Another record-breaking year for Erasmus
The latest Erasmus statistics released by the European Commission today reveal that nearly 270 000 students - a new record - benefitted from EU grants to study or train abroad in 2012-2013. While studying at another university continues to be the most popular choice, one in five students (55 000) opted for Erasmus job placements in companies. The three most popular destinations for Erasmus students in 2012-2013 were Spain, Germany and France. Countries sending the highest number of students as a proportion of their graduate population were Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Finland, Latvia and Spain.
"For 27 years, Erasmus has enabled students to spend time abroad to broaden their horizons and improve their skills. The latest figures show that Erasmus is more popular than ever. As well as contributing to a sense of belonging to the European family, the skills which Erasmus promotes also help students to boost their employability and career prospects. Our new Erasmus+ programme will enable even more young people to study, train, work or volunteer abroad in the next seven years," said Androulla Vassiliou, European Commissioner for Education, Culture, Multilingualism and Youth.
The statistics show that the average Erasmus grant, designed to cover part of the costs of living abroad and travel, was €272 per month, a 9% increase on the previous year (€250). The grant is topped up in some countries by national, regional or institutional funds.
Erasmus is not just an exchange scheme for students: in 2012-2013 more than 52 600 academic and administrative staff received funding from Erasmus to teach or train abroad. The experience they gain not only benefits the individual concerned but also the quality of teaching and learning at their home institution when they return. Some 500 staff from businesses - an increase of more than 20% from the previous year – also received Erasmus support to teach at higher education institutions abroad, highlighting the growing interest in aligning education and training to the needs of the labour market.
The new Erasmus+ programme will provide grants for 4 million people, including 2 million higher education students and 300 000 staff over the next seven years (2014-2020). It will also fund 135 000 student and staff exchanges between Europe and partner countries worldwide. The expanded programme, which includes Erasmus and similar mobility schemes for other groups including apprentices and volunteers, puts more emphasis on linguistic support, more flexible rules for grants, as well as specific additional support for people with special needs, from disadvantaged backgrounds and remote areas.
The Commission's strategy on the modernisation of higher education (IP/11/1043) highlighted the need to provide more opportunities for students to gain skills through study or training abroad. The EU target for overall student mobility is at least 20% by the end of the decade. Currently, around 10% of EU students study or train abroad with the support of Erasmus or other public and private means. Around 5% receive an Erasmus grant.
Erasmus was previously part of the Lifelong Learning Programme (2007-2013). 33 countries participated in the scheme: EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey.
Erasmus+, the new programme for education, training, youth and sport, was launched in January 2014. It has a total budget of nearly €15 billion for 2014-2020, a 40% increase compared with the previous period.

August 12, 2007 was the day of the Burton New Zealand Open halfpipe finals. After being delayed one day due to bad weather most the day was sunshine, until it came time for the last runs in both the men's and women's finals. A storm moved in causing flat light conditions, and blowing snow. The riders decided to continue on and deal with it, some still going for it, others taking it easy due to the sketchy conditions.
The girls riding in this event was top notch. Some girls runs consisting of multiple back-to-back spins. Sevens were a trick of standard and done with amplitude and style. Soko Yamaoka was a standout of the day but fell short of the podium. Torah Bright took first place with technical and bold runs. Kelly Clark came in a close second place with high amplitude first hits. And the smooth style riding of Swiss rider Manuela Laura Pesko grabbed the third spot on the podium.
The men's finals were witness to some very impressive riding. The Swiss and Japanese were out in strength, but it was the focus and persistence of a kiwi rider that took the bacon. Mitch Brown waited until the last run and as if it was destiny the sun came out to light his run and he took full advantage of it stomping everything gracefully with lots of amplitude, it was the type of run that after watching it was clear he won before it was even announced. Joining Mitch on the podium was Scotty Lago in second place, and Ryo Aono from Japan in third.
Women's top five:
1. Torah Bright, Australia
2. Kelly Clark, USA
3. Manuela Laura Pesko, Switzerland
4. Sarah Conrad, Canada
5. Soko Yamaoka, Japan
Men's top five:
1. Mitch Brown, New Zealand
2. Scotty Lago, USA
3. Ryo Aono, Japan
4. Murakami Daisuke, Japan
5. Justin Lamoureux, Canada

