Heathrow Airport Third Runway: now watch how the Greenazis get (really really) nasty from now on.
They will. I bet you 3p.
David Davis
Guido has a pretty model doing her stuff (actually I think this is the better link) (so do we sometimes here) called Babz something or other, and who is supporting the plan.
The only thing Libertarians ought to be concerned about here is the property rights of the people – and there will be a number, inevitably – whose homes and land will be taken and who will have to be displaced. This is the only issue of importance.
All that the Greenazis are concerned about is that Britain, a land which they hate and want dead, for showing the up to be the hideous and obscene people-murderers which they are and have always been, should not be able to profit from what the next century's people will all want to do.
I expect Tony Hollick will oppose me in the comments, on some jurisprudential pretext or other….if you do not, Tony, I take it all back!
The problem of London is that it's in the probably least-bad place it could be. Imagine if it was in Birmingham, or Liverpool. Geography, mountains and landforms would be against it. Then imagine a slightly less police-statist Britain emerging from the recession.
The next problem is where do you put the seven or eight or ten airports that, Al Gore's demise willing, it will need. If not that many, then which ones do you expand?
The only issue we should worry about is property rights. And that does NOT include "film" "stars" and "pop" "singers" who abuse the notion of personal property on purpse, because the MSM will let them get away with it, and they can afford expensive (lefty) lawyers. (Why are most lawyers socialists? Discuss.)

The dynasty Obrenovic which won Serbian independence from the Ottoman empire in 1830, and elevated the status of Serbia to an internationally recognized kingdom in 1882, ended tragically in 1903 by a murder of the last ruling couple, Alexander and Draga. Serbian throne was inherited by a dynasty Karadjordjevic, which exists to the present day, while the genealogy of Obrenovics' is totally extinct. It is widely held that one of the main reasons for such outcome was a scandalous decision of the young king Alexander to marry a widow without noble origins, 12 years older than himself and suffering from sterility issues. As a result, the queen Draga is memorized as a treacherous and evil woman, and King Alexander as unfit and featherbrained. The truth is, as it's often the case, much more complicated.
The queen, born as Draga Lunjevica, belonged to a family with strong connections to the progenitor of the Obrenovic genealogy, knez Milos. Lunjevicas helped the Second Serbian Uprising (1815-1817) led by Milos and mediated in marriage between him and kneginja Ljubica. Draga Lunjevica was very proud of her origin and was raised in a national spirit, with the belief that female children should be educated too. She was sent, along with her sisters, from native Gornji Milanoviac to Belgrade, where she learned four languages and several other subjects in the only high school for girls. She was talented for literary work and wrote short stories. At the library she soon meet her first love, Bogdan Popovic, who was to become the greatest literary critic and essayist of that time. However, her parents arranged another marriage, and as a 17 years old girl, she became a wife to 32 old mining engineer Svetozar Masin, of strange temper and prone to alcoholism. After only three years of their marriage, Svetozar died from a heart attack in a drunken state, and Draga fell into poverty. With a very modest pension, she rarely left home. She wrote and translated for newspapers in order to get some extra money and also help her younger sisters, who were underage for marriage. Although later accounts describe her as a promiscuous widow receiving gifts in exchange for love, the truth is that she soon became a lady-in-waiting of the Serbian Queen Natalie, which could have never happened were Draga a compromised woman. On the contrary, Queen Natalie knew of her literary work and heard many recommendations from the "best houses" before she decided to take Draga on her joruney into exile, which had befallen this Queen after the divorce from the Serbian King Milan Obrenovic.
After this divorce, which happened in 1889, King Milan abdicated and left the only child he had with Natalie, young Alexander (aged 13), to rule under regency, until he reaches maturity. Both parents leaving him, Alexander grew up as a strange and cautious boy, trying to emancipate himself from the quarrels his parents conducted through relations with him. In seventeen years of age he dismissed the regency, proclaimed himself an adult, and started ruling alone. Records say that he had very good education and mastered all high society manners, but was still clumsy with women, which worried his father. In 1895, when he was visiting the French abode of his mother, Biaritz palace, Alexander met Draga for the first time. Her modesty, eloquence and beauty enchanted him. Ne never stopped courting her for two years, after which she finally succumbed to his affection. It is clear from the correspondence, that Queen Natalie did not oppose this affair of her son. On the contrary, she wanted Alexander to be taught in "the art of love" by a woman who, being a widow, was not obliged to anyone. However, when the affection that the young king felt for Draga was noticed in still wider and wider circles, Draga fell into disfavor and lost the position of a lady-in-waiting. Returning to Belgrade in 1897, Draga became an official mistress of King Alexander, which again did not make a big fuss, because it was believed to be only an affair. However, private letters show that the two of them had very elaborated relationship and that Draga was the only person Alexander confided in. She gave him a feeling of family care and the warmth of home, which he never really experienced. He even asked her for political advices and invited her to meetings and balls of the highest order. Although many attempts to of a decent marriage arrangement which will connect Alexander to some of the influential European courts were not opposed by the young King, he did not show genuine interest in any of the possible queens. This is when the official circles as well as the diplomatic corps became worried about his relationship to Draga Masin. They started plotting to separate them, and attempted to convince the King that Draga is unworthy and immoral. Nothing helped, and in 1899 their relationship was stronger than ever. Draga became the target of gossips, intrigues and even public scandals, which she stoically endured. In 1900, contrary to all wishes of his parents, most of the politicians and a good part of Serbs, King Alexander declared his engagement to Draga Masin, born Lunjevica. This scandal was soon calmed by underlining that Alexander wanted the Queen of Serbian origin, from a well-known family connected to the Second Uprising, and an Orthodox believer. The godfather at the wedding was the Russian Tsar Nicholai II, who did not, however, appear in person. Alexander proclaimed amnesties for political prisoners and turned the foreign policy towards Russia, ending the traditional Austrophile directions led by his father Milan. With all those measures, people were mostly ready to accept Draga as a new Queen. Bu the army and the nobility could not digest her low rank and her age. They also strongly opposed Draga's attempts to popularize her own family, which king Alexander readily supported, not having the family abode of his own. The climax of dissatisfaction was Draga's false pregnancy, which occurred in 1901, erroneously diagnosed by a French doctor. After it turned out that there is no gravidity, a great wave of disappointment and rage swiped through the population and Draga's rating as a Queen was lower than ever. High army officials and opponents of the dynasty used the moment to start preparing the assassination, but almost two years passed from the idea to the realization. The false pregnancy did not affect the love of Alexander and Draga, and King planned to send his queen to foreign hospital treatments, obsessed with the idea that they should have an offspring. They never really had time to work on it.
In May 1903, King Alexander and Queen Draga were gunned down, mutilated and thrown out the window from the second floor of their Belgrade court. Although not all of their governing was prudent and popular, this barbaric act was unanimously condemned by all the European public. Some of the countries such as Great Britain, suspended all the diplomatic relations with Serbia for several years. Obrenovic dynasty was substituted by Karadjordjevic dynasty and the international reputation of Serbia gradually improved. However, reputation of Alexander and Draga among the people stayed very negative until the present day. Only recent scholarship slowly uncovers more delicate elements of their story, which shows how strong was the nature of their love and how complex their situation really was.

