Proud citizens of the Commonwealth who were looking forward to seeing if former Penn State winger Casey Bailey could become the first Nittany Lions player to score a goal in an American Hockey League game at the PPL Center in Allentown will have to wait for another day. In the meantime, the roller coaster-riding Lehigh Valley Phantoms will still clash with the incoming Binghamton Senators at the corner of 7th & Hamilton Streets this Wednesday night (January 25th) as previously scheduled. On the heels of last Saturday night's humiliating 9-1 romp by the visiting Providence Bruins, it is quite simply a game that head coach Scott Gordon's charges must win to make things right.

Down the wicket is cricket opinion. A group of cricket enthusiasts, passionate about the games standards. We openly encourage discussion, debate and opinion, because cricket is worth getting worked up about!
Sunday, 27 December 2009
Thanks to everyone for being so organised that the whole thing ran like clockwork for the meet-ups and was just fun times from the start.
Nospmas, Lefty, Sledgey, Blacky
Stoph and Paul amongst 59K
our view for the first session
Highlights for mine:
Finally meeting Lefty and enjoying his reaction as he entered the G.
Seeing Sledgey getting pulled for 4 by the kid!
Blacky declaring his excitement was almost enough to have a public massy!
Nosmas' (not so) sly kip- how he wasn't "asked to leave" is beyond me!
Sledgeys super fast reflexes in dealing with my forgetfulness! Cheers!
fine knocks from the top 3 batsman.
the first spell from Aamer... then wondering why he was bowled into the wind while the spinner bowled with it????
Having Paul now on a hat-trick for not being ejected!
the noise as Kat approached the 100; the smallish crowd should be proud to have been so loud!
down the wicket at the cricket
Nospmas' kip
I have just this morning seen the wickets, as those that were there would know i missed them all... and the replays!
the run-out was pathetic, Kat fessed to being guilty of ball watching and therefore creating half the problem.
I can see the Aussies geting 500+ with easy this morning, and hopefully putting the Pakis in for the entire last session.
Lango, you missed out on a ripping day!

Great day guys. Good to put faces to names. I certainly was lucky to not get ejected. I also fell asleep on the train on the way home and woke up at Greensborough, very lucky.ReplyDelete
damn straight mate.ReplyDelete
i had a great time too.
i have fallen asleep on your train line after boxing day and woke up at Greensborough... unfortunately i was supposed to get off at watsonia!
- Nospmas27 December 2009 at 5:44 pm
I was actually supposed to get off there too. It is much closer to my place. The walk home seemed like ages. I am so hungover today. Had a yak first thing.ReplyDelete
funny though!
i pulled up remarkably well... just a bit tired because i woke a 4 and couldn't get bck to sleep.
- Outside Sledge27 December 2009 at 9:34 pm
Awesome day guys, had a ball! But then again it IS boxing day... From the early opener beers (like razor blades after picking Lefty up from the airport and getting into the Single Malts and beeers Christmas night) to Lefty's reaction to being at the "G", Everybody feeding off the energy of the day, Paul not getting kicked out, Bird watching with Blakie, sharing some cold ones (and a couple of hot ones), changing the vantage points, getting into the day, claiming some free Vodka, 300 runs...etc...etc. had an absolute ball!ReplyDelete
Nothing more could I have asked from a boxing day, but again, it's business as usual for us!
- leftriteout28 December 2009 at 12:45 pm
Thanks so much for a great day folks. The G is the most incredible place to watch cricket; and I can't believe you can get 'Ole Beam in there. There's nothing better than watching the greatest game with great people. Well done Paul on his 26th Boxing Day! Nospmas' cheeky recuperation session, Stoph showing me the ropes, Sledgie keeping me in check and Blakie's unnerving concentration.ReplyDelete
I still can't believe you can walk to the pub and have a beer in your hand, outside, in 6 minutes, you can leave your seat and have a slash or get another mixer in a flash, or sit at the highest point and suck on darts without a hassle. Well done Melbourne, you know how to host an event.
To all you lads, you're awesome, thanks again - hope to see you next year!
what a soda Ricky... What can you say, even the worlds best hands...ReplyDelete
like the blokes on the radio, can't tell you how much i'm impressed by Akmal- there is a future batting superstar!
glad you had a good day Lefty, hope you can make it again sometime.ReplyDelete
i'm getting mad at Siddle!ReplyDelete
get a few more tricks up your sleeve - like a fuller ball!- or get left behind.
Awesome. Big day Sunday for me. Lango and Son retrace some steps at the SCG.ReplyDelete
will be looking out for you and the offspring.ReplyDelete

Construction of Reinforced Soil Wall and Techfab Metal Gabion Retaining Wall for Soil Stabilization, at Mudked.Client:
Public Works DepartmentContractor:

TechFab (India) Industries Ltd.Design Concept:
M/s Best Geotechnics Pvt. Ltd.Approach Height:
For Reinforced Soil Wall - 2.0m to 10.0m For Gabion Metal Retaining Wall – 2.0m to 5.0m
There is a requirement for Retaining structure for Rail over bridge at Mudkhed, near by the water body. It is mandatory to protect the wall against scouring. Considering the structure alignment near by the water body, need arises for detail analysis and designing of retaining wall which can withstand the water current and also to be protected against scouring. Reinforced soil wall is the cost effective solution for the retaining wall. For protection against scouring gabion wall has been proposed in front of Reinforced soil wall, near by the water body. Reinforced soil wall founded above the embankment protected with Gabion retaining wall is designed as shown in the photographs, above.
Gabion Retaining walls are constructed, to protect against scouring are flexible structures which are very suitable in case of retaining structures for protection, near by the water body. Gabions can take settlement which may occur in such regions. Walls of varying height of (2.0m to 5.0m) were proposed. TechGeo Nonwoven Geotextile PR 20 was placed at the rear end of gabion wall which acts as filter.
Reinforced Soil Wall is constructed for Rail over bridge at Mudkhed. Walls of varying height of (2.0m to 10.0m) were proposed using square panels (1500x1500mm). RS Wall has been proposed considering the minimum foundation depth of 1 meter in the compacted sub grade. Outside RSW, is protected with Gabion wall. Height of the Gabion wall is decided considering the HFL. Gabions are suitable for energy dissipation against water current and also protect the wall against scouring. Engineered fill with design consideration are provided as per the drawings and methodology for the RSW and Gabion wall.
TechFab Metal Gabion and Reinforced Soil Wall satisfied all the technical parameters for their effective usage. The execution was successfully completed in time.
Acts as a "Filter" by preventing the backfill material from being washed out through Gabion face.
Acts as a "Separator" between the backfill material and the Gabion facia and thereby prevents the mixing of the tow.
TechFab Metal Gabion was suggested for retaining and scouring protection purposes in lieu of the conventional R.C.C Retaining Wall for achieving the following advantages:
Flexible structure compare to R.C.C Retaining wall.
Easy in construction, as it does not require skilled labourers.
Does not require curing time as in case of R.C.C Retaining wall.
Energy dissipation is possible due to the voids in the boulders, and also accommodates differential settlement very well due to its flexibility.
Cost incurred is very less compared to conventional retaining structures.

He's one of the most important people in his genre, and now he visits Aarhus with his newest project – Mala in Cuba.
The last couple of years the dubstep scene has been growing tremendously, it is to be heard at every major Festival all over the world and some of the best acts are enjoying star-status. At last years Roskilde Festival you could find several major dubstep acts on the program, and the genre sort of had it's own stage. But when talking about Mala, we can go back to when dubstep was still a smaller scene!
Back in the early '00s Mala began playing dubstep and spreading it from South London. At this time the scene was very little, and it was very difficult to get anywhere with your music. There were a tiny community of people playing it, but no one to receive it. However, these people were ready to give everything to spread the message of dubstep to the rest of the world.
To do this he formed the production outfit Digital Mystikz with his friend Coki and added Loefah and St pokes, and with them he also started the club night DMZ Night, the first club project to share dubstep on a wider scale. Since then, dubstep has gone from a small scene to being a worldwide thing and to be heard everywhere, with Mala as a frontfigure!
So far he's done a lot of different things in his career, and as he's been working as producer, DJ and label owner, it might have been time for a new project. Either way, back in 2011 Mala and DJ Gilles went to Cuba, last mentioned mainly to work on his project "Havana Cultura: The Search Continues". Mala however, went to explore the Cuban sounds, and came back with a bagpack full of inspirational sounds. This led to the critically acclaimed album "Mala In Cuba"(2012) and a worldwide tour, and this Wednesday he visits Atlas!
Above the article you can find the song Noche Suenos from Mala in Cuba and featuring Danay Suarez – performed live!

Hollywood is again on the hunt for a new Batman, which means comic book and film fans are going wild with casting suggestions — based, as you might expect, on physical presence, charisma, strength, steeliness, the usual. But what about the more casual elements of Batman? Who can capture the melancholy of the Caped Crusader grabbing a drink, or enjoying a nice afternoon stroll?
Maybe you've never thought about those private moments for the Dark Knight, but luckily, Sebastian Magnani has. His evocative photo series "Daily Batman" captures the superhero in the private moments rarely seen in the comic books and blockbuster movies, and in the process makes the character more intimate and personal than in those incarnations. We've selected a few of our favorites; the full gallery is available on Magnani's website, and you can also follow him on Instagram and Facebook.

Quick update on SkyPilot 3
Hey there!
I just wanted to give you a quick update on SkyPilot 3, which is a massive update. At the moment we are working on the reliability of the sync engine and the way the logbook data is stored. When this is done we will focus on functionality like exporting or importing existing logbooks from SkyPilot 2. After that we plan to release a public beta and add some final touches.
Be sure to follow us on @CyanicSpace and @SkyPilotApp for updates.
All the best, Christoph

This page will teach you how to write a newspaper article (and make it great). Hilton ( HLT ) and Marriott have by far the most popular hotel loyalty programs, according to a 2014 study by MMGY Global, and Wyndham ( WYN ) unveiled a plan for its hotels in early April that it hopes will jump it ahead in market share. Assuming no closing costs, that's a savings of $20 a month, or $720 over the next three years; the interest savings alone would be $707. That's a $26-a-month savings, or $1,248 over the next four years; the interest savings would be $1,235, loan calculators show.
Make sure there are no penalties for paying off either your original loan or your refinancing package early or you could see your savings transmission slip a gear. Kumar Galhotra, the Ford executive who serves as president of the Lincoln brand, says that Ford's market research in China uncovered something very interesting. The minutes showed policymakers continued to express broad concerns about lagging inflation and the weak world economy even as the U.S. job market improved further. Market expectations for a Fed hike in September fell from one in two to roughly one in three after the minutes were published.
About 7 billion shares changed hands on U.S. exchanges, compared with the 6.62 billion daily average so far this month, according to BATS Global Markets data. On China, Fed officials believed that a big drop in the Chinese stock market would have only limited implications for growth prospects in the world's second-largest economy. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have been controlled by the U.S. government since taxpayers bailed them out in 2008 during the housing market implosion.
A stronger dollar can act as a drag on the U.S. economy by increasing America's trade deficit, as U.S. exports become less competitive in overseas markets and foreign goods take more market share in the United States. WASHINGTON – The regulator for U.S. housing finance giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac told the two firms Wednesday to provide more support to low-income Americans taking out mortgages and refinancing home loans. The Federal Housing Finance Agency released goals for the two government-controlled firms for 2015-2017 that would advance agency chief Mel Watt's aim to widen access to housing credit.
Signs of an ebb in the disinflationary trend, combined with a tightening labor market and strengthening housing sector could give the Fed confidence that inflation will eventually rise toward its 2 percent target. Money managers would shake up their portfolios at the end of a reporting period, replacing market losers with some of the biggest winners over the past year.

