from Alexandre Dang
You may ask how a "Dancing Solar Painting" can move? A "Dancing Solar Painting" is composed of a photovoltaic cell producing solar electricity that triggers the movement when there is light. The more light there is, the faster the "Dancing Solar Painting" moves! When covering the solar cell, the "Dancing Solar Painting" slows down!
Our way of life needs to move towards sustainable development: sustainable energies shall play a key role in the future. In this context, the solar-powered flowers contribute raising awareness of the potential of renewable energy for mankind and for the environment.
Enjoy and share sustainable solar art with people you love!

Enhance a desk or tabletop with the contemporary elegance of this modern tabletop fountain that has a built-in LED light.
More Details >Mimicking the fluid flow of water that fills it, this tabletop fountain boasts an organic form that will enhance any contemporary decor. An included LED light illuminates the piece, enhancing all of its beauty. For indoor tabletop use.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
This fountain is great. I wanted a fountain that did not spray water on the furniture it was sitting on. This has a small water flow and not much water noise but it does not splash out of the bowl. The fountain looks expensive but it is not.
Everything I have bought from Lamps Plus has been as promised. Great products, fast delivery.
Awesome fountain. Add a lot of pebbles, rocks, etc and you will hear the water flow. The picture doesn't do justice. I thought it was a porcelain or glass fountain, but it's plastic (which makes no difference). The fountain is mesmerizing and is everything I wanted. Since I use this fountain in my work office, I am going to get another one for my home. Everyone who sees it wants to have one, so LampsPlus will certainly have additional customers.
Best service I have received in a long time!
I use the product to enhance my meditation and coaching practice. It is small and aesthetically pleasing. I like the gntle sounds of water.

June 18, 2012 Pebble HuntingDo You Know Your Hairstons?
R.J. Anderson and I were talking the other day about how much baseball analysis depends on getting the thing published before the player/pitcher plays another game and undoes whatever point the writer is trying to make. This is true for bad baseball analysis, but it's also true for a lot of good baseball analysis, because player performances are just so friggin' random. If you ever see an article that cites a player's stats and says "as I write this on Saturday," and the thing gets published on a Monday, you can bet the writer is afraid his premise is going to be voided by a couple hitless games.
As I write this on Saturday, Jerry Hairston, Jr. and Scott Hairston are good at baseball. One Hairston has a high batting average and a whole bunch of home runs. The other Hairston has a really high batting average and a ton of walks. This is as specific as I can be, because, like most Americans, I struggle to keep my Hairstons straight. Hairston confusion is the cause of one in three car accidents between April and October, and two in three cruise-ship-related deaths. If you have ever read a recipe that called for a teaspoon of salt, and then you went to the stove and couldn't remember if it was teaspoon or tablespoon, even though you just read it three seconds earlier and you were saying "teaspoon teaspoon teaspoon" over and over in your head, that's the Hairston working in your brain. We're not even totally sure Hairstons exist, or that there aren't more of them. The act of observing a Hairston changes its state.
How well do YOU know your Hairstons? Take our quiz to find out, and you will never confuse the two players again. (Note: Many internet users apparently prefer to take such things in slideshow format. If this is you, simply reload this page after each question.) Question: What is the official marketing slogan of Sabakiball?
a) fast. furious. fun. d) Dude, what are you even talking about, Africa is totally a country.
4. When asked about Bryce Harper, one Hairston said that Bryce Harper's ages 25-to-27 seasons would be comparable to those of Jay Bruce. Question: At the time he said this, how old was Jay Bruce?
10. Jerry Hairston and Scott Hairston are actually quite different as players. Jerry was a low-round pick who is the classic overachiever, compensating for his lack of great ability by running around in all directions and looking busy. He once described his strength as "getting runners over," which is a way of saying his strength is "getting out." He used to steal some bases, though not at a very good rate of success, and now he has wisely stopped trying. There's reason to think he's an excellent defensive corner outfielder, and he rarely strikes out, so as he enters the Jamey Carroll portion of his career he is making more money ($6 million split between this year and next) than he has ever made in his career.