Creating space for transformative conversations
Spur Vancouver: This City in Seven Years, My Greenest City, May 22
The City of Vancouver has set a bold goal for itself: to be the world's greenest city by 2020. But while the metrics for what make a city livable—public transportation, access to quality education, cultural amenities—are easy to come by, what makes a city green is a little less clear. Sure, the number of green jobs and bike lanes are factors, but pollution travels, so what does that mean for "city limits"? Can clean tech truly balance resource extraction? What is the role of the city as producer versus the city as consumer?
In Spur Vancouver's opening event moderated by David Beers, speakers each make the case for their vision of what it means not just to be green, but the greenest city in the world.
Join SFU Public Square, in partnership with Spur and The Tyee, for a talk on what it's going to take to make Vancouver the resilient city.
When: Thursday, May 22, 2014
Time: 7:00pm
Location: SFU Goldcorp Centre for the Arts, 149 W Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, Djavad Mowafaghian Cinema

Ai no Shintairiku is a quirky little romance manga by Yamada Nari, following Nikotama
Souhei Sara, a cutesy male-to-female transsexual who, much to her mother's frustration, has decided to attend her new school as a girl. On the crowded train heading to her new school, she finds herself standing next to Naruse Kaito, a popular boy at her school for whom she instantly falls for. However, while shuffling up to him in the crowd, she winds up nearly outing herself. After dodging that bullet and getting to school, Sara finds that she's in the same class as Naruse, but after trying to get to know him, is announced to be a boy by the horrifying, gorilla-like teacher.
What follows is a fluffy and light-hearted, if fairly generic, Shoujo series in which Sara works to get Kaito to love her for who she is, tries to bring confidence to girl who's worried about her masculine appearance, and fends off the jealous popular girls. Well, that, as well as ruining her poor, hideous teacher's life.
Ai no Shintairiku was published in 2004 and runs six chapters long. It is currently not licensed anywhere outside Japan.
This series provides examples of:
- Beach Episode: Chapter 4.
- Beautiful All Along: Youga.
- Bifauxnen: Youga, much to her dismay.
- Genki Girl: Sara. Oh god, Sara.
- Gonk: Sara's teacher.
- Larynx Dissonance: Sara. In one scene she yells at an annoying man, and it seems she goes back to her boy voice which then freaks him out.
- Love Bubbles: And flowers. And stars. And hearts. Yamada Nari really abused the effects.
- Transsexual: Sara, as well as a woman in chapter 4.
- Unsettling Gender Reveal: Naruse accidently feels up on Sara's bulge in a packed train. There's also Sara's classmates when their teacher reveals Sara's biological sex.
- Wouldn't Hit a Girl: Sara doesn't want to get revenge on a female antagonist because she still has a guy-body and it "wouldn't be fair". She then says that she'll have to wait until she's a "real girl".

n WITH KRISTEN A. McINTYRE
Modem Testing
QI am trying to repair some old 300 baud modems from the late '70s/early '80s, and I need to connect a phone line to verify that hey are working properly. The problem is that
everything is now digital. Do you know what the off-the-hook and ring voltages were for 'Ma Bell' for that time?
I have a function generator and a good AC/DC power
supply. Can you show/tell me a quick way to set up a test
circuit to simulate these two voltages?
David Milsop
Kingwood, TX
ABelieve it not, I still have a Plain Old Telephone Service (or POTS) pair coming into my home. It's for emergencies when other things might be down. I do understand what you're saying
about the local phone companies phasing out good
old loop-start POTS service. It's becoming less and less
economical for the telephone companies to maintain those
wires for the price that they charge. In addition, they can
make a lot more by running DSL on the pair, or instead
removing them completely to be replaced by fiber optic
cables that can carry high speed data.
The type of signaling on POTS lines is generally called
loop start. In a loop start system, there is a moderate open
circuit voltage on the pair coming in from the telephone
company's central office. In the US, nominally that's 48
VDC. The two signals are called tip and ring, for historical
reasons (think about a 1/4" phone plug like an operator
used to use). Tip is the positive terminal and ring is the
negative terminal. The loop is powered by a current source,
with the nominal voltage being the upper limit of the
current source's voltage.
Figure 1 shows an example of just the basic loop
current source with a nominal current of 30 mA. That
might or might not get something going. Ring voltage is
usually a sine wave of 20 Hz at 90V. Be careful, it bites!
With the basic electrical characteristics established, we
have to start thinking about what other signals a modem
might be looking for on the line. For example, most
modems look for dial tone. Again in the US, dial tone is
established by mixing a 350 Hz signal with a 440 Hz signal.
This forms a 90 Hz beat tone. The level is not entirely clear
to me, but a little experimentation would probably help
find the right amplitude. Ringback tone might or might not
be needed, as long as the other side picks up. US ringback
tone is 440 Hz mixed with 480 Hz, and that is modulated
at two seconds on and four seconds off.
To build a device to simulate all of these conditions
would be a bit of work. It could be done with some
additional analog circuitry and probably an Arduino or
Raspberry Pi to handle timing and sequencing. Designing
such a device is beyond the scope of this column, but it's
certainly doable. There are telephone line simulators out
there like the Teltone TLS- 4, but they're quite expensive.
An easier way to go might be to make up a small
analog PBX using Asterisk ( www.asterisk.org), which I've
mentioned here before. Unfortunately, analog line cards
for Asterisk are quite expensive. Perhaps the cheapest
alternative to building something would be the Cisco
SPA2102 VoIP phone adapter with router. This device has
two POTS ports on it with full signaling support, I would
guess. It expects a SIP server, however.
It might be possible to get two numbers cheaply on
one of the many SIP servers on the Internet and have those
call each other. I'm not sure if you could build a SIP server
yourself to just utilize two fake phone numbers. It sounds
like it might be possible, but without looking into the

