A spoof of a popular game Slender. I've developed this game for fun and the simple aim is to find all 8 currants without being caught by the Currant Man. Quick and simple to control and with only 1 level, you can play the game anywhere with access to a PC, no internet required. No minimum PC specs, this should work well on anything!
Liked Slender? This game may be of your liking too! A spoof that can be played on any computer, anywhere!

I saw preview from TV On Demand, and it looks good. I just hope it's better than "Friday The 13th" remake!
Robert Englund is and will always be the ONLY Freddy Krueger. This new one is gonna suck. It happens every time some idiot decides to do a remake, to try and cash in on an old cash cow. They end up ruining it!
I think it's gonna be especially stupid if they play up the "Politically Correct" angle of the story of F.K. being wrongly accused. What's next? A movie about Jason Voorhees exonerated of all wrong-doing because he wasn't given a ball when he was three??? I've had enough of this PC crap!
Just my two cents!

I can't believe how many people just write these movies off before even seeing them. I would wager at least half go into these movies WANTING to not like them.
Yeah, go to it if you are satisfied with remakes. As long as people are willing to shell out $10 to se a remake, the studios have no need to create some new movies!!
I did post the new figure on my site yesterday from NECA. If that is any clue as to Freddy's look I am disappointed.
Looking a the new look with the doll, I have I hope It don't look like that really.
He don't look burned he look like a zombie. Jackie could play it OK for this verison,
If the story is lame, The directing is lame and supporting cast sucks than they would made a big mistake. Freddy VS Jason most of lead supporting cast the kids where bad I think, Kathy Isabelle should have been Lori she would have made the role better I think. Bad Casting,Bad writting and Bad Director is the case for that one and not having Kane Hodder as Jason...dumbass move, But It still made Money because it was Freddy VS Jason. And everyones knows Robert Englund made Freddy an Icon. And that is what to me sold the movies, Tv show,evem Comics. I think Jackie could be a good villian but not Iconic like Robert.
Just my view on it, I'll still see it with hope. If they fu*k it up well as Derek Mears told RFR If it suck will still have the orignal.
See ya, BITCH!
Why are you disappointed? Looks like a real burn victim to me.
Here's the thing... these movies aren't exactly "remakes" ... they're either "reimaginings" or "reboots" of the series - taking an established character and putting a new twist on him. A remake would be more like the 1998 Psycho, which wasn't well received.
I don't mind a new direction for the Nightmare series... the franchise had become stale and a cliche of itself.... but people still WANT to see these icon characters in action. I just hope they don't try to mimic the original too much, this is where Rob Zombie's Halloween fell a bit short, in my opinion.

Freaky stuff here! Last night I watched this vid for the first time and the only time I paused it was at the date it will be released, and it's no stretch of the imagination to realize what time I found myself doing this...4:30! The added effect of MICHAEL BAY makes it even worse! I thought I was gonna die when I fell asleep!
Well, and being a child of the 1980's myself... I'm right here with you in hopes that the new movie will at least be good. Too many remakes aren't even "good!"

I recommend playing the obscure "good" ones first as the chances of building a viewer base increases. Fill the gaps is the key IMO. I don't watch too many LP's on YT except if its a special run like doing some crazy thing in the game or otherwise, or a Super Mario World hack playthrough. The only game I was looking for on YT that I couldn't find a 100% playthrough of was Vanishing Point for PS1 except a German one that didn't go all the way. My vote is for that one and I'll watch for sure if you happen to do that game despite not owning it. Also SMW hack videos all the way if you want a break from Playstation videos as I'm watching tons of those.
Another note is I don't like intro's of any sort and I find a lot of people on YT itself hate them as well. Outro's are fine.
I could tell based on the quality of the photo .

I will be periodically adding more games to my list as I upload, I recently started Dragon Quest 8 but my recording for the first hour has some problems with sound syncing, but after the first hours it is fine, so weird, but yeah I am trying to get a whole mix of games uploaded at the moment.
I will try to get hold of Vanishing Point to create a playthrough for it though, although not anytime soon :P

