Tomorrow's topic:
My butler wakes me up at noon with his incessant vacuuming - how can I get him fired?
Uennie, I think it may be time to give up the fight. Our advice isnt what she wants to hear and Im very familiar with this type of person. Its pretty evident she wants an easy way out when there is no easy way to be had.
So yea, I had a job, I worked. And I would have had to work a few years more if I hadn't got really lucky this summer with an opportunity that got me $150,000. I hated the job and I hated the place I lived so I quit the next day, made plans for college and moved back. It was a one time thing though, I'll never get an opportunity like that again. So I used $25.000 to renovate my room, buy new furniture and new clothes and everything. I also had to pay 1/4 of the new heating system. My brother was also supposed to pay hes share but he couldn't afford it so he still "owes" the money.
And no, I can't afford another decent place without getting some night job if I want to still have enough left for the college fees. Why should I go through all that because my brother is being selfish?
Stop white knighting, this is over, I mean for fuck's sake Toffie. She doesn't want to move out and she said that in earlier posts because there's no pool or garden or anything else she's used to. She won't even go live in one of the other houses her parents owns because of that. People already suggested student housing and she refused. Read the entire thread before throwing shade, hunty.
I am done trying to convince you to be an adult and move out. If you want to be a spoiled child, so be it, but recognize that people here actually tried to help you and you decided you didn't want to be an adult and shot them down.

Analytics firm Sensor Tower has found that while the iMessage App Store that Apple introduced in iOS 10 got off to a strong start, it's now stagnating. The good news: nearly 5000 apps now boast iMessage compatibility. However, that growth has slowed significantly, from 116 percent between September and the end of October to just 9 percent between January and February. The slowdown doesn't surprise us, as we've found most iMessage apps slow, hard to use, and largely pointless. Are you using any iMessage apps regularly? If so, tell us about them in the comments.follow link

Another cloudless day on the south coast saw this absorbing match swing inexorably towards the visitors until a tense and exciting final session, when Murray Goodwin and Luke Wright dragged their team back into the game.
The pair came together in the second over after tea on 99 for four, still 20 behind. Sussex had started well enough as the openers Chris Nash and Ed Joyce passed 60 without undue alarm, only to lose three wickets for four runs when Nash went leg before to Andy Carter, Joyce dragged a Samit Patel delivery on to his stumps from well outside off-stump, and Joe Gatting's defensive push failed to prevent Carter removing his off-stump.
When the captain, Michael Yardy, also went leg before to the persevering Carter, it looked as though a three-day finish was on the cards. So it might have been had the Nottinghamshire captain, Chris Read, been able to call on Andre Adams, but arguably the most effective seam bowler in the County Championship was nursing a sore shoulder.
Against a tiring attack Goodwin and Wright put together an unbeaten partnership of 78, which means Sussex go into the final day leading by 58. That Wright should be a key figure was to be expected. After an absence of almost 10 months through illness and injury, the 27-year-old has found immediate form with the bat, scoring 59, 103, 80 and now 37 not out. He rode his luck at times, most notably on 31 when Ben Phillips could not hold a caught-and-bowled chance despite getting both hands to the ball. But otherwise Wright played with commendable responsibility.
That Goodwin should be involved was less predictable. The Zimbabwean had mustered only 39 runs in eight championship innings, and another failure would almost certainly have led him to be dropped for the first time in his 11 seasons with Sussex.
Initially tentative, by stumps he was recognisably the unfussy accumulator of old, his half-century coming off 124 balls. It was a shame that he should have to be summoned to the umpires' room to be admonished for a verbal confrontation with Carter.
Earlier in the day, resuming on 320 for four and already leading by 11, Nottinghamshire quickly lost Adam Voges, caught off Jimmy Anyon when a leading edge flew gently to Monty Panesar at mid-on.
Riki Wessels, 184 not out overnight, had received a challenging congratulatory text from his father, the former Australia and South Africa opening batsman Kepler, betting him he would not be able to overhaul his old man's personal first-class best score of 254.
Playing with a deliberation that suggested the target was much in his mind, Wessels Jr worked his way to 199 when he was drawn into playing at a Steve Magoffin delivery that did just enough to take the edge.
Ben Phillips quickly followed, skying an attempted pull off Anyon to Panesar, and it was left to Read to ensure the tail wagged sufficiently to drag the lead into three figures. He eventually fell to the off-spin of Nash, to whom Yardy was once again bafflingly late to turn.
Sussex will now look to Panesar to deliver his county a famous victory on a dry, cracked wicket that should suit the left-arm spinner.
"It's the sort of game you take half hour by half hour," said the Sussex coach, Mark Robinson. "Monty struggled to cope with the crosswind in their first innings, but we did a little 'tlc' on his action this morning and he immediately began to turn it past the bat. There are also some footmarks for Chris Nash to bowl into, so it could all get very interesting."