MIDDLETOWN, R.I. - Salve Regina sophomore Phil Terio (Trumbull, Conn.) intercepted a pass at his own seven yard line with just 15 seconds remaining to seal a thrilling 37-33 victory over visiting Curry College during New England Football Conference (NEFC) Boyd Division action at Gaudet Field on Saturday afternoon. The win extends the Seahawks' winning streak to 13 straight victories, marking the longest winning streak in all of Division III and the second longest in all of NCAA football, trailing only Harvard. Salve Regina improves to a perfect 7-0 on the year and 4-0 in the division, while the Colonels slip to 3-4 overall and 2-2 during Boyd Division play.
Terio had seven tackles, two pass breakups, an interception, and a 93-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, marking his sixth score of the season. The Salve Regina offense totaled 478 yards, receiving a game-high 86 yards on the ground by sophomore Dan Buonocore(Mahwah, N.J.), while classmate Khari Halliburton (Manchester, N.H.) chipped in with 81 rushing yards of his own. Sophomores Matthew Traynor (Secaucus, N.J.) and Alex Hennessy (West Babylon, N.Y.) each had four recptions for the Seahawks, while seniorTrey Scales (Boston, Mass.) reeled-in two receptions for 41 yards and a touchdown. Quarterback Steven Wilken (Ringwood, N.J.) finished the day 14-of-28 for 220 yards and one score.
In addition to Terio, the Salve Regina defense was led by senior Anthony Hannon (Orange, Calif.) who had a team-high 12 tackles, while sophomore Matt Conroy (Philadelphia, Pa.)made several big plays including an interception. Senior Greg Gosselin (Kingston, Mass.)and sophomore Rory McEntee (Wakefiled, R.I.) both recorded solo sacks in the win.
The Colonels were led by senior wide receiver Rob Bambini (Westwood, Mass.) who led all players with 13 catches, 192 receiving yards, and a pair of touchdown grabs, while junior Skubie Mageza (Revere, Mass.) finished with seven receptions for 67 yards and a score. Junior quarterback Kevin Fruwirth (Agawam, Mass.) completed 29-of-59 passes for 330 yards and three scores, but also threw three interceptions in the loss. The Colonels' ground game was paced by sophomore Jordan Shairs (Gloucester, Mass.) who had eight carries for 74 yards and a touchdown.
On defense, senior Jason Genece (Waltham, Mass.) recorded a team-best 12 tackles, while junior Sam Calley (Weymouth, Mass.) had 10 tackles and a sack. Junior Timothy O'Brien (East Sandwich, Mass.) made 2.5 tackles for a loss, while junior Nick Calvano (Norfolk, Mass.) recorded five tackles and returned an interception 20 yards for a touchdown.
Off the opening kick, the Seahawks drove right down the field, picking up big chunks of yards on the ground to advance to the Curry 34 yard line.
However, the drive was haulted when the Colonels recovered a fumble on a muffed handoff, giving Curry the ball on their own 35.
After consecutive three-and-outs by both offenses, the Colonels took over at their own 41 and quickly went 59 yards on just two plays, including a 49-yard tuchdown pass to Bambini. SRU's Hayden Stanton (Wallingford, Conn.) blocked the ensuing extra point to keep the Curry lead at 6-0.
The Seahawks wasted no time in responding, as Terio returned the following kickoff 97 yards for the score to put the Seahawks on top, 7-6.
After senior Ryan Mannion (Danbury, Conn.) ended Curry's next drive with an interception at the Curry 34, the Seahawks received a 19-yard field goal by freshman Christian Clark(Williamsport, Pa.) to extend the lead to 10-6.
When the Seahawks defense held the Colonels to another three-and-out on their next possession, Salve Regina appeared poised to give themselves some breathing room. However, Calvano picked-off a third down screen pass and returned it 20 yards for the score to reclaim the lead for the Colonels. After Stanton blocked his second consecutive point after attempt, the Curry lead stood at 12-10.
The Curry defense forced the Seahawks to punt on their next possession, but when the punt glanced off the leg of the Colonels' return man, Salve Regina recovered the loose ball to set up their offense at the Curry 26. The Seahawks reponded with four consecutive runs, capped by an eight-yard scoring dash by Buonocore on the very first play of the second quarter to grab the lead, 17-12.
After several scoreless drives by both teams, the Seahawks were back in action when Conroy picked-off a pass at the Curry 30 yard line. Salve Regina took advantage of the turnover six plays later as Wilken hooked-up with Scales for a 16-yard touchdown pass, extending the SRU lead to 24-12.
It appeared that would be the halftime score when the Seahawks seemingly stopped Shairs short of a first down with under a minute to go in the second quarter. However, Shairs managed to stay on his feet while breaking several tackles and rumbling 17 yards for a first down. The Colonels found the endzone three plays later, receving a 38-yard grab by Mageza and a 13-yard touchdown reception by Bambini with just 17 seconds left in the half to send the two teams into the lockeroom with the Seahawks holding a 24-19 advantage.
The Colonels stormed out of the locker room to go 56 yards on just six plays on the opening possession of the third quarter, receiving a 13-yard touchdown run by Shairs to once again reclaim the lead, 26-24.
The back-and-forth battle continued as the Seahawks responded with a seven-play, 74-yard touchdown drive on their ensuing possession, including a 30-yard scamper by Wilken and a 13-yard touchdown run by senior Connor Kelly (Milford, Conn.) to snatch the lead back, 31-24.
On the following possession, the Colonels faced a fourth-and-10 from the SRU-33. Electing to go for it, Fruwirth found Bambini over the middle for a 32-yard gain down to the goal line. Fruwirth hooked-up with Mageza on the very next play, hitting the wide reciver by the pylon for the one-yard score to claim a 33-31 lead for the Colonels.
The Seahawks also faced a fourth-down situation on their next possession, looking at fourth-and-two from the Curry 47. Salve Regina brought out the punt team but ran a fake, however the Colonels were not fooled. Curry didn't even put a returner back on the play, stuffing the fake to take over possession on their own 47.
After driving to the Salve 42, a tough fourth-down decision once again presented itself, as the Colonels faced fourth-and-eight. After calling a time out to draw up a play, Fruwirth connected with a wide open Bambini on the sidelines, however, the Curry wide receiver went out just shy of the first down marker, turning the ball over on downs.
The Seahawks responded with a nine-play, 48-yard drive which took the two teams into the fourth quarter and ended in a missed 36-yard field goal that sailed just wide right.
After the Seahawk defense held on the following possession, Salve Regina put together their best drive of the day, going 84-yards on 11 plays for what turned out to be the game-winning touchdown. Sophomore Kenneth Woods (Walpole, Mass.) capped the drive with a two-yard touchdown run, and after the two-point conversion failed, the Seahawks led 37-33.
The Colonels had one last chance when they took over possession at their own 42 with just 3:13 remaining in the final quarter. The Colonels converted three third-down plays to drive down to the Salve 12 yard line with under 20 seconds remaining. That's when Terio picked off a second-and-10 pass at the seven yard line to seal the exciting 37-33 victory for the Seahawks.
The Colonels will return to action next Saturday when they host Nichols at 1 p.m., while the Seahawks hit the road to face MIT on Friday in a 7 p.m. contest.

TedxAthens 2012. My Experience
Yesterday I returned from Athens. I was there since Friday morning. The reason I went to Athens this time was because I wanted to attend the TedxAthens 2012 event. I had booked my ticket one month ago and I really looked forward to experiencing it first hand. So, as you have already understood, this is TedxAthens through my eyes. In other words, it is a description of the event from the time I arrived at the "Warm Up" event on Friday night up until I left from the main event on Saturday night but from a completely personal perspective.

