First of all, glad to hear that you were able to solve your problem. Secondly, as you and others most likley know by now, but rookies do not realize, is that these hot rods don't simply bolt together. With the wide variety of parts involved, (original, reproduction, NOS, steel, fiberglass, etc.) and the various quality from who knows how many sources, not everything is going to line up without some modification or alteration.
Even parts from the same vendor do not always fit the way they should. Yet, the long list of vendors makes it easier on all of us to participate as hot rodders. Dennis W. Parks author of automotive how-to books

Back to the fan - yes, it will work though it will not be as efficient if for no other reason, lack of a shroud plus that fan will block cooler air. You also need to be aware that the blades, if it is really a 'puller' that you want to convert, will not rotate the correct direction and reversing the motor leads MAY NOT work, or if it does, and the fan is a SPAL type, you again lose efficiency. There are some very thin fans available plus you can always mount two smaller fans offset from that water pump snout. Many folks like some of the late double Ford fans -

For those who don't want to shell out hundreds of dollars for a high-tech stereo like the Sonos, Gramofon should do just the trick.
Gramofon, part music streamer and part WiFi router, recently surpassed its Kickstarter goal of $250,000.
Here's how it works: you hook up your Gramofon to your existing stereo or speaker system. You then connect the box to the internet via its built-in Ethernet port or using your existing WiFi network. Next, simply connect your iOS or Android device to the Gramofon WiFi network.
Now you're ready to stream Spotify. Set-up literally takes less than five minutes, and it works flawlessly (we tried it). Spotify CEO Daniel Ek is also a fan.
Down the road, Gramofon intends to make it possible to play music from essentially any service — be that Spotify, Beats Music, Hype Machine, or Rhapsody. Another cool feature is that your Facebook friends can connect to your Gramofon network so that they can DJ too. Also, if your phone rings the music won't get interrupted.
Gramofon will ship to backers in July. Those who missed out on the Kickstarter campaign will have to wait until the fall to get their hands on a Gramofon, which will retail for $99.
Check out a 3D rendering of the Gramofon below.

Either way, my favorite was the white veggie (which I had also ordered at the Towson location and loved). Next time, if I were to get two pizza slices I would order that and a plain cheese pizza because I didn't like having two slices without any sauce, and their sauce is good too.
Anyway, love this place for a nice quick and cheap meal out.

that's not a harpoon, it's an early power saw

Speaking of Mountains of Madness and aliens, I would recommend the reading of "At the Mountains of Madness", by H.P. Lovecraft. A great novel depicting the epic journey of a scientific expedition on the antarctic continent.

1:53 AM is quite correct
- ka-pai said...
I've been in Scotts' Hut at Cape Evans. I stood next to his bed and saw the newspaper he left on the table. I admit that I felt a very eerie feeling and think that the 5 that died visit their abandoned huts.
The article only mentions Discovery Hut but the better preserved is the one at Cape Evans where they were last. You can still smell the ponies.

this is SO awesome :)
FASCINATING!!! :D :D - said...
Correct, its not a harpoon its a power saw for slicing the heads of whales prior to boiling down. I have seen one of these in action at Cheynes beach whaling station at Albany Western australia, 1970s. The place was horrendous.
- Julie said...
I would LOVE to explore these places!

