Editor's Note: Sports Columnist Earl Cox has purposely spelled Bob Knight's name wrong. "He won't say Kentucky," Earl explained, "so I thought I would have some fun with him."
The ink had hardly dried in Sports Illustrated's superb coverage of Kentucky's victory over Kansas in the national championship game before the magazine had picked next season's top 10. There may be some surprises to you:
1. Indiana, 2. Louisville, 3. Kentucky, 4. Florida, 5. Michigan, 6. Syracuse, 7. Gonzaga, 8. North Carolina, 9. Arizona, 10. Memphis.
SI was quick to cover its backside: "John Calipari may have lost his starters to the NBA, but he'll reload with N.C. State transfer Ryan Harrow at point and at least one of the top unsigned recruits, 6-10 Nerlens Noel or 6-6 Shabazz Muhammad. If the Cats land both, they vault to No. 1."
By the time you read this, there most likely will be news about what both of the big guys decide.
Here's why SI is high on UofL: "Power forward Chane Behanan is poised for sophomore stardom. He and shot-swatting Senegalese center Gorgui Dieng will help the Cardinals reprise the country's most efficient defense as the team runs away with the Big East championship."
The Winningest
You may want to keep track of the won-lost standings of men's college basketball teams. Here are the top three:
- Kentucky 2,090.
- Kansas 2,070.
- North Carolina 2,065.
Name for Cats
Several of you think these special Cats should have a nickname. Some ideas from my readers: Unselfish Cats, Davis' Cats, Davis & Co., Cal's Cats.
Already taken are Fabulous Five, Unforgettables and Rupp's Runts.
That Night Guy
Poor Bobby Night has forgotten the school name of our land-grant university in Lexington.
He absolutely refuses to say the name. Really, Coach Night, it's easy: Ken-tuck-ee.
The coach obviously has no trouble remembering how to say the name of his university but in case he does, let's help him: The O-high-o State Un-I-vers-I-ty.
ESPN lets Night get by with "that team from the SEC."
Tom Crean, who now coaches at Indiana, is a Calipari friend and confidant.
Crean told SI: "Calipari is one of the best coaches in college basketball. He gets talent to play very hard, and he makes talent better."
The Petrino Mess
The unfortunate problem at Arkansas involves more than just one former UofL head football coach.
Bobby Petrino, the Razorbacks' coach, was sitting on the best team he has ever had. Now because of a stupid ride on his motorcycle without helmets with a 25-year-old blonde associate in the football office, he may be fighting for his job.
John L. Smith, who also was head coach at Louisville, is on Petrino's staff. So is Paul Petrino, Bobby's brother and a former UofL assistant.
Arkansas may have the next Heisman Trophy winner on its team, speedy and powerful running back Knile Davis. He missed all of last season because of a broken ankle, but is back and is as fast and as powerful as he was before being hurt.
Petrino isn't the first football or basketball coach with a wife and children to get in trouble for straying.
I know of one coach who was hired to replace another. The first day on the job, the secretary in the coach's office closed the door and said, "The former coach and I had a thing going and we can too."
The coach showed her the door and told her not to come back.
It Pays To Win
There's no telling how many other coaches have been involved in similar affairs. It usually is overlooked because it seems to go with the territory.
And if the coach is a winner, schools usually look the other way.
If a winning coach in the football-mad Southeastern Conference wanders, the man who wants to fire him may be chopping off his own head.
Stay tuned for what comes out of Fayetteville, Ark.

So the house I just finished remodeling, and am now living in, has a small mouse problem. We have caught a couple of mice, and suspect there may be more. Catching the mice does little good, if more mice are just walking on in. I have walked around the entire house, and have found no voids > 1/4" in diameter. There were a few smaller voids (no larger than 1/8") around entry points for wiring/plumbing, which I filled with expanding foam. My question now is- how do I find where the mice are entering the house? Any tips?
Sprinkle flour or talcum powder on the floor. Mice will leave tracks in the powder, eventually revealing entry points or nests. You don't have to blanket the entire floor, just near the walls/borders of the rooms, and "as needed" until you have the evidence you seek. Keep in mind that their typical range is 12-20 feet from their nest.
Look for mouse droppings.
Use an ultraviolet light to find urine stains.
Use light. If you can make the room dark, look for sunlight shining through cracks from outside. Or, wait until dark and shine a light through possible cracks, either from inside or outside, and have an assistant on the other side alert you to any light shining through.
Watch for drafts. If you're in a cold climate such as Minnesota, wait until it is -20 degrees Fahrenheit, so that you can feel the cold air blasting through the mouse hole. (That's how I found an entry point recently. The cold air was flowing into a basement crevice such that I could see a spider web waving in the air. Turns out there was a crack where an addition had been put on the house. This was confirmed by shining a light as described above.)
I've found that mice can get in almost anywhere. I don't know how your house is setup but I have a tree which is relatively near my roof. I've had mice get up on the tree, climb up and into the roof vent. If I were you I'd just drop some money on a good exterminator (check the Better Business Bureau to find a reputable one) and have them get the house a good once over. As for checking on your own, I'd look for a trail of mouse droppings or urine sprays. Mice don't really have any sort of bladder control and just let go wherever they are and leave droppings everywhere so you might find some near the holes that they frequent.
DISCLAIMER: I only say drop the money on a professional because I REALLY have a strong aversion to mice and bugs, especially when they're in my house. I don't mess around when I see one, I go right for the phone and call a pro so my reaction (as well as my response here) is tempered by this aversion. I'm far from an expert on the various vermin that may get into a house, but that would be my recommendation since mice are pretty clever when it comes to squeezing into small spaces.
Make sure you remove the food source they are eating. Stop giving them a reason to try and get into your house.
If you have a brick house you can put small shreds of paper towel in the weep holes and if you notice any getting pushed out you have found and entry point. Either way these are the most common entry point I know of.

