A Politics of God and a Politics of Man
Johann Joseph Most (5 February 1846 in Augsburg – 17 March 1906 in Cincinnati) was a German-American anarchist and orator.
He is best known for accepting the strategy of "propaganda of the deed," which promoted direct action against a single person or institution (including the use of violence) to force revolutionary change and inspire further action by others.
He travelled in Europe, and he lived in countries such as France and United Kingdom.
In 1906, in Ohio, he fell sick because of a chronic case of erysipelas, a bacterial skin infection, in an era without any antibiotic treatments.
Most died in a few days.
Memoiren (New York, 1903).
Johann Most Page  Anarchist Encyclopedia
In 1884 he went into exile in England and also travelled to the USA.
After he returned to Italy in 1894, he was arrested and had to spend two years in prison.

Murray Newton Rothbard (March 2, 1926 – January 7, 1995) was an American economist and writer.
He helped make the Austrian School of economics popular in the United States.
Rothbard helped to create modern libertarianism, a political belief in less government and more personal freedom.
He founded a form of free-market anarchism which he called "anarcho-capitalism".
Rothbard believed society should organise itself, and he didn't like central planning.
Rothbard advocated the abolition of government control of society and the economy.
He considered the monopoly force of government the greatest danger to liberty and the long-term well-being of the people.
He called the state a "gang of thieves writ large — the most immoral, grasping and unscrupulous individuals in any society".
Rothbard thought that all services provided by monopoly governments could be provided more efficiently by the private sector.
According to him, many regulations and laws passed "for the public interest" were self-interested power grabs by scheming government bureaucrats to make themselves look important.
These schemes were not subject to market disciplines.
Rothbard was equally condemning of big business working with government.
Business elites, he thought, used government's monopoly power so as to influence laws and regulatory policy to help themselves at the expense of their competitive rivals.
He argued that taxation was theft on a grand scale, backed by law.
It was "a compulsory monopoly of force" which prevented the more efficient voluntary procurement of defense and judicial services from competing suppliers.
He also argued against central banking and fractional reserve banking.
A monopoly system where the government decides how much money to print is, to him, a form of state-sponsored, legalized financial fraud.
It is against libertarian principles and ethics.
Rothbard opposed military, political, and economic interferences in the affairs of other nations.

Carlo Tresca (1879 - January 11, 1943 New York City) was an Italian-born American anarchist, newspaper editor, and labor agitator.
Tresca was famous for the fight and the opposition to the fascism, stalinism, and the mafia.
Tresca was part of the defense committee for accused murderers Sacco and Vanzetti, and frequently spoke in their defense at rallies and in articles.
During the 1930s, Tresca became an outspoken opponent of Soviet Communists and Stalinism, particularly after the Soviet Union had engineered the destruction of the anarchist movement in Catalonia and Aragon during the Spanish Revolution.
Before this, Tresca had supported the Bolsheviks, with the excuse of that a Communist state was preferable to a capitalist state.
In early 1938 Tresca publicly accused the Soviets of kidnapping Juliet Poyntz to prevent her defection from the Communist Party USA.
Tresca said that, before she had disappeared, Poyntz had talked to him about her disgust over Joseph Stalin's Great Terror.
In 1941 Tresca, in a revealing moment, admitted to Max Eastman that Nicola Sacco was guilty of the crime with which he was charged, though Vanzetti was innocent.
In New York, Tresca also began a public campaign of criticism of the Mafia in his weekly newspaper, Il Martello.
Tresca was killed probably by the mafia, with a gun shot.
Others have thought that Tresca was eliminated by the NKVD because of the criticism of the Stalin regime of the Soviet Union.

A total of Seventeen cities showed interest in being chosen as World Cup host cities: São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre, Brasília, Belém, Campo Grande, Cuiabá, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Fortaleza, Goiânia, Manaus, Natal, Recife (a stadium would be shared by both cities), Rio Branco and Salvador.
Maceió withdrew in January 2009.
According to current FIFA practice, no more than one city may use two stadiums, and the number of host cities is limited between eight and ten.
The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) requested permission to assign 12 cities hosting World Cup Finals.
On 26 December 2008, FIFA gave the green light to the 12-city plan.
Even before the 12 host cities were selected, there were few doubts that the chosen venue for the final match will be the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, which also hosted the decisive match of the 1950 FIFA World Cup.
Originally the CBF's intentions were to have the opening match at Morumbi Stadium in São Paulo, the largest city in Brazil.
However, on 14 June 2010 the stadium was excluded from hosting games in the tournament due to a failure to provide financial guarantees for the improvements needed to have it as an eligible venue.
In the end of August 2010, the CBF announced that the new Corinthians stadium will host the matches in São Paulo.
The 12 host cities for the 2014 World Cup were announced on 31 May 2009.
Belém, Campo Grande, Florianópolis, Goiânia and Rio Branco were rejected.