In the second of two anticipated rulings on the issue, Judge David C. Norton of the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina issued a decision striking down the National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB's or Board's) final rule (the Rule) requiring all employers subject to the Board's jurisdiction—the vast majority of employers doing business in the United States—to post a notice in the workplace informing employees of certain of their rights under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).
In his April 13 ruling in Chamber of Commerce v. NLRB, Judge Norton held that the Board exceeded its authority under the Administrative Procedures Act (the federal law that governs the way in which administrative agencies may propose and establish regulations) by promulgating the Rule and, therefore, the Rule was invalid in its entirety.
Morgan Lewis has been participating in the NLRB notice-posting litigation before Judge Norton on behalf of 36 members of Congress as amici curiae.
The NLRA gives employees the right to "form, join, or assist" unions, to bargain collectively with their employers, or to refrain from engaging in such activities. Although less than 7% of private sector employees are represented by unions, the NLRA's protections extend to nonunion employees as well as union-represented employees.
Under the Rule, which is scheduled to go into effect on April 30, 2012, affected employers must post a notice informing employees of their right, among other things, (1) to"[o]rganize a union"; (2) to "take action . . . to improve [their] working conditions by, among other means, raising work-related complaints directly with [their] employer or with a government, and seeking help from a union"; and (3) to "strike and picket." The required notice must be posted in the same place where other notices are posted. The Rule also requires that the notice be posted on an employer's intranet or Internet site if the employer customarily communicates with its employees by such means.
The Rule states that failure to post the notice could have three adverse effects: (1) it could be considered an unfair labor practice under Section 8(a)(1) of the NLRA; (2) failure to post the required notice could toll the six-month statute of limitations for filing unfair labor practices in other cases; and (3) the NLRB could use the failure to post the notice as evidence of an employer's unlawful motive in other unfair labor practice cases.
In a March 2 ruling on the same issue in National Association of Manufacturers v. NLRB, Judge Amy Jackson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued a decision upholding the Board's right to issue the Rule, but striking down two key enforcement mechanisms for failure to post the notice—making an employer's failure to post the notice an unfair labor practice and the tolling of the statute of limitations.[1]
Judge Norton's Decision
Judge Norton's opinion begins by explaining the two-step Chevron analysis that must be applied to determine whether an administrative agency has exceeded the rulemaking authority delegated to it by Congress.[2] Under Chevron step one, the court must determine whether Congress has directly spoken to the question at issue. If the intent of Congress is clear, then the analysis is at an end because both the court and the agency must defer to the intent of Congress. If, however, the statutory language is ambiguous, the court must proceed to Chevron step two and determine whether the agency's action is based on a permissible construction of the statute.
In applying Chevron step one, Judge Norton looked to (1) the plain language of Section 6 of the NLRA, which grants the Board the authority to promulgate rules "necessary to carry out" the rest of the statute; (2) the structure of the NLRA as a whole; (3) the legislative history of the NLRA; and (4) other relevant statutes. Based on his review of these sources, Judge Norton concluded that Congress had intended the Board to function "as a reactive agency" that takes action only when a member of the public files an unfair labor practice charge or a representation petition. Further, Judge Norton held that the fact that Congress had included explicit notice-posting requirements in numerous other statutes, while failing to include such a requirement in the NLRA or to add one as part of the multiple amendments that have been enacted over time, indicated that Congress did not intend to delegate the authority to require the posting of notices to the Board. Accordingly, Judge Norton held that, while the Board has the power to promulgate rules necessary to its function of deciding unfair labor practice charges and representation issues, it cannot create rules that "place . . . affirmative obligation[s] on employers prior to a charge or petition first being filed." Judge Norton ruled, therefore, that the Rule could not survive step one of the Chevron analysis and that the Board had exceeded its authority under the Administrative Procedures Act by promulgating the Rule.
The split created by the differing decisions in the South Carolina and D.C. litigation creates some uncertainty regarding the immediate future of the Rule. Judge Norton's decision squarely holds that the Rule is unlawful, but the Board may seek a stay pending an appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit that would allow the Board to enforce the Rule until the Fourth Circuit rules on the issue. Judge Jackson's ruling in the D.C. litigation has already been appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, and the plaintiffs in that case may renew a previously rejected attempt to block enforcement of the Rule pending that appeal. The Board has not yet commented on or taken any action with respect to the South Carolina ruling. However, there is a strong possibility that the Board will voluntarily delay implementation of the Rule until the appellate courts have ruled on the issue.
As noted above, Morgan Lewis has been participating in the NLRB notice-posting litigation before Judge Norton, representing 36 members of Congress, including John Kline, Chairman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, as amici curiae. Morgan Lewis also represented the same parties in the separate notice-posting lawsuit in the District of Columbia. Our amicus brief filed in the South Carolina litigation is available at http://op.bna.com/dlrcases.nsf/r?Open=ldue-8nnqa2; our amicus brief filed in the D.C. litigation is available at http://op.bna.com/dlrcases.nsf/r?Open=ldue-8nnq9e.

OS fingerprinting is the process of determining the operating system used by a host on a network.
Active fingerprinting
Active fingerprinting is the process of transmitting packets to a remote host and analysing corresponding replies.
Passive fingerprinting
Passive fingerprinting is the process of analysing packets from a host on a network. In this case, fingerprinter acts as a sniffer and doesn't put any traffic on a network.
Fingerprinting techniques
Almost all fingerprinting techniques are based on detecting difference in packets generated by different operating systems.
Common techniques are based on analysing:
- IP TTL values;
- IP ID values;
- TCP Window size;
- TCP Options (generally, in TCP SYN and SYN+ACK packets);
- DHCP requests;
- ICMP requests;
- HTTP packets (generally, User-Agent field).
Other techniques are based on analysing:
- Running services;
- Open port patterns.
Many passive fingerprinters are getting confused when analysing packets from a NAT device.

Passive fingerprinters:

Shared office. We all share on big office area, except for the director and the treasurer, who have private offices, and the few poor souls who have to make do with deskspace in an area that's separated from the public only by a long waist-high desk on three sides. But most of us have space in the main shared office, which also functions as the lunch room (complete with microwave), server room (but not the network closet; the Cisco router is in the supply closet, right above the refrigerator), and the storage area for incoming materials, among other things. In addition to my desk's being in a shared office, it has now also become a shared desk two days a week, but I dursn't complain about that, because the volunteer I'm sharing it with is doing inventory, which was formerly one of the most tedious aspects of my job, and this now frees me up to do more interesting things. "In adjectives, with the addition of inflectional endings, a changeable long vowel (Qamets or Tsere) in an open, propretonic syllable will reduce to Vocal Shewa. This type of change occurs when the open, pretonic syllable of the masculine singular adjective becomes propretonic with the addition of inflectional endings." — Pratico & Van Pelt, BBHG, p68 In reply to Shared office.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
I have spent a lot of time recently pondering the question, "What makes an organization a great one?" I think this question is essential as we continue on our path of economic recovery and aim to maintain America's status as the world's leader in innovation.
One of the most heralded business books of the past decade addressing this question is Jim Collins's Good to Great. In it, he examines what separates simply good or mediocre companies from the truly great ones. Collins has since also produced a monograph in which he addresses the similarities and differences between great businesses and other great organizations – be they for-profit or non-profit organizations.
Good to Great and the Social Sectors postulates that greatness is not a concept unique to business, but one that cuts across all disciplines. As someone who works in the non-profit sector running an economic development organization in Northeast Ohio, I found this concept worth exploring for both business and social sector leaders.
Collins says "we must reject the idea – well intentioned, but dead wrong – that the primary path to greatness in the social sectors is to become 'more like a business.'" Instead, he offers five universal principles that build the framework of greatness.
- Calibrating Success without Business Metrics
- Getting Things Done within a Diffuse Power Structure
- Getting the Right People on the Bus
- Rethinking the Economic Engine without a Profit Motive
- Building Momentum by Building the Brand
I would like to address the first two principles in this blog post.
In business, the metrics are relatively easy – and they're usually tied directly to outcomes that can be expressed as financial results. Non-profits, on the other hand, can't express outcomes in dollars and cents. In the social sectors, Collins says, money is an input, not a measure of greatness.
So, how does one define the greatness of a non-profit when financials are off the table? Collins puts forth that it's through outcomes relative to the organization's mission. Advances against diseases. Educating niche populations. Economic revitalization. The list is endless.
This is important for people who work in the non-profit and the public sectors. They need to know that they, too, can achieve greatness and make their organizations great.
My contention is the same holds true for entrepreneurs. Although the for-profit rules certainly apply for business entrepreneurs, they can face many of the same issues as non-profits – most notably the scarcity of financial backing and available resources. Therefore, start-ups can measure their degree of success by how much funding they can attract (through venture capital, angel investors, etc.) as well as the success of their mission.
While non-profits may strive toward revitalizing the economy, entrepreneurs may have the passion to build a better widget. Only when their passion leads to achieving that goal will they become profitable and subject to the metrics that hold for all businesses.
Start-ups, just like mature companies and non-profits, require strong leadership to achieve greatness. Collins talks about two kinds of leadership: executive and legislative.
The executive leadership model, according to Collins, is based on power. It's the all-powerful CEO who issues commands and wills things to happen. This is often the case in a traditional business, but this is a model that certainly doesn't work in the non-profit world and can be questioned among some companies and entrepreneurs as well.
Collins's legislative model of leadership holds that no one in a non-profit setting holds sufficient power to make unassailable decisions. The legislative leader, Collins says, relies on persuasion, political currency and shared interest.
In the entrepreneurial world, leaders must also use persuasion and political currency to attract funding, to motivate staff, and to convince an inherently suspicious marketplace to purchase their products. Their drive for success will produce the return on investment, the job security and the product benefits that are the shared interests of all interested parties.
"Being an effective leader not only means taking charge and making difficult decisions for your company. It also means having the insight to leverage your communication skills to get others on board with what you think is best for the organization," says Peter Broer, president and CEO of Lumitex, a designer and manufacturer of fiber optic, LCD and LED lighting applications based in Strongsville, Ohio.
I would like to hear what other leaders in the non-profit and entrepreneurial worlds think about these concepts. Please feel free to share your comments below, and stay tuned for my upcoming posts, one of which will address Collins's third principle of greatness – getting the right people on the bus.

Post Hysterectomy Diet
Post hysterectomy diet, also called a hysterectomy recovery diet or after-hysterectomy diet, is prescribed to women who have undergone a hysterectomy recently and are in the recovery period. Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus. A procedure mostly performed by a gynecologist or a surgeon in the presence of a gynecologist, it can be complete or partial. As hysterectomy is a major surgery, its recovery period can stretch up to about 8 months. During the recovery period, great care needs to be taken to ensure that there are no immediate or long term problems.
There are various reasons for performing a hysterectomy and during the recovery period, diet is one of the most important factors to be taken care of.
Main Features of a Post Hysterectomy Diet
A hysterectomy recovery diet is generally light, low in fat, carbohydrates and calorie levels and overall very healthy. Based on a patient's individual requirements, age, limitations, expected recovery time and other similar factors, doctors mostly tailor-make a diet plan. This diet plan not only keeps a person healthy during the recovery period but also promotes proper recovery post a major surgery. Although the plans are individual based, there are some common inclusions:
Milk and dairy products: Milk, rich in calcium and other nutrients, is one of the best known sources of energy and is a common part of almost all hysterectomy recovery diets. Milk products like cheese, tofu, cottage cheese, yoghurt, etc., also offer all goodness of milk and their consumption is greatly encouraged. It is, however, important to note the toned milk and home-made and low-fat milk products are preferred over packaged, full-fat products.
Tea: With its fat fighting and healing properties, tea is the preferred beverage during the recovery period post a hysterectomy. Consumption of green and herbal teas is encouraged and research has shown that regular drinking can speed-up the recovery.
Fruits and vegetables: Fruits and vegetables that are high low in carbohydrates and fats form an important part of the post hysterectomy diet routine. Canned and frozen products are not recommended. Fresh fruits and vegetables, preferably organic, are encouraged in raw form or in soups, salads, etc.
Post Hysterectomy: Foods to be Avoided
In a hysterectomy recovery diet, any food which puts pressure on the digestive system is advised against. Light, healthy and easy to digest food items are recommended as exercise is difficult during the recovery period and heavy foods will not only make a patient gain weight but also irritate the systems. Some preparations, like fried foods, can also prolong the process of recovery. Alcoholic beverages and cola drinks are also consumed in very controlled quantities, if at all.

