Escape to the Movies: "John Carter"
Also, "The Lorax."
14 comments:
Well, I'm a big fan of the books so I'm definitely going to see it. But it's unfortunate that John Carter's character has been change in the most generic way possible. Well hopefully it'll still be a fun time at the movies. But you're right, this is a movie that could've been something special.

Looking at the early versions of some of the songs on the album for Lorax, it really does seem they wanted to have a little more bite. Especially the early version of the villain song, "Biggering", which has a darker rock opera feel to it.
Well, I've never even heard of the books...so should I see it?

I'm still gonna see it.

I'm sorry Bob. As with your opinions on the Spider-Man reboot, I have to disagree with you on this one. I saw it this afternoon with my fiancee and I loved the hell out of this movie. And this is from someone who's been almost a lifelong fan of this book series since I first read it at age 13.
As far as I was concerned, they nailed the spirit and feel of the books perfectly. I knew going in that they had to change some things around. I knew especially that the whole idea of Carter getting to Mars via astral projection would definitely not fly with today's audiences. But I didn't see that as a bad thing really. Even when I read it at 13 back in 1983 (dating myself here), it still seemed hokey.
No, I think the method of teleportation they used in this movie worked for me and made sense, especially considering how scientists would theorize teleportation would actually work. In any case, this explanation sat just fine with me.
I also understood the need to repurpose the Therns somewhat, and introduce them much sooner than when they appeared in the second book. I for one appreciated the new wrinkle they gave them. I thought their goals were faily simple to understand: they exploit the worlds they go to, sowing discord as they do so (and I guess you must have missed Matai Shang's detailing of how they do it, which seemed to me to be a subtle commentary on what's going on with our world right now. Implying the Therns already are/have been at work on Earth right now. Hmmm...) I noticed that they, like in the books, are trying to take advantage of the Martian civilization through its religion; something that doesn't really take center stage until the second book. I'm sure however that will be more directly addressed in the sequel.
As for your dig at the end of the Martians going naked in the books? Kind of an invalid argument there, as artists from John Allen St. John to Roy Krenkel to Frank Frazetta to Micheal Whelan had them walking around in loincloths or at least G-strings. Besides, I always interpreted that Burroughs' use of the word "naked" was subjective, since to 1900's sensibilites, going around barely dressed probably might as well have been naked.
Other than that, I didn't find this movie at all to be afraid of its source material. Quite the opposite, I think, as it embraced its source material and ran with it unapologetically. Everything in that movie was either exactly the way I imagined Barsoom looked when I first read the books or better...especially the flyers. The action scenes were as cool and as dynamic as the way I thought they did when Burroughs described them.
The casting was good too. I thought Taylor Kitsch was a good John Carter. I didn't mind the tweaks they made to his character. It still didn't change who he was at his core. He always has been the "honorable fighting man from Vriginia." If anything, giving him something of a tragic backstory helped delineate his character more. Even if it felt trite to you, sometimes those methods are still the best. Totalt agreement with you though about Lynn Collins as Dejah Thoris. She's now my official Sci-Fi pinup girl. Willem DaFoe's Tars Tarkas, Samantha Morton's Sola, Thomas Hayden Church's Tal Hajus, Polly Walker's Sarkoja, and James Purefoy's Kantos Kan were also standouts.
So I'm sorry Bob if you didn't like this movie. Many of the other reviews that have been coming in however have been glowing an positive. Yours is probably the most negative I've seen. But that's not bad considering if the worst is damning it with faint praise.
I think this movie's going to do well. It had a pretty decent midnight showing, and will probably do even better today and Saturday. I think at least it's going to get great word-of-mouth in the long run. As far as I'm concerned, as a longtime fan of the series, this was a dream come true.
@ Slithor
Ah, glad to see I'm not the only one who liked it.
I certainly hope it does better than the reviews seem to be implying, because I'd love to see a sequel or two.
What was the image at the end of the credits from?
I hate when you reference these things without explanation! I'm not as informed as you! T_T

I haven't read the books, and I will see it and I will enjoy the crap outta it. Gonna bring some Mars Bars.
- Elessar said...
Mildly interested in John Carter, might see it later once I don't have to deal with the dreaded CROWDS (which I only do with movies I realllllllly wanna see).
However, the reason I'm posting is to tell you that your written post is one of the best written things you've done in a LONG while. Kudos.
- Sssonic said...
@ Anonymous: That would be a teaser image for the newest upcoming "Assassin's Creed" game, which moves the series' focus out of Renaissance-era Europe and into the Frontier days of early America.
I wish Taylor Kitsch had some better material to work with theatrically. He proved himself as a good actor by his performance as Tim Riggins in Friday Night Lights (TV) and now he's been shunted into both this and Battleship (although that may be because of the Peter Berg/Friday Night Lights connection.)
- vlademir1 said...
@Sssonic My understanding was that it's set at the tail end of the Colonial Era maybe through the start of the Articles of Confederation era. The Frontier expansion didn't really get going until the Jefferson administration, though the game has been announced as having a location known as "the frontier", which is likely the largely unsettled areas between the set piece locals of Boston and New York.
Funny enough I dropped by this blog for the first time in ages just to agree with Bob's comment of anticipation for this game. I've not really been interested in the series previously, but that had a lot to do with the period it was set in making the story a little too predictable/cliche for my tastes.

