Some parts are wear items - tires, tubes, cables, brake pads and chains. They are expected to be replaced as needed.

If we all had to use that schedule - we would have drained our trust funds by now.Originally Posted by claydough001

It seems that every time I do a leg-intensive cardio workout, like stair climbing, intense elliptical machine, or running more than 3-4 miles, my legs take forever to bounce back. They don't hurt so much as they just feel heavy and lethargic. I try to do cardio every other day, but my legs seem to only allow intense cardio once or twice a week. What are some strategies for combating this, so that I can do intense cardio at least 3x a week?

I have a similar issue as I regularly play football so I try to run hard. I experience soreness especially in my thigh and calf muscles.
I suggest you do some warm down and stretching after the exercise, this will help you bounce back sooner.
I also have the benefit of a back yard swimming pool and after football I do a few laps and also some running in the shallow end. The combination of the cold water and the light exercise seems to be a big help. Maybe you can join a gym that also has a swimming pool.
Also be careful as your body might be telling you that it can only handle two sessions a week.
This might be tough to hear, but you should also consider the fact that not everyone is gifted with a body that can handle pro-athlete levels of activity.
If your legs are constantly tired/heavy, and you see no improvement (and ESPECIALLY if you see backwards progress), I would say your body is telling you it's not ready for that level of activity (at least not yet).
Back it off a bit, let your legs recover, and try easing into things. I'm not saying you shouldn't push yourself, but at the same time, there is such thing as overtraining, and at that point all the time you put into your training is counterproductive and wasted. Stubbornness can be the enemy of progress sometimes.
A cold whirlpool daily does wonders for recovery. I always experienced tired legs and aching knees during my entire football career. Only a dip in the cold pool would help refresh my legs. It forces increased bloodflow to the legs, which results in better recovery.
Without access to a cold whirlpool, a cold bath in which only your legs are immersed or perhaps a quick swim in a pool of any kind would be helpful.
A lot depends on what you mean by "intense" leg-based cardio, and what the rest of your fitness support is like. Consider the following options:
As most people are saying, you need to make sure you warm up, stretch before, and stretch after. There are also a few other things you can try:
Is cardio the only type of exercise you get? I'm a runner, and it's very important to also do some leg strengthening exercises to build muscle (e.g. squats, lunges, etc). If you're not doing these, give it a try on your off days. If you are doing it - how often? Perhaps the reason why you can't handle cardio every other day is because you're also doing other types of exercises that work your legs on the days you're not doing cardio?
In addition to normal stretching, have you tried tennis ball stretching? (Scroll down for the video demo) This is especially important for your quads. Lay on the floor face down, put the tennis ball under your quad, and bend and straighten your knee. It gives you a deeper stretch, kind of like you're ironing the muscle. You can also get foam rollers or noodles (the kind that are used as floats in pools) and roll back and forth on those (this is really good for your IT band).
Make sure you're eating good recovery foods too - in my opinion low-fat chocolate milk is the best recovery drink to have after a hard workout, but you need to make sure you're eating a balanced diet as well.

I started setting my fore/aft by using the "hands off" method (being able to balance leaning forward with no hands). This occurs with the tip of my seat 8.5 cm behind the BB. But, at this point, when I get low, in the drops or aero bars, my speed & power drops like a rock. Moving back to 9 cm, I can get very low, without power loss. At 9.5 cm, my power drops significantly when I get into an upright position! (At least I know at what setback I'm the fastest!) But, does this sound right? Is it normal to have such a small range -- or, nearly no range, in this case -- in which I can efficiently pedal? Or, does this indicate a problem with my fit? (If I raise or lower my seat just 5 mm I also experience a significant loss in speed/power.) This also makes me wonder how time trialist get in to such a forward position. If I did that, apparently I'd end up going backwards! Any ideas?

It is not unusual to have a very small range of position which allows for your most efficient pedaling position.
It is a little unusual for it to be quite that drastic a change. Are you accounting for the change in saddle extension by adjusting your seat height as you move the saddle for and aft?
If not, I expect that it is more the extension length than your fore aft positioning which is affecting you.
By the way, 7-9cm behind the BB center is fairly far back when measuring from saddle tip. Most people are in a 2-5cm range, unless they are unusually tall or have unusually long femurs for their height. You may want a professional to take a look at your fit.
I hope that is helpful.

Bullying can happen at any age, but here recently the students most affected are in their adolescent to teenage years, especially around the Wiregrass.
This time we wanted to see what children really thought about the issue in our area.
High school, it's a time where self identity is important, and many students have a hard time finding out who they are.
Being bullied while going to school does not help.
We sat down with seven students at Dothan High School, and it didn't take long for some of the students to admit they have dealt with bullying before.
How many of you have experienced bullying? Just raise your hand...
Five out of seven, but they all had something to say about bullying.
"The main thing in bullying people are like nervous, to come and like say, well this is like my personality, can you accept me for who I am," says 10th grader Destiny Snell.
"You're gonna be bullied, if you appear as a target, you're less likely to be bullied if you have self confidence and you know that I am who I am and that I not afraid to do or say what I think," says 12th grader Patrick Rodgers.
"Certain people pick on those targeted areas, you know your inner confidence those deficiencies," says 12th grader Justice Black
"Well I don't believe in bullying, I feel like if you have something to say about somebody, it's just better to tell them, so that it doesn't end up getting to them. I mean it's just easier to say what you think to the person," says 10th grader Brianna Michalaka.
11th grader Darlene Nguyen says the bullying has been so bad over the years, she has felt bad about herself.
"I think I am not worth anything," says 11th grader Danielle Nguyen.
For her walking these halls can be cold and empty.
"Maybe if I wasn't born, it wouldn't be me that was cornered, that was centered in that situation, or maybe if I wasn't there, it wouldn't be so hard. If I wasn't this race maybe i wouldn't get pointed at," says 11th grader Danielle Nguyen.
What Danielle expressed concerned her peers.
"You are not the only one going through this," says 12th grader Patrick Rodger.
These teens believe some behavior mimics adults.
"What you see on TV, what you see on the streets, what you see in school, what you see from anyone around you, it's your environment,, it's just monkey see monkey do," says 11th grader Theresa Do.
It's a behavior child psychiatrist Jerilyn McCleod is seeing more often at her office in Dothan.
"Whether it's teasing, whether it's hitting, whether it's being intimidated," says Dr. Jerilyn McCleod.
It's a problem these students want to end before someone else is hurt.
There was a counselor present at the interview for the students, and she says she has made the commitment to work with each student on the issue of bullying.

Pretty much the opposite of intercourse, except with clothes on. It consists of male/female couple rubbing up against each other for sexual pleasure.
Damn I literally just had an orgasm for the outercourse.
I know! It was great.

Basically having intercourse, without really going in. Hence, outercourse, also known as dry sex or dry humping. Some people prefer this since there is no direct skin-to-skin contact, meaning... No STD's or pregnancy (usually). Can lead to the point of orgasm for both male and female.

Dry humping or grinding. Sex is intercourse, as in the penis is put "in" the vagina. Fooling around without penetration and staying "out" of the hole is therefore outercourse.
I'm dating this christian chick who's saving herself for marriage. It's not all bad though. We get to have outercourse.
by heatseekerflex November 14, 2013
The opposite of intercourse. Sexual outercourse with the creases of your body. "Under chin, back of neck, elbow, under knee, armpit, etc.."
"We just had some neat outercourse!!"
"I love me some outercourse!!"

How to Install Ubuntu on Android! states "your Android OS must support loop devices". What is a loop device?
The Wikipedia page on loop devices explains this pretty well. It's basically a "pseudo-device" (i.e. a device which doesn't exist physically) that allows a file to be treated as a block device (for example, a hard drive).
You need support for it because the Ubuntu system is stored as a .img file, which is essentially created to be a file representation of a filesystem or disk partition. By mounting it on a loop device you can access the file as though it really was a whole filesystem, thus creating a sort of "virtual" partition (or disk) for Ubuntu to live on.
Basically, it allows you to make your phone think that an image file is a separate storage area/device.

MADILL, OK - The Marshall County Sheriff's Office is teaming up with the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics to help keep prescription drugs off the street and out of the hands of abusers.
The Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics said prescription drug abuse is a growing epidemic in Oklahoma and safely disposing the medication is critical in keeping drugs off the streets.
"If you are not going to use them, bring them down to the sheriff's office and get rid of them so young people or people who arent supposed to don't get ahold of them," OBN Director Darrell Weaver said.
Tuesday, OBN stopped by the Marshall County Sheriff's Office to set up a drop box for people to bring any unused pills.
"We need to really tackle and really wrap our arms around the prescription drug problem in Oklahoma," Weaver said. "This is one of the ways we can do that."
Marshall County Sheriff Bob Wilder said, "We continually have citizens call and wanting to dispose their prescription drugs and we really have had no means to do that until this point."
Wilder said he hopes residents will take advantage of the drop box since it's an easy way to help prevent violent crime, related to illegal drug use.
"People become aware of it, especially those people who have been ill for some time with sicknesses that require pain medication," Wilder said. "We have people breaking in just for the purpose of stealing those drugs."
"We've taken back around the state, eleven tons of unused, unwanted prescriptions in the last year and we believe there are prescriptions in cabinets here that need to come out," Weaver said.
OBN said they will be working over the next couple weeks to install a drop box in each one of Oklahoma's 77 counties.

My office needs to move files between 2 versions of sharepoint. Currently Sharepoint 2003 is being used and the files from here need to be moved to Sharepoint 3.0. Also the 2 sharepoint editions are on different servers.
Is there any way to export/import other than manually uploading files to the new sharepoint? What would be the way to export?