I LOVE the B-wing, anyone else? As a kid was a cool toy/ship to play with. As I got older and talked star wars with friends I found out the B-wing was either hated or forgotten about. WHAT??? Even now Hasbro released a Bwing to Kmart and it most places it did not sell. Saw them marked down from $30 to $10! Back in the old days the B-wing figure did not sell great but it was the end of the line. It is one of the cheapest and easy to find POTF figures. Most of the other POTF go for new $100, it tops out at like $30 I think
It's not featured very prominently in ROTJ, it's a bit of a confusing design, plus it doesn't simply sit upright. Not factors that are going to help toy sales. I'm surprised Kenner didn't go with the more conservatively designed A-wing for the ROTJ line instead, rather than holding off until the Droids line.
I thought the description of the toy was neat but I never had it and have yet to see it in action. I think by the time it came out, my STAR WARS toy collecting was waning. The Y-Wing finally came out around the same time or later and I preferred to get one of those.
Does anyone know why it is called B-Wing? It doesn't look like the High Galactic Alphabet "B" or Aurebesh "Berek". Then you should marry it.^^
It does look like a B! Not a big B but a little b The x wing makes a x Y wing looks like a y A wing kind of like a A B wing is a b
I don't hate it. It's preety cool & all. Kinda slow in the Rogue Squadron games, though, but still better than Slave 1.
Well I never 'hated' it (it's a spaceship, not an irritating or evil character), but as I pointed out above, there's a few reasons it wasn't as popular as the others. I never even saw any for sale in the old days (in Australia, we didn't seem to get the whole line - rarely got some of the less popular vehicles or playsets). The B-wing pilot figure always just seemed like an X-wing pilot with wonkier looking headgear. I had one, though, so I'll always have a soft spot for the B-wing fighter, even if I never had the vehicle.
I don't have a problem with the B-wing, or the Y-wing for that matter, I just have a tremendous preference for the X-wing and the A-wing.
Nothing wrong with a B-wing...but it's kinda on the chunky side of the starfighter scale, and doesn't offer much protection considering it's size. It sure isn't a snubfighter! On the other hand, it offers the most firepower of any starfighter in the rebel fleet at the time. Plus, they're hard to maintain. All those gyros and power converters...
I love the b-wing remember being able to fly it in rogue squadron games on GameCube shame if didn't get more screen time always remember that picture of Death Star 2 in background with a star destroyer about to blow with 3 b-wings at forefront of picture
It's a cool ship, I've always liked it. I'm sure you've all seen that image, but that's some epic **** right there.

Comment Re:Nazi policies make cracking EASIER (Score 1) 271
That would be lovely. I for one would welcome a login roadblock from my security overlord which read to the effect of, "We periodically test the strength of our user's passwords by running automated checks. These methods are similar to what an attacker might do if they gained access to our password database. We value our customers and want to ensure that we provide you the highest level of safety. Your password was flagged as being too weak, and you must change it before continuing to log in. Please verify that your session is secure (blue icon in the address bar and https: before the URL), then change your password by entering your old password and new password in the form below:"
Bonus points if there's an 800 number to speak to a live person at the bank.
They'd piss a lot of people off, but sheesh (god forbid grandpa has to change from the 4-digit PIN he's been using ever since it was his locker combination in middle school). At least they have the confidence that if things ever go pear-shaped and someone makes off with their entire password database, it won't be easily cracked. And it gives *me* the confidence that they probably know what they're doing and have their password database properly salted and protected on their end.

First up, my friend gets his plane up, flies for about 45 seconds and then a dead stick.
He has a 1/4 scale GP cub ARF. It is the same plane he lost control of last year and plowed it into a gravel pit. Well his engine was giving him problems so he was running it full throttle and misjudged the distance between the plane,,,,, and a tree. I heard the roar of the engine, the unmistakeable sound of branches being moved, then silence. I was busy trying to adjust my OS 51, and I said, tell me you didnt just hit that tree, and as I look up I see what is left of his wing fluttering down. The fuse ripped off and lawn darted 30 yards away. He said he can rebuid it, and probably can, but man what a MESS.
I think he jinxed me. After first fiddling with the carb and thinking I had it right I take off and less than 5 minutes, dead stick. I landed a few feet over from where he landed. I got the plane back and was fiddling with the carb when he did his tree triming manuever. I finally got it smoothed out and take off. I had a good 10 minutes going, and my wife and kids show up, and kids being kids were making noise and distracting me, so I bring mine in to land. The landing was pretty good, actually better than my usual nose over landings. Problem was, and I am kicking myself for not going around, I landed too far down the strip and too close to the edge. The right wheel caught a dip in the grass where it was cut an inch lower than the rest, hooked a bit right and before I could bring it far enough left, smacked the right wing into his pile of B26 parts. Grrr still kicking myself for not going around.
Anyhow, mine isnt too bad, I repaired the cracked leading edga dn busted ribs, just need to recover, but the tail wheel busted when it ground looped after striking the plane. I have a new one on order.. This was my new Kadet, with only 4 flights on it. Not even really dirty yet. Thankfully my covering job allows me to remove from the spar forward without damaging the rest. I only have to replace a small strip of covering instead of large patches. The tail wheel though, not sure how I am going to replace that without cutting through the covering. Maybe I can cut the wire off and snake it out that way.

Stella and Pete are both great dogs. I couldn't wait for Carol to breed again so I got a Pete pup from his third breeding. Great pup so far. May have to get on Carols list if she repeats Pete. Stella is truely a nice female and dbl header winner.
Doug Augspurg
Thanks to you all for recognizing Stella's accomplishments and acknowledging the Pete/Stella litter. As of this date, the litter has 113 derby points (110 acknowledged by Retriever Results). LeRoy has the 2nd and the gazillion jams, but not recognized by RR unless they are on the list. Interesting to note that LeRoy thinks running pattern blinds is the most fun ever, so it will be interesting to see how he develops as a Q dog! The litter success is all about getting dogs in the right hands of owners who care alot about the development of their dogs. A variety of pros have worked with these dogs: Eric Fangsrud/Cody Kemp at Mission Mountain Retrievers; Mark Henry (SOB--South of Bellevue), Mark Madore, (Clearwater Retrievers), Gary Abbott (Nomadic Retrievers), Mark Frederick/Jim Gonia (McKenna Kennels). Seems most of us are having a pretty fun time. A special thanks to Rita and Frank Jones and Mark Clark for putting Stella in my life. Fun ride.
Patton's Blazen Abby has to be in the conversation.

