Definition of Cholesterol ester transfer protein
Cholesterol ester transfer protein: A protein that helps regulate the size of cholesterol particles and influence the process of atherogenesis (the formation of plaques in arteries). Abbreviated CETP. The CETP gene is in chromosome band 16q21. A number of mutations are known in the CETP gene. Some result in CEPT deficiency, increased levels of HDL ("good") cholesterol and unusually large cholesterol particles. CETP deficiency appears to be a good mutation which is antiatherogenic and may confer unusual longevity to the person. Also called cholesteryl ester transfer protein.Source: MedTerms™ Medical Dictionary

High Peaks Lodge is a beautiful 5,500 sq ft five bedroom luxury log home set on a 5 acre site with spectacular views from every room. On entering through the front door you come into the huge Great Room with a wall of glass at the end of the room framing a fabulous view of the Teton Mountain Range. The Master Bedroom suite is on this upper level to the left and on your right is a state of the art kitchen and dining room. There are two decks on this level; one can be accessed from the Master Bedroom or the Great Room with comfortable seating and the hot tub deck. The other deck is accessed from the kitchen/ dining room and has an outside dining area and BBQ/Grill as well as steps down to the huge patio and fire pit below. There is also a powder room on the main level.
On the lower level there are two guest bedrooms with a King size bed in each room. These two bedrooms share a full bathroom. The larger of these two bedrooms has a walk in closet and a TV with Direct TV and a DVD. Also on the lower level there is a children's dorm room with a bunk bed with a queensized bottom bunk, twin upper bunk. In this room there is also a twin bed with a pullout trundle underneath. The children's dorm room has a full bath with a jetted tub. The 5th bedroom has a twin bed and a pullout trundle as well as desk and a fully equipped office with internet access, laptop, printer and scanner. The entire house has broadband WIFI. There is a large media room with a 52' flatscreen HD TV, direct TV, surround sound and blu ray/DVD. There is also a table tennis/ping pong table in the media room and a remote control gas fireplace. The media room opens onto the outside patio and fire pit area.
On the lower level there is another full bath and a powder room. There is also a door in from the garage through the workshop directly into the house.
The house is located in a developed subdivision on a 5 acre lot but is secluded and peaceful. It is 8 miles from Wilson down Fall Creek Road and is adjacent to a 10,000 acre US National Forest. For guests interested in ski-ing the house is a 40 minute drive to the main ski area of Teton Village.
The entire house was recently completely remodelled and is in immaculate condition.
Keywords: Log home, house with views, house with land
Our family fell in love with this area the first time we stepped off a plane here. We love visiting with our parents and our children. There are so many great things to do every time we come we seem to find more ways to amuse ourselves. Although just sitting on our deck soaking up the views is as good a pastime as any other.
In the summer we love to hike from the house, fish in the Snake river just minutes away, cycle, horseback ride, white water raft, cayak, visit yellowstone the list is endless......In the winter we love to ski it's a short 17mile drive to the main ski area at Teton village and despite all sorts of record snow falls our roads are always plowed in time to hit the slopes. We also enjoy visiting the national elk refuge and the odd day of snowmobiling.
High Peaks blew us away! The first thing you'll notice upon entering the front door is the gorgeous view of the Tetons right in front of you. The house had everything we needed and more - we never even got a chance to fully enjoy the entertainment room downstairs. The hot tub really made a difference after a long day of skiing. The living room upstairs with its beautiful wood fireplace was the perfect spot to relax with friends. Hopefully we'll be able to come back next year and bring a bigger group!
This really is a fantastic place to stay. I'd say the photos give a good view of what you're going to get in terms of rooms, though if anything it felt a little bigger than that. The kitchen is very well supplied, and our party of 7 had no problems with catering. The views are absolutely spectacular. The moose photos are the real deal - we saw several in the area and tracks up the driveway one day.
If you're visiting in winter, you will want a 4WD for sure. The road and driveway were cleared nicely, but we were very glad to have capable vehicles. The internet is pretty slow - OK for minor browsing, but no go for much more than that. We did have good phone reception on a local carrier.
I'd be very happy to stay here again. I'm sure it's fantastic in summer.
High Peaks exceeded expectations all around! We had such a lovely time staying here. This was truly a "great experience" and many great memories were created on this trip. The home is gorgeous and there was plenty of room. The views of the Grand Tetons are phenomenal from a majority of the rooms. We enjoyed every amenity the house had to offer from the fire pit, to the gourmet kitchen, to the jacuzzi tub, to the gas grill, to the fireplaces…. the house has it all! The beds were heavenly, the heated floors in the bathrooms were great touch, and the layout ensured all the privacy you could want. Only problem was… we should have booked it for 2 weeks instead of just one! :-) We will be back!
This property is exceptional with million dollar views, all amenities, and comforts for up to 10 people (well, maybe not that many cars!).
We had a wonderful stay and recommend it highly. The only thing that could be better is internet reception but as the home is 12 miles from Wilson, I expect there are not many cell tower repeaters.
Bring your hiking and fishing gear and get ready for fun!
This was quite possibly the most outstanding rental experience I've ever had. In fact, thanks to our experience at High Peaks Lodge, it was one of the best vacations I've ever had. My family of 10 booked High Peaks for a reunion of sorts in the Tetons. The house was beyond incredible - the owners thought of every single detail to make our stay memorable and wonderful in every way. From the fantastically equipped kitchen (LOVE the AGA!!), to the physical layout of the house, the architecture, views, wildlife, artwork, fabric, furniture, landscaping, linens and all the personal touches that were so evident - everything was perfect. The house accommodated all of us with tons of room to spare, which is no small feat for a family of 10. High Peaks' location was perfect for us - we were able to take advantage of Jackson and the Park when we wanted to, but thanks to it being slightly off the beaten path in Wilson, we could dodge the summertime crowds as well. The owners were very responsive to our pre-arrival inquiries and provided resources for us via email. Their house manual was wonderfully thorough and not only gave us practical information about the house, but also provided helpful information about the area. I can't think of one thing, one aspect about our stay I would have changed. If I could, I'd rate High Peaks a 100 out of 10 - it was THAT amazing. We will DEFINITELY return!!
Our extended family of ten (6 adults, 4 kids) had a wonderful vacation in the Jackson area with High Peaks Lodge as our home base. We actually would have been pretty happy to spend all of our time in or around the house. The setting is gorgeous and the house is lovely, spacious and well-appointed. Everyone loved the house and we made good use of the fireplace, fire pit, and hot tub. There are also some nice walks/hikes right from the house. We'd love to return in the future.

