He's made a really compelling pitch video, so even if you don't think you're going to give money, at least go and watch it to see how cool my son is... :)
These are not advanced lectures, they were intended for a general audience, and Feynman does a great job inhabiting the world of fundamental physics. He's clearly one of the top experts, but explains in such a personal approachable style that you are right alongside him as he explores this world looking for answers, following in the footsteps of Newton and Einstein.
If you've never heard Feynman, at least dip into the first one if only to hear his deep, thick New York accent. He also is witty: he places the French Revolution in 1783, and says, "Accurate to three decimal places, not bad for a physicist!" It's disarmingly out of character for an intellectual, but Feynman is the real thing, discussing not just the basics of forces and particles, but the philosophical implications for scientists and all thinkers:
I converted the videos to pure audio and listened to them in my car, which meant I couldn't see what he was drawing on the blackboard, but it was enlightening nonetheless. Highly recommended: The Character of Physical Law.]]>
I enjoy these things, and I don't get paid for them. But if you want to help me out, here's how you can: my son Max is in his last semester at NYU film school, which means he and his friends are making significant short films. These films need funding. If you've liked something I've done for you in the Python world, how about tossing some money over to a film?
Max will be doing a film of his own this semester, but his Kickstarter isn't live yet. In the meantime, he's the cinematographer on his friend Jacob's film Go To Hell. So give a little money to Jacob, and in a month or so I'll hit you up again to give a lot of money to Max. :)]]>
The big new feature is support for the gevent, greenlet, and eventlet concurrency libraries. Previously, these libraries' behind-the-scenes stack swapping would confuse coverage.py. Now coverage adapts to give accurate coverage measurement. To enable it, use the "concurrency" setting to specify which library you are using.
Huge thanks to Peter Portante for getting the concurrency support started, and Joe Jevnik for the last final push.
Also new is that coverage.py will read its configuration from setup.cfg if there is no .coveragerc file. This lets you keep more of your project configuration in one place.
Lastly, the textual summary report now shows missing branches if you are using branch coverage.
One warning: I'm moving around lots of internals. People have a tendency to use what they need to to get their plugin or tool to work, so some of those third-party packages may now be broken. Let me know what you find.
Full details of other changes are in the CHANGES.txt file.]]>
So I made the kits and pushed them to PyPI. I used to not do that, because people would get the betas by accident. But pip now understands about pre-releases and real releases, and won't install an alpha version by default. Only if you explicitly use --pre will you get an alpha.
About 10 minutes after I pushed the kits, someone I was chatting with on IRC said, "Did you just release a new version of coverage?" Turns out his Travis build was failing.
He was using coveralls to report his coverage statistics, and it was failing. Turns out coveralls uses internals from coverage.py to do its work, and I've made big refactorings to the internals, so their code was broken. But how did the alpha get installed in the first place?
He was using tox, and it turns out that when tox installs dependencies, it defaults to using the --pre switch! Why? I don't know.
OK, I figured I would just hide the new version on PyPI. That way, if people wanted to try it, they could use "pip install coverage==4.0a1", and no one else would be bothered with it. Nope: pip will find the newer version even if it is hidden on PyPI. Why? I don't know.
In my opinion:
So now the kit is removed entirely from PyPI while I figure out a new approach. Some possibilities, none of them great:
Software is hard, yo.]]>
For a variety of reasons, it's hard to watch an hour-long video. I'd prefer to read the same content. But it isn't available textually. For my own talks, I produce full text as part of the preparation (for example, the Unicode sandwich talk).
I've even transcribed other peoples' PyCon talks: Stop Mocking, Start Testing, and Speedily Practical Large-Scale Tests. It was a good way to ensure I actually watched them!
People put slide decks up on SlideShare, but decks vary wildly in how well they contain the content. Some simply provide a backdrop, which is entertaining during a talk, but useless afterward.
Is there some way we can pool efforts to get more talks transcribed or summarized? Surely others would like to see it done? And there must be people eager to contribute in some way who could spend the time? Does something like this already exist?
I know the full talk, with the real speaker really speaking to me, is the best way to get their message. For example, Richard Feynman's series The Character of Physical Law just wouldn't be the same without his accent and delivery. But if the choice is reading a lengthy summary or not getting the message at all, I'll definitely take the summary.
