This clock style is my husband's favorite…I love it too. This dark brown and white clock has beautiful contrast. You can put YOUR name or logo on it if you'd like.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE: We have nine Waterford Logo clock sizes to choose from…in order to choose the right size, PLEASE make a newspaper cut out of the size you think you need. Cut it into a circle or square (depending on which you want to order) and tape the paper to your wall where you want to place it. This will give you a visual of how it will look.
COST: We realize our clocks cost more than the ones you can get at the big box stores. The main reason is that these clocks are not mass produced. We make our time pieces one at a time specifically for you and your space. Let's say you need a 36" spice orange Waterford Logo clock. Something so specific may be the perfect piece to set off your dining room, but it is not something the general population needs. So, you can't find it anywhere else besides our website. Making "one-offs" is not very cost effective for us, but we do it because we want to offer a huge selection, and making them "on demand" is the best way to accomplish that.
CLOCK FACES: Our faces are mostly printed. Some are photographs of antique clocks we LOVED. They look amazing, but they are PRINTED. I have an artist that will paint a Waterford Logo clock by hand, but it will take 3 months and cost $1500 for a 30".


What a difference Virginia Madsen makes. For the majority of Hell on Wheels' run, it seems like the show has had difficulty pinning down two of its more integral characters in Durant (Colm Meaney) and Lily Bell (Dominique McElligott). Now, with the simple addition of the talented Madsen as Durant's wife Hannah, the two are better framed against the backdrop of corruption and bitter jealously.
After a rather strong episode last week in which Durant played no direct part, but his presence was still largely felt in the actions of Lily, Bohannon (Anson Mount) and the Swede (Christopher Heyerdahl), 'The Lord's Day' sees fit to bring the railroad man back to the town that he built, to potentially spell ruin for someone he purported to care about.
As season 2 draws to a close, Hell on Wheels has brought in director Rod Lurie (The Contender, Straw Dogs) to helm an effective episode that sets up the season's two-hour finale next week. 'The Lord's Day' manages to surprise with some revelations about Bohannon's "breeding" and connections he made in Meridian before circumstances sent him out West. In addition to some revelatory dinner conversation, the episode also features Bohannon's awesomely casual, yet ominous torching of the Swede's belongings.
Much of the episode concerns the ramifications of what Lily and the Swede found while going over Durant's books. As the Swede mentioned, it's fraud, but what is there that anyone can, or even wants to do about it? Not taking any chances, the Durants decide that Lily's fate lies elsewhere. Unless, of course, the discussion Durant had with Elam (Common) was a simple negotiation leading to a dead Lily Bell in exchange for the land Elam's already putting a house on. This paints the Durants as particularly ruthless, seeing as how Lily helped keep the railroad from going under while Durant recuperated from his injuries. It also shows just how fragile Lily's circumstances are – considering the fact that she's a woman in a place with very little respect for them, and that she really has nothing else beyond her questionable employment with Durant's railroad.
Durant slogs through town, hopped up on opiates and leaning heavily on his cane, but manages what sounds like a threat to Sean McGinnes (Ben Esler) – who, like everybody else, may have been counting on Mr. Durant succumbing to his injuries. Not long after Durant was whisked away, his return may have initially restored normalcy, but considering things have more or less run smoothly in his absence, there's been a change in priorities for some folks in town. Lily's carrying on with Bohannon, Elam is happily unemployed, and the McGinnes brothers are free to swindle honest folks out of their bars and use Durant's land as a means of currency to accomplish such feats of malfeasance. Now, with Durant back in town, there's the sense that a certain comeuppance is due for all the changes that have happened while he wasn't looking.
The dinner scene could be the best part of the season. Hannah's questioning of Bohannon's past, and the revelation that his former father-in-law was a friend of the Durants puts him in a strange place while Doc and Hannah essentially begin phase one of pushing Lily out. One of the nice touches of the scene is watching Bohannon go from slouched roughneck to someone who's simply been hiding traces of his civility (why he even knows how to properly use utensils at the table). It's unclear whether Hannah or Thomas take note, or what they would even do with such a realization, but then again, this surprising addition to the tenacity of Durant seems to leave everyone off-guard.
Hannah later goes after Lily on her own, revealing she's aware of the particular arrangement she had with Durant, but doesn't seem particularly concerned by it – apparently, there have been others. Still, Hannah manages to kick Lily out of her train car in a rather heartless way, leaving the younger woman to gather her belongings and wind up putting Bohannon out of his quarters. In a touching scene, she suggests the two could just stay in Bohannon's car together, but he gently reminds Lily it's best not to test a man who is jealous or afraid for his livelihood – two things which pretty much sum up Durant's state of mind.
And while the Durants work on just how they'll push Lily out (or possibly kill her), the Swede fires another attack in his the war against the railroad. By sabotaging a steam engine, he manages to maim or kill several of the workers struggling to erect the bridge, but he does so by leaving a very telling calling card behind. At this point, there's no turning back for him or Bohannon, so the search is on for just where the crazy Norwegian ran off to after the bridge accident.
Tellingly, Joseph (Eddie Spears) returns to camp to offer Ruth (Kasha Kropinski) some supplies, and to warn her that death is coming. Joseph's seen his fair share of it lately, but as he claims to have seen the White Spirit, his words feel particularly portentous. Furthermore, Joseph's presence give credibility to Mickey's (Phil Burke) claim that Sean's intentions for Ruth are misguided, and help carry over to the rather worrisome confrontation the two share near the episode's end.
All of 'The Lord's Day' points to a potentially dark and unsettling two-hour finale next week, wherein, hopefully, many of the last two season's worth of plotlines manage to come together.


