I have a fitness test upcoming for the Army so I had to buy a pair of runners to get back doing decent distances on the road. I figured that gym work is well and good up to a point but my endurence based cardio was lacking.<br />
<br />
So new shoes! Having searched the stores in my area (Galway, Ireland), I found that none stocked my size, 14 US. Amazon.com provided me with a large selection so I settled for a medium range <a href="http://www.amazon.com/ASICS-GT-1000-Running-Lightning-Electric/dp/B007K5X5ZU/ref=as_li_tf_mfw?&linkCode=wey&tag=liantiofmcco-20" target="_blank">ASICS Men's GT-1000 Running Shoe</a> that was on special at $69.99<br />
<br />
Keep in mind that this is the first time that I've bought shoes from the internet, I do trust Amazon but I don't trust shoemakers, especially at the larger sizes were they can vary by a few centimeters in some cases! Luckily this time, I had no such issues *phew!*<br />
<br />
The trainers arrived a few weeks later and I've been running in them for the past week. My feet have now adjusted to them which was considerably quicker than most other runners I've gotten. There was very little in the way of blisters or other sores but I noticed that the arch seems to be quite far forward. This required a bit of adjustment but wasn't uncomfortable.<br />
<br />
As for the shoe itself, it is well put together. Easy on the eye as a "generic" and is comfortable for the Christmas shopping that I've been doing the last while! Its one of those shoes you think should be in the $125 range in that regard. <br />
<br />
I used these runners at the gym twice as well and once for laps on a football field. They held up well in this multi-disipline role and cleaning them was very easy. It gave me flexibility as a "one size fits all" shoe, but as it doesn't offer ankle support I will not be doing any cross country training in them.<br />
<br />
Appearently, however, this shoe is prone to mesh deterioration over time with holes appearing by the big toe. While mine haven't had this problem yet (keep in mind that it could be a sizing issue), I am keeping an eye on it. Having said that, I don't know of many running shoes for as low as $50 that will last more than a season of proper training. Its something to thing about.<br />
<br />

In conclusion, given the awesome price, comfort and flexibility I'm going to give this running shoe a 4/5.<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I
am please to announce that as of today, the Eleutherian Guard have
released funding and begun upgrading the Eleutherian Marines for Special
Operations within the cluster.<br /><br />The Eleutherian Marines are an
elite planetary and station bound force attached to the Eleutherian
Guard. The Eleutherian Marines primary role is working with the
Eleutherian Guard for asset security, Installation defence, humanitarian
relief, operational support, logistical and administration tasks. The
Eleutherian Guard have assisted their compatriots in transportation and
military operational support. Both units have worked together since
their inception with the common goal of Gallente Security.<br /><br />Conventionally,
only a select few outside of Special Forces have received immortality
upgrades since the release of the Templar Sleeper technology but with
the operational success the <a class="warn" href="http://synenose.com/gmvakb/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="synenose.com/gmvakb/">Villore Accords Alliance</a>