Projects in Mauritius and Rwanda aim to alleviate poverty through renewable energy
The Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD), in partnership with the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), has allocated $25m in ADFD concessional loans for two solar photovoltaic projects in Mauritius and Rwanda.
Both projects are part of IRENA/ADFD Project Facility, a seven-year, $350m plan set up in 2013 to give low-cost capital to developing countries for renewable energy projects.
Adnan Z. Amin, director-general of IRENA, said: "For developing countries, renewable energy is a triple win: It offers a cost-effective means of supplying electricity to families, fuels economic growth, and supports energy independence and security. However, many developing countries have trouble accessing funding for renewable energy projects. Our continued partnership with ADFD will provide a stable, low-cost source of financing to help Mauritius and Rwanda achieve a sustainable energy future."
His Excellency Mohammed Saif Al Suwaidi, Director General of ADFD, added: "At ADFD, we believe that through the large-scale promotion of renewable energy projects in countries with immense clean energy potential, we can contribute to long-term economic prosperity across the word. We are confident that the latest projects selected for funding in Mauritius and Rwanda will deliver sizeable benefits for the local communities."
In Mauritius, the installation of solar PV systems on the rooftops of 10,000 households will contribute to the government's target of a 35 percent contribution of renewables to the national energy mix by 2025.
In Rwanda, 500,000 off-grid solar PV home systems are expected to improve electricity access for 2.5 million people in rural communities and create more than 2,000 local jobs.

