Technology - There are two main screen technologies currently used in phones and tablets: LCD and AMOLED. The former usually features a light source and liquid crystals, while the latter is based on organic light-emitting diodes. Newer LCD variations like IPS-LCD and Super-LCD allow for very accurate color reproduction and very wide viewing angles, where no significant image quality loss is observed. Current AMOLED screens differ in such a way that they can exhibit much more saturated colors (sometimes too much) and incredibly high contrast levels, which is due to black color being completely black in AMOLED displays.

Samsung T429 - could be better.

Jun 23, 2008 by rickp315

This phone was purchased to replace a dead Nokia. After 3 days of near zero signal, while my standby Nokia had almost full signal, this phone is being returned. I have been a T-Mobile customer over 4 years now, NW PA.

I have had other Samsung devices in the past and they performed very well. This was the exception. I really liked the slide action to this device. But, for what I paid for it, I was very disappointed.

-smooth slide action
-decent screen (except in daylight)
-larger screen
-great keypad and backlight
-side keys for volume/camera
-camera ok for a phone
-call quality great

-poor signal
-takes too long to send pict. message
-sometimes sliding phone open activates menu

Samsung needs to address the signal issue with this phone. Otherwise its a solid device.

Pentax K-5 IIs Review

April 3, 2013 | Mark Goldstein | |

Review Roundup

Reviews of the Pentax K-5 IIs from around the web. »

I reviewed the Pentax K-5 II in November 2012 and found it to be an excellent DSLR, well worth the Editor's Choice accolade. Pentax have been bold in introducing the IIs variant which, like the Nikon D800E, is an option with no anti-aliasing (AA) filter to reduce the full sharpness potential of the sensor.
Read the full review » »

In our review of the Pentax K-5 II, we briefly touched on the camera's sister model, the K-5 IIs. The IIs is identical to the K-5 II except that its anti-aliasing filter has been removed. In practice, this should increase sharpness, with the possible side-effect of aliasing, moiré, and other image artifacts. We've seen this tactic elsewhere recently, most notably with the Nikon D800 and D800E siblings. But the K-5 II has the distinction of being the first APS-C

The Pentax K-5 IIs ($1,299.95 direct, body only) $1,007.79 at Amazon sets itself apart from the nearly identical K-5 II$959.99 at 42nd Street Photo by something it lacks: a low-pass filter. Elminating this filter allows the camera to capture sharper detail, although it comes at the risk of picking up moiré color patterns in certain shooting situations. Like the K-5 II, the 16-megapixel camera shoots at an impressive 6.2 frames per second, is sealed for use in harsh weather, and delivers excellent photos even at high ISO settings. It's on a par with our Editors' Choice Sony Alpha 77$1,479.99 at 42nd Street Photo, but a disappointing video experience prevents it from ousting that camera from its perch.

With the K-5 IIs, Pentax has the most feature-rich DSLR currently available - again. This DSLR camera boasts built-in stabilization, automatic horizon correction, a dual-axis digital level, class-leading weather-sealing, a large 100% coverage viewfinder, a 3" LCD with 921K pixels, ISO up to 51200, 7 FPS continuous shooting, live-view and a wealth of unique photographic controls and image parameters. All this in a sturdy and relatively compact pro body. In addition to its photographic capabilities, the Pentax K-5 records full 1080p HD movies, either with a built-in mono microphone or an external stereo one.

 PigProgress - Trees have to keep pig odours away

Photo & video 2465 views last update:Aug 1, 2006

Trees have to keep pig odours away

The Canadian Pork Council (CPC), together with regional partners in eastern Canada, is delivering a programme aiming to plant more trees across the landscape, to the benefit of both farmers and the non-farming public.

A two-year awareness project was initiated in April 2005 - and will be wrapping up activities in March 2007 - to demonstrate that trees planted at or around pig house sites - referred to as shelterbelts - provide a chance to control odours better.

Moreover, the are also diminishing the amount of energy needed to keep barns warm and dry.

According to an Environmental Programs spokesman the demonstration is designed to promote shelterbelts. The project will also ensure that the expertise exists in the future to have shelterbelts installed properly and effectively throughout various Canadian hog provinces.

The project is offering a training course, open to those in a position to promote and design shelterbelts for hog producers. In addition, the course provides participants with experience as farm site plans are part of the training.