Great! A piece of evidence that we are not the mindless automata the materialists want to persuade us we are, right down to the bacteria level. Of course, this stuff won't be in the textbooks, I suspect.
The ENCODE project have shown that at least 80% of the human genome is functionally active. Some try explaining it away by claiming that most of the activity is insignificant, but that away-explanation ignores several factors. One is that reading DNA is a job done by energy-expensive reading molecules, making any major amount of meaningless DNA activity extremely unlikely. Another factor is the missing heredity: protein-coding genes can only explain a minor fraction of the heredity shown by twin studies. Some explain away discoveries of functions in non-coding DNA by claiming that they are a minority case and that the vast majority is still junk, theoretically "supporting" it by reference to limitations of how many mutations natural selection can purge per generation. But they are overlooking the fact that hereditary diseases that cannot be explained by protein-coding DNA outnumbers those that can 20 to 1. That is patently not a "minor border revision". Rather, it is a massive expansion of the amount of functionally important genome that makes directed mutations necessary to avoid that literally everybody dies from genetic diseases. A possible mechanism for the directing is that working groups of proteins "feel" when one particular protein in the group does not do its job properly, and sends a signal that triggers unscrambling of the responsible parts of the genome. Experiments that supposedly prove that mutations are random, are in fact victims of false generalizations. Those experiments are really about introducing diseases or poisons that kills too fast for the organisms to have time to direct mutations. John Cairns experiments supporting directed mutations in the 1980s, on the other hand, were about malnutrition (only giving the bacteria food they lacked the genes to digest, in this case giving E.coli only lactose to eat), which gives more time to direct mutations. Not only must there be time to signal the error and change the gene(s), there must also be time to get the production of the modified protein up and going and distribute it to the relevant working groups of proteins. Several molecules are known to interact directly with specific locations in the genome, molecules chemically resembling ones known to affect the risk of cancer when intaken more diffusely. That mechanism should be able to locally alter mutation probabilities. Mechanical changes of the structure of the DNA spiral, a known part of epigenetics, also almost certainly affects the vulnerability of the DNA by making it more or less exposed. And as shown in "Bacteria evolved way to safeguard crucial genetic material", there is evidence that mutation rates do differ between parts of the genome, falsifying the dogma of mutation rates only being able to change over the whole genome and not locally. See Pure science Wiki.
Lipton's definitely right to question the stupidity of genetic determinism and random mechanical evolution, but his continuing support for the profoundly irrelevant lipid bilayer model of cell physiology just seems well a bit odd.

Uber Ends Mandatory Arbitration Clauses for Sexual-Harassment Claims
The move, a rarity in corporate America, comes amid pressure from employees and customers
Uber and other firms have faced increasing pressure to rework their arbitration policies. The California state legislature is considering a bill that would prohibit companies from making signing mandatory-arbitration provisions a condition for employment.

May 15, 2018 6:00 am ET
Uber Technologies Inc. is taking a step toward moving past its scandal-ridden history by ending the company's use of the widespread but controversial practice of mandatory arbitration for claims of sexual harassment and assault.
The move, coming after pressure from both former employees and customers, will immediately free U.S.-based litigants to sue Uber in open court, rather than in private with an impartial arbitrator.
Uber's decision is a rarity in corporate America, where mandatory-arbitration clauses are preferred because they tend to lead to quicker settlements at a lower cost than class-action suits and may spare companies from bad publicity. Technology companies, including Uber, often make mandatory-arbitration provisions a condition for employment, and also bury these provisions in lengthy user agreements required for apps, services or software programs.
The ride-hailing company has been trying to overcome last year's allegations from former employees that management disregarded repeated claims of sexism and sexual harassment. The company also faces a recent lawsuit from a group of Uber riders who allege they were sexually assaulted by drivers and who asked Uber's board last month to be freed from the provision in order to pursue their case in open court.
Uber also said Tuesday it would no longer require employees, riders or drivers who allege sexual assault or harassment to agree to confidentiality about the specifics of their claims as a condition of a future settlement. It will, however, keep a muzzle on the financial details of the agreement.
"We think it's important to give survivors their choice of venue to seek redress," Uber General Counsel Tony West said in an interview, noting that may include voluntary arbitration, as well as private settlements or open court.
Later Tuesday, rival ride-hailing firm Lyft Inc. also said it would end the practice of forced arbitration for its employees, riders and drivers. "Uber made the good decision to adjust their policies," said a spokesman in a statement. "We agree with the changes."
Legal experts say mandatory-arbitration clauses may lead some victims to walk away from harassment or discrimination claims, in part because they can't find plaintiffs' lawyers to take their cases because many work for contingency fees.
Arbitration involves trial-like hearings, typically conducted by former judges or lawyers. Employers often assume the costs if it is mandated, but both parties have a say in deciding who hears the case. Arbitrators usually don't follow federal rules of civil procedure and, compared with courts, impose tighter limits on pretrial discovery. Such cases are generally confidential and harder to appeal.
In a blog post, Mr. West said the company is making the changes in the spirit of transparency. "Sexual assault is a vastly underreported crime," he wrote, citing research from the nonprofit Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network. He said Uber would begin disclosing data about reported sexual assaults and other incidents affecting its customers. The details of the report are being worked out, he said.
For now, Uber said, its changes apply only to the U.S. and only for claims regarding sexual misbehavior. Matters of pay inequity or race are still bound by Uber's mandatory-arbitration clause, as are class-action matters, even in cases of sexual misconduct.
Mr. West said most sexual harassment and assault claims against Uber are brought by individuals. "[The change] will not please everyone, because it will not give everything to everyone," he said.
A viral blog post by former Uber employee Susan Fowler led to the company's opening of an internal investigation led by former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.
That bill is being backed by software engineer Susan Fowler, whose viral blog post in February 2017 detailing her experiences with harassment at Uber compelled the company to hire former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to review its practices.
Ms. Fowler and Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi exchanged tweets in March after she challenged him to end the practice of mandatory arbitration. "I will take it seriously but we have to take all of our constituents into consideration," wrote Mr. Khosrowshahi, adding that he hoped to meet with her to discuss the idea. Mr. West said Ms. Fowler and Mr. Khosrowshahi haven't met.
Microsoft Corp. ended the practice of forced arbitration for sexually related claims in December, affecting hundreds of mostly senior executives. The company also said it would throw its support behind a federal bill co-sponsored by Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York that would do away with mandatory arbitration. Mr. West, in the interview, said Uber is reviewing the bill and had no position on it.

Q: Wordpress Paid Membership: Podcast 'Preview'? I'm currently working on a personal project that involves paid membership. So far I have been using Wordpress and s2member. Part of this blog is a weekly podcast, which will require a paid membership to listen to in its entirety.
I want to limit the amount of time that a non-member can listen to a podcast, and I would like to accomplish this without having to create 2 versions of the podcast. Is there a WP Plugin, or some kind of JS code that I can implement with the podcast player to limit playback to people that are not members?
Thanks in advance!

A: Even if you find something like that, users would be able to get the full version from code. JS would stop the player and they wouldn't be able to play it further, but they can use other ways to get the full track and download it directly.
It's always better to have 2 versions so non-members have access only to is the cut off one.