Repressed Memory Versus False Memory - Going To Court
eileen franklin terr memories
Suing Alleged Abusers
According to the False Memory Syndrome Foundation (FMSF), between 1983 and 1998 many individuals who had "recovered" memories of childhood sexual abuse sued their alleged abusers, many at the instigation of their therapists. During those years a total of 589 lawsuits based on repressed memory were filed, of which 506 were civil and 83 were criminal. Following a sharp rise in 1992, the year the FMSF was created, the number of lawsuits dropped rapidly after 1994.
While the courts readily accepted some early cases of child sexual abuse, courts in more and more states are becoming increasingly suspicious of accounts of outrageous abuse. Therapists are being held liable for malpractice not only by their patients, but often by third parties (usually the accused parents of someone who has allegedly recovered memories of sexual abuse).
The Case of Eileen Franklin
In 1990 George Franklin was convicted of killing his daughter Eileen's friend twenty years earlier. Eileen claimed to have recovered memories of her father's murderous act as she was gazing into her own daughter's eyes. She told her secret to her therapist. She then told police she suddenly remembered herself as a nine-year-old watching her father kill her friend. Later on Eileen changed her account of how she recalled the murder, at one point telling police that the details of the killing became clearer to her after she underwent therapy.
Lenore Terr was an influential expert witness at this first criminal trial in the United States involving recovered memory. Terr, who supports the idea of repressed memory, later wrote about Eileen's story in the book Unchained Memories: True Stories of Traumatic Memories, Lost and Found (New York, NY: Basic Books, 1994).
Harry MacLean, who reported on the case in his book Once upon a Time: A True Story of Memory, Murder, and the Law (New York, NY: HarperCollins, 1993), claimed that Professor Terr had repeatedly distorted the facts to suit her purpose. Terr claimed to offer a dramatic proof of Eileen's truthful testimony when she described the "body memory" (a physical manifestation of trauma that the conscious mind has forgotten) of Eileen's repressed trauma. According to Terr, Eileen had a habit of pulling her hair out, resulting in a balding spot on her scalp. Eileen had allegedly seen her father murder her friend with a blow to the head using a large rock.
According to MacLean, in his interviews with Eileen's mother, sisters, school friends, and teachers, no one could remember Eileen's pulling out her hair or having a bleeding spot on her scalp. Dr. Ofshe and Ethan Watters (Making Monsters: False Memories, Psychotherapy, and Sexual Hysteria, New York, NY: Scribners, 1994) found more than forty photos taken of Eileen during the relevant period that were wrongly withheld from the defense and that showed no trace of a bald spot.
In November 1995 a federal appeals court overturned George Franklin's murder conviction. By this time Franklin had served almost seven years of a life sentence. The court ruled that the trial had been tainted by the improper allegation that Franklin had confessed and by the exclusion of crucial evidence: Eileen had been hypnotized by her therapist, Kirk Barrett, prior to the first trial, making her testimony unreliable. The court ordered a retrial. On July 2, 1996, the prosecution dropped the charges, citing the problem of Eileen's hypnosis that, by California law, would probably prevent her from testifying. In addition, new DNA evidence showed that it was impossible for Franklin to have committed the second murder his daughter had accused him of, which she claimed happened when she was fifteen.
In June 1997 George Franklin filed a civil suit in federal court against his daughter, her therapist, Barrett, and county officials, claiming violation of his civil rights. The suit alleged, among other things, that Eileen, Barrett, and county officials conspired to deny George Franklin the due process of law and violated his Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendment rights to confront witnesses against him. He also sued Professor Terr for conspiring with Eileen to give false testimony.
In 2000 the court dismissed Franklin's suit against the county officials. The judge for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals also threw out the claims against Professor Terr, writing in his opinion, "Terr is absolutely immune … for civil damages based on the allegation that she conspired to present her own and another witness's perjured testimony at Franklin's criminal trial…. Absolute witness immunity is based on the policy of protecting the judicial process" (Franklin v. Terr, No. 98-16843 [2000]). The court dismissed the suit against Barrett because George Franklin failed to state the right claim that the therapist had conspired with a state official to deny him his constitutional rights. Franklin had sought a token $1 award from his daughter, but that, too, was thrown out.
Suing the Therapist
In February 2004 Elizabeth Gale settled a lawsuit against three therapists and the Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center and Tush North Shore Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois, for $7.5 million. In 1986 Dr. Bennett Braun, a psychiatrist, first diagnosed Gale as having multiple personality disorder when the patient sought treatment for mild depression. Gale was hospitalized for five and a half years and was treated by two other therapists, Doctors Roberta Sachs and Corydon Hammond. Under hypnosis, Gale believed that she was involved in a secret cult that sacrificed children. She was told she had repressed memories of her participation in the cult. She had a tubal ligation, with Braun's approval, so that she would not bear any more children for the cult.
Dr. Bennett Braun settled a similar repressed-memory malpractice suit in 1997, with co-defendants Dr. Elva Poznanski and the Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center, for $1.6 million. The plaintiff, Patricia Burgus, consulted Braun for postpartum depression in 1986. For the next six years, using hypnosis and medication, Braun convinced his patient that she had developed more than three hundred multiple personalities as a result of child abuse. She believed that she was horribly tortured by her family and had participated in ritual murders, cannibalism, and devil worship. Braun also convinced Burgus and her husband that their two sons, ages four and five, might be predisposed to multiple personality disorder like their mother and should be committed to the hospital psychiatric ward. Doctors Braun and Poznanski helped the children "remember" abuse perpetrated by their mother, exposing them to guns and handcuffs for "therapeutic" purposes.
Third-Party Suits
The courts now often hold therapists liable to a third party, usually the patient's accused parent, when they implant or reinforce false memories in their patients. Social worker Susan L. Jones, while treating Joel Hungerford's daughter Laura, convinced her that her anxiety attacks were the result of sexual abuse by her father. Jones not only advised Laura to cease contact with her father but also convinced the patient to file a complaint of aggravated felonious sexual assault against Joel. In addition Jones contacted the police regarding the alleged assault and aided the prosecution in indicting Joel Hungerford.
Hungerford sued Jones for the misdiagnosis and negligent treatment of his daughter's condition. Jones claimed that she owed Hungerford no duty of care, meaning that since she had treated Laura Hungerford, not Joel Hungerford, Joel Hungerford could not claim that her treatment had hurt him. On December 18, 1998, in Joel Hungerford v. Susan L. Jones (No. 97-657 [1998]), the New Hampshire Supreme Court, in this case of "first impression" (with no existing precedent), ruled:
We hold that a therapist owes an accused parent a duty of care in the diagnosis and treatment of an adult patient for sexual abuse where the therapist or the patient, acting on the encouragement, recommendation, or instruction of the therapist, takes public action concerning the accusation. In such instances, the social utility of detecting and punishing sexual abusers and maintaining the breadth of treatment choices for patients is outweighed by the substantial risk of severe harm to falsely accused parents, the family unit, and society.

Unless you have ever, ever met Dr. Elva Poznanski you have no clear idea as to why she was sued. She should have lost her license to practice children long before this case. She is perhaps the worst doctor to treat children, let alone adults. She treated my son while a patient at Rush Hospital & never saw me after the day he was admitted in her care. She believes she is 'above' it all. If you are capable as I was, please do your own research, look at all of her records, including while she was a resident. Her papers are very explicit and she turns everything into sexual deviation with young girls to whom she is very attracted. I had her paperwork analyzed by a renown doctor without giving up her name and he was truly troubled with all of her past and current work. Dr. E. Poznanski is clearly obsessed with female sexual ideation's, because she herself is not a heterosexual although she did try to establish a marriage with man having bore 2 female children, who moved in with the father. Read all of her divorce decree which is public; this too will give you grave reasons to doubt any of her findings on adults or children. She has a strong dislike for the female gender who are not attracted to her and especially strong career minded females who are very attractive and above her income level. I met no one in the hospital including office staff that stated one good word of or about Dr. Elva Poznanski on her staff or even in the cafeteria for that matter as I sought everyone she came into contact with. At first she appears professional until you sit longer enough with her to deter all of her advances if you are a very attractive heterosexual female. She will not take NO for an answer.