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I hope give you guys some insights i discovered while
playing dust. If i'm wrong with anything, call me out! I'm by no means a
pro</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><u><span class="bbc_u"> </span></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><u><span class="bbc_u">ISK or AUR?</span></u><br />ISK, now stfu<br /><br /><u><span class="bbc_u">Classes</span></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />There are 7 or 8 classes in DUST, 4 of them are useful.<br /><br />Assault - Well rounded<br /><br />Scout - Weak but fast<br /><br />Heavy - Tough but slow<br /><br />Logistics - 2 Equipment slots, weak, normal speed</span><br />
<br />
<u><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The toys</span></span></u><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /><u><span class="bbc_u">Vehicles</span></u><br /><br />Light
Attack - I like these, there fast, durable and its fun mowing down
people. They are very vulnerable if your driving solo, don't stop to man
the turret. Its open top allows players to kill you without having to
take the vehicle out. You also won't see the family of homing rockets
sniffing your ass out<br /><br />Heavy Attack - I love these things. Talk
about bring a sledgehammer to a stick fight! If your fitting these, put
your secondary small turrets as machine guns. This dissuades the team
mates who get in with you from shooting tanks. That's what your primary
is for, your secondary is for taking our the guys sneaking around your
flank with a swarm launcher. If you're in someones tank, watch his back
while he focuses on the bigger threats. You can't do jack to a tank with
a machine gun. I've lasted full games (READ: No deaths!) in these
things, just be smart with your reps and watch your 6<br /><br />Dropships -
Another great toy. They can survive 2 direct swarm launcher hits but
not much more. Be smart with your reps and hid behind buildings if you
have to! Breaking line of sight with the swarm rockets will get them to
run into whatever your hiding behind... at least until they implement
destructible buildings. Because they travel at speed, i would fit these
with some form of AOE rocket, unless you have a sniper machine gunner.
For big maps these for great for troop transport and air cover<br /><br /><u><span class="bbc_u">Weapons</span></u><br /><br />Assault
rifles - I get good results looking down the sights when the target is
>20m away, any closer, just hip fire and aim for center of mass.
Reload at every opportunity! You'd be surprised how tough some rigs can
be.<br /><br />Sniper Rifles - I like snipers but for the most part, there
horribly underpowered. I use the one that i have to charge for about 2
seconds before firing and unless i get a headshot or an injured player,
the best i can do is get him down to about 10% amour and of course they
then run into cover. Only useful if your way off the fight and have a
good angle on a enemy spawn point or capture point. On 1 map the hostile
MCC hovers close to a silo, i sit about 100m away from the silo and as
the hostile players spawn and jump out of the underside bay of the MCC
they get killed the minute they hit the floor. Easy points<br /><br />Shotguns
- the free militia shotgun is 1 shot kill at close range center of
mass. Nuff said! Crap at range but at medium range you can "tag" a few
people if your luck and get some points if your team mate can finish him
off<br /><br />Laser rifles - Very powerful but look gay, sound gay, you can were the shot comes from (gay). Don't touch them<br /><br />Swarm Launchers - Militia version great for free anti tank, sound cool<br /><br />Heavy
Machine Gun - Multi barreled and all fulled with death. Suffers at
range but not unmanageable. Good for suppressing and mowing down at
close ranges. Can overheat and burn though ammo very fast<br /><br />Grenades - Use them<br /><br /><span class="bbc_u">Sub Note - Sidearms</span><br /><br />Submachine
guns - Far superior than pistols, greater mag size, damage and rate of
fire. Useful for very close combat but have shit range</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-size: large;"><span class="bbc_u">How to score points in DUST</span> <- This is the important question</span></u><br /><br /><u><span class="bbc_u">Roles and equipment</span></u><br /><br />Killing
- Killing gives you 50 points while assists will give you 25 points. If
you run into a group is it better to kill one and get slaughtered? Or
"tag" 3 or 4 of them? Answer: Neither, grenade the fuckers!! Ok that was
a trick question. Personally i would kill one and with the rest of my
mag tag everyone. Any buddies behind will deal with the rest<br /><br />Reviving
- Equipement slot lets you fit a nanite injector. Reviving downed
teammates gives you 60 points. if there's a bunch of friendlies holding a
point in the map i swap into my "medic" class and do what i can there.
Farming dead bodies mmmmm...<br /><br />Spawn Beacons - 25 points per team
member spawn. But place them in useful locations because you can only
place 1 of them. If your teammate drops one ,place it further away from
it, gives people a choice of were to spawn. Spawn beacons have a limited
number of times they can be spawned on, so drop a new one down if you
die and have to re spawn. Camp hostile beacons for kills<br /><br />Ammo
Resupply - I forget the name of these things, they look like half orbs
of light then grow and glow... I think you earn 10 points per resupply,
and it can be a partial resupply. Place these in high traffic areas or
corridors. You can place 2 so you can leave another one further away.<br /><br />Vehicle
Assist Kills - If your in a vehicle and someone in another turret makes
a kill, you earn 35 points + 25 points for assist. if you make the
kill, you get 35 point + 50 points<br /><br />[These are the only methods i
have tested for now, afaik there is some form of remote repper that i
haven't used and remote explosives that might score you more points]<br />Becoming MVP<br /><br />In
DUST, becoming MVP is nothing to do with your K/D ratio. Its all about
the points you score. Reviving scores you more points that killing. I've
been top of my team with 3 kills and 3 deaths.</span> <br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-size: large;">Situational Awareness </span></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><u><span style="font-size: small;"><span class="bbc_u">Mission Types</span></span></u><br /><br />Assault - Team Deathmatch<br />Lets
be honest, most of these fight turn into slug fests with the winners
being whoever brings the most tanks to the field. When playing Assault
matches i go for long range setups <br /><br />Skirmish - Point Capture Match<br />These
require more skill and time than Assault. Have a few setups with close
range and support modules that you might find useful (Drop Uplinks and
Nanohives). <br /><br /><u><span class="bbc_u">Loadouts </span></u><br /><br />This all
depends on gameplay style and the mission. I've left out tanking talk
as it really depends on the suit your wearing. I prefer Armour, i find
you get more of a buffer and the fact that shields rep themselves over
time it makes sense to have a Armour repper</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I tend to have 5 or 6
load outs that i can swap between in a match, depending on the map, the
type of game, my teams competency and the enemy teams competency.<br /><br />Loadout Name: Light Assault<br />Using
a normal Caldari Assault Suit, add an Assault Rifle of your choice and
price range, AP grenades and a Drop Uplink in equipment slot. This
gives me the option of mounting a proper attack and reinforcing it if
need be. Say i take a point, i'd hide a drop uplink out of view so if i
get sniped or the point if rushed, i'm back in the fight after 10
seconds in something heavier etc<br /><br />Loadout Name: Close Range Sniper<br />Bit
of a misleading name, basically i use a Charged Sniper Rifle with a Sub
Machine Gun as my sidearm. I also have a Drop Uplink so when i get to
my sniping spot i can respawn close to it if I'm counter sniped. This
fit is for spawning when i don't know my surroundings ergo, the sub
machine gun. Having bought the Mercenary pack from the PSN store, i use
the "Dragonfly" Scout suit.<br /><br />Loadout Name: Long Range Sniper<br />The
exact same sniper as above but i use the Logi suit, which gives me 2
equipment slots for a nanohive and an uplink, this lets me be self
sufficient.<br /><br />Loadout Name: Logi Healer<br />Basically a Logi set up
with a healer set up. You have 2 equipment slots for really easy point
farming. I use a Nanite Auto-injector and a nanohive. I have swapped out
this for a remote repper but having realised that you don't get points
repping people i ditched it. Besides, the auto-injector does the job.
For offence i opt for an Assault Rifle or a shotgun<br /><br />Loadout Name: Logi Support<br />Same a above but with Drop Uplink and a nanohive. This is a more long range set up so i go for an Assault Rifle over the shotgun<br /><br />Loadout Name: Close Combat<br />I
might fit 2 similar fits for close combat with different (usually
light) suits, but my thinking behind these fits usually revolve around
Shotguns, submachine guns and grenades. Think blaster thorax, get up in
the enemies face with something nimble and fast and let fly. Again, have
a think about the equipment you might need. </span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17784532948007512665noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820334872992075847.post-51102473538825211552012-11-14T15:28:00.003-08:002012-11-14T15:34:36.975-08:00Facebook Offline?!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