Boss-lady
I think often of Colly (nee Corolyn) Woods Soleri. She was, when I first met her, barely 40, a young mother of two daughters, then 12 and 4 years old. She had a busy life, to say the least. Not only did she manage the family household and the business affairs of her already-famous husband, she managed to keep in touch with virtually everyone who crossed their threshold.
She had a wry sense of humor that she was not afraid to turn on herself, which she frequently did. Talented in her own right - she had studied the violin and was, I think, not an indifferent instrumentalist until she simply stopped playing - she was a gifted photographer. She put her simple box camera to use constantly, with remarkable adeptness. (And her triumph over the Gestetner machine on which she managed to reproduce the pages and pages of Paolo writings that she'd carefully hand-typed on her Selectric was nothing short of phenomenal.)
Colly's love of music is manifest at Arcosanti. The amphitheater of the Colly Soleri Music Center is an extraordinary performance space: I only wish she had lived to enjoy the sublime music it affords its audiences.
I saw her last in 1981, when we stopped briefly at Arcosanti and Cosanti on the way to New Mexico where I had left our belongings when I came off my teaching job on the Navajo rez. I remember all too clearly standing with her in the kitchen of their ranch house on Doubletree Road. I could not help but parse her face, her expression, her stance. What came out of my mouth, like a medically intuitive no-nonsense savant (which I am not) was, "Boss Lady, you have to go see a doctor."
I remember how she moved her hand vaguely in the air, waving me, waving my words, off. Oh Clara, she said, and I knew from the way she said it, the way she stood, that she was not going to do what I was asking her to do.
I had no choice but to put the encounter 'on hold,' as it were. We went on to New Mexico, gathered up our things, went back to BC, settled into life on Slocan Lake. Later that year, after younger son Jacob was born, I had a truly awful dream, unforgettable, vividly prescient in quality. It was so unsettling, I phoned Mark Neptune in New Mexico to ask him was all well with our friends Ike and Jean in Tucson since the dream's landscape somehow resembled the Southwest. Mark assured me Ike and Jean were fine. Uneasily, as best I could, I put the ominous dream out of my mind.
Until Ivan Pintar phoned, told me Colly was gone. Told me she had gone to a doctor, but in August - too late to slow down the painful end. Told me the family had gathered in around her, kept her close until she breathed no more. Told me, too, that she had been buried. On the hill above the river that runs through Arcosanti's garden camp, I learned later, when I returned to Arcosanti to see what I might be able to do to help cauterize that awful, gaping wound.
Paolo filled big jugs with water which we carried, scarcely speaking, for the rosemary - "for remembrance" - that had been planted where she was buried, planted over her grave. Rosemary. For remembering.
There are people who are indelible. Colly, our boss lady, was one whose mark will never vanish, must never be erased.

The simple explanation of why I went to Canada is that I wanted to see how Cuyler was doing. He'd left Cosanti because he wanted to learn how to build a harpsichord and at that time, the only place in North America to do that was Vancouver, BC. Plus UBC had a great music school...
The sub-text to that excursion, though, was the relief I felt, crossing over the 49th parallel a few scant months after I, along with umpteen million others, witnessed Ruby plug Oswald with a live bullet at close range in a Dallas police station.
Smack dab in front of a live TV camera.
Canada didn't look super different from the USA on the outside. English-speaking, city configuration subtly similar to others south of the 49th. But I thought it somehow had a different feel to it, which was very, very significant. Essential, really.
Less evidence of violent aggressivity, absence of continuously ongoing war-mongering, no frontier mentality or at least not one overtly palpable. All that was significant. Different.
But in the summer of '63, there had been a letter that Paolo and we, at Paolo's instigation, had sent to JFK. That was a few years ahead of the mainline antiwar protest, all the brouhaha that eventually ensued; but in our letter, we told the President invading Vietnam was not desired by us. I feel certain sure we apprentices and Silt Pilers, pacifists by inclination rather than religious conviction (although I did know a little bit about Quakers, having had friends in high school who were Friends), had zero interest in empire-building; nor were we the least bit keen on the bloodshedding that inevitably is an attendant requisite of empire-building.
I don't recall being particularly analytical about my feelings at the time but in retrospect, I'm sure the letter Paolo instigated was consciousness-raising for me as a signator, prepared the ground for my eventual migration. Ripened me for it. I wasn't draftable due to my genital equipment but I was totally clear I didn't want anyone sent to war - much less die in one - for me. How could that ever be right? Paolo himself had refused to serve in Mussolini's army: he'd slipped across the border into France from Turin. A man of conscience, that Soleri fellow.
Vancouver, I found, was a charmingly quirky city. Fog horns bellowing in the morning. A soft, misty, painterly light that made all the colors of everything natural, poignantly sharp and clear. 'Pubs' with separate entrances for men and women, drinking 'red-eye' - a glass of beer mixed with tomato juice, which its imbibers claimed was terrific. Government-controlled liquor stores, closed on Sundays. Almost everything having to do with commerce closed on Sunday. "Blue laws" - ahhh, so.
A Canadian friend told me there was no difference between Canada and the USA but I was sure that couldn't be true. The Maple Leaf is not the Stars and Stripes: how could there be no difference between the two countries? After I scoped out the UBC campus with its fine old library building, its garden-like landscaping, what wasn't to like?
Somehow my mind managed to set itself to a place and its people. Near 50 years later, I'm a dual national, grateful to my adopted northern home for letting me land. If you have a place to stand, you can operate a lever and, as Archimedes noted, a lever can be quite useful. Not much arcology-building in Canada, and not a huge number of people in Canada have come to work at Arcosanti. But socially, economically and politically transformative change rarely happens overnight, eh?