Thanksgiving Turkey Traditions at the White House
4 of 10
Richard Nixon
President Richard Nixon did a photo shoot every year with the donated turkey, but there is no record that any of the birds were spared. Nixon does have the distinction of being the first vice president to accept the donated turkey on the president's behalf, which he did in 1955 for President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Turkey fact: Domesticated turkeys are bred and raised to become fat fast. This often causes joint problems for older turkeys whose bones have trouble supporting the weight.

Does anyone have any experience with severe reactions to vaccinations and how to proceed? My 2 month old had a severe reaction to his first round of standard vaccinations.
According to the CDC, you should look for...
If that's what you're seeing, I hope you called a doctor right after posting your question. If not, do so now. If it's not severe, keep an eye on him and call your pediatrician if it persists. Things like mild soreness, fussiness, or redness at the injection site aren't usually a concern except for being uncomfortable for him.
In addition to Karl's point, most people have a reaction to vaccines. It is just more worrying when it is a child as it can be so difficult to gauge seriousness.
Common reactions, as j.rightly said, include fever, loss of appetite, and being tired.
If anything else happens, call the doctor - but also, call them if you are worried at all by anything out of the ordinary.
Especially if this is your first child it can just be very tricky to know what is serious, so take the safer route.
My wife's brother and cousin both developed autism immediately after getting their MMR vaccine. They had a severe reaction that included fever and seizures and they were autistic afterwards.
It is believed that some people's bodies aren't able to deal with the mercury in the vaccines.
We will not be giving our children any vaccines. Vaccines were not responsible for the decline in diseases anyway and do more harm than good: http://childhealthsafety.wordpress.com/graphs/

Enrique Olvera
Mexico's most famous chef on authenticity and why his countrymen cooking abroad should come home
WHEN CHEF ENRIQUE OLVERA OPENED his restaurant, Pujol, 13 years ago, his only goal was to serve "solid, tasty food" and be "the best restaurant in the neighborhood," he says. But that neighborhood was Mexico City's Polanco, the dining epicenter for a city of 8.5 million, and Olvera's budget was so small that his wife had to paint the walls. Since then, Pujol has far surpassed its initial aims: It's now widely thought of as Mexico's finest restaurant—and the 36th best in the world, according to the much-scrutinized S. Pellegrino rankings; and Olvera, who trained at New York's Culinary Institute of America before returning home, is the country's most well-known chef. He reached his position by making his cuisine "fancier and fancier, and more complex" over time. Pujol now serves a tasting menu of innovative, sophisticated food that wouldn't look out of place at England's Fat Duck or New York's Momofuku Ko. Olvera is also one of the leading exponents of Mexico's new gastronomy, which combines elaborate, cutting-edge technique with a strong emphasis on local ingredients to create a cosmopolitan cuisine that's at once international yet unmistakably Mexican—paralleling the direction of Mexico City itself.
A visit to the 48-seat Pujol reveals a space-age kitchen containing 27 cooks, including a number of stagiaires who have flown thousands of miles to work for free—one spends hours picking cilantro flowers with tweezers; another is making his fifth attempt to perfect an apparently simple dish. As Pujol has become a place that attracts free labor ("if you want to stage here now, you have to wait until 2014," says Olvera), the chef has begun to think more about bringing Mexican cooks home from the U.S. He'd like them to move past the glass ceiling that exists in America (despite the number of Mexicans working in U.S. restaurants, "you rarely see a Mexican head chef in a New York kitchen," Olvera points out) and advance their careers on their home turf. As Olvera guides his cooks through lunchtime service—"Hey, make that blob of sauce more the size of a walnut"; "You: pull your hat down"—he talks about coming home, tradition and innovation, and how a Disney movie changed one of the world's best restaurants.
