Please Note. This page contains Information, People, Place, Things ETC. That are not in the Combine Universe.
- "Squibs. They'll sell you a bucket of air if you let them, and keep the bucket."
- — Han Solo
Squibs were a sentient species from Skor II known for collecting knickknacks and for their love of trading and haggling. Adult Squibs had humanoid bodies averaging a meter in height. They were covered in colorful fur and had rodent-like faces with large eyes. Squibs tasted objects by rubbing them over their fur. They were gregarious, insatiably curious, and obsessed with haggling and deal-making. It was said that the easiest way to lure Squibs into a trap was to offer them a deal of some kind.
Skor II was rich in natural resources, but these were not evenly distributed. Thus, the Squibs developed into nomads and traders. Over time, they developed a complex system of trade and barter. After their discovery by the galaxy at large, the Squibs became successful galactic scavengers and fierce rivals to the Ugors. During the Separatist Crisis, the Squib king, Ebareebaveebeedee, was a vocal supporter of the Galactic Republic. Later, after the rise of the Galactic Empire, Ebareebaveebeedee struck an agreement with the Empire to place Squibs on board Imperial spacecraft as laborers. These Squibs, whom the Imperials considered slaves, provided Squib salvage vessels with the locations of Imperial dumpsites. The Squibs later signed a pact of mutual support with the Rebel Alliance.
Squibs were small, humanoid mammals who ranged from 0.8 to 1.2 meters in height. Squibs had pink skin covered in fur, the color of which may have been anything from white to gray, bright blue to dark red. This fur served as an important olfactory organ, allowing a Squib to determine much about something simply by rubbing against it. This led to a common Squib greeting, rubbing a person's palm across the Squib's cheek fur. As Squibs often wore gloves, this conveyed more information than a simple handshake. Squibs almost universally wore clothing and footwear, but individuals usually left a great deal of fur exposed to facilitate this olfactory sense.
Squib eyes varied in color from yellow to bright red, with shade variations making some Squibs appear to have eyes of deep brown. The eyes were large in relation to the skull and located on the sides of the head. The Squibs' tufted ears were big and pointed and stuck up from the head; Squibs could move them to change the direction in which they were listening. Squibs had short, pointed muzzles that terminated in black noses. Their mouths were full of sharp teeth, which Squibs used when necessary to defend themselves. The skin of the mouth was flexible, allowing Squibs to store items in their cheeks. The species had nimble, five-fingered hands and five toes on each foot.
A young Squib was called a fuzzling. Sexual maturity occurred at 13 standard years. Squib life expectancy was about 65 standard years.
Evolution and early civilizationEdit
The Squibs evolved on Skor II, a small, dense world in the Squab system. The planet possessed a diverse ecosystem and varied terrain, and its vast resources were spread far across its surface. Early Squibs were thus forced to travel from region to region to find necessities. Accumulating material goods became an ingrained part of the Squib psyche, leading some groups to settle and form small villages. Those Squibs who maintained their nomadic lifestyle took on the added role of merchants, trading foreign goods with their sedentary brethren. Bargaining became a deep-seated part of Squib culture.
Over the millennia, the Squibs advanced to the point of mass production and developed a peaceful, species-wide government. They came into contact with the galaxy at large when a Dorcin trader discovered their world. After a spirited round of negotiations, the Dorcin gained mineral rights to some frigid wastes, while the Squibs learned the intricacies of starship technology.
Into the GalaxyEdit
As they became more involved in galactic affairs, the Squibs' natural curiosity and mastery of haggling helped them carve out a niche as interstellar garbage collectors and scavengers. Squibs became common sights anywhere garbage was found. Squib companies signed contracts to haul garbage away from populous worlds while other Squib groups refurbished the junk for resale. Some Squibs opened second-hand shops in spaceport towns. Meanwhile, the Squibs came to be commonly regarded as no more than a race of laborers, an idea that persisted well into the New Jedi Order era. The major exception was a popular series of children's stories that focusing on a roguish Squib Jedi; rumor held that the tales were based on a real individual. This is possible, as another Squib Jedi trained with Jedi Master Luke Skywalker on Coruscant many years later.
Other Squibs took to a life as spacers. Some passively scanned deep space for any interesting junk floating by, while others learned to track vessels to reclaim their garbage dumps. Squib traders traveled to even the most remote and secretive of locations to sell their reconditioned goods, prompting many top-secret installations to completely rethink their security procedures after a surprise visit. Skor II became a prosperous trade world with its capital at Metrobig City.
Meanwhile, the Squibs' activities put them in direct competition with another scavenger species: the Ugors. Over time, the species developed an intense rivalry and animosity toward one another, practically to the point of war. The Squibs came to regard the Ugors as their hereditary foes, and the Squibs were de facto demons in the Ugors' religion of trash worship.
Reign of EbareebaveebeedeeEdit
- "Hail, conquerors of heroes! Much good loot has been gifted to us due to thoughtful vandalism by you of Ugorian church marines. Bring now the quest-object to us and we will keep short end of deal."
- — King Ebareebaveebeedee
Sometime before 40 BBY, a Squib named Ebareebaveebeedee became king of the Squib government. His reign proved something of a golden age. Ebareebaveebeedee enthusiastically supported the Republic during the Separatist Crisis, famously declaring that his people were "going nowhere" and that the Jedi were "koovy". In Month 15 of 20 BBY, Skor II was seized by the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Jedi Master Mace Windu led Republican forces to recapture the world in the Battle of Skor II. Ebareebaveebeedee erected a bronzium statue in honor of the Jedi and named him "Big Time Hero of beyond-Squib Eliteness".
Later, under Ebareebaveebeedee's initiative, the Squibs struck a deal with the Galactic Empire whereby Squibs would be placed on Imperial ships as garbage laborers. In Imperial eyes, these Squibs were mere slaves, although it was understood that they would be allowed to keep any baubles that caught their eye. The true purpose of the arrangement, however, was to allow the imbedded Squibs to communicate the coordinates of Imperial garbage dumps to the Squib Reclamation Fleet.
At first, Ebareebaveebeedee largely kept the Squibs out of the Galactic Civil War, and the Squibs traded and dealt with members of both sides. Alliance and Imperial intelligence agents sometimes tried to track Squib vessels to the bases of their enemies, but the Squibs made sure to secure the secrecy of their markets.
However, sometime after the Battle of Yavin, Ebareebaveebeedee saw an opportunity that he could not pass up. Squib intelligence indicated that the Ugors had obtained a powerful gravity-well projector and were using it to bring order to their junk-filled Paradise system. When the king encountered a group of Rebel Alliance operatives who were interested in trading for some information, he agreed to supply it—provided that they fetch the projector in payment. The Rebels, accompanied by a Squib diplomat named Spilferithimus-narlamos, succeeded in their quest, and the removal of the projector threw the Paradise system back into disarray. In a gesture of thanks, Ebareebaveebeedee declared a pact of mutual support between the Squib species and the Rebel Alliance.
Culture and behaviorEdit
- "Alien scavengers, identify selfs or face quick obliteration by awesome Squib weaponry, you bet."
- — Squib comm officer on Thrifty
Squibs were cheerful, gregarious, and overconfident to the point of egotism. They were friendly and unintimidating, making them quite likable—at first. Over time, Squib acquaintances could grow to regard the beings as slightly annoying to downright obnoxious.
Squibs were inherently curious. They handled anything that interested them, usually by rubbing it against their fur with little forethought as to whether doing so might be dangerous or harmful. Squib curiosity and propensity for haggling also made them unabashed pack rats. Their clothing was typically modified to include numerous pockets and pouches, all of which could be stuffed with any odds and ends that caught their eye. A Squib could never tell when one of these items might be useful in making a deal.
Cheerful overconfidence was another definitive Squib trait. When confronted with a threat, the typical Squib response was not to fight or flee, but to bluff and bluster. This was particularly true when the Squibs were out of sight, as when communicating from a Squib spacecraft.
Another Squib characteristic was a gift for resourcefulness and improvisation. This manifest itself both in Squib technology but also in their art. Squib artists utilized found objects (i.e., garbage), which they organized into intricate and beautiful mosaics. For example, the audience chamber on the Squib Momship Thrifty featured murals of Squib craft, the collapse of the Paradise system, and the Rebel Alliance heroes who brought it about.
- "Got nice go-go vehicle here, pal, still work good, sorta, but it's a classic. Trade for new talkie-talk shiny man. Good deal. Wanna trade?"
- — Unknown Squib