Some 25 years after my first encounter with Paolo's sand-cast architectural models, sand-cast buildings and sand-cast bells, I was introduced to sandplay therapy. I began examining Arcosanti from an organizational, educational administration perspective for my first grad degree, analyzing sandplay therapy from a Social Work perspective for my second, It's of natural interest to me, the connection between sand casting and sandplay; therefore no surprise I've been contemplating them while wondering about the links between them.
Assembling a jigsaw puzzle without knowing what the completed picture should look like is a challenge, but what I've come to is this: Beyond the commonality of sand (and water), what sandplay and sand-casting also have in common is that they are also both primary forms of "serious" play. Three-dimensional. Sculptural (qua architectural). Graphic. Kinaesthetic. Dramatic.
Seeing that parallel leads me to consider comparing them as manifest forms on an "expressive arts" continuum. Although I daresay Paolo never considered the possibility that what he was doing was or might be taken for a type of therapy, I suspect that might have been an error of omission. Because if I utilize a Behavioral Health perspective to examine the experiences of the thousands of people who've participated in the 'urban laboratory' experience, all those folk who've contributed their 'sweat equity' to the experiment Paolo initially set out to conduct, it seems to me we should not discount the extent to which Arcosanti - even if has been and primarily still is a "company town," has been/can be construed as a therapeutic environment. Maybe not intentionally, but nonetheless...
I have yet to canvass all those thousands who've helped build Arcosanti (although I'd love to be able to do that) but what I've observed over the years is that people often come to Arcosanti with a pressing problem in tow. They're in transition, seeking a solution to an issue as personal as it is/may be political and/or professional. They're seeking solace or refuge, in a way. They need to sustain themselves as seekers, they seek to maintain themselves as doers. They hope to feel useful, they want their talents to be needed - and wanted.
Why not? Why would an educational experiment not be responsive to such people, to such problems? Moreover: To what end, of what use is such an altruistic physical plant if it sets aside responsibility, even quasi-responsibility, for the emotional, psychological and/or the intellectually material as well as the physical nourishment of its proper constituents?
Those constituents, its people, its builders, are its "tribe," as Jeff Stein, Cosanti Board of Trustees President, suggested. And Arcosanti has withstood - endured, even, for decades - their criical debate pitting "construction site" against "community." No final agreement could be reached as to what the place was since the argument was fairly specious. When has a construction site built itself? A construction site *is* - it simply exists. It takes a community of some kind to gather together the energy and resources needed to construct something - even something simple, never mind an entire laboratory that's meant to house a few thousand urbanists.
The debate continued, sometimes quietly, sometimes fiercely. Consensus was - still seems to be - elusive. Me, I'd like to take this puzzle to my colleagues when the International Society for Sandplay Therapy. ISST, of which I am an associate, meets. Which it does, every second year at a different location. This year's meeting will take place in Venice, in - yikes! - a few weeks. Unfortunately, it's a long paddle or row - or a very long swim - across an ocean.. It's looking unlikely, right now, such a voyage. So I'll muddle the puzzle along with me for a while longer, see where it leads...


Kevin Durant Will Stay With Nike After All - FanGenius!
So much for Under Armour luring NBA All-Everything Oklahoma City Thunder foward Kevin Durant away with a mega endorsement deal. At the last minute Nike decided Durant was too big to lose and stepped up with a offer that topped the reported $285 million deal from Under Armour.
Nike, whose seven-year deal that guaranteed Durant $60 million is expiring, made an initial offer of about $20 million a year that was far from what Durant was looking for. Under Armour's huge play for Durant had many believing that Nike would even let him go at that price.
Nike officials told Durant and his team at Jay Z's Roc Nation Sports that it would indeed step up enough to allow the world's largest shoe and apparel company to keep him in its robust stable of basketball endorsers that includes LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.
"KD" shoes generated $175 million at retail this past year. Thats a lot of shoes.

A few years back I was sitting down with a potential client and I had three similar books. The only major difference was that each book had its own wedding. So I had presented three weddings in exactly the same style book. This was something I did on purpose. While the books were the same in format, and number of images, layout (just pictures, no frilly nonsense to distract) etc. The only difference was that they contained different weddings. And I recall the client said "I prefer that one, the one in the middle and that's what I want my wedding to be".
This to me was interesting. I felt that the person looking at the work perhaps thought that I had photographed that wedding in a different way to the others. I then explained that perhaps this set of wedding pictures resonated more. And perhaps there were traits that were identifiable, familiar even. This allowed me to pour over in greater detail the actual way that each day is recorded and documented in a set of photographs.
I know that some photographers sell their photography like they are selling burger deal meals (Have it the way you want it, your way! Extra Cheese! No problem!) .
Allowing a documentary wedding photographer like myself to photograph your day as it flows can reveal its idiosyncrasies. Fleeting moments and vitality coming through is what should be important. When the dust settles then let's see what happened. There is much joy in then sitting back and enjoying the pictures when they land. In my opinion the day should reveal what the guests, friends, family are all about. And as a result you will relive the day once again. No cookie cutter approach, no carbon copy of another.
And a candid style of photography with somebody who knows what they are doing has the ability to sum up what the day was really about. Ebbing and flowing, watching the story build, therefore giving you a dynamic set of wedding pictures. Having your wedding day documented in a candid manner in my view will reveal the true nature of the day. No bells and whistles, no messing about. Just pictures that are reflective of you wedding day. It's simple stuff.

New militant Antifa wing gets seriously organized, calls for revolution and releases list of goals
August 24, 2017 | Carmine Sabia | Print Article
An armed Antifa group is fundraising to support the building o a new cell in Philadelphia.
And the alt-left media is helping it by publishing its press release calling for "abolitionism and revolutionary anarchism" to "decisively eradicate the abhorrence of 21st century slavery."
What is 21st century slavery?
According to the group's website, it is the prison system. The group, known as the Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement (RAM) intends to use some of its funds raised to create an "underground railroad" to help people "escape the state."

In other words they intend to use an underground railroad to help criminals escape because the group believes that "the Civil War was never resolved and the system of slavery transitioned into the prison industrial complex."
RAM sees the police as the enemy and praises Black Panther Mumia Abu Jamal who, in 1981, murdered police officer Daniel Faulkner.
It also cites fellow cop killer Russell Maroon Shoatz, as a part of "Philadelphia's rich revolutionary tradition."
RAM hosts workshops specifically against police titled "Our Enemies in Blue."
The group's website also seeks to abolish of gender and calls for its members to steal tools and lands so that it can build its own state, independent of the United States. RAM also plans to build local "defense teams" and councils as well as national councils.
The group models its movement on the far left Rojava Revolution in Syria, and praises communism as providing a "foundation in communal and council based political organization and militant defense."
A website video rife with anarchy and violence heavily hints at an armed revolution to destroy the government.
Trump's economic advisor Gary Cohn is currently under fire for praising Antifa as "citizens standing up for equality and freedom."
Does RAM sound like that to you?

