We are so excited to continue our association with the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival. This year we are co-sponsoring Tammy Chu's remarkable documentary, Resilience.
Wednesday, May 4 at 7:00 PM @ CGV Cinemas Theater 1
Resilience tells the story of Korean adoptee Brent Beesley's reunification with his birth mother, Myungja, and the challenges they face forging a familial bond after so many years apart. The oft-silent voice in the adoption triad (birth family, Korean adoptee, adoptive family) is the birth mother, whose silence is reinforced by social pressure and internalized shame. Of course, everyone featured in Resilience is courageous beyond words. But, what makes Resilience particularly special is Myungja's determination to step into the spotlight and give eloquent and passionate voice to the "other side" of adoption. If knowledge is power, then indeed, shining the light into this dark and obscured place of adoption – while challenging to watch – is ultimately empowering.
Following the screening…
- There will be a short 15-minute "Question and Answer" session with producer Jessica Windt. Jessica will shed light on the process of making Resilience and provide context for its remarkable story.
- Beginning at 9:00 PM, please come out for dinner and drinks at Beer Halle! Located just beneath the theater (no need to move your car!). Again, producer Jessica Windt will be on hand to answer any follow-up questions about the film and to share more about its genesis and production.
Theater Information & Parking:
Complimentary parking is available in the CGV Parking structure which can be accessed through the Manhattan Street entrance. Please plan on arriving early if you want to park for free. Otherwise there are paid lots and meters in the surrounding area.
621 South Western Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90005
Purchasing Tickets:
Tickets can be purchased through AKA-SoCal directly or online, through the film festival. If you do plan on attending, we ask that you buy your tickets through AKA-SoCal. This is better for both you and AKA-SoCal. You get a reduced price ($10, instead of $12), in addition AKA is reimbursed for our initial outlay to the festival (we don't want to have leftover tickets that we already paid for). You can purchase tickets through AKA-SoCal in one of two ways:
1. Pay directly by cash or by check made out to AKA-SoCal, with LA APFF in the "memo" line
2. Pay by credit card via Paypal
Whichever way you chose, we ask you contact Max Choi at firstname.lastname@example.com Please provide him with:
1. Your name
2. Your address
3. Your phone number
4. The number of tickets you want to purchase
5. Your preferred method of payment
6. Whether or not you plan on attending the dinner with Jessica Windt (producer) after the screening
The deadline for buying tickets through AKA-SoCal, at the reduced price, is: Monday, May 2nd. If AKA-SoCal runs out of reduced-price tickets before the deadline, we will let you know via our website. Please check it periodically for updates. We will then release the code for purchasing discounted tickets through the Film Festival's website.
Time and again, this film has proved its significance and power; you don't want to miss this amazing opportunity to watch it among a KAD community. We can't wait to see you there!

