 analysis of 1980 census data, finds a relative deprivation effect on two crimes in cities as compared with suburbs, but, even when relative deprivation is controlled, the suburbanization-crime relationship persists. The participant-movement explanation, on the other hand, is found to involve unrealistic assumptions about the movements of offenders. It is proposed that the unexplained part of the relationship between suburbanization and central-city crime is an arbitrary product of the effect of the city suburb boundary location on the denominator of the crime rate. It is demonstrated that such an effect can occur even in the absence of any movement of offenders between suburb and city.Looks like you wasted no time, that's a nice free win.

In standard I got a Millhouse from Syndragosa against a filthy agro Paladin and I played around with him a bit, got Shudderwock and a couple of other legendaries and with my Leyline elementals I had low cost legendaries from shudderwock but it meant he got 0 mana on spells again. Dude cracked both times not even doing it remotely properly. I don't expect agro Paladins to be the quickest thinkers but I guess if it's anything besides playing Lost in the Jungle on turn 1 this game is just too complicated.Jess Hall uses botanical, anatomical and cellular imagery to reclaim historically feminine practices, including embroidery, watercolour painting and textiles. Hall contemplates the environment and climate change by exploring the liminal spaces between art and science and the use of intensive hand-made processes. Her embroideries and works on paper use hybrid forms joined together through repetition and pattern to articulate an imaginary science influenced by Australian and European flora.
The exhibition includes the launch of a series of silk scarves based on Hall’s art practice, re-imagined as textile designs.
They scared the pants off me as a child, but forty years later no matter how long the evening has been I couldn't contemplate going to bed without having cleaned my teeth.
It may have been a toothpaste commercial, but I think it was a public information thing.
Does anyone know of an online archive site where I can view this?
I think some of the Central Office of Information (COI) Public Information Fillers can be viewed on the British Film Institute (BFI) web site. I Don't think the one you descibe is there. It does ring a bell, but I can't be sure if it is a Public Information film or commercial either...
Any of these xoll?
Yes I remember it too, I loved that ad!
Many thanks Tony. Your link doesn't include what I'm looking for, but it does contain some cracking stuff.

alien77What Is The Purpose Of This Site?Dopamine increases the gain of the input-output response of rat prefrontal pyramidal neurons.

Dopaminergic modulation of prefrontal cortical activity is known to affect cognitive functions like working memory. Little consensus on the role of dopamine modulation has been achieved, however, in part because quantities directly relating to the neuronal substrate of working memory are difficult to measure. Here we show that dopamine increases the gain of the frequency-current relationship of layer 5 pyramidal neurons in vitro in response to noisy input currents. The gain increase could be attributed to a reduction of the slow afterhyperpolarization by dopamine. Dopamine also increases neuronal excitability by shifting the input-output functions to lower inputs. The modulation of these response properties is mainly mediated by D1 receptors. Integrate-and-fire neurons were fitted to the experimentally recorded input-output functions and recurrently connected in a model network. The gain increase induced by dopamine application facilitated and stabilized persistent activity in this network. The results support the hypothesis that catecholamines increase the neuronal gain and suggest that dopamine improves working memory via gain modulation.Kick the Dog: When a character does something evil for no apparent gain, because the author wants to demonstrate that he’s not a nice guy and shift audience sympathy away from him.
Richard Lynch, who plays the ultra-creepy villain in Invasion U.S.A., does an awful lot of dog-kicking throughout the film. In the opening scene, he poses as a U.S. Coast Guard who welcomes a dozen refugees (who are helpless adrift at sea) before gunning them all down… it’s later revealed he even gunned down the men who helped him gun down the refugees. In his next major scene, he throws an injured woman out the upper-floor window of a building after shooting Billy Drago’s pecker off. Not long after that, he blows up a suburban neighborhood with a rocket launcher while apparently using the infinite ammo cheat.
In case you’re wondering why this movie sounds so uncharacteristically expensive for a Cannon film, it’s because the locations were scheduled for demolition anyway according to the documentary Electric Boogaloo: The Wild, Untold Story of Cannon Films. I spoke about it a few days ago and it’s currently on Netflix Instant. You should check it out.
Meanwhile, our reluctant hero is a retired CIA agent living in the Everglades. He’s asked to come back for one last assignment, but refuses on the grounds he’s perfectly happy doing… well, whatever the hell it is he’s doing in the Everglades. As far as I can tell, his life mostly involves driving around aimlessly in an airboat, trapping alligators, and watching an armadillo drink milk from a dog bowl. What’s great about director Joseph Zito is he’s smart enough to limit these necessary but boring scenes. It won’t be long until Lynch’s men show up to kill Chuck’s only friend and explode his house.
Why doesn’t he kill him? Because the movie would have been over then.
Lynch’s master plan involves flooding the United States with a hundred or so terrorists who will pose as policemen and civilians in between random bombings and mass shootings. Keeping with Midnight Movies’ theme this month, this all takes place during Christmas. The only problem is Lynch has nightmares about Chuck Norris every night, in which Norris tells him, “It’s time to die,” before blowing his brains out.
It’s unclear if this event really happened or if Norris somehow read the bad guy’s dream journal. If it really did happen, you would think Norris would feel kind of bad about letting the mass murderer go when he could have easily shot him, but let’s face it: few of Norris’s movies are complex enough to worry about character development and things as inconsequential as feelings.
That’s not really a complaint, either. Back then, we all knew exactly what we were getting from Chuck Norris films and few of them ever promised to be anything more. They did so well commercially because they appeased to moviegoers’ desire to see something stupidly entertaining, the operative word here being “entertaining.” There’s something pure about Invasion U.S.A., which has some amazing stunts, even if the logic leading up to those trailer moments are inexplicable.
Consider the shootout in a mall. Two bad guys come crashing through a plate-glass window in a pickup truck. You’d think after hearing all the gunfire and explosions inside, most of the people in the parking lot would have scattered. Yet a woman pauses to scream obscenities at the henchmen for nearly running her over. Here’s something you won’t see in a Matt Damon film: the bad guys take a handful of her blonde hair and drive off with her hanging from the side of the truck while Chuck Norris pursues them in a commandeered convertible.
And honestly, a lot of it is cool. Just because Chuck Norris has the emotional complexity of a turd, it doesn’t mean his juvenile and absurdly violent fantasies aren’t valid forms of art. Invasion U.S.A. is among his most stupidly spectacular films.
This is a good scenario.  Get the car.  Here's how you should proceed:

Let's assume your student loan interest rate is 6%.    Now, say, you car payment has an interest rate of 3%.  Even though you didn't buy the whole car with cash, the fact that you are paying down your student loans is giving you a net benefit from NOT buying the car outright, but paying down your debt.  Your debts have a priority, but you are financially stable, so you can make it work to your benefit.

Figure out which options yield a lower interest rate for you, and go with that!  It may very well be better to pay the car first and then tackle the loans, I'm not sure what the rates are in your situation.

  But, don't pay more than you have to.Released Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo has slammed reports of threats of quitting Portugal's World Cup squad.
Claims detailed the striker's unhappiness with being dropped for the last-16 win over Switzerland and how he had allegedly demanded to start the next game or pack his bags and go home.
Portugal released a statment on Thursday officially denying the report, adding that Ronaldo demonstrated his “dedication" by coming off the bench having been dropped over a row about being substituted in the previous match.
Ronaldo tweeted a picture of the Selecao's celebrations with the caption: “A group too close to be broken by outside forces.
“A nation too brave to let itself be frightened by any adversary. A team in the truest sense of the word, which will fight for the dream until the end! Believe with us! Come on, Portugal!"Your participation is key to