Is there any way to make file A has exactly same file permission as file B without specify permission like 777. For example, usually I
ls file B and check its permission setting. Then 'chmod ??? fileA'. However, I am looking for a command like
chmod --argument_to_copy_file_permission fileA fileB
Please advise.
EDIT: By the way, is there any command to see file permission in digit mode (like 777), thanks.

I recently convinced my room mates to cut the cord and go cable free, and they've found it pretty great so far. I'm in the process of setting up a pretty sweet, mostly automated home theater setup that revolves around an Apple TV, and part of this automation uses stuff like Sick Beard, Couch Potato, and the Transmission daemon.
I've got everything mostly working, including the web interfaces for all of the above services, but I'd like to make the URL's more friendly than
<ip address>:<port number> so that my room mates, who are not technical in the slightest, can access these services (especially Couch Potato and Sick Beard). I'd like for them to be able to go to a url like
movies.home or
tv.home (I know that collides with a proposed TLD, if you have suggestions on this front as well I'm open) and be able to add shows to Sick Beard or put a movie on Couch Potato's watch list since those UI's are fairly straight forward to use.
I'd like for this name resolution to be done at a network wide level, so that all of our phones and laptops and whatnot can get to the web interfaces without much work or me having to go around and editing everybody's hosts file. I don't care about accessing the stuff from outside of the home network, I only want it usable from our internal network.
I'm not completely sure where to start, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a simpler solution before pursuing a custom DNS server with
BIND since I've never used it before and I wasn't sure if it would do what I want it to do; I was thinking that I'd set up BIND on a box somewhere in the house and then have my wireless router point to that local box as its DNS server then figure out some way to have the BIND box forward all non-home-media related requests to OpenDNS or something. Can BIND even do resolution based on different ports instead of different logical addresses? Anyway. Help is greatly appreciated.

may your feet always be swift.Monday, June 28th, 2010
With our friend from the states visiting, we undertook a (what we didn't know would be so) major project to build soccer goals for the talented and fierce kids of rural Bo He village.
The men folk, B and friend, put in laborious days of metalworking in the heavy Lao humidity.
Our Lao friends and PoP supports stopped by daily to help cleanup, paint, and serve the boys beerlao.
Once in Bo He, the epicness of the project was far from complete. Villagers had to carry the goals down the hill, across the bridge, up through the village and to the school.
But then, the rowdiest, far-better-than-any-world-cup-game, commenced.
And when we left Bo He, sufficiently exhausted and Beerlaoed, a group of primary school girls, their skirts knotted up around their waists, were tied up in a raucous game, mimicking their new Lao city friends, determined to be serious ass-kicking females.

I'm looking for a word which can be used in any situation to describe something in whatever way you want, i.e it's not a word and just fits in to places..., but is there an actual word which does that?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question