Today's Recipe - Insanely Addictive Roasted Tomato & Cheese Dip
Insanely Addictive Roasted Tomato & Cheese Dip
If I had to choose food from only one course for the rest of my life, I wouldn't hesitate in choosing appetizers. Diverse and delicious, they are the foundation of a good party, and I collect recipes for them with fervency. This one for roasted tomato and brie dip is taking its rightful place at the top of my recipe heap these days, as it's amazing.
The recipe is from Wanna Be a Country Cleaver, and she calls it "crack".
I don't disagree; it's completely addictive. You start with incredibly
flavorful roasted tomatoes then combine them with creamy brie, an array
of delectable spices, and some cream cheese, then bake it all into one
bubbly, cheesy pan of deliciousness. Spread it on a baguette, and it's
Roasted Tomato Brie Dip
8 ounces Brie, rind removed and softened
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
5 large tomatoes, halved and deseeded
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
1 Tbsp rosemary
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup basil, chopped
Baguette, sliced and toasted
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Lay tomatoes, which have been deseeded and patted dry, sliced side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, rosemary, sea salt, ground pepper, and garlic.
Bake for 30 minutes until roasted. Remove from baking sheet and allow to cool. Dice when cool enough to handle.
Reduce heat on oven to 350 degrees.
In mixer or large bowl, beat together cream cheese and brie until mixed together. Add in diced roasted tomato and basil. When incorporated together, pour cheese mixture into an oven safe bowl and bake for 25 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes, and in that time toast the sliced baguette.
Serve while warm. And don't forget to breathe.

I used the etch rc1 i386 net install image. Think it was about 135MB big. My problem was that it wouldn't pick up any eth interfaces and because I new I had them I had to manually insert the eth1 interface and only once Gnome was installed could I get the wireless setup on eth0.
> * Getting my Belkin PCI card operational (still not 100% correct and > only connecting at 11mbps instead of the 54 it's capable of) ndis or native driver?
Well this is a little confusing to me. Intially I was using the bcm43 driver which shipped with Sid and this worked. My problem as mentioned was the 11mbps connection vs 54. Then I tried ndiswrapper to install the windows driver which was on the install CD. It seems to be installed but it still doesn't actually increase my connection speed and remains at 11mbps.
> * Preventing Gnome from crashing almost immediately on startup (only > an upgrade to unstable fixed this) That sounds like an RC bug. Could you say what messages (if any) you got? Did failsafe GNOME sessions worked?
Gnome failsafe did work. I can't remember any messages now but what I did experience was a hang almost immediately once Gnome started up. I had a similar issue once on my iBook and found beagled to be the problem so I removed this from my system. Seemed to work but still had a lot of problems starting up. I then upgraded to Sid from Etch and never had another problem.
> * Various network related issues (lots of trial and error) please explain/be more specific
Well I had a lot of problems trying to connect to windows servers as well as my office wifi network. When I spoke of lots of trial and error what I meant was that I had to try various different connection options in connecting to the wifi network.
> * Not able to print to a SMB network printer (tried everything yet > still can't get there) not sure what you tried, so I don't have a starting point for ideas
The printer settings option in Gnome refused to pickup my network printer for whatever reason. I did a little searching and found this information [1] which I used to setup the printer. I now have the printer setup and the printer can see me when I spool jobs to it but for some weird reason print jobs never come out. The printer spool hangs and I have to manually cancel the print job at the printer itself.

Libs accused of snubbing budget briefing
The Canberra Liberals are under fire for not sending any MLAs to a top-level Treasury briefing on the state of the ACT budget.
Last Friday, four senior Opposition staffers attended a briefing with the under treasurer Megan Smithies and another Treasury official on the pre-election budget update.
Opposition Leader Zed Seselja's office requested the briefing from Treasury but neither he nor the shadow Treasurer Brendan Smyth attended.
Instead the MLA's staffers and campaign director Stephen Doyle sat in on the meeting.
Labor says it shows a lack of interest and has questioned whether it is acceptable under caretaker conventions to send only staff to a briefing usually given to MLAs.
A Liberal spokesman says it was sufficient to send senior staff to the briefing and Treasury was aware MLAs would not be attending.
ACT Treasurer Andrew Barr says it was inappropriate for the Liberals to send their campaign director.
Mr Barr says it raises questions over how seriously Mr Seselja is taking the process.
"He wishes to be chief minister in three weeks," he said.
"If he can't even attend a briefing on the pre-selection budget update that his office has requested on his behalf, it does raise some questions about how seriously he's taking his campaign.
"I would think it'd be inappropriate for the Labor Party campaign director to be attending briefings with Treasury officials during the campaign."
But Mr Seselja says he did not know his election campaign director had attended the briefing.
He says the Government now has questions to answer about why they are interfering with the process.
"But it is interesting that we sought assurances from the Government that they wouldn't be interfering in the process as we deal with Treasury," he said.
"Yet it seems that we've got Government now going and briefing the media about our dealings.
"There's a concern there that needs to be answered."
Labor says it has no knowledge of, or concerns about, what was discussed.
But the Liberals insist they will write to the under treasurer seeking assurances that officials will not discuss the content of such briefings with Labor ministers or anyone else.
A spokeswoman for the Liberals also says it is the Opposition's prerogative to bring whoever they choose to a briefing.

Alas Kedaton Bali Reviews

Alas Kedaton Monkey Forest Mar 21, 2011
There are no shortages of temples and monkey forests in Bali. This one was probably the third one I have visited. Alas Kedaton is a small forest in the middle of a rice field. From Denpasar the monkey forest is around 17 km, and from Kuta around 14 km. When you get to the parking lot at the entrance, the monkeys are already there, hoping you will feed them. Entrance fee is very cheap. There are many gift shops that you must pass by before actually getting into the actual temple grounds. The monkeys seem more tame here, some people actually let them sit on their shoulder when they feed them (Rini)! haha
There is a pathway that passes by the side of the temple, leading through part of the forest. It circles around and you will arrive back at the shops. Although I never let any of the monkeys get up on my shoulder, one thing that makes this monkey forest memorable, I did hold a snake and a bat, both of them were huge, as you can see in the pictures. They charge you to do this, but then you can take all the pictures you want. They also offer to take pictures for more money. Alas Kedaton is not crowded, at all. It's a nice place to stop and vist. If you want some history lessons on the temple, there are guides who will take you through.