You left out Byrd Surface Camp
- Survival Spot said...
It's amazing to see these kinds of bases, I wonder how much money has been spent on bases that are abandoned.
- said...
Your storyis all kinds of.. I dunno... wrong. You say 1000 to 4000 people at South Pole depending on the season? Sorry bro but there is only one south pole station and it cannot, ever, accomodate 1000 people. try 300 in the summer (max) and about 60-90 winter (depending on budget).
Your source is about Antarctica... NOT the south pole. Calling all of the Antarctica as "south pole" is like calling all of Europe by the name London. Or better yet, its like calling All of north America by the name of Quebec. - said...
The following is just semantics:
You say that Antarctica has the highest number of historical deaths (ghosts) relative to current population of any continent on earth. Considering the rate of population increase, this didn't immediately strike me as being wrong. However, the low end of estimates for the integral of human population over its entire history is 100billion, giving a global average of more than 14 dead individuals for every living one. This ignores declining infant mortality (assuming they qualify as ghosts?), but my guess is that Europe is the true recipient of the title in question. - Avi Abrams said...
Love this comment. We need more semantics like that. Thank you.
- said...
The Falkland Islands has offshore oil, it wasn't a useless piece of real estate.
- said...
Does the writer of this reporter believe in ghosts because he/she implies a very biased opinion about ghosts?
- said...
Can I make a point, in being Spiritualist? Ghosts are attracted to human energy. They make contact with us using it, and keep themselves energised using it. So, if you were a ghost, would you rather be in Antarctica (where not many people live), or a bustling city filled with people, such as Seattle or New York City? Really, ghosts don't aimlessly wander barren lands or graveyards.
- christaljorgensen said...
Great post! I love the pictures!
- slimshady said...
Leaving aside the J.L. Borges comment about the Falklands' War (and by NO MEANS supporting any kind -or any other- of armed conflict), I must say the notices of the early dead of the Antarctica have been greatly exaggerated. Argentina and Chile maintain a healthy population in several bases around the Antarctic Peninsula (a friend of mine spent two campaigns in one of them).
As for the use of the "wasteland" when referring to the Falklands, international jurisprudence dictates that the domains of a certain country extend up to 200 nautical miles over the Continental Platform, which gives Argentina sovereignty over them. The British Empire took them by force in 1833, has been exploiting the vast wealth of seafood which can be found there, and now is starting to extract the oil.
Again, the midnight madness started by General Galtieri during the Lead Years in my country (which led to several death Argentinian and British soldiers) must not be justified by no means. But the claims of the British stating the Malvinas Islands (the name we gave and still give to the Archipelago) belong to them are simple ridiculous and unfair. - said...
interested readers, check out Kim Stanley Robinson's "Antarctica,"
which features great discussions of Shackleton, Scott, as well as geographic details that will interest you. plus great characters! - tanburo said...
Behind the half-sunken Grytviken ships I believe we can see another ghost, the Lyubov Orlova..
- Dr. Mabuse said...
Scott, Wilson and Bowers died 11 miles from One Ton Depot. That was not their base camp; as the name indicates, it was a large cache of food and other supplies meant to be used by the men on their way back to camp. From there, they would have still had over 100 miles to get back to safety at Hut Point, and in their weakened condition, plus the Antarctic winter, it's unlikely they would have made it.

The boat in the last photo is the Bark Europa. It calls on all the South Georga stations once a year on the delivery from south America to south Africa. For more photos of Bark Europa go to barkeuropa.com

You TransGriot readers know how much I love Melissa Harris-Perry and her weekend MSNBC show, and was surprised and pleased to discover when I tuned into today's edition of the show that a Transgender in America segment was coming on and was even happier to hear that she was making a commitment to become a better cis ally to trans people.
But that faded when the panelists were announced because Ms. Harris-Perry and the Nerdland staff fell into the same old same old same old trap in terms of who was invited to talk about those issues. Once again we had the trans 1% situation of an all white trans panel and a white cis female guest Allison Kilkenny talking about trans issues
Arrgh. At least Mel Wymore, the transman they had on the panel (who is BTW running for New York's City council ) wasn't Chaz Bono. But as my Black, Latino and Asian transbrothers will probably say, they got erased just like Black, Latina and Asian trans women did in this panel along with our voices and perspectives on the issues affecting this community.
Same old same old bull feces. We transpeople of color take the brunt of the anti-trans violence and discrimination but rarely get the chance to expound on the issues in this community as we see them
Once again it's the white transpeeps getting the face time as the talking heads of the community, and that bull feces is getting old.. Once again a vanillacentric narrative was presented to Ms, Mr. and Mrs America that transpeople are middle class whites.
If you really want to be an ally to our trans community Prof. Harris-Perry, please use your show to broaden the conversation of trans issues (and GLBT ones for that matter) to include trans persons of color.