Often, a report of high blood potassium isn't true hyperkalemia. Instead, it may be caused by the rupture of blood cells in the blood sample during or shortly after the blood draw. The ruptured cells leak their potassium into the sample. This falsely raises the amount of potassium in the blood sample, even though the potassium level in your body is actually normal. When this is suspected, a repeat blood sample is done.

Burger King, which has been fixture in Craig for more than 20 years, closed its doors on Thursday and all 12 employees have been left without a job, its district manager said.
"It was costs," Scott Mitchel said. "It couldn't make enough money."
Mitchel drove to Craig Thursday from Denver to oversee the closing of operations.
"I hope to be out sometime tomorrow," Mitchel said, but the skeleton crew does not have a specific deadline as to when it has to be out of the building.
He was told one day before Thursday that the restaurant would be closing down.
"This is the first time that (a Burger King has closed down) has happened since I started," said Mitchel, who has worked for Burger King for 25 years.
The current owner of the building that housed Burger King, located on Victory Way, is listed as Nor Kor Food Corp. by the Craig Chamber of Commerce.
"I am looking around to see what I can salvage," Mitchel said of what he is currently doing to pack up the restaurant.
Monty Bond, a labor and employment specialist for the Colorado Workforce, said, "Naturally we are always concerned with any business that closes down in Craig, but we are hopeful that another business will come into that spot."
The Colorado Workforce called and offered their services to the former employees of2the fast-food restaurant.
"We have a program which is called the Rapid Response Program," Bond said. "We have talked to some of the people and are helping them try to find another job and/or file for unemployment."
Bond hopes some of the employees will be able to find jobs in new businesses that are opening in the area, such as the Family Dollar
George Wooley, asset manager for Burger King's Colorado western region, could not be reached for comment.
"It was very sad," said Karen Worth, who managed Burger King for ten years, of the restaurant's closing.
Worth is no longer an employee of Burger King and now is the general manager of Wendy's.
"It was kind of like they took my baby," Worth said.
For the current local general manager, Alfredo Kubas, the restaurant closing down Thursday came as a surprise.
"I haven't sat down and talked to my wife yet," Kubas said of life after Burger King.
But he said he thinks Burger King is going to try to work with the employees as far as finding employment.
"(The closing of Burger King) will positively effect everyone else although it is unfortunate for them," said Brenda Elsbree, general manager of the Craig McDonald's, "because there is a limited amount of dollars in the Craig community."
Elsbree said McDonalds has not received any applications from former Burger King employees yet, even though they are hiring.

