Hey all!
As promised, here is a bit more from the first playtest of the new Dungeoncrawler playtest!
So, as I said, we took two heroes... I took a human mage, and my buddy took a human warrior.
The first room in the dungeon was a small room, with a few orcs and a few goblins in it. (Ignore the treasure piles above, they were acting as door placeholders.)
We fought bravely... the warrior tanked the fights as best he could, although a few orcs and goblins made it to the wizard, whose fireball spells did some damage.
Soon the enemies were cut down, and we checked out our loot... a few crappy helmets, but the Ring of Combat was an amazing early-game find!
We continued through the hallways of the dungeon for a bit, with no enemies in sight...
... until we came to another small room a few armored orcs in it! This was a BEAST of a fight; the mage's fireball spell was KEY in killing the orcs, but they did a bunch of damage. Their 2d6 worth of armor, combined with the warrior being only armed with a short sword, make this fight tough.
We moved on through the dungeon after we defeated the creatures, turning left into a large room with a big statue in the middle... and smack dab into a HUGE horde of orcs and goblins, with an ogre in support!
Again we let the warrior tank the fight, as the wizard was already hurt from the last fights. The wizard blasted away with a new magic scroll he had found, a Lighting scroll, which allowed him to hit several opponents at once... focusing on the ogre really beat the massive creature up, and eventually the party was able to bring down their foes.
Our intrepid heroes pick through the loot!
We proceeded on, going through a door on the opposite wall (which isn't in the photos above for some reason?) and bam... another horrible encounter. This time we had orcs and goblins coming from behind, and more from the front!
Here we panicked a bit... we fled backwards, as the wizard fired off a few shots with his newly-acquired bow... the idea was to get away from the open space and into a more confined space, where the warrior could do most of the heavy lifting. And the bad guys swamped us, knocking down both heroes health, the ogre in particular hitting hard.
Again the wizard proved hugely helpful, using his lighting spell to blast life off of several guys, and the warrior finished them off!
Soon the ogres and most of the orcs were dead, and there were just the goblins to deal with... and somehow our heroes made it through!
We then went north a bit, finding another empty small room, and then down a corridor... where two more ogres were waiting, and the scurry of feet in the darkness behind us turned out to be some orcs!
The heroes retreated, trying to find a good place to fight from...
... and the ogres leapt on the warrior, beating on him with their clubs. The wizards lighting scroll did a bunch of damage before burning out, and the warrior was able to survive and finish off the two ogres.
That left the orcs to deal with, who the heroes managed to dispatch as well!
We called the game at that point, having made some significant modifications to the rules and some big changes to several aspects of it. Taken overall, however, the game REALLY really worked; it was fun and exciting and incredibly well balanced, while being SERIOUSLY intuitive!
Here are our characters at the end... the warrior had a leather helm, a shield, and some plate mail, along with a short sword and a pair of scrolls (fireball and healing) he was holding on to... the wizard had his bow, a newly-found scroll of lighting (the equipment deck was poorly shuffled and still all in one deck, resulting in a LOT of good gear being found when it shouldn't have... but whatever, we were just testing:) ), his ring of combat, and some leather armor and a leather helmet.
So that's it! I'll have more as we work on the game!
Thanks for coming by!

