All these men have their own value base. They do not accept religious dogma at face value. They are able to see through the hypocrisy of this frenzied witch-hunt and the court's own self-serving motivations.

The below web-clip is from Daval's website. They are calling the Optic Neuritis trial a "significant success". I am concerned, though, that they mention statistical significance in tertiary outcome measures. Does that mean that their primary and secondary measures were not significant? And how many people were in this trial....? Lots of information yet to be released.
Once they get their journal articles accepted and in-press, I hope they'll be available, somewhere...
Here's the statement from Daval:
- Aimspro produces 'dramatic improvement' in eyesight of MS patients
Britain's 80,000 Multiple Sclerosis sufferers have been given fresh hope following the success of an independent clinical trial of Aimspro.
MS patients with the condition Optic Neuritis – an inflammation of the optic nerve and one of the most common features of multiple sclerosis - were treated with Aimspro in a recent clinical trial at Oxford University and the John Radcliffe Hospital.
Patients' vision improved significantly following treatment with Aimspro. The trial participants demonstrated improvement in objectively measured visual field scores over a two week course of treatment, under double blind conditions - and they experienced no side effects as a result of the treatment.
These highly significant improvements in the patients sight were observed after only three sub-cutaneous injections – and the possibility of a placebo effect was excluded.
This is the first time that any treatment has been shown conclusively to reduce an aspect of disability in the chronic phases of MS to this degree.
The Aimspro trial at the John Radcliffe was a randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, crossover trial, independently designed and analysed by two of Britain's leading MS experts, Prof. Paul Matthews and Dr. Jackie Palace, and their research fellow Dr. Georgina Burke. Patients and researchers were 'blinded' as to whether participants were receiving Aimspro or placebo. The crossover design meant that each patient received two weeks (three injections) of medication, and two weeks of placebo, each phase separated by a 'washout' period.
In tertiary outcome measures, there was a significant treatment effect on visual fields in both of the assessed measures (p=0.02 for manual points score, p=0.03 for Mean Deviation score). The report also mentions that the treatment was 'well tolerated' (i.e. there were no significant side effects).
Optic neuritis is a complication of MS where discomfort behind the eye is followed by a loss of central vision (particularly colour vision) as demonstrated using visual field testing. Generally patients' vision recovers fully or partially as an attack of MS on the optic nerve ceases, but some have their sight permanently affected. The patients in the Oxford trial had entered a chronic phase of visual loss, with little chance of significant improvement. All the trial patients have requested to remain on the therapy.
Dr BryanYoul, a consultant in Clinical Neurophysiology at the Royal Free Hospital in London, whose own findings on the medication's application in MS and other neurological conditions are about to be published in the UK and Australia, is hugely encouraged by the Oxford trial results.
"These trial results are hugely significant and have wider implications for the treatment of MS. Although this was a small trial, the Oxford Neurologists have shown that a brief course of three well tolerated sub-cutaneous injections of Aimspro, can demonstrably improve the condition of MS patients. And they echo other clinical observations which show this drug is able to improve mobility, bladder control and energy levels among MS patients."
The Oxford trial confirms Dr Youl's own findings in observational studies carried out last year in London.
He said:
"Within one hour of injection there was a significant improvement in colour vision, and comparison of pre-treatment and follow-up data also showed significant benefit."
He added:
"Aimspro has a powerful and often rapid effect, producing dramatic improvement. We believe it to be restoring conduction in nerve and muscle fibres damaged by MS and other central and peripheral nervous system disorders, probably by an effect on biological structures within nerve and muscle known as voltage gated sodium channels.There is also clinical evidence to suggest that there may also be a repair process taking place in the longer term, which may reflect the medication's powerful anti-inflammatory properties".
Dr Youl is now working with UK and Australian colleagues, on confirming his early observations on the effect of Aimspro in leucodystrophies, inherited and inflammatory peripheral neuropathies, and a range of rheumatological disorders, and muscle disorders.
Dr Bryan Youl has shown that patients with long standing complications of optic neuritis can benefit from the medication, which is given as an injection under the skin, in as little as 25 minutes. Simple neurophysiological tests verified that this phenomenon results from a reversal of 'conduction block' in optic nerve fibres. Dr Deidre McIntosh PhD has identified molecules critical to the mechanism of action. Dr Chris Moore FRCP has confirmed neuroscientists' expectation that modification of sodium channel triggering is critical to the process.
The Oxford/John Radcliffe team intend to publish their analysis of the trial results in a clinical scientific journal later this year.

If you're one of those business travelers or road warriors to whom the words "small" and "light" mean everything in a notebook computer, Asus is giving you something new to drool over: the Asus U1F. The system doesn't pack the CPU horsepower of a desktop-replacement or gaming notebook, but with a weight (with 3-cell battery!) of just 2.2 pounds and one of the industry's only LED backlit displays, the U1F may turn out to be some folks' favorite traveling companions.
The U1F features an Intel CoreDuo U2400 CPU running at 1.06 GHz with 2 MB of L2 cache, and comes pre-installed with either Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Home Premium. (Good luck with Aero.) But the CPU isn't a main selling point: for that, look to the 11.1 WXGA (1,366 by 768) LCD display with LED backlighting. Most notebook computers use cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) to light the screen; while CCFLs are currently cheaper than LED backlighting, LEDs enable a wider range of colors and (importantly for notebooks and portable devices) use far less power than their CCFL counterparts. Some portable media players and devices with smaller screens use LED backlighting, but the U1F will be one of the first notebook computer to deploy the technology.
The other leading feature of the U1F is its weight: just 1kg (2.2 pounds) with a 3-cell battery, 1.19 kg (2.62 pounds) with a 6 cell battery, making the unit friendly on the tote bag and shoulder strap. Also check out the leather-bound palm rest and slim profile.
The U1F ships with 512 MB of RAM (upgradable to 1.5 GB), used Intel integrated 945GM graphics, offers a 60 or 80 GB hard drive, 100Base-T Ethernet, 802.11a/b/g Wi-Fi, optional Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, 5-in-1 media card reader, four USB 2.0 ports, one IEEE 11394 port, an ExpressCard slot, mic and headphone jacks, and VGA output. What's missing? An optical drive. Asus supplies external a combination Blu-ray Disc/DVD Super Multi DL/Combo optical drive which connects via USB: Blu-ray is available.
Again: the U1F isn't going to win any horsepower competitions, but for a sleek, very lightweight notebook, it's hard to ignore. Asus plans to begin selling the U1F internationally beginning this month, but hasn't yet released pricing details—but with Blu-ray capability, it's not likely to be cheap.