What a difference a week makes.
All but left for dead after a home-ice loss to the New York Islanders on Valentine's Day, the Jets have rattled off four wins in five games–and collected nine of a possible 10 points–and now find themselves atop the Southeast Division standings through 63 games.
The Jets looked like a team on a mission last night, dominating the Lightning for 55 minutes before giving up some late goals in garbage time en route to a 4-3 win.
A big reason for the turnaround has been goal production. The team's once hapless offence has ignited, scoring at least four goals in all five games.The power play has been a key cog, and had converted on seven straight man-advantage opportunities before failing to convert on a late third-period chance last night.
The Jets now sit third–at least temporarily–in the Eastern Conference standings by virtue of their one-point lead over the Florida Panthers in the Southeast. Games in hand notwithstanding (and it does seem like everyone has a leg up on the Jets in that department), they sport a 30-26-7 record , good for 67 points, and still have four more games on this homestand to enjoy. The "P" word most certainly is a reality at this point, and that's not just from a subjective fans' perspective. SportsClubStats now suggests the Jets have a 38.2 per cent chance of making it into the dance. Still anything but a sure thing, but much improved from the less than 12 per cent odds they were facing a week ago.
Scoring by committee is a mantra the Jets have to live by to be successful, and they've been doing just that, even getting a goal from Tanner Glass in last night's win.
The Ladd-Little-Wheeler unit, the one line that came highly regarded after their late season success in Atlanta last year, was slow out of the gates but has caught far at the right time. Ladd has five goals in four games, Little has seven points during that stretch, and Blake Wheeler has a goal and 10 assists in his last five. The second unit has been good, too. Evander Kane has heated up alongside Burmistrov and Wellwood, tallying four goals and four assists over the last five, while Dustin Byfuglien has been the straw that stirs the drink from the back-end with 13 points in his last eight.
Sure, in a perfect world they'd like to upgrade the fourth line right wing position, as neither Miettinen or Fehr has proven worthy of a regular spot in the lineup–the pair has combined for just one goal in 60 games.
But the defense core is as solid as they come with depth to sustain them through injuries, while the goaltending has been stellar no matter which of the Jets' tenders suits up. This team is good enough to squeak into the top eight, especially with others around them self-destructing. The Leafs have issues and the Capitals can't seem to figure it out.
You wanna talk about playoffs!? Yes, as a matter of fact I do.

Thompson Square Begin Work on Energy-Packed New Album
Thompson Square is having a banner year. The husband-wife duo made up of Shawna and Keifer Thompson has been criss-crossing the country, opening sold-out shows for Lady Antebellum's Own the Night World Tour. And on Saturday night (April 1) they scored an upset victory over Sugarland when they were named Vocal Duo of the Year a day prior to the 2012 ACM Awards. In light of all this success, the duo has decided not to stop now: They're currently in the early stages of creating their sophomore album.
Of course, it's not easy to find time to write and record when you're basically living out of a tour bus. The jam-packed Lady A tour, coupled with the devastating loss of Shawna's father, has kept country's newest sensation emotionally and physically exhausted. But that hasn't stopped them from creating a new album with even more energy than the first.
"We're writing, and we're recording a lot of demo vocals right here on this very bus," said Keifer in a recent interview with the Boot. "It's going great. This record will be better than the first one, I can tell you that."
Shawna added that this new record will be fun and upbeat, which she attributes to the couples' experience rocking out on stage with Lady A this year. After all, you can't command a sold-out stadium without putting on an energetic performance.
Unfortunately, Thompson Square fans shouldn't hold their breath in anticipation of getting the new album in hand. The dynamic duo says their first single won't hit until January 2013, and the new album won't be available until at least April 2013. In the mean time, you can get your Thompson Square fix if one of the Own the Night World Tour shows comes to a city near you.

zh-TW:Dokuwiki "DokuWiki is a standards-compliant, simple-to-use wiki which allows users to create rich documentation repositories. It provides an environment for individuals, teams and companies to create and collaborate using a simple yet powerful syntax that ensures data files remain structured and readable outside the wiki."
"Unlimited page revisions allows restoration to any earlier page version, and with data stored in plain text files, no database is required. A powerful plugin architecture allows for extension and enhancement of the core system. See the features section for a full description of what DokuWiki has to offer."[1]
In other words, DokuWiki is a wiki written in PHP and requires no database.
Like to see a running example?
Initial Notes
DokuWiki should work on any web server which supports PHP 5.1.2 or later. As the requirements may change over time, you should consult the requirements page for DokuWiki for additional details.
It is strongly recommend to read through the appropriate sections of DokuWiki's security page for your web server. Most popular web servers are covered but there are generic instructions as well.
The package in [community] unpacks DokuWiki at
/srv/http/dokuwiki and changes ownership to the "http" user. This should work fine for most popular web servers as packaged for Arch.
- Install your web server of choice (e.g. Apache or lighttpd) and configure it for PHP. As mentioned above, DokuWiki has no need for a database server so you may be able to skip those steps when setting up your web server.
- Install dokuwiki from [community] with pacman.
- Configure web server for dokuwiki (see section below)
- With your web browser of choice, open http://<your-server>/dokuwiki/install.php and continue the installation from there.
Alternatively, if you would like to install from tarball, you can read from http://www.dokuwiki.org/Install. Generally the procedure is the same as above. Instead of using pacman, you will need to download the tarball, unpack it to your server's document root (e.g.
/srv/http/dokuwiki), and chown to the appropriate user (e.g. "http").
Firstly, create the file
/etc/httpd/conf/extra/dokuwiki.conf with the following contents:
Alias /dokuwiki /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki <Directory /usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki/> Options +FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All order allow,deny allow from all php_admin_value open_basedir "/srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/webapps/:/etc/webapps/dokuwiki/:/var/lib/dokuwiki/" </Directory>
Include the newly created file in the Apache configuration by placing the following line at the end of
Include conf/extra/dokuwiki.conf
Make sure the folders
/etc/webapps/dokuwiki and
/var/lib/dokuwiki are owned by user and group "http". You may relocate these directories if you like as long as you update the references in
/etc/httpd/conf/extra/dokuwiki.conf respectively.
Afterwards restart Apache:
# systemctl restart httpd.service
Then finish the installation by running the dokuwiki/install.php script in your browser.
lighttpd Specific Configuration
Edit the
/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf file as per the dokuwiki instructions (might contain updated information).
Under the line:
$HTTP["url"] =~ "\.pdf$" { server.range-requests = "disable" }
add this:
# subdir of dokuwiki # comprised of the subdir of the root dir where dokuwiki is installed # in this case the root dir is the basedir plus /htdocs/ # Note: be careful with trailing slashes when uniting strings. # all content on this example server is served from htdocs/ up. #var.dokudir = var.basedir + "/dokuwiki" var.dokudir = server.document-root + "/dokuwiki" # make sure those are always served through fastcgi and never as static files # deny access completly to these $HTTP["url"] =~ "/\.ht" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) } $HTTP["url"] =~ "/_ht" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) } $HTTP["url"] =~ "^" + var.dokudir + "/bin/" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) } $HTTP["url"] =~ "^" + var.dokudir + "/data/" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) } $HTTP["url"] =~ "^" + var.dokudir + "/inc/" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) } $HTTP["url"] =~ "^" + var.dokudir + "/conf/" { url.access-deny = ( "" ) }
These entries give some basic security to DokuWiki. lighttpd does not use .htaccess files like Apache. You CAN install with out this, but I would NEVER recommend it.
Add alias somewhere in lighttpd or fastcgi conf file:
alias.url += ("/dokuwiki" => "/usr/share/webapps/dokuwiki/")
Then, adjust the
open_basedir in
/etc/php/php.ini to include the dokuwiki directories (php forbids following symbolic links outside of the allowed scope):
open_basedir = /srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/webapps/:/etc/webapps/dokuwiki/:/var/lib/dokuwiki/
Restart lighttp:
# systemctl restart lighttpd
Post Installation
Cleaning Up
After configuring the server remove the install.php file!
# rm /srv/http/dokuwiki/install.php
Installing Plugins
Many community created plugins can be found here
They can be added through the web interface (as well as updated) through the Admin menu. Some plugins cannot be downloaded, if they go over ssl (e.g. git). Uncomment following line in
Backing Up
It is very trivial to backup DokuWiki, since there is no database. All pages are in plain text, and require only a simple tar, or rsync.
A quick breakdown of the directories of interest in the current (2008-05-05) version:
/dokuwiki/data/ => All User Created Data /dokuwiki/lib/plugins/ => All User Added Plugins
Further Reading
The DokuWiki main site has all of the information and help that you could possibly need.

