Hue is especially famous with old tombs & pagodas. This Hue trip of mine is not so much of the tomb raider trip, but more of observing Vietnamese daily life.

Public Relations vs. Journalism
PR Industry Fills Vacuum Left by Shrinking Newsrooms - "You would go into these hearings and there would be more PR people representing these big players than there were reporters, sometimes by a factor of two or three" ..it's getting tougher to know when a storyline originates with a self-interested party producing its own story.

Scattered industry advice on this topic varies from moderate to extreme, and while web analytics paint a convincing picture of web readers, some wonder if long form journalism has EVER worked. Of course there seem to be other factors at play, like methods of presentation and quality of content.

Sep 10 2012, 11:31 ET | About: Petrobras - Petroleo Brasil... (PBR) | By: Carl Surran, SA News Editor
A move by Petrobras (PBR -1%) to seek a partner to invest in its U.S. offshore deepwater oil fields suggests PBR has figured out how to extract oil from the difficult site in the Gulf of Mexico. The news could be a positive for National Oilwell Varco (NOV -0.3%), which has been acquiring companies that make parts for FPSO vessels PBR has deployed off Brazil and West Africa.

Jerry Zgoda of the Star Tribune: Kevin Love is due in town on Friday, Nikola Pekovic is expected to arrive over the weekend. Rick Adelman will arrive next week and Shved, Barea and almost everyone else other than Rubio will be here as well. Saunders praised Shved's Eurobasket play for a Russian team that got knocked out early. "He played really good," he said. "What I liked about him is he kept his composure. He was their best player." He said the same about Barea, whose Puerto Rico team lost to Mexico in the FIBA Americas final. "He had a great tournament. If they had won it, he'd probably be the Player of the Tournament. He looks like he as lost a little weight, playing as much as he has. He just looked in great shape." Likewise, Saunders said rookie Shabazz Muhammad has lost weight since the Vegas Summer League in July and said it's the best shape he's seen him in all year. For what it's worth, he also said Muhammad and Gorgui Dieng have "made a lot of progress" since summer. They've been working out daily with new player development coach Bobby Jackson. Saunders didn't go to Slovenia for Eurobasket, but scout Zarko Durisic has been there and just got back a few days ago. Look for player liaison Calvin Booth to join assistant coach Jack Sikma in working with the big men during the preseason. There's still a chance the Wolves could add a player to their training camp roster. Discussions with agents continue.
Staff of the Chicago Sun-Times: It has been 508 days — give or take a few hours — since Derrick Rose last played in a regulation NBA game. But when asked by a reporter in Manila, Philippines, the other day if he would play for the U.S. team in the 2014 FIBA World Cup in Spain, the rehabbing and well-rested Bulls guard responded that he would like to. "If they select me on the team, it will be an honor," Rose was quoted by ABS-CBNNews.com. "I definitely will be on the team if [coach Mike Krzyzewski] wants me." The FIBA tournament begins in 345 days.
Buck Harvey of the San Antonio Express-News: Gregg Popovich is hoping for something else, and it's that the rebooting of NBA basketball will reboot his brain. No matter what he does, he can't get Game 6 out of his head. Even blows to the head haven't helped. When "Jesse" James Leija puts the Spurs through boxing workouts — and he did again Wednesday — he sometimes puts gloves on Popovich. Leija wears mitts and tells Popovich to hit them. When Popovich drops his hands, Leija slaps Popovich in the face. Popovich tries to hit Leija back and never comes close. "It drives me crazy," Popovich said, laughing. And when asked if something as aggressive as boxing is a way to release anxiety held over from the 2013 NBA Finals, Popovich doesn't pull punches. "Nothing is a release," he said. Game 7 is a fog to him. "Was there one?" he asked. Game 6 is another matter. Popovich doesn't second-guess himself. The same coach who often preaches that the game is simple doesn't regret benching his best defender and rebounder when the Spurs needed defense and rebounding. He needed to defend the 3-point line, and other Spurs are better at that than Tim Duncan. This also is how the Spurs played these end-of-game situations about 20 times last season. Still, because it was Duncan, and because Duncan had done so much to get in position to win another title, does Popovich ever wish he'd given Duncan a chance to defend the lead he had helped build?
Michael Lee of The Washington Post: The Washington Wizards spent an entire offseason upgrading and increasing their depth with perimeter talent but remained thin and relatively inexperienced in the front court, with the exception of starters Emeka Okafor and Nene. But with training camp set to start Sept. 28, the Wizards' most vulnerable area is now much weaker after the team announced Wednesday that Okafor and reserve forward Chris Singleton would both miss significant time because of injuries. Okafor will be out indefinitely after an MRI revealed a herniated disk in his neck, and the team announced that Singleton is expected to miss six to eight weeks after having surgery to repair a broken bone in his left foot. Singleton sustained his injury during a voluntary workout on Tuesday at Verizon Center. Okafor said he began experiencing discomfort in his neck while playing pickup basketball in New York but didn't believe it was anything more than "stiffness." … With Okafor down, the Wizards will likely have to move Nene to center and pair him with either Kevin Seraphin, Jan Vesely or veteran Al Harrington. Seraphin was the primary backup to both Okafor and Nene last season and declined playing for the French national team to train primarily in Washington this summer. … Singleton's injury also came at an inopportune time as he enters a critical season as it relates to his future with the organization. The 6-foot-8 Singleton was already in a difficult position; he was attempting to earn a spot in Coach Randy Wittman's regular rotation while convincing the Wizards to pick up his option worth about $2.5 million for the 2014-15 season.
Clay Fowler of the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin: Violet Palmer was out of her comfort zone Tuesday afternoon. Being showered with praise and surrounded by well-wishers is, well, the exact opposite of what she's used to. It won't be long before the NBA's only female referee returns to hulking players barking in her face, coaches questioning her every move and thousands of fans raining jeers upon her nightly, but for one day the Cal Poly Pomona graduate was one of 48 former NCAA Division II athletes across the country awarded a spot on its tribute team. "This is so strange," Palmer quipped. "I'm not used to all this good love. I'm waiting for somebody to boo me." While Palmer was a student at Cal Poly Pomona from 1982 to 1986, the cheering was abundant. She was a point guard on two national championship teams long before becoming the first female official to reach the highest competitive tier in a major U.S. professional sport. Despite the verbal abuse synonamous with the job on the court, Palmer has become a celebrated figure off of it. The 49-year-old is now a 15-year veteran with NBA Finals experience who also shoulders the responsibility of overseeing college officials for the Pac-12 and West Coast Conferences.
Michael Pointer of The Indianapolis Star: Indiana Pacers All-Star forward Paul George said today the team's fans don't need to worry about him going anywhere. Indianapolis is his professional home and he plans to be here for a long time. "(A long-term contract) is going to get done," George told The Indianapolis Star. "There will be a deal signed and sealed on the table before the season. We're (George and Pacers management) on the same page." George is entering the final year of his contract and the odds seemed long that he would leave Indiana even before Wednesday's comments. The Pacers would have the right to match any offer he received next summer and have indicated they would do just that. … "No," George said when asked if there was any chance he would leave the Pacers. "Honestly, I love it here. I want to be here. It's a great place. There are no distractions. I can stay focused. It's all about basketball here. I can stay focused and do my job."
Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News: Harrison Barnes and all of the Warriors players have something to prove this season: That they can not only repeat last season's trip to the second round of the postseason, but that they can expand on it. And Iguodala is naturally the guy who is supposed to trigger that improvement. The way to push it all forward is if Barnes and others go as hard as possible in these workouts, and if Iguodala pushes it, too. Of course, Iguodala is a different player from Barnes -- they're versatile in different ways. And there's a strong chance that they could find themselves on the floor together for long periods this season, with Barnes shifting over to the power-forward spot or with Iguodala playing one of the two guard positions. In fact, Iguodala said he is already focusing on facilitating the offense, figuring out where the Warriors' top scorers want the ball and when they want it. By the way, Iguodala, Thompson and Barnes all playing together -- with Bogut defending the paint -- would be the Warriors' most dangerous defensive unit, no question. They're going at each other now to sharpen themselves for the nights when they'll be up against Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Tony Parker and all the other top players. It's how an up-and-coming team keeps going up, keeps itself on edge, and storms into training camp at the highest speed possible.
Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News: In July, the Spurs signed a free-agent forward named Jeff Pendergraph to a two-year contract. No player by that name will ever appear in a Spurs uniform. Last month, Pendergraph walked into a courthouse in downtown Phoenix, his wife Raneem and newborn daughter Naomi in tow. He walked out with a new name — Jeff Ayres. Ayres is the family name of his biological father, James. It replaces the surname of a stepfather who hasn't been in the picture since the player formerly known as Jeff Pendergraph was in high school. For the 26-year-old veteran of three NBA seasons, the journey from Pendergraph to Ayres was in some ways as simple as filling out a thick stack of paperwork and filing it with an Arizona judge. It also was a complicated decision with a complex back story, one that tests the traditional definitions of blood and family. "I didn't know who my dad was until I was a senior in high school," Jeff Ayres said Wednesday, during a break from pickup games at the Spurs' practice gym. … Jeff and James Ayres have a relationship now. They are bonded by a last name, related both legally and biologically. The two won't be attending any father-son picnics anytime soon, but it's a start. They exchange text messages weekly. And last month, when the player still known as Pendergraph arrived at that Phoenix courthouse to rename himself, James Ayres drove from California to accompany him. So, what's in a name? A new Spurs forward named Jeff Ayres thinks he knows. "It's nothing personal," he said. "It's just family."
Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle: Chandler Parsons might be entrenched as the Rockets' small forward, fashion model and up-and-coming celebrity, but the position gets complicated behind him. Actually, even Parsons' role will be interesting with the addition of Dwight Howard placing even more emphasis on Parsons' catch-and-shoot 3-point touch. The greater questions will be determining who can best take on Carlos Delfino's vital and underrated role as a shooter behind Parsons and as a three that can slide over to be a floor-spacing four. Francisco Garcia is coming off a strong playoff series, but is not an option as a four and could be picking up playing time as a guard, anyway. Omri Casspi might be the best bet for the Delfino role, but will have to find at least the shooting touch he showed as a rookie. Ronnie Brewer is a strong defender, but also has to show he can knock down shots to grab one of the final roster spots. There is a sense that the Rockets are too high on rookie Robert Covington to let him go, even if he might not be ready yet in a win-now season. With five small forwards heading to camp, there will be a battle for playing time and the final roster spot. Yet, while all that plays out at the position, the most important key could be whether Parsons continues his development enough to go from star on the pages of "Seventeen" to "Sports Illustrated."
Mary Schmitt Boyer of The Plain Dealer: Tristan Thompson didn't set out to make NBA history this summer. "History in the making? No, no, no,'' the Cavaliers' personable third-year power forward said, laughing. It just worked out that way. When Thompson decided to switch his shooting hand from his left to his right, becoming what is believed to be the first player in NBA history to change his dominant hand in the middle of his career, he thought it was just another step in improving his game. … After working with former Cavs coach John Lucas, and then shooting coach Dave Love, Thompson has come to believe that perhaps he was right-handed all along. "I wouldn't say it's easy, but I think the transition is going more smoothly than one might assume, which probably means I was always right-handed and just never knew, probably because I lived in Canada,'' he said, which isn't quite as crazy as it sounds. "I started playing basketball at such a late age,'' said Thompson, who didn't take basketball seriously until he was 12 or 13. "In America, you start playing when you're 5 years old.'' He reasons that had he started playing five or six years earlier, he likely would have been encouraged to try shooting with his right hand sooner.
John Reid of The Times-Picayune: Though his contract is resolved, Brian Roberts is bracing for a more intense battle in training camp, which begins Oct. 1. He could be in a fight for playing time with Austin Rivers at backup point guard. Though Rivers played significant minutes at shooting guard last season, starter Eric Gordon and newly acquired Tyreke Evans could get the majority of playing time at the position. The Pelicans made Evans their top target in free agency because of his versatility. He can play point guard, shooting guard and small forward. "They have a lot of versatility at the guard position and they can go some different ways,'' Roberts said. "It depends on what (coach) Monty (Williams) wants. I'm just going to be ready for whatever he asks me to do.'' Roberts is hoping to evolve as a better overall player, especially defensively. Roberts has participated extensively in the Pelicans' volunteer workouts to prepare for training camp.
Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News: The Lakers haven't exactly upgraded their talent. But they've made a push to upgrade their uniforms. The Lakers released a video Wednesday on their Instagram account of Kobe Bryant wearing the team's black alternative uniform, something the team will showcase this season for an unspecified amount of select game. The black uniform, dubbed "Hollywood Nights" features a black jersey and the Lakers' traditional purple and gold as trimming. "This has been a few years in the process of introducing a black Lakers uniform," Lakers president Jeanie Buss said on the team's Web site. "In no way are we ever going to replace the purple and gold traditional uniform that has seen so many championships won. But I think the gold is going to pop out in a black uniform. Having the purple letters says it all. It's all Lakers." The Lakers will also wear white short-sleeve jerseys at select games during the 2013-14 season, including the team's Christmas Day game at Staples Center against the Miami Heat.