ENRIQUE OLVERA: "Mexico City is changing quickly, and restaurants are in a really good spot. There's more attention from the rest of the world on Mexican food. Fifteen years ago, I wouldn't have thought it would be considered a high-level cuisine and valued the same as Italian or Spanish food—especially in Mexico. Foreigners have always liked our food, but they thought of it as very causal, almost like street food. Now they're realizing there's sophistication to it, and there's potential to make not just tasty food but also food of a very high quality.
This is a cosmopolitan city with influences from Europe, the local culture and the U.S. It's a very nice mix of the three components, and Mexicans are starting to fall in love with that mix. If you look at Pujol, with the decoration and the food, it's Mexican—you feel like you are in Polanco; you don't feel like you're in New York—but it's not all pink with mariachis and crap like that, because that's not Mexico City.
At the restaurant we used to do a lot of reinterpretations of traditional Mexican dishes, but then we got tired of it and started trying to create new dishes with a very strong Mexican base. Until two or three years ago, all the ingredients had to be Mexican and they also had to be authentic, so, for example, we wouldn't use parsnip. But you know that movie Ratatouille? In the beginning, the head chef, Gusteau, is on TV and he says, 'You cannot limit your creativity because of the place that you were born,' and I remembered that later and figured it was true. So we started incorporating ingredients that are originally from other parts of the world. We said, 'If it grows in Mexico, fine, we use it.' For example, now a lot of Mexicans eat broccoli. It's the second-largest crop in the center of the country, so why shouldn't we do broccoli? We brought in a little more of our own vision. That was the first year we got on the list of 'The World's 50 Best Restaurants.'
Most people think they have to choose between tradition and doing modern food. We do both—they can coexist nicely in a dish and definitely on a menu. You always cherish where you come from, but I also have the need for new sensations, and to improve on those old traditions. It's not just about innovation for its own sake—it's to get to a better dish. For example, when you nixtamalize corn to make tortillas, the traditional recipe is to boil the corn with limestone, let it sit overnight outside, then grind it at the mill. But perhaps you can get to a better masa if you sous-vide the corn at 65 degrees, without the huge temperature shock. You might, so why not do it? You try it, and if it's better, you change it; if it's not, you keep doing the traditional style. If you were an architect, it would be really stupid to be building houses like you were 50 years ago. The kitchen's the same thing. If you want tradition to be alive, you have to keep doing things with it. Time will tell who's doing good stuff.
The Mexican cooks in the U.S. didn't go there to cook; it's just poor people that have no opportunities, that don't see a future in Mexico, so they go to the U.S. Once they arrive, they have very few options for work. My dream—and I think it's the dream of a lot of people here—is that they don't need to go there and feel unwanted. If they go, it's fine, but they should be hired. People should call you and say, 'I want you to come and work at my restaurant,' like they do with other nationalities. It's the nature of how it works and I understand that. But if we can change that a little it'd be nice.
I don't think cooks abroad realize Mexico has changed cuisinewise. And when they come back they see there's this huge potential. I think we should spread the word that there are good restaurants here in Mexico. If you compare the amount of money you make and the quality of life, it's almost the same. Yes, in New York you might earn $60,000 as a pastry chef, and here you might earn $3,000, but the rent is much cheaper, you don't have to be sending money home and you're with your own people. Most of the cooks here have worked in Europe or the States, and when they come back they appreciate the ingredients more and they see the possibilities of working with Mexican products. I also like the idea of Mexicans leaving Mexico and coming back because I did it myself. You realize what you like about your own country when you're outside it."
—Edited from Hamish Anderson's interview with Enrique Olvera.

