I initially considered using a Lego walkie-talkie piece for Adam's phone, but the size is huge compared to minifigures. It would have looked like he was using a "luggable" phone from the 1980s.
While making this comic I had a scathingly brilliant idea. Death of Inhaling Hatmaking Chemicals is a Cockney, by the traditional definition by virtue of having been born* within earshot of the bells of the church of St Mary-le-Bow in London's East End.
So, if we record the sound of the bells and broadcast them around the world, we could make the entire world Cockney. In fact, there are several MP3s of the bells available on the web:
If you know anyone about to have a baby, see if you can sneak one of those into the delivery room for this experiment.* I leave the philosophical question of how a Death is born to the reader.
The church of St Mary-le-Bow provides its very own web page on the history of the bells. Also, this being the modern Internet, rather than that of 2006, I can now also link to a YouTube video of the bells ringing!
So if you happen to be in a maternity ward right now, play it and see if you can turn someone into a Cockney.

Security News Summary For Oct. 7, 2016
A look at the security events that made headlines this week:
Verizon may seek a $1B discount on Yahoo acquisition (Computerworld)
Verizon may be getting cold feet with its acquisition of Yahoo. Reportedly, it's asking for a $1 billion discount on the original $4.8 billion deal for the Internet company. Recent news about Yahoo's massive data breach and its alleged secret email scanning program has diminished the company's value in the eyes of Verizon

Two charged in Chicago with operating cyber-attack-for-hire websites (Chicago Tribune)
On Wednesday, federal authorities announced charges in Chicago against two 19-year-old men who allegedly orchestrated attacks with the online monikers of Lizard Squad and PoodleCorp. Authorities alleged they shut down the web networks of gaming companies and engaged in so-called phone bombing schemes like the one used in Illinois. The loosely based crew also sold stolen payment card account information on thousands of victims, prosecutors said.
Cyber attacks trickle down to smaller companies (Long Island Business News)
As high-profile cyber attacks make headlines and spur legislation considered by Congress, information technology professionals today noted the problem has spread far beyond huge companies as hack attacks proliferate. Although names like Target, Staples, The Home Depot and the Democratic National Committee may come to mind regarding data breaches, experts at a cyber security summit organized by Long Island Business News today described a kind of trickle down tech effect.
Energy sector sees increase in cyber-attacks (Agri-Pulse)
The energy sector has seen a major increase in the number of successful cyber-attacks over the past year, the World Energy Council says in a new report. With its increasing interconnection and digitization, such as the emergence of smart grids and smart devices, the sector makes a "highly attractive target for cyber-attacks aimed at disrupting operations," the Council says.

Will say this once and then nothing else. Defamation laws quite clear in Aus.be careful.
Nah, guys, we've already asked things re: libertarianism etc. to stop for the time being. If you want, make your own thread, and I might move some posts.
CBF right now, tbf.
WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME TO WHAT TO DO a
Communism isn't dead either in terms of existence. In terms of a viable economic philosophy it's long gone. Even Keynesians don't call themselves strictly Keynesians but some other mutation to save face. The only reason it still has prevalence is because it is a perfect excuse to mandate government expansion. Politicians aren't going to give up the golden goose.
There are no notions of a perfect market - that's a strawman. No one thinks the market is perfect and your claim is ludicrous. It is merely that the free market is the best alternative - not that it is perfect. You should know this, but then again, representatives of your side of the argument have shown they don't know much about the opposition's philosophy when berating it. Honestly, it discredit and disqualifies you in this discussion. This is a Spark-like blunder.
Ironically, the more cuckoo notion is Keynesian: that with adjustments/interventions by the government we can stay in a constant boom. If you want to argue that the world is too intricate and complicated, then you wouldn't be on the Keynesian side. They think it's not complicated enough, hence they meddle in it.
Per usual, you haven't given one argument with a point that actually addresses anything you disagree with. You just repeat "it doesn't work because it doesn't work". There are far greater minds than yours, who have been through more than both of us combined, who state opinions contrary to yours. This personal experience argument you have going doesn't cut the mustard in terms of an intelligible debate.
As for your continuously snide remarks: I've looked after my family in running two businesses, a restaurant and a gift store, since I have been in my teens because both my parents suffered back accidents and can no longer work much. This is while studying for a law degree. I already live in the real world; so **** up, thanks.
No, what the example ironically shows is that even with all the government regulations in place it still happened and, unfortunately, will always happen. It doesn't back up your argument at all. It does back up mine, however: that KFC are made to suffer a hefty price and in order to stay away from negative publicity they'll have to make changes.
Again, you can't legislate out harm. This world is no utopia and bad things happen to good people. It is a very sad case and looking at her picture it moves me because it reminds me of my sister. What I'd rather happen is that masses of people boycott KFC for a while and watch them scramble. But, of course, personal responsibility and action is just too much to ask for some. They're only activists when someone else is doing the work. Personally, I will not be touching KFC any more.

