the same display. The numbers mean nothing to him, even if he is educated, it is only the emotional display that he processes and reacts to. One plus one does not mean two unless he feels emotionally that it means two. If he does not feel it, then he can engage in complicated arguments for why it does not. Or he can bare his teeth and shake a stick.
A savage world is a mysterious and frightening place where nothing can be proven except by a show of force or emotion. There is no cause and effect and nothing happens by necessity. A rule may mean one thing one day and another the next. The inconsistency cannot be conveyed to the savage because his mind lacks any notion of consistency. The world of the savage is a changeable place that follows only those rules that he accepts at any given moment.
The savage is creative, but not stable. He can move by leaps and bounds, but he cannot progress by steady effort. He often hits on shortcuts to achieve his short term goals, but his moves depend on intuition rather than logic. He does not solve problems by reasoning them out, but by tinkering with them until inspiration strikes.
Economics, atmospheric research, military options and even the most practical elements of government boil down into tribal wars between genders, races and places. Urban and rural. Black and white. Male and female. Native and immigrant. Religious and irreligious. The labels are infinite and so are the wars. Demands for proof are insincere delaying tactics because nothing can ever be proven to the satisfaction of the other side. All that matters is the power of the tribe and their control over one area of life or another.
This is what the United States of America has been degraded into. A nation and a civilization that once made the world run has been reduced to a culture where politics is at the center of everything. Political affiliation, once an issue of limited application, has become a metaphor for the entire intellectual landscape. There is no more science, no more literature, no more economics, no more art and no more entertainment. There is only politics.
Politics is innately tribal. The politicization of everything is also the tribalization of everything. It is the beginning of savagery and the end of civilization.

Great article! I've been feeling this way for a while now... I guess since '08, culminating in the boiled over rage & bush hatred, everything became politicized. I'm hoping you can answer an unrelated question that I've been wondering; do you have any idea what % of moslem's worldwide are radical jihadists? General educated guess? Thank you, appreciate your gift~

Do you mean the percentage of Muslims who are willing to enlist in terrorist groups or the number who support them and approve of their actions.
The former number is obviously limited and hard to estimate, but the latter number is fairly high even in the West and can be estimated from opinion surveys of Muslims such as the Pew poll.

Dadaism and surrealism may be absurd and dreamlike - but its uniquely Western.
We don't think in literal terms the way other cultures do - and this ability to progress in our idea has explained the rise of the West since the Middle Ages.
Time never stands still with us. Not everything about it is good but its underlying strength that can barely be contained. Neither Islam or Oswald Spengler ever appreciated the West's true talent not only in innovation but in literally being able to renew itself when it seemed to be at the end of its life.
No earlier civilization has boasted such prodigious energy and those who proclaim the Decline Of The West is set in stone have invariably turned out to be wrong - the West defeated Nazism and Communism and Islam is but its latest competitor for dominance of the stage of history.

The West combined the logic and might of Rome with forward thinking of Christianity - which taught that Golden Age of civilization existed not in the past but the future. The Christians who ruled the late Roman Empire after the 4th Century took the classical heritage they inherited and gave it a new meaning. As the ancient world was collapsing in chaos, everything was done to preserve order and preserve the best of the old learning for the future. Its true we live nowadays in a post-Christian world but we are still influenced by - and are heirs of the legacy it left us which runs from St. Augustine right down to the secular thinkers of our own day.
Let's not be ashamed to say it - the West is that unique shotgun child of Rome and Jerusalem and we have a foot in each of those worlds that helped to create the one that remade the planet on which we now live.

After almost 200 years of constant attacks on the foundations of Western civilization by the Left, from Antonio Gramsci, to the Frankfurt school, to MSNBC, I think it's nothing short of a miracle the West isn't in worse shape.

Good that you rid the comment section of the spewed filth.
The easy access and ever increasing spread of knowledge shakes the foundation of the truth of everything.
In Gemara study our sages never agreed on anything and if by chance too many do agree they considered that the concept must be wrong.
Mathematics are the only non debatables in this world (maybe).

