I'm really overwhelmed by the response to Rookie so far! When you work hard on something it's easy to suddenly wonder if you've been inside your own head for too long and second guess how it'll translate to people who don't live in your brain, so thanks to everyone who's been reading and thinking and talking and whatnot, seriously. This blog will go on too, and these are some photos I took in Miu Miu's Fall 2011 collection for an event I am hosting with them for Fashion's Night Out. I neglected to write about many collections this season (I will forever have a list of things to write that I will never finish) and now it feels too late, but these pictures probably best describe all the nostalgic vibes I felt for Miu Miu.
Critically I can tell you it was 1940's-y, but that's not what made it nostalgic for me. This kind of nostalgia is much more personal than a general vintage feel. Or maybe EVERYTHING seems like that because I'm a growing gal, as they say. Bleh. Whatever. Pictures.
This last one doesn't fit in with the others as well, just because I'm obsessed with the red sunglasses but thought they needed a girl gang-y back-to-school-vibes picture instead of a soft sigh-y one. One of these days I will work on making my face look less like it hates everything. Last week I was told at school that I look "eternally unimpressed." I swear I'm actually totally freaked out and confused and happy by most things around me. Except mayonnaise when it gets in the corner of people's mouths when they're eating, aguuuuughhhhghgh.
The patch on my jacket is for the band Girls, which has actually elicited the question, "Oh! Cause you're a feminist?" So I just want you all to know that this patch is a political statement because I'm...reminding people...that...girls exist.
Here's the FNO invite. There will be a fun contest as explained below. Isn't this photo great? That whole ad campaign!! Seriously. (Also on my list of stuff to write about: Yay, talented people of our generation/LOVE issue 6 covers!)
So come stop by! It'll be a lot of fun. I will even make a special effort for my bone structure to lean on the "smiling" side.

News and Events: Press releases
Bauchi State Government, FME, UNICEF and Civil Society Organisations launch Nigeria Girls Education Initiative (NGEI) State Chapters to promote girls education in Nigeria
Bauchi, 28 March, 2008: In a concerted effort to address gender disparity in girls education in northern Nigeria, the Bauchi State Government, the Federal Ministry of Education (FME), UNICEF and Civil Society Organizations, today at the Multipurpose Indoor Sports Hall in Bauchi, kicked off the launch of the Nigerian Girls Education Initiative (NGEI) State Chapters in Nigeria. The launch of the NGEI was performed by the newly crowned Grand Patron of NGEI in Nigeria, Nigerias First Lady, Hajiya Turai Umaru Musa Yar Adua, in the presence of the Governor of Bauchi State, Malam Isa Yuguda; the Minister of State for Education, Hajia Aishatu Jibril Dukku, the wives of four northern governors including the First Lady of Bauchi State, Hajiya Aisha Yuguda, UNICEF Nigeria Deputy Country Representative, Dr. Robert Limlim, and representatives of DFID.
In Nigeria, 10 million of the school age children are out of school. Most of them are girls.
The Nigerian Girls Education Initiative, NGEI, an off-shoot of the United Nations Girls Education Initiative (UNGEI)) launched in April 2000 at the World Education Forum in Dakar by the United Nations, is a collaborative initiative of the Federal Ministry of Education and Development Partners, particularly DFID, UNESCO, USAID and UNICEF, to coordinate efforts at improving girls education in Nigeria.
The launch of the NGEI State Chapters in Bauchi is to recognize the leadership role that is being played by the incumbent first lady of the state in drawing attention to the gender disparities which exist in education against girls and to encourage all stakeholders to take definite actions to redress the imbalance.
It is gratifying to note that three years after its inception, the Nigerian Chapter of the United Nations Girls Education Initiative has become more proactive in enriching national dialogue on gender parity in education and women empowerment in our country, said Hajiya Turai Yar Adua, Nigerias First Lady. We all have an abiding duty to join hands in this worthy initiative aimed at enabling the Nigerian girl-child optimally realize the potentials of her creative and productive capabilities.
Various interventions have been undertaken by Federal and State Governments, Development partners and civil society organizations as well as communities to promote girls education in Nigeria. With support from the Norwegian Government, UNICEF in Partnership with government successfully implemented the African Girls Education Initiative (AGEI) from 2001-2003. AGEI laid the foundations for the development of Strategy for Acceleration of Girls Education in Nigeria (SAGEN) and then SAGEN Plus, with support from other major international development partners, which was launched by UNICEF and the Federal Ministry of Education in July 2003.
Currently, the Girls Education Project (GEP), a major partnership between FME, DFID and UNICEF in support of girls education, launched in December 2004, with a £ 26 million funding commitment from DFID, has recorded tremendous gains in girls education in Nigeria. The project aims at eliminating gender disparity in education and further improving the quality of life of girls in Nigeria through a collaborative approach to girls education. The project is currently under implementation in six northern states of Nigeria (Borno, Jigawa, Bauchi, Katsina, Sokoto and Niger), covering 720 schools in a region where gender gaps are highest.
With the £ 26 million funding provided by the DFID, some of the identified barriers to girls education such as poverty and economic issues; unfriendly child learning environments; lack of adequate classroom space, furniture and equipment; inadequate water, health and sanitation facilities; high pupil-teacher ratios and inadequate trained school teachers, are being addressed through the GEP project and other UNICEF interventions by the provision of conducive classrooms with desks ad benches; separate ventilated improved latrines for boys and girls in schools, including hand pump boreholes; provision of books, learning aids and recreational facilities in schools and the training of teachers. Non-Formal education centres have also been supported alongside the GEP schools to provide in-come generation skills to girls and women without a chance for education to address the issues of poverty.
As a result of the above interventions and others from partners in specific focus areas, tremendous results in increase in enrollment rates have been recorded in promotion of girls education. For example, in the GEP focus schools, the girls enrolment rate has increased by an average of 78% from 2005. This has resulted in an overall reduction of gender gaps in the GEP focus schools from 23% in 2005 to 15% in 2007. Attendance rates have also improved, with an increment in the GEP focus schools from 81% to 85%, while that of girls has improved from 76% to 83% from 2005 to 2007 respectively.
For Nigeria to achieve the goal of being among the largest 20 economies in the world, she must rapidly educate the children, most of all, the girls. Educating girls is known to be the basis for sound economic and social development. Educating girls produces mothers who are educated and who will in turn educate their children, care for their families and provide their children with adequate nutrition, says Dr. Robert Limlim, UNICEFs Deputy Representative. Therefore educating girls translates to better health for the children, reduction in child morbidity and mortality, thus triggering off a snowball effect of achieving all the other MDGs in a sustainable manner.