Or maybe I'm an old codger stuck in text-world while all the younguns just want video?]]>
I can't tell you how proud this comic makes me. Ben has always been a naturally talented artist, but this is a quantum leap up in technique and execution for him. Also, it's a really sweet story.
I've been writing about Ben's progress as an artist here for a long time:
Now at 16, Ben continues to amaze me with what he can do. In the robot movie post, I said, "I've always tried to encourage their creative sides, and they haven't let me down." Still true.]]>
If the pull request is from a branch in the same repo, you can just check out the branch by name:
$ git checkout joe/proposed-feature
But you might not remember the name of the branch, or it might be in a different fork. Better is to be able to request the code by the pull request number.
The first technique I found was to modify the repo's .git/config file so that when you fetch code from the remote, it automatically pulls the pull request branches also. On GitHub, pull requests are at refspecs like "refs/pull/1234" (no, I don't really know what refspecs are, but I look forward to the day when I do...) Bert Belder wrote up a description of how to tweak your repo to automatically pull down all the pull request branches. You add this line to the [remote "origin"] section of your .git/config:
fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*
Now when you "git fetch origin", you'll get all the pull request branches, and you can simply check out the one you want with "git checkout pr/1234".
But this means having to edit your repo's .git/config file before you can get the pull request code. If you have many repos, you're always going to be finding the ones that haven't been tweaked yet.
A technique I liked better is on Corey Frang's gist, provided by Rico Sta. Cruz: Global .gitconfig aliases for pull request management. Here, you update your single ~/.gitconfig file to define a new command that will pull down a pull request branch when you need it:
copr = "!f() { git fetch -fu ${2:-origin} refs/pull/$1/head:pr/$1 &&
git checkout pr/$1; }; f"
(That should all be on one line, but I wanted it to be readable here.) This gives us a new command, "git copr" (for CheckOut Pull Request) that gets branches from pull requests:
$ git copr 1234 # gets and switches to pr/1234 from origin
$ git copr 789 upstream # gets and switches to pr/789 from upstream
This technique has the advantage that once you define the alias, it's available in any repo, and also, it both fetches the branch and switches you to it.
BTW: finding and collecting these kinds of shortcuts can be daunting, because if you don't understand every bit of them, then you're in cargo-cult territory. "This thing worked for someone else, and if I copy it here, then it will work for me!"
In a few of the aliases on these pages, I see that the commands end with "&& :". I asked about this in the #git IRC channel, and was told that it was pointless: "&&" joins two shell commands, and runs the second one if the first one succeeded, and ":" is a shell built-in that simply succeeds (it's the same as "true"). So what does "&& :" add to the command? Seemed like it was pointless; we were stumped.
Then I also asked why other aliases took the form they did. Our copr alias has this form:
"!f() { command1; command2; }; f"
The bang character escapes from git syntax to the shell. Then we define a shell function called f with two commands in it, then we call the function. Why define the function? Why not just define the alias to be the two commands?
More discussion and experimentation turned up the answer. The way git invokes the shell, the arguments to the alias are available as $1, $2, etc, but they are also appended to the command line. As an example, let's define three different git aliases, each of which uses two arguments:
ee1 = "!echo 2 is $2 stop; echo 1 is $1 stop"
ee2 = "!echo 2 is $2 stop; echo 1 is $1 stop && :"
ee3 = "!f() { echo 2 is $2 stop; echo 1 is $1 stop; }; f"
When we try these, the first does a bad thing, but the second and third are good:
$ git ee1 one two
1 is one stop
2 is two stop one two
$ git ee2 one two
1 is one stop
2 is two stop
$ git ee3 one two
1 is one stop
2 is two stop
The second one works because the ":" command eats up the extra arguments. The third one works because the eventual command run is "f one two", so the values are passed to the function. So the "&& :" wasn't pointless afterall, it was needed to make the arguments work properly.