Carroll University offers a master's degree and a graduate certificate program in software engineering. These programs are based on the assumption that professionals must remain current within the rapidly changing environment of information technology. The program uses real-world business projects and scenarios to educate professionals in the latest software development methodologies and practices.
The current coursework is based on these subject areas:• Advanced Programming Skills• Software Engineering Methodologies and Techniques• Multi-Paradigm Design and Implementation• Relational and Object Oriented Database Models and Implementation• Network and Client/Server Technologies and Techniques• J2EE and .NET Frameworks• Software Project and Team Management• Advanced software engineering knowledge areas
The software engineering program provides a graduate education that deepens and broadens the student's expertise, technical and management skills, and industry understanding. It maintains a balance between abstract, theoretical insights and their application. The program is faithful to the mission of Carroll University, which focuses on life-long learning, career preparation, and education for productive and meaningful lives.
All courses in the curriculum are based in current software development trend and technology but look towards the future. A particular technology is of value only if it is used as a tool for solving a current workplace related problem. Since future developments will soon make current solutions obsolete, the curriculum must provide experience and develop a knowledge base that will facilitate continuous learning. Upon completion of the Master of Software Engineering program, graduates are able to:1. Apply sound software engineering principles and methodologies in any software development process regardless of roles they may play as software developers, development leads, or software project managers.2. Problem-solve (mostly for business problems) at a higher level using enterprise resources, major Web software development frameworks, and sound software design methodologies.3. Be competitive in making sound judgment on any IT issues that are related to soft- ware development.4. Meet challenges of a software development process as information technologies advance.5. Be self-motivated and highly effective players in any team environment.
The Master of Software Engineering (MSE) is a 36-credit program, which is based on a model that emphasizes object-orientation, multi-tier data-driven development, and sound software engineering and design methodologies. The program has been approved by the Higher Education Learning Commission (HLC)/North Central Association. The 36 credits consist of the following 10 three-credit courses:
Plus two graduate level computer science elective courses
Software Engineering Internship
Students who did not have software development professional experience are encouraged to take internship course (CSC680) to gain some exposure to real-world software development. One of the required elective courses can be CSC680 (Software Engineering Internship). However, student must have completed 18 credit hours to be eligible for taking CSC680. International students can also take the internship course guided by the Curriculum Practical Training (CPT) Policies of the federal immigration regulations. Student can work full time during summer months. However, student must consult with Office of International Education about his/her eligibility and required procedure before he/she can register for the course.
Several different courses will be offered fall, spring, and summer semesters. Since the program is specifically oriented toward working professionals, classes may be offered in a hybrid format, that is, courses will meet periodically in a synchronous in-class mode with additional asynchronous components, as well as online format (noted at end of course description as WW). By taking only one class each semester, students may earn the graduate certificate in less than two years. Students may elect to complete two courses a semester and earn the certificate in less than one year.
Requirements for admission into the Master of Software Engineering program include the following:
Additional factors that may impact admission decisions:
Tuition for graduate courses in software engineering for 2016-17 is $687 per credit and the program fee is $108 per semester.
The following courses are offered through our Graduate Program.

I have an inheritance chain rooted A with sub types B and C. Next, I've an entity E like this:
public class E
public Guid Id {get; set;}
public B B {get; set;}
public C C {get; set;}
The navigation properties should be mapped to two one-2-one associations where E is the principal and B, C the dependents. This won't work because EF will use the value of E.Id as foreign keys for B and C, which will result in a duplicate key in the table A. It doesn't matter if I use TPT, TPC, or TPH.
If I would map it two two one-2-many associations and use distinct foreign keys in in E, i.e. with the mapping:
Than cascading delete wont work the in the right direction. That is E.B and E.C should be deleted when deleting e.
Any suggestions how to deal with this?

I've got a question related to the practical learning of programming skill.
I'm acquainted with basic programming stuff, know syntax and some concepts of several languages (Pascal, PHP, Python, now want to learn C#) and I debug quite a lot, so I can write (and have written) programs not bigger than 1000 lines of code for my own needs.
However what I'm looking for is some way to get to the intermediate level of programming. I mean: - Understanding how to solve complex tasks/projects, how to break them into smaller ones - Practical appliance of the design patterns kicking off the practical task (as I think it will be a lot easier to understand and remember than just reading about them) - Starting using OOP in a serious way
I have several project ideas that I would like to implement myself. However I don't want to write these projects without understanding how to write middle-sized projects properly. The knowledge that I have now is insufficient. I'd like to read something on this topic or get other ideas from the experienced engineers.
Thanks for the answers. Code Complete and Pragmatic Programmer are already in my reading list (I was going to start them after finishing some Python books), your recommendations are really helpful.

