As the name "Bruce Arians" begins to bubble up on the list of potential head-coaching candidates (the Steelers are still waiting for him to retire), the man who currently is serving as the interim head coach of the Colts arguably needs to brush up on some of the rules that apply to folks who speak publicly about football matters.
And, more specifically, about football players who are under contract with other franchises.
"I'd love to have him on my team," said Arians regarding Lions defensive tackle Ndamukon Suh. "I like the way he plays. He plays aggressive, hard, fast and physical."
Since Suh remains two years away from free agency, it's not tampering in the classic sense. But it could be tampering in the literal sense.
The league's anti-tampering policy prohibits "[a]ny public or private statement of interest, qualified or unqualified, in another club's player . . . to a member of the news media." The policy includes this specific example of a forbidden statement: "He's an excellent player, and we'd very much like to have him if he were available, but another club holds his rights."
The league has declined comment on whether Arians' comments violate the anti-tampering policy.
Though far more troubling violations occur, it's rare that any coach or G.M. says something that so clearly falls within the confines of what the policy prohibits. Though it arguably wouldn't be fair to punish the Colts for a fairly innocuous comment, the rule says what it says. If the league's not going to enforce the policy as written, the league needs to change the policy.

A new study says that nearly half of all American jobs may soon be performed by robots. And the White House has just announced the formation of "the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership Steering Committee '2.0,'" which it describes as "part of a continuing effort to maintain U.S.leadership in the emerging technologies that will create high-quality manufacturing jobs and enhance America's global competitiveness."
That seems like a good idea, but it raises a number of questions. There is only one labor representative on the committee, as compared to eleven corporate CEOs, and it would be good to know why. What's more, labor isn't acknowledged in the President's statement that "industry, academia, and government must work in partnership to revitalize our manufacturing sector."
That's unfortunate, because the working people of America should have a strong voice in designing the future of our manufacturing sector. In fact, that role is more important than ever, as a manufactured product – a range of devices commonly described as "robots" – may change the face of work in America.
The Committee
Defense contractors are heavily represented on the Committee. Its Chair is Wes Bush, CEO of Northrup Grumman. David Cote, head of Honeywell, also represents a defense-heavy corporation. Other corporations represented include Dow Chemical, Caterpillar, Siemens, Applied Materials, and Alcoa.
The lone labor voice belongs to Leo Gerard, head of the United Steelworkers.
The corporations on that list had the sympathetic ear of Mitt Romney, the Presidential candidate who considered them "people." Romney, like many conservatives, believed that today's runaway unemployment was structural -the permanent result of technology and other factors – rather than cyclical, and therefore treatable through time-tested macroeconomic methods and government policies.
In fact, as economist Brad DeLong notes, Romney replied to a question about how he would address cyclical unemployment by listing six approaches to treating the structural kind. (DeLong described it as a "bad plan" and said that only two of the ideas were any good. I'd argue that none of them were.)
Last year's committee report, the product of version "1.0," proposed more funding for R & D, innovation, and education. Many of its ideas were quite good, especially regarding clean energy, but none should be mistaken for solutions to today's economic problems.
The report also included a wish list for corporations: a deceptively-packaged call for tax "reform," that is, tax breaks for corporations who are already paying historically low real tax rates; "streamlined" regulations based on a misguided but fashionable vision of "cost/benefit analysis" which minimizes social benefits; and more of the same trade "liberalization" that has already dealt a harsh blow to the American workforce.
The Robots Are Coming
It's probably true: Automation will almost certainly transform the American workforce. The robots are coming – but they're not here yet.
Both parts of that statement are important. Certain vested interests would benefit if policymakers concluded that today's high unemployment was due to the displacing effect of technology. That would mean there's not much anyone can do except offer some job training and hope for the best. Monetary policies and government jobs wouldn't help a bit.
But the robots haven't arrived, at least as of this writing, even though liberal blogger Kevin Drum wrote a widely-circulated essay earlier this year suggesting that they had. "(W)e should be very alarmed," wrote Drum. "… the evidence suggests that–slowly, haltingly–(robot job displacement) is happening already, and we're simply not prepared for it."
Unfortunately, as Jared Bernstein points out, there's no evidence for that. "Most of the weak employment outcomes with which we're currently stuck are cyclical," notes Bernstein, adding: "…as (economist) Dean Baker likes to point out, productivity growth has slowed in recent years …"
Under those circumstances it's hard to argue that the cause is constantly-improving technology. Drum's probably right, however, when he warns that "the hollowing out (will probably start) with desk jobs in places like accounting or customer support."
Bernstein concludes that the robot issue "bears watching," and he's right. A new report suggests that nearly half of the nation's jobs could eventually be vulnerable to automation.
No, they're really coming
A new study by Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne, of Oxford University's Programme on the Impacts of Future Technology and Department of Engineering Science, concluded that 47 percent of current US jobs were vulnerable to automation.
Frey and Osborne take note of some surprisingly rapid developments, such as Google's development of a self-driving car, then assess jobs based on the level of "creative intelligence," "social intelligence," dexterity, and other skills in which humans currently have the advantage.
They conclude that, in the first wave of automation, "most workers in transportation and logistics occupations, together with the bulk of office and administrative support workers, and labour in production occupations, are likely to be substituted by computer capital."
The authors add that, "more surprisingly," service, sales, and construction jobs will be increasingly vulnerable to automation. Forbes magazine is even automating some of the tasks formerly done by human journalists. (Time to dust off that novel.)
They conclude that "generalist occupations requiring knowledge of human heuristics, and specialist occupations involving the development of novel ideas and artifacts, are the least susceptible to computerisation." That heterodox category includes CEOs, mathematicians, and poets.
Which profession do the authors conclude is most vulnerable to automation? Telemarketers. That will satisfy some people's vindictive streak, but it will also create more unemployment.
Empty Mills
The manufacturing sector is already automating its workforce, and it would show considerable foresight on its part if it were to address this issue holistically and in depth. A case in point: The New York Times recently ran a story about textile manufacturers who are moving their plants back to the United States to save on shipping costs, but are heavily automating them to save on labor costs.
The article points out the consumer appeal of "made in the USA" products, along with the bragging rights politicians can earn for bringing these industries back home. But, as the Times points out, "it means jobs, but on nowhere near the scale there was before, because machines have replaced humans at almost every point in the production process."
So far, "Made by Humans" does not have the same kind of sales appeal that "Made in America" does – although it may be a campaign worth considering. But US sales of manufacturing goods will only be robust as long as workers have jobs and are earning enough money to buy them.
Corporate executives nowadays routinely prefer the quick income jolt, for something that will look good on the next quarterly statement. That's precisely the kind of shortsighted thinking that led the President's last manufacturing committee to call for tax cuts and regulatory breaks while ignoring cyclical unemployment. And that's precisely the kind of thinking they should avoid.
American Giant, one of the brands named in the article, sells well-made clothes that appeal to people with decent working-class jobs – the kind of people who work in textile mills. The fewer the jobs, the lower the sales for American Giant.
What about the robots?
That's the question of the day: What should we do about automation? If we ignore its long-term implications, the US labor force will take the first hit. But most corporations will eventually get their turn in the barrel.
It should be noted that predicting the future is a risky business. History is filled with inaccurate predictions about the 'world of plenty' that technological advances will bring. Scott Winship of the Brookings Institution (who is convinced that robots don't cause unemployment) notes that, despite the dire predictions, median income rose and unemployment fell after computers became ubiquitous.
He has a point. We don't know what will happen. We only know what might happen. But it would be foolish not to plan for that. A rational planning process would look something like this:
- Include all segments of society in the conversation, not just corporate interests. Labor has a key role to play.
- Avoid becoming so engaged in hypothetical future events that we ignore the crisis right in front of us. Today's unemployment emergency involves cyclical, not structural, unemployment.
- Act, not as Luddites or technophobes, but as wise stewards of our own future – a future which must include a healthy middle class, as well as corporate executives and engineers.
- Target government resources toward technology that is job-producing, as well as wealth-producing. Clean-energy technology is an excellent example of that. The President's first manufacturing committee had excellent ideas for "green tech," which produces well-paying and hard-to-automate jobs retrofitting homes and commercial buildings across the country.
- Raise the minimum wage, to ensure that every working American can earn a living wage during this period of displacement.
- Learn from the errors of globalization, This time we should remember to distinguish the inevitable from the merely possible, and to consider all the alternatives before embarking on a course of action.
Automation is not a tidal wave, sweeping everything in its path. It's a process which we can shape and direct toward the best possible outcome for all the affected parties. That's a category which includes all of us. Everyone deserves a place at the table.