From previous cargo-cult expeditions, my ~/.gitconfig has other aliases using a different form:
ee4 = !sh -c 'echo 1 is $1 stop && echo 2 is $2 stop'
ee5 = !sh -c 'echo 1 is $1 stop && echo 2 is $2 stop' -
These do this:
$ git ee4 one two
1 is two stop
2 is stop
$ git ee5 one two
1 is one stop
2 is two stop
(No, I have no idea why ee4 does what it does.) So we have three odd forms that all are designed to let you access arguments positionally, but not get confused by them:
cmd1 = "!command1 && command2 && :"
cmd2 = "!f() { command1; command2; }; f"
cmd3 = !sh -c 'command1 && command2' -
All of them work, I like the function-defining one best, it seems most programmery, and least shell-tricky. I'm sure there's something here I'm misunderstanding, or a subtlety I'm overlooking, but I've learned stuff today.]]>
Python has a handy way to iterate over all the elements of a sequence, such as a list:
for x in seq:
But if you've only learned a few basic things, or are coming from a language like C or Javascript, you might do it like this:
i = 0
while i < len(seq):
x = seq[i]
i += 1
(BTW, I did a talk at the PyCon before last all about iteration in Python, including these sorts of comparisons of techniques: Loop Like a Native.)
Once you learn about the range() builtin function, you know you can loop over the indexes of the sequence like this:
for i in range(len(seq)):
x = seq[i]
These two styles of loop are commonly seen. But when I saw this on Stackoverflow, I did a double-take:
i = 0
while i in range(len(seq)):
x = seq[i]
i += 1
This is truly creative! It's an amalgam of the two beginner loops we've already seen, and at first glance, looks like a syntax error.
In fact, this works in both Python 2 and Python 3. In Python 2, range() produces a list, and lists support the "in" operator for checking element membership. In Python 3, range() produces a range object which also supports "in".
So each time around the loop, a new range is constructed, and it's examined for the value of i. It works, although it's baroque and performs poorly in Python 2, being O(n2) instead of O(n).
People are creative! Just when I thought there's no other ways to loop over a list, a new technique arrives!]]>
So I made a chart:
The various teams internal to edX are responsible for reviewing pull requests in their areas of expertise, so this chart is organized by teams, with most-loaded at the top. The colors indicate the time since the pull request was opened. The bars are clickable, showing details of the pull requests in each bunch.
This was a fun project because of the new stuff I got to play with along the way. The pull request data is gathered by a Python program running on Heroku, using the GitHub API of course. The summary of the appropriate pull requests are stored in a JSON file. A GitHub webhook pings Heroku when a pull request changes, and the Python updates the JSON.
Then I used d3.js in the HTML page to retrieve the JSON, slice and dice it, and build an SVG chart. The clickable bars open to show HTML tables embedded with a foreignObject. This was complicated to get right, but drawing the tables with SVG would be painful, and drawing the bars with HTML would be painful. This let me use the best tool for each job.
D3.js is an impressive piece of work, but took some getting used to. Mike Bostock's writings helped explain what was going on. The key insight: d3 is not a charting library. It's a way to use data to create pages, of turning data into DOM nodes.
So far, the chart seems to have helped edX stay aware of how pull requests are moving. It hasn't made everything speedy, but at least we know where things are stalled, and it has encouraged teams to try to avoid being at the top. I'd like to add more to it, for example, other ways of sorting and grouping, and more information about the pull requests themselves.
The code is part of our repo-tools if you are interested.]]>

Whatever you do, don't get pregnant if your husband isn't on board—it's likely to lead to anger, arguments and even divorce. Start by discussing the issue. If your conversations confirm that your husband has no interest in parenthood, don't suppress your desire for a baby to stay together; growing resentment could quietly tear you apart. Instead, see a marriage therapist to continue the dialogue and figure out the best way to build a future you'll both be happy with.

The 2013 BMW M6 coupe (F13) press launch is underway in Spain and we've uploaded the newest official hi-res wallpaper images of the M6 coupe and convertible (F12) into our Official M6 Thread. If you noticed a slightly new look to the F13 M6 coupe, it's the new trunk spoiler that it now receives as standard equipment in order to improve aerodynamics.
Check out the full set inside.
If you're an M5 and manual transmission fan then this current F10 M5 generation will be your last chance to own the combination. BMW M's head of engineering, Albert Biermann let on this week to Insideline that there are no plans to fit the next generation M5 or M6 with a manual transmission. Manual transmission is currently offered as a no-cost option for the F10 M5 in North America (only) and will likely become an option for the F12/F13 M6 as well.