There are quite a few, as a matter of fact. The most popular is 'thingamajig' with its many variants (thingamabob, thingummy, thingy, etc.), 'whatchamacallit', 'whaddayacallit'.
A useful neologism is 'gizmo' which should be used only for small, technological objects, but can have a wider usage, more or less like 'contraption', 'gadget', 'widget' etc.
The terms 'foo', 'bar', and 'baz' are meaningless, are used in computing by a small circle of adepts. They are used in listing, like letters: "let's take A, B, C"
For people, you probably know the use of 'Tom Dick and Harry', but remember that 'whatsit' is a magic word that can be used for anything, both for people and objects
Well, the first word that comes to mind is smurf.
It can act as just about any word you want, it can be use as a noun, a verb, an adjective, and the meaning is completely open.
A term which describes such words is "metasyntactic variable".
The most common metasyntactic variables (in my experience) are "foo", "bar", and (rarely, because the need for a third placeholder is relatively infrequent) "baz". From Wikipedia's article on metasyntactic variables:
With that said, I'd counsel you not to overdo it, lest you fall into the trap of Humpty-dumptyism (the practice of insisting that a word means whatever one wishes it to):
From Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass
I would start with the word blah. You can replace any bit of speech with "blah, blah, blah." It is often used in a snide way, however, for words that are tedious, or in mockery of another person who won't stop talking.
There are variations as well. I've heard blih, blip, bleh, blipity, and bibity. You can add suffixes as needed too. -ish, -y, and -ed would all work. Actually, any amount of humming and hawing while gesturing like an ape can replace any words. Too many intentional meaningless words, though, and it will just look like gibberish.
After that the wachamacallit's and whosit's and so forth can replace any noun, as was already mentioned.
I would like to bring up the curious usage of the F-word, too. It can be used as pretty much any part of speech with nearly any tone, except maybe reverent. Perhaps, with some clever wording, you could replace words with the F-word and your listeners would still understand you.
Really for the extreme flexibility you're looking for the closest word or phrase that I'm aware of that is in common use is "you know" which can be combined with "what", "who", "what I'm talking about" or a small description for claity.
So yesterday I went to the you know where we usually go and, well, you know who showed up, and he's wearing his typical you know, like, thinks he's so stylish and he's not, and then he pulls out one of those you know new phones and he's acting all like he's so you know, like just because he's got a phone he can just be such a you know what.
If we are going with fictional words, Og wins.
Whereas Smurf is always a positive word, and Marklar from South Park is always a noun, Og from The Secret World of Og is every word, except for (according to this random wiki entry) mathematical operators.
I have not read the book so I do not know if the part about mathematical operators is accurate. According to the Wikipedia entry the inhabitants only know one word: "Og!" (EDIT: I suppose operators can exist as such without their being words: Og + Og = Og. But if this is the case, then said word (Og) does not, as the OP asks, stand in for "whatever you want it to mean" unless, in Og, you can express + as a word (plus = Og)).
If you're in Hawaii, Da Kine is exactly what you're looking for.
It is used as a noun, verb, adjective, adverb.
But do note, Da Kine is pidgin English.
You used some in your question: "something," "whatever," etc., are placeholder words to allow whatever or something to be inserted at the readers discretion.
But actually, the first word that came to my mind was...
Which, as Wikipedia notes "According to the film [Mary Poppins (1964), which spawned the popular and exact term here, though variations existed as far back as 1931 according to the article], it is defined as "'something to say when you have nothing to say'".
It is in fact in the Oxford English Dictionary (login required), defined as "A nonsense word" (i.e. a word that has no meaning), though notes that in practice, used by children, "typically expressing excited approbation: fantastic, fabulous."
The word is in fact an adjective, and since it has no meaning, it therefore meets the request that it "describe something in whatever way you want" (though again, in usage it often has an idea of good connotations of "approval"—so the Random House definition on dictionary.com—since the song notes positive aspects experienced by the use of the word).
A somewhat English-sounding one that's common in Terry Pratchett novels is wossname.
I immediately thought of plain old
I was thinking the word Placeholder could mean anything but it might be limited to just nouns.
Blank is my second choice.
If you want a word for an indefinite number, there are "umpteen" and "zillion" (for a very big number). Perhaps "n" doesn't count as word, but its ordinal form "nth" is quite often seen, especially in the phrase "to the nth degree". See
I think that the word
Or disguise it as an adjective:
Or even take the place of an adjective.
As commented below, its meaning usually refers to an antecedent, either verbal or non-verbal, but there are plenty of examples in English where the anaphora is left open:
(ref). Therefore the antecedent can be left as ambiguous as desired. Add to it that the word
I find the ambiguity fits the bill of "a word which can be used in any situation to describe something in whatever way you want". Let us see:
And that is that.
Hodor. The only word uttered by character known by that name in George R. R. Martin's series of novels A Song of Ice and Fire. See http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Hodor, http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Hodor, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxjw-w-V5k4.
Dude, an expression of shock, approval, sympathy, or other strong feeling: Dude! That's one expensive sandwich!