20 Tacky Religious Products Guaranteed to Anger God
#10. Jesus "Action" Figures
This line of figurines represents Jesus being kick-ass at a variety of activities from bull riding to ... reading. Well, despite the one weak entry, this set seems to suggest the Messiah was all about getting busy in a variety of ways. The football figurine was controversial, because the Methodists assert Jesus was a running quarterback while other denominations insist the Lord was strictly a pocket passer.
The next set of figures will include Jesus in a kickboxing tournament, Jesus hunting man for sport and Jesus choke-slamming the Pope through a steel cage.
#9. Armor of God Pajamas
These days, for a child, sleep is a constant battle with the forces of darkness. Now you can help your kids defeat darkness with the Armor of God pajamas. It is thought to be the ultimate test of a man's faith when he can enter battle with nothing but a cushy pajama shield.
#8. Lookin' Good For Jesus Mini Kit
Far be it from us to tell any woman how to live, but we might suggest if you're down a path that leads you to "whore for Jesus," (which we didn't know even qualified as a path) we suggest maybe rethinking it.
Nonetheless, someone made the Lookin' Good for Jesus Kit, which contains a mirrored Jesus statuette, vanilla nectar lip balm, Easter-Lily hand and body cream (with sparkle!) and a folding mirror compact. The top of the package, adorned with eerie looking cartoon women staring googly-eyed at the Lord, says "Get His Attention" and implicitly adds "by being a skanky abomination."
#7. Jesus is My Coach
We don't know exactly what the designer of these statues was going for, probably some kind of After School Special bullshit about believing in yourself or not abusing PCP or whatever. Nonetheless, when they designed the "Jesus is my Gymnastics Coach" statue, they were either the sickest bastards on earth or so genuinely clean-minded, they couldn't conceive of the thousand and one horribly offensive jokes we've made since seeing this thing, none of which we're going to print here.
#6. Jesus Holiday Specs 3D Glasses
Jesus was known to perform more miracles than you could shake a stick at, but who knew any of those miracles involved viewing the world in 3D? And while we can appreciate that the world already exists in 3D, that didn't stop someone from making these glasses that let you see the world the way Jesus did, which is to say the word "Jesus" will float around your face like some kind of annoying hallucination.
#5. Grow a Buddha
Christians don't have the market on shitty merchandise cornered by a long shot, as witnessed by the stunning Grow-A Buddha, because as the box notes, "growing your Buddha is the first step on your path to enlightenment." Whatever the fuck that means.
This Buddha will grow 600 percent of its original size if you put it in water, after which time we assume you use it to wash your car or smear on seeds and watch him grow a Chia afro.
#4. Grapes of Galilee Wine
Because few things compliment a pious lifestyle like getting shit faced, Haroz wineries gives us the Grapes of Galilee wine, from vineyards right in Jesus' old neighborhood. The crops are even irrigated with waters from the river Jordan where Jesus was baptized and where, in 2006, raw sewage was dumped. Who knows, Jesus Himself may have eaten the great, great, great grandfather of the grape that got pressed into the wine you're drinking.
#3. Teen Witch Kit
Not nearly as cool or practical as being a Teen Wolf, which would at least make you a kick-ass basketball player, the Teen Witch Kit does offer you an understanding of Wicca, which some vegans in a commune in Northern California assure us is really a religion.
Not only that, this kit lays out a furious groin kick to cheap-ass religions like Christianity that only offer eternal salvation. This kit provides interested teens with spells for things like ... shopping guidance. Wait, is there a more expensive kit that will let us throw lightning and shit? If so, we're saving up for that one.
#2. Bibleman Video Game
Remember the mid '90s when, for a brief period of time, there was a standing rule that if you could think up any preposterous shit while completely hammered on Robitussin, someone would film it for you and make it into a long running series? Neither do we, but it must have happened somewhere to account for the Bibleman television show. Now, you too can kick ass for the Lord in video game form.
#1. Dog Nativity Set
As you're no doubt aware, the most common complaint about nativity scenes is they're too prejudiced against non humans. After all, who are the dogs supposed to pray to?
Luckily, some intrepid inventor out there took a stand and made the Dog Nativity Scene featuring Mary, Joseph, some wise men and the Messiah Himself, all as partially clothed canines. It's blaspheming fun for the whole family, assuming your family enjoys dodging angry thunderbolts and plagues.
Apparently it's not just religious types who insist on making children's playthings into specters of genuine terror, as we discovered in our rundown of The 25 Most Baffling Toys From Around the World. And don't miss Ross Wolinksy's play by play on YouTube's most aggravating election '08 video yet.

Unanswered: Object [object Object] has no method 'getViewport'
I have developed an application with sencha touch pr3 and now migrating to the sencha-touch-188.8.131.52-gpl version. And I had to make some of the changes in my application as per new structure.
I read somewhere refs is no more an array and should be mentioned something like this, but still the issue hasn't gone away.
Ext.application({ name : 'TestApp', autoCreateViewport : true, controllers : [ 'App' ], config: { refs : { viewport : { selector : 'test-viewport', }, }, handleClick: function() { var viewport = refs.getViewport(), getViewport(); } }

autoCreateViewport is not a valid config of Ext.application. Sencha Touch 2 creates a global "viewport" that by default is a Container with card layout that you can add items to and use. You can get this viewport via Ext.Viewport.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

Let a statement P is "X is true if and only if Y is true". What is the negation of P? I am little confused. It seems that digital equivalent of this statement is P = X and Y. Hence negation of P is (not X) or (not Y) i.e. Either X or Y is false. Am I right guys?
$X\leftrightarrow Y$ is the conjunction of $X\leftarrow Y$ and $X\rightarrow Y$. The negation of a conjunction is the disjunction of the negations; the negation of $P\rightarrow Q$ is $P\wedge \neg Q$. So we have: \begin{align*} \neg(X\leftrightarrow Y) &\Longleftrightarrow \neg\Bigl( (X\rightarrow Y)\wedge (Y\rightarrow X)\Bigr)\\ &\Longleftrightarrow \neg(X\rightarrow Y)\vee \neg(Y\rightarrow X)\\ &\Longleftrightarrow (X\wedge \neg Y) \vee (Y\wedge \neg X). \end{align*} So the negation of "$X$ is true if and only if $Y$ is true" is "Either $X$ is true and $Y$ is false, or $X$ is false and $Y$ is true." Added: as it happens, as noted by Rahul Narain in his comment, this is in turn equivalent to "$X$ is true if and only if $Y$ is false" (just compare the cases when they are each true). So you also get that $$\neg(X\leftrightarrow Y) \Longleftrightarrow X\leftrightarrow \neg Y \Longleftrightarrow \neg X\leftrightarrow Y.$$
The digital equivalent is P = X XNOR Y, and thus the negation is (not P) = X XOR Y. In other words, P is false when X is true but Y is false, or when X is false but Y is true.
Yes, but you have to be very precise here, because the negation of implication is exclusive (not inclusive) OR. So the answer is "Either $X$ or $Y$ is false, but not both".
In general, if you are confused, start with a truth table for implication and then negate it. Resulting table matches XOR (exclusive OR).
You are not right. Let $X = (\ell$ is even) and $Y = (\ell$ is not odd). Then clearly $X \Leftrightarrow Y$, but "($\ell$ is not even) or ($\ell$ is odd)" is strictly weaker; you want "($\ell$ is not even) $\Leftrightarrow$ ($\ell$ is odd)" to be true.
The assertion $X \leftrightarrow Y$ can also be written as $X = Y$. So its negation is $X \neq Y$, which is the same as $X = \overline{Y}$ (since $X,Y \in \{0,1\}$), which is the same as $\overline{X} \leftrightarrow Y$.
The confusion here, I think, arises from not recognizing the principal connective at work. I know of at least three ways to figure out the principal connective.
For this formula here's an abbreviated truth table with step numbers listed below the columns.
Also, "x if and only if y" in Polish notation goes KCxyCyx. So, we have a conjunction, and thus its negation goes NKCxyCyx, a negation of the conjunction of two conditionals. What this implies depends on the logical system in place. If we have an appropriate De Morgan law for the logic, then we can infer ANCxyNCyx (at least one of either of the negation of one of the conditionals or the negation of the other conditional holds). But, that De Morgan law might not hold (and in fact doesn't hold for some logical systems). Also, "x if and only if y" isn't logically equivalent in two-valued logic to "x and y", as I hope the above makes clear from the truth table of "x and y".