- "Us? Sell out a business partner? What do you take us for, Ugors?"
- — Sligh
To Squibs, bargaining was an art form. Some Squibs took up special training in the Mystic Martial Arts of Squib Combats and Transactions. The highest compliment one could pay a Squib was that he or she bargained well. In short, haggling was superior to all other impulses, and the Squibs were experts at it.
Squib bargaining followed three major rules: 1) If something was free, it was a good deal. 2) Bargaining was the highest form of communication. 3) When dealing with Ugors, all bets were off. In addition, Squibs followed a few basic principles when trading. First, Squibs preferred to bargain face-to-face. This allowed them to play up their small, unassuming appearance to best effect and to make the opponent feel overconfident. Next, by tradition, the party who wanted something (usually the Squib) had to make the first offer. If Squibs smelled a potential deal, they could be insistent on this, refusing to talk or answer questions until the person needing the information made an offer for it. Persistence—to the point of pestering—was another favored tactic. Squibs continually asked for things that the owner had expressed no interest in parting with, hoping that the owner would eventually give in out of sheer annoyance.
The haggling process itself was more highly valued to the Squibs than any spoils obtained. In Squib reckoning, a good bout of bargaining would let both sides think they were getting the better deal at least once during the negotiations. One key to Squib success at trading was to involve as much complexity and as many individuals as possible. Squibs preferred to trade for things whose values were are not easily comparable, thus preventing anyone from really knowing who got the best deal. Anything could be brought to the bargaining table, including a Squib's own offspring. By involving several partners, any losses were spread out among all involved (except the Squibs), thus decreasing the chances that any one party felt anything more than mildly ripped off.
Squib ideas of value differed from those of most other beings. Worth was determined by something called kRR value, a concept not easily translatable. In general terms, the more intricate a deal was, the better, and a confused customer was a good customer. Although the negotiations themselves could be quite intricate, the terms of the deal could preferably be completed quickly and without needing lengthy payments or interest (considered more the Ugors' style). Gaining a great quantity of something or obtaining something novel was highly desirable.
Finally, to a Squib, a deal was a binding oath. Squibs went to great lengths to ensure their deals went through, and they were incredibly loyal to their business partners. Squibs were known to accompany partners for extended periods, helping them complete their end of the bargain and even saving their lives if need be. Nevertheless, Squib interpretations of business arrangements could be quite fluid and subjective. Many partners in Squib deals later found themselves wondering whether the Squibs were still adhering to the terms of the agreement at all. Squibs genuinely shunned deception and theft, however, so any apparent reneging on their part was often perfectly justified in the Squibs' mind. For example, Squibs believed that cheating was perfectly acceptable as long as they did not lie outright. Despite this flightiness, many beings knew Squibs to be mostly honest beings; in fact, Morseerians often preferred dealing with Squibs to other species.
Squibs spoke a language called Squibbian, for which they had developed a script. The language developed from Old High Squibbian, a tongue that remained in use as a means for Squib spies to convey the coordinates of trash dumps. The Squib Trade Language was another secret tongue, used to make deals without others knowing what the Squibs were saying. Squib names tended to be rather long, although the beings usually adopted a shorter form of the name for use with offworlders.
In addition, most Squibs spoke Galactic Basic, although their command of the language was usually less than perfect, and few Squibs could read and write the language. Squibs often had thick accents, and their knowledge of idiom could be quite limited. This means that when Squibs spoke it was often difficult to determine what information they were trying to convey. When bargaining, however, Squibs were very careful to explain terms clearly. Trading with Squibs was a sure method of getting information out of them.
- "So, dealers with abridged decks, we of lofty Squib greet you in name of universal buddy-buddyness, irrespectful of differences in station, no less."
- — King Ebareebaveebeedee
The Squibs were ruled by the Squib Polyanarchy and the Squib Merchandising Consortium (SMC)—both terms may in fact refer to the same organization. The government was a species-wide company that held important contracts with galactic and planetary governments to collect, refurbish, and resell refuse. Every Squib was by birth an SMC employee, although the degree of involvement varied. At one extreme were individuals such as Squib diplomats (recognizable by the ceremonial Fizz-Pop Cap (with foil cluster)); at the other were independent traders. The Squib leader and head of the SMC was known as the Illustrious Chieftain of Junkyards and the Squib king. Beginning c. 40 BBY, this individual was a blue-furred Squib named Ebareebaveebeedee. The Polyanarchy was historically apolitical, although it did support the Republic during the Separatist Crisis and sign a pact of mutual support with the Rebel Alliance sometime after the Battle of Yavin.
One major arm of the SMC and a major Squib employer was the Squib Reclamation Fleet (SRF). This consisted of tapered, needle-like, 50-meter spacecraft of Squib design known as needle ships, each crewed by 20 individuals. These vessels followed capital ships from one jump point to the next, collecting garbage dumps along the way. During the Imperial era, this involved a crafty intelligence network consisting of Squibs working on Imperial ships as garbage collectors. Simple slaves in the eyes of the Imperials, these individuals were spies to the SRF, as they conveyed the coordinates of each dump and let them know about any trade opportunities in the area. The Reclamation Fleet was itself often shadowed by Ugor vessels, which would swoop in, attack any Squib craft, and try to steal as much salvage as possible.
The fleet flagship was for many years the Wholesale. Another important vessel was the Momship, the personal vessel of the Squib king. Under Ebareebaveebeedee, this was the Thrifty. Other Squibs traveled in tramp freighters or Squib scout ships, small craft armed with only a single tractor beam.
- "Dibs on the big pieces! Eat hot trash, Ugorian slime! Death to all single-minded fanatics of Ugor!"
- — Squib crew of Thrifty
Squib companies, such as Fegegrish Heavy Industrials, sold personal gear across the Galaxy. The garbage grabber was one such device, a sort of pole with a claw at the end used for gathering refuse from hard-to-reach places. The item was very popular among Squibs, and many of them wore one strapped across their back as a matter of habit. The Squib battering ram was another product; the shoulder-mounted device weakened obstructions at the molecular level.
Squibs excelled at tractor beam technology. Their tractor beams rivaled the best in the galaxy, and Squib spacers became experts at using the devices. Squib needle ships, for example, had no weaponry or shields, instead relying on 10 tractor beams for defense. If attacked, the crew simply erected a wall of garbage around the ship with quick and precise tractor-beam manipulation. To fight back, the crew hurled pieces of refuse using the same beams. Squib engineers developed whole weapons based on the technology. These tensor weapons attacked with invisible (but loud) compressed waves of tractor energy, thus disrupting the target's cells—highly useful against the unicellular Ugors. Amberlandrax Armaments marketed a rifle of this design. Still, Squibs were not warlike beings and preferred to flee when bluffing failed to get them out of a potentially dangerous situation.
Behind the scenesEdit
The Squibs were introduced by Brad Freeman in his West End Games adventure Scavenger Hunt, published in 1989. The adventure sends a group of Rebel characters after the Imperial ship Elusive, the location of which is known only to Ebareebaveebeedee and his Squibs. Later that year, Troy Denning gave the species a more complete write-up in Galaxy Guide 4: Alien Races. The book indicates that they were intended as a sort of comic-relief species that, unlike Ewoks, could be encountered anywhere in the galaxy and could be expected to interact with characters on a more technologically level playing field. West End's Squibs are more dexterous than the average species, but they are slightly restricted in intelligence, strength, and technical aptitude. The Wizards of the Coast version of the species, detailed in both Alien Anthology (2001) and Ultimate Alien Anthology (2003), also gives them high agility, now coupled with lower-than-average common sense and perceptive abilities.
The species seems to be a favorite of Denning's, who has featured Squib characters in three novels and one short story. Pablo Hidalgo, another Star Wars author, has also expressed an affection for the Squibs. He played a Squib character named Smileredon-Verdont in a personal campaign of Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game. This character now features as a regular in his Rookies: Rendezvous webstrip. Hidalgo also chronicled the Battle of Skor II, which explains the odd name choice of "Mace Windu" for a Squib character in Galaxy Guide 7: Mos Eisley. Now, it seems, the Squib (whose full name is Macemillian-winduarté), was simply named for the Jedi hero who saved his home planet.