No sufficient depth at QB, S, OL. Gonna be trouble. Franklin and Lane Taylor should have been cut, they were terrible, awful.Hide replies
If every GM was like you, guys like Fred Taylor would've never been given the chance to make a team and ultimately go to several pro bowls. Aaron Rodgers looked awful as a rookies. Ignorance.
No sufficient depth at key positions. Even the ignorant can see that
"Gonna be trouble" You have no idea what TT has up his sleeve, so why agonize over the depth of a couple positions on the roster. You really are a glass half empty kind of guy aren't you?
eaglefades is right on the money. I would add outside pass rusher as another spot of trouble. Matthews and Perry are injury prone and they have nobody else to speak of.
Okay. Try to name more than 5 really good backup QB's who could lead their teams to the playoffs if the starter went down?
Please tell me how having one of the better safeties in the league (Burnett), having two young solid safeties with potential (Jennings / McMillian), and having a player in Banjo who really showed up in practice and the games is not sufficient depth? Once again, please list 5 teams with more than 3 legitimate safeties? That doesn't even take into account Hyde's ability to possibly play safety at some point.
The Packers O-Line depth is a concern but would it be if Bulaga (a first round pick) didn't tear his knee up and Sherrod (another first round pick) didn't have a freak leg injury, and Tretter who they had rated higher than Bakhtiari didn't break his ankle? The line would look remarkably better with those three available. Even with just one of them. Bakhtiari looks like a steal.
So yes, stating that rookies like Taylor and Franklin should be cut who played in completely different systems in college and are trying to transition to a different scheme in the NFL is ignorant. There are dozens of great players in this league who were awful as rookies. Enough with the doom and gloom. You're the type of fan that thinks every position should have a pro bowler and every backup should be starting caliber.
well stated crigs.
@Crigs: Fred Taylor? Several pro bowls? I thought the guy only went to 1 pro bowl, and that's only b/c the players felt bad he'd never made it previously. Also, Taylor wasnt a long shot, he was the 9th overall pick.
Injuries were the problem with Fred Taylor. When healthy he was one of the best RB's in the game. The guy had several seasons with more than 1200 yards and he rarely played a full 16 games. Maybe once or twice in his entire career.
And being a 9th pick really has nothing to do with the argument. Ask Vic Ketchman who was covering the team at the time. He said he was one of the worst running backs on the roster during training camp and the pre-season and then he went on to have over 1200 yards as a rookie. Franklin was still picked pretty high as a 4th rounder.
Crigs, Yet you argued that Taylor made several pro bowls. I was just pointing out your "ignorance." :)
trolls are running out of ammo.
So happy for Jolly. God has given you a second chance so go out there and have an all-pro season.Hide replies
He got a chance...and played his tail off.
Good for him.
Geez -- he played his butt off and Thompson --- not god --rewarded him for it. Go "witness" someplace else and please keep the proselytizing off the football boards.
BTW, Joe Buck, the seriously-inept announcing partner of Troy Aikman, just got engaged to hottie NFL reporter Michelle Beisner -- proof there indeed is no god. Sorry about that ... .
Good Lord GRB, could you stop proselytizing... You atheists are so dogmatic.
I think they should have kept the D lineman Miller.....need to put Coleman ob the practice squad and pick up a legit # 2...otherwise I like it.Hide replies
They will. They have to protect who they have until they find someone.
Interesting that Newhouse is shown beating out Barclay on this depth chart.Hide replies
It's may be an oversight in reporting. Newhouse wasn't shown backing up LT, either, which doesn't jive with past reportage.
Remember this roster is always ever changing. The brass will continue to look for upgrades.
Barrington over Manning. Lattimore is a sp teams core guy. Barrington had the safety late against the Chiefs, seems to be playing well on sp teams.
Boyd over Miller. 7 DL (if you slide Neal to OLB).
Mulumba AND Palmer.
Wow..TT kept his big guys this time around.
Man, Coleman looked bad. Gotta think there is something going down at the QB position.
Nice roster, props to the new UDFAs Banjo (didn't think he had a shot), and Mulumba.Hide replies
kind of surprised they kept 8 d-line men(even if Neal will play OLB at times)....kind of surprised Palmer made it
Even without Worthy, they have quite a few talented big guys. CJ has continued to improve, and Jolly was a complete surprise (to me). Never thought he would come back this strong. It's a testament to that guys heart, even w all his off field problems.
I thought Mulumba would go to the PS, and Palmer would squeak through based on the last three preseason games, since he was drafted. Didn't think both would make it.
Maybe Miller goes to the PS, if eligible. He had some nice moments in the preseason.
Always a shock to look at the depth charts for all NFL teams. Almost every team has developmental types on the backup Oline. There just aren't many guys that can play, obviously.
agreed cheese...if Bulaga, Sherrod, and Tretter were healthy??......I would feel alot better
agreed cheese...if Bulaga, Sherrod, and Tretter were healthy??......I would feel alot better
Dave I agree, it is worth repeating.
It's certainly not a set roster at this point. Anyone who thinks they are going into the season with BJ as A-Rod's backup is nuts, including Coleman. There are at least 3-4 additional moves by TT. That chart means nothing...it has Hyde behind House. If one of the safeties or Haywood goes down; Hyde is the first guy in for sure.
my guesses were pretty good with mulumba over moses, boyd over miller and palmer over manning.
but they were just guesses.
Was Sherrod cut or placed on PUP or IR?Hide replies
Sherrod's on the PUP. I'm sure they'll give him a chance at mid-season and if he's not ready he'll go back on IR. I'm guessing next years training camp will be do or die for him unless he does something this season to make them activate him.
Sure, why not give him another year...in fact, why not give him five more years? If you aren't convinced he's worthless yet, you never will be.
How about we completely break your leg, scrub, and you can tell us how you feel in a year from now?
you haven't really seen him healthy....how do you know he is "worthless?"
Scrub knows worthless when he sees it, big mirror I the bathroom.
On the same theme old, he also knows tiny when he sees it.
Brady Quinn and Joe McNight anyone.Hide replies
I'd give Quinn a look but McNight is worthless. I'd rather take a chance on Dwyer or Jawan Jamison at RB.
Do you mean McKnight??? ... Never heard of McNight
McKnight runs a 4.36 40 and has 4.7 yd avg in limited action and can really fly with a screen pass. Worthless?, I was surprised Jets dumped him, maybe some other stuff going on there.
Yeah, Quinn can stay with his brother in law, Hawk, and next year they can move together when they both get cut.
I've already organized a rally. Tomorrow at noon, about 3000 Packers fans plus 7000 members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints will at Lambeau Field. We will be chanting:
We hope it will encourage Ted Thompson to sign Tim Tebow.Hide replies
Are you INSANE ???????
No, Lobo, he merely thinks he's funny, but doesn't get why the rest of us give him no credit (example: Tebow's not Mormon).
Tebows not a Mormon...
Not every team needs a circus.
Tebow was cut by the jets....nuff said
Morman? Yikes!
Its out of our hands If God wants Tebow in Green Bay then he will be here soon. He seems like the kind of weirdo McCarthy and Thompson would go for so I am little concerned. When Aaron goes down, when Barclay and the rookie cant protect him, we will be glad we have Tebow and God playing QB
tebow can't run the film projector much less this offense.
harrell has a better arm.
all in all, tebow is a joke for an NFL QB.
Gotta love packer blood, he would be all over someone if they said same thing about AJ Hawk.
who's talking about aj hawk?
tebow sucks.
So does Hawk but you stick up for him all the time.
Interesting moves by the Packers some cuts I question but MM and TT know more on the inside stuff than I do... I was surprised Manning got cut hopefully a PS he will go but I think he will find a place for him elsewhere...Hide replies
Not to mention the outside stuff.
plus one, bob.