CPC President Clare Schlegel says, "When a hog producer comes to understand that by simply planting trees in a planned approach, the prevalence of odours is significantly reduced, farm energy costs can be cut by 25 to 30%, greenhouse gas emissions are reduced and the aesthetics of the site are drastically improved, the uptake of the practice is likely to be rapid."

Clarifying some bicycle path, cycling issues

April 3, 2013
Pine Island Eagle

To the editor:

I am compelled to respond to the letter in this weeks Eagle called "Misinformation regarding the bicycle path." The writer unfortunately is incorrect. Though she quoted State Statute 316.2065, it has nothing to do with riding on Stringfellow Road. There is no designated bicycle lane on that road and the multiuse path parallel to the road is not discussed in that statute. To clarify the law more clearly and hopefully put this issue to rest, I will quote the pertinent legal aspects of this topic below from Mr. Dan Moser of BikeWalk Lee and Florida Bicycling Association. My wife obtained this information while doing research about this last year for a bike safety project for Pine Island.

"You are correct that a cyclist is never compelled to use a side path (rare exceptions exist, such as cyclists being compelled to use an adjacent side path on a drawbridge with a steel grate surface that create a clear hazard). Many years ago Sanibel PD attempted to force someone onto the path by citing him. In court the citation was dismissed and the judge made clear that a bicycle is a legal vehicle when on the roadway and has all the rights and duties of other vehicle operators.

"One of FBA's websites, Florida Bicycle Law ( is a good resource, as is the Law Enforcement Guide ( we and FDOT publish each year.

"PS - Inappropriate use of the horn and threatening behavior by the driver is illegal, so I'd suggest you report it, or better yet, record it and then report it.

"An excerpt from the 2012 LEG can be found below. Also below is something from Florida Bicycle Law that should help ... Dan.

"A bicycle is defined as a vehicle [316 .003(2)] for purposes of the Uniform Traffic Control Law. A bicycle with an electric helper motor that cannot propel it faster than 20 mph on level ground is included in this definition. A person in control of a vehicle on a street or highway is a driver [316 .003(1)] . As a driver, a cyclist must follow the traffic rules common to all drivers. As the driver of a bicycle, he must also obey rules adopted specially for bicycles. A cyclist has all of the rights to the roadway applicable to any driver, except as to the special regulations for bicycles [316 .2065(1)]. A cyclist is not required to have a driver license [322 .01(42)]

"Even if the area is marked and signed or otherwise designated as a bike path, cyclists are never required to use a bicycle path or a sidewalk. Cyclists may use a paved shoulder, sidewalk (Unless prohibited by local ordinance), or a bike path if they so desire, but it is not required. A bike path is not a bike lane, which is a portion of the roadway marked for the use of bicyclists. Use of a marked bike lane by cyclists riding in the roadway is mandatory under some circumstances.

"You should ask anyone who thinks otherwise to show you the statute that requires it. They will not be able to do so. Please see this and the other posts related to sidewalks, bike paths and bike lanes:

"I suggest that you take this information to the local police and ask them to clarify the situation for all users."

So I hope this clarifies the situation. Bicyclists legally have their choice of using the road or the multiuse path on Pine Island. Also, as surprising as it may seem, there is statistically a far less chance of being injured on the road than the bike path. I certainly do agree that it seems safer to ride on the multiuse path when there is less than a few feet of shoulder on the road and that is what I personally do. However, legally speaking, it's up to the individual rider to decide. Lastly, those riders going over 15 mph probably should not ride on the multiuse path as part of bicycling etiquette. This is frequently the reason faster riders are seen on the road too.

Bluegrass bonanza

With the Brackendale Art Gallery up for sale, the 14th festival may be its final pluck at the banjo

  • MURFITT & MAIN The Vancouver four-piece opens the 14th annual Brackendale Bluegrass Festival at the BAG on Saturday, May 7, at 8 p.m.

With the "For Sale" sign up in front of the Brackendale Art Gallery (BAG), the 14th annual Brackendale Bluegrass Festival is possibly one of the final opportunities to spend an evening at the venerable old arts centre, located north of Squamish.

The BAG is currently on the market for $2.7 million.

But for now, the wooden floors are still there for dancing and for toe tapping, and the bar is ready with food and drink.

Four-piece bluegrass ensemble Murfitt & Main opens the festival for Seattle's North Country Bluegrass Band, featuring Squamish picker Michael Kilby.

