Also catch Saturday's day one interviews and photos.
Joe Kelly
Kelly sees himself as the most competitive player on the roster. He had a special place in his heart for Kyle Lohse, who took Kelly under his wing. Kelly wants to master Lohse's skill of mixing up his favorite pitch, his changeup, with his curve and slider before he loses his fastball velocity.
Shelby Miller
In a very candid interview, the organization's top pitching prospect admits he tried to develop a "beach body" last offseason, coming into camp at just 204 pounds. This winter, Miller has a contest with Wainwright to make their respective weight targets. Miller is now at 223 with a goal to come to camp stronger. He also discussed how he shared his positives and negatives after each Triple-A start with Adam Wainwright last season as he worked to right his game.
Allen Craig
The first baseman seems relaxed and confident, well aware that 2013 will be his first season as a major leaguer in which he comes into camp healthy and assured of playing everyday. Not surprisingly, Craig likes hitting cleanup.
Jon Jay
The centerfielder is clearly ready for the season to come, but says his only focus is staying healthy and helping his team win.
Jordan Swagerty
The right-hander, who missed all of 2012 after Tommy John surgery, was checked out by the Cardinals medical staff prior to meeting with us on Sunday morning. He has thrown two 60-pitch.
Pete Kozma
Kozma says he has high expectations coming into the season to play second, short or wherever needed. He noted his success came after he had one good game and it took off from there. He takes special pride driving in runners.
Edward Mujica
When the right-hander was brought to St. Louis, his confidence was set when Mike Matheny told him to be ready to pitch in the sixth and seventh innings. Mujica is very pleased his former teammate, lefty Randy Choate, has been signed by the Cardinals.
Tony La Russa
The former manager shared his reminiscences of Stan Musial, noting that he and Red Schoendienst together made "the greatest room of all time."
Trevor Rosenthal
The hard-throwing right-hander seems to be on top of the world, despite missing MLB orientation due to the flu. Working out daily at Busch Stadium with Chris Carpenter, almost like a 9-to-5 job, he says, means he will be ready for the season. Teammate Jake Westbrook is letting Rosenthal and his wife live in his St. Louis house over the winter.
Seth Maness
The Springfield starter and organization's minor league Pitcher of the Year had just returned from the Caravan, but really had no idea what was awaiting him in St. Louis and the Winter Warm-Up. Maness considers himself a Greg Maddux-type of pitcher, using smoke and mirrors.
Bill DeWitt Jr.
The principal owner shared his many years of reminiscences of Stan Musial, focusing on his benevolence. "We're not the same Cardinals without Stan," said DeWitt. Looking ahead, the owner acknowledged a potential depth problem in the middle infield and noted the team could spend money. Further, he said there will be a payroll increase in the next two years.
Jake Westbrook
Unlike several other players, the right-hander found "peace of mind" by coming to terms with the Cardinals on a two-year extension before last season ended. Westbrook is fine if he is considered the forgotten man of the rotation. He is speaking to Kyle Lohse regularly and is surprised his ex-teammate is still unsigned.
Mitchell Boggs
We saw a very confident, but not cocky Boggs. He said he expects to be great and follow up on his 2012. Boggs asked Mike Matheny before committing to Team USA for the World Baseball Classic and received enthusiastic support.

Manning Match-up Week One - September 5
Monday, August 31, 2009
The first Manning Award Match-up for 2009 features Oregon's Jeremiah Masoli and Boise State's Kellen Moore. Masoli, a junior, takes his Ducks into Broncos territory to take on Moore in a WAC - Pac 10 showdown. Last year, Masoli completed 136-of-239 passes for 1,744 yards with 14 touchdowns and only five interceptions. He also rushed 127 times for 718 yards and 10 touchdowns as Oregon finished the season at 9-3. However, his Ducks lost their season-opener to Boise in 2008 when Masoli was knocked out of the game early with a concussion.
Moore, a sophomore, finished last season with 25 touchdowns, completing 281-of-405 passes for 3,486 yards. He had 10 interceptions and a completion percentage of 69.4 as Boise State finished the season 12-0. Both quarterbacks will be looking to lead their teams to season-opening wins as they begin their bid for the 2009 Manning Award.
Other Week 1 Manning Match-Ups
Thursday, September 3, 2009
Saturday, September 5, 2009
The Manning Award was created by the Allstate Sugar Bowl in honor of the college football accomplishments of Archie, Peyton and Eli Manning. It is the only quarterback award that takes into consideration the candidates' bowl performances.

Moore, Christopher. Practical Demonkeeping
Former seminary student Travis O'Hearn inadvertantly unleashed a demon straight from Hell when he stumbled across an ancient invocation hidden instead a set of candlesticks. He's not actually a fan of being in control of an extremely powerful demon, and has spent most of the last 70 years trying to get Catch to stop eating people—or at least to only eat criminals and other nasties. But now Travis—who still looks 20-something thanks to the demon Catch's graces—is closing in on a solution to his problem in the small town of Pine Cove, California. He lost the candlesticks all those decades previously and has come to believe that the second candlestick contained the invocation to send Catch back to Hell. And he's finally located the woman who took the candlesticks from him, now a grandmother in her 90s, living in Pine Cove. Now Travis, along with a motley crew of Pine Cove's losers, eccentrics, and petty criminals—along with one aeons-old King of the Djinn—have one last chance to get rid of the demon once and for all, before Catch can break free of Travis's control and destroy the world.
Funny, irreverant, clever, and fast-paced, Moore's first novel already displays his trademark wit. Those who enjoy Practical Demonkeeping won't want to miss the other Pine Cove novels, The Stupidest Angel and The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove.