MindRider: in the spirit of the superb article we've just read, let me point out, without acrimony, that the first half of your statement "In Gemara study our sages never agreed on anything" is incorrect, and the second half "and if by chance too many do agree they considered that the concept must be wrong" is downright bizarre. Perhaps you are confusing Talmudic discussion with the adjudication of capital cases? The sages of the Gemara agreed on vastly more than they disagreed. The fact that the Bavli is full of disputation should not obscure the enormous consensus that existed on most major topics among the Sages. There are hermeneutical principles, rules of debate, "out of bound" arguments, and the entire written Torah that all agree to be authoritative. It would take days to type out all the principles that they agreed upon. The fact is that you can't debate for 4000 pages if you don't agree on fundamental principles.

In the coming dark age, most truth will be experienced between real people, in real time, in real communities, with a little inspiration and sagacious direction from para-prophets such as you, DG.
Thanks for sharin'. Keep up the good work. Your analyses are always profound and, though cynical, very encouraging because it is a comfort to know that someone, somewhere can still explain all this surreal dystopia in a way that makes some sense.

Perhaps one of your saddest and yet oddly beautiful articles.
Call me a dreamer but I will never let politics get in the way of my love of music, art, literature (music more than anything else). Nothing will spoil beautiful music in my ears.
And as much as a love digital photography I remember the old ways (1980s) way of going to a dark room (total blackness to the point where you must fumble around in total darkness to open the 35 mm canister open.

Precisely why I say that the age of debating the issues and political action is over. When two parties cannot agree of the most basic axioms, debate becomes impossible. When the political battle is waged by parties with opposing and irreconcilable worldviews, there can be no more politics. All that is left is war: Might Makes Right.
That is where we are now.
And that is why the gun shops are sold out, and why the federal entity -- the one that used to be a government, but is now merely the enforcement apparatus of the global satanic elite -- is buying up bullets by the billion.
Western Man turned his back on God five hundred years ago. That grand experiment in self-deification is now reaching its inevitable climax.
Might Makes Right. Them or Us. Soon we will all of us have to choose which side we are on: the side of men-like-gods, or the side of the Almighty. Choose wisely.

Daniel, excellent work as usual. Not only from a technical point of view, but in your overall snapshot of how our slippery counterparts think and operate.
With regards to your comment on the first poster's question, I would take it a step further. Not only would a sizable portion of Muslims support and approve of their actions, a sizable portion of Westerners, born and raised would do so as well. Academia is filled with them, for one. The students they indoctrinate spill forth into society, infesting its corridors and spewing their Western-guilt-ridden, yet paradoxically selfish revisionist historical worldviews.
They are in government, in your schools, turning your own kids against you, cheering on the demise of our civilization as if to fulfill some strange masochist urges. It sounds crazy on the face of it, but that is indeed what is happening.
That is part of the reason that you see the generation of Muslims that is born in the West to their immigrant parents far more extreme, radical and violent than their parents' generation was. At least the parents' generation had a sense of what it was like to live under the crushing grip of theocratic tyranny, which is why they moved to the West to get away from that. Their offspring has no grounding in that reality and once you combine that lack of experience with the anti-American indoctrination they receive through mass media, schools and Islamic teachings, you get a dangerous mix.

I firmly believe we have come to a point where discussion and argument are useless except in your own tribe.Controlling the argument(s to achieve a solution to our major cultural problems is not possible,and has not been for some time.Today it is not about winning or losing on an issue that hopefully will resolve some great problem,it is all about continuing the argument forever so nothing does get finished.The simple idea that cold hard facts and statistics no longer have logical bearing on outcomes is a perfect sign of this.This has been a planned splintering of our culture into fragments of tribes even within so-called former sub-cultures.99%of all media is swill for the masses,most art,literature and music is the product of morons who pander to the squirming masses begging for delusions.When it stops,and it all will,it will be epic.It will destroy all,in one way or the other.Even those that survive will be scarred forever,and yet the lemmings march on toward "progress"while pushing and shoving the unwilling and wiser over the cliff.There is only that solution because each has their own forceful agenda and will not yield to sanity.Prepare accordingly because we are done.

Come on, now. Do you really believe the Left is out to destroy our country while the Right is only out to save it? Both sides love this country and are sincere in their attempts to make it better. They sinply have different opinions about how to go about it. The writing in this article is really good, but the insights are, in many cases, defective. Just more partisan crap disguised as intellectualism.

