This week on the Frotcast, we have local comic and theater manager Matt Louv live in the Frotquarters to discuss Carnage, The Iron Lady, the worst things he's seen as a theater manager, Marky Mark preventing 9/11, Brendan's impersonations, listener calls, listener emails, other jackassery, and Bret's bag o' bones.
- 00:02:02 – Flashback to the incident during Vince's stand-up where Brendan confronted a heckler, and Matt was there to witness it.
- 00:05:15 – We take a listen to some voicemails: one fan with a pulse on the humanity vents about Fake Bret, the real Bret receives a backhanded compliment, Ben gets called a c*nt, and the Mighty Feklhr sends in a koi call.
- 00:17:44 – We have a brief talk about the exciting Niners' win from this past weekend. Vince had an interesting viewing of the Maggie Thatcher biopic, Iron Lady. Matt and Vince discuss Carnage, Roman Polanski's newest film, and we play a fun little guessing game dealing with the film. Vince plays a new clip from MANswers that leads us to Robert Palmer's Simply Irresistible, Matt shares some stories about running a theater, and Brendan adds some more impersonations to his repertoire.
- 01:02:13 – We talk about Marky Mark hypothetically stopping 9/11 (never forget), his wicked childhood, and him no longer needing to wank it.
- 01:11:14 – Justin Halpern sent in an email to follow up from episode 81, we answer a relationship question, and the issue of Vince losing his virginity comes up.
Drunk On! -Adam

When buying an automobile, it is very rare to experience customer service of the highest standard – especially when that organization is intent on sourcing the vehicle of your choice – and not the one that they want to sell that week. AutoSearch USA's customer service and desire to meet customer needs is unmatched. There are few companies in this world that are trustworthy with a sound ethical business ethic. AutoSearch USA is one of those few. All in all, I will definitely purchase my next auto from AutoSearch USA.
Got exactly what I wanted! LOVE the car, love the process that took no time out of my busy day and got me a better deal than I'd even hoped! Looking forward to buying our third car from Autosearch USA next year.
Best car buying experience I've ever had! We know we got a great deal and couldn't have asked for a higher quality used vehicle. Really enjoying the car and look forward to a lot of years of enjoyment behind the wheel.
After much searching we finally found the car of my dreams! The great thing was that we weren't limited to one brand, we looked at and test drove a lot of cars from BMW to Ford, Hyundai to Honda, and when we finally found the right combination of features we then found the car that fit my budget exactly. Easy financing with the best rates by far that we found - even got us a better rate than what we were approved for through our same bank! I look forward to doing business with Autosearch USA in the future.
Easy to work with, low pressure sales people, great financing options, got me the most for my trade, got a great value on a certified used Audi and a great extended warranty for the next 7 years. I had to do practically nothing besides tell them what I was looking for and then sign the paperwork. Couldn't be happier!

Detroit, MI – Corey Kluber spun six strong innings to earn his first major league victory, as the Cleveland Indians downed the Detroit Tigers, 3-2, in the opener of a three-game set Monday at Comerica Park.
Kluber (1-3), making his seventh big league start, allowed two runs on six hits and one walk with four strikeouts. Cody Allen and Esmil Rogers each fired hitless frames in relief before Vinnie Pestano worked around a leadoff double in the ninth to nail down his second save of the season.
Asdrubal Cabrera knocked in a pair, including the go-ahead run in the seventh inning on a sacrifice fly to help the Indians win for the second time in their last three games on the heels of a six-game skid.
"We had pitching today and we made some plays and we were able to get the win," Indians manager Manny Acta said.
Delmon Young finished 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored for the Tigers, who entered the game tied with Chicago for the AL Central lead after sweeping the White Sox in a three-game weekend series.
"I didn't see any signs of lingering a big series," Detroit manager Jim Leyland said. "We were ready to play and we got beat."
Darin Downs (1-1) was charged with the loss after loading the bases in the seventh before Cabrera's go-ahead fly.
With the game locked at 2-2 in the seventh, Downs served up one-out singles to Lou Marson and Jason Kipnis around a Shin-Soo Choo walk to load the bases.
Bryan Villarreal then entered from the bullpen and yielded Cabrera's sac fly to give the Indians a 3-2 lead.
After the Indians had a run cut down at the plate in the top of the ninth, Pestano was called upon to finish things off in the bottom half.
Prince Fielder greeted him with a leadoff double, but the right-hander grounded out Young before hitting Brennan Boesch.
After a brief meeting at the mound, Pestano struck out Jhonny Peralta and then got Alex Avila to ground out to second to secure the victory.
Earlier in the game, the Tribe scored in their first at-bat as Kipnis singled, moved to third on Michael Brantley's base hit and scored on a passed ball.
The Tigers loaded the bases in the bottom half when Quintin Berry singled, Miguel Cabrera worked a one-out walk and Fielder was hit by a pitch.
Young then stroked a single through the right side of the infield to plate Berry.
Cleveland regained its lead in the third as Choo singled and stole second two batters later before moving to third on Avila's throwing error.
Asdrubal Cabrera then fouled off six pitches before slapping the 12th pitch of his at-bat into center field to score Choo for a 2-1 edge.
Young led off with a double into the right-field corner in the fourth and Boesch followed with a looping single into center before Peralta singled off the base of the wall in left field to score Young and tie the game at 2-2.
Game Notes
Cleveland improved to 1-12 when not registering an extra-base hit ... Detroit starter Anibal Sanchez allowed two unearned runs on eight hits and one walk over six innings ... Detroit went 3-for-9 with runners in scoring position and stranded six ... Cleveland finished 2-for-7 with runners in scoring position and left eight men on base.