Federal Emergency Management Agency and Fremont County are responding to owners' requests for demolition of 14 homes in the Percival, Iowa, area that were destroyed or severely damaged by Missouri River flooding in 2011.
Disaster assistance programs through the Federal Emergency Management Agency and Fremont County are providing for first-round demolition of 14 homes in the Percival area.
Mike Crecelius of Fremont County Emergency Management said a total of 34 residences in the county will be demolished through Fema's sheltering program.
The first round includes 14 houses that contained or may have contained asbestos.
The homes include three in the village of Percival, three near the Sapp Brothers Truck stop at Highway 2 and two west of the village.
Kay and Larry Suiter were on hand Wednesday as crews demolished their house, a trailer and a neighboring house.
Larry Suiter said flood water rushed down the ditch on the east side of the Percival Community Church after a breach in the flood levy on June 30, 2011.
A frame house and trailer at his residence and the neighboring house were on the path of the initial flood surge in town and were eventually under four feet of water.
Kay's great-grandparents bought the single-story frame house for Kay's grandmother Ruby Stewart in the 1930s. Her parents, John and Naomi Rogers, established the trailer on the lot in 1973.
The Suiters moved to Wisconsin after the flood evacuation and plan to stay there.
Kelly Demolition of Mt. Vernon, Iowa, is contracted for the demolitions. Fema pays up to 85 percent of the demolition costs and the county pays up to 15 percent.
Crecelius said all of the houses were listed on the preliminary damage assessment as being destroyed or sustaining major damage.
Property owners received letters from Fema explaining that demolition could be paid for through the sheltering program's 403 section. Property owners were asked to register property, if they wanted assistance with demolition.

Harry Belafonte — a man who's given us great music, a man who put himself on the line during the civil rights era — is one of a number of celebrities to have spent the last several years shilling for the ruthless Venezuelan autocrat Hugo Chavez.
Supporters of Chavez often argue indignantly that the man is no dictator, that he was democratically elected. But look around the world and it's easy to see: being democratically elected does not mean governing democratically. According to Human Rights Watch, "[T]he [Chavez] government has systematically undermined free expression, workers' freedom of association, and the ability of human rights groups to function." HRW's full 2012 report on Venezuela is here, and it's grim.
Chavez is also a proud ally of the virulently antisemitic Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He's given vocal and even material support to the Assad regime throughout its ongoing slaughter of Syrian civilians.
If any of this disturbs Harry Belafonte, or fellow Chavez dupes such as Sean Penn and Medea Benjamin of Code Pink, they've yet to indicate it. And yet now, in 2012, we have Belafonte declaring that U.S. capitalism "is taking us to the doorstep of [a] Fourth Reich, I think." A Fourth Reich.
Chavez runs Venezuela into the ground and backs some of the most heinous regimes in the world, and Belafonte gives him a free pass, even a big thumbs-up. "Viva la revolucion!" But oh, that Obama – better hold that man's feet to the fire. Better call him out. No criticism is too harsh. Compare the U.S. to Nazi Germany? Why not.
Sorry, but when it comes to democratic advocacy, Belafonte's credentials are in tatters. Not Obama's.

The Future of Netbooks Dell Mini Inspiron 10 | TechyPunkyby 1 other (via)
Hot on the heels of the Dell Mini Inspiron 9 is the predictably named Dell Mini Inspiron 10. You guesses it, this notebook has a ten-inch screen, but does it score a perfect ten? With the addition of built-in GPS. 3G, and a digital television tuner, we'd normally be pulling out our wallets by now. But with the scarcity of decent local maps and the archaic television systems in place, we foresee a vastly different Mini Inspiron 10 to appear locally - if it does at all. Price: $799 at Dell

Jody just shared this with me…
Shut down day – March 24, 2007 – http://www.shutdownday.org/
"It is obvious that people would find life extremely difficult without computers, maybe even impossible. If they disappeared for just one day, would we be able to cope?
Be a part of one of the biggest global experiments ever to take place on the internet. The idea behind the experiment is to find out how many people can go without a computer for one whole day, and what will happen if we all participate!
Shutdown your computer on this day and find out! Can you survive for 24 hours without your computer?"
What an interesting (and scary, at least to me) experiment. Anyone going to do it? Jody and I will probably give it a go. It's a great way to insure we spend a full day of family togetherness, and that's gotta be good, right? Though going without my computer for a whole day may very well kill me. 😉 We'll see what happens! *Gulp!* Guess I'll report back on Sunday to tell ya how we did.
Edited at 3:30 p.m. to add: I'm having serious 2nd thoughts already. Not sure it's going to happen.

A protective coating for the hive.
Propolis is the scientific name for a resinous glue, an amalgam produced by bees from the balms and resins they collect from the buds of trees. Bees are believed to use it as a "protective coating" to line the hive and protect it from attack. Rich in flavonoids, propolis will be a formidable ally in winter!