Ah, this one is a random one and quite an up-to-date one.
Today is a special day for one special man. I have already spoken my piece to him last year and this year, I wish the same. Even if you are an old geezer or got turned into a baby, you are still our one and only Takahiro Moriuchi and don't you forget it. I just wish I can greet you personally, but I have full hopes that I will be able to do so in some way in the near future. *I just hope your hairstyle really does not change like you promised!*
I also gotten a new addition to my ONE OK ROCK stash! I recently cleaned my OOR stash and had given up, moving the entire stash in a larger container. I really have no doubts it will be full by the end of the month. I'm still waiting for Nagisaen!
Anyway, here is the beautiful addition. This CD is actually a limited EP of the band and only available in the Japan Tour still ongoing. The actual price of this CD is 1,200 yen but since it was released in Shizuoka Ecopa Arena, the price of this CD in the auctions reached up to 10,000 yen… which is really heartbreaking. Fortunately I was able to get this through a local store, whose proprietors attended the recent leg of the tour. This thing sells like pancakes XDD My review for the songs? I definitely love Skyfall since it had the blend of the Niche-Zankyo-Jinsei hits with some blend of the music you hear from Crossfaith, Crossrain and SiM, an epic sound collaboration indeed! The other songs were also good too. Manhattan Beach though is amazing because rumors say that Ryota is mostly the mastermind of the song. Like Nothing Helps and Deeper Deeper.
Finally, aside from the scheduled blog posts here, I will be doing the following backlogs XDD I'ved been delaying these since forever so I might as well do them even if its a year or more late. Yeah… I'ved been this busy since January of 2016.
- CD is Not Dead
- PULP Live World Online Store Guide
- Panagbenga 2017
- Random Baguio Posts
- HMV Japan Order Guide
- 10 Year Reminiscin'
With those noted out, I will be heading to Love for 10969 to do some much needed loveeee!!!
PS. The photo you see as the header of this short post is from Quick Japan. A post of my magazine peek for it is scheduled soon so watch out for it!!!

Some of my posts here have expressed my long held view that astronomy needs a journal devoted to the application of computer science/IT to astronomy. There are I think two reasons why such a journal is needed. One is that it reflects the growing importance of computational techniques in this era of "Big Data," and it provides the practitioners of astronomical computing with a vehicle for developing a strong publication record. So I am delighted to see the inaugural edition of "Astronomy and Computing," a new journal aimed precisely at meeting these needs. I would be even more delighted to see the journal published as open access, rather than through a subscription to the publisher Elsevier. The first edition can be viewed free of charge at http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/22131337. Here is a screenshot of the table of contents:
An introductory article by the editors states that the journal will focus on " …computation in support of astronomy, not on the astronomical results obtained using computation." Sample topics include:
Scientific software engineering
Computational infrastructure
Computational techniques used for astrophysical simulations
Data management, archives, and virtual observatory
Data analysis, data mining, and statistics
Data processing pipeline and automated systems
Semantics, data citation, and data preservation
The journal will publish research articles on new computational methods, software release and data release articles (but will not act as a repository), notes on practice, review articles, white papers, and target articles (used as lightning rods to solicit comment on a topic under active debate), as well as occasional special issues.
Volume 1 contains articles on such diverse topics as using GPU's to accelerate cosmological calculations, an ultra-fast image generator for wide-field astronomy, and a note on practices on source-code sharing. I am very happy to see such a diverse set of papers in Volume 1, as it reflects the broad range of computational work performed in astronomy. I hope that the community gets behind the journal and makes it a big success. I also suspect it may be a rich source of future blog posts …

Jennings Sneck Lifter
A dark beer with a reddish tinge, derived from the use of coloured malts, perfectly balanced with specially-formulated brewing sugars and English aromatic hops.
A strong satisfying ale, wonderfully warming and full of complex flavours which create an intriguing beer of great character.
First introduced in 1990 as a winter warmer, and has become a firm favourite in the portfolio.
Award-winning beer, recently receiving a bronze at the Brewry Industry International Awards held in Munich.
What's in a name?
In northern dialect 'sneck' means door latch, and the 'sneck lifter' was a man's last sixpence which enabled him to lift the latch of a pub door and buy himself a pint, hoping to meet friends there who might treat him to one or two more.
Tasting notes
A very individual style of beer - that has a fullness of flavour created by the chocolate and amber malt. A rich full-bodied ale with a good mouth feel. Easy to drink, but beware at 5.1% ABV.
Sizes available
- 9 gallon casks (40.9 litres)
- Also available in 500ml bottle

Lawmakers said last spring that new teachers in Illinois made on average about $39,000 a year. And the average teacher salary in the state was $64,516 in 2017, according to the Illinois State Board of Education. But those salaries also largely depend on where in the state these teachers work. The cost of living in Chicago and the suburbs, for example, is significantly higher than downstate, so higher salaries are necessary.
State lawmakers shouldn't set wages for specific industries in general. And selecting a publicly funded industry with an influential voting bloc during an election year is an even worse choice. Pandering never looks good. What's next? Setting minimum salaries for municipal or township or county employees?
"[That] approach to teacher compensation both limits a school district's local control and imposes a significant unfunded mandate on school districts," the governor wrote in his veto message.
School boards agree that it's a bad idea.Original Source

A few of our favorite yoga products and accessories to elevate your practice.
Jenny Brill (E-RYT 500; RYT 500) is the most down-to-earth, belly laugh-inducing yoga teacher we have ever met. Her alignment-inspired classes have graced the LA yoga scene for 18 years, and she currently teaches at Yoga Blend, Still Yoga, YOGA NoHo, and is part of the teacher training team at Black Dog Yoga. Want to laugh your asana off? Read our Q&A with her:
My style is unique because I'm unique. I bring my personality to every class. I'm a stickler for alignment and I think yoga should be fun. If you're not having fun, and you're not becoming a kinder, more patient, more loving person, yoga's not working for you.