Tires are an important part of your vehicle. After all, they're its sole connection to the road. Your engine spins the wheels, and your tires transfer that power to the road. That's why it's so important to make sure that your tires are in good shape.
As you drive along, your tires slowly start to wear down. Healthy tires ensure that you're always in control on the road, in any weather condition, and they help you stop and start safely. As the tread starts to wear away, you begin to lose traction. That's more than just inconvenient; it's unsafe.
So, how can you tell if your tires are in good shape? One easy tire test is the penny test. Simply insert a penny into a tread groove on your tire. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tires are worn down, and need to be replaced. Try inserting the tire into several different parts of your tire; you shouldn't be able to see all of his head on any part.
At Inskeep Ford, we're here to help you keep your Ford running its best, and that includes its tires. We give you plenty of tire advice, and we even make it easy to buy new tires. If you have any tire-related questions, give us a call at (888) 233-5826, or come visit us here in Greenfield, IN. We can't wait to help you out.

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan began a special joint session of its parliament Tuesday to discuss a possible response a day after rival India revoked the special status for Kashmir, the disputed Himalayan region both the countries claim in its entirety.
New Delhi added a special provision to its constitution in 1949 providing autonomy to Jammu and Kashmir, allowing the region to have its own constitution, a separate flag and independence over all matters except foreign affairs, defense and communications. India's Hindu nationalist-led government scrapped the constitutional provision on Monday.
Prime Minister Khan told an emergency session of the Pakistani parliament the Indian action would intensify the ongoing insurgency in the majority-Muslim Kashmir, and the ensuing tensions could trigger another war between the two nuclear-armed nations.
The Pakistani leader said the conflict could eventually lead to an exchange of nuclear weapons, and Khan asked whether the world is prepared for the worst.
"No one will win that war. Everyone will lose that war. It will have implications for the entire world … I am not indulging in a nuclear blackmail. Hope for the best, be prepared for the worst. This is why I am appealing to the world to intervene and stop India from blatantly tearing apart international laws," said the prime minister.

Hi, jeris.
Yes, that is the log I asked.
About Adobe: Yes, you can use the Adobe Acrobat Reader. It's a free reader for PDF files. But if you want to do more than that, and need the Pro version, it's not free. https://acrobat.adob...crobat-pro.html
I'll be back to you as soon as possible.

Hi. jeris.
I noticed that your hard disk space is around 6GB. This could be a problem, not only because your computer will not function properly, but also because you will not be able to update its operating system. So, let's do some things that may help you free some space.
A. Stop Google Drive Sync at start-up
- Click Backup & Sync in your Taskbar/Notification area using Cloud icon.
- Click the 3 dots to open Settings.
- Click the Preferences option - usually the 5th one down from the top.
- Once the Preferences menu pop appears, select the Settings section located on the right side of the popup.
- The section checkbox in the Settings section should be for Open Backup & Sync on system startup. If you clear that check box, then save the changes, then reboot your computer, Backup & Sync should no longer automatically start up with your computer.
You can also check i the Google drive sync is enabled at start up if you do the following:
- Right click anywhere on your Taskbar and choose Task Manager.
- If you don't see the tab Start-up, click More Details.
- Choose the Start-up tab.
- Check in the list if Google Drive Sync is enabled. If yes, click on it and choose Disable.
B. Disc cleanup
1. Press the Windows icon on your keyboard, together with the letter R.
2. Type in the blank area cleanmgr and then press OK.
3. Select Drive C and press OK.
4. Select everything you don't need in the list that will appear. Actually, you can select everything there, but be careful if you need some files in the Downloads folder.
5. Press the button Clean up system files and wait a bit.
6. Again, select everything you don't need, including old Windows installations, if any.
7. Select the tab More options.
8. Under the title System Restore and Shadow Copies, press Clean up.
9. Press Delete and OK if you are asked to.
10. Wait some time (depending of the items that are deleted).
11. Make a restart when the process is finished.
C. Provide fresh FRST logs
- Double-click on the FRST icon to run it, as you did before. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
- Press Scan button and wait for a while.
- The scanner will produced two logs on your Desktop: FRST.txt and Addition.txt.
- Please copy and paste the content of these two logs in your next reply.

Mapping and Path Planning in Complex Environments: An Obstacle Avoidance Approach for an Unmanned Helicopter
Scheduled for presentation during the Regular Sessions "Aerial Robotics II" (TuA201), Tuesday, May 10, 2011,
10:05−10:20, Room 3B
2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, May 9-13, 2011, Shanghai International Conference Center, Shanghai, China
This information is tentative and subject to change. Compiled on April 2, 2020
This paper presents an obstacle avoidance method that is performed with an unmanned helicopter. The approach begins with a mapping step where information from sensor data about previously unknown dangers is extracted into an occupancy grid and eventually converted into a polygonal 3D world model. This continuously updating map is used by a path planner that generates and updates a 3D trajectory guiding the vehicle through safe passages around the detected objects. The algorithms are generic but optimized for unmanned aircraft and a stereo camera as the environmental sensor. Computation is fully executed on board so that a ground control station is only needed for supervision. With successful obstacle detection and avoidance flight tests, the paper shows the qualification of the presented method under real operational conditions.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – official team release — USF2000 photo —
Cape Motorsports with Wayne Taylor Racing has announced that Parker Thompson has joined the team to compete in the 2016 Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship powered by Mazda.
The young driver from Red Deer, Alberta, had a successful rookie USF2000 season in 2015. Thompson posted seven top-five finishes on his way to finishing fifth overall in the championship. The 17-year-old will drive the No. 2 next season.
"I am extremely pleased to be named a Cape Motorsports driver for the 2016 season in USF2000," said Thompson. "In the past, they have been a dominant force in the Mazda Road to Indy program, and I am looking to carry that reputation into the 2016 Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda. The Cape boys know what they are doing, but what sets them apart is their will to win. Their work ethic off the track is what has granted them so much success on track, and I will be using that philosophy in my 2016 championship campaign. I am extremely excited and very eager for the new season with the Cape brothers and their championship operation."
Cape Motorsports has produced the last five consecutive series champions (2011-2015). In 2011, Finnish pilot Petri Suvanto scored the USF2000 title for the team in the second official year of the new MRTI ladder. Matthew Brabham edged Spencer Pigot for the championship in 2012, then the Capes backed up these successes with title runs for Scott Hargrove and Florian Latorre in 2013 and 2014. This past season, Nico Jamin keep the streak alive for France, as he dominated the year to secure the title at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in September.
"Parker is a great addition to the team," offered team owners Dominic and Nicholas Cape. "He had a great rookie season, and we know he can win races in 2016. We are excited to have him on the team."

I love it when a film's main character is an eccentric nutjob. I don't mean a character remembered for an over the top performance by an actor, like a Captain Jack Sparrow or even the Joker. I'm referring to characters who have quirks so wild they defy typical Hollywood tropes. Take the main character in 1972's Stanley, Tim Ochopee (veteran soap opera actor Chris Robinson).
Tim is a Seminole who was drafted to go off and fight in Vietnam. He harbors massive amounts of resentment, all justified, towards the government of the white man. His response to this, and PTSD, has been to pull back from society, moving to a lonely cabin in the Everglades. But, isolation was not enough for Tim. He has a fascination with snakes. He loves them and considers himself their protector. His two favorites are the titular Stanley and Hazel, a pair of rattlesnakes that he is breeding. He croons to them. He pets them lovingly. He takes Stanley with him everywhere, and gives Stanley orders like he's a dog and not a reptile. He thinks of Stanley and Hazel as husband and wife. All meaning Tim gets from his life, he derives from his snakes. And, he will kill for them. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: Stanley"
Shitty Movie Sundays: Blood Mania
There is some sleaze to Blood Mania, the 1970 neo-noir drive-in flick from purveyors of shit Crown International Pictures. Tony Crechales and Toby Sacher were responsible for the screenplay, while Robert Vincent O'Neil sat in the director's chair.
The plot is straight out of an old issue of Crime SuspenStories. A wealthy, aging doctor, Ridgeley Waterman, played by Eric Allison, is on his deathbed. He is being cared for by one of the partners in his practice, Dr. Cooper (Peter Carpenter, who is also credited with this film's story). Cooper is being blackmailed by some smarmy gangster played by Arell Blanton. The blackmailer has concrete evidence that Cooper performed abortions while he was in medical school. This film being from 1970, abortions were a crime, and Cooper's life and career would be ruined if the authorities were to find out. All it will cost Cooper to make this threat go away is fifty thousand dollars, which is much more than Cooper can raise. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: Blood Mania"
Shitty Movie Sundays: The Amazing Transparent Man
58 minutes! Are you kidding me? We here at Missile Test enjoy filmmakers who show brevity in their storytelling, but a 58-minute running time is a little bit extreme. Perhaps director Edgar G. Ulmer should be praised. After all, most shitty movie directors of the era would have just thrown in stock footage or long establishing shots to pad the running time. But not Ulmer. His film is so Spartan that viewers will even notice some scenes with dialogue were trimmed. I applaud Mr. Ulmer for trying not to waste anyone's time, but still…58 minutes!
Released in 1960, The Amazing Transparent Man is a bizarre combination of film noir and science fiction. The film follows Joey Faust (Douglas Kennedy), a career bank robber who is serving a long stretch in a penitentiary. As the film opens, we see Faust escape from prison, aided in his escape by Laura Matson (Marguerite Chapman). Faust doesn't know why the escape was arranged, only that he's being taken to a home in the countryside. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: The Amazing Transparent Man"

Shitty Movie Sundays: The Thirsty Dead
What The Thirsty Dead is not: a film about zombies, or vampires, or other undead creatures preying on the innocent and spilling buckets of fake blood. There is no gore, and no more than a few dollops of blood. Despite this being from 1974, the wheelhouse for drive-in movie exploitation, there is no nudity, gratuitous or otherwise, despite four main cast members being young(-ish), buxom(-ish) ladies.
What The Thirsty Dead is: a film with a misleading title. That happens often with shitty movies. It's a crime compounded by the fact that not only is this movie not about thirsty dead things, it's not even a horror flick. There are horror elements to the plot, but there just isn't enough for this film to cross over into that hallowed genre. This is just exploitation schlock, done poorly. Exploitation films are supposed to be downright sleazy — a guilty pleasure that will get one strange looks from the ideological purity police. This film flirts with sleaze, but never commits. Seriously, what kind of exploitation film needs zero edits to be suitable for commercial television? Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: The Thirsty Dead"
Shitty Movie Sundays: Shanghai Fortress
How do I know China is a superpower? Besides the massive economy, the massive military, the massive population, and China's massive effect on world politics? It's because the Chinese are now making alien invasion movies where they save the day. That is when a nation truly arrives at the forefront — when they can make jingoistic popcorn cinema of the world-saving variety. And, like most American forays into such material, it stinks.
Shanghai Fortress is an adaptation of the sci-fi novel by Jiang Nan, wherein, in the near future, a new energy source called Xianteng has been brought back to Earth by astronauts. It's a self-replicating energy source, and clean. A new day has dawned for humanity. Except, some aliens get wind of us having Xianteng, and a gigantic spaceship arrives, Independence Day-style, to rain hell on the earth. After five years of conflict, only one major city remains: Shanghai. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: Shanghai Fortress"

Shitty Movie Sundays: They Saved Hitler's Brain, aka Madmen of Mandoras
They Saved Hitler's Brain, the 1968 sci-fi dog from director David Bradley, has one of the more unique stories in shitty movie history. It was originally released in 1963 as Madmen of Mandoras. A few years later, the owners of the film wanted to sell it for television distribution, but the original running time of 74 minutes was too short. Their solution? Hire some UCLA film students to shoot a new first act, featuring none of the cast from the original, with only a tangential connection to the main plot. These new scenes are an anachronism, looking completely out of place, because they are. The two main characters in these scenes, one of which isn't even listed in the cast, are both killed off before the movie switches to its original content. These new scenes are a disaster in every way, from plot, dialogue, to acting. Just this part of the film is enough to make this among the worst films I've ever seen, and there's still a whole hour of movie to get through. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: They Saved Hitler's Brain, aka Madmen of Mandoras"
What a disappointing movie. With a title like Venomous and a poster featuring a giant snake's head on the attack, I was expecting this direct-to-video cheapie to be a ripoff of Anaconda. Instead, it's a ripoff of Outbreak. All the epidemiological plot points are there, and every character has an analogue. But, Treat Williams is no Dustin Hoffman, Mary Page Keller is no Rene Russo, Hannes Jaenicke is no Kevin Spacey (are we allowed to like his acting again, yet?), and Geoff Pierson is no frickin' Morgan Freeman.
From way back in 2001, Venomous is the story of a viral outbreak in the small town of Santa Mira Springs, California, played by the Blue Cloud Movie Ranch. The virus in question is a bio-engineered disease that the US government introduced into rattlesnakes. After a terrorist attack on the lab during an introductory scene, the snakes escape into the wild. That would be that, except that a series of earthquakes in Santa Mira have caused the snakes to flee from their underground hiding places. Townsfolk are bitten, and it is discovered that antivenin isn't saving their lives. A closer look at the blood of the victims reveals the presence of the virus. That's when this thing becomes an Outbreak ripoff. Continue reading "Shitty Movie Sundays: Venomous"

Check out our local's guide to NYC shopping and make sure you find exactly what you're looking for during your Big Apple shopping spree.