Riviera Stories, Section 1. Adam, One Afternoon; The Enchanted Garden; & A Goatherd at Luncheon Summary
"Adam, One Afternoon" is the story of a two youths enjoying nature and one another's company in a garden. Thirteen-year-old Maria-nunziata is washing dishes at her employer's house when the new garden boy beckons to her through the window, offering her a present. Fifteen-year-old Libereso introduces himself and convinces her to come outside, where he presents her with a toad. Libereso does not understand why she does not want the gift, so he tries giving her flies, worms, a lizard, and other creepy crawlers. Maria-nunziata is disconcerted when they find two frogs mating, and her new friend wants to give them to her. She is shocked to hear that Libereso is not Catholic, but instead is the child of...

a true story abount my first car
I was 14 in 1984 and I had been at a resturant for breakfast with my parents when I heard a guy talking to another guy about an old car he wanted to sell. I asked him about it and had no money but managed to trade my motorcycle for it and a parts car to go with it. Once we got the cars home I was use to the look of son your an idiot from my dad. I could see the car finished so clearly in my head. After school I came home turned on the radio and started working and with alot of help from my dad and I mean alot by early 1986 it was finished. I loved the car got my license and drove it constantly. lots of memories in that one. Like a dumb kid after a couple of years I guess I forgot what I had and traded it off for a car that I still can't believe I even considered. now this is where we start to skip some years, I saw it here and there and it really bothered me. I was a night security guard in 1995 when I spotted it in the parking lot where I worked, I nearly had the kid convinced to trade it back to me when his dad informed him it was to be sold not traded due to a divorce, I had a family by then and no money, what was funny is that I ended up with a pro street car, street rods, and many others as time moved on but I always wanted that car back. I would hang out with my friends and they would talk about this car and that car. I remember telling them one night I was going to find and buy that car back one day, we all say that dont we? now we skip ahead to 2002 I ended up doing ok my kids were older and I was in business for myself. I had just sold a truck a camper, and my motorcycle so I had a few dollars, then it hit me....my old car. I called the court house and asked the girl at the office to please look up the car, yes I still have the original license plate so that helps. She looked it up but was very limited on information so I called the clerks office in the county the car was in. They not only know how I am talking about they are friends with them, I talk them into giving me the phone number...I am on cloud nine now. I call and ask the lady if she owns that car and she replies, yes I do. I explain that I would like to buy it and she was very clear to me that it is not for sale at any price! wow what a let down. I sit there thinking, I finally could probably afford it and she is not at all interested in selling it, what should I do? I have the address so I get in the car and go to her house. I'm not giving up that easy. I later found out she was a little worried that I was nuts. I show up and introduce myself at which point she says I told you it is not for sale. I said I know but I would really like to see it again, now that was a dissappoinment she opened the basement door and there sat my old 1966 Impala conv in 3 inches of water where it had been sitting for the last 6 years or so, someone had painted it plum crazy purple and it wasn't a good job either. It was however the right car. To make what is an already very long story short I ended up buying it. over the years I have brought it back to much like it was back in the day, some things are better than back in the day. I am almost there and I get people stopping and asking about buying it or trading this and that and when they do I remember what the lady I got it from said. It's not for sale. Anyway sorry to go on for so long, hope so enjoy the story and to those I bore to death, sorry about that...lol have a great weekend.

I just had this happen with my expedition & it was the fuel pump, so of course this is my suspicion for this vehicle. Tank is 3/4 full.
What/how can I test for power to fuel pump. And spark?
What else can I check/do before I call to have it hauled off.
Luckily, when my truck it died it was at my brother in laws shop. Not so lucky this time(and all of 2 weeks aprt).
I have tried hitting the tank with a jack handle a few times to see if the fuel pump would kick on(assuming it was that) but that didnt work.
Where in the tank is the pump-so I get a closer shot.
have the same problem?