Africa, Kenyan tech has also seen rapid growth. One highlight is mobile money transfer system M-Pesa, launched by the country's largest telecoms.
By Bate Felix and Matthew Mpoke Bigg — When Abasiama Idaresit started a digital marketing firm in Nigeria's bustling economic capital three years ago, he quickly learned how brutal life can be in a market where tech startups are in their infancy. No-one would lend him money to hire staff or pay for office space, so Idaresit spent eight months hustling the streets of Lagos, trying to convince clients his plan to help them develop online campaigns was a winner. "During those first eight months, I didn't make a dime… I was demoralised. At some point I wondered if it was worth it," Idaresit said by telephone from his Lagos office. It took a money-back guarantee before a baby products retailer gave Idaresit a break with a $250 contract to develop the shop's online presence. Within two months, the retailer's revenue began growing by $1,000 per month. Then it hit $100,000.
Idaresit's firm, Wild Fusions, is now a Google Adwords partner valued at $20 million, with revenues doubling year-on-year. It helps brands like Samsung, Unilever and Ecobank develop online marketing strategies for African audiences. Wild Fusion's struggles are typical for startups in Africa, as the world's poorest continent wakes up slowly to the opportunities of technology. In other emerging markets like Asia and Latin America, a tech startup with a smart idea in a booming economy might expect to attract investor interest, especially if competition is slim. Business leaders and investors said the sector in Africa is held back by lower Internet penetration as well as scarcity of early stage capital and a lack of management expertise. Many startups in the region are caught in a Catch 22 situation, said Churchill Mambe Nanje, who launched an online job search engine in Cameroon called Njorku.
"To hire the best talent to develop a startup, you need capital. Finding capital is hard because you need to have a track record and a viable product but to get those, you need capital," said Nanje, whose company has been profiled by Forbes Magazine as one of Africa's best startups. Part of the problem for African tech startups is that Internet use, despite mushrooming in the past decade, is low. Only 16 per cent of Africa's 1 billion people use the Internet, half the rate in Asia Pacific and below a global average of 36 per cent, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) says. The information and community technology sector contributed just 7 per cent to the continent's GDP last year, according to an African Development Bank report.
Economic gains from rising Internet usage are likely to be strong. For every 10 percentage point rise in broadband Internet penetration, economic growth increases by 1.4 percentage points, according to the World Bank. Experts say information and communication technology could help Africa overcome infrastructure inadequacies, satisfy rising consumer demand, boost regional trade and diversify economies, ending reliance on raw materials. But the problem is affordability. In its 2013 report, the ITU said that, though Africa has one the highest mobile broadband growth rates, services cost between a fifth and half of average income compared to just two to five per cent in other developing countries. In South Africa, the strength of the tech sector reflects the country's relative affluence. It has produced several billion-dollar companies, some of which have been snapped up by international tech giants. In East Africa, Kenyan tech has also seen rapid growth. One highlight is mobile money transfer system M-Pesa, launched by the country's largest telecoms operator Safaricom.
M-Pesa has enabled 67 per cent of Kenyan adults to access banking. Its transactions total about $1 billion per month. Revenue from M-pesa rose 20 per cent to 12.50 billion Kenyan shillings ($145.99 million) in the first half of 2013. West Africa's tech sector lags in terms of prominence and investment, experts say. It needs better and cheaper Internet access and broader adoption of smartphones. In Ghana, a booming regional economy, the number of mobile phone subscriptions roughly equals the population but only 3.5 per cent of the population is online, according to Kwaku Sakyi-Addo, CEO of the Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications. The scarcity and costliness of finance also impedes success. Banks in Ghana can charge up to 28 per cent interest for a business loan.
Venture capital firms like Intel Capital, JPMorgan, Summit Partners and Rocket Internet have occasionally financed African ICT firms but business leaders said the sector needs much broader sources of finance. In Silicon Valley, startups can receive up to $2 million from a range of funders including venture capital firms, 'angel' investors and private equity houses, according to Marcin Hejka, a Regional Managing Director for Intel Capital. Such a financial ecosystem does not yet exist in Africa, he says.

Get Your Own Comedians, New YorkWednesday, April 9th, 2008
I work with Nate, one half of Team Submarine. Unfortunately for Chicago, Nate and Steve are moving to New York to make their fortune. I hope they become big and famous because they're nice guys (at least Nate is) and they're way-funny. I just wish they didn't have to move to New York to do so. (So does Jim Croce.) I'm tired of talented Chicago folks packing up for New York and L.A.
Nate actually thinks it's a good thing. He suggested that keeping the backstabbing fame-seekers on the coasts makes Chicago a more pleasant place to perform — the people here tend to have different priorities. I'm sure there's truth to that, but I still think there should be more opportunities for Chicago-based performers.
How about this: when Conan O'Brien moves to The Tonight Show next year, whoever takes over Late Night should do the show from Chicago. I think it would be a big hit. Let's make it happen, folks. I'm writing a letter to NBC.
In the meantime, at least Schadenfreude isn't going anywhere. I was pleased to see them sticking up for Chicago in the Sun Times over the weekend:
They keep pounding away at the local troublemakers, despite the occasional word of advice from producers in New York or L.A., who insist Schadenfreude will never get anywhere making fun of Chicago.
"But it's not for them," Kaufmann says. "It's for the people who are in Chicago that we live with, who are our neighbors, who are our audience."
Team Submarine has a couple more shows before they move away. Go see them.