THE ELECTION OF 1832 AND THE BANK WAR
*The Bank of the United States had existed since John Adams' presidency. It had been chartered for twenty years in 1796 and had its charter renewed in 1816, so that the Bank in existence during Jackson's presidency is sometimes distinguished as the Second Bank of the United States.
*Although the bank held government funds, lent money to numerous institutions, issued paper money, and regulated and stabilised the economy, it was unpopular in some circles, including Andrew Jackson's. Although it functioned very much like a part of the Federal government, it was a private institution, unanswerable to the people, and controlled by the brilliant but aristocratical Nicholas Biddle of Philadelphia, who put the interests of the bank's wealthy investors and stockholders first, or so it was said. A substantial minority of these stockholders in turn were foreigners, especially British (whom Jackson particularly despised).
*Although the Bank of the United States had been upheld as constitutional in McCulloch v Maryland, Jackson accused it and its president of being monopolistic and corrupt, and contended that whatever the Supreme Court might have said, the Bank was, or at least ought to be, unconstitutional.
*Westerners in general often opposed the Bank, because its financial power was used to counterbalance so-called 'wildcat' banks in the west, that opened for a short time, issued paper money, which was used to buy up western land, and then closed when their issues of scrip proved to be unmatched by their supplies of specie. Although bad for the economy in many ways, especially for anyone who wanted save money in a bank, these wildcat banks did make speculation much easier.
*With the election of 1832 on the horizon, Henry Clay came up with what he thought was a brilliant scheme to discredit Jackson in the upcoming election. He would do so by using the Bank of the United States, soon due to be re-chartered in 1836. Clay, however, would use his influence in Congress to move the renewal of the charter back to 1832. Once the bill was passed, it would go to Jackson's desk, where as President he would either have to sign it into law or veto it.
*If Jackson let the recharter pass into law, he would alienate many of his western allies, who felt as he did about the Bank. If he vetoed the charter bill, he would annoy the eastern commercial interests, and lose valuable support there. Either way, Clay thought, Jackson was destined to hurt himself.
*Jackson vetoed the bill, condemning what he called 'the monster Bank' as anti-Western and even anti-American, reminding the voters of the foreign investors in the Bank. Thus, Jackson used anti-centralisation and anti-foreign sentiments against the Bank and against Clay.
*The Bank unquestionably had bad points.
1. It was anti-Western, being hostile to western banks.
2. It foreclosed on the loans of many western farms.
3. It was indeed run by a plutocratic president, Nicholas Biddle, who was aristocratic in his tastes.
4. Biddle was known to lend money to friends and influential politicians (Daniel Webster was on his payroll as a director of the bank, its chief legal counsel, and its defender in the Senate).
5. 59 members of Congress are known to have borrowed money from the Bank in 1831; Webster was thousands of dollars in debt to the bank.
*Despite its flaws, the Bank also had a number of good points.
1. Its stability and regulation of the economy restricted 'fly-by-night' banks, which were often little more than some office furniture and some printed bank notes.
2. It reduced bank failures.
3. It issued sound bank notes (called 'Old Nick's Money').
4. It promoted economic expansion.
5. It was a safe place for federal deposits.
*In the election of 1832, Jackson, the Democratic-Republican faced not only the National Republican Clay, but also the Anti-Masonic party. Originally founded in 1826 when a former Freemason who revealed the society's secrets vanished in upstate New York, it attacked privilege and secret societies, but also attacked Jackson, who was a Mason. Not only were the Masons seen as undemocratic, they were possibly Unchristian, and the Anti-Masonic party had as part of its platform policies to effect religious and moral reform, such as banning the mail and stage lines from running on Sundays. This offended Democrats, who wanted the national government to stay out of people's lives for good or bad.
*All three parties adopted formal platforms and selected their candidates through nominating conventions with delegates from the states. This was meant to make the selection process seem more democratic and responsive to the common people.
*Despite a donation of $50,000 from the Bank of the United States and widespread support in the newspapers, Clay was soundly defeated in 1832. Clay won only 49 electoral votes compared to Jackson's 219.
*Jackson now meant to go whole hog in destroying the Bank. Although its charter kept it in existence until 1836, Jackson would not wait that long. He began to withhold deposits, instead placing federal specie in state banks, which came to be known as 'pet banks.'
*To intimidate Jackson and instill fear in the people, Biddle began calling in loans from weaker banks with unnecessary severity, which caused many of those banks to call in loans to individuals, or collapse, or in many cases do both.
*With the Bank of the United States low on hard money, there was a greater need for paper, and wildcat banks began printing it in greater and greater quantities, unchecked by the Bank. To ensure that the government got fair payment for western lands, Jackson issued the Specie Circular in 1836, requiring that all federal lands be paid for in specie. This brought the wild speculation and booming economy to a halt, and led to financial panic and an economic crash in 1837 just after the Bank's old charter and the Bank itself expired.
*In addition to the Bank War, Jackson had another problem with which to contend, the Indians.
*The various Indian tribes had been treated, at least since the treaty of Greenville, as separate and semi-sovereign 'dependent nations' within the borders of the United States. Jackson knew this could not last, however.
*When gold was found in Cherokee territory in Georgia, Georgians wished to seize the land. The Cherokee, by now a civilised and acculturated people, sued in the Supreme Court, and won the case of Worcester v Georgia. However, the ruling of this case was not enforced by Jackson, who said 'John Marshall has made his decision, let him enforce it.'
*The Cherokee had indeed become civilised. They had adopted white dress, architecture, planting, farming and slaveowning. The Cherokee Sequoya developed a syllabary for the Cherokee, who eventually produced their own written constitution and a tribal newspaper, the Phoenix.
*Jackson advocated the removal of all Indian tribes west of the Mississippi, for their own good as well as that of the white people.
*In 1830, Jackson and Congress passed the Indian Removal Act, which allowed the President to give Indians land in Louisiana in exchange for their land in the east.
*In 1832, the Sauk and Fox, led by Black Hawk go on the warpath in what is called the Black Hawk War in Wisconsin and Illinois. They and their followers were defeated at the Battle of Bad Axe.
*Beginning in 1835, the Seminole in Florida fought a guerilla war in the swamps of Florida. Their leader, Osceola, was eventually captured and the war officially ended in 1842, but some Seminole fled deep into the Everglades and were never defeated. Their descendents live there to-day.
*The Cherokee were finally rounded up in 1838 and forced to march to what is now Oklahoma, mostly in the winter and mostly with poor supplies. Along the way about one fourth of the 15,000 Cherokee died. Martin van Buren described Removal as 'a happy and certain consummation' of a 'wise, humane, and undeviating policy.' To this day the Cherokee call it the Trail of Tears.