There was some surprise among wrestling fans at WrestleMania, when Jack Swagger -- and not Drew McIntyre -- was the wrestler to pick up the honours in the Money In The Bank ladder match. That feeling was multiplied when Swagger took the World Heavyweight Title from Chris Jericho at the Smackdown TV tapings just two days later.
But what was not a shock was that Swagger's task of getting over as champion was made more difficult than necessary; after all, WWE haven't exactly proven themselves to be patient, or clever, in creating stars in the last ten years. In an interview published in the UK's Fighting Spirit Magazine in March, for example, Jim Cornette reeled off to me a list of upcoming talents that WWE had driven completely out of the business, such as Nick "Eugene" Dinsmore, the Spirit Squad's Jonny Jeter, and Doug and Danny Basham. None of those names conjure much positive thought, but were they ever given a chance to reach their full potential?
But in any case, back to the subject of Swagger. Not only was it difficult for the former All-American wrestler to come away from his win with any heel heat because he was taking the title from another heel in Jericho -- something which confused the fans in attendance, who wondered if Jericho was turning babyface -- but as an on-screen character, he's had less preparation for a major title run than anyone in recent memory.
In the months leading up to WrestleMania, in television singles matches Swagger lost to MVP, Yoshi Tatsu, Santino Marella, and Mark Henry (the latter two, admittedly, in loser-is-thrown-over-the-top matches), with his only singles match wins coming against MVP and Santino Marella. When he took the title from Jericho, then, the fans watching couldn't help but believe that Swagger was just a paper champion -- a performer not to be taken seriously as a title-holder -- hardly the type of build that is going to entice fans to entice fans emotionally, or fiscally, into future title defences.
In the build to WrestleMania, Swagger also lost singles matches on television to John Cena and Triple H. Given that he was to take the title just after the big event, he should have been taking wins from those contests -- even if they were garnered by underhanded means -- and developed a hot-streak of victories which would have made him a more credible champion. A reason for his change in fortune should have been established by the various television commentators, and Swagger should have been allowed the time to declare that he wasn't a star of the future, he was the star of right now.
All of the above, of course, is predicated on the idea that you have your ideas set out for several months beforehand. Following last year's WrestleMania debacle -- where only Shawn Michaels' bout with The Undertaker had a timely build -- things were markedly better this year, with that rematch, the implosion of Legacy, Chris Jericho versus Edge, and the Bret Hart versus Vince McMahon bout receiving significant play over the course of the prior three months or more. With those matches so well planned out (actually, the Legacy dissolution took too long to occur), one wonders if the creative team had time for much planning toward Money In The Bank or its aftermath.
For all the problems with putting the title on Swagger two weeks ago, and as back-asswards as the logic is, there was still chance to begin to recover the perception of Swagger once the belt was around his waist. But on the next television show after he took the title, Raw on April 5, not only did Randy Orton lay out the new champion at the beginning of the show, but he also RKO'd his way to victory in the main event as well.
The loss is at least building to a chance for Swagger to get his revenge at Extreme Rules, even though he and Orton compete on different brands. One would expect Swagger to retain the title on that night, but if the booking "logic" that has been afforded to him so far continues to the pay-per-view, that may not be the case.
Argue all you like about whether Swagger has the overall talent to deserve to hold the World Heavyweight Title at this stage, but there's no doubt that the 28-year-old has thus far not been given the ball with which to run.
Speaking of the ball, the situation reminds me much of a quote from former Manchester United soccer captain Roy Keane: "Fail to prepare, then prepare to fail."
Brian Elliott is a British journalist covering soccer, mixed martial arts (MMA), and professional wrestling, who has recently written for the likes of the Daily Mirror newspaper, the Associated Press, and Sports Illustrated.

Today, literally not a single paid journalist or politician is exercising any critical scrutiny over the 7/7 Inquest. An inquest into an event which has been used to justify a national commitment to overseas wars and torture, as well as the erosion of domestic civil liberties
Over this last weekend a handful of, for want of a better adjective, ordinary people have been working through and analysing transcripts and other material generated by the 7/7 Inquest. These researchers are not being paid for their efforts and they are, in fact, reviled and accused of being mentally ill by the professional whores who should be doing that work
What a screwed up state of affairs we find ourselves in. We live in a time where the range of public discourse permitted to us by our Establishment has been so narrowed that the simple act of being sceptical of government narratives is now routinely dismissed as mental illness
Fuck them
Fuck them all
The folks at J7 have recently started a blog dedicated to their analysis of the material generated by the 7/7 Inquest
The first three posts are...
7 July Inquests: It's A Conspiracy, Stupid!
Which points out that the people running and taking part in the 7/7 Inquest are doing a stand-up job of attributing blame and apportioning guilt to the four alleged 7/7 bombers
...even though a) the Inquest has barely started, and b) the people running and taking part in the 7/7 Inquest have acknowledged that it is not the job of an inquest to attribute blame or apportion guilt anyway
A CCTV Fuss About Nothing?
Which ponders the question of how the Metropolitan Police could have been searching CCTV footage from Luton Station for signs of the alleged bombers one day before the Met had actually identified who the alleged bombers were and where they'd boarded their train. Maybe the Met is in on the secret of time travel?
The Final Curtain - "CCTV rich" to "CCTV FAIL!"
We Conspiranauts are well familiar with the long-established scientific principle that CCTV cameras spontaneously break-down whenever pointed at alleged terrorists carrying out their attacks or policemen shooting innocent people in the back of the head. However, there is still an almost comedic quality to the list of excuses, obsfucation and plain old bullshit that is being offered up by the Met in lieu of actual CCTV coverage from 7/7.
It's all vaguely reminiscent of Monty Python's Cheese Shop sketch - only the Met has got fuck all video evidence rather than cheese
At this rate of foul-ups the 7/7 Inquest is going to tie itself into terminal knots within a few weeks, regardless of however compliant the mainstream media continue to be. Presumably this will have been anticipated and corrective measures will be employed. Such a state of affairs was reached in the weeks after 7/7 when even the mainstream press started to question the suicide bomber narrative. At which point one, then two, 'confession' videos fortuitously emerged on the web and all was right in Official Narrative Land once again
As well as the work being carried out by J7, the researcher behind wideshut.co.uk is also publishing some analysis
And that, aside from some comments posted on this blog, is about it as far as I'm aware of. I do miss Lord Patel's contributions, and Lord Patel, at times like this. If anyone passing through this blog knows of any other decent research (and I think it's fairly clear what I mean by decent) being carried out on the 7/7 Inquest material please do share

Simplicity 8741 - Peasant Top
Added Jul 21, 2011
by sewwrong
Boston, Massachu...
A new technique I tried with this top were french seams, a seam finishing technique commonly used on sheer and lightweight fabrics to conceal raw edges. Since this fabric is a little on the sheer side, I opted to finish all of my seams, even the armhole seams, using this technique and I loved it. The inside is so professional looking, and even though it was a little more time consuming, it was worth it. I've washed the top a few times and it's held up nicely. Plus, if I hadn't done that, my seam allowances would be visible from the right side. That wouldn't look nice at all!
All in all, a pretty simple, go-to top for something like this. I would use it again if I'm looking for a peasant style top since I know it:
a) won't make me look prego with billowing gathers of fabric
b) is a snap to stitch up
Material Notes
I've had this fabric in my stash for about two years and had a hard time trying to find a pattern that would complement it. It was lightweight, a little transparent, and had such a cool embroidered flower pattern that I knew I didn't a pattern that would break up the design. Something loose and breezy…a peasant top!