I can understand your statement, as I used to feel that way too. But it isn't simply a matter of differing solutions offered to the same problem, with the same intentions in mind. It isn't, as you put it " different opinions about how to go about it". The "How" is just one part of it. A bigger part is "Where" we want to go and "Why" we want to go there.
The Left's ultimate goal on the surface is innocuous enough. But it doesn't even require any scratching of that surface to see that the grounding principles of the entire worldview is rooted in hatred of what America and Western values stand for, with the revisionist history painting them in the most negative light possible, as oppressors, invaders, racists, and misogynists, while the rest of the world are hapless victims who never enslaved, raped, killed and murdered.
While lower-level leftists may not think it themselves, the fact is that the leaders, backers and influencers of the Left sympathize and believe in Soviet, Marxist principles and have a deep disdain for the founding tenets of American society, namely the Constitution. They simply do not base their beliefs on the same premises. Collectivism is valued over individual rights. This manifests itself in virtually every single issue. Positive rights are valued over negative rights. Rights to, vs. freedoms from. Government encroachment is not a problem for the Left (unless of course George Bush is doing it, in which case it is a horrible thing).
In any case, I could go on, but the point is that the article isn't partisanship. Partisanship is not inherently bad, either, by the way. The worldview of the Left isn't merely a different way to help America. It is a different way to do something else entirely. And that something else is frightening.

Without emotion and subjectivity, though, it is impossible for society to survive. There would be no child-raising, no national defense, no cooperative efforts such as the large enterprises that manufacture and provide services. The only thing left would be individualistic utilitarianism.
It is natural to believe that I am rational but those who disagree with me are irrational; after all I am superior in mind and character. Beware of any idea that flatters you.

For the seventh straight year, the demand for family physicians outpaced the demand for other specialists, according to the annual Merritt Hawkins survey(www.merritthawkins.com), which was based on more than 3,000 recruiting assignments conducted by the health care search and consulting firm between April 1, 2012, and March 31.
The survey looked at medical specialties based on candidate population size and found that family medicine still is the "most requested and difficult search out there in terms of the sheer number of requests," said Travis Singleton, senior vice president for Merritt Hawkins.
FPs likely would be the most requested search based on the sheer volume of physicians in the specialty, said Singleton, but he added, "Family physicians are our No. 1 search request because of the demand, not just because of how big the specialty is."
Family medicine and internal medicine ranked first and second, respectively, in the survey in terms of most-requested searches. The top five recruitment areas in the survey are
Story highlights
- Family physicians topped the list of the most highly recruited physicians for the seventh straight year in a 2012-13 Merritt Hawkins survey.
- The survey findings affirm the dominance of family medicine in the nation's evolving health care system.
- Much of the growing demand for family physicians overall stems from a growing demand for employed FPs, in particular.
- family physicians, 624 searches;
- internal medicine physicians, 194 searches;
- hospitalists, 178 searches;
- psychiatrists, 168 searches; and
- emergency medicine physicians, 111 searches.
"The new mantra in health care is to be 'everywhere, all the time,'" said Mark Smith, president of Merritt Hawkins in a recent press release(merritthawkins.com). "This means reaching into communities with a growing number of free-standing facilities or other sites that are convenient and accessible. These facilities have one thing in common -- they all need primary care physicians."
Ongoing Demand
According to Merritt Hawkins, other factors also are driving the demand for family physicians. During the past decade, hospitals and health care systems have spent hundreds of millions of dollars building neuroscience labs, orthopedic centers, and heart and cancer centers. Increasingly, there is a realization among these hospitals and health centers that they need a primary care referral network to meet the needs of patients accessing the facilities, said Singleton.
Despite the demand for family medicine, however, the average salary offered to FPs in the Merritt Hawkins search assignments dropped slightly from $189,000 in 2012 to $185,000 in 2013. But, according to the survey, this decline "does not represent an easing of demand for family physician as much as a shift in the types of positions they are being recruited to fill."
"A growing number of Merritt Hawkins' family medicine search assignments are for outpatient-only settings where call is not required," said the survey. These settings may encompass "urgent care and emergency department settings or office-base settings where call is handled by hospitalists."
"Because these settings often are viewed as more desirable by physicians, income offers may not be as high as in less desirable settings. In addition, demand for family physicians in traditionally desirable geographic locations, such as metropolitan, ocean-front or mountain settings, is increasing, and facilities in these settings may not need to be as competitive as facilities in less desirable locations."
The survey also noted that "salary offers for family physicians grew from $173,000 in 2009 to $185,000 in 2013, an increase of 7 percent. At some point, salary offers for family physicians and other primary care physicians may reach a plateau that can only be raised by a change in reimbursement policy."
Salaried Positions
Like past surveys, this year's survey documents the growing number of physicians who are opting for salaried positions. In 2004, 11 percent of Merritt Hawkins search assignments were for employed physicians; today, that number stands at 64 percent, a trend that has profound implications for patient care.
According to Singleton, employed physicians, as a rule, may not be as financially or emotionally invested in a given practice as a physician owner. This makes it more likely that employed physicians will switch practices, leading to higher physician turnover rates.
"There is nothing tying these physicians to that practice or that hospital or system, meaning they can change flags at the drop of a hat," said Singleton.
"If the turnover is higher and the productivity is lower, it means we are going to need more physicians and to be more fluid in how we staff," said Singleton.
The survey also looked at overall compensation packages for physicians and found that nearly 40 percent of Merritt Hawkins' searches contained some type of quality-of-care component as part of the compensation. Nevertheless, these quality metrics affected less than 5 percent of individual physician compensation structures, hardly enough to change physician behaviors, according to Singleton.
Most compensation packages still are based primarily on production and relative value units, making quality metrics "aspirational" at this point, he said.