That you continue to peddle this ridiculous fiction that somehow I've left the debate because I'm embarrassed by a mistake simply backs my earlier point. No, ffs, I knew exactly what I was saying, I was pointing out a logical inconsistency in your argument.
The reason I left the debate was because continuing seemed as pleasant to me as having open bowel surgery with a stick.
Now, enough.
do you think people will be allowed to make violins?
who's going to make the violins?

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta
I didn't say you left the debate. I said you should leave the debate. Myself, Friedman, other Libertarians and free market proponents rely greatly on the intervention of courts - we're not anarchists - so there is no inconsistency. That kind of mistake is simply unforgivable, especially when you post as if you know enough to make sweeping generalisations. It was and is an embarrassing mistake, moreso because you post so indignantly and refer to ad hominems when you come up short.
Likewise, Burgey, who confused a perfect market for a free market, made a comparable blunder. These are the very basic things you have to know. It does, however, show why he would be indignant about my position before, since he thought the two equated, because to assume any economic model will achieve a perfect market is pure delusion. That's the point about free markets: they may not be perfect, but they're less harmful than models which purport to fix market failures. And with their outcome, it is the representation of consent amongst people in the market...not manipulation from those who would use the power of the market to benefit themselves.
The fact that both of you got it horribly wrong should, at the least, humble you to read more before you question me, as if I do not know what I am talking about.
It's akin to arguing about the greatest cricket batsmen and forgetting Bradman averaged 99.94. They're red flags for you not knowing the subject matter well enough. This is not to say I know everything - economics is not my chosen field of study - but I know enough to argue the subject. With all due respect, you don't.

text: News BK, nation remember victims of 9/11 attacks (AP) - With familiar rituals of grief and a new purpose to honor those who rushed into danger to help, the nation marked eight years Like Tweet Share Pin Email 0 Comments September 11, 2009 2:55 PM NEW YORK - (AP) - With familiar rituals of grief and a new purpose to honor those who rushed into danger to help, the nation marked eight years since the Sept. 11 terror attacks Friday, with volunteers reading the names of the World Trade Center lost. Memorials in New York, at the Pentagon and at the crash site of United Airlines Flight 93 in Pennsylvania all took place under gray skies, and those reading names at ground zero spoke under tents to protect against rain. President Barack Obama, observing his first Sept. 11 as president, had signed an order declaring it a day of service. He had first lady Michelle Obama marked a moment of silence outside the White House as a bugler played taps. The president said the nation came together after the attacks, "united not only in our grief but in our resolve to stand up for the country we love." In Shanksville, Pa., bells tolled for the 40 victims of the fourth hijacked jetliner that crashed there eight years ago. At the trade center site, volunteers - from soup kitchens, advocacy groups, the Red Cross, the United Way - joined relatives of the lost to read the names of those killed in the twin towers. Around the country, Americans packed up care packages for soldiers, planted gardens for low-income families and painted abandoned, boarded-up homes. The anniversary was declared a day of service for the first time this year to honor the spirit of those who rushed to the burning towers to save lives. Umbrellas bloomed and whipped inside-out at ground zero, where moments of silence were observed at 8:46, 9:03, 9:59 and 10:29 a.m. - the precise times that jetliners struck the north and south towers of the trade center and that each tower fell. Relatives and friends of victims visited a partially built, street-level Sept. 11 memorial plaza that had not been there a year ago. The memorial will ultimately include two square pools evoking the towers' footprints, with victims' names surrounding them and waterfalls cascading down the sides. George W. Bush, whose presidency was defined in part by that day, had no public appearances planned. A spokesman said he would be working in his office. In a statement, he said he and his wife, Laura, were thinking of the victims and their families. He also honored members of the armed forces and law enforcement.