Lingering symptoms gone, Lough's walk-off saves O's
BALTIMORE -- David Lough's first season with the Orioles has been a dizzying experience.
Back in the lineup Saturday night after being sidelined for the second time in the last five weeks with concussion-like symptoms, Lough delivered the game-winning single in the bottom of the 12th inning, scoring Steve Lombardozzi from third base in Baltimore's 2-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.View Full Game Coverage
BALTIMORE -- David Lough's first season with the Orioles has been a dizzying experience.
Back in the lineup Saturday night after being sidelined for the second time in the last five weeks with concussion-like symptoms, Lough delivered the game-winning single in the bottom of the 12th inning, scoring Steve Lombardozzi from third base in Baltimore's 2-1 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.View Full Game Coverage
Mobbed by his teammates after the first walk-off hit he could remember, Lough laughed at the suggestion that he might be worried about the celebration getting too rough.
"I was kind of expecting that. I was like, 'here we go.' Trying to get prepared for it," Lough said. "But my helmet was on and I was safe."
Saturday marked Lough's first start since Monday. He was sidelined for a week in Spring Training after he experienced dizziness and saw floaters in his eyes. When the symptoms returned early this week, the Orioles expected 28-year-old to go on the disabled list. But doctors cleared him to play after determining he did not have a concussion.
Lough made his first impact on Saturday night in the seventh inning of a scoreless game. With two down, he singled and scored on a slicing double to the gap in right-center field by rookie infielder Jonathan Schoop. The single run stood until Toronto was down to its final strike in the ninth inning.
Then on a 1-2 pitch from Tommy Hunter, Colby Rasmus blasted a solo home run into the bleachers in right-center field to tie the game. Hunter, often susceptible to the home run, was beaten on a 98 mph fastball after throwing three breaking pitches to the Blue Jays' center fielder.
It was a bitter pill for Baltimore to swallow, especially considering the way starting pitcher Bud Norris had shut down Toronto, allowing just five hits and no runs in seven innings. The previous night, the Orioles lost 2-0 despite brilliant work by ace Chris Tillman.
According to Lough, however, he was glad to see the Orioles unaffected by Rasmus delivering Toronto from the brink of defeat.
"It was one of those games where we kept our heads up," Lough said. "I looked in the dugout and we still had energy."
Lough has been something of an energy guy for the Orioles since he was acquired from the Royals in exchange for Danny Valencia in December. With no true leadoff hitter in the lineup, Baltimore hopes it's a slot he soon will fill. The left fielder has the speed, but now it's a question of whether he has the bat, and perhaps, the head.
"We took a different approach. Hopefully this time we figured it out." Lough said of the treatment he received this week. "If I'm in the lineup, [manager] Buck [Showalter] feels confident in me, I feel confident in myself, in my ability to compete at this level."
Showalter likes what Lough brings.
"David's a contributor. He's contributed in games he hasn't got a hit in," Showalter said. "Stole a couple bases, plays really good defense. He'll play left field as well as anybody in our league. He's an option in center field when [Adam Jones] needs a day. David's been grinding."
Another offseason acquisition, Lombardozzi, helped make Lough a hero on Saturday. There were indications that Baltimore was ready to break through against reliever Todd Redmond (0-1) after the right-hander had thrown three shutout innings.
Catcher Steve Clevenger closed the 11th inning with a deep drive that sent Toronto left fielder Melky Cabrera to the warning track. Then, leading off the 12th inning, J.J. Hardy -- back in the lineup after he had been sidelined for a week with back spasms -- slammed a towering shot to right that Jose Bautista grabbed with his back to the infield before sprawling on the track.
Lombardozzi was next up and his liner to straight-away center flew over the head of Rasmus. With a head-first slide, the Orioles second baseman landed safe at third base, setting the scene for Lough, who lined Redmond's outside corner pitch down the left-field line.
Schoop's seventh-inning double was the first extra-base hit in a game unexpectedly dominated by pitchers Norris and Drew Hutchison.
Norris threw 105 pitches, walking three and striking out four. Hutchison was just as effective, holding the Orioles to four hits over six innings with two walks and five strikeouts. But neither figured in the decision as they turned the game over to their respective bullpens.
Norris' performance was a major positive for the Orioles starting staff, which has struggled with the exception of Tillman.
"We're gonna get it going. Tilly is obviously the lead dog. We're all trying to catch up to him," Norris said. "With Ubaldo [Jimenez], [Wei-Yin] Chen, [Miguel Gonzalez] and myself, we know we can go out there and do the job. These guys have pitched in the big leagues for a while now."