Warren Murfitt and Kate Main are bringing the band to the BAG for the first time, which includes an upright bass, acoustic guitar, banjo and a mandolin.

"We all sing and pretty much stick to our own music; we have a big body of original stuff. We'll probably play our own tunes at the festival and cover some of the standards in bluegrass," says Murfitt.

Their songwriting skills have led to several albums in country, Americana and swing, as well as bluegrass. The most recent is country album Rust and Bone.

Main adds they have regular shows in Vancouver and feature appearances around the region.

"We keep busy and keep our hats in the ring," she says.

The band — which includes Matt Kennedy on mandolin and Chris Murphy — have played together for the past seven years.

"We all came together through the bluegrass scene. The Pacific Heritage Bluegrass Society has a fantastic jam on Monday nights," Main says.

"It's where we met Chris and Matt, and have gotten to know so many players, playing the canon tunes of the bluegrass genre."

Murfitt pipes in: "We live a sort of double life, I suppose. We play a bit of bluegrass and a bit of country."

When asked about the dearth of opportunities to play bluegrass, despite the great love fans have for the genre, he says it often comes down to Canada not having as deep a history for it compared to the U.S.

"There are a lot more opportunities to play in the States, you're right," says Main.

"Darrington is an amazing bluegrass festival (in Washington state) and the last time we were there, I was blown away by the number of jams and opportunities compared to here."

The bluegrass festival takes place on Saturday, May 7 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 and available at the BAG or XOCO in Squamish.

The annual slow pitch jam for musicians of all abilities wanting to play bluegrass takes place earlier in the day at 2 p.m. Tickets are $5.

Meanwhile, BAG owner Thor Froslev, who along with his wife Dorte built the venue in 1972, was named a recipient of a 2016 B.C. Community Achievement Award on April 26.

"When I started it, I don't think even Whistler was happening!" Froslev laughs.

"I am very pleased (by the award), it was totally unexpected."

The award recognizes individuals who have made a significant contribution to their community as volunteers or in the course of their work.

As for the festival, Froslev refers to the weekend as "a hoot."

"People come up from Vancouver and down from Whistler. The bands are so good. Last year I sat in the front row and watched North Country and they are great.

"Even my dentist came up (to play in the slow pitch)!"

Breakfast disguised as Lunch @ Big Al's Diner

Something I have truly missed since moving from Detroit to Cleveland is the old fashioned coney island. A coney island for those of you who don't know is the marvelous place where chili dog meets cheese fries and goes on a date with milkshake... sometimes for breakfast, and sometimes for fourth meal. The thing about a coney is more times than not you can usually get an omelette that is the size of your face. Portions are generous, cheese oozes, and the price is always pretty darn cheap.

My manager Clarence swears by Big Al's Diner in Cleveland near Shaker Square. He promised me that the breakfast made to order would alter my world. I'm not sure that my world tilted to its side, but I am pretty sure that I found my Cleveland Diner.

When we arrived the place was PACKED. We were actually sat at a table touching another table, it was the kind of environment where it would have been rude if I had not introduced myself to my neighbors to the right. Even in such close quarters, there was something very perfect about sharing the lunch table with perfect strangers.

The coffee was fabulous, I had three cups. It was difficult to get all three poured, in fact I had to set my cup on the lunch counter to get someones attention.

I ordered a cheese, mushroom, and ham omelette with grits and dry rye bread. The BEST part about this meal was that at no point was it sitting under a heat lamp. score.

The mushrooms were thick sliced, and had a baby bella essence about them, really tasty. There was a ton of American cheese and lots of small ham squares. I should have pulled a John Petrou (my father) and asked for my ham to not be chopped into tiny baby finger pieces.

Grits are something I am trying to make myself like... without tons of butter and cheese, not as easy as you might think. Grits have almost no fiber, but I have read that they are high in iron, and the folate they contain help prevent birth defects in your future progeny... get out of town. The grits were pretty great, did I add at least one little gold wrapper of butter? Of course I did, I have almost no self control.

The dry rye toast was dry rye toast..

Al's is a great place to dine. I enjoyed the atmosphere, I enjoyed the semi large omelette, and it is a corner spot that I look forward to hitting up again sometime soon.