Hand Grip: Benefits and Buying Guide
A hand grip or hand gripper is a lever-type exercise tool for increasing grip strength. Although most people use this device to build muscles in their arms, athletes use this to improve grip strength which enhances their overall sports performance. This tool is very easy to use and is sold at a very affordable price, which makes it a favorite among athletes and fitness enthusiasts alike.
Below are some of the benefits of using hand grippers:
Increased Grip Strength
In almost any sport, good grip strength can positively complement ones basic training regimen and condition the muscles to improve overall performance. Hand grip exercises challenge your hand to increase the amount of force you can apply, which can really help you hold onto and effectively pass the ball in a basketball game, hitting a ball with a baseball bat, and even perfecting your swing when playing golf.
Outside the world of sports, many daily activities also require a good grip, like carrying heavy items, opening lids, holding on to the leash of your dog and grabbing on handle bars to support yourself as you get out of the tub or climb the stairs.
Increased Endurance
Once you learn how to exercise with hand grippers, you will find out that you can vary the amount of reps (how fast or slow) you can apply open and close the grips, which will improve your hand endurance. This can be very useful when you need to carry heavy luggage for extended periods.
Good hand endurance is also essential in weight training. Take for example doing a deadlift with a heavy barbell. If you have good grip strength, you will be able to easily lift the weight without fear of it slipping from your hands. It also eliminates the need to use wraps that sometimes affects the productivity of the workout.
Build Muscular Arms
Toned and muscular arms are not just good to look at, but they are also an indication that you have strong arms, which is a requirement in many sports. Wrestling, boxing, football, and weightlifting are just some of the sports that can benefit from having strong arms that can exert greater force when handling the ball, tackling opponents, or lifting heavy objects.
Better Dexterity
You can use the hand grips for exercising individual fingers too in order to improve dexterity. Having better control on the movement of each finger can be beneficial for sports like archery, basketball, and volleyball. Improved dexterity is useful for musicians in playing their instruments, for painters, and even typists.
Lower Blood Pressure
Several studies done on patients with high blood pressure have shown that doing hand grip workouts can lower the systolic blood pressure. One observation behind this is that it is probably because this type of exercise makes the carotid artery more flexible. The decreased rigidity of this artery allows better blood flow, thus the lowering of the blood pressure.
Considerations When Buying Hand Grippers
Here are some tips that will help you when shopping for your first hand grippers.
First, understand that there are two main types of grippers – the standard gripper and the adjustable type. The former has a fixed resistance, which means that you have to buy several pieces as you progress in your training. The latter, on the other hand, can be adjusted to increase the resistance, which can be a cost-effective choice since you only have to buy a single tool instead of buying several pieces.
Second, choose the right resistance. This can vary depending on your gender or any grip training that you may have previously had. Women, for instance, are recommended to start with the 100-lb gripper and then move up once your muscles adapt to the resistance. Men, usually start with the 150-lb or 200-lb hand grips. Some trainers recommend that you buy a complete set consisting of 5 grippers of varying resistance, but this can be difficult for people who are on a budget. Therefore, the best alternative is to buy one or two grippers and just add more as you progress in your training.
Third, look at the handle of the gripper. Choose a brand or model with smooth or cushioned handles for comfortable gripping. You certainly do not want any hard plastic digging into your palm while you do the grip exercises. You should also make sure that the material used in the handle is of good quality. Some cheap brands use brittle plastic that can break when pressure is applied. This can cause injury to your hand. Remember the golden rule in fitness – safety first.
A hand grip is a very simple device that is easy to use, yet provides a wide range of benefits not just in sports training but in daily activities and functions. The best part is that you can train your hands while you watch TV or reading a book. It is a "must" for all beginner athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