Gartner just released its worldwide PC, tablet, and mobile predictions, and the numbers look bad for every product that doesn't have "Android" in its name. But wait a second: Isn't Gartner the same organization that said Windows Phone would take over the market? Yes, but that was six months ago, and the world according to Gartner has turned upside down -- completely invalidating the company's previous predictions -- as it is wont to due every six months or so. The other gold-standard computer industry fortune teller, IDC, isn't any better.
As Gartner's predictions came out today, I'll pick on its fortune-telling ability first. You decide for yourself about Gartner's ability to make predictions.
Today, Gartner predicts that worldwide traditional PC shipments in 2013 will decline 7.6 percent year over year from 2012. It adds a new category called "ultramobile" that includes the Surface Pro and lighter Ultrabooks. Doing so makes the overall PC decline seem to be less: If you add traditional PCs and ultramobiles, overall PC shipments in 2013 will decline only 3.5 percent year over year, Gartner says. The Guardian quotes Gartner analyst Carolina Milanesi as saying, "Winning in the tablet and phone space is critical for them to remain relevant in this shift," which is widely interpreted (perhaps incorrectly) as "if Microsoft doesn't get its tablet and smartphone act together in the next four years, Windows will become irrelevant."
The same report predicts that 354 million Windows devices will ship in 2013, compared to 293 million iOS/OS X devices -- "devices" includes desktops, notebooks, ultramobiles, tablets, and smartphones. Google's Android, of course, runs roughshod over both Microsoft's and Apple's OSes. For comparison, Gartner says 353 million PCs shipped in 2012 and 365 million in 2011. A little bit of math (353 million minus the projected 3.5 percent decline) shows that 2013's Windows PC sales will be about 340 million PCs, plus 14 million Windows Phone devices.
Compare that with the headline 18 months ago that proclaimed Windows Phone will account for 20 percent of the mobile market by 2015, according to Gartner. Five months before that, in April 2011, Gartner predicted Android would hit 50 percent of the mobile market by 2012 (that came to about 500 million units). The same month Gartner said that Symbian had hit 0.1 percent, in spite of an October 2010 projection that it would rise to a 30 percent share in 2014.
As I said, IDC is no better: It predicted last month that total PC shipments in 2013 would fall 1.3 percent from 2012. Of course, before that, it predicted an increase of 2.8 percent. It too predicted that Windows Phone would be a major hit, based apparently solely on the fact it came from Microsoft.
I wish these so-called analysts would toss out their crystal balls and grow some brass ones. They're not making serious assessments about the sorry state of the PC market, so they underestimate the cliff that the Wintel industry is hurtling toward.
Last month, before I saw the leaked build of Windows 8.1 (code-named "Blue"), I predicted a double-digit decline in desktop and notebook PCs (including Macs) shipped in 2013. Back then, I figured PC sales would drop maybe 11 or 12 percent. But having seen the early (and possibly bogus) build of Windows 8.1, I'm now willing to guess that Windows desktop and notebook sales will decline closer to 20 percent year over year, particularly if the figure takes into account returned PCs, which most stats don't.
I fully expect that by January 2014, Gartner and IDC will come up with new definitions ("ultramobile"? puh-leez) to obfuscate the sorry PC situation. I'd love it if a reputable analytical company (hello, Canalys? Horace Dediu at Asymco, can you take a swing at it?) were willing and able to publish straight-up net-after-returns sales figures for traditional Windows PCs. I'd bet their figures would show a drop of 20 percent between 2012 and 2013. Maybe more.
As for Windows Phone sales, I don't care if the Lumia is the best smartphone ever made or if Microsoft produces ads that go viral. Windows Phone and BlackBerry together won't amount to more than a pimple on the backside of the smartphone market in 2013.
Let's get real, please.