Guru EnglishSouth Asian Religion in a Cosmopolitan Language
By Srinivas Aravamudan
Princeton University PressCopyright © 2005 Princeton University Press

IntroductionImbued with a knowledge of objective sciences by English education, our people will be able to comprehend subjective truths. -Bankimchandra Chatterjee, Anandamath
IT IS A TRUISM, universally acknowledged, that English dominates the globe today as no language ever has in the recorded history of humanity. Despite the linguistic diversity of a world that features more than five thousand natural languages by some counts, a mere one hundred languages account for the mother tongue of 95 percent of the world's population, twenty-five languages for about 75 percent, and just twelve languages for about 60 percent. Second in terms of total number of speakers, English dominates by virtue of its stranglehold on global organizations as an international auxiliary or link language. Barring theories of the monolinguistic origin of the species that can never be proven, the observer can only look at existing examples of linguistic globalization in recorded history in order to glean the evidence.
A comparison of the current dominance of English with that of other languages at different times leads to the discovery that empires and religions have been the two most obvious vehicles of linguisticuniversalism. Sometimes a universalizing religion inherited a language-vehicle from a successful empire, as the Catholic Church did from the Romans, thereby establishing Latin as an administrative and scholarly medium of communication across Europe for a millennium and a half. In the case of Arabic, the situation developed the other way around, whereby the political ambitions of the caliphs spread it around the Mediterranean and West Asia from Spain to Persia and India for at least half a millennium, even though various political empires had actually inherited the language from Islam's humble origins as an iconoclastic desert religion. Pan-Arabism has still kept modern Arabic alive as a viable lingua franca throughout western Asia and northern Africa, and to a limited extent in other places where Islam is a presence. Mandarin Chinese, demonstrably the tongue with the greatest number of speakers today, remains one of the stable legacies of Han imperial suzerainty, even if there is no significant religious impulse to spread it beyond familiar ethnic confines. The case of Sanskrit reveals a pattern of survival that is exactly opposite to that of Chinese. A largely sacerdotal language with only sporadic instances of political backup, Sanskrit has nevertheless survived for well over three millennia. Although still very much in use for ritual and religious instruction throughout South Asia and wherever Hinduism has a foothold, from Bali to Trinidad, Sanskrit is now largely a dead, classical language imbued with symbolic meaning. Hindi and Bengali, two of Sanskrit's many descendants, are counted among the top ten spoken languages in the world, but there is considerable resistance in India to Hindi as a national language. German and Russian had correspondingly greater and lesser roles-now vastly diminishing-because of their histories of joint political dominance in central and eastern Europe, and for the latter, also in central Asia. Japanese is important in east and southeast Asia, but is becoming less so with the importance of English as an international auxiliary language. The role of Swahili, initially promoted by Pan-Africanists, has declined along with the other political goals of the movement. All the same, francophone Africa and the hispanophone Americas continue to sound their different imperial and postcolonial legacies. Spanish is certainly one plausible transcontinental alternative still competing with English.
Turning to the case of English, it is obvious that events have conspired (although by no means as irreversibly as some might assume) to give it its current status. That the world has moved from the dominance of the British Empire in the late nineteenth century to the United States as unilateralist hyperpower by the twenty-first century without having to change the language of imperial dominance (save dialectal differences from British to American English) is perhaps a fortunate (depending on already acquired English proficiency) or unfortunate turn of events for the new rulers as well as the ruled. It is not merely the political dispensation at hand that ensures English supremacy at this point: the cultural and technical vocabularies of science and technology, capitalist business economics, and television and media have instituted an even more important role for English to play as the ultimate knowledge base from which other languages can be launched or situated in relation to each other. English is still a minority elite language in the world, as any imperial or religious language always has been, to a lesser or greater extent. But English's strong connection with computers, medicine, business, media, higher education, and communications-well before all these areas exploded globally-makes its dominance even greater than did the twentieth century's handover of global political supremacy to the Americans. It is arguable whether a future Chinese domination of the globe (as some futurologists predict) would, if it did occur, nonetheless maintain the highly differentiated and specialized functions that English has already come to play, with ramifications that are legal, technical, and communicational.
While the simple abstraction of English-in-general has potentially a very long history ahead of it, there are also differentiations that occur within the language as it spreads itself. Languages do not always remain unified, as the history of Latin's or Sanskrit's multiple offspring demonstrates. This book focuses on the global impact of Indian English in the spirit of identifying a discrepant cosmopolitanism within it. Much has already been made of the peculiarities of English in South Asia, as a dialect and lingua franca with considerable cosmopolitan appeal. In terms of the total numbers of English speakers, India now ranks third in the world, after the United States and Great Britain. In India, maybe 3 to 5 percent of the population speaks English fluently (approximately 30 million to 50 million speakers), an especially significant minority constituting most of the elite and a section of the urban upper middle classes. If passive comprehension of English vocabulary were included, the figures would increase considerably. While such class parameters suggest that the language remains an acrolect-or a language spoken largely by elites-studying this language's iterations and performances leads to new and interesting discoveries. Before positing a historical essence (whether postcolonial, bureaucratic, or technological) bound up with English's role, significance, and global outcome, it would be best to track the many anomalous refashionings of the language and reflect on their variety.