Miami Gardens - Opa-locka
Contractor claims Opa-locka manager Steve Shiver sought bribe
Just one month after his hiring, Opa-locka City Manager Steve Shiver — the focus of spending audits and ethical scrutiny in assorted past government dealings — has been accused of trying to shake down a local contractor.
George Howard, in a letter obtained by the Miami Herald, contends Shiver solicited a $150,000 bribe in exchange for the city paying his final invoice for work on a sewer project —a $272,000 bill that the manager and Opa-locka City Commission have previously refused to pay.
Howard, president of United States Association of CDC, wrote the Oct. 16 letter after he met with Shiver to demand payment for the pump station project, claiming the manager "expressly stated" that it could only be made if Howard paid a kickback to Mayor Myra Taylor. She was the only commissioner who voted to pay Howard's final bill last week.
"Upon hearing your insidious requests, I emphatically stated that not one cent of this money would be given to the mayor," Howard wrote in the letter, which was copied to the mayor, city commissioners and building director. "Such an act would be blatantly illegal and would in no way be something that my company or I would ever be a party to."
Shiver, a former Homestead mayor and one-time Miami-Dade County manager, declined to comment about Howard's bribery allegation. "Unfortunately, I can't talk about it, but it will all come out in the end," he told the Miami Herald. Taylor, the mayor, did not return calls or emails seeking comment.
Adding to the intrigue in a city infamous for financial and political chicanery: Court records show the accuser has a checkered financial and legal history himself. Howard, who lives in Pembroke Pines, has been sued several times since South Florida's real estate market collapsed — leading to judgments against him for failing to repay hundreds of thousands of dollars in mortgage loans,failing to pay rent as a tenant in two Miami-Dade office buildings and passing a bad check to an insurance company.
In an interview at a 48-unit apartment complex his company has been renovating in Opa-locka, Howard reiterated his allegation, saying Shiver was explicit about the bribe request in their Sept. 24 meeting at City Hall. "I stand by the letter 1,000 percent," he said. "If I had gone to the mayor and complained about what he said, she would have thrown me out of her office. That's why I put it in writing ... The city manager must answer for what he did."
Howard — who noted in his letter that Shiver asked a subcontractor in the meeting to leave so he could discuss the alleged bribe attempt — said he has not filed a formal complaint with local, state or federal authorities.
Since last year, Miami-Dade County government has been pursuing a foreclosure action against one of Howard's companies, Opa Lakes Development, and other parties for their failure to repay a $2.52 million low-interest loan that was meant for the renovation of the complex at 2491 NW 135th St., near the pump station. Howard's construction crew has almost completed the residential project, including a new coat of orange and rust paint, tile floors, white windows, household appliances, water heaters and electrical wiring.
The four-story building, bound by a tall white fence facing Opa-locka Boulevard and a canal in the back, should be ready for occupancy by the end of the year, according to Howard. Seventy potential tenants are on a waiting list. He said once he receives an occupancy permit, the now-completed pump station can service the building.
"I'm trying to build a community here where people can feel safe, go to work and raise their families," Howard said.
In a response to the county's suit, Howard said his rental project was stalled for months because Opa-locka officials "continuously imposed" changes in the pump station project — a dispute that is at the root of the dispute over the final bill.
Shiver, unlike Howard, has been a public figure for more than two decades.
In early September, Shiver was hired as city manager of Opa-locka in a 3-2 vote, with the mayor supporting his appointment. Although he has never been sanctioned for ethics violations or charged with any wrongdoing, Shiver brought plenty of baggage from his previous experiences in city government in Homestead and as Miami-Dade County manager.
He served as county manager from 2001 to 2003 in the administration of then-Mayor Alex Penelas, after spending four years as Homestead's mayor from 1997 to 2001. He was first elected to the city council in 1993.
A 2010 county audit cited Shiver's role as a private businessman in dealings with the Homestead Community Redevelopment Agency, which was established after Hurricane Andrew ravaged the region nearly two decades earlier. Auditors found the agency squandered millions of dollars in taxpayer dollars with nothing to show for the spending.
In 2007, Shiver convinced the Homestead CRA to pay $1.9 million to a company with whom he worked to acquire 4.2 acres of depressed real estate known as "shotgun property," according to the audit. The land was covered with small, rundown "shotgun-style" homes. The audit found the sales price for the homes was more than market value, the houses were eventually demolished and the land was not developed.
The CRA had borrowed the money from Homestead to purchase the land and planned to repay the loan with proceeds from the sale of another property, a blighted bowling alley outside the CRA district. Shiver, then representing an investment firm, offered the city $500,000 for the bowling alley property, which was appraised at $2.6 million in 2012. After residents complained, Shiver and the firm dropped their bid.
He defended his actions in a past interview with the Herald: "We did things that were exactly what the city wanted to do at the time."
The latest allegation lodged against Shiver, accusing him of soliciting a bribe from Howard, arises from a sewer project with a messy history.
In 2012-13, the city gave Howard a $450,000 contract to rehabilitate the pump station #5 at 2332 NW 135th St., which was designed to serve not only the immediate neighborhood but also his renovation of the nearby apartment complex. Howard said he took on the sewer project so he could make progress on his building.
Howard said city officials later ordered changes that added $272,000 to the total cost — a claim that Shiver has strongly disputed at two public meetings this fall. City records show that additional work was needed because of soil conditions, a sinkhole and rerouting of manholes. But it's unclear whether Opa-locka officials ever signed off on any changes to the original project, which was completed earlier this year.
Howard detailed those changes in an invoice and discussed them at the public meetings. But the city commission rejected the contractor's demand for payment. On Oct. 14, the commission voted 4-1 not to pay him, based on advice from Shiver and the city attorney. The mayor was Howard's only vote of support.
"If we can offset a lawsuit, let's see if we can," Taylor said at a late September meeting. "At least talk to them."
Now, Howard seems to be leaning toward legal action against the city. His letter concluded: "In consideration of these extremely unusual and illegal actions addressed in this letter, as of today, you and the city of Opa-locka are hereby on notice that the USACDC's next communication to your office will be from my attorney."
Miami Herald staff writer Michael Sallah contributed to this report.

Love this Jeep!
By cyndim on Sunday, March 12, 2017I have had old jeeps (cj-7, Cherokee, 2004 Grand Cherokee, and the Commander). This was my favorite jeep - loved everything about it. The way it drove everyday and the way it handled snow and rain. Loved the look and the interior. Was in an accident in this jeep and it handled extremely well.

Best Vehicle I Have Owned!
By Razorback Fan on Monday, October 17, 2016I purchased this vehicle brand new due to the looks of the new body style. But what has amazed me is the overall performance. It's an SUV that handles like what an SUV should, but it rides like a car. Very quiet smooth ride. I have the V6 motor and I get awesome gas mileage for an SUV. Overall I would rate this vehicle an 8 out of 10. The only few things I would have changed is more cup holders and a great place to hold your cell phone. By the way, I have had zero issues with my Jeep. Outstanding quality.

Love, Love, Love My Jeep!
By Thomas on Friday, December 15, 2017I absolutely love my Grand Cherokee!! I purchased my Gray 2017 Grand Cherokee Limited 5.7L in September of 2016, and have put nearly 50k miles on it. My husband and I do a lot of outdoor activities such as running, mountain biking, snowboarding, kayaking, paddle boarding, and sailing. Having a Jeep had always been a dream of mine and my Grand Cherokee lives even further beyond my expectations. The exterior is absolutely gorgeous and the LED Headlights are pretty amazing especially in some tough winter conditions here in the Northeast. I have a THULE Roof Rack System installed and Jeep made it extremely easy with their roof rails to install the system. In addition to that, I tow my boat which is around 4500Ibs and the Jeep can tow it with no issues whatsoever. The interior is really where the Limited shines however. I would go as far as to say that this is a luxury SUV. The leather seating is absolutely amazing with the heating and memory functions. Overall, I love my Jeep and will have many more in my future!!

Just two short years ago, the Calgary Flames faced their latest playoff opponent: the Anaheim Ducks.
After defeating the Vancouver Canucks six games in the first round, the 2014-15 Flames quickly met their end at the hands of the Ducks. While the Canucks series had been tight and aggressive, the second round wasn't even comparable. The Ducks outmatched the Flames in virtually every way, and were it not for a dramatic Game 3 – Sam Bennett getting Martin Gelinas'd, Johnny Gaudreau tying the game with seconds to go, Mikael Backlund scoring the overtime winner on a delayed penalty call – they probably would have been swept.
No matter how you slice it, though, they didn't have a chance.
This year might be different.
The Flames won 45 games this season; the Ducks won 46. The Flames have a 5v5 CF of 50.55%; the Ducks had 49.65% through 81 games. On the other hand, the Ducks did have a +23 goal differential while the Flames managed just +5 – and the Ducks' GF of 53.16% (through 81 games) is noticeably better than the Flames' 49.12%.
Let's put it this way: the Ducks are still favoured to win the series. They're the division winners and they beat the Flames four out of five times this season, outscoring them 17-14. The Flames' win? That totally unexpected and very fun 8-3 contest in which they scored five goals in six minutes out of nowhere. If you need to find some way to get hyped:
But just because the Ducks are the favourites doesn't mean they'll win. The games are played for a reason, after all. And the Flames are further along than they were two years ago – much further – so they may yet have a chance.
Certainly more of one than they had in 2015, at least.
Time to go back to Disneyland!
Per the NHL, the official schedule (all times MT):

Museum Anatomy: Human Body As Canvas (Pics)
Artists Laura Spector and Chadwick Gray recreate mashups of famous paintings onto the human body.
Artist duo Laura Spector and Chadwick Gray's work, Museum Anatomy are a series of photographs of paintings from museums across the globe that have been recreated in such elaborate detail onto Chadwick's body that it is difficult to identify the human form in the photos.
Chadwick and Spector rightly describe their work as:
The recreated paintings of these historic portraits recapture the subjects in their own moment in history. The resulting photographs reveal a unification of art combining antiquity, history and technology in a contemporary context.