Discussion in 'Off-topic Zone' started by Cajuncowboy, Jan 7, 2013.
so gomer pyle had kids, i see.
I think the kid is autistic. As the father of an autistic child I can see the traits. But that doesn't change the fact this is funny as heck. My son has done some of the funniest things that is so out of the blue you cannot help but laugh.
ugh, now i feel bad. my sister works with autistic children but i'm not really aware of all the traits.
it did have me chuckle a few times, tbh.
Holy lava lamp
Nah, don't. It wasn't malice.
But yeah, it was funny.
Shango is desperately trying to contact this guy as we speak.
Hoping, despite his location, he's a Cowboys fan...and that he'll agree to do 4-6 guest YouTube appearances. ESPECIALLY after disappointing Romo performances.
Those teeth aren't real are they? Is this an actor?
lol. What a helpful kid.
He has only the best intentions, .. good heart.
That was a blast. Loved It.
I would like to see if he could get an echo effect for his program as I think he could have a future doing the advertisements for Truck Pulls. I could just hear him yelling out SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY.
Also think it would be fun to have this kids volume and enthusiasm as the voice for a car navigation program. Could you imagine a loud voice yelling out...GO RIGHT GO RIGHT GO RIGHT...ORDER YOUR PIZZA.
Hahaha he is is from Nova Scotia. That's where I'm from. Sydney is in Cape Breaton though, they all have that accent. A lot like Newfoundlanders, but you guess probably know what they are like either.
"Storm coming January eight."
Dumbest post I've read today. :clap2:

Re: In your opinion: Who is the most overrated Raven?
Flacco is by fans certainly. Birk is by the media and(analyists). Boldin is just by name.

Re: In your opinion: Who is the most overrated Raven?
I think the problem with rating Flacco is we really don't know his full potential in Cam's offense. Any QB in his system is going to be hamstrung. So honestly I cannot say whether he is overrated or underrated. Conversely, any RB in Cam's system is going to be big time highlighted, so naturally overvalued as HoustonRaven correctly says.
I will say certain aspects of individual players games are underrated or overrated. I'd say that Ray Rice as a runner is slightly overrated... lack of breakaway speed, doesnt maximum the gain when little yardage is available, and is not great in short yardage situ-s. Conversely, his contribution in the pass-game is underrated. He is a dynamic weapon that just isn't praised enough.
Flacco's accuracy is underrated. He is extremely accurate. I'd say his grasp of knowing what the defense is doing each play is overrated. He needs to improve this.
Other Overrated/Underrated Aspects of Individuals...
Ray's value in pass coverage.. Way overrated... Honestly should be off the field.
Boldin's ability to separate from DB -- Overrated
LWebb's coverage skills --- Underrated
Ngata's ability to beat doubleteam blocking --- Way underrated
Sam Koch pinning teams inside the 10 --- Underrated (although I will say 2010, he was AMAZING at it... 2011 he wasn't as adept)
Suggs passrushing prowess -- Slightly Overrated -- He is really good but not in the class of a Ware/Freeney/Allen/Cole at that specific skillset. Still think he feasts on weaker OTs and gets his Sacks numbers during those games (+ Pitt games when BigBen holds the ball too long) but does get shutdown by the best OTs in the league. (Look I'm not commenting on Suggs as the complete package b/c I think he is the best DE/Hybrid OLB against the run in the NFL)
Re: In your opinion: Who is the most overrated Raven?
How about the whole offensive line?
The media and people outside our fan base (especially the Steeler fans) seem to have a notion that our offensive line is a top ten unit in the league. This was the case from 08 to 09, but since then our offensive line has been poor to average. We have had some overrated players on our line, and it has not helped the development of Joe Flacco or even Ray Rice lately. 2010 we where perhaps one of the worst units in the league, in 2011 we where better but nothing special.

Re: In your opinion: Who is the most overrated Raven?
The most overrated Raven is the next guy the Ravens sign off the street. Half the posters here will talk the guy up like he's the next great find and is going to be the key to the offense or defense this year - maybe even a Pro Bowler.
Then the guy will sit the bench or be waived.