Holy Monkey Forest Dec 11, 2010
Alas Kedaton is the name of a temple in the holy forest. Many monkeys live in this forest as they believe as the guards. The tour going to this holy place is usually when you are going to Bedugul area in Tabanan district.
The place itself is pretty quiet unlike the other tourism places in Bali, you can feel the sacred and quietness.
The complex has three yards that are the outside, middle and center yard. In the center and middle yard are encircled by wall and the outside yard is representing a open yard. The monkey is not the only animal you will find here, you will also find huge bats and snake that you can take picture with.
The entrance fee is so cheap like other temples in Bali. And you will find some women approaching you to become your tour guide. It is for free, but when the tour is done, you will be requested to buy something from their store which is located just outside the entrance as a compensation for being your tour guide. They will reject a free money. You can just say no to their offer as a tour guide or just buy something from their store, with bargains.

Alas Kedaton - Monkey Forest Jul 04, 2008
Alas Kedaton a Monkey Forest located in Tabanan, in Bali. This is definitely a place for MONKEY LOVERS! Even though the monkeys are more behaved and friendly compared to Sangeh and Uluwatu, it is a must to be escorted by a tour guide when you enter this place. The guide will instruct you on how to feed the monkeys and how to avoid too much Love from the monkeys!
As at similar areas, the monkeys are always thrilled by the peanuts! You can buy peanuts at a booth provided in the garden for only Rp. 3000 approximately US$0.30 (30 cents). You are allowed to give the peanuts to the monkeys and they will play and climb on your shoulder, or actually, all over you! Sort of cool, if you like Monkeys, but still, be calm and careful!
Be really careful when you are in very close contact with the Monkeys, because sometimes, if they don't understand your "affection" they might scratch or bite you. Ask my fellow-traveler, RiJo! Fortunately, the monkeys are regularly injected; therefore they are tetanus-free.

Offshore realities: risks, challenges and prospects
Cost: $
One of the main business events in the fiscal sphere this fall, INTAX EXPO, which took place in Moscow, was attended by more than 415 participants, representing 43 jurisdictions. In the course of the lecture program Ukraine was represented by Yaroslav Abramov, who made a presentation, dedicated to peculiarities and prospects of tax planning and corporate structuring of international companies, operating in Ukraine.
In the theoretical part of the presentation, Mr. Abramov made a short excursus to the Ukrainian normative basis of taxation, cited statistics, demonstrating annual increase of Ukrainian residents' operations with offshore companies and showed imperfections and the hidden risks of the Ukrainian tax legislation for non-residents. During the practical part of the speech, the expert outlined the most typical schemes of withdrawal Ukrainian assets to offshore and their step-by-step implementation. He also explained the key parameters to be taken into consideration while choosing jurisdiction and the mechanism of using offshore companies. The culminating issue of Mr. Abramov's presentation was the consideration of further prospects of offshore business in light of legislative changes, including the amendments to the Law "On Mandatory State Pension Insurance". These changes provide the introduction of extra charge on offshore transactions.
Summarizing the results of the INTAX EXPO conference, Yaroslav Abramov noticed: "Issues of tax optimization with the use of offshore are becoming more and more important. So during my participation in the conference INTAX EXPO, the State Committee of Ukraine for Regulatory Policy and Entrepreneurship imposed the additional charge at the rate of 12% on transactions of Ukrainian business with companies, registered in offshore jurisdictions. Besides, legislative innovations provide the payment of 5% of the income in the form of dividends, interest and royalties to non-resident" (extended comment Mr. Abramov on this issue, see Ъ of 14.09)