I hired Dr. Elva Poznanski for my young son when he was just 7 years old who wanted to die and told me how he would kill himself. I got on the phone and found out that Rush had a child Psychiatrists, Dr. Elva Poznanski was the head of the department with a plaque of the name 'Kellogg' on the wall. How bad could it be? I was desperate to save my only child...it was VERY BAD! She only met with me once in the initial interview before I admitted him. Dr. Elva Poznanski admitted him into the child Physic dept, & pocketed tons of money per day being paid to the Hospital and in her own pocket. She never answered my telephone calls and NEVER saw me again after admitting him in as an in-patient. Then, I was NOT allowed to see my son! Dr. Elva Poznanski is the biggest quack in child Psychiatry you will ever, ever meet. I even paid in cash $12,000.00 for his last week of his stay to debunk her diagnosis that I was the problem & even sexually! OMG.. It was his father whom I divorced who I believed sexually abused my son as my Ex was gay after having him followed. Dr. Poznanski only wanted to know "where did you get that kind of money?" Is that strange sounding to anyone else here? STAY away from her, she is lead poison. She never told me that she 'mediates' in custody battles on the side either..which my ex paid her another $10,000.00 for a letter to the court that my EX'S lawyer authored. While she was in a deposition, she did NOT know about that so-called letter, because it was in fact written by my EX'S lawyer! If you want to know the real truth of Dr. Elva Poznanski, get a copy of all of her divorce records. Everything you need to know about her is in her divorce decree which is public. THERE is the real poison if you want to sue her. Dr. Elva Poznanski's EX husband laid it all out and it is damning, VERY DAMNING. If you have a case against Dr. Elva Poznanski, seek her public divorce decree from the 1980's. You will win you case & she will crawl away like the hoorid person she is. I saw Karma in real action this morning after I read all of the damning records. I left Chicago and never looked back & never knew what happened to her professional career. I was extorted into hell; 1988. She paid 10 years later...believe in Karma folks..it comes around eventually. Blessed be to all of the GOOD therapists. And, Hell to be paid for the bad ones like Elva Poznanski who is also a treating children by the way...do you want a female that is flaming to treat your precious children? No you don't. If I would have shown sexual interests with the BAD Doctor, she would have given me the letter saying my Ex was the problem, that is how bad her own divorce records are! rotflmao now! Karma is a real bi**h, isn't it!

Could you comment on the Marilynn (sp?) Daly case in Wisconsin roughly ten years ago?
about 8 years ago
Unless you have suffered the unbelievable emotional crucifixion of being falsely accused it is likely people tend to believe the accuser. Trust me. Nothing to hide. False accusation of abuse has almost ruined me. But I will not sink to the depths of my accuser. He lives in hell, and I won't join him. This site has brought me hope as I plan on seeking my own recovery of the huge amount of my families money required to defend this allegation. Thank you.
over 10 years ago
Unless the accuser can be proved of undeniably unsound mind, this is all very dubious.
A well-funded group of people (any FMS society) that aggressively pursues alleged child abuse victims seems a bit strange.
The fact that the founding father and mother of the FMS movement were themselves accused of abuse, and subsequently dragged their daughter through dirt, should be informative to those who take a cursory glance at this issue.
I suspect that many of these people have something to hide themselves, and would rather err on the side of destroying the abused rather than face their guilt.

Assalam Alaikom,
Yesterday I happened to read an article about a report called ' Genome of 18-week-old foetus deciphered'. Feel free to read the article itself and skip the next paragraph. For the lazy ones and the very few percentage who like my writing, I will give you the shorthand version. We all heard the word DNA before and most of us know it's that 'thing' that contains all our biological data and CSI detectives never find a match for. So what happened ? They took a blood sample from the mother and saliva from the dad to sequence the baby's genome. They used pieces of the foetus's DNA that float in the mom's blood, accompanied with the parent's own DNA as a guide to make a 98% accurate complete genome map. The accuracy part came after the baby was born and they, mercilessly, took it's own DNA to compare. They report that they found 39 mutations out of 44. Non of them were the ability to make bone blades appear from his fists.
I don't understand half of it but I find this most important. I remember back in school we studied a subject called 'Eugenia', that was all about changing the human race for the better. Described briefly, it's the science of 'Not letting stupid people procreate'. If natural selection wasn't working right, we have to do it ourselves. The public and some of the scientific community associate it often with the Nazis abuses. You wouldn't know it by looking at him, but Graham bell was a Eugenic back in the day.
Eugenia fell into disfavor by the mid-20th century thanks to Nazis, only to re spawn in the late 80s with new discoveries made in genetics and other fields. I couldn't help but recall it while I was reading this article. Surely it will be years before it can be clinically used, but imagine if it is. Abortion rates would sky-rocket, your girlfriend will ask to see your DNA sheet before she accepts your marriage proposal and babies may be welcomed into the world by a police man instead of a nurse because they discovered he has a Ted Bundy mutation.

Muhammad cartoon sparks anti-French protests
French embassies around the world have been hit by protests following the publication of caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad in a satirical magazine.
Weekly paper, Charlie Hebdo, had its Paris offices burned down by a petrol bomb attack in November, after printing an edition which named the Prophet as "guest editor" and has now printed obscene cartoons of Muhammad in the nude.
The publication of the caricatures has divided opinion in France. It highlights the tension between the western principle of freedom of speech and Islamic beliefs that find insults to the Prophet intolerable.
In Iran, dozens of students and clerics gathered outside the French embassy in Tehran chanting "death to France", and "Down with the US" as an American made film they find blasphemous continues to also cause controversy.
In Tunisia the French embassy has announced the closure of all French schools until Monday as violence is feared and protests have already taken place in Pakistan where hundreds of people clashed with police. Officers used tear gas and batons to prevent them from reaching French government buildings.
French embassies, consulates, cultural centres and schools in some 20 muslim countries are temporarily closing as much larger demonstrations are expected after Friday prayers.

Excellent base for your lighter machines. Not a cinch to put together but not bad either. Can't find much I don't like about it. Gave it four stars so as not to be accused unpatriotic. Buy USA product until you can't afford them anymore.

I, too, have one under my bandsaw and drill press. I think they are great and a steal for the cost. I would buy this before spending the bucks for the over priced name brands. I plan on buying more.

I have three of these in my shop. They do okay for lighter tools (portable planer on stand, small grizzly drum sander), but the small plastic caster wheels will not budge over even small amounts of sawdust if they are carrying much weight. I can hardly move my shopfox bandsaw using this base. But, for the price, they are hard to beat.