John Thatcher needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 406 designs submitted by 92 freelance designers.
McKinley Reserve Media Group
Hello designers! Thanks for taking the time to assist with our logo. Before we jump into what we're looking for, a bit about our company – At McKinley Reserve Media Group, our focus is public relations, although we also do a bit of video production as well. Some of our clients include an organic honey company, a Midwest manufacturer, and one of the largest golf courses in Orange County, CA. As a Newport Beach-based company, a bit of a relaxed, go-with-the-flow, but-make-it-happen-at-all-costs attitude is what we bring to the table, and our logo should reflect that.
Business community of Southern California
Regarding our logo, we're looking for something contemporary; classic but with a modern twist. In terms of color, nothing bright or loud. Black, white, slate/grey, beige tones with some copper or deep burnt orange for color. Our logo should reflect that while we're all business, we never forget that we're a Southern California agency. Simple, concise, with a bit of flash.
We should have the confidence that our logo can cross both the desk of a CEO and be taken seriously, and also be shown to small business owners and inspire their confidence in our Agency's grass roots ability to help them achieve their PR and Media goals.
As of now, we're indifferent as to whether our logo can either include a picture/graphic or not. Please note that the emphasis should be on "Media Group" rather than "McKinley Reserve."
Let your imagination run on this one.

Rayman Legends 3DS hasn't been "ruled out," says Ubisoft
Rayman Legends may eventually land on 3DS once some technical hurdles are jumped over, according to Ubisoft executive Alain Corre.
Speaking with CVG, Corre said due to the game being "very big game with a lot of levels," along with it's graphical prowess, it will take the team some time to "squeeze everything and downsize it onto other formats."
"But we're not ruling anything out for that format [the 3DS]," he said. "We can't say anything more for the moment, but we can't rule the format out."
Corre said with 3DS being such a huge success, and if Ubisoft thinks a particular game or gameplay style can be developed for the handheld, it "considers it."
He went on to say he feels Rayman Legends defines "what the quality of the Wii U is," and feels the system has "real potential and power."
"A machine works when you have great content on it," said Corre. "We feel Rayman was one, Just Dance is another one coming, with Donkey Kong and Mario from Nintendo also."
Rayman Legends is out now on Wii U, PS3, PC, Xbox 360 and Vita.

These days, in Germany there is a lively discussion about women's quota in major enterprises. The facts are clear: in most German businesses, especially in leadership positions, women are still underrepresented. Only 13 percent of the boards of directors of the 30 leading firms in Germany are women. Many politicians believe it is not enough that political parties or private businesses establish self-made women's quotas for their organizations. They claim that there must be a regulation to ensure an appropriate proportion of women in big businesses. Thus, Germany should again win the leadership among the international competition. For comparison, Norway adopted the women's quota for boards of directors in 2003. Spain followed in 2007 with a similar regulation. France took the step on January 13, 2011.
However, the Chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel, recently declared that there will not be a women's quota in Germany, since it would not be enforceable anyway. Rumors are circulating that she decided this way because she was concerned to lose votes in this very important election year 2011. Yet, clever enough, she also mentioned that she only decided against women's quota because economy should once again try to give themselves quotas without any state regulation.
Finally the women's quota issue also made it in Swiss headlines. Whereas in Swiss politics and government, women slowly compete men (four out of seven federal councils, 26 percent of the National Council and 24 percent of the Council of States, the head of the Swiss financial market supervisory authority and the head of the state secretariat for economic affairs are female), in economy there are still not enough women visible, and there is no perspective of change in the next couple of years. On an international comparison, Switzerland is among the last if it is about women in the executive suites.
Voices are getting loud for women's quota only partially. Arguments against are made and say that especially young women don't want to be so called 'quota women'. Others fear that state regulation displaces the individual freedom. Other arguments are made that it is unconstitutional: Art. 27 of the Swiss Federal Constitution provides the freedom of economy for individuals and private companies. However, given a statutory basis, it could be a legitimate restriction as being within a public interest and proportional. Another constitutional argument says that quotas violate the prohibition of discrimination based on gender according to Art. 8 Abs. 3 of the Swiss Federal Constitution. Yet, this argument is highly controversial.
Anyhow, some concerns might be more legitimate. Many examples show that women who finally made it to a leading position had to fight even harder to prove that they were not only quota women but qualified at least as much as a competing man was.
However, from my point of view, there are reams of reasons for the introduction of women's quotas for major enterprises. There are several studies (among others one from McKinsey) which show that the equity return and the profit in all of a business is clearly higher in businesses with gender-mixed management teams than in men-only teams. A UN research study shows that US firms with women in the business management feature a 42 percent higher operating margin than firms led only by men. The hope that the older men dominated generation would step back from their leading position in big firms and both female and male would fill their positions, did not occur. If the economy is not able to fill the free seats in their leading management with woman, coercion is probably the only solution to achieve gender equality.
Women supply half the market of enterprises. Their exclusion possibly leads to an alleviation of the potential for economic growth. Also, women are half of the market of businesses. They make half of the decisions regarding consummation. Furthermore, researches show that women are needed in leading positions of big businesses because of the aging of our society. It is assumed that in 30 years in Europe there will be an absence of 24 Million employees. If women would participate to same parts in the working life as men, the number could be reduced to 3 millions.
Although I believe that women's quota for big businesses are the best solution to reduce the discrimination against women, there would be several good alternatives and softer forms to augment the number of female employees in leading positions. One would be to reward the commitment for women's quota of every major enterprise. Another possibility would be to certify enterprises which advocate gender equality and exhibit a certain women's quota in their businesses. It is also possible that an enterprise can assert factual reasons to not fulfill the requested quota of female employees, e.g. because not enough women applied for open jobs, and that this would lead to the fact that these businesses would have to take action in respect of affirmative action programs for women and provisions for the advancement of women in big businesses. My favorite solution, however, is to legally regulate a women's quota on time for major enterprises. Therewith it would not be a rigid institution but a promoter for a self-supporting development.

