wow, that was different
i have to say, i felt this one had a lot more depth than the previous ones, which were mostly optimistic and cheery. The serious themes in this one were really touching, and the ending was pretty fuckin sad and a huge cliffhanger. I have to admit, this is the first of the series that has left me waiting for the next part.
review 60 !!!
rocks !!!
Different, but that's not a bad thing
This one has a very different feel from the previous three. But having watched those, then watching this, you can't help but empathize and FEEL for the characters.
Good stuff. Just . . . wow.
For the love of god and all that is holy, don't ever stop animating. Can't wait for Step 5 . . .
Great turn.
It was a great turn for the series. It was really sad but it adds such a great element to the story. Wonderful work, truly.
The tone was set a lot different from what we're all used to, which was a nice change.
But I would've wished that the motion tweens were used less. Although it gave a different look to the movie, it was evident that at the end of the day, you just wanted to be done with it. I hope this review, or that assumtion (sp?) doesn't stop you from making the final episode.
Good luck guys! (Current score : 4.63 =3)

Time-varying discrete monetary policy reaction functions
A novel dynamic ordered probit model with time-varying parameters is proposed to estimate a monetary policy reaction function with narrative-based monetary indicators. The estimation and inference are carried out using the Bayesian simulation-based approach. Empirically, these are the following findings. First, there is strong evidence in support that the Central Bank in Taiwan responds counter-cyclically to inflation but weaker, if any, evidence to economic growth. Secondly, the persistence and consistence in policy-making of the monetary authority is confirmed by the significance of the positive autoregressive coefficient. Although not all, the estimates of the TVP-DOP model provide, at least, partial support of time-varying parameters. Finally, the results indicate that studies of the discrete monetary policy reaction functions without explicitly considering the possible dynamics inherent in the time series data and time-variations in model parameters may be inappropriate, if not incorrect.

The Beowulf Trilogy
In submission
Stephan Grundy's Beowulf Trilogy (Young Beowulf, Beowulf the Hero, and Beowulf the King) is a follow-up to his acclaimed novels of Germanic legend, Rhinegold and Attila's Treasure. Like the previous two, his rendition of Beowulf is his own translation from original texts worked into a modern novelization, placed in the historical setting of those characters in it who can be proven to (or are thought likely to) have existed. While Beowulf himself is a figure of myth, the archetypal "Bear's Son" (who appears, in various forms, throughout Germanic legends and tales from the oldest pre-Christian myths to the fairy stories collected by the Brothers Grimm), Beowulf's king Hygelac and the Yngling kings Onela, Eanmund, and Eadgils are all historical figures, Hygelac's ill-fated raid on the Franks being particularly well-documented in Continental sources of the time. Grundy has, accordingly, filled out the brief references to battles and political conflicts in the poem Beowulf with more detail from Ynglinga saga and Hrólfs saga kraka, both of which deal with the same characters and many of the same events. He has also put the events described in the poem into chronological order, whereas in the original most of them are recounted as background to the dragon-slaying and an explanation of the Geats' desperate military and political situation at the end of the poem. Grundy's chief additions, however, come in regards to the two aspects of life which appear only sketchily in the original Beowulf: the role of women and the influence of the native religion of the North. The position of women as advisors, managers, and co-rulers is hinted at briefly through the figure of Wealhtheow in the original, but has little impact on what is, fundamentally, a tale of heroic deeds. By emphasizing not only Wealhtheow, but the women who are influential both in Beowulf's personal life (almost completely absent in the original) and in Scandinavian