First introduced in South Asia by Christian missionaries in the seventeenth century, English made few inroads until the expansion of the activities of the East India Company. While Western colonialism and Christian evangelism often went hand in hand around the globe in the last few centuries, it is well known that the record in South Asia is especially complicated; from the outset, important conflicts arose between missionary and commercial agendas. The English Bible was one of the first texts to be translated into a number of South Asian vernaculars. Several outstanding discussions of the impact of the Bible in colonial South Asia have transformed our understanding of the consolidation of national identities as well as the elaboration of transcultural differences. By 1823, learned natives such as Raja Rammohun Roy were petitioning the company's authorities to make English education, especially of the scientific and secular variety, more widely available. The culmination of this process was the much-discussed Macaulay Minute that was approved on March 7, 1835, a document that declared in the voice of the British rulers that they needed "a class who may be interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern-a class of persons, Indians in blood and colour, but English in taste, in opinion, in morals and in intellect." The same document also disparages native learning with the phrase that "a single shelf of a good European library [is] worth the whole native literature of India and Arabia." British imperial rule therefore unapologetically replaced Persian, the prestige language under the Mughals, with a new one, English.
An Indian form of English-and therefore its development as a new South Asian vernacular rather than just as an imperial echo-first acquired recognition, paradoxically, when representatives of high Victorian imperialism dismissed it as a bureaucratic cant of the native functionaries and interpreters of the Raj, a "Baboo English" or "Cheechee English," to be literally ridiculed and disparaged. Even lesser variants began to be recognized, such as Butler English, Bearer English, Box-Wallah English, Kitchen English, and Hinglish (Hindi-English). By February 1830, the first issue of an English-language journal in Calcutta entitled The Parthenon called itself the voice of people who were "Hindu by birth, yet European by education"-in other words, the voice of those multilingual and bicultural intermediaries of imperial governance. While educational qualifications in the many vernacular languages conferred much less prestige, being a colonial functionary, or baboo, engendered considerable frustration and intellectual alienation from both the Anglo-Indian elite and indigenous traditions. The baboo began to be satirized as a volatile mixture of the dregs of imperialist culture and the heights of philosophical absurdity. The baboo stereotype-from Rudyard Kipling to Peter Sellars-features a singsong accent, clownish head-nodding, pretensions to erudition, credentializing anxieties, a moralistic tone, a liberal use of clichés and mixed metaphors, and incongruous literal translations into English from the vernacular. Baboo English (as Indian English) is also subject to interferences from typical features of South Asian languages that are uncommon in English-such as the function of word reduplication as an intensifier ("little little children"; "very very nice"). Recognizing this hybrid and ridiculous subject as an anomaly several decades later, in 1874 a writer in Mukherjee's Magazine would metaphorically wring his hands in an article entitled "Where Shall the Baboo Go?" Baboo (or Babu) English eventually became the butt of Victorian satire and the prized linguistic object of colonial lexicographies such as Colonel Henry Yule's and A. C. Burnell's famous Hobson-Jobson.
Sociolinguistics has attempted to separate analytically distinct aspects of Indian English, such as the instrumental function (in establishing prestige and social hierarchy), the regulative function (in law, administration, and business), the interpersonal function (as a link language within modernity), and the innovative function (in literature or cultural production). While the first three aspects have always been very important, in the last two centuries of the reception of English in South Asia-and hence the ubiquity of the baboo stereotype-it is only in recent decades that greater attention is being paid by the literati to the imaginative and innovative function of cultural production supported by dialectal-as well as political-independence. Post-independence writers from G. V. Desani to Salman Rushdie, and Indian cinema and media have since disseminated an Indian English dialect (with regional variants) that has gone global in its quest for new markets and audiences. India is among the ten largest book-producing countries in the world and the third-largest producer of English-language books after the United States and Great Britain. It produces more full-length feature films than any country in the world, in multiple languages, but frequently with significant English content. Even so, a recent comprehensive literary history of anglophone writing in India is scathing in its characterization of the imaginative literature, through its title, as Babu Fictions. Old habits die hard, and older slurs find newer and more persuasive contexts for their justification: while from the British point of view, the indigenous speaker of English could never shed his "Indianness," now it has become fashionable to assert that anglophone Indians can never shed their compromised elite status. To the extent that the English language is seen reductively as the expression of upper-class status and perspective alone, its capacity to represent the larger social whole is found lacking. Appearing to its speakers as a combination of prestige and disparagement, English represents a complicated status for South Asians that linguists have called diglossic differentiation, or the continual awareness of a relationship between high and low variations. Therefore, Probal Dasgupta calls Indian English an "auntie" (as opposed to mother) tongue, because "the meaning of English in India is not an independent referential potential, but a cross-referential or anaphoric meaning." A dependent or diglossic relationship makes English in India refer itself either to non-English speaking natives (with implicit superiority), or non-native metropolitan speakers from Britain or the United States (with implicit inferiority). English nonetheless remains the pathway to modernity, science, and business opportunity. Even though India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and other South Asian countries are in the sixth decade after formal independence from British suzerainty, Macaulay, it would appear, continues to have the last laugh.
Following a specific line of inquiry arising from these more generalized literary and linguistic antecedents, this book explores Guru English as a language variant of South Asian origin. There are at least four major aspects of this phenomenon. First of all, in its most literal sense, Guru English is not so much a dialect (even though it might be linked to dialectal variations of Indian English) or a jargon (even though it might frequently possess an esoteric and technical vocabulary), as it is an example of what linguist Michael Halliday has called a register. However, this definition would have to be applied in an expanded sense, as the notion of register is linked to the language of a clearly demarcated socioprofessional group (such as doctors, lawyers, or engineers), whereas Guru English does not function only within such parameters. Anglophone scholars and proselytizers of South Asian religions (especially Hinduism and Buddhism in their revivalist and cosmopolitan versions) use this register in search of audiences who can "only connect" via English. Aspects of free play and innovation within the syntax, vocabulary, and rhetoric of this specific register can be discerned through multiple examples cited by religious practitioners throughout the chapters that follow. As register, Guru English is a theolinguistics, generating new religious meanings. Analyzing religion through language, and language by religion, Guru English is a practice nourished by eighteenth-century orientalists and twenty-first-century gurus alike.