I suspect most people would agree that Quadics is a latency specialist, at least for not purely nearest-neighbor applications. OTOH, for cheap nodes, you should probably consider whether spending 50% of the node price makes sense for the performance boost. (I see 242-based servers starting at around $2k list, and your total gigabit cost would be less than $100/port.) Just to add to this list of options, there are currently a number of companies working on a newer Ethernet technology called RDMA over TCP/IP. Adapter cards that support this technology delivers lower latency and higher CPU utilization than standard GigE, but runs on standard Ethernet infrastructure (switches, cables, etc). I admit to working for one of those companies (Ammasso), but wanted to let you know about other alternatives. Rick

Grimes : Oblivion
My friend John has been telling me I need to check out Grimes for a while now, but it wasn't until Hazel posted her new video on the Rookie Tumblr that I was finally all OMG WAT. This shit is fucking amazing and I know that it's totally irrelevant but I am SO into her look in this video Everything about this is perfect and if I was 13 or something she would surely become my EVERYTHING. I've been listening to the song on repeat for a while now and I think I realized that one of the reasons why I love this track so much is because it has the same vibez as one of my all-time favorite bands, Mecano.
Mecano : Hoy No Me Puedo Levantar
Mecano : El Cine
The videos are totally/radically 80's but whatever, the VIBE is totally there! Awesome dance beats and same high pitched voice singing. I can't wait for her record to come out, I can totally see it becoming my record of the SUMMER.

Hain Celestial Offers Shot-Style Drinks for Energy, Sleep
Natural products leader The Hain Celestial Group Inc., Boulder, Colo., now offers a series of shot-style drinks designed to either provide a boost of energy or to assist with sleeping.
For some kick, Enerji Green Tea Energy Shots are powered by green tea's inherent caffeine. The drinks are also enhanced with energizing ingredients such as B-vitamins and ginseng. They come in three flavors: Berry, Citrus and Pomegranate Xtreme (with extra caffeine—for a total of 150mg).
Sleepytime Snooz Natural Sleep Aid Shots are said to support falling asleep faster and to lead to longer and better sleep, as well as waking up feeling refreshed. This dietary supplement features ingredients such as valerian and melatonin, and it comes in three soothing flavors: Berry, Lemon Ginger and Peach. The company has long marketed tea bags under the Sleepytime sub-brand.
"Research shows that nearly three out of four adults regularly struggle to get a good night's sleep," says Blake Waltrip, vice president and chief marketing officer. "With our brand's credibility in the relaxation category and the popularity of our Sleepytime product line, it makes sense for Celestial Seasonings to offer a safe and effective natural sleep aid to help consumers get the quality sleep they need."
Both products come in 2.5-oz bottles and contain 30 calories each. A single bottle retails for about $2.99.