Department stores were once the premier places to shop, and New York City has plenty of shopping meccas that retain its old-fashioned elegance and class. If you're looking for high-end labels, stellar service, and a wide selection, head to the iconic destinations, such as Barneys New York, Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, and Saks Fifth Avenue.
Browse the Designer Boutiques
As the golden age of department stores started to decline, more and more boutiques began popping up around the city. Nowadays, some of New York's most popular and beautiful neighborhoods are the best places to shop. Not only will you find a variety of stores to browse, from bohemian gems to haute couture flagships, but you'll enjoy the city as you stroll. Start in SoHo (KITH, Supreme, Alexander Wang), pass through the Meatpacking District (Madewell, Hermès, Anthropologie), and finish along elegant Fifth Avenue (Tiffany & Co., Mikimoto, Louis Vuitton, Prada).
Find a Bargain or Two
You can spend a fortune shopping in this city, but there are still bargains to be found if you know where to look. As long as you're willing to navigate the lines and crowds, sample sales promise serious discounts — keep an eye on The Stylish City and Chicmi for your favorite designers. The city also has some fantastic vintage stores (Beacon's Closet, Round Two, 10 ft Single by Stella Dallas) and flea markets (Artists & Fleas), where you're sure to discover unique finds at great prices.

2020 The Year of the Metal Rat
Last month (January 25, 2020) began the year of the Rat. It will be a time of plenty, bringing abundance and good fortune to all. Those born in Rat years are clever, humorous, creative, curious, witty, optimistic, yet frugal. Rat individuals are very observant, quick to take action and popular in social circles. They are very instinctive and can adapt easily to different environments and survive against the odds. Rats are nocturnal animals so they often enjoy working at night and staying up until the wee hours, for that is Rat's creative time.
2020 will be a powerful year and all decisions made during this year will influence the next 12 years, since Rat is the first in the 12-year cycle of Chinese zodiac signs. Therefore, it is important to get clear about your goals, passions and aspirations. This can be an excellent time to start a business, buy property and accumulate wealth. All ventures begun in Rat years will prosper if well prepared.
Happy Chinese New Year
February 16, 2018 begins the Chinese New Year. This year will be the Year of the Earth Dog. Chinese astrology is based on a 12-year cycle, where each year is represented by a different animal- so some people are born in the Year of the Dog, some born in the Year of the Rabbit and so on. There are 12 animals in a cycle and the cycle repeats every 12 years.
It is believed that each animal has particular characteristics that will influence your life, relationships, business, and personality. To find which animal corresponds to your birth year, go here:
People born during the Year of Dog are considered sincere, loyal, honest, compassionate and dedicated to justice. Dogs can have strong opinions, are eager to help others and love children.
The five elements (earth, fire, water, metal and wood) also influence Chinese astrology. 2018 is the Year of the Earth Dog, so Earth energy is about getting grounded, creating security, and finding your balance as you move forward. This is a good year to go within for contemplation, so meditation can help. Earth energy moves slow, so if you feel you aren't making a lot of progress remember that the foundation you lay this year will benefit you in years to come.
Do I Tip My Acupuncturist?
Do I tip my acupuncturist?
This can be a gray area since some acupuncturists work in spa-like settings where it is expected that you tip for most everything. I do have patients who will ask me if they are supposed to tip and I tell them the same thing, "No."
I do not expect my patients to tip me. If you pay for your treatment with a credit or debit card, you will see an option to leave a tip when you sign during the transaction. This is built into the Point of Sale software that allows me to accept credit card payments and I'm not able to change it. I always tell patients to please ignore it. Tips are not necessary. I find it kind when patients try to tip me, but I tell them to keep their money and go buy a cup of coffee or something special for themselves instead.
As one patient put it so nicely, "I do not tip my doctor or medical professional so I don't tip for acupuncture." Well stated.
What I'm Loving This Winter...
What I'm loving this winter…
This tube of hemp oil made by Equinox Botanicals. It's called Hemp Aid. I picked it up last month because I was curious and I've been hearing a lot of good things about hemp oil, but what I love the most about this is that it comes in a stick. Excellent! No greasy mess.
My fingertips have a tendency to crack and split due to all this cold weather and hand-washing during cold and flu season. I hate it! I rub this hemp oil stick over my fingertips a few times a day (and especially at bedtime) and voila! healed, smooth fingertips. I also use it on cuts, scratches (I have two kittens) and rough patches of skin or eczema. I am so impressed with the fast results. I'll definitely buy more and I love that it's made in SE Ohio.
So check out Equinox Botanicals and purchase the Hemp Aid here.