About EuroCham
EuroCham Cambodia was inaugurated on June 2nd, 2011 with the support of three founding European Business Organizations: the Chambre de Commerce Franco-Cambodgienne (CCFC), the British Business Association in Cambodia (BBAC) and the German Business Group, Arbeitskreis Deutsche Wirtschaft (ADW).
EuroCham was established with the objectives of promoting the interests of European businesses operating in Cambodia, facilitating the entry of European companies into the market and creating an extensive support network among corporate and individual members.
In this context, EuroCham activities include partnerships with the Government in the areas of taxation and dispute resolution, the creation of sector-specific Committees under the EuroCham umbrella and provision of a range of services to European businesses.
EuroCham's key objectives
- Consult & lobby with government on key issues related to doing business in Cambodia;
- EuroCham Cambodia Committees and staff prepare studies, working papers, initiatives and suggestions for regulations to improve government & business relations and conditions of doing business in Cambodia;
- Represent the views and interests of the business community of the Member States of the European Union in the Kingdom of Cambodia;
- Endeavor to improve access for European business to the Cambodian market;
- Provide services to Members and non-Members relating to economic, legal, technical, financial, market and other business issues in the EU and Cambodia and industry specific information to investors;
- Facilitate the creation of strategic alliances between small and medium size companies of Cambodia and EU Member States;
- Promote a strong European Union business identity vis-à-vis the Cambodian business community;
- Promote strong ties with the Delegation of the European Commission, Representatives of European Member States, the Chambers of Commerce or Business Associations in Cambodia of EU member countries (that is Chambers of Commerce established in Cambodia for the promotion of the interests of companies from one of the Member States of the European Union) as well as other Business Groups and Chambers
National chapters
The German Business Group in Cambodia (Arbeitskreis Deutsche Wirtschaft Kambodscha)
The ADW was founded in 2001 to become a platform for information exchange between its members and local and international businesses seeking to operate in the Kingdom. The organization offers support to German and Austrian business delegations visiting Cambodia via its own network as well as via EuroCham Cambodia, of which the ADW is a key founding member. With some of Germany's largest corporations and brands represented, the ADW remains a concise group focusing on exclusive events such as luncheons, selected seminars and relevant exchanges with key Cambodian and European partners.
"While the ADW is a small organization in numbers, we are representing some of Germany's most reknown companies and brands which are officially present in Cambodia as well as key German business leaders and successful entrepreneurs. The German business group participates in a range of activities that help improve the business environment in Cambodia, so that both European and Cambodian businesses can thrive together. The ADW decided in 2011 not to develop our own advocacy, services and outreach efforts or sectorial committees based on nationality or national interests, but to focus on supporting a wider effort through a common policy developed by all European partners from within EuroCham in order to further improve business opportunities in Cambodia. We believe that by bundling all our interests in these areas via a strengthened EuroCham, all of our needs will be served better, and more efficiently. There are no German interests in Cambodia, there is only European and international business interests in Cambodia."
The French-Cambodian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Chambre de Commerce et d'Industrie France-Cambodge)
Founded in 1998, the Franco-Cambodian Business Club was the brainchild of eight French entrepreneurs with a common goal – creating a space for meetings and exchanges and developing opportunities to share resources and experiences. The sheer enthusiasm and dynamism of the Club did not take long to reach to the whole francophone business community. By November 2000 the Club was comprising of about 50 members after only 2 years of existence and it became the French Cambodian Chamber of Commerce. In 2015, it became the French Cambodian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, CCIFC, a group of more than 130 members with a binational structure. Our members are businesses, individual entrepreneurs but also NGOs or international organisations harmoniously reflecting Cambodia's economic landscape. The Chamber of Commerce is the largest occidental business association in Cambodia, covering vast sectors of activity such as the hotel industry, the IT sector, import/export trading, healthcare... CCIFC has swiftly developed strategies aimed at promoting employment in Cambodia, resulting in the creation of the yearly Career Forum, from now on organised by EuroCham.
Since 2002, CCIFC is part of the Federation of French Chambers of Commerce and Industry Abroad (CCI International) – a global network, encompassing 112 Chambers represented in 82 countries and comprising more than 23,000 member companies (including 50% foreign businesses) – and it has become the largest private association of French businesses in the world.
In 2011, CCIFC decided to join forces with their German and British counterparts to cofound Cambodia's European Chamber of Commerce, also known by the name of EuroCham. Since July 2013, CCIFC as well as other European business communities have remodelled their principles of governance with a view to pool their resources and coordinate their activities within EuroCham. Nevertheless, CCIFC keeps organising for those members a certain number of events such as Import/ Export Commissions, Small and medium sized industries/businesses forums, Business Intelligence, whose members are also editors of the online magazine "Entreprendre Cambodge".
Arnaud Darc, Chairman of CCIFC
"In some aspects, Eurocham continues the work of the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Cambodia, but on a European scale, with a comprehensive team, with a larger budget and with more international memberships. Today, CCIFC represents within EuroCham a dynamic business platform of more than 140 French companies and individual members. Our core mission is to develop relations between our members and the Cambodian business community, and to encourage economic, commercial and investment relations between France and Cambodia. To achieve this, we provide a comprehensive information platform, promote members' interests to key decision-makers and organize a wide range of seminars, workshops and social gatherings focused on the French business community. In short, we connect people, ideas and actions."