Distributing mobile applications with IBM Application Centerimprove this page | report issue
IBM MobileFirst Foundation Application Center is a repository of mobile applications similar to public app stores but focused on the needs of an organization or a team. It is a private app store.
Application Center facilitates sharing mobile applications:
- You can share feedback and rating information.
- You can use access control lists to limit who can install applications.
Application Center works with MobileFirst apps and non-MobileFirst apps, and supports any iOS, Android, and Windows/Phone 8.x applications.
Note: Archive/IPA files generated using Test Flight or iTunes Connect for store submission/validation of iOS apps, might cause a runtime crash/fail, read the blog Preparing iOS apps for App Store submission in IBM MobileFirst Foundation 8.0, to know more.
You can use Application Center in different contexts. For example:
- As an enterprise app store across an organization.
- During development to distribute applications within a team.
Note: to build the iOS AppCenter Installer application, MobileFirst 7.1 is required.
Studio is required to for 7.1 worklight apps and is not required for pure cordova apps.
Jump to:
- Installing and configuring
- Cordova based IBM AppCenter client
- Preparing mobile clients
- Managing applications in the Application Center console
- The Application Center mobile client
- Application Center command-line tools
Installing and configuring
Application Center is installed as part of the installation of MobileFirst Server with IBM Installation Manager.
Prerequisite: Before you install Application Center, you must have installed an application server and a database:
- Application server: Tomcat or WebSphere Application Server full profile or Liberty profile
- Database: DB2 , Oracle, or MySQL
If you do not have a database installed, the installation process can also install an Apache Derby database. However, using the Derby database is not recommended for production scenarios.
IBM Installation Manager guides you through the installation of Application Center with choices of database and application server.
For more information, see the topic about installing MobileFirst Server.
Because iOS 7.1 supports only the https protocol, the Application Center server must be secured with SSL (at least with TLS v.1) if you plan to distribute apps for devices that run iOS 7.1 or later. Self-signed certificates are not recommended, but can be used for testing purposes, provided that self-signed CA certificates are distributed to devices.
After Application Center is installed with IBM Installation Manager, open the console:
Log in with this user/password combination: demo/demo
At this point, you can configure user authentication. For example, you can connect to an LDAP repository.
For more information, see the topic about configuring the Application Center after installation.
Prepare the mobile client for Android, iOS, BlackBerry 6/7, and Windows Phone 8
The mobile client is the mobile application that you use to browse the catalog and install the application.
Note: For a production installation, consider to install the Application Center by running the provided Ant tasks: it enables you to decouple updates to the server from updates to the Application Center.
Cordova based IBM AppCenter client
The Cordova based AppCenter client project is located in the
install directory at: install_dir/ApplicationCenter/installer/CordovaAppCenterClient.
This project is based solely on the Cordova framework and thus has no dependency on the Mobile Foundation client/server APIs.