This blog post was written by our contributor, Deepu Babu.
"Can consciousness exist without interaction?" [48:27]
Every so often a movie is released, generally without too much fanfare or advertising, and for the most part, goes by unnoticed by the general public, but keeps itself alive in the underground circuit. You eventually watch it at the recommendation of a good friend, albeit a slightly eccentric nerdy friend. An hour or so later when the credits roll up, you lean back in your seat – with a colourful combination of confusion and understanding, but a knowing sensation of enlightenment.
This is one of those movies. It's a film where each action and scene is intentional and thoughtfully crafted from start to finish, one that's visually and aurally captivating, with a rich and unique storyline that's been equally translated on-screen by the relatively unknown actors. An underrated gem of a film, in my opinion.
Ex Machina, by definition, is a derivative of the latin word Deus Ex Machina, meaning "God from the Machine". It is used to indicate a contrivance (a thing which is created skilfully and inventively to serve a particular purpose) in a story where something all of a sudden has a power not really described before that resolves the principal conflict of the story.
The movie jumps straight into the crux of the story-line from the very first scene, where the protagonist, Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson) a computer programmer at a Google-esque internet search company (Bluebook), wins a prize to spend a week with the super genius CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac) at his futuristic remote mountain private estate. Once there, Nathan reveals that the competition was rigged and that Caleb was intentionally chosen to be the human component of a Turing test to be conducted on Nathan's latest humanoid A.I invention Ava (Alicia Vikander). A Turing test as explained by Caleb in the movie is "It's when a human interacts with a computer, and if the human doesn't know they're interacting with a computer, the test is passed. A passed test tells us that the computer has artificial intelligence". "If you've created a conscious machine it's not the history of man, that's the history of Gods".
As complex, random and diverse as human nature is, when observed it is almost very predictable (when faced with certain circumstances). It is this message that I feel is the director, Alex Garland, was trying to convey.
The first words that the CEO, Nathan says when he meets Caleb for the first time are:
- Nathan:Caleb Smith…
- Caleb: Hey (in an understandably awe-stricken/nervously confused tone)
- Nathan: Dude!
While Nathan may be described as one, he certainly does not come across as your standard uber-genius multinational CEO, especially after the above narrative. With a shaven head and hipster-envying, neatly groomed beard, the first few scenes show him ending off a boxing workout routine and then nonchalantly revealing his hungover state from the previous night before downing an antioxidant smoothie. Is this really how such a CEO would conduct himself around anyone? Probably not! But don't be fooled by that, there is more to this than meets the eye.
There are many complex themes at play in this intricate movie which may or not reveal itself initially, but nonetheless very intentional.
Nathan is almost Frankenstein-ish by playing God, isolating himself psychologically and geographically in an attempt to create artificial life. He is often bully-ish and belittles the timid Caleb to remind him who's the genius boss. This leads Caleb to side with Ava who eventually becomes sexually attracted to her, leading him stray from his initial mission to secretly help her escape Nathan's fortress.
This leads to another theme in the movie about false Gods. While Nathan thinks of himself as intellectually God-like due to his invention and the initial praises from Caleb, he appears irrationally psychopathic with his lover Kyoko (Sonoya Mizuno) and tries to root out the other false God at play – Caleb. When Ava tells Caleb not to trust Nathan, Caleb exhibits an almost God complex by a need to control things and chooses not to disclose this information to Nathan in order to protect Ava. Caleb naively believes that he's the chosen one to save Ava from the cruel clutches of evil God Nathan. This is representative of the false God theme where one believes they are bigger than the Gods themselves.
Another theme that is portrayed in the movie is the use of the internet and search engines. Caleb's every action is monitored and recorded by Nathan in the movie, closely mirroring our current experience online (a la NSA?). While Ava's intelligence is powered by Bluebook's worldwide search data and browsing patterns, it is also revealed that Ava is physically based on Calebs porn preferences (very similar to current online marketing and advertising behaviours). Poor Caleb was click baited, hook line and sinker.
There is an almost undeniable feminist theme that plays out. Ava's escape is a triumph for her, for us the audience invested in her journey, and for women who have struggled and sacrificed to have their voices heard – a need for basic human value. Nathan is almost brutishly caveman-like in his bullying behaviour, sexually domineering and binge drinking habits, reinforcing the feminist theme.
While I may have missed some themes, these are the ones that stuck out for me. These are themes that represent the limitations of man. A man that strives for progress and perfection, but is flawed and incomplete at the same time. A great movie that definitely passes the Turing test.
My Final Score:
- Cinematography : 9/10
- Script : 8/10
- Costume & set design : 9/10
- Music : 8/10
- Visual Effects : 9/10
- Acting : 8/10

We thought we'd give you and those left waiting around for you some top tips on taking the drama out of getting ready.
1.) Exercise. The most amazing way to put some colour in your cheeks and leave you looking healthy and gorgeous.
2.) Get a Facial during the week. You'll look and feel refreshed and your skin will sparkle, avoiding the need for lots of heavy foundation.
3.) Prep your outfit. Before buying things, make sure they fit you and look good. No one feels good making that last minute outfit change.
4.) Don't try something new today. If you want to go for a new look or hairstyle, try it during the week. Going crazy with the crimpers then remembering it's not the 80's anymore isn't nice, trust me.
5.) Exfoliate and shave your legs. No time? Wear a pair of tights or pull on your skinnies.
6.) Swipe on a neutral lip gloss – It makes lips look full and healthy and adds color so subtle, you don't even need a mirror to apply it.
Simples. Book your SkinBase microdermabrasion today here (a few treatments and you'll feel like you don't have to wear make up at all…!)