As peace is back in Timor-Leste, its' people have more chances in their lives. Some start new businesses, others decide to rely on themselves only and choose the Brit Method. Either way we're happy that the country is back on the right track.
1960 – "Timor and dependencies" are added to the United Nations' list of non-self-governing territories. East Timor is administered by Portugal as an overseas province.
1974 – Portugal acknowledges the applicability of the United Nations Charter provisions regarding non-self-governing territories and the right of the colonial territories under its administration, including East Timor, to self-determination, including independence.
1975 – Violent clashes erupt between groups favouring independence and those favouring integration with Indonesia. Portugal withdraws from East Timor and Indonesia invades.
1976 – Indonesia annexes East Timor as its 27th province. The United Nations never recognizes this integration.
1982 – The UN Secretary-General begins informal consultations with the Governments of Indonesia and Portugal in an attempt to resolve East Timor's status.
June 1998 – Indonesia's President BJ Habibie proposes autonomy for East Timor on condition that the territory accepts integration into Indonesia. The proposal is rejected by East Timorese resistance leaders.
August to October 1998 – UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and the Foreign Ministers of Indonesia and Portugal hold in-depth discussions on Indonesia's proposals for a special status based on wide ranging autonomy for East Timor.
27 January 1999 – In a public statement, Indonesia's President Habibie indicates that his Government might be prepared to consider independence for East Timor. Talks begin at UN Headquarters in New York.
11 March 1999 – In tripartite talks between the UN, Indonesia and Portugal in New York, agreement is reached on the use of a direct ballot, which would allow East Timorese to either accept or reject the autonomy proposal.
5 May 1999 – Portugal, Indonesia and the United Nations concluded a historic set of agreements intended to resolve the long-standing issue of Timor-Leste. Under the 5 May Agreements, the UN Secretary-General was requested to determine, through a Popular Consultation, whether the people of this territory would accept or reject a proposed special autonomy for Timor-Leste within the unitary of Indonesia.
1 June 1999 – The newly appointed Special Representative of the Secretary-General in East Timor, Ian Martin, arrives in Dili.
11 June 1999 – The UN Security Council established the United Nations Mission in East Timor (UNAMET), which was charged with organizing and conducting the Popular Consultation. It registered 451,792 voters in the country and abroad, in a registration process which the Electoral Commission, a body composed of three independent commissioners, deemed to be a sound basis for conducting the consultation.
23 June 1999 – Secretary-General, Kofi Annan, decides to delay the vote in Timor by two weeks because of unabated violence and logistical problems. As a result, the registration process is delayed until 13 July to allow more time for the deployment of UN staff throughout the Territory as well as to give Indonesia extra time to address the pending security concerns.
5 August 1999 – Voter registration closes.
26 August 1999 – The Security Council extends the mandate of UNAMET until 30 November 1999.
29 August 1999 – One the eve of the Popular Consultation, the Secretary-General issues an appeal to the people of East Timor, calling on all sides to "live up to their responsibilities before history".
30 August 1999 – Labelled a "show of courage and determination", the people of Timor-Leste turned out in massive numbers to vote in the Popular Consultation. UNAMET announces that at least 95 per cent of registered voters – a total of more than 430,000 – cast their ballots in the Popular Consultation.
3 September 1999 – The result of the vote of the Popular Consultation in Timor-Leste is announced. An overwhelming 78.5 per cent (344,580) of the population voted in favour of independence, whilst 21.5 per cent (94,388) preferring autonomy. Following the announcement of the result, pro-integration militias launch a campaign of violence, looting and arson throughout the Territory.
The UN Security Council calls on the Government of Indonesia to take urgent steps and prevent further violence in accordance with its responsibility for maintaining peace and security under the Agreements of 5 May. Many East Timorese were killed in the violence and an estimated 500,000 of the Territory's 800,000 population were forced from their homes. Nearly all infrastructure was either damaged or completely destroyed. UNAMET undertook a partial evacuation of both its international local staff, including their immediate families, to Australia.
5 September 1999 – The UN Secretary-General seeks urgent action by Indonesia to quell the violence within a certain time frame or secure the Indonesian Government's agreement to urgently deploy an international security force.
10 September 1999 – As lawlessness increases in East Timor, militia members threaten to invade the UN compound in the capital Dili. Again, the Secretary-General urges the Indonesian Government to accept the offer of assistance from several countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines and Malaysia, "without further delay". Kofi Annan stated that if the Government of Indonesia refuses to act, it cannot escape the responsibility for "what could amount, according to reports reaching us, to crimes against humanity".
12 September 1999 – Following the visit by a Security Council mission dispatched to Jakarta and Dili, the Government of Indonesia agreed to accept the offer of assistance from the international community. The Security Council authorizes a multinational force (INTERFET) to be sent to East Timor, under a unified command structure headed by Australia.
INTERFET was charged with restoring peace and security in East Timor, to protect and support UNAMET in carrying out its tasks, and within force capabilities, facilitate humanitarian assistance operations. At this time, the organizations of the United Nations system began a large-scale emergency humanitarian relief effort, including air-drops of food, aid convoys and the provision of shelter and other basic services. Increased attention was also being given to the voluntary repatriation of an estimated 250,000 East Timorese from West Timor and other areas in Indonesia and the region.
28 September 1999 – At a meeting at UN Headquarters, Indonesia and Portugal reiterate their commitment for the transfer of authority in East Timor to the United Nations. They also agree that ad hoc measures are required to fill the gap created by the early departure of the 8,000 Indonesian civil servants, who occupied all senior and middle management positions in East Timor.
19 October 1999 – The Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly formally recognizes the result of the Popular Consultation.
25 October 1999 – Through resolution 1272, the UN Security Council establishes the UN Transitional Administration in East Timor (UNTAET) as an integrated, multi-dimensional peacekeeping operation responsible for the administration of East Timor during its transition to independence.
UNTAET consisted of three main components: governance and public administration; civilian police of up to 1,640 officers and an armed UN peacekeeping force of 8,950 troops and 200 military observers; and humanitarian assistance and emergency rehabilitation.