Can you believe it's been 40 years since Elton John's "Benne and The Jets" has come out? Well, the classic is soon going to be rereleased mastered. But in addition to the reissue of the album it's on, a cover of the track by Miguel and Wale will also be featured on it. The cover charmingly still contains all of the fun pop and even subtle psych sounds but instead is sung by the budding R&B star Miguel. He does a great job of translating the classic for modern times. And adding on to the modernization of the track, Wale drops few verses in the new interpretation.
The track will be available on the 40th Anniversary release of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. It will also be released in all formats with a limited edition yellow vinyl box set that will have a handful of unreleased exclusives.

The following is the text of the keynote address delivered by Ron Yerxa and Albert Berger at the annual Sundance Film Festival Producers Brunch Sunday, Jan. 20. They are the producers of "King of the Hill," "Election," "Cold Mountain," "Little Miss Sunshine," "Little Children," "Ruby Sparks" and "The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman," which will have its world premiere Monday, Jan. 21, at the Eccles Theatre.
Ron Yerxa: Good Morning Sundance Comrades and Assorted Friends
We are so grateful that Sundance has created this beautiful ceremony in honor of our 20th anniversary as partners in Bona Fide Productions.
To be totally transparent, this isn't actually our 20th year, it's more like 21 or 23 depending on how you're counting. But our appropriation of this event is in keeping with the central theme of today's talk: "Producers uniquely make the most out of the opportunities we are given." So give or take a couple years, this is our 20-year anniversary party, and it's the only one we'll ever have — so thank you Sundance Institute.
We're here today not to bemoan the current plight of producers as victims of market forces and rampant technology. Instead we offer an alternative interpretation — that we producers are the anxious giants of the emerging filmmaking world — embodying the admirable traits of flexibility, spontaneity and resilience.
True, we are cast adrift into the cruel secular world without a safety net. And yet against all fragmentation and downsizing, we keep creating dramatic content. The French existentialist philosopher Jean Paul Sartre was perhaps thinking of the lonely struggle of the independent producer when he wrote, "Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself."
When Anne and Michelle invited us here, we couldn't imagine compressing our thoughts on the transformation of the film industry over the last two decades into just 50 minutes. Then they gently informed us that we have been allotted 8 minutes.
Given this draconian time constraint, the rich array of specific and helpful information on new financing models and the future of VOD that we had planned to present here will instead be embedded in the version of this talk that will be posted on Indiewire sometime soon.
But for now, and because it's Sunday, we want to address a personal question that no one has asked: "What are the emotional and philosophical principles that have guided us over the last 20 years?" During that time, Bona Fide grew from just the two of us in a room sharing a card table, to today, the three of us — each with our own desk.
Just to break that down from a statistical perspective, that's 50% growth — well over 2% a year — just slightly below the rate of inflation. On a sad note, our fees have failed to keep pace.
Albert will now take you through a painfully abbreviated overview of the last twenty years to illustrate some of these guiding principles.
Albert Berger: Thank you for your warm introduction, Ron. To be precise, Bona Fide Productions had its start at the 1989 Sundance Film Festival on this very day 24 years ago. Ron and I had just made the decision to throw our lot in together as producers. I had been a screenwriter and Ron a studio executive. We arrived at Sundance with one quasi-legitimate project in hand, Toby Woolf's memoir "This Boy's Life."
I say quasi-legitimate because we didn't exactly have the rights to "This Boy's Life." Ron and I went to a book reading a couple of weeks before Sundance and asked Toby for permission to try to set up his book. He graciously allowed us to give it a go — at least until someone made him a reasonable offer. I guess he figured he had nothing to lose by letting us to shop the book.
So there we were at Sundance — aspiring producers armed with a project. It was just before 10 pm on the first Sunday of the festival, and Ron and I tried to get into a party with only one ticket between us. One of us entered, got our hand stamped and promptly exited, attempting the old "rub the stamp on the other guy's hand" routine. The party bouncer wasn't amused and refused to let us in.
As fate would have it, we found ourselves across the street from the Prospector and decided to take a chance on a movie. It happened to be the very first screening of "sex, lies, and videotape." There were 50 people in the audience. The movie started and we were mesmerized. We had no idea who the director was. But you could tell immediately that this was a real filmmaker, completely on his game. There were compelling flawed characters. It was personal and cinematic. Most remarkably, Ron didn't fall asleep.
In the Q&A afterwards, I showcased my marketing skills by insisting that the title "sex, lies, and videotape" would never work and needed to be changed immediately. After the screening, we maneuvered our way through a throng of well-wishers to congratulate director Steven Soderbergh. We introduced ourselves and told him about "This Boy's Life." He said it very much sounded like a book he always wanted to make into a movie called "King of the Hill." We agreed to keep talking.