Answers to above questions:
1. Ask AD Holmoe and Coach Mendenhall if it is important. They arranged their schedule to have the bye week.
2. Several factors obviously; however, one reason is Utah has had better players. As evidence look at the 30+ Utes in the pros compared to under 10 from the Y. (Sorry the misconception of Utah plays above their heads and BYU underperforms just doesn't cut it!)
3. The teams face different circumstances for the first time. Utah is in a conference and plays 9 PAC-12 opponents. BYU is independent and must arrange 12 contests each year. Next year Utah plays Michigan and Fresno State as two of their 3 non-conference games.
4. Depends if you consider passing as an evaluation factor.
5. BYU needs it to get to 6 games (something they should do with ease - ie. Idaho State, Nevada, Houston, Middle Tennessee State, and their win over Texas. Utah needs it to get to 6 and be bowl eligible (remaining schedule 4 teams ranked in top 25, one previously ranked and one receiving votes!) Y needs it to support relevancy and for recruiting more than U does.

If you did your homework you'd see that BYU played at the Meadowlands in a
Kick-Off Classic one year and the game was so long it extended into Sunday in
the Eastern Time Zone. They finished playing the game. Why wouldn't you
know that as a sportswriter? There's really no question about that.
As far as the other questions, many of these games were close enough that they could have gone either way. Once in a while there is a blowout and partisans seem to hang onto that for years, like the 54-10 gift from Jake Heaps to the Utes, but there were games when Jim McMahon was around that went just the opposite way. BYU has never cut down their own goal posts and made them into mementos of the "big win" like Utah did because that really was sort of a desperation "we finally won" thing.
I expect a good game. I also, for the record, expected OSU to win and they did.

Dr. Chris Hill didn't want to schedule BYU knowing that the potential of a mid season loss to BYU was too great of a risk.

C'mon - Taysom Hill is what he is. How can he be a better passer than he is? What a tired cliché - he is better than his stats! No he is not - until he plays better. I could make the same claim about Utah's D being better than they are because of past tradition. They are not - they are what they are this year until they play better! This game really is a toss up. Stronger Utah offense than we have seen in several years against a stronger Y defense than come into its own the past two seasons. The decision will be made by whose strong suit is stronger on Saturday! I like my Utes to win this one - they need it real bad and they are just better overall. Prediction from the past - Utah +5

Utah will win. Why?
1. Utah can pass, BYU is weaker against the pass.
2. Utah's weakness is pass defense, but BYU can't pass.
3. Utah will be more poised. BYU will be too emotional.
4. Utah coaches are better.
I don't think it will be that close. Utah needs this game desperately too get to six wins. They will score early putting pressure on BYU. They will force BYU to pass leading to at least three turnovers. Utah scores over 30 by exploiting BYU secondary. I see it being Utah 31 BYU 14 maybe 17.
Winner goes bowling for sure, loser struggles to become bowl eligible. Most meaningful game in awhile.

13 of the last 16 have been decided by a touchdown or less in the closing minutes or in overtime.

BYU enjoys hosting our little brothers from the hill, because it gives the Utes an opportunity to experience what it's like to play in the only big boy-sized stadium in the state.
While you're here, why don't you take a little time to visit BYU's Legacy Hall where you can see a Crystal Football National Championship Trophy and a Heisman Trophy on display.

Unlike our little friends on the hill who constantly live in denial, BYU
doesn't have to pretend that we were consensus national champions in 1984 -
all five major national organizations of the day selected BYU as the 1984
national champion.
What's really laughable is Utah fans claiming a national championship in 1944, that wasn't, while pretending that BYU's officially recognized national championship in 1984, wasn't.
13-0 in 1984 against a complete slate of Division 1 opponents is not good enough for jealous Utah fans.
6-1 in 1944 against the weakest slate of opponents in NCAA history is just fine for Utah fans.

