DENVER Nevada's Tyler Schafer and Katie Holverson have been named the Western Athletic Conference Hitter and Pitcher of the Week, respectively. This is the first WAC Player of the Week of the 2008 season.
Schafer, a senior from Star, Idaho (Eagle), led Nevada to a 3-2 start to the 2008 season by hitting .412 at the Freeway Series Tournament hosted by UCLA and Cal State Fullerton. Schafer had seven hits in the tournament and recorded a hit in four of the five games. She went 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI as Nevada topped No. 21 Cal State Fullerton, the sixth time in program history that the Wolf Pack has beaten a ranked opponent.
"Tyler had a very good weekend," Nevada coach Michelle Gardner said. "Obviously, as our leadoff hitter, she is the table-setter for our offense. She did a great job of getting on base and making things happen."
Holverson, a sophomore from Anthem, Ariz. (Cactus), appeared in four games and went 2-1 for Nevada with a 1.56 earned-run average. She picked up her first win with a complete-game, one-earned run effort against UC Santa Barbara. Against No. 5 Oklahoma, Holverson was solid, yielding six hits and just one walk while striking out six and giving up just one run. The sophomore came on in relief against No. 21 Cal State Fullerton and tossed 2.2 innings of scoreless ball to pick up the victory. In the tournament, she struck out 20, walked just five and yielded only three earned runs.
"Katie was absolutely phenomenal this weekend," Gardner said. "She had command of her pitcher and she looked very, very strong. The interesting thing that her best performance was against No. 5 Oklahoma, which was the one game she got the loss in."
Other hitter of the week nominees included: Caitlin Stiglich of Fresno State hit .667 with four hits in two Bulldog wins ... Amberley Waits for Louisiana Tech hit .364 with four hits ... Stephanie Herrera of New Mexico State hit .438 with one RBI as the Aggies went 1-4 last week.
Other pitcher of the week nominees included: Morgan Melloh of Fresno State was 2-0 last week with 16 strikeouts ... Kim Watson of New Mexico State went 1-2 with one complete game.

Four Factor!
American DJ's Quad Scan LED Combines 4 RGB Scanners
Into One Portable Unit To Quadruple Lighting Coverage And Excitement
LOS ANGELES – (For Immediate Release) – If 2's company and 3's a crowd, then 4 must be a pack-'em-in party that fills the house with wall-to-wall excitement. That it definitely is – if you're talking about American DJ's new Quad Scan LED, an amazing RGB effect that combines 4 Tri-Color LED scanners into one portable lighting unit.
A sleek-looking rectangular fixture, the Quad Scan LED is equipped with 4 powerful 3-watt Tri-Color RGB scanning lamps that produce a variety of brilliant colors and gobo patterns. Moving to exciting built-in programs, the 4 scanners project their dazzling effects throughout the entire room, providing extremely wide area coverage and giving mobile entertainers and nightclubs plenty of bang for their lighting buck.
With each of its lamps consisting of a Tri-Color LED source (red, green and blue), the Quad Scan LED provides superior RGB mixing and bright, vivid colors. The unit also comes with 4 replaceable gobos (gobo size: 20.5mm; viewable size: 12mm), which can easily be substituted with custom gobo designs such as a club logo, party themes, names of the bride and groom, or drink specials. Combined with the Quad Scan LED's far-reaching scanning action, this customizability lets you instantly project any "message" or graphic throughout an entire room or venue.
Perfect for working DJs, mobile entertainers, bands, clubs, roller rinks and bowling alleys, the Quad Scan LED is very compact and lightweight; its rectangular shape lends itself to easy transport and storage. Designed to be very budget-friendly too, the highly portable unit does the job of four scanners and more, all for an affordable MSRP of just $419.95.
"The Quad Scan LED is the right tool for mobile entertainers who have high professional standards and a lot of ground to cover with their light shows," said Alfred Gonzales, national sales manager for American DJ. "With a total of four Tri-Color LEDs, customizable gobos, and all the other latest professional features, this incredible new American DJ fixture produces a roomful of stunning effects, and allows lighting users to take on even the biggest gigs with utmost confidence and total creative control."
Even lighting novices will be able to start using the Quad Scan LED right out of the box. The easy-to-operate unit can be run in three different modes: Sound-Active, Master-Slave, or DMX-512. You can create instant light shows simply by flicking it on in Sound Active mode and letting it run through its built-in programs. More experienced lighting users can program their own scenes and sequences by DMX input, with 3 different DMX channel mode options (1, 2 or 28 channels). The unit is also compatible with American DJ's easy-to-use UC3 controller (sold separately), which gives non-DMX users the ability to turn the unit on/off and activate built-in programs. Multiple Quad Scan LEDs (up to 5 units) can be daisy-chained together via the unit's IEC AC in/out connectors to cover venues of all sizes.
Other performance-enhancing features include a digital LED DMX display with 4-button menu on the rear panel that makes for incredibly easy navigation; an electrifying strobe/pulse effect, with random strobing from slow to fast; and intensity control via complete dimming from 0–100%.
Although it covers big areas, the Quad Scan LED consumes very little energy, drawing just 65 watts of electricity at maximum use. Maintenance costs will be kept to a minimum as well, since the unit's 4 long-life Tri-Color LEDs have a lifetime rating of 50,000 hours and virtually never need replacing. Equipped with a built-in fan, the Quad Scan LED can run all night without duty cycles.
The Quad Scan LED includes multi-voltage operation: AC 100–240V, 50/60Hz. Designed for easy portability and packing a powerful punch for its size, the compact and lightweight fixture measures 17.25″L x 13.5″W x 5″H (438 x 338 x 126mm) and weighs only 13.5 lbs. (6kgs) — making it especially attractive for mobile DJs and traveling performers. Users can easily attach the provided hanging clamp and safety hook for worry-free mounting.
The MSRP of the Quad Scan LED is $419.95.
The Quad Scan LED can fit into the Arriba Cases model AC-155 protective bag, which offers a lightweight, affordable solution for transporting the unit and keeps it free of dust and dirt when not in use.