Need some plant life in your space, but don't have the horizontal real estate for a potted plant? How about hanging it on the wall? Having been a fan of BOA's sustainably harvested wood pieces for some time now, I was delighted to find a tutorial she put together for moss wall panels.
BOA is founder of Object Interiors and specializes in sustainable design. Nature heavily influences her work, having grown up in the U.S. Virgin Islands, her work has an ease and natural grace about it. She uses the same inspiration for her DIY moss panel tutorial over at Readymade. In a half a day, 5 simple steps and minimal cash outlay, you can have these beauties on your wall, too. On the topic of eco-friendly design BOA says, "it doesn't always cost more money, and...shouldn't be elitist."

Three essential plays by one of Europe's foremost 20th century dramatists The Rules of the Game (1918) is based closely on the author's own unhappy marriage centred around Leone Gala and his wife who are separated, their only contract, a formal visiting procedure; Henry 1V, shows the effect of madness and delusion on the figure of a king (1922); and in Six Characters in Search of an Author six actors are trapped inside a rehearsal for an unwritten play desperately needing a writer to complete their story and release them.
Intrigued by their situation, the director and his company of actors listen as the characters begin to describe and argue over the key events of their lives.
This, his best known play, caused riots when it was first produced at the Teatro Valle in Rome in 1921.

Chick-fil-a has cow appreciation day this Friday. Free combo meal if you come dressed as a cow. It isn't that bad, we actually went last year with a bunch of neighbors and we all ate free, we just cut a few black spots and taped them to our shirts. No one even laughed at us. Truth be told, when I go places with all my kids we can be a circus anyway, whats a few cow spots and some ears? Go here to print a costume that is super easy, my four kids will all be wearing it for a kids meal. OK, I will too. If you want to See Jane dress as a cow, meet me for lunch. I will be removing it as soon as I order though =)
If I can get Aaron to wear a costume maybe we'll go for lunch AND dinner, but I really think it would be a cold day you know where before he dresses as a cow. Maybe when we go there for dinner I will tape a cow tail on his rear when he isn't looking, ha ha.
My sisters friend sent her this when she mentioned meeting for lunch there, I think it expresses how we all feel, agree? I never met a person that didn't love the place.

Have you noticed that everyone seems to have a MySpace or Facebook page and is "tweeting" on Twitter? What is "social networking" all about anyway, and how can the typical remodeler benefit? Let's start with how you should not be thinking of social networking sites:
- They are not just "free Web pages" that you can substitute for your regular marketing website. Sure you can (and definitely should) set up a presence there (if you get an online referral people need an easy way to reach you) but it's the "network" part of social networking that really counts.
- They're not "just for kids." Yes, there are plenty of high school and college kids using social networking sites, but they are also heavily used by Gen Y — people who are now heading into their 30s and are buying and remodeling houses. Sites such as TBD and 55-Alive are popping up for boomers and beyond, with more coming online every day.
- They're not just "cyberspace." Facebook and MySpace both represent local concerns in a big way with groups of people from your town, your college, in similar professions, who share your hobbies: Pretty much any kind of "affinity" group you'd find in the physical world will make its way to the social networking sites.
- They're not a passing fad. Though the popularity of one site over another will change, now that everyone is online, the core idea isn't going anywhere. The typical Facebook user has 500 "friends" and will know most of them well enough (through either the physical or digital worlds) to feel comfortable recommending (or trashing) a service provider (like you) without hesitation.
The way for remodelers to benefit from social networking sites is to think of them just as you would your local Rotary club or church board of trustees: Your volunteer participation keeps you top-of-mind with the people in the group. If they need home improvement work, they're more likely to recommend or hire you if you've helped them out.
In the social networking world that means you can't just slap up a page and sit on the sidelines (nobody will know you're there); neither can you swoop in once every six months with blatant self-promotion (that approach will get you banned).
Instead, you have to actually participate and add value. In social networking circles, that might mean contributing to an online conversation with good home improvement advice, linking your page to helpful online articles, and relating your own experience in a helpful, non-commercial way.
Social networking is no different from volunteering to build sets for the high school play, or spending Saturday at the church with your high-lift if the steeple needs repair: Turning your participation online into paying jobs takes time and effort.
Over time, you'll find your niche as a trusted expert among your social network, and you can turn that participation into paying work. Who knows, you might wind up with an all-expenses paid gig in Fiji.