Ephedrine (or EPH) is an alkaloid found in plants of the genus Ephedra.
It can also be found in other plants like wolfsbane or the Euopean yew.
Ephedrine has effects on the human body.
It can be used as a stimulant or a decongestant.
It is also used to treat certain forms of low blood pressure or to help hunger.
Ephedrine is like amphetamine and methamphetamine.
The herb má huáng (麻黄, Ephedra sinica) is used in traditional Chinese medicine.
It has ephedrine and pseudoephedrine in it.
Nagayoshi Nagai was the first person to take ephedrine from Ephedra vulgaris in 1885.
The substance called soma, mentioned in old Hindu books such as the Rig Veda, may have been ephedra extract.
Ephedrine is sometimes used for doping, usually together with caffeine and salicylic acid.
There have been lots of controversies related to Ephedrine.
The production of ephedrine in China has become a multi-million dollar industry.
Companies extract $13 million worth of ephedrine from 30,000 tons of ephedra per year, 10 times the amount that is used in traditional Chinese medicine.
Zapata was ambushed and shot by Mexican troops in 1919.

Pseudoephedrine (commonly abbreviated as PSE) is a decongestant.
The salts pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and pseudoephedrine sulfate are found in many over-the-counter drugs either as single-ingredient preparations, or more commonly in combination with antihistamines, paracetamol (acetaminophen) and/or ibuprofen.
Sudafed is a trademark for a common brand which contains pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, though Sudafed PE does not.
Drugs containing pseudoephedrine are commonly used as a treatment for Rhinitis (an inflammation of the mucous mebranes in the nose)
Some countries started to replace pseudoephedrine by other drugs, such as phenylephrine.
The reason for this is that pseudoephedrine can be used to make methamphetamine, which is an illegal drug.

A Raster image processor is a component that can be found in some printers.
The raster image processor receives the data in a description language, like Postscript, PCL, or PDF and converts it to a bitmap or raster image.
Raster image processing can be done in two ways: as Software running as part of the operating system, or as a special microprocessor inside the printer.
Cheaper printers use a solution called host-based printing, where this is done in the operating system, more expensive printers, and those that support PCL, Postscript or a similar language have a Raster image processor inside the printer.
Stages of RIP
Interpretation: This is the stage where the supported PDLs (Page description languages) are translated into a private internal representation of each page.
Most RIPs process pages one after another so the current machine state is only for the current page.
They do one page at a time.
Once a page has been output the page state is discarded to make the RIP ready for the next page.
Rendering: A process through which the private internal representation is turned into a continuous tone bitmap.
Note that in practical RIPs interpretation and rendering are frequently done together.
Simple languages (mostly the most ancient) were designed to work on minimal hardware so tend to "directly drive" the renderer.
Screening: In order to print, a continuous-tone bitmap is converted into a halftone (pattern of dots).
Two screening methods or types are Amplitude Modulation (AM) screening and stochastic or Frequency Modulation (FM) screening.
In AM screening, dot size varies depending on object density -- tonal values; dots are placed in a fixed grid.
In FM screening, dot size remains constant and dots are placed in random order to create darker or lighter areas of the image; dot placement is precisely controlled by sophisticated mathematical algorithms.

Alkaloids are natural basic chemical compounds which contain nitrogen atoms.
Alkaloids are made by a large variety of organisms, but taxanes are produced only by plants of the genus Taxus.
Taxanes work mainly by disrupting the function of cell microtubules.
Microtubules are essential to cell division, so taxanes are essentially mitotic inhibitors.
This explains why taxanes have been used to produce chemotherapy drugs.
A brooch is a piece of jewelry that is attached to clothes.
It is usually made of metal, silver or gold but sometimes bronze and decorated with gemstones.

An autopsy (also called a post-mortem examination) is a medical examination of a corpse to find out what killed it (disease or injury).
Autopsies are done by specialised doctors, called pathologists.
Autopsies are not done all the time.
They are usually done either for medical reasons, or for legal ones.
One of the legal reasons why an autopsy is done is to find out if the death was the result of a crime.
A medical case is to find the cause of death when it is unclear.
Sometimes autopsies are done to train new doctors.
Sometimes, the cause of death can be found by simply looking at the corpse without opening it.
In other cases, it may need to be opened, to find the cause of death.
If it is opened, it is usually closed again; most of the time, corpses are buried.
Before being buried, they are on display for some time.
For this, they need to look acceptable.
In certain cases, like when the corpse is opened, special permissions are perhaps necessary.
These are usually given by the closest living relative, called next of kin.