In light of the recent reports in The Houston Chronicle and Chicago Tribune that Texas may have executed three innocent persons (Carlos De Luna, Cameron Willingham and Ruben Cantu), we expect there will be an increase in support for a moratorium in the Texas Legislature because even the most ardent supporters of the death penalty are not in favor of executing innocent people. For now, let's take a look back at the level of support five years ago.
In 2001, there was a vote on a moratorium on executions on the floor of the Texas House of Representatives. The bill was HB 1328 by Rep Harold Dutton. 52 House members voted in favor of a moratorium back then, including one Republican. 91 voted "No" on the moratorium bill. 1 person was recorded as "present not voting" and there were six absent members. A couple of the Democrats who voted "No", probably did so on procedural grounds and were in fact in favor of a moratorium.
Among the current members of the House, there are 52 members (23 D's 29 R's) who were not members in 2001 and so have never voted on a moratorium.
There are 62 current members who were also members in 2001 and voted "No". There are 3 members who were members in 2001, but were absent or "present not voting" in 2001.
There are 33 current members (32 D's and 1 R) of the Texas Legislature who were also members in 2001 and who voted "yes" for the moratorium back then.
After the election this November, there will be some new members of the House and some of the current members will no longer be members.
Examine the data in a spreadsheet.

With all this talk and speculation going on about a possible attack on Iran before April I can't help but to feel discouraged, and dissapointed. I have always had a very strong faith in the Iranian people and a strong belief that we can and will over throw this regime. But now with a possible attack on Iran being a reality I no longer feel optimistic. Are we really going to sit back and watch our country be destroyed by foreign powers? This attack would be on Iran, not the Islamic Regime. In fact I really believe that any military attack on Iran would greatly benefit IRI rather then hurt them. I just hope something will give and something will happen before anything like that would happen. Looks like we do not have much time left.