Dennis Rodman, former NBA star, sentenced to community service in family court
(CBS/AP) ORANGE, Calif. - Former NBA star Dennis Rodman was sentenced in family court Tuesday to 104 hours of community service on four counts of contempt for failing to pay child support.
Court Commissioner Barry Michaelson also placed Rodman on three years of informal probation. The sentence includes the condition that Rodman pay current child and spousal support obligations.
"My suggestion is to use your talents as a motivator, as a fine, fine athlete and as a fine person to assist others in need," Michaelson told the retired basketball player.
The sentencing put an end to one of the disputes in the long running case, which began when Rodman's now-ex-wife filed for divorce in 2004. But Rodman still faces additional contempt charges and allegedly owes back child support in an amount that Michelle Rodman's attorneys say exceeds $800,000.
On Tuesday, the towering former star rebounder said he'd do whatever community service was required near his home in Florida, possibly working with children, and did not begrudge his former wife.
"It's all about the kids," Rodman, 51, said of the ex-couple's two children after the hearing. "It does suck the fact that it had to come to this."
Rodman was found guilty of the four counts of contempt last year for child support owed in 2009 and 2010.
Rodman's attorney Linnea Willis said the four charges stemmed from a period of time when he was expected to pay $50,000 a month in child support. That amount has since been reduced - to $4,500 for child and spousal support - and Rodman is now current on those obligations, she said.
The outstanding disputes over back child support and additional contempt charges will be addressed at a hearing on June 22.
Willis has claimed that Rodman owes far less money in back child support than his ex-wife's attorneys allege.
Court documents filed earlier this year indicated that Rodman was "broke." His tax return from 2010 shows he earned roughly $150,000, but his financial manager said he owes significant amounts in back taxes. She also said Rodman's alcoholism has tarnished his image and made it difficult for him to obtain corporate endorsements and other work.
Rodman was a bad-boy star of the Detroit Pistons and won three NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls. He also played for the Los Angeles Lakers, and lived in California's affluent Orange County before moving to Florida. He was inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame last year.

Build an Off-Road HeroPosted in Project Vehicles on April 1, 1998
Becoming an off-road hero is not as difficult as it seems, if you've got the right equipment. We're not talking about driving ability here--that's something that needs to be developed with practice or is some innate skill a lucky few are born with. Instead, we'll concentrate on two very popular vehicles and the simple steps needed to turn them into all-around quality four-wheeling rigs. It doesn't require a mega-buck custom buildup either, just time-honored, proven upgrades that most of you can buy or build.
The two most popular 4x4s we see on the trail, and the ones most owners write to us about, are Chevys and Jeeps, more specifically the '73-'87 solid-axle Chevy and GMC trucks and the '76-'86 Jeep CJ-7. Are these the best 4x4s ever? Not according to owners of other brands, of course, but these two types of rigs are blessed by the shear numbers of vehicles produced and more importantly, the wide range of aftermarket accessories available for them. For instance, an Isuzu Trooper may be a good 'wheeling rig, but there are virtually no aftermarket lifts or other specialty items to make it perform better off-road. On the other hand, any 4x4 shop worth its salt will have a 4-inch Chevy lift kit in stock, along with most other common accessories.
Dont think that were forsaking the other fine vehicles many of you drive, as most of the products and modifications are applicable to Fords, Dodges, and others. For that matter, some vehicles, such as the Suzuki Samurai, never seem to need a steering brace or other accoutrements that the larger rigs do. Every vehicle has its own strengths and weaknesses, and these tips for Jeeps and Chevys are the basics from which to build upon. We even went so far as to informally poll a few 4x4 shops to get their recommendations based on practical experience, and all their answers were surprisingly similar to what weve seen ourselves. Take a look at the sidebars below to get a few great ideas.

My thought for today can be found here.
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...While they may not be pretty to look at, I think you'll enjoy this simple confection that tastes a bit like a Twix bar. I found the recipe in the February issue of Family Circle magazine and its simplicity intrigued me. I figured that any recipe that used a combination of milk chocolate, caramel and peanut butter couldn't be half bad, especially when the combination is used to cover a base of salted crackers. I clipped the recipe and finally, in what the Silver Fox calls a Paula Deen moment, got back to it this week. I had no expectations for the recipe, so I was delightfully surprised when my creation turned out well enough to share with you. These are kid cookies that will never make it to a tea tray, but they are perfect for a cookie jar and you'll find that small hands can finish a batch with great dispatch. So, if you tend to the young or young at heart, I hope you'll give this recipe a try. Here is how this confection is made.
This week's Weekly Menu is ready for browsing. The Seasonal Menu will be changed this morning. I hope you'll take a peek at both of them.
Crunchy Chocolate Peanut Stix...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite courtesy of Family Circle magazine
75 rectangular buttery crackers (i.e. Keebler Club)
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1-1/4 cups light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 cups finely crushed honey graham crackers
1-1/4 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter chips
1) Line 13x9x2-inch baking pan with foil, leaving extra on ends for handles. Line bottom of pan with 25-27 butter crackers and set aside.
2) In medium saucepan, melt butter and add in milk, brown sugar and white sugar. Bring to a simmer. Gradually stir in 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs. Simmer, stirring frequently for 5 minutes.
3) Pour 1 cup of butter/crumb mixture over cracker layer in pan. Top with another layer of crackers and spread remaining butter/crumb mixture over it. Cover with another layer of crackers.
4) In microwavable bowl, combine milk chocolate and peanut butter chips. Cook on high for 1 minute and stir. Continue to cook in 30 second intervals until chips can be stirred smooth. Pour over top of final cracker layer and spread evenly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Carefully lift out of pan and place on cutting board, removing foil. Cut into 1 x 4 inch bars with a serrated knife. Yield:6 dozen bars.