After spawning in, i encountered a fresh spawn and held him up with no ammo, After letting him go we engage again in a barn where he was killed. Then we have a quick lesson in silhouetting and how it is bad for your health <br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I finally
got around to playing DayZ and on Saturday was shown around one of the newer
supported maps, Namalsk but a friend during a lock in at 091labs in Galway (
@091labs / 091labs.com ).</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Though Namalsk
is smaller than Chernarus, it hosts higher military drops, less food and water,
heat </span></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-size: small;">packs that actually have a purpose and feels a lot more like a zombie
apocolypes than other maps. One of the main cities, Vorkuta, to me looks
similar to Pripyat. Pripyat was the abandoned city close to where the Chernobyl
Nuclear plant.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Anyway,
onto the change log (<a href="http://www.nightstalkers.cz/en_index_dn.php" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Source</span></a>)</span></span></div>

also for the original Arma II buildings and objects</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Improved fight with the

temperature, and also lowered chances for getting food and water</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Increased activity (count)
of the infected at the certain locations / objects</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">New clothes (inspired by <a href="http://image.shutterstock.com/display_pic_with_logo/102781/102781,1266943348,1/stock-photo-russian-soldier-in-winter-uniform-with-the-kalashnikov-machine-gun-on-the-forest-background-47308615.jpg"><span style="color: blue;">this uniform</span></a>), which does have a real impact
on your body's temperature</span></span></li>