Phone sanga with Tapan Da. I ask him about the accusations that Sadhu Baba would not accept maha prasad from Gaur Nitai deities. Tapan Da said that cannot be true because Gaura is Krishna and His prasad is Krishna's prasad. I then ask him whether one should wash one's hands after doing mala japa, because some Vaishnavas claim the japamala is prasadi and before cooking one should wash one's hands. Tapan Da replies that such theories are not mentioned in Haribhakti Vilasa.ReplyDelete

This is a follow-up note to a nice paper of Markus Mueller on the possibility of a machine-invariant notion of Kolmogorov complexity, available here: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0304397509006550
It may still be possible to get a unique (up to scaling) invariant measure (with infinite sum) over the UTMs by invoking something like the Krein-Rutman theorem and applying it to the Markov chain's transition operator. I haven't yet verified that all the conditions hold.
This measure would then be an encoding-invariant way to compare UTMs' "intrinsic complexity" in the sense of "number of bits needed to simulate".
Consider the function \(a(M_1,M_2)=2^{-d(M_1,M_2)-d(M_2,M_1)}\) where \(d(M_1,M_2)=\min\left(|x|\middle|x\in\{0,1\}^*:\forall y\in\{0,1\}^*: M_1(xy)=M_2(y)\mbox{ unless neither of these halts}\right)\). The reversible Markov chain with transition probabilities \(p(M_1,M_2)=\frac{a(M_1,M_2)}{\sum_{M'_2}a(M_1,M'_2)}\) has a bounded positive invariant measure \(\mu(M)=\sum_{M'}a(M,M')\). Of course, as the post showed, the total measure is infinite. Also, because the chain is reversible and transient, the invariant measure is far from unique - indeed, for any machine \(M_0\), the measure \(\mu(M)=p^{(0)}(M,M_0)+2\sum_{n=1}^\infty p^{(n)}(M,M_0)\) will be a bounded positive invariant measure.
It seems tempting (to me) to try to get a probability measure by modding out the output-permutations (that the post uses to show this isn't possible for the full set of UTMs). To this end, consider the set of UTMs that have no output. (These will be unaffected by the output-permutations.) We can try to use the induced sub-digraph on these to build a probability measure \(\mu\). The measure of each UTM should be a function of the rooted edge-labeled digraph \(G_M\) rooted at that UTM.
The most natural topology on rooted edge-labeled infinite digraphs is the one generated by the sets \(\{G:G'\mbox{ is isomorphic to an induced rooted edge-labeled subgraph of G}\}\) where \(G'\) ranges over finite rooted edge-labeled digraphs - we could hope that \(\mu\) is continuous according to this topology. Unfortunately, this can't work: if \(\mu(M)>0\) then \(\mu^{-1}((\frac{1}{2}\mu(M),\infty))\) must be open, and so it must contain some finite intersection of the generating sets; however, every such intersection that's nonempty (as this one is) contains infinitely many UTMs, so the total measure must be infinite as well.
In order to understand what the measure \(\mu\) that was constructed from \(d\) will reward, here's the sort of machine that comes close to \(\sup_M\mu(M)=3\):
Let \(M_0\) be an arbitrary UTM. Now consider the function \(r(n)=n-2^{\lfloor \lg n \rfloor}\) (or, really, any function \(r:\mathbb{N}^+\rightarrow\mathbb{N}^0\) with \(r(n)<n\) that visits every nonnegative integer infinitely many times), and let \(L=\{x\in\{0,1\}^*:|x|>2,x_{|x|-1}=x_{r(|x|-1)},x_{|x|-2}=x_{r(|x|-2)}\}\). (The indices here are zero-based.) Choose \(x_0\in L\) such that \(x_0\) has no proper prefix in \(L\). Then, construct the UTM \(M\) that does:
s := ""
while s not in L:
# if there is no next character, halt
s := s + readchar()
if s == x0:
This \(M\) will have \(\mu(M)>3-2^{-|x_0|}+d(M_0,M)2^{-|x_0|-d(M_0,M)}\).
\(M\) here is optimized for building up internal states (that are then UTMs that are efficiently encoded), while also being very easy to reset from these internal states; in other words being easy to "encode" from the UTMs it efficiently encodes, using at most 2 bits (an average of \(\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}\)). This is somewhat interesting, but clearly doesn't capture the kind of computational expressivity we're primarily interested in.
These results are still a bit unsatisfying.
The first half constructs an invariant measure which is then shown to be unsatisfactory because UTMs can rank arbitrarily high while only being good at encoding variations of themselves. This is mostly the case because the chain is transient; if it was positive recurrent then the measure would be finite, and UTMs ranking high would have to be good at encoding (and being encoded by) the average UTM rather than just a select family of UTMs.
The second half looks at whether we can get better results (ie a probability measure) by restricting our attention to output-free "UTMs" (though I misspoke; these are not actually UTMs but rather universal semidecidable languages (we can call them USDLs)). It concludes that we can't if the measure will be continuous on the given digraph - however, this is an awkward notion of continuity: a low-complexity USDL whose behavior is tweaked very slightly but in a complex way may be very close in the given topology, but should have measure much lower than the starting USDL. So I consider this question unanswered.
It looks like Theorem 1 can be improved slightly, by dropping the "only if" condition on \(p_{CD} > 0\). We can then code up something like Kolmogorov complexity by adding a probability \(\frac{1}{2}\) transition from every site to our chosen UTM.
If you only want the weaker statement that there is no stationary distribution, it looks like there's a cheaper argument: Since \(\Phi\) is aperiodic and irreducible the hypothetical stationary distribution \(\pi\) is unique. \(\Phi\) is closed under the action of \(\Delta\), and (2) implies that for any \(g \in \Delta\), the map \(\Gamma_g\) is an automorphism of the Markov chain. If the (infinite) transition matrix is \(T\), then \(\Gamma_g\) can be considered as a permutation matrix with (abusing notation) \(\Gamma_g^{-1}T\Gamma_g = T\). Then \(T\Gamma_g\pi = \Gamma_g\pi\) and so \(\Gamma_g\pi = \pi\) by uniqueness. So \(\pi\) is constant on orbits of \(\Gamma_{\Delta}\), which are all countably infinite. Hence \(\pi\) is everywhere \(0\), a contradiction.
The above still holds if (2) is restricted to only hold for a group \(G < \Delta\) such that every orbit under \(\Gamma_G\) is infinite.
I think the above argument shows why (2) is too strong; we shouldn't expect the world to look the same if you pick a "wrong" (ie. complicated) UTM to start off with. Weakening (2) might mean saying something like asserting only \(p_{CD} = \sum \mu(\Gamma) p_{\Gamma(C)\Gamma(D)}\). To do this, we might define the measures \(\mu\) and \(p\) together (ie. finding a fixed point of a map from pairs \((p, \mu)\) to \((p', \mu')\)). In such a model, \(\mu\) constraints the transition probabilities, \(p'\) is stationary; it's not clear how one might formalise a derivation of \(\mu'\) from \(p'\) but it seems plausible that there is a canonical way to do it.
Context: At this weekend's MIRI workshop on logical uncertainty, we were talking about Markus Mueller's paper on priors over Turing machines and bitstrings (as those seem analogous to priors over logical statements).
Mueller's original result examined a directed graph structure over prefix computers, where an edge is given by a prefix that causes one computer to simulate another. This gave rise to a Markov chain structure, but Mueller showed in two different ways that this Markov chain was not positive recurrent, and thus that it would not give rise to a non-arbitrary prior.
However, I noted that the Markov chain structure was set up to punish computers that were difficult to simulate, but not to punish computers that were bad at simulating others. Some natural ways to modify the transition probabilities defeated Mueller's more direct counterexample.
However, in this draft Jacob and Janos showed that no stationary transition matrix (with nonzero coefficients) on that digraph of universal prefix computers could be positive recurrent, or even null recurrent (going beyond Mueller's result).