Due to server failure i would like to move a scsi ISA raid controler + 4 hard drives to another pc to recover the data inside them(raid 5). This raid isn´t a boot raid, there´s another raid holding the OS. So my question is can this be done?
And if yes how can i go around doing it. should i plug the controller first on the other pc that already has an operating system on it, install drivers for it and if everything is ok, plug in the drives? Or should i just plug the raid controller with the hard drives already connected, install drivers for it and hope after reboot all my files are there.
thanks in advance

We report on studies of the effects of hoop and axial tensile stresses on magnetic flux leakage (MFL) signals from 50% penetration electrochemically milled pits eroded in line pipe steel. It is observed that stress can change the MFL signal by more than 50%, depending on the magnetization of the pipe wall. The studies were performed on pits created in both the absence and presence of 330-MPa hoop or axial tensile stress. The MFL results obtained in the two cases show detectable differences if the applied stress is high enough to create plastic deformation in the regions of stress concentration near the pits. The effect of stress applied during pit erosion is less than that when the same stress is applied during the subsequent measurements. Magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) measurements have been used to study the stress concentrations around electrochemically milled and mechanically drilled defects and have shown that significant additional stress and plastic deformation can be introduced during mechanical drilling. The MBN results are used to assist interpretation of the stress-dependent MFL results

Pulitzers are for pussies
In 2004, an auto writer for the Los Angeles Times won a Pulitzer Prize.
I predict that within at least three years, Dan Savage will win a Pulitzer Prize for his "Savage Love" column.
If a car writer can win one, can Dan be far behind?
"Far Behind!"
Dan can probably think of something "Savage Love" related to that!
And it might be worth $10,000 in PP money!
Stop trying to draw attention to yourself. You're quite an insecure little man, aren't you?

Patrick Ewing was rendered helpless during the 90′s as he wanted Michael Jordan and the Bulls run through New York four times on their way to NBA Championships. The former rivals on the basketball court are now going to team up and try to right the ship in Charlotte. Jordan has hired Ewing as an assistant coach for the Charlotte Hornets/Bobcats. A formal announcement is expected later this week. Michael Jordan recently hired new head coach Steve Clifford, and now Ewing will join him on the bench. Clifford and Ewing have some history together being apart of Stan Van Gundy's staff in Orlando. When the Magic traded Dwight Howard to the Los Angeles Lakers, Clifford left the Magic as well. Ewing has also worked under Stan's brother Jeff Van Gundy in Houston. The Jordan-Ewing connection continues with both of them appearing in the movie "Space Jam". Jordan's North Carolina squad defeated Ewing and Georgetown in 1982 for the NCAA title. And both players were part of the 1992 USA Men's basketball squad known as "The Dream Team", and were each represented by the same agent. Jordan bypassed the opportunity for Patrick Ewing and eight other candidates to become Charlotte's head coach. St. John's Mike Dunlap was ultimately named head coach, and Jordan fired Dunlap after one season. Ewing took this past season off from coaching after failing to land the gig in Charlotte. Ewing had also been in considerations for the head coaching job in Sacramento. The biggest winners in this deal will be the post players for Charlotte. The four designated post players for Charlotte combined to score an average of 18.3 points per game last season. Ewing finished his career with a 21.0 points per game average. Ewing's experience should help boost the numbers of Charlotte's low post players. Jordan has done some very questionable moves with this flailing franchise. He may have done himself a favor in hiring Patrick Ewing. Since Jordan took over the Charlotte organization, the team has changed their nickname and lost 100 more games than they have won. Now, these formal rivals will look to join together and rebuild from the NBA cellar.

Everyone has days where they feel blah, down, or sad. Typically, these feelings disappear after a day or two, particularly if circumstances change for the better. People experiencing the temporary "blues" don't feel a sense of crushing hopelessness or helplessness, and are able, for the most part, to continue to engage in regular activities. Prolonged anhedonia (the inability to experience pleasure), hopelessness, and failure to experience an increase in mood in response positive events rarely accompany "normal" sadness. The same may be said for other, more intense sorts of symptoms such as suicidal thoughts and hallucinations (e.g., hearing voices). Instead, such symptoms suggest that serious varieties of depression may be present, including the subject of this document: Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) or (more informally),
Major Depression.
For people dealing with Major Depression, negative feelings linger, intensify, and o...