This is a great movie! It has some very funny scenes and is one of the best Leprechaun movies out there. The Leprechaun seems much more evil in this one and no longer rhymes but he is still the reason to watch the movie. The deaths, although without the usual amount of gore, are still quite good. This movie will most probably spawn another sequel which will have to live up to this ones expectations. If you want a great Horror/Comedy you have to look no further this installment in the Leprechaun franchise will not disappoint!
Leprechaun Back 2 Tha Hood
Written and Directed by: Steven Ayromlodi
Yep, everyone's favorite evil elf is back in the 6th installment in this
classic horror series.
Parts 4 and 5 are universally viewed as two of the worst movies of all time
(Despite them being two films I love, they are admittedly terrible) Steven
Ayromlodi was still able to convince someone to give him the money to make a
6th movie.
This time the Lep comes back to the hood in search of his gold once again.
This time it is discovered by some down and out friends in the ghetto. They
spend their fortunes and have fun...until the little Irish monster shows up
and starts killing off the people that took his gold.
Yeah, pretty cookie-cutter..but that's how the whole series is and you can't
expect much more. But you gotta give director Ayromlodi credit for pulling
out a couple of new turns, and making a solid entry into the
I still think 3 is my favorite of the series, but this is definitely an
improvement on 4 and 5 in all aspects. Sure, the acting is a bit cheesy at
times, and it lacks in the gore department and the kills are less creative,
but overall I was satisfied with this movie, and can only hope for a
Definitely only for fans of the series though.
The hairdresser Emily Woodrow (Tangi Miller) finds a fortune in golden
coins and she shares the amount with her close friends. However, the
owner is the evil Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) that returns from Hell to
get his treasure back, killing each member of the greedy group.
"Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood" is silly, but funny in some moments. The
problem is that the pothead and drug-dealer characters are non-likable
and extremely ambitious, with the exception of Emily and Lisa;
therefore the devilish Leprechaun becomes not as bad as he should be.
The scene with the leg of the policeman is hilarious. My vote is four.
Title (Brazil): "O Duende Perverso" ("The Wicked Leprechaun")
The evil Leprechaun is back to reclaim his gold but this time he's got
to resist the temptation of... smoking a bong?!? Leprechaun meets the
boyz in the hood and proves that he's got what it takes to be the
baddest mofo around. Lep is back to the hood and up to no good...
I'm not an avid Leprechaun fan. In fact, I've never paid much attention
to these movies until this year came around. I've seen Leprechaun 1, 2,
3 and now 6 (Back 2 Tha Hood) and I'd say that "Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha
Hood" would have to be the best of the series. I had seen some parts of
part 3 and about half of Leprechaun 4 a couple of years ago but I don't
think I'd seen enough to pass judgment.
What attracts me to this film the most is that it's so different from
the rest of the series. When I say this, I'm thinking of how Jason X
was to the rest of the Jason movies. I mean, the Leprechaun isn't used
to dealing with these smart-ass ghetto thugs. The jokes used in the
movie aren't very original and are either hit or miss. You either like
this kind of humor or just think that it's been done before and move
on. For me, it was a guilty pleasure.
None of the characters in this movie are likable except for the
Leprechaun, but if he wasn't likable, he wouldn't have gotten to this
many sequels, would he? For the most part, I was happy to see these
smart-asses get beaten up and impaled by bongs, stabbed with sharp
objects and all harmful acts that happened during the movie. Some of
the slow motion was well-placed and made the film evermore funny (i.e.
Lep's eye incident) but for the most part, it didn't suit the movie all
that well but didn't really harm it either..
The Leprechaun looked so much better in this film, he looks a lot
creepier than he used to. Every time I'd see a Leprechaun film, I'd
wonder if people actually got scared of him because he was always so
comical with his appearance and annoying rhymes. Luckily, I only
remember the Leprechaun blubbering out one rhyme in this movie which
was a welcomed change, instead of rolling my eyes at another lame
When it all comes down to it, this is an average horror film but a good
addition to the Leprechaun series. If you're bored and want some horror
fun, check out this film because you got about a 50/50 chance of
splitting your sides in laughter like I did or just staring blankly at
the screen. I say, give it a chance.
Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood
directed by
Steven Ayromlooi
After some very bad sequels, a Leprechaun film has been made which can
happily conclude the Irish monster's saga. It might have a reference to
the hood in the title, but hardly similar to the previous attempt. Here
they have created a worthy sequel. There may still be the problems with
some of the characters and their dialogue, as well as some obvious plot
holes, but Lep 6 actually worked on building up the characters, as well
as a back story for the Leprechaun. Speaking of Leprechaun, Davis also
manages to finish of his Leprechaun story, with one of his best Lep
This sequel is so much better than the others, for starters its much darker and the Leprechaun's costume is also much better in this movie. Gone are the stripy socks and bright red pants, instead we have a more 19th century dark, creepy looking Leprechaun. The humour is still there in this film, except that its not cringeworthy like it was in earlier outings and is actually funny. There are very few hokey special effects and the storyline is played out well. They have also brought back the four leaf clover to kill a leprechaun mythology from the first film. Will it win an Oscar? No, but it sure makes up for the last few sequels which completely ignored the fact its supposed to be in the horror genre and instead tried to be too much of a comedy. All the Leprechaun films are fun in their own way, but this one is far less hokey - there's hope for the series yet!
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
In this sixth outing, the evil Leprechaun terrorizes some poor kids in
a rough part of the hood when they stumble upon a box of gold coins in
a hidden cave! soon they go from poor, to fabulous & what's even better
than finding a pot of gold coins worth millions? A refill of gold coins
of course! since the empty box magically replaces the missing ones!
However as the kids soon discover, it's owned by an evil Leprechaun,
who will gladly kill them to get it back. LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD was
obviously the series top grosser, why? because LIONSGATE simply made
another one in the hood, although LIONSGATE failed to learn that
although LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD may have made them money in rental
sales, that doesn't mean it was a good movie, in fact, it was arguably
the worst film in the series, true none of the other LEPRECHAUN films
were works of art, but at least they were bad enough to be fun,
LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD was just bad. Part 6 is admittedly a much better
made movie in almost every way, but still not very good & it's obvious
that fans suckered in to see the fifth did not want a second helping of
the last films story, since the film is (at least at the time of this
review) the last film in the franchise. Parts 5 & 6 are best described
as BOYZ N' THE HOOD meets LEPRECHAUN. the direction by STEVEN
AYROMLOOI, the acting & look of the film is so much better, it looks
like LIONS GATE invested a bit more money than the last two films had
to play with. Unfortunately, the film also falls into the same trap
LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD fell into. The characters are the same cookie
cutter stereotype characters we seen in the previous film & other urban
horror films & non horror films set in the hood, the constant dropping
of the F bomb & other foul language, tough as nails, drug dealers, the
rap music, the good, clean cut kids trying to make a difference in
their neighbourhood etc. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that
there are no places in the world like this, because there's no doubt in
my mind that their are, it's just that for once it would be nice to see
different kinds of characters in these types of movies & what's up with
the "2" in the title? It's almost as if LIONS GATE was trying to market
this as the second film in the franchise, which would be stupid,
because this film along with LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD, will just get
shelved alongside the other films in the series & considering that no
other LEPRECHAUN movies have been made it's obvious the studio's plan
blew up in their faces. Another thing that makes me think LIONSGATE was
trying to make fans think this was the second film, is when the psychic
towards the end of the film, tells the kids that centuries ago all the
Leprechauns retreated back to their world except for one who stayed
here & became evil. Although at the beginning of the film when the
psychic opens a book entitled "Leprechaun" it says on the first page
"Chapter 6" so maybe they weren't trying to make fans ignore the fact
that the previous four films existed. The films story is none to
different that the first three LEPRECHAUN movies as you can tell by the
plot. Notably the film takes several ideas from the first LEPRECHAUN
movie. The main one being how a four leaf clover can kill the Irish
monster, the folklore of "if you find the end of a rainbow, a
Leprechaun's gold is sure to be there". The Leprechaun' getting his eye
gouged out & then replacing it just as easy & also reenacts a scene
from LEPRECHAUN 2, where a gold tooth is extracted from a person's
mouth, although in this case, the scene was done much more violently,
with the victims bottom jaw being ripped off & the gold tooth taken &
this time worn by the creature. Another thing that separates this
sequel apart from the first four films, is that this time, it's the
same Leprechaun from Part 5, wherein the other films each had a
different Leprechaun monster. There's also plenty of humour when the
Leprechaun tries to drive a police car but can't because he is too
short, so he uses a severed cop leg to push down the gas pedal. A big,
dark woman receives the best massage she has ever had when at the hands
& feet's of Lep himself (in fact this is the first film where we see
Lep's feet & their just as ugly as his face!) & we also get to see his
softer side as he talks to a previous victims girlfriend on a cell
phone, she appears interested when he tells her he has a good body, red
hair & is fairly good looking but when she learns he is just a little
over three feet, she hangs up! In the end the group much like the
previous ones in the fifth film, fail to stop the Leprechaun, with the
four leaf clovers & even a cremation unable to kill him. Instead he's
hit with a box of gold & falls off a building, drowning in wet cement.
But it's not over yet, the final shot is an image from the psychics
book, where it's hand pops out of the now dry cement, ready to continue
it's adventures. Series fans will no doubt be satisfied, but others
watch out!
**1/2 stars
Obviously, nobody is expecting cinematic brilliance from a movie with the
title "Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha Hood", but the most one could hope for is
trashy fun. Unfortunately, too much of this straight-to-video lamefest is
boring scenes where bad actors just spout bad dialogue back and forth.
Without a hint of gore or nudity, "Back 2 Tha Hood" follows the same story
as all the previous Leprechaun movies. Characters find gold, Lep kills
them, etc. Thankfully there is some humor injected here and there, but
overall this crappy sequel is barely even worth reading user comments on.
What's wrong with you?
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Why ?! I can ask it too many times to the film studios but why did even
make a 6th one ? And also one who is almost a copy of the previous one.
I would have understand that decision if the 5th one was a success, but
it was terrible. And this one was, if possible, more terrible than the
last one.
What can you further about the last part of this terrible franchise.
The storyline was again a huge fail. The leprechaun has a few moment
and is defeated again so easily, they can blow him of the roof without
having any difficulties with killing it.
The acting was to laugh about as well so I rate this film 1/10
Well this one does pick up where the first one left off. this one is campy, very funny, got lots of wanna be gangsters,, the lep firing off guns,, lot's of funny moments,, for instance when the Leprechaun steals a cop car and he says,, aww hell,, he looks down realizes he can't reach the gas pedal,, and when he tries to get a date with one of the brother's friends,, he describes himself to the girl on the phone,, the she asks him for his height,, he says 3 ft. 6 , she hangs up..the storyline has to do with a fortune teller who tells the black youths not to give in to the wealth of all the gold that they find,, but of course these teens are dumb, stupid they don't listen, and get caught up in the Leprechauns' schemes once again,, this one i would say is more on the funny side,, not to be taken seriously by anyone really.