Bringing Up Baby (Howard Hawks, 1938)Posted on the 29 June 2011 by Jake Cole @notjustmovies
Some of the first lines of the film are pure innuendo, showing Grant's David Huxley, framed in an unflattering, goofy Thinker pose trying to figure out where a brontosaurus bone goes and telling his fiancé "I think this one must belong in the tail." "Nonsense," she says, "you tried it in the tail yesterday." This sets the ball rolling on a flagrantly sexual movie that inverts gender roles, making Grant the creepily stalked object of affection of Katharine Hepburn, who flashes into the movie like a firecracker and only gets more spectacular from there. While David is out playing golf to woo a potential museum investor, Hepburn's Susan walks up and plays his ball. Then, she drives off in his car, dragging him along on the running boards. Take a deep breath, this is as calm as the film gets.
Grant had already established his comic persona that would serve him well for the remainder of his career, but he still plays entirely against type here. He's so good at being clumsy, using his acrobatic talents for the first time in film in service to magnificent pratfalls, that it's easy to forget that this is Cary Grant, sexiest man who ever lived and a powerhouse leading man. He submits entirely to Hepburn, who has never seemed more masculine despite the absence of her usual suits. Hepburn is the aggressor, sizing up the bumbling paleontologist and seeing that beneath his obscuring spectacles and stick-up-his-ass gait, he is indeed Cary Grant. Naturally, she'd like a piece of that, so she begins contriving wilder and wilder reasons to keep David from his wedding to the frigidly, ironically named Miss Swallow (who almost certainly has no idea what her surname references and would be appalled if she did).
The titular Baby of the film is not, as one might have guessed, a human child but a tame leopard Susan's brother sent back from Brazil for their aunt, the same patron considering the donation to David's museum. Before long, the whole world's gone mad, with David and Susan chasing around their leopard; another, far less agreeable one they let out of a zoo truck under the impression it's Baby; and George, Aunt Elizabeth's dog, who steals the brontosaurus bone David has with him and buries it. All the while, Susan's antics attract attention and her lies grow more and more fanciful.
Hepburn and Grant had already co-starred in two films, the even more gender-bending Sylvia Scarlett and the commercially disappointing but critically lauded Holiday, and they had another coming in 1940's The Philadelphia Story. Their familiarity each other makes for intense chemistry, even as both convince the audience they've never met before in this movie. By the same token, Hawks incorporates enough self-reflexivity—Susan using Grant's character name from The Awful Truth to identify him in an elaborate lie to the cops, the use of the star dog Asta for George—that the look of knowing on Susan's face from the moment she sets eyes on David suggests she has some of her actor's awareness. As fast as the film moves, the actors needed that past working relationship to let them feel so believably attracted. It's difficult to describe how the movie builds their romance even as it never flags, something the film itself points out when David says, "It isn't that I don't like you, Susan, because after all, in moments of quiet, I'm strangely drawn toward you. But, well, there haven't been any quiet moments."
Not quite as fast-paced as Hawks' own His Girl Friday, Bringing Up Baby nevertheless feels the most breakneck of the screwballs even as it is also one of the most carefully composed. Obviously, it takes skill to move at this speed, but that wouldn't automatically make it good: think of all those showboating heavy metal guitarists who wow everyone by playing arpeggios over, and over, and over. Like, yeah, great, you can do scales, now when are you gonna be a big boy and write something? Bringing Up Baby doesn't simply assume that by pushing forward it is funny. It relies on a perfect cast of loony characters* to complement Grant and Hepburn, who crucially play their roles with conviction. Hepburn purportedly did not realize the importance of this at first, overselling her lines because she was in a comedy, but Grant, by then a close friend, set her straight**. If Bringing Up Baby is a film where no one is a reasonable, sensible human being, it is also one where everyone in it likes to think himself reasonable and sensible. That, fundamentally, is why it remains one of the most enduringly funny comedies more than 70 years after its release.
*My favorite side player is Walter Catlett's Constable Slocum, a bumbling sheriff so forgetful he finds himself in pleasant chats with those he seeks to arrest, only to snap back to reality and explode in rage at having been "duped" into treating the perps with pleasantries.
**For a far more thorough account of Hepburn's on-set evolution, read this piece by Sheila O'Malley.

Feds target gangs in crackdown, 357 arrested in 2 weeks, 2,388 in past year
Member Submission
The Bloods, Crips, Disciples and an increasingly popular street gang known as MS-13 were among the gangs targeted in a Department of Homeland Security operation over the past two weeks that yielded 375 arrests of wanted members in 23 states, the department announced Friday.
What makes Operation Community Shield different from other crackdowns is that federal authorities for the first time are using immigration and customs authorities in an attempt to dismantle what they call "transnational, violent street gangs," according to DHS.
DHS launched the operation last year after immigration officials dubbed the street gang Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, as "one of the largest and most violent street gangs in the country."