Riley Occupational Therapist: 'It's Amazing To Just Watch What These Kids Can Do'
Kirsten Bovee was born without her left arm. At six months old, she saw an occupational therapist. Now, she leads the entire team of occupational therapists at Riley.
If she thinks about it, for just a few seconds, Kirsten Bovee starts to smile -- just thinking about the amazing wonder she gets to see.
The teenage girl with cerebral palsy, who after months of therapy, learns to get dressed without any help. The toddler with autism who masters clapping to the beat of a song. The boy born without a hand, who just wants to tie his own basketball shoes – and he does. Then, he throws a ball through the hoop.
"They come in and they can't do it. And then, they do," says Bovee. "It's amazing to just watch what these kids can do."
There are plenty of medical marvels inside hospitals. But occupational therapy is a place where hundreds of tiny marvels happen each day.
As team leader of the occupational therapists at Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health, Bovee gets to see plenty of them.
She assesses each child who comes to her department and prioritizes when they will be seen by a therapist. She works with a team of 25 to schedule and hear progress of patients. She even fills in as occupational therapist when an extra hand is needed.
All the while, Bovee stands out inside the halls of Riley – for her compassion and her kindness. As she sits in an office next to a colorful room filled with therapy equipment, toys and games, Bovee's love for her job is evident.
She is, after all, doing exactly what she dreamed of as a teenage girl.
Bovee was a junior in high school in Crown Point, Ind., playing soccer and on the track team when she had a talk with her dad about her future career. Bovee wanted to work with kids, she told him. Maybe be a teacher.
Her dad told her about occupational therapy. The Bovee family knew all about that. Bovee had gone to an occupational therapist at just six months old.
Bovee was born without her left arm, the result of amniotic band syndrome. The condition occurs when bands of fibers form in the amniotic sac and, essentially, cut off circulation to growing limbs.
Most days at Riley, Bovee works without a prosthetic arm. She's never really gotten used to wearing one. She never really liked the feel of it.
Bovee remembers the mornings at home getting ready for first grade. Her mom would have her put on her prosthetic arm and send her off to school. When Bovee arrived, she would promptly take it off.
The school nurse would call her mom to let her know. Eventually, Bovee won that battle.
She doesn't remember being treated any differently by the kids at school. One time, in third grade, a boy made fun of her. The teacher caught wind of it, took him out into the hallway, and it never happened again.
The kids at Riley sometimes take a bit to warm up to Bovee. They notice she doesn't have a lower left arm. But it doesn't take them long.
In fact, they get so used to it that they forget there is anything different. Bovee will be showing a child how to clap – for her that's taking her right hand to her left elbow -- and the patient will clap that way, too.
"No. No," she'll smile and tell them. "You have two hands. Clap with your hands."
It took Bovee just four years at the University of Southern Indiana to earn her master's of science degree. As a student, she did a clinical at Texas Children's Hospital in the neonatal intensive care unit.
She loved the hospital experience. It was then that her dream job went from occupational therapy with kids to occupational therapy at a children's hospital.
When Bovee graduated in 2009, she applied at every children's hospital in the United States that had an occupational therapy opening. Riley didn't have an opening at the time.
Bovee landed a job in the outpatient clinic of Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters in Virginia. She stayed there until May of 2015, when she landed the job of team leader at Riley.
"I love watching the progress of the children," she says. "I love being able to form those bonds."
More with Bovee
Personal: Bovee and husband, Jeremy, are parents to 13-month-old Madelyn. They also have Carley, a 5-year-old German shorthaired pointer.
Outside of Riley: She loves spending time with her family and going on walks and hikes with Carley. She and Jeremy are active in Cross Fit and in training for an upcoming competition. She also loves hanging out with her parents and three siblings and going to Indianapolis Colts games.

What are Detox Foot Pads?
Detox foot pads are adhesive pads that you place on the bottoms of your feet while you sleep. Manufacturers claim that these little pads will draw out heavy metals and other toxins through the soles of your feet. When you apply the pads to your feet, as you sleep, the pads draw out the toxins and turn color, usually brown, indicating that they are working.
The idea is that through reflexology and pressure points, on the bottom of your feet, which are aligned with your vital organs, the medicine on the detox foot pads will cleanse your system of toxins. These toxins are collected through daily exposure to pollution and other contaminants. Other distributors claim that detox foot pads work through reflexology to access lymph nodes.
Most manufacturers claim that their detox foot pad's benefits include better sleep, better or normal circulation, reduces the burden on the immune system, removal of heavy metals, removal of toxins in the body, and detoxifying of the lymphatic system. There are some manufacturers who sell organic detox foot pads that are 100% natural and free of all chemicals and pesticides. Some manufacturers will seal their detox foot pads in Mylar bags or other special packaging to prevent contamination.
While there are many users who are happy with their detox foot pads, there is no real science to back up the claims made by manufacturers. Critics assert that the placebo effect is the reason some users are so happy with their product. Most critics are equally disturbed by the lack of scientific evidence offered by the manufacturers to back up their claims. Often there is not a list of ingredients offered, and if there is, it doesn't include how much of the ingredients are used. This makes testing in controlled environments difficult to impossible.
There are users who complain of the smell, probably from the vinegars, that the foot pads have. Some users complain that there is a residue left on their feet from the ingredients of the foot pads. Another drawback seems to be price. Some detox foot pads will set you back $34.95 US Dollars (USD), plus shipping and handling, for a ten day supply.
Many critics find that the wood vinegar in the detox foot pads, which is an ingredient in nearly all of the foot pads available, will turn brown with a little water. Critics claim that as your feet sweat, the moisture activates the wood vinegar and, its dark pigment, stains the pads. They assert this discredits claims that when the pads turn color it is an indication that toxins have been removed from your body.
Critics of detox foot pads go on to state medical facts that disprove the functionality of the pads. Those include skin's inability to allow heavy metals to pass through it. One reporter did some informal independent testing and had foot pads, used by volunteers, tested for heavy metals and toxins, but the lab didn't find arsenic, mercury, or any other toxin in the used pads. What critics fear most is that people, who are seriously ill, will postpone getting medical help, believing that the detox foot pads are the cure they're looking for. In this way, detox foot pads can be considered very dangerous.