Customizing AppCenter Installer application
You can further customize the application, such as updating its user interface for your specific company or needs.
Note: While you can freely customize the application UI and behavior, such changes are not under the support agreement by IBM.
- Open the Android Studio.
- Select Import project (Eclipse ADT, Gradle, etc.)
- Select the android folder from install_dir/ApplicationCenter/installer/CordovaAppCenterClient/platforms/android.
This might take some time. Once this is done you are ready to customize.
Note: Select to skip the update option on the popup window, for upgrading the gradle version. Refer to
grade-wrapper.propertiesfor the version.
- Go to install_dir/ApplicationCenter/installer/CordovaAppCenterClient/platforms.
- Click to open the IBMAppCenterClient.xcodeproj file, the project is opened in Xcode and you are ready to customize.
Preparing mobile clients
For Android phones and tablets

Note: Refer to Cordova based IBM AppCenter client, if you are using Cordova framework for building Android and iOS AppCenter client.
For iPad and iPhone
Compile and sign the client application provided in source code. This is mandatory.
In MobileFirst Studio, open the IBMAppCenter Project at: install_dir/ApplicationCenter/installer
Use Run As → Run on MobileFirst Development Server to build the project.
Use Xcode to build and sign the application with your Apple iOS Enterprise profile.
You can either open the resulting native project (in iphone\native) manually in Xcode, or right-click the iPhone folder and select Run As → Xcode project. This action generats the project and opens it in Xcode.
Note: Refer to Cordova based IBM AppCenter client, if you are using Cordova framework for building Android and iOS AppCenter client.
For Windows Phone 8
Register a company account with Microsoft.
Application Center manages only company applications that are signed with the company certificate that comes with your company account.
The Windows Phone version of the mobile client is included at: install_dir/ApplicationCenter/installer/IBMApplicationCenterUnsigned.xap
Make sure that also the Application Center mobile client is signed with this company certificate.
To install company applications on a device, first enroll the device with the company by installing a company enrollment token.
For more information about company accounts and enrollment tokens, see the Microsoft Developer website → Company app distribution for Windows Phone page.
For more information about how to sign Windows Phone mobile client applications, see the Microsoft Developer website.
Important: You cannot use the unsigned

Confidence Waning in Obama, U.S. Outlook
Americans are more pessimistic about the state of the country and less confident in President Barack Obama's leadership than at any point since Mr. Obama entered the White House, according to a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll.
The survey also shows grave and growing concerns about the Gulf oil spill, with overwhelming majorities of adults favoring stronger regulation of the oil industry and believing that the spill will affect the nation's economy and environment.
Sixty-two percent of adults in the survey feel the country is on the wrong track, the highest level since before the 2008 election. Just one-third think the economy will get better over the next year, a 7-point drop from a month ago and the low point of Mr. Obama's tenure.
Amid anxiety over the nation's course, support for Mr. Obama and other incumbents is eroding. For the first time, more people disapprove of Mr. Obama's job performance than approve. And 57% of voters would prefer to elect a new person to Congress than re-elect their local representatives, the highest share in 18 years.
The results show "a really ugly mood and an unhappy electorate," said Democratic pollster Peter Hart, who conducts the Journal/NBC poll with GOP pollster Bill McInturff. "The voters, I think, are just looking for change, and that means bad news for incumbents and in particular for the Democrats."
Mr. McInturff said voters' feelings, typically set by June in any election year, are being hardened by frustration over the economy and the oil spill. "It would take an enormous and seismic event to change the drift of these powerful forces before November," he said.
Mr. McInturff added that any "little, faint signs" in the spring that voters were adopting a more optimistic outlook have now been "squished by feelings from this oil spill."
For Democrats, the results underscore the potential for major losses in November. Both parties have been forced to contend with an anti-establishment wave this year. But Republicans, through strong fund raising and candidate recruitment, have put enough seats in play in the House and Senate to give the GOP a realistic shot at winning control of both chambers.
Support for Mr. Obama and his party is declining among centrist, independent voters. But, more ominous for the president, some in his base also are souring, with 17% of Democrats disapproving of Mr. Obama's job performance, the highest level of his presidency.
Approval for Mr. Obama has dropped among Hispanics, too, along with small-town residents, white women and seniors. African-Americans remain the firmest part of Mr. Obama's base, with 91% approving of his job performance.
In winning the presidency, Mr. Obama conveyed an image of remaining steady and focused during the banking crisis and economic downturn. Now, amid the oil spill and a weak economic recovery, Americans are taking a dimmer view of his personal qualities and leadership style.
Some 30% in the poll said they "do not really relate'' to Mr. Obama. Only 8% said that at the beginning of his presidency. Fewer than half give him positive marks when asked if he is "honest and straightforward.'' And 49% rate him positively when asked if he has "strong leadership qualities,'' down from 70% when Mr. Obama took office and a drop of 8 points since January.
Just 40% rate him positively on his "ability to handle a crisis," an 11-point drop since January. Half disapprove of Mr. Obama's handling of the oil spill, including one in four Democrats.
"As a Democrat and as a woman, I am disappointed in him," said poll respondent Melissa Riner, a 42-year-old law clerk from Mesa, Ariz. Referring to the oil spill, Ms. Riner added, "I don't think he's handling it. He doesn't seem to be doing anything. He just talks."
James Ciarmataro, a 23-year-old stay-at-home dad from Macomb, Mich., said it was difficult to relate to Mr. Obama, because the president is "eating steak dinners at the White House and playing golf" while the country is suffering.An independent, Mr. Ciarmataro said he would vote in November for "whoever seems the newest, and doesn't seem to have any ties to anybody else."
Tina Becker, a 47-year-old homemaker and registered Democrat from Wauseon, Ohio, who identifies herself as an independent, said she still strongly supports Mr. Obama. "But it might have made him look better if he communicated more about how things were progressing," she said.
In the survey, 45% said they wanted to see a Republican-controlled Congress after November, compared to 43% who wanted Democratic control. But even more telling is the excitement gap between the core voters of each party.Just 44% of Obama voters—those who voted for Mr. Obama in 2008 or told pollsters they intended to—now express high interest in the midterm elections. That's a 38-point drop from this stage in the 2008 campaign.
By contrast, 71% of voters who supported Republican John McCain in 2008 expressed high interest in this year's elections, slightly higher than their interest level at this stage in that campaign.
The gap helps explain why the Democratic National Committee is spending $50 million on a campaign to try to lure Obama voters back to the polls this year.
Nearly two-thirds in the survey said they wanted more regulation of oil companies. Majorities also favor more regulation of Wall Street firms, health insurers and "big corporations."
While a majority still favors greater offshore drilling, support has slipped considerably over the past month as the Gulf oil spill has grown worse—from 60% in May to 53% now.
Sixty-three percent support legislation to reduce carbon emissions and increase the use of alternative and renewable energy sources, even if it means an increase in energy costs.