October 27, 2008
Re: If you Want Economic Recovery, Eliminate The Capital Gains Tax On Profits From Monies Used To Purchase New Plant And Equipment And To Create New Jobs.
Having spent the last two weeks in Prague, Germany and Luxembourg, this writer can attest that one is never really out of touch if one doesn't wish to be. USA Today, the International Herald Tribune, the European edition of the Wall Street Journal and CNN are everywhere, not to mention the BBC. So it was possible -- though the polar opposite of delightful -- to watch the further economic meltdown arising from the loss of moral principles inculcated decades ago in the Midwest shortly after World War II. Good faith, honesty, diligent long range thought, competence, concern for others continue to be on holiday, just as they were when the ARMs, other subprimes, derivatives, 1.7 billion annual paydays for fund managers, Reaganesque (and Republican) induced greed, ever increasing income disparity, ever increasing deregulation, destruction of Glass-Steagall, Greenspanish/Ayn Randish laxity, Greenspanish efforts to cover up one burst bubble by inducing another bubble, were in high carnival. The attempts at financial cure by one of disaster's architects, Paulson, have thus far proven to be further ineptitude born of poor thought and panic: the 700 billion dollar bailout is to date a failure that only rescues big business, banks still are not lending though they now are fabulously enriched by government money, huge companies that collapse (though for decades we were assured that in hugeness lies salvation) are being merged so that they will be yet bigger (and next time can take down the universe), small businesses are collapsing, some huge corporations seem on the verge, the stock market has dropped like a rock, retirement monies have been rendered financially quadriplegic, people are losing jobs by the scores or hundreds of thousands, homeowners are losing their homes by the scores or hundreds of thousands, to put icing on the cake one read that a high official of Goldman Sachs -- Paulson's old firm, which sold the trash by the gazillions but was one of the few banks not stupid enough to own the trash itself -- was somehow present at high level discussions of what to do about AIG, whose collapse, if I have it right, might have caused the collapse of Goldman too because Goldman owned so much AIG debt, nations abroad have caught America's pneumonia, and the ruling establishment of this country, including the sainted disciple of the fool Ayn Rand, Alan Greenspan, has yet again shown itself stupid, greedy, uncaring of others, dishonest, dismissive of facts, and, many of them, worthy only of being put against the wall -- after a fair trial, of course, and only metaphorically, of course -- for smashing up the lives of tens or scores of millions.
Yes, a lot happened while the author was in Europe, and one hardly knows what to say. Plainly events are in the saddle and ride mankind.
In the midst of the disaster, please allow this writer to make two small suggestions, one standard (and alluded to here previously), the other unique as far as I know. The first requisite of economic recovery is emphatically not to give billions to the swine who brought disaster upon us and who currently simply hoard what they are given -- hoard it against a rainy day when we are already at sea in a typhoon. Rather, the first requisite of economic recovery is to give money to those who will have to spend it because they are in need. They have lost their jobs, their homes, sometimes their cars, their food may be dwindling. They will spend the money, not hoard it, and their expenditures will help revival. And while you're at it, by the way, lower all interest rates to some reasonable amount like 6 or 7 or 8 percent: lower the rates both of those who have lost or may lose their homes, and those who have managed to bear up under the burden; reinstall usury laws, which were knocked out defacto by the Supreme Court 30 years ago using the arguments of a brilliant lawyer who did evil (you might be surprised -- or not -- at who it was and later made clear to me that he was proud of it); and if banks and security holders scream and yell and shout the constitutional strictures about obligations of contracts, well, eff the greedy bastards. Congress and states, it has been ruled, can change the obligations of contracts when escaping societal disaster makes this desirable, and, anyway, even the greedy emmeffers will be financially better off if people can pay their mortgages than if the disaster continues.
Now the unique idea, one that will cause persons who stupidly call me socialistic to run screaming to the loony bin -- where they should be -- because the idea is so capitalistic in nature. Eliminate -- or at minimum, drastically reduce -- the capital gains tax for equity investments used for the purpose of purchasing new plant and equipment or of creating new jobs. Maybe also lower, perhaps drastically lower (even eliminate?) the tax on loans used for these purposes. But tax at ordinary income rates the gains on equity investments used to buy stocks that are already trading, and tax at reasonable rates, though perhaps at less than ordinary income tax rates, the gains on used houses, i.e., houses that have already been purchased a first time.
However, one works out the details, eliminating or greatly reducing the capital gains tax on monies investors use to provide equity for new plant, equipment or jobs will result in a vast redirection of funds that presently go into the unproductive greed machine called the stock market. The idea here is not terribly different, after all, from the idea behind venture capital funds. People will invest in (and lenders will loan for) productive uses, instead of the effing stock market, because of the vast tax break on capital gains and because stock market profits will be taxed at a near ordinary income rates. Money mangers and funds will spring up to investigate, make recommendations for, and run money for purposes of investment in new plant, equipment and jobs (just as venture capitalists already do for the wealthy). Retirement monies could be invested (or loaned) so that they not only earn money tax free before retirement, but afterwards will be tax free (or have much lower taxes) when people take them out and use them during retirement. Monies could be invested abroad -- even in third world countries -- to be used for new plant, equipment and jobs.
One knows, of course, that the small minded, the tax experts, the tax lawyers, the already rich who want to keep their monopoly on venture capital profits will find a thousand reasons to object to this. They'll say -- although it is complete bullshit -- that you won't know what monies are being used for the appropriate purposes and which for other purposes. Baloney: monies will be raised and used for specific purposes just as venture capitalists do, and any commingling merely presents an accounting problem that is less than kindergarten play for today's computers. They'll say there won't be enough demand for all the monies people will want to invest. This is baloney because, when you open up investments to this tax treatment -- and especially if you open foreign investments to it -- the sky may be the limit. They'll say people will be risking loss of their retirement nest eggs (like George Bush would have had them lose their social security by investing in the stock market). This too is baloney. What do they call what's already happened to people whose retirement funds have been smashed? What's more, in the overall, good venture capitalists make a fortune on balance even if they lose money on some particular investments. Moreover, like today's venture capitalists, the investment funds which spring up to accommodate the investment monies can provide advice to and can engage in monitoring new businesses where necessary. And anyone who does not want to take the risk can continue investing, as they do now, in the stock market, in debt instruments (CDs, Treasuries, etc.).
Opponents will also ask if the new tax treatment should be applicable to corporations that spend monies for new plant and equipment. Of course it should: for scores of years we have already had tax breaks (e.gs., accelerated depreciation, tax credits) for investment in new plant and equipment. And determining the profits attributable (or at least reasonable estimates of the profits attributable) to the new plant, equipment and workers, is simply a matter of cost accounting. How difficult can it be to make reasonable estimates with today's computers?
The bottom line is this: the already privileged, and the sticks in the mud, will find a thousand alleged objections. Nonetheless, if you want the economy to revive, then quickly eliminate or greatly reduce the capital gains tax on profits from monies invested for new plant, equipment and jobs, and increase the capital gains tax profits from monies used in the wasteful pursuits of trading securities and other things.*