I came up with the initial idea for "The Butcher of Londinium" while skimming through a Jack the Ripper book for information on police procedure in 1880's London. At the same time, I was watching the first season of Spartacus. The two merged in my head, and I began to toy with the idea of a serial killer, sentenced to die in the arena, who made a deal with a Lanista to survive. Could the gladiators come to accept him? If so, why? What about a man who'd lost everything because of him?
Since I had Jack the Ripper in mind, I set the story in an 1880's alternate version of England where the Romans had never left. Surgery gave me a link between the first and second question, as well as a reason the Lanista might be willing to deal.
Still, it didn't seem like quite enough to me. I needed something more, an emotional center that could tie everything together, and put the two main adversaries, the serial killer and the wronged man, in conflict not just because of past events, but also in terms of present ones.
So Stolo was born.
Once I had Stolo, I knew I had all I needed to start the story. But then I hesitated. I began to doubt if I could pull off a first person story from the point of view of a serial killer. Maybe I should just move on to some other, easier idea? I decided to go ahead with the story anyway as I realized I'd fail harder by not trying at all than by trying and not pulling it off.
I'm glad I did.

My first pick is of course the Visual C version.
So I make 3 files (copied from the documentation)
- Code: Select all
int power_of_2 (int x) { return 1<<x; }
- Code: Select all
(c-declare "extern int power_of_2 ();")
(define pow2 (c-lambda (int) int "power_of_2"))
(define (twice x) (cons x x))
- Code: Select all
(write (map twice (map pow2 '(1 2 3 4)))) (newline)
Then next step is to compile it:
- Code: Select all
gsc -link m2 m3
The gambit scheme window appeared then suddenly quit. There is no m3_.c created.
I guessed there was something wrong with the visual C version, so I tried the same thing using the MinGW version.
It worked, and indeed there was a m3_.c
And after some trial and errors, I found the required libraries:
- Code: Select all
gcc m1.c m2.c m3.c m3_.c -o firstprog -lgambc -lwsock32 -lws2_32
The executable ran properly.
I still don't know why the visual C version fails.
Anybody have a similiar experience on this thing?

Last-Minute Interview Prep Tips
Got any other last-minute interview tips?
Hamsa Ramesha | AdminSecret
Interviews can be pretty intimidating, so it's understandable if you put off prepping for the big day because of nerves. Lucky for you, we've put together a cheat sheet of last-minute interview prep tips, whether your interview is tomorrow afternoon — or two hours from now.
Procrastinators, rejoice. You still have a chance at that job!
1. Dress Code
Looking the part really is half the battle. A professional interview outfit is part of making a good first impression. Ladies, keep it classy with appropriate heels, buttoned up shirts, and modest skirts. Avoid flashy jewelry, see-through blouses, and low-cut tops. Men, a pressed shirt and dress pants are always an easy option; consider a tie and a business jacket if it's appropriate for the company. Never wear sneakers or shorts, and do go easy on the cologne.
2. Research
Get out your smartphone for a quick Google search on your company. Read up on any recent news items that the company is mentioned in and make sure you take a look at the company's website. Familiarize yourself with their mission statement and general services. Expect to be asked why you want to work for this particular company, not to mention a handful of other tough interview questions about the company's history. This is challenging even for the most prepared of interviewees, so don't worry if you find yourself stumped. But if you do some research beforehand, you won't look like a deer in headlights.
3. Prep Materials
Always print out a copy of your resume and any related job materials so that you have it on hand for the interview. Don't have a printer? Ran out of ink? Email the necessary documents to yourself and make a quick run to you local copy store. Worst case scenario: Email your resume to your interviewer just before your interview so at least they have a soft copy.
4. Quiz Yourself
While it's hard to predict exactly what you'll be asked during your job interview, there are a handful of questions that you should be prepared for. Don't be caught off guard when you're asked to talk about your past job experiences or specific projects. Be prepared to recall detailed examples of your accomplishments. Practice with a friend, or even in front of a mirror. Listen to yourself and how you phrase your answers. Practice makes perfect!
5. First Impression
At its core, a good interview is really about making a positive first impression. All that dressing professionally, arriving on time, and coming prepared won't matter if you seem arrogant and self-absorbed. Carry yourself with a confidence — your positive, professional attitude won't go unnoticed. However, if you feel that the interview is going south, it doesn't hurt to ask if it's possible to reschedule. Be polite and considerate of the big favor you are asking of your interviewer. After all, the worst that could happen is you don't get the job. Better luck next time!