Now Playing:
"Smurfs 2" – A sequel to the surprisingly not-terrible 2011 kiddie blockbuster is, sadly, just as pointless, unnecessary and, yes, lame as anyone over the age of 6 might have anticipated. Yawn. (C-).
"2 Guns" – An homage to the stripped down, unapologetically nasty (and "R"-rated), down-and-dirty genre flicks directors like Don Siegel ("Dirty Harry"), Walter Hill ("The Driver") and Sam Peckinpah ("Straw Dogs") were making in the 1970's. (30 minutes in, I'd already come up with a new, and infinitely better, title: "Bring Me the Head of Charley Varrick.") Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington are in top form, and I wouldn't mind seeing them pair up for an eventual sequel. But the film is stolen by the deliciously venal bad guys: Bill Paxton, Edward James Olmos and James Marsden. The script is tricky and full of double and even triple crosses, yet it's never too clever for its own good. The whiff of paranoia emanating from its core–a keen distrust of virtually every American institution/agency (the CIA, the DEA, the military)–is very 70's, too, and even the objectification of its dominant female presence (the lovely Paula Patton) feels very Peckinpah-ish. You keep waiting for it to fall apart by succumbing to the 21st century Hollywood action movie tendency to go big, bigger, biggest, but it never really does. In fact, the best scenes are intimate 2-and-3 handers shot in tightly enclosed interiors. The film's essential modesty and singular lack of pretension save the day. (B+).
New on DVD:
"Mud" – Two fourteen year-old boys (refreshingly natural screen newcomers Tye Sheridan and Jacob Lofland) help a fugitive (a wildly charismatic Matthew McConaughey) reunite with an old girlfriend (Reese Witherspoon, deeply moving). Director Jeff ("Take Shelter") Nichols' unerring touch with regional details and flavoring–it was shot on location in the backwaters of Mississippi–helps catapult this indie sleeper into near-classic status. (A).
"Oblivion" – Another dystopian sci-fi adventure flick, this one directed by Joseph ("Tron Legacy") Kosinski and starring a seen-better-days Tom Cruise. Pretty to look at–Kosinski definitely has an eye–but overly derivative (the plot feels cobbled together from a half-dozen other movies), hard to follow on a scene by scene basis and ultimately just kind of dull. I was just grateful that it wasn't in 3-D. (C).
"On the Road" – Walter ("The Motorcycle Diaries") Salles' shiveringly gorgeous adaptation of the iconic Jack Kerouac novel brings the Beat Generation to vivid–and intoxicatingly erotic–cinematic life. Director of photography Eric Gautier may be the single greatest cinematographer working today. (A).
"The Place Beyond the Pines" – Like director Derek Cianfrance's 2010 début, "Blue Valentine," this lengthy, episodic adult drama burns with the filmmaking heat–and hubris–of the New Hollywood era. While densely novelistic in texture (think a testosterone-amped Joyce Carol Oates) and splendidly acted, it suffers from a schematic structure that gives you nothing to chew on afterwards. Cianfrance and his marvelous cast (including Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper, Eva Mendes and Dane DeHaan) held me in their grip for nearly two-and-a-half hours, but I had a hard time believing their overly determined narrative. (B).
"To the Wonder" – Another exquisitely beautiful, deeply poetic work by master filmmaker Terrence ("The Tree of Life," "Days of Heaven") Malick, the contemporary cinema's foremost transcendentalist. The very fine cast includes Ben Affleck, Rachel McAdams, Olga Kurylanko and Javier Bardem, but the true star of any Malick film is Malick himself. Long may he run. (A).
"West of Memphis" – Even if you've seen Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky's "Paradise Lost" trilogy, this Peter Jackson-produced documentary about the West Memphis Three still has considerable staying power. And if you haven't seen any of the "Paradise Lost" films, you truly can't afford to miss it. (B+).

Rose Bowl Koozies Update
The Rose Bowl Koozies turned out great. My phone pic does not do justice to the fine detail of "The Patterson Hoist". If you are wondering why there is no top to the pyramid, ask GP what kind of koozie belongs there. I sold off half of my inventory before they were even printed, and have about 300 left of the original 1,000. Orders that were placed between 1/19 and 3pm this afternoon will be shipped out today. Thank you for all of the orders, and remember to send in pics to firstname.lastname@example.com . I have an idea in the works for a koozie pic tournament to help keep us sane when we hit rock bottom after baseball season waiting for football to kick off. There will be prizes, so get creative and send those pics in. If you haven't ordered yet, you can do so here.
Thank you GL for the first Rose Bowl Koozie pic sent in.
*only the Rose Bowl Koozies are available to order, the first generation (flying t) and second generation (patterson face) koozies are at the moment, no longer in production.

"Chevy Christmas"...Thanks Chris
Dec 17, 2008 | Views: 760
There wasn't a trace of a Ford or a Dodge.
The presents were wrapped and the lights were all lit,
So I figured I'd mess with the 57 chevy a bit.
I lifted the hood,
When a deep voice behind me said, " She looks pretty good."
Well, as you can imagine, I turned mighty quick,
And there, by the workbench, stood good ole Saint Nick!
We stood there a bit, not too sure what to say,
Then he said "I don't suppose you'd trade for my sleigh?
I said "No way, Santa" and started to grin,
"But if you've got the time we could go for a spin!"
His round little mouth, all tied up like a bow,
Turned into a smile and he said "Allright! Let's go!!"
So as not to disturb all the neighbors' retreat,
We pushed the Chevy quietly into the street.
Then taking our places to drift down the hill,
I started my baby, it was always a thrill.
The sound that erupted took him by surprise,
But he liked it a lot, by the look in his eyes.
With tires a'cryin' and headers aglow,
We headed on out where the hot rodders go.
And Santa's grin widened, approaching his ears,
With every shift up as it went through the gears.
Then he yelled "I can't recall when I felt so alive!"
So I backed off the gas and said "You wanna drive?"
Ole Santa was stunned when I gave him the keys,
When he walked past the headlights he shook at the knees!
Then the small block erupted with that Flowmaster sound,
When Santa stomped on the gas the tires shook the ground!
Chirped into second and again into third,
I just sat there holding on, at a loss for words.
Then I heard him exclaim as he blasted from sight,
"Merry Christmas to all, it's been a hell of a night!!!"

- I have to say it sure is better than the original version!!
- Dec 18, 2008 at 7:53 pm
- That's a WINNER! I'm gonna have to copy this, maybe rework it a tad, and do it on a Corvair theme. Hmmm... "More rapid than eagles his Corsas they came, and he laughed and he shouted and called them by name; On Monza, on Spyder, on Yenko and Fitch..."
Yeah, there are possibilities...
- Dec 18, 2008 at 7:00 pm
- Fantastic! My husband and his Dad wrote a similar verse 40 years or so ago! I guess car guys are always car guys!