As you know, the soapUI 4.5 release is approaching with a bunch of new cool features, and one of these is what we call Test On Demand. This basically means running your soapUI tests in the cloud. Now thanks to our colleagues from the AlertSite team at SmartBear you don't have to worry about the cloud stuff as their monitoring service takes care of the infrastructure, so you can focus on the testing.
Why do you want to run your tests in the cloud? Well, let's say that you're testing your public API from your local machine using soapUI. Wouldn't it be interesting to also know how the tests would behave if they were run from another continent? And wouldn't it be nice if you could get the results in a nicely formatted report? Well, this is what Test On Demand can provide, the real end-to-end test perspective.
So how does it work in practice? I'll show you, but remember that this is bleeding edge stuff and it could change a bit in functionally before the final release.
With that in mind, here's how it will work:
1. Double-click the TestCase you want to run on demand. Initially we'll keep it simple and won't support external dependencies such as Excel files and JDBC connections.Also the service or resource you're testing should be accessible from the Internet. Don't worry though, soapUI will tell you if your project is good to go before uploading it.
2. Now take a look at this new Test On Demand tab. You want to click it right? Let's do that.
3. Here we're able to choose a location from where you want to run your TestCase. Let's go for the capital of the United States.
4. If we now hit the Run button our TestCase will be uploaded to a Washington server and the web services test will be run from there.
5. After the TestCase has been uploaded we'll see it run on the server and finally we're presented with a report of the outcome of the test and that also includes all of the detailed performance metrics.
Hmm, well maybe not that pretty at the moment since the report page is still under development, but when this is done you'll be able to get a neat report containing all the results you are used to seeing in the TestCase Log along with some new interesting metrics such as time to first byte and DNS time.
So, after this short peek I hope you'll be even more excited about the upcoming release. Now if you'll excuse me I need to get back to coding the last things of this cool new feature.

Photos: NET-A-PORTER
Shoe designer Rupert Sanderson and teamed up with fashion label Antonio Berardi to create a three piece shoe collection which will be available exclusively through online retailer Net-a-Porter. The three designs each feature clear PVC elements. There is a beaded art deco pair, a gold chain design and a striking electric blue peep-toe heel. The designs cost between £795 – £1675.
The two designers first met by accident five years ago, while actress Gwyneth Paltrow wanted to team a pair of Sanderson's heels with a Berardi dress. The duo reconnected to collaborate on shoes for Berardi's Spring/Summer 2014 collection. Sanderson commented that their work together is:
"a meeting of cultures, there is a true glamour to Antonio's work."
Berardi added that the two designers wanted to create iconic pieces that would become future classics:
"The idea was to create a small evening shoe collection of super chic, sexy and iconic pieces that will stand the test of time to compliment my collection, something completely different and exciting."
The new three piece capsule collection will land on Net-a-Porter this week.

At an early, Rhonda fell in love with romance novels, knowing one day she'd write her own love story. Life took a short detour, but when the story ideas would no longer be contained, she decided to dive in and write. Her first rough draft was on a dirty napkin she found buried in her car.

Debt consolidation provides a simplified way to pay off one's debt by providing a consumer with one monthly payment and a reduced interest rate. However, debt consolidation has its drawbacks: Nearly 70 percent of Americans who consolidate their debt accumulate the same amount of debt or more within two years. Paying off your debt aggressively can help you eliminate your debt and improve your credit score.
Make a list of your debts. Include the name of the creditor, the balance owed and the interest rate. Order the debts by interest rate, with the highest interest rate listed first.
Contact each of your creditors. Ask each creditor to reduce your interest rate and to waive any fees that have accumulated, such as late-payment or over-limit charges. Emphasize to creditors the lengths of your relationships with them -- if your records of payment have been good -- and explain extenuating circumstances, such as a recent layoff or illness. Signing up with a credit counseling organization may also give you a neutral party who can negotiate on your behalf.
Transfer the balances of credit card accounts with the highest interest rates to cards with lower interest rates. You may also be able to acquire a new card with an appealing introductory or balance transfer rate. The goal is to decrease the interest rates on your existing debts so you will pay less money in the long run.
Make the minimum payment on all credit cards and other debts so that you do not negatively affect your credit. Make a larger payment to the card or debt with the highest interest rate. Once you have paid off the account with the highest interest rate, add the amount previously paid on it to the monthly payment on the account with the next-highest interest rate. This creates a "snowball" effect that enables you eliminate debt faster.
Call a creditor and request a debt settlement if you want to speed up the process. A debt settlement means that a creditor will accept a lower portion of the debt than you owe to consider the debt forgiven. Beware that this strategy may decrease your credit score and require you to include the forgiven amount of debt as taxable income.
Items you will need
- Credit card statements
- Statements for other bills
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be an option for consumers who have an overwhelming amount of debt. Consumers are generally required to be under a certain income level and must take a credit counseling course.