Overview Chapter 2 – Data Collection… Key Definitions
Level of Measurement Time Series vs. Cross-Sectional Data Sampling Concepts Sampling Methods Data Sources Survey Research
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Data is the plural form of the Latin datum (a "given" fact). In scientific research, data arise from experiments whose results are recorded systematically. In business, data usually arise from accounting transactions or management processes. Important decisions may depend on data. We will refer to Data as plural and data set as a particular collection of data as a whole. Observation – each data value. Subject (or individual) – an item for study (e.g., an employee in your company). Variable – a characteristic about the subject or individual (e.g., employee's income).
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Three types of data sets: Data Set Variables Typical Tasks Univariate One Histograms, descriptive statistics, frequency tallies, estimation, hypothesis testing Bivariate Two Scatter plots, correlations, simple regression Multivariate More than two Multiple regression, data mining, econometric modeling
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Consider the multivariate data set with 5 variables 8 subjects 5 x 8 = 40 observations Multivariate data sets can become quite large.
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
A data set may have a mixture of data types. Types of Data Attribute (qualitative) Numerical (quantitative) Verbal Label X = economics (your major) Coded X = 3 (i.e., economics) Discrete X = 2 (your siblings) Continuous X = 3.15 (your GPA)
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Attribute Data: Also called categorical, nominal or qualitative data. Values are described by words rather than numbers. For example, - Automobile style (e.g., X = full, midsize, compact, subcompact). - Mutual fund (e.g., X = load, no-load). Data Coding: Coding refers to using numbers to represent categories to facilitate statistical analysis. (We need numerical representations to perform the math.) Coding an attribute as a number does not make the data numerical. For example, 1 = Bachelor's, 2 = Master's, 3 = Doctorate Rankings may exist (consider the above example)
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Binary Data – An Important Class of Attribute Data: A binary variable has only two values, 1 = presence, 0 = absence of a characteristic of interest (codes themselves are arbitrary). For example, 1 = employed, 0 = not employed 1 = married, 0 = not married 1 = male, 0 = female 1 = female, 0 = male The coding itself has no numerical value so binary variables are attribute data.
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Numerical Data – Numerical or quantitative data arise from counting, measurement or some kind of mathematical operation. For example, Number of auto insurance claims filed in March. Length of time between customer arrivals on a webpage. Ratio of profit to sales for last quarter. Can be broken down into two types – discrete or continuous data.
Chapter 2 – Key Definitions
Discrete Data – A numerical variable with a countable number of values that can be represented by an integer (no fractional values). For example, Number of Medicaid patients (e.g., X = 2). Number of takeoffs at O'Hare (e.g., X = 37). Continuous Data – A numerical variable that can have any value within an interval (e.g., length, weight, time, sales, price/earnings ratios). Any continuous interval contains infinitely many possible values (e.g., 426 < X < 428).
Clickers What type of data (attribute, discrete
numerical, or continuous numerical) is your GPA? A = attribute B = discrete numerical C = continuous numerical
Clickers What type of data (attribute, discrete
numerical, or continuous numerical) is the occupation of a mortgage applicant? A = attribute B = discrete numerical C = continuous numerical
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
There are four levels of measurement for data: Level of Measurement Characteristics Example Nominal Categories only Eye color (blue, brown, green, hazel) Ordinal Rank has meaning Bond ratings (Aaa, Aab, C, D, F, etc.) Interval Distance has meaning Temperature (57o Celsius) Ratio Meaningful zero exists Accounts payable ($21.7 million)
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Nominal Measurement – Nominal data merely identify a category. Nominal data are qualitative, attribute, categorical or classification data (e.g., Apple, Compaq, Dell, HP). Nominal data are usually coded numerically, codes are arbitrary (e.g., 1 = Apple, 2 = Compaq, 3 = Dell, 4 = HP). Only mathematical operations are counting (e.g., frequencies) and simple statistics. Ordinal Measurement – Ordinal data codes can be ranked (e.g., 1 = Frequently, 2 = Sometimes, 3 = Rarely, 4 = Never). Distance between codes is not meaningful (e.g., distance between 1 and 2, or between 2 and 3, or between 3 and 4 lacks meaning). Many useful statistical tests exist for ordinal data. Especially useful in social science, marketing and human resource research.
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Interval Measurement – Data can not only be ranked, but also have meaningful intervals between scale points (e.g., difference between 60F and 70F is same as difference between 20F and 30F). Since intervals between numbers represent distances, mathematical operations can be performed (e.g., average). Zero point of interval scales is arbitrary, so ratios are not meaningful (e.g., 60F is not twice as warm as 30F).
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Likert Scales – A special case of interval (?) data frequently used in survey research. The coarseness of a Likert scale refers to the number of scale points (typically 5 or 7). A neutral midpoint ("Neither Agree Nor Disagree") is allowed if an odd number of scale points is used or omitted to force the respondent to "lean" one way or the other. Likert data are coded numerically (e.g., 1 to 5) but any equally spaced values will work. Careful choice of verbal anchors results in measurable intervals (e.g., the distance from 1 to 2 is "the same" as the interval, say, from 3 to 4). Ratios are not meaningful (e.g., here 4 is not twice 2). Many statistical calculations can be performed (e.g., averages, correlations, etc.).
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Likert Scales – Example Two variants of Likert scales… How would you rate your marketing instructor? (check one) Terrible Poor Adequate Good Excellent How would you rate your marketing instructor? (check one) Very Bad Very Good
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Ratio Measurement – Ratio data have all properties of nominal, ordinal and interval data types and also possess a meaningful zero (absence of quantity being measured). Because of this zero point, ratios of data values are meaningful (e.g., $20 million profit is twice as much as $10 million). Zero does not have to be observable in the data, it is an absolute reference point. Changing Data by Recoding – In order to simplify data or when exact data magnitude is of little interest, ratio data can be recoded downward into ordinal or nominal measurements (but not conversely). For example, recode systolic blood pressure as "normal" (under 130), "elevated" (130 to 140), or "high" (over 140). The above recoded data are ordinal (ranking is preserved) but intervals are unequal and some information is lost.