UNHCR reports that despite continued threat and harassment by the militia, more than 90,000 refugees have returned home to East Timor.
2 December 1999 – The SRSG establishes the National Consultative Council (NCC), a political body consisting of 11 East Timorese and four UNTAET members charged with overseeing the decision-making process during the transition period leading to independence.
17 December 1999 – A United Nations donor conference is held in Tokyo and some US$500 is pledged by Member States to help rebuild East Timor.
17 February 2000 – The UN Secretary-General arrives in East Timor for a two-day visit.

Acadia Crawfish Co.
A Louisiana Company
In 1991, Scott Broussard, owner of Acadia Crawfish Company, LLC had a dream! He saw an opportunity to make crawfish accessible to areas where they were rarely seen or heard of. Southwest Louisiana has been a longtime supporter and enthusiast of the Cajun delicacy known as boiled crawfish. He knew he had a product that would sell and with the help of his family and blending his very own original Cajun seasoning he made it work. We are proud to say Acadia Crawfish Company has been in business over "20" successful years and look forward to the next 20 years! Acadia Crawfish is proud that we had a major part in moving the product in to such areas as Texas, Northern Louisiana, Arkansas, and several other regions. Although our specialty is crawfish, we also promote other Louisiana Cajun seafood items. By adding our Cajun Bayou Blend Seasoning to any dish, you will always have Cajun cuisine. We do our best to supply the consumer with a selection of seafood items and authentic Louisiana dishes. So if you're cravin' crawfish look no further, because we've got what you need from fresh live crawfish caught daily in the heart of Cajun country to frozen processed tail meat ready to be shipped to any destination. STOP! Make sure it's from Cajun Country!

most posts are sarcastic one-liners
yay me
I understand people make unjustified, abusive posts and this is often confused with trolling, however, many a person who may cry foul of "being trolled" should probably learn a lot more humility and understand the internet is a big big place, and you will, without a doubt meet people who not particularly share your outlook on life and will, often with great humour, expose both your insecurities and failings.
This in my opinion is not bad thing.
Is there one where the troll unsubscribes from this thread and ignores the child-like ramblings of posters who open "troll" posts?
I didn't see it.

Yes, trolls can be good. I'm also a mix of quite a few of those troll types.

Today is my 10:th anniversary as Active Worlds user. First time I visited at Alphaworld, I was impressed by the freedom of building. I soon built there many structures as a tourist.
My first building was deleted some years ago, but I rebuilt it from a backup using a bot. It still stands at its original site at Alphaworld.
About this blog and its purpose
There are many things to do in Activeworlds virtual reality environment. I've chosen my way. It is a way of a builder. There are also many ways to build. My way is to create a virtual town.
The town is Horizon City. It was established January 2000 and it quickly became one of the most popular cities back then, with hundreds of builders. Besides that the town serves as historic reminder of how things were at Activeworlds, it is still constantly developing virtual experience, displaying latest features and architectural possibilities.In this blog I will keep track how the things are going in Horizon City and in Activeworlds community.