The reasoning is as expected … CONTINUED
The GruppeM Ram Air Intake System for the BMW F10 M5 has officially been released. The carbon fiber air intake system's dyno graph shows peak gains of +15 HP and +30 lb-ft torque over stock.
The on-again-off-again BMW supercar successor to the M1 is now rumored to be coming in 2016, according to Autobild. Why so long? Because the i8 electric hybrid sportscar launches in 2014 and BMW would like to give the i8 some time on the market without any potential sales cannibalization posed by a successor to the M1. We think it's unlikely that BMW will revive the M1 nameplate, but may instead choose a previously unused and higher identifier – perhaps the M10 (which was recently trademarked).
The market … CONTINUED
Someone at BMW M HQ in Garching has been gabbing and has let on to Bimmerfile that the next generation 2014 F80 M3 may be getting electric power steering instead of the hydraulic power steering that M cars have always been equipped with (even with the latest M5 and M5).
Porsche's new 911 991 is equipped with EPS which has been praised, which likely gives manufacturers such as BMW hope that a sporty EPS system can be developed for their most sporty cars – the … CONTINUED
The M3 CRT sounds off with its amazing sounding factory exhaust system with titanium mufflers, in this rare listen at the M3 CRT. Afterall, there were only 67 M3 CRTs made total, worldwide.
The F10 M5 has hit BMW's Spartanburg Performance Center in force. There are now at least 15 new M5s being prepped for duty at the BMW M School in Spartanburg!
Among this fleet is the very first Sakhir Orange F10 M5 we have seen. Sakhir Orange is a new color available for 2013 M5s. You can see photos of all the other available M5 colors in our photo threads compilation.
All the M School M5s will be equipped with M Carbon Ceramic Brakes, an option which is actually … CONTINUED
A couple of production level F10 M5 sedans have been spotted for the first time with M carbon ceramic brakes, which we previously announced as being delayed until the 2013 calendar year sometime.
The gold ceramic brakes look great paired with the Alpine White M5!
Here's a first real life look at the Frozen Blue Individual BMW M5 F10 M Performance Special Edition, which is currently on display at the Canary Wharf MotorExpo in London.
Photos and details inside.
Russia is developing quite a pattern of originating some flashy (yes, understatement) colored BMWs. In the past two years, we've witnessed a gold leaf wrapped X5 M and a green chrome F10 5 series originate from the country.
Someone has now decided that Monte Carlo Blue, the flashiest F10 M5 color currently available from the factory, is still not eye catching enough. Why bother fooling around with traditional metallic paint colors or the matte paint options that are all the rage these days when you can just … CONTINUED
The 2013 M6 Coupe (F13) is not on the market yet, but has already received an upgrade in the form of enhanced aerodynamics, now with a standard trunk lip spoiler. The trunk lip spoiler hasn't been seen on any photos or auto show debut cars, but here are the first photos.
The 2013 M6 coupe begins production next month (July) and will begin deliveries in September.
Here is a first look at the Kelleners Sport aero kit and exhaust system for the F10 M5. The cosmetic parts include a carbon fiber front spoiler lip, carbon fiber mirror covers, sideskirts, black rear bumper diffuser with carbon fiber fin, and carbon fiber trunk spoiler. Black 20″ Kelleners Hamburg wheels are fitted on the car.
For performance and sound, the Kelleners Sport full exhaust system with valve control has also been fitted. The valve system has been integrated in the rear silencer and can be opened … CONTINUED

Around 4 p.m. Sunday, a power outage put 5,400 AEP customers in the dark across portions of Elkhart and St. Joseph Counties in Indiana and Cass County Michigan.
Kim Sabrosky, a spokeswoman with AEP tells NewsCenter 16, a handful of line crews were spread across the area looking to pinpoint the cause.
They later traced the Elkhart County outages to a transformer issue and managed to restore power by late Sunday night.
As of 10:30 p.m., crews had not found the cause for the outages in St. Joseph County and did not have an estimate for when power would be restored.
At this hour, 450 customers are still without power in St. Joseph County.