ISM PN 1.1 Saddle Black, 110mm
ISM PN 1.1 Saddle Black,
The restrictions set by governing bodies on saddle placement has led to a cohort of time trialists and triathletes spending countless miles perched precariously and uncomfortably on the narrow tip of traditional road saddles, trying to eek the most power out of a flat time trial course. This position is fast, but may be putting unhealthy pressure on sensitive nerves and tissues. ISM addresses this issue with the ISM PN 1. 1 Saddle and its signature split fork, stocky-nosed design. The PN 1. 1 may look a bit alien next to a regular saddle, but it's built for comfort and function in a time trial position. Based on ISM's line-topping Attack saddle, the PN 1. 1 features a blunted nose and cutout split to provide a more supportive platform than traditional pointy-nosed saddles, even when you're scooted up on the rivet to squeeze out those few extra watts. This saddle provides a bit more padding than the Attack to counter the minimal chamois found in most triathlon-specifc shorts, and the unique split design reduces pressure on soft tissue and nerves to increase overall comfort and reduce numbness. The ISM PN 1. 1 features an extra narrow, 110mm rear width to provide riders of all types with a variety of positioning options out on the road. This profile allows you to scoot back on the ...

VeloChampion Double Water Bottle Cage Mount - Alloy Black for Cycling Triathlon Bike
VeloChampion Double Water Bottle Cage Mount - Alloy
The VELOCHAMPION Double Cage Mount accepts a regular bottle cage and adapts to almost any desired height or angle. It is very secure once mounted properly and does not move or come loose. It is made entirely of metal, so it is very sturdy and durable. Hence it is capable of holding two fully loaded water bottles. It's a great way to mount extra water bottles to your bike and it's far easier to reach the water bottle when it is behind you. The clamps that hold the mount to the saddle rails move independently so if the rails of your saddle are angled at the end then it will still work for you. You will like the benefit of being able to independently angle each bottle. An easy to install product and very good value for the price. Stopping bottles jumping out Firstly, have the bottle cage at 90 degrees, don't risk anything like 45 degrees – even if it is easier to get to. Use a standard size water bottle – 500ML (not 700ML or 800ML). Choose a water bottle which is tight fitting on the cage. Make sure you tighten the bolts to the correct torque. This will make it less likely to fall out. Test before a race! Go for a ride over bumpy terrain and see if your bottle stays in. If you test in a race you might find yourself one or two bottles down.

Don't ever let someone tell you that moving is easy. People who say things like that are called liars. This is not an alternative fact. Moving is tough and every little thing involved with moving is annoying and frustrating. There is not one redeemable moment in the entire process. After months of scouring Zillow, Trulia, and Craigslist (*shudder*), we finally found a place that was perfect. Unbeknownst to us, that was the easy part. After settling on the two bedroom/two bathroom apartment, a mere 5 minutes from my previous apartment, we patted ourselves on the back and then realized we'd be moving in January.

We stood outside in the dreary rain mist for two and a half hours waiting to board a train. Continue reading "I marched, now what?"

Earlier this year, England-based producer jackLNDN released his sophomore album "Thoughts." On the album was "With You," a sultry deep house tune that absolutely vibrates. For the first official remix from the album, jackLNDN tapped fellow Brits Fluida to put their own spin on "With You." On the remix, they blended a euphoric Latin groove to the original for a lovely daytime soiree.
"The snippet of the piano really helped set the vibe, and there was a softness to the texture of Jack's voice which we sprinkled throughout the track to help keep things intimate."
– Fluida
Stay tuned for the second remix from the album from Frameworks, coming early next year. The two remixes are intended to keep fans warm this winter, while Jack prepares for new music in 2020.
Check out the original to "With You" and the rest of the album below.

Television's Effects on the Natural Environment
You may be thinking, "How on earth could the TV have an affect on our natural environment?" and you have every right to. At first glance, it may seem impossible that the TV can have an effect on our natural surroundings; but, nevertheless, it does.
One of the ways that the TV can have an effect on our surroundings is by the amount of power that is needed to run all of the TV's in the world. I realize, that compared to other appliances, a television does not use a huge amount of energy. But think about this: almost every family in America has at least one TV if not more (some people that I know have upwards of 6 and 7). Can you imagine the power it must take to run all of these televisions? And this is only in our country! Just think, if our society would stop watching television, we could save huge amounts of energy (fossil fuels) each year. This extra energy (fuel) could be used or saved in more efficient ways.
The TV not only has an effect on our natural resources, but it affects our living organisms as well; in both bad and good ways. Lets discuss the bad first. Going back to what I discussed earlier, when we mine for fuels to produce the energy to power our TV's, we are harming the habitat that our precious animals live on. Bet you never thought that a TV would indirectly be destroying an animal's habitat? Television programming can also have an affect on our animals and their habitat. When programs and channels film documentaries and movies in the wilderness, they definitely have an effect on the environment. During the filming of a documentary or, especially, a movie the filmmakers need to transport their crew and equipment into very delicate regions of the world. When they go traipsing through these delicate wilderness areas, they can't help but leave their mark on the environment. You've seen some examples of the bad; now let us focus on the good.
These same people that I have just talked about above can also help the environment. Scientists who make documentaries can be very helpful to the environment as well. If they are able to travel into the wilderness to study animals and wildlife, a video camera can be a useful tool. The scientists, with the help of a video camera, can record their observations of these animals and view them later on a television or place them on television where others, who were not able to travel to the particular location, can watch and observe these animals as well. The ability to do this helps the environment in two ways: 1) It helps scientists and other experts understand our natural world much better enabling them to help preserve it, and it 2) promotes education of the environment to those who are not scientists. As you can see, the TV has an effect on our environment for good and bad, even though it may be indirect.
When I say natural environment, you probably only think about the ways in which it affects our...