Blogging Doctor Who, New Series 8
Little care from The Caretaker — Take One
September 30, 2014, OTTAWA — The short version?
I really enjoyed "The Caretaker" when I watched it late Saturday night and into Sunday morning.
I'd been awake almost 20 hours when I hit Play, had worked 11 of those hours at the day-job and spent nearly two more riding to and from there on my bicycle.
I was tired, and I admit cracked a beer or three as I live-tweeted my first reactions.
To my regret, those tweets were an enthusiastic tailings pond spill I wish I could take back. But they do represent as "real" a reaction as my subsequent re-evaluation. And since I don't believe in censoring reality, they will stay on my Twitter timeline and live on also as a sidebar — pre-commentary, if you like — to my review.
The short version is that I thought the episode pretty awful when I watched it by sunlight. To paraphrase the blogger Patches365, it was a mean-spirited "tragedy of blunders" built on — not one — nor two, or even three — but four idiot plots. And it was an episode that tossed aside its best performer in favour of the cheapest of cheap laffs.
The long version? The long version lives on my site, of course, along with spite, spoilers and some thoughts on patterns as we reach the half-way point of what we can only hope will be Steven Moffat's farewell turn as Captain of the foundering ship Doctor Who.
Click here for Little Care — Take Two. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Feels like a contractual obligation
September 22, 2014, OTTAWA — No real rant, certainly no rave.
I had a busy weekend, back at soccer on Sunday and entertaining (and being entertained by) an old friend come to town after far too long.
Still managed to check in on the latest episode of Doctor Who, but I almost wish I hadn't. I know I'm sorry I watched the episode a second time.
But I've made a commitment and I'm not breaking it. I live-tweeted the episode on Sunday morning and have added a few thoughts now. For the record, and probably for Geoffrey Dow completists only (dare I dream such folk exist?), click here for Time Waste.
Watching "Listen" (again)
September 16, 2014, OTTAWA — The first time I watched "Listen", home after an 11-hour shift that followed an early rise, I wrote, "I definitely enjoyed it, definitely want to watch it again." I also wrote, "It sounds silly when I type it out, but [the story] gave me the shivers ..."
Well, hell. I did watch it again and now it seemed silly when I watched as well. There were no shivers to be found.
What was there was a mixed bag of an episode, combining Steven Moffat's still-effective skills at atmospheric scenes, with a show-runner's determined but mis-guided need to further place his singular stamp upon Doctor Who's canon of mythology and back-story, and proof (as if any more were needed) that as a writer, he gives not a single damn for story-logic.
You don't have to read my review if you don't want your fun spoiled, you know. You really don't. Spoilers (in both senses of the term) ahoy!
Listen (to me!)
September 14, 2014, OTTAWA — I feel unesay.
Not because posting my inchoate, exhausted and half-drunk reactions to my first-watch of "Listen" makes me feel like an obsessive fan desperate to share his thoughts with all and sundry — although, clearly, that's what I am — but because I distrust the first reactions I so desperately want to share.
Yet here I am. Sharing my feelings instead of my thoughts, my knee's jerks rather than my practiced dance steps.
Steven Moffat has written an episode of Doctor Who that, on first viewing, I enjoyed quite a lot. I liked it. But — or should that be and so ...? — I feel uneasy. I am afraid of what judgement sober second thought may call down upon my first reactions.
So for now and for the record, those who care to read can find those first reactions here.
I liked it; what did you think? And do you think you're opinion will change when (if) you watch it again?
Maidentrip: A girl's own adventure
in quest to sail solo around the world
waves goodbye at age of 14
|Maidentrip: Buy it at Amazon.
September 13, 2014, OTTAWA — Adventurers have long held a special place in the public's imagination. Brave and determined or selfish and monomaniacal, according to one's tastes, they are larger-than-life figures, accomplishing impressive — if arguably pointless — feats. Climbing the highest mountain, sailing the widest ocean, risking (and often losing) life and/or limb and leaving wives and children behind to wait, to wonder, and to mourn.
Why do it? we stay-at-homes might ask. Why trek from one coast of Antarctica to the other after failing to be first to the South Pole? Why try, not once but three times to be the first to scale Everest?
There probably isn't a better answer than George Mallory's laconic reply to a reporter before he died on that third attempt to climb Mount Everest: "Because it's there."
We certainly don't get any more a revealing answer from Laura Dekker, who at the age of 16 years, 123 days, achieved her years' long dream by becoming the youngest person to ever sail, alone, around the world, but Jillian Schlesinger's documentary, Maidentrip about her voyage is a moving and fascinating film despite its lack of firm answers.
The bare facts make for quite a story, and though its subject has disavowed the resulting film, if there is a young woman in your life who could do with something other than a Disney princess or a Kardashian as inspiration, click here for one hell of a girl's own adventure.