<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Spawn of the helicrash
events disabled, helicrash loot is available in smaller amount on the

<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Spawn of the debris, wrecks
and dead bodies is turned off</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">New types of the infected
characters (better fitting to the situation on Namalsk)</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Multiplayer DayZ mission

<li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">All the needed changes are
done outside of the DayZ modification, so DayZ: Namalsk requires the <b>official
version</b> of DayZ modification</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">There is
an underground bunker somewhere on the map which a friend and I explored on
Saturday and I found something quite strange :D </span></span></div>

The game is set as a zombie apocalypse and is one of the new breeds of survival MMO's that are starting to game popularity and footing. The uniqueness of this game is a follow on from the DayZ mod for Arma 2, were you as a survivalist, must keep on the move scavenging and hunting for food, water and medical supplies, collecting weapons and essential equipment along your way. Another aspect of DayZ and War Z follow Eve Online's hardcore no nonsense PVP policy. To elaborate further: All PVP is non consensual and 100% consequential - </span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">You run into someone and regardless of whether your opponent is friendly or not, you can blast him at your discretion (unless he blasts you first) and when you die, that's it! No second chances, no "MEDIC!!!", you respawn with nothing more than the starter kit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">War Z has added a softcore mode to this by allowing micro-transactions to fund a lot of the production cost (along with private server rental) and picking what you spawn with. But the game has attracted severe criticism on its forums, citing several severe bugs that break the game completely. While i understand its in Alpha... something as simple as zombies being stuck is ridiculous for a zombie game! Some who have paid are not even able to access the game, despite having received their serial codes. Players paid for various "levels" of early access content but are now demanding refunds for the game that has apparently been in production for the last 2 years, even though the company itself, Hammerpoint Interactive, haven't been seen since before May 2012 (The website http://thewarz.com/ was registered on the 24th/May/2012). Some people have gone further to say its an out and out scam, something i am on the fence about. Hammerpoint, and by extension, War Z have an awful lot to prove before they should straight out ask for down payments.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">From the videos that have started to appear on the web (YouTube etc) the bugs are very noticeable, but the game appears slick. This might have something to do with the <span class="st">déjà vu of seeing all the work done before on War Inc, a free to play FPS. War Z appears to be a modded and reskined version! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="st">While i can't deny that i am excited about the new breed of MMO's on the up and coming, i will be holding out on War Z until a full release. There are to many unanswered questions for me to be confident in putting down money. Furthermore, why would i pay to be a QA tester? We have a DayZ Standalone and War Z in the pipeline - Get them when they've been trialled by fire and proven themselves</span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17784532948007512665noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820334872992075847.post-52719866958466399732012-10-09T06:06:00.002-07:002012-10-09T06:06:21.544-07:00Red Bull Stratos<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Best of luck to the Stratos team hoping to break the freefall skydiving record today</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17784532948007512665noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820334872992075847.post-1219979601890282402012-09-26T14:07:00.000-07:002012-09-26T14:07:14.368-07:00Pat Falvey - Motivational Speaker addresses Students of Galway/Mayo Institute of Technology<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

I ditches class rep training (would have been my 4th time doing it) and class
to attend a talk with Pat Falvey, self made <span class="usercontent">Entrepreneur,
Motivational Speaker, Leader, Adventurer, Explorer, Team trainer,
Environmentalist, Author, Photographer and Film producer. Before you read (and
listen) on, I apologise for the sub-standard sound, I recorded this using a Dictaphone

