2:35 pm	near the village, the peaceful village why does no one tell me these things Actor Patrick McGoohan died Tuesday, January 13, 2009 at the age of 80, leaving behind a legacy of memorable films he'd done in a career that lasted forty years. Be it is a blessing or a curse, none of McGoohan's work as an actor was ever as memorable as his 1967 British TV show The Prisoner, where he played the imprisoned secret agent Number Six, trapped in a mysterious sci-fi village. McGoohan was once famously quoted as saying, "Mel Gibson will always be Mad Max, and me, I will always be a number Current Mood: sad (1 Comment |Comment on this)

11:38 am	drink to lips that are red just something that I like Let’s put tax cuts in terms everyone can understand. Suppose that every night, ten men go to their favorite bar for beer. The tab for all ten comes to $100 for ten pitchers. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. The fifth would pay $1. The sixth would pay $3. The seventh $7. The eighth $12. The ninth $18. The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. So, that’s what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every night and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. “Since you are all such good customers,” he said, “I’m going to reduce the cost of your nightly tab by $20.” So, now drinks for the ten only cost $80. The group still wanted to pay their tab the way we pay our taxes. So, the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six, the paying customers? How could they divvy up the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his ‘fair share’? The six men realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being ‘PAID‘ to drink beer! So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay. And so: The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings). The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% savings). The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% savings). The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings). The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings). The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings). Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once drunk and outside the bar, the men began to compare their savings. “I only got a dollar out of the $20,” declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man “but he got $10!” “Yeah, that’s right,” exclaimed the fifth man. “I only saved a dollar, too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more than me!” “That’s true!!” shouted the seventh man. “Why should he get $10 back when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!” “Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in unison. “We didn’t get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!” The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night the tenth man didn’t show up at the bar, so the nine sat down and drank without him. But when it came time to pay the tab, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money between all of them for even half of the tab! And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up to pick up the tab anymore. Current Mood: contemplative (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:59 am	beyond the edge of the starlight this is just too much fun quoted from http://gizmodo.com/5049896/hubble-finds-unidentified-object-in-space-- This is exactly why we send astronauts to risk their life to service Hubble: in a paper published last week in the Astrophysical Journal, scientists detail the discovery of a new unidentified object in the middle of nowhere. I don't know about you, but when a research paper conclusion says "We suggest that the transient may be one of a new class" I get a chill of oooh-aaahness down my spine. Especially when after a hundred days of observation, it disappeared from the sky with no explanation. Get your tinfoil hats out, because it gets even weirder. The object also appeared out of nowhere. It just wasn't there before. In fact, they don't even know where it is exactly located because it didn't behave like anything they know. Apparently, it can't be closer than 130 light-years but it can be as far as 11 billion light-years away. It's not in any known galaxy either. And they have ruled out a supernova too. It's something that they have never encountered before. In other words: they don't have a single clue about where or what the heck this thing is. The shape of the light curve is inconsistent with microlensing. In addition to being inconsistent with all known supernova types, is not matched to any spectrum in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey database. The only thing the astronomers—working on the Supernova Cosmology Project—can tell is that it appeared all of the sudden in the direction of a cluster with the catchy name of CL 1432.5+3332.8, about 8.2 billion light-years away. Hubble caught a spark that continued to brighten during a 100-day period, peaking at the 21st magnitude, only to fade away in the same period of time. Apparently, a scientist at the LHC declared that the object is similar to the flash that an Imperial Star Destroyer does when reaching Warp 10. Either that or some dust on the Hubble lenses, so someone tell NASA to get some Windex up there too. [Sky and Telescope] the accual paper is here http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/0809/0809.1648v1.pdf Current Mood: nerdy (Comment on this)

2:05 pm	I am a rock Shocked, shocked I am You are a Earthbender! The first earthbenders were taught by the Badgermoles. Earthbenders are strong, and face combat head on with direct attacks. Rooting is an important concept in earthbending: Being able to connect to the earth yet move freely like a tree. Some earthbenders rely on muscle alone when they bend, while the more powerful earthbenders will wait and listen to the earth. Which Element do you Bend?