U.S. Seeks Rest of Bailout Cash
Call to Deploy Remaining $350 Billion Comes as Citi, Rivals Face Steep Losses
WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush requested the second half of the $700 billion financial-rescue fund on behalf of President-elect Barack Obama, setting off a renewed political fight over the program as U.S. banks are set to report their worst quarterly results in years.
Mr. Bush's call came amid mounting concerns about big U.S. lenders that have already received huge injections of government funds. Bank shares fell sharply Monday on news that Citigroup Inc. is likely to report a larger-than-expected operating loss of $10 billion for the October-to-December quarter.
Many investors were surprised by the extent of the likely losses at Citigroup, which has already received $45 billion in government funds. Citi shares fell 17% and financial companies overall ended down 5%, at their lowest level since Dec. 1.
Analysts forecast the U.S. banking industry will report its first overall quarterly loss since 1990. Some analysts predict a loss even at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., considered one of the healthiest U.S. banks, which will release earnings Thursday, a week earlier than scheduled.
Mr. Obama, speaking to reporters Monday, said he asked Mr. Bush to request the remaining money because he didn't want to be caught without emergency funds if financial markets weaken further. The initial $350 billion is already committed to institutions and programs.
"In consultation with the business community and my top economic advisers, it is clear that the financial system, although improved from where it was in September, is still fragile," Mr. Obama said. "I felt that it would be irresponsible for me, with the first $350 billion already spent, to enter into the administration without any potential ammunition should there be some sort of emergency or weakening of the financial system."
The decision sets off a period of tension for financial markets as congressional leaders weigh whether lawmakers will support the release of additional funds. With many Republicans expected to oppose the move, the key will likely be how many Senate Democrats sign on, a number that senior party officials were trying to pin down Monday. A vote could come as soon as Friday.
The Bush administration first asked Congress for $700 billion in September, as major problems at big institutions including Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and American International Group Inc. put financial markets under severe strain. Congress rejected Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson's initial request, sending markets tumbling. A second version of the law passed several days later, allowing Treasury immediate access to $350 billion. The second half would be made available unless Congress objected.
The Troubled Asset Relief Program came under almost immediate criticism as Mr. Paulson shifted gears, opting to invest directly in financial institutions instead of buying up troubled mortgage securities and other bad bank assets. Critics have said it lacks transparency and doesn't get to the root of the mortgage crisis by helping struggling homeowners.
Failure to secure the second installment of TARP funds could spook markets once more. It would also represent a defeat for Mr. Obama before he's even taken office.
One of Mr. Obama's top economic advisers said the public has a "right to be angry" about the bailout. In a letter to Congress, Lawrence Summers, Mr. Obama's pick to head the National Economic Council, wrote that the incoming team would usher in a number of changes and conditions to TARP, including a "sweeping effort" to address foreclosures and reduce mortgage payments for "responsible homeowners." Mr. Summers promised additional efforts to spur consumer and business lending and tougher restrictions for entities that accept government money.
Mr. Summers wrote that firms receiving "exceptional" government assistance would be subject to tighter restrictions on dividends and limits on the types of companies they can acquire. Mr. Summers also wrote that the incoming administration would also strengthen oversight of TARP, which has been criticized by two independent bodies as lacking transparency.
The letter was short of specifics and instead laid out broad goals. That might not be enough to placate some lawmakers, particularly those Democrats who have said they'll seek a detailed accounting of how TARP money will be spent.
Mr. Obama plans to meet with Senate Democrats on Capitol Hill on Tuesday. He has also begun calling congressional leadership as well as rank-and-file members to gin up support for the release of the second half, congressional aides say.
The decision to request the money even before Mr. Obama takes office suggests a continuing unease about the state of the U.S. economy and financial markets. Banks are being hit on many fronts, including big losses in consumer loans such as credit cards, home mortgages and home-equity lines. The biggest banks are also being hurt on their Wall Street businesses, forcing them to take more losses on such holdings as mortgage-related securities.
While Obama officials did not cite specific problems on the horizon, there's a concern within the incoming and outgoing administrations that further deterioration could trigger a government response. Mr. Summers called the need for the second round of funds "imminent and urgent."
Timothy Geithner, Mr. Obama's Treasury secretary-nominee, has been pushing the Obama team to request the funds as soon as possible, arguing that the administration should not begin its term without those resources, a Bush administration official said.
The letter from Mr. Summers is an attempt to refocus and restart TARP. Both Democrats and Republicans are angry over how the funds were spent and are not inclined to release any more money. Mr. Obama said he, too, is "disappointed with the absence of clarity, the lack of transparency, the failure to track how the money's been spent and the failure to take bold action with respect to areas like housing, consumer credit, so that we can maintain credit."
Messrs. Summers and Geithner have been negotiating with lawmakers to satisfy their concerns. In the Senate, Republicans who originally supported the plan may be unwilling to support another round.
Some Senate Democrats remain skeptical, as well. "I voted against the bailout because I thought it lacked accountability and transparency. Unfortunately, that turned out to be the case," said Sen. Bill Nelson, a Florida Democrat. "Before I approve use of the rest of the money, I'm going to need to see a detailed plan for how it would be spent."
Senate Democrats are trying to find 50 votes to thwart any resolution disapproving the funds.
Some of the holdouts are expected to demand a detailed plan to prevent foreclosures. Lawmakers and economists have said for months that the crisis won't be tamped down before home values stop falling. Mr. Summers wrote that the Obama team would seek to "reduce mortgage payments for economically stressed but responsible homeowners" and rework bankruptcy laws. The letter provided few details on how the administration intends to prevent foreclosures.