Chapter 2 – Level of Measurement
Use the following procedure to recognize data types: Question If "Yes" Q1. Is there a meaningful zero point? Ratio data (all statistical operations are allowed) Q2. Are intervals between scale points meaningful? Interval data (common statistics allowed, e.g., means and standard deviations) Q3. Do scale points represent rankings? Ordinal data (restricted to certain types of nonparametric statistical tests) Q4. Are there discrete categories? Nominal data (only counting allowed, e.g. finding the mode)
Clickers Which type of data (nominal, ordinal,
interval, or ratio) is the pay of employees in the Wal-Mart store in Hutchinson Kansas? A = nominal B = ordinal C = interval D = ratio
Chapter 2 – Time Series & Cross-Sectional Data
Time Series Data – Each observation in the sample represents a different equally spaced point in time (e.g., years, months, days). Periodicity may be annual, quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily, hourly, etc. We are interested in trends and patterns over time (e.g., annual growth in consumer debit card use from 1999 to 2006). Cross-sectional Data – Each observation represents a different individual unit (e.g., person) at the same point in time (e.g., monthly VISA balances). We are interested in variation among observations or in relationships. We can combine the two data types to get pooled cross-sectional and time series data.
Clickers Which type of data (time series or cross-
sectional) is Mexico's GDP for the last 10 quarters? A = time series B = cross-sectional
Chapter 2 – Sampling Concepts
Sample or Census? A sample involves looking only at some items selected from the population. A census is an examination of all items in a defined population. Why collect a sample rather than complete a census?
Chapter 2 – Sampling Concepts
Situations Where A Sample May Be Preferred: Infinite Population – Destructive Testing Timely Results – Cost Accuracy – Sensitive Information Situations Where A Census May Be Preferred: Small Population – Large Sample Size Database Exists – Legal Requirements
Chapter 2 – Sampling Concepts
Parameters and Statistics: Parameters – Any measurement that describes an entire population. Usually, the parameter value is unknown since we rarely can observe the entire population. Parameters are often (but not always) represented by Greek letters. Statistics – Any measurement computed from a sample. Usually, the statistic is regarded as an estimate of a population parameter. Sample statistics are often (but not always) represented by Roman letters. Sample (Size = n): Statistics are computed and estimate parameters e.g., = sample mean, S = sample std. dev. Population (Size = N): Characterized by Parameters e.g., m = pop. Mean, s = pop. Std. dev.
Chapter 2 – Sampling Concepts
Population – The population must be carefully specified and the sample must be drawn scientifically so that the sample is representative. Target Population: The target population is the population we are interested in (e.g., U.S. gasoline prices). The sampling frame is the group from which we take the sample (e.g., 115,000 stations). The frame should not differ from the target population. Finite or Infinite? A population is finite if it has a definite size, even if its size is unknown. A population is infinite if it is of arbitrarily large size. Rule of Thumb: A population may be treated as infinite when N is at least 20 times n (i.e., when N/n > 20).
Chapter 2 – Sampling Methods
Probability Samples: Simple Random Sample – Use random numbers to select items from a list (e.g., VISA cardholders). Systematic Sample – Select every kth item from a list or sequence (e.g., restaurant customers). Stratified Sample – Select randomly within defined strata (e.g., by age, occupation, gender). Cluster Sample – Like stratified sampling except strata are geographical areas (e.g., zip codes). Nonprobability Samples: Judgment Sample – Use expert knowledge to choose "typical" items (e.g., which employees to interview). Convenience Sample – Use a sample that happens to be available (e.g., ask co-worker opinions at lunch).
Chapter 2 – Sampling Methods
Simple Random Sample: Every item in the population of N items has the same chance of being chosen in the sample of n items. Clicker Example…. On your clicker, select either A, B, C, or D "at random". Collect and look at the results. Discuss whether these results look random.
Chapter 2 – Sampling Methods
With or Without Replacement: If we allow duplicates when sampling, then we are sampling with replacement. Duplicates are unlikely when n is much smaller than N. If we do not allow duplicates when sampling, then we are sampling without replacement. Sample Size: Sample size depends on the inherent variability of the quantity being measured and on the desired precision of the estimate.
Clickers Suppose you want to know the ages of
moviegoers who attend Juno. What kind of sample is it if you survey the first 20 people who emerge from the theater? A = simple random sample B = systematic sample C = stratified sample D = convenience sample
Chapter 2 – Data Sources Useful Data Sources: Type of Data Examples
U.S. general data Statistical Abstract of the U.S. U.S. economic data Economic Report of the President Almanacs World Almanac, Time Almanac Periodicals Economist, Business Week, Fortune Indexes New York Times, Wall Street Journal Databases CompuStat, Citibase, U.S. Census World data CIA World Factbook Web Google, Yahoo, msn In many instances, you will collect data specific to a specific question of interest through research or survey.
Chapter 2 – Survey Research
Basic Steps of Survey Research: Step 1: State the goals of the research Step 2: Develop the budget (time, money, staff) Step 3: Create a research design (target population, frame, sample size) Step 4: Choose a survey type and method of administration Step 5: Design a data collection instrument (questionnaire) Step 6: Pretest the survey instrument and revise as needed Step 7: Administer the survey (follow up if needed) Step 8: Code the data and analyze it
Chapter 2 – Survey Research
Survey Types (You should acquaint yourselves with the characteristics of each – Table 2.12). Mail Telephone Interviews Web Direct Observation
Chapter 2 – Survey Research
Survey Guidelines: Plan – What is the purpose of the survey? Consider staff expertise, needed skills, degree of precision, budget. Design – Invest time and money in designing the survey. Use books and references to avoid unnecessary errors. Quality – Take care in preparing a quality survey so that people will take you seriously. Pilot Test – Pretest on friends or co-workers to make sure the survey is clear. Buy-in – Improve response rates by stating the purpose of the survey, offering a token of appreciation or paving the way with endorsements. Expertise – Work with a consultant early on.