Are casual, social games the wave of the future? In years to come, will we lovers of the swinging sword, the flashing fireball and the gigantic gun be left reminiscing about the "good old days" as we sign on for another evening of massively multiplayer bingo? The makers of Mytopia took a look into their crystal ball, saw the success of MySpace and Facebook and casual-game havens like Popcap, Yahoo! and Neopets and said, "These great tastes... would taste great together!"
Thus was born Mytopia, a Flash-based virtual world where you can create your own super-deformed avatar (like Wii's Miis) and play popular board and card games with people from around the world, build friends lists, send email, and gamble away virtual money challenging other players to backgammon, chess, Sudoku and several other similar games. It works not only as a standalone web site, but also as an application you can install in Facebook, MySpace or Bebo. No matter how you arrive in Mytopia, though, you'll be able to play with everyone else -- there's only one game world shared by all.
Mytopia has a cheerful art style, bouncy music, and well-rendered board games. What it does not have, though, is bloody avatar fights in the Battledome. Come on. Even Neopets has that.

Raymond Richman - Jesse Richman - Howard Richman
Richmans' Trade and Taxes Blog
June trade data showed a worldwide slowing of business investment Howard Richman, 8/23/2011
The June trade data, released August 11 by the BEA, showed both a slowing of worldwide business investment and an increased bleeding of U.S. prosperity by China. The slowing of business investment was evidenced by the fact that U.S. exports declined from May to June led by U.S. exports of capital goods and industrial supplies. Here is the key paragraph from the report:
The May to June decrease in exports of goods reflected decreases in industrial supplies and materials ($2.0 billion); capital goods ($1.5 billion); foods, feeds, and beverages ($0.8 billion); and other goods ($0.5 billion). An increase occurred in consumer goods ($0.7 billion). Automotive vehicles, parts, and engines were virtually unchanged.
Overall, the report showed declining US net exports (goods and services) from a negative $50.8 billion in May to a negative $53.1 billion in June (a negative $538 billion over the last 12 months). This bleeding of American prosperity was led by China. In fact, U.S. net exports of goods to China set a record low of a negative $287 billion over the most recent 12 months, as graphed below:
So is the world economy about to enter a double dip? I doubt it. The fall in U.S. capital goods sales in June indeed suggests that world investment growth slowed in June. But that could just mean slower world economic growth, not a flip from growth to recession.
Meanwhile, whether the world has economic growth or recession won't much affect the United States. The U.S. trade deficit worsened from January 2010 through May 2011 even though the world economy was booming and the U.S. was still depressed below its fourth quarter 2007 real GDP. The U.S. trade deficit worsened in June 2011 when world economic growth was slowing. The U.S. is locked in a trade-deficit caused depression and there are no signs, whatsoever, of any improvement in that area.

Galatians 5:16-21New International Version (NIV)16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever[a] you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. Footnotes:

U.S. lifts sanctions on post-Gaddafi Libya
The United States on Friday lifted most of the economic sanctions it had in place against Libya before the fall of former ruler Muammar Gaddafi.
After careful consultation with the new Libyan government, the United States rolled back most U.S. sanctions on the government of Libya to keep our commitment to the Libyan people, the White House said in a statement.
Gaddafi's 42-year rule collapsed when his forces fled Tripoli in August and the last of the fighting in Libya ended in October when he was captured and killed by rebels.
The U.S. action followed by the lifting of sanctions by the U.N. Security Council on Libya's central banks and a subsidiary.
Today's action unfreezes all government and central bank funds within U.S. jurisdiction, with limited exceptions, the White House said, adding that assets in the United States of Gaddafi family and his former aides remain frozen.