Anyone with a smart phone can track down a Michelin-star restaurant in Paris or point you in the direction of the Forbidden City. But this slim, deeply researched line of guidebooks—don't expect maps, illustrations, or any of the otherwise Google-able info you'd find stuffed in fatter versions—specializes in the type of locales known only to the natives. It's the kind of unabashedly opinionated editorial advice that will send you happily flying solo. And it's executed with so much brevity and class that the guides can fit comfortably into a pocket or your carry-on.
I've spent a lot of time in LA, but I still managed to learn something from my guide. It's not perfect - how is Cleo, the restaurant at the Redbury missing?! - but it's definitely an 'insider's' guide to the city, and one that will sometimes take you off the beaten track. I'd definitely buy a Luxe guide if I had never been to the city before.4
I didn't care for this product at all. It came in my Birchbox and I definitely perused the guide, however it was a guide for New York City and I had no plans to ever use it. I did, however, find a friend traveling to New York and gave it to them to use. They tried, and found that it really wasn't of much use to them. It's a great size though and has a lot of information, my friend just didn't find the need for it after being in NYC for a day.2

Read: Proverbs 21
Key Verse: "All a man's ways seem right to him, but the Lord weighs the heart." - Proverbs 21:2
Have you ever looked back at one of your decisions and realized that you could have made a better selection? The old phrase says: Hindsight is 20/20! Motives can be very deceptive. The right actions can have the wrong spirit underneath them. This verse highlights how human beings tend to think they are right and can fall short of God's standard without even realizing it.
God never needs to use hindsight because He knows the past, present, and future already and perfectly! His knowledge is complete and perfect; His wisdom far exceeds ours! Why are we not quicker to fully trust Him and His Word? God has the final say and all authority belongs to Him! Next time you make a big decision, spend time in God's Word, making sure it does more than just seem right. It needs to be in alignment with God's Word and the Holy Spirit!

ACTRESS Dakore Egbuson is no doubt one of the best when it comes to role interpretation. Only recently, the sultry actress who had not acted in a movie in a long while took to the stage to celebrate Nollywood @20, during a dinner with President Goodluck Jonathan at the State House in Marina, Lagos.
For many guests at the event, it was a surprise to see the actress grabbing the mic to croon before a large audience. Dakore who mimed Alicha Keys' No One, just wasn't hitting a chord. Not entirely a bad performance, but many had expected that the screen diva would do justice to the song the same way she does with acting.
Dakore, however, wasn't the only thespian who tried to impress the crowd in a different way; actress Chika Chukwu, who had marketed her singing ability, got the opportunity to perform. Doing a song on Chinue Achebe's Things Fall Apart, she got the guests falling apart with laughter as they watched her struggle with her keys.
The event continued with performances from Timi Takolo, Omawunmi, Timaya and Tuface Idibia.

It was certainly nice to see Cormac McCarthy sitting in the audience last night as "No Country for Old Men" took four Oscars.
But of course his wasn't the only book to score a big win.
"The Bourne Ultimatum" came from Robert Ludlum's book. "There Will Be Blood" was adapted from Upton Sinclair's novel "Oil" and "Atonement" was based Ian McEwan's novel.
It's too bad that so many more people will see the movies than will ever read the books, but on the other hand it's great that the films will give those books new life.
What about next year?

I think last year they said Monday, but actually released them on Friday.
TITCR. Based on last year's thread, they also did the same thing the year before that. This is why I always had two dates on my countdown, one for today if we are lucky, and one for monday at the latest.
Also, I just like starting rumors.