Disney's "Big Hero 6" soared past Christopher Nolan's "Interstellar" at the box office this weekend, as both big-budget films had strong launches.
According to studio estimates, the animated action comedy grossed $56.2 million in the U.S. and Canada, edging out Nolan's space drama. "Interstellar" pulled in $52.2 million, which covers the film's early limited release on Tuesday evening and wide release on Friday.
If the early estimates hold up, for only the fourth time in history two films grossed more than $50 million apiece in their shared opening weekend, as had been projected.
In June 2013, "Monsters University" opened to $82.4 million and "World War Z" opened to $66.4 million in the same weekend. "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted" opened to $60.3 million the same weekend in 2012 that "Prometheus" opened to about $51 million. And in 2008, "Wanted" opened to $51 million the same weekend that "Wall-E" opened to $63 million.
Despite the "Interstellar" and "Big Hero 6" numbers, the box office is still down 7% from the same weekend last year and down 3.8% year-to-date, according to research firm Rentrak. However, studios and analysts said the upcoming holiday season could help ticket sales in the U.S. and Canada come close to matching last year's annual record of $10.9 billion.
Disney's "Big Hero 6," which cost about $165 million to make, is a loose adaptation of a little-known Marvel comic book. The film attracted largely younger crowds and families: An estimated 58% of moviegoers were 25 and younger, and 70% were families. The audience was evenly split male-female.
"It's just ahead of what we said we thought we'd do coming into the weekend. It sets us up in a really great way for a run ahead," said Dave Hollis, Disney's head of distribution. "It's encouraging to have been ahead of a movie like 'Interstellar,' which is obviously made by one of the great filmmakers of my lifetime."
"Big Hero 6" has been well received: It earned an A grade from audience polling firm CinemaScore and 91% "fresh" rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.
Directed by Disney veterans Don Hall ("Winnie the Pooh") and Chris Williams ("Bolt"), the CG-animated film follows a rebellious robotics prodigy named Hiro Hamada (voiced by Ryan Potter) and a guileless healthcare robot named Baymax (Scott Adsit).
The film comes on the heels of Disney's 2013 hit "Frozen," the winter musical that went on to become the highest-grossing animated film of all time. It has generated more than $1.2 billion in ticket sales worldwide.
"If nothing else, the success for the weekend is a testament to this creative renaissance that is well underway at Disney animation studios," Hollis said. "The successes they've had, from 'Tangled' to last year's 'Frozen,' shows they are really firing on all cylinders."
Meanwhile, Nolan's almost-three-hour film attracted largely older crowds. An estimated 75% of moviegoers were 25 and older. The audience was 52% male.
The film follows Cooper (Matthew McConaughey), an engineer and pilot who has been called upon to find a hospitable new planet because Earth is turning into a giant dust bowl. Co-financed by Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros., the science drama cost about $165 million to make.
"This is definitely the broadest appeal movie that's going to be in the marketplace this November," said Rob Moore, Paramount's vice chairman. "You have a lot of audiences that really connect with the film."
Paramount began releasing "Interstellar" in select theater early last week. Advance showings of the space drama played on 240 film-only screens — including 70mm Imax, 70mm and 35mm — in 77 markets across the U.S. and Canada before it expanded to more theaters.
Imax generated its largest percentage of box office ever for a first-run release; the film grossed $13.4 million on 368 Imax screens, a per-screen average of more than $36,000. The film was also Imax's best opening for a November release. "Skyfall" held the previous record with $12.6 million.
Paramount hoped that the midweek release would help generate buzz for the film. It used a similar tactic in 2011 with the launch of "Mission Impossible — Ghost Protocol" five days before the film opened in wide release. The action film, starring Tom Cruise, went on to gross about $209.4 million in the U.S. and Canada.
Heavy marketing also played a large part in the release of "Interstellar." The studios partnered with Google to create an immersive website called "The Interstellar Space Hub."
They also partnered with Fandango and Vice Media's Motherboard channel to create a sweepstakes that would send one ticket buyer to the edge of space.
Such marketing "helps the film stand out and helps consumers realize, 'Oh this is something that is an event and I should be part of it,'" Moore said.
The film earned a B+ grade from CinemaScore and a 73% "fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Many liken Nolan's latest film to Alfonso Cuarón's 3-D space drama "Gravity," which opened with a robust $55.6 million in October 2013 — the biggest October debut to date.
David Fincher's "Gone Girl" jumped from fourth to third in its sixth weekend at the box office. The Twentieth Century Fox film, which pulled in $6.1 million, has a domestic total of $145.4 million to date.
After two weekends on top, Universal Pictures' "Ouija" fell to No. 4. The PG-13 film added $6 million this weekend, making its cumulative domestic gross about $43.5 million.
The Weinstein Co.'s "St. Vincent," starring Bill Murray, rounded out the top five in its fifth weekend. It pulled in $5.7 million, raising its domestic total to $27.4 million.
In limited release, Focus Features' "The Theory of Everything" also did well. It grossed $207,000 in five locations, a per-location average of $41,400.

Apple led a rebound in technology shares and thereby aiding all three major equity indexes on Thursday, as trade worries eased after China welcomed new talks with the United States.
Meanwhile, Dow Jones Industrial Average inched closer to its all-time high of January 26, closing at its highest since Feb. 1 and just 1.8 percent below the Jan. 26 close. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq had already moved past their January peaks to record highs in prior weeks.
The S&P technology index was up 1.2 percent on the day, its largest percentage gain since August 2, due in part to Apple's 2.4 percent gain.
The timing of a new round of trade talks remains unclear as Trump said the United States was under no pressure to make a deal with China.
Consumer prices rose less than expected in August and underlying inflation pressures also appeared to be slowing, a report from the U.S. Labor Department showed.
The trade-sensitive industrial index rose 0.5 percent. Caterpillar was up 0.9 percent and Boeing chalked up a gain of 0.6 percent.
Shares of Home Depot fell 1.2 percent, Lowe's was down 1.4 percent and Beacon Roofing Supply dropped 5.9 percent as Hurricane Florence, which began lashing coastal North Carolina, was downgraded to a Category 2.
The S&P consumer staples index lost 0.4 percent as shares of Kroger weighed on the sector. Kroger slid 9.9 percent after the supermarket chain's same-store sales missed estimates as customers were put off by changes in how it stocked merchandise.
Chipmakers bounced back from a slide on Wednesday, with the Philadelphia semiconductor index up 1.2 percent.
Qualcomm rose 4.0 percent after it said it would buy back about $16 billion of its stock.
Approximately 6.7 billion shares changed hands on the major domestic equity exchanges, as compared to the 6.1 billion share daily average for the past 20 trading days, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Consumer Price Index Surprises
Consumer prices rose less than expected during August as increases in gasoline and rents were offset by declines in healthcare and apparel costs. Underlying inflation pressures also appeared to be slowing.
According to a report released by the Labor Department Thursday morning, the Department's Consumer Price Index increased 0.2 percent last month after a similar gain in July. In the 12 months through August, the CPI increased 2.7 percent, slowing from July's 2.9 percent rise.
Excluding the volatile food and energy components, the CPI edged up 0.1 percent. The so-called core CPI had increased by 0.2 percent for three straight months. In the 12 months through August, the core CPI increased 2.2 percent after rising 2.4 percent in July.
Despite the moderation in price increases last month, inflation pressures are steadily building up, driven by a tightening labor market and robust economic growth.
The Federal Reserve tracks a different inflation measure, the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index excluding food and energy, for monetary policy. The core PCE price index increased 2.0 percent in July, hitting the U.S. central bank's 2 percent target for the third time this year.
Minutes of the central bank's July 31–Aug. 1 meeting published last month indicated "several participants commented that increases in the prices of particular goods, such as those induced by the tariff increases, would likely be one source of short-term upward pressure on the inflation rate."
Last month, gasoline prices rebounded 3.0 percent after dropping 0.6 percent in July. Food prices edged up 0.1 percent, matching July's rise. Food consumed at home was unchanged.
Owners' equivalent rent of primary residence, which is what a homeowner would pay to rent or receive from renting a home, rose 0.3 percent in August after advancing by the same margin in the prior month. The rent index rose 0.4 percent.
Healthcare costs decreased 0.2 percent last month, matching July's drop, as prices for doctor and hospital services fell. Apparel prices tumbled 1.6 percent, declining for a third straight month. Prices for new motor vehicles were unchanged last month and the cost of used cars and trucks increased for a third consecutive month.
Jobless Claims at 49-Year Low
According to a report released by the Labor Department Thursday morning, the number new claims for unemployment benefits fell unexpectedly last week, hitting the lowest level in 49 years, the result of a robust labor market.
Initial claims fell by 1,000 claims to a seasonally adjusted 204,000 claims for the week ended September 8, the lowest level since December 1969. Data for the prior week was revised to show 2,000 more applications received than previously reported.
Only claims for Maine were estimated last week. The claims data covered last Monday's Labor Day holiday. Claims tend to be volatile around public holidays.
The four-week moving average of initial claims, considered a better measure of labor market trends as it irons out week-to-week volatility, fell by 2,000 claims last week to 208,000 claims, also the lowest level since December 1969.
The labor market is viewed as being near or at full employment. It continues to strengthen, with nonfarm payrolls increasing by 201,000 jobs in August and annual wage growth notching its biggest gain in more than nine years. Job openings hit an all-time high of 6.9 million in July.
The Federal Reserve's Beige Book report, which was published on Wednesday, described the labor market as "tight throughout the country, with most districts reporting widespread shortages."
Though there have been reports of some companies either planning job cuts or laying off workers because of trade tensions between the United States and its major trade partners, they have been partially offset by increased hiring in the steel industry.
However, there is a risk of widespread job losses if the Administration presses ahead with tariffs on nearly all Chinese imports. Trump last week threatened duties on another $267 billion worth of Chinese goods on top of a $200 billion tariff list that is awaiting his decision.
Thursday's claims report also indicated the number of people receiving benefits after an initial week of aid fell by 15,000 claims to 1.70 million for the week ended Sept. 1, the lowest level since December 1973. The four-week moving average of the so-called continuing claims decreased by 8,250 claims to 1.71 million claims, the lowest level since November 1973.