In the same week that Jets owner Woody Johnson complained publicly about a perception that he cares more about making money than winning, he also called a meeting to privately address how the team can turn things around on the field.
Bob Glauber of Newsday reports that Johnson and team president Neil Glat sat down for about 45 minutes with all of the top football decision makers in an attempt to find out what can be done to improve the 3-6 team. Present at the meeting were General Manager Mike Tannenbaum, coach Rex Ryan, offensive coordinator Tony Sparano, defensive coordinator Mike Pettine and special teams coordinator Mike Westhoff.
Jets public relations director Bruce Speight confirmed the meeting took place and said Johnson wanted to "discuss how we can improve our performance moving forward." Speight called the meeting "calm and constructive."
But even if it was calm and constructive, when your boss calls you in for a meeting about how the work you're doing isn't good enough, that's not a great sign for your job security. If things don't turn around in the final seven games of the season, some or all of the people called in to speak with Johnson will be looking for work in 2013.

On Hill, W.H. defends prisoner swap
Senior Obama administration officials showed senators a private video of an ailing Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl to bolster their defense of a controversial deal to secure his release by swapping Taliban detainees — and leaving most of Congress in the dark.
Story Continued Below
But in a more than two-hour meeting, the administration failed to give lawmakers assurances that the five Taliban prisoners exchanged for Bergdahl would stay away from the battlefield, prompting bipartisan ire from senators as they left the tense classified briefing.
"Everybody is concerned about that," said Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.). "These are high-level people. This is not low level. … And these are people who basically have the ability to go back and hit the ground running."
( WATCH: Video of Bergdahl handover released)
While President Barack Obama continued his tour of Europe, his administration dispatched several officials to the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center for a rare private meeting in a secure facility that every senator was allowed to attend. The senators heard from James Dobbins, a State Department specialist on Afghanistan and Pakistan, Deputy Secretary of Defense Robert Work, Adm. James Winnefeld, vice chairman of the joint chiefs of staff and Robert Cardillo, deputy director of national intelligence.
The mood of the meeting was described as civil, but the questions were pointed. And it was clear that the administration failed to resolve concerns voiced by both parties — particularly Republicans.
Lawmakers expressed frustration that the administration didn't comply with legal requirements to give Congress 30 days notice before engaging in prisoner swaps and also questioned the wisdom of exchanging five Taliban prisoners detained in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, for a single U.S. prisoner — especially one who is facing growing allegations that he deserted his colleagues.
( Also on POLITICO: W.H. braced for Bergdahl backlash)
Speaking to reporters, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said he raised questions about both of those issues but didn't get acceptable answers.
"I'm not satisfied with the justification given with regards to not notifying Congress, and I'm deeply unsatisfied by the calculus that was used to determine that this was in the best national interest of the United States to move forward with releasing five dangerous individuals," Rubio said.
The video was shown to drive home the point that, in the administration's view, Bergdhal's condition was serious enough to warrant swift action.
Illinois Sen. Richard Drubin, the chamber's No. 2 Democrat, said Bergdahl's health was "one of the concerns" voiced by the administration in deciding to move quickly to "bring him home" — an opportunity "we hadn't had in a long, long time."
( Also on POLITICO: McCaskill assails 'rush to judgment')
The video was produced as a condition for negotiations with the Taliban and to prove that Bergdahl was still alive.
Durbin said the negotiations were "really moving extremely quickly at the end" and that the negotiation was "very complex" and came at the "last minute."
But others were skeptical. Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) said the video was produced about five months ago, so it "didn't mean much."
"I just find it difficult to believe it was the justification," Portman said.
The administration briefed Congress amid a swirl of rumors about the circumstances of Bergdahl's military service and the events that led to his capture. The White House pushed back on some press reports that suggested Bergdahl left a note at his base that included statements critical of the U.S. and the Afghan war.
( DRIVING THE DAY: Congress left out of Bergdahl deal)
"We were told today that is not true. There was no statement," said Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia, the top Republican on the Intelligence Committee and a strong critic of the White House's decision-making on the swap.
The cascading reports raising questions about Bergdahl's service were clearly starting to irritate senators who wish they could rebut them — but can't due to the classified nature of the briefing.
"There's a lot of facts the people don't have right now," said Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) "And this rush to judgment is frankly very un-American. Especially considering this is somebody who signed up and said: 'I'm willing to die for my country.' And was held in captivity for five years."
Most Republicans emerged from the meeting expressing frustration, arguing there was little new information.
"I didn't learn anything new that hadn't been reported," said Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.).