Plus, Antoine Walker is one of the biggest ball-hogs ever. He's not that good of a shooter. The other teams played off of him and kept Dirk from receiving the pass from Walker. Antoine didn't want to pass it anyway.
Antoine also proved to be a terrible free throw shooter. He almost had a mental thing about it. Antoine could drive the basket but if he got fouled, it did no good. He'd shoot 50% at best. Until the Mavs got him, I thought he was a pretty talented player.
There are more things than talent. It has to be the right talent, used in the right way. It was a miracle the Mavs won 52 games that year. The roster was an abortion.uptempo wrote:1. Nelson put that team together, including acquiring the players.
Donnie put the team together at Cuban's direction. All the trades were made to bail Mark's @ss out of Raef's bad contract. It was Nelson who played the good soldier and made do and then took the blame because the team was less than it was before.uptempo wrote:2. Nelson did not emphasis defense with his team.
They hired Del Harris to run the defense. He's still there, running AJ's defense.uptempo wrote:3. AJ took that talent, emphasized playing defense (a necessity to advance in the playoffs), and got the team to the NBA Finals, something that Nelson has never done.
The Mavs now have centers, or weren't you paying attention? Statistically, the defense is virtually identical to the Nelson teams.I'm glad the Mavs have a good coach. They had a better coach. He's the solution at Golden State, not the problem.uptempo wrote:You should be appreciative of the job that AJ has done instead of pining for the return of Nelson. He, Nelson, is now our problem at Golden State.I like going to the NBA finals. It's just that I think Nelson got cheated out of the opportunity to silence some very ignorant critics. Instead of calling names, perhaps you should check your facts.uptempo wrote:Get over it; we don't need any Maverick trolls on the Golden State board.
The team that the Nelsons put together in Dallas was very much like the team that they had put together in Golden State. It was exciting to watch, however, deficient in defense and rebounding. Nelson Sr. was hired originally as GM and he immediately proceeded to dismantle the team in order to destroy any chance for Jim Clemons to succeed. Nelson Sr. did the same thing in Golden State to George Karl. Nelson had complete autonomy in personnel decisions, and he built an incomplete team in Dallas just like he did in Golden State.
Delmer was brought in to install the high post offense. Nelson had brought in Bob Weiss to Golden State to install the passing offense. Nelson's version of defense is to try to outscore the opponent, a fun concept during the regular season, but always fails in the playoffs (where defense and rebounding take precedence (just look at Miami, San Antonio, and Detroit (the last three NBA champions))).
If Nelson was a better coach than AJ, why didn't Nelson take a team with Steve Nash running the point and Michael Finley on the wing to the NBA finals?
We lived thru Nelson I a decade ago. He didn't do the job in Milwaukee; he didn't do the job in Golden State; he didn't do the job in NY; he didn't do the job in Dallas; and he won't do the job in Golden State. He is a good coach; however, to be a great coach, you have to win a championship. Al Attles is a better coach than Don Nelson; Al Attles coached a championship team.

This is a rare surviving example of an informal working study by a Renaissance master. Executed on a hastily prepared scrap of irregularly shaped wood, it was quickly painted and in some parts, like the hair on the right, left unfinished. Paint marks on the back indicate that it was picked up before the paint dried. Because this study was made for the artist's own use, it was not framed; instead, it was simply hung, as here, by a cord passed through holes near the top edge.
The artist probably asked a studio apprentice to pose for this penetrating study of a figure deep in thought. The sketch may have been used as a model for a figure in a larger painting.

Last week, Stanford University and New York University released a major study about the use of drones in the ever-evolving but never-ending war on terror. Unfortunately, many commentators missed the report's key message: Drones are terrorizing an entire civilian population.
I was one of the researchers for the study, and spent weeks in Pakistan interviewing more than 60 people from North Waziristan. Many were survivors of strikes. Others had lost loved ones and family members. All of them live under the constant threat of annihilation.
What my colleagues and I learned from these unnamed and unknown victims of America's drone warfare gave the report its title: "Living Under Drones."
People in the United States imagine that drones fly to a target, launch their deadly missiles with surgical precision and return to a U.S. base hundreds or thousands of miles away. But drones are a constant presence in the skies above the North Waziristan tribal area in Pakistan, with as many as six hovering over villages at any one time. People hear them day and night. They are an inescapable presence, the looming specter of death from above.

My life is a bore when the Sabres aren't playing/there is no hockey to be watched.
I'm 17 years of age, and I live with my parents. I still am in high school. I think when I tail it out of here, or I finally get a job, I am going to help pay for some NHL Network/a Center Ice package, because this is awful. I mean, what the hell, I can't even watch the Sabres play on their road trip out west in late January? Four games in a row that I have to listen to is going to kill me. I hate listening to the radio for games because I can't see what's going on. I need to have a visual sense of the game otherwise my adrenaline goes up way too much and I think I'm going to have a heart attack in my young life. Throw me a bone here, NHL.
Oh, and even though this has nothing to do with hockey, I hate my band instructor. I'm so glad that everyday he finds something to yell at the drummers for. We're always the ones that get ousted and made fun of. I'd like to tell those trumpet players that say we suck everyday to take my drum for the parade in Toronto, and I'll play their music because it's not like they do much anyways compared to us. Band should not be stressful like this.
Thank God the boys play tomorrow. I was about to lose my mind.