Is there any good documentation on dissecting WordPress? Any tips on where to begin? I would really like to understand everything beneath the hood. Any suggestions?
To me, the best way to learn something is to just jump in and start working while learning it at the same time. So... I guess I want to use WP like a normal user, while looking at the codes behind to see what is going on. Where can I find that kind of documentation?
(I know there's the dev page,
and I've signed up at the dev mailing list,
Just wondering if someone has similar experience doing the same things and can give me a few tips.)

The Penn State Nittany Lions have added games against the Georgia State Panthers and the Kent State Golden Flashes to their future football schedules, the school announced today.
Penn State will host Georgia State at Beaver Stadium in University Park on Sept. 16, 2017. The game will be the first ever meeting between the two schools.
GSU will receive a $1.2 million guarantee for the game, according to Doug Roberson of AJC.com.
Penn State has also added a game against Kent State to their 2018 football schedule. The two schools, which also play in 2016, will meet on Sept. 15, 2018. The Nittany Lions officially lead the series against the Golden Flashes 2-0. PSU victories in 2003 and 2010 were vacated.
The addition of Georgia State in 2017 completes Penn State's schedule for that season. The Nittany Lions need one more non-conference game to complete their schedules in 2015 and 2018.
Penn State also announced today that their 2017 home game vs. Pittsburgh has been moved up one week to Sept. 9. The game had been set for Sept. 16, but Pitt scheduled a home game against Oklahoma State for that date back in November.
Football Schedules
While I'm not too flattered in adding Georgia State, there's a potential silver lining to this cloud. They could actually prepare a home/home series with another PC team for 2015 and 2018. Perhaps they could look into NC State? There's still the matter of finishing the series with Virginia, but I'm not sure if they'd want to break the trend of hosting the team on an odd year.
Penn State is booked for away games through 2024. Only thing that might be added against a PC team is a neutral site game, unless someone is willing to come to Beaver Stadium without a return game.
Penn St needs a P5 opponent for 2015.
Available: Alabama, Stanford, Arizona, Mizzou, KY, Miss St, Syr, NC, NC St,
Alabama plays Wisconsin in 2015 neutral game already and will not play home-and-homes. PSU and Syracuse already scheduled to a home-and-home in 2020-21. Both Stanford and NC already have two P5 OOC opponents on 2015 schedules.
So that leaves: Arizona, NC St, Mizzou, KY, and Miss St.
How about Mizzou at Penn St in 2015 and Penn St at Mizzou in 2019?
" and will not play home-and-homes"
Bama just got off playing a home in home series with Penn St.
Even though I am a Penn St. season ticket holder, I think their non-conference schedule through 2019 is deplorable and I am very disappointed that James Franklin has said on the record that he is not interested in playing any big name opponents. He just wants to play home games and that's all. It's not likely Penn St. is going to get a Power 5 Conference school to play a one-off game at Beaver Stadium.
If Franklin thinks he is going to sell out Beaver Stadium when Kent St. and Georgia St. come to town then he is fooling himself. Penn St. fans don't show up for those crap opponents in September, anymore.
Another clown that never put on a jockey strap
In 2008 we paid $1.1 million for Oregon State to come to Beaver Stadium for a one off game. Maybe we could entice a P5 team for the right price. Like a Mizzou, Miss St,KY or Arizona. Or a game with UVA which is also a P5 opponet. Also why not do what MSU did a few years ago and bring in Boise Sate for a one off game or b/c of the bowl ban in 2015 a neutral site game with MIA(FL) who wants to add Penn State to future schedules.
PSU fans, don't hold your breath waiting for a quality OOC opponent. Take a look at Vanderbilt's most recent schedules to see what you can expect (the 2014 schedule put together while James Franklin was still there: Temple, UMass, Old Dominion and Charleston Southern). Under Franklin, the toughest game Vanderbilt would play regularly was Wake Forest but even that series has been cancelled. An ongoing series against Northwestern negotiated by his predecessor was cut short after Vandy lost two in a row as was a game against Ohio State. Franklin won't willingly play in a game he's not sure he will win. But you do have to give him some credit… he was able to parlay success against a down SEC West and poor OOC opponents into a better job and bigger payday. Look for him to continue his success with more weak scheduling.
PSU has plenty of Major 5 conf opponents so the notion they "hold their breath for quality OOC" is ludicrous. Maybe you should have taken the 1 second to click on PSU future schedule since you're already on this site.
Btw, Vandy has always played cr@P OOC schedule, that's not b/c of Franklin that's what Vandy alway has done b/c they are usually cellar team or near cellar team in the SEC b/c they actually have academic standards.
I'm calling my shot:
Penn St. at BYU in 2015 and BYU at Penn St. in 2018.
Hearing multiple rumblings this as well. Looks like it will come with a Thursday night Neutral game on August 31st, 2017 @ Metlife
BYU's schedule is full for 2015. Not going to happen. Someone will have to come off the schedule first.