By the end of the week, "sex, lies…" had become a sensation, and Steven was being chased through snow banks on Main Street, everyone desperate to hear about his next project. Over coffee, Steven somehow expressed a willingness to work with us. Ron and I read "King of the Hill" and had the good sense to change directions and pursue the book Steven wanted to do. Universal stepped up to develop "King of the Hill." Suddenly, Ron and I were producers with a studio film.
In looking back, there were many aspects of Sundance '89 that shaped and defined our path. In our early days, we didn't have a track record and no one would send us scripts, so we specialized in books like "This Boys Life" and "King of the Hill" that were obscure or had slipped through the cracks. Our later film "Election" was based on an unpublished manuscript that was sitting in author Tom Perrotta's desk drawer because the publishing world had deemed it hopelessly trapped between literary and young adult fiction. "Cold Mountain" had been passed on by every studio in town before we picked it up at Book Soup. It dawned on us that you didn't need a development fund to shop material and establish yourself as a producer. You didn't need rights. If you read a book that you liked and there weren't a lot of people competing with you, all you needed to do was figure out how to align yourself with the right partner or emerging filmmaker. Years later, Soderbergh joked that when we told him we owned "This Boy's Life," he didn't realize we meant we only owned a copy of the book.
Seeing an independent film at Sundance by a first-time filmmaker, connecting with them and collaborating on their first studio film was a pattern that Ron and I repeated many times after "King of the Hill." We saw "Citizen Ruth" here and connected with Alexander Payne to make "Election" at MTV/Paramount. We saw "In the Bedroom" here and later joined up with Todd Field to make "Little Children" at New Line. We're drawn to big and small films alike but our sweet spot has been in the seams between the independent and the studio worlds.
Perhaps the biggest lesson we learned at Sundance 1989 was that it doesn't always go the way you anticipate but that that can be a good thing. In other words, you show up at Sundance, you get thrown out of a party, you see a great movie and suddenly anything's possible.
Ron Yerxa: Thank you, Albert. That journey was so vivid I almost feel like I was there.
Now to add some more gravitas. I'd like to describe an epiphany based on an actual recent incident while we were driving from the Omaha airport to our location in rural Nebraska in the middle of the night. We turned off the highway to get a beer and when we got back on the road, the built-in GPS system in our rented Ford Escape scolded us by saying we'd gone off the route and must turn around and go back. But the after-market Tom Tom GPS supplied as a backup immediately started recalculating and said, "Proceed, Old Man. There's another way to get there." That was both a life lesson and a teachable moment for our talk today: 1) "There's never a need to turn back," 2) "There's always another way to get there as long as you know where you're going," and 3) "Every wrong turn presents a new opportunity."
So let's celebrate our spontaneity and resilience and ability to recalculate quickly and learn from even the most mundane experiences. We are free spirits liberated from corporate restraints, with their overbearing bosses and soul-crushing expense accounts. Why fly First Class when you can bring your own mixed nuts?
With each film we make and the way we make it, we answer to our own conscience. Our films can open the door to a fresh, liberating vision or kick it shut with some tired social pornography. We are the new "entrepreneurial existential warriors" — at least until the people atop Deer Valley awaken and descend down the mountain to enter our dreams and demand a "produced by" credit.
Albert Berger: We want to give special acknowledgement to our colleagues from "The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman," many who are here today. You showed up in Bucharest with a love for the project, a strong point of view and a desire to make a movie that matters. You certainly understand the importance of hanging together through all the unpredictable twists and turns a film can take and that in the end something better comes out of it. It was an exhilarating experience that Ron and I will never forget. Onwards to our premiere!
As the film business shifts and changes around us, Ron and I keep plugging away, trying our best to adhere to our principles, some that we stumbled upon that first "Bona Fide Sundance." We believe that the audience is important. Movies are an expensive proposition, and we very much value the collective response to our stories. But we don't want to fixate on a foreign sales paradigm, which limits your choices to the same narrow group of actors and promotes a homogenized cookie-cutter film culture. Our goal is to make personal films for an audience. We don't want to waste your time. It's an honor to produce movies, and we take the job very seriously.
Ron Yerxa: We can't thank the generous people of Sundance enough for being fellow travelers on our journey. More than most people in the room, we look forward to the year 2033, when we hope to be asked to speak here again — at the groundbreaking of the Sundance Assisted Living Facility. Until then, let's remember the words of Jean Paul Sartre and embrace the optimistic spontaneity of the Tom Tom GPS system — and fight on as proud comrades and competitors!