'Carrie' — Minus the Songs — To Air on NBC-TV November 4; Angela Bettis Stars

News   'Carrie' — Minus the Songs — To Air on NBC-TV November 4; Angela Bettis Stars

Photo by Paul Michaud/NBC

Ever since the short-lived Broadway musical Carrie — featuring the thrilling performances of dual belters Betty Buckley and Linzi Hateley — the Stephen King tale has been of interest to many theatregoers. NBC will offer a new version of the classic horror story on Monday, Nov. 4.

The new three-hour TV film will not be the musical version, but it does cast theatre actress Angela Bettis, who has appeared on Broadway in The Crucible and Arcadia, in the title role. The new adaptation of King's novel features several scenes that were not part of the original film as well as state-of-the-art digital effects. Others in the cast of the story of a shunned teenaged girl who discovers she has telekinetic powers include Emmy winner Patricia Clarkson as Carrie's religious mother Margaret, Emilie de Ravin as Christine "Chris" Hargensen, Rena Sofer as Miss Rita Desjarden, Jasmine Guy as Ruby Moore, David Keith as Detective John Mulcahey, Jesse Cadotte as Billy Nolan, Kandyse McClure as Sue Snell and Tobias Mehler as Tommy Ross. David Carson directs the movie, which features a script by Bryan Fuller. Fuller executive produced this version of "Carrie" along with Mark Stern, Pen Densham & John Watson, partners in Trilogy Entertainment Group. David Livingston is the producer.

The original 1976 Brian DePalma film of "Carrie" starred Sissy Spacek as Carrie with Piper Laurie as her fanatical mother Margaret. Both Spacek and Laurie were nominated for Academy Awards for their performances. The Broadway musical opened at the Virginia Theatre on May 12, 1988. Though Buckley — who also appeared as Miss Collins in the film — and Hateley were lauded for their work, the musical received negative reviews and closed after 5 performances and 16 previews.

"Carrie" will air on NBC stations around the country on Monday, Nov. 4 from 8 to 11 PM ET. Check local listings.

In other "Carrie" news, the Off Broadway company Theatre Couture is readying a new adaptation of the Stephen King horror novel. If all goes well, Off-Broadway will see a commercial staging starring drag performer Sherry Vine in spring or fall of 2003.

The Theatre Couture version, written by Erik Jackson, will not be a musical, although it will have "some musical elements."

"It will definitely be very black comedy," Jackson told Playbill On-Line. "But that's inherent in the novel. It's a very serious take on the pressures and pain of adolescence. But 'Carrie' is also so well known in our culture; we all know the story. Everybody feels it's their story. Because of that collective unconscious, there's a way to have fun with the story. There will be comedy and camp, and some horror, and maybe a little blood.

"In the Broadway musical, they spattered that actress with a little stage blood. We'll have much more. With our version, you may want to bring a raincoat."

Jackson said the company has already talked to some producers, who want to open the show in a commercial Off-Broadway house. In the past, Theatre Couture projects—such as Doll and the 1997 Off-Broadway transfer Tell Tale—have begun at grungy, nonprofit, Off-Off Broadway venues, such as P.S. 122.

Carrie already has its creative team in place. Josh Rosenzweig will direct. Kevin Adams (Hedda Gabler) will provide lighting and scenery. David Dalrymple, the man responsible for the breakaway suit pop tart Britney Spears wore on the MTV Awards, will design the costumes. Basil Twist, the award-winning puppeteer who created the long-running underwater puppet show, Symphonie Fantastique, will do the telekinesis-related special effects. And Sherry Vine will star as either the woebegone Carrie or her Christian zealot mother.

Somewhat incredibly, Jackson's first wish was to restage the Broadway musical. However, he found the creative team less than excited about the idea. "We talked to them at one point," said Jackson. "We had a meeting. But they are interested in having that production vindicated. They don't want someone to make fun of it. We wanted to celebrate it, but also lampoon it."

Thus rejected, Jackson, taking a different tack, decided to adapt King's novel from scratch. He began by writing the author's lawyer. "We got an immediate response back," he recalled. "He wrote, 'Are you out of your mind?' But, at the bottom of the letter, I noticed the lawyer had cc'd Stephen King."

Rebuffed a second time, Jackson was ready to abandon "Carrie." "I had given up," he said. "I was angry that they hadn't read my letter more closely. I was done." Then two weeks after the initial correspondence, Jackson received a second letter from King's lawyer, saying "King had asked him to pursue the matter."