Kristine Lilly's Top 13: Favorite Games Moments
While it is virtually impossible for Kristine Lilly pick her 13 most favorite moments from an international career that began in 1987, like on the soccer field, she did her best, dug deep, and picked 13 that she really, really enjoyed.
Feb. 17, 1996 – Before a game against Sweden in Houston, Lilly hears the crowd singing the U.S. National Anthem. It is the first time she could really hear a crowd belt it out.
Said Lilly: "It's always an honor to wear the U.S. jersey and when you hear the crowd singing the anthem it reminds you that we are all in this together."
Jan. 16, 2006 – Lilly earns her 300th cap in a 3-1 win against Norway and scores on a brilliant direct free kick.
Said Lilly: "I just remember hitting it and being like 'this is going in.' And doing it against Norway, one of our biggest rivals, it was a great feeling. I hadn't scored many free kicks so it felt good."
July 10, 1999 – Brandi Chastain scores the winning penalty kick in the 1999 Women's World Cup Final.
Said Lilly: "I remember watching her kick and because of our angle, we all knew the ball was going in before it hit the net. I think I jumped the highest I've ever jumped in my entire life. It was pure happiness."
June 10, 1995 – The USA defeats Australia 4-1 in the final group game of the 1995 Women's World Cup.
Said Lilly: "This one was special because we had to score four goals to win the group and scored two in the last three minutes of the game, but even more so in that it was the first game of the tournament that my brother, Scott, had made it to. The stadium was pretty empty and before the game I knew he was there because he shouted…"Lilly sucks!'"
July 1, 1999 – The USA comes from a goal down twice to defeat Germany, 3-2, in 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup quarterfinals in front of President Bill Clinton.
Said Lilly: "I remember after that game having a really good feeling that we were going to win the World Cup."
August 23, 2004 – Lilly scores the first goal as the USA defeats Germany, 2-1, in overtime to advance to the Olympic gold medal match.
Said Lilly: "I remember being completely exhausted at the end of the game and grateful that we were about to play for a gold medal."
July 14, 2007 – The USA faces Norway in East Hartford, Conn. The game is a special one for the U.S. captain and Wilton, Conn., native as Governor M. Jodi Rell signs a proclamation declaring the day "Kristine Lilly Day." Lilly assists on the winning goal in the 1-0 victory.
Said Lilly: "It's always nice to play back in your home state and to be honored with a day was pretty special. My family and friends were there and it was really nice to share that with them."
May 7, 2000 – Kristine Lilly plays in her 200th match against Canada at PGE Park in Portland, Ore. and is carried off the field on the shoulders of her teammates.
Said Lilly: "I remember being nervous that they were going to drop me. And my parents were there to share it with me."
May 21, 1998 – Before the match in which she broke the all-time caps record, passing Norwegian Heidi Stoere when she played in her 152nd game in against Japan in Kobe, the team gives her a standing ovation in the locker room.
Said Lilly: "I remember just being caught off guard because (then head coach) Tony (DiCicco) was telling the team that I was about to break the record and everyone just started clapping. It was one of those private moments behind the scenes with just your teammates."
Nov. 30, 1991 – Winning the Women's World Cup, Lilly looks into the stands and sees her father with an American flag sticker on his cheek and a smile from ear to ear.
Said Lilly: "I just remember how proud he was. That made me feel great."
July 10, 1999 – After the USA wins the 1999 Women's World Cup, the injured and physically drained Michelle Akers makes her way back out to the field as the crowd chanted "Akers!, Akers! Akers!"
Said Lilly: "When I heard the chants, I remember wanting her to be on the stage with us because she was such a big part of us winning. Then we saw her coming out onto the field and I knew it was a great moment for her."
July 10, 1999 -- Lilly leaps to clear a ball off the goal line in sudden death overtime to save the Women's World Cup final. Fan Yunjie of China had sent a header over Briana Scurry that was heading into the goal, only to see Lilly on the spot to head the ball away.
Said Lilly: "I remember looking at Julie Foudy as we ran back up the field and the look on our faces told that story. We started laughing…'Did that just really happen?'"
Aug. 26, 2004 – Atop the medal stand in Athens, Greece, with the other four '91ers, the five U.S. Soccer pioneers – Lilly, Brandi Chastain, Joy Fawcett, Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy – leave their last world championship together as gold medallists.
Said Lilly: "I remember being so happy that we just won a gold medal, but I also knew that we would never stand there again as teammates. It was a very emotional moment for a lot of reasons."