How to Create Good Content that Ranks Good in Search Engines
We have seen SEO techniques vary month after month, and have witnessed the rise and fall of different tactics in this market. Google has always been a step ahead of the SEO executives, and has continued to challenge the techniques experts follow to rank their sites illegally. Back in the good old days, when the concept of SEO was just born, keyword stuffing, i.e. embedding the keyword multiple times in your post, used to be a good practice to get a better rank. But the change in algorithms, the practice is now considered outdated. Google bots crawl every site on a periodic basis, analyzing both the static as well as dynamic pages, checking the quality of the content posted on the website, and its relevancy with a particular keyword. People refer to content as "King", but this word is simply not enough to understand the importance of quality content. In my opinion, it would be much better to refer content as the "God". Good content is the soul of a website … [Read more...] about How to Create Good Content that Ranks Good in Search Engines

How To Find The Best Domain Name For Your Website
So you are planning to become an online marketer or blogger. Let's check what you will need: A CMS like WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla. A website. A web host. A domain name. In this article, I will share a few things you need to consider before choosing a domain name. A bad domain name can hurt your blog in the long run. One of the most common mistakes people make is using their personal name instead of a brand (HarshAgrawal.com, Rajnish.com, etc.). While this can work, it is not recommended. Firstly, most of the great names are already taken. Something like blog.com will not only be unavailable, but if you want to purchase that kind of name, expect to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars. Another thing: Try to go for a .com name; it's good for branding and for SEO. If you're targeting only Indian traffic, for example, then getting a .in name is wise. But if you're trying to be global, you will want a "generic/global top-level … [Read more...] about How To Find The Best Domain Name For Your Website

Happy Hump Day!
Soo I did something this week. Last weeks paycheck was one that I could "play" with. That is all the tedious bill paying has been done (save for my cell phone) and now I have money just burning a hole in my pocket. What did I do with it? Why what any normal book crazed/book obsessed person would do. I bought more books!
When they come in I'll be sure to do a book haul. I'm expecting 17. All of which are coming at different times. Pretty sure I have a problem by the way. It was only supposed to be until I reached the free shipping minimum limit. Then I found a gift card for Barnes and Noble……I got a little carried away. In the mean time (since it will take about 1-2 weeks for all of them to arrive) here's what I'm picking up this week…….
Emily is about to take some risks and have the most unexpected summer ever. Hellogiggles.com says, "Basically I couldn't be more in love with this book," from the bestselling author of Second Chance Summer and Amy and Roger's Epic Detour.
Before Sloane, Emily didn't go to parties, she barely talked to guys, and she didn't do anything crazy. Enter Sloane, social tornado and the best kind of best friend—someone who yanks you out of your shell.
But right before what should have been an epic summer, Sloane just…disappears. There's just a random to-do list with thirteen bizarre tasks that Emily would never try. But what if they can lead her to Sloane?
Apple picking at night? Okay, easy enough.
Dance until dawn? Sure. Why not?
Kiss a stranger? Wait…what?
Getting through Sloane's list will mean a lot of firsts, and with a whole summer ahead of her—and with the unexpected help of the handsome Frank Porter—who knows what she'll find.
Go Skinny Dipping? Um…
I don't think I've read any Morgan Matson books yet? I have about four on my shelf and one that I started but put back down. This is a book I've been wanting to read for quite a while. It came as part of a box set. Is it silly that I felt a little sad taking off the shrink wrap to the box? It was so pristine, now it's exposed! Oh well. Books are meant to be loved.
Not too long ago there was quite a buzz about this book. The reviews are pretty outstanding. Averaging to a little over 4 stars. Though if you look at the reviews most of them are actually 5 stars. It's a little intimidating with all the high praise surrounding this book. I'm trying to go in with neutral expectations. It just sounds so good!