Jackson quickly pounded out an exuberant six-page letter to King, explaining why he wanted to adapt "Carrie" and the approach the theatre company would take to the material, mailing it off with a stash of Theatre Couture clippings. Finally, King's lawyer replied, granting the troupe the rights to the book. "I just flipped," said Jackson.

The playwright now has to produce a first draft in the next six months and hope for the best. "[King] must see that this will be an interesting way to see his work," Jackson said.

LG Electronics pursues its 21st century vision of becoming a true global digital leader who can make its customers worldwide happy through its innovative digital products and services. LG Electronics set its mid- and long-term vision anew to rank among the top 3 electronics, information, and telecommunication firms in the world by 2010. As such, they embrace the philosophy of "Great Company, Great People," whereby only great people can create a great company, and pursue two growth strategies involving "fast innovation" and "fast growth." Likewise, they seek to secure three core capabilities: product leadership, market leadership, and people-centered leadership.

The LG HVAC Advantage

LG HVAC systems offer a range of solutions that are cost efficient, quiet and attractive. They provide a smart alternative to both central HVAC and window-mounted air conditioners, and are available in a variety of configurations to suit different cooling and heating situations.

Split Systems
These innovative systems are "split" into indoor and outdoor units. The interior units are available in several different units. The interior units are available in several different configurations: Art Cool, standard wall-mounted, Floor Standing and ceiling cassettes. All interior units have remote controls for easy use. Installation by a qualified HVAC contractor is safe and easy - no duct work or sheet metal is needed. Single, dual and tri-zone systems, as well as cooling only and heat pump models, are available.

Flex Multi-Split Dual-, Tri- and Quad-Zone Air Conditioning Systems
The larger, Flex Multi-Split systems operate two, three or four interior units that are mounted in separate rooms. Each indoor unit comes with its own remote control, allowing the customer to set the temperature individually in different rooms. These units are connected to a single exterior unit. The interior units are available in a variety of styles, including Art Cool, Standard, Ceiling Cassette, and Ceiling Concealed Duct models. Dual-, Tri- and Quad-Zone are available in Heat Pump systems.

Warranty Info
Luxuries Of A Mini-Split (Ductless Split System)
Ductless Split Air Conditioner and Heat Pump products offer wide versatility in solving your cooling and heating requirements. The Indoor unit (evaporator) is mounted inside the room, and usually goes very unnoticeable. It is connected to the outdoor unit (condenser) via refrigerant lines and inter-unit wiring through a 3-1/2" opening in the wall. Since no ductwork is required, installation is simple, fast and efficient. There is no need to use up window space or cut large openings in existing walls, which could undermine the integrity of your structure, and even pose security risks. Since the Rotary compressor is located in the outdoor unit, compressor operating noise is virtually eliminated from the indoor. The indoor unit has been uniquely designed to provide Whisper Quiet operation while delivering comfort throughout the room(s). In addition, rotary compressors provide efficient, powerful cooling at the lowest noise levels in the industry.

    ***Capacity varies depending on the combination.***

    Inverter (Variable Speed Compressor)
  • Instead of shutting off once the desired temperature is reached, the inverter compressor continues to operate at low speed to maintain that temperature.
  • It is quieter to operate and uses less energy than conventional ACs, which cycle on and off.

    Chaos Wind

    Was wondering what everyone thought a person should get paid to run a truck you pay for(they just run my trucks)? Now keep in mind they get to collect on top of getting paid cash and get a 4 to 5 hour min. in case they show up and something happens(other day sat around and drank coffee/worked for a hour)? I see this type of question alot but would like some fresh input(area-$ amount). Just wanted to see if I'm being good to my guys? Thanks in advance!

    That is a good questions, we pay $20.00 per hour to drive the trucks or work on a side walk crew or run a skid loader or pusher. On those guys who own their trucks and equipment we negotiate based on the property and what we expect from them.

Editor, the Record:

Editor, the Record:

After reading Kathi Lockwood's letter inviting all to her ice cream social next Sunday in town, we reached out to her to thank her, but still feel one of her main concerns, fracking, is not a borough issue.

We are unable to participate. While we applaud Kathi on her passionate stance on fracking, we would prefer our candidates (mayoral and borough council) to focus on local issues, and fracking to be dealt with at the state legislative and governor's level. There are many areas around the borough that need to be addressed with zoning enforcement that can easily be achieved in a timely fashion.