Men talk. And we talk about getting fat and losing weight. Well right after we talk about real women and getting laid, and about imagined women and getting laid, and then getting laid some more in the future and in the past and doing so despite being fat.
Geez you really should know these scientific facts by now!
AnyHowze, Tony started to tell me how to go about losing some of the weight that is creeping up on me.
His advice stems from his experience and I am very happy for him ...
Well, to be honest, I need advice. My routine to stay fit and keep off the pounds is ... ummm, failing miserably.
My workout routine started to falter about a month or more before leaving whiteville.
And so here I am unfit and struggling and worried that living with the momster is gonna mean more chubby forever.
I have used a version of Tony's diet before. He waxed inspirational and lyrical about how it has turned his life around and I admire his willpower and want his results.
It was not until later in the evening that I remembered the ad below and doubt entered my roller-coaster head.
After a few minutes of washing some biscuits down with assorted soda pop I realized Tony was wasting his time.
He needs worms. Me too.
Sanitized tapeworms, that is, and then we can eat all the damn pizza we want and wash it down with a Coke float or three.
Remember those? Coke and ice cream floats ... my childhood favorite and a Sunday staple at number 11.
So Tony, you my boy and all ... and I am happy that you svelte and the envy of the women in your lift-club and social circle ... well OK not so happy but more envious ... but I think you should ditch the workout routine and low carb lifestyle and swallow worms ... and a grip of them with perhaps a wash of Tequila and lemon on the side.
It is the way to go. See ad for results!
One problem though, where the hell do you buy tapeworms of the sanitized kind?
Aahhhhhh damn ... why do I feel like Pick & Pay does not stock tapeworms and even if they do ... bet it is not Halal.
Geez ... you think I am gonna be pudgy forever now? .... please help me
Ps: Ummm Tony ... I'm still the thinnest of all the fat dudes from our 80s circle ... honest. Boet is it hip2bsquare and fat?
Oh yeah I didn't think so ... dammit this sucks big time!

Steve Broscoe's Road-Race-Styled '69 Camaro Has The Heart Of A Drag Car.
Feature Of The Month
By his own admission, Steve Broscoe isn't really a road-race kind of guy, but he digs classic musclecars that are all-around performers. He knew he wanted a ride that would be nice to drive on the street, and more than capable of smacking the snot out of any random Viper or Lambo he might come across. His vision was a mix of drag, road race, and street that would be more "Pro" and less "Touring." Like many gearheads, Steve's idea of what he wanted was way beyond his wrenching abilities. Enter Campbell Auto Restoration. Steve saw one of CAR's trick subframes at an event, and after talking with some of the guys who work there, he knew they had the skills to turn his brainchild into a petrol-swilling, asphalt-melting ride. Next up was finding a suitable starting point. Steve told PHR, "I was on my way to work and saw a '69 Camaro sitting on the side of the street with a 'For Sale' sign in the window. I stopped to check out the car, but there wasn't any contact info. Then, an old woman sitting on a bus bench asked me if I was interested in the car. I said 'yes, but there's no phone number.' Turns out she was the owner, and had bought the car back in 1969. We made a deal, and just like that, I was a Camaro owner." The Hugger Orange Camaro, complete with its column-shifted 307 and standard interior, was then shipped to CAR to begin its transformation.
One of the main requests Steve made to the CAR crew was that the ride stay as cosmetically close to a '69 Camaro as possible-so no crazy body mods would cut into the Chevy's iconic style. Bodywork at CAR stayed focused on fixing rust, making the sheetmetal laser-straight, and ensuring that the gaps were as consistent as a politician's lies. CAR shaved the side markers and wipers, but other than that, it's just the way the General designed it. According to Kevin Long at CAR, "The only place we were able to make a change to the look of the car was the two-tone paint job. The black paint helps make the cowl hood look smaller." There's even a really fine green pinstripe separating the two colors.
If the body of the Camaro is considered mostly stock, then the drivetrain and suspension are the polar opposite. The easiest way to get the 38-year-old Camaro to handle like a new car was to ditch the old technology and start from scratch. CAR built a custom chassis under the floors, and bolted on its removable front subframe. The front sub features Ohlin coilover shocks riding inside Eibach springs, power rack-and-pinion steering, and fully adjustable upper and lower control arms. There's also a jungle-gym- looking labyrinth of bracing that keeps all the geometry rock-steady. In the rear, CAR welded in a three-link system complete with a Watts link and matching Ohlin coilovers. Lastly, it tied the chassis together with a full rollcage. Since stopping is as important as speed, CAR upped the braking on the Camaro with huge six-piston monoblock calipers and 13.5-inch rotors on all four corners. The rollers enveloping the brakes are Kinesis K-5s (17×10.5-inch in front, and massive 18×13-inch in the rear), and helping the Camaro stick to the tarmac are Hoosier R-compound competition tires.
The end result is a cool musclecar that has been completely updated, and still has its classic style. Most importantly, it's fun to drive, and is more than capable of smacking around the vast majority of exotics on the street. It's part Pro-Touring, part Pro-Street, and all Pro-Badass!
When it came time to choose the mill for the '69, Steve was adamant about what he wanted. "Steve was never a road-race guy, which is why there's a 572 big-block in the car versus a big-inch small-block, or even an LSX-type of engine," says Kevin. "Steve had to have the big-inch grunt with that little juice on top, just to jump out in front at the push of a button." The 572 short-block was built by Shafiroff, filled with forged internals, and topped with Brodix heads and matching intake with a Holley 1050 Dominator. "We had to mill the Brodix intake down a bit, so that the assembly would fit under the 4-inch cowl hood," explains Kevin. The exhaust is unique because it uses four Dynomax race mufflers and four 2.5-inch tailpipes. When a little extra grunt is needed, the NOS fogger system is only the push of a button away. The nitrous system even has its own dedicated fuel tank, filled with 104-octane racing gas-a combination guaranteed to permanently affix a smile to any gearhead's face. Backing up this big-cubed engine is a suitably strong five-speed manual trans built by G-Force, which passes the torque back to a Winters full-floating housing with an aluminum Moser center section.
The interior treatment performed by CAR is an exercise in comfort and functionality. Black Recaro seats cradle the driver and passenger, while Autometer Ultra-lite gauges nestled in a Detroit Speed dash keep track of the engine's vitals. To keep the '69 pointed in the right direction, there's a Momo Trek-R wheel, and if things go wrong there's a Safecraft Halon fire extinguisher and a full rollcage. For comfort, there's Vintage Air-but you won't have any luck finding a stereo system. Given the sweet sounds emanating from under the hood, it seemed like an insult to put one in.
The real question is, "Does he drive it?", and the answer is "yes." Steve brought the big-block Camaro down to our test venue at California Speedway in Fontana, California, so that we could beat on it for some testing. Our first metric was to send the F-body though the cones. The nose-heavy big-block managed a respectable 47.7 mph through the 420-foot slalom. Then it was time to hit the skidpad. Our 200-foot donut is run clockwise and counterclockwise, and then the two best times are averaged to get the final number. In this case, the Camaro hit .87g. Again, the extra weight of the 572 up front caused the Camaro to push. CAR plans to play with the suspension settings and sway bar choice to counteract this; but know that even in the best situation, tuning a big-block's suspension takes time on the track. Next up was the 60-0 braking test, where the 3,800-plus pound (with driver) Camaro came to a halt after only 129 feet. Lastly, we went to the dragstrip, where the big-block could really shine. With tons of wheelspin, the Camaro easily ran an 11 on its first pass, with an 11.70 trapping at 125.58 mph. After a few more runs to get a feel for the car, Steve managed an 11.55 at 128.05, without touching the nitrous. We would love to see this car make a pass with real drag tires.