The Innovation Commercialization Center started as a result of the Innovation Act of 2000, passed by Kentucky's General Assembly. It exists to help entrepreneurs get their business ideas off the ground. There are six centers across the state; one of those centers is located in Bowling Green at Western Kentucky University's Center for Research and Development on Nashville Road.
The ICC looks for potential clients who have ideas capable of expanding to the national level; clients like the Mills family fit those criteria, with their business, hitcents.com. It's one of six clients of the Central Kentucky ICC.
So how exactly does the Innovation Commercialization Center work? It's a non-profit organization sanctioned by the state, to help the local economy by helping entrepreneurs. Funding comes from Kentucky's Office for the New Economy and is equally matched by the city and local interests like Western Kentucky University. Once a candidate is approved, the ICC helps to develop a business plan and access to funding; $7,500 at first, with the potential for $25,000 in grants and $25,000 in loans.
The current set-up is only a stepping stone for the center as they collaborate with WKU on big plans for the future. Director of the Central Kentucky ICC, Buddy Steen, says in about a year, there should be a formal small business incubator established at the building. The incubator would enable small businesses to rent space at a reduced rate, as well as share resources like a copy center, secretarial and I.T. services, all to reduce overhead costs.
If you have an idea for a product or service you think could be a real hit, you can get more information on the ICC, by logging on to www.kyicc.com and then click on "regional offices" and "Central Kentucky ICC" to get to the local page.
You can also call Buddy Steen at the Center at 270-792-3414 or you can e-mail him at: email@example.com.

Recently, I've started getting headaches mainly after leg-pressing on the machine. They used to be pretty short and only last a few minutes, but they got worse and now they last for the full work-out + a few hours after I leave the gym. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there anything I can do about it?

Like squats, leg press is one of those exercises where you may see stars if your blood circulation is bad, you are dehydrated, or you are not breathing correctly. If it is none of that, it could just be benign exertion headaches.
Whatever it is, I would see a doctor immediately. Not to scare you, but if you have an underlying condition then doing leg presses is just asking for an aneurysm. Better to get an MRI then be sorry.
in addition to what was said already, try drinking more water. not freezing cold ice water, but cool or room temperature. dehydration is what starts the headaches, and hydrating should make it feel better.
Are you taking protein shakes before you start training? You might be allergic to whey (milk) which causes headaches for me.
Otherwise its likely that you are simply dehydrated.