A PhD in Psychology? That's awesome, man, definitely good luck with that. In fact, call me up in 20 years time, I think together, we can rule the world (though I'm sure Arc and RG would want a slice of the cake).
I used to really like Hitsugaya and Kenpachi. I mean, I still think they're awesome characters, definitely. I've just toned down on the fanboyism and channeled it to Ulquiorra.
And you're going to have to fight Minchan for Hinamori.
*Cracks knuckles* I'ma give it a go.
Okay, due to the nature of the expanding universe and the theory of the big bang, as well as the spread of matter and energy in the universe, it's clear that our universe is actually on the surface of the Glome.
Now, applying that theory to my "Flipbook theory" (which I still need to work out a bit more- I have to go over quantum mechanics and Planck units again, as well as some applied calculus) it seems almost obvious that, with the effect of theormodynamics (which I need to learn), the entire universe is a... 5th dimension... Glominder. Yeah mofos, that's right, I just made up a word.
However, I'm short a dimension. If we apply the effects of the 10thdim videos derived from string theory (guess what else I need to learn), then we can apply the "twist", thereby allowing time travel possible in the 6th dimension.
However, this of course begs the question of "Wht is perspective" and "do souls exist" from the flipbook theory of mine, as well as asks the question of free will and destiny, as the shape would be less of a Glominder but more of a... a Glone. Yes. Another made up word.
*Legs it*
It's a shame that all of these stories are dying out. But I do think it's good that you're picking up one shots instead. They'll be a lot easier to write, and you'll be able to write more because of the nature of oneshots.
I SO love mine the best
*Cracks knuckles* What would you like me to explain?
I ****en love being the nerd.
If I could be bothered, I might make reactions of each captain if another captain left. I just can't be bothered at the moment.

Title: | Economic analysis of the climate pledges of the Copenhagen Accord for the EU and other major countries |

Abstract: | This article uses the world GEM-E3 computable general equilibrium model to assess the economic consequences of the climate 'Copenhagen Accord'. The model allows analyzing the macroeconomic costs in terms of GDP, the change in employment, as well as the impacts on production of specific energy-intensive sectors. Various 2020 climate scenarios are evaluated depending on the GHG mitigation pledges. We find that the cost for the developed countries is around 0.5% of GDP in 2020 for the more ambitious pledges, whereas the GDP effects are more heterogeneous across developing countries and Russia, reflecting the different pledges and the assumptions in the reference scenario across these countries. Further, the article explores whether there is a form of double dividend in the EU when the revenues from auctioning or taxation of GHG emissions are used to reduce the social security contributions of employees. We conclude that GDP and employment perform better compared to the free allocation of permits when more sectors are subject to auctioning or GHG taxes and the additional government revenues are used to reduce the cost of labour. |

Ontario International's transition
Los Angeles has operated Ontario International Airport since 1967 and owned it since 1985.
In 2013, the city of Ontario sued Los Angeles, Los Angeles World Airports and its board of airport commissioners, claiming that since 2007 the defendants had broken agreements to promote Ontario International as a regional airport, costing it airline flight services, millions of passengers and billions of dollars in economic damage.
The case in Riverside County Superior Court was days from trial when a tentative settlement to transfer the airport back to local control was reached in August. It was finalized in December after approval from city councils in Los Angeles and Ontario, and the respective airport commissions.
Officials have said they hope to have Federal Aviation Administration approval for the transfer by July, although the agency has no timetable.
The approximately $245.5 million settlement package includes payments and bond settlements from Ontario and the Ontario International Airport Authority to Los Angeles.
Kelly J. Fredericks, a former Rhode Island airport executive, got the final nod Monday to head the authority that will oversee Ontario International Airport when it returns to Inland control.
The Ontario International Airport Authority formally approved Fredericks' contract at a morning meeting. He is an at-will employee who can be separated at any time, and the language of his contract can remain until 2021.
His first day on the job is March 6. Los Angeles World Airports and the airport authority reached a deal last year to return Ontario International to local ownership and control, decades after Ontario handed both over to L.A. Along with Fredericks' annual salary of $398,500, the authority decided to make direct contributions to his retirement plan, atypical for government or public agency hires.
The contribution will be $47,820 annually, plus a sliding-scale entitlement that could add up to another $40,000 annually, structured on a formula anchored to any excess of Fredericks' base salary. If Fredericks receives a yearly raise of $2,000, as an example, the authority's entitlement contribution would be $38,000.
Al Boling, interim CEO for the authority, said the retirement plan "more closely mirrors what private industry does. ... It's a way to create financial certainty on future costs."
Boling, who is also Ontario city manager, said the authority decided to avoid the usual kind of pension plans included by agencies, such as CalPERS. "It's rare that they hit their investment target for returns, at least in recent years," Boling said.
Assistant City Manager Jacob Green said Monday that he could find no comparable agency pension arrangement in California such as the one the authority reached with Fredericks.
The new CEO also will be eligible for a $100,000 performance bonus after his first year, and for the succeeding years a performance bonus of not less than 25 percent but not more than 40 percent of his annual base salary. The bonuses are at the discretion of the authority's board of directors.

