Enrollment Management in Action
Charting Tarleton's Future
Tarleton has a very simple and pure history when it comes to how students make their way to our gates..."they are always open." Access to quality education has always been Tarleton's driving force in the area of enrollment. As a result, Tarleton has provided unique opportunities to families of first generation graduates for over 109 years. Like those historical gates, Tarleton must remain open to new ideas and opportunities in an effort to continue providing a unique experience to our students.
A very natural part of Tarleton is the family atmosphere that is apparent at first glance. Where the challenge comes is first building that relationship with a rapidly increasing prospect pool and then consistently nourishing it during a student's time here at Tarleton. Therefore, our first step in implementing a student-focused strategic enrollment management plan at Tarleton is to move from "enrollment by chance" to "enrollment by design." We must put in place opportunities to create interactions throughout the student lifecycle that help us to build personal relationships with our students with greater customization and respect to individuality.
What is your role in Charting Tarleton's future?
Every faculty member and every staff member must work toward the common goal of recruiting and retaining Tarleton students to ensure Tarleton's viability in the future. The Strategic Enrollment Management Executive Council (SEMEC) was created as the voice of the institution in providing vision and leadership during these uncertain times in higher education. President Dottavio strongly encourages each Tarleton family member to participate in this process of putting vision into action when it comes to recruiting and retaining students.
SEMEC seeks to outline a student-focused strategic enrollment management plan to sustain institutional growth and student success by outlining the following four components to be embraced by all:
- Providing student-focused strategic enrollment management emphasis on "Enrollment by Design" for new freshmen, transfers and graduate students with a strong emphasis on inclusion and engagement.
- Providing a seamless, holistic student experience by dissolving division and departmental boundaries related to organizational structure
- Providing an integrated information system with relevant and timely communication to better serve our students
- Providing a learning environment that focuses on student success inside and outside of the classroom
We strongly encourage the campus community to reach out to any of the members of the SEMEC committee. Whether it is to share an observation, or a suggestion, or a recommendation, we want to hear your ideas!

This past fall Discovery Channel adventured across the world to the most sacred skiing destinations. In ranking the worlds top heli destinations they placed Mica at number four View Aritcle>>
In this December issue of Robb Report Kelly McMillian experiences skiing most exclusive adventure. The private 4 day trip to British Columbia at Mica Lodge putting in over 25,000 vertical feet a day and getting to name her own run. Check out story here...
Men's Journal recently ran a gorgeous spread in their notebook section on Mica Heliskiing. Pick up the February 2011 edition and check it out.
Henrik Windstedt, Mark Abma, Mike Douglas and Asmund Thorsen spend a week shredding pillows and trees in some of the deepest snow of the season at Mica Heliskiing in BC
Mica Heli Guides stands alone in the world of powder for two simple but obvious reasons: its terrain (which is massive and private) and its helicopters (which are small and also private). Ski Canada editor Iain and I made a weekend visit to the only heli-operation in the Canadian Rockies last April to check out the sometimes chest-deep (not so difficult when you're Iain's size, but even I disappeared occasionally) snow that draws skiers from around the world.
Now, I'm not one to buy a pig in a poke, but every once in a while you get an offer you can't refuse. How about an all-inclusive heliboarding trip to a little-known place called Mica Heliskiing on the western shore of the Rocky Mountains? Throw in a crew that includes snowboarding legend Jamie Lynn (filming for Oakley's upcoming The Community Project) and you've got yourself a deal. A no-brainer, for sure.
Men's Journal Magazine rates Mica Heli Guides as one of its top choices for Powder in 2010

Investors take notice, underlying the positive sentiment and positive trading are four negative data points in the post-split trading so far of Apple stock.
Apple AAPL, -0.62% is trading post-split for the first time in nine years. Even though a split is meaningless from the viewpoint of the financial data of a company, it generally leads to positive sentiment. Apple is no different. A MarketWatch poll shows that 50% of the readers are bullish on Apple and only 19% will not buy Apple here. Our proprietary sentiment data at The Arora Report is in line with the MarketWatch survey.
The chart linked below shows that the price action so far today is mildly positive.
Please click here for annotated chart
Here is the data that is shocking in view of the positive sentiment and a positive price action as shown on the chart.
Block trades
As of this writing, our computers compute the ratio of the dollar value of block trades on up ticks to down ticks to be 0.89
A ratio of 1.00 is neutral, over 1.00 is bullish and below 1.00 is bearish.
Money flow
As of this writing, our computers compute money flow to be minus $46.11 million.
A money flow of zero is neutral, a positive number is bullish and a negative number is bearish.
Tick ratio
As of this writing, the ratio of the dollar value of trades on up ticks to down ticks is 0.95.
A ratio of 1.00 is neutral, over 1.00 is bullish and below 1.00 is bearish.
Smart Money flow
This is a proprietary indicator of The Arora Report that algorithmically attempts to measure actions of the Smart Money in real time.
As of this writing, the Smart Money has been a net seller of $147.43 million of Apple stock today.
What to do now?
All of the foregoing are very short-term indicators and can change on a dime but they are worth closely watching as they can be an early sign of a short-term top..
Those in the stock may consider continuing to hold.
Those not in the stock may consider holding off a new purchase until more data becomes available.

[off-topic] Rakudo - Perl6 - wait is over!
Just compiled the Rakudo and it seems the wait for a Perl6 implementation is finally over!
~/src/rakudo $ time ./perl6 -e 'print "hello\n"'
real 0m3.052s
user 0m0.708s
sys 0m0.753s
I mean, ~3 [*CENSORED*] seconds to print a puny [*CENSORED*] string?
No folks, I'm not waiting for it anymore. I simply go on using the Perl5.
R.I.P. Perl6, we barely knew you.
P.S. I understand alpha/beta status and all. But I doubt that even release would be able to fix the 10-100x performance regression. And yes, I checked Parrot was all compiled with optimizations.
P.P.S. I tested inside of the VirtualBox. That might slow down an application. Yet the Perl5 performance in the very same conditions is totally OK:
~/src/rakudo $ time perl -e 'print "hello\n"'
real 0m0.041s
user 0m0.002s
sys 0m0.013s
~/src/rakudo $
P.P.P.S. On my up-to-date Sidux, strace tells that "perl" needed only 101 syscall to print a string. Rakudo - 1146. Among them 527 brk()s. That's a very RAM conscious application we have here.