Re: In your opinion: Who is the most overrated Raven?
There are a few different meanings of "overrated" being thrown around in here.
First, there's the "overrated" that comes with being a superstar on the downslope of your career. You can argue that Matt Birk, Ray Lewis, and Ed Reed all show signs of this. They are not the players they once were, but I hardly think that's worth calling them overrated... "declined" would be a better term. Every one of them is worth their starting position... if not necessarily the superstar status they've retained through their slow descent.
Second, there's the "overrated" that comes with being known to be great, but when there's still a question of just how great. Ray Rice is a phenomenal player. He gets a lot of flak on here for being called elite when it's a measure of his overall game and not of one defining skill. He's a total package... not the fastest runner or the strongest or the smartest or the best receiver or the best blocker but so good at all of those things that he's better as a whole than everyone else (or most everyone else) in the league. He's not overrated unless you insist he's the very best and you wouldn't take an Adrian Peterson or Arian Foster over him under any circumstances.
Third, there's the "overrated" that is most accurate: being generally credited for being better than you are or EVER were. That's Michael Oher. Oher is not a bad player and we're a better team with him on the field... at right tackle, blocking the second-best pass rusher and being a mauler in the running game. He's hyped up as some awesome LT prototype, but he's really not. He certainly shouldn't be receiving Pro Bowl consideration. He's easily the right answer to this question.
Pollard, Ellerbe, and McClain are not well-known enough to be overrated by anyone other than hardcore Raven fan optimists.
Anquan Boldin could be seen as overrated, but he could more accurately be seen as misused, or perhaps just not being allowed to live up to his full potential. More on that in a moment.
Joe Flacco is not overrated. Very much the opposite. First, there's the four consecutive seasons with playoff wins. That doesn't happen by chance and it sure as hell doesn't happen by virtue of your supporting cast alone, or Kyle Boller would still be quarterbacking here after taking us to multiple Super Bowls. Second, there's the fact that he's done that in his first four seasons, during his growing process. We underrate him because he started off so good that we expected him to become a premium QB soon after, and the weight of our expectations is simply too much. He's not the best quarterback in the league, probably not in the top five... but he's good enough to win with our team and to win a Super Bowl. He came within one drop of us being there this past year. We might get there this year... or we might not. Who knows? But we won't go into a tailspin and fall to 6-10 because of him. Not even without Suggs... not unless a lot more people get hurt or begin to suck.
Joe Flacco is underrated because people see the wins, they see his stats, and they assume that it must not have anything to do with him. Most QBs with those stats are mediocre players on mediocre or bad teams. Joe Flacco has those stats because those are the stats he needs to win. Would you rather see him be Matt Stafford, needing 5000 yards to get a team to 10-6? When we have a lead in the second half, we slow things down, grind out the game, go home with the W. We don't put it up in the air for Joe to get another 100 yards to satisfy his critics. Yeah, sometimes this bites us in the ass... but Joe doesn't call the plays and he certainly isn't given the authority for a wholesale strategic change when he feels the game's momentum turning. And he's had a few bad games along the way, not come through in situations where we needed him to author a comeback or just make something, anything happen to avoid squandering a strong defensive outing. But all that doesn't add up to him being overrated.
Joe Flacco can throw for 4500 yards this season if he has to... but that would mean that our defense is letting up 30+ points a game and we're having to outrace every opposing offense. No one here wants to see that. I just know that if Flacco had a Calvin Johnson or an Andre Johnson or a Roddy White like the other QBs in his perceived tier, we wouldn't be having this same conversation. Anquan Boldin was always excellent... as a #2 receiver. Torrey Smith has breakout potential as a DeSean Jackson or Mike Wallace deep threat, but he's not going to be the complete package. If we're ever able to find that guy for Flacco... watch out.

NEW NCRS Membership USA Residents, USA and Territories
By: Rob MusquetierBecoming a NCRS member is one of the smartest things I did during the last 20 years. The benefits of being a NCRS member outweighs the costs of the annual membership fees easily. They offer a fantastic magazine, called the Restorer containing useful hints and tips on restoration challenges, car finds and stories on the Regional and National meets. The access to their Technical Discussion Board (forum) offers a huge archive of Corvette restoration related topics and the expertise of the members is priceless! This all combined with their excellent events makes being a member essential for every Corvette enthusiast!

This article, Samurai Bridge, is canon and uses Creative Commons licensed content from our mother site, Narutopedia's Samurai Bridge article.
The list of authors can be seen in the page history there.
This unnamed bridge is located in the Land of Iron. It is built out of blue stones and features a large gate at one end, somewhat resembling a torii, emblazoned with the kanji for samurai (侍; ; ; ). On top of the gate is a large, stone statue of a sheathed sword with weights hanging on both ends.
After having fled from the Five Kage Summit, Danzō Shimura is confronted by Tobi on this bridge. After capturing Fū and Torune, Danzō's escorts, Tobi brings out Sasuke Uchiha to fight Danzō. Danzō was later to be defeated by Sasuke on this bridge after an intense battle. The bridge suffered massive damage from the battle but a large gap in the centre from Danzō's Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique, which is the largest sign a battle even occurred there at all. After Sasuke's battle with Danzō, a battle between Team Kakashi and Sasuke broke out, in the end interrupted by Tobi who left with Sasuke.
Trivia Edit
- In the anime, the bridge was depicted as being grey in colour.