FRANKFURT—Of all FIFA's sponsors, Germany's Adidas AG has been one of the most visible faces, and therefore, could have a lot to lose.
Soccer has been the German sportswear giant's backbone for decades and its ties to FIFA run deep. Since 1970, Adidas ADS, +0.95% has supplied the balls used in all FIFA World Cup games. Adidas's three-stripe logo is pervasive in World Cup marketing. Adidas also supports other FIFA events including the Beach Soccer World Cup and Women's World Cup.
Coca-Cola Co. KO, +0.18%, Emirates Airline, Hyundai-Kia Motors, Sony Corp. SNE, +0.20% and Visa V, +0.68% are also top FIFA sponsors but Adidas is the only sports company in the group.
Adidas is by far the biggest sports company in Germany, which won last year's World Cup. In late 2013, it extended its sponsorship of the FIFA World Cup Ball to 2030.
Also read: FIFA President Sepp Blatter expected to win elections on Friday
Hours after Swiss authorities arrested seven FIFA officials in Zurich early Wednesday, Adidas said it expected "the highest standards of ethics and compliance" from FIFA and that it encouraged FIFA to "continue" to follow such standards. An Adidas spokeswoman said Thursday the company is "in regular talks" with FIFA on issues including ethics but details of the talks were confidential.
Adidas and other sponsors haven't been implicated in the scandal. "These continuously negative headlines are neither good for soccer, nor FIFA, nor FIFA's sponsors," said the Adidas spokeswoman.
Adidas "should and no doubt will condemn this corruption scandal," said John Guy, an analyst at Mainfirst Bank in London.

Song Preparation: I encourage you listen to these songs each week so that you are familiar with them by the time we sing on Sunday.

I would encourage you to go to itunes or any other music download site and purchase these songs for your music library. That way you can spend more time listening to them and learning the lyrics!
Here is some scripture that goes well with the songs we will sing this Sunday.
- Shout It Out - Isaiah 49:13
- Grace Like A Wave - Luke 1:49-50 Msg; Romans 5:12-21
- First And Only - Psalm 40
- None But Jesus - Acts 4:12
- Center My Life - Scripture and Theology

|Re: Sorting fields while searching!
|Mon, 01 Jun 2009 21:16:43 GMT
It's really unclear to me what PhysicianFieldInfo.FIRST_NAME_EXACT.toString() returns. I assume the intent is to return a field name, but how that relates to FIRST_NAME_EXACT(Field.Store.YES, Field.Index.UN_TOKENIZED) doesn't mean anything to me. Could you provide some details? Note that if you specify a sort field that isn't in the document it has no effect (i.e. if your PhysicianFieldInfo.FIRST_NAME_EXACT.toString() returns something like "2309884@"). I'll ask the dumb question: you *are* passing your sort object(s) to the search, right? Finally, take some care about capitalization. My memory is weak, so check that your casing on the sort fields isn't messing you up. I'd think about lower or upper case everything you expect to sort on when indexing since you're not displaying it anyway.....

Alun Armstrong may be one of our best-loved TV stars but he's never forgotten his roots which is why he's happy to be playing a lead role in the future of a small theatre in Stanley.
The North East-born actor will be back in County Durham next week to lend his support to the Civic Hall which is re-naming its theatre after him.
"I'm absolutely delighted - it's a great honour," says Armstrong whose wide-ranging stage, film and TV career includes gangster classic Get Carter, BBC's New Tricks and now a guest slot in the coming Christmas special of Downton Abbey.
"I'm proud of my roots and it's very important to me to maintain strong links."
Armstrong, from Anfield Plain, was asked by Claire Howe, the new manager of the Civic Hall where he once played guitar on stage as a 16-year-old, to lend his name to the venue - previously known as Lamplight - and he was happy to oblige.
A special night to mark the changeover will see him the focus of attention of next Friday's A Night To Remember, a variety show with a bill including comic favourite Bobby Pattinson.
"The last time I was there was for my sister's wedding; she had her reception there 40-odd years ago," he recalls.
But he's regularly back in the region where two cousins still live as well as the best friends he's had since school who now live in Chopwell and Weardale
Growing up, he'd never thought of becoming an actor and credits his school English teacher Dennis Earl, who staged a Shakespeare play every year, with setting him on the path.
"He was a remarkable man. He put these plays on and spent absolutely all his spare time devoted to them. It was like being at drama school. He taught us how to read Shakespeare verse and the rudiments of stage craft.
"He became my mentor and coached me and when the National Youth Theatre came to the North East for the first time to look for kids he managed to get me into it. He was a very, very important person in my life."
His parents, who were both preachers while his father also worked as a winding engineer at the local pit, supported him all the way.
"Stage is my first love and I did almost exclusively stage when I was younger and spent a long time in the RSC and National Theatre," he says. "I've always loved it."
Get Carter was one of his earliest film roles and he remembers being in a radio play, doing theatre in education work in Sheffield - "not even properly an actor", when he heard of a film about to shoot in Newcastle with Michael Caine.
"I found out who the casting director was and I wrote a letter - the only letter I've ever written for a job -and they got back to me and said 'send photos'.
"I didn't have any - I hadn't been to drama school. I was naive so went to a railway station, put my half crown in a machine, got three passport photos and send them off!
"I didn't know I was supposed to have big 10 by 8s."
But the pictures went down well. "And that was it, I got the part - playing a naive Geordie!"
Soon Alun will be returning to his first love of theatre, in the Eugène Ionesco play Exit the King, in Bath but is always on the lookout for work that brings him back to the North East, such as Downton Abbey, which he filmed recently at Alnwick Castle. He plays the butler of the family who host the Crawleys on a a grouse shoot and manages to irritate their servants.
He says of his character: "He's very pernickity and particular and he gives them a hard time so they want to get their own back and gang up on me!"

Insurance Restoration is a unique service we offer.
Insurance Resrotation should not be confused with remodeling and is unique in its own right, requiring the ability to have the evidence of construction unnoticed and to put a building back into it's original condition. A restoration can be as simple as repairing smoke damage, or depending on the incident, putting a house back together after a fire.