Ross Sea & McMurdo Sound
In 2011, I was lucky enough to be on a voyage on the Kapitan Khlebnikov into the Ross Sea, down to Mc Murdo Sound. We saw the Ross Ice Shelf, and were able to visit the historic huts of Scott and Shackleton, as well as drop into one of the famous Dry Valleys of Antarctica. These are a few of the photos I took. I shall try and find time for captions, just to identify the wildlife, although some are obvious, such as the Emperor Penguins.Read More

The concrete fast curing additives concrete
The concrete fast curing additives is an admixture that can greatly reduce the amount of mixing water under the condition of the same slump of concrete. The plasticizer is a kind of concrete admixture that can reduce water consumption under the condition of keeping the slump of concrete basically unchanged. Mostly anionic surfactants, lignosulfonate, naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde polymers. After adding the concrete mixture, it has a dispersive effect on cement particles, can improve its workability, reduce water consumption per unit and improve the fluidity of concrete mixture; Or reduce the amount of cement per unit, save cement. The concrete fast curing additives in the concrete slump is basically the same, can make mixing water consumption reduce the admixture by more than 15%.

Cement role as a carbon sink has been overlooked
The cement industry is the largest single emitter of carbon dioxide. A landmark 2018 report by Chatham House found that carbon accounted for about 8 percent of global emissions.
But according to Jenny Burridge, a principal structural engineer at the Concrete Centre in London, cement\'s role as a carbon sink has been overlooked.
"Concrete absorbs carbon dioxide," she said. "We haven\'t talked about it much. But actually, that\'s one of the things we\'re looking at right now."
"How much carbonation is actually happening?" What are the total sink that we have in the UK and the rest of the world?"
"Different types of concrete absorb carbon dioxide at different rates," she added. For reinforced concrete, structural engineers specify that concrete has a low carbonization potential because this can lead to corrosion of the reinforcement.
The Materials scientist at Cambridge University said cement and concrete "are not carbon sinks", but she suggested that other types of concrete, such as masonry blocks, could be used to sequester carbon from the atmosphere. "Blocks of rock actually form carbonate very quickly," Burridge said. Crushed concrete has greater potential because it has a larger surface area to absorb carbon dioxide.