Hey, I'm Sam!
Hello there! I'm Sam, an Account Manager at Microsoft who loves travelling as much as playing with the latest technology.
I've used Airbnb for trips to Lisbon, Barcelona, Munich, New York, Washington DC, San Francisco, Portland, Vancouver and Toronto. My first Airbnb experience was in 2009, so I'm no stranger to the service! I find it a wonderful way to see cities a little more authentically.
Here's my profile from my tour of America trip, to give an idea of my typical travelling style:
We'll be out exploring the city most of the time - trying to make best use of the limited time we have in each city - with the apartment as a haven to retreat to at the end of a long day.
We'll be quiet, clean and very respectful of your home. The most important things to us are a clean and safe environment, along with a reliable and organised host so we can rest easy knowing it'll be a simple experience. If you can provide any local expertise to add to our experience then all the better - but we'll have done our homework, so shouldn't be a burden if you're busy.

Dish Reports Profit That Trails Estimates on Customer Losses
Dish Network Corp., the second-largest U.S. satellite-television provider, reported profit that trailed analysts' estimates after losing subscribers.
Earnings excluding some items were 75 cents a share, the Englewood, Colorado-based company said today in a statement. Analysts projected 79 cents, the average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
A sluggish economy may hurt Dish more than its competitors, said Ryan Vineyard, an analyst at RBC Capital Markets in New York. Dish targets lower-income subscribers with cheaper packages than DirecTV, its larger satellite rival, which used promotions to lure customers last quarter.
"Dish was not aggressive in the marketplace, and unlike DirecTV, Dish did not respond to the promotional environment," Todd Mitchell, an analyst at Brean Murray Carret & Co. in New York, said in a note to clients. He recommends buying the stock.
Dish fell 6 cents to $22.58 at 4 p.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market trading. The shares have risen 15 percent this year.
The company lost 135,000 subscribers in the quarter, compared with DirecTV's gain of 26,000 U.S. customers. Jason Bazinet, an analyst at Citigroup Inc. in New York, estimated a loss of 60,000 for Dish. In the first quarter, Dish gained 58,000 customers, and in the year-earlier period it lost 19,000.
Image Change
Chief Executive Officer Joseph Clayton said on a conference call today that Dish cut back on promotions and marketing to lower-income, less profitable customers. Dish has had an image of being "cheap, cheap, cheap" to consumers and will attempt to eliminate that message with advertising that showcases the company's technology, Clayton said.
"I don't think we should loosen up our credit standards," Clayton said. "In fact, the exact opposite. I'm looking for a better class of customers" who will buy higher-priced packages.
Dish purchased Blockbuster LLC in April -- a content advantage over its rivals, said Clayton -- and Sling Media Inc., maker of the Slingbox, in 2007. Dish will also unveil new customer promotions to win back customers in the third and fourth quarters, Clayton said.
Net income rose to $335 million from $257 million a year earlier. Sales rose 13 percent to $3.59 billion, compared with the $3.39 billion average analyst estimate.
'Seinfeld' Strategy
Dish management won't "tip our hands," Clayton said, to give details about its plan to integrate Blockbuster, as well as DBSD North America Inc. and TerreStar Networks Inc., acquisitions that are still pending. In May, Chairman Charlie Ergen said Dish's strategy was like an episode of "Seinfeld," with all the parts coming together at the end.
Dish will consider more acquisitions, partnerships and divestitures as it decides on the best way to use the wireless spectrum it gains from DBSD and TerreStar, Clayton said.
"Results are consistent with our thesis that Dish is undergoing a repositioning," said Mitchell, the analyst. "The company's intention is to enhance its service profile by repurposing itself from a one-way satellite broadcast platform to a two-way hybrid satellite-wireless network."

I want to do some coding in my spare time, but the thing is, I don't want to spend the money on this.
Would the following set of development tools be The Right Thing, or is there something I'm forgetting?
- Eclipse for C++
- SVN for source control
- Qt for UI development (since it's C++, and I believe it's now opened by Nokia)
- hudson for continuous integration
I'd like to write a little image processing application that can run on any platform, but the main platform at the moment will be Windows with a possible movement to the Mac-- hence all the cross-platform tools.
Is there anything really obvious I'm forgetting? Like something like fxcop for style checking in C++?
If I use any libraries, I'd like to avoid GPL libraries; if things go south with my current employer, I'll want to monetize this.