Garnier Fructis Style Pure Clean Finishing Paste is a styling product with 99% naturally-derived ingredients. As a result, it has no silicones, no parabens, and no dyes. It claims to offer pure performance with a 24-hour clean hold.
I love that this product has ZERO stickiness. A lot of pomades are annoyingly tacky. However, this finishing paste has practically NO hold. According to the label, this is supposed to have a level three "extra strong hold." Whatever that means … But, I'm not entirely sure why Garnier states this claim given that the hold is pretty minimal despite the fact that it contains acacia gum, an ingredient derived from the acacia tree for its ability to impart shine and provide a natural hold.
Truth be told, I purchased a three-pack of this product to meet the Amazon.com threshold to get free shipping. LOL. I originally thought I would be using it as an edge tamer. However, the lack of hold forced me to reinvent my original purpose for buying this product. On a whim, I decided to use it for a twist-out. The results? Ahhhmazing!
Seriously, I had great definition, zero stickiness and, when combined with my DIY lavender spritz, uber moisturized tresses. I loved the results so much, I rocked twist-outs for like two months straight! That's something I have never done. In fact, it wasn't until I came to my last jar that I thought to use it for a wash 'n go. My hair loved that, too! It gave me a fluffy, voluminous wash 'n go on day ONE! So, I'm thinking I'll actually buy this finishing paste on purpose next time. 😉 And, apparently, Garnier has several other products in their Pure Clean line. So, I might have to check into those as well. If you have wavy or curly hair, I think the Garnier Fructis Style Pure Clean Finishing Paste is worth a gander. And, the best part? This product is eco-conscious. Done. And, done!