Scientists from the CERN Laboratory near Geneva are expected to make an announcement on July 4, 2012 that either the Higgs Boson (God) particle has been discovered or extremely strong evidence of its existence has been gathered. The existence of the particle has been theorized for some time on the assumption that the so called Standard Model of Physics is a valid explanation of the properties of the universe. The particle is sometimes referred to as the God particle because it is supposed to assign size, shape and mass to all of the matter in the universe. Additionally, its existence would provide for the existence of multiple universes.
Update: The awaited announcement was that a new subatomic particle has in fact been discovered that, upon thus far shallow investigation, shows similarities to the theorized Higgs Boson.
Views: 605
Why don't they call it the god-damned particle as originally intended?
Good question.
For one thing, Peter Higgs, who did the original theoretical work (which must have been a BITCH!), is still alive and from where I sit, damned well deserves credit for that work!
So, where do we go from here?
We take the Standard Model of Physics all the more seriously and continue attempting to answer the question of why we exist.
The awaited announcement was that a new subatomic particle has in fact been discovered that, upon thus far shallow investigation, appears to be consistent with the theorized Higgs Boson.
BTW, if they are hedging on whether or not to come out and say, "We got the Higgs!", there's the matter of a discrepancy between Atlas and SMS detectors on the LHC. One had the mass of the Higgs at around 125 GeV, the other at 126 GeV. Sounds like calibration or correlation issues to me, along with the kind of reticence which you'll hear from religion only on days that don't end in "Y!"
Personally, I think this is thrilling news and can't wait to hear what else they've learned!
The Higgs should be labeled the "no god particle". If the Higgs particle or Higgs field imparts substance to the universe or, in other words, dictates that there is something rather than nothing then there is need of a god(s) to explain the existence of anything. The likely conformation of the Higgs existence will be one of the most significant events in science.
This is an exciting event.
You are wong, you do not know their, by this I mean tthe god-believer's, tenacity. They are very likely to describe this and any future discovery by saying "goddoneit!? They will tell you that the particles would never have accelerated to such high speeds without god's helping hand, or, that the particles would never split like they did without god's hand.
Interesting article from Discovery.com:
What If the New Particle Isn't the Higgs Boson?
Nice find! That would really make things exciting. It might lead to the unification of quantum mechanics and the Theory of Relativity.

As I walked into the paddock at the brand new Circuit of the Americas I immediately ran into a local F1 fan I first met back in February when I visited the scarcely started track. The joyous look on his face probably mirrored mine. A look that said "Holy shit this is really happening."
Could it really be? F1 in America? In Texas? After all the drama, the lawsuits, the work stoppages, the traffic. Are there really funny little foreign men in funny little cars racing around Elroy, Texas?
Yes. It is real. The buzz of high-revving V8s fills the air around me, sending a chill up my back, disrupting the breakfast tacos deep in my gut.
To be fair, the first thing Vance said was "We're not in Elroy anymore."
Taking the shuttle in from the media center this morning there were cows just outside the parking lot near turn 11. A sign that Elroy wasn't far off.
But walk through the gates, though, past the Texas National Guard Humvees (unclear whether they're around to enforce or prevent secession) and you're transported to F1. A world unto itself. A world where people adorn themselves in a disproportionate amount of Ferrari gear.
I saw Tavo Hellmund walking around, too. I wonder what's going through his mind? He's the man who made this happen, even if he's on technically on the outs.
Still, no Tavo. No race. Maybe the drama on the track will help erase the drama that surrounded building it and he can just enjoy what his vision has wrought.
I'm sitting in the media center now watching the first practice on a screen as cars wail by. Weber, Massa, Rosberg. They're all here. Feeling out Tilke's design as crowds of onlookers gawk at what's happening. Excitement slowly replacing disbelief.
A couple of guys on the shuttle on the way in came here from California and Florida without tickets. Pilgrims to speed. Drawn here with no guidance, just following the zip-gun sound. Hooked on the possibility of touching something so fast.
Will F1 succeed in America? I don't know. There's a lot of football and racing this weekend. It's possible they didn't sell as many tickets as they hoped or didn't book as many hotel rooms as they promised. The impact on the economy won't be known for a few days.
The impact on the people here — the many like me who'd never been to an F1 race — is known. People walking around, furiously tweeting, taking pics are all tacitly saying the same thing. A Texan prayer of sorts:
Holy shit, this is really happening. Amen.

In this paper we study the Hopf bifurcation for the tumor-immune system model with one delay. This model is governed by a system of two differential equations with one delay. We show that the system may have periodic solutions for small and large delays for some critical value of the delay parameter via Hopf bifurcation theorem bifurcating from the non trivial steady state.

text: The Rules Still Haven't Changed December 24, 2013 03:52 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By University News Release Email By: John Tyson, Agricultural Engineer Educator, Penn State Extension What makes good housing for cows with a robotic milking system? The simple answer is, the rules haven't changed! Every dairy shelter, no matter the style, needs to provide good ventilation, ready access to high-quality water and feed, a clean, dry, comfortable resting area, and confident footing. It doesn't matter how she is milked, the measures of what makes good housing and husbandry don't change. So start with the basics. What a cow really needs is air, water, feed, and a resting area. How well we as caretakers do at providing for those basic needs will determine how well the cow does at paying us back with milk production. Ventilation The goal of ventilation in a dairy shelter is to provide that clean, dry air to the cow, while removing excess moisture, heat and other pollutants. The key thing to remember here is that dairy cows are much more cold-loving animals than us humans. 50°F is often quoted as the ideal temperature for mature cows, and at 70°F they begin to feel the effects of heat stress. So while we may think those warm spring days feel really good, our cows may in fact be headed toward heat stress. Even in the dead of winter the shelter must have some ventilation to provide fresh air and remove moisture. The general rule of thumb for naturally ventilated, cold housing is the temperature within the shelter should be within 5°F to 10°F of the outside ambient air temperature. Any greater difference than that and there is a risk of buildup of excess moisture. Natural ventilation is largely dependent on local wind speed and the size of the opening in the shelter. We can select a site and building orientation that allow for the best possible exposure to those winds, but whether or not the wind blows on any given day is not up to us. Therefore the designer's best option is to maximize the available openings to promote summer ventilation. The rule is to have the openings of one sidewall and one endwall add up to 11 square feet per cow within the shelter. Water The second necessity to the cow is water. Water is the single largest feed ingredient on the farm. A high producing cow is drinking 250 to 330 pounds of water per day. That's more than twice what she eats in feed per day! Remember milk is really 87% water, and all that water needs to come from somewhere. While cows may drink large quantities of water in a day, they don't spend much time doing it. On average a cow only spends about one hour per day drinking, but can drink 3 to 5 gallons per minute. So a watering system must be designed to handle this large flow in a short time period. The general recommendation is to provide at least two watering stations within a group, and a total of 3 inches of water trough perimeter per cow. Feed Space One of the larger areas of discussion in robotic shelters is feed space. In the past 24 inches was the rule of thumb used, but with the lack of group flow of animals out of and into the shelter, it is speculated that the required feed space could be less in a robotic system. I think the jury is still out on this point, but what we do know is that having the physical design of that feed space so cows can easily access the feed is important. So rather than focus on the inches of space, perhaps we should focus on how easily a cow can reach under, through and/or over the feed barrier, and whether high quality feed is in fact there. Simply put, what must a cow do to get a bite of feed? Resting Area At last we make it to the resting area. As time goes on and we better understand cow behavior and therefore design resting areas for the cow herself, we have greatly improved cow comfort. Those same rules of body space, head space, lunging area, etc. that are used to design a non-robotic freestall shelter need to be used here. Why would a robotically milked cow rest any differently than her non-robotic cousin? Finally overseeing these four basic needs is the management of the system. Resting area maintenance, feeding frequency, manure scraping, system evaluation and adjustment can never be overlooked. The need for good husbandry skills never changes!

blastfun necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 5 diseños de 3 diseñadores freelance.
I'm looking to find an amazing logo for his website. I will also be in need of a matching home page design once the logo is finalized.
People who love rock music
The logo needs the name: AxBattles
The original thought of having the guitar player in the "A" + having the guitars crossed is too much. I do like the player in the "A" but the "X" would have to be more normal. I really like the fonts I found in the PDF, plus the degree/rotation of the guitars.
Notes on the attached PDF:
1) The black guitar would need to be mirror flipped to be the opposite of the "a". Maybe the right point could even be extended down a little further on that one side to make it look Sharp/Match the "A".
2) The white guitar's neck is missing for some reason...so that would obviously need to be there.
3) The spacing with the letter "A" and the two guitars, plus the placement over "Battles" looks all screwy. (best I could do)
4) The word "Battles" is kind of cool. Its a little too plain, but definitely closer to what I'm thinking of. Maybe a gentle handwritten swirl or slightly script look would make this look a little fancier. I just don't want it to look messy. I like the Sharp points on the letters.
If we could use the guitars that I have on this that would be ideal. The white one first and then the black. I don't really want Ax to overlap with Battles too much if at all.

I was at work until 1am last night and back up at 7 to come back in. I'm so tired. Here's the news.
"Beautiful Creatures" is a sassy new love story about two young lovers who find out each others dark pasts. It's going to be oozing with delights. Margot Martindale and Zoey Deutch have just been added to the cast. That's the news here. This morning on the bus I blacked out for a few seconds and when I came to I thought the bus had plunged into the Hudson river for a second. It was awesome.
Jake Gyllenhaal is in talks to star in a new thriller currently titled "An Enemy". The film focuses on a man who rents a video that turns out to star himself five years in the past. Wait does that sound real? I seriously can't even see straight so I may have just made that up. It sounds made up.
Don't ask my why but "The Mortal Instruments" sounds like a porno to me. Alright in all honesty 90% of the movie titles I read sound like porno's to me. But this is a big screen adaptation of the book by the same name and it's about a NYC lass who discovers she's a half angel warrior. News today has dropped that Harald Zwart, who directed "The Karate Kid" reboot a couple years back will take up the directing duty. If you're thinking about having kids I'll give you some insight. Kids do not care what time you went to bed. If they want to wake up at 7 you're waking up with them.
Have you ever had a Trenta iced coffee from Starbucks? Trenta is bigger than their large size. It's pretty much a bucket. I've had two so far today. I can hear colors. The crazy ass Japanese flick "Mutant Girls Squad" is finally getting a US Blu-Ray release on may 22nd.
An Arizona man is under arrest after he drank a bunch of Four Loko and then peed on a baby. And as soon as my wife reads this there will be a 0% chance that I will ever enjoy a Four Loko.
I can understand this New Jersey woman's anger. She went into 711 and they didn't have any sausage sandwiches available at 4am so she started throwing crap. I also understand why the police would pepper spray her. But seriously, those sausage sandwiches are super good.

Overseas Business
CJ Nutra, Symbolizing Health and Confidence
CJ CheilJedang entered the overseas markets for sugar and MSG in the 1960s and thereafter has continuously promoted processed food exports throughout the 1970s when it targeted Koreans living abroad in the U.S., Japan and China. In the 1980s, products using nucleotides, lysine and antibiotics as ingredients were added to its global repertoire and, accordingly, CJ CheilJedang gradually increased the scope of its overseas business.
In particular, Bio and Pharma have been the areas CJ CheilJedang most extensively focused on in its overseas markets. CJ CheilJedang entered the Indonesian market in November 1989 for the purpose of expanding its bioscience business. After securing a stable market in Indonesia for feed, chicken farming, lysine, nucleotides and MSG, CJ CheilJedang moved to Vietnam, Myanmar and the Philippines in the 1990s. CJ CheilJedang plans to add pharmaceutical production and marketing businesses to its existing feed business in these countries.
CJ CheilJedang actively explores local markets abroad by developing products that satisfy diverse consumer tastes.
Food business, the cornerstone of CJ CheilJedang, is being actively carried out in China and the U.S. In China, the local offices are performing various activities related to sales and market development for meat processing, Dashida, food ingredients and food materials. In the USA, the world's largest market, CJ CheilJedang has been actively conducting business activities targeting Korean residents since the mid-1990s. In 2002, processed foods on the scale of KRW 5 million were sold in the U.S. More recently, CJ CheilJedang is developing and diversifying Hetbahn and seasoning products to suit the taste of U.S. consumers and therefore is actively developing the local markets there.

CHICAGO (STMW) – Football fans attending Sunday's Bears game against the Green Bay Packers have plenty of ways to get to the game — including CTA, Metra, Pace and numerous parking lot options. The Bears host the Packers at 3:15 p.m. at Soldier Field.
People taking public transportation to Soldier Field can take Green, Orange or Red Line trains to the Roosevelt station then walk east to a walkway through the Museum Campus and under Lake Shore Drive to the stadium at 1410 S. Museum Campus Dr., according to the CTA's website.
Suburban football fans can take Metra trains to Union Station and the Ogilvie Transportation Center then take a No. 128 Soldier Field Express or No. 130 Museum Campus bus to the game, the CTA said. Metra trains also stop at the LaSalle Street Station and Millennium Station.
From Downtown, the Nos. 130 and 146 Inner Drive/Michigan Express buses stop in front of the stadium and also connect with Green, Orange and Red Line trains at the Roosevelt station, according to the CTA.
Pace operates Soldier Field Express buses that depart from the Northwest Transportation Center at 1730 Kimberly Dr. in Schaumburg, 138 Yorktown Shopping Center in Lombard and 126 E. Old Chicago Dr. in Bolingbrook, according to the team's website.
For fans driving to the game, parking facilities immediately surrounding the stadium require a parking coupon and open four hours before kickoff, according to the team's website. The lots close two hours after the game.
A limited number of single game parking passes for various lots can be purchased in advance.
Additionally, fans can pay cash to park in the following lots: East Monroe Street/Millennium Park Garages, 31st Street McCormick Place Lot B, Presidential Towers Garage, Grant Park North/South Garages, McCormick place Lakeside Garage Lot C, Adler Planetarium Lot and Burnham Harbor Lot, according to the team's website. Some of those lots provide shuttle bus service to the game.

Most of you have installed Jaunty by now. Some might have decided to experiment with the bleeding edge Ext4 which offers benefits:
The biggest advantage to ext4 is the support for larger volumes (up to 1 exabyte) and larger files (16 terabytes). There are other improvements that ext4 regarding allocation. Both pre-allocation and delayed allocation have been added. These improvements deal with how space is allocated for files. The former will boost performance for systems like streaming media and databases. The latter will improve fragmentation.
To those of you regretting not enabling Ext4 here is how you can convert your Ext3 into Ext4 without reinstalling.
Note: This thing can be only by those with super geek powers. If you are new to Linux wait till Ubuntu 9.10, which will come with Ext4 baked in.
1. Boot the computer from the Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop CD.
2. Once you are booted into the live environment, run the following command replacing /dev/DEV with the drive partition that you want to upgrade.
tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/DEV
[where O is the capital letter O, not zero]
3. You then need to run fsck to fix up some on-disk structures that tune2fs has modified. Run the following command:
e2fsck -fD /dev/DEV
4. Next, mount the drive. Run the following command:
mount -t ext4 /dev/DEV /mnt
5. Edit fstab and change ext3 to ext4 on the drive you upgraded.
UUID=xxxx / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
6. Finally, you need to run grub-install on your new partition. The version of grub that shipped with Ubuntu 8.10 cannot boot from ext4 partitions so if you skip this step, your computer won't boot.
grub-install /dev/DEV –root-directory=/mnt –recheck
7. Reboot to see the effect.

As it says on the front cover, this book is a "Business Novel" i.e. an engaging story set in the business/academic world which teaches the reader important concepts through the character interactions ... Read full review
There is probably more 'waste' created during the execution of a project than in any other business activity. This book addresses the issue of why so many projects over-run in time and cost and also deliver less than was required. Goldratt follows his well know 'Theory of Constraints' thinking to address the conflicting objectives within any project. The result is some novel thinking on the use of time buffers and priorities in project management.
The book is written as an extended case study and unfortunately the author mixes it in with a 'personal' storyline (as he does in most of his books), so that the book is longer than necessary. However skimreaders will have no problem with this and all readers will gain a valuable insite into improving their project management skills.

Although movies and TV shows available on the iTunes Store aren't staggeringly expensive, they still cost money, so most of us expect them to work properly. Unfortunately, some users have been reporting problems with the Dolby 5.1-channel sound on iTunes Store purchases for a while now. As noted by AppleInsider, the lack of 5.1-channel sound in purchases appears to be due to some sort of encoding bug, but Apple has been very slow to respond to the issue.
Apple has been promoting its inclusion of Dolby surround sound since it first started making its appearance in iTunes Store content, but the issue of the disappearing surround sound only started to appear after the launch of iTunes 8 back in September of 2008. The surround sound tracks of iTunes Store purchases just don't work, and only a stereo mix is available. The issue occurs on both OS X and Windows with all audio outputs, although the Apple TV isn't affected.
So far, the most likely cause is some type of encoding issue that causes the 5.1-channel track to break when played back via the QuickTime framework in iTunes or Front Row. A bit of work with QuickTime Pro has revealed that the channels are somewhat different than expected, and tweaking things a bit causes the surround sound track to return.
Apple does know about the issue, but the company hasn't commented on it just yet (big surprise there). Because of this, there's no indication of when the problem will be fixed. With any luck, the company will be able to issue some sort of software update to address the problem, since re-encoding the affected content and making users download it again would be a real pain for everyone involved.

2 items we recommend are the Arduino MEGA ADK R3 for Android and Beginning Android ADK with Arduino. Add a Android phone or tablet, and you are on your way to creating some very cool apps, limited only by your imagination.
I just finished reading this book, and I highly recommend it. It makes it easy to create apps and communication between the Arduino and the Android!

This question has always been interesting to me. I'm poz and participate on a forum on another site. There are some who are adamant that transmission is totally impossible, if someone ejaculates in their hand and then inserts it into someone's anus. They will say the virus is fragile, air would kill it, etc.
I think they may be giving bad advice. Can we say that all viable virus would be killed in less than a second, especially if someone has a very high viral load? This actually caused an argument. Some said it was perfectly fine to use someone's semen as lubricant to continue having sex with a condom. That just seems messed up logic to me. Perhaps I just don't understand enough about the virus. I wouldn't feel comfortable telling someone the virus is totally killed in such a short amount of time.
Thanks for your input. As I said, maybe the virus is really rendered dead in a split second.
Response from Mr. Glenn
Thanks for your question/comment,
I feel the same way you do. HIV does not die as soon as it hits the air (in a "split second"). It begins to die.
If someone with HIV were to ejaculate on their finger and then immediately stick that finger up someone's butt, that could definitely be risky.
There's a problem when we try to figure out exactly how risky though. How deep is the finger pushing the cum up the butt? How much was there in the first place? How much get pushed off as the finger goes in? Did the finger actually go in immediately after the poz guy came or did he wait a little?
All these questions complicate the answer, especially if we're talking about a penis covered in cum as opposed to a finger! The bottom line is that if cum goes up the butt there could definitely be risk. It's not an exact science of how long it takes for HIV to die. We know it's pretty quick, but why chance it?
I know these isn't a super clearcut answer, but neither is the situation. People may be looking for ways to almost get the experience of "raw/natural" sex, but I'd caution people away from does it this way!
Hope this helps!

I just finished watching A Man for All Seasons, about the conflict between St. Thomas More and Henry VIII. It was a good movie to watch while sick in bed. The kids even sat and watched it with me.
As you know, Sir Thomas More refused to swear an oath to King Henry's supremacy in England over the Church and to the validity of his divorce and remarriage.
Some of the lines from the movie stuck with me...
Speaking to his beloved daughter, Meg, as she pleads with him to take the oath to save his life:
Listen, Meg, God made the angels to show Him splendor, as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But Man He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of his mind. If He suffers us to come to such a case that there is no escaping, then we may stand to our tackle as best we can, and, yes, Meg, then we can clamor like champions, if we have the spittle for it. But it's God's part, not our own, to bring ourselves to such a pass. Our natural business lies in escaping. If I can take the oath, I will.
And, to his biographer and son-in-law-to-be:
William Roper: So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!
Sir Thomas More: Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?
William Roper: Yes, I'd cut down every law in England to do that!
Sir Thomas More: Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake!
St. Thomas More is a saint I really like but then don't totally understand. I recently read More's Utopia, which wobbles back and forth between communistic ideas and a criticism of the same. I'd like to think I knew where More stood, but the questions will have to remain until I can reread the book or my kids get old enough to explain it to me.

*NSYNC's JC Chasez Is Working On 'Glee' Star Matthew Morrison's Debut Album!
Matthew is a super talented performer, has a fabulous body and now has *NSYNC's JC Chasez working on his debut album — talk about something to be thankful for!
Glee Star Matthew Morrison's ripped abs, flawless vocals and all around sexiness is working on a new album, but don't expect it to be all about Glee or Broadway. *NSYNC's JC Chasez is writing songs for the 32-year-old triple threat and he promised he's creating a sound that is strictly tailored to Mr. Morrison…and not Mr. Shuester!
The 34-year-old former boybander promised us this was the case at the launch of the Rolling Stone Restaurant in Hollywood Nov. 21 and now we are giddy with ant-ici…….pation!
"I mean when you do Glee, you cover everyone else's songs, so now you have to dream up a sound that would be specifically tailored to him. So for the last couple months, I have been experimenting with some different sounds and working with some producers, it's a lot of fun," the 34-year-old former boy bander told us at the Rolling Stone restaurant launch in Hollywood Nov. 21, adding, "You know, you have to take him out of the classroom!"
So what's this non-Gleeful sound? "It's modern and contemporary; he's got a great voice, so I have to make songs that are made for him," JC explained.
Are you as excited as we are to hear Matthew and JC's collaboration?