I haven't seen a whole lot of information on windows XP ICF so I thought I would write a tutorial on it. ICF stands for Internet Connection Firewall. It can cause some problems while trying to some basic tasks with your computer such as playing games online and even using your internet.
1. Finding out if ICF is enabled
Starters, to see if you even have internet connection firewall enabled on your computer, double click your internet connection located in your system tray. It looks like to monitors with side by side and the monitors flicker when ever you have the internet connection active and their is activity. If you do not see it there it can also be found by going into the start menu, then going to control panel. Before we go any farther to avoid confusion, at the top of the screen where you see file, edit etc, go to tools then folder options. In the general tab, under tasks click "show common tasks in folders". This is selected by default but it just makes it easier for you to have the same screen and procedures I am describing for you. Click apply then click "Network and Internet Connections", then click Network Connections, For the Connection that says something similar to LAN or Highspeed or Dial-up right click that connection and go to properties. Under the advanced Tab, there it is, Internet Connection Firewall.
2. Known problems if enabled
If your network uses internet connection sharing and the computer that is sharing the internet has this ICF all other computers on the network will not be able to use this internet connection. ICF typically allows all outgoing traffic and requests but limits incoming traffic and requests. Example, you are playing an online game, you can make the games but no one seems to join them, yet you are able to join other peoples games without any problems. You made the game, ICF okays that since it is outgoing. Someone tries to join your game, windows ICF will put a stop that so it looks like no one is trying to join your game.
3. Fixing and configuring windows ICF
you can either have the quick easy solution of disabling windows ICF (which you would have to do on a computer that is sharing its internet connection anyways) or you can configure it *hurrah*!
From the connection properties window under the advanced tab (the one were still in) click the Settings button on the bottom.
Under the Services Tab at the bottom click Add..
Type the name of the program or service that you want to be able to use the net, under description of Service. Next under name and IP you need the IP address. This can be found out serval ways, e-mailing the service your using, for example Warcraft III expansion, you would email blizzard requesting this additional information. Also note, that gaming bots are extremely useful for finding this information out for you, since they usually contain this information already in their settings or can be found in a log. The port number same deal as the previous situation.
4. I can connect to the internet but I can't see other computers on the network
ICF rarely has anything to do with this problem and typically can quickly be solved if both computers are windows XP on the network. Is by going into the the network connections, under the general tab click the install.. button. Select protocol then add,
then select NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS compatible Transport Protocol and okay. Close the Network Connection Properties window then in the tool bar under advanced -> Advanced Settings. Note if you have Network Connection Properties open this window will not open and it will give you and error. Make sure you have your NWlink box checked and go to okay, restart you computer and this will fix the problem on most normal computers.
5. I have wireless but every so often my connection speed quality decreases dramatically or I do not have a connection at all. This is most likely caused by your microwave if your wireless uses 2.4 Ghz frequency. There are remedies to help protect your self against your microwave, first change the channel of your wireless below 6 and above 0, Prefereably 1. These channels are least effective by microwaves, the higher the channels of your wireless the more you are vulnerable to evil microwave frequencies. Also, if possible move your microwave to your basement or have all wireless computers above the microwave and your wireless access point above the computers it is connected to, example, upstairs, networked with accesspoint, main floor wireless computers, basement microwave. Frequencies have an easier time actually moving down your house. Keep the microwave away from and vents. Frequency waves are just like sound waves, well they are pretty much EXACTLY like sound waves, so the interference will travel through the vents throughout the entire house with ease . Sound travels easier and faster through metal and solids rather then air. Example, ever put your head to the desk and started knocking on it? sounds a lot louder then you just having your head up or if your underwater and you hear an explosion and you return to the surface and you hear the same explosion yet again? This is proven in physics, I will dig up the formula if someone asks me too. Remember to change the channel on the access point... and also the wireless computers if they don't utilize channel scanning. Also if your ceiling has a room with ceiling tiles in it put the microwave in there. The cheap white ceiling tiles that are kinda cardboardish are a great shield against microwave waves.