Frederic Vaucamps makes strange tall cakes with meringue and chocolate shavings. He calls them Merveilleux, and they're actually quite impressive. It's hard to compare the Merveilleux de Fred to traditional precisely decorated French pastries made by Genin or Laduree, but it's rerally worth a visit. Where can you buy such a Merveilleux? Fred has opened four stores in Paris, five in the rest of France, and one in Belgium. What was very fascinating was to admire them making the cakes behind the counter, quite an experience.
They also make mini versions of the Merveilleux (you can have 9 small ones for only €13), which is good for those who want to try different flavors.
Fred makes different flavors ranging from caramel to speculoos. We really liked the Incroyable (white chocolate/speculoos) and the Magnifique (praline); it's light, crispy and not as sweet as I was expecting. My pal is not as fond of the Merveilleux as I am as he found they lack of texture (maybe he's the who lacks subtility).
What's the price of a Merveilleux? We paid about €20 for six people which is a very good deal for such a good pastry. Fred also just opened a shop in London where he sells tons of Merveilleux to our fellow Britons.

I assume you meant to say, "Great work by the pilots subsequent to the collision", right?
And here's the local news story:http://www.kctv5.com/story/19749953/faa-small-planes-collide-midair-near-chandlerThat Arrow is a tough little plane. Penetration stopped cold at the spar. Both were very lucky things were not just a few feet further inboard. It appears they impacted at 90 degrees relative bank to each other and my guess would be they were avoiding a head-on by both banking away to their left, Cherokee probably descending and Arrow climbing, since it appears the remains of the right wing tip of the Cherokee are on the top side of the Arrow wing.
You bank to the right to avoid mid air collision. Right of way.
Quote from: domsaleo on October 14, 2012, 04:14:14 AMYou bank to the right to avoid mid air collision. Right of way.Sure, if....(1) You even realized you were about to have a mid air. If you never see the other plane, there's nothing to bank for(2) The other plane wasn't on his right side to begin with(3) You actually remember that rule in the split second you have to make a decision, and act on it.
! Right of way rules don't cover every scenario.
I am having trouble understanding the wisdom of having what sounds like three aircraft (two helicopters and a Cherokee) vectored to search for the Bonanza. I kept wondering if the controller was thinking to himself "what have I done? I'm about to cause a secondary mid-air". The controller watched the Bonanza descend at an apparently controlled rate. Why not simply call local emergency crews to the scene rather than vectoring aircraft together whose pilots have probably not been trained to fly search patterns? Am I being overly cautious?

One last ride. That was the feeling I had at the end of "Something Beautiful," the 7th episode of Better Call Saul's fourth season.
This four year journey Kim and Jimmy have been on throughout this entire series is nearing its end, but not before their departing paths converge on one common interest: defending Huell Babineaux.
Kim and Jimmy have been drifting away from each other since the start of the season. But the heartbreaking opening scene and Kim's lack of reaction to learning of Jimmy's burner phone business showed further how the flame between these two has burned out.
I've been thinking since the start of the series that the inevitable end would be some tragic event or explosive argument between the two (and that may still be coming). But if "Something Stupid" is any indication, Kim and Jimmy's relationship will end with a whimper, not a bang.
But for now, the pair have at least one more cause to fight together before their partnership dissolves.
We'll get to Kim and Jimmy's tragic tale later. But let's start with Mike as he tries to control a crew of Germans going through a really bad case of cabin fever.
"They need fresh air and a change of scenery."
The opening scene moved the story line ahead about 8 months, which means we are at the point with Werner and his crew where they expected to be done or close to done with Gus's lab.
But as it turns out, they are not even halfway to completion. And the job takes a major setback when one of the crewmen (whose name is Casper) knocks over a supporting poll.
Kai, the one Mike wants an eye kept on, starts a confrontation that requires Mike speaking in German (as it turns out, that was just one of the phrases he knew) to settle things down.
The tension was thick when Mike went to visit Werner and his crew in their living quarters. All the excitement over the bar, the theater, the soccer field, etc… is gone as no one is talking to each other, and Casper (the guy that hit that pole in a forklift) has a number of beer cans sitting around his chair.
It is at this point that Werner recommends to Mike that his crew needs a "change of scenery."
"Perhaps we should temper our expectations."
Meanwhile, Hector is making progress. He's up and Dr. Bruckner is practicing the mode of communication we all know Hector so well for.
But a key moment (one that Gus noticed, but Dr. Bruckner did not) will end Hector's remarkable progress. As a nurse enters the room, Hector knocks over a glass of water on purpose. so he can check out the nurse bending over in front of him. But when Gus sees this on the video, he knows Hector is now fully aware of who and where he is.
And what better way to torture a fully aware Hector than to leave him fully aware that he is unable to walk or speak the rest of his life. The doctor even went so far as to say that at some point Hector could be able to walk and talk again if his therapy continues. But Gus says they should "temper our expectations" and encourages her to "delegate others" to work with Hector.
"Well, that was something."
That opening sequence!!! That might have been the best scene of season 4 as one five minute sequence moves through about 8 months of time as Kim and Jimmy take their divergent paths. They quietly brush their teeth together when the scene starts. But as Kim moves into her office and routine at Schweikart and Cokley and Jimmy's burner phone business moves forward, they eventually brush their teeth separately. When at home, Kim sits in the bed while Jimmy sits on the couch watching TV. And when the pair go to a party at Schweikart and Cokley, Jimmy pisses off Schweikart and Kim with his elaborate (and expensive) out of state plans for a firm retreat.
"Jimmy, whatever you're doing, don't"
Later, Jimmy, in his usual spot for selling phones, is approached by a cop in plain clothes. The cop, Officer Platt, is upset that drug dealers are being released from prison because they used burner phones sold to them by Jimmy to make their transactions.
Jimmy is unapologetic. When asked "nicely"by the cop to stop selling the phones to criminals, Jimmy refuses. The two get into an argument when Huell walks up. Huell is wearing headphones, so he can't hear what they are saying or Jimmy's warnings not to attack. So Huell, doing his job protecting Jimmy, hits Officer Platt with the bag Huell's carrying.
This "assault on a police officer" will get Huell two and half years in prison, time the Cajun has no plans to serve.
But Jimmy pleads with him not to jump bail. Jimmy says he's got a plan, and that plan is to get Kim on Huell's case.
Kim agrees and meets with Assistant District Attorney Suzanne Ericsen, who is charging Huell with all that time. And even though Kim points out how unfair the sentencing is (even going so far as to research sentencing in similar crimes), ADA Ericsen will not back down.
On her way to meet with Huell, Kim has a revelation. She goes and picks up a ton of office supplies and calls Jimmy. Jimmy had said he was going to take care of this issue his way (whatever that means), but Kim begs him to stop. She's got a plan, a plan we will have to wait until next week to find out the details of.
Of Note:
-I expected more of a fight when Kim found out Jimmy's been selling burner phones to drug dealers. But 8 months seems to have blunted her "I care about Jimmy's actions" meter significantly.
-Another sign of change between the pair was Kim's flat of rejection of Jimmy's scheme to get Huell off by defaming the character of the cop. On one hand, Kim is no longer interested in Jimmy's schemes. On the other, Jimmy has never suggested something so dangerous.
-Jimmy only has one month before he can resume practicing law. And the current date of the show, based on the final passed drug test we see from Jimmy, is January 2004.
-"Need a Call? Buy From Saul." We get oh so closer to "Saul Goodman, Attorney at Law."
-I understand why Mike has such issues with Kai considering the attitude he shows Mike each time they interact. But how about Casper, the guy that knocked down the pole? He clearly has a drinking problem, and that issue is likely the reason he set the team's progress back with the forklift accident.
-I wonder if Hector knows it's Gus providing the care for him. And will Dr. Bruckner fight Gus on his decision with Hector's care? I mean, she has to know Gus is cutting off Hector's care prematurely.
Just three episodes left, and things are really picking up for the conclusion of season 4. See you next week.

SigAlert founding honored on a day of slick roads, traffic jams
The roads were slick, the sky hazy and the Monday morning commute at its worst when officials gathered in front of the Caltrans building in downtown Los Angeles.
"I can't think of a better day to honor the SigAlert than today," said Doug Failing, executive director of highway projects.
The officials -- led by Councilman Tom LaBonge -- came together on the 57th anniversary of the SigAlert, an invention that has become central to Southern California's driving culture. (In fact, one of the most searched terms online in Los Angeles happens to be SigAlert.)
The SigAlert is named for its founder, Loyd Sigmon -- a radio engineer who worked for one of Gene Autry's stations -- who discovered a way police dispatchers could trigger an inaudible tone that would alert receivers at radio stations to traffic disruptions. The first transmissions were made this week in 1955. Sigmon died in 2004 at age 95.
A SigAlert now is defined by the California Highway Patrol as an unplanned closure of a lane of traffic for 30 minutes or more -- a term profoundly dreaded by L.A. commuters.
Matthew W. Roth, a historian with the Auto Club of Southern California, said the SigAlert was a bridge between two iconic parts of Southern California cultures: innovations in media and technology and roadways clogged with cars.
The technology enabled broadcasters to provide up-to-the-minute coverage of traffic conditions, allowing motorists the opportunity to cruise down an open road.