The Doctor and the Outlaw
|Travelling with the Doctor isn't enough. Clara longs for a real hero — Robin Hood! Screenshot from 'Robot of Sherwood'. Doctor Who Copyright © 2014 BBC.
September 9, 2014, OTTAWA — I don't know about you, but I can forgive quite a lot when I'm laughing. Plot holes, character inconsistencies, even magic arrows "Of Random Plot Resolution".
In other words, "Robot of Sherwood" was cracking good fun, a story that didn't take itself too seriously while still managing (mostly) to take the Doctor & Co. seriously enough. Our suspension bridge of disbelief swayed, but it did not snap and neither did it twirl.
Robot of Sherwood gifted us an episode rich with clever dialogue (banter, even), exciting and sometimes funny action sequences, good actors having a very good time performing a low-concept story (see its title) that far exceeded expectations.
Thank you, Mark Gatiss, for bringing fun back to the Tardis — and (oh, all right!) thank you, Steven Moffat, for staying the hell out of the way and letting it happen.
If you're old enough to remember (or like me, have travelled back in time to enjoy) "The Pirate Planet", you're almost sure to enjoy "Robot of Sherwood", and nevermind the lack of a tin dog or bird. Click here for the words of one critic clapping.
The good, the bad and the Doctor
September 3, 2014, OTTAWA — I feel dirty, like I awoke alone after a night of passion to realize my inamorata's clever words were lies, that her body had stained my sheets and her gentle caresses had left indelible, greasy streaks all over my body. Though I cannot deny the passions I had felt in the dark, with morning's light comes the fear that my wallet, and even my closet, may be empty.
I liked "Into the Dalek" when I watched it the first time. I really did. Even enjoyed it when I watched it a second time. Yet, when I began writing about it, started to think about what it was that had entertained me, the flaws shone ever brighter, like stars appearing one by one after the sun has slipped below the horizon.
"Into the Dalek" is the kind of episode that seduces with surface charms, then laughs at our pleasures, mocks our innocent hopes. Slick enough to entertain in the moment, the story shrivels under the the light of critical consideration.
Sorry, folks. I really thought this would be a positive review for a change. It was only when I began to write, and to really think about what I had watched, that I realized I had been fooled again. After all, The only good dalek ...

Heavy rain battered the Horsham district early this morning (Monday January 6) leading to flooding and misery for many commuters on their first day back from holiday.
Southern Rail services through Horsham Railway Station were suspended with rail replacement bus services running between Barnham and Three Bridges this morning.
Meanwhile the train operating company also announced the Horsham to Dorking line would be closed until February due to a recent landslip.
A burst water main caused Rudgwick Primary School to close for the entirety of the day.
Flooding played havoc with the A29 near Pulborough, while many roads in and around Horsham were severely congested as commuters struggled to get to work on time.
Two Horsham residents decided to skip the morning commute and enjoyed canoeing on the temporary 'Lake Bedford' near the railway station.
At the end of the day Horsham's Worthing Road was closed to allow pumps to clear water from the railway line.

On October 24, 2007 the Bolivian government issued Decree No. 29322 to redistribute, once again, the intake from the Direct Taxes to Hydrocarbons (Impuesto Directo a los Hidrocarburos, IDH). This tax is levied from the production, mainly, of natural gas exports. Before this latest Decree, the tax was distributed to the municipalities, universities and the departmental governments or Prefectures, with the latter receiving the larger amount of funds. After the new decree, the municipalities are the ones receiving the larger financing from the Central Government.
As a matter of clarification, the municipal governments have the task to further local development and the Prefectures worry about regional development.
This latest policy action by the Morales government has sparked protests on the part of the Prefectures, as was to be expected. At the moment the Prefectures of Santa Cruz, Beni, Pando and Tarija, as well as Sucre (with different motives), are preparing a fight to change the decree and revert the redistribution. Santa Cruz has decided it will fight with strikes, marches and town hall meetings. Beni, to date the most radical, has called its citizens to defend their share even with arms. La Paz, a stronghold for MAS supporters (though the Prefect is not masista), has announced cuts in public works in infrastructure and agriculture development.
The result will be another period of instability and power struggle between the regions and the central government.
In addition, the issue of the moving of the seat of government is not resolved. The Political Council, in charge of forging these agreements in order for the CA to continue, has threatened to move the sessions to Oruro. As a result, Sucre has tamed its stance and has shown some flexibility by trying to show that the sessions could continue with relative normality. However, Sucre has not abandoned its claim to be once again the seat of government.
On thing to point out is how an alliance, between the regions fighting to keep their share of the IDH and Sucre, is forming. In these days, the leader of the Santa Cruz movement, Marinkovic, has gone to Sucre to meet with the leaders there.
For the moment, there is no light at the end of the tunnel. No party is willing to give up its claim to arrive to a middle ground.

Ryugu Observation Campaign (for expert observers)
The target asteroid of Hayabusa2 is (162173) Ryugu, 1999 JU3 in the provisional designation. Hayabusa2 will arrive at this asteroid in June - July 2018. In this summer, we have a opportunity to observe Ryugu, so we set up "Ryugu Observation Campaign" from July 1 to August 15, 2016. This is the last chance to observe Ryugu before Hayabusa2 arrives there.
However the maximum apparent magnitude will be just 18th mag, so it is rather dark. Maybe you need a telescope with the diameter of 1m or so. Or you must follow the motion of Ryugu with your telescope. Therefor the observation will be rather difficult, but please try it if you can. Good luck!

All members of the project are engaged in the mission with a fresh mindset.
Message from New Project Manager Yuichi Tsuda
The Hayabusa2 is stably flying since its launch and smoothly continuing it interplanetary cruising. I can, therefore, take over the mission at the best condition from my predecessor, former Project Manager Hitoshi Kuninaka, who led the development of the project. With many operation experts joining the new team, we would like to successfully send the Hayabusa2 to the asteroid 1999JU3, and have it come home safely.

Recorded in San Francisco and released alongside an on-the-road-in-the-States documentary, this set has the Paris electro duo rupturing and nimbly reshaping tracks from last year's Crucifix album. Crowd response is in direct proportion to the excessiveness of the bass lines, which occasionally threaten to trigger a seismic event. A lesson in the art of staging an explosive live dance performance.