Better question. Why do we care about this arbitrary 11 years number? Bronco and
Whittingham have been with their respective schools for 8 season (this is their
9th) and Whitt is up 5-3. Doesn't that seem to be MUCH more meaningful than
including games under other coaches?
Worth noting is that 6 of those 8 were decided by 7 points or less with 2 going to OT. BYU and Utah were 5-5 in the decade following the turn of the century and 5-5 in the 90s. Utah is up 3-0 in this decade and I am hopeful that will change to 3-1 come Saturday, but why should I care about the last 11 years, specifically?
Also the question about the QBs was answered in a very political way. Right now Wilson is the better QB (or is, at least, having the better year). Hill was a better passer last year, which is why I don't fault the "better than his stats" argument, but until he puts together a complete game (high completion rate, 200+ yards, and a favorable TD:INT ratio), there is really no argument to be made in Hill's behalf.

Actually these two teams are in amazingly similar situaltions. Each have a
solid win and an embarrasing loss. Each have serious questions on one side of
the ball. Each is trying to prove that they are the team that beat the good
team, not the ones that lost to the bad ones.
BYU lost to a virginia team that proceeded to get poinded by Oregon the following week and Utah lost to a Oregon St, a team that lost to FCS Eastern Washington in Week 1.
BYU Pounded a then 15th ranked Texas in Week 2, and Utah beat a good USU in Week 1.
BYU Has a very good defense, but has questions on offense. In spite of their 679 yard output last week they have a QB who's only completed 33% of his passes. Utah's offense has scored 78 points and racked up 989 yards in its two FBS games. On the other side though. the Utes defense has given up 77 points and 978 yards.
I can't wait for the game.

I believe it's still too early to say with confidence which teams are good, and which ones aren't.
I don't know how embarrassed BYU should be by losing to UVA - on the road, in inclimate weather, in the season opener. And I don't think UVA should be viewed as a "bad team" because they got manhandled in Eugene by Oregon.
While I am disappointed in Saturday's outcome at RES, I am not embarrassed that Utah lost to Oregon State. I think Oregon State will prove to be a solid team, even though they lost to Eastern Washington in their opener.
Yes, BYU pounded Texas. The Cougars should be proud of rushing for more yards against the Longhorns than anyone has ever done. But remember, the Longhorns got beat soundly again two days ago, indicating that there may be little significance to the "then 15th ranked" qualifier you used to describe Texas.
I expect that Utah State will have another excellent season, but we'll have to wait and see.
Utah and BYU both want to win Saturday's game desperately, as always. But for Utah, they probably can't become bowl eligible without a win in LES.

The U's defense has, in my opinion, no tricks as I did not see more than a couple of stunts. Their blitzes were ineffective and their middle linebackers seemed to be stuck in the mud and slow to react. Their DBs were burned too often and the safety was out of place too frequently to make a break on a play. Once Taysom finds his accuracy in his arm, he will terrorize the U. I will make mention of this observation. The U wears teams down in the 4th quarter. The U's defensive line started to get pressure in the 4th quarter. Subbing out 300lbers starts to have its effect on offensive linemen. I hope that Sitake can work out these problems, be creative, and have this turn into a good game. If not, the Y walks away with a laugher.

@Y's little brother
"The Utes chickened out and scheduled Fresno State instead."
A team which is currently ranked in the top 25
A team which BYU also has chosen to schedule in its quest for tough opponents. And since Holmoe stated, "I haven't tried to put together mediocre schedules," he must see Fresno State as more than a mediocre team.

BYU will win. Utah barely beat Utah State, wholloped a bad Weber State team,
then lost a conference game. Utah gets kudos for winning their first two but
they were games they were supposed to win. Having lost a conference game puts
their season in doubt, sad but true.
BYU beat up on a decent yet poorly coached Texas team. The Virginia game dealt BYU some bad luck with a delay on the road then wet conditions the rest of the game, and they still nearly won. Watch out for the BYU running game and an occassional pass to some annoyed receivers. BYU wins by a decent margin, not a blowout.

Trash talk aside here's what I see:
1) BYUs running game will not be easy to stop. If Utah doesn't respect it, it will be Texas Redux.
2) BYUs passing game is unknown. Is Hill really as bad as he looked? I don't think so. He was 50% last year with a much worse offense.
3) BYU defense is the real deal and they'll be all over Wilson and stuffing the run.
4) BYU's kicking (which cost them two of the last three games) looks much better.
5) Utah is looking down the barrel of a murderous schedule, UCLA, USC, Stanford, Oregon. They lost to OSU in a thriller (I guess), but OSU is not Oregon, Stanford, etc.
A win could bolster Utah, but I don't think they'll get it this year. For BYU, it will be a good win but probably won't help SOS numbers. Sadly, the big win over Texas won't either, unless UT turns things around. But you have to beat the teams you play, and 1-loss BYU would get a nice ranking. Utah might upset one of the teams (maybe USC?) but certainly won't be ranked.
Anyway, I'm excited about this game! Go Cougs!