The Chicago Bulls have fired head coach Tom Thibodeau after five seasons.
The Chicago Bulls fired head coach Tom Thibodeau after five seasons, the team announced Thursday.
Thibodeau, the 2010-11 NBA Coach of the Year, was dismissed even though he had two years and around $9 million remaining on his contract, and led the team to the playoffs each season.
In a statement, the coach thanked Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf, reaffirmed his love of basketball, and said he was excited about his future with USA Basketball.
"We are proud of our many accomplishments, fought through adversity, and tried to give our fans the full commitment to excellence," Thibodeau said.
But the Bulls advanced past the second round of the playoffs only once, losing to the Miami Heat in the 2011 Eastern Conference finals. This season, Chicago went 50-32 and earned the Eastern Conference's third seed, but the Bulls lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Eastern semifinals.
"While the head of each department of the organization must be free to make final decisions regarding his department, there must be free and open interdepartmental discussion and consideration of everyone's ideas and opinions," Reinsdorf said.
"These internal discussions must not be considered an invasion of turf, and must remain private...When everyone is on the same page, trust develops and teams can grow and succeed together. Unfortunately, there has been a departure from this culture.
"To ensure that the Chicago Bulls can continue to grow and succeed, we have decided that a change in the head coaching position is required. Days like today are difficult, but necessary for us to achieve our goals and fulfill our commitments to our fans."
Reinsdorf also thanked Thibodeau in the statement and said he "respected his love of the game."
Thibodeau compiled a 255-139 record in his tenure with the Bulls, including a 23-28 playoff record.
"When Tom was hired in 2010, he was right for our team and system at that time, and over the last five years we have had some success with Tom as our head coach," Chicago Bulls general manager Gar Forman said in a statement. "But as we looked ahead and evaluated how we as a team and an organization could continue to grow and improve, we believed a change in approach was needed."
ESPN's Dave McMenamin reports that security escorted Thibodeau from the United Center.
The New Orleans Pelicans and Orlando Magic are interested in speaking to Thibodeau about their head coaching vacancies, according to ESPN.com.

Saw a pretty good piece on www.searchstorage.com where Beth Pariseau interviewed Jay Kidd at NetApp about file and storage virtualization. (BTW, good article, Beth!)
Jay offered his views on a number of topics, including aspects of storage virtualization.
Of course, Jay's views were colored a bit by the NetApp perspective.
Not that it would ever happen to me .. ;-)
But I thought there was a strategic side to the discussion that was worthy of exposing. I think it shows a contrast in views between two technology companies.

When your application and the libraries it references reach a certain size (65k or more), you encounter build errors that indicate your app has reached a limit of the Android app build architecture. Find more information on this error here. Here are some steps that you can follow to overcome this:
- Check for unwanted jars in your project and remove that to reduce method count. (Strongly recommended)
- Export your unity project to google android project. (If step 1 does not work)
Steps to export a project to Android Studio
- Open Build Settings.
- Select the Google Android Project checkbox.
- Click Export to export the unity project into Android.
- Unity will build the project, export it to android, and store the android project on your specified path.
Here, VMAX_Unty_Ad_Sample is unity project name, other folders are library projects folders used on unity side.
- Open Android Studio and select New >> Import Project.
- Set the file path to exported android project.
- Once it's imported, you will see that all the library projects will also get imported to Android Studio and the final studio project structure will look like this.
- Open the file build.gradle in your project.
- Add this part to the android section:
1234dexOptions {incremental truejavaMaxHeapSize "4g"}
- Also add this line to the defaultConfig section:
1multiDexEnabled true
- Add this line under the dependencies section:
1compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
- Finally, clean the project. The final build.gradle file will look similar to this:
- Open AndroidManifest.xml file and in <application> tag write this line.
- Copy the library (.jar) files to your application's libs folder and add this line in the dependencies tag of build.gradle:
1compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
- If the library folder has assets (like resource/drawable/asset), then you have to add that library as module in Android Studio.
Select the module you want to add to project.
- You also need to add the module to your project dependency.