I do not feel fracking at this time in Stroudsburg is an issue that should take priority over some of the other more pressing issues plaguing this town. And, certainly not one that a mayoral candidate would need to focus on.

Bearing Bad News

Telling someone that a loved one won't be coming home is never easy, but you need to learn to handle it like a professional.

September 07, 2010  |  by Greg Young

Sorry For Your Loss

Before you go up to the door and knock on it, decide as a team which of you is going to make the actual notification, and who is there in a supportive role. By working as a team, you can more effectively help those you are notifying.

Take a deep breath, and say to yourself, "Be calm." If you are religious, offer a silent prayer for you, your partner, and the person(s) that you are about to notify, then knock on the door.

After knocking on the door, introduce yourselves and ask if they are the family you are supposed to notify. You want to be certain that these are the correct people to be contacting, the next of kin.

Then ask the resident being notified if you can enter their home. (Note: sometimes people won't invite you inside so you are left with no other option than talking to them through the door.). Once inside, if you can get the person(s) to sit down that is good, but not necessary. Because everyone is dumping so much adrenaline at this point, often people won't sit down until you tell them what is going on.

Ask as calmly as you can, and slowly while making good eye contact say, "Are you the parents of [Name]? I'm afraid that I have some very bad news for you..... (pause here momentarily to give those being notified a moment to psychologically prepare themselves). [Name] has been involved in a serious automobile accident, and he/she has died. (Pause) I'm so sorry. They did everything they could to save him/her."

Saying you are sorry expresses emotion, it makes you human. Continue to use the word "dead" or "died" throughout the ongoing conversation, and continue to use the victim's name. This helps those being notified come to the realization that their loved one has died.

Say the Word

Avoid using euphemisms. Don't say that their loved one has passed on....or "I know how you feel." Using dead or died is clear and to the point. When said with compassion, it is the best way to let someone know that a loved one is gone.

Avoid the "God clichés" such as "It was God's will" or "God never gives us more than we can handle." When we find ourselves reaching for these kinds of expressions, although well meaning, they are not generally helpful to those we are saying them to, and they often spring out of our nervous need to "say something."

Because of the life-altering bad news that we are sharing, it is important that we have the calm strength to "hold" what is often an emotional explosion. It is important to let them vent, and it is our job to ride it out with them, and to make sure that their reaction isn't a threat to themselves or others.

Remember to speak slowly, because in the midst of an adrenaline dump the people you're speaking with are not going to be thinking as clearly as they would under normal circumstances.

Maintain good eye contact. It's important for them to feel connected to you, for you are, in a very real sense, a lifeline to them in the midst of that critical incident.

This is, as stated, one of the toughest jobs for some officers, no matter how much time and experience they have on the job or cases done. It is one reason why a lot of departments have Police Chaplains to go with the officer and handle the notification and counseling or being of assistance after the officer needs to go.

Training in CISM or CIT also helps one to prepare to deal with the many emotional areas of stress that a death, sudden or natural, brings and for which officers usually do not have training to handle.

Chaplain Young has done an excellent job writing this article. As a 25-year chaplain vet, the only addition I would make is that if a chaplain accompanies the officer (as should happen), the chaplain is probably the best one to break the news, and the officer is the one who fills in the details of what happened. Give the party only as much as they ask for in small "bites" because, as Young says, people in crisis can only absorb so much. Take your time! I'm strongly in favor of officer/chaplain teams for this purpose. They compliment each other in important ways.

We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Ethics!

© Ruben Bolling

It is ironic that because the Supreme Court is the court of last resort on everything, they are the final deciders in cases involving their own ethics. And yes, Scalia’s son really does work as an employment lawyer for Wal-Mart, and Clarence Thomas really did take money (and fail to report much of it) from people involved in cases he later judged. You can’t make stuff like this up.

UPDATE: Speaking of stuff you can’t make up … read this about Clarence Thomas and you will never ever again vote for a conservative Republican for president, just to make sure that more people like this don’t get appointed to the Supreme Court. All of the following are from solo dissenting opinions issued for the Supreme Court (where none of the other justices agree with Thomas, not even his fellow conservatives): that states have the right to establish an official religion; prisoners have no constitutional right to be protected from beatings by guards; teenagers and students have no free-speech rights at all; a school official strip searching a 13-year-old girl to look for two extra-strength ibuprofen (Advil) pills was “reasonable and justified”; and that the Bush administration has the right to hold an American citizen without charges or trial as an “enemy combatant”.