Abstract65496 Future fusion magnet systems, as well as high energy physics (HEP) superconducting magnets, require the use of insulation systems capable of withstanding significant mechanical loads at both cryogenic and elevated temperatures, while also enduring high doses of radiation. New magnet designs have put an increased demand on the insulation, requiring that it withstand higher radiation doses, higher temperatures, and higher stresses. Conventional epoxy-type insulation systems do not meet the higher operational requirements of these new devices. This project will develop and evaluate innovative, radiation-resistant electrical insulation materials, fabricated as high-pressure laminates (HPL) using unique organic hybrid systems. In Phase I, both organic and inorganic components for the production of new HPL materials will be selected, based on their radiation-resistance, and a corresponding high-pressure lamination process will be developed. Processing properties such as fabric impregnation, tack, resin flow, and pressure lamination will be examined. Specimens will be fabricated and tested for mechanical and electrical properties and evaluated use in large-scale production. Commercial Applications And Other Benefits as described by awardee: Insulators with improved radiation-resistance; improved mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties; along with ease of fabrication should significantly reduce the cost of magnet fabrication and extend the useful lifetimes of magnets in future fusion and HEP devices.

Large traditional hotel on the main strip with a nice little relax area w sauna and steam sauna. Perfect after a day of hard skiing. Cortina is really a jewel and is full of life. Our room was fazing the main street but we didn't hear any traffic, only the water rushing past in the small river. Quite nice breakfast and very helpful staff.

This summer has seen the departures of two rather prominent Saturday Night Live regulars, Kristen Wiig and Andy Samberg. Wiig, who appeared in last year's hit comedy film Bridesmaids, made her emotional departure from the series in the 37th season finale. Samberg, meanwhile, announced that he would be leaving the series a few weeks afterward. The two had been rumored to depart, along with another Saturday Night Live cast member: Jason Sudeikis.
Sudeikis, 36, has been on the fence regarding a potential departure from the series for months. It's possible that the comedian will at least reprise his role as presidential candidate Mitt Romney (and possibly Vice President Joe Biden) in the lead-up to November's presidential election, but beyond that, his continued role on the series is in doubt.
Sudeikis, for one, wants a greater creative role on the series if he decides to return. "I'd like the opportunity to use creative muscles that... haven't been asked of me for the first nine years that I've worked there," he told the Los Angeles Times. "It could be some sort of title change."
That's what it would take for him to stick around, he maintains: "To stay [on the show] just for the juice of being in the public eye - of being Mitt Romney - is not enough."
The comedian, who starred in the 2011 comedies Hall Pass and Horrible Bosses, wants to movie on to bigger and better things with his career. "You start at SNL when you're young and hungry, but I don't want my pro years to be my SNL years," he said, hinting at an exit.
SNL cast members Seth Meyers and Kenan Thompson have been on SNL for longer than Sudeikis. Meyers currently serves as the show's head writer.
Sudeikis appears in the new Will Ferrell/Zach Galifianakis comedy The Campaign, which opened in theaters this weekend.
What do you think? Should Sudeikis play a greater role within SNL, or is it time for him to hit the road?
SNL will return for season 38 in September.
Yes, He should get whatever he wants. The guy is hillarious and pulls off his characters with ease.

Hollywood Babble On Podcast - 8/24 cancelled (self.nmsu)
submitted 4 years ago by halogoddess1
I was in Cruces today picking up some stuff, and the BF and I went to go see Fright Night at the movie theater in the mall. I had purchased tickets back in early July to go see Kevin Smith and Ralph Garman do "Hollywood Babble On" on 8/24. All the signage indicated it has been cancelled! When presenting my tickets for a refund, one of the managers said that because of poor ticket sales, it was likely they pulled out of the show.
I of course was saddened, because last year I saw SModcast and Tell 'em Steve Dave and had a blast. I bought these tickets as my birthday present for myself, and was really looking forward to some silliness.
So, if any fellow Las Cruces redditors bought tickets, go get your money back!
Super bummed!
there doesn't seem to be anything here

About the only thing new quarterback Trent Green led the Miami Dolphins offense to Saturday night was a smattering of boos.
Green struggled in his Dolphins debut, underthrowing receivers and managing just 60 yards on 6-for-15 passing with one interception in Miami's 18-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the exhibition opener for both teams.
Green, the Dolphins' biggest offseason acquisition, took every snap in the first half and led the Dolphins to just four first downs in six possessions. He exited amid boos from the crowd at Dolphin Stadium in four of his last five drives, and led Miami to only one scoring drive - a 26-yard field goal by Jay Feely.
"It's a crazy business," said Green, who added he didn't hear the jeers. "People can respond to different things. I don't take a lot of that too much to heart being that it's the first preseason game. That's why you play preseason games."
Browns 16, Chiefs 12: At Cleveland, with their future quarterback watching and waiting, Cleveland's two leading QBs moved their fight to be the Browns' starter to the preseason.
Rookie Brady Quinn stood with a clipboard during his first NFL preseason game, a win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Packers 13, Steelers 9: At Pittsburgh, good thing for Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin this one didn't count. Brett Favre, too.
Neither Roethlisberger nor Favre did much as Packers backup Aaron Rodgers threw a touchdown pass and led two other scoring drives in Green Bay's victory.
Panthers 24, Gaints 21: At East Rutherford, N.J., with or without Michael Strahan, the New York Giants defense has a lot of work to do after being exposed by the Carolina Panthers.
Jake Delhomme and Steve Smith combined for an opening-drive touchdown pass to lead the Panthers to a victory.
bears 20, texans 19: At Houston, Matt Schaub's first pass for the Houston Texans was for 2 yards. His second one was dropped.
Schaub had an inauspicious debut going 3-for-5 for 25 yards in a loss to defending NFC champion Chicago.
Redskins 14, Titans 6: At Nashville, Tenn., anyone curious to see how Vince Young has improved since he was last seen in the Pro Bowl must wait a week.
Young, who was benched for violating a team rule, sat on the sidelines as the Washington Redskins pull edout a win over the Titans.

There's not more frustrating than just after you made a bad move, you realize that you could ended the game quickly.
In this game, I played black and after some mistakes by both sides and some blunders we come to the position above after my 27...Bc2+, the white played 28.Kc1
After miss this chance, I blundered a lot and white equalized, so we come to this position with a mate in 2!
Agora com o Torneio Tactics Trainer você vai melhorar bastante...
An enjoyable post and I can only say that doing half an hour a day on the tactics trainer will make you much better at spotting these.