Table 1. Syndromes and Conditions Associated With Wilms Tumor continued...
Several candidate genes at the WT2 locus comprise the two independent imprinted domains IGF2/H19 and KIP2/LIT1.[56] Loss of heterozygosity, which exclusively affects the maternal chromosome, has the effect of upregulating paternally active genes and silencing maternally active ones. A loss or switch of the imprint for genes (change in methylation status) in this region has also been frequently observed and results in the same functional aberrations. A study of 35 sporadic primary Wilms tumors suggests that more than 80% have somatic loss of heterozygosity or loss of imprinting at 11p15.5.[57] The mechanism resulting in loss of imprinting can be either genetic mutation or epigenetic change of methylation.[49,56] Loss of imprinting or gene methylation is rarely found at other loci, supporting the specificity of loss of imprinting at 11p15.5.[58] Interestingly, Wilms tumors in Asian children are not associated with either nephrogenic rests or IGF2 loss of imprinting.[59]
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome results from loss of imprinting or heterozygosity of WT2 germline mutations. Observations suggest genetic heterogeneity in the etiology of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, with differing levels of association with risk of tumor formation.[60] Approximately one-fifth of patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome who develop Wilms tumor present with bilateral disease, and metachronous bilateral disease is also observed.[15,16,17] The prevalence of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome is about 1% among children with Wilms tumor reported to the National Wilms Tumor Study (NWTS).[1,17]
A relationship between epigenotype and phenotype has been shown in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, with a different rate of cancer in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome according to the type of alteration of the 11p15 region.[61] The overall tumor risk in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome was estimated between 5% and 10%, with a risk between 1% (loss of imprinting at IC2) and 30% (gain of methylation at IC1 and paternal 11p15 isodisomy). Patients with IC1 gain of methylation only developed Wilms tumor, whereas other tumors such as neuroblastoma or hepatoblastoma could occur in patients with paternal 11p15 isodisomy.[62]
Wilms tumor gene on the X chromosome(WTX)
A third gene, WTX, has been identified on the X chromosome and plays a role in normal kidney development. This gene is inactivated in approximately one-third of Wilms tumors, but germline mutations have not been observed in patients with Wilms tumor.[63]WTX mutations are equally distributed between males and females. WTX inactivation is a frequent, but late, event in tumorigenesis and has no apparent effect on clinical presentation or prognosis.[64]