little glitchy at times</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="usercontent">Pat is a very energetic speaker who talked with us
about life lessons, from growing up with his Grandmother, to his journeys in
the deserts, through the jungles and around glaciers. He shared a very moving
account of his near death expedition on Mount Everest, and his successful
expedition the next year.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="usercontent">To wrap up an awesome hour, he took out of his pocket,
a €20 note and asked “Who wants this?” I kind of thought that this was a strange
thing to do in a room full of students, but as a metaphorical statement, I
understood what he was getting at. After everyone put up their hand, he asked
again and again and again "Who wants this?!" When I noticed people
starting to move down the aisle to get the money, I leapt from my seat and
hopped over the desk and grabbed it. Talk about a rush!! I thought he'd pull
away at the last second. But despite being €20 richer, I learnt an invaluable
lesson: Though it might seem tough to put yourself out there in front of a room
full strangers (in this case students and teachers) with a determination and
zeal, you have so much more to gain than what you have to lose. You have to put
yourself forward in order to get what you want, even if it means exposing
yourself to a little ridicule if you fail. Nothing is ever going to get dropped
into your lap. Pat wasn’t going to give the €20 to the person whose hand went
up first! I had nothing to lose by standing up and biting, I had €20 to lose by
not, had he pulled away I still would have learnt the lesson... </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Dublin’s first (of hopefully many) <a href="http://www.makerfairedublin.com/">Mini-Makerfaire</a> was held last month on July the 14th in conjunction with the “Hack the City” event hosted by the <a href="http://sciencegallery.com/">Science Gallery</a>. 091 Labs made an appearance alongside other Irish and UK Hackerspaces, <a href="http://tog.ie/">TOG</a> and <a href="http://www.buildbrighton.com/blog/">Build Brighton</a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Eight of us made the trip from Galway late Friday evening after some
hastily “hacking” together travel and accommodation plans so we would be
strategically poised for an early start on Saturday morning and not
travel-lagged.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were blessed with a great day that didn’t deter the enthusiastic
and energetic crowd from converging on the Faire and the Science
Gallery. I believe the final figure of attendees was in the region of
5,500 peeps!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
091 Labs showed off some of our current projects including Alana’s
custom made Model Train control unit, a cider homebrew, my Aeroquad
QuadRotor (which I got permission to fly from the Irish Aviation
Authority at the event but no thanks to Customs and Revenue, didn’t have
a battery for it – <a href="http://tinyurl.com/d7sbsc6">http://tinyurl.com/d7sbsc6</a>), Padraic and Carles’ “Labs-On, Labs-Off” status system [and <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codeskraps.lolo">Android app</a> - P.], Oisin’s photoresistor-based theremin and others.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Among the projects on display at Makerfaire there was an impressive
amount of hacking. There were 3D Printers, laser cutters, homemade
submarines as well as etching and soldering classes.</div>

The highlight of my day was meeting an 80 odd year old lady who was
learning about coding and circuit construction using the Arduino Uno!
Never too late eh?</div>

Big thanks from all of us in 091 Labs to the organisers for Dublin

<p>His family says he died from complications from heart surgery he had earlier this month.</p>
<p>He walked on the Moon on 20 July 1969, famously describing the event as "one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind".</p>
<p>Last November Armstrong received the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest US civilian award.</p>
<p>He was the commander of the Apollo 11 spacecraft. He and fellow astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin spent nearly three hours walking on the moon.</p>
<p>'Reluctant hero'</p>
<p>Armstrong, who was raised in Ohio, took his first flight aged six with his father and formed a lifelong passion for flying.</p>
<p>He flew Navy fighter jets during the Korean War in the 1950s, and joined the US space programme in 1962.</p>
<p>Correspondents say Armstrong remained modest and never allowed himself to be caught up in the glamour of space exploration.</p>
<p>"I am, and ever will be, a white-socks, pocket-protector, nerdy engineer," he said in February 2000, in a rare public appearance.</p>
<p>In a statement, his family praised him as a "reluctant American hero"who had "served his nation proudly, as a navy fighter pilot, test pilot, and astronaut".</p>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">So I had
a fun day in Galway.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">After
finishing at a physiotherapist I walked into town to run a number of errant’s,
getting rent from the bank, sorting out tax forms (I found I’m owed €600 back,
CHA-CHING!), talking to revenue and Citizens Information about a start up
company etc etc I headed to the Galway hacker/maker space, 091labs, for a coke
and to chill when I noticed some Evangelical group setting up speakers and a
tent in the middle of Eyre Square. I thought nothing of it and went to the
space which is just above Kennedy’s pub.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I sat
down and started doing some work on one of the spare computers and I started
hearing some serious noise coming from the outside, the windows being open
since it was a damn nice day!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I then
had an "awww shit" moment when I see preachers and choir girls
dancing and singing to their hearts content. Now I’d like to start by saying
that I have no issue with bible bashers in general... they can waste their
lives, believing in the flying spaghetti monster or whatever deity they like<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>for all I care, but when someone tries to
shove it down my (or anyone else’s) throat, that’s when I get mad. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">So being
amongst like minded, but probably more intelligent people we decided to fight
fire with trolling and began to make signs and slogans, I won't lie... we had a
lot of fun</span></div>