Small pupa on thyme
Observed: 11th May 2013 By: Tieflyer
Added: 11th May 2013
I found this small pupa wrapped in the leaves of a thyme plant in my garden. I'm going to keep it to see what emerges but wondered if anyone can identify it from the photos. As you can see from one of the photos it's 8mm long.
Other observations of Pyrausta aurata
Species with which Pyrausta aurata interacts
Pyrausta aurata
famous last words, I know, but what the heck, let's see what emerges
A parasitic wasp?
That's what normally comes out when you are really keen to see what moth it is.
opposite problem
usually I'm disappointed for the moth to emerge when I'd really like the parasitic wasp.
I probably would be but I can only get the wasps identified if I know the ID of the host.
Just because I lack the literature (or skill) to do them myself so need to ask someone else to do them and that is the condition for them IDing things.
Small pupa on thyme
24 May 2013 - 11:02pm Tieflyer
I got back from holiday today and checked on the pupa which I'd left in a container in the green house and it had emerged and it was a Light-brown Apple Moth.
Add the ID
Can I suggest you create a revision to add the ID (and possibly add some pictures of the adult moth as well).

Amitabh-Ramu friendship is over
The debacle of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag seems to have made these combo lost trust in each other. Adding more salt to the wounds, Sarkar Raj, the sequel to their hit film Sarkar, failed terribly at the box office. Following these turns of events, Ramu has decided to drop the idea of making another sequel to Sarkar.
It was earlier reported that Ramu would let Aishwarya Bachchan take over the mantle of running the family along with Amitabh in the next sequel. But now, it's history, as the director has decided to scrub the project.
Ramu said that his relationship with the Bachchan family is still close but admitted that he is keeping a distance from them professionally. He revealed that his screen relationship with the Bachchan family is over for the moment.
Well, there seems to be a little ray of hope to Ramu-Amitabh friendship, as their controversial film Rann could work magic to their relationship. Watch out!