BP Seeks Tax Cut on Cleanup Costs
BP PLC calculated the cost of cleaning up the Gulf oil spill would cut its tax bill by $10 billion, a move experts said was legal but could still prompt questions from Congress.
In releasing second-quarter results Tuesday, the London-based oil giant said it was taking a pretax charge of $32 billion to cover damages, business claims and cleanup costs over the next several years.
The Gulf Oil Spill
That total will be offset against its U.S. tax bill, resulting in a $10 billion reduction in taxes, the company said. The tax reduction will cut the company's anticipated net spill-related losses to $22 billion, the company said.
BP paid $10.4 billion in taxes world-wide last year, according to its 2009 annual report.
Tax experts said that BP's filing reflected standard accounting practices, even if the sums involved were unusually large.
"There is nothing unusual about this, as damages of this sort are always deductible," said J. Walker Johnson, a tax lawyer at Washington law firm Steptoe & Johnson.
"BP would just have to do it in such a way that any deduction being taken matched actual losses being incurred," he said.
Follow key developments since the initial explosion.
But the idea of BP getting a tax break could stir complaints from Capitol Hill.
One Democratic aide said the issue was likely to be taken up by Democratic tax writers within the House Ways and Means Committee. But others said it was unclear whether Congress could intervene in what is otherwise a normal tax write-off.
Lawmakers have focused in particular on whether BP planned to seek a tax deduction for the $20 billion escrow fund it agreed to establish to pay spill claims. Under pressure from the White House, BP agreed to establish the fund last month to pay claims to individuals, businesses and states hurt by the spill.In its filing Tuesday, BP listed the fund among the $32 billion it expects to pay out in assorted damages. The company will pay into the fund over the next three years.
BP said in its filing that spill-related payouts could easily exceed $32 billion.
The company said it was including in its anticipated losses the penalties it expected to pay under the federal Clean Water Act. For normal spills, those penalties can range up to $1,100 a barrel of oil spilled.
BP said that in calculating its losses under the act, it assumed that the government wouldn't find that the spill was the result of "gross negligence." A finding of gross negligence could raise the penalty to $4,300 a barrel.
U.S. authorities have estimated that the spill leaked as much as 65,000 barrels a day into the Gulf of Mexico over nearly three months.

All of Latvia's schools have now been issued with teaching materials specifically aimed at migrant teenagers, introducing them to the language and cultural traditions of their host country. The resources are designed to support integration into Latvian society.
|Project dates
|07/03/2011 - 30/06/2013
|Total budget
|€56 079
|EU contribution
|Name of the entity managing the project
|Latvian Language Agency
All of Latvia's schools are now in possession of 'Atvērsim vārtus!' ('Open the gate!'). These modern teaching materials are specifically aimed at migrant children aged between 13 and 18 years, who arrive in Latvia without knowledge of the Latvian language. The materials form the basis of a 60-hour course that corresponds to the introductory language level A1.
When designing the resources, the Latvian Language Agency was aiming to: introduce the students to Latvian lexicon and phrases that are needed in everyday situations; provide basic grammar necessary to develop conversational skills; present practical language applications, such as addressing an envelope; and highlight cultural traditions to aid integration into Latvian society.
Teachers may use the resources to develop their own programmes and materials, or simply use them as they are. They are designed to be accessible to all migrant children aged 13 to 18 years old, and the Latvian Language Agency hopes that they will encourage and motivate the teenagers to learn Latvian, develop a personal interest in Latvia, and in doing so become more integrated into Latvian society.

text: 407 FXUS63 KARX 210444 AFDARX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service La Crosse WI 1144 PM CDT WED JUL 20 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 954 PM CDT Wed Jul 20 2016 Well...it wouldn`t be a summer ridge pattern without some threat for convective issues. We have lots of those late this evening, with a notable complex continuing to develop across central North Dakota, featuring quite a few supercells beneath a corridor of stronger effective shear but those increasingly trying to organize into more of a linear structure. The big question is how that stuff behaves the rest of the night and into Thursday morning. For one thing, we will have some increasing capping working north and eastward across the area, with the strongest deep layer moisture transport/convergence progged to lie north of the I-94 corridor late tonight, coincident with a weakish low level jet feature. Current activity is being aided by a shortwave progressing through western North Dakota, with that feature looking to ride the ridge top and end up near western Lake Superior after sunrise. As such, and per Corfidi vector analysis, would think the northern component of the convection will work in that same direction, generally crossing northern Minnesota and Wisconsin. However, what about the southern/outflow component? Should we be able to organize a better cold pool, it is possible that a southward drift will initiate on the edge of strongest warmth/capping aloft, intercepting the better moisture advection to perhaps increase convective coverage south toward I-94 or maybe even a little farther south. Also, storm motion vectors get rather small from 11Z-16Z, suggestive that outflow could dominate. All told, this remains a very low confidence scenario overnight, but it is not at all impossible that convection could end up working even a bit more southward, in line with recent HRRR and Hop-WRF runs, which suggest a linear feature simply marching through most of the CWA into Thursday morning. Not ready to bite on that just yet, but it bears watching, as any such outcome could severely disrupt our heating for at least a time tomorrow. && .SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Thursday Night) Issued at 236 PM CDT Wed Jul 20 2016 Concern through the period continues to be increasing heat and some storm chances. GOES Water Vapor satellite imagery/RAP 500mb analysis showing an expansive ridge of high pressure over the central conus with monsoonal plume of moisture pushing into the region. Embedded/ nondescript shortwave troughs within this flow sparking occasional rounds of convection over the region. Once such area of shra/ts was pushing east out of the area into southeast MN/northern IL. Some showers also burbling along the MN/IA border. This seems to be firing ahead of a weaker mid-level trough moving across eastern SD/NE. Models continue to show increasing 850mb moisture transport through tonight ahead of low pressure over the Northern Plains. This, and the possibility of another nondescript mid-level wave in the aforementioned monsoonal tap, will produce a chance of showers and storms mainly east of the Mississippi River or on the eastern periphery of strengthening 850-700mb cap. Otherwise, looks like a fairly uncomfortable night ahead as lows only dip into the lower/middle 70s with dew points in the 70s as well. The heat is on for Thursday as 925mb temperatures surge to around 30C. Some question as to how much ongoing elevated convection will be going on or amount of convective debris cloud will be overhead. Current thinking is that surface temperatures will respond to the warm air advection...topping off in the 90s. This pushes heat indices into the 100-115 range during the afternoon. As such...Excessive Heat Warning goes into effect at Noon Thursday...dropping off at 10 pm for Clark/Taylor counties but continuing through Friday for the rest of the area as heat/humidity continues. Please see our latest Excessive Heat Warning products for latest details. Otherwise, looks like a frontal boundary drops through Thursday night. However, NAM Bufkit sounding shows a stout cap in place. Will carry a 20-30 pop for now based on this. Overnight lows Thursday night only falling into the lower/middle 70s again. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 236 PM CDT Wed Jul 20 2016 As mentioned above...Excessive Heat Warning continues through Friday for most of the area with the exception of Clark/Taylor counties in north central Wisconsin where some cooling takes place. Will have to watch for a continued chance of thunderstorms mainly south of I-90 in the vicinity of the surface frontal boundary. Thunderstorm chances return to the area late Friday night, then becoming likely Saturday into Saturday night as a warm front pushes into the area ahead of low pressure approaching from the Northern Plains. Will have to watch for severe threat given ample CAPE and decent 0-3km Bulk Shear. There will be a slight chance of storms Sunday, but looks like most of this should be pushed east with cold front. High pressure builds in Monday for a brief dry period, but shower/thunder chances move in again Tuesday night into Wednesday as both the ECMWF/GFS bring a trough through the region. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 1144 PM CDT Wed Jul 20 2016 Still watching a complex of showers and storms working east out of North Dakota early this morning. Latest thinking is that these storms will impact areas north and east of the KRST/KLSE terminals late tonight through part of the morning hours Thursday, but there is still a very low risk that storms could briefly impact especially KLSE. Otherwise, outside of some pesky stratus with a brief period of IFR ceilings around KRST, not much looks to go through the day with warm and humid conditions before an approaching cold front this evening returns small chances for additional convection. For the moment, with such low confidence, will only mention a vicinity shower, but of course watch trends closely. && .ARX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... WI...Excessive Heat Warning from noon Thursday to 7 PM CDT Friday for WIZ032>034-041>044-053>055-061. Excessive Heat Warning from noon to 10 PM CDT Thursday for WIZ017-029.

Not sure if we'd put this Carter IV leftover up against Em's orginal.
LISTEN: Lil Wayne – "Dear Anne (Stan Pt 2)" (Prod. by Swizz Beatz)
No thanks… try again wheezy
I wouldnt doubt that in his new state of sobriety Em will probably say that this is dope. I kind of miss the Em who actually had an opinion on shit now his response to everything is that it's dope.
@Normmont co-sign that!!! Just like him taking back the jab at Lady Gaga, this isn't the Slim Shady days anymore that's for sure! You might say he matured but I liked those days better than now…
@Dayz Word! I'm all about moving forward as an artist and a person but that doesnt mean everything and everybody should get a pass.
I think em is at the stage where he can't really tell what's wack anymore

Customise your tour experience according to your requirements.
For many years the Westcoast Ostrich Show Ranch has been offering a unique experience to visitors of the Western Cape. Situated only twenty minutes from Cape Town's Waterfront, the Kanigowski family have built up a very popular tourist destination encompassing informative tours with a high quality, great value leather and curio shops and an ostrich meat orientated restaurant. The business is family owned and run, with Gavin and his son, Pawel, on hand to greet visitors. The facilities we offer increase each year, allowing us to welcome more and more tourists, while still offering a friendly professional atmosphere. The farm nestles on the sea facing slopes of the Durbanville hills, which offer magnificent views of Table Mountain and the Hottentots Holland Mountains, an area steeped in local history.
History reveals that ostrich chicks were traded by the original Khoi inhabitants with the Dutch Settlers in 1652 and exported from Cape Town to Batavia (now Indonesia) in 1656. There were also exports to India and the Emperor of Japan in 1658.
The first documented ostrich farm was established in the centre of Cape Town in 1679. The Westcoast Ostrich Ranch has pioneered the revival of ostrich farming in the shadow of Table Mountain (Hoerikwagga).

I'm not a fan of JSF. Spring MVC makes a lot of sense to me and I've used it in the past.
Can you talk me out of it or provide tips for integrating it nicely into JEE6 and share and gotchas with CDI.
I don't mind having an application context just for the MVC stuff but if I use @Inject or @EJB in my MVC controllers, what's going to go wrongly?
Seam3 seems interesting though is it ready for production?

Good product at a great price
By Annie
from Tampa Bay
I use a combination of these pencils in my intro to drawing classes. They are always well centered when sharpened (something I can't count on from cheap, bulk-packaged pencils from major art/hobby chains).
By Jeannie
from Nova Scotia Canada
Hi I am new to the drawing world and just trying to find my place . I have used 2 other name pencils and found I had a lot of dragging and scratching with these other pencils. The pencils I received from this company are very good. I have found them to have a few dark specks but none too many to lift with my kneaded eraser. The price was a bit high because I live in Canada so therefore had to pay duty but I will purchase them again because they are worth it. Thank You A satisfied customer
BEST Pencils ever, Quality is indescriptible

You cant compare its quality, is way beyond any expectation. Tone shading is perfect for portraits. I just love it!
Excellent sketch pencils
By Yogini
from Minneapolis, MN
Very smooth texture which allows layers. The letter denoting the hardness of the pencil being on all four sides of the pencil is a plus for me. I don't have to turn to one side to know which pencil I'm using. Love the quality.

"Coal turtle", Carbonemys cofrinii
Reconstruction of Carbonemys preying upon a small crocodylomorph.
Illustration by Liz Bradford.
Picture a turtle the size of a Smart car, with a shell large enough to double as a kiddie pool. Paleontologists from North Carolina State University have found just such a specimen – the fossilized remains of a 60-million-year-old South American giant that lived in what is now Colombia.
The turtle in question is Carbonemys cofrinii, which means "coal turtle," and is part of a group of side-necked turtles known as pelomedusoides. The fossil was named Carbonemys because it was discovered in 2005 in a coal mine that was part of northern Colombia's Cerrejon formation. The specimen's skull measures 24 centimeters, roughly the size of a regulation NFL football. The shell which was recovered nearby - and is believed to belong to the same species - measures 172 centimeters, or about 5 feet 7 inches, long. That's the same height as Edwin Cadena, the NC State doctoral student who discovered the fossil.

Whoops: S&P Says Scary Message on France Sent in Error
One of the things that briefly shook the rally a little while ago was a worry that France was at risk of a downgrade.
This was a credible threat, generally speaking, because France has been at risk of a downgrade for months now.
But there was also a real catalyst for the fear catching hold today: S&P accidentally released some kind of message that may have suggested France's rating was about to change.
We'll have full details soon, but here are the headlines from Dow Jones Newswires:
- S&P Cites Technical Error For Automatic Message Suggesting Change In France's Rtg
- S&P: France's Credit Ratings Remain Unchanged
- S&P Investigating Cause Of The Error
Good times.
Stocks are back up to where they were in early trading, with the Dow up about 120 points.
Interestingly, French bond spreads against German bunds are still wider by about 20 basis points, so the bond market is not yet sounding the all-clear.
Update: Here's the statement from S&P:
As a result of a technical error, a message was automatically disseminated today to some subscribers of S&P's Global Credit Portal suggesting that France's credit rating had been changed.
This is not the case: the ratings on Republic of France remain 'AAA/A-1+' with a stable outlook, and this incident is not related to any ratings surveillance activity. We are investigating the cause of the error.

I am developing an Android application. I implemented a View Pager with Tabs, as described in this link, with a FragmentStatePagerAdapter, and adding the tabs to the ActionBar on the OnCreate method of the Activity.
On my onCreateView event of my frament, I am inflating a layout that contains an EditText View, so each generated Tab has its own EditText for the user to enter data.
The thing is, I currently need to locally store the content of each textbox once its been fully filled with the input the user is writing in each EditText control. For example, I can know that the user is finished entering data, when they change the tab, or unfocus the control.
SCENARIO 1: I tried attaching a TextWatcher to the EditText control in my onCreateView event of the fragment, but it didn't work for me because I don't need it to be called every time a letter is inserted in my control, so I discarded that option
SCENARIO 2: I tried attaching a OnEditorActionListener to the EditText control in my onCreateView event of the fragment, but it's never called (like this link explains)
SCENARIO 3: I was thinking of handling the onTabUnselected event of the TabListener, but I don't know how to access the PREVIOUS EditText control value. Besides, that will only work when the user selects the tab by pressing its header, but not on the swipe event. In that case I am attanching a SimpleOnPageChangeListener to the ViewPager, but again, in that context, I can't know which was the previous Tab, nor can I access its EditText control.
What can I do? Thank you very much!

Dozens Dead As Plane Crashes Into Residential Buildings in Taiwan
The passenger jet was attempting an emergency landing.
At least 47 people are dead after a TransAsia Airways plane crashed during an attempted emergency landing in Taiwan's Penghu Islands today. Another 11 people were injured, according to the country's transportation minister. The 72-seat plane was flying from Kaohsiung, the country's second largest city, to Penghu, with 54 passengers and four crew members onboard.

Reports from Chinese media say the plane attempted to make an emergency landing in the city Magong due to bad weather caused by Typhoon Matmo. According to The China Post the plane lost contact with air traffic control as it attempted to land and crashed into two residential buildings in a village just north of the airport.

imo... death should be the punishment for comparing eyes wide shut to full metal jacket... i still don't get why people don't think eyes wide shut is as good as his best.
- Login to post comments
After I had first seen it, I was disappointed. But I promise you to re-watch it (in the next weeks, or months). Yet, I'm sure that it won't top The Shining.
- Login to post comments
Well, go on and shoot me 'cause I think "Eyes" is a damn sight better than "Full Metal Jacket". That's right, better.
- Login to post comments
I think eyes wide shut is better than full metal jacket too... but it's not even close.
btw, although it's been 6 or 7 years since i've seen the shining, i do think dr. strangelove is kubricks best, followed closely by eyes wide shut and paths of glory.
- Login to post comments
Wait... so you got it backwards and what you meant was that you think people who bring "FMJ" into any discussion of Kubrick's best should be killed? Or did I miss something?
- Login to post comments
i don't even know what i saying... but what i meant was that the two movies should not be uttered in the same breath because FMJ is not worthy of the praise Eyes wide shut should get.
see... that's what happens when i try to be witty or humorous... I F it up.

- Login to post comments
Thanks, chum for mentioning Dr. Strangelove, which I have totally forgotten!
- Login to post comments
I think Dr Strangelove is the best Kubrick film i have seen, with Lolota and The Shining tying for the worst, and the first half of Full Metal Jacket is amazing, its just than the second half is so average.
- Login to post comments
I'll definetly rewatch Dr.Strangelove, 2001 and Eyes Wide Shut.
I cannot understand why you think about The Shining as one of his worst. It is amazing.
But I absolutely agree with you on Full Metal Jacket.
- Login to post comments
yeah... i would suggest a rewatch... Strangelove and eyes wide shut in the "good" range is completely unacceptable... may have to add torture to that death sentence.
- Login to post comments
just saw the first half of lolita... and so far i was pleasantly surprise... it seems as good as some of his best... i don't see why it's looked down upon as a lesser film

I've noticed that they have it in the library, so I think I'll take it as soon as possible.

Hmmm...yes, so am I. I really try to watch Barry Lyndon, The Killing, Paths of Glory and Killer's Kiss within this week!
Lolita and those to rewatch (Eyes Wide Shut, 2001, Dr. Strangelove) for next week...
- Login to post comments
Here's the order I'd pick them. A Clockwork Orange, 2001:A Space Odyssey, Spartacus, Paths Of Glory, The Shining, Dr. Strangelove, Full Metal Jacket.
A Clockwork Orange stands out as being my favorite while 2001 through The Shining were a little harder to separate and place in order.
Kirk Douglas has said that Kubrick had wanted to make Paths Of Glory a more commercial movie but that he (Douglas) fought to get the movie we ended up with.
The Shining was remade for TV a few years back. Despite what Stephen King says, I strongly favor the Kubrick version.
- Login to post comments
After having read King's novel, I can, to some degree, understand why he doesn't like Kubrick's version. But I think that the film is an interesting additional interpretation to the novel.

Description: This comprehensive illustrated history begins with the origins of the alphabet itself and carries the reader through the first handwritten books, the invention of printing in the Renaissance, the explosion of graphic styles (and printed media) in the 19th and 20th centuries, and the impact of digital technology on design today.Like E.H. Gombrich's magnificent Story of Art, The Story of Graphic Design is a compelling narrative that explores the evolution of styles under the pressure of social, cultural, and technological change, accompanied by a comprehensive selection of illustrations of key works in typography and design since the invention of writing. It covers a remarkable number of topics, from the art of the medieval manuscript to the birth of advertising to the workings of modern mass media. Unlike all other historians of design, Patrick Cramsie is able to bring a designer's eye to the analysis of visual communication.The Story of Graphic Design is an indispensible book for designers, historians, and students, and will find a wide readership among people who are interested in the visual arts or concerned about the future of the printed word.
This hardcover book measures 10 by 8 inches. Published June 1, 2010.

Suspect hitting Fla. deputy with car shows danger of undercover work
By Jerome Burdi
The Sun-Sentinel
GREENACRES, Fla. — An ex-convict, already arrested 15 times, is headed back to jail for allegedly striking a deputy with his car after a drug sting.
Deputies stormed Thomas Burgess' car after he sold $200 worth of crack cocaine to an undercover agent Sept. 19 in the parking lot of Paul's Motel, on Lake Worth Road, the Sheriff's Office said.

In Windows 7, you can set a property of a shortcut to "Run as Administrator", so that the application is invoked with Administrator privileges or the user is asked for an admin account.
I know I can request/force Administrator privileges with a manifest file for my application, but I need to set the privileges for applications that are not mine. As Installer Software I use SetUp Factory 8. It will create a shortcut but doesn't set "Run as Administrator".
So far I set the option with every customer manually after install but that is a lot of work.
How can I set "Run as Administrator" for application shortcuts via a program/script (like editing the shortcut) or in any other way.

Sarah Michelle Gellar
Sarah Michelle Gellar in Paige Verdugo Skinny Jeans
Sarah Michelle Gellar was photographed while out running a few errands with her son. Sarah wore a pair of Paige Verdugo skinny jeans with a black blouse and black espadrille flats.
When it comes to denim, Sarah's style tends to be pretty casual and laid back and we seem to see her most frequently in skinny jeans or a distressed pair of boyfriend jeans. I'd love to see her mix it up and try a pair of flares or even overalls. You can buy Paige online from Shopbop.com.
Sarah Michelle Gellar in Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans
Sarah Michelle Gellar was pictured and followed by the paps as she did some shopping in Beverly Hills, California just a couple of days ago.
Sarah wore a pair of her old Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans, matching them with a black blazer, a skull scarf and some Rag & Bone Booties. I love seeing older jeans out and about, it's always nice to see which jeans celebs favour and truly love when they pull them out of their closet. Buy Current/Elliott online at Shopbop.com.

Sarah Michelle Gellar in an Oversize Denim Jacket
Sarah Michelle Gellar was snapped while out chatting with a friend in Los Angeles. It looks like Sarah Michelle is the latest celebrity to wear a denim jacket over her workout clothes.
This seems to be a bit of a trend among celebrities, to wear a denim jacket with their workout clothes and Sarah Michelle wore an oversize style with hers. I could see her wearing this in the summer over a feminine dress to make it a bit tougher.
Sarah Michelle Gellar in a Splendid Chambray Jumpsuit
Sarah Michelle Gellar was all smiles as she posed for photos at the Splendid Holiday Book Drive Kick-Off event in Santa Monica, California. The actress supported the brand and chose their Chambray Jumpsuit to pair with some peep-toe booties.
The denim jumpsuit is definitely having a moment right now. We seem to be getting more sightings frequently as the days go by and I am definitely for it. I have always preferred the style over overalls and I'm happy to see those taking a quick backseat with an undoubted return when festival season kicks in. How many of you are ready to switch over to the denim jumpsuit? Click here to purchase this jumpsuit from Splendid for $288.