Im seeking the best platform to build an ecommerce site that is based around selling photos. My main criteria is watermarking support and a secure file system so that people can url hack and down load the original before buying.
I have tried a few. I was going to build it on a wordpress site, using wp-ecommerce or woocommerce ( what we currently are testing ). Its great I can do everything but handle the watermarking system. The wp-ecom plugin was interesting in the it had an amazon cloud plugin which might be more suited for storing the massive # of 6mb photos we are going to upload as time goes on.
any suggestions as to some options either to move forward from where we are or try something else?
I suggest you to use oscommerce for your needs. Its really easy to customize and provide you a search engine friendly website.
most important factors I am seeing is how it handles protecting the uploaded files and if it can handle product creation from just one upload. In other words, you upload the image you want to sell, it watermarks all displayed items and offers it to the user in a variety of formats. in my case, I want to offer a digital download and also physically delivered products. we are partnering with a local print shop to fulfill print orders.
still havent found the perfect solution, so any feedback is welcome.
I suggest you vplanetcommerce ecommerce platform.
Not sure what that vplanet system costs, it looked expensive although I have no idea what currency it was priced in. I want to be able to choose my host. In working with the cart I mentioned (woocommerce) and still reviewing many more as we have not yet launched the site. I went looking for stores similar to what I want to build here - stores powered by oscommerce but didnt quite find what I was looking for yet. I went to some of the music ones but wasnt finding much I liked. The categories of sites I am interested in would be print related, something similar to some of the more popular art sites.
I am realizing that product import is really a massively important aspect. Potentially every day, we might post 200-500 photos. We have come up with a few workflows, such as giving each photo a unique name. I would like to then assign the sku as the same. Either way, the import process needs to support image import. I am going to keep looking, as I havent quite found my solution there yet. I have a great single image workflow but it kind of pales in comparison to the scale we want to achieve.
We want to sell our photos as framed prints and also offer the same item as a digital download. So far, its been hard to base that off a single "product". Right now I could do this, but I would have to configure 2 different products: One for download, one with the configurable options for buying as a frame.
What platform do you use right now?
There are two main ones that I know of: www.picturespro.com and www.photographyorders.com (full disclosure, I own Photography Orders)
Thanks for posting some suggestions. I am going to take a closer look at them. Looks like they are geared around what I want to do, although I am not sure if there is support to add in ordering of prints and other physical delivery products.
Both pieces of software I linked to will allow you to sell prints as well
Nice. Now we are getting somewhere! I had almost given up on this thread. I will take a much closer look and see where it goes. Thank you for posting.
No worries. If you want further help, PM me what you want to achieve and I'll take a look at it for you
hi everyone, i have the same problem...for this guy here, krainyc.com/kids.aspx that is prettty much under construction, but i have to prepare with the same features, let people buy downloads, and send the physical printed pics that they bought...i´m worried, so much things to implement and no point to start with... and all this in .net c#has anyone a knife???? i will need it soon , any suggest highly apreciate! good luck

From something as vascular diabetes? Heart disease? Are you in the middle of life or are you 20? Has someone taken your blood pressure at home if you fail a doctors office, where you may be nervous, are relaxed? It is a thing called white coat hypertension (high blood pressure last resort) White Coat Hypertension is high blood pressure in the docs office. Because you would be amazed nervf6s.Sie, such as weight loss can affect high blood pressure. (If you do not have an underlying medical condition) Im sorry I do not know any natural remedies for you to know.

Od: gość Data: 2013-07-27 12:24:37Hi Ann - and all. As a reporter cornvieg Oklahoma, this story has oddly begun to disappear. Normally, this sort of story would attract more attention - and alarm. Yet, the information on this is very minimal. Up the road from My-AM-uh is Springfield, Mo., now home of mind-control subject Jared Lee Loughner. And between here (OKC) and Miami, Ok. is the town of Arcadia, Okla. home of the famous Route 66 red Round Barn.
Od: gość Data: 2013-07-27 11:10:31When it comes to the synchromystic tomoonpy -- like with Arcadia -- my instinct tells me they got their place names originally due to secret societies operating in a specific area, and that these societies named those places. This includes all the planetary place names in Florida also. My feeling is these places are strongholds of these hidden societies, inter-generational kind of thing. Stands to reason they would be, if they originally settled in an area and were dominant enough to name that area. And their descendents would still be living there, with the network of a given society still intact. Where in the New Age community they believe certain places on earth are centers of earth power. I wonder if these secret societies chose their towns and cities on a similar criteria (earth grid power currents), or create an artificial power area of their own simply by their being there and naming the place with a synchromystic name? I really wish when I was younger that I would have thought to take a trip along Route 66.

James Brady's Death Ruled a Homicide
(NEWSER) – A Virginia medical examiner ruled today that the death of James Brady, Ronald Reagan's former press secretary, was actually a homicide, NBC Washington reports. Brady was severely wounded with a bullet to the head when John Hinckley tried to assassinate Reagan outside the Washington Hilton Hotel in 1981. The injury left Brady partly paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair with poor speech. Now, according to an autopsy, his death a few days ago was caused by complications from Hinkley's bullet.