I hadn't looked at the Utah schedule, wow, even with a BYU win they
won't make 6 wins. Here's how the two teams fare the rest of this
Utah 5-7:
Weber St - W
UCLA - L (big)
Stanford - L (big)
Arizona - L
USC - W (small)
Oregon - L (big)
Colorado - W (small)
Virginia - L
Texas - W
Utah - W
MTSU - W (big)
Georgia Tech - W
Houston - W
Boise State - W (small)
Wisconsin - L
Idaho State - W (big)
Notre Dame - L (small)
Nevada - W (small)
Either way, BYU gets their bowl, the U stays home again. So this game is HUGE for the U and Big for BYU.
And why is the official Utah Athletics website still hosted by cstv? Time to join the big leagues...

Man, we have some humorless and/or ditzy posters here . . the question about BYU
continuing to play after the clock strikes 12 was not a serious question.
As for the game, having watched OSU hang 51 on Utah, I have to say BYU wins because of their D. Of course, I thought I had good reasons to pick BYU the last three years and look how that turned out.

"A team which is currently ranked in the top 25"
How is that relevant?
In 2012, when Chris Hill announced the 2014 and 2015 suspension of the rivalry, Fresno State was coming off a 4-9 record in the WAC and the Bulldogs hadn't been ranked since 2004.
By contrast, BYU had just finished a 10-3 season with a #25 finish in the Coaches Poll and a #26 finish in the AP Poll.
As Dr. Hill himself said when he made the announcement in July 2012:
"What we have to do is make sure we don't come close to overscheduling," he said.
In Hill's mind, playing both Michigan and BYU in the same years would have put the Utes in that situation.
"I can't expect us to play 11 really, really difficult games in a season," he said.
Spin it however helps U sleep at night, but the reality is Hill dropped BYU for Fresno St to give the Utes a better chance of being bowl eligible.

If BYU wins, I want them to blow out the Utes. It probably won't happen, so as a BYU fan, I'll just take the win. Should be a good game though. If Utah doesn't win this game, they will probably not become bowl eligible. Said it 2 1/2 years ago, utes will be basement dwellers and in the forgottens of college football.

If BYU players and coaches are 1/2 as arrogant and over confident as their fans
on these threads, they will get beat soundly. BYU fans act as if they are 40
point favorites. Time for a dose of reality, you lost to a horrible team and
beat a fair, at best, Texas team. Texas will lose 5-6 games this year. Actually
beat Utah before popping off! I guess it's easier to do it prior to the
game, then make up excuses afterwards.

make both sides of my mouth speak so fluently as in this quote. Perhaps
it's more mental than physical.
I have BYU 27, Utah 17. Hill will have a decent short-throwing game with an occasional long surprise, and a great running game. He will be good in the air but not great. Utah will have a great throwing game when the pressure doesn't come or when they can stop it. I have BYU's defensive pressure checking Wilson's great arm more than Utah's D cornering Hill's versatility and good defensive reading. Wilson will get a couple of good runs in.
I call it "prediction".

Did you even read the posts? Actually, all you have to do is read the screen names. BYU hasn't done anything yet; nor has Utah. Only difference is, BYU fans wanted to fire their coach after UVa, then act like their team is top 5 after beating a horrible Texas team. Most act like Utah is going to be a walk in the park and discount the Fact Utah has won 3 in a row. Kind of like how the Virginia game has been swept under the rug.
Thanks for proving my theory. Your prediction and 75 cents will get you a Desseret News, newspaper.

I'm honestly curious about your quarterback rankings. Were you saying that Hill was 23rd and Wilson 121st? because the last ranking that I saw had Hill at 16th in the nation, with Wilson not being in the top 16, but I don't think it was an official website that ranked it. I just don't think Hill is 121st after Texas, you probably saw it after Virginia

I love all the BYU fan predictions. I chuckle every time 1984 is brought up as
support for anything. The comments about Hills passing ability last year are
also funny. How much did he play before getting hurt? Do all of you really think
BYU is going to run for 500+ yards ever again?
Utah beat a very talented USU team with a close win. Utah lost to a PAC-12 team with a very good QB in an OT shootout. Certainly either game could have gone the other way. To all fans, it does not matter how you win, it just matters that you win. OSU was one play better than Utah.
Until you beat a team on the field there is really no use shooting off your mouth. Expect the same outcome as the last three years.

or the like is simply ignoring the fact that both teams have strengths and

Anybody who is making predictions about this game is either ignorant (of history), stupid, and just trying to get a rise out of people (boorish?). This game is almost always a toss-up. The past never predicts the future. We do not know what adjustments Utah will make with the defensive backs and we don't know how Taysom Hill will perform. That's why we will all watch Saturday evening.