Sony Unveils "Rolling" Screen
Shane McGlaun
May 26, 2010
Sony has long been working on a new generation of displays that are
flexible enough to be bent and shaped around an object. The first of
these flexible OLED displays to be seen from Sony surfaced
in 2007. The display offered 16.7 million colors and was 0.3mm
thick with a resolution of 160 × 120 and a 1,000:1 contrast
Sony has now announced a new breakthrough in flexible OLED displays that puts the 2007 unveiling to shame. The new screen that Sony has debuted is only 80nm thick and can be rolled around a pencil while displaying images on screen. The screen measures 4.1-inches and is a full color display. To create such a thin display, Sony used a new organic semiconductor material it developed called peri-Xanthenoxanthene (PXX).
PXX is important to the breakthrough because it is stable when exposed to oxygen, moisture, light, and heat. It also has an improved current modulation of eight-times compared to conventional organic semiconductor material pentacene. The new display is also the first flexible organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) that uses an integrated flexible gate-driver circuit.
The integrated flexible gate-drive is key because it allowed the removal of the ridged driver IC chips used in other displays. The design process also uses new organic insulators that can be formed in the atmosphere requiring fewer steps to produce making the construction process less time consuming and more efficient compared to traditional vacuum semiconductor processes.
Sony claims that the flexible display can be repeatedly rolled up to a radius of 4mm and stretched as many as 1,000 times without degradation in the ability to show moving images. The display can show over 16.7 million colors, has a contrast ratio of around 1,000:1, and a peak luminance of 100 cd/m2.

Step By Step
When I was growing up, my mother taught me that if I didn't have something nice to say, I should say nothing at all. As I grew to adulthood, this made me an eternal optimist, believing that something good can be found in every situation. Keeping this mindset and ignoring the naysayers, I have discovered that, when adjusted properly, the Cross-Fire EFI system can deliver excellent driveability.
We all know that there's no such thing as a bad Corvette, but if love and commitment are measured by loyalty, the General certainly put Corvette purists' devotion to the test with the 1982 and 1984 model years. Facing new competition from the Land of the Rising Sun (the Toyota Supra and Datsun 300 ZX Turbo), this is the rabbit they pulled out of their collective engineering hat--a wet-flow fuel-injection system with an intake manifold that offers an entry angle and port match to the cylinder head so poor that it wasn't really worthy of a Corvette.
But these cars are out there, largely ignored by the motoring press, including us at Corvette Fever. Knowing that the owners of Cross-Fires are as rabid as any other Corvette enthusiasts, we're anxious to make up for past transgressions, and have been collecting the most comprehensive Cross-Fire information to share with you. We started with Moses Ludel's fundamentals story in the Dec. 1999 issue and continue here. Robb Northrup has been hard at work, and there's more to come.
Mission Possible
This design had a few Achilles' heels: vacuum leaks at the plenum-to-intake gasket, worn throttle-body bushings, and out-of-balance throttle bodies. Our subject car, a 1982 with a small aftermarket cam and the complete factory fuel system still intact, suffered from a maladjusted EFI system.
The purpose of the balance setting is to synchronize both throttle bodies by having the throttle plates at the same opening angle. This can be accomplished after some maintenance procedures are performed. The throttle angle is determined by reading the venturi vacuum signal, which is very weak, but accurately tied to the throttle opening. This will require the use of an inches-of-water gauge, or manometer. They're available from most professional tool distributors. As we present the procedure to balance the EFI system, it may at first seem complex and confusing. But read it through a few times before trying to accomplish the task.
For this, Corvette Fever visited Owen's Auto Service in Trenton, New Jersey, where we worked with technician Bill Doran, who is the owner of our subject vehicle. Both Owen and Bill are Corvette aficionados and have worked extensively with all years of Corvettes, including the Cross-Fire system. If you feel that there is a little too much to this procedure or the investment in tools is too great for a one-time adjustment, the crew at Owen's will perform the complete setup for $275.