Band of Outsiders Resort 2013
From a recent James Franco–narrated documentary about the career of Charles and Ray Eames, to the white-carpeted sunken living room in Don Draper's new apartment on Mad Men, it seems as though the cult of mid-century modern design has been having something of a moment over the last few months.
In fact, the just-closed Los Angeles County Museum of Art exhibition "California Design"—a chronicle of furniture, metalwork, and textiles from between 1930 and 1965, inspired by legendary architect and California adoptee Greta Magnusson Grossman—is the motivation for Scott Sternberg's latest resort collection. That, and the fact L.A.-based Sternberg just moved into a new house, which he says was built in 1936 by a contemporary of the era, although "not one that you would know."
Much like "California Design," Sternberg's aim was to look back at the thirties and forties through what he calls a "Californian lens." As a result, Band of Outsiders staples, such as a bandage wrap skirt and an already retro-inspired A-line peacoat, were reworked in a thick canvas that resembled classic Danish furniture upholstery but, in an attempt to play with the standard maritime references that resort is synonymous with, were finished with a frayed rope detailing. "We wanted to include nautical references, but also try and make them a little obtuse," Sternberg added.
Other examples of these seafaring twists could be found in the sailboat print (originally inspired by a toy printing block, but given a Bauhaus modification by Sternberg and his team), that appeared on a cream wool sweater and a signature silk blouse. Also a new seersucker blazer and skirt ensemble, which came finished in leather, was easily the most evocative of modernist furniture materials.
It all goes to show that although the tomboyish elements that come to mind when we think of Band of Outsiders are still there, when it comes to the sixties playboy archetype that Sternberg has long been channeling, it turns out he is now more interested in what's in his living room than what's in his wardrobe.

Cocky's Reading Express heading to the Outback
By Megan Sexton, email@example.com, 803-777-1421
Tampa, get ready to read.
Cocky's Reading Express will be rolling into Florida for the Outback Bowl, with University of South Carolina student volunteers, staff members and Cocky ready to distribute 1,000 free books to children around the city.
The bus, which features a larger-than-life graphic of the USC mascot, will be part of the Outback Bowl Parade through Ybor City on New Year's Eve. Cocky and student volunteers, armed with bags of books for young readers, will march alongside.
"Instead of candy or beads, we'll be handing books to children along the parade route and afterward at the pep rally," said Kim Jeffcoat, director of Cocky's Reading Express, the popular literacy program that provides quality books to children, along with visits from USC student volunteers and the Carolina mascot. The nation's first college mascot program of its kind has given out more than 50,000 free books since it was launched by USC's Student Government in 2005.
The trip allows Cocky's Reading Express to spread the word about the importance of reading and showcase the student-led initiative that combats illiteracy. The bus, made possible this year by a gift from BP, also offers an example of what strong partnerships can mean for a program, Jeffcoat said.
"We want people to see USC as having a great athletic team, but also to see what we are doing to help the community," Jeffcoat said. "And we want to improve our host town a little. By putting books in their community, it's a thank you for having us and allows us to leave the place a little better."
The eight students who will accompany Cocky on the bus were chosen because of their commitment to the program. These students spent 688 hours this year traveling to schools around South Carolina, sharing the gifts of books and literacy with children. Throughout the year, Cocky's Reading Express participants volunteered 2,113 hours of their time.
After the Gamecocks take on Michigan in the Outback Bowl Jan. 1, Cocky will resume his literacy duties on Jan. 2, visiting the Robert W. Saunders Sr. Public Library in Tampa where he will donate 500 books to be distributed to area children.
"When we leave, we want the last glimpse that Tampa has of the Gamecocks to be the 500 books we've donated to the library," Jeffcoat said.

Edwards is out and Santiago returns to the UFC to face Gunnar Nelson in London.
Edwards is out and Santiago returns to the UFC to face Gunnar Nelson in London.
Good fight!! Santiago is legit so it'll be interesting to see two black BJJ specialists go at it
much better fight! justin edwards would have got eaten alive. Big test for gunnar, but no doubt he'll do the biz
what a brilliant replacement massive test to see where Gunnar is at
Much tougher fight for Nelson.
Everytime I think of Santiago I think of Khalidov knocking him out from the bottom, lets see how he does in the UFC at welterweight this time after a couple of bad runs at middleweight.
Anyway......war Gunnar!
Santiago is perhaps the most exceptional, yet beatable guy out there. This is a great fight for Gunnar. The world is about to see what this insanely talented young man is made of.
Fighting, writing and mood lighting.
one of the rare instances where the replacement fighter makes the fight better than the original opponent.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
Santiago has never been tapped, big scalp for Gunnar if he can take it.

If you like Motown music, you may be familiar with Berry Gordy, founder of Motown Records and genius behind the "Motown Sound" that swept the nation and world in the 1960s. But have you heard of Esther Gordy Edwards, Berry Gordy's sister? Edwards started a co-op to provide money to family members in times of need and, in 1959, Gordy approached his family needing an $800 loan to start a record label. Gordy's family members all agreed, except Edwards who questioned whether her brother could successfully run a business after a series of taking and leaving numerous jobs. She eventually decided to loan Gordy the money, which he put toward what would become Motown Records. Gordy later stated that his sister's reluctance to lend him the money made him decide that he wanted her, out of their seven other siblings, to run the business side of the company.

When people tell me to just turn my brain off and enjoy a movie, I wish that it were so easy. I've been trained to overthink films as I watch them. I have two degrees in the study of cinema. I can't ignore what I know or how I've been wired to always analyze images I'm seeing on screen as they're cut together any more than a mechanic can stare at a puttering motor and pretend not to know how to fix it.

To help convey the "visceral realism" of Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk," the director needed an intense soundscape for the legendary evacuation of more than 300,000 British and Allied troops under German bombardment.