Power measurement products monitor loads, detect pump failures
Wago introduced a new power measurement family including the 750 Series, 3-Phase Power Measurement Modules, the 855 Series, and the 857/798 Series.
Wago's new power measurement modules can be integrated into a Wago-I/O-System node with other standard digital and analog input and output signals. This system can be networked to an existing control platform. If an integrated solution is not required, Wago signal conditioners can convert standard 1 A or 5 A current transformer or Rogowski coil signals into a standard PLC analog signal type.
Applicable across multiple sectors
Of the 26.7% of U.S. electrical consumption that comes from the industrial sector, 64% is attributed to motor-driven equipment. Power-measurement products can be used to measure and collect motor current data to detect instant or cumulative loading to protect an installation from potential failure or extraordinary energy usage.
Applications of the new power-measurement product line include:
General load monitoring and phase balance.
Detecting over-tonnage conditions in automotive stamping operations.
Detecting pump failures or cavitating pumps in lube or hydraulic pump systems.
Overload of conveyor motors or broken belts in material handing applications.
Preventing damage to gear boxes and drive shafts on index tables.

INNAMREDIYARPATTI, India — Michael headed for work at a textile mill, leaving his wife, children and infirm mother at home in this impoverished part of southern India. When he returned a few hours later, his mother's body was propped up in a chair surrounded by villagers and decorated with flowers, poisoned by his wife with a potion in a local form of mercy killing known as thalaikoothal.
Three decades later, he harbors no ill will toward his wife. "My mother had been sick and in pain for 20 days and wasn't eating properly," said Michael, 62, who like many southern Indians uses one name. "I was thinking of doing it myself. It was time, and there wasn't enough food to go around."
Even as India debates the morality and legality of euthanasia, three districts in the southern state of Tamil Nadu have been quietly carrying out a homegrown version for decades, or centuries, depending on whom you ask.
The practice in one small corner of India has declined under the spotlight after a high-profile 2010 case and growing opposition from elderly rights groups, but dozens, even hundreds, of cases of thalaikoothal, or "head pouring," occur quietly each year, people say.

Petri.JmemberMember #Joined: 04 Dec 2003Posts: 437Location: Helsinki, Finland Posted: Sun Feb 21, 2010 9:22 pm I could go somewhere.. France or Spain? I could just relax, do nothing and enjoy my vacation.. Naeh, I'll start making an imagebased 3D scanning software! So, to make my life easier when writing the software I thought it would be best to make stereotropic lens for my camera. There are some 3d lenses available, but they are not very good, and they are actually quite expensive. So I'll make my own. Objective: There is two small right angle prisms (90 degrees) in front of cameras lens that split the final image in half. After those small prisms there is a similar prism on both end that bends the light back about 90 degrees, and in result two images is projected on cameras screen that has been taken from 8 centimeters distance from each other. See right half of following picture. Anyway the first picture is just a sketch of what that objective could look like. On the second image left, I calculated distance of a pixel from View1. Note that I left out Y axis to make things more simple. I could spend my time better now couldn't I?

Little update here.. I ordered those prisms and tried out how they work, and it seems like they don't. Well at least not as well as I thought they would. Problems: - How to do the casing? I figured that the best way of doing the casing is with 3D printer. At first I thought that bending it from aluminum would be the best approach, but that would be very tricky to execute because casing has to be so accurately crafted, since it's only like 12 centimeters wide. - Camera's FOV FOV causes problems, and because of it, the second prism has to be very large. Fortunately camera has zoom so that decreases the problem a bit but the test shows not enough. Solution to this could be to add one lens between cameras lens and the first prism, that would decrease FOV. Though the problem with that would be that it costs more money, and with that in mind, It's coming clear that making this objective is becoming less and less of a good choice. Conclusion: So I ended up with the most simple answer. Buy a second camera. I will still have to make some sort of stand for those cameras, a mechanism that allows me to take a picture simultaneously with them and perhaps a way to zoom with both cameras. The upside is that, with second camera, I will double the resolution. Oh, and I thought that since I don't know C++ yet, this would be a good opportunity learn that as well. Learning C++ could give a lot of new opportunities to do lots of cool stuff that I have always wanted to do, like write mental ray shaders for XSI. I've never liked the skin shader in XSI so with C++ I could finally be able to do my own Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First Sijun Forums Forum Index -> Random Musings All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1 Jump to: Select a forum Digital Art----------------Digital Art DiscussionWork in ProgressGallery/Finished Work Miscellaneous----------------Random MusingsArchive : Sep99 - Dec00 You cannot post new topics in this forumYou cannot reply to topics in this forumYou cannot edit your posts in this forumYou cannot delete your posts in this forumYou cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2005 phpBB Group

Vision Impairment and Blindness
Also called: Low vision
If you have low vision, eyeglasses, contact lenses, medicine, or surgery may not help. Activities like reading, shopping, cooking, writing, and watching TV may be hard to do. The leading causes of low vision and blindness in the United States are age-related eye diseases: macular degeneration, cataract and glaucoma. Other eye disorders, eye injuries and birth defects can also cause vision loss.
Whatever the cause, lost vision cannot be restored. It can, however, be managed. A loss of vision means that you may have to reorganize your life and learn new ways of doing things. If you have some vision, visual aids such as special glasses and large print books can make life easier. There are also devices to help those with no vision, like text-reading software and braille books.
The sooner vision loss or eye disease is found and treated, the greater your chances of keeping your remaining vision. You should have regular comprehensive eye exams by an eye care professional.

