Why Was The Log In My Fireplace Foaming After I Put It In?


I’ve never seen a log start foaming before. My only theory is maybe there was some kind of fungi or lichen on the log that made it react to the heat that way. The only part I saw foaming was the tip end of the log, not the side of the log where lichen or some other kind of fungi is usually visible. The end of the log looked perfectly normal (no fungi or niches) aside from the foaming.
Thanks in advance for your theories!

North Korea Recalled Russian Workers To Be Prepared For War. Your Thoughts?


A mass exodus of North Korean workers from the Far East of Russia is under way, according to reports coming out of the region.
As the two Koreas edged towards the brink of war this week, it appears that the workers in Russia have been called back to aid potential military operations.
Vladnews agency, based in Vladivostok, reported that North Korean workers had left the town of Nakhodka en masse shortly after the escalation of tension on the Korean peninsula earlier this week. “Traders have left the kiosks and markets, workers have abandoned building sites, and North Korean secret service employees working in the region have joined them and left,” the agency reported.
Russia’s migration service said that there were over 20,000 North Koreans in Russia at the beginning of 2010, of which the vast majority worked in construction. The workers are usually chaperoned by agents from Kim Jong-il’s security services and have little contact with the world around them. Defectors have suggested that the labourers work 13-hour days and that most of their pay is sent back to the government in Pyongyang. Hundreds of workers have fled the harsh conditions and live in hiding in Russia, constantly in fear of being deported back to North Korea.
“North Korea’s government sends thousands of its citizens to Russia to earn money, most of which is funnelled through government accounts,” says Simon Ostrovsky, a journalist who discovered secret North Korean logging camps in the northern Siberian taiga. “Workers are often sent to remote locations for years at a time to work long hours and get as little as three days off per year.” Now it appears that some kind of centralised order has been given for the workers to return home.
Russia’s Pacific port of Vladivostok is thousands of miles and seven time zones from Moscow, but only around 100 miles from the country’s heavily controlled border with North Korea. In 1996, a diplomat from the South Korean consulate in the city was murdered with a poisoned pencil, in what was widely believed to be a hit carried out by the North’s secret agents. There are even two North Korean restaurants in the city. It is not known how many of the workers in other Russian towns have been called back to their homeland this week, or whether the exodus is permanent or temporary.

Atheists: They’re Teaching My Son About Jesus In Daycare. Help?


The daycare says they’re not religiouslt affiliated. My son came home one day and said that they were taught that baby Jesus was born on Christmas. I don’t want my son growing up with religious bullsh*t. I don’t think it’s right that they teach them about Jesus in a daycare. If someone talked about Zeus or Muhammad, everyone’s parents would flip sh*t. What would you do in my situation?
He’s 4 years old by the way. How is it right for a daycare who says they’re nonreligious to tell them about Jesus?
What would you do?

What’s The Extended Metaphor Or Comparison In This Selection?


Open Your Minds America
SAN ANTONIO, Texas — As people shout over each other and tune out diverging views in town hall meetings, the health care debate is proving to be symptomatic of a major ailment threatening our nation:
A contagious culture of closed-mindedness threatens to suffocate our progress as a society.
Why has it become so difficult to even consider changing our minds about important issues?
Here’s my diagnosis.
Increasingly, the willingness to change one’s position on political issues has been misread as a mark of weakness rather than a product of attentive listening and careful deliberation.
During the 2004 Presidential campaign, the successful branding of John Kerry as a flip-flopper doomed his bid. Fear of “flip-flopper syndrome” is apparently catching like the flu, because todayโ€™s politicians are not alone in their determination to adhere to partisan positions despite the changing needs of our nation.
Nearly everyone’s so reluctant to appear wishy-washy that they stand firm even when the evidence is against their views.
Three factors exacerbate this paralysis by lack of analysis: labels, lifestyles and listening.
First, the labels ascribed to many potential policy tools render sensible options taboo, loading what could be rational, economic or social measures with moral baggage. This narrows our choices, hemming in policy makers.
Any proposal including the words “government-run” elicits cries of “socialism” and “communism.” Any argument invoking the words “God” or “moral” sparks accusations of “right-wing extremism,” “fascism,” or “Bible-thumping.” Instead of listening to each other’s ideas, we spot the warning label and run the other way.
Second, our lifestyles favor knee-jerk reactions. The way we think, work and live in the Digital Age demands we quickly categorize information without investing time into rich interaction, research and understanding.
We’re hesitant to ask questions because we don’t have time to listen to the long, complicated answers that might follow. And we lack the time to fact-check competing claims. In our haste, it’s easier to echo our party’s position than drill down, questioning whether party leaders are motivated by our best interests or the best interests of their biggest contributors.
Third, we tend to listen only to like-minded opinions as media fragmentation encourages us to filter out varying perspectives. If you’re a liberal, you avoid FOX News. If you’re a conservative you revile MSNBC. The dynamic is even more pronounced online, where a niche media source can be found for any outlook.
This silences the opportunity for meaningful dialogue and deliberation that might lead to reformulating positions, forging sustainable compromises, and developing consensus crucial to moving our nation forward on complex issues.
So how can we overcome this challenge, starting with the health care debate? How do we open our minds to the possibility that we could actually learn from somebody else?
a)
liberals and conservatives
b)
people who canโ€™t make up their minds to politician John Kerry
c)
politicians and right-wing extremism
d)
the health-care debate to an ailment or sickness

How To Hide High School Record?


Hello,
I was recently expelled from my high school for an offense I did not commit (tampering with school records via electronic equipment). I was a sophomore last year and lately I’ve been thinking of applying to colleges as a home school student as I was unhappy with my previous school’s academic program as it was and wish to continue my intellectual passions separately. My academic record from that school is also spotty and I do not believe it reflects my true capabilities. Revealing my transcripts and student records from this school will no doubt set me back a far way when it comes to college admissions.
I’ve been looking into ways in which I can ensure that colleges will not be able to find out I previously attended that high school if I decide to apply as a home school student or to switch to another school in a different county and district.
I’ve been looking into things such as FERPA blocks, but these still seem to allow college admissions counselors and others affiliated with universities to access my records.
Intuitively, it doesn’t seem possible that any college would be able to find my records in unreported schools or would even have the incentive of doing so given the means.
I also do not wish to be dishonest, but at the same time I also have high aspirations which I do not believe should be tarnished due to school records.
Thank you for your help!