Because our secondary is horrible and because the game is at LES I can honestly say BYU has a very slight edge.
But then again if BYU plays like they did at Virgina then Utah by 20+. And no BYU won't repeat the Texas game performance. Because unlike Texas's #126 ranked rush defense our #29 rush defense can tackle (see Utah State).

There is nothing more foolish than a homer who predicts a homer win just because he's a homer. If you step out of your homer mindset, you'll see that BYU has a very good chance of winning this game, and I'm a Ute fan. You'll also see that Utah has a very good chance of winning this game.

I am a life long Lego Maniac, and my kits from when I was a kid were passed down to my nephew, who has just passed them down to my son (40 years of history...). The trouble is that none of my old plans/directions are still around, and neither are the plans/direction from my nephew's kits. My nephew and I started to do a quick inventory, but he couldn't remember all of the kits that were in the hoard (3 LARGE boxes so far). Is there an easy way to figure this out? Does LEGO offer any of their old plans for free online or will I need to pay for them? Can any one offer help in identifying some of the fairly recent stuff? I can post images if needed. Some of the newer parts are quite unique.
Your best shot is to identify individual piece and look them up on Peeron or BrickLink. Since both carry set inventories, you'll be able to find lists of sets in which the parts can be found. Try to start with more bizarre parts, chances are they are in a few models only.
Once you're sure you've found a model for which you've all the parts, build it using old instruction scans from PICSL.
If identifying LEGO parts proves too difficult for some of them, ask experts.
Lego has an online page that can be used to download manuals in PDF format. Unfortunately, the page mentions that manuals are only available for kits that were released in 2002 or later:
You might want to contact Lego customer service to see if they might be able to direct you to other resources for these older kits. According to squidoo.com, Lego customer service can provide older instructions for a fee. That page also lists several alternate resource that you can search to find older manuals for free:
There are a number of ways to start figuring it out, my method is as follows:
Try and identify some of the following:
Unique pieces
The minifigs, stickers and colors are usually enough at least point you to the right theme category (ie space, pirates, castle, city, star wars, etc.) and often will narrow it down even further. A logo or minifig is usually a giveaway of what set group you're looking for.
For example a recent bulk buy I got had a number of Joker images on tiles and a number of unique purple and green colors that made it clear there was a Batman themed Joker set in the mix.
From there you can look up parts lists on Bricklink or Peeron, as well as find directions for assembly. To narrow it down to a specific set and make sure you have all the parts.
If your not super familiar with the lego themes these sites will also give you a place to find them.
One very good way is to look for numbers on pieces, especially when they are printed. A number on a Lego piece is almost always the number of the set.
There are exceptions; for example, the Lego trains from the eighties had a "timetable" sticker that listed several numbers; each number was the number of another train set. (In other words, each train had a separate entry on the timetable). If you find that sticker, you have either a railway station from that time, or a train set from that tine that included a timetable. But, this will still narrow down your search.

To the editor:
I think it is now time to respond to Harry Andrews and his illogical comments concerning the Smithfield water transfer to Jefferson County.
He has been told numerous times that we, the commissioners, have no intention of raising water rates to take over Smithfield's water department. He writes, "This is hard for me to believe. ("Voters must get involved," Sept. 30.) Then, do not believe it. I do not know what else to tell you. But for the rest of the readers, here are the facts:
First, Smithfield residents have paid their water bills to village officials. Second, village officials did not pay the county for whatever reasons. Third, the first time Smithfield officials owed the county $250,000 in past bills. Fourth, the county took Smithfield to court and the court ordered Smithfield to pay the money. They did, and then the village officials did it again, and now they owe more than $150,000 and it is still climbing.
Do we keep going back to court with attorney fees? Smithfield cannot afford to even fix its system when there are problems, and the county then goes out and fixes the system for them. The writer does not like the fact that we fix the system. He would rather see 400 homes shut off from water, but these residents are paying the village. He would rather see babies go without water. He would rather see the elderly go without water. He would rather see health problems emerge because residents would be without water. He would rather see homes burned to the ground because there would be no water.
The writer thinks he knows more about the numbers than we do, and he is absolutely incorrect. By the county taking over Smithfield, the county will make $200,000 a year. In 10 years we will make more than $2 million from taking over Smithfield. To fix the system, it might take $800,000 during a 10-year period. The county will still be way ahead, and we can provide people with safe drinking water in Smithfield and beyond.
I am glad the writer is not doing the county math, but his own math, which is in la la land, but as usual, he gets to read his name in the paper, which is the attention he loves.