One question that comes up all the time in any spouse or pet group is where to find a puppy or kitten in Germany.
Germany does not support the sale of cats or dogs in pet stores since they are viewed as animals that need to live in a social environment.
There are plenty of places to get puppies and kittens from; you just need to know where and how to look.
For many, the first place they look is the internet, and while most breeders do have websites, search engines don't make it easy to really find a breeder or even just an ad for one.
Your first step should be to decide what kind of dog or cat you want and does it fit your lifestyle.
If you opt for a rescue, you have plenty of options to choose from; there are rescue groups that bring dogs into Germany from all over Europe or your local animal shelter.
A word of advice though, quite a few German ran shelters have decided against adopting pets out to US military members and families, because they were abandoned or left behind too often. Don't despair though, there are plenty of shelters that still do adopt to Americans; it just may take some searching.
Rescue groups from outside the country work a little different; often you get to choose a dog from pictures online and don't actually meet them until they get brought into the country once they are chosen for adoption.
It's a great option for someone that wants to give a pup a chance at a good life. I would like to add, if you decide on a dog that is not a puppy anymore, count on spending some extra money on training. Most dogs lived and fended for themselves and are not yet socialized properly, so I would not recommend that route to a new dog owner.
If you want to go for a breeder kitten or puppy, there are also some things to avoid. Do spend the time and do your own research, I know puppy finder services can be nice, but in the past years they have gotten blacklisted, busted for dealing with mill puppies and on top of that charged you for a potentially sick pet.
I know the search can seem overwhelming, but once you know what to look for, it's really simple.
Here are a few guidelines:
Germany has kennel and cattery clubs just like the US. For Germany the main club that oversees everything is the VDH; for cats, there is no main club like that.
The VDH then splits off into the different dog classes: working/herding/toy and so on.
So if you want a papered dog, the VDH is the label to look for. The AKC accepts any VDH dog and you can breed with it back in the states. The AKC does not recognize any other club, and there are quite a few others out there.
The VDH also offers a handy search engine for breeders and people looking to buy puppies, just be sure to use the German name of the breed you are looking for.
Check the link out: http://www.vdh.de/welpen/zuechter-suche
If you are paying paper prices for a dog, be sure they are the right papers.
Do look on online classifieds.
Breeders often advertise there, too, and, often they have a link to their page along with degrees and kennel club details.
Don't fall for scam ads; no serious breeder (hobby or registered) will charge you money to ship an animal up front that you have never met.
Stay away from ads that come up with several different breeds all from one place which literally screams puppy mill.
Always try to meet the seller in person, and ask to view the pups and the mother to make sure they all look healthy. Don't meet the seller to hand over a kitten or puppy out of a car.
Then, of course, are the hobby breeders, often frowned upon, but they can still be a source of a healthy, well socialized pet, if you just follow a few guidelines.
Most hobby breeders sell cats and dogs that are essentially like a pedigreed pet. They are quite a bit cheaper than their papered brothers, but they can still run up a bit of a price tag.
Again go with your gut, the pet should be noticeably less than the equivalent dog with papers, but if they are charging a hefty price you can still expect health and genetic tests on the parents, immunizations and a breeder that checks in with you and your new housemate.
Usually they will be happy to show you the mommy and babies, and you can see for yourself that they are well cared for.
Last but not least, you have the barnyard pets, usually mostly kittens and not so much puppies since it is expensive to keep a dog here in Germany.
You may notice that kittens and puppies are a bit more expensive here that back home, but most people get their pets neutered, because it's much less stress on them and their pet.
If you are wondering about prices, then I can give you a bit of a guideline, but prices do vary a lot.
A shelter pet will cost you between 100-200 Euros, depending on the pet. Also, Germany does not run adoption events like they do in the states, but some private shelters accept donation based fees.
A rescue from outside of Germany will run you 200-300 Euros.
A pet from a registered breeder with papers 600-900 Euros (up to 2000 - depending on titles, colors, or the ability to breed yourself)
Pets from hobby breeders 400-500 Euros (with health checks)
and your plain old barn kitten should not run you any more than 100 Euros tops (with shots and dewormed)
If they are asking more than that, ask why or look for another breeder. Don't rush into a sale if it does not feel right and the seller has unreasonable requests.
Make finding your right furry friend an adventure for the whole family. Do the research, visit breeders, drown yourself in cute puppies or kittens, and do it all over again until you find the one that you fall in love with.

No A+ on Transcript
dak replied to bealexa's topic in Peter A. Allard School of Law (University of British Columbia)@bealexa The whole weighting of grades by UBC is a bit bizarre to me. As someone with over 150 credits from a dual degree (many of which were high-level courses where over 20% of the class failed, so a B+ was a miracle), the low credit drop count skews my average completely. Something closer to what UVic does, or UoT even, would be preferable. I think they're including the PS in the index calculation because GPA calculations like UBC's don't tell the full story of a student's academic career - they likely eliminated strong candidates in the past too... as Tagger said, it is what it is, but let's hope the new index helps with that this year
@qwopwo That's odd considering the new admission process this year (GPA/LSAT/PS weight equally) - do you know what the index would have translated to? That might be the new auto-admit number
@qwopwo Did you already submit your application? This likely means they processed your application already unless you sent them your transcript or something (which I doubt they would do anything with, otherwise they would be inundated with emails asking them to crunch GPAs).
Is the index still reliable?
dak replied to RJar's topic in Peter A. Allard School of Law (University of British Columbia)Looks like we're in for a wild ride this admissions cycle... I think it's a good idea to consider personal statements but the fact that they are EQUAL to GPA/LSAT is a bit bizarre - maybe it'll only be the case for those on the cusp of being accepted/rejected
Applying discretionary really doesn't (or shouldn't...) give you any disadvantage and gives you more than one avenue to admission if you have a competitive application. In terms of the waitlist situation you should maybe call them to confirm if they move people between waitlists (I thought they just kept you on the discretionary waitlist if your application isn't competitive enough to move to the regular category, and if you were moved to regular category it's usually only if you're a shoe-in for admission). If you call and get any info counter to this though, please post it back here as I would be curious to see what they say!
UVic No Canadian Option for Ethnicity
dak replied to BestCaseOntario's topic in General Discussion@BestCaseOntario Isn't there a plain old "caucasian" category - i submitted mine a while ago and don't remember what the choices were, but I'm pretty sure that's where you'd fit lol
If you're cutting it close with your index and you think you could score even one point higher on a re-write, you should write the LSAT again. I think they'll only confirm GPA on applications that have been processed (but someone correct me on this if I'm wrong). Today's the deadline for the November registration so get moving if that's when you want to write!!