Two days after wrapping on the $65 million dollar budget film Pete's Dragon, David Lowery headed home to Texas to make a small film (literally, the aspect ratio is 1.37:1) with a group of friends called A Ghost Story. The budget? $100,000. In itself, the budget is a good marker of how different the films are. And yet in both films, Lowery uses visual effects in a very calculated and affecting way, two qualities that are often lacking in effects-heavy films nowadays. Indeed, many an article has been written about the CGI overkill in Hollywood franchises. In his article for Variety on The Age of Ultron, Brian Lowry argues that "the ability to mount enormous battles featuring multiple super-powered characters, however, has become its own trap. And while the results can be visually astounding, the movies regularly feel as lifeless and mechanized as the technology responsible for bringing those visions to fruition."

Ask the master gardeners
Q: I had such poor success with my vegetable garden this past year I'm about to quit. What can I do? I so love the taste of homegrown produce and I love to garden.
— Karen Cheeks-Lomax, Mount Vernon
A: If you are looking for a better way to grow your vegetables, consider installing a raised bed. The advantages far outweigh the initial investment of time and money.
This is a great project to do now since you've put your garden to bed and have fewer garden chores to do. It also allows the soil to settle before spring.
Raised beds are usually easier to maintain (less bending and kneeling). They promote better plant health: walking in your garden compacts the soil; soil compaction can cause problems with drainage and oxygen available to the roots; it's harder to weed compacted soil.
If you build a bed big enough to be accessed from both sides, you never have to set foot in it. Raised beds can be filled with high-quality soil rather than what Mother Nature has given us.
It's easier to add compost or other organic matter. If you grow long-rooted plants like carrots, the beds are deeper and free of stones. Raised beds get more sun and air circulation. You can plant earlier because raised beds warm up before the ground in spring and they stay warmer later into fall.
To build it: Pick a sunny location and determine how big you want it. If the ground is not frozen, you can till the soil before building to allow extra room for the roots to grow.
If you have pests like moles or voles, you can line the bottom with hardware cloth or old screen material. Use a nontoxic material such as cinder blocks, bricks or pressure-treated wood. Do not use treated railroads ties because chemicals can leach into your garden.
You'll want the bed to be at least 12 to 16 inches deep. Make sure it's sturdy because it has to hold heavy soil. If using wood, be sure you brace the corners. There are companies that sell entire kits or just corner pieces that are easy to install and keep the corners plumb. This makes the job that much easier for you.
Add good-quality soil and plenty of compost. Don't use soil from your garden as it tends to be too heavy and doesn't drain well. Your raised bed should last for years and you can keep soil healthy by adding organic matter yearly. Good luck with your project!
— Sue Brennan, White Plains, master gardener with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Westchester

REDLANDS - Kylie Fitts is again one of Southern California's most eligible football recruits, this after deciding on Monday to de-committing from the University of Southern California.
Fitts was unavailable for comment.
He graduated early from Redlands East Valley and was just days away from beginning the orientation process when USC informed Fitts that they preferred he join the program in June, REV football coach Kurt Bruich said.
Bruich said Fitts played in Saturday's Army All American game and was told by USC representatives everything was going as planned.
But that changed on Monday.
"They called on Monday when he was buying things for his dorm room and said he couldn't come in early," Bruich said. "He had to come in at June."
Fitts then sat down with family and friends and decided to once again make himself available in the recruiting process.
"It happened that at that point he figured his loyalty to the school was not the same as the school's loyalty was to him," Bruich said.
Bruich added, "Rumors that USC dropped him, that just isn't the case. They just told him if he was going to come in, it had to be in June."
Suiting up in a USC uniform was a lifelong dream for Fitts, Bruich said.
"As long as he can remember he wanted to be a USC Trojan," Bruich said. "He worked hard to accomplish that goal. He did everything that he was supposed to do."
Bruich said Fitts was disappointed and felt betrayed.
"I told him he should not feel that way in the recruitment process," Bruich said. "He should feel beloved and the commitment from the school, not resentment and betrayal. Then he called coach (Lane) Kiffin and de-committed."
Fitts was heavily recruited before he committed to USC.
"He had so many (offers) that it is unbelievable," Bruich said.
Bruich added, "He is the best player we've ever coached. He is very dominant. He is loyal, humble and hardworking. That is what he is."

Im using crunch to feed straight into aircrack-ng using the following command
./.../crunch 1 8 | aircrack-ng -b (bssid) -w - ./bel*.cap
Which works just fine but will only test 8 char strings, i know the key is over this (cause its my own router!) so i tried the following cammand
./.../crunch 1 63 | aircrack-ng -b (bssid) -w - ./bel*.cap
Now what happens is it just hangs and says "reading packets, please wait" i have left it like this for an hour and it just does nothing at all.
Iv run just the crunch command and it works just fine going for a and adding up, so the problem must be with aircrack-ng somewhere, iv looked at the docs and there is nothing about altering the string lenght that aircrack-ng can receive (looks like it is only doing 8 char string letters) can anyone help or point me in the right direction please?
Many thanks Chris

Nearly two-thirds of the United States population is overweight. There are many ways to determine if a person is overweight, but experts believe that a person's body mass index (BMI) is the best way to assess an adult's weight in relation to their height.
A person with a high BMI may have a normal amount of body fat if they have a lot of muscle tissue. However, the risk of death and disease is increased for adults who are overweight and obese.
Work with your health care provider and dietitian to set realistic, safe daily calorie counts that help you lose weight while staying healthy. Remember that if you drop pounds slowly and steadily, you are more likely to keep them off. Your dietitian can teach you about:

Agile and Logical Data Warehousing Best Practices
The concept of data warehousing has been around for a long time, but the need for innovation in analytics has put greater emphasis on evolving the traditional concept of a data warehouse. With the advent of small footprint data warehouse in an appliance form factor, the functional use cases for a data warehouse has evolved and organizations are starting to augment their data warehouse strategy to align with a more agile and logical approach. What's the best way to leverage a data warehouse for your organization? How do you continue driving ROI out of your data warehouse investment? How do you refresh your approach even with existing data warehouses in place?
In this webinar, we'll discuss why an agile and logical data warehouse strategy makes sense and some of the functional use cases:
- Enterprise Data Warehouse
- Departmental data warehouse
- Hub and spoke
- Agile Data Warehousing (Testing and Development)
Our thought leaders understand the dynamics in today's analytics environment and can provide real world insight into a data warehouse strategy that makes the most sense for your organization.

9/11 Mother Demands Obama Try Terrorist Plotters In Civilian Court
March 31, 2010
In anticipation of a final announcement as to the trial venue for the 9/11 plotters, September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows is warning the president against "buckling to political pressure," calling the use of military tribunals the "wrong thing to do."
In a nearly four-minute long video, Donna Marsh O'Connor -- a Peaceful Tomorrows member who lost her pregnant daughter when the Twin Towers collapsed -- speaks both to the broad notion that America has a "historic commitment to justice" and, more narrowly, to the horse-trading politics that now surround terrorist trials. Reflecting disappointment with recent signals from the White House, O'Connor calls specifically for the president to reject a reported compromise proposal with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) in which the administration would drop plans for civilian trials in exchange for Republican support for the closure of Gitmo.
"As 9/11 families, we have suffered greatly and waited almost nine years to see justice done with our own eyes," O'Connor says. "We understand that you face political pressure to back down. We ask that you do not allow fear and prejudice to govern your decision as we are not afraid. We know our country is strong enough to hold on to our values in the face of terrorism."
The video follows other efforts from Peaceful Tomorrows to advocate for civilian trials for the 9/11 suspects.
Letter to President Obama Urging Trials in Civilian Courts for 9/11
On February 18, September 11th Families For Peaceful Tomorrows sent a letter to President Obama urging him to try the 9/11 defendants in civilian courts. The full text of the letter follows:
Dear President Obama,
It has been over three years since the American people issued their mandate. By electing Democrats to Congress, we demanded very clearly that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan end and that our tax dollars get allocated more reasonably.
It has been almost nine years since our foreign and domestic policies have been hijacked by the Bush administration, that our rule of law, our constitution, and our moral and ethical principles have been overturned and ignored.
You promised change.
We have seen no change.
On June 16th, 2009 several members of September 11th for Peaceful Tomorrows attended a meeting with Attorney General Eric Holder and the members of the two task forces established to close Guantanamo Bay to listen to the very precise plans to close this facility. We asked then very clearly, "Will you close Guantanamo Bay or will you study the possible closing?"
Attorney General Holder answered, "It will be closed."
It is important for you to know that there is now, has been since February of 2002, and will continue to be, a group of 9/11 family members who support your administration in any and all efforts to give America and the world the change you promised--a return to our American way of life, our rule of law and respect for and reliance upon our constitution. The change we want is a change back to reason.
We believe that Khalid Sheik Mohammed and the four detainees who will be tried with him must be tried in civilian courts. We believe that where in our country these trials are held is irrelevant, as long as they occur on our soil where the crimes were committed, where the people who deserve transparent government once again have it.
Our daughters, sons, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers, husbands and wives who worked in or rushed in to save others in the World Trade Center and died there, and those in the Pentagon, and those on the planes: passengers and pilots and crew members, all loved our country. In their names we ask that you honor and preserve our constitution and our rule of law.
You, Mr. President, must not be afraid. Don't disappoint us again. No matter the political blow back from those who want to protect their bad policies, we implore you, keep this promise to close the prison at Guantanamo Bay.

Constipation - what to ask your doctorWhat to ask your doctor about constipation
Constipation is when you are passing stools less often than you normally do. Your stool becomes hard and dry, and it is difficult to pass. You might feel bloated and have pain, or you might have to strain when you try to go.
Below are some questions you may want to ask your doctor or nurse to help you take care of your constipation.
How often should I go to the bathroom during the day? How long should I wait? What else can I do to "train" my body to have more regular bowel movements?
How should I change what I eat to help with my constipation?
- What foods will help make my stools less hard?
- How do I get more fiber in my diet?
- What foods can make my problem worse?
- How much fluid or liquids should I drink during the day?
Do any of the medicines, vitamins, herbs, or supplements I am taking cause constipation?
What products can I buy at the store to help with my constipation? What is the best way to take these?
- Which ones can I take every day?
- Which ones should I not take every day?
- Should I take psyllium fiber (Metamucil)?
- Can any of these items make my constipation worse?
If my constipation or hard stools started recently, does this mean I have a more serious medical problem?
When should I call the doctor?