Is it possible to pay with a Swiss Francs bill that is cut into pieces in a Swiss store such as Migros or Coop?
I guess it depends on jurisdiction, but in some (all?) European countries you can present a stitched banknote and have it accepted as a legal tender by a merchant. One requirement is that the Frankenstein banknote is almost whole, i.e. only small parts of it are missing (otherwise one could try to use two halves of the same banknote in different places!). I assume some the security elements of the banknote should also be present for it to be accepted - for example, in some countries there is a hologram strip on one side of the banknote which should not be damaged.
If it's in two or three large pieces, I'd repair it and try to use it for payment -- just don't conceal it among other banknotes to hide its state!
If it's too badly damaged, I'd go directly to the bank and try to exchange it there.
In case of the Swiss Franc, this is regulated in the Federal Curreny and Means of Payment Code (Bundesgesetz über die Währung und die Zahlungsmittel / Loi fédérale sur l'unité monétaire et les moyens de paiement).
Article 8 states that a damaged bank note is replaced by the Swiss National Bank if the serial number is recognisable and at least half of the bank note is provided.
Similar regulations are in effect in at least the Euro zone and I assume most other European countries. Some countries operate with a disclaimer that deliberately damaged notes are not replaced.

I often hear about subatomic particles having a property called "spin" but also that it doesn't actually relate to spinning about an axis like you would think. Which particles have spin? What does spin mean if not an actual spinning motion?
Spin is a technical term specifically referring to intrinsic angular momentum of particles. It means a very specific thing in quantum/particle physics. (Physicists often borrow loosely related everyday words and give them a very precise physical/mathematical definition.)
Since truly fundamental particles (e.g. electrons) are point entities, i.e. have no true size in space, it does not make sense to consider them 'spinning' in the common sense, yet they still possess their own angular momenta. Note however, that like many quantum states (fundamental variables of systems in quantum mechanics,) spin is quantised; i.e. it can only take one of a set of discrete values. Specifically, the allowed values of the spin quantum number $s$ are non-negative multiples of 1/2. The actual spin momentum (denoted $S$) is a multiple of Planck's constant, and is given by $S = \sqrt{s (s + 1)}$.
When it comes to composite particles (e.g. nuclei, atoms), spin is actually fairly easy to deal with. Like normal (orbital) angular momentum, it adds up linearly. Hence a proton, made of three constituent quarks, has overall spin 1/2.
If you're curious as to how this (initially rather strange) concept of spin was discovered, I suggest reading about the Stern-Gerlach experiment of the 1920s. It was later put into the theoretical framework of quantum mechanics by Schrodinger and Pauli.
Imagine going to the rest frame of a massive particle. In this frame, there is rotational symmetry, which means that the Lie algebra of rotations acts on the wave function. So the wave function is a vector in a representation of Lie(SO(3)) = Lie(SU(2)). "Spin" is the label of precisely which representation this is. Note that while SO(3) and SU(2) share a Lie algebra, they are different as groups, and it is a fact of life ("the connection between spin and statistics") that some particles -- fermions, with half-integral spin -- transform under representations of SU(2) while others -- bosons, with integral spin -- transform under SO(3).
I'm trying to give a less technical answer. It's not rigorous but should give you the idea how spin and the regular rotation related.
Maxwell's equations say in order to have magnetic field, you need a ring current.
This can be achieved by giving angular momentum to charged particles. This can be orbital or simply because the particle is spinning. This was the original thought hence the name 'spin'.
So in the classical picture, if you spin a tiny charged ball you'll have a spinning magnet. The axis of spinning and the north pole of the magnet pointing to the same direction.
If you put this spinning magnet into a magnetic field. The field will apply torque on it to turn it into the direction of the field (this is how compasses work).
But since the our magnet is spinning this torque cause the axis of spinning precess around the magnetic field. This means the component of the rotation axis that is parallel to the magnetic field (typically referred as the Z component) won't change while the other two components (X,Y) will circle around this axis.
On the other hand if the magnetic field inhomogeneous there will be a net force on the particle that will move it (that's why magnets can snap and repel each other). This force is proportional to the Z component. So the axis perpendicular to the magnetic field there will be no force, if it's parallel there will be maximum force (basically a dot product). This allows us measuring the Z component of the rotation axis.
That's the point of the Stern–Gerlach experiment. We would normally expect that particles will spin in a whole variety of random axes. So we would expect to measure random values for the Z component.
But in reality they have measured only two possible values corresponding to the Z angular momentum component: $ħ/2$ and $-ħ/2$ (for electrons). And not any other random values. Here the classical picture breaks down, angular momentum is also quantized. You can see spin is not the classical rotation vector. It's something you can dot multiply a vector to and you can only get two possible values. The positive component typically referred as the 'up' spin component while the negative is the 'down' spin.
Precession renders all axes other than the one being measured uncertain. This is how uncertainty principle plays role here: if you measure the Z component first, then measure the X component, then the Z again, you get random up/down results again, because the measurement of the X components precessed the Y and Z component. Also, you cannot cheat here: you may want to use weaker magnetic field to reduce the precession, the displacement will be too weak to distinguish between the up and down spins. If you try to use timing; you cannot cheat again because if you measure the time accurately, then the energy so the precession rate becomes uncertain.
Spin is angular momentum of particles. The lowest possible spin is 1/2 h-bar. It's impossible for any particle with angular momentum to have a lower angular momentum than this, and whatever angular momentum a particle does have must be an integer multiple of this. Consider it the angular momentum building block. It's value is 340 dB below a kilogram meter squared radian per second.