I originally had:
var actor = new Ext.Actor('lgform', null, true); actor.moveIn('left', null, 1); actor.play();
Thanks for any help!
19 Feb 2007 8:27 PM #2
Actually moveIn/moveOut probably should be ported over. I liked those two.
If you haven't used alignTo before, it is a great function. alignTo received major upgrades in the release, thanks to the help of bmoeskau (Brian). Check out the docs for it.
This would probably work for you:
el.alignTo(document, 'c-l').show().alignTo(document, 'c-c', null, true);
Obviously not quite as clean but more powerful (can moveIn from corners). I will plan on adding short handed moveIn/Out functions.

If you'll read the comments, you'll see a few more people with complaints.
What would be cool is if this actually WERE a drum magazine.. can you imagine how many rounds you could fit in a drum that size? I'd think at least 700-1000 :D (I think that's about the size of an AR drum, right?)
I had nothing but problems with the drum magazine I had. Didn't even get a single use out of it. YMMV
Hi-cap 10/22 mags have always been a gamble for me. I've got two old Ram-Line 30's that work fairly reliably and several complete pieces of junk.
I wish someone could figure out how to make a 30 round 10/22 mag with the reliability of the factory 10 round rotary mag.
I think Calico is the only company that has ever produced a good hi-cap magazine and it is similar to Rugers design, too bad the rest of the rifle isn't as good as a 10-22
@rustybender: Just go with Ruger's BX-25. That thing is solid as a rock, unlike the third party mags....
@theblackgecko: Thanks, I didn't know those existed. I've had my 10/22 for close to 25 years. I gave up on the perfect high cap search years ago but I may have to pick a couple of those up.
@rustybender: Also Rusty they sell this piece of metal where you can snap in up to three standard 10/22 magazines. The circle kind that always work so that gets you to 30 rounds.FYI Good luck
BX-25. No issues so far. All others are junk.
Why would anyone need a 50 round drum? So you can guarantee that you'll hit the target? Learn to shoot and hit the target with a 9 bullet clip. Or use a bow. Should be illegal.
@msz1971: You obviously don't understand the concept of a plinking gun.
The 10/22 is an absolute blast to run a ton of ammo through. I could easily run through a 500 round box of ammo during a day at the range. Reloading a 50 round magazine 10 times sounds a lot more appealing than reloading a 10 round magazine 50 times.
It is not a question of "can I hit the target?" It is "how many times can I hit the target, and how fast?"
@msz1971: Not to support your asinine comment, but when my PD went from revolvers to pistols, (in 1990) one of the old timer's' favorite sayings was: "If you can't hit 'em with the first six, just throw the gun at 'em."
And then of course there was the OTHER axiom: "Why did you shoot him 18 times?" "That's all the bullets I had!"
Seriously though- "Should be illegal?" WHY? To keep them out of the hands of CRIMINALS!? THEY don't care about breaking the law anyway. You'll just make the law-abiding gun owners outgunned.
@msz1971: If you are going to come in here and insult people at least learn the difference between a clip and a magazine.
So to clarify: You're saying given the choice, you would intentionally choose to carry 9 rounds as opposed to 50? Can you explain your logic? Because from where I sit, it really just sounds like some arbitrary complaint for the sake of complaining.
And just because I'm such a nice guy I'll educate you a little bit.. 10/22s don't have "9 bullet clips" they have "10 ROUND MAGAZINES" :D
[ed] @bkarlan: Beat me to it :)
@drchops: sorry for my ignorance on the product...but either way...why would anyone need 50 rounds? Please provide me with a reason! I think 10 rounds is too much....but I can understand that for target practice or even self defense... but 50? If you cant dfend yourself with 10...you shouldnt be carrying a gun...cause your aim sucks.
@tcayer: but the criminals now can easily order this online too.
@msz1971: Just to get this out of the way let me clarify: this isn't marketed for "self defense." It's 22lr - it's for fun.
Anyways.. So basically what you're saying is, "If you're attacked and miss when defending yourself for any reason you deserve to die."
I'm sure you're well aware under high-stress situations your body does all sorts of things, like being flooded with adrenaline. Obviously these things impact your motor skills and the like.
I'm all for trying to understand your point of view, but the thing is you haven't explained any kind of logic.. your answer is basically "Because." I really try to understand the anti-gun crowd, but rarely is there a clearly defined logic behind any of the anti-gun notions.
And just out of curiosity, what is a 'reasonable' number of rounds?
@msz1971: Somebody already explained it to you, for sport. Guns are used for more than hunting and self defense. A lot of us like to go shoot and let off some steam.
Besides, when was the last time a 10/22 with a drum mag was used in a crime?

hey guys im a programming newbie, and for the last week i have been working my *** off for my software design and development class, and we have work due tomorrow, andi have 3 flowcharts i still havent finished,a nd just cant wrap my head around, is anyone willing to help me out with doing them? or doing it yourself, i just really need these done and will accept any help i can get, thankyou!
help with structure chart/flowchart
oh and to add to it, my friend who was in wentworth for programming cant even figure like half of these flowcharts out.
You'll need to post a few more details if you're going to get any help. I'm usually reluctant to say "post the assignment" but if you can post what you've got so far and where you're stuck that would be a good start.
Oh, and your mate in Wentworth for programming? What on earth was he writing, a CRM system for the Mafia or something?

I am considering moduli spaces of sheaves on irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds. I haven't seen a general theory to describe the fundamental group of moduli spaces of sheaves yet. Is there such a theory? What does it mean to have a loop in such a space? Is there any connection to nonabelian Hodge theory?
I also was thinking about homotopy groups of stacks of sheaves. There are two ways I could think of to approach this.
The first is to take the algebraic stack or space and associate to it a topological stack or space. If its a topological space then you can take its homotopy groups. Then homotopy groups of a topological stack are also defined (see papers of Noohi).
The second way is more vague. One could say a map from any topological space $T$ to the stack of sheaves on $X$ is a sheaf of vector spaces on $X \times T$ such that over each point in $T$ it is a coherent sheaf on $X$ with the appropriate restrictions. But then one wants it to be flat over $T$ somehow. Once this is defined you can define homotopy groups in the usual way. They are not going to be sets though unless you mod out by some isomorphisms between sheaves.


text: Well gang let's get started with some drawing fun as we tackle some really cool tutorials for the thirteenth day of December. I have some pretty awesome tutorials for you all but before I get to the good stuff; I figured that I would submit some of the easy lessons first. So to start things off, how about we learn how to draw a caterpillar for kids, step by step? Caterpillars are fun insects to gaze at and study because they come in all sizes, shapes and colors. As you know they either transform into beautiful butterflies or moths. The caterpillar that I drew for you guys is a basic design concept that I'm sure everyone will love. It consists of making a few circles, some legs, eyes, and a really awesome design pattern. Well I guess that's about it for now or at least for this tutorial. I will be back, as you know, with more drawing fun so try and stay tuned in to see what comes up next. Peace out people!