Most of the kids at this week's Roane State's Basketball Camp have a dream of one day playing in the NBA, and Roane State head coach Randy Nesbit is teaching some of the moves of NBA stars like Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Kidd and Derrick Rose in an effort to one day help them reach that goal.
The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency has established a walleye stocking program in the Watts Bar Reservoir by recently releasing more than 220,000 fingerlings in the lake. The young walleye were raised at the Eagle Bend Fish Hatchery and were stocked in various locations around the reservoir to augment sauger stocking in Watts Bar.
Roane State women's basketball head coach Monica Boles had a busy week last week as she along with several assistants hosted the 2011 Roane State Raiderette Basketball Camp.
It took a little longer than most people expected, but former Rockwood Tiger Jeff Inman will be playing college football.
Federal fish hatcheries responsible for raising 60 percent of all trout in Tennessee are in jeopardy due to proposed federal budget cuts.

OJP Enhanced 1.2 problem
First off, I'm new here, so I would like to say hi to everyone in the LucasForums.
Now, I've downloaded ojp enhanced 1.2 and installed it correctly. Everything works fine until one moment:
I was planning to do some kind of Jedi Purge (just imagination) on tatooine with Stormtroopers on the red team and all kinds of jedi in blue team.
I was hoping that this would be a fun game, but I was quite disappointed:
The jedi's were completely massacred. In the whole blue team, I was the only one fighting against stormtroopers, the others (bots) were running around brainless. They got easily killed by Stormies.
So the problem is-> Red team in TFFA in OJP E 1.2 attacks, while Blue team just runs around, (don't forget that they're bots).
I've checked everywhere for a solution but it seems I'm the only one having this problem. I've installed and reinstalled OJP 1.2 and even JKA but it still comes back.
I have Vista and a very good computer which runs GTA IV smoothly...
EDIT: This is everywhere, CTF, CTY, TFFA, as long as there are teams. Rebels (blue team) just don't fight ! ... :/
Do the NPCs attack the red team? I think the problem is that the red team is on the same team as the stormtroopers and therefore don't attack their "teammates".
Nonono, not like that.
I go to create game, choose Team Free for all and choose the tatooine map ok?
Next, I choose the bots with 32 open player spots.
Every red line, I change it to stormtrooper and every blue line I change it into Jedis.
This sets the red team full of stormies and Blue team full of Jedis ok ?
I begin game:
I'm the only one in the Blue team who's killing stormies. The other blue team members only run around and get shot by Stormies. Thus: RED team attacks, While BLUE team only runs around... and doesn't attack at all. You can try it to see if it happens with your computer.
- How many skill points is the game starting with? It's possible that the jedi don't have enough points to get a lightsaber and therefore can't attack. Have you tried it with just jedi vs jedi? If they run up and start punching each other, that means the point level is set too low.
- It could be a AI bug.
It's an AI bug I guess. The Skill Points are atleast 500 every game, so I'm sure everyone has a saber or gun and can fight. Blues just don't fight. I can see their lightsabers, they're running with it being ingnited but just don't attack...
What happens if you spawn them in manually while ingame?
Same thing: TAB Bots run around and get massacred by red team. AOTC bots, never tried. Normal bots jump around and get massacred by red team.
This is a general bug. If I set bots before or in the game, blue team won't attack. This problem also ruins CoOp, as the "goodies" (friendlies) don't attack, they do nothing but follow me, while enemies attack me the whole time... Weird thing is that in OJP 1.1, everything was going well, except CoOp, that's wy I downloaded 1.2. I think I'm going to downgrade to get more fun again fgs, but then the gameplay is different..
Yep, sounds like a bug. sorry!
In which folder is the AI behaviour stocked ??
There are some AI character definition files but I don't remember where they are. But this sounds like a coding issue and not something that can be fixed with the AI definitions. Bug the OJP team until they fix it. :)
Ok, gonna post on your site after having registered and really, reaaaaalllly bug them lol :)
Go ahead and bug away. Just be patient with some of the more harsh persons. They mean well but are wary of people dropping in and telling them something is wrong.
Ooh ok, thanks for advice, I've already posted something and it appears to be fixed for 1.3. By the way, katanamaru, if you were the guy I was talking to about the animations for the guns, then I got an idea! :) I will post it here and on the other forum, if I can the right section.
OJP enhanced 1.2 Problem
I'm having problems playing with this mod. Is OJP enhanced 1.2 compatible with windows 7? it crashes at the start of multiplayer idk why..

On a teeny little farm, in an itty-bitty coop, a very small hen laid a big, giant egg. And out of this egg came one big, humongous . . . something. "It's big " clucked the little rooster. "It's enormous " clucked the small chicken. "It's anelephant " peeped the smallest chicken. "Run for your lives " they cried. No matter how they try, these clueless chickens can't make sense of the gigantic new member of their familyuntil he saves the day. With wacky, laugh-out-loud humor and silliness to spare, this BIG twist on the classic Chicken Little story lends a whole new perspective to what it means to be chicken.

chicken corn rivel soup
Login to add to your Recipe Box
Upload Your Photo
- 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- Table salt and ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion , chopped
- 2 celery ribs , chopped
- 2 quarts water
- 2 bay leaves
- Pinch saffron threads
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg yolk , beaten with 1 tablespoon water
- 2 ears corn , kernels removed from cobs, or 1 cup frozen corn
1. Pat the thighs dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking. Working in two batches, cook the thighs, skin-side down, until deep golden brown, about 6 minutes. Turn the thighs and lightly brown the second side, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from the pot. Cook the onion and celery over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, remove and discard the skin from the thighs. Add the thighs, water, bay leaves, saffron, and 1 tablespoon salt to the pot. Cover and simmer until the broth is flavorful, about 30 minutes. Add the chicken breasts and simmer until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
2. Strain the broth into a large container, let stand at least 10 minutes, then skim the fat from the surface. Meanwhile, transfer the chicken to a cutting board to cool. Reserve the thigh meat for another use. Shred the breast meat and reserve for the soup.
3. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until nutty brown, about 3 minutes. Let cool. Add the broth to the now-empty Dutch oven and set over medium-high heat. When the broth comes to a simmer, place the flour in a bowl and make a well in the center. Add the yolk mixture and 2 tablespoons of the browned butter to the well and, using your hands, mix until incorporated. Following the photos, use your fingers to form the dough into