Country singer Randy Travis, 54, has been hospitalized in Texas "suffering from complications of recently acquired viral cardiomyopathy," He is listed in critical condition.
Travis spokesman Kirt Webstersaid that Travis appeared well last Friday and Saturday while attending business meetings but became ill on Sunday and was taken to the hospital.
Travis is one of country music's top-selling artists, having won 7 Grammys, 10 Academy of Country Music awards and 10 American Music Award statuettes.
In 2012, Travis was arrested for assault and intoxication. He received probation for the offense.
Cardiomyopathy is a weakening of the heart muscle or another problem with the heart muscle. It often occurs when the heart cannot pump as well as it should, or with other heart function problems.
Most patients with cardiomyopathy have heart failure.
One cause of cardiomyopathy is myocarditis, an uncommon disorder that can be caused by viral, bacterial, or fungal infections that reach the heart.
When you have an infection, your immune system produces special cells that release chemicals to fight off disease. If the infection affects your heart, the disease-fighting cells enter the heart. However, the chemicals produced by an immune response can damage the heart muscle. As a result, the heart can become thick, swollen, and weak. This leads to symptoms of heart failure.
If the heart muscle is very weak, your health care provider will prescribe medicines to treat heart failure. Abnormal heart rhythms may require the use of additional medications, a pacemaker, or an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.
Possible complications of myocarditis include cardiomyopathy (see above), heart failure and pericariditis ( an inflammation or infection of the sac around the heart).
This morning we are being told that Travis underwent heart surgery last night.
Randy Travis "underwent placement of an Impella peripheral left ventricular assist device for stabilization prior to transferring hospitals. Travis remains in critical condition." This according to his rep to People magazine this afternoon.
The Impella device is a tiny pump that is inserted with a catheter through the groin rather than being surgically implanted. It can be used temporarily to help patients tolerate procedures such as angioplasty by relieving the heart's pumping function and providing the time needed to perform life-saving procedures.

The AOA and affiliates spoke up to make healthy vision a top national health care priority, especially for children. The federal government listened.
The result is its implementation plan for the Affordable Care Act's pediatric vision essential health benefit.
Pediatric eye health care is confirmed as an "essential health benefit" and must be offered by all new health plans as a distinct benefit from well child care.
Millions of children will gain health insurance coverage through age 18. Coverage includes direct access to their local optometrist for a comprehensive eye exam and treatment, including medical eye care.
Pediatric eye health care is confirmed as an "essential health benefit" and must be offered by all new health plans as a distinct benefit from well child care.
Pediatric eye health care is defined as an annual comprehensive eye exam and treatment, including medical eye care.
All new health plans-both inside and outside of state exchanges-are required to provide fully integrated coverage for pediatric eye health care and must recognize optometrists as providers of medical eye care.
Vision plans are permitted to partner with health plans to offer fully integrated eye health care coverage inside and outside of state exchanges.
In taking this action, the Obama administration accepted the AOA's long-standing position on healthy vision for America's children. It also rejected lobbying by ophthalmologists, pediatricians and their organized medicine allies who wanted pediatric vision care to be based on a screening or limited to an element of well child care. The administration also said "NO" to a plan that would have segregated a full pediatric eye health benefit, downgraded it from mandatory to optional status and imposed new barriers to OD-provided medical eye care.
State officials will continue to make important implementation decisions. Continued advocacy by optometry will help lock in the increased patient access envisioned under federal law.


Learn how to control AC outlets via SMS text message. This is chapter thirty-three of a series originally titled "Getting Started/Moving Forward with Arduino!" by John Boxall – A tutorial on the Arduino universe. The first chapter is here, the complete series is detailed here.
Assumed understanding for this article is found in part one. If you have not already done so, please read and understand it.
In this chapter we will continue with the use of the SM5100 cellular shield to turn digital outputs on and off via SMS. However please read chapters twenty-six and twenty-seven first if you are unfamiliar with using the GSM shield with Arduino. As an extension of chapter twenty-seven, we will use our Arduino to turn on or off AC outlets via a common remote-control AC outlet pack. Please note this is more of a commentary of my own experience, and not an exact tutorial. In other words, by reading this I hope you will gain some ideas into doing the necessary modifications yourself and in your own way.
Nothing too original, just a wireless remote control that can switch on or off receiver outlets on a choice of four radio frequencies. Before moving forward I would like to acknowledge that this article was inspired by the wonderful book Practical Arduino – Cool Projects for Open Source Hardware by Jon Oxer and Hugh Blemings. In chapter two an appliance remote-control system is devised using a similar system.
At first glance the theory behind this project is quite simple – using the hardware in example 27.2, instead of controlling LEDs, activate the buttons on the wireless remote control for the AC outlets – leaving us with AC outlets controlled via SMS. However there are a few things to keep in mind and as discovered during the process, various pitfalls as well.
Before voiding the warranty on your remote control, it would be wise to test the range of the remote control to ensure it will actually work in your situation. I found this was made a lot easier by connecting a radio to the remote outlet – then you can hear when the outlet is on or off. If this is successful, make a note of the amount of time required to press the on and off buttons – as we need to control the delay in our Arduino sketch.
Straight away there are two very annoying things – the first being the required power supply – 12 volts; and the second being the type of button contacts on the PCB. As you can see above we only have some minute PCB tracks to solder our wires to. It would be infinitely preferable to have a remote control that uses actual buttons soldered into a PCB, as you can easily desolder and replace them with wires to our Arduino system. However unless you can casually tear open the remote control packaging in the store before purchase, it can be difficult to determine the type of buttons in the remote.
As you can see in the photo above, there is an off and on pad/button each for four channels of receiver. In my example we will only use two of them to save time and space. The next question to solve is how to interface the Arduino digital outputs with the remote control. In Practical Arduino, the authors have used relays, but I don't have any of those in stock. However I do have a quantity of common 4N25 optocouplers, so will use those instead. An optocoupler can be thought of as an electronic switch that is isolated from what is it controlling – see my article on optocouplers for more information.
As the LED inside the optocoupler has a forward voltage of 1.2 volts at 10mA, the 390 ohm resistor is required as our Arduino digital out is 5 volts. Dout is connected to the particular digital out pin from the Arduino board. Pins 4 and 5 on the optocoupler are connected to each side of the button contact on our remote control.
The next consideration is the power supply. The remote control theoretically needs 12 volts, however the included battery only measured just over nine. However for the optimum range, the full 12 should be supplied. To save worrying about the battery, our example will provide 12V to the remote control. Furthermore, we also need to supply 5 volts at a higher current rating that can be supplied by our Arduino. In the previous GSM chapters, I have emphasised that the GSM shield can possibly draw up to two amps in current. So once again, please ensure your power supply can deliver the required amount of current. From experience in my location, I know that the GSM shield draws around 400~600 milliamps of current – which makes things smaller and less complex.
Again, as this is a prototype the aesthetics of the modification are not that relevant. Be careful when handling the remote, as any force on the wiring can force the soldered wire up and break the PCB track. After soldering each pair of wires to the button pads, use the continuity function of a multimeter to check for shorts and adjust your work if necessary.
//Initialize GSM module serial port for communication.
delay(30000); // give time for GSM module to register on network etc.
Where a/b are remote channels one and two, and x is replaced with 0 for off and 1 for on.
So there you have it – controlling almost any AC powered device via text message from a cellular phone. Imagine trying to do that ten, or even five years ago. As always, now it is up to you and your imagination to find something to control or get up to other shenanigans.