Above: the storm on Saturn (colour added by Nasa) marked by the red strip at the top of the planet
A gigantic storm erupted on Saturn, leading to a peculiar "burp" of ethylene gas in its atmosphere.
Saturn is a gas giant, and aside from a small core of iron, rock and nickel is made up mostly of layers of metallic and liquid gas, as well as an outer gaseous atmosphere.
Typically this outer atmosphere is very stable, but in rare instances can play host to violent storms.
These storms typically only happen once every 30 Earth years - or one year on Saturn - but researchers now say that a storm first detected in 2010 was "unprecedented" in its scale and violence.
Were it located on Earth, the storm would have encompassed all of North America from north to south, and would have wrapped around our planet's circumference many times over.
Starting in 2010, Nasa and the European Space Agency's Cassini spacecraft tracked the storm as it raged in the planet's atmosphere. It was the first storm of its kind to be witnessed by a spacecraft in orbit around the planet, a fact that allowed scientists a unique picture of the tempest below.
Cassini's composite infrared spectrometer (CIRS) instrument showed that "powerful discharge" from the storm sent temperatures 150 degrees Fahrenheit above normal.
A huge increase in the amount of ethylene gas in the atmosphere was also detected, back on Earth.
The strange appearance of this gas - and the giant storm which created it, is described in the November 20 issue of Astrophysical Journal.
"This temperature spike is so extreme it's almost unbelievable, especially in this part of Saturn's atmosphere, which typically is very stable," said Brigette Hesman, the study's lead author and a University of Maryland scientist.
The study added it was the "largest and hottest stratospheric vortex" ever seen in our Solar System - bigger than the Red Spot on Jupiter.

Cadiz Drive-In
48471 Cadiz-Harrisville Road,
1 person favorited this theater
Showing 7 comments
One thing to add is that it reopened in 1986 as the Gabletown Drive-In and closed in 1987 for good.
Uploaded some movie ads
Uploaded Goggle Earth 2011 View
There is no mention of the "uptown" theatre that once was..it was certainly there for many years, including the first run of Gone With The Wind…I was able to catch it there in the early 60's on re-run…it was gutted to become a storage area and indoor parking lot in the late 70's. Originally part of the Custer Hotel complex in Cadiz.
The Cadiz Drive In Theatre was a gas,I remember it, but of course it was only operational during favorable weather(not the snow season)
It was called the Cadiz Drive-in Theatre in 1956 parking 300 cars and at that time owned by Corp.Theatre Service Corp.
Go to the Map and see all of the autos waiting for the movie to start!
Open ~1955-~1987 or ~1988? Can anyone verify the exact dates?
Held 225-300 cars.
Need more info and more photos.
There are pictures of what once remained of this drive-in on its page at Drive-ins.com: http://www.drive-ins.com/gallery/ohtcadi. Apparently it was also known as the Cadiz Drive-in.

Who do you think Kyoko will end up with? Like alot of people, I'd LOVE for her to be with Ren, but I can't help but feel that after 10 or so more volumes of beating around the bush she'll just end up with Sho. I mean, it IS a shoujo manga. What do you guys think?

I think it might be Ren, just because he is the one who has had such an effect on her, and is the most often seen love interest.
But knowing shoujo manga, it could easily flip to her being with Sho. After all, he was introduced first.

I think she'll end up with Ren because of the whole past secret friendship part of their relationship. By also having a past (strong) friendship with happy-enthusiastic-naive Kyoko, Ren is up to the same basis as Sho. Also, Nakamura seems to be building up a big angsty past for Ren, further pushing me to believe that she'll and up with him.
However, that's not to say they won't further develop Sho's character and change my opinion. But for now, I think she'll and up with Ren.

I think it'll [b]definitely[\b] be Ren just 'cause he is the male lead in most descriptions. And the fact that he shows up a helluva lot more often than Sho.
Despite my love for Sho (the romance parts always seem to move when he's around...), Kyoko'll be with Ren...preferably after a showdown between them. xD

it'll all depend. i want to say ren but seeing that in the last series she wrote, she had the uncle obsessed with the girl, so i don't know for sure.
although, i think i speak for almost everyone when i say that i think we would murder her if she made kyoko and ren related.

For sure.. I mean I start reading Skip Beat since nearly 5 years ago (and at that time there were already like 18/19 volumes translated I guess), rereading it a few times a year, and continue to pray and pray for the miracle of Ren X Kyouko. I will feel betray if they did not end up together! I might even make a petition for the ending to be changed if they did not make it (So what if I'm Ren fanatic... Banzai REN!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for me, I'm definitely rooting for Ren. However, after reading the series for a second time, I find that there is a certain feeling of freedom between Kyoko and Sho. I really love that and I'm actaully liking Sho a bit more. He definitely makes things interesting. The only thing I find frustrating is that there are always misunderstandings between Kyoko and Ren. I get that the story needs those misunderstandings to a certain extent, but it'd be nice to see them interact playfully while on the same level for once. To me at least, their relationship needs those joyful moments as well. Oh, and Beagle boy should come into play a little bit more.... He adds that certain supernatural zing that is pleasant when used tastefully.
As for the comment that said she may end up with Sho since he was introduced first (sorry, I don't mean to be rude. I'm just on my phone and can't scroll back to see your name), I disagree with you. I don't really feel that Skip Beat is a typical shoujo. There's a certain air about it that seperates it from the cliches of the whole genre of shoujo. Kyoko is one of those heroines that really stick out. The author, I think Nakamura is the name, has done an excellent job of showing the character developments throughout the story. I find that I'm actually interested in what's going on as opposed to just reading the story to see the guy and girl get together in the end. But, those moments when Ren flashes that "King of the Night" look certainly don't hurt
Anyhoo, I root for Ren but still want more from the relationship between them than just romantic tension and dramatic past events coming into the light. Ren needs to show a bit more confidence! So to answer your question, I think/hope she'll end up with Ren. I think that the author's building up the relationship between Kyoko and Ren with the latest chapters. And it helps that the President is totally in on the whole thing between them. I also agree that it's not going to happen until Ren and Sho have a HUGE duel and Kyoko realizes that each one has developed feelings for her in such a blunt way that she has to finally make the choice.