And all the calculation sheets plop neatly right into a report appendix. Same with calculations of section properties or that infernal ASD biaxial bending formula. It takes a while to set up, but after the first set-up, I can put out a dozen calculation sheets (say two vessels with six or 8 nozzles each) in about the same time as one. It's also a good idea to name your variables, so the formulas look like actual formulas identified. You can print out the formulas for anyone who wants to audit the worksheet, and it's a lot easier to follow.

You actually can help find #370
NYMagazine ran an article this morning about how Courtney Love has joined the search for Malaysian Flight #370. When I saw the headline I rolled my eyes. Then when I saw this picture she posted, I laughed:
After reading the article I realized her heart is not only in the right place, but there's an actual website set up where you can sign in and be assigned a search area (via satellite).
There's something wonderful about learning a lesson in humanity from Courtney Love. It's a good morning!

Buy custom Prohibition essay
The Eighteenth Amendment came into force in January 17, 1920 (Kyvig, 198). The Amendment was enacted to prohibit the sale of alcohol. Proponents of the law argued that prohibition was designed to eliminate the liquor business and more so the taverns. Hence, the more reason the Anti-Saloon league fronted the law (Burnham, 210).
Kyvig argues that prohibition fell short of the expectations of most Americans (207). The amendment meant to be a success because it was part of the constitution and not a statute. While it barred manufacturing, transportation, selling, importing or exporting of alcohol, the law never addressed the use and purchase of liquor. This feature then never considered consumers and purchasers of alcohol offenders since using and purchasing alcohol was never criminalized (Kyvig, 199). In effect, users were encouraged and provided with support for their actions by this feature.
To support failure of prohibition, Kyvig argues that the increased number of prosecutions occasioned by those breaking the law, is a sign that it was not favorable (204). This fact illustrates that the citizens were against banning alcohol use since the number of people prosecuted increased each year.
Although, Burnham is of the opinion that prohibition was a success, there is enough evidence though to suggest that this is not true. The number of new people using alcohol rose and reportedly 'everyone' was said to be drinking, and in particular, the upper class of the population (Burnham 214). In consideration of that fact that most respected people in the country were disregarding the amendment, then how could the nation be governed by a law the citizens hate? A prove that the law was very unpopular.
In conclusion, the Eighteenth Amendment was repealed about seventy years ago. This is enough evidence to prove that prohibition was just an experiment that could not work. Although prohibition brought down consumption of alcoholic drinks down, the main goal of eliminating alcohol was not achieved. For this reason, prohibition qualifies to be a failed experiment.

Probius, the Curious Probe, is a ranged specialist hero from the StarCraft universe. Since his activation, Probius has always wanted to prove himself. He may be small, but he made a big difference by warping in a critical pylon during the retaking of Aiur. As the bravest of probes, Probius is eager to fulfill his purpose in the Nexus.
Background[edit | edit source]This section concerns content exclusive to the StarCraft universe.
Originally designed by the Khalai caste to lay the foundation for protoss settlements, probes are robotic drones that service the Nexus and gather the numerous resources needed to power protoss technologies. Probes also manufacture and plant the micro-beacons that anchor the teleport matrices of structures. These beacons allow the protoss to warp-in prefabricated structures from their homeworld. Often probes are used as rudimentary spies, sent ahead to survey the potential locations of enemy encampments.
Abilities[edit | edit source]
Talents[edit | edit source]
❢ Reward: After hitting 10 Heroes with Warp Rift explosions, increase the explosion damage by 100.
❢ Reward: After hitting 20 Heroes with Warp Rift explosions, Warp Rift gains 1 additional charge.
❢ Reward: After collecting 70 Minerals, Photon Cannons deal 25% more damage, can see over obstacles, and reveal nearby Cloaked units.
Increase the size of Pylon power fields and allow them to attack enemies within it for 110 (+4% per level) damage per second. Lasts 10 seconds.
Passive: Pylons gain permanent Shields equal to 50% of their max Health.
Vector Targeting. Project a barrier of negative energy in the target direction that lasts 4 seconds. Enemies who touch the barrier take 64 (+4% per level) damage per second and are slowed by 80% for as long as they remain in contact with it.
Additional Pulses do not benefit from Echo Pulse or Particle Accelerator.