The 2002 winner of the Boston Underground Film Festival (BUFF) Bachus Award, The Neuchatel Sci-Fi Fest Audience Choice Award, and much critical acclaim for its razor sharp, if quite demented social satire, it was created by taking an old sci-fi movie — Killers from Space — overdubbing the soundtrack with humorous dialogue, and adding some new scenes, essentially turning it into an entirely different movie. The plot involves alien invaders with a machine that turns straight people gay.
Scientist Doug Fartin (who insists that his name is pronounced "Far-tan") is in charge of Operation Manhole, a project to eliminate all homosexuals in the military by luring them to a specific spot and then dropping a bomb on them. The bomb, however, misses its target and instead obliterates part of the nearby town of Inbred, Texas. The plane is then struck by an invisible force and crashes to earth, and its occupants – Dr. Fartin and the pilot – are presumed dead.
Fartin, however, was saved from the plane by extraterrestrials with bulging eyeballs, who then performed an operation on him. Fartin wanders back to the military base the next day, with no memory of how he survived the plane crash, and is beginning to exhibit stereotypically gay behavior (e.g., he keeps using the word "fabulous").
Base commander Colonel Butz and surgeon Major Problemo talk to Doug's wife, Vagina, about her husband's new behavior; if she can't turn him back into "a real man," he'll be included in the next bombing. She tries her best to sexually arouse him, but he can only have sex with her while imagining that she's Ted Kennedy.
The next day, Doug Fartin – whose security clearance has been revoked because of his new gayness – steals a piece of paper from a vault in Butz's office. Upon hearing of this, FBI agent Priggs tries to figure out what was stolen, which isn't easy because the vault is highly disorganized and mostly filled with take-out menus. Priggs discovers a handful of marijuana on the floor in front of the vault, and immediately recognizes it as part of Fartin's stash.
Doug arrives at Sodom Flats with the paper, but is caught and confronted by Priggs. Doug punches Priggs out and tries to escape in his car, but a hallucination of bulging eyeballs causes him to run off the road and crash. Regaining consciousness in the base infirmary, Fartin remembers what happened to him after the plane went down, and tells his story to Butz and the others:
The aliens, who are from Uranus ("an all-gay planet"), have been the ones responsible for creating homosexuals on Earth and other planets. Over the centuries, they've monitored these planets and tried to snuff out homophobia. The last time they'd visited Earth was during World War II, when their agents abducted Adolf Hitler and turned him into a cross-dressing lounge singer on another planet; the Germans set up an imposter in Hitler's place, but when the imposter ordered the invasion of Russia, the aliens knew that Nazi Germany was doomed, so they left.
Now the aliens have returned, with a new mission: to build a machine whose transmissions will cause everyone on Earth to become homosexual. They had ordered Fartin to return to the military base, steal from the vault the bottom half of page 32 from the original manuscript of Giovanni's Room, and bring it to the aliens' subterranean headquarters at Sodom Flats. Fartin rightly concluded that there's something on the paper that the aliens needed to complete their machine and refused to cooperate, but the alien leader – the Super-Homo – hypnotized Doug to ensure his complicity.
After hearing Fartin's story, Butz and his associates aren't sure about Doug's sanity. Later, Sheriff Mussolino of Inbred (who's been turned into a bulging-eyed agent of the aliens) materializes in Fartin's room and tells him that the aliens now need a power source for their machine; Fartin, who is now convinced that helping the aliens is the right thing to do, goes to the nearby power station and orders the technician, at gunpoint, to move certain levers and switches (one of which causes the camera filming this movie to temporarily falter). Butz, Problemo, Priggs, Vagina, and others try to stop Doug, but they're too late; everyone looks out the window and witnesses a huge explosion, the radiation from which changes the sexuality of everyone on Earth, turning straight people gay and gay people – such as Doug Fartin – straight.