I don't mean it's lightbulb-shaped, or that I'm bald - I mean I daren't leave the house with it uncovered, because I wind up surrounded by manky, scrawny, intensely annoying creatures.
I must look miserable or something - like Hicks, complete strangers walk up to me and ask, What's wrong?
As if that's not bad enough, everywhere I go, people try to sell me drugs.
Look at that guy, they must think. There's a guy who looks desperate for some grass.
It's the same today, going to get a haircut, textbook example - I walk past a guy and he says, I don't suppose you know, eh... and I stop, assuming he's after directions.
But no - he wants to sell me drugs. I've previously been stopped by a guy trying to sell me speed when I was dressed in a suit and tie, having just left a meeting with the Minister for Justice.
And it's not just drug dealers and bleeding hearts that I attract - alcoholics, deranged and amorous women who don't understand the phrase I have a girlfriend, religious cranks, recently released stab-wound victims... all of them engage me in conversation in bars, bus stops and beer gardens.
Well, if you've been born with a gift, why not use it?
So this is an offer to readers - do you love taking vast quantities of drugs, but have difficulty procuring them?
Secret hankering for an illicit affair with a crazy woman, but too shy to do the legwork?
Well, drop me an email - for fifty quid, you can hire me to stand next to you for an evening. Before you know it, you'll be beating off coke dealers and slappers left, right and centre.

In 1898, as a young man of nearly 30, my paternal grandfather made the long trek to Nome, Alaska, lured by the glitter of gold. He left without a fortune, and went on to travel the world as a ship's engineer.
One hundred fourteen years later, a granddaughter he never met landed in Nome in pursuit of riches of a different style - the riches of the natural world - in particular, its birds. At the urging of avid birder and trip leader Bill Drummond, I signed on with 21 other adventurers for three weeks of Alaskan birding.
Nome sits on the southern edge of the Seward Peninsula, a town on the shores of the Bering Sea that during the gold rush days boasted a population of 28,000. Now, a scant 3,500 reside in this flat, treeless area surrounded by mountains and rolling tundra.
For years, I have been reading about songbirds, shorebirds, loons, terns and ducks that migrate thousands of miles each year to nest on the tundra. In my mind, the tundra was a cold, barren place, flat and lifeless. I couldn't imagine why the birds would want to do all that flapping, just to spend six weeks on the tundra and fly back.
What I've now seen with my own eyes is what the birds have known for centuries - when the snow melts, the tundra is a gloriously green and fertile place, vibrant with the colors of a wealth of blooming wildflowers. In late June, the sun rises at 4:25 in the morning and doesn't set until 1:45 the following morning. Nesting birds can spread out and hunker down in the thick, lush grass.
The highlight of our five days in Nome was the trek in pursuit of the bristle-thighed curlew. What, you might wonder, is so special about a large shorebird with a long, down-curved bill? After all, it just looks like a whimbrel with a buff-colored rump, and whimbrels migrate through coastal Georgia every spring and fall.
Many of these whimbrels also breed on the Alaskan tundra. However, while the world population of whimbrels is estimated to be about 800,000, there are only some 7,000 bristle-thighed curlews. These spend the winter on isolated islands in the Pacific and small numbers nest in western Alaska, near Nome or around the lower Yukon River.
Leaving Nome at 4:30 a.m., we piled into three vans and headed out of town on the bumpy gravel Kougarok Road. The skies were gray and foggy, the temperature in the 40s. Gradually, however, the sun emerged and when we arrived at 10:30 a.m., at a place where a narrow path snaked up a gently sloping ridge, we gratefully shed layers and prepared for the climb.
The hard part wasn't the slope, it was the footing. Tundra looks deceptively smooth at a distance. Up close, it is sort of like trying to walk on spongy, grass-covered bowling balls. The fringe benefit of having to constantly watch your feet was seeing the hundreds of tiny blooming wildflowers.
About 11:30, we reached the summit of the ridge. Half the group sat down to wait and listen, while two explorer parties struck out in either direction. We had been sitting some 15 minutes when we heard an eerie moaning yodel echo across the tundra. We sat in silent anticipation until the call came again - unmistakably that of the bristle-thighed curlew. Quickly, we moved toward the sound. We waited and watched but there was no sign of the bird. Again, people spread out from the main group.
Finally, the "touchdown" signal came from one of the explorer parties. We gathered around spotting scopes to watch the bristle-thighed curlew feeding in the grass. It flew and we could see its diagnostic buff-colored rump. We were able to follow it to where it landed on the ridge and enjoy seeing it wander about the tundra.
Glowing with the success of our endeavor, we began the slow trek back down the hill.
Stay tuned for Barrow, the Pribilofs, and beyond. Good birding!