Say we have something like $$ (x+2+y)^{23} $$
How does one go about finding the co efficient of say $$ x^6y^7 $$
Say we have something like $$ (x+2+y)^{23} $$
How does one go about finding the co efficient of say $$ x^6y^7 $$
Consider the entire expansion $(x+2+y)(x+2+y) \ldots (x+2+y)$. You want the term $x^6 y^7$, which means that you have to pick 6 $x$'s and 7 $y$'s. Thus, you need to pick $23-6-7$ 2's.
Hence, the term is given by
$$ {23 \choose 6} {23-6 \choose 7} { 23-6-7 \choose 23-6-7} \times x^6 \times y^7 \times (2)^{23-6-7}$$
It get's slightly more interesting when the base has multiple powers of $x$. You can try this problem of determining the coefficient of $x^{16}$ in $ (x^3+x+1)^8$.
You can also use the multinomial theorem. Your problem is then equivalent to compute
$$\binom{23}{6,10,7}2^{10}x^6y^7=\dfrac{23!}{6!\ 10!\ 7!}2^{10}x^6y^7=2010334470144 x^6 y^7$$
You can also use the binomial theorem twice over:
$$ (x+y+2)^{23} = \sum_{k=0}^{23} \binom{23}{k} 2^{23-k} (x+y)^k$$
$$ = \sum_{k=0}^{23} \binom{23}{k} 2^{23-k} \sum_{\ell=0}^k \binom{k}{\ell} x^{\ell} y^{k-\ell}$$
Seen this way, $k$ represents the net order of the monomial of interest, which in this case is 13. It then follows that $\ell = 6$ and the coefficient of $x^6 y^7$ is
$$2^{10} \binom{23}{13} \binom{13}{6}$$
Related techniques: (I), (II). We will use the Taylor series in two variables
to get the desired result. In your case, we are looking for the coefficient of $x^6 y^7$, so we need to find
$$ \frac{1}{6!\,7!}\frac{\partial^{13}}{\partial x^6 \partial y^7 }(x+y+2)^{23}|_{x=0,y=0} = 2010334470144 $$
Note: We used the formula
to find
$$ \frac{\partial^{13}}{\partial x^6 \partial y^7 }(x+y+2)^{23}. $$
$$ \frac{\partial^{6}}{\partial x^6 }\frac{\Gamma(23+1)}{\Gamma(23-7+1)}(x+y+2)^{16} = \frac{\Gamma(23+1)}{\Gamma(23-7+1)}\frac{\Gamma(16+1)}{\Gamma(16-6+1)}(x+y+2)^{10} $$
$$ = \frac{(23)!}{(16)!}\frac{(16)!}{(10)!}(x+y+2)^{10} .$$

There are two symbols I do not recognise below the stretto in this excerpt:
What are these symbols? And also, form what I read the stretto here should be interpreted as an accelerando, am I correct?
This is an Turn, an ornament consisting of four notes. The double-sharp symbol indicates that the lower note to be performed is a g double-sharp rather than a natural g, so the sequnce to be performed is b, a sharp, g double-sharp, a sharp.
I wouldn't interpret stretto as accelerando. My guess is that Chopin put it there to prevent the other natural interpretation of the passage, which is to slow down, from happening. So, instead of doing an accelerando, the passage under the dashes should just be generally faster/flowing, probably slowing down during the last hairpin (>). You'll need to experiment to find a natural way to do it.

Unanswered: Drag & Drop in a treeGrid
Please is there anyway to get the source parent and the destination parent on dropping an object into a new destination ?
Thank you,
9 Mar 2013 1:15 AM #2
And also I have an other question, it's possible to do somes controles on dropping an object. For exemple check if the object is intanceof a SubType, if yes, then drop, else cancel the drop event
16 Aug 2013 1:39 AM #3
I've got the exact same question and I didn't fin anyway to do it.
16 Aug 2013 4:30 AM #4
I found a kind of solution in another post.
You must override showFeedback in your TreeGridDropTarget.
Then, in the method, you can use
com.sencha.gxt.widget.core.client.tree.Tree.TreeNode<? extends BaseDto> item = super .getWidget().findNode( event.getDragMoveEvent().getNativeEvent().getEventTarget().<Element> cast());
// forbid the drop status = -1; activeItem = null; appendItem = null; Insert.get().hide(); event.getStatusProxy().setStatus(false);

I ordered Polar Bear, Rapunzel Had Extensions, Te Amo, Daemon's Tail, and Steampunk (pictured below in this order). They arrived in these lovely, sturdy silver cases with clear plastic tops, not too different from MAC eyeshadow compacts - and for those who love depotting, their pans are 1" in diameter and will fit in MAC palettes:
Fyrinnae, if you're listening: I know you don't have plans right now to release your blushes or highlighters in pressed form, but if you're even considering that, I just wanted to say I WOULD BUY THEM. That is all. :)
So what do you think, readers? Do you plan to buy any? If so, which colors?