The British Royal Navy is embarrassed that one of its four SSBNs (ballistic missile submarines) suffered a rudder failure after test firing a SLBM (sea launched ballistic missile) off North America (Florida) last October. The sub (the HMS Vanguard) has just undergone a midlife refurbishment that cost over half a billion dollars. After the rudder problem was discovered the Vanguard entered an American shipyard in nearby Georgia for repairs. The Royal Navy has not revealed details of how a sub fresh out of a three year refurbishment could suffer a rudder failure four months later. This is not the first such embarrassment for the Vanguard. The rudder problem comes years after the sub collided with a French SSBN while submerged in the mid-Atlantic. The damage to both boats was superficial, but it was embarrassing how two SSBNs could have bumped into each other in the middle of an ocean.
There are other problems with the Vanguard and its three sister ships. There is, as yet, no certainty that they will be replaced when they wear out in the next 15 years or so. There is some work is under way to design and build a new generation of British SSBNs. Four years ago Britain hired an American submarine builder (General Dynamics) to design a Common Missile Compartment (CMC) for Britain's next class of SSBN, which are to begin replacing the current Vanguard class boats in the 2020s. The Vanguard boats are 150 meters (465 feet) long, displace 14,000 tons, have a crew of 135 and entered service in the 1990s. They carry 16 Trident II missiles, weighing 59 tons, with a range of 11,300 kilometers and carrying up to eight warheads. A new class of SSBNs is expected to be about the same size, but that will cost up to $30 billion and there is growing support in Britain for doing away with their SSBNs altogether.
The U.S. Navy will use the CMC for its next class of SSBNs. This makes sense, because Britain buys the ballistic missiles for its SSBNs from the United States. It would be too expensive for Britain to design and build its own SSBN ballistic missiles. Thus the CMC will have to be designed by an American firm, with access to data on the characteristics (especially the dimensions) of future missiles for SSBNs.
Britain and the United States have long cooperated on designing nuclear submarines, especially SSBNs. The U.S. and Britain are designing two different SSBNs. But each sub will have many common features, like the CMC, and that will save a lot of money for both nations. The 18 U.S. Ohio class SSBNs were built between 1979 and 1997. The 16,000 ton Ohios were built to serve for twenty years, but that has been extended at least 15, and possibly 30 years. In the next 5-10 years, work on a new class of U.S. SSBNs will have to begin. One option Britain may consider is simply buying four of the new American SSBNs, although such boats would be full of British designed and built equipment.

Get start-up capital for your small business
6 comments:
- Anonymous said...
So what does creating an APP, do to help create JOBS or get a company start up capital. These small business "shoptalks" are pathetic. Get some real advice these articles seem to be targeting dummies.
1. To get start-up capital. Tap your own savings, family members, friends or start putting money aside from your current job.
2. Make sure you have a product or service NEEDED. Somethings are just not that important to buying customers.
3. Get a line of credit. It can be a personal or business.
That's more helpful than this article.

Bill I am sorry you didn't get "your America back." Thank God we still have our America though. The president is for all the people and want everyone to be able to make it,if they try. Unlike Mr.Romney who was in it for himself, and a few right wingers. Did you see how fast he cutoff the staffers who was running his campaign? The same night he lost. He would have cutoff at least 47% of American the same way had he won. President Obama is on God's true side. That is why he is shown his favor by God. God blessed America by giving us President Obama.

On Thursday, June 20, the U.S. House rejected a 2013 farm bill.
On Thursday, June 20, the U.S. House rejected a 2013 farm bill.
The five-year, half-a-trillion-dollar farm bill, championed by Rep. Collin Peterson, D-Minn. Dist. 7, and Rep. Frank Lucas, R-Okla., covered both agricultural programs and food stamps. Many expected the bill to pass with bi-partisan support, but Peterson cited some last minute revisions for sinking the bill. One revision was an amendment that eliminated a prevision authored by Peterson to stabilize the milk market, and the other was an amendment that would allow states to launch pilot programs requiring food stamp recipients to work for their benefits.
In a statement, Peterson responded to the bill's failure to pass, " ... From day one I cautioned my colleagues that to pass a farm bill we would have to work together. Instead, the House adopted a partisan amendment process, playing political games with extreme policies that have no chance of becoming law.
"This flies in the face of nearly four years of bipartisan work done by the Agriculture Committee. I'll continue to do everything I can to get a farm bill passed but I have a hard time seeing where we go from here."
Minnesota Corn Growers Association (MCGA) president Tom Haag has also released a statement: "Minnesota's corn farmers are greatly disappointed that the House did not pass the farm bill. This farm bill would have reduced our country's deficit, made necessary reforms to farm policy, and strengthened risk management tools available to farmers that protect the nation's food supply. In the end, it appears that farmers got caught in the middle of another partisan political battle where nobody – especially farmers – came out a winner. We thank House Agriculture Chairman Frank Lucas and Ranking Member Collin Peterson for their hard work and strong leadership during this process. MCGA remains hopeful that the farm bill can get back on track, and that the House will pass a farm bill that puts farmers and the American people ahead of politics as usual."
Minnesota Republicans Erik Paulsen (Minn. Dist. 3) and John Kline (Minn. Dist. 2) backed the bill along with Peterson and fellow Democrat Tim Walz (Minn. Dist. 1). DFLers Keith Ellison (Minn. Dist. 5), Betty McCollum (Minn. Dist. 4) and Rick Nolan (Minn. Dist. 8) voted against the farm bill and were joined by Republican Michele Bachmann (Minn. Dist. 6).
The bill failed 195-234.