Best Of :: Food & Drink
There is no more authentic Argentinean restaurant in Houston than Manena's, despite the presence of other empanada purveyors or churrascarias scattered about the city. To experience a culinary mini-vacation, simply set aside an afternoon to drive out to the west side, order some humita and jamón y queso empanadas to start, a few sandwiches de miga if you're in the mood for something light or a perfectly breaded milanesa if you're going whole hog. And remember to save plenty of room for dessert. Manena's pastry case is transporting: cañoncitos filled with indulgent caramel, flaky vigilantes rellenos filled with quince jam, and the best tiramisu anywhere in the city. You can even pick up yerba mate and other Argentinean specialties in the tiny pantry section to take home with you as souvenirs of your tiny trip.
One of a host of recent "gastropubs" to pop up around Houston, BRC is the only one that truly hits the nail on the head of this culinary trend. BRC — which, yes, stands for Big Red Cock — serves up not only a small but stunning menu of "pub" food (if a traditional pub were located in the Deep South) but has a rotating menu of craft and micro brews that often can't be found anywhere else in the city. With 28 taps and frequently tapped casks, you won't always find the same beer here twice, but you'll most definitely fall in love over and over again with the finds that Lance Fegen discovers and wags back to the bar. Grab a floppy, dog-eared copy of the leather-bound beer list and peruse the clever descriptions ("biscuity nose") if you aren't quite sure what you want. And don't be afraid to experiment: Most draft beers are only $6 or $7 and you can even get a highly affordable beer flight if you just can't settle on one.
Beware: Not all Alma Latina restaurants are created equal. But if you make it to the correct one — the location on Telephone Road in the Second Ward — your journey will be richly rewarded. Stay away from the breakfast tacos and instead focus on dishes like the hot, vividly flavored menudo or the hearty huevos rancheros. Both will either fuel you for a long day ahead or take the edge off that raging hangover and allow you to salvage what's left of your day, even if you didn't get up until noon. That's right: Alma Latina serves breakfast all day, although they charge a little extra after 10:30 a.m. But the free chips and queso you get with your breakfast more than make up for any convenience charges.
Marco Wiles's latest Italian eatery is linger-worthy. The darkened dining room and menu of small plates feel perfectly authentic, despite the fact that Westheimer in all of its local color is whizzing by outside. Poscol does many things right, but its risottos are the best of all, creamy and decadent without being heavy, simple to look at but complex at first bite. Both the valpolicella (made with red wine) and butternut squash (topped with fried chicken livers) will make you consider licking the plate.
After a lovely meal featuring some of Houston's best seafood, go ahead and indulge that aching sweet tooth with REEF's "No Minors" milk shake.This is not your grandfather's milk shake, nor is it fit for the children. Here, the age-old milk shake gets a kick in the pants, adding brandy and Kahlúa to its delicious ice cream base. Yowzah! It's basically the milk shake version of a Brandy Alexander: creamy and smooth — yet not so rich as to be considered sinful. Portions are large and hearty; we like to add an extra straw and share it 1950s-style.
One thing should be perfectly clear when ordering a dish of ceviche at Ocean's, the new restaurant that has taken over the old Bistro Vino space with panache: This is not the ceviche to which you are probably accustomed. The plates that come out at Ocean's are immense platters, artfully decorated with a few spare pieces of raw fish. The effect is more like sashimi than ceviche, but the taste is wholly Latin-influenced. The rasurado plate hums with the intensity of Serrano peppers mixed with chipotle sauce, the fiery flavors balanced by a creamy slice of avocado on top of each velvety piece of yellowtail tuna (which is the fish that Ocean's recommends with the platter). On an entirely different note, the Oriental plate — recommended with salmon — is elegantly seasoned with ginger, orange juice, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil. When's the last time you ate ceviche that comes with soy sauce?


text: I saw that British bookmakers are giving odds of 50/1 that Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian will have their babies the same day. Kim has already been robbed of a huge payday when Kanye West announced they were expecting before they could get paid by a tabloid for the story. Can you imagine if they did have their babies the same day? Kim would be swallowed up by a wave of royal baby covers and mugs and stories and she would have to wait weeks to be able to sell her photos to tabloids which by then would be numb with baby stories. She would get virtually no money which is why Kris Jenner is an idiot not to have accepted that alleged million dollar offer that came her way before. I still say the offer was made up because no one is paying that much money anymore except for royal baby photos. Unless Kim gets a two week cushion away from Kate's baby she is just not going to win the battle of publicity. It needs to be two weeks before Kate's baby. The thing is though she has no idea when that is going to be other than July so she can't do jack about it. I love it.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- A group of Ohio State University students opposed to sweatshop labor was ejected by the university's president from a trustees' meeting.
The Columbus Dispatch reported Saturday (http://bit.ly/RoJRzC ) that about a dozen students showed up at Friday's Board of Trustees meeting to object to an athletic apparel contract the university is considering with the merchandising arm of the Dallas Cowboys.
The newspaper reported that the students interrupted OSU President E. Gordon Gee (gee) to ask that the contract be dropped from consideration. They alleged the contract supports sweatshop labor.
The report said Gee told them he doesn't "negotiate in public" and demanded they leave.
Campus police escorted the students out.