12:18 AMA Better Approach: End the Mullahs Rule
By Kenneth Timmerman
Article first appeared in
FrontPageMagazine.com on January 18, 2007
For now, the nutty recommendation of the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group that the United States should engage in direct talks with Syria and Iran appears to have been mooted by events on the ground.
U.S. military forces have caught Iran red-handed – twice – over the past few weeks in Iraq, No one can possibly doubt any longer what I and many others have been saying for some time: that Iran is involved on the ground in Iraq and is aiding both Sunni and Shia insurgents in an effort to blow that country apart.
But like all bad ideas in Washington, rest assured that the Baker-Hamilton recommendation of direct talks will come back. Study group members can be counted upon to argue that the capture of top Iranian Revolutionary Guards and intelligence officials in Iraq only proves their point that Iran has real influence and thus must be dealt with directly, to prevent them from playing the spoiler's role.
And by the way, they will argue, what's the alternative? Nuke Iran?
It is regrettable and truly astonishing that President Bush has not applied to Iran and to Syria the same global vision he has so eloquently displayed in regards to Iraq and other fronts in the global war against the Islamic jihad. Because there is a clear alternative to the capitulation offered by Baker, Hamilton, and their advisors.
Instead of rewarding these regimes, the United States should use its tremendous resources to contain Syria and to undermine the legitimacy of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Such a policy is not far-fetched, nor is it based solely on ideology, although compelling moral arguments can be made in its favor. Instead, it serves the national and historic interests of the United States.
Syria is a weak and failing state, that survives largely because it goes unchallenged.
After the assassination in Feb. 2005 of Lebanese prime minister Rafik Hariri, the Lebanese people revolted against Syrian interference in their country. The brave and persistent demonstrations of the Cedars Revolution forced Syria to withdraw its forces from Lebanon. The failure of the United Nations and the international community to keep pressure on the Syrian regime encouraged Syria to creep back in through the back door.
The lessons just of these past two years are crystal clear: pressuring Syria works; acquiescing to Syria does not. And yet, the Baker-Hamilton group chooses acquiescence. When Syria sins, force Israel to make concessions, the ISG recommends. If there is logic here, it is not of the sort to make Americans proud.
Instead, the United States should make the Syrian regime understand that it will pay a real price for its transgressions. Serious economic sanctions on Syria for its continued support of Hezbollah, in defiance of UN Security Council resolution 1701, would have a devastating impact on the minority Alouite regime. And targeted military strikes on Syrian border outposts and military units caught red-handed aiding Iraqi insurgents would send a clear warning to Syria's military leaders. If Syria did not get the message, the United States could step up the pressure by targeted air strikes on Damascus safehouses where Iraqi insurgent leaders continue to hide.
Syria has always backed down when challenged. If Mr. Baker were truly the "realist" he claims to be, he would acknowledge this and propose policies accordingly.
The Islamic Republic of Iran, however, is made of different stuff. This is a regime that over the past twenty-seven years has been willing to pay a tremendously high price in blood and treasure to pursue its radical policies. Since the 1979 revolution, the United States has repeatedly attempted to "influence the behavior" of the regime, without success.
As I wrote in these pages just last month, the Baker-Hamilton proposal is a warmed rehash of the same failed policy we've been trying since 1979.
There is only one approach that will get the attention of the Tehran's revolutionary and clerical leaders; and this is the one approach that Baker and Hamilton – and the foreign policy Establishment - have rejected: support for regime change.
This is the one approach that the United States and its allies have never tried. Short of an all-out U.S. military assault on Iran, it is the only approach that can avoid a future Persian Gulf region dominated by a radical Iranian regime armed with nuclear weapons. Saying pretty-please, as the Baker-Hamilton group proposed, just isn't going to work.
Empowering Iranians to change their regime will be costly. From having worked with opponents to the Iranian regime over the past twenty years, and studied the requirements of opposition groups currently working inside Iran, I believe the United States should be prepared to commit a minimum of $300 million over an initial six month period if we are to have any hope of a successful outcome.
The very first step must be the appointment by the President of a Special Envoy for Iran, with full presidential authority to convene a loya jirga type meeting of several hundred prominent Iranian leaders. The majority of those able to attend such a meeting will of necessity come from the diaspora; some will come secretly from the inside.
That meeting should focus on establishing a broad declaration of principles around which the various opposition factions can unite, and then electing an executive committee that will include authorized spokespersons for the pro-freedom movement. (Much of the ground work for such a broad meeting of Iranians has already been accomplished over the past two years, thanks to the Iranians themselves).
Over the next six months, the following tasks must be accomplished:
> Drafting a detailed game plane for organizing massive non-violent protests against the regime in Tehran. This game plan must include strategies for neutralizing the Revolutionary Guards, the bassij corps, and paramilitary gangs loyal to extremists in the current regime, and for preventing the Islamic-Marxist Mujahedin Khalq, which worked with the regime during the early years of the revolution, from exploiting the situation and seizing power in a putsch. It must also include a strategy for providing financial support to striking workers and professionals;
> Specific policy recommendations for the United States and our allies, so we can best leverage tools available to governments and international organizations for delegitimizing and destabilizing the Tehran regime. (The U.S. Department of the Treasury has made a modest start here).
> Identify, contact, and train key operations officers on the ground in Iran;
> Identify and pre-position secure communications and other equipment needed to coordinate operations inside Iran; and
> Establish a finance committee tasked with harnessing the tremendous resources of the Iranian diaspora, who have withheld major support to the pro-freedom movement because they rightly judged that the movement lacked U.S. support. Broadcasting must be an integral part of any comprehensive political plan to challenge the legitimacy of the Iranian regime and promote non-violent regime change. However, none of the $300 million fund should go to expanding the Persian language service of Voice of America or Radio Farda, the Persian service of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Both have failed utterly to live up to the goal for which they were established.
Rather than communicate an American viewpoint during Iran's proxy war against Israel this past summer, for example, VOA television sent reporters to Beirut to interview top Hezbollah leaders – the same Hezbollah leaders Iranian state television was treating as rock stars.
As for Radio Farda ("Tomorrow"), established to be a "surrogate" for the free media Iranians could not access inside their own country, it became a laughing stock by championing Iran's failed reformist president, Mohammad Khatami.
Since Ahmadinejad took over as president in 2005, Radio Farda has adopted the "music-first" model of Westwood One and become simply irrelevant. Both are a waste of U.S. taxpayer dollars and should be downsized or eliminated altogether.
Instead, funding should be provided to private Iranian broadcasters who understand the political thirst of their compatriots and know how to package a compelling message in a professional format. The allotment of the broadcasting budget should be determined by the Executive Committee, with a preference to pluralism and professionalism.
The U.S. intelligence community can play a support role in this effort, but should not take the lead. The last thing we need is to ask the Central Intelligence Agency to organize the Iranian opposition.
On the contrary, much of this program can – and must – be accomplished overtly. Having the President of the United States openly support the aspirations of the Iranian people, at the same time devoting $300 million to back the effort, will have a tremendous impact on pro-democracy forces inside Iran, without yet putting lives at risk.
At the end of the initial six month period, the President can then decide if he believes the program is viable. If so, he can pull the trigger on the plan devised by the pro-freedom groups in coordination with his Special Envoy. The U.S. will need to commit another $500 million or so to the effort of organizing and supporting the massive non-violent protest movement throughout Iran. This will be supplemented by another $500 million or more raised from the Iranian diaspora.
This is expensive, for sure. But it is far less costly than the alternatives of facing a nuclear-armed Iran, or having to send in U.S. troops to prevent Iran from deploying or firing nuclear weapons.
The Baker-Hamilton approach of engaging the terror-masters brings great risks and few rewards. It sends a clear message that terrorism, even conducted against the world's sole superpower, is a strategy that works. Engagement with Iran and Syria will foster more terror, not curtail it.
Furthermore, engaging regimes that systematically repress their own people and seek to destroy a bold democratic experiment on their borders, sends a clear message to pro-democracy forces inside those countries that their efforts can never succeed.
In one simple stroke, the Baker-Hamilton approach will have emboldened our enemies, and deterred our potential allies. And yet, for reasons that only the chattering classes can explain, this goes by the name "realism."
Supporting regime change by Iranians, while containing Syria, not only makes the best strategic sense for America. It is the right thing to do.