How to Build a Dinosaur - Extinction Doesn't Have to Be Forever
More information
In movies, in novels, in comic strips, and on television, we've all seen dinosaurs-or at least somebody's educated guess of what they would look like. But what if it were possible to build, or grow, a real dinosaur without finding ancient DNA? Jack Horner, the scientist who advised Steven Spielberg on the blockbuster film Jurassic Park and a pioneer in bringing paleontology into the twenty-first century, teams up with the editor of the New York Times's Science Times section to reveal exactly what's in store.In the 1980s, Horner began using CAT scans to look inside fossilized dinosaur eggs, and he and his colleagues have been delving deeper ever since. At North Carolina State University, Mary Schweitzer has extracted fossil molecules-proteins that survived 68 million years-from a Tyrannosaurus rex fossil excavated by Horner. These proteins show that T. rex and the modern chicken are kissing cousins. At McGill University, Hans Larsson is manipulating a chicken embryo to awaken the dinosaur within-starting by getting it to grow a tail and eventually prompting it to grow the forelimbs of a dinosaur. All of this is happening without changing a single gene.
This incredible research is leading to discoveries and applications so profound they're scary in the power they confer on humanity. How to Build a Dinosaur is a tour of the hot rocky deserts and air-conditioned laboratories at the forefront of this scientific revolution.

A Study of Damage in Curved Composite Panels
by B. Wilder, US Air Force Inst of Technology, United States,A. Palazotto, US Air Force Inst of Technology, United States,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Engineering, Construction, and Operations in Space
Abstract: Composite laminates subjected to a low speed impact, such as a dropped tool or a manufacturing load, often develop an internal delamination. This research studied the effects of a circular delamination on the strength of an eight ply, quasi-isotropic composite laminate. Panels were loaded with a compressive load, and the global buckling strength of the panel and the local buckling strength of the delaminated plies were examined. It was found that, for the level of delamination damage investigated, a linear STAGSC-1 finite element code gave very accurate predictions of global panel strength. Load values which caused local instabilities in the region of panel damage were also recorded.
Subject Headings: Delaminating | Laminated materials | Load factors | Buckling | Compressive strength | Structural strength | Manufacturing

The pattern of polymorphism in Arabidopsis thaliana.
PLoS Biology

We resequenced 876 short fragments in a sample of 96 individuals of Arabidopsis thaliana that included stock center accessions as well as a hierarchical sample from natural populations. Although A. thaliana is a selfing weed, the pattern of polymorphism in general agrees with what is expected for a widely distributed, sexually reproducing species. Linkage disequilibrium decays rapidly, within 50 kb. Variation is shared worldwide, although population structure and isolation by distance are evident. The data fail to fit standard neutral models in several ways. There is a genome-wide excess of rare alleles, at least partially due to selection. There is too much variation between genomic regions in the level of polymorphism. The local level of polymorphism is negatively correlated with gene density and positively correlated with segmental duplications. Because the data do not fit theoretical null distributions, attempts to infer natural selection from polymorphism data will require genome-wide surveys of polymorphism in order to identify anomalous regions. Despite this, our data support the utility of A. thaliana as a model for evolutionary functional genomics.

Watch 1D's performance!
The 2013 Brit Awards turned out as awesome as we expected!
Not only did a lot of our faves take home awards but Taylor Swift and One Direction get our votes for best performances of the night.
Haylor did their best to stay away from each other but that didn't stop Taylor from singing "I Knew You Were Trouble," a song some think is about Harry Styles.
Tay looked totally cute on stage and rocked like always and left with no Harry Styles drama.
As for 1D, they sang their charity sing, "One Way or Another." We aren't sure how we feel about their version of the song but still they did a good job. The guys also got the award for Global Success.

Title: Hunting with the Bow and Arrow
Author: Saxton Pope
The glory and romance of archery culminated in England before the discovery of America. There, no doubt, the bow was used to its greatest perfection, and it decided the fate of nations. The crossbow and the matchlock had supplanted the longbow when Columbus sailed for the New World.
It was, therefore, a distinct surprise to the first explorers of America that the natives used the bow and arrow so effectively. In fact, the sword and the horse, combined with the white man's superlative self−assurance, won the contest over the aborigines more than the primitive blunderbuss of the times. The bow and arrow was still more deadly than the gun.
With the gradual extermination of the American Indian, the westward march of civilization, and the improvement in firearms, this contest became more and more unequal, and the bow disappeared from the land. The last primitive Indian archer was discovered in California in the year 1911.
When the white pioneers of California descended through the northern part of that State by the Lassen trail, they met with a tribe of Indians known as the Yana, or Yahi. That is the name they called themselves. Their neighbors called them the Nozi, and the white men called them the Deer Creek or Mill Creek Indians.
Different from the other tribes of this territory, the Yana would not submit without a struggle to the white man's conquest of