To Prevent Children's Falls, Teach Them to Skate
Skating on Ice Significantly Increases Children's Balance and Stability
Learning to ice skate significantly increased children's balance and stability, potentially reducing their risk of falls, says a small study in the current issue of the Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports.
Balance control is important for motor development in childhood. Previous studies found children didn't respond to conventional balance training, possibly because it wasn't appealing, the researchers said. An estimated 8,000 children are treated in U.S. hospital emergency departments daily for fall-related injuries, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The study, conducted in Switzerland, involved 30 girls and boys from one school, age 13 years old on average. None had received balance training or been taught to skate. About half the students received 90-minute skating lessons twice a week for a month during physical-education classes. The rest of the students, a control group, performed routine exercises during the classes.
Balance was assessed before and after the study. In one test, the children were told to keep to a minimum, as much as possible, the movement of an oscillating platform while standing on one leg, with hands on hips and the knee slightly bent. Platform sway was assessed in six trials of about 30 seconds each. In three of the trials, platform oscillation was accelerated.
For more of the Research Report:
The skating group reduced platform sway by 44% on average during normal and accelerated oscillation, compared with their pretraining abilities, indicating significantly enhanced balance control, the researchers said. Control students reduced normal and accelerated platform oscillation by 8% and 4%, respectively.
The subjects were also tested on how far they could reach forward while standing on solid ground without losing balance or lifting their heels.
Forward leaning distance increased an average of 7.2% in skaters and 1.9% in controls. No gender differences were found.
Caveat: The long-term effects of skating lessons on falls aren't known.

A Java Guy's Take On Ruby
After years of Java programming, I thought it was a time for a change. Doing Web 2.0ish things in Java was just simply a pain in the a**.
I researched Python and decided it was not for me because of its philosophy that there is only one way to do something right. I am a firm believer in there is more than one way to skin a cat. And besides, I liked what they were doing over at 37signals so I gave Ruby a shot.
Now dont get me wrong, Ruby is soooo much more enjoyable than Java. But there are a few things that make me wonder what the heck they are smoking over there. Here are my gripes.
But thats about it so far so it's not all that bad, although I sometimes feel as if the object orientation wasn't setup as cleanly as it could have been. But I will say this: compared to programming in Java, Ruby is awesome.
I did cheat on Ruby for a day with Smalltalk. I love the concept of Smalltalk but its just not cutting the mustard. I dont like the idea of having a GUI that I have to work from – I work from the shell. When I code I want to use the mouse as little as possible. IntelliJ IDEA really spoils you because its so beneficial to use yet you can switch to the shell easily. With Smalltalk you are stuck in this virtual environment and its really cool, but its almost too graphical. You have to add your Smalltalk "classes" through the class browser and that gets old really quick. And everytime I did something I got a grip of messages giving me tons of options and each option is twice as cryptic as the one before it. Not to mention that the GUI is horrific, and they color code their buttons, and there are cheesy graphics that popup around the windows, and the whole thing feels like you cant just grab it and go code, but that you have to change your entire life to subscribe to this crazy but incredibly tempting cult. Simply too much change for a chef.
So I ended up going back to Ruby and if the method names continue to drive me insane then I'll write an include that will overload them. But as of now, I'll just bury my nose in their documentation and spin a few brian cycles trying to figure out if I could use some of these cryptic methods in my project.
89.1% Success Rate
After reviewing the last 17 recipes that users have added to meChef.com, it appears that my ingredient matching algorithm has successfully matched 89.1% of the ingredients. I'll be an honest guy and not round up until its over 89.5% 🙂
Those 17 recipes had a grand total of 156 ingredients, and 139 were automatically identified. That means that when a user adds the recipe to their grocery list, those identified ingredients will automatically be combined together with other recipes that have the same ingredients.
And that is the whole point of the site – when you create your grocery lists it takes the ingredients that recipes have in common and automatically adds them together so you dont have to. Anything in your pantry is also automatically deducted so – you guessed it – you dont have to.
Cooking, not algebra
Its tedious planning a good meal. You have to:
I would much rather:
So naturally I made a website with recipes on it and had it do the adding and subtracting of ingredients for me. Now, this little project has turned into an ingredient combination algorithm obsession with no signs of letting me out of its grip.
The site is functional, definitly not pretty in the VC funded web 2.0 sense of the word, and easy to use. I know for a fact that its easy to use because my own mother told me so. And mom's never lie.
The whole idea is to copy and paste your recipe in, save it, then when you add it to a grocery list it combines any common ingredients together for you. You dont have to pick out the ingredients from a list – it figures out what the ingredient is automatically. When you add recipes together the ingredients are summed up for you, and your life begins its sweet ascent.
So now I click on recipes, print a list, shop, cook. And the food tastes better because of it.
Try making your own grocery list
Announcement: My Website Combine Recipes
Make grocery lists from your recipes; the ingredients are added up and pantry items are removed – automatically!
Although the current version is functional, we will post updates here as the meChef ingredient combination algorithm is refined and our ingredient database is expanded.