Qûr Tharkasdóttir alerts us to the news that an earlier court ruling in Italy, that placed liability on Yahoo for not magically knowing how to block all links that might lead to certain infringing material, has been overturned. Apparently, the higher court realized that applying such third party liability was crazy (Google translation from the original Italian. The translation is a bit funky, but it seems clear that the court recognized the basic problems of telling Yahoo it must automatically block all links that might lead to infringing movies based solely on the title of that movie. Chalk one up for common sense... though it's a shame it had to wait until an appeal to get the ruling right.

i LOVE IT
this is as bad as suing the PHONE BOOK for listing an adult book store, or listing a Muslim church..
Or, looking for a book on Living off the grid, Jungle Survival, Ayn rand..
Or dialing 411, 555-1212...and trying to find a business in your area..
OK, lets ban dialing up the operator to find a NON-EMERGENCY call to the hospital/police/fire dept..
Lets ban libraries for teaching you HOW to do plumbing, because most of those PARTS are Under Patent protection.
Lets ban books in school, as they are copyrighted..Which is funny, as History shouldnt be copy protected. -
fogbugzd (profile), 20 Jul 2011 @ 11:08pmThe court got it right. Yahoo isn't liable. Under European law only Google can be found liable of infringement or anything else that it can be remotely connected to.

It's good to see...
A justice system finally make the right choice on something related to technology.
Now if we could just get the U.S. government to give up this farce called ProtectIP we might just make it somewhere.

But without copy protection, how are they going to tell us what �REALLY� happened? Can't have just anyone writin' the history books donch'ya know... -

But what about Google Video
If Yahoo isn't liable based solely on that it has links to the movie...then what about that infamous Google Video case from a short while back? Where Google Video executives were found guilty of a crime because they weren't quite quick enough to take down links to an offensive video? -

Dansons! (Let's Dance!)
Montpellier Danse International Festival, 1981-2000
Marie-Hélène Rebois goes back over 20 years of contemporary creation at the Festival Montpellier Danse.
Initiated in July 1981 by the French choreographer Dominique Bagouet, the Festival Montpellier Danse has become since then one of the highlights of the international choreographic season. Welcoming every year the most famous companies and choreographers, such as Batsheva, Nederlands Dans Theater, Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker, William Forsythe, or Sankaï Juku, the Festival Montpellier Danse has remained over the years true to its original mission: to be an open place of encounter and research between the different trends of the ballet scene. The leading figures of the Americain modern dance rub shoulders with dancers from Burkina-Faso, baroque dance companies invite hip hop dancers to perform jointly.
Movie director Marie-Hélène Rebois revisits the Festival Montpellier Danse for its 20th anniversary, and draws an exhilarating picture of the contemporary ballet scene.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
U.S. stocks opened higher but dipped into negative territory in late morning trading as the market action resumes following the Christmas holiday. Holiday sales came in light of expectations, but so far the market is shrugging it off.
The unresolved fiscal cliff remains a weight on the market, and urgency will only increase as time runs nigh on 2012. After House Speaker John Boehner's "Plan B" bill fell flat last week, his support was undermined and it was left to Senate leaders and President Barack Obama to iron out a deal.
The president, returning to Washington today early from his family vacation in Hawaii, is still seeking to push through a partial budget deal that would extend tax cuts for those making less than $250,000 per year, which would take care of a significant portion of the cliff. Republicans are hesitant to allow that unanimous part of the deal to go through without other concessions from Democrats.
The S&P 500 is under a bit of pressure, but the fact that we were able to rally after Friday's sharply lower open was a very positive sign. A gap-and-go to the downside would have been a day to take notice, but stocks showed some resilience. The next support pivot to watch on the S&P 500 ETF (NYSE:SPY) is $141.88.
While signs are not encouraging for a budget deal, volume and volatility could remain light through the end of the holiday-shortened week. Look for the real reaction to the fiscal cliff to come after the New Year, but that doesn't mean a clear lack of progress may not weigh on the proceedings.
I know we've had a lot to deal with in the last three months, from Hurricane Sandy to the aftermath of the European Crisis to the horrific tragedy that occurred in Newton, Conn., but I do think the media, especially in today's social media-driven, 24-hour news cycle, focuses far too much on the negative things in our society.
With the amount of coverage given to the fiscal cliff, many Americans believe it is a hard deadline that will immediately unleash financial Armageddon. We are hearing about the potential new recession next year and the lingering possibility that the Euro dissolves. If I had a quarter for every time someone said equities are dead, I would have enough money to be on vacation between Christmas and New Year's! I think the fear mongers are doing the retail investing public a disservice by scaring them away from equities.
The first headline I see today is that U.S. holiday sales growth is the weakest since 2008. U.S. could head into recession as we head over the cliff. Obamacare tax hikes may just be getting started! And so on, and so on.
The financials remain a source of strength in the market. The bank stocks that have underperformed for much of the last few years are now leading: Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) and Citigroup (NYSE:C). The former sector leaders—JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) and Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS)—are lagging a bit but look like they could have more upside. Credit card companies Mastercard (NYSE:MA) and Visa (NYSE:V) were two of the strongest big cap stocks in the market in 2012, and there is no reason to believe that won't continue next year.
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) still has a lot to prove after its recent weakness. If $510.24 holds, perhaps bulls can make the case that we are seeing higher lows, but the stock still feels decidedly heavy. Let's see if holiday sales numbers for the company impress enough to give it a boost, or will they regret the introduction of the iPad mini.
Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) are more compelling longs right now, in my opinion. Amazon has been trending higher, but may need some rest before its next breakout. Still, with some patience the stock looks poised for a strong 2013. Google had a roller coaster year after Scott Redler named it his favorite chart pattern of 2012 at the end of 2011, but looks to be repairing its chart well.
Overall, traders view the current environment as having unfavorable risk-reward parameters. If you choose to actively trade during this holiday period, we believe it is best to be extremely selective, pare down size of trades, and perhaps have shorter holding periods. In choppy, headline driven environments, we feel you need to have either a long-term or ultra short-term perspective.
*DISCLOSURES: Scott Redler is long FB, BAC, YHOO, WFC, XHB, AAPL, TASR. Short SPY.