Microsoft Investing In "Open Source" Lab In Philippines 95
jaromil writes "Following up its cozying up to OSCON, now Microsoft is launching its first 'open source' lab in the Philippines, paying for a huge media coverage. From the press release it seems they are also advertising the issue of 'interoperability' to outnumber one of the strongest features of open source in Asia: recycling old computers. Any suggestions for good stories about MS interoperability so far? :)"

Endogenous Indoctrination: Occupational Choice, the Evolution of Beliefs, and the Political Economy of Reform
Much of the political economy analysis of reform focuses on the conflict of interest between groups that stand to gain or lose from the competing policy proposals. In reality, there is also a lot of disagreement about the working of the policy: in addition to conflicting interests, conflicting views play an important role. Those views are shaped in part by an educational bureaucracy. It is documented that the beliefs of that bureaucracy differ substantially from those of the broader constituency. I analyse a model where this effect originates in the self-selection of workers in the educational occupation, and is partly reinforced by the insulation of the educational profession from the real economy (an effect which had been discussed by Hayek). The bias makes it harder for the population to learn the true parameters of the economy if these are favourable to the market economy. Two parameters that govern this capacity to learn are social entropy and heritability. Social entropy defines how predictable one's occupation is as a function of one's beliefs. Heritability is the weight of the family's beliefs in the determination of the priors of a new generation. Both heritability and social entropy reduce the bias and makes it easier to learn that the market economy is "good", under the assumption that it is. Finally I argue that the capacity to learn from experience is itself affected by economic institutions. A society which does not trust markets is more likely to favour labour market rigidities that in turn reduces the exposure of individuals to the market economy, and thus their ability to learn from experience. This in turn reinforces the weight of the educational system in the formation of beliefs, thus validating the initial presumption against the market economy. This sustains an equilibrium where beliefs and institutions reinforce each other in slowing or preventing people from learning the correct underlying parameters.