Do you have one or more missing teeth? Are you searching for an experienced dentist for implants in Houston? Well, if you're looking to remedy your problems with missing teeth, Dr. Kathy Frazar at The Houston Dentists would love to help you achieve the smile you want with dental implants.
The implants procedure is invasive and delicate. This is why it is so very important for you to choose a Houston implants dentist with experience. You need a dentist who understands the implants process and who knows how to give you secure and beautiful implants in the most painless way possible.
What Is A Dental Implant?
Dental implants are essentially artificial tooth roots made of durable titanium. These artificial tooth roots are implanted directly into your jaw bone, forming a firm foundation for either a porcelain crown, dental bridge, or denture.
How Implants Can Help You
One of the most attractive things about getting one or more dental implants is the fact that they are extremely versatile. Dental implants can be used to replace one or more missing teeth, and they can be used to secure ill-fitting dentures. Therefore, no matter how extensive your problems may be, dental implants can help.
Dental implants work in the following ways:
- A single dental implant can be used with a porcelain crown to replace a single missing tooth.
- A few dental implants can be used to replace several missing teeth with a dental bridge.
- A full set of dental implants can be used to replace multiple missing teeth with partial or full-set dentures.
- Dental implants can be used to secure an ill-fitting denture.
Therefore, you can rest assured that your dental implants can replace your missing teeth, and give you the self-confidence you deserve!
How Does the Implants Procedure Work?
The implants procedure is invasive and intricate. It takes skill and deft precision to give a patient stable and high-quality implants.
The implants procedure works in the following ways:
- You will come in for your first initial evaluation in which your cosmetic dentist will determine the best course of action to take in order to give you the best implants possible.
- You will then undergo oral surgery in which your implant will be inserted directly into your jaw bone.
- Your implant will then be given time to fuse with your bone before you come in for your last appointment where your dentist will use crowns, bridges, or dentures to replace your missing teeth.
Additionally, you need not worry about any sort of pain associated with the implants procedure because our top-notch Houston implants dentist uses only the most effective sedation dentistry to make your procedure as pain-free as possible.
Choosing Dr. Kathy Frazar
If you're in need of a Houston dentist with experience in dental implants placement, please consider Dr. Kathy Frazar here at The Houston Dentists. She would certainly love to help you replace your missing teeth and restore your self-confidence. You can call her office for a complimentary consultation at 713-701-1783.

On Monday the nationwide local elections were supposed to be held, however, as Ugandan's headed to the polls they were informed that the elections were postponed until the following day. When I asked why, Grace, a Lively Minds employee replied, "Because this is Uganda". As all of Lively Minds play centres and workshops are in held in public buildings, which are used as polling centres, we had already cancelled all field-work for Monday and consequently had to cancel our plans for Tuesday. But we made the most of the unforeseen circumstances regardless.
Joshua, Lively Minds country manager, invited me to give a psychological opinion on a 9-year-old boy with significantly delayed verbal skills. I was greeted by the happiest little boy that I've met in quite some time. His parents informed me that they had taken him to many doctors in Jinja and Kampala, who repeatedly told them that their son does not have any difficulties or impairment. From me, they wanted an answer to their question of whether he would benefit from attending a special needs school. A universal model of education is provided in Uganda. Although at face value free education for all is ideal, universal education here equates to the same education for all. With one teacher and up for 50 students in each class, this means that children with any learning difficulties do not get support or a tailored curriculum to help them reach their potential. Priding itself with one of the highest English proficiency rates in Africa, lessons are mostly taught through English, which makes it even harder for children with learning disabilities to achieve. Imagine how difficult learning in that environment would be for a child who can only articulate a handful of words in his local language. Although they are rare special needs schools and classrooms do exist. They reside outside of the universal education system, ensuring that they are reserved for only those who can afford to pay.
Before Joshua joined the Lively Minds team he founded his own primary school in his home village of Buwagi. He invited me to visit his school to meet a boy with significant learning difficulties and hopefully advise his staff on how best to support him. However, on arriving this young boy had already called it a day! Since starting his school eight years ago the pupil numbers have grown to 200. Although it is officially a private school, a quarter of the students are orphans from HIV-AIDS, many of which also have HIV. Their tuition, board and medical care are covered by the school profits. The prevalence of HIV in Uganda is 7.4% and related mortality is frightfully high. Joshua explained that despite these rash facts the government do not support sufficient services for children who are orphaned to the virus, leaving the responsibility to rest with people like Joshua and his staff. He introduced me to his youngest pupil, an adorable three-year-old girl, who has found neglected after her parents passed from HIV. Although she is too young to participate in lessons, the local children join her on the school grounds to play. They were having so much fun until I rudely asked for a photo!

A Novel of the Boom Times
Distributed for Seagull Books
Translated by Samuel P. Willcocks
183 pages | 5 x 8 | © 2012
As the current global recession stubbornly persists and financial experts around the world struggle to prevent further financial collapse, everyone has a theory about how to save the economy. But perhaps no idea that has been proffered is as radical or as unique as what Hugo Loetscher imagines in his novel Noah. In this book, first published in German in 1967, the eponymous Old Testament hero fuels his local economy with a prescient plan to build the Ark. Though no one around him seriously believes in the coming flood, everyone is more than willing to do business with him: "The people of Mesopotamia had never had it so good. There had been an economic miracle." It is boom time in Mesopotamia, and the economy is flourishing; but as with many financial bubbles, scandal and demise are not far out of sight. An ancient legend retold in light of capitalist reality, Noah is a witty, delightful and thought-provoking parable of our times.
Hugo Loetscher (1929–2009), widely known as the most cosmopolitan of Swiss writers due to his travels and journalistic work in Latin America and Asia, has until now been known mainly by readers in his home country, where he has been the recipient of its most prestigious literary prize. This attentive and engaging translation makes available to a new audience an incredibly timely and entertaining work.

The Impact of Consumer Inattention on Insurer Pricing in the Medicare Part D Program
, ,
NBER Working Paper No. 21028
The Medicare Part D program relies on consumer choice to provide insurers with incentives to offer low-priced, high-quality pharmaceutical insurance plans. We demonstrate that consumers switch plans infrequently and search imperfectly. We estimate a model of consumer plan choice with inattentive consumers and show that high observed premiums are consistent with insurers profiting from consumer inertia. We estimate the reduction in steady state plan premiums if all consumers were attentive. An average consumer could save $1050 over three years; government savings in the same period could amount to $1.3 billion or 1% of the cost of subsidizing the relevant enrollees.
A non-technical summary of this paper is available in the August 2015 NBER Digest.

text: Why are there so many street corner sign-holders in Arvada? At first it seemed like only the lowbrow independent shops paid people to wave signs at passing cars. Usually mattress sales and rent-to-own specials. But lately there have been larger businesses, like Kmart, hiring the stick people. Recently I spotted both Safeway and Quiznos stooping too. How tacky.