Talent acquisition for a government of the future
The "government of the future" requires the right talent in middle and upper management to drive effective decision-making and new service delivery models.
Government & Public Sector
Doing more with less
Policy-makers are operating in a rapidly-changing world. Shifting demographics, urbanization and climate change are just a few of the long-term and systemic trends reshaping 21st century government.
And with finances tight, growth stalling and unemployment high, the legacy of the financial crisis continues to play out across borders.
Our Government & Public Sector practice aims to be the preferred partner in driving transformational change for governments around the world. In countries large and small, developed and emerging, we understand the issues and can provide you services that will have lasting impact.
- Advising on public–private partnerships
EY has a leading public–private partnership (PPP) advisory group, having accumulated considerable experience of work with public authorities throughout the world, including expertise in debt advisory.
Along with PPP and concession projects in Western Europe, North America and Australia, where PPP schemes of financing are not new and the debt financing market is strongly developed, EY has performed pilot PPP projects in Russia and CIS countries.
In Russia, our projects have included development of PPP structures for construction of airports, toll roads and other infrastructure. Our Project Finance team includes PPP specialists as well as banking, finance, transport and engineering experts, allowing us to perform our assignments with high quality and strong results.
Internationally, our team works with governments and major infrastructure companies, enriching our experience with the best international standards and practices associated with PPP projects.

- Defense
Public sector debt is spiraling in many countries, and the desire to reduce budget deficits has suddenly become top priority for policy-makers around the world. Portfolios across the whole spectrum of government are coming under pressure. Defense is no exception.
However, while armed forces will likely continue to be required to reduce budgets even while national demands on their capabilities remain very high, two trends are evident. In the Western world, the spending growth typical of high-developed countries that dominated the defense landscape for decades is over. In developing countries, defense spending is increasing significantly. Because they have lower public debt levels, most of them are successfully funding the expansion of their defense capabilities.
EY help governments around the world move toward increasing effectiveness through improved organizational structure, procurement and resource management.
- Infrastructure
Infrastructure investment and development is a top priority for governments globally — an indispensable necessity for poverty reduction, social progress and inclusive economic growth. While rapid urbanization is putting pressure on emerging markets to develop critical new infrastructure, developed economies need to expand existing infrastructure due to aging assets and sustained underinvestment.
With global population expected to reach 8 billion by 2025, infrastructure investments are needed to supply sufficient water, roads, bridges, housing and power.
Infrastructure projects are significant in size, scope, complexity, and in financing arrangements. They also bring increased public scrutiny. We offer a full range of financial, tax and legal advisory services on infrastructure projects.
EY Infrastructure team has extensive experience in project preparation, implementation and monitoring. We provide support from the earliest stages of analysis, from project evaluation and feasibility study to procurement, financial close, construction, operations. We can assist our clients in devising and comparing financial plans, developing appropriate legal structure of the project and delivery approaches for projects that involve public, federal or private financing — and provide support to our clients in their implementation of those plans.
EY Infrastructure Advisory team actively pursues the majority of high-profile infrastructure projects in Russia including major toll road projects, airport projects and utilities projects.
We are familiar with Russian regulatory requirements in the infrastructure sector and have a deep understanding of tax, commercial and legal issues of business. We have a strong track record of collaboration with technical experts and industry advisors in transport, airport and utilities projects.