ALBANY, N.Y. — They might have been Peter, Noel and Mary, but the powers that be behind the group decided that Noel Paul Stookey's middle name sounded better with the others. So in public it was Paul.
Since Mary Travers died in September 2009 of the side effects of chemotherapy after treatment for leukemia, Stookey and Peter Yarrow have performed occasionally as a duo. As a trio, Peter, Paul and Mary defined the 1960s with such historically significant songs as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "If I Had a Hammer."
"These concerts, of which there have been maybe a dozen this year and might be as many as a half dozen next year, are part of a way for Peter and me to say goodbye to Mary with an audience," says Stookey in a recent phone interview from his home on the coast of Maine. "And the audience ends up to a large extent becoming Mary by virtue of singing her part, while Peter and I do the familiar harmonies."
The male duo have published an illustrated book of the classic poem "The Night Before Christmas" by Imagine/Peter Yarrow Books. Embedded in the back cover, a three-track CD contains Peter, Paul and Mary's 1963 holiday hit "A' Soalin" and two versions of the Christmas poem — Stookey's enchanting musical rendition, accompanied by his guitar, and Travers' haunting reading, accompanied by a gentle background score written by Yarrow and Stookey.
The poem by Clement C. Moore, originally titled "A Visit from St. Nicholas," was first published Dec. 23, 1823, in the Troy, N.Y., Sentinel (even though the book's back flap reads the "New York Sentinel"). Travers' recording of it last year was the last recording she made.
"Peter and the recording engineer visited Mary in her home in Connecticut to record the piece," Stookey says. "Mary was in fragile health at that point. She was on oxygen. She recorded it, I think, in June and passed away in September.
"So rather than reading the poem in a proclamation voice, or an oratorical voice, she read it almost as if she were confiding it to a child, as if she were telling the poem in a conspiratorial whisper before bedtime. And of course it's absolutely lovely, charming and devastating."
Even though Travers was sick, she embraced the project, Stookey says. She loved poetry, he says.
"This was not stepping out for her so much as it was a continuance of her interest and unique contribution to the group," he says, beginning to laugh, "aside from the fact that she was a dish, a 5-foot-10 bombshell."
Travers was the beautiful blonde, Yarrow the serious male, and Stookey the lanky cut-up. He had been working as a stand-up comedian and folk singer in Greenwich Village when the three musicians came together in 1961.
Their release the next year of the Lee Hays-Pete Seeger "If I Had a Hammer" propelled them to the forefront of the protest movement that marked the decade. Their defining moment may have been Aug. 28, 1963, when, as part of the massive "March on Washington," highlighted by Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, they stood before the Lincoln Memorial and sang "If I Had a Hammer" and Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind."
"The March on Washington, or meeting the Queen of England, or meeting the Beatles, those are major events that are a part of my life and memory," Stookey says. "But it's just as real to have somebody come up to us and say the classic, 'I grew up with your music.' And we're able to look them in the eye and say back, 'Yes, we grew up with our music, too.' We were all growing up in that era.
"And then they share some personal anecdote that makes their relationship to us that much more real. I think folk music kind of engenders this comradeship, this sense that we're consciously trying to make the world a better place. It's a very attractive community, very simpatico."

When the scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) is adopted in the registration of remote sensing images, a lot of incorrect matches of keypoints will appear owing to the significant difference in the image intensity between remote sensing images compared to visible images. Scale-orientation joint restriction criteria are proposed to achieve robust feature matching for keypoints in remote sensing images. Moreover, the feature descriptor of each keypoint is also refined to overcome the difference in the gradient intensity and orientation between remote image pairs. Experimental results for multidate, multispectral, and multisensor remote images indicate that the proposed method improves the match performance compared to intensity- and SIFT-based methods in terms of correct-match rate and aligning accuracy.

As a closed-end fund, shares of our Common Stock are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Thus, our asset base is not as subject to wide fluctuations due to shifts in investor sentiment as is the asset base of an open-end (mutual) fund. This stability has enabled us to diligently pursue our long-term analytical approach and, we believe, has contributed to our long-term investment results.
Over the 50 years ended December 31, 2015, the return to our common stockholders (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions) was 11.3% per year and the net asset value return (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions) was 11.6% while the return on the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index (including income) was 9.7% per year. See Annualized Results for further information concerning return data for varying time periods over the last 50 years. These data reflect past performance and may not be indicative of future results.
At the time the Company was established in 1927, Frank Altschul became President and portfolio manager. When the title of Chairman was created in 1948, he served as Chairman followed by his son, Arthur G. Altschul (1961-1995), then Lawrence B. Buttenwieser (1995-2007) and our current Chairman, Spencer Davidson. During this period, only six individuals have served as President and/or portfolio manager: Harold F. Linder (1948-1955), Harry G. Friedman (1955-1961), Malcolm B. Smith (1961-1989), William J. Gedale (1989-1995), Spencer Davidson (1995-January 31, 2012), and Jeffrey Priest (effective February 1, 2012).