don't have an </span></div>

excessive noise, causing noise pollution and ruining the atmosphere of one of

it amusing when two of them came up to me on separate occasions and separately
told me that "I wasn't allowed to do that" and "I <u>used</u> to be
Muslim and I would love to see me try do this in my country or in Afghanistan or in Saudi
Arabia" I thought to myself "wow, they can't understand or honour
free speech and in fact get madded by it so much that these fanatics would
actually want to see me punished to the same extent to what happens in their
own backward country" Considering that apostasy is punishable by death
according to Islam, the irony was not lost</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">I
however, stood firm, I endured 2 hours of basking in the sun and I can honestly
say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. There was the aspect of honest trolling that was
a kick unto itself, but it was the smiles that I brought to peoples face, the
thumbs up, the winks, the cheers and the laughs that 'I' did to cheer up
complete strangers. They knew that I was acting the maggot but at the same time
they appreciated the cheekiness of the situation and I genuinely believe that I
was photographed more in the time that I hung around than the preaching group.
I also got a lot of stick for what I was doing for whatever reason... I was
asked if I was unemployed to which I responded "No, I have a job and I'm
in college, what are you doing with your life?" She walked away visibly
hurt! I was told to fuck off by a brute in the crowd with tattoos up and down
his arm. So I told him to fuck off and the look of surprise on his face was
laughable, what was he expecting? I had a 5' girl try to take my sign so I just
held it up high out of her reach and asking her if Jesus would smite me down to
her level... He didn't.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">All this
happened just before and during an altercation with a do-gooder girl and my
friend Alanna who was holding a "LGBT equal rights" slogan and flag.
The girl came up behind my friend, grabbing the sign and flag and started
dragging her towards prospect hill. This was one of the girls who tried to
"reason" with me earlier. The sign was ripped to pieces and the girl
fell and claimed she was assaulted. The preacher of the group came over and
started waving his hands about and saying that he saw her do this, that and the
other. I thought he was an utter hypocrite for not only preaching utter shit
all day but also lying in an attempt to get one or all of us removed or
arrested. My friend told the police what happened and they said they saw the
whole thing and that the girl who tried to take the slogan was in the wrong.
They reprimanded her, told her that we had the right to protest (but said or
did nothing about the assault that they witnessed?!) <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and then left. </span></div>

somewhat spoilt our fun and about 20 minutes later we wrapped up. As we walked
away we notice one of the fanatics was following us. He got as far as the
bookies and we went inside for a well earned coke... Ah refreshing!</span><br />