For media catering to fashion's insiders, it was a brutal 2008.
Fashion and luxury magazines got a sharp reality check this year, as Wall Street crumbled when large investment firms Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch were swallowed whole, corporations laid off hundreds of workers and consumers pulled back their spending on luxury goods and designer wares. While the brunt force of the economic downturn wasn't felt in full until the fall, the end finished with publishers wiping sweat from their brows as advertisers across retail, automotive and consumer goods significantly cut their ad spending.
This story first appeared in the December 15, 2008 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Glamour, In Style, Lucky, Vanity Fair, W, Esquire and GQ posted double-digit declines in ad pages, and before year's end, some titles buckled under the extreme economic pressures. Cosmogirl, Radar and O at Home all folded in the fall. Condé Nast canceled Fashion Rocks and Movies Rock in 2009, opting to wait until the economy recovers, and scaled back Portfolio's publishing schedule to 10 times annually from 12 and Men's Vogue from 10 issues to just two a year. Additionally, Time Inc. restructured its publishing division, shedding 600 jobs in the process, and Hearst Magazines laid off employees across most of its titles, including Redbook, Harper's Bazaar, Esquire and Seventeen.
Aside from the decline in advertising, circulation has also plateaued — most fashion titles have struggled to improve newsstand sales this year, the best indicator of consumer demand.
The challenges sent a message to publishers that they would need to find other avenues of growth to offset revenue losses from print advertising, both to survive through the recession and to gain a stronger position once a recovery begins. Some finally utilized the Internet, investing heavily in magazine Web sites that would help acquire subscriptions and also bring new content to the reader on a new platform. Some also used bloggers to gather a new audience or to promote content from the magazine, as the number of female-centric sites continued to grow online in 2008.
This year also saw the convergence of magazines and reality television, another vehicle to reach new legions of subscribers. Following the success of "Project Runway," "The Hills" and the subsequent buzz and awareness both bestowed its magazine partners, Elle and Teen Vogue, respectively, many magazines rushed to partner with other popular style-related TV shows, including In Style, Allure and Marie Claire. Elle, meanwhile, looked to expand its reach toward the small screen further after its deal with "Project Runway" — and its relationship with fashion director and "Project" judge Nina Garcia — expired. The magazine launched a reality show on The CW, "Stylista," and had a cameo on "Ugly Betty." Meanwhile, "Project Runway" remains in the middle of a legal battle between The Weinstein Co., the show's owners, and NBC Universal, with the latter claiming Weinstein did not give first right of refusal to NBCU before it moved the show to Lifetime from NBCU's cable network Bravo.
The CW's biggest hit show remained "Gossip Girl," which has attracted a fan base not just for its story lines around privileged Upper East Side teens, but also for its fashion influence through the looks and designs worn by the characters.
Elsewhere, Interview underwent a dramatic transformation in 2008: longtime managers Ingrid Sischy and Sandra Brant left the title, and owner Peter Brant brought in a new team led by new co-editorial directors Glenn O'Brien and Fabien Baron. Esquire celebrated 75 years in business with a flashy, electronic-ink cover that got plenty of media buzz. Oprah Winfrey announced she was launching a new television network, OWN, and The Wall Street Journal transformed itself under new owner Rupert Murdoch. The paper added new sections, installed an entirely new management team and even rolled out a glossy luxury quarterly, WSJ.

Ra-a-as. Just discovered I have 2 diary entries that are quite similar. I must be tired. Didn't even realise I had alread written some of that stuff down.
Whats happened since last is that Microsoft has released Hailstorm, which is quite interesting in a join the dark side Luke kind of way.
For those who arent familiar with Hailstorm check out Dave Winers discussion of it.
While I dont like the centralised approach to Hailstorm, there is plenty of scope for doing subversive tunneling here. Hailstorm, is based on mainly open protocols. All of Microsofts apps are going to be supporting them. There is already lots of OpenSource software supporting the protocols. My favorite is Soap::Lite for Perl. We can have lots of fun here and open up lots of alternate services to compete with MicroSofts. How about forexample if the SlashDot, SourceForge etc had Soap interfaces, they already have RSS interfaces. SOAP is just the next step.
Ofcourse, for Microsoft it's all about keeping the important data on their servers letting them do all sorts of nasty aggregations on it. Even if Microsoft is as they say they are concerned about privacy it's always a great thing for someone like the NSA or the MI5 here in England to have a single point of contact. Hey they might even have their own SOAP interface into Passport, where they can play to their hearts content.
So why not come up with a similar scheme, except let the software behind it be OpenSource and use some sort of distributed way of sharing the data. You could even have a tiny HushMail style login applet, that fetches your encrypted data from a distributed filestore and decrypts it in the applet after you entering your username and passphrase. This would send a Kerberos style ticket back to the server needing authentication.
This would still allow tracking on the local website level, but not on a global level.
Otherwise I'm working on some neat stuff in Python at the moment.