11 Old War Photos You Won't Believe Aren't Fake (Part 2)
War is like a hellish meat grinder that takes a steady stream of humans in one end and pushes a misery shower of blood, guts, and despair out the other. As it turns out, it is also a recipe for wacky pictures. We've already told you about some of the strangest war images ever captured, and now we bring you even more real photographs that are almost too ridiculous for words.
#11. "Special Delivery!"
Imperial War Museum
It comes with a little flag labeled "bang!"
OK, this is clearly a screenshot from a Marx brothers movie. There's no way air raids have ever been as imprecise as a game of beer pong, even back when airplanes had to be pedaled into the sky and could only be flown by pilots weighing less than 130 pounds. Also, who is taking the picture? World War I flying aces didn't have dashboard cams, and unless a helpful gremlin stowed away with the entire trunkful of equipment required to take a photograph 100 years ago, this photo is obviously staged.
Actually, it turns out that during World War I, bombing enemy targets was basically like playing darts with explosives, because the bombs had to be aimed and dropped by hand. Correction: a badly shaking and sweating hand.
However, that's not exactly what's happening in that picture, because that picture wasn't taken on an airplane. It was taken on a SSZ-class blimp, a setup so desperately primitive it was essentially a boat dangling beneath a giant balloon.
Early Aviation Image Archive
They were supposed to kill people, but they kept going on whimsical adventures instead.
A small team of soldiers could sit inside this airborne canoe as it spit in the face of God and drop satchels of bombs on the populace below like a bunch of disgruntled Christmas elves, because as this article demonstrates, old-timey war frequently set the benchmark for unintentional comedy.
#10. World War II Was Fought with Action Figures
Wojciech K/Dark Roasted Blend
Its mother was a tank. No one can identify the father.
Apparently, COBRA was instrumental in the Allied victory over Nazi Germany.
The nefarious contraption in that photo is most likely the Soviet Progvev-T, a gas-dynamic minesweeper. Weighing in at 37 tons, it consisted of a tank with a MiG-15 jet engine strapped to its roof, which would superheat a kerosene flame that, when pointed at the ground, would ignite and detonate any mines lying in wait. Yes, the Soviets built a tank for the specific purpose of shambling across the countryside and blasting superheated jet flame at the ground until it exploded.
Really, though, this was far from the most ridiculous-looking vehicle on tank treads. Take the German SdKfz 2, for example:
2nd Armored Productions
"Did someone weld two bikes back to back? HOGAN!!"
The SdKfz 2, or Kettenkrad, was an armored motorcycle that saw extensive use on the Eastern front, because it was one of the few things that didn't sink into the gray oceans of mud the Russians called roads. However, this probably didn't stop the Russians from making fun of the Germans for riding around on golf carts like a bunch of assholes.
German Federal Archives
"Ignore them. They're just jealous."
#9. Flying Tanks
Keystone/Hulton Archive/Getty Images
Magnets. They do it with magnets.
Nope. Whatever is supposed to be happening in this picture cannot possibly be real. There is no way a 15-ton mobile fortress with the top speed of a dead snail could ever become airborne. That's either a toy or a paper cutout of a tank that someone dangled in front of the camera with fishing wire. No other explanation makes sense.
But that picture does indeed show a M3 light tank kissing the sky. The M3 could achieve speeds of 36 mph -- probably not enough to help the Duke boys escape Rosco P. Coltrane, but more than sufficient to jump a small ravine. In fact, most tanks were way faster and more mobile than we give them credit for. For example, the British Cromwell tank boasted an impressive weight of 31 tons and a top speed of 40 mph, which, when combined with a ramp, transformed it into an aircraft wrought from hatred and destruction:
vja Military Models
"Please put your tray tables in the 'Fuck you, Hitler' position."
#8. Flamethrower Fireworks
National Archives
No, that's not cat fur. Look down.
This photograph has the unique distinction of being both 100 percent authentic and exactly what it looks like. That is a bunch of soldiers spraying jets of flaming death into the night sky, because apparently there either wasn't quite enough war going on or the Army had a bunch of spare flamethrowers laying around.
Bucking the trend of catchy songs and dance numbers, the Army War Show, which started in 1942, aimed to raise money for the war effort by dazzling enraptured crowds with the discharging of horrific deadly weaponry. The flamethrower display took place in New Orleans, but other shows (which always performed for sold-out venues) included such acts as weapons firing, cavalry riding, tanks crashing cars, and "jeep comedy routines," which is a phrase that makes no immediate sense and cannot possibly be defined to our satisfaction. Why not incorporate comedy into the flamethrower bit? The jokes practically write themselves.
#7. Cartoon Supervillain Headgear
via Museum of Retro Technology
The source of those Disney anti-Semitism rumors.
Actually, those guys in the photograph are two German Feldartillerie (field artillery) soldiers, which means that what's strapped to their heads is most likely some kind of device meant to detect the approach of enemy planes (while risking serious hearing damage should someone happen to fire artillery in their immediate vicinity).
Nowadays that job is performed by radar, but up until World War II, enemy detection was done entirely by sight and sound, meaning soldiers had to try to spot approaching planes, tanks, and infantry with their eyes and ears and nothing else. Sure, you may spend most of the day looking like a cartoon character, and it would immediately become completely useless the moment any fighting started, but a tenuous, unreliable advanced warning system is still better than getting bombed out of the blue.
#6. The Military's Top Secret Car Plane
via NavSource Naval History
To keep the secret, they shot all 150 spectators.
Despite appearances, this is not Doc Brown trying to hit 88 miles per hour in a budget time machine, nor is it Clark Griswold steering his family into well-intentioned-yet-calamitous oblivion. No, this is a photo of the USS Enterprise dumping old cars off the coast of the Philippines in 1978, which is a sentence that somehow manages to make even less sense.
In the days before the environment was invented, it was apparently business as usual for servicemen to get rid of unwanted automobiles by casting them into the sea. The car in the photograph appears to be a Plymouth Savoy, and the reason it's leaving behind a trail of white smoke is because it's being launched by the steam catapult system normally used to assist jet fighters during takeoff. Slapping Captain Planet in the face has never looked so spectacularly awesome.