Okay, explained like you're a five year-old, without oversimplification, and (hopefully) without sounding too biased:</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
What people call "Obamacare" is actually the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act. However, people were calling it "Obamacare" before
everyone even hammered out what it would <em>be</em>. It's a term mostly
used by people who don't like the PPACA, and it's become popularized in
part because PPACA is a really long and awkward name, even when you
turn it into an acronym like that.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
Anyway, the PPACA made a bunch of new rules regarding health care,
with the purpose of making health care more affordable for everyone.
Opponents of the PPACA, on the other hand, feel that the rules it makes
take away too many freedoms and force people (both individuals and
businesses) to do things they shouldn't have to.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
So what does it do? Well, here is everything, in the order of when it
goes into effect (because some of it happens later than other parts of
it):</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>Already in effect</strong>:</div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>It allows the Food and Drug Administration to approve more
generic drugs (making for more competition in the market to drive down
prices)</li>
<li>It increases the rebates on drugs people get through Medicare (so drugs cost less)</li>
<li>It establishes a non-profit group, that the government doesn't
directly control, to study different kinds of treatments to see what
works better and is the best use of money.</li>
<li>It makes chain restaurants like McDonalds display how many
calories are in all of their foods, so people can have an easier time
making choices to eat healthy.</li>
<li>It makes a "high-risk pool" for people with pre-existing
conditions. Basically, this is a way to slowly ease into getting rid of
"pre-existing conditions" altogether. For now, people who already have
health issues that would be considered "pre-existing conditions" can
still get insurance, but at different rates than people without them.</li>
<li>It renews some old policies, and calls for the appointment of various positions.</li>
<li>It creates a new 10% tax on indoor tanning booths.</li>
<li>It says that health insurance companies can no longer tell
customers that they won't get any more coverage because they have hit a
"lifetime limit". Basically, if someone has paid for life insurance,
that company can't tell that person that he's used that insurance too
much throughout his life so they won't cover him any more. They can't do
this for lifetime spending, and they're limited in how much they can do
this for yearly spending.</li>
<li>Kids can continue to be covered by their parents' health insurance until they're 26.</li>
<li>No more "pre-existing conditions" for kids under the age of 19.</li>
<li>Insurers have less ability to change the amount customers have to pay for their plans.</li>
<li>People in a "Medicare Gap" get a rebate to make up for the extra money they would otherwise have to spend.</li>
<li>Insurers can't just drop customers once they get sick.</li>
<li>Insurers have to tell customers what they're spending money on.
(Instead of just "administrative fee", they have to be more specific).</li>
<li>Insurers need to have an appeals process for when they turn down a claim, so customers have some manner of recourse <em>other</em> than a lawsuit when they're turned down.</li>
<li>New ways to stop fraud are created.</li>
<li>Medicare extends to smaller hospitals.</li>
<li>Medicare patients with chronic illnesses must be monitored more thoroughly.</li>
<li>Reduces the costs for some companies that handle benefits for the elderly.</li>
<li>A new website is made to give people insurance and health information.</li>
<li>A credit program is made that will make it easier for business to invest in new ways to treat illness.</li>
<li>A limit is placed on just how much of a percentage of the money
an insurer makes can be profit, to make sure they're not price-gouging
customers.</li>
<li>A limit is placed on what type of insurance accounts can be used
to pay for over-the-counter drugs without a prescription. Basically,
your insurer isn't paying for the Aspirin you bought for that hangover.</li>
<li>Employers need to list the benefits they provided to employees on their tax forms.</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>8/1/2012</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>Any health plans sold after this date must provide preventative care
(mammograms, colonoscopies, etc.) without requiring any sort of co-pay
or charge.</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>1/1/2013</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>If you make over $200,000 a year, your taxes go up a tiny bit (0.9%)</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>1/1/2014</strong></div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
This is when a lot of the really big changes happen.</div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>No more "pre-existing conditions". At all. People will be charged the same regardless of their medical history.</li>
<li>If you can afford insurance but do not get it, you will be
charged a fee. This is the "mandate" that people are talking about.
Basically, it's a trade-off for the "pre-existing conditions" bit,
saying that since insurers now <strong>have</strong> to cover you
regardless of what you have, you can't just wait to buy insurance until
you get sick. Otherwise no one would buy insurance until they needed it.
You can opt not to get insurance, but you'll have to pay the fee
instead, unless of course you're not buying insurance because you just
can't afford it.</li>
<li>Insurers now can't do annual spending caps. Their customers can get as much health care in a given year as they need.</li>
<li>Make it so more poor people can get Medicaid by making the low-income cut-off higher.</li>
<li>Small businesses get some tax credits for two years.</li>
<li>Businesses with over 50 employees must offer health insurance to full-time employees, or pay a penalty.</li>
<li>Limits how high of an annual deductible insurers can charge customers.</li>
<li>Cut some Medicare spending</li>
<li>Place a $2500 limit on tax-free spending on FSAs (accounts for
medical spending). Basically, people using these accounts now have to
pay taxes on any money over $2500 they put into them.</li>
<li>Establish health insurance exchanges and rebates for the lower
and middle-class, basically making it so they have an easier time
getting affordable medical coverage.</li>
<li>Congress and Congressional staff will only be offered the same
insurance offered to people in the insurance exchanges, rather than
Federal Insurance. Basically, we won't be footing their health care
bills any more than any other American citizen.</li>
<li>A new tax on pharmaceutical companies.</li>
<li>A new tax on the purchase of medical devices.</li>
<li>A new tax on insurance companies based on their market share.
Basically, the more of the market they control, the more they'll get
taxed.</li>
<li>The amount you can deduct from your taxes for medical expenses increases.</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>1/1/2015</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>Doctors' pay will be determined by the quality of their care, not how many people they treat.</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>1/1/2017</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>If any state can come up with their own plan, one which gives
citizens the same level of care at the same price as the PPACA, they can
ask the Secretary of Health and Human Resources for permission to do
their plan instead of the PPACA. So if they can get the same results
without, say, the mandate, they can be allowed to do so. Vermont, for
example, has expressed a desire to just go straight to single-payer (in
simple terms, everyone is covered, and medical expenses are paid by
taxpayers).</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>2018</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>All health care plans must now cover preventative care (not just the new ones).</li>
<li>A new tax on "Cadillac" health care plans (more expensive plans for rich people who want fancier coverage).</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<strong>2020</strong></div>
<ul style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
<li>The elimination of the "Medicare gap"</li>
</ul>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
Aaaaand that's it right there.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
The biggest thing opponents of the bill have against it is the
mandate. They claim that it forces people to buy insurance, and forcing
people to buy something is unconstitutional. Personally, I take the
opposite view, as it's not telling people to buy a specific thing, just
to have a specific type of thing, just like a part of the money we pay
in taxes pays for the police and firemen who protect us, this would have
us paying to ensure doctors can treat us for illness and injury.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
Plus, as previously mentioned, it's necessary if you're doing away
with "pre-existing conditions" because otherwise no one would get
insurance until they needed to use it, which defeats the purpose of
insurance.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">
Whew! Hope that answers the question!</div>