Hobart C-100 Mixer - service manual? any rebuild experiences?
Hi all,
This is for the Hobart enthusiasts who read TFL. Thanks, btw, for all the helpful posts. It's been an education. I have (for the second time) come close to destroying a N-50 by mixing too-large batches of bread dough; after reading the larger mixer search & recommendation posts, I ended up with a Hobart C-100, model 17664. I realized that I might never be able to obtain parts for it, since it's been out of production for over 20 years, but I was able to find one that was never used. That should mean that all the parts are in good shape (except perhaps for some unseen rust). The seller thought it had sat in a warehouse all its life - the warranty card and manual packet were still attached to it with wire. I'm sure the grease has long since drained out of it, and am ready to take it apart and re-pack it. (And I've bought mixer-specific grease for that purpose.)
So I'm wondering if any of you Hobart fanatics out there who have this machine have ever (like breadman_NZ with his N50) taken yours apart and fixed it? If so, would you share your experiences, warnings, etc? And does anyone have a service manual for this beast? I have scoured the web and not found one. I did find all the user / parts manuals on Hobart's site, and have downloaded them; if this is all there is, I'm glad to have them. But it would be so helpful to have a real service & repair manual, if anyone has one.

10 Awesome Videos Of Things Blowing Up
We all love to watch things blow up. Why is this? Because, as humans, we are destructive in nature. Now that everyone has a camera phone, and you can get on the internet everywhere, it makes it super easy to not only watch, but also capture video of these things exploding. So kick back with some popcorn, put on the protective goggles, and get ready to watch stuff go boom.
10. Chemical Plant Destroyed
A chemical plant in Nevada goes up in flames. There is a rocket fuel storage area inside. It explodes and is gone in a flash.
9. Explosion On The Sun
Thanks to NASA for picking up this one. This explosion is a bit terrifying though. If Earth was a little bit closer to the sun, we may not enjoy this particular explosion so much.
8. Japanese Volcano Explosion
This is footage of Japanese volcano Mt. Sakurajima. It's amazing how beautiful and destructive nature can be at the same time.
7. Extreme Makeover: Explosion Edition
Most of the time, we can't stand 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.' The over-dramtic host + the staged emotion = barf. However, we do enjoy this particular part of this episode because it is just an absolutely fantastic home explosion.
6. Downtown Detroit Explodes
The video infers that this clip is from the filming of the new 'Red Dawn' movie, but we aren't quite sure. None the less, this is a great explosion that took place in Detroit. We are glad someone captured it all with their camera.
5. Speed Channel Blows Up A Car
Have you ever wondered how they blow up cars in the movies? Well, wonder no more because the guys on Speed's 'Stuntbusters' show us exactly how it's done. In fact, they show us several ways to do it.
4. Oil Tanker Explodes
This gem is from the Discovery Channel show 'Destroyed In Seconds.' This is an oil tanker that has developed a fire. Not the best thing. Can you guess what happens when fire meets the oil?
3. Train Explosion
A train derails, with seven of its eight cars carrying some sort of oil. Bad enough that the train is on fire, but at about the 1:00-minute mark, a huge explosion happens.
2. German Plane Crash And Explosion
A double whammy! Planes crash into each other above an airshow, sending one plane to the ground and resulting in a huge explosion.
1. Whale Explosion
This is one of those classic videos that has been around almost as long as the internet. A whale is beached and dead. So what is the best way to get rid of it? Blow it up, of course. It doesn't go exactly as planned though, and ends up sending whale parts into the sky. What goes up, must come down.