- Tax & customs
Business and tax landscapes are changing dramatically, and the pace and complexity of change continues to increase. EY help clients across the globe navigate this shifting landscape.
Governments are tempering the need for revenue with increased competition for labor and capital. Tax authorities are adapting their enforcement strategies, focus and policies in response to the changing dynamics of business. Our Global GPS Tax team can provide tax compliance and advisory services, tax policy development, as well as support the strengthening and modernization of tax and customs administrations.
- Transport
Transport is vital to any nation's prosperity and standard of living. The solutions required to solve transport challenges are becoming increasingly complex. With government funding now very limited, governments need to be innovative to increase competitiveness through improvements in transport efficiency and customer service in the face of population growth and capacity constraints.
EY is at the forefront with service providers and government policy makers as we meet these challenges. Our global network of professionals is skilled in all aspects of the sector. Working across both the passenger and freight sectors, we assist governments with:
- Transport strategic planning
- Transport investment business cases
- Customer experience and service improvement initiatives
- Commercial and financial advice on major transport projects
- Contestability and commissioning
- Regulatory reform
- Business process transformation and change management
- Strategic procurement and program management

Foreign Office, S.W.1. (C 268/191/41) 15th January, 1942. Confidential My dear Citrine, In my letter of the 1st December last I told you that I was bringing the case of Largo Caballero to the notice of His Majesty's Ambassador at Washington. 2. I have now received a report from Lord Halifax stating that he has learnt from the United States authorities that the United States Government took up the case with the Vichy Government some weeks ago and obtained an assurance from them that Largo Caballero would not be extradited to Spain. So far as the United States Government are aware there have been no further developments since that time and they hope that the proposal to extradite him has been dropped. Yours sincerely Anthony Eden The Right Honourable Sir Walter Citrine, K.B.E.

Perspective on Bank Capital Adequacy: Time-Series Analysis
The first part of this paper provides a historical perspective on bank risks. Five-year moving average measures of total risk, market risk, and nonmarket risk are computed for an index of New York banks from 1929-1975 and for an index of outside New York banks from 1950-1976.We use a carefully constructed series of bank balance sheet data to compute correlations among various components of New York banks' port-folios and observe trends over time. The time series relationship between book values and market values is investigated, and classical measures of capital adequacy are calculated using surrogates for market values rather than book values. Finally, data are presented on the movement of interest rates and the term structure over time. Serial correlations and cross-correlations are computed. The second part of the paper uses the technique proposed in Sharpe ("Bank Capital Adequacy, Deposit Insurance and Security Values," June 1978) to gain information about capital adequacy. He has shown that for a bank with deposit liabilities that do not extend beyond the review period a "value preserving spread" in asset risk is likely to increase the value of capital. Moreover, the less adequate the capital, the larger this effect should be. We outline the method used to develop an econometric model to test for this effect. The model is then applied to time series data from 1938 to 1975.

I just fought a lvl 6 novice with a lvl 2 Scarlett in his deck. I looked up his name on the player rankings and noticed that he joined May of this year, and that he has never purchased credits so he can't even trade on the market. I'm just curious if Scarlett was just retired in the last few months, so that this little novice is just Lucky or something.
No wonder, thanks.
It was in May
Posted: Tue, 02 May 2006 00:00:00 GMT
The famous twin sisters Manon and Scarlett from the Magazine \"Mana Rouge\", joined the Pussycats today. These sexy fighters, designed by Bruno Bellamy, the famous french artist, will be available only until the 31st of may. Since this morning, General and Guru are not available in the shop. They can still be played and traded on the market by those who already have them.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Tropical Fish Diseases
- - How to Humanely Euthanize a Fish
How to Humanely Euthanize a Fish There comes a time in every aquarist's life when a fish that can no longer recover from disease or injury must be euthanized. This is no easy task but it can be done humanely and peacefully without stress to fish. Acceptable Methods Clove Oil & Vodka 1. Add tank water to a measuring cup or other container. Measure the amount of tank water you add to the cup or container and make a note of it. Place the fish in the container. If the fish is in a clear container, place a dark towel around it to calm the fish. 2. Fill a small, clean jar or bottle with tank water, leaving some room at the top. This might be a baby food jar or pill bottle. Put 1 drop of clove oil in the jar or bottle, cap and shake vigorously. The clove oil must emulsify, turning the water milky white. 3. Gently pour about 1/4 of this emulsified mixture into the fish's container. The fish will begin to fall asleep. Let the fish be for about 10 minutes. The fish should be resting on the bottom by then. It will look dead, but if you watch closely its gills will be breathing once every few seconds. If after 10 minutes the fish is still rising off the bottom swimming intermittently, retrieve the jar or bottle of emulsified clove oil, re-shake, and add the same dose to the fish's container. Wait again. 4. Once the fish is asleep on the bottom, add 20-25% white grain alcohol such as vodka. For example, if the fish is in 8oz of water, add 2oz of vodka. Let the fish stay there for at least 20 minutes. 5. Check the fish carefully after 20 minutes for any gill movement. If there is no gill movement over a 60 second period, the fish has expired. Freezing Freeze water in a bag or container untill the water is slushy. Place your fish in the water and continue to freeze it. The fish's metabolism simply slows way down and eventually stops. Unacceptable Methods: Unacceptable methods of euthanasia are: boiling, chopping, removing the fish from water, using a seltzer tablet, slamming, pithing, decapitating, or flushing down the toilet. These methods are slow, torturous, stressful and violent. Please never use these methods to euthanize your fish. Hopefully you will rarely have to perform this task, but when you do, it is at least comforting to know your fish does not have to suffer. |
Other Humane/Acceptable Methods Decapitation This should be done quickly by quickly rupturing the spine of the fish just above its head using a very sharp knife or scissors. This will result to instanteneous death but this method is often less untouched by a majority of aquarists as they often view this as inhumane. It can be quite a pain if you fail after the fish manage to survive in a manner that it's still struggling or bleeding becoming a mess. Swift Blow on the Head Another humane method but still viewed as inhumane. To do this, you have to strike the fish against a hard surface in a quick manner. This will let the fish die instantly. Unacceptable Methods: Flushing We do not advocate this method nor do we recommend it for use to beginners. Many of us think this will result to a painless death but researches have come up that fish is subjected to several things that may happen in the sewer system which we can view as rather unpleasant. Removing the fish from the water Removing the fish from the water and left to die in the land is unacceptable IMO. This is rather cruel because you are actually subjecting it to torture through traumatic or stressful experiences. Seltzer Tablet Often viewed as inhumane since this act is like intentional suffocation of the fish which leaves it struggling before it dies. For clove oil, you may buy them online. Click here. Thread now updated. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.:) |