Flu cases almost tripled last week in England and Wales as this year's outbreak strengthened its grip.
The number of cases rose from 32.8 to 87.1 per 100,000 of the population, well above last winter's peak. The rates are highest among school children, according to the Royal College of GPs surveillance unit in Birmingham, which collects figures from 69 surgeries across the country.
Cases are concentrated in the south and central regions with lower rates in the north. Most cases are H1N1 swine flu but two other strains – H3N2 and Type B – are also circulating. The Department of Health released figures on Tuesday showing there were 302 people in intensive care with flu, 70 per cent above last winter's peak, and 17 had died.
The high numbers in intensive care puzzled specialists because there appeared to be little flu spreading in the community. Now its spread is accelerating, according to the RCGP figures.

New in store – Anne Cook Vintique jewelry
Marin based Anne Cook has added her intricate earring pieces to our Noe Valley store. All the earrings are made from vintage jewelry and Mother of Pearl game pieces.
Made for the British aristocracy in Hong Kong during the 18th and 19th centuries, these beautifully crafted game pieces are delicate, one of a kind treasures. Many feature "lace-like" cut-outs and exquisite hairline engravings. Motifs include floral delicate lattice patterns and some fully illustrated scenes from daily life at the time of the Imperial Ching Dynasty. Both exotic and elegant, these pieces are fashioned from "Dinner Plate" mollusks, that have now been extinct for over 100 years.

Mietpreise und Lebensqualität: Ist das Wohnen in Ostdeutschland wirklich günstig?
The rent levels between East- and Westgermany differ less than one Euro on average. This difference seems very slow regarding the persistant economic disparities and high vacancy rates in East-Germany. Based on the assumtion, that income and life quality aspects have an impact on the local rent level a set of variables is regressed on the rent of several housing quality segments in a cross-section analysis at the community-level. The regression contains demographic, economic and housing-market-related variables and a dummy variable for east germany. It incorporates hypotheses about a special supplier structure and several market interventions that are related to the transformation process from socialistic into market economic structures after the reunification in the 1990s. The results show a significant positive coeficiant for the east german dummy in two segments of the housing stock. Further Research about the reasons for the extra charge are important, because theese findings may be responsible for the continous out migration from East Germany.

The NYPD began using horse-drawn police wagons in the later part of the 19th Century to move police forces from place to place. Motorized wagons came into use later, and it wasn't until the 1920s and 30s that the department began regularly using motorized patrol cars. Plymouth two-door radio cars were the standard in the late 1930s and 1940s. By the 1970s, the Plymouth Fury was the mainstay. Black-and-white photos courtesy of the New York City Police Museum.

Law enforcement agencies such as the Boise (Idaho) Police Department have opted for Chrysler's 2011 Dodge Charger Pursuit as their new patrol car to replace the Crown Vic being phased out by Ford this year. Rather than introduce a new model, Chrysler opted to upgrade its existing Charger. For the 2011 model year, Chrysler added a Pentastar V-6 engine option and added electronic stability control to the suspension for better handling during higher-speed pursuits.

15-7 Types of Teams
15-8 Self-Managed Teams An employee team which has the responsibility and autonomy to complete identifiable pieces of work Includes employees with several skills and functions. Team has access to resources Sales, costs and budget information Supplies Machinery Is empowered with decision making authority
15-9 Self-Managed Teams Keys to effective self managed teams: Give the team enough responsibility and autonomy to be self-managing. The team's task should be complex enough to include many different steps. Select members carefully for their diversity, skills, and enthusiasm. Managers should guide and coach, not supervise. Determine training needs and be sure it is provided.
15-10 Team Characteristics Size Ideal size is thought to be 7. Variations of from 5 to 12 typically are associated with good team performance. Small teams (2-4 members) show more agreement, ask more questions. Large teams (12 or more) tend to have more disagreements.
15-11 Team Characteristics Roles of Team Members Task specialist role spend time and energy helping the team reach its goal. Socio-emotional role support team members' emotional needs. Teams need both roles to be filled to be successful in the long run. Teams with members who are mostly task specialists will tend to be unsatisfying and may disband. Teams where most of the individuals have social roles will have high satisfaction but may be low in productivity. Some team members play dual roles. These members often become team leaders.