The 5 Craziest Children's Cartoons from North Korea
#2. Ninja Cat Puppets
This cartoon/puppet show reiterates the theme of defending food from invaders. This time it's a cat, tasked with protecting a granary from mice. We probably won't need to tell you that the puppets look creepy as hell:
It's all too easy to imagine this thing vomiting green bile and screaming profanities about your mom.
Despite its horror movie prop looks, the cat-thing isn't much of a fighter. The mice almost get away with the food, but then a soldier cat shows up to save the day.
No real cats were harmed during the production of this film. Probably.
This cat, unlike the first one, is fucking hardcore -- he zooms around at lightning speed and kicks all sorts of ass, finally unleashing a special stun move that looks like it belongs in Dragon Ball Z.
He uses a lens flare to blind his victims, a technique later perfected by J.J. Abrams.
The ranks of the mice are taken apart. Literally. They're stabbed with claws and smashed against walls, and it's shown in no uncertain terms that the few mice that do survive are reduced to little more than empty shells that face a lifetime of nightmares and therapy sessions.
The granary now appears safe, but the soldier cat decides to train the younger cat in case the mice return. The few viewers that are not at this point huddling behind the couch are treated to a Rocky-style training montage.
Some people think the United States and North Korea will never be on friendly terms, but we believe there's always hope for two countries that both understand the power of a montage.
But instead of focusing on his training, the cat daydreams about being tough and scary. The mice, discovering his willingness to take the easy way, trick him into putting on a lion costume. The cat thinks he looks like hot shit, but the fake paws ruin his ability to fight.
It's the exact same strategy Ali used to defeat George Foreman.
With the cat incapacitated, the mice run wild ... until the soldier cat returns to 1) save the day again and 2) traumatize the rest of the viewers.
With extreme prejudice.
The younger cat is humbled, but learns the valuable lesson that training hard is more important than taking shortcuts. Also, if your greatest enemy gives you free stuff, it might not be the best idea to use it.
Behold, the power of socialism!
The moral of the story:
"We must reject capitalism's lazy, decadent culture, and their furries."
#1. North Korean Frogs Are Badass
The importance of agriculture and defending the homeland from invaders are two common themes in North Korean cartoons, which of course makes sense when your country is isolated and constantly on the brink of famine. But how do you stress the need to keep your land free of pests and parasites in a way that's accessible to kids?
If your answer is "With utter insanity, of course," step forward and claim your prize.
"With a frog that can kick your ass!" would also have been acceptable.
Meet the creature we're just going to go ahead and call the North Korean Superfrog. This cute little guy has an adorable red uniform, an adorable water bottle made out of a lemon and an adorable gigantic gun that can shoot lasers and darts. Also, he has a praying mantis girlfriend who drives an itty-bitty motorcycle. Superfrog's got it all, man! And he doesn't mess around either -- in the opening 10 seconds he graphically guns down a dozen or so insects who are trying to eat his plants.
And leaves their bodies as a warning to the others.
But the insects soon come up with a cunning plan: a moth blinds the Superfrog, and the bugs move in and start devouring the crops while he's incapacitated. It looks like a disaster, but the frog calmly remembers his training and sounds the alarm. Cue the mantis girlfriend, who instantly jumps the bugs and starts chopping through them with a freaking sword.
We guess that makes her a preying mantis. Anyone?
Meanwhile, the Superfrog manages to rinse his eyes and, using his superior North Korean marksmanship, goes on a rampage that Rambo would plea for him to dial back.
Thus marking the first time in military history where a frog was effective in combat.
The bugs panic and try to flee, but get mercilessly slaughtered anyway. And we mean slaughtered -- this cartoon's body count easily reaches triple digits. It doesn't skimp on the on-screen violence either -- this bug, for instance, gets shot in the back so hard its head pops off:
Where were scenes like this in ThunderCats?
The aftermath is not unlike a scene from 300, except instead of a melodramatic soundtrack it's the same happy goofy kids' music that seems to play in all of these cartoons.
Above: More disturbing then anything in Fritz the Cat.
Somehow, this makes it so much worse.
The moral of the story:
"The crops will not be safe until absolutely everyone else is dead."

A Bowling Green non-profit agency that faced closing its doors without funding from the city will now remain open.
Saturday, the City Commission voted to cut funding for Primetime Events, a non-profit agency that has organized numerous community events for the last seven years.
But after Primetime board members met with Commissioner Slim Nash to discuss the future of the agency without funding from the city, Commissioners reconsidered their decision.
The city is now agreeing to restore $20,000 in funding for the agency. Without these funds from the city, Primetime events said it would have had to cancel the Balloons and Barbecue Festival planned for September.
The agency also organizes Sand in the City, the annual 10-K, the Chocolate Festival, and Winter Lights, just to name a few.