TL;DR<br />
<strong>Bob:</strong> Hi, insurance company. I'd like to buy some health insurance.<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> No. You had cancer when you were 3 years old, and the cancer could come back. We're not selling you health insurance.<br />
<strong>Bob:</strong> It's not my fault I got cancer when I was three! Besides, that was years ago!<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> If we sell insurance to you, we'll probably lose money, and we're not doing it.<br />
<strong>Bob:</strong> But I need insurance more than anyone! My cancer might come back!<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> We don't care. We're not selling you insurance.<br />
<strong>Obama:</strong> Hey, that's totally not fair. Bob is right, he does need insurance! Sell Bob some insurance.<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> If we have to, I guess.<br />
<strong>Mary:</strong> This is cool. Obama said the insurance company has to sell insurance to anyone who needs it.<br />
<strong>Sam:</strong> Hey, I have an idea. I'm going to stop paying
for health insurance. If I get sick, I can always go buy some insurance
then. The insurance company won't be able to say no, because Obama's
told them they have to sell it to anyone who needs it!<br />
<strong>Dave:</strong> that's a great idea! I'm not paying for health insurance either, at least not until I get sick.<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> Hey! If everyone stops paying for insurance, we'll go bankrupt!<br />
<strong>Obama:</strong> Oh come on Sam and Dave, that's not fair either.<br />
<strong>Dave:</strong> I don't care. It saves me money.<br />
<strong>Obama:</strong> Oh for god's sake. Sam, Dave, you have to
keep paying for health insurance, and not wait until you're sick. You
too, Mary and Bob.<br />
<strong>Mary:</strong> But I'm broke! I can't buy insurance! I just don't have any money.<br />
<strong>Obama:</strong> Mary, show me your piggy bank. Oh, wow, you
really are broke. Ok, tell you what. You still have to buy insurance,
but I'll help you pay 95% of the cost.<br />
<strong>Mary:</strong> thank you.<br />
<strong>Obama:</strong> I need an aspirin.<br />
<strong>Insurance company:</strong> We're not paying for that aspirin.<br />