CHICAGO — Jordan Lyles' mind had quickly switched from confident and calm to cold frustration.
The Astros were blowing easy outs. Lyles was pitching worse during tight situations set up by infield errors. And a club that entered Sunday eyeing its ninth series win of the season was watching a winnable game quickly wash away.
Then the third inning arrived.
An error by Astros shortstop Marwin Gonzalez gave the Cubs runners at first and second with no outs. A four-pitch walk to Starlin Castro followed. By the time Lyles exited the inning, the Cubs had four hits, one hit-by-pitch, a sacrifice fly and four runs.
By the time the Astros exited Wrigley Field, the struggling Cubs had recorded a 14-6 interleague blowout victory, and first-year manager Bo Porter's club was starting a critical 17-game run before the All-Star break that could determine whether the Astros reach 100 losses for the third consecutive season.
Lyles acknowledged his frustration and said he must learn to throw sharper during tense moments.
Porter praised a promising righthander who was undone by an unreliable defense and never lost his composure.
"Jordan handled it well," Porter said. "There was no body language or negative responses to any of the plays. He continued to make pitches and I told him that when he came out of the game. I said, 'You're done. But I'm proud of you. You did a good job of battling through a tough situation and next time out we'll pick up the ball better.' "
Inconsistent defense
Porter was less sympathetic for a defense that's alternated between smooth and frustrating this season.
Third baseman Matt Dominguez continues to shine, but second baseman Jose Altuve, first baseman Chris Carter and Gonzalez had errors or misplays Sunday. Right fielder Marc Krauss was charged with a throwing error, and Justin Maxwell watched a Ryan Sweeney liner bounce off the top of his glove and turn into an RBI double that made it 8-3 Cubs in the fifth.
"It could be a lack of concentration sometime," Porter said. "When I say concentration, more of the speed of the play and understanding how hard the ball is hit or how slow the ball is hit, the speed of the runners. At the end of the day, you have to catch the baseball."
Altuve was the last player to leave the Astros' (29-48) dugout, staring at an empty field while clubhouse attendants swirled around him. His energy from Saturday was gone, and the 2012 All-Star said he was focused on the Astros' two-game homestand against the St. Louis Cardinals, who hold MLB's best record.
"It's baseball. As a baseball player, I don't think it's easy to make every play," Altuve said. "I don't think it's, like, anything with focus. We're focused on the game. Nothing happened. Sometimes you get hard hits and it's hard to control."
Lyles on the rise
During the last six weeks, Lyles, 22, had displayed better control than anyone wearing an Astros uniform. His confidence has risen as his repertoire has sharpened. A righty who was cut from the roster before spring training finished has become the club's most promising young hurler.
Sunday was baseball reminding Lyles that nothing comes easily and a complex game can rapidly change. Despite the errors and long innings, Lyles showed more professionalism than some of his older teammates have this season in similar situations. But the frustration was there.
"We gave up 14 (runs Sunday)," said Lyles, who allowed 10 hits and eight runs (five earned) in five innings. "That's nothing to be happy about. I'm very, very disappointed in giving up that many runs."
Six more Cubs (31-43) runs came off Astros relievers Wade LeBlanc and Wesley Wright, offsetting Chris Carter's 4-for-5 outing with a career-high three doubles and Jason Castro's 21st and 22nd doubles of the season.
Stressing fundamentals
The Astros fell to Chicago on Friday, stole a win Saturday and were blown out Sunday by one of baseball's worst teams. After the series was complete, the first thing Porter mentioned was playing better baseball.
"We didn't play fundamentally sound baseball," Porter said. "When you don't catch the ball, you increase the other team's chances of scoring runs. And give the Cubs credit. They (were) able to take advantage of our miscues and put up a lot of crooked numbers."

In the field of dentistry, surgery, and medicine, anesthesia is referred to a temporary prompted loss of awareness or sensation. It might include unconsciousness, amnesia, paralysis, or analgesia.

So I keep a small container garden of a few basic cooking herbs--Chives, Cilantro, Italian Parsley, Oregano, Lemon Basil, and Basil:
Anyone else do this? I've met precious few people who seem to care enough about fresh herbs to do so.
I'd also eventually like to start a moss garden--tending to green things is one of my few talents.
Also is anyone else a gardener in general? Even if it's just a container garden on your balcony.
Views: 128
Until recently I always kept an herb garden. I even used to have a big vegetable garden with an herb section in the back yard of my apartment house in RI. Now I live in a townhouse in Jersey, but I could probably fit a few containers on the tiny balcony. I would like some fresh herbs and they don't grow very well in the kitchen window here. I miss havng a yard. *sigh* maybe the next place.
I used ot be a bit obsessed with herbs. I even made my own teas and medicines. I used to have a whole bookshelf filled with various dried herbs.
Since I became vegan 3 years ago a cook a lot more. Fresh herbs would be great. See, now I have to start a container garden!