My roommate and I have had some of the best times together this semester. In January, we went to the Statue of Liberty with our other friend, Christi Frost. We then went to my house to spend the weekend. At school, it's awesome that we are roommates, especially when we have a test in one of our classes. We can just study in our room together. The same goes for group projects that we have together. And for division work, we are already together, so it is easy for our work to get done! But it's not all work in this room! We are both absolutely obsessed with Frozen! Almost every night, right before bed, we listen to the Frozen soundtrack! We both know basically all the words! Much to the surprise of both of us, being roommates has been an awesome time and has truly worked out in our favor.
I believe that it is truly valuable that we switch rooms and roommates every semester here at the Academy. It teaches us how to deal with others in close quarters. It prepares us for the fleet when we may be stuck on a boat with only 100 other people for months at a time. It is a truly valuable lesson.

Although there is no shortage of Bush administraton shenanigans on which to report, your blogstress finds it impossible to do in the wake of Katrina's gruesome destruction of the birthplace of jazz.
Jazz is not just a form of music, it's a kind of people--of which the people of New Orleans are the progenitor. People descended from a blend of Yoruban Africans and American Indians--with a dash of French European--gave us our national classical music, however neglected and unappreciated by its nation it may be.
Today those people are drowning in the neglect of a government that looked away from their imminent doom, just as it has turned its back on nurturing the art form their ancestors gave us.
Shame on us--all of us. And let the dirge begin.

Un Verre de Vin?
Wiliam Sokolin
A glass of wine can be the greatest treat in certain moments, it can be the perfect match to sitting by the fireplace on a cold night, to reading a good book, to browsing thru pictures that remind you of a great holiday, to having a lovely chat with dear ones, to enjoying a well deserved, delicious meal, to dreaming away and relaxing after an exhausting day and so many, many more...
How does your perfect wine delight moment look like?

Universal Pictures Acquires Sci-Fi Flick 'Sagittarius A'
- By
- 6 Comments
Writer/producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci have consistently worked together for well over a decade, going all the way back to Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Since then, the two friends have become full-fledged Hollywood movers and shakers, having helped shape such movies as Transformers, Star Trek, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and the upcoming All You Need Is Kill.
Though the duo is known largely for dabbling in adaptations of previously established properties and sequels, they're also no strangers to completely novel works. One such project – a pitch for a science fiction film known as Sagittarius A – has apparently piqued the interest of Universal Pictures.
Deadline reports that Universal Pictures has acquired the rights to produce a film based on the pitch for Sagittarius A. Though Orci and Kurtzman developed the background and relevant details for the pitch, the actual script for the movie will be penned by Steven Karczynski, a largely untested screenwriter. Karczynski has previously been noted as the writer of The Umbra, a thriller that has appeared on the Black List of best unproduced scripts.
Nothing is currently known about the exact content of the proposed movie. That said, "Sagittarius A" is a real term for an interesting astronomic feature located near the center of the Milky Way galaxy. An area of bright matter and strong natural radio signals, Sagittarius A is thought to contain a supermassive black hole of stunning size and power.
Sagittarius A joins a field of upcoming original science fiction films that show quite a bit of promise. These include Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, Wally Pfister's Transcendence, and Neil Blomkamp's Elysium. This abundance of new and interesting properties seems to directly contradict the common wisdom that Hollywood filmmaking has degenerated into an endless slog of sequels and remakes.
While Karczynski will be responsible for the nuts and bolts of Sagittarius A's script, the film's background with Orci and Kurtzman may give many pause. The writing duo have had their names on a good number of hits, but have also put out some questionable scripts throughout their career. Critics of the duo need only point to the less-than-stellar dialogue and plotting of the Transformers films to cast doubt on Kurtzman and Orci's output. Whether some of the bad habits of their scripts trickle into a project they only developed is yet to be seen.
For the moment, Sagittarius A will have to remain intriguing but unknowable. Will the movie be a hard science fiction meditation on space travel? A disaster movie based around the idea of a black hole nearing Earth? A space opera that blazes through the center of the galaxy? Keep your eyes on the stars – and more realistically, on Screen Rant – as the film develops and we learn more.
Sagittarius A has no planned release date.
