Hey guys, long time lurker (less lurking now that Hash is no longer here to provide some drama,) first time poster..So I've recently moved back to Thailand, and last Wednesday, the people running LOL Thailand (Garena's Thailand partner, PlayInter) has asked me to help them develop the scene. They think they have a pretty good idea on how to develop the Professional Scene, but currently they have nothing in place for anything below the Challenger circuit. My job is to develop an entire player-development system for lvl 30s (so people with understanding of the game mechanics) from the darkest pits of Bronze all the way up to like Plat 1. This includes both Solo Que and Team Rank.
Since many people at RoG are very helpful, I thought I'd open up the discussion with you guys. I'm sure there are some great ideas out there.
First off, let me start by saying we've identified the 4 areas we think are needed to systematically improve players:
1. Knowledge: So we're creating a knowledge center. This will include all the mechanics and game knowledge in one place for everyone to study. We'll try to go as indepth as possible, with videos and narration and everything. The main purpose is to provide tactical knowledge to the playerbase (eg. everyone should know that 2/5 of the team shouldn't be in bot lane when baron is up at 45 min, or item builds) and also a mechanical skill check-list so people know which mechanics they still need to work on.
2. Practice: This one we're really struggling with since the Riot game client itself doesn't allow for any real practice mode. So the best we can do here is to suggest practice routines and provide video manual.
3. Guidance: We're looking at how to implement mentor system since guided players improve so much faster than non-guided ones. To be honest, we're not sure how to construct a robust mentor system yet, since everything has to be done in 3rd party (client doesn't really support.) We want the better players in our community to help teach others, by giving social status and in-game rewards. There are so many things we have to consider, particularly system abuse (such as Diamond players boosting their smurfs to earn themselves rewards.) Quite frankly, this area is the one we need the most work on.
4. Competitive Experience: Right now, there is a real lack of tournaments for the lesser players, which is a damn damn shame considering vast majority of people are below Diamond. We want the players who aren't as good to get a taste of competitive experience by hosting regular tournaments for all levels (above lvl 30 of course) because we believe tournaments is the ultimate way to test yourself and to really enjoy this game. We want to approach it from a holistically so that the entire system would synergize. Basically, like the current Rank Team ladder, but tournament style and with actual rewards. System abuse is still something we're very concerned with.
Regarding rank team, we're also creating a sort of matchmaker site, similar to a job market website, whereby teams can post positions, and free agents can also post their resume to help more rank team form.
So yeah, that's about all we've got so far. We're extremely excited about this opportunity (we have until the start of S4 to get everything ready) and I would love to hear from you guys. Any idea at all. If you have any suggestion, especially for websites that already do some of these things (for example, I know there are some youtube channels out there that focus on teaching mechanics) please share them. I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you!

Maybe not the best place for input on this. I have a 2010 Bianchi Vigorelli, it is a steel frame road bike with carbon fork.
The place I recently moved to has a nice hardpack trail I want to ride on. It is a combination of hard packed dirt/sand and rough cement depending on the stretch of trail.
I want to take the trail but feel like at minimum I would need bigger tires, as most people seem to have a mountain bike or hybrid bike on it. Is it common to just buy a separate wheel set with some beefier tires for my road rig to ride on trails like that? What tires would you recommend for non-racing and not expecting true offroad with dirt/mudd. Would I need any other modifications to add the bigger tires?

This is the latest ballot in indieWIRE's 2008 Critics Poll, continuing the tradition of a national survey of critics by calling attention to the year's best -- and, in many cases, most overlooked -- films, providing a meaningful counterpoint to much of the year-end hoopla. Note that some lists are unranked at the discretion of the critic. For all categories except Best Undistributed Film, eligible feature films had first-run theatrical engagements in the U.S. during 2008. Films without a U.S. distributor, screened anywhere (festival circuit, one-off screenings, etc.), are eligible in the Best Undistributed Film category. The full list of critics poll ballots is available here at indieWIRE and tabulated results are being published by indieWIRE later this month.

Developers celebrate the apps that inspire them
Chances are strong that If you like making mobile apps and games, you like using mobile apps and games as well. And the apps and games that make the biggest impression either influence what a developer creates, or offer the motivation to create something equally great. Consumers show their preferences by what they download from app stores, but what resonates with other developers is not always as easy to identify. With that in mind, FierceDeveloper recently reached out to entrepreneurs across the country and asked them to pick a few titles that set the standard for excellence. Click here for what they said.

In the near future the distribution of entertainment video contents, especially over the Internet, will represent the killer app for operators in terms of monetization both through advertising and Premium Pay offers. At the moment there are several viable monetization options for operators, based both on the provision of free, ad-sponsored video contents, flat fee and à la carte services and the implemetation of the so-called pay-as-you-go approach.

Arsenal's Denilson has been on loan with Sao Paulo since 2011 and has spoken frequently about his desire to stay in Brazil with the only other club he has played for but it seems as if that might not be as straight forward as many would imagine.
With just under six months left on his loan deal, the president of Sao Paulo has said regarding the possibility that they will make Denilson's move permanent
It's early. We will see if we want to buy him, but not now, in the middle of the year.
Seemingly playing down any possibility of a move contradicts what the vice president said just one week ago when he claimed that he was confident of being able to come to an arrangement with Arsenal over the permanent signing of the player.
Speaking last week Denilson reiterated his desire to stay with Sao Paulo saying
If Sao Paulo came tomorrow telling me that I was signed, it would be an immense joy. It has always been my desire to stay at the club.
Denilson will have 12 months left on his Arsenal contract once his loan deal expires on June 30th. Randomly, there have been reports that Juventus are interested in signing him.

If you are using any version of Sun Java that is prior to JRE Version 5.0 update 6,
then you are strongly urged to remove any/all versions that are prior to JRE/JSE
Version 5.0 update 6. There are vulnerabilities in them and they are actively being
exploited. It is possible that is how you got infected with malware.
Therefore, it is highly suggested that if there are any prior versions of Sun Java
to Version 5 update 6 on the PC that they be removed ASAP.
The latest version is Sun Java JRE/JSE Version 5.0 Update 8
Simple check, look under...
C:\Program Files\Java
The only folder under that folder should be the latest version.
Such as...
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_08
1) Dump the contents of your IE cache -
Start --> settings --> control panel --> Internet options --> delete files
2) Dump the contents of the Mozilla FireFox Cache { if you use FireFox }
Tools --> Options --> Privacy --> Cache --> Clear
3) Dump the contents of your Sun Java cache -
Start --> settings --> control panel --> Java applet --> cache --> clear

Cooking With Your Children (cont.)
Indeed, cooking with kids can be the gift that keeps on giving; it has both short-term and long-term payoffs.
Some of the short-term benefits:
Some long-term benefits:
Less likely to abuse drugs? It makes perfect sense if you consider a report from The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. In the report, Family Matters: Substance Abuse and the American Family, the center recommends 10 steps parents can take to prevent substance abuse. Among them are these three:
1. Be caring and supportive of your child.
2. Open the lines of communication.
3. Eat dinner together regularly.
How to Start Cooking with Your Kids
One good place to start is the first meal of the day: breakfast. Evidence suggests that eating breakfast improves memory and test grades (some elements of a healthy breakfast are high-fiber and nutrient-rich whole grains, fruits, and dairy products).

Alleson Knox, special to WTOP
WASHINGTON – The next time you visit your favorite restaurant, keep in mind that you're being watched.
It's called "reading" the table, a process that allows waiters to know what type of service you prefer without asking.
The Wall Street Journal says the technique is used by restaurants to make service more individualized, compared to using the standard and dated script of, "I'm so-and-so and I will be your server tonight."
The reading helps to determine what type of service will be required. At the table, waiters pay attention to body language, eye contact and interactions between those at the table to establish the pace of the meal, the Journal reports.
The technique reportedly is used in fine dining and inexpensive chain restaurants alike. Restaurants are training staff members to note offhand remarks in order to make service less mechanical and battle for customers' dollars.
The Journal reports something as simple as a guest being on a laptop can suggest a lack of interest in appetizers or cocktails.
To see a list of signals you may be sending that could affect the type of service you receive, read the full article from The Wall Street Journal and check out the video below.

These pretty monograms are from a vintage 1954 pattern book of crochet edgings and were originally meant to be filet crochet patterns for trimming sheets. Because filet crochet designs are drawn on a grid they work equally well for cross stitch.

In last week's poll we were making fun of Walmart when we asked our readers, "You buy your kid a new 3DS from Walmart. What's worse?," followed by three options: "Finding porn on it," "Discovering that Walmart sold you a used 3DS as new," or that "You bought something at Walmart."
Around 499 votes were cast, with 47 percent (235 votes) of readers noting that buying something new and finding out later that it was restocked after being returned was the worst of all three choices. Around 36 percent said that "buying something at Walmart" is one of the worst things, while only 16 percent said that finding porn on a 3DS was the worst thing that could happen to you.
Thanks to everyone who voted in last week's poll. The latest episode of Super Podcast Action Committee offers a more in-depth discussion on the poll at the 28 minute mark.
Look for a new poll later this week.

Contemplating retirement after a second term, FDR sought to place his papers in a research facility for the benefit of the public. But no archive would accept his entire collection of records documenting his presidency and his lifetime in public service. So Roosevelt decided to build his own. Read More...

Champions League? by GP
I want to point out that, although Arsenal have qualified for the Champions League again, there is something that continues to anger me.
The question I have for Mr Wenger is how many times have we really threatened to go all the way apart from 2006 and 2009?
Every season we have a situation where we can win the group thereby making the next draw easier on paper. Despite that, Wenger continues to go into these games with weakened teams which result in defeat and a tougher draw for the next round.
We drew AC Milan last year and Barcelona the two years before that because of the same complacency yet he states refereeing decisions as the reason for finishing second in the group.
It seems that he is happy being in the competition for the prestige but like the Premier League, he knows we are not good enough to win it.
By complete contrast. Borussia Dortmund finished bottom of our group last season with 2 points. They vowed to learn from their mistakes and have come back a year later to dominate the toughest group of all – And they are not spending Man City or PSG-style money. A sense of professional pride and competitiveness is what has turned them into genuine challengers for the Champs League.
You cannot keep pretending to do your best when our eyes tell us otherwise. Trying your best would have been to travel with a stronger squad to Greece. Apparently fatigue only exists at our club. What kind of message is he sending by telling our players they are jaded in early December? Injured yes, tired? sorry……
Most of Europe's biggest clubs will play their big names even when they have already qualified because they appreciate
that winning is a habit. I know we do not have the deepest squad in terms of quality but that is by choice.
We cannot keep hiding behind the big spending of others as an excuse for our own failure….

Tiny teenager from India is smallest girl in the world
14 years old. 1 foot 11 inches tall.
OK, who's gonna set her up with this handsome stud?
She's like a real life American Doll...errr...you know what i mean
First that thing with 4 arms and legs and now this? Wuuut. I want to see her on a bike.
Every passing minute is another chance to turn it all around.
Trek is going to make her a 1oz carbon fiber miniminimegasmallminisuperdupermini madone road bike.
I am just a-freakin amazed at how size perfect she is. She is soo small.
I work with several students who are - not sure how to say - size challenged - and prefer little people - but actually prefer to be treated like every other human being who enters the office - including walking up to the front desk or my desk behind that area with a "receptionist" kinda greeting area kinda wall and I can sometimes not see the person talking. Not pleased about that (my office area) and will be working on changing that.
While the person/people I am talking too seems unphased by it (to me) - I'm not pleased. And this includes paraplegics as well - sigh, always trying to upgrade and help. But I do have to say - most of the people who ... have to deal with dealing with the world from a lower vantage point, etc - are some of the more focused and forgiving peeps I've run into.
Cool people and my office will be changing this next year.
even more disturbing is how lisa marie presley is looking more and more like her daddy.

GENERIC NAME: anakinra
BRAND NAME: Kineret
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Anakinra is a synthetic (man-made), injectable, interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist that blocks the effects of human interleukin-1. It is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. IL-1 is a protein that is produced by many cells in the body. It is found in increased amounts within joints that are inflamed by arthritis. IL-1 attaches to receptors on the tissues within and surrounding the joints as well as on the cells that are responsible for inflammation, for example, white blood cells. The attachment of IL-1 activates the cells to release enzymes that promote inflammation. The enzymes destroy the cartilage and bone and contribute to pain and swelling of the joints. Anakinra attaches to the IL-1 receptor and prevents IL-1 from attaching to the receptor. Thus, the inflammatory and enzyme-releasing effects of IL-1 are prevented and pain and swelling of the joints are reduced. Anakinra was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in November 2001.
PRESCRIBED FOR: Anakinra is used for treating the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis in individuals 18 years of age or older. It is not a first-line drug but is used in individuals who have failed at least one of the other disease-modifying drugs that are used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. It can be used alone or in combination with other agents, but it should not be used with drugs that block tumor necrosis factor alpha such as infliximab (Enbrel) and etanercept (Remicade). (See drug interactions.)

Autopsy: Child fire victim died of burn complications
Police and fire officials offered no indication Thursday they are close to an arrest as they pressed ahead with the investigation of a West Scranton arson that killed two young brothers.
An autopsy found Michael Miles, 10, who was fatally injured in the fire with his brother, Taevon, 9, died of complications from burns, Lehigh County First Deputy Coroner Paul Hoffman said. The coroner's office listed the manner of his death as homicide.
City public safety director Ray Hayes said there was little to update about the progress of the investigation into the fire that tore through the boys' home at 166. S. Hyde Park Ave. on Tuesday around 1:15 a.m.
Investigators were conducting interviews of people "who may have knowledge of the fire" and continuing to gather and evaluate forensic evidence, Mr. Hayes said.
"There is no way for us to surmise or speculate when an arrest warrant will be issued for the perpetrator of this crime," he said.
Taevon died at Community Medical Center about an hour after the fire. Michael was taken to Lehigh Valley Hospital in Allentown, where he died late Tuesday. The boys' mother, Tyaisha Leary, and brother, Nijea, 12, also were injured.
Mr. Hayes said Ms. Leary's ex-boyfriend, William Robert Woods, 40, who was arrested Tuesday night for allegedly threatening to kill her and burn down her house July 3, is still a suspect in the arson, but he would not say if police were looking at other suspects.
"I'm not in a position to comment on that," he said.
Although investigators determined the fire was deliberately set, they have not disclosed how or where it was started.
Mr. Hayes said the only thing he could add about the origin of fire is that all other possible causes have been ruled out, "and the actions of the perpetrator were designed specifically to start the fire."
Court records show Mr. Woods was twice in police custody in the days before the fire but released each time without having to post bail.
On Wednesday, District Attorney Andy Jarbola criticized Magisterial District Judge Robert Russell, who handled both cases, for not requiring bail.
Judge Russell's office said Thursday he would have no comment.

Rest in Peace Teavon and Michael... Two more angels too soon... they better get this ba@#^@*d and put him in GP quickly..Also I pray for a quick recovery for both Mom and other son...
I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the people who criticize the police would turn their backs on a neighbor in need, never mind help strangers. And I bet they'd be more than willing to receive their aid if in need.
I know that I could never do their job. Although there is no question that there are some bad cops, just like there are bad people in any profession, the overwhelming majority are exceptional people. They deserve the respect and thanks of everyone in their respective communities. As bad as the world is...Imagine a world without these brave men and women! If you see a police officer, be sure to say THANK YOU.
(And no, I'm not an officer, nor am I related to one.)
He's not walking the streets now. They only lock these guys up after they no longer pose a threat (because he accomplished his goal).

I haven't been able to come up with a better than n=11 alternative. I'm pretty sure (branching my results at n=15) that there's nothing between 12 and 14.

The mean of four numbers
araver replied to BMAD's topic in New Logic/Math PuzzlesAgreeing with Rob. Or kinda disagreeing with both
n=11 in my post above.
I keep forgetting to click "Sort by Date" and when it sorts by rating I get confused. My question was different, let me rephrase: Assume there was no round before (A,B,C) =(4, 2, 5) with B and C active gets at the end of round 1 to (4, 4, 3). 1) Do we stop here even if the active players are not the ones equal? Bonanova's response does imply so i.e. Game ends at the end of the round if ANY 2 players are equal (different wording than OP though). So we count a minimum of 1 round before game with (4,2,5) ends. 2) If welet it go to the nextround since the two active players (B and C) are not equal: 2A) assumingA and B could be active AND if we don't check the condition before we subtract, then one of them gets 0, and that may cause infinite rounds. 2B) If we do check the condition A=B since they are the active, then we call the game ending in Round 2. What I meant is that different wording makes either N=1 or N=2. In any case, I'm assuming and counting using rule "Game ends at the end of the round if ANY 2 players are equal". And another submission from me:
Question on wording of the goal:The game ends when the two active players in any round have exactly the same stake. If (A,B,C) go into a round, B and C are active and B = A at the end of the round (e.g. B = A/2, B<C), does that count as stopping the game OR the gamegoes to the next round where only if C sits out the goal is met?
Partitioning a Triangle into similar pieces
araver replied to BMAD's topic in New Logic/Math PuzzlesSorry, butI was wrong about my "trapezoid" solution. At most two trapezoids would be similar, forcing the third to be similar would make all congruent. I've circled around and am pretty sure now there's no other way to split a triangle into 3 similar yet non-congruenttrianglesunless it's follows Bonanova's solution. And I think the samehypothesis holdsfor showing no 3 simlar quadriterals can be obtained either (limit case is 3 congruent trapezoids for an equilateral triangle). With more than 4 sides ... that's even more unlikely, as they won't have the necessary number of sides to begin with(i.e. partition a triangle into 3 pentagons /hexagons).
Partitioning a Triangle into similar pieces
araver replied to BMAD's topic in New Logic/Math PuzzlesI don't have spoilers on mobile interface, sorry. Does the problem state ANY triangle? I can do this for right triangles (which are not isosceles) with 3 similar non congruent triangles and I can do it for equilateral triangles with 3 trapezoids similar non-congruent. But not for any triangle. EDIT: just saw Bonanova's that is my solution as well, but it does not work for A=B.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. - Although Dan Girardi made the final mistake in the Stanley Cup finals opener, his fellow New York Rangers realize their stalwart defenseman hardly deserves the blame for their defeat.
The Rangers rallied to Girardi's defense Thursday, confidently declaring he'll bounce back from the turnover that led to Justin Williams' goal in the Los Angeles Kings' 3-2 overtime victory.
"We understand that wasn't the deciding factor in the game ultimately," said Ryan McDonagh, Girardi's defensive partner. "We could have done a lot more to help our chances. It's unfortunate that it happens to us at that point in the game, but he's a guy that has been through so many ups and downs in his career. We know he's going to bounce back and be a huge part of our Game 2 here."

AP?Photo/New York head coach Alain Vigneault, center, watches during the third period of Game 1 in the Stanley Cup Final Wednesday in Los Angeles.
The Rangers didn't make Girardi available to the media at their oceanside hotel, but his teammates and coach Alain Vigneault made it clear Girardi's errant pass was just the last miscue in a rough finish at Staples Center.
Despite blowing an early two-goal lead and getting outshot 20-3 in the third period, the Rangers were hanging in with the Kings before Girardi stumbled to his knees and passed the puck straight to Los Angeles' Mike Richards, who fed Williams for the winner 4:36 into overtime.
Vigneault's assistants checked in with Girardi after the turnover, making sure the defenseman wasn't hung up on his mistake heading into Game 2 on Saturday.
"I do know that Dan has got great teammates," Vigneault said. "I'm sure that they've all talked to him. It was a bounce. It was a bounce that unfortunately didn't work out. He couldn't put the handle on it. Stuff like that happens. You've got to turn the page and move on."
Indeed, McDonagh and Girardi had already dissected the play on their own after the game.
McDonagh recalled his own mistake in a playoff game against Washington last year, putting the puck over the glass during overtime and setting up a winning power-play goal for the Capitals.
"(Girardi) doesn't sulk (or) think about the what-ifs," McDonagh said. "He just tries to correct it, see what he can do better, and we're there supporting him."
The trouble started when the puck jumped on Girardi, who whiffed on a clearing attempt. Girardi chased it down and made a hasty move under pressure, trying to clear the puck up the wall - or maybe sending an outlet pass to Derek Brassard.
"It looks like a terrible mistake, but bouncing pucks happen all over the ice," McDonagh said. "When you're back there, you just try and do your best to get ahold of the thing before it gets out of control."
Richards, who nearly went off on a change, stepped right into the pass and got it ahead to Williams, who beat Henrik Lundqvist high to the stick side.
"Maybe I'll go higher next time, or go to the corner and eat it," Girardi said after the game. "But I'm not going to dwell on it. You've got to have a short-term memory. I'm just going to forget about it and come out the next game hard."

The Big Swallow
We no longer link to this site.
We no longer link to this site.
The Big Swallowis home to hot chicks who always swallow! You won't find any spitting here, it's cum guzzling all the time and nothing is left to the imagination! After all, a gal without her daily quota of protein is certainly not at her best. Even if a cumload a day keeps the protein deficiency away, somehow the nutritional balance here has been allowed to lapse, because it's been over a year and a half since the last update.
All the action on TheBigSwallow is great to watch, but finding a favorite is hard to do. Mine was Drew's first time being fucked by two guys. Victoria did a good job with some hardcore fucking and Ashley and Jamie took on four guys in a full-out down-and-dirty orgy session. This is all well and good, but you will encounter an issue with the 63 videos.
On the one hand, at least they're all downloadable and that wasn't always the case. However, they give you mostly mediocre-quality playback, because the only average-quality option is a streaming Flash version that only less than a third of the vids provide. That's a big disappointment, because the action is hot even if the presentation is not quite up to par.
There are 63 photo sets to be found by pressing the "digital stills" button beside each update rather than "photo gallery" button that only leads to blurry vid caps. You can't download the pics in Zip files or watch them in an automatic slideshow. All the same, they show you some solo posing that you won't see in the vids. They also give you closeups of the babes as they take shots of hot cum in their mouths.
Still hungry for more? There are 30 full-access bonus sites, including Big Tit Patrol, Big League Facials, Tinys Black Adventure, Please Bang My Wife and Mr Chews Asian Beaver. These additional sites seem to make up for the lack of sperm-swallowing updates, but keep in mind that you can only download six movies per day. Saying The Big Swallow is a worthwhile site would be easier to swallow as a line if there were better-quality vids and ongoing updates.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

How long can you last? Perhaps the real question is how long HAVE I lasted? Ive gone through dry spells that would give monks fits. So forgive me if Im not all that sympathetic towards Josh Hartnetts character in 40 Days and 40 Nights.
Dumped by the girl of his dreams, a sexpot named Nichole, Matt Sullivan (Hartnett) swears off sex for lent. For you heathens, lent is one of those kooky religious denial trips where you give up something important to you, in this case, for 40 days. But Sullivan doesnt just give up sex; he gives up ALL intimate contact, whether it be with his hand, or the lips of a beautiful woman. But of course, being a Hollywood super stud, incredibly hot women just cant seem to stop throwing themselves at him, making his temporary vow of celibacy that much harder to uphold. If thats not wacky enough for you, throw in some loser friends and a crazy betting pool on the Internet, just to spice it up a little.
Personally, I was rooting for the guy rooting for him to trip down the stairs or get hit on the head with some sort of falling anvil. Its a little hard to feel sorry for all these incredibly gorgeous people who have to wait a few days to get laid by super-models. Ive been waiting 25 years for my supermodel, and what do I have to show for it? Nothing. But maybe Im just bitter.
Ill cast aside for a moment my immense inferiority complex and try to look at this objectively. Hartnett is a boob. He proved it in Pearl Harbor and he proves it again here. In all honesty, there are quite a few funny moments in this immensely overwrought film. None of them are due to ANYTHING Hartnett does. Any trained hunky monkey boy could have filled his shoes. He mostly just stands there looking cute. Attempts to seem sexually frustrated only serve to make him cuter. Aw poor guy, these girls want a threesome with him. Aw, poor fella, to many women want to have sex with him. Gee, I really hope he doesnt break his vow after all there would be NO CONSEQUENCES AT ALL FOR HIM DOING SO.
But then theres the bitch er, his love interest, Erica played by Shannyn Sossamon. She makes it all worthwhile doesnt she? Sure, if you go into the manipulative psycho hose bag type. Her only real redeeming quality is that shes hot. Strangely enough, she plays exactly the same manipulative devil model that she played in last years psuedo-period piece A Knights Tale. Perhaps its not really an act.
I did in a sense enjoy Matts wacky friends. They at least provide a welcome reverie from the day-to-day grind of Matts sexually charged existence. And as I said before, there are a few funny gags, mostly involving inappropriate erections. But the plot isnt exactly water tight, and the leads arent particularly talented at what they are doing, which I assume is supposed to be some sort of acting.
I suppose 40 Days and 40 Nights is good for a few laughs. Those of you who live the Hartnett hot babe a minute lifestyle will especially get a nice kick out of it. For those of us who dont, 40 days without supermodel sex is called LIFE.

By now you may have heard that television reporter Serene Branson suffered a migraine on national television. As a longtime migraine sufferer, I can't bring myself to watch the video that has spewed some of the most hateful comments I have seen on the Internet in years. Like Serene, I suffer paralysis and slurred speech when I have a severe migraine along with nausea and dizziness. I also have a strong aversion to light and sound, which means that I have to sit in a dark, quiet room for hours until my migraine subsides. The saddest part of this so-called viral video is that so many people think it's a laughing matter. Sometimes I wonder if the reaction to Serene's migraines is simply because she is a woman. If it were an older white man, would people have reacted the same way?
- She didn't have a migraine. Obviously, it was fake. (Yes, I'm sure her hobbies include faking paralysis and faking slurred speech on live television.)
- She is making it up. (And I assume her doctors made this up as well?)
- She had a migraine because she is blond. (So if she was a brunette, it wouldn't be a migraine?)
- She said gibberrish because she's a journalist and everything journalists say is gibberish. (So, if she were a neurosurgeon, what she said wouldn't be gibberish because nothing a neurosurgeon says is gibberish?)
If you suffer from migraines, please do not read the comments on any site. Some are insightful, but more are heartbreaking and prove that people don't know the difference between migraines as opposed to common headaches that can be cured with over-the-counter medication. My mom still doesn't understand the difference, despite the fact that I along with my dad and several cousins suffer from migraines. (Also, you should buy The Migraine Brain as soon as humanly possible, if you don't own it already. This book makes me want to drive to Boston, show up at Carolyn's office, and curl up on her couch like a baby.)
Although I still haven't watched the video, I've noticed that a lot of commenters have compared what they say to a stroke. I can't be entirely sure, but I can't imagine people doubting that she would have a stroke. So why do they doubt that she would have a migraine? Is it simply the age old tale that we are afraid of what we don't understand? Strokes are familiar. Migraines are not. They require visits to neurologists, a type of doctor I didn't even know existed until after I had my first migraine and the emergency room doctor suggested I get one as soon as possible. (Yes, severe migraines can lead to emergency room visits.) Or is it simply the age old tale of it being easy to ridicule women from the anonymity of your own computer? What do you think?

The new embassy was designed by LAVA, with partners Will O'Rourke and The Glue Society, as a fusion of a whale, a rocket and a time tunnel, an immersive space of oscillating plywood ribs brought to life by red planet light and sound projections. The plywood ribs create shelves, seats, benches, storage, counters and displays and continue as strips on the floor, forming space, structure and ornament at the same time.

Cheap, dull, unattractive and unpleasant spaces – that's the reputation of school 'relocatables'.
They're the decades old, utilitarian solution to changing school demographics, remote community needs and disasters such as fires, floods and cyclones.
But a new plan by the Laboratory For Visionary Architecture [LAVA] turns these unpleasant spaces into smart buildings, the design an education in itself. In sustainability, social interaction, nature and adaptive technology. Chris Bosse, Asia Pacific director of LAVA says: 'we wanted to turn this idea upside down and create spaces that are sustainable, practical, costeffective whilst fun and exciting to be in'.
The sustainable design includes a modular façade system that is manually operable, flexible for light and shade, enclosed space or open space, bringing the outside in or the inside out. Using eco-materials it is low cost, low carbon, with off-site prefabrication allowing responsive assembly, with small lightweight, easily transportable modular elements.
This cellular 'space for learning' strengthens the connection between mankind, nature and technology. 'Three-axis' geometry allows the interlocking of each module to form large groups with smaller learning clusters. This results in the building itself learning how to adapt to future methods of learning and future modes of operation.
The future classroom adapts to multiple sites, unusual configurations and different climates and topographies through a simple telescopic system of posts integrating the classroom into the landscape.
The concept received a commendation in the Australian Future Proofing School competition to future proof relocatable learning spaces. The aim of the ideas competition was to produce effective spaces for 21st century learning that are sustainable, integrate with the landscape and connect with the school environment, suitable for prefabrication and mass customisation.

LAVA's reinterpretation of an existing youth hostel has resulted in a completely new type of space. The transformation of the youth hostel is underway. The design is all about the individuality of spaces – LAVA achieved this by the clever reorganisation of the existing volume resulting in different types of bedrooms.

Disaster strikes. How can architects help quickly, efficiently, sustainably and sensitively? The solution by LAVA is an origami cave. It features in a new exhibition in Sydney. The Digital Origami Emergency Shelter is a concept by LAVA for an inhabited molecule. The design is based on a water-molecule, referencing the Japanese Metabolist movement`s idea of prefabricated capsules as living space.

Origami Tigers
Sydney's Digital Origami Tigers to Tour USA Two giant Digital Origami Tigers from Australia are on a USA tour as part of G'Day USA.
The Digital Origami Tigers will be centre stage at the San Francisco Zoo from 17 Jan to 12 Feb 2011. They will then charge off to Dallas, Chicago, New York City, and Washington, D.C.
The big cats have been on a World Wildlife Fund [WWF] global tour to raise awareness about the endangered status of tigers. Less than 3200 tigers remain in the wild.

Chris Bosse of Laboratory for Visionary Architecture [LAVA] has created a window installation for the famous Italian department store la Rinascente for its Contemporary Christmas Art windows.
LAVA's window installation is an origami coral reef using 1500 recycled and recyclable cardboard molecules that explores the intelligence of natural and architectural systems.
The sculpture plays with space by climbing up walls and arching over to create coral caves. Based on the geometrical structures of sea foam and corals, the colourful reef comes to life through dynamic lighting and sound.
Bosse, director of multinational LAVA, is one of seven designers from around the world to be commissioned to create a window – others are Kirsten Hassenfeld, Gyngy Laky, Andrea Mastrovito, Satsuki Oishi, Richard Sweeney, Margherita Marchioni and Tjep.
The store windows are at la Rinascente's Piazza Duomo store, in the centre of Milan, design capital of the world. This is the first time la Rinascente have commissioned artists to do Christmas windows.
The installation shows how a particular module, copied from nature, can generate architectural space, and how the intelligence of the smallest unit dictates the intelligence of the overall system.
Ecosystems such as coral reefs act as a metaphor for an architecture where the individual components interact in symbiosis to create an environment.
Bosse says: "In urban terms, the smallest homes, the spaces they create, the energy they use, the heat and moisture they absorb, multiply into a bigger organisational system, whose sustainabilty depends on their intelligence".
Current trends in parametric modeling, digital fabrication and material-science were applied to the space-filling installation.

The Situation Suing Because He Wasn't Paid For Not Wearing Abercrombie
By Mack Rawden 5 years ago
A little more than three months ago, clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch released a hilarious statement in which it offered to pay Mike The Situation Sorrentino money not to wear its clothing. The goofy and public slap in the face was widely considered a publicity stunt at the time, especially given the company had already made money off Fituation and GTL shirts, but now the joke could end up costing the mall staple a whole lot of money.
The Jersey Shore star filed a lawsuit in federal court this morning claiming Abercrombie & Fitch never offered himself or other cast members of the reality show any money to not wear its merchandise. Because the company failed to follow through, it essentially generated free publicity by invoking his name, and according to MSNBC, Sorrentino thinks he should be paid for that usage of his image and likeness.
Theres no word on exactly how much the Situation thinks he should be entitled to, but as lawsuits go, his case is actually reasonable. In the paperwork his attorney filed, the litigator pointed out Abercrombies prior uses or plays on his clients name and favorite phrase, both of which have been copyrighted.
Abercrombie & Fitchs marketing ploy was clever and funny. It specifically catered to a demographic that watches Jersey Shore but may not think of themselves as being the same as The Situation. Thats a home run for advertising, but the companys inability to actually offer the star money as per the contract they publicly cited was a terrible lapse in judgment.

Denton, TX (Sports Network) - Brandin Byrd picked up 109 yards and a touchdown
on the ground as the North Texas Mean Green rode a second-half surge to a
24-14 win over the South Alabama Jaguars during a Sun Belt Conference game at
Mean Green Stadium.
Jeremy Brown added 61 yards and a touchdown of his own for North Texas (4-6,
3-3 Sun Belt) which had lost back-to-back games. Derek Thompson completed only
12-of-28 pass attempts for 106 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
Ross Metheny completed 23-of-45 pass attempts for 233 yards and a touchdown
for South Alabama (2-8, 1-5). Jereme Jones brought in five of those passes for
a game-high 72 yards and a touchdown. Kendall Houston led the Jaguars on the
ground with 42 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries.
Houston scored on a one-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter to
take a 7-0 lead. The score finished off a 13-play, 90-yard drive that lasted
almost five minutes.
North Texas' first score came much more rapidly with Brown scoring on a
51-yard touchdown run at the beginning of the second quarter. The score
finished off a drive that lasted only two plays.
Metheny pushed South Alabama back ahead, 14-7, with a 13-yard touchdown pass
to Jones.
Just before the half North Texas tied the game on a two-yard touchdown pass
from Thompson to Drew Miller.
Michael Chapuseaux missed a 28-yard field goal on South Alabama's first
possession of the second half.
On the second play of the next drive North Texas struck when Byrd scored on
an 85-yard touchdown run.
Zach Olen added a 33-yard field goal later in the quarter to push North Texas
to a 24-14 advantage.
With neither team able to score the rest of the way the Mean Green managed to
come away with the win.
South Alabama lost despite having twice as many first down as North Texas
(24-12) and a 366-303 edge in total yards.

Published 17/01/2013 12:00
O'Driscoll has been in good form since returning to action after a knee injury and the 34-year-old's international career is by no means over, but Heaslip has been given the nod to skipper the side.
The decision by Kidney comes after the Leinster vice-captain stepped up to the mark to captain Ireland during the Autumn Internationals.
Ulster captain Chris Henry - who has been named in the extended 39-man squad ahead of next weekend's Wolfhounds game and the 6 Nations opener against Wales - thinks it's the right choice.
Having played for Ireland under the captaincy of both players, he told UTV: "I think Jamie did a great job in November, he rallied us well.
"He did a really good job, so I think it is probably the right decision ..."
Henry added: "Brian obviously had his injuries - he just needs to focus on getting back out on the pitch and playing rugby, so it takes a bit pressure of him too.
"And Jamie, I think he is the right man for it at the moment."
Henry is just one of 11 Ulster players named in the squad.
Lewis Stevenson gets his first call up at international level and Paul Marshall and Darren Cave are among the backs once again.
But first up for Ulster, they're looking for their first win in France this weekend against Castres to secure a home quarter-final in the Heineken Cup.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends reading and singing out loud to babies from birth, every day.
A press release says there is a new collaborative effort of Too Small to Fail, the American Academy of Pediatrics, Scholastic Inc. and Reach Out and Read to raise awareness among parents about early language development. The goal is to ensure that parents, doctors, and caregivers have the information and tools they need to promote early literacy and vocabulary development.
Reading with young children is a joyful way to build strong and healthy parent-child relationships, to foster early language skills and to promote children's development," said James M. Perrin, MD, FAAP, President of the AAP. "Yet, fewer than half of children younger than five years old are read to daily in our country. Pediatricians are taking a stand to spread the news more widely -- that early shared reading is both fun and rewarding. The benefits are so compelling, that encouraging reading at young children's check-ups has become an essential component of our care."
To help raise awareness:
- Too Small to Fail and the APP, an organization with 62,000 pediatricians, will inform parents and caregivers across their networks and media platforms.
- Scholastic has donated 500,000 new books through the Read Out and Read organization.
According to APP, researchers have found that by age four, children in poverty hear 30 million fewer words than their higher-income peers.
The collaboration announcement was made at the fourth annual Clinton Global Initiative America meeting.

A Must Read - Share
ROME (AP) — Amanda Knox's ex-boyfriend says the American student provided alibis for him that he hopes will persuade Italy's top criminal court to overturn his conviction for the 2007 murder of her British roommate.
Raffaele Sollecito told reporters Tuesday in Rome that the Florence appeals court which convicted both of them in January cited a memo that Knox wrote saying he wasn't involved in Meredith Kercher's murder.

My LO one is 4 months and was having the same problem. At first, our pediatrician chalked it up as a normal baby rash..? We had tried using olive oil and slathering him in lotion. We finally took him in when it wasn't getting any better. Turned out being allergies and dry skin. She prescribed a cream and an antihistamine for him, and within 5 days, he was back to baby smooth skin! :)posted 04/24/2011 by casara.butler
My daughter has the same condition too. She have a really dry skin when she was 4 months old. One of my friend told me that the secret to dry skin is keeping it hydrated. Each doctor and specialist said it was eczema and they were prescribed the same thing: hydrocortisone cream. The cream would help some areas, but doctors didn't recommended using it often or over Julia's full body because of its high potency. When I was breastfeeding Julia, I changed my diet to provide more nutritious milk. I ate more berries and dark greens to pass useful anti-inflammatory elements on to her. I also took a teaspoon of fish oil each day to improve Julia's skin moisture levels and decrease inflammation. But then she still have eczema. Completely frustrated, I began doing my own research. I found this book from http://pregnancyhours.com/childeczema by sheer accident. After reading it, I feel like I understand what triggers my daughter's eczema and most importantly how to help her feel better.posted 03/05/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