MARION — Throughout its history, the Council on Aging has served the town's elderly residents. However, laws preventing such organizations from fundraising have forced the council to rely only on its limited budget to fill the town's needs.
MARION — Throughout its history, the Council on Aging has served the town's elderly residents. However, laws preventing such organizations from fundraising have forced the council to rely only on its limited budget to fill the town's needs.
The question: how to bring in some much-needed dollars?
The answer: enter the newly formed group "Friends of Marion Council On Aging," which seeks to help the council by conducting its own fundraising efforts.
Friends Vice President Jerry Garcia said the council has a yearly budget of $90,000, an amount he said makes it difficult to perform all of its services. "It's a pretty limited budget," he said.
These services include transportation to medical appointments, recreational and shopping trips, in-home health outreach, the delivery of meals, day programs, and the publication of a monthly newsletter. The COA also helps residents obtain equipment such as smoke detectors.
Garcia added that Marion's growing elderly population has increased the demand for the council's services; he noted that the number of rides provided totaled more than 5,000, an increase of 2,000 between 2010 and 2011.
"There's a need out there," he said.
He also pointed out that many Marion residents are unaware of much of the work the council has been doing.
For many years, Marion was the only one of the "Tri-towns" (Rochester and Mattapoisett are the other communities) not to have a Friends organization, he said. Noticing that many of these organizations have been able to raise thousands of dollars, a group of Marion residents banded together to form their town's Friends earlier this year. Garcia said some 45 people have joined.
The Friends launched their fundraising efforts in September with a letter sent throughout the town. Garcia said they have already received 40 responses, raising more than $6,500 — and the replies are still coming in.
The Friends' current objective is to help pay for the printing of the COA newsletter, which costs more than $300 each month. He expressed hope that local businesses will step up to help.
In addition to raising funds, the Friends hope to recruit volunteers for both their group and the council. Garcia said the Friends are looking for members to serve on their Communications, Membership, Long Range Planning, and Fundraising and Development Committees.
Volunteers to drive the COA vans are always needed, he said.
Garcia said anyone interested in donating or volunteering can get more information by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com
He added that the Friends have sought advice from similar organizations in other communities to fine tune their efforts. "We're kind of learning as we go along," he said.
Some day, the Friends hope to help the town build a Senior Center, which would provide activities for elderly residents. "It gives them an outlet, a place in which to spend the day out of their home," he said.

Wearing Invisalign Aligners
Similar to other orthodontic treatments, Invisalign aligners may temporarily affect the speech of some people, and you may have a slight lisp for a day or two. However, as your tongue gets used to having aligners in your mouth, any lisp caused by the aligners should disappear.

Huffington Post:
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama announced after a meeting with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus on Friday that he will lay out some of his plans for immigration reform on Tuesday in Las Vegas.
Members of the caucus who were present at the meeting said Obama assured them that he shares the group's basic beliefs about immigration reform, most notably that making a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants -- which some Republicans oppose -- is an absolute must as they push for legislation.
"The President was pleased to hear from CHC members and noted that they share the same vision, including that any legislation must include a path to earned citizenship," the administration said in a statement. "The President further noted that there is no excuse for stalling or delay."
Note: No one from Florida was at the meeting.

Ulcinj (Cyillic: Улцињ, Albanian: Ulqin or Ulqini) is the most southern coastal town of Montenegro.
Ulcinj is the southern most major town along the Montenegrin coast before reaching the border with Albania. Well over a majority of the population of Ulcinj is ethnic Albanian. Together with the town of Tuzi it is one of the two major population centers of Albanians in Montenegro. Due to the town's nice location on the coast it is a major tourist destination of much of the Albanian population of Kosovo.
Get in
Get around
Ulcinj is a small city, you will have no problem getting around by foot.

MCR - Rent a Car Offering Rental Cars and Airport Shuttle Transfers to and from Ulcinj . [2] Tel: +382 (0) 67 515 477
There is an old castle overlooking the sea. Stari grad (old town) is worth a visit.
Ulcinj is a splendid central location for exploring Montenegro's South Coast region (from Bar to Skader Lake to Ada Bojana and parts of Albania. The "Ulcinj" South Coast region boasts some of the most interesting adventure tour, historic tour, eco tour, and vacation beach stays in all of the Adriatic.
There is good swimming in the area. The longest sandy beach in Montenegro is located near by, including a nudist beach for those so inclined.
Near the beach stalls sell kebab and hamburgers.
Accommodation are plentiful in Ulcinj, ranging from resort hotels to private accommodations. The resort hotels in Ulcinj are each in the process of renovation and reconstruction, as most have been recently privatized from former government agencies. Lodging costs range from full-service rooms at 50 EUR per person (or more) down to the many unlicensed/unregulated private accommodations costing in the range of 10-25 EUR.
Get out
There are at least twice-daily departures to Shkodra in Albania, making a stop at the border and at the furgon station of Shkodra, before making it to the city centre. In the furgon station by the Shkodra bridge and castle, furgons for Tirana and Durres will be waiting.

I'm still having problems with pain and neuropathy. My EMG said:
1. "A few small, serrated motor unit action potentials were seen in the right deltiod muscle."
2. There was no F-Wave response in the left peroneal. (However, it says the nerve conduction studies were normal.)
3. The test "failed to show definite evidence of myopathy."
When I had the test, the the doctor said the muscle is inflamed. He didn't go into much detail. I don't see my regular doctor for a few weeks.
What do those terms mean, or possibly indicate? Thank you.

As with all Dahle Rotary Trimmers, safety is ensured by totally enclosing the blade in a plastic housing. For larger pieces (or even for small ones), this trimmer can be wall mounted for even more exact cuts.