15-16 Team Cohesiveness Consequences Cohesive teams report high satisfaction and morale. Cohesive teams have more uniform performance because of the team's influence on members to obey norms. If team norms are good for organization, this is an advantage. If teams norms run counter to organizational goals, it becomes a disadvantage. Cohesive teams may be highly productive if they believe management is supportive to the team.
15-17 Development of Team Norms Shared guidelines for behavior which most team members follow. Norms are developed through: Shared critical events Those first behaviors which occur often set a precedent Members bring norms from other groups to the new group Norms are stated by members or decided upon by group

Capt George Fishley
Jun. 11, 1760
New Hampshire, USA
Dec. 26, 1850
Rockingham County
New Hampshire, USA
His death notice from the 28 December 1850 edition of
The Portsmouth Journal of Literature and Politics:
Dec. 26,
Capt. GEORGE FISHLEY
, aged 90 years and 6 mos. Funeral on Sunday afternoon from St. John's Church, immediately after the close of the afternoon service.
Capt. F.
was engaged, during the Revolution, in the service of his country, both upon sea and land. He has long been well-known amongst us as a firm patriot and an excellent citizen, and his death will be lamented. Thus one after another the veterans who participated in the struggle for our independence are passing away. [Mortuary Notice, Page 3]
His obituary from the 4 January 1851 edition of
The Portsmouth Journal of Literature and Politics:
We gave in our paper last week a short obituary of this venerable citizen, who died in this city on the 26th of December, in his 91st year.
Mr. Fishley
possessed to the last years of his life, most of his faculties to a remarkable degree. For many years he has on public occasions appeared conspicuously in the processions, in a cocked-hat which almost vied in years with the wearer. He was born on the 17th day of June, 1760. At the age of seventeen he entered the continental army, under
Gen. Poor
Col. Dearborn
. In the course of the three years of his service he was at the battle of Monmouth, (in which action
General Washington
commanded the American and
Sir Henry Clinton
the British forces,) at the execution of
Maj. Andre
, and in the various positions the army occupied in that time. As an instance of revolutionary service, he related that just seventy-three years ago last Tuesday, he marched with his companions in arms, several miles, in the vicinity of Valley Forge, without shoes or stockings.—After leaving the land service, he embarked in a privateer on the ocean—was captured, and held as a prisoner at Halifax.
His after life was spent mostly in trading—for many years he had command of a coaster between Portsmouth and Boston—and when by the just provision of a grateful country pensions were granted to the soldiers of the revolution, he became a recipient of that bounty, and was enabled thereby to descend in comfort to the grave.
In political feelings he was strongly Whig—so much so that when
President Polk
visited Portsmouth a few years since, he said he declined at first shaking hands with him, because he had no political sympathies with him. In 1840, when the great gathering of the Whigs of New Hampshire was made at Concord, a company of about 300 citizens went from Portsmouth. As an emblem of commerce, a miniature ship was rigged, and was drawn from our wharves to the political capital of the State. The commander of this vessel, which will long be remembered, was
Capt. Fishley
In 1843 he celebrated his birthday, the 17th of June, in the great meeting on Bunker Hill. He was among those few Revolutionary soldiers who were companions on the occasion. Incorporated in his very existence was the spirit of '76—and on all fitting occasions it was prominently visible. With him the last of our cocked hats has departed. He was an amiable man, a good citizen, and beloved by all who knew him.
He was buried from St. John's church on Tuesday last—the Portsmouth City Greys doing the last military honors to the old Patriot. [Obituary Page 2]
A funny tidbit:
It is told of
that when
were buried in 1826, and a procession was contemplated in Portsmouth, of which the Revolutionary heroes were to form a part, the committee came to
requesting him to appear. He asked who were to be there. All were named until ----- was mentioned. "What" cried the old man. "He a patriot!" Why he was a damn Hessian, and came over here to fight us for six pence a day. No s-i-r, I don't ride with such patriots as he!" And ride he did not on the solemn occasion.
George Fishley
, entered the Continental Army in 1777, under
Gen. Poor
Col. Dearborn
. He served three years and was among the men who marched near Valley Forge wearing no shoes or stockings. He was at Monmouth, the New Jersey confrontation led by
George Washington
. After the Revolution, he served aboard a privateer, was captured and imprisoned in Halifax. He later commanded a coaster shipping between Portsmouth and Boston. He was one of the few surviving veterans to attend the opening of the Bunker Hill Monument in Boston in 1843. He commanded a miniature ship that was transported from Portsmouth inland to Concord, NH. He was among the three longest-surviving Revolutionary War veterans in Portsmouth, NH. He was among hundreds of elderly New England pensioners who applied to an early veteran's relief program sponsored by the federal government in 1840. (Biography submitted by:
