Winning Solitaire?
Most games are lost, but I can usually eke out a win in about 20-30 minutes of playing. However, just today I probably lost 30+ games in a row over maybe 2 hours. Still no win so far today. I have to be careful, because I get in a habit of quickly hitting "deal" instantly after a loss (my "hit", if you will), and after an extended time by hand starts to go numb and I start making terrible mistakes because my eyesight starts getting all wonky. (Is it fun? No, I feel a vague sense of irritation the whole time I'm playing, until I actually win and can finally close the application. Hopefully.)
So this brings up the question: What percentage of games should you be able to win? Obviously I don't know, but my intuition says around ~20% or so maximum. I'm also entertaining the idea of building a robot solver, improving its play, and seeing what fraction of games it can win. Apparently this an actually outstanding research problem; Professor Yan at MIT wrote that this is in fact "one of the embarrassments of applied mathematics" in 2005.
The other thing is that all of the work done on the problem apparently uses some astoundingly variant definitions for the game. First, the "solvers" that I see are all based on the variant game of "Thoughtful Solitaire", apparently preferred by mathematicians because it gives you full information (i.e., known location of all cards), and are therefore encouraged to spend hours of time considering just a few moves at a time (gads, save me from these frickin' mathematicians like that! Deal with real-world incomplete information, for god's sake!).
Secondly, they use the results from this "Thoughtful Solitaire" (full information, recall; claiming 82% to 91% success rate) simultaneously for the percentage of regular Solitaire games that are "solvable". But this meaning of "solvable" is only a hypothetical solution rate for an all-knowing player; that is, there are many moves during a regular game of Solitaire that lead to dead-ends, that can only be avoided by sheer luck, for the non-omniscient player. If they're careful the researchers correctly call this an "upper bound on the solution rate of regular Solitaire" (and my intuition tells me that it's a very distant bound); if they're really, really sloppy then they use the phrases "odds of winning" and "percent solvable" interchangably (when they're not remotely the same thing).
So currently we're completely in the dark about what the success rate of the best (non-omniscient) player would be in regular Solitaire. I'll still conjecture that it's got to be under 50%.

I would have kind of thought that the odds of winning Klondike would be calculable and known (hence it being "one of the embarrassments of applied mathematics"). On the other hand, 52! Is pretty damn big.ReplyDelete
BTW, losing 30+ games in a row's got to suck. But if it only took 2 hours, that's an improvement over losing a couple games of StarCraft and *still* not getting that fix. Not that I know anyone who's been susceptible to that.
Ha! Indeed.ReplyDelete
I can see that one of the problems with Solitaire is that, in addition to the 52! possible shuffles, you also have to account for (a) the hidden information, and more keenly, (b) what is the "best" strategy?
I could imagine an tree-searching system where, at every possible move, it maps out every possible hidden card-lay and maps out the most-likely "best" move (starting from 45! and working your way down each move), but that would take a good bit of processing power.
I've been tracking my 3-card solitaire hands by batches of 100 hands. (NB: I have limited recall of the last two moves, so I can peek at a hidden card).ReplyDelete
Result: my average for 2000 hands is 37.6% wins and 39.2% for the last 500 (i feel like my insights are improving ;-) )
Best streak is 7 wins in a row, and worst is 13 losses in a row. Happy to share more data.Replies
Thanks for the info! Although I must say that being able to peek at a card makes for a very different game, that's really a lot of info to take advantage of. And I don't know how many draw-cards/passes you're playing with?Delete
I've got a computerized solver written (no peeking) that gets 7.4% wins for draw-3/pass-3, or 52.9% for draw-1/pass-infinite, I keep meaning to write that up at some point.
I put together a C++ program to try and figure out what the odds are. My version has infinite number of go rounds on the play stack (no limit of three re-deals). The results are about one win in 5.4 games played. The statistical set was millions of games played. This past weekend, I modified the program to try and solve deals. I have a very small sample set but it tentatively appears that about 50% of lost hands are solvable. This is very small statistical set mind you. The real problem is, when a deal isn't solvable, it's taking the program hours and millions of tries to figure that out. I'm going to try running on a computer with more power and multi-thread the whole thing. The task is still monumental and will require lots of computing time to build up a decent statistical set. There's also the business of random number generation for dealing decks. I'm using STL mersenne_twister and a real hardware generator will eventually be needed. I also need to improve the performance. It uses STL and I wasn't trying to make it fast, just thorough.ReplyDelete
All of these results will be rendered moot when someone finds a bug in my program. I put some statistics and the source code here if it interests you:
I've been using "F2" at the initial deal to abandon a deal before I play, this does not impact my score, and I only play hands where I can uncover at least 3 covered cards. I have even been using the "undo" when faced with 2 possible choices for uncovering another card. Even doing this I'm only able to keep my win percentage at about 8%. My take is Microsoft Solitaire is not worth playing because it simply is not using fair randomness. Whether this is from lazy programmers or they're simply being jerks I cannot say, but I can say my win average should be higher given my selectiveness with playing. It's no fun playing a game where the odds of winning are so heavily stacked against you.ReplyDeleteReplies
I used to do as you and reject games that have no opportunity to "reveal" on startup. But, over time and out of curiosity, I found that it really made no difference in my overall win percentage. I have been playing solitaire for as long as I have had a computer and I reset after about 5000 games since beyond that it is nearly impossible to improve. I have declined from 27% 10 years ago to 22-23% now (age, 70 yrs.,not MS solitaire is likely the issue.. I find that the reset helps to prove new strategies and steps that I develop as I go.Delete
Gary, what parameters are you playing with (draw one/three, standard scoring)?Delete
I have played 2987 hands over a 3 year period and have won 614 times for a win percentage of 20.5%. My high score is 8907 after winning a hand in 87 seconds. How does this stack up to you others out there?ReplyDeleteReplies
I found that the game changed under Windows 7 from XP. I was able to get higher scores with XP.Delete
Below are some combinations of score/time (Maybe someone knows the algorithm for score? I have had different scores with the same time, so #moves must also be in there somewhere)
Here's what it says in the Win7 Help page -- "Under Standard scoring, you receive five points for moving a card from the deck to a column, and 10 points for each card added to a Home stack. If a game takes more than 30 seconds, you also receive bonus points based on the time it takes to finish. The bonus formula: 700,000 divided by total game time in seconds. Thus, the highest possible Standard score is 24,113!"Delete
I don't think that formula has changed between versions. Note that if you move from deck -> home directly (+10) you get less points than if you go deck -> column -> home (+15). That's about all I know, as personally I play by Vegas scoring myself.
I have played 2679 and won 1751. I can not get past 63% though, and even though I have started afresh on other machines the win percentage always seems to hover around 63%....ReplyDelete
You might like http://www.solitairecraving.com/. There, the games are "solvable", in the sense that a solution exists. You get to replay the game until you solve it. It seems to me that's preferable to losing freshly dealt games because you've made a wrong move.ReplyDelete
I have noticed that MS Solitaire on my computer has all of twenty different ways to deal the cards, and the only randomness in the dealing is which one it chooses; I have seen it deal the same way three times in five games before. I've played the game so many times I've started to accidentally memorize which moves to and don't work for each configuration. My win percentage is 30%, out of almost 6k games played. Current win streak is seven games, and I haven't broken that streak yet.ReplyDeleteReplies
That is super-weird, and not something I've ever seen. What version of Windows are you on?Delete
even dealing 1 at a time instead of 3 my estimate is 42%ReplyDeleteReplies
That's pretty reasonable. I've got a computer simulator that for draw-1-infinite-pass wins 53% of the time. For other game parameters the rate is much lower.Delete
I play about a thousand games a year and I currently have a win percentage of 37%, 3-card deal, standard scoring. I do tend to hit undo a lot, I'm pretty meticulous about trying all promising branches and like to think I only miss a few winable games. Anyone know what percentage I miss?ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm pretty sure that playing with arbitrary "undo"s is equivalent to the "Thoughtful Solitaire" game where the CS researchers claim an 82-91%win rate. You might want to consider downloading a "Thoughtful Solitaire" program (all cards visible) if that's the game you like to play?Delete
Most of the time I'm like everybody else... can go two hours without winning. But several times each year I win three in a row, and once I won five in a row. What's that... Divine interference? Anybody else?ReplyDeleteReplies
As a professional mathematician, I refer to that as "random numbers f*ing with your head". It's probabilistically almost certain to happen if you play enough games.Delete
Aristotle in The Rhetoric wrote: "One might perchance say this was probable -- That things improbable oft will hap to men.... For what is improbable does happen, and therefore it is probable that improbable things will happen. Granted this, one might argue that 'what is improbable is probable'."Delete

BlackDiesel Fucked Me!
July 15th, 2009
Cassie Blanca's never been fucked by a dick like the one Shane Diesel's got, 10 inches by 8 inches in circumference. Most women can barely get their mouths around it and suck more than a few inches. It's just too fuckin' big. Over at Scoreland.com, German porn star Annina tangled with Diesel and she couldn't get it down her throat either. After some tit-chat with XL Girls' master of ceremonies, who's refereeing this match, the action begins. Diesel trains Cassie in how he likes his cock sucked and stroked. He licks Cassie's cunt to wet it up, then turns her on her knees, ass up, and impales her to the root. Her face is buried in the sofa cushion as Diesel goes about his work, pounding his ten inches into her. Cassie can take it all in her pussy! Her first big, black cock is the monster python of Shane Diesel. She sure didn't start off the easy way! Diesel has her sit on it in a reverse-cowgirl before stuffing her sideways. Again, she takes all of his shaft in her snatch. She asks for his cum and he obliges, dismounting and shooting a load on her 30 pound 44G tits. As Cassie holds up her dripping sucklers, pleased with herself and rightly so, she's asked by the master of ceremonies if she'll fuck more black dudes in the future. You could pretty much bet on it after this encounter. And Diesel has no complaints either after boring into her cunt like a drill.

A homicide victim whose body was discovered in Texas more than 30 years ago has been identified through DNA as a New London girl who went missing in 1982.
Michelle Garvey, 14, was last seen on June 1, 1982, and was believed to have run away from home, possibly traveling to North Carolina or New Jersey state, police said.
Connecticut State police spokesman Lt. J. Paul Vance, in a statement released Friday, said the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children contacted the state police Missing Person Unit and requested assistance in a criminal investigation.
It turns out that Garvey's body, at the time still unidentified, was found in an open field in Houston on Aug. 1, 1982. Her death was ruled a homicide.
Vance said that without any knowledge of the Connecticut investigation, Texas officials had exhumed the unidentified body in an effort to obtain DNA samples. Connecticut state police detectives met with Garvey's family members where DNA samples were taken and submitted to the University of North Texas in Fort Worth, Texas, where they made a positive identification of Michelle Garvey.
Garvey's family has been notified of the identification and efforts are being made to have the deceased returned to Connecticut for burial, Vance said.
Vance said investigation by the state police Missing Person Unit continues.

Breaking Ground: The Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe and the Unearthing of Tse-Whit-Zen Village (Capell Family Book)by Lynda V. Mapes
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In 2003, a backhoe operator hired by the state of Washington to work on the Port Angeles waterfront discovered what a larger world would soon learn. The place chosen to dig a massive dry dock was atop one of the largest and oldest Indian village sites ever found in the region. Yet the state continued its project, disturbing hundreds of burials and unearthing more than 10,000 artifacts at Tse-whit-zen village, the heart of the long-buried homeland of the Klallam people.
Excitement at the archaeological find of a generation gave way to anguish as tribal members working alongside state construction workers encountered more and more human remains, including many intact burials. Finally, tribal members said the words that stopped the project: "Enough is enough."
Soon after, Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe chairwoman Frances Charles asked the state to walk away from more than $70 million in public money already spent on the project and find a new site. The state, in an unprecedented and controversial decision that reverberated around the nation, agreed.
In search of the story behind the story, Seattle Times reporter Lynda V. Mapes spent more than a year interviewing tribal members, archaeologists, historians, city and state officials, and local residents and business leaders. Her account begins with the history of Tse-whit-zen village, and the nineteenth- and twentieth-century impacts of contact, forced assimilation, and industrialization. She then engages all the voices involved in the dry dock controversy to explore how the site was chosen, and how the decisions were made first to proceed and then to abandon the project, as well as the aftermath and implications of those controversial choices.
This beautifully crafted and compassionate account, illustrated with nearly 100 photographs, illuminates the collective amnesia that led to the choice of the Port Angeles construction site. "You have to know your past in order to build your future," Charles says, recounting the words of tribal elders. Breaking Ground takes that teaching to heart, demonstrating that the lessons of Tse-whit-zen are teachings from which we all may benefit.
Lynda V. Mapes is an award-winning journalist with a twenty-year career in newspaper reporting, much of it with the Seattle Times. She is the author of Washington: The Spirit of the Land.
"Compelling, moving, inspirational, and profound. This is a captivating human interest story brought to life by a fascinating historical subplot, juxtaposed with a modern tragedy." - CHiXapkaid (Michael Pavel), Skokomish, Traditional Bearer of Southern Puget Salish cultures
"A wonderful project . . . both because of the author's passion and accessible style and her attention to critical issues of ethics and relationship-building. A significant contribution to the region and to scholarship more broadly." - Coll Thrush, author of Native Seattle

CHICAGO (AP) -- Jake Peavy pitched into the eighth inning and the Chicago White Sox beat Justin Verlander and Detroit 7-4 Thursday as the Tigers again played minus Miguel Cabrera.
Cabrera missed his third straight game because of an injured left hip flexor. The AL MVP left in the middle of Monday's game.
Torii Hunter homered for the third time time in the series. But the Tigers outfielder exited in the eighth and is day to day with a sore left Achilles.

Ooops, I forgot to post a reminder about todays Mayor's Bicycle Advisory Council meeting. The next one is September 12th so consider yourself reminded.
You're lucky that a lazy Summer affords me the opportunity to attend on your behalf and relay all the relevant details that I was able to take in short hand, well, those that are still legible a couple hours after the fact that is. Must replace this darned disappearing ink pen.
The first speaker today was Luann Hamilton who gave us a brief explanation of the new system under which the meetings will be conducted. I got a harsh lesson in this early in the meeting when I was asked to move from the usual spot I sit at so some newbie board members could get me cushy VIP seat. I've got 99 problems. Basically now the MBAC meetings are mostly catered to the board members like they used to be in the early 90s. Citizens are still welcome to attend but our meandering Q&A period has been significantly curtailed. One used to be able to ask questions while speakers were presenting and throughout the meeting but now Q&A from non-board members is limited to whatever time remains at the end of the meeting. Next time around I will have to remember to write down questions as members present since by the time the allotted time for questions rolled around I'd already forgotten any that I was storing in my limited capacity cranial spaces.
Since most people seemed to have the same problem I did, the meeting wrapped up on time for the first time in the 2 years I've been attending. So, there's something to be said for efficiency.
The next speaker was CDOTs Mike Amsden who's helming the Streets for Cycling 2020 project. Most of what he spoke on at today's meeting I already covered with my last SfC post so here are a few new bits of info:
So far 6.5 miles of protected bike lanes (PBL) are under construction or completed. 30+ miles are currently in the design phase and will break ground this construction season. The goal is still a lofty 100 miles of PBLs by 2015.
A bike count was taken during this morning's commute on Milwaukee at Elston and the data collectors charted more than 1,000 cyclists in a two hour period. I think that is only those headed toward the loop, so those figures are pretty impressive.
The current leader for the 'bicycle superhighways' moniker is 'spoke lines' which I called as the obviously least embarrassing name in the last SfC post. I mean, four-star bike routes? Boooooring.
Tonight is the last webinar for community members to provide input on the plan so CDOT is about 90% complete. The next steps will be finalizing the plan, prioritizing projects and obtaining additional funding sources. The plan should be publicly released in August or September.
Next Carlin (with CDOT) spoke in place of Chris Gagnon about bike parking. She went about ten thousand miles a minute. Here's what my chicken scratch says:
They've hired a new intern to help with bike parking installation field work. There will be 500 new rack installations this summer. The on-street corral at Wicker Park's 6 corners was reinstalled this spring. Two other locations in the city will receive on-street corrals this summer. They will be located in Pilsen and Andersonville but exact streets weren't announced. I assume they'll be somewhere on 18th near Ashland in Pilsen and on Clark between Foster and Summerdale in Andersonville.
Next up Charlie Short spoke about the Bicycle Ambassadors program. This year they've extended their season to ticket you for running red lights, erm, maintain law and order and protect you from yourself. They'll now be working March through October. Their targeted enforcement focuses on "high crash locations". They'll also be partnering with aldermen in 16 wards to offer more light giveaways this season.
Finally, Luann Hamilton spoke again about the Green Lane project that was awarded to Chicago a few weeks ago. Six cities were selected to participate nationally including Austin, Memphis, Portland, San Francisco and DC. The plan focuses on bringing innovative bicycle facilities to cities that the organizes believed could more forward by leaps and bounds within two years. These facilities include PBLs, buffered bike lanes, intersection improvements and painted lanes (like the green lanes that have been popping up sporadically). The goal of the project is to learn more about the impact of these new facilities and identify obstacles to innovative design. As part of the project, Scott Kubly (CDOT), Ben Gomberg (CDOT), Ald. Pawar (47th Ward) and others are currently in a investigative tour of Copenhagen. Ah, to be saddled with the hardships of that gig.
At this point board members were given an opportunity to ask any questions. Ron Burke from Active Trans chose to convey his excitement for the future of transportation cycling in Chicago by saying that cycling used to be treated as merely recreation but progressive cities across the globe have picked up the torch and turned their locales from abysmal bicycle mode share numbers to success stories in a few short years. He cited Laon, France as an example. By adding PBLs and a bike share program their mode share went from 1% to 6-7% in a matter of three years. He believes that Chicago is on their way toward this model.
Another board member asked about the process of quantifying a perceived increase in cycling and how this could be accomplished. Mike Amsden said that they currently perform bike count assessments before and after new facilities are built but that bike counter boxes roadside would streamline the process and divert CDOT employees away from time intensive counting. Another participant suggested modifying the speed/red light cameras that are ubiquitous in Chicago for this purpose.
And now a sad one, Alex Wilson from West Town Bikes inquired about the status of the much touted bike share program. Apparently despite having all their funding lined up from the CMAQ and TIGER grants, the program ran into permitting snafus and now will not be able to launch this year. This will hopefully not jeopardize any of the current grant funding and all 4,000 planned stations should roll out next spring.
On a more positive note, as part of the downtown bus rapid transit project, Randolph and Washington through the loop will now receive PBLs on at least some part of their length. Hurrah.
Steven Vance then asked about the status of the current IDOT debacle preventing the completion of the Jackson protected lane from Ogden to Halsted. Mike Amsden announced that the concerns raised by IDOT were valid though he didn't elaborate as to what those were. He said that the process was coming along and that he expected that project to be completed within the next two months.
That's basically it for relevant/newish info. See you in room 1103 of City Hall at 3pm on September 12th for the next action-packed MBAC.

By Cecil G. Brumley
Some of the high-tech happenings in Volusia County aren't easy to explain without an advanced engineering degree.
For example, here's a new product item for something that will be used in DeLeon Springs of all places.
"Sparton Corp. will feature AHRS-8, a highly advanced inertial sensor that enhances a best-in-class product line at the Society of Exploration Geophysicists Annual Meeting, booth No. 400, Nov. 4-9, in Las Vegas. The AHRS-8 is a MEMS-based (micro electro-mechanical systems) attitude heading reference system."
Or how about this from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
"Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and Advanced Aerospace Solutions announced the signing of a research and development agreement to take a long-standing relationship of innovative, world-class research and development to the next level."
Hard to believe all of this is happening in a county known more as a beach resort area, but it also shows how critical it is for Florida to produce college graduates comfortable with technology.
The ERAU news points to the school's ongoing pursuit of becoming one of the world's leading research institute's and developing a technology park for businesses who want to use that research. Yes, Volusians, your county is becoming more of a home to high-tech pursuits to go along with the beach bums looking for great weather and a big wave.
Downtown Beach Street in Daytona continues to look like it could become a great dining and entertainment destination. While businesses still come and go, new ones seem to be in the majority right now. The former Sick Boys Lounge could become the Tosca Café. Work continues on Zappi's, which is going in the former Courtyard on Beach. Anne M. Sammaritano wants to open something called the White House restaurant at 116 N. Beach St. Yes, that's the site of the former Love Bar. If that stretch of North Beach Street could come alive again, it would go a long way to making the entire stretch from Fairview Avenue to Orange Avenue a place to enjoy. Now, if the city government could just do something about the panhandlers who keep running other businesses off.
In other restaurant news, New Smyrna Beach could get a second Beef O'Brady's. Wilton Simpson, who will soon become state Sen. Simpson, R-Trilby, has bought the old restaurant building at 1610 S. Dixie Freeway and is working with the Beef's franchisee that owns the sports bar and grill in New Smyrna Beach Regional Shopping Center on West State Road 44.
Also, the Burger King at Dirksen Drive and Sunrise Boulevard, just off the Interstate 4 interchange in DeBary, is getting remodeled, probably the first in Volusia area as Central Florida's newest BK franchisee Magic Burgers LLC of Irving, Texas, plans to remodel 60 of its Florida BKs.
There had been some rumblings that Space Coast Credit Union wanted to build a big stand-alone office in Port Orange like the one it has in Daytona Beach. Well, it will be at Altamira Village. Melbourne-based SCCU just bought the land between the car wash and the new strip center fronting Dunlawton Avenue. The credit union paid $1.112 million to the Altamira developers for the property.
Buddy Budiansky and Ron Frederick, commercial real estate agents with Prudential Commercial real Estate FL, have been busy. They represented sellers Robert and Judith Taylor in a deal for a retail building with 1,766 square feet at 223 Magnolia Ave. Thongrain and Kimberly Kamchan, owners of Thai restaurant Zen Bistro, bought it to move their restaurant there. They were represented by Ditha Sanders with City Realty Co. The partners sold a 4,479 square foot retail property at 518 and 520 Seabreeze Blvd. for $177,500, negotiating the deal for Sandra and Patrick Kollar. The buyer, Seabreeze Market LLC, was represented by Ray Toutounchian of Daytona Beach Realty. They brokered two land sales on the beachside - at 728 S Atlantic Ave. they represented John and Teri Sutton in selling the 7,500-square-foot property for $65,000. The buyer, Funcoast Realty and Management LLC, was represented by owner Jon Zolsky, who plans to construct an office building there. Land at 700 S. Atlantic Ave. was sold to The Ramesh Family LP. The 22,110-square-foot property sold for $165,000 and will be used to build vacation rentals. Outside of Daytona Beach, they brokered a lease at Stonework Business Park, 1725 S. Nova Road, South Daytona. Unit C-5 at the Business Park was leased to tenants Mark Rice and Daniel Mounts. The Team represented the property owner, RWF Properties, and the tenants.

Statement as issued Wednesday by state officials:
INDIANAPOLIS – High temperatures and humidity have returned to Indiana. The Indiana Department of Homeland Security and EMS professionals remind Hoosiers to be cautious outside and try to limit exposure to the heat.
According to the National Weather Service, heat causes more deaths in the United States per year than floods, lightning, tornadoes and hurricanes.
Heat-related illnesses can happen quickly and be deadly. The elderly, very young and those with respiratory conditions are most susceptible to serious heat-related illnesses. Take frequent breaks during outdoor activities, and drink plenty of fluids (nothing carbonated). When appropriate, check in regularly with family members and neighbors who may not have air conditioning.
Never leave a child or pet in a parked car. The temperature inside a parked vehicle can rapidly rise to dangerous levels.
Symptoms of Heat-Related Illness
- Muscle cramps
- Body temperature more than 102°F
- Flushed looking appearance
- Nausea and vomiting
- Weakness
- Fatigue
- Faint feeling
- Diarrhea
- Headaches
- Unresponsiveness
- Seizures

After whole year of relationship I still get flowers with no specific reason, like it happened today. I´m happy in a way that I have never been able to imagine. It´s not always all pinky, like between everyone, but at the end of the day I feel blessed. Blessed to walk through my life side by side with someone like Him.
Our trip to Poland was not the easiest one. Hospitals, my whole family and friends meeting (and judging…) the person I chose to be with. All of that put us in many not necessarily the most comfortable situations. We were struggling a lot but I feel like it made us stronger. He embraced all the awkwardness in the way I was praying He would. As an effect everyone fell in love with Him, same as I did over a year ago.
Even though I miss home incredibly, I know that staying here for now is the right thing to do. I know I belong with Him and He belongs with me.
We have enormous plans. Moving to another country, travels, following our dreams. And somehow deep in my heart I know that no matter what will happen, I won´t end up alone.
I just needed to let it out somewhere.

Watch: Emotional Cat Lady
This apparently is an eHarmony video bio for an insane cat lady. She tries to explain why you would want to date her, and she starts balling over cats. If this girl is serious she needs psychological evaluation. If she is faking… well she still won't be winning over any men this decade. [youtube]mTTwcCVajAc[/youtube] Doesn't […]

Common Knee Disorders
Traumatic injury to the knee
The knee, while relatively stable, can be injured in any number of ways, including during sports, a fall or a collision. The quick and unexpected twisting or reposition of the joint can damage the cartilage or ligaments. In many cases it is possible to repair this damage by repairing, restoring or replacing the cartilage.
The most common type of arthritis, osteoarthritis, generally develops from "wear and tear" of the cartilage and lubricating surfaces of the bones that connect at the joint. As we age, many of us will develop degenerative arthritis of one or more of our joints. This arthritis is characterized by destruction of the natural cushioning and lubricating surfaces of the joint and may be accompanied by bony overgrowth (bone spurs). In the most severe cases, all the cartilage can wear away and there will be bone-on-bone contact. These severe cases are more commonly treated with knee replacement rather than cartilage restoration.
Avascular necrosis
Characterized by localized bone death, avascular necrosis results from disruption of blood flow to the bone. The bone death may be painful and usually causes the bone to collapse, which can lead to joint destruction and arthritis. In some cases cartilage restoration techniques can be used to treat this disorder to avoid the need for knee replacement.
Rheumatoid (inflammatory) arthritis
An autoimmune disorder characterized by chronic inflammation of the affected joints, rheumatoid and inflammatory arthritis may involve multiple joints and can occur at any age. The inflammatory process of rheumatoid or inflammatory arthritis swells the cartilage, muscles, tendons and ligaments which can misshape the joints, erode the cartilage and eventually lead to destruction of bone. Most of these cases are candidates only for joint replacement when medical management fails.

Honda recalls over 320,000 vehicles worldwide for faulty door locks
Honda CR-V, Acura ILX models are affected.
According to a statement by American Honda, "Simultaneous operation of the driver's or passenger's inner door handle and either the manual or power door lock may result in the inner door handle release cable becoming partially disengaged." This malfunction means the door may not latch properly, or could cause the door to open unexpectedly.
No accidents or injuries stemming from the issue have been reported, according to Honda.
Affected owners should begin receiving letters from the manufacturer with instructions beginning in mid-August.
[Source: Detroit Free Press.]
#1 Ford, with 14
#2 Chrysler, with 9
#3 Nissan and Honda tied with 8
# 4 GM, with 7
#5 Toyota, with 6
The numbers are all so close it's pretty silly to be arguing about it but I do have to say that if you're going to call someone's products junkier than others based on this nonsense, wouldn't that award have to go to the first few spots on the list? Just saying, this argument is dumb enough without some calling one brand junk when the brand that they prefer has MORE recalls.

Dear Roze:
We are all told constantly to wash our hands as much as possible as one of the deterrents to getting the swine flu. So what do we ladies in the office do if there are a few men who don't wash their hands and then put their hands on the coffee pot and utensils when they get a cup of coffee? The men's room and the ladies room are next to each other and none of us ladies ever hear the water running in the men's room when certain persons occupy it and there is no antibacterial gel in the men's room. Any suggestions?
-Can't touch this in Suffolk
Dear Can't touch this in Suffolk:
I suggest that you meet with the person in your office responsible for hygiene issues. Explain that with the flu and swine flu season upon us, you want to do your part to prevent viruses from spreading throughout the office. Let him/her know that you and others are aware that some individuals are not washing/sanitizing their hands. Respectfully request that he/she remind everyone of the importance of clean hands and vaccinations at the next all-employee meeting; that signs reminding people to wash/sanitize their hands be strategically posted in the office's restrooms, kitchen(s), and other appropriate areas; and that antibacterial soap be available in these and other spaces as well. Show your initiative by presenting and offering to distribute information and post signs and educational flyers that either you create or obtain free of charge from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Website.
Dear Roze:
I've had the same employer for 29 years. I'm eligible and ready to retire, but still want to work since I'm only 52. I've received lots of interest in my experience, knowledge, and skills; but just left an interview feeling worthless. I had successful interviews with several people from the same company and passed its oral and written tests, but this last guy was the deciding official. He treated me as if I could bring little value to their organization since I only had my bachelors. Until meeting with him, I didn't know I needed more education. Regardless, his arrogance was uncalled for. I turned down their piddling offer. I don't have to work and won't tolerate that kind of treatment. He may have a lot of letters after his name, but he needs some schooling in treating people with respect. Thanks for letting me vent.
-Put off by arrogance in Virginia Beach
Dear Put off by arrogance in Virginia Beach:
Your email was disheartening. I am sorry you experienced such unprofessionalism. That said, obviously, having a higher education does not always make you smart. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do!
Dear Roze:
I'm a wealth advisor and managing director of an independent practice in N. VA. As everyone knows, this past year in my line of work has been crazy, but we're starting to see some improvement. For the past 15 years, I've worked the day after Thanksgiving, but I'm thinking about closing my four-man office this year. The market traditionally closes at 1:00 PM on this day. Your thoughts?
-To close or not to close
Dear To close or not to close:
You are smart to think and plan ahead. Given Thanksgiving's significance, the large number of people who typically take off the day after, and the fact that the market will only be open for half a day, your clients should be understanding and respectful if you decide to close, not to mention your family's happiness and appreciation. I have no doubt that you are always available to your clients. Send them a communication of the closing if you decide to do so, and encourage them to contact you or your associates with any questions or concerns they want responses to before the holiday.

Radio Review: Voyage of the Scarlet Queen
I've written before about the rarity of having a half hour show with multiple part episodes were rare for half hour shows in the Golden Age of radio.
However, one show is a notable exception to this rule, Voyage of the Scarlet Queen. The 1947-48 Mutual Radio Series was unusual in many respects. It was a sea drama, but its story-telling style bore a striking resemblance to the hard boiled detective stories that were dominating the airwaves at the time. In addition to this, the first 20 episodes were interlinked.
The program follows Philip Karney (Elliot Lewis), Captain of the ketch Scarlet Queen as he tries to deliver a Cargo for Kang and Sons. He's opposed at every turn by henchmen for a competing exporter, determined to steal the cargo and willing to stop at nothing even multiple murders. He's aided by his first Gallagher (played by Ed Max) who began working for the bad guys but switched to become Karney's first mate.
The show features a recurring sophisticated and polite villain named Ah Sin as well as a returning love interest (played by Lewis then-wife Cathy) from one episode to the next. While some stories happen at sea, most often Karney and/or Gallagher get in trouble when the Scarlet Queen comes to port. Each episode ended with a ship's log and the first twenty concluded with Karney announcing how many miles the Scarlet Queen had traveled from its San Francisco port of call.
The show's exciting situations, colorful characters, and dangers around every corner make Voyage of the Scarlet Queen one of more unique radio programs I've found. The relationship between Karney and Gallagher is also a fascinating aspect of the show. They grow from unease at distrust at the beginning to a loyal camaraderie. With one exception, each episode ends with Karney and Gallagher talking on the deck of the Scarlet Queen and Gallagher offering Karney a drink. Karney responds with a smile, "After you Mate, after you."
The show lost a little bit of focus after episode 20, but remained one of radio's greatest adventures throughout its run.
One myth that has made it on to Wikipedia is that Voyage of the Scarlet Queen provided some inspiration to Star Trek based on the fact, "Each episode opens with an entry from the ship's log." Given that Sam Spade had been giving reports to Effie for more than a year and that in another Johnny Dollar would start handing in expense accounts, the log was just another in a long line of devices for characters to provide narration for their stories. George Raft's Mr. Ace paid a visit to a psychologist to fill that purpose. It's possible that Gene Roddenberry heard the show, but it's a stretch to say that played a role. The Star Trek theory also cites the fact that they became embroiled in trouble with "local authorities, agents of rival merchants, or desperate women in need of rescue." If they didn't run into trouble, it wouldn't be much of an adventure story. While its possible, I wouldn't consider this a probable inspiration for anything other than audience amazement.
The series finished in 1948, but Lewis wasn't finished with the concept. In 1950, he recorded a pilot for Log of the Black Parrot which brought Ed Max back as Gallagher and renamed his role to Matthew Kinkaid. The audition recording had a far more moody and less action filled than the original series and was not picked up for a run.
Currently in circulation are 33 of the 35 broadcast episodes (Episodes 7 and 10) are missing. In addition, the audition for Voyage of the Scarlet Queen recorded originally in February 1947 with Lewis as Gallagher and Howard Duff as Karney and the audition for Log of the Black Parrot are available.
Fans of great radio adventure owes it to themselves to check this series out.
Rating: 4.25 out of 5.0 stars.

Comparison: 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 vs. Ford Shelby GT500
The ultimate muscle-car showdown
Calabogie, Ont. — The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 boasts 6.2-litres of pumped up American V8, a four-lobe Eaton supercharger and a booming exhaust commensurate with its muscle-car status. Given its head and sufficient boost, it will pump out 580 horsepower at 6,000 rpm. Further down the rev scale, there's an almost-as-impressive 556 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,200 rpm. If Motor Trend magazine's timing is to be trusted, the ZL1 will scoot to 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 3.8 seconds and takes but 12.1 seconds to eclipse the timing light at the end of a quarter mile. Given enough breathing space, it will also creep mighty close to the magical 300 km/h.
And it's the slow car in this comparison test.
The same specifications for the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500, you see, read like something out of a Lamborghini brochure. This latest rendition of the supercharged 'Stang has a steroidal 662 horsepower on tap (at a heady 6,500 rpm), a whopping 631 lb.-ft. of torque to spin the rear wheels and Motor Trend's stopwatches say the GT500 beats the ZL1 by 0.3 and 0.5 seconds in the aforementioned acceleration runs. Oh, and it'll top out at over 320 kilometres an hour. Did we mention that it only costs $61,699? Were supercar showdowns waged on paper, the Ford would have won this comparison in a walk.
Thankfully, at least for General Motors, there's a lot more to driving than simply dominating the back page of a showroom brochure (do automakers still print those things?). Indeed, in the interest of objectivity, MSN Autos drove both cars for more than 1,000 kilometres and then subjected both to the rigours of the demonically twisty Calabogie Motorsport Park's long track (over five kilometres long and with 20 or 21 corners, depending how you count them). It's a true test of man and machine.