Hello from Connecticut. We have been selling your beer at Prime 16 in New Haven and it's been doing well. Do you have any tap handles or clip- ons for generic tap handles? It would make it easier to sell your beers. Congratulations on your recent recognition.
Bob Potter - Prime 16 Tap House + BurgersI'm drinking Autumnal as I write this and it is a revelation (as is also all your label artwork). We're experiencing some heat in L.A. at the moment and this is the perfect sparkling contemplative refresher. Congratulations on the awards. Consider me a fan. Any intention of doing a lambic or, on the other side of the universe, a stout? Baltimore. Whew. Home of my guitar amp -- a Tone King -- and, now, my favorite brewery. I should visit.

Let the Night Sky Test Your Eyes
The Milky Way is waiting overhead
The moon wanes to new phase Saturday the 15th. While you may be able to see a razor-thin cresecent low in the east before sunrise Friday, the moon won't reappear until Tuesday, low in the west for less than an hour after sunset. But given the chance, you'll want to catch it, forming a wide obtuse triangle with Saturn slightly higher to the right and Mars higher still to the left. The next night, the scene repeats itself, except the growing moon is now the highest point of the three.
Mars and Saturn continue to drift apart, with the ringed planet sinking ever closer to the west and the sun, while Mars is slowly climbing eastward and higher into the sky.
Mars is an easy target early Wednesday evening as it's just a couple degrees to the right of the bulging crescent moon. To the other side of the red planet you'll find Zubenelgenubi, the upper scale of Libra and the only star reported to glow with a greenish hue. Some people swear they can see it; others say not so. See for yourself.
While Jupiter rises almost an hour before midnight, it puts on its best face in the wee hours, reaching the celestial zenith just before dawn. A half-dozen degrees to the right is Aldebaran, the red eye of Taurus the bull. By that time Venus has joined the scene, rising around 3am and blazing high in the east with daybreak's approach.
With scant interference from the moon, this is the best time of year to spot the Milky Way, which under truly dark skies appears as a hazy band of light stretching across the sky. Sagittarius marks the Milky Way's epicenter, its brightest point. From there, it stretches north to Aqulia, then splits into two branches that snake toward Cygnus. The darkness in between is called the Great Rift, a mass of distant intergalactic gas. From Cygnus the path trickles toward Cassiopeia, again growing brighter as it nears Perseus and Auriga.