Endoscopic Band Ligation
(Esophageal Band Ligation)
Esophageal varices are abnormal blood vessels (veins) that develop in the esophagus. They have abnormally thin walls, and the blood pressure within them is very high. This combination makes esophageal varices very dangerous, because they can burst and cause life-threatening bleeding.
Endoscopic band ligation is the use of elastic bands to treat the varices. It is done as part of an upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy.
Banded Blood Vessel
Reasons for Procedure
This procedure is done to prevent or treat bleeding from esophageal varices.
Possible Complications
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
- Painful swallowing
- Bleeding
- Esophageal damage
- Infection
Some factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Alcohol use disorder
- Bleeding disorder
- Active bleeding
- Advanced age
- Heart or lung problems
- Use of certain medications
- Smoking
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
- Your doctor will likely do a physical exam and order blood tests.
- Do not eat for 8-12 hours before the procedure.
- If you have diabetes , discuss your medications with your doctor.
- Arrange for transportation after the procedure. You should not drive for 24 hours after the procedure.
- Talk to your doctor about your medications. You may be asked to stop taking some medications up to one week before the procedure.
- Local—You may be given an anesthetic solution to gargle, or your throat may be sprayed with a numbing anesthetic.
- You may also be given a sedative to help you relax.
- Moderate sedation—You may be given medications through an IV. Other medications will be given to treat any pain you feel during the procedure.
- General anesthesia—If you are having the procedure due to uncontrolled bleeding you may need to have general anesthesia. You will be asleep during the procedure.
Description of the Procedure
For this procedure, you will lie on your left side. If you are not intubated a mouthpiece will be placed to help keep your mouth open. An assistant will be in the room to monitor your breathing and heart beat. You may also be given oxygen through your nose. A suction tube will be used to clear the saliva and other fluids from your mouth.
A lubricated endoscope will be placed into your mouth. It will be passed down your throat and into your esophagus. The scope will have a small light and a camera. The doctor will watch the images on a video monitor. Air will be passed through the scope to help your doctor see your esophagus. The doctor will be able to locate the enlarged vein.
Instruments will be passed through the scope. The enlarged tissue will be sucked into the device's chamber. One or more bands will be placed around the tissue to clamp off the blood supply.
Will It Hurt?
You will usually feel some pressure and discomfort, but not pain, during the procedure. After the procedure, your throat may feel irritated and sore.
Post-procedure Care
At the Care Center
You will be taken to a recovery area until the effects of your medications have worn off. In most cases, you will be observed for about an hour. If you feel well, you can then go home.
At Home
After returning home, you should do the following:
- Follow your doctor's instructions regarding your diet.
- Avoid driving or using heavy machinery for at least a day after your procedure. Sedatives may slow your reaction time.
- Avoid drinking alcohol for at least a day after your procedure.
- Get plenty of rest.
In the days or weeks after your procedure, the tissue that was banded will slough off.
Follow-up with you doctor as directed. You may need additional procedures.
Call Your Doctor
It is important to monitor your recovery. Alert your doctor to any problems. If any of the following occur, call your doctor:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Bleeding from the mouth
- Increasing pain
- Nausea and vomiting
- Bloody vomit
- Difficulty swallowing
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- Lightheadedness or weakness
- Bloody or dark black stools
- Severe abdominal pain
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

In episode 6 of Game of Thrones season 1 Tyrion requests a trial by combat and asks for a champion. Some guy that I have no idea who he was volunteered and won. Who was that and where did he come from?
The champion was Bronn, he was in the tavern when Catelyn abducted him on behalf of all the bannerman and he was a mercenary in those troops.
On the ride to the Eyrie, they have a slight bonding moment and Bronn decides that allying himself with Tyrion would be more profitable due to him being a Lannister, and, I belive in secret, respect Tryion's attitude towards life.
It was Bronn, a sellsword who took up as the Imp's champion for wealth. He met the Imp when Lady Catelyn was at inn and called forth men to sieze the dwarf. He fell in with the other Vale men for rewards, but grew close to the Imp during the journey to Eyrie.

Paul Horn, New York University's senior vice provost for research and former IBM executive, will deliver, "The Co-Evolution of Humans and Machines," on Monday, September 24, 5 p.m. at NYU's Jurow Lecture Hall, Silver Center (100 Washington Square East/enter at 31 Washington Place).
The event is free and open to the public. Admission is on a first-come, first-served basis. Please call 212.998.8100 or email email@example.com for more information. Subway Lines: 6 (Astor Place); N, R (8th Street).
Horn, who came to NYU as a distinguished scientist in residence in 2007, was previously senior vice president of the IBM Corporation and its executive director of research. Under his leadership, IBM Research produced a string of technological breakthroughs, including the chess-playing supercomputer, Deep Blue, the world's first copper chip, the giant magneto-resistive head, strained silicon, which allows chips to run up to 35 times faster, and BlueGene, the world's fastest supercomputer.
A number of well-known scientists and technologists say we are on the verge of a "singularity"—a transition in evolution from life as we know it to a post-biological future, bringing an end to the "human era." The boldest of these "singularitarians" predict that the epoch will arrive in less than 30 years. Horn's lecture will outline this line of evolutionary thought while separating fact from fiction.
Reporters wishing to attend must RSVP to James Devitt, NYU's Office of Public Affairs, at 212.998.6808 or email@example.com.

Unanswered: No valid "aps-environment" entitlement string for native iphone app
I have a sencha native app in the app store at present however am having trouble compiling a new version with Sencha Cmd to use push notifications - when registering within the app it errors claiming that there is "no valid 'aps-environment' entitlement string" (and apple even send me an email each time I submit my native app to tell me about this - warning that if I try to use push notifications it won't work)
I'm using Sencha Touch 2.1.0 with Sencha Cmd 220.127.116.116 on Windows 7. I believe i've done the certificate and provisioning steps properly (eg. the app is live in the app store) and i've configured push notifications within itunes connect - then downloaded a new provisioning profile to work with. I've included the package.json property "notificationConfiguration" as "debug" also (which exhausts most of the tips i've found on the forums thus far)
Any help would be appreciated
6 Apr 2013 4:56 AM #2
I've seen a few similar problems for the apple xcode people with this issue too. However they seem to be able to re-create their provisioning profiles on iTunes connect - remove ALL traces of the previous provisioning profile within xcode (including within config files etc) then restart xcode and rebuild and it works. I've deleted previous provisioning profiles from everywhere, redownloaded my developer certificate and provisioning profile but still seems to be not using the new provisioning profile I guess - is it cached somehow within Sencha Cmd perhaps?