Colouring for Adults — Why Is it so Popular?
If you look around at hobby shops, bookstores, and gift shops, you've probably noticed the new trend of adult colouring. Well, we have certainly noticed the popular hobby popping up and have begun offering adult colouring as an activity at Emerald Retirement Residence.
It may seem like a childish way to pass the time, but adult colouring has proven benefits for young and old alike. Our residents are really enjoying the time spent in our activities room with a colouring book and a box of pencil crayons!
Colouring is obviously not a very strenuous activity — there is a certain calming effect when you put pencil crayon to paper. Colouring creates a meditative-like state, resting the mind while becoming engaged with the picture, reducing one's overall stress levels.
Because colouring is such an easy task, people are coming together to create their masterpieces and chat. It doesn't require a lot of concentration, so colouring can be done while conversing with friends and comparing pieces. And while everyone is working on their own picture, it can feel like you are working together to achieve something as a group.
While it isn't an overwhelmingly demanding activity, colouring still requires focus, attention and engagement. Becuase you are so focused on colouring your picture, you are actually able to forget any outside, distracting factors and clear your head while focusing on the task at hand.
While you focus on the pencil and paper, you enhance fine motor skills and focus your eyes on the picture in front of you. This means engaging both hemispheres of the brain, strengthening a number of abilities of the mind. In fact, it has been suggested that colouring may delay or even prevent dementia in seniors.
We have a number of opportunities for our residents to gather in the activities room and colour. Click below to explore our activities calendar.

Avocados are stuffed with a creamy shrimp filling and sprinkled with cheese before being baked for a warm, melted cheese finish. These baked shrimp stuffed avocados are ready in less than 30 minutes.
I'm sharing another delicious and easy recipe today in partnership with the California Avocado Commission. I am so happy avocados are in season now. We've been eating about one a day in our house.
I do feel very fortunate to live in California, where avocados are abundant. We had some friends visiting us from Pittsburgh this week and they were telling us how hard it is to get avocados where they live. They ate their fill of avocados while they were here and I even sent them home with a bag.
This recipe couldn't be easier. But it tastes much more complex than it actually is. With a few seasonings and herbs, the shrimp filling tastes like a flavor-packed seafood stuffing. The avocado goes very well with the stuffing and contributes to its creaminess.
After whipping up the filling and stuffing the avocados, I sprinkled them with cheese and baked them for a few minutes so that everything would be warm and the cheese was melted.
But for fun, I left a few unbaked and without cheese and you know what? They tasted really great that way as well. Like a shrimp stuffed avocado salad. So really, you can serve these baked or chilled.
These would make a perfect appetizer or side dish next time you're entertaining.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, add shrimp, mayonnaise, avocado, garlic powder and lemon juice. Mix together until thoroughly combined. Add black pepper to season to taste.
Scoop shrimp stuffing into your avocado halves. Add shredded cheese on top.
Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and the shrimp filling is warm. Garinish with paprika and parsley before serving.
Do you cook the avocado in the rind or take that off to cook?
You leave it on, just like in the photos. It makes it messier if you try to remove the skin.
My husband and I LOVE this dish. So easy and fast to prepare, but so delicious!
I'm so happy you and your husband love this dish!
Can these be frozen and reheated in the microwave?
I don't recommend it because freezing will change the avocado texture.

There are a number of requirements for a formal will to be valid in Western Australia. These include that the will must be in writing (it can be typed, printed or handwritten), that it is signed by the testator and that it is witnessed by two adults. Traditionally, witnesses to a will could not be interested parties; however, a number of Australian jurisdictions have now abolished this rule. This article deals with whether a beneficiary can witness a will in WA.
Can a Beneficiary Witness A Will In WA?
In WA, unlike in some other jurisdictions such as New South Wales and Queensland, a will can be witnessed by any adult, including someone who is a beneficiary. This means that it is common for family members of the testator like children, siblings or the testator's partner to witness wills.
A person can witness the execution of a will in WA provided they:
Are over 18;
Have legal capacity;
Can see, as the testator's signature must be witnessed visually (section 11, Wills Act, 1970).
The witnesses to the execution of a will should be capable of being identified and located if they are needed to attest to the fact that the testator signed the will.
Can a Beneficiary Witness a Will In Other Jurisdictions?
The law about whether a beneficiary can witness a will is different in different states and territories of Australia.
In the ACT, SA and Victoria, there is no rule preventing a beneficiary from benefitting from an estate where they witnessed the execution of the will so in these jurisdictions family members such as spouses and children often act as witnesses.
In Queensland and New South Wales, where a beneficiary witnessed the will, the will is void to the extent that the witness benefits from its provisions. This means that where a beneficiary witnessed a will, the result may be partial intestacy. Partial intestacy will occur if the deceased did not include a residue clause in the will, providing for how the remainder of the estate is to be distributed after specific assets have been dealt with.
In the absence of a residue clause, the assets bequeathed to the witness will be distributed according to the laws of intestacy.
If the testator included a residue clause, the assets bequeathed to the witness will be distributed along with the remainder of the estate as they have set out in the will.
Many people do not realise that challenging a will is very different to contesting a will. A person challenges a will when they dispute the validity of the document. This may be because there are doubts that the testator had testamentary capacity because there is evidence of fraud or undue influence or because the will was not executed in accordance with the formal requirements – for example, the testator's signature was not witnessed.
When a person challenges a will, the Supreme Court must look at the evidence surrounding the execution of the will and make a decision as to whether the will is valid and can be upheld.
If the will is upheld, the estate can proceed to be administered according to its terms. If the will is not upheld, the estate must be dealt with according to the laws of intestacy.
A person contests a will if they believe the provisions of the will are unfair. This usually occurs when a close family member of the deceased claims they have not been adequately provided for under the will and seek further provision out of the estate. A will may be contested even where there is no dispute as to the validity of the document.
Seek Advice When Making A Will
If you are thinking of making a will, it is advisable to seek legal advice to ensure the will is fair and valid and not likely to be challenged or contested. Although there is no rule preventing beneficiaries from witnessing wills in WA, there are other bases on which the validity of a will may be called into question.