A Hormone Pick Me Up For Seniors?
A NEW HORMONE-REPLACE-ment therapy appears to ease the pains of aging. It involves an adrenal-gland hormone: dehydroepiandrosterone, or DHEA, which usually dwindles by age 70 to about 10% of its peak at age 25. Dr. Samuel S.C. Yen, an endocrinologist at the University of California at San Diego, gave daily pills of synthetic DHEA to 13 men and 17 women aged 40 to 70. Yen reported his research last year in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. The results: 80% of the women and two-thirds of the men in the double-blind study reported an "increase in well-being," more energy, and less muscle fatigue. Sexual desire appeared to be unaffected.
DHEA was discovered in 1960 by French scientist Etienne-Emile Baulieu, who also created RU-486, the abortion pill. Although DHEA's precise function remains uncertain, Yen's findings "make sense," says Alberto Hayek, an endocrinologist with the Whittier Institute in La Jolla, Calif. Bigger clinical trials are planned, and Yen says he might market DHEA.

Logano surprises self with Infineon pole
June 24, 2011, Sporting News Wire Service, NASCAR.com
SONOMA, Calif. -- Negotiating the right- and left-hand turns at Infineon Raceway like a veteran road-course racer, Joey Logano won the pole for the Toyota/Save Mart 350. "I never looked at myself as a road-course racer," said Logano, who added that he found speed in his car after some post-practice adjustments improved the handling substantially. The Coors Light Pole Award was the second for Logano, who posted a lap at 93.256 mph and watched as the 12 drivers who followed him in Friday's time trials failed to run faster. * Out Front with Miss Coors Light: Rachel and Joey Jamie McMurray (93.223 mph) qualified second, and Paul Menard (93.176 mph) claimed the third starting position for Sunday's race, the 16th of the season in the Sprint Cup Series. Winning the pole was a welcome change for Logano, who has but one top-five finish this season and is 23rd in the Cup standings. Those who might have expected road-course aces Marcos Ambrose and Juan Montoya to top the qualifying speed chart got a surprise. Ambrose posted the eighth-fastest time, and Montoya was 17th. Denny Hamlin qualified fourth, followed by Ryan Newman, Kasey Kahne, A.J. Allmendinger and Ambrose. "This is the last place that I figured we'd get a pole," Logano said. "After practice, I felt like we needed a lot more forward drive, a lot more side bite in the car, and they [the crew] made it happen. "I was surprised. I felt like my lap was OK. I didn't feel like it was stellar -- by no means. And it held up. We were watching the last three cars out -- Kasey, who got the pole last year; Denny, our [Joe Gibbs Racing] teammate, who's really good here; and Kurt [Busch], who was [nearly) four-tenths [of a second] faster than everyone in practice and has gotten the last three poles. ... "I didn't really think it was going to hold up, and I don't think any of my guys thought it was going to hold up, but we're really pumped up right now. We needed a good momentum change for our Home Depot team right now. We've been going through a little bit of a drought, and this is definitely going to help us a lot." With qualifying order set by practice speeds, from slowest to fastest, Busch, trying to win his fourth consecutive Cup pole, was the last of the 44 cars to make an attempt. "We were fastest in practice but just couldn't put down the qualifying lap that we needed," said Busch, who will start 11th on Sunday. "We missed it in Turns 4 and 7 and were just slow in 10. When you add all that up, you just can't give away that much time on this track." After a disappointing practice and a 23rd-place qualifying effort, Cup points leader Carl Edwards withdrew from Saturday's Nationwide Series race at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wis., to concentrate on practicing his Cup car. * Edwards shifts gear, staying put at Sonoma The defending winner at Road America, Edwards would have missed both Cup practices on Saturday had he flown to Wisconsin for the Nationwide race.