Botulinum toxin (trade name Botox) inhibits acetylcholine release in neurons and causes botulism, an acute paralytic disease which leads to nerve degeneration and takes a long time to recover. I've read the statement that Botox is the most potent poison we know a few times now and was wondering why exactly it is. All sources I've found only claim that it is, without explanation.
A quick search for a list of LD50 (median lethal dose; half of the people will die with that dosage) gave me 1 ng/kg for Botulinum toxin. This is pretty darn small amount, and in fact the smallest amount within that table.
The biochemical mechanism of BT is pretty well laid out at Wikipedia already. The toxin is likely very potent because (1) it is targeted to neurons; (2) neurons endocytose BT; and (3) the BT light chain's protease activity is able to cleave a wide range of SNARE-complex proteins which effectively disrupt the neurons ability to secrete monoamine neurotransmitters, and peptide hormones. Basically, the neurons are completely inhibited from transmitting nerve impulses.

KABUL - A tightly choreographed ceremony to mark the last day of Gen. John Allen's military command in Afghanistan had the feel of a pep rally for a war effort the majority of Americans have lost faith in, with speakers repeating what has become a tricky word in this nebulous conflict: "victory."
"This is winning, this is what victory looks like, and we should not shrink from these words," Allen said as he handed command of international military forces in Afghanistan to Gen. Joseph Dunford.
Allen cautioned that "our victory here may never be marked by a parade or date on a calendar" but rather by the steady improvement of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), who are set to take over security of the country by the end of 2014. Still, the ANSF has much to overcome, including logistical issues, lack of air support, corruption and a rate of attrition that costs a third of the force each year.
What victory might look like is something two presidents and countless military leaders have struggled to define for more than 11 years.
Calling the twilight of the war effort the "historic birth of democracy" in Afghanistan, Allen said his optimism about the future of the country had grown in his 19 months as commander.
"Victory and winning can be the only outcome," he said.
Allen spent the end of his tenure under a cloud after he was caught up in the email scandal that eventually caused former Gen. David Petraeus to admit an extramarital affair and step down from his post as CIA director. Allen was found to have traded hundreds of e-mails with a Florida woman linked to the Petraeus scandal but was cleared of any wrongdoing after an investigation.
Now, Allen heads back to the U.S. to await the outcome of his nomination to become head of NATO forces in Europe, which had been put on hold until he was cleared of misconduct in the email case.
Since taking the reins in July 2011, Allen has presided over growing the Afghan National Security Forces to their current level of about 350,000 troops, as well as declining casualties among coalition forces as Afghans started doing more of the fighting. But, despite Sunday's triumphant tone, he leaves a country with a still fragile, deeply corrupt government and an insurgency that shows no sign of giving up nor signs of a sincere commitment to negotations. While the Afghan military has grown to about its target strength, major questions remain about its ability to operate independently once all international combat troops leave at the end of 2014.
Analysts note that the Taliban insurgents also perceive themselves as winning the conflict. They say the guerrillas are likely to intensify operations after 2014 with the aim of destabilizing the Kabul government and retaking their former strongholds in the east and south of the country.
Allen hands command to a fellow marine in Dunford, who previously served as assistant commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps.
Dunford spoke for little more than two minutes, continuing the theme of victory.
"ISAF will remain focused on winning," he said, adding "What's not changed is the inevitability of our success."

In other terms, did galaxies grow around black holes at their center?
Note: I am not an astrophysicist. If someone with the relevant expertise finds my analysis of the source paper to be invalid, I would appreciate your help with correcting my answer here.
This is a somewhat complicated question to answer. Black holes do precede galaxies in the form of primordial black holes which arose in the early Universe from quantum fluctuations. Supermassive black holes (that you find at the center of galaxies) may not come from these, however. There are a few possible ways that supermassive black holes may have formed:
Depending on how strictly you define "galaxy" it does seem most likely that the supermassive black holes formed inside early galaxies, but a type of black hole (primordial black holes) did precede galaxies.
This just in, recent observations have ruled out the possibility that SMBHs gain mass only through merging with other black holes. For more, see this Astronomy.com article.

Slashing away at safety net
Almost all of Connecticut's 29 acute-care hospitals struggle financially because they lose hundreds of millions every year caring for the uninsured and underinsured, reports the Connecticut Hospital Association. This impairs their ability "to meet today's obligations and prepare for tomorrow."
Now in the predawn of Obamacare, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy proposes to push this dire situation toward catastrophic for almost all hospitals by halving their reimbursements for uncompensated care next year and eliminating them the year after. He estimates this would save his administration $548 million, which he would apply to his $1.9 billion spending increase in the next biennium. This reduction would be in addition to the $100 million in cuts in reimbursements imposed in December to compensate for runaway government spending this fiscal year.

I tried this plugin, and it actually makes my problems worse not better. It makes the scrolling much more jumpy. I fiddled with the config settings to see if it made a difference, but not really. Its much worse on the iPhone than on my Nexus S.
I have a list of images. Each list item is an image (with two little buttons overlayed on top) with the width set to 100% and the height is dynamic (img tag inside the div pushes the div to the proper height). There are only 66 items in my list at this point, but its scrolling badly already (will need to have up to 150 images).
Has anyone else done a large list of images? Is there anything I can do to make it work better....with or without this plugin?
Will the scrolling with large lists work better in Sencha 2.0?