PHILADELPHIA --- Every year, Kathy Dorenbos would make sure each of her three children would have a Christmas ornament to hang. Sometimes she would make them herself out of bread dough, stenciling in a date on the back. She was always there for her children, Randy, Krissy and Jon. It didn't matter the time or place. Mom was there.
Especially at Christmas time.
That's why Jon Dorenbos (pronounced DORN-bahs) will take out his favorite fire truck ornament, the one made by his mom and carefully preserved after all these years, look down on it and smile. It's why this time of year is always a little difficult for the 26-year-old Philadelphia Eagles long snapper. The reminders. So many reminders. It would have been nice for Kathy to see Jon today, playing in the NFL.
But she's watching from somewhere, Jon likes to think.
On Aug. 2, 1992, Kathy was killed by her husband Alan after an argument in the family garage in a Seattle suburb. Jon, 12 at the time, was the only one else home. Krissy was in California visiting relatives and Randy was at a basketball camp. Randy and Jon testified at their father's trial in November 1992.
Alan Dorenbos turned himself in the following day and was eventually convicted of second-degree murder. He served a little more than 13 years. He has done his time and is out of prison, but Jon, Krissy and Randy have no contact with their father. The three have managed to deal with the anger and resentment toward their father.
Jon has taken it a step further.
"I forgive my father for what he did," says Jon, who was adopted and raised by his aunt and uncle. "Maybe I haven't forgiven him for the act, but I've forgiven him. Maybe he was lost in life at that time. But I've never tried contacting my father, and he's never tried contacting me. I was 12 when it happened, and the trial was in November, around the holiday season, with Thanksgiving and Christmas time. It's hard when you're a kid that age, because everything then was like a dream to me, as if it really didn't happen.
"I forgive my father for what he did. Maybe I haven't forgiven him for the act, but I've forgiven him"
Jon Dorenbos, Eagles long snapper
"I remember being at the trial and asking my Aunt Susan each day, 'Where's mom? Where's mom?' I was aware of what happened, but knowing and believing are two different things. As I got older, I started to see things more clearly. I learned about life. I learned about forgiveness."
And Dorenbos, an accomplished magician, has learned to captivate a room with his personality, his amazing sleight-of-hand magic tricks and his enduring laugh.
"Jon's always been an inspiration to me," says Krissy, 29, a medical researcher in Phoenix. "He was always the kid who stood up for the kid that the bullies were picking on. That's Jon. He's kind, charismatic and sincere, and that's because Jon is an extrovert. That rubs off on people. Jon was always able to radiate this positive energy."
It's that attitude that has kept Dorenbos in the NFL. He is with his third team. Buffalo signed him as an undrafted free agent out of Texas-El Paso in 2003. He played two seasons for the Bills, nine games with Tennessee last season and one game this season with the Titans. He was picked up by the Eagles in late November as a replacement for Eagles regular long snapper Mike Bartram, who went on injured reserve with a career-threatening neck injury.
Dorenbos will play Christmas day on national TV against the Cowboys in a game that potentially could decide the NFC East title.
Randy has constructed a creative scrapbook of his family, sketching the lives and background of Kris, Jon and his own life. It was Randy's way of dealing with his mother's tragic death. It's something he'll share with family again during the holidays, poring over pictures and memories.
And ornaments.
"There is one that my mother actually made me when I was around 4 or 5, where I'm on Santa's lap with the largest thick-framed glasses you'd ever see in your life, crying, like a kid who didn't want to be there," says Randy, 32, a store manager in Corona, Calif. "My mother put that picture in a small, round, gold frame. It's the size of a silver dollar, and I still have it after all these years. It makes me laugh and think of mom. She's proud of what Jon's doing and the success he's made of himself. I say that in the present tense, because to me, it's not like she's gone. She's still here watching."
On Monday night in Philadelphia, Dorenbos mesmerized kids and adults with his magic act after a TV appearance at a local restaurant.
"I've been approached about doing a movie and a book about my life and what I've been through," Jon says. "I remember the trial ... [my father] looked at me with this cold, black stare. Through time, I never wanted revenge. But I also learned there [is] no such thing as long odds in this world. Not for me. I don't believe in failure. I've been fortunate enough to have great family and friends around me.
"I suppose those are the kind of Christmas presents people want around them every year."

Op-ed: Stop the delaying tactics; approve 2211 Harold Way
The city process for the project at 2211 Harold Way is closing in on three years. In December 2012 the first application was submitted and the project is currently scheduled for another Zoning Board hearing on September 30, 2015.
I love Berkeley. I love its quirky charms and I love the passion that older generations have for their community. But enough is enough. The endless delays are amounting to a housing status quo that not only affects the ability of Berkeley to grow with the extant flood of talent and innovation, but is also a de facto barrier to cultural and economic diversity. I find it jarring that a community so proud of its history of fighting for rights of all people would then continue to obstruct the very instrument that will allow for population growth, new economic opportunities and increased community diversity.
During this three-year period the project has had in excess of 30 meetings, including many design review committee hearings where the project design was changed in order to accommodate requests and concerns of the City and the public. This includes the addition of new theaters, which was not a part of the original design. The fact remains that the reason theaters were not included in the original design is because the revenue received from the theaters does not compensate for the construction costs. The theaters will never be able to compensate the owner at a market rate. This point is even clearer when you consider the letter dated April 15, 2013 from Landmark Theaters that clearly states that the current theaters' model is not financially viable. … Continue reading »
Op-ed: Harold Way deserves better than Berkeley
Harold Way could be one of the best streets in Downtown Berkeley. It's a quiet, narrow, low-traffic, shady street with some beautiful architecture from the Dharma College buildings. It's highly accessible – with a parking garage next door, in direct proximity to both Shattuck and Milvia (and the bike station on Shattuck), and just a few hundred feet from Downtown Berkeley BART. Harold Way is easy to get to by bus, BART, bike, foot, or car. With all the other opportunities in Downtown, a trip to Harold Way could easily be combined with a visit to the library, the theaters, the pharmacy, or even when making a transfer on the daily commute.
But right now, there's not much to visit on Harold Way. Right now, it's a bleak, abandoned street in the heart of our thriving downtown. A featureless wall greets pedestrians at the intersection with Allston, and runs the entire length of Harold Way and up Kittredge Street, with one break in the monotony for the sunken entrance to Habitot Children's Museum, whose street-level windows are protected by metal bars. A recent evening walk revealed that every streetlight along the road was either burnt out or nonfunctional.
It's ridiculous to leave such an accessible location underdeveloped when Berkeley stores and residents are facing rising rents due to limited retail and housing opportunities. Given that the eastern side of Harold Way is also the least utilized area within the Downtown Area Plan's "Core Area" (approved by voters to allow 180-ft buildings), it's highly sensible to build one of Berkeley's new high-rises here, where the impact on most of Downtown and disruption to other businesses will be minimized. … Continue reading »