ForumsDevelopersSSL Credentials in .Net and C#
SSL Credentials in .Net and C#
So I've started working on a basic app for myself that will help me manage some aspects of my Toodledo tasks. Everything was going smoothly up until the point that I needed to get the access and refresh tokens.
I have worked for about six hours straight trying every possibility that I can think of, but I'm consistently getting a 400 Bad Request error with the details usually a code about credentials not being in the header or body, even though I am passing all these parameters about every way I can.
Has anyone successfully made it past this in a C#/.Net application that can give me some tips? I'm amazed at how difficult I am finding this.
As tends to happen, I stumbled upon the solution right after posting. In case it helps anyone else, this is the credential method I managed to get to work.
CredentialCache credCache = new CredentialCache();
credCache.Add(new Uri(mainURL), "Basic", new NetworkCredential(basicAuthUsername, basicAuthPassword));
webReq.Credentials = credCache;
webReq.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + Convert.ToBase64String(new ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(basicAuthUsernamePassword)));
The mainURL variable is just the token.php URL. The two basicAuth fields are the client ID and secret. The combined field is just those same two but together, like it would be in front of the URL. user:secret.
Hopefully that can help someone else.

Thanks for posting your answer. I am sorry that it was a challenge. You may want to look and see if there are any .net Oauth2 libraries that you can use to speed up the development.
Also, the sample code that we provide in other languages may give you some clues.

I found this silky, strappy nightdress in an amazing coral colour on ebay last year.
But I've only just got around to wearing it [it needed adapting from ankle length and flowy into knee length and fitted].
I like to accompany it [like the stylist of The Row A/W11/12], with thick socks and a fur hat, in the hope it shocks the nightie into looking less like a... nightie.
PS. It's freezing! But, clearly, I'm ignoring that...
..... Night night.

As always we can debate all we ever want, but whether he will be brought back or be resting in peace is completely up to the director's whim.

Well Blade I agree with your points, but under the right circumstances there could be a pretty damn good "why" in the context of the story IF it's done right.
For example, if Lelouch was revived against his will and was then pissed about it I could understand that. Maybe the people he put in charge also royally screwed up and have their back to the wall in some new conflict. Maybe then Lelouch plans on killing himself and just going back to being dead, but Suzaku or Kallen or somebody else tells him to suck it up and help out. Then perhaps through the course of the story he redeams himself, or sacrafices himself again, but this time in a more noble way that makes everyone honor his memory instead of thinking of him as Hitler lol.
So I guess what i'm trying to say is that if Sunrise tried to say that Lelouch is just fine and in hiding somewhere, I would have to say that they pulled that out of their butts. But I wouldn't mind if he was brought back tastefully AND with a very good reason in the context of the story.

i prefer to think of it as karma saying
"hey Lelouch"
"remember how you chose to do your plan instead of ending the war like a normal person ?"
"remember all the people you murdered in order to do that plan ?"
"did you really think you can just rest in peace after all that ?"
"you wanted to created a world where everyone on the planet hates your guts"
"well, congratulations"
"now you get to live in it"
now THAT is something i can accept
it actually kinda fitting for lelouch's masterplan to turn into a massive case of "nice job breaking it, hero"
its perfectly in character for him
he did zero-requiem because his ego didn't allow him to do anything else, so having it come back to bite him in the ass is practiclly Newtonian
"for every action there is a reaction"

Humm... I don't want to see Lelouch coming back...
But if they will bring him, at least it must be in a epic way: Saving everyone in the biggest pinch of the series with no explanations whatsoever of why is he alive. Like when Zechs returns in Gundam Wing. It was like: "Zechs? You're alive?" "What do you think? Now i want to kick some ass!"

Yes, let's take the Zero Requiem bashing from the forums to the actual series - that's what we need!
It's so much fun to spit into the faces of those who actually liked something about the ending. Oh, and into Lelouch's, because it's totally his fault that the staff didn't care enough about the possible advantages of peace treaties to reconsider.
Hell, they glorified the ending. As long as they meant it, which is very likely indeed, Leouch actually chose a route that is justifiable in the world he lived in, unrealistic as that may be.
Live with it. Otherwise, Clovis will steal your cake.

If we keep this up, we could build an armee. I'm sure Clovis would join! ...If we stay clear of firearms of any kind, that is.

Atleast it was an entertaining end to the original series instead of the 'peace' route.
But as was established earlier, my favorite route would probably be Lelouch coming back not according to his plans again.

Oh, I don't mind ZR at all! I love ZR. I think it was messed up, but I also think it was perfectly in character. Lelouch only did what he saw was best. In his eyes it was a perfect plan, and that's the part that makes his sacrifice for it so special -not whether it actually worked or not.
It's kind of like watching a blind man try to paint. You know it's wrong, but it's beautiful anyway.

He did the Zero-Requiem because it was effective. Was it ego? Perhaps, I lean toward an attitude of genuine care for those that knew him as being a factor as well, and his belief that one has to actually step up to what he says, basically how only those who kill have a right to be killed in turn.
I really don't see anyone else coming up with better ideas honestly, so does anyone think they have validity in criticizing him for at least trying where everyone else just sits on their behinds in front of the computer screen here
And btw, this is just getting way too off-topic already and I think you guys are taking way too much advantage of this forum to just vent out unnecsesary complaints about Lelouch here so mind cutting it out already? <_<

Honestly though, I never really approved of Lelouch's methods that much, even from the start. So ZR really wasn't much of a surprise for me and it didn't really do that much to lower my opinion of him (since it was already quite low) But hey, it is what it is.

Oh who are you trying to kid? You remember the last person that didn't agree with Lelouch's methods? Yeah, I wonder how far Suzaku managed to get by them with all his morality junk. Approval, smosal, what matters in the end is that they actually manage to do something about it and be the one left standing after its all said and done. Without either of those idealism just gets tooted as decorated varnish that lacks any substance from spine-less hypocrites only going so far as their whining mouths takes them, which is to say not very far at all, or people who just get stomped into the dust and forgotten in the end.