The BufferedList is designed to deal with the scrolling performance degradation caused by lists with a large number of items. It does this by incrementally rendering items as you scroll, and I can believe that incrementally rendering images (as opposed to text or other faster rendering items) will cause scrolling to be worse. Note that BufferedList does not change the basic scrolling algorithms in Sencha Touch, it only manages the number of items being scrolled.
I wouldn't hold out too much hope for major improvement in 2.0. If you check out the Twitter feed example in 2.0 - http://docs.sencha.com/touch/2-0/tou...ter/index.html - you'll see an example that uses more complex markup with images included, and you'll note that it is usable but definitely not as fluid as native app scrolling. I think the ultimate answer is native browser support for scrolling overflow content - which is, in fact, supported in iOS5, but not really integrated into Sencha Touch yet. You might want to experiment with this yourself - see http://johanbrook.com/browsers/nativ...rolling-ios-5/ for one example.

Hi! Thanks for your list.
But I have an issue. If items in store are not ordered by "groupfield" field, groupheaders are not working correctly.
For example, store items in this order
item1 = {groupfield: '1'};
item2 = {groupfield: '2'};
item3 = {groupfield: '1'},
item4 = {groupfield: '1'},
item5 = {groupfield: '1'},
then list would look something like this:
groupheader: 1
groupheader: 2
P.S. sorry for my english
EDIT: solve the problem by sorting the store

itemTpl using an XTemplate did not work
Thanks for sharing this code.
I am trying to use this to overcome memory issues in long lists on the ipad which crashes my application and found things work. I was using XTemplates to create each item and this did not work, have to debug to see how to get this fixed (got the latest version of the code from github). I am also adding the ListPaging plugin with this to load as one scrolls down to minimize loading from the DB in one shot for long list of records (2000+), and this seems to be working except for when one clicks on the loading spinner when loading.
Will post back with the updated code and solution once it is done, see this as a must needed component in the core system for anyone using this for real data.

I would hope/expect that this will be on the radar screen as core ST functionality sometime soon.

I'm very interested in this component. Could you please send me the code too?
I'm using PR3 right now, but I'm going to port to RC version soon. I'd gladly help with porting of the component to RC.

When one first sees Ponytail live, it is impossible to restrain oneself. Their music are total spastic bliss. A complete sugar high freak out. Smiles, dimples, and grins beam from crowd to member, member to member, crowd to crowd. It is like kids on Christmas morning. Riding roller coasters. Triple dips.
A Ponytail show is full contact aerobics, it's a hedonistic whirlwind for your ears and body. It is the exorcism your stiff loins have been waiting for.
"Not recommended for people with heart conditions or pregnant mothers, but for those of you looking for visceral thrills, this is it." – PASTE
"Presided over by Molly Siegel--a fiery young Yoko Ono impersonator--the disc is precocious but never precious, combining a smart, Juno-esque appreciation of old-school punk that steers clear of mere revivalism." – SPIN

I saw this bit of code on an old forum post:
SSLRequire %{HTTP_HOST} =~ m"\.secure\.powweb\.com"
And I was just wondering what the
=~ and
m" ... " meant. I've been searching online and in the Apache documentation for any mention of the equal-sign tilde operator, but I've found no mention of it. I know that some directives can take a tilde to use a regular expression, but I've never seen the
m" ... " form used before.
What exactly is that
m" ... " for? Where else would you see this form?

There seems to be a few Skyrim players on here, so I thought I'd share and ask: what is your weirdest Skyrim moment to date?
Mine is a little disturbing. So I fast-travel back to Whiterun after a caving adventure to offload some of my goodies to Belethor and Arcadia for some quick cash. I'm standing in the middle of the main street (important to note I am in FIRST-person view here) and flicking through all my inventory items deciding what to sell etc, and while clicking my Apparel items on and off I didn't realise I'd actually unwittingly stripped my character down to just a loincloth.
So anyway, I jump out of my inventory to see that annoying little girl running past me, and just for the hell of it I hit the Talk option expecting the same old thing – she stops, says something annoying, and then runs off. But this time she challenges me to a game of hide and seek. So BAM "Play hide and seek with whatever-her-name-is is added to my Misc quests list. I'm thinking oh crap not another Misc quest, so I decided to play the game with her to get it over with then and there (please note I am still in FIRST-person view while doing this), so I play the game and it gets taken off my quest list and I'm happy. But...
Then I click over to THIRD-person view and realise, to my horror, that for 10 minutes I have been a grown man wearing nothing but a loincloth chasing a little girl around the streets of Whiterun.
Um....creepy anyone??