To the editor:
Thank you, news media, for allowing this atrocity to balloon so out of control - it's ridiculous.
Each and every time you report about the two teenagers who allegedly raped a girl, you always add "athletes" after their names. They are two teenagers, period. Had they been art students or in the drama club or on the yearbook staff, that would never have been added.
Athletics had nothing to do with the horrible act they allegedly committed, but you've managed to smear the Big Red football team's name beyond repair. How proud you must be.

Let $f(x,y)$ define a surface $S$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with a unique local minimum at $b \in S$. Suppose gradient descent from any start point $a \in S$ follows a geodesic on $S$ from $a$ to $b$. (Q1.) What is the class of functions/surfaces whose gradient-descent paths are geodesics?
Certainly if $S$ is a surface of revolution about a $z$-vertical line through $b$, its "meridians" are geodesics, and these would be the paths followed by gradient descent down to $b$. So the class of surfaces includes surfaces of revolution. But surely it is wider than that?
One could ask the same question about paths followed by
Newton's method, which in general are different from gradient-descent
paths, as indicated in this Wikipedia image:
Gradient descent: green. Newton's method: red.
(Q3.) These questions make sense in arbitrary dimensions, although my primary interest is for surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
Any ideas on how to formulate my question as constraints on $f(\;)$, or pointers to relevant literature, would be appreciated. Thanks!

Kind of........ Your forcing cone dimension is actually the most important thing to worry about, and barrel bore too I guess. If it is too large, no cylinder will be that accurate. And if your forcing cone is much smaller than the bore of your barrel, cylinder alignment will mean nothing also. Too much for me to worry about personally. If it shoots straight, (looks like it shoots fine), load it, shoot it, and quit worrying about it. Every day you worry about that extra one half inch at a hundred yards is one less day you spent hunting rabbits like it was meant to do
Next project is shooting groups with each chamber and seeing which is most accurate and where they hit. Often revolvers are compared to .22 semi autos and said to not be as accurate. Maybe true, but it's also not quite fair as you have six different chambers and unless the machine work and smithing is extremely accurately done, there's no way all 6 will shoot to the same point. Like different guns like different ammo, it's because of minute differences in machining and construction. So when you're shooting or sighting in a revolver, you're really sighting in some kind of average 'tween all six chambers. I imagine some chambers will shoot different ammo better and worse, too, but I'll stick to the Winchester that's been the most accurate.

Spillway Creek Repairs
The flood of 2009 removed a number of habitat structures from the Spillway Creek section of the Lower Mountain Fork River and changed the benthic topography of the river significantly. Since the flood Spillway Creek has been a bedrock dominant stream and very little pool habitat remained.
Throughout the summer of 2010 we developed a plan to improve the habitat within Spillway Creek by reconstructing conservation pools along the stream. We added 12 new pools to the stream utilizing logs provided by the Pushmataha Wildlife Management Area and with the assistance of the Corp. of Engineers, the Lower Mountain Fork River Foundation, Oklahoma Department of Tourism, Martin Marietta Materials, and Warren Cat.
The pools were constructed by laying a log perpendicular to the stream and burying it as far underground on either side of the stream as possible. Once the logs set the grade we back filled the pool with large cobble to create habitat for macro-invertebrates. We also added boulder clusters in the pool to create overhead cover for resting trout. As a result of the structures that were implemented, the water level increased in the pools which allowed water to rise up to the vegetation that was overhanging the stream and inundate the undercut features of the bank, which in turn created more beneficial habitat for trout. A small but noticeable reduction in stream speed also assists with wade fishing. Prior to enhancement the fast moving shallow water racing through Spillway Creek, along with the slippery nature of the substrate made for extremely difficult wading.

While reading about a few cryptographic systems, I noticed that we always assume the communication channel is not secured. Why is this assumption made? And, why the effort is being put into designing cryptographic systems rather than working on making these communication channels more secure? I know the question is basic, but really cannot find a complete answer.
The goal of cryptography is to create these secure communication channels. However, keep in mind that a secure channel is more than just an encrypted channel. A secure channel should be able to provide confidentiality (using encryption), data integrity (using something like signatures), and data authentication (using something like certificates, MACs). The goal of cryptography is to create these properties to make a "secure channel" out of an unsecured channel.
Note that some cryptosystems build on top of other types of channels. For instance, in public-key cryptography, you generally need to assume that you have access to a authenticated channel for key exchanges (which is a stronger assumption than a completely unsecured channel).
If you already had a secure channel, you wouldn't need any cryptography. So if you're reading about cryptographic systems, you're reading about how to make things secure. Now, if you want to make a secure communications channel, the first thing you need is a communications channel.
Any time you transmit information you have have to send it through some kind of medium ( air, wire, optical fiber, ect.). The medium can be tapped into at any point by an adversary and is thus considered insecure.