I have to admit I've never heard of that teaching cue before on Osoto Gari. I'll have to try it out.
Printable View
In that above Ono video, he reaps and looks "through" the throw, as in underneath and behind him, which seems to facilitate the roll-through.
I did that the other day for my speed drilling, and I liked it, but I don't know if that's what you were getting at or not.
Isn't lining up offset (which I understand the reason for) akin to starting out "t'ed up"?
The hard thing in Osoto Gari is to get into that offset position against a resisting opponent, same as to get into the "t'ed up" position for forward throws.
I've found that how and where exactly I step or move depends greatly on relative size of myself to uke, weight, height, gripping situation, and all that (in order to get uke at enough of a disadvantage to attempt the throw. So how exactly I use my sleeve hand and head control varies quite a bit.
The "generic" cross-body Osoto Gari gets around some of that by pinning uke down with the hooking leg and then adapting from there to what/how uke reacts. Still requires the other elements, but the whole need to get offset tends to be diminished.
He does at the final part of the throw once he's achieved chest contact. The important point that I think Ben was trying to convey and that I would echo, is that you need to keep a strong posture whilst attacking.
A lot of O sotos fail because people drop their head too early and lose power. If you watch the Ono video you'll see as he engages and gains chest contact his back is totally straight regardless of where he's looking.
The best analogy I can think of, which probably won't mean much to an American is scrummaging. The way as a front row forward you need to be able to crouch whilst maintaining a straight back and good body posture.
An example, look at the straight back and excellent posture well into the heart of the attack, uke is already critically off balanced and on his way to being thrown.
It's only once uke is thrown that he starts to really look towards the mat to aid with the drive to completion.
When I'm coaching people on Osoto I tend to tell them to attack from the hips, not the shoulders, this doesn't mean literally hip thrust towards them, obviously. However, I do it to try and get them to consciously not lead with the head, which achieves the real aim of them leading with their chest.
Be interesting to see some video like in the Uchi mata thread if you're up for it.
I guess so, in so much as it's a more optimal position to attack than the classic sleeve lapel equal position. As you know, being fully T-ed up happens rarely though it's more of a training tool than a randori tool. This is where I think offset is different, because it's a very real randori position with some very real and effective attacking options - Sasae, Ko uchi, O soto etc...
Yes, size relative to your opponent changes a lot. If I'm fighting really big guys, in contest I'm more adventerous in randori, I rarely attack with O soto as the counter risk is too great. I tend to switch to O uchi/ Sasae as my primary big attacks.
For me the cross body O soto generally blows the whole offset mechanic out of the water. Once you're in that kenka yotsu position with sleeve end and lapel control then the offsetting thing goes out of the window. However, not so, in my experience, if you have double lapel or lapel and armpit from the kenka yotsu, then you need to do a cross body O soto like Pedro demonstrates where you come in diagonally, but then hop/drive into the canonical offset position.
The follow-through of turning the head is part of the finish of the throw, as I pointed out in an earlier post. It happens to more or less of a degree depending exactly on how you end up throwing uke. As far as all of my training has gone, it's SOP for Osoto Gari and many other throws.
Rotate shoulders and head (to finish), turn inside hip down (close the hip). This all facilitates contact and thus control of uke all the way to the ground. The same elements are in the standard throw with a standing finish, or if you drive into uke and into the ground without rolling through.
Re-reading earlier posts: The above is my primary attack point at all times from kenka yotsu. Although I don't claim to be an expert and have no idea if I've ever paralysed someone in position doing it, the outside ridge of the knee is where I aim for when attacking.
I also only slide/drive my leg down to their ankle if I'm attacking from kenka yotsu with double lapel and or lapel and armpit, in which cases I hop/drive in and round until I'm chest to chest with uke.
Yes, we are on the same page, as usual. Keeping good posture throughout a throwing action/entry is critical, especially against fully resisting opponents. Those who have done Judo with higher level players (especially Japanese), will notice how strong their posture is throughout their range of grip/move/enter/throw sequence(s).
That is a point I emphasize very very strongly when teaching. Head needs to be up, and the spine in as natural a position as possible so as to be able to maintain the widest range of motion.
Obviously, that doesn't always happen. In a sense, tori relative posture and position needs to be sufficiently better than uke to execute a throw. When dealing with skilled opponents, where the margin of error diminishes to practically nil, posture must be excellent to have any chance.
You don't have to be an expert to know how to do it correctly, just to be able to throw other experts, LOL !
I've never slid down to the ankle, I should try it though. Osoto wasn't and isn't my go to throw, not that I have much in the way of that anymore, other than various ashi barai.
To avoid any confusion, please describe to me the ridge of the knee. The kneecap, the area related to the IT bands, hamstring tendon, or what exactly?
I know this may be unnecessarily specific, but I like perfection.
I'd say it's the the tendon that connects the Biceps Femoris to the Fibula.
Make sense now? I had to look up the anatomical names LOL.
That tendon also makes a nice place to hook your toe(s) when doing Hiza Guruma.

Magic in a bottle
By T-Mark Phung
from Riverside, CA
About Me Beauty Conscious
Comments about CLEAR Regular Strength Acne Exfoliant - 4 oz:
This magic in a bottle just does as what it claims. I've already seen an improvement in my acne-prone skin's texture. I only use it once every night in place of the toner step (but I'm about to add a PC's toner in my regimen). Those redness and blemishes become smaller overnight!!

About Me Minimalist
I've struggled with acne my whole life and have tried countless products from the heavy duty prescription to the all natural methods and nothing has ever been as effective as Paula's Choice products. I ordered mainly sample and travel sizes to only last a week so I wouldn't waste any money and I've noticed SUCH a difference. My redness is down, my breakouts are under control and my skin is the softest it's been in years. I almost lost hope in my skin and PC was the last thing to try on my list. My skin isn't perfect yet, but I'm confident that when I try other products and create my personalized routine that I will achieve my skin goals!Also, the reason I'm writing this review on this product specifically is because this is the product I am attributing most of my skin progress to! I highly recommend it!

Perfect for sensitive skin
By Michelle
from Toronto
I use the exfoliant like a toner at least once per day. Twice per day if I have a little acne. It's gentle on my sensitive skin and helps to prevent & control acne. My only complaint is that the bottle is so small. I wish they had a larger more economical size.Prior to discovering Paula's Choice I struggled with acne all my life. Now finally I have clear skin. I experimented with the various products until I found the perfect routine. I have sensitive skin and I live in Toronto where the winters are cold. In the winter I adjust my routine if my skin is dry. These are my favourite products:Morning:CLEAR Pore Normalizing Cleanser or CALM Redness Relief Cleanser (winter)CALM Redness Relief TonerCLEAR Regular Strength Daily Skin Clearing Treatment With 2.5% Benzoyl PeroxideCALM Redness Relief MoisturizerEveningCLEAR Pore Normalizing CleanserCLEAR Regular Strength Acne ExfoliantSKIN PERFECTING 8% AHA Gel ExfoliantorRESIST Intensive Wrinkle-Repair Retinol Serum

great but...
By Brand loyalist
from Chicago, IL
Simply put, I love this product. I have rosacea and get periodic hormonal acne and I find if I use this twice a day, these problems are greatly reduced. If I take a break from this product, my skin becomes more problematic. Here's the caveat: the travel size bottle, which I assume is meant for *travel*, leaks like crazy. It is so annoying. I travel a lot for my work and don't want to be without this product, but I need to tape the edges of the top, both where it meets the bottom and the flip top lid in order to keep the product inside the bottle. I am not the first customer to mention this--come on Paula's Choice, please do something about this fixable problem.