Ill be really disappointed if she ends up with the waste of life commonly referred to as sho. He is a pompous annoyance with the mentality of a five year old, and no respect for women. There are love rivals, in other stories, who attempt to rape the protagonist that I approve of more than that pathetic scum. Tbh I hope he dies in the series.
Of the ones remaining, I'd say ren is the best fit.

I feel that Sho is just there for humor and to push the romance by acting as a third party, similarly to the reino guy. The current arc now just affirms that nakamura is intending to pair kyoko up with ren. she is making kyoko heal ren from his past & then they'll move forward with kyoko learning more about ren to eventually fall in love with him. well unless she comes up with another arc on sho, i doubt kyoko will end up with sho.

If we are talking about male partner here for the heroine. I 100% agree that Kyoko will definitely end up with Ren because the author has been developing their relationship since the start of the story. I've re-read Skip beat for 5x now and all I can see is that Ren's character has been developed more with his painful past, his relationship with his parents and his love for kyoko compare to his rival sho w/c is so under develop and the only purpose is to add spice on kyoko and ren's love story.

Skip Beat is not like any typical shojo where the heroine ends up with the rough guy like hot gimmick or fruits basket. The reason why this is one of the finest manga out there is because nakamura yoshiki make her main leads 3 dimensionals so I think she will give Kyoko Ren because the author is developing both their characters as the story continues in the end.

McGorty wins 122nd District seat
Updated 10:56 pm, Tuesday, July 22, 2014
The 122nd District win goes to the GOP.
With 76 percent of the vote in Shelton and Stratford, Republicans kept the state House seat with the election of Ben McGorty to the post left vacant by veteran state Rep. Larry Miller, of Stratford, who died May 31.
The unofficial results in Trumbull, which makes up a small portion of the district, were not available Tuesday night, but would not affect the outcome.
But McGorty prevailed with 1,014 votes to Democrat Arlene Liscinsky's 337 in their home base of Shelton. Only 11 percent of voters turned out.
In Stratford, McGorty had 272 votes. Liscinsky had 65. The turnout there was even lower, at 9.4 percent.
McGorty will now serve until the General Assembly reconvenes in January. Because the term expires this year and the Legislature is not in session, it's possible he will never act on official business, other than being sworn into office.
But he's hoping to make sure that isn't the case with a victory in next month's primary, where he will face Mike Vickerelli, of Stratford.
"I get sworn in Friday and then I have to start campaigning for the primary on Aug. 12," said McGorty, a real estate agent.
The odd-shaped 122nd district includes a large swath of Shelton, including much of the Huntington, White Hills and Pine Rock Park sections; the part of Stratford north of the Merritt Parkway including Oronoque Village; and a small slice of eastern Trumbull. Miller, a Republican, represented the 122nd District since 1991.
McGorty, 50, a volunteer with the Shelton Fire Department and fire commissioner, said the victory made him feel more confident going into the primary next month.
"It's three weeks away," he said. "People aren't going to change their minds. Still, I'll be knocking on doors until November."
Meanwhile, Democrat Lainie McHugh prevailed over Republican Bill Haberlin in Trumbull's townwide Board of Finance election.
Republican Town Committee Chairman Paul Lavoie said he was surprised by McHugh's win considering the wide margin by which Republicans won in November's town-wide elections for first selectman, Town Council and various boards.
"Lainie did a very good job in getting her supporters to turn out in the middle of July," he said.
Tom Kelly, Democratic Town Committee chairman, said the win validated the lawsuit he and Town Council member Vicki Tesoro filed against the town in order to get the special election. The town had previously turned down the pair's petition for the election, claiming they were a day late.
"It's a big night for Trumbull Democrats," Kelly said.

Asigra's Recovery License Model: Fair Backup & Recovery Pricing
Backup costs are growing just as fast as data. Even though most companies recover only 10% of their data annually, they are paying for 100% recovery. Asigra has responded to this by aligning its licensing model with the true value derived from data backups – that of data recoveries. The new Asigra Recovery License Model ® (RLM) separates the cost of backup from the cost of recovery, drastically reducing the cost of data protection. Watch this video to learn how RLM provides organizations with immediate cost savings of up to 40%, as well as more cost predictability and control as your data continues to grow. This video also highlights Asigra's Recovery Tracker™,a powerful recovery analytics engine that empowers storage and backup admins to better understand their organization's recovery processes and trends.

I'm developing a plugin for a program that is mostly java based, and I'd like to implement a scripting language for this program, possibly using javascript or some other simple scripting language. My question is... are there any libraries out there to like... evaluate the script and run it in java? Not sure if I'm explaining this right. Essentially I want to be able to run the script from Java, then allow the script to call Java functions that already exist in this program. How would I go about doing this? Or would it be easier to have them actually write pieces of a java class then use a class loader to load it in?