WORCESTER, Mass. – Visiting MIT snapped an 11 game losing streak to Clark University that spanned almost a decade, with a hard-fought 56-50 win over the host Cougars on Saturday afternoon in New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) women's basketball action.
The win for the Engineers gave them victories in two of their last three games and improved their record to 7-9 overall and 3-7 in league play. The Cougars, meanwhile, dropped their second straight following a four-game win streak and dipped to 6-11 and 5-5 in conference action.
With the score at 17-16 in favor of the visitors following a Brittany Kennedy offensive rebound and putback, MIT scored six straight points to take a 23-16 edge before settling for a 28-26 halftime lead.
Clark stayed within striking distance in the second half, tying the game at 37 after a three-pointer from Emily Reilly. The Engineers responded with another six-point spurt to go up 43-37 with exactly nine minutes left.
Clark couldn't find a rhythm offensively, however, and went the next seven minutes scoring just six points and going 3-for-13 from the field during that span.
MIT's advantage ballooned to its peak at 54-43 after Tamara Pena made a pair of free throws to seal the game with 41 seconds left.
The win for MIT was its first over Clark since February 17, 2001 – nearly 10 years ago.
Lauren Sascha Burton led all scorers with 13 points, 10 rebounds, three blocks, and three assists in 35 minutes. Pena, meanwhile, totaled 12 points – nine of them in the second half, two assists, and two steals. Rachel Hunt tallied 10 points, seven rebounds, three blocks, two assists, and one steal as Anna Merrifield chipped in eight points and five caroms. Coming off the bench, Kristen Whaley registered six points, six boards, two steals, and one block. Stephanie Cooke notched five boards, three assists, and one steal as Margo Batie grabbed six rebounds.
The Cougars were paced by Megan Grondin, who recorded her first career double-double with 11 points and 11 rebounds. No other Cougar reached double figures, but Ivori Aiken provided a spark off the bench, finishing with six points and five rebounds in just ten minutes.
Both teams return to the hardwood at home on Wednesday. Clark will host Wellesley College while MIT takes on the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.

When it comes to honing in on the perfect sound, Athens, Ga. band New Madrid is keeping it local and taking all the right cues: building a following with their live show and sharing bills with the likes of Futurebirds and Dead Confederate, the band has kept the momentum going by teaming up with David Barbe (Drive-By Truckers) as producer for debut full-length Sunswimmer.
"The songs were heavily informed by the live setting, and were written while steadily running around the south playing shows in a variety of spaces," said guitarist and vocalist Phil McGill.
Knowing that they wanted to press the album to vinyl, the band worked within a very specific time limit.
"It was nice to work within the 45 minute framework," explained McGill. "We weren't necessarily set on doing a single LP until we really got into the first week of recording and got a feel for the new songs in the studio."
Sunswimmer is set for release on Feb. 25 via Normaltown Records. Listen to the album in its entirety in the player above.

|Ah michael bay...I don't mind so much that you raped my childhood (I liked transformer toys but never really got into the cartoon that much)...nor do I mind that you foisted megan fox into the spot light (she has big breasts, it was bound to happen)...nor am I particularly upset about the upcoming freddy remake (I'll say it now and take my licks...after freddy 1, he annoyed the living shit out of me)...but what really pisses me off is that every single one of your mind fuckingly tedious shit heaps of movies makes more money than all the rest combined, and that you constantly prove that old adage "nobody ever went poor underestimating the taste of the public"...because of you and your ilk, and society in general there are so many decent films and scripts that will never get greenlit because how can they compete...its all spectacle, there is nothing beneath the skin...so now I have to put up with my nephew (who I dearly love) forcing fucking transformers down my throat all the goddamned time...fuck you, michael bay, fuck you

I saw it with some immature buddies and enjoyed it then, because I wasn't a hardcore fan of Transformers, ever. I liked the idea of Transformers better than the show itself, and my brother has an Optimus Prime without flames on it in his room (it's the Anniversary version of the TV show Optimus). I agree, American Piesque humor has no place in a movie about Optimus Prime, but at least they didn't make it completely serious and just plain awful instead of a one-watch summer blockbuster.
But there's bad news for other franchises of yore: Michael Bay is said to be remaking the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. That would just be a crime!
|Jan 27th, 2008 06:38 PM
|It has some other another thing going for it: It's not a 30-minute toy commercial.
|Jan 27th, 2008 04:39 PM
|I really wish a lot of you people would take your Nostalgia Goggles off. Seriously. And Neen: I actually think that show has potential. Starscream blew up Megatron in the very first episode. It already has Grimlock and the DinoBots, and Grimlock has a flaming sword. And Soundwave? He has a guitar. Which transforms into Laserbeak.

To Protoclown:
Don't worry, you're not alone in hating this movie. Wes at Scary-Crayon wrote a very scathing review, himself. I think you'd enjoy it. You can also check out the accompanying Blog-entry for more thoughts on the movie.
|Jan 16th, 2008 12:45 PM
I went to see transformers with my girlfriend and her two younger brothers, i was very apprehensive but I hoped for a nostalgia trip,
What a shower of shit,
I was so angered by the film I couldnt resist giving the two-finger salute to Michael Bay's name at the end of the film, something I shouldn't have done in front of two children.
I suppose in that way it did revert me back to being a kid again.
|Jan 16th, 2008 11:21 AM
Thank you Protoclown, thank you for finally putting into words what I've been feeling about this movie.
I went with my brother to see this movie, and he loved it while I sat through it cringing and groaning at all of the crap that we as an audience were expected to just "take." Does anyone really believe that if a car just "shows" up at a car dealership that the dealership owner will just sell it outright? No questions? You don't want to see the title, registration, anything? Really? After seeing this I will never park in a dealership to browse cars again. My car'll be sold out from under me and I'll have to buy another car with shattered windows...
|Jan 16th, 2008 08:13 AM
Actually I always found Sabretooth to be one of my all time favorite villians. Namely because when you hang around with bikers and shit in real life he comes off as all to believable. No long winded speaches, just kicking ass and taking names. I was a long time reader of the X-Men. Even the shitty writings of Chris Clairmont couldn't scare me off.
As for X-Men being balance? How? I need to know HOW. Apart from Wolverine and Professor X the remainder of the X-Men were reduced to bit parts. Now the sequal did it a bit better despite the fact that I was drunk one night and caught an episode of Mad About You that was more X-Men then the first X-Men movie.
X-Men and Transformers actually have a lot in common except for the fact that X-Men sucked. Apart from that, Transformers had.. well.. A-10 Tank Killers. Those plains are so fucking cool and that avenger cannon is just really cool to watch! And it had Abrams tanks and Predator Drones and.. OK enough drooling over military hardware. At least Transformers was written with some level of understanding of the source material at hand. X-Men couldn't even be bothered. WHERE THE FUCK WAS WOLVERINE'S MASK?! Ahem.. sorry.. anyway Transformers was better because at least it was believable and Shia LaBouf was genuinely funny and entertaining which is more than I can say for any of the cast in X-Men barring Professor X and Magneto.
What I think most people forget is that it's a summer, popcorn, action movie and yet so many of the hardcore fans went in expecting Waiting For Godot. Like somehow, in those fractured, virgin minds, Transformers was the modern equivalent of Shakespear. It wasn't. It never was. The concept was borderline stupid but it worked out cool because we all liked the cartoon and toys but it was hardly gospel. Essentially the movie delivers exactly what the cartoon did only with more whiz-bang. Unfortunately those who are even bigger nerds than me will never comprehend that because to them, every stupid, redneck cliche Ironhide uttered in the original series is like divinity made cheap japenese animation.
|Jan 16th, 2008 01:20 AM
Peter Cullen voicing Optimus Prime = much excellence.
Everything that wasn't the above = much eye-stabbage.
|Jan 15th, 2008 11:34 PM
|they called wave "frenzy" because the concept of spundwave wasn't working out, so they changed the name. they're planning on using Soundwave in the 2009 sequel. and aparently Devistaor as well
|Jan 15th, 2008 07:14 PM
D-Mon: I never said anything about the characterization in X-Men; I said that X-Men was a good example of how to balance a large ensemble cast. X-Men has its flaws, but I actually find it enjoyable despite them, and I'd take it over this garbage any day. And as a long time reader of X-Men books, I can assure you that Sabretooth doesn't amount to much more than a growling ape in the comics.
And Megan Fox is alright, I guess, but she looks kind of average to me. Certainly nothing to write home about, and in no way capable of coming anywhere close to redeeming that shitbucket of a movie.
Autrach Sejanoz: I had wondered if perhaps I wasn't being too generous by giving it one whole pickle, but then I considered the fact that I have seen worse. So it doesn't quite belong on the bottom of the barrel. Close though. Damn close.
I've enjoyed reading everyone else's thoughts on the movie as well! Based on the kind of response I've seen and heard on the internet, I figured I was in the minority on hating this one. Glad to see that's not the case.
|Jan 15th, 2008 06:38 PM
|My biggest gripe about this movie is that it's impossible to make out what's going on. It's like watching NASCAR!
|Jan 15th, 2008 04:19 PM
|A bad review from a trusted source, read the synopsis on TheMovieSpoiler.com. I guess I can take it off my Netflix queue now.
|Jan 15th, 2008 01:42 PM
|Mediocre at best. Didn't make me gag too much but easily forgettable.
|Jan 15th, 2008 01:15 PM
The best part: THEY'RE MAKING A BUTT-UGLY CARTOON BASED ON THIS MOVIE ON CARTOON NETWORK!
A shitty show, based on a movie, based on a show, based on a toy line, and in the style of Teen "Fucking" Titans
Ah, ha ha ha!
|Jan 15th, 2008 01:12 PM
|The movie wasn't bad because it was a big advert or a storyless constipated-looking-giant-robot orgy, it was horrible because THEY TORE JAZZ IN HALF! I cried. Alot.
|Jan 15th, 2008 11:53 AM
|Yeah they did suck but they were entertaining. I think that's why I liked the movie. It had lazers and robots that looked somewhat realistic. I think it was just that old school fans couldn't accept the fact that the cheracter designs really fucking sucked. I can prove it.
|Jan 15th, 2008 05:24 AM
the transformers suck, you guys
they always have
|Jan 15th, 2008 03:44 AM
I'd give it a solid 1.5 Pickles, since it's not done by Uwe Fucking Boll.
The movie focuses entirely too much on the wholly unlikable protagonist and his useless accessory female counterpart. Had they merely focused on the giant fucking robots - hell, keep the damn marines as well - the movie wouldn't have suffered so much fail.
But noooo, we have fecking silly robot hijinks, Bumblebee urinating on someone, and miscellaneous stupid crap in such gargantuan numbers that it boggles the mind. Hell, there are extras in this movie with more screen time than Jazz.
Micheal Bay needs to be shot. In the face. With a crowbar.
|Jan 15th, 2008 12:53 AM
|Autrach Sejanoz
Protoclown, I honestly thought you were going to give this a 0.5, consider your hatred for Michael Bay.
Compared to the cartoons, this well and truly sucked. Any movie that has Linkin Park in it's soundtrack immediately sucks in my book.
And to all those who are defending it because of Megan Fox (Who fully deserves her last name), just download naked pictures of her off the net like everybody else.
|Jan 15th, 2008 12:44 AM
Fuck the robots, I watched this movie for the palpable sex dripping from Megan Fox...
Oh who am I kidding, I teared up when Prime transformed for the first time. Then threw up during the "hiding in the backyard" scene.
|Jan 14th, 2008 08:57 PM
|The one thing i couldnt stand beyond the savage product placement (i.e. XBox-bot, the Mountaindewinator, and the Nokia Death-bot) was the pathetic, rushed attempt to have a love story meshed with a robotic battle for the sake of humanity.... "omg im so hot" "omg your so hot" "omg i used to watch my dad steal cars" "omg i hate you and everything stand for despite the fact that ive been swooning over your fucking vagina for the whole movie" "omg just because i used to steal cars doesnt mean im not still hot" "omg your right, hold my hand while giant robots and blowing up everything in sight" "i love you" "ROBOTS!!!"
|Jan 14th, 2008 08:44 PM
|I gotta say as much as I love the originals I also like this movie. I think it works as a movie. As far as the non boxy look, look at cars. The cars in the 80's were boxy cars now are more streamlined. The "my bad" line, they learned english through the radio and internet, the originals used slang from the time and so do these.
|Jan 14th, 2008 08:20 PM
|Honest to God I was a big fan of this franchise. Then I saw the movie. Now every time I even hear about this movie or the franchise I have to punch a baby. After reading this article alone 5 infants got suckered.

The first half of the championship game was tightly played as there were four ties and 11 lead changes. Maine Maritime (2-0) held the largest lead of the opening half (20-15) at the 9:03 mark. MIT (1-1) went on to sink six consecutive free-throws in a span of two minutes to take the lead. A three-pointer from Julia Knights swung the advantage back to the Mariners before Karen Kinnaman countered with a trey of her own. Clara Yuan extended the Engineers' margin to three on a lay-up with five minutes left. A lay-up by Knights cut the lead to one but Yuan answered with a three-pointer giving Tech its largest lead of the game (29-25). Burns knocked down a three and then sank a jumper with 11 seconds on the clock to give Maine Maritime a 30-29 edge at halftime.
The Mariners carried the momentum into the second stanza as they went on a 15-1 run during the opening three minutes. MIT was able to cut the deficit to nine (54-45) with nine minutes remaining, but Maine Maritime continued to capitalize on missed opportunities by the Engineers.
Yuan led MIT with 16 points while Kinnaman registered 14 points and 10 rebounds. Sharon Prange was the third member of the starting five to reach double-figures as she totaled 12 points.
Burns led all scorers with 30 points by shooting 10-of-15 from the floor and 9-of-11 from the free-throw line. She also collected a team-high 10 boards for Maine Maritime. Knights totaled 23 points as Michelle Gott contributed 11 points and seven caroms.
In the consolation game, like the championship match-up, the first-half was a back-and-forth affair as there were four ties and seven lead changes. St. Joseph's held a three-point advantage (10-7), which was its largest of the game, at 15:20. A lay-up by Gordon's Amy Dodd followed by a pair of free-throws from Beth Pinkham put the Fighting Scots ahead. A lay-up from the Monk's Kaylin Regula was countered by a pair of free-throws from Kristen Helgesen, which gave Gordon the lead for good with 11:39 left in the half. A jumper by Sarah Weeks at the buzzer gave the Fighting Scots a 45-30 advantage at the intermission.
Despite facing a 16-point deficit (58-42) with 8:19 remaining the in game, St. Joseph's battled back during the next five minutes and cut the lead to 63-58 on a lay-up from Regula. Pinkham ended the Monks' run with a jumper at the 2:37 mark.
Helgesen recorded a game-high 24 points for Gordon (1-1) on 8-of-13 shooting from the floor and 8-of-9 from the charity stripe. She also grabbed a team-high seven rebounds. Weeks tallied 14 points while Dodd totaled 13 points and nine assists. Pinkham and Mariwyn Light rounded out the scoring with 10 and eight points, respectively.
For St. Joseph's (0-2), Brittany Rauscher notched 17 points while Marie Lint recorded 14 on 7-of-10 shooting from the floor. Regula finished with 13 points and a game-high eight boards.

|Powered by QM on a Linux server
KnowledgeBase 00023: Using Multi-Threaded Sockets
QM has support for socket based connections to other systems or other processes on the same system. This can be an incoming (server) connection or an outgoing (client) connection. The application at the remote end of the connection does not need to be QM but might be, for example, a web server.
Socket connections may be persistent TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) sessions with the two systems interchanging a series of messages until the socket is closed or they may use UDP (User Datagram Protocol) to send a single message and receive a response. This article references only TCP usage.
In most cases, an application opens a single connection, exchanges messages with the remote end, and then closes the connection. Sometimes it is useful to be able to open multiple sessions simultaneously, monitoring for incoming data on any of them. This article describes how to perform this multi-threading in a QM application.
Simple Socket Usage
A simple server process that waits for an incoming TCP connection on port 4000, processes a series of messages, and then terminates the connection can be constructed as below.
srvr.skt = create.server.socket('', 4000) if status() then stop 'Cannot initialise server socket' loop skt = accept.socket.connection(srvr.skt, 0) if status() then stop 'Error accepting connection' done = @false loop msg = read.socket(skt, 100, SKT$BLOCKING, 0) ...processing, setting done flag to terminate session... until done repeat close.skt skt repeat
In this simple example, the inner loop handles a series of incoming messages and in a complete application would normally use WRITE.SOCKET to send a response to each message. When the done flag is set to true, the inner loop exits, the socket is closed, and the program goes back to waiting for an incoming connection.
Multi-Threaded Sockets
It might be necessary for the application outlined above to handle multiple simultaneous incoming connections rather than processing them serially.
To achieve this, the application must create a dimensioned array of socket variables that are to be monitored, including the server socket on which new connections will appear. Elements of this array that are not socket variables will be ignored, simplifying the processing needed when new sockets are to be added to the list or sockets already in the list are closed.
The application uses the SET.SOCKET.MODE() function to mark the socket for event monitoring and then uses SELECT.SOCKET() to wait for an event on any of the monitored sockets.
equate MAX.SOCKETS to 10 dim skt(MAX.SOCKETS) * Open server socket to monitor for new connections, setting read monitor skt(1) = create.server.socket('', 4000) if status() then stop 'Cannot initialise server socket' if not(set.socket.mode(skt(1), SKT$INFO.EVENTS, SKT$READ.EVENT)) then stop 'Error from set.socket.mode()' end loop events = select.socket(skt, 5000) for i = 1 to MAX.SOCKETS if events<i> then ;* Must be a read event if i = 1 then ;* New connection * Find an unused table entry for j = 2 to MAX.SOCKETS if not(socket.info(skt(j), SKT$INFO.OPEN)) then skt(j) = accept.socket.connection(skt(1), 0) if not(set.socket.mode(skt(j), SKT$INFO.EVENTS, SKT$READ.EVENT)) then stop 'Error from set.socket.mode()' end exit end next j end else str = read.socket(skt(i), 1000, 0, 0) if status() then ;* Socket closed skt(i) = 0 end else ...process input... end end end next i repeat
In the above example, element 1 of the skt array is used for the server socket. A read event will be recorded for this socket whenever a new connection becomes available.
In the main processing loop, each time the SELECT.SOCKET() function returns, the program scans the dynamic array of events looking for events to process. Because this example uses only read events, there is no need to examine the actual content of this dynamic array to determine the event type.
If the event occurred on element 1 of the socket array, it is a new incoming connection. The program scans the socket array for a spare entry, saves the socket variable, and sets the read event monitor on this socket. A realistic use of multi-threaded sockets would probably send a message to the remote end on establishing the connection.
If the event occurred on an element of the socket array other than the server socket, the program reads data and processes it, probably sending a response. In this example, the session is terminated by the remote end closing the socket at which point the program sets the corresponding socket array variable to 0, effectively closing the local end of the socket and marking the array element as free.
Note that this example uses a 5 second timeout on the SELECT.SOCKET() function. This would allow program statements to be inserted into the main processing loop to handle shutdown of the server or any other operations that need to take place whilst waiting for events.

Hello guys,
I am very proud to introduce to you the first race kite from EpicKites.
This is the "RACER" kite from EpicKites. This is our first prototype and will start from this idea and work on making an incredible race kite thanks to all of your help and ideas about having a race kite. You never know maybe this prototype will blow us away and might need just minor adjustments. Will start with a 17 meter and go from there.
Our plan is to come up with 3 sizes: 17 / 14 / 11 meters.
The 17 & 14 meter kites will come with a different bar than the XTEND bar that we have now and will be 65cm long. The 11 meter kite will come with a 55cm bar and still different settings then the XTEND bar that we have for all our other EpicKites models.
Once we have all the "RACER" kites ready, will have to register it to the (IKA) federation so we are set for the World competitions.
P.S. Once again thank you for all your help and for all your ideas and inputs which helped us come up with such a nice race kite. Now let's put it to the test and see what needs to be improved since this is only a prototype.

As one expects from Jesus' rural parables, this one is true to life. The viticulture is accurate enough (although most of these details stem from Isaiah allusions): fences (often a wall of loosely fitted stones) protected vineyards from animals (Ps 80:12-14; N. Lewis 1983:125), and watchmen used the tower (2 Chron 26:10; Is 1:8), often "a hut of leaf-covered wood or possibly of stone which served both as a look-out . . . and as a shelter for the vinedressers at harvest time" (Anderson 1976:272).
The religious leaders were wicked. Because the vineyard probably refers to Israel (Is 5:2; compare 3:14; Ezek 17:6; Hos 9:10; Jeremias 1972:70, 76-77), the farmers stand for the nation's religious leaders (Mt 21:45). Thus while Jesus borrows the imagery of Isaiah, he adapts it so that the primary evildoers represent not Israel but its leaders. Neither Jesus nor Matthew contends for God's rejection of Israel as a people, but for his rejection of the religious leaders (23:13-36; compare Kee 1977:113; pace Ladd 1974b:114). Israel was unprepared for its Master because Israel's leaders failed in their stewardship to acknowledge the true Lord; when the cat is gone, the mice will play, but a day of reckoning is coming (compare Prov 7:19, 22-27). This threat from Jesus' day also provides a warning for Christian leaders in Matthew's day and our own (24:45-51). The church and many of its leaders have repeated Israel's disobedience enough in history and to a great extent continue to do so today. Many ministers regard the church as "our" field of ministry rather than keeping in mind who our Lord is.
Although small holders may have predominated in Palestine, Galilee had many tenant farmers. Tenant farmers worked the land for its owners, often absentee landlords, and paid them as much as half the resulting produce. While peasants did not enjoy their economic situation, they would not have identified with the foolish tenants in this story; everyone regarded as treacherous the killing of unarmed messengers. The rejected messengers symbolize the biblical prophets (23:29-38; compare 5:12); Jewish tradition not only acknowledged but amplified their sufferings.
God is incomprehensibly kind to his enemies. The landowner here is too nice; whether aristocrats, artisans or peasants, no one would recognize in this figure the benevolence of any patron they knew. But even had hearers not recognized the image of God and his prophets here, no one would expect the benevolent landowner to remain benevolent indefinitely; indeed, the worse landlords sometimes even had their own hit squads to take out troublesome tenant farmers. Everyone also knew that the state would always side with the landlord (even if he was a bad one); in a case of obvious wrong like this one, the murderers of his servants would be excuted or enslaved.
The landowner has no reason to continue his benevolence. At the very least, he must know that the tenants hate him; in antiquity the way people treated a messenger was the way they would treat the sender (compare 10:40-42; t. Ta`anit 3:2). By continuing to appeal to their sense of honor, the landowner has made himself appear a fool; to maintain any vestige of honor, he must retaliate against their repeating shaming of him (B. Scott 1989:250).
Quite in contrast to expectations, however, the landowner acts with such benevolence that ancient hearers could have regarded his action merely as utter folly: he believes that the murderous tenants will at least respect his son as his own representative. Jesus tells us about the death of the landowner's son, the tenants' ultimate act of treachery. Casting him outside the vineyard (compare Heb 13:13), they kill him.
Even God's patience eventually comes to an end. As benevolent as the landowner is, no one will be surprised that he finally retaliates. No law would have actually granted the vineyard to tenants who had murdered the owner's son. As if asking for a legal ruling, Jesus questions the religious leaders what this patient landowner will finally do to the murderers. The answer is obvious. The evil tenant farmers, no match for the landlord's power, were utter fools to doubt that they would die.
It may be no coincidence (compare 21:13; 24:2) that Jesus' contemporaries understood Isaiah's parable of the vineyard (Is 5:1-7) on which this parable draws as referring to the temple's destruction. Jesus concludes by again challenging their knowledge of the Scriptures (which should have made the object of his parable obvious to begin with), as in 12:3, 19:4, 21:16 and 22:31.
Here Jesus cites Psalm 118:22 from the Hallel (Ps 113-18, recited during Passover season), only a few verses away from the praise recently uttered by the children (Ps 118:25-26 in Mt 21:15; compare 21:9). All his hearers would recognize the source of the quotation, and probably its context. (By contrast, many of us today sing "This is the day the Lord has made" [Ps 118:24] out of the context of the day and event the psalmist was celebrating.) In context, the cornerstone or capstone to which Jesus refers is probably part of the architecture of the temple. Hearers might have recognized that he was comparing the covenant community to a temple; some others in his day made that comparison (for example, 1QS 8.5, 8-9; 9.6; CD 2.10, 13; Grtner 1965:16-46). Most clearly they would recognize that he was challenging the builders, here the temple authorities.
Jesus adds a clarifying comment that expands the reproof to all Israel with no vestige of subtlety (v. 43). Thus, he says, these leaders will no longer administer God's reign among his people as God's stewards (compare 23:13; 16:19). Henceforth the holy nation of the new exodus (Ex 19:5-6) will bring forth their fruit-the landowner's rightful portion of the vintage-for God (3:10; Hos 14:4-8; Lk 13:6-9; Jn 15:1-8).
Using the Jewish interpretation method called gezerah sawah, which links verses on the basis of key terms they share, this passage develops the cornerstone idea (compare 1 Pet 2:6-8). Crushed probably reflects Daniel 2:44; falls on this stone, the stumbling stone of Isaiah 8:15 and 28:16. Neither alternative is intended to be pleasant; the Greek term for but here is the weaker one, in this case probably meaning virtually "and."
Finally understanding that he is addressing them, the religious leaders look for a way to seize him (compare Mt 26:5, 50). Because the Jewish crowds believe that Jesus was a prophet, however (21:11), the leaders must bide their time; they are cowardly politicians (21:45-46).

Why geocaches are discouraged under bridges

I live in Idaho ( born and raised in Iowa ) and was camping and deer/elk hunting a few miles from here the day this took place. ( I was actually within sight of that bridge the day before and did think to myself-- wow wouldn't that be a neat place..... )
I do not know the cacher that placed that cache, but it was an absolute mess. The main north/south highway in the state blocked for HOURS! Traffic was backed up for miles and there was talk for a while about the cacher facing criminal charges as well as civil claims! The cacher was fortunate that the fines were relatively light.

Can Congress Work Like A Tech Startup?
from the as-long-as-they-don't-drop-vowels dept
"I try to bring a lean startup mentality to my work making government more efficient, open and participatory," he said.While not a traditional industry, it sure seems like Congress could use some significant disruption -- and having people in there treating it like a startup might just be a good way to start.
"This technology-centered approach, however, is disruptive to the government bureaucracy and many in Congress because it demands experimentation, data-driven analysis and actually listening to our users -- the American people -- about how to make government work better for them. That's why social media and innovation are so central to my work: we in Congress do not have all the answers, but we can have a relentless drive to adapt technology to let taxpayers re-engage with government on their own terms. I firmly believe that just as new technologies are revolutionizing nearly every aspect of life in America, nascent tools like Madison show the transformative impact technology will have on government, and ultimately overcome the inertia of the bureaucracy."

Border couple engaged at Falls Creek snow resort after unexpected proposal
CHANTELLE James had joked it would be a cold day in hell when her beau would propose, instead it was a wintry day at Falls Creek.
Nick Evans stunned his girlfriend of 5½ years by popping the question on Cloud Nine on Saturday afternoon.
"I was not expecting it, that's for sure," Ms James said.
"There was a running joke that it will happen when hell freezes over."
The Wodonga couple were joined by Falls Creek photographer Chris Hocking, who Mr Evans invited under the pretence of having portraits done.
Mr Evans, who described it as "one of those about-time moments", said the couple regularly went snowboarding at the resort and Cloud Nine was a favourite spot of his fiancee.
Ms James was unsure when the wedding would be, but expected it be in summer.
Mr Hocking said he had averaged photographing one to two proposals each snow season over his 16 years at Falls Creek.

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) – After two rounds of stellar golf, Bubba Watson stumbled on moving day at the Masters.
Watson had four bogeys on the front side Saturday – twice as many as he had in the first two rounds combined – and made the turn with a 2-over 38 that left tied for the lead with Thomas Bjorn and Jonas Blixt.
The 2012 Masters champion posted two rounds in the 60s to start the tournament, giving him a three-stroke lead and the largest 36-hole edge since Chad Campbell in 2006.
Bjorn and Blixt both shot 34 on the front side to wipe out Watson's lead. Matt Kuchar, Jim Furyk and 20-year-old Jordan Spieth were one stroke back in what was setting up as a wide-open Sunday with Tiger Woods on the sideline for the first time in his career, recovering from back surgery.
Watson bogeyed the first hole, then struck a brilliant approach shot that rolled up about 5 feet from the flag to set up an eagle 3 at the second. That would be his only highlight on the front side; he bogeyed both par-3s as well as the seventh to surrender what had seemed like a fairly comfortable lead not more than an hour earlier.
With Watson moving the wrong way, plenty of others were suddenly in contention for the green jacket on a picturesque day.
Miguel Angel Jimenez shot a 6-under 66, matching the best round ever for a senior golfer at Augusta National.
The Spaniard known as "The Mechanic" finished up with a par at the 18th about the time Watson was teeing off at the adjacent first hole, having sliced a 10-shot deficit to just four by taking advantage of warm, sunny conditions with barely a hint of the swirling breezes that can make Augusta so treacherous.
"I played very solid all day long," Jimenez said. "A beautiful day here."
Jimenez turned 50 in January and will make his debut on the Champions Tour at an event in suburban Atlanta next weekend.
In the meantime, he claimed a spot in the Masters record book, matching the lowest score ever by a player 50 and older. Ben Hogan was 54 when he shot 66 during the third round of the 1967 tournament, and Fred Couples matched it at age 50 during the opening round in 2010.
"Just because you are 50 does not mean you cannot play golf," said Jimenez, one of six 50-and-older golfers to make the Masters cut. "I'm still flexible. I hit the ball longer than ever."
Jimenez has never won a major championship but he's been a perennial contender in the biggest events, capturing a new generation of fans with his unique stretching routine before each round, his long ponytail, and his fondness for wine and cigars.
If he can put together another stellar round on Sunday, he sees no reason why he can't become the oldest major champion in golf history. He was the leader in the clubhouse with a 3-under 213, tied with someone at the opposite end of the age scale, 25-yard-old Ricky Fowler, who shot 67.
"The main thing is probably that I like what I am doing in my life," Jimenez said. "I enjoy competing."
That wasn't the only new entry in the Masters record book.
Gary Woodland matched the lowest score ever on the front nine with a 6-under 30, and actually got his score to 7 under with another birdie at the 10th. But the 29-year-old American couldn't keep it going through Amen Corner, where a bogey at the 11th and a double-bogey on 12 stifled his momentum.
Woodland struggled down the stretch and settled for a 69, which left him at 216.
Defending champion Adam Scott couldn't get anything going, his chances of becoming only the fourth back-to-back winner in Masters history fading away with an ugly 40 on the front side. He double-bogeyed the fourth and bogeyed three other holes before the turn.
Early on, the patrons were roaring for Woodland, who became the first player since Phil Mickelson in the final round of the 2009 tournament to shoot 30 on the first nine holes. The only others to do it were K.J. Choi in 2004, Greg Norman in 1988 and Johnny Miller in 1975.
A tepid chip from behind the green at the 11th led to Woodland's first bogey. Still shaken from that flub, he made an even bigger mistake when his tee shot at the 12th rolled back into Rae's Creek.
Two more bogeys turned Woodland into a bit of an afterthought.
But plenty of others were ready to seize the spotlight.