Welcome to the new Joystiq (or, as we've lovingly called it for the last year, Futurestiq). This represents our biggest upgrade ever, with a whole host of new features you'll see, and even more that you won't. With all this change going on, it only seemed right to spruce up the branding – you'll notice we've got a whole new look, designed to make things cleaner and easier to read.
That goal of making Joystiq easier to use informed much of the work we did and resulted in dramatic improvements to nearly every aspect of the site. From comments to searching to video to image galleries to navigation, we've torn the experience down, and rebuilt it with how you use the site in mind. The end result is something much more than just a "blog" – it's a more organized, more structured experience that's part news, part magazine, part blog, and part video site. And we're excited for you to check it out!
We're going to walk you through some of the major new features but, before we get started, we want to ask you to take note of the little badge under our new logo in the upper left: "beta." Just like Gmail and Halo Reach before us, we're appropriating the "beta" label to let you know that there may be some inconsistencies over the next several weeks, as we iron things out.
Welcome to the new Joystiq (or, as we've lovingly called it for the last year, Futurestiq). This represents our biggest upgrade ever, with a whole host of new features you'll see, and even more that you won't. With all this change going on, it only seemed right to spruce up the branding – you'll notice we've got a whole new look, designed to make things cleaner and easier to read.
I mentioned a lot of design work you won't see – thanks to the tireless efforts of our crack development team of Justin Glow and Dan Chilton, we've finally realized our years-long goal of pairing a structured database with blog content. Coupled with Dan's design, we've created "game pages" which house not only all the news on any given title, but the screenshots and videos as well. Looking for a specific video? Want to find that one news story? It's as easy as going to that game page.
The spoke system also appeared to devalue much of the work we do reporting on PC games and iPhone games and, well, all games that aren't on a platform made by The Big 3. Our navigation icons up top serve to filter the content directly into the area you're interested in, and that now includes PC (and Macs!) and mobile (like iPhones and Android phones!).
We've also introduced a new sourcing system. Below each post, you'll be able to find our regular Via and Source links, but we've added the ability to include the name of the link. While it might seem minor, we're excited to make this process more transparent and easier to navigate. Even better: More Coverage links will take you to other angles on the story from our peers in the space.
If you've been commenting on Engadget, you'll notice that ID is carried over here. If you've got a Joystiq account, but have never set a username, here's how you get started: When you login with your current account, you'll be asked to set a username (letters and numbers only, folks). If your old cookie is logging you in without the option of selecting a username, you'll want to go to joystiq.com/login and logout. Then log back in with your current credentials, pick a new username, and you're off to the races.
When you read a review on Joystiq, know that we're less concerned with the game itself than the experience of playing the game. The phrase we use internally is "telling the story of the experience," and our review scores endeavor to do the same thing. While most review scores advise you on how to spend your money, we believe that the much more valuable commodity is your time, and our scoring system reflects that.
We use a 5-star rating system. When you look at our review scores, pretend that you've just asked the author if playing the game is an experience you should have. Not "should I buy it" but "should I play it." The number translates to some variation of the following answers.
|- Yes.
|- If you like this type of game at all, you'll want to play it.
|- Maybe, but only if you like this type of game and are able to forgive some problems.
|- No, unless this is your favorite type of game and you're starved for more.
|- No.
As you can see, this scale asks that you bring something of yourself to it. If you see a 2-star review on a game in your favorite genre from your favorite developer, we're not necessarily saying you shouldn't buy it, just that you should proceed with caution. If you see a half-star, assume it's between both positions and read the review for further context.
Now, if you buy a one-star game, well ... don't say we didn't warn you.
We know you've been asking for it and, while it's not quite ready for download today, we're happy to report that you won't need to ask for it anymore. Development of our iPhone app is well underway and we'll be bringing you an early look as soon as we can. In the interim, we'll share the above screen. Pretty incredible, eh?
It goes without saying that a project of this magnitude couldn't have been done without a lot of help from a lot of people. I want to thank our designers, Dan Sormaz and Erik Sagen, who've worked to conceive of, and build, much of what you see. I want to thank our developers Dan Chilton, Paul Heuts, and Brett Terpstra, for lending their coding skills to the substantial task at hand. I need to thank Felicia Perez and Rick Garner for proving much-needed project management support. I need to thank Brad Hill and Marty Moe for supporting this project from the beginning. Of course, without the support and understanding of Greg Mills and John Benyamine at AOL Games, much of this wouldn't be happening. And a major thanks goes out to Mr. Justin Glow for pushing this entire project through, and for figuring out how to actually do everything we imagined. And lastly, Team Joystiq, for always going the extra mile even when – like in this case – that extra mile was a marathon.

FluidSynth is a real-time software synthesizer based on the SoundFont 2 specifications.
Installing FluidSynth
The first step is to install FluidSynth itself. It can be installed via pacman from the extra repository:
# pacman -S fluidsynth
However, fluidsynth will not produce any sound yet. This is because fluidsynth does not include any instrument samples. To produce sound, instrument patches and/or soundfonts need to be installed and fluidsynth configured so it knows where to find them. You can install Soundfont sample.
How to use fluidsynth
There are two ways to use fluidsynth. Either as MIDI player or as daemon adding MIDI support to ALSA.
Standalone mode
You can simply use fluidsynth to play MIDI files:
$ fluidsynth -a alsa -m alsa_seq -l -i /usr/share/soundfonts/fluidr3/FluidR3GM.SF2 example.midi
Assuming than you installed fluidr3.
There are many other options to fluidsynth; see manpage or use -h to get help.
Alsa daemon mode
If you want fluidsynth to run as ALSA daemon, edit /etc/config.d/fluidsynth and modify FSYNTH_SOUNDFONT with de sound sample you want to use, for fluidr3:
After that, you can start fluidsynth with:
# /etc/rc.d/fluidsynth start
If you want to have permanent MIDI support, add fluidsynth to your daemon list in /etc/rc.conf:
DAEMONS=(... fluidsynth ...)
This will give you an output software MIDI port (in addition of hardware MIDI ports on your system, if any):
$ aconnect -o client 128: 'FLUID Synth (5117)' [type=user] 0 'Synth input port (5117:0)'
An example of usage for this is aplaymidi:
aplaymidi -p128:0 example.midi
How to convert MIDI to OGG
Simple command lines to convert midi to ogg:
# fluidsynth -nli -r 48000 -o synth.cpu-cores=2 -F /dev/shm/midi_temp.raw /usr/share/soundfonts/fluidr3/FluidR3GM.SF2 example.MID # oggenc -r -B 16 -C 2 -R 48000 /dev/shm/midi_temp.raw -o example.ogg
Here's a little script to convert multiple midi files to ogg in parallel:
#!/bin/bash maxjobs=$(cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor | wc -l) midi2ogg() { name=`echo $@ | sed -r s/[.][mM][iI][dD][iI]?$//g | sed s/^[.][/]//g` for arg; do fluidsynth -nli -r 48000 -o synth.cpu-cores=$maxjobs -F "/dev/shm/$name.raw" /usr/share/soundfonts/fluidr3/FluidR3GM.SF2 "$@" oggenc -r -B 16 -C 2 -R 48000 "/dev/shm/$name.raw" -o "$name.ogg" rm "/dev/shm/$name.raw" ## Uncomment for replaygain tagging #vorbisgain -f "$name.ogg" done } export -f midi2ogg find . -regex '.*[.][mM][iI][dD][iI]?$' -print0 | xargs -0 -n 1 -P $maxjobs bash -c 'midi2ogg "$@"' --


text: I believe, that like the private message system, the antipoint system should have something on the main page in the user control panel, that says "You have received antipoints since your last visit" or something along those lines, so you dont have to check your ap if its not necessary. This will most definitely help out dialup users, and just add a new feature to the site. do it.

The player that should have won sixth man of the year, but didn't because the Mavericks sucked. He straight up killed it last year.
I toyed with Vince at my Tony Allen spot, but he just needs a lot of shots and that woulda been wasted next to Melo. Carter is a terrific pick though. Only question is whether or not last year was his final productive season. I've written off VC before and he's come back strong. I had him in my top 10 overall SGs though.
Couldn't go wrong with either player there I think. I think Vince is the perfect fit on this Dallas team.


text: 12th Annual Leading Dairy Producer Conference Hosts 212 Farms March 5, 2014 03:50 AM Tweet Purina Animal Nutrition partners with several industry leading companies to host the Leading Dairy Producer Conference each year and bring the most innovative research and information to attendees. TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By News Release Email Purina Animal Nutrition and Land O' Lakes welcomed more than 475 dairy producers, family members and industry representatives to the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells, Wis., earlier this year for the Leading Dairy Producer Conference. Now in its twelfth year, it is one of the largest dairy producer conferences held annually in the Upper Midwest. This year's attendees represented 212 dairy farms and more than 145,000 cows. Guests had the chance to learn about a range of topics from heat stress abatement in dry cows, managing dairies environmental footprint to automated calf feeders. "Each year our goal is to deliver the most innovative dairy nutrition and management insights to the most progressive dairy producers, as well as provide a discussion forum," says Elena Lindemann, lactating livestock marketing director with Purina Animal Nutrition. "Dr. David LaCount, one of our dairy nutritionists based in Wisconsin, leads the selection of topics that are of key relevance for dairy producers." Dr. Bruno Amaral, dairy nutritionist with Purina Animal Nutrition, discussed the importance of heat stress abatement in dry cows. Amaral shared results from three University of Florida research studies showing cows cooled during the dry period produced an average of 14 pounds more milk in the first 30 weeks post-calving than heat stressed cows.[1] Insights on how to improve feed efficiency and lower crude protein levels in rations was shared by Dr. Andy Mueller, manager of dairy nutrition and technical support with Purina Animal Nutrition. Mueller shared strategies towards achieving high levels of production with low crude protein diets, noting that selection of ingredients is critical to achieving this goal. Attendees also had the opportunity to hear first-hand from a producer panel engaged by Purina Animal Nutrition for their unique and hands-on experience with automated calf feeders. Pete Graff, Rambling Acres in Stetsonville, Wis., Linda Diederichs, 3D Dairy in Malone, Wis., and Chad Gullicksrud, Hamlin Valley Farms in Eleva, Wis., discussed management advantages they have found feeding with automated calf feeders, points of consideration while building and installing the feeders and noticeable effects on their calves' development. In addition to the educational seminars, attendees also had a chance to see first-hand the growth differences between two Holstein calves raised on separate feeding programs. Calf one was raised on a conventional feeding program while calf two was raised on a full potential feeding program. The calf raised on a full potential program weighed 59 pounds more and was 2.5 inches taller at 4 months of age. The calf raised on a full potential feeding program had an average daily gain of 1.57 pounds versus 0.71 pounds for the conventional. Calves were provided by Hanke Farms in Sheboygan Falls, Wis. Purina Animal Nutrition partners with several industry leading companies to host the Leading Dairy Producer Conference each year and bring the most innovative research and information to attendees.

WASHINGTON (AP) With her team tied at halftime and struggling to rebound, Brittney Griner got some specific orders.
''Don't worry about your shot,'' Griner said coach Sandy Brondello told her. ''Just go get boards.''
Griner eventually did both, scoring 14 of her 20 points and grabbing six of her seven rebounds after halftime as the Phoenix Mercury pulled away to an 81-66 victory over the Washington Mystics on Tuesday night.
Diana Taurasi added 13 points and 10 assists in her first double-double of the year for Phoenix (6-2), which has won two straight and is 2-1 so far on a five-game road trip.
Candice Dupree scored 18 points and DeWanna Bonner added 14 for the Mercury, who were outrebounded 24-12 in the first half three days after a double-overtime victory at San Antonio.
''These are the games you have to grind out,'' said Taurasi, who came within one of her career-high assist total. ''These are games that when you look back on when you're in the playoffs, you can take something from the game when you're not playing well and you can find a way to turn it around and get going.''
Emma Meesseman scored a career-high 14 points for Washington (4-5), which has lost three straight and its last two at home.
No other player scored in double figures for the Mystics, who are now just 2-4 at Verizon Center but 2-1 on the road.
''Fortunately we've been lucky to get some wins on the road,'' said Monique Currie, who scored nine points. ''But we've got to take care of home and we've got to figure out how to win in front of our fans.''
The Mystics also need to solve their third-quarter woes, after getting outscored there for the seventh straight game. Dupree and Griner each hit two baskets as the Mercury opened the second half on a 10-0 run to take a 47-37 lead.
Washington coach Mike Thibault responded by calling timeout and temporarily substituting all five players on the floor with 5:45 left in the third.
''Message delivered,'' Thibault said of the move. ''We'll see if it's received the right way.''
The Mystics answered with their own 9-2 run to close within 58-53, keyed by Currie's 3-pointer and then 20-foot jumper.
But the Mercury quickly pushed their lead to 12 again, with Dupree's leaner making it 66-54, and then led by at least eight the rest of the way.
Thibault hinted dissatisfaction with officiating after the game, saying ''Phoenix is really good, and apparently they don't foul.''
Taurasi, whose team committed 11 fouls to Washington's 19, had a different take.
''I think we were attacking a little bit more to the hoop,'' she said. ''This league, usually, the aggressor gets the call, that's just the bottom line.''

Idk if you counted this one because it was unaired but lenny and karyn went to try and findthe keys to the arms of St. Peter" in Vatican City... but they didnt obtain it
Nancy & Emily tried to beat the Fast Forward in Leg 9 of TAR1 in Thailand, but they lost to Joe & Bill.Kelly & Jon to get the FF in the second Malaysia leg in TAR4, however they were too late and survived.Rob & Amber went to a Fast Forward location in South Africa in TAR7, but failed to obtain it.Brandon & Nicole attempted to do the Fast Forward in India, TAR5 Leg 9, but they decided not to use it.Fran & Barry went to FF location in Greece, Leg 6 of TAR9. They were too late to do it.Terence & Sarah tried to beat Nick & Starr in the Fast Forward in Kazakhstan, TAR13 Leg 8, and they were lost.
Note: I've already covered Seasons 1 through 14. No need to worry about those.
This is a part of TAR12, which you've done but I'm going to add this anyway: I read somewhere that Shana & Jennifer were going for an FF in Lithuania when they were nearly run over but that was edited out.
One of the sisters was seen with a fast forward in their hand, it was the leg body break were eliminated.It was to do with a police simulation system and apparently was attempted by Jet & Dave, but they were unsuccessful.

Pirlo's Panenka-esque chip turned the tide. The Ashleys' gaffes set the table. But it was Alessandro Diamanti, going left and going low, that sent Italy through to the semis over the broken hearts of the overachieving Three Lions.
England rarely goes down without a fight, however. And one fan, situated in the first row behind the goal, did his best to distract Diamanti by dropping his shorts just before his shot. (Go ahead, click on the photo to enlarge, then play Where's Waldo, except with dong.) This photo was taken just after the dagger, at the moment defeat became final. So then, that's your lasting image of England from Euro 2012: a lone fan, arms crossed in disappointment and resignation, a St. George's Cross fright wig on his head and his sad English penis flapping in the Kiev breeze.

Namely, the endgame answer session of Episode 5. Much of the red said in this session only fits together well if everyone is already dead, and at the moment the endgame answer session starts, the game time is declared to be frozen at 24:00 by Lambda. Ambiguities only disappear if everyone who is still alive dies as the grandfather clock strikes twelve.

For example we know that Battler never killed anyone and he's no accomplice. However "because of him everyone dies".
Therefore it is possible that Beatrice claims to be the cause of Battler's death in EP4 because of some indirect way, like for example in the case she knows the island is going to blow up (apparently the seagulls do) be she refuses to warn everyone for some kind of reason related to Battler's short memory.
Then again the whole idea that the Beatrice Kinzo always cries about is not actually a woman would be an awesome Citizen Kane reference.

I'm still fond of the notion of Beatrice literally being a bomb, if only in a literary sense, as it makes the epitaph pretty funny.
Putting the witch to sleep for all time = permanently disarming the bomb.
Of course, that would mean Kinzo knows about the bomb, feels affectionate toward it, had a painting made of a woman reputed to be a bomb (but also the woman actually existed), and needless to say it gets a bit stupid at this point.

Anyways, I haven't come up with much on my Numerological studies, I have found some numbers that fit into the date of Ushiromiya meeting, but I don't think those are anything important. However, I have become to theorize that the code 07151129 is somehow related to the Epitaph, in which they both lead to a Golden Land. If so, then the numbers presented in the Epitaph have some meaning that correlates to the code or the code is represented in the Epitaph as being the key.
Outside of that, I have noticed a contradiction in the Epitaph. In Numerological standards, there is no 10 since it would be seen as 1+0, so the tenth twilight in the Epitaph doesn't exist. So, if there is no Golden Land, then Battler shouldn't have met Beatrice and all the games outside of the first never existed.
Of course, these are small observations and guesses, nothing big yet.

Romans 7:15 (New International Version): I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.
Romans 11:29 (New International Version): for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
Then again, you can find pretty much anything in the Bible.

Wow, I didn't know that... That's a good guess on my part! Well, as long as my guess is varified, I'm sure my math will lead me to something. This is going to hurt like f*ck on my brain, but I'll be able to do it. Also, thanks for the Biblical find, I think that might help.

Actually, considering that all magic circles use quotes from Psalms, and 07151129 first appears where one would and is displayed as one, it probably should be Psalms:
Psalm 7:15 (New International Version): He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made.
Psalm 112:9 (New International Version): He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor, his righteousness endures forever; his horn [a] will be lifted high in honor.
Footnotes: Psalm 112:9: Horn here symbolizes dignity.
P.S. Actually, there's only a limited number of quotes I'll be able to squeeze out of the Bible by applying 07151129, so I'll go fish and post the lot in a moment.

Hell, Kinzo built a chapel on his island. Either he's as into Western architecture as he is into Western occultics, or he built it for some religous purpose. I wouldn't put it past Kinzo to be a Christian or a Catholic.
"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate to do." Sort of feels like what Battler was going through for the first four Episodes. Though that has nothing to do with the Epitaph.

Psalms 7:7 (KJV) So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
This one sounds likely that it's referenced in the epitaph. The praise my name on high part.

Ok, going from the assumption that 07151129 is an encoded Biblical message, here is what I get. I'm using the New International Version as the reference as it is the most language agnostic, there's no telling which one Ryukishi might have used, though just to be sure I'll do the same for King James for the more promising ones. We have no indication which book of the Bible to use, so I'm going through all of them in order, let's see if we get anything that sounds interesting. I'm assuming that "07" means "7", since numbering in the Bible starts at 0.
Only those where both passages numbered in this manner exist are listed.
Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life in them came to Noah and entered the ark.
Abram and Nahor both married. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah.
The meat of his fellowship offering of thanksgiving must be eaten on the day it is offered; he must leave none of it till morning.
'Of the animals that move about on the ground, these are unclean for you: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
one young bull, one ram and one male lamb a year old, for a burnt offering;
But Moses replied, "Are you jealous for my sake? I wish that all the LORD's people were prophets and that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!"
The LORD will keep you free from every disease. He will not inflict on you the horrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but he will inflict them on all who hate you.
When the LORD your God has brought you into the land you are entering to possess, you are to proclaim on Mount Gerizim the blessings, and on Mount Ebal the curses.
When Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he worshiped God. He returned to the camp of Israel and called out, "Get up! The LORD has given the Midianite camp into your hands."
Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah. He crossed Gilead and Manasseh, passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from there he advanced against the Ammonites.
1 Kings:
He cast two bronze pillars, each eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits around, by line.
About that time Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, and Ahijah the prophet of Shiloh met him on the way, wearing a new cloak. The two of them were alone out in the country,
1 Chronicles:
Makir took a wife from among the Huppites and Shuppites. His sister's name was Maacah. Another descendant was named Zelophehad, who had only daughters.
Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite,
of Binnui
in En Rimmon, in Zorah, in Jarmuth,
11:29 does not exist, but 112:9 does:
He who digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit he has made.
He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor, his righteousness endures forever; his horn will be lifted high in honor.
So I came out to meet you; I looked for you and have found you!
He who brings trouble on his family will inherit only wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise.
Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Nothing outside a man can make him 'unclean' by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a man that makes him 'unclean.'
Jesus replied, "I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
As the crowds increased, Jesus said, "This is a wicked generation. It asks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.
The Jews were amazed and asked, "How did this man get such learning without having studied?"
When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.
Then Jacob went down to Egypt, where he and our fathers died.
The disciples, each according to his ability, decided to provide help for the brothers living in Judea.
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.
for God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
1 Corinthians:
But if the unbeliever leaves, let him do so. A believing man or woman is not bound in such circumstances; God has called us to live in peace.
For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.
2 Corinthians:
And his affection for you is all the greater when he remembers that you were all obedient, receiving him with fear and trembling.
Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?
And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears,
By faith the people passed through the Red Sea as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.
So, which do you ladies and gentlemen find the the most interesting and do any of them make any Umineko sense?

I would probably say Psalms is the book to mine from, seeing as how the other spells were phrases from that. At worst, maybe Proverbs as well?
It may indicate whoever is doing this likes the Old Testament (Torah) better than the new. Especially with the use of Hebrew.

Didn't catch anything incredibly mind-warping, but I did catch a wolf in sheep's clothing line, which is sort of related to Maria's puzzle book.
Oh, I've got it! Maria's puzzlebook is secretly a Bible!
Nah. Other than that, I've got nothing.
Sorry Oliver, but I think the Bible search was futile.

These days President Barack Obama might travel in a heavily armored high tech limo nicknamed "The Beast", but the commander-in-chief began his driving career in a decidedly low-tech Malaise-mobile.
The president revealed in a recent interview with AAA that he made his driving debut behind the wheel of a Ford Granada—
"I have to confess; my first car was my grandfather's car," Obama told AAA in an interview. "Which was a Ford Granada." While the Ford Motor Company "is doing great now," Obama said the Granada "was not the peak of Detroit engineering." "It rattled and it shook," Obama said. "And I don't think the girls were particularly impressed when I came to pick them up in a Ford Granada."
Amusingly enough it appears that despite it's obvious shortcomings the President has good memories of his first car.
"You know what?" Obama told AAA. "It moved and so I have fond memories of the fact that it got me to where I needed to go. That's about all I can say about the Ford Granada."
Certainly a more diplomatic assessment than we would allow a Granada.

In today's competitive work, farm, and ranch environment, many customers are looking for an economical utility tractor with more horsepower and better performance to handle common chores and still provide a comfortable working environment for the operator.
Building on the popular 6003 Series Tractors, the new 6D Series provides even more features and value for the dollar.
"The top three models are powered by a 4.5L PowerTech E diesel engine with a high-pressure common rail (HPCR) injection system," says Alejandro Galindo, product manager, John Deere Waterloo Tractor Works. "These efficient engines are designed to provide power when needed to handle even the toughest jobs."
The 6100D features a field-proven, fuel-efficient 100-hp PowerTech engine with rotary fuel injection pump. It's designed to deliver excellent power and lugging ability in a variety of work situations.
"We've improved the transmission on the 6D Series," says Galindo. "The all-new 9F/9R electro-hydraulic PowrReverser is standard equipment. Once the operator sets the range and gear, a handy left-hand reverser lever is used to move the tractor forward or reverse without clutching! Loader work is easier and more efficient with this new transmission."
A new wet-clutch design ensures reliable, long life with improved control. The new design also helps overall tractor performance for the many jobs required of a utility tractor.
"Tractor operators will truly appreciate the large, quiet cab available for these tractors," says Galindo. "And we've increased visibility to the front by relocating the exhaust pipe and visibility to the rear by repositioning the hydraulic selective control valves (SCVs). Customers now have an unobstructed view to the front loader and rear drawbar. Customers will enjoy first-class comfort with color-coded controls that are easy to operate and a new optional air-suspension seat."
Other features include an exclusive telescopic/tilt steering wheel which can be set for ideal positioning for any operator height and a high-capacity air conditioning/heating system to keep the operator comfortable in all weather conditions. An optional two-function mechanical joystick is available for optimum loader operation.
Open station models maintain the clean and uncluttered design of previous models and the entry and exit is easy for the operator without levers or controls to straddle over. A two-post Roll-Gard assures a safe operator environment and can be folded for low-clearance areas.
"The hydraulic flow on the 6D Series has been increased up to 46 percent depending on the model," says Galindo. "There is more flow and pressure for demanding loader, three-point hitch and implement work. We've improved front loader capacity and operators will get more loader work done in less time than our previous model tractors."
Two standard Selective Control Valves (SCVs) are both within easy reach on the right hand console. The easily-set float position allows implements to follow ground contours and, with a special regenerative position, the system has faster cycle times for loader operation. An optional deluxe hydraulic valve system is available with three SCVs and provides adjustable flow and detents supporting a broader range of hydraulic pump requirements.
"The tractors also feature a rugged PTO system, with two speeds as base equipment — 540 and 1,000 rpm — to handle any implement in your operation. It's easy to convert between different implement speeds and the independent PTO unit stays running whenever you clutch, stop, or downshift to keep power flowing," includes Galindo.
The 6D Series Tractors are available in two-wheel drive (2WD) or mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD) configurations. Regardless of the operating conditions, the rugged axle design allows for a tight turning radius to maneuver efficiently in headlands, livestock building areas, and many loader applications around the home, work, farm, and ranch operation.
"Servicing the new tractors is also a snap and we've reduced time and input costs by increasing service intervals," explains Galindo. "For example, hydraulic oil only needs to be changed once every 1,000 hours, an easy tilt-up hood allows for an easy engine air filter and radiator coolant check, and replacing the air filter does not require any tools."
The economy, versatility, and comfort of the new 6D Series Tractors are a great addition to the John Deere tractor lineup. They will help customers get more done in a variety of chores with better comfort, visibility, maneuverability, and power.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced today that it has settled its civil injunctive action against Eric J. McCracken, the former Chief Financial Officer of airplane instrument manufacturer Aerosonic Corporation (Aerosonic). McCracken consented, without admitting or denying the allegations in the Complaint, to the entry of a Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction and Other Relief (Final Judgment), which the court entered on February 10, 2006. The Final Judgment permanently enjoins McCracken from violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act), and Sections 10(b) and 13(b)(5) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rules 10b-5, 13b2-1, 13b2-2, and 13a-14, thereunder, and from aiding and abetting violations of Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13 (b)(2)(B) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, and 13a-13, thereunder, and bars him from serving as an officer or director of a public company. The Final Judgment further orders McCracken to pay $40,000 in disgorgement, but does not impose a civil penalty against McCracken based on the sworn financial statements and other information he provided to the Commission.
In its Complaint, the SEC alleged that from January 1999 through December 2002, McCracken and Aerosonic's former CEO implemented various accounting schemes designed to artificially inflate Aerosonic's reported pre-tax earnings. Among their schemes, they allegedly caused Aerosonic to overstate inventory by falsifying inventory records and by failing to provide adequate reserves for Aerosonic's obsolete and slow moving inventory. In addition, McCracken and the former CEO allegedly caused Aerosonic to report inflated earnings by recording fictitious and premature revenue. McCracken financially benefited from his fraudulent activities by reaping lucrative bonuses and by selling his Aerosonic stock while its price was artificially inflated as a result of Aerosonic's false filings and press releases.
For further information, see Litigation Release No. 18935 (October 20, 2004). [Securities and Exchange Commission v. John Mervyn Nabors and Eric J. McCracken, Civil Action No. 8:04-CV-02288-Merryday (M.D. Fla. Oct. 18, 2004)].

As I had posted before, I wanted to compare how a preferment Lehmann dough ball and a MA#2 dough ball would compare when making a Greek pizza in how the final pizza tasted and also how both bottoms browned, if the same amount of dough was used, both pies were baked at the same time, both were dressed the same, the same amount of manteca was added to the 10 steel pans, and the bake times were both the same.
Although Tom suggested using oil in the pan, the poster did not mention it. scott r once mentioned that oil was more common for pub style pizzas than Greek style pizzas, so it is possible that the poster does not oil his pans. That perhaps wouldn't be the best idea for those who use perforated pans anyway.
norma, at one time I was baking up lots of greek style pizzas with the ishca starter. It was always my best as well! I think wild yeast just makes everything better
for me the greek pizza thing isnt really about a special recipe (some of the best places use egg, some milk, lots of oil, and some great spots dont use any of these things). What makes this style of pizza special is how the dough is allowed to rise a bit before baking, the oil in the pan, along with what happens to the cheese as it touches the pan during baking. I have used many variations including trying all the whacky stuff (milk and eggs). I usually end up gravitating to a simple recipe thats slightly on the higher side as far as hydration goes, and I don't use a lot of oil in the dough because I use it in the pan. A good starting point for a recipe would be something like 63% hydration, 2% sugar or 3% honey, 2.2% salt, and 15% wild yeast. Typically I use tiny amounts of wild yeast, but for this style its nice to let the dough move a little faster during that last subtle rise in the pan. I might change these numbers depending on what flour I was using. Above all else the most important factor is always your dough proofing and mixing technique, so these are by no means "magic numbers". Good luck!

Skateboard Legend Stacy Peralta Demonstrates His Latest Trick: Cashing In By Going Direct-To-Fan
from the how-it-all-works dept
Now, as the latest Sundance is underway, TopSpin's Bob Moczydlowsky has a post with some details of how it all went, noting that going direct to fan was massively successful for Peralta, allowing him to both make more money and still retain the rights to the film, rather than selling them off to some other entity.
And now, a year after the Sundance premiere and six months from the start of the direct-to-fan release powered by Topspin, Film Sales Company and our partners awe.sm and The Uprising Creative, Stacy has earned more from direct sales than he would have from the combined total of the domestic and foreign sales offers. And, because a Topspin direct release does not require licensing rights, Stacy and Andrew Herwitz from Film Sales Company were then able to do their own Transactional VOD and Third-party license deals. Stacy and his financing partners quickly recouped the budget of the film, and the copyright remains in their hands for the future.They also included a nice little pie chart (to scale), showing how much bigger the pie was with what Peralta ended up doing:
That really is the key. "I self financed, got the investment back, am now in profit and I own the copyright and will continue to earn all other sales for the next ten years," says Stacy. "And it is all because I was empowered for the very first time to really do it myself from start to finish. Topspin has done for distribution what the Handycam did for shooting or the Avid did for editing. Topspin put it all in my hands and suddenly everything I needed was within my reach: pure and simple filmmakers democracy."
One of the more frustrating aspects of discussing these business model issues with some people is their assumption that the "pie" is static (or, worse, shrinking). It's a classic mistake in economics for those who think that everything is a zero sum game. But one of the great things about new technologies and services is how they enable a much broader audience and increase the opportunities, opening up wider possibilities -- especially for creators who really know how to engage with their fans.

But what's most cosmically appropriate about this no-nonsense yet all-nonsense action flick is how Reeves' greatest strength as a star — his fluid, imposing physicality — is also his best asset as a director. The brutally efficient shooting style Reeves employs to film master choreographer Yuen Woo Ping's breathtaking fights — mostly one-on-one showdowns in tight quarters featuring Chen against a series of deadly intent opponents — is refreshingly grounded and old-school kinetic, reminiscent of Jackie Chan's athletic roundelays over the increasingly fantastical Hong Kong action movies of late.
There's even a welcome exuberance to the philosophical debate at hand: Should tai chi be an inner strength or an outward force, or both? Chen, who helped train Reeves on the "Matrix" films, proves a better actor fighting than when left alone with the camera. But that's a quibble for a movie streamlined to evoke the timeless zip of martial arts movies past.
