alike, they should just know I’m right about the concepts of advanced nuclear). However, I believe that a strong point, though causing a direct retalitary response, may still provide a seed which grows as they (hopefully will) grow in understanding. I used to believe nuclear was bad, too.
I like to imagine how a win – win solution to the real challenges that historically caused so much antagonism would be taken by the hard headed. If an oil guy (which also doesn’t believe in the science behind excess CO2 caused warming and acidification) found out that his oil can save the biosphere, surely he would not indulge his ideological belief to the point of not selling oil.
In this example, the biosphere can be saved – unless the small carbon tax necessary to grow an olivine extraction industry, is too much. With such a tax comes more use of oil (in the meantime) by necessitating diesel for large volumes of olivine extraction for the actual reversal of atmospheric CO2 content via mineral sequestration.
I do not yet understand a win-win for the RE verses nuclear debate, but I’m sure there is a way for integration, somehow.This course is suitable for: * managers in the private and public sectors responsible for commercial and policy problem-solving in their organisation; * scientists wanting to take their research into practical applications; * officers of organisations such as UNESCO, the European Commission, and ministries in national governments; * young people wanting to engage in problem solving; * citizens wanting to formulate arguments for or against top-down policies; * or members of the general public motivated by curiosity or wanting to understand better the world we live in.[Found on this site](http://m14forum.com/broken-arrow/105906-saw-choices.html)

"One is a raker gauge. It is marked E. C. Atkins &amp; Co. Indpls, Ind and has numerous patent dates from May 5, 1874 to Ja 1888. The raker teeth remove shavings that the cutter teeth have severed from the wood. For a saw to work best the raker teeth must be adjusted to type of wood and other factors. The depth of the rakers below the cutter teeth was determined by using a tool called a raker gage (gauge) or raker depth gage (gauge)"

[Here is a picture](http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad54/LEVERACTIONSHOOTERS/CROSSCUT%20SAWS/DISSTONSAW8.jpg~original)We construct quarterly series of the revenues, expenditures, and debt outstanding for Japan from 1980 to 2010, and analyze the sustainability of the fiscal policy. We pursue three approaches to examine the sustainability. First, we calculate the minimum tax rate that stabilizes the debt to GDP ratio given the future government expenditures. Using 2010 as the base year, we find that the government revenue to GDP ratio must rise permanently to 40%-47% (from the current 33%) to stabilize the debt to GDP ratio. Second, we estimate the response of the primary surplus when the debt to GDP ratio increases. We allow the relationship to fluctuate between two "regimes" using a Markov switching model. In both regimes, the primary surplus to GDP ratio fails to respond positively to debt, which suggests the process is explosive. Finally, we estimate a fiscal policy function and a monetary policy function with Markov switching. We find that the fiscal policy is "active" (the tax revenues do not rise when the debt increases) and the monetary policy is "passive" (the interest rate does not react to the inflation rate sufficiently) in both regimes. These results suggest that the current fiscal situation for the Japanese government is not sustainable.
The prices of vehicle are steadily rising, and because of this, many people have a difficult time finding a vehicle that they can afford. Fortunately, there are longer loan terms that can cause the monthly payment to be lower. The downside to this is that people will end up having a car loan for a considerable amount of time. When financing a vehicle for a considerable amount of years, your vehicle may start experiencing mechanical problems, but you will still be forced to pay your monthly payment. In order to combat this problem, many people now consider leasing their vehicle. With a lease, your monthly payments will be lower, your loan term will be for a shorter amount of time, and you will be able to get a new vehicle every few years.
One of the first benefits of a lease as compared to financing a vehicle is that your monthly payment will be lower. There are many factors that make the monthly payment lower. First, when you are financing a vehicle, you are paying for the entire vehicle. Therefore, if the vehicle is $15,000 or $30,000, you will have to get a loan for the total amount. If you have a down payment, you may not have to get the total amount, but you will still have to get a large loan. With a lease, you are not paying for the cost of the vehicle; therefore, your monthly payment is going to be lower.
A second benefit of a lease is that the loan term is shorter. With most vehicles that are financed, the loan terms can be for six or seven years. By this time, the warranties have expired, and the vehicles have accumulated many miles. In other words, the owner will be looking at getting mechanical failures fixed as the end of the loan term nears. With a lease, the loan term is much shorter. Most lease terms are only for three years, and this allows the vehicle to still be under warranty during the duration of the loan term. Since the vehicle will still be under warranty, any mechanical issues can be repaired at the dealership, but most importantly, these repairs will not cost the owner any money.
A final benefit of a lease is that you can upgrade your vehicle every few years. With many of us, we often see the latest model of a vehicle, and we desire to get that vehicle. If we are financing a vehicle, then this is not possible because the loan will have to be paid off before getting a new loan. If you decide to trade in the vehicle, then the remaining loan balance will be placed on top of the new loan. This will cause your payment to be extremely expensive. With a lease, you will simply have to return your vehicle at the end of the lease agreement, and you will be able to begin a new lease. In most cases, your monthly payment of the new lease will be about the same as the former lease. Therefore, you can get a new vehicle every few years without putting an undue hardship on your finances.
Car leases are a great option when it comes to getting a new vehicle. While many people did not consider this option years ago, it is becoming a very popular option today. Many people now understand that leasing a car is a great option, and it allows them to always have an updated vehicle. With a lease, people will have a lower car payment, complete the lease terms quicker, and have the opportunity to get a new vehicle faster than they would when purchasing a vehicle.Mike Kobani | Forward

The video shows 3D models being match lit into photographic backplates with little more user input than to define vanishing points and draw round light sources in the image.
No scene geometry is required, and nor are measurement data or photos from alternate viewpoints.
The results include advanced illumination feature such as colour bleeding and can even be animated – check out the part at 02:20 in which virtual pool balls are added to a photo after outlining the cushions of the table.
The system even mimics shafts of light – simply by drawing two bounding boxes on the image.
According to the voiceover, the algorithm Karsch and his colleagues have developed estimates the albedo and direct lighting in the scene semi-automatically, then refines the lighting model according to the user input.
Karsch – a PhD student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign – is presenting the research at Siggraph Asia. Definitely one to check out if you plan to attend the show.

username_0: ## Description

When using `BindQuery()`, url query param like `\` (%5C) will be escaped to `\\`

## How to reproduce

I have a raw url query param named `key`:  
`key=|.\x8d\x99\xe00MV`
after encoding uri, it will be like:  
`key=%7C.%5Cx8d%5Cx99%5Cxe00MV`

In the server, I simply bind the query to the struct:
