Peace Arch Entertainment // 2007 // 85 Minutes // Rated R
Reviewed by Appellate Judge Tom Becker (Retired) // August 7th, 2009
Another cheap-'n'-cheesy low-ball, gross-out comedy for your viewing pleasure, Skid Marks tells the tale of two ambulance companies competing to see which can transport the most patients: the Bayside Ambulatory Life Services vs. Downtown Intensive Care. The acronyms will clue you in to about 80 percent of the jokes and the general tone of what you can expect.
Our heroes are on the Bayside crew. There's Rich, the regular guy (Tyler Poelle, Scrubs), a fat guy, a sexy but insane girl named "Lai Mei" (more jokes!), and a "little person" called "One Foot" (but not because of his height -- more jokes!). Representing Downtown are two dorky guys, Neil and Bob. Our EMTs -- not paramedics, a job viewed in Holy Grail-like terms -- drug each other with tranquilizers and an erection-causing elixir, toss poop-filled things at each other, spy on each other, make up dirty stories about each other, and engage in all sorts of frat-boyish grossities. Whenever possible, they minister to comely and topless young women. Oh, and Rich likes a woman who doesn't like him back until the end.
That's pretty much it. Skid Marks is an unremarkable, super-low budget indie comedy that's frequently funny but more frequently stupid. If there's a joke you thought was funny when you were in junior high -- including the double entendre title -- odds are you'll find it lurking here. Well, not really "lurking." More accurately, you'll find it waving its metaphorical arms and hyperbolically screaming its inanities. Skid Marks wears its low brow proudly. Nothing here rises even close to the level of "serious" -- a minor crisis involving Rich's love interest comes up every now and again but is easily dealt with -- and everyone seems to be having a good time. It's all like an extended student improv, simple and affable. I would have had a better time, if characters weren't tossing colostomy bags and making milkshakes out of semen, but we all have our limits.
The disc from Peace Arch is a decent affair. The image is reasonably good given the $1.98-style budget, and the producers don't try to obviously fake things to make it all look higher level than it is. The back of the case alleges that the audio is 5.1 surround, but what we actually get seems to be a standard stereo track, which is fine. There are Spanish subtitles, but no English.
In keeping with the "What the hey?" style of the movie, we get a bunch of "What the hey?"-style extras. A "making of" is just a series of behind-the-scenes shots thrown together; there are no interviews or insights here, which is fine, since Skid Marks is not an especially insightful film. Dumb EMTers Neil and Bob star in a few jokey faux PSAs. We get a few outtakes and deleted scenes, and there are instructions on how to download a digital copy to your iPod or other portable device, meaning you never have to leave home without Skid Marks.
Skid Marks is another cheesarific affair that harkens back to the glory days of Gilbert Gottfried, Rhonda Shear, and USA Up All Night. If "funny," "goofy," "dumb," and "gross" are magic words when picking out a DVD, then you'll want to at least give this one a rental.
Gross, but not guilty.

My work explores steamship travel between London and Cape Town as a window into the complex and networked mechanisms of British imperial power in South Africa. It weaves together stories of large, government- and corporate-driven initiatives with biographical accounts of individual travelers and migrants in order to better understand the relationship between power, wealth, and individual agency in the project of colonizing South Africa. I ask how individuals are complicit in larger imperial projects not of their own design.
Previously I have researched the role of early motion pictures in representing the South African War to a British audience, and I have explored the role of steamship travel between Britain and South Africa in shaping networks of empire and migration between 1870-1910. I am especially interested in steamships as sites of nineteenth-century social networking.

The NFL Teams That Are Ready for Prime Time
Since 2006, Scheduled Night Games Have Been an Uncanny Predictor of Success
The release of the NFL's 2014 schedule has fans forecasting their team's fate game by game. But there could be a simpler way: Just count the number of prime-time games.
Since Thursday night football began in 2006, scheduled prime-time appearances have been an uncanny predictor of success. Teams scheduled by the league to play the most night games, on average, have gone on to have better seasons than teams left off prime time. That's bad news this year for the Bills, Browns, Lions, Jaguars, Vikings, Raiders and Buccaneers, slated for one appearance each. Since 2006, the 51 teams with only one prime-time game have combined for a 357-457 record (.439). By comparison, the 47 teams since 2006 with five scheduled prime-time appearances ended up 434-316 (.578). That's good news this year for the nine teams scheduled to play five prime-time games: the Bears, Cowboys, Broncos, Packers, Colts, Patriots, Saints, Giants and Steelers.
The Super Bowl champion Seahawks were awarded four games. Since 2010, that is the minimum for any team reaching the big game.
It also appears the schedule maker is bearish on three of last season's playoff teams—the Chiefs, Bengals and Panthers—each awarded only three night games (the same as the 3-13 Redskins).
These records include only originally scheduled games, not the more compelling ones that the league and networks flex to prime time.
The schedule maker has even successfully predicted when the Cowboys are actually going to be good. Dallas was awarded six prime-time games in 2007, and tied a franchise record with 13 wins.

UPPER MERION Ś Police are asking for the publicĺs help in finding a vehicle they believe to be connected with a hit-and-run that occurred Wednesday, Sept. 18.
Police heard a report of a minor accident which occurred in the area of Mall Boulevard at 9:37 p.m. The victimĺs vehicle stopped at a light and was rear-ended by another vehicle. The victim stopped and got out of his car to talk with the other driver and inspect the damage on his vehicle.
ôAt that point the driver of the second vehicle pulled out at a high rate of speed and the victim became entangled in the pickup truck,ö Upper Merion Chief of Police Thomas Nolan said.
According to police, the victim was dragged approximately 200 feet and was then run over by the rear tire of the truck after he broke free. The suspected vehicle continued to drive northbound on Route 202.
One vehicle stopped after the accident and spoke with police.
ôWe initially talked to the victim at the scene. He is currently at Paoli Hospital in the ICU Unit. We do have video footage from a video camera at 202 and Allendale Road.ö
The vehicle was described to police as a newer model Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck or a similar vehicle. The vehicle is either white or light sliver. Police also believe there would be minor damage to the front of the vehicle due to the initial accident.
ôIf itĺs not the suspectĺs vehicle, itĺs someone who was in the area at the time and someone weĺd like to speak to,ö Nolan said.
Police hope to speak with the victim once he begins to recover from his injuries.
A night after the accident, a viral Facebook post from the victimĺs daughter asked the public for help in finding the suspect which caught the attention of many across Montgomery County.
The post begins with ôLast night my dad was involved in a serious accident on Route 202 in King of Prussia, Pa. (in front of Sullivanĺs steakhouse) around 9 p.m.ö
The post goes on to describe her fatherĺs injuries: ôMy dad is suffering from 4-5 fractured ribs, a collapsed lung, fractured pelvis and a hole in his kidney. He also has road rash all over his body and has needed three blood transfusions.ö
Police are continuing to look for area stores that may have security footage of the incident and other drivers who may have been in the area at the time.
ôWe are actively searching local businesses to see if there is any other footage and we do believe we will come up with other footage that will be able to help us with the investigation,ö Nolan said.
Anyone with information on the accident is asked to call Upper Merion police at 610-265-3232.

Osprey Osprey 2
|Osprey 2
|Osprey 2
|Sport amphibian
|National origin
|United States
|George Pereira
|First flight
|April 1973
|Number built
|500+ (2009)[1]
The Osprey Osprey 2, also known as the Pereira Osprey 2 after its designer, is an amphibious sport aircraft designed for homebuilding.[2] Plans have been sold since the mid-1970s. George Pereira designed the Osprey 2 to address the two most frequent criticisms of his Osprey I aircraft: its lack of a passenger seat and its inability to operate from dry land.[3] An exercise that began as a series of modifications to the original design in January 1972 eventually turned into a complete redesign of the aircraft,[3][4] with the resulting Osprey 2 flying in April 1973.
Design and development[edit]
Like the original Osprey, the Osprey 2 is a mid-wing cantilever monoplane with a flying boat hull and a single engine mounted pusher-fashion in a nacelle mounted above the fuselage on struts.[4] A passenger seat is provided side-by-side with the pilot and the cabin is fully enclosed.[4] Retractable tricycle undercarriage is provided for land operations, the main units of which fold into the undersides of the wings.[3][4] Construction throughout is of wood and skinned in plywood.[3] Some of the hull contours are formed with polyurethane foam covered in fiberglass.[4][5]
The aircraft is designed so that it may be constructed by amateur builders with restricted space available – Pereira's prototype was built in a workspace 16 ft × 26 ft (4.8 m × 7.9 m) and took 1,300 hours to complete.[3] To simplify construction, no molds are required, and even the canopy is formed by a simple bend in an acrylic sheet without any compound curves.[6]
Osprey markets the aircraft as sets of plans rather than kits, and had sold over 1,000 copies by 1985.[1][4] Over 500 examples have been completed and flown.[7]

Cut Back Perennials
A little work now results in healthier spring beds: Evict tired annuals, as well as the snails and slugs that feed on them, which breed in fall. Trim spent perennial foliage down to the ground; this sends energy to the roots, for next season. Every three years, divide crowded tuberous plants, like irises and daylilies: More space means more flowers.

SSPE: Managing security policies for multiple firewalls
The Simple Security Policy Editor (SSPE) helps you organize your network and keep track of security policies across multiple firewalls. You can reference a central policy to generate rulesets for packet filters and VPN gateways.
Many networks require multiple firewalls. Firewalls guard the Internet gateway, separate the departments within an enterprise, and help to connect remote sites through VPN technology. In this scenario, it helps to have a central tool for managing firewall security policies. The pioneer in this field was the Checkpoint Firewall-1 GUI [3]. But this commercial package tends to be overcomplicated, with an overabundance of features – not all of them useful – adding to the tool's complexity. The free Simple Security Policy Editor (SSPE) [1] is far leaner. SSPE is basically a collection of shell and Perl scripts that help admins manage a distributed firewall environment.

The Clean Air Act and carbon hotspot deaths
This 2010 post from Brad Johnson is even more timely today given the efforts by conservatives to stop the EPA from fulfilling their mandate to regulate harmful emissions of carbon dioxide. I have comments from the study's author at the end.
The Clean Air Act requires the Environmental Protection Agency to set standards for plants, cars, and factories that emit greenhouse gas pollution. Because global warming is by definition a global problem, there is support for scrapping individual source standards for a national cap-and-trade system that limits the collective pollution, instead of local emissions. However, scientific research by Mark Z. Jacobson, finds that carbon dioxide pollution is a two-fold killer "" causing not just global warming but also forming "domes" that trap other pollutants in urban areas:
Jacobson found that domes of increased carbon dioxide concentrations – discovered to form above cities more than a decade ago – cause local temperature increases that in turn increase the amounts of local air pollutants, raising concentrations of health-damaging ground-level ozone as well as particles in urban air.
Jacobson's study, "Enhancement of Local Air Pollution by Urban CO2 Domes," published in Environmental Science & Technology, estimates that "reducing local CO2 may reduce 300-1000 premature air pollution mortalities/yr in the U.S. and 50-100/yr in California, even if CO2 in adjacent regions is not controlled." The deaths represent a small fraction of the population who are suffering increased respiratory problems from carbon domes.
Right-wing polluters have launched a multi-pronged assault on Clean Air Act regulation of global warming pollution, including petitions by state legislatures, lawsuits from governors and industry trade groups, resolutions in Congress, and propaganda campaigns by Astroturf groups….
— Brad Johnson in a WonkRoom repost
JR: And now the House has "voted to block the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating greenhouse gases that scientists say cause global warming." Here are some comments from Jacobson in an email interview:
Global warming increases air pollution where the air pollution is already high but has less effect on air pollution where the air pollution is low.
(in more detail) Warming increases water vapor, and both water vapor and higher temperatures increase ozone where the ozone is already high but have less effect where the ozone is low.
Carbon dioxide domes over cities increase temperatures over the cities above and beyond the heat island effect, and these higher temperatures increase water vapor, and both higher water vapor and higher temperatures increase the rates of chemical air pollution production over cities relative to rural areas.
The results suggest a causal nature of increased air pollution mortality due to increased carbon dioxide where the air pollution is already high. Thus, controlling CO2 emissions at the local level will reduce air pollution and the resulting air pollution mortality.

Sea ice extent in the Arctic lowest on record during January
January 2011 Northern Hemisphere sea ice extent was the lowest on record in January, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center. This was the second consecutive month of record low extent. Satellite records extend back to 1979. The area of missing ice was about twice the size of Texas, or 60% the size of the Mediterranean Sea. Ice was notably absent in Northeast Canada and Western Greenland, and Hudson Bay did not freeze over until mid-January, more than a month later than usual. This was the latest freeze-up on record, and led to record warmth over much of Northeast Canada. Frobisher Bay on Baffin Island had its warmest January on record, 1.1°C above the previous record set in 1985. Weather records for the station go back to 1942. http://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=1751

There are other pollutants that EPA regulate like sulfur, oxides of nitrogen, and mercury. If the levels of these pollutants are reduced, greenhouse gases will also be reduced. Conversely, regulation of greenhouse gases has a doubly positive effect as it also affects other harmful products of combustion. Is there a loophole here.
In any event, there are so many plus sides to regulating greenhouse gases that you don't have to believe in AGW to realize that there are positive side benefits to regulating greenhouses gases. Of course these troglydytes probably think that things like mercury and sulfides are fine as well. Anything that might impinge on the oil, coal, and chemical industries will be stopped under this congress.
George Soros: Tea Party Activists Being 'Used,' Obama's 'Lost Control Of Agenda' (VIDEO)
Memories Of 1995 Haunt GOP As Shutdown Talk Grows
The Tunisian virus has hit Wisconsin. There is confusion under Heaven-the situation is excellent. Or perhaps as Casals said 'The position is hopeless-we must take the next step'. Really, can it any longer be denied that 'the next step' is revolt? Not Libya, but Wisconsin, peaceful non-compliance with neo-feudalism, and species destruction. I mean, very, very, soon, if nothing is done, it will be taken out of our hands, and the 'next steps' will surely be into the abyss.
"Right-wing polluters have launched a multi-pronged assault on Clean Air Act regulation of global warming pollution, including petitions by state legislatures, lawsuits from governors and industry trade groups, resolutions in Congress, and propaganda campaigns by Astroturf groups…"
Today the GOP / Tea party took its head out of its collective backside just long enough to single handedly attempt trash the US tourist trade.
Yes folks tourists always wanted was to go on holiday to a country, where the rivers and aquifers are polluted with heavy metals and crap and where the air is so thick with pollutants that going outside is like smoking 400 cigarets a day…
Looks like people are staring to connect the dots…
Good article.
Yes. Air pollution is a very serious health hazard.
Here is an authoritative analysis on the evil effects of global warming and subsequent heat waves during which Air pollution concentrations may rise((Source: Health Implications of Global Warming: Vector-borne and Water-borne Diseases, Physicians for Social Responsibility United States Affiliate of International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War).
" Health Implications of Global Warming:
Heat's Deadly Effects
Global warming is likely to increase the frequency of "extreme heat events" or heat waves.
• For the twenty-first century, the IPCC projects with "high confidence" that extreme heat events will intensify in magnitude and duration over portions of the U.S. where they already occur.
• We cannot attribute a specific heat wave to global warming; however, the effect of global warming on the probability of occurrence of a heat wave can be determined. In the case of the European heat wave of 2003, a group of scientists publishing in the journal Nature estimated with a greater than 90% confidence level that human influence on climate more than doubled the probability of its occurrence.
Heat-related illnesses are serious and can lead to death.
• The most common heat-related illness is heat exhaustion, whose symptoms include intense thirst, heavy sweating, anxiety, dizziness, fainting, nausea or vomiting, and headache.
• Heat exhaustion may progress to heat stroke, which is a severe illness. Its clinical definition includes a core body temperature of 105°F or more, accompanied by hot, dry skin and central nervous system abnormalities such as delirium, convulsions, or coma.
• Mortality from heat waves is often related to cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory causes, especially preexisting illnesses.
• Air pollution concentrations may rise during heat waves, especially as people turn on air conditioning, thus increasing their use of electricity (which if generated by burning coal is a major source of pollution). This pollution may exacerbate preexisting conditions such as angina and asthma and may lead to increased death rates.
Extreme heat events are already a significant public health problem in the U.S.
• In fact, extreme heat events are responsible for more deaths annually than hurricanes, lightning, tornadoes, floods, and earthquakes combined.
• The health impact of extreme heat events will likely be exacerbated by the synergistic effects of a warming climate, urbanization, and an aging population.
Heat waves are already increasing.
• A roughly 20% overall increase in the number of heat waves – a "significant" upward trend — has been observed for the eastern and western U.S. for the period 1949 to 1995.
• In the European heat wave of 2003, an estimated 22,000 people died across Britain, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. vii Other mortality estimates run as high as 35,000.
• In Paris, sustained extreme high temperatures (including high night-time minimum temperatures), unique in the recorded history of Paris, together with housing designed for cooler summers, caused a major public health crisis. Deaths increased by 140%.
The elderly are at particularly high risk.
• Advanced age represents one of the most significant risk factors for heat-related death in the U.S.
• Elderly people have diminished ability to regulate body temperature and to adapt physiologically to heat. In addition, they generally experience poor health. The elderly are also more likely to live alone and have reduced social contacts, which further increases their vulnerability.
• This vulnerable population will grow as the elderly become an increasingly large proportion of the U.S. population".

I used sun dried tomatoes in olive oil with italian herbs because that is what I had on hand. This is a decent italian soup. I will make it again because it is super easy and fast.
The sauce to the soup was delicious but the beans killed it. On pasta it would have been fantastic. Beans and pesto just don't mix.
Fantastic flavor. I used the frozen butter beans from last summer's garden! Only pureed about 1 cup, so the soup is more liquid, but we like it that way. Made for everyday's a holiday tag. Thanks Mandy.

Cooperative transmission has been shown to be able to greatly improve system performance by exploring the broadcasting nature of wireless channels and cooperation among users. This paper proposes a cooperation strategy among rational nodes in a wireless cooperative relaying network as an effort to solve two basic problems, i.e., when to cooperate and how to cooperate. First, a symmetric system model comprising two transmitter nodes (TN) and one destination node (DN) is presented. In this model, each TN plays an equal role and acts as a source as well as a potential relay and has the right to decide the amount of power it should contribute for cooperation. Second, referring to the evolutionary game algorithm (EGA), the above problems are formulated as an optimal problem under certain constraints. Then, a cooperative strategy based on the EGA is proposed, in which TNs will cooperatively work and each will share a certain fraction of its power for relaying. With the moving of nodes, the EGA can adjust the power allocation parameters adaptively. Simulation results demonstrate that when cooperation takes place, the overall system transmission rate will benefit from the proposed strategy and those nodes with good channels will spend more power to cooperate with others.

European Business Jets Expands Fleet
Business Jet Traveler » December 2006
Friday, December 1, 2006 - 4:00am
Fractional ownership firm European Business Jets (EBJ) plans to expand its fleet through the addition of an aircraft management division. The company, based 70 miles north of London at Cambridge Airport, is also considering adding new airplane types, including very light jets such as Embraer's Phenom 100 and the HondaJet. Earlier this year, EBJ introduced the Experience Card as a block-charter option to allow new customers to experience the use of private aircraft by purchasing five flight hours for $27,730. About half of its 25 clients are currently flying under this plan.

Keith's Tattoo Tribute
When Keith Urban took the stage for his July 7 performance at the Live Earth concert in East Rutherford, N.J., he was sporting something new—a tattoo on his upper right arm that honors his wife Nicole Kidman.
The tattoo reads simply "Nicole" in large capital letters. It's likely Keith's way of thanking Nicole for her enduring support during his rehab stint for alcohol addiction in late 2006 and early 2007. "It's been one of the most impactful times of my whole life," Keith said about the rehab process. "But my wife stayed extraordinarily strong and loving." At Live Earth, Keith and R&B vocalist Alicia Keys entertained the crowd with a duet on the Rolling Stones classic, "Gimme Shelter."

it is a shame things liek this still go on in teh world.........
dude think about it
how woulda yall feel if u lost someone in the wtc
dont call this guy like pro-bush or anything cause losing someone is very tragic it screws u up for life....
Some retarded american wrote : "All you British bastards, sitting there drinking your tea and eating whatever the fuck you eat don't understand. I didn't lose anyone during the attacks, but it did anger me, a lot. Whats the worst that's happened to Britian? A V2 rocket hitting a building? Big...FUCKING....DEAL!". Now that there have been 2 explosions in London, his comment looks ridiculous at least, but even before these bombs, London was bombed a lot during WW2, while you weren't sure about joining Germany or Britain.
And talking of V2s, has anyone read the book 1984? 11 september remember me when the girl says "Imagine there is no war, no enemy, imagine that the Party is throwing these flying bombs at us to make us scared, more patriotic, to make us want the war, to make us do what Big Brother tells us to do" ...
I saw War of the Worlds some days ago, am i the only one that feels like Spielberg could have put some 9/11 scenes throught the movies and no one would have noticed? Well apparently not, as a relative of H.G.Wells(the guy that wrote the book that this movie is based on, ive read the book and its good, not like the movie), it was his nefew if i remember, and he said, after meeting Spielberg to talk about the movie, that Spielberg made his movie to use the potential given by the fact that americans are terrorized (as in scared) and very troubled about the terrorism and the war.
And yesterday G.Bush's administration made their move to make sure Asia is kept under control, allowing India to develop their civil nuclear program even if they don't allow U.N. inspectors to verify their nuclear weapons stockpiles and even if they haven't agreed to the Nuclear Weapons Non-Proliferation act, or whatever it is called in english.
Yeah, Iraq and Afghanistan sure were dangerous countries that were threats to world peace. India is a different story, even if they are basically at war with another nukes owning country (Pakistan) when they'll shoot their bombs, it will be on God enemies, i.e. the growing chinese market

My desire is a "safe" way to encode a given object to JSON. This is for a logging any abstract object in Node.js but can apply to other needs as well. My research pointed me to util.inspect in Node, but this isn't valid JSON, and my desire is to have valid JSON that I can re-hydrate later. Because some Error instances can have recursion issues, I needed to limit the response. Also, in some cases forward and back-references to objects can be an issue as well, so I want to avoid duplicate entries.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
I'm answering my own question below, as this was a bit difficult to come up with a working solution. It's the combination of a few solutions I've found, and seems to work well.
There is some extra logic for dealing with objects that are errors, and making sure to get necessary data from said errors, and from a given object's prototype. functions are expressly ignored in the response. When recursion goes too deep, it will return undefined for a given object.
There is a native javascript JSON object, with a stringify method, which is what you need, I think: http://www.javascripture.com/JSON#stringify

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Food and Drug Administration last week linked a multi-state salmonella outbreak to sprouts from Tiny Greens Organic Farm, based in Urbana, Illinois.

Each year, there are numerous events that take place throughout New York City. Some of these events, like New York Fashion Week, for example, are arguably more suited to adults, but others are entirely family-friendly. Some events are free and open to the public, while others require tickets, so be sure to look into any events you and your children would like to attend before heading to the city.
Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest
Ever since 1916, when the flagship Nathan's Famous hot dog shop was opened, people have flocked to Coney Island, the site of the first Nathan's, for the annual Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest. Kids of all ages can watch in awe as some of the world's best competitive eaters chow down on hot dogs for 10 straight minutes, each one trying to out-eat the others. Today, the contest draws a crowd of approximately 40,000. And in 2010, an additional 1.7 million celebrated American independence by watching the festivities on TV.
Fleet Week
Children intrigued by the armed services will surely enjoy all of the Fleet Week festivities, which typically take place in Manhattan around Memorial Day weekend. Each year, thousands of servicemen and women from the Marines, Navy and Coastguard come to the city for a week of celebration held in their honor. Activities open to the public include military demonstrations, technology exhibits designed to explain the various devices used by the armed forces at sea, and tours aboard participating military ships. The first New York Fleet Week took place in 1984.
New York International Children's Film Festival
Adults in Manhattan may have the Tribecca Film Festival, but kids as young as 3 can participate in an annual celebration of film designed specifically with them in mind. The New York International Children's Film Festival, originally established in 1997, is the largest film festival for kids in North America; more than 20,000 people attended in 2010. Each year, 100 new animated, action and experimental films from all over the world participate. Festival activities include film premieres, workshops, audience voting, Q-and-A sessions with filmmakers and an awards ceremony.
Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
Every year on Thanksgiving, roughly 3 million people line up along a two-mile stretch in Manhattan to watch the famed Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The parade, which first took place in 1924 and was originally designed as a Christmas parade, moves from Central Park West down to Herald Square, the site of the flagship Macy's store. This path has been used since 1946, which was also the first year the parade was televised. The Radio City Rockettes typically participate in the parade, as do a number of Hollywood and Broadway actors, actresses and musicians and a number of large floats that depict popular children's cartoon characters.

Don't buy into the media hype.
But just for arguments sake, I wouldn't have any other QB for the Colts. None of them can survive with that Oline...
Heyward-Bey was actually doing good on special teams lol
Well it's situational too, Colts use a lot of 11 personnel and these runs are against sub/nickel packages so it's going to be a lot harder to...
I don't think that's right.
His interceptions against the Chiefs were really dumb, but he was forcing throws because the team was by an insane...
Interior line is way too poor to run without stunts and doubles, Fleener can't block to save his life.
This is how the Colts will run the ball against the Pats, only effective way they can run it imo

Brady didn't make the plays that they needed him to. He simply choked. Better luck next year.

The Financial Industry Is Changing.
The topics of fragmentation, disintermediation, Regulation Fair Disclosure, Sarbanes-Oxley and high speed trading, are discussed in our 2008 paper "Information Flow and Finance: Compliance is a Poor Substitute for Accountability". This paper described, in laymen's terms, a three-phase accountability mechanism within financial institutions that was, in our view, inadvertently disabled via regulation, legislation and automation. In our view, that mechanism drove a powerful internal system used to optimize both profitability and product integrity in the form of well structured, sustainable, liquid financial products. Since that paper was written, billions of dollars have poured into the financial technology ("FinTech") sector. As FinTech matures, self-governance mechanisms could be reintroduced in an automated form.
We offer strategic assistance.
"Crowd funding, micropayment systems and block chain transactions ("financial innovations" or "innovations") are in various stages of international deployment. At their core, these are not new financial functions, but rather, examples of decentralized system architectures which influence dynamic capital allocation. In other words, by automating capital allocation, in full or in part, these innovations have the potential to impact the lifeblood of free market capitalism. As these innovations advance globally, policy and business issues will assuredly arise. In our view, these financial innovations represent the new diplomatic frontier of free market capitalism. They are not simply used to conduct capitalism: various forms of capitalism can be embedded within their very architecture." October 12, 2015, D. Talbot, Founder of One-on-One Research

DNC Website Expertly Mocks Mitt Romney's Elusive Tax Details
Head over to RomneyTaxPlan.com for a laugh.
Mitt Romney would have you believe that the reason he won't detail which loopholes and deductions his tax-reform plan would do away with is because he wants to work hand-in-hand with Congress to figure that out, together, as one. But pretty much every expert in the land has concluded that the real reason is that Romney's plan is mathematically impossible. Hence, the DNC's clever and amusing new website, RomneyTaxPlan.com, where a "Get the Details" button shifts around the page as you try to click it. What's weird is how long we kept trying. It's kind of fun.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Hybrid language teaching and learning, also referred to as blended learning, has become an increasingly popular model for the delivery of foreign language (FL) courses at the college level in the United States. HYBRID LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING: EXPLORING THEORETICAL, PEDAGOGICAL AND CURRICULAR ISSUES addresses a number of theoretical and applied topics related to hybrid/blended contexts. The volume is useful for readers unfamiliar with hybrid approaches, as several chapters highlight practical concerns and contain suggestions from authors who have experience implementing and maintaining college-level hybrid FL courses. In addition, the volume serves to disseminate empirical work that focuses on the linguistic outcomes of learners in hybrid FL learning contexts. Finally, the issue of open educational resources/open access is discussed in the context of hybrid FL courses.

Is there a way to create a Style that doesn't have a font color. The text that I want to apply the font to is already colored (different colors depending on the word), I just want they style to have the font size and background.
Styles were a big breakthrough in efficient document production in the early versions of Word, but it has gotten so complicated as to be more trouble than it is worth for most users.
In the style definition, there is a setting for "Style Based On" and one for "Style Type" -
Here you see two default styles built-in to Word 2007. Both have the font color set to blue. Here is the results of applying those styles to text where words have been individually colored:
As you can see, when the "Style Type" is "Linked" and "Style based on" is set to the Normal paragraph style, the color attribute of the style does not override any individual word colors. "Style Type" set to Character and "Style Based On" set to Default Paragraph Font DOES override individual colors.
When you define your own style you'll have choices for "Style Type" as shown here:
You should be able to get what you want by choosing Linked for "Style Type" and Normal for "Style Based On" in the style definition.
Although this is quite old but today I faced same issue & following is the solution (working in Word-2010):
Caution: Select Complete Paragraph including all the Paragraph marks associated with it.
I faced similar issue. During Copy/Paste & Applying the Style, sometimes Text color was changed & sometimes it was NOT. Answer of Dave Becker & Following Link helped me resolving this issue:
You can't actually create a style without a color; every style either has a color specified or inherits the color of its parent style. (Character styles based on the Default paragraph font style inherit font settings, including color, from the applied paragraph style.) But you can probably do what it sounds like you're wanting to do by using a paragraph style. If less than 50% of a paragraph has a particular direct formatting (i.e., formatting applied without using styles), it will be kept when the paragraph style is applied. (If it's more than 50%, you will have to reapply the colors.) A linked style may work too, but I tend to avoid those (except the built-in linked styles, including Normal and the Heading styles); they usually work fine, but they occasionally do weird things.
It may not be an option, but you may want create character styles for the individual colors you're using; applying a paragraph style shouldn't remove any formatting applied via character styles. (A linked style may or may not remove character styles, depending on how it's applied; one of the weird things linked styles do.)

WASHINGTON -- Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas is optimistic he will play in Sunday's Game 4 against the Cleveland Cavaliers, although the latest setback with his knee means his role could be more limited.
Arenas started and played only 10 minutes in Washington's Game 3 victory Thursday night. He limped off the court in the second quarter and did not return.
The three-time All-Star revealed Friday he missed two days of practice before Game 3, and an MRI exam taken before the game revealed that his surgically repaired left knee has a bone bruise and a pinched nerve.
"I knew I wasn't going to play more than 10, 15 minutes," Arenas said. "While I was out there, I was just trying to energize the crowd, get everybody excited about being home and get some people involved until my time was up."
Arenas said he started the game -- his first start since returning from surgery earlier this month -- because the knee stiffens up when he sits on the bench. He tried to keep the knee warm by riding an exercise bike when he wasn't in the game during the first half.
Arenas expects to have a similar role in Sunday's game.
"Once I go out, then it's a question of if I can come back in," Arenas said.
Arenas said doctors have told him he is not in danger of damaging the knee further by playing on it. He said he could take a shot to numb the knee, but he's "scared" of the needle.
"If we were on the road, I'd take the numbing shot and just play through it," Arenas said. "But since we're at home, guys' confidences are higher, so I can risk just going out there for 10, 15 minutes. If the game gets close, then I'll just play through the pain."
Coach Eddie Jordan said Arenas' return gave the team a spark as the Wizards cut Cleveland's series lead to 2-1.
"I thought it meant a lot. He got us out on the break. He did some good things," Jordan said. "He was like Willis Reed in reverse. We saw him walking out limping instead of walking in."

Hi there -
I'm making a Thematic Child Theme for a site that will have 2 main categories plus tons of sub categories. I'm currently using a custom menu for the primary navigation (including the 2 main categories) and I'm wondering: is it possible to automatically add all sub-categories as drop downs, rather than dragging and dropping manually??