By the providence of God after the celebration of 25th Anniversary of Christ Mission Ashram on 28th Feb to 4th March 2012, we had wonderful opportunity to have our one year sabbatical leave from 2nd July 2012 to the End of June 2013. We were in Seoul Korea for one and half month.
God has given us an opportunity to visit India to participate Holy City Kolkata Convention which was held on 23rd-25th January 2013 where the main speaker was Rev.Dr. Chung Phil Do (Founder pastor of Suyoung Ro Presbyterian Church, Korea).
God has blessed Kolkata Pastors & Leaders in three days seminar where Dr. Chung shared the secret of how the living God blessed him to build his church with the congregation of 40 thousands & the Lord turn the city Busan to be holy.
He gave a challenge in the mega city of Kolkata (17 million populations) to have more than ten churches which might have a congregation of more than 10 thousand.
The living Lord gave a vision to Kolkata Love Church to be one of them. Please pray with us to do so.

Jeremy Corbyn Faces Attacks by UK's Pro-Israel Lobby
August 14, 2018 1:59 AM IMEMC News & Agencies International, International Politics, Israeli Politics, News Report, Opinion/Analysis 0
Frontrunner for England's Prime Minister spot Jeremy Corbyn has been at the center of controversy over his criticism of the state of Israel, specifically for refusing to adopt certain provisions of a new definition of Anti-Semitism that extends to what he sees as genuine criticism over Israel's policies.
This debate is centered around an idea known as the 'New Anti-Semitism', purporting that criticism of Israel and even criticism of imperialism, in its broadest terms, can be used to demonize the Jewish people as a whole.
Many people such as Jeremy Corbyn see New Anti-Semitism as a means of chilling dissent over policy that disenfranchises Palestinians or dissent by accusing strategic allies to Israel of being accessories to the military occupation against the Palestinian people.
This criticism of New Anti-Semitism has been staunchly fought by leading members of Jewish communities around the world who say that Jews have the same right as everyone else to sovereignty and that the existence of Israel is not a racist act.
Governments that have accepted the New Anti-Semitism stance have found pressure to condemn genuine criticism of Israel as hate-speech. In England, the annual Israel Apartheid Week has been condemned, by lobbyists and affiliated MPs, as hate speech, under the IHRA's new definition of Anti-Semitism.
"Our government was one of the first to adopt the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism," said British MP Matthew Offord. "However, university vice-chancellors across the UK are simply ignoring its provisions. They are allowing Israel Apartheid Week events to take place in campuses that are funded by taxpayers and that is not only unacceptable, it breaches both the PSED and the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism."
Many see another factor of influence at play in the flack against Jeremy Corbyn. Much like the American Gun Lobby, Israeli corporations have a Pro-Israel Lobby that can pressure political candidates when they are outspoken critics of Israel's practices.
By creating political pressure against Jeremy Corbyn, members of the Pro-Israel Lobby and other groups can dissuade political action against Israeli injustices, such as the annexation of land in the occupied West Bank.
The Pro-Israel Lobby in the UK is in a unique position that allows them to avoid disclosing their donor base, making it difficult to understand who is holding the greatest stakes in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.
According to the PNN, the New Arab reported a call for greater transparency within the Israeli Lobbying organizations. But, until that comes, we can only wonder whether Jeremy Corbyn's supporters will be able to decide based on media coverage like Al Jazeera's investigation of the Israeli Lobby in the UK, instead of blanket accusations of Anti-Semitism by other media outlets.

We asked Sara Crow to let us in on the skin-friendly botanicals she never leaves home without. Here's a peek at what's in her handbag!
"This floral tropical mist came out of my love of the islands. It features many skin-specific flower essences I've been using for years that give me results I love! I spritz my face and follow with a few drops of the Radiant Rose Glow facial serum to increase hydration, rejuvenation, and circulation throughout the day."
"I like to keep my skin, especially around my eyes, hydrated and nourished throughout the day. I live in a dry climate so when I'm out, I apply the rose eye cream as often as needed. It also tends to enliven tired eyes."
"I use this gorgeous aroma to create a euphoric mood and lovely perfumed aura."

One alternative to forwarding a message is to save the email to a file and then attach the message as an email attachment. Some email clients have a button for this, like Microsoft Outlook .

Q: Select all radio buttons which are checked with prototype I have several input elements which look like this:
<input type="radio" checked="checked" value="1" name="handle[123]" />
<input type="radio" checked="checked" value="2" name="handle[456]" />

The number inside the name attribute is an object id i need. Now what I want to do is:

*

*Fetch all input which are of type="radio" and are checked with prototype

*Put all ids and values in an associative array

...so the resulting array looks something like this:
array{ 1 => 123, 2 => 456 }

Any ideas?

A: To get the checked radio button given a form id, and the name of the radio group:
function RF(el, radioGroup) {
    if($(el).type && $(el).type.toLowerCase() == 'radio') {
        var radioGroup = $(el).name;
        var el = $(el).form;
    } else if ($(el).tagName.toLowerCase() != 'form') {
        return false;
    }

    var checked = $(el).getInputs('radio', radioGroup).find(
        function(re) {return re.checked;}
    );
    return (checked) ? $F(checked) : null;
}

var value = RF('form_id', 'radio_grp_name');

Hope it helps

A: Here's what I came up with:
var results = [];
document.body.select('input[type=radio]:checked').each(function (element) {
    var object = {};
    object[element.value] = element.name.match(/\d+/)[0];
    results.push(object);
});

new Ajax.Request('/some_url', {
  method: 'post',
  parameters: results
});

Demo

A: $$('input:checked[type=radio]').each(function (ele) {
    output[ele.name.match(/\d+/)[0]] = ele.value;
});

This would give the desired output using prototype