    Wow! Talk about being in a supreme position. If I understand all of this correctly, members of the ultra conservative Roberts court can interpret the law, break the law, and then decide whether or not they should be held accountable. What kind of strange mushrooms were our forefathers eating? They wanted money out of politics. The horse was already out of the barn before they ever penned their last sentence to the Constitution.

    Well here was this comment, in the same tradition.

    “The Supreme Court today issued an opinion in which they found parts of the first amendment to be unconstitutional.

    Speaking for a 5 to 4 majority, Justice Scalia said that first amendment rights guaranteeing free speech did not mean free speech for those disagreeing with Conservative proposals. “Allowing such speech”, he said, “placed an undue burden on Conservatives to defend positions which are in many cases indefensible and thus the first amendment supresses speech”.

    Scalia also said that while authority for the opinion was not in the Constitution, and in fact violated the Constitution he was certain his opinion was what the Founders meant.

    Justice Thomas, who was part of the majority wrote that he didn’t understand any of this but that Scalia had told him it was ok, and that was good enough for him.”

    Took a Supreme Court class this past semester, where we had to act as trial lawyers before a supreme court, also comprised of our peers. It was a dream team of sorts, consisting of various justices throughout history, and the twist was they had to actually ACT like their justice, otherwise they lost points.

    On our case on student free speech (I was laywer for the two boys wronged by the school), we had Scalia, Roberts, Harlan jr, Rehnquist, Sotomayor, Thomas and three others who didn’t really make enough of an impact on me to remember.

    What I DO remember, however, was listening to Scalia constantly interrupt my legitimate points (which is no surprise if you listen to any supreme court transcript) and Thomas errantly nodding every time I was cut off.

Pound Foolish

There has been quite a bit of attention focused on high frequency trading recently, partially brought on by the book “Flash Boys”. But in a must-read editorial in the NY Times, Paul Krugman points out that the stunning amounts of money being spent on high frequency trading systems is really just one symptom of an even greater problem.

The real problem is that our society is wasting greater and greater amounts of its resources on “financial wheeling and dealing”, which give nothing back in return. One expert puts the waste at several hundred billions of dollars a year. Indeed, since we started dismantling financial regulations around 1980, the percentage of GDP that is skimmed off by the financial services industry has doubled.

In addition, an increasing amount of financial time and energy now goes into speculation, which provides few if any benefits to society. Krugman concludes:

In short, we’re giving huge sums to the financial industry while receiving little or nothing — maybe less than nothing — in return. Mr. Philippon puts the waste at 2 percent of G.D.P. Yet even that figure, I’d argue, understates the true cost of our bloated financial industry. For there is a clear correlation between the rise of modern finance and America’s return to Gilded Age levels of inequality.

Meanwhile, we aren’t spending even close to that amount of money on things that are important. In particular, the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has released a detailed report that shows that the cost of reversing climate change is actually amazingly low. They estimate that reducing the emission of greenhouse gases will reduce the median growth of consumption by a mere 0.06%. This is especially stunning when you realize that the cost of climate change, destruction due to increasingly unpredictable weather, sea level rise, crop failures, etc. will be far greater than that. In other words, doing nothing will cost us far more than cutting back our addiction to fossil fuels. An that doesn’t even include how much we will save by not repeatedly starting wars for oil.

And as Paul Krugman points out in a separate article, the costs of moving to sustainable energy are plummeting.

Consider just one form of sustainable energy, solar:

Paul Krugman

This graph shows that the cost of solar panels has plummeted, and as of 2012 is becoming competitive with coal and natural gas.

Another study shows that wind and solar energy are now 20% cheaper than nuclear power.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. If we would stop subsidizing fossil fuels and give sustainable energy the investment it needs, we could solve our energy problems rapidly. When are we going to stop making excuses?

UPDATE: Oklahoma is passing a law that that makes renewable energy more expensive. Sigh.

    However much one might wish for a truce on social issues, it isn't going to happen. Witness the eagerness of newly-elected Republicans almost everywhere to plunge into that swamp. Daniels's otherwise sensible effort to focus on more urgent matters will haunt him if he runs. Given that and his anti-celebrity persona, he's an unlikely candidate for the front ranks of GOP contenders in this unusual election season.