Good product, but packaging is awful
By Kelsey
from Austin, TX
Good product, but the packaging is so incredibly frustrating. Do not buy unless you can leave upright on a counter without any risk of the bottle being knocked over.I was using this product twice daily and had some great results. I was about 1/3 of the way through the bottle when I needed to travel somewhere and take the bottle with me. I had to wrap the bottle in its own separate plastic bag, and when I got to my destination, I found that the bottle had tipped over horizontally and the *entire* bottle had leaked out. This is so disappointing. I would've been happy to rate this product 5 stars if they would fix the leaky bottles.

I normally don't have any problems with pimples and blemishes. But After this summer, there were many closed comedones and white heads on my forehead. And I just couldn't get rid of them with my daily skincare routine. And this product worked its wonder and made my skin smooth again!!!!!Thank you!!!!

Effective but Pricey
By Princess
from British Columbia
I like that this product is so lightweight. It feels like a toner. It's effective and my skin is brighter since using it. What I don't like is the price. Considering how fast I go through it, it seems a bit pricey. Also, I would prefer if it came in a choice between this and a bigger size at a better deal.
LOVE this!

This is my holy grail product. Been using it since it first came out. This version is preferable to the other BHAs Paula makes because it leaves absolutely no film or slip behind. Can use under makeup or at night.
Helps with summer breakouts
By Pat from CT
from Groton, CT
After two months of protracted heat waves and high humidity, I realized my lower T-zone and inner cheeks were a mass of red bumps and disgusting blackheads. Mind you, these go very well with my fine lines, wrinkles and easily reddened sensitive skin - NOT! :-/ In desperation I used some products from the drugstore from the "rip out blackheads" brand and all that did was cause my poor face to rebel by turning red, blotchy and to produce even more oil in the T-zone.Then I did what I should have done - researched products at Paula's Choice. My usual routine involves the Resist line for dry skin with AHA, but the breakouts and blackheads had to go. I ordered samples of the CLEAR cleanser and this product. I've had luck with salicylic acid in the past and it seemed like the right track. After the *first time* using both products the swelling, redness and stinging in my face went down. The red bumps began diminishing, but the stubborn blackheads still hung around. A PC representative recommended I add the Resist Daily Pore Refining Treatment 2% BHA. I'm using the cleanser twice daily, the pore refining BHA in the AM and the CLEAR salicyclic lotion in the PM, followed by serum and moisturizer. With every use of these products things are on the upswing. Thank you, Paula!

Re: Interesting subject..
Essam Badawi
Aristotle identified three forms of knowledge:
Episteme = universally valid scientific knowledge,
Techne = skill-based technical know-how, and
Phronesis = a true and reasoned state of capacity to act with regard to the things that are good or bad for man.
If episteme is 'know-why', and
techne is 'know-how',
then phronesis is know-what-should-be-done.
Example: because no universal notion of a good car exists, episteme cannot answer the question "What is a good car?" That will depend on who is using the car and why, and it will change over time. Techne is knowing how to make a car well; phronesis is knowing both what a good car is and how to build it. Thus phronesis enables managers to determine what is good in specific times and situations and to undertake the best actions at those times to serve the common good.

How Is Apple's Closed Nature Fostering Innovation?
Everything that Apple has developed since 2000 has led to something groundbreaking. The iPod turned the MP3 player market into an unstoppable force, the original iMac refdefined the all-in-one PC, Mac OS X gave Vista and Windows 7 something to seriously think about and the iPhone is still widely viewed as the best phone on the planet, bar none. It's easy to say that "Apple" and "innovation" go hand in hand, but what's crazy is that Apple is easily one of the most closed companies in technology today.
Apple never shows off products before they're announced, ever. Apple never shows their face at trade shows, ever. Apple won't allow their employees or partners to talk about unannounced products, ever. Apple keeps everything close to the chest, which makes you wonder how such innovation has managed to grow under such a heavy coat of suppression. Somehow, things like the App Store have encouraged developers to work through Apple's wild rules and still participate, and to this day no other App Store even comes close to offering the varying that Apple can.
Many are speculating that a Tablet of some sort is coming on Wednesday, and one can only assume that a Tablet-based App Store will also be announced. Developers will undoubtedly scramble to create new software before the device launches, but the question is "why?" We think that the secrecy actually acts to increase the buzz surrounding an Apple product, and that makes people excited to get involved once it's finally unwrapped. Still, we agree that Apple could be holding the power a bit too closely, and if someone like Google comes around with an equally exciting solution, that stock value may finally find its ceiling. Of course, Android has yet to knock Apple out, so who knows--maybe Apple's biggest fault really is their biggest benefit?