Fields of Study - Dance
Definition and Nature of the FieldDance is an art form that is enjoyed in many forms whether it is as a leisure activity or as a career. Dance forms include modern, ballet, contemporary, jazz, tap, ballroom and folk dance. Careers in dance may be divided into the areas of teaching, performing and related areas of employment. Dance teachers conduct dance programs in school systems, private dance studios, and community agencies/organizations such as the YMCA and the community center. Performers work as professional dancers on stage and in entertainment. Additionally, there are a variety of related careers in dance including choreographer, therapist, historian, technologist and critic.
The dance teacher in the school system is often referred to as the dance specialist. S/he is responsible for providing an educational dance program that includes a variety of dance forms as well as aesthetics, history and critical analysis of dance. The dance specialist may teach all dance classes in a specialized school such as a performing arts magnet or teach one or two dance classes per day in a traditional school setting. The dance teacher may work in a commercial studio or community agency/organization. In this setting, the teacher generally focuses on dance technique and performance. Non-certified dance teachers may be invited to teach classes or workshops as a guest artist, but will not normally be allowed to teach dance in a school system as a permanent member of the teaching staff. There are many ways to become a dance teacher. Some train specifically as a teacher while others come into teaching after having had a successful career as a performer. Individuals desiring to teach dance as a permanent fulltime teacher in a school system must hold an undergraduate degree from an accredited teacher education program at a college or university and a teaching certificate awarded by the State Board/Department of Education in the state of employment. Those wishing to teach dance in a commercial studio or community agency/organization should have several years of training in a variety of dance forms. You could choose the BFA or the BA degree in Dance, and use electives to add additional areas.
The professional dancer finds employment opportunities in ballet and contemporary dance companies or in entertainment such as local shows and musicals, television programs, theme parks, cruise ships, stage productions, television and film. A professional dancer's performing life is usually relatively short. Many performers turn to teaching or find other careers related to dance after the career as a performer has ended. The B.F.A. is the degree recommended for a professional dancer.
Related Careers
Choreographers create dances for dance companies, television, movies, videos, etc. Most choreographers have been performers prior to becoming established choreographers. Most B.A. and B.F.A. dance degree programs offer training in choreography as part of the program.
Dance Administrators manage a dance company or a dance theater, work for an arts council, market dance products, and/or handle public relations. The BA degree with a minor in courses in business marketing and management courses as well as communication courses are helpful in developing skills as a dance administrator.
Dance/Movement Therapists employ dance to encourage individuals to recognize and convey ideas and feelings through movement that they may not be able to convey verbally. They work with a wide variety of individuals including people who are emotionally disturbed, have learning difficulties or a physical or mental illness, and individuals who want to use the medium for personal growth. Therapists are employed in rehabilitation centers, psychiatric facilities, geriatric programs and in programs for persons with disabilities. A bachelor's degree in dance or a related field, dance therapy certification. Advanced training past the bachelor's degree level may be required. Programs can include courses such as: adapted physical education, special education, geriatrics and psychology.
Dance Historians study the history of dance and its importance to and functions in society. Historians study, research, discusses and writes papers, articles and books about the history dance. The bachelor's degree should include courses in writing, research techniques, and anthropology.
Dance Technologists use existing and emerging computer and related technologies to extend traditional dance practice and develop new dance practices. Technology also plays a role in dance composition, blending of choreography and media. The bachelor's degree program should include technology courses such as graphics, sound design, dance video, and performance technologies.
Dance Critics/Writers critique and write about dance. They may write for special dance publications or more often daily publications such as newspapers and magazines. Most critics have studied dance or may be a former professional dancer. Writing skills and a sound knowledge of dance are important. Composition and creative writing courses should be included in the B.A. program.
Education Requirements
A bachelor's degree is sufficient for many entry-level positions, but for entry into an area of specialization, certifications or an advanced degree may be required. Many dance careers do not require a specific major but rather a wide range of demonstrated skills and accomplishments. Both the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and the Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) degrees prepare students for careers as dancers and choreographers. The B.A. degree is a general program that combines a broad experience in the liberal arts with a specialization in dance. It can also prepare students for careers in teaching and other related careers by adding a minor or courses in areas specific to the career choice. The B.F.A. degree in dance is more specialized and is designed for students who want to become professional dancers.
Related Work Experiences
Gaining related work experiences is an important step in preparing for your future. These early experiences will help you to understand dance and to make an informed decision about your choices for a major or minor when you go to college. Participating and volunteering with your high school dance group or private dance studio, volunteering with junior high school or elementary school or community dance programs and attending dance clinics and workshops is recommended.
Career Opportunities
The demand for teachers is high, particularly as dance is enjoying a revival as a form of recreation. Dance is now included as part of Physical Education within the National Curriculum. This may lead to an increased demand for dance teachers in state schools. The dance teacher may be employed on any level N-12. The number of aspiring performers exceeds the number of professional opportunities.

Detail:In the Three-Step Interview, students in each group take part in three separate discussions, or interviews.
To establish this strategy:
- Divide into teams of four, numbering the members from 1 to 4.
- Introduce a discussion topic such as "Should students have to wear a school uniform?"
- The three steps then are introduced, with perhaps 2-3 minutes being allocated to each step. The steps are:
Step 1: Nos. 1 and 2 interview each other. Nos. 3 and 4 interview each other.
Step 2: Nos. 1 and 3 interview each other. Nos. 2 and 4 interview each other.
Step 3: The 4 members then discuss the topic, and attempt to reach a consensus.
Team members should be asked to take notes while listening to the viewpoints of their 'partner' at the time. They then can refer to these notes during Step 3. A variety of interview techniques, such as the Who / What / When / Where / Why / How questions, can be incorporated into this strategy.
Extra students (eg a fourth team member) can be asked to share a number within a group. For example, if they share the '2' role, they both will have to interview the other person eg the '3', when they are required to do so.
Instead of asking for a full group discussion in Step 3, merely create a third interview ie
- Nos. 1 and 4 interview each other
- Nos. 2 and 3 interview each other
In this way, each person will have interacted individually with all other team members.