Hitman Absolution
Version and / or Patch Used: Latest Steam Update
Timedemo or Level Used: Built in Benchmark
Developer Homepage: http://www.ioi.dk/
Product Homepage: http://hitman.com/
Hitman: Absolution is an action-adventure stealth game developed by I/O Interactive and published by Square Enix. It is the fifth entry in the Hitman game series, and runs on I/O Interactive's proprietary Glacier 2 game engine. Before release, the developers stated that Absolution would be easier to play and more accessible, while still retaining hardcore aspects of the franchise. The game was released on 20 November 2012, which is in the 47th week of the year (in reference to the protagonist, Agent 47).
Apart from 2560 x 1600 which sees a couple of extra FPS in the minimum and average, we don't see a whole lot of change as we're hitting an FPS wall at the lower resolutions.
NVIDIA also hits a wall, but it comes into play much earlier. Because of this, we really see the R9 290X 4GB get quite the jump on both the heavily overclocked GTX 780 Lightning and GTX TITAN 6GB SuperClocked.

I just posted successfully on HELX board.Except for "getting" that HELX big earnings was not going to sustain any pop, I tend only to follow technical stuff once I've got it in my head that a company is a sound buy fundamentally. From what I can get from market cap on yahoo it would appear that REM is about 4 times larger than HELX pre merger. If nice E&P companies, like XEC, EPL, SM, etc are selling for about 9-11 times earnings and REM earnings might have tanked it sans merger (see RES for oil stock just meeting earnings and then tanking), would it make sense to do weighted average of 11x current earnings for REM and 25x for HELX as a big earnings reward for it, and come up with a combined comparable fair value PE of roughly 14? Would love cogent comments.
read my post helx given a buy by Standard & poors says over sold and undervalued 4 stars and paints a rosy picture for 06 eps and on.There fair price is way above what it is now.LOOK IT UP AND GET THE NUMBERS FROM S&P LOOKIN GOOD.

On Windows/Linux, what would be a way to run a sample measurement of the bandwidth that I have available? I need to run a measurement at periodic intervals. There are many website which will give you a measurement if you load the page in a browser. But I want to take many data points over several weeks, and these websites do not offer the data as a service, but as a flash UI, which is very hard to scrap. Also, Ideally I would like to make benchmarks using specific sites and url queries, and these tests are a bit obscure about what they are truly measuring
My problem is that It has become pretty obvious to me that my ISP is downthrottling the bandwidth of my home connection during business hours, assuming no one is at home, or that someone at home will not use much bandwidth. Since last time I've checked, my contract does not specify anything like this, I'm hoping to gather enough data over a period of a month to present a formal complaint about the bandwidth statistics and how they correlate with hours where the service seems to be down throttled.

15 Halloween-themed movies to watch this Halloween
Fancy watching something seasonally appropriate this October 31st? Here are our recommendations...
To all things there is a season, and right now, it's a great time to watch horror movies. But not just any horror movies (Santa's Slay, for example, is definitely not right for October.) You need to pick carefully. Here are 15 films that are set on or around Halloween, to get you into the pumpkin-carving spirit…
Halloween (1978)
Let's get the obvious one out of the way, for starters. Often cited as the film that sparked the 80s slasher trend (even though it's far from being the first movie of its kind) the first Halloween movie stars Jamie Lee Curtis as an innocent teenager who finds herself being targeted by a masked maniac with a knife. Most of the film feels a little dated now, especially if you've seen Scream and The Cabin in the Woods, which make fun of many of the tropes established here, but that opening sequence is still brilliant. If you're only going to watch one horror movie this Halloween, you might as well make it this one.
Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
All of the Halloween movies are set at Halloween, but listing them all here would be pretty tedious. The third one deserves a mention, though, because it isn't about Michael Myers killing babysitters. Instead, it's about the mysterious Silver Shamrock company, which appears to be manufacturing evil masks. At the time, it didn't go down well with audiences expecting a slasher, but it's acquired a cult following since. If nothing else, the Silver Shamrock jingle will stay with you – and totally get stuck in your head every Halloween for the rest of your life.
Hocus Pocus (1993)
Adults probably won't be creeped out by this Disney comedy about a group of kids who accidentally bring some long-dead evil witches back to life, but as a kid I found some scenes terrifying. Now I just love it because it's so much fun – watching the witches adjust to modern life is entertaining, particularly when they repeatedly fail to understand Halloween costumes, and the kids (including a very young Thora Birch) are endearing rather than annoying.
Trick 'R Treat (2007)
A schoolbus full of dead children. A corpse turned into a scarecrow. And a grumpy old man who hates Halloween. The stories in this Halloween-themed anthology pack in all of these and more. Thanks to some bizarre studio politics, this film had its release pushed back for years before it finally came out on DVD, but it's out now, so you might as well watch it.
Night of the Demons (1988)
Holding a séance at a Halloween party is never a good idea. Especially if you're having a party in an abandoned morgue. So when Angela and her friends try it in this 80s-tastic horror movie, all hell breaks loose. It's a daft movie for the most part, but it does have some distinctly disturbing scenes (the bit with the lipstick, in particular, still makes me shudder) and, hey, it's probably a better idea to watch this than attempt to have your own Halloween séance.
Idle Hands (1999)
When a lazy pothead finds his under-used left hand has become possessed by the devil, he cuts it off. Cue Addams Family-style chaos as the severed hand goes on a killing spree. Idle Hands is more of a comedy than a horror movie, but it has some great gory moments, including the scene where The Offspring are murdered at the local high school's Halloween party, and there are plenty of great costumes on show.
Ghostwatch (1992)
It's not really a film but Ghostwatch is brilliant, and totally appropriate creepy Halloween viewing. Although it purports to be a live broadcast from a haunted house (and BBC studios), Ghostwatch was originally shown on 31 October 1992, which should have tipped people off that it maybe wasn't entirely serious – but lots of people apparently really believed what they were seeing, even going so far as to call into the show with their own stories. (The phone operators clued them in, don't worry.) Pipes, the malicious ghost, makes eight appearances during the show's 90 minute runtime, but they're not all obvious, so keep your eyes peeled…
Casper (1995)
Another one that's suitable for kids – or scaredy cats – all the climactic scenes of this 90s adaptation of the classic Casper cartoons take place at a Halloween party, where guests get more than they bargained for as some real ghosts get in on the action. It's sweet and adorable and it'll probably make you cry, if you have any kind of heart at all.
Satan's Little Helper (2005)
A videogame obsessed kid ends up unwittingly assisting a murderer in this low-budget comedy-horror. Dougie's favourite game involves playing Satan's little helper, so when he spots a man dressed as the devil he decides to play out the game for real – never quite realising that 'Satan' is really quite evil. Though it doesn't entirely work, there are some impressively creepy scenes in this film, so if you're bored of all the more well-known Halloween movies, it's worth seeking out.
Donnie Darko (2001)
There's so much weirdness going on in Donnie Darko that it's easy to forget that it is, technically, a Halloween film –but of course, it is, and the iconic 'Frank' rabbit mask is just part of a Halloween costume (though it's also much more than that). There's something quite self-conscious about Donnie Darko, and it doesn't really all fit together at the end, but it's kind of great anyway.
The Crow (1994)
Technically, the events of The Crow take place on October 30th ("Devil's Night") rather than Halloween itself, but for the purposes of this list, it seemed close enough. It's a basic revenge story, really: Eric and his fiancée Shelley are killed on the night before their wedding, and one year later, Eric returns from the dead to torture and kill their murderers. It hasn't really stood the test of time very well, but that's still one hell of a Halloween costume.
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
Jack Skellington decides he's had enough of being the Pumpkin King and sets his sights on another winter holiday instead in this amazing stop motion musical. (Naturally, his talent for the disturbing and creepy doesn't go down too well with the folk of Christmas Town.) So is The Nightmare Before Christmas a Halloween film, or a Christmas film? I say: both. If only because I spend the entirety of October singing "This Is Halloween", much to the distress of my boyfriend, who insists that song can only be sung on October 31st. Spoilsport.
May (2002)
May finds it hard to make friends. She's a very strange woman, with very strange interests, and no matter how interesting and quirky people find her at first, her weirdness always scares them off in the end. But her loneliness eventually pushes her to find a way around all that… Angela Bettis is amazing as the tragic title character, and despite the gore and creepiness, it's ultimately kind of heart-warming. And, of course, the climactic events all take place on Halloween.
Ginger Snaps (2000)
The Fitzgerald sisters don't need Halloween to be spooky – they're into wearing bird's skulls around their necks and faking their own deaths all year round – but when Ginger gets bitten by a werewolf, her transformation and the approach of Halloween coincide. Handy, really, since most people assume her fangs and claws are just part of a costume. Ginger Snaps is a fascinating take on werewolf mythology, and it's actually pretty scary, too.
Mean Girls (2004)
Alright, it's not a horror movie, but it does have a Halloween scene, so if you're not in the mood for anything truly scary, you can still get into the spirit with this teen comedy. Lindsay Lohan stars as the new girl trying to navigate the social complexities of an American high school, and the Halloween party really shows up how clueless she is – while every other girl has gone for some kind of flattering/'slutty' costume, she's the Bride of Frankenstein, complete with hideous yellow fake teeth. But honestly, do you really need an excuse to watch Mean Girls again? Thought not.

WordPress shows me a couple cool ones, but overall I'm not seeing these thousands of themes available to me I dont think.
Also, do I need to know how to do any coding and stuff like that? In the "Responsive" theme, to edit the homepage it seemed like I had to adjust code.

Public Talk: Using Technology to Measure Pain in Animals 10/28 7pm
Evaluating pain in animals is no easy task, as they cannot tell us where or how much they are hurting. In this informative session, Dr. Duncan Lascelles, professor of small animal surgery and pain management at the College of Veterinary Medicine at NC State, will discuss his pioneering research using accelerometers (similar to the wearable fitness trackers used by humans) to access information about movement patterns of domestic cats in their home environments. Lascelles will explain how he uses this data to inform his treatment decisions–from diet to medication–to help manage cats' pain.
This session is geared toward anyone interested in how veterinarians are using leading-edge technologies, as well as pet owners who want to learn more about what researchers are discovering about chronic pain.Admission Information

NCSU Libraries & Adam Matthew Digital Strike Groundbreaking Content Mining Agreement
Deal gives NC State researchers ability to mine robust collections of digital primary source archives
(Raleigh, N.C.) - By signing another pioneering content mining agreement—this time with Adam Matthew, a SAGE company—the NCSU Libraries has established itself as a leader in the research library world when it comes to licensing blanket access to commercially-vended historical collections.
This comes not long after their unprecedented data mining deals with Gale and Unlimited Priorities.
By agreeing to provide NC State researchers electronic access to 'Mass Observation Online,' sourced from the University of Sussex, England, and the ability to mine archival data on university servers, Adam Matthew Digital joins Gale as a leading-edge example for commercial vendors.
Darby Orcutt, Assistant Head of Collection Management for the NCSU Libraries, developed this library-vendor content mining model and considers it mutually beneficial: "Adam Matthew has added another facet of value and attractiveness to their products for researchers, while researchers have gained a valuable corpus that was previously unavailable for robust computational exploration."

Dr. Christopher Healey, Computer Science: Understanding Color for Data Visualization
Friday, February 20 at 9:15 a.m.
Hunt Library, Teaching & Visualization Lab
Dr. Chris Healey's work harnesses visual perception to create visualization techniques supporting the rapid and effective exploration and analysis of large, complex datasets.
"Colour is a familiar concept that we all recognize and use in our day-to-day lives. Understanding how colour 'works' is a much more fascinating problem, however, involving the physics of light, visual perception, language and culture, and context. This talk will touch on these issues by discussing them and demonstrating how they affect presenting data with colour. As a practical example, I will show how we used colour to visualize results from the recent 2014 U.S. elections." Dr. Gary Lackmann, Marine, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences
Friday, March 20 at 9:15 a.m.

Friday, April 17 at 9:15 a.m.
Hunt Library, Teaching & Visualization Lab
The Great Fire of London destroyed St. Paul's Cathedral in 1666. Nearly four centuries later, Professors John N. Wall (English) and David Hill (Architecture) have rebuilt it—in virtual space. Wall, a John Donne scholar, wanted to hear the famed poet and dean of the cathedral deliver one of his most famous sermons in order to experience the event "unfolding in real time in the context of an interactive and collaborative occasion."
The Virtual Paul's Cross Project (VPCP) uses architectural modeling software and digital acoustic simulations to recreate the visual, spatial, and auditory experience of Donne's Gunpowder Day sermon delivered on November 5th, 1622. At this Coffee & Viz lecture, Prof. Hill will present the research and modeling process that created the virtual environment of London's pre-fire St. Paul's Cathedral. He will discuss how digital tools can simulate momentous events in spaces that have not existed for hundreds of years.

A lot of liberals are chanting the mantra "US Laws supersede State Laws". Really?
Tell that to the states that have Medical Marijuana Laws – one being considered right here in River City. And decriminalization as well. The state laws in California have allowed medical pot for quite some time, though not all agreed with that statute.
San Diego County refused to comply with state laws to set up Medical Marijuana Clinics, and follow the various rules and regulations in place to dispense the substance. In fact, the County filed a lawsuit in 2006 claiming Federal Laws supersede State laws.
The lawsuit challenged the state-mandate to implement based on the argument that state law is preempted by federal law.
San Diego Superior Court and the Fourth District Court of Appeals rejected that argument. The California Supreme Court refused to review the case in 2008.
The San Diego Board of Supervisors voted to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. If the state courts refused to recognize Federal Domination over the states, surely the U.S. Supreme Court would, right?
Wrong. In May 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the landmark case brought by San Diego County, effectively negating any claim that Federal Law supersedes state law.
What that means is that should the Federal Government pass a law requiring Virginian's to purchase a product, be it Health Insurance or any other product, Virginia will seek an immediate injunction (should the law pass) and based on the San Diego County case, it will be granted.
I would also be willing to bet that at least 5 Supreme Court Justices could be found to hear such a case on an emergency basis and based on the State of the Union dressing down of these five justices, not to mention the fact that Obama was totally incorrect, expanding the powers of the Federal Government under the Obama Administration is not on the Supreme Court's docket.

Weibo Files for $500 Million U.S. IPO to Repay Parent Sina Corp.
Weibo Corp., China's biggest microblogging outlet, with 129 million monthly active users, filed to raise $500 million in an initial public offering in the U.S., according to a regulatory filing yesterday.
The company didn't specify the number or price of American depositary shares it will offer, using the figure as a placeholder to calculate registration fees. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Credit Suisse Group AG are managing the offering. The company plans to use some of the proceeds from the offering to repay loans to parent Sina Corp., which has a 78 percent stake.
Sina Weibo, based in Beijing, joins a slew of Chinese Internet companies looking to list newly issued shares in the U.S. JD.com Inc., the Chinese retailing website that just received an investment from Asia's largest Internet company Tencent Holdings Ltd., filed to raise $1.5 billion in the U.S. Jumei.com, a Chinese e-commerce company that sells cosmetics, is also planning an IPO in the States, people familiar with the matter said last month.
Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., China's biggest e-commerce company, agreed in April to buy an 18 percent stake in Sina Weibo for $586 million. Alibaba is also preparing to go public in 2014, people familiar with the matter have said.
Sina Weibo is valued at $5.1 billion after posting its first profit, according to the midpoint of analyst estimates. That makes it one-sixth the size of its U.S. peer Twitter Inc., which has a market value of $30 billion. Shares of the San Francisco-based microblogging service with more than 200 million users have almost doubled since the company's November debut.

Marina One Residences is one of the most awaited constructions in Singapore which is scheduled to complete in 2017. This construction is a combination of amazing structure and brilliant conceptualization. This is one of the few real estate projects in Singapore that is aiming at creating a multi utility urban space which can be used for residential purposes. The aim is to ensure the property is in close proximity to public transports, schools, malls, shops and more in order to make it a convenient location to live in. Marina One will be a 30 storey building that will consist of multiple blocks. Block A is dedicated to offices. One of the things that the developers have focused on is to create a space that replicates a small urban town. The other blocks will consist of rental spaces for commercial purposes and 1042 residential houses. People living here get the benefit of living at a convenient location in luxury.
One of the best things about the Marina One Residences is the design and architecture. The entire complex is designed by popular designer Christoph Ingenhoven who is known to create designs that are luxurious and eco friendly. One of the main things that the complex focuses on is the health and well being of the resident.
A few details of the Marina One plan are:
- Project Name: Marina One Residences
- Located At: 21 & 23 Marina Bay
- Construction Type: Integrated Development with Retail, Grade A Offices and Residential area
- Total Site area: Approximately 282,400 sqft
- Lease Tenure: 99-year leasehold starting from July 1st 2011
- Number of Districts: 1
- Overall Configuration: 1,042 luxury residential suites to be built across two 34-storey towers. Construction of two 30-storey prime towers containing Grade-A office spaces. A total area of 140,000 sqft of unique retail space to be built at podium level.
- Total Unit types (for released tower):
– 229 units each with a 1-bedroom plan (657 – 775 sq ft)
– 144 units each with a 2-bedroom plan (969 – 1,130 sq ft)
– 29 units each with a 2-bedroom + study plan (1,141 – 1,216 sq ft)
– 86 units each with a 3-bedroom plan (1,507– 1,539 sq ft)
– 29 units each with a 4-bedroom plan (2,045 – 2,250 sq ft)
– 4 units each with a Penthouse plan (6,491 – 8,568 sq ft)
- Total Car park slots: 1,505
- Expected year of completion: 2017
Marina One is a beautiful construction that redefines the standard of living in Singapore. The construction comprises of the exterior surrounded by greenery and mesmerizing architecture. The Lobby is massive and it consists of video games which the residents can play. When you move ahead, you will come across some of the beautiful and breathtaking Marina Bay area which lies beneath the floor. The only thing that separates your feet from the bay is a layer of sturdy transparent glass that you can step on. It gives you a feeling of walking on water.
Marina One has launched a show gallery which is something you must check out. It gives you an idea of the layout of the property which currently consists of four 1 bedroom flats on each floor. All the one bedroom flats are around 700 sq. feet in size. You can check out the preview of the property to understand the construction better.
Marina One is currently under construction and is scheduled to be ready for possession by 2017. One of the main aims of the developers was to ensure that the residents live a luxurious, convenient life. The property itself in constructed in a prime Singapore CBD area that keeps you at a stone's throw away from all the amenities you need. The construction will also include office spaces and commercial spaces which are offered on rent.
The Singapore Central Business District (CBD) is an area filled with massive steel and glass buildings. Most towers in this area reach for the sky. The people that work in this area appear like tiny ants walking on wide streets. It is easy for a person to feel small about themselves while standing at the Marina Financial Center.

Steve and Marianne Harrison are the first to admit they were an unlikely couple to migrate South. "We were a typical New York City couple whose extent of travels to the South was Florida," says Marianne. But after 25 years in the fashion industry, they were both lured by the promise of a simpler way of life owning a historic inn in Beaufort, South Carolina.
With their kids grown and gone, the two decided to dive into a whole new lifestyle. They got hooked the graciousness of the people and the deep vein of American history they tapped in the coastal town. "When I lost my enthusiasm for the fashion business, I found it again in this area," says Steve. Fueled by their newfound passion, the couple transformed The Rhett House Inn from a five-room inn into a four-diamond property with 17 rooms and luxury amenities.
Steve and Marianne Harrison, owners of Beaufort's magical Rhett House Inn, built a traditional cottage as their own modern retreat.

Emma Stone
Emma Stone in Rag & Bone Cut Off Shorts in Indigo
Emma Stone was pictured out for a walk while hand in hand with Andrew Garlfield. She wore a pair of Rag & Bone Cut Off Shorts in Indigo with a light wash denim shirt and nude flats.
I really love double denim looks for summer, especially with shorts, I'm just not so fond of this combination as the shorts are quite a bright blue, which I feel is a bit of a harsh contrast against the denim shirt. I do think Emma is gorgeous though and she wears Rag & Bone jeans so well! The first time I really fell in love with the brand was when I saw a pair of their skinny jeans on her! She makes them look gorgeous! Buy Rag & Bone online at Shopbop.com.

Emma Stone in Rag & Bone The Skinny in Warren
Emma Stone kept a smile on her face as she arrived at LAX airport in Los Angeles, California. She had to have security help her navigate her way through the paps and crowds, but she seemed to take it all in her stride.
Emma wore a pair of Rag & Bone The Skinny jeans in Warren with a long camel coloured coat and some black boots. I love the combination of the black top and bag as well with this look, it really pairs well together. I think Emma has great style and she is a celeb that fits Rag & Bone jeans perfectly! Buy these jeans online at Rag & Bone for $242.