When MKW6 opened I got a lot of emails and messages asking for Rain sprites, and I was like "wtf, Rain sucks", but AceKombat ripped his spritesheet thanks to his Rain color cheat for UMK3, so here they are:
New Complete Spritesheet
That will do for now, I formatted my computer so I still have to configure Thunderbird to get the messages from my inbox, so I apologize if I haven't replied to any e-mails you've sent.
40 responses to "New Complete Spritesheet"
i agree when u say "RAIN SUCKS" i mean what kinda ninja wears purple if u can reply
Murdoink, thanks for posting more sprites. Thanks to this website, I made a funny MKII/WormsArmageddon mashup map ( http://simondorfman.com/worms ) thanks to this website. I'm working on a video about the map and that led me to try to figuring out how to rip sprites from ROMs. Do you think AceKombat could share how he does it? Or point me in the right direction? Is there some MAME tool for it? Thanks for any help.
Ok, maybe Rain sucks but it´s better to have your page complete because many people may need those sprites for animations, or maybe sprites comics. Big mcveigh says something true. In MKD, in conquest, when you tell Rain about a place to hide (you are suppouse to tell him the location where Jade is waiting for him), after Jade beats him, she starts talking about how strange is his costume.
Rain does NOT suck! FACT
How can you say that?, his roundhouse kick was ace and his lightening strike was cool too you could get a well good combo using these 2 moves alone…
Lightening strike then roundhouse before he hits the floor then roundhouse him again before he hits the floor – what more could you want?
He is very much under rated and i reckon he will be in future games (he deserves to be), like you said he has a huge fan base and has great potential.
Thanks for the sprites, there cool and now i can finally make pivots of Rain kicking a$$.
:D A very happy MK fan.
P.S theres nothing wrong with the colour purple either!
purple is gay
i agree with Deadly_Dragon purple is gay.
Did the site get reset? Because those aren't very many sprites… I thought I remember there being alot of them. Hm. Meh, I never played MK:III (right…?) and cannot comment whether or not he's good.
I know you have been doing a good job but i was wondering if you could make some of the sprites faceing the opposite way they are faceing now.So i could make two sprites faceing each other.
Ok nvm about my last reply i figured out how to flip them
I think Rain is cool and all, I use him heaps on MK trilogy, I just have 2 complaints: 1 His fatalities on this website don't work and most of those sprites are of other ninjas like scorpions jack in the box friendship wish you'd clear this up, I know it's a hard job but get rain other than a Mardi Gras scorpion.
Yay rain is up. Good job dude, especially since he's not actually in UMK3, you did well in using cheats to change his colours around.
i think you should get scorpien coler and make a sprite sheet with alot of alternt sprites
Your welcome :D Btw it is Perfect sprite colors , the cheat I made traced the rain pallete . So its Perfect sprites yall are seeing .
Great update Murdoink ! Keep up the great work :D !
ya murdoink good work
You don't remember when I beat you with Rain… don't you? :D
Acekombat PLEASE post a Spritesheets of the UMK3 Ninjas and an MK2 Kung Lao spritesheet.BTW you still need the rest of the sprites of a fatality being performed on him.
Murdoink,when do we will have the sprites of Noob Saibot that are not totally dark?I need these sprites…
rain doesnt suck infact RAIN
How is purple a gay colour?
Rain is the best ninja :)
Purple is the best colour
Purple is not exactly gay, but it is a strange colour for a ninja(if he is really a ninja).
Frankly, all colors except for black are stupid for a ninja to wear if you wanna get technical.
Pretty much anyone that says Rain sucks is only saying so because they are closed minded idiots that think that purple is gay so rain is a fag lolrzz!!111. Any guide will tell you that if you know how to use him he is one of if not the best fighters in Mortal Kombat, period.
Well, you are right, all the except black are stupid for a ninja. But there are many colors, the point is, why purple (of the many colours in the world). The only thing left is that they invent a Ninja using a pink costume, AND MALE.
Anyone can say Rain sucks, but not becuase they are idiots, because THEY SIMPLY DON´T LIKE HIM. You must respect others opinions.
Well, but I won´t tell anything. I never used well Rain anytime I played UMK3 (hehe :P)
They chose purple because the whole joke was a reference to Purple Rain. I was only calling people idiots when they dislike Rain simply because of the color. That's a very childish reason.
Doesn't Chameleon switch between all the different colored ninjas? Couldn't he be considered more of a rainbow ninja? If you ask me, a rainbow is gayer than purple, am I right? I think I'm taking it too far with this one…
I won´t tell anything. I never used well Rain anytime I played UMK3. I was too young when that game was released. I downloaded the version for MAME (just for a while) of UMK3, but even there, I never used him well (playing in a computer is a more difficult than playing witha nintendo or in an Arcade)
"if you know how to use him he is one of if not the best fighters in Mortal Kombat"
I you ask me, every character can be good if you know how to use it well.
The Phantom wears purple, is he gay, he could whoop your homophobic ass. i mean come on, id pay a dollar to see you try and beat Rain or the Phantom, hell even those gay guys could propably smash you homophobes
if u havent seen how he's going to look in MK Armageddon you should start to search for a pic asap because in MKA he's the best looking (style wise, not color wise) out of all the ninjas if you havent seen it ill like it here i guess http://s15.invisionfree.com/MK_Alliance/index.php?showtopic=38 his outfit owns even if its hardly visible
Ok, Rain does not $uck, ok, his color is not cool, but better than pink, lets see, 'checks paper of fatalities for rain.'
lhis 1st Fatality in MKT is Up-Side-down-uppercut & his 2nd one is Multiple Lightning attacks, his moves are based on his fatality, his moves combo is: Lightning, Moving Ball, Special Roundhouse, Rain Results: 5/10
moves are powerfully cheap…
only one with different roundhouse
Most people chart Rain: either purple is a g@y color or
rain plainly sucks, literraly
..He is no fun to play as
always made fun of
2nd in rank to Stryker
I'll be back…
How about UMK3 Scorpion complete followed by MKII Scorp 'n' Sub?
I hate to have to find out sprites're missin'. WTF is doesn't want to say tryin' to say
… i dont know Kung, all i know is that RAYNE does not suck, even if he has a KICK-ASS look in MK:A, i think it's going 2 be the Next Shaolin Monks in Konquest mode, anyway, i hope that Nitrous is still calm, lemme check em, u have a message, post it. Seriously
i'm kinda thinking Shredder would be pissed at Rain in MKA because he kinda looks like the Shreeder he is(lol), Sub-Zero is more of Frozen Shreeder
i'm kinda thinking Shredder would be pissed at Rain in MKA because he kinda looks like the Shreeder he is(lol), Sub-Zero is more of Frozen Shreeder…
LOL, that made me remind about a comic ]{ombat has on his webpage(I don´t know if it´s from him or from another guy that sends comics)
seriously, take a look at rain in MKA, you'll find out the difference…
Yes, I already saw it, he looks preety cool, but anybody can look good, but, will he be a god character??? Only in MKA we will know.
Regards there I want to thank all for having created a very useful page for my (and for many other persons) I seize the opportunity to ask them to finish the movements of all the ninjas especially to Ermac and Sub_Zero. Thank you.
Nota:Your better admirer Gabriel, continue forward they are the best and regards to tabok99mortalkombatpavilion
En Español:
Saludos a todos por alla les quiero dar gracias por haber creado una pagina muy util para mi(y para muchas otras personas)aprovecho la ocasion para pedirles que terminen los movimientos de todos los ninjas en especial a Ermac y Sub_Zero.Gracias.
Nota:Su mejor admirador Gabriel,sigan adelante son los mejores y saludos a tabok99mortalkombatpavilion
Hola I am Gabriel it(he,she) wanted that please they were spending(passing) a mail to me to my MSN (email@example.com) to be able to send messages, presentations, comics. Thank you.
I don't agree with Deadly Dragon, purple is NOT gay. He's so cool and did you know that, his father was killed by Shao Kahn (his father had ruled Edenia many years ago but he wasn't evil.)

I believe healthy nutrition is the most important factor for maintaining and keeping good health. Healthy nutrition basically is eating healthy and balanced from all the basic food groups; which consists of the dairy group, poultry group, fruit group, vegetable group and a little from the fats, oils, and sweets groups.

Saudi Arabia's football community is mourning the death of one of its most prominent names, Mohammed Al Khlaiwi who died on Thursday 13 June from heart failure at the age of 42.
The defender spent the majority of his career playing for Al-Ittihad and won 142 caps for his country between 1990 and 2001. Al Khlaiwi played in two FIFA World Cups™ (1994, 1998), four FIFA Confederations Cups (1992, 1995, 1997, 1999) and one Olympic Football Tournament (1996).
"I was very sad to hear of the passing of former Saudi Arabia international Mohammed Al Khlaiwi," said FIFA President Joseph S. Blatter. "On behalf of FIFA and the international football community, I wish to extend our deepest condolences to the Saudi Arabian football community and, most importantly, to the family, friends and loved ones of Mohammed Al Khlaiwi.
"We hope that in some way, our words of support may help bring a little bit of peace and solace in this time of sadness."

Does the excalibur dehydrator plastic off gas?
All plastics off gas. Some are more prone to off gassing than others. Polystyrene off gasses the most since its molded at a low temperature(450-500 degrees). Most inexpensive dehydrators are made of polystyrene. The excalibur is made of Engineering grade polycarbonate, which is also used in jet aircraft windshields. The poloycarbonate is molded at 650 degrees. According to the owner of excalibur, off gassing occurs at 200-300 degrees above the highest temperature setting in the dehydrator, so off gassing is not a problem.

Tekken 3 PC Game Download
Tekken 3 is the third installment in the Tekken fighting game series. It was the first game released on Namco's System 12 hardware. It was the last installment of Tekken for the PlayStation. It was released for the PlayStation in 1998, and in 2005 for the PlayStation 2 as part of Tekken 5's Arcade History mode. The PlayStation version is widely regarded as one of the greatest of its genre.
Tekken 3 maintains the same core fighting system and concept as its predecessors, but brings many improvements, such as significantly more detailed graphics and animations, 15 new characters added to the game's roster, more modern music and faster and more fluid gameplay. Perhaps the most noticeable change from Tekken 2 fight system is movement reform – whereas the element of depth had been largely insignificant in previous Tekken games (aside from some characters having unique sidesteps and dodging maneuvers), Tekken 3 added emphasis on the third axis, allowing all characters to sidestep in or out of the background by lightly pressing the arcade stick (or tapping the controller button in the console version) towards the corresponding direction. Another big change in movement was that jumping was toned down, no longer allowing fighters to jump to extreme heights (as was present in previous games), but keeping leaps to reasonable, realistic heights. It made air combat more controllable, and put more use to sidestep dodges, as jumping no longer became a universal dodge move that was flying above all of the ground moves. Other than that, the improved engine allowed for quick recoveries from knock-downs, more escapes from tackles and stuns, better juggling (as many old moves had changed parameters, allowing them to connect in combo-situations, where they wouldn't connect in previous games) and extra newly-created combo throws.
Tekken 3 was the first Tekken to feature a beat 'em up Streets of Rage style minigame called Tekken Force, which pitted the player in various stages against enemies in a side-scrolling fashion. If the player succeeds in beating the minigame four times, Dr. Bosconovitch would be a playable character (granted that you defeat him first). This was continued in Tekken 4 and succeeded by the Devil Within minigame in Tekken 5 – but Boskonovitch was dropped as a playable character after Tekken 3. There is also a minigame called Tekken Ball, similar to beach volleyball, where one has to either "charge" a ball (hit the ball with a powerful attack) to hurt the opponent or try to hit the ball in such a way that it hits the ground in the opponent's area, thus causing damage.
Set fifteen years after the King of the Iron Fist Tournament 2, the story starts with Jun Kazama, who has been living a quiet life in Yakushima with her young son, Jin, who is the son of Kazuya Mishima. Heihachi Mishima, meanwhile, has established the Tekken Force, an organization dedicated to the protection of the Mishima Zaibatsu. Using the company's influence, Heihachi is responsible for many events that have ultimately led to world peace. However, while on an excavation in Mexico, a squadron of Heihachi's Tekken Force is attacked and vanquished by a mysterious being. The only surviving soldier manages to relay a brief message to Heihachi, describing the perpetrator as an "Ogre" or a "Fighting God". Heihachi and a team of soldiers investigate, with Heihachi managing to catch a glimpse of the culprit. After seeing the Ogre character, Heihachi's long dormant dream of world domination is reawakened. He seeks to capture Ogre to use him for this goal.
Soon after, various martial arts masters begin disappearing from all over the world, and Heihachi is convinced that this is Ogre's doing. In Yakushima, Jun starts to feel the presence of Ogre approaching her and Jin. Knowing that she has become a target, Jun tells Jin about Ogre, and instructs him to go straight to Heihachi should anything happen. Sometime after Jin's fifteenth birthday, Ogre does indeed attack. Against Jun's wishes, Jin valiantly tries to fight Ogre off, but Ogre brushes him aside and knocks him unconscious. When Jin reawakens, he finds that the house has been burned to the ground, and that his mother is missing and most likely dead. Driven by revenge, Jin goes to Heihachi and tells him everything. Jin begs Heihachi to train him to become strong enough to face Ogre again. Heihachi accepts.
Four years later, Jin grows into an impressive fighter and master of Mishima Style Karate. On Jin's nineteenth birthday, the King of the Iron Fist Tournament 3 is announced, and Jin prepares for his upcoming battle against Ogre. He is unaware, however, that Heihachi is merely using him and the rest of the competitors as bait to lure Ogre out in order to capture him.
Eventually, the tournament leads to the final confrontation between Jin and The God of Fight. Paul Phoenix was successful in defeating Ogre, however, he leaves after winning the match. Unknown to him at the time, Ogre is able to transform into a much more powerful "true" from, known to the players as "True Ogre". When Jin arrives, he is confronted by this True Ogre form and begins the fight. The battle rages for hours, until Jin finally emerges the victor and Ogre completely dissolves. Moments later, Jin is gunned down by a squadron of Tekken Forces led by Heihachi, who, no longer needing Jin, finishes the job personally by firing a final shot into his grandson's head.
However, Jin, revived by the Devil Gene within him (because after Jin's mother had gone missing following an attack from Ogre, Devil returned, branded Jin's left arm with a mark, possessing him), reawakens and makes quick work of the soldiers, turning his attention to Heihachi and literally smashing him through the wall of the temple. Heihachi survives the long fall, but Jin, in mid-air, sprouts black, feathery wings and strikes Heihachi one last time. He then flies off into the night, leaving his bewildered grandfather staring after him.

hey guys……….. i found the problem for why it is slowing…….
Change your video plugin to
"Pete's OpenGL Driver 1.71"
Then it will go slowly
For slowing down gameplay:
config->vedio->Pete's DX6 D3D Driver 1.71->configure->use FPS limit->select FPS limit to 85……thats all
Enjoy the game….