When I was a kid, I had an imaginary cousin named Matene, whose name I obviously made up. A few months ago I loved Aubreana, and I was considering more made up names like Ambria and Jamesie. (Tbh I still kind of like Jamesie.)
not expecting, just collecting.
I was dead set on naming a son Riley David Cole. I have no idea why really, other than I liked David because of some guy on American Idol. I also loved the names Leah and Alexis for girls, and Kane, Kaiser, and Malakai "Kai," for boys.

Max Ophuls's final film, Lola Montès is at once a magnificent romantic melodrama, a meditation on the lurid fascination with celebrity, and a one-of-a-kind movie spectacle.
Before Kubrick made his mischief iconic in A Clockwork Orange, Malcolm McDowell made a hell of an impression as the insouciant Mick Travis, who, along with his school chums, trumps authority at every turn, finally emerging as a violent savior.
Mathieu Kassovitz took the film world by storm with La haine, a gritty, unsettling, and visually explosive look at the racial and cultural volatility in modern-day France, specifically the low-income banlieue districts on Paris's outskirts.
In the enthralling Blow Out, brilliantly crafted by Brian De Palma, John Travolta gives one of his greatest performances, as a movie sound-effects man who believes he has accidentally recorded a political assassination.
The 1992 presidential election was a triumph not only for Bill Clinton but also for the new breed of strategists who guided him to the White House—and changed the face of politics in the process.
Terrence Malick's visionary adaptation of James Jones's 1962 novel about the World War II battle for Guadalcanal is one of the most deeply philosophical films ever released by a major Hollywood studio, a thought-provoking meditation on man, nature, and violence.
In turn-of-the-century Sweden, four men and four women attempt to navigate the laws of attraction. During a weekend in the country, the women collude to force the men's hands in matters of the heart.
Adapting Ed McBain's detective novel King's Ransom, Kurosawa moves effortlessly from compelling race-against-time thriller to exacting social commentary, creating a diabolical treatise on contemporary Japanese society.
A timeless American idyll and a gritty evocation of turn-of-the-century labor, Terrence Malick's glorious period tragedy Days of Heaven features Oscar-winning cinematography by Nestor Almendros.
What seems at first to be a straightforward tale of two people—played by Oscar-winning actress Juliette Binoche and opera singer William Shimell—getting to know each other over the course of an afternoon gradually reveals itself as something richer, stranger, and trickier.
Badlands announced the arrival of a major talent: Terrence Malick. His impressionistic take on the notorious Charles Starkweather killing spree of the late 1950s uses a serial-killer narrative as a springboard for an oblique teenage romance.
Spare and unsentimental but deeply imbued with a heart-rending tenderness, The Kid with a Bike is an arresting work from the great Belgian directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, masters of the empathetic action film.
The Belgian filmmaking team of brothers Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne turned heads with Rosetta, an intense vérité drama that closely follows a poor young woman struggling to hold on to a job to support herself and her alcoholic mother.
This lush, Technicolor tragic romance from Luchino Visconti stars Alida Valli as a nineteenth-century Italian countess who, during the Austrian occupation of her country, puts her marriage and political principles on the line by engaging in a torrid affair with a dashing Austrian lieutenant.
Jean Cocteau's update of the Orpheus myth depicts a famous poet (Jean Marais), scorned by the Left Bank youth, and his love for both his wife, Eurydice (Marie Déa), and a mysterious princess (Maria Casarès).
An epic on the grandest possible scale, Visconti's opulent masterpiece stars Burt Lancaster as an aging prince watching his culture and fortune wane in the face of a new generation during the tumultuous years of Italy's Risorgimento.

Mark Collie In Time Lyrics
Last updated: 03/18/2014 03:59:31 AM
I can hear what you're thinkin'
All your doubts and fears
And if you look in my eyes in time you'll find,
The reason I'm here
And in time all things shall pass away
In time you may come back someday.
To live once more
Or die once more
But in time your time will be no more
You know your days are numbered
Count 'em one by one
Like notches in the handle of an outlaw's gun
You can outrun the devil if you try
But you will never outrun the hands of time
In time there'll surely come a day
In time all things shall pass away
In time you may come back some say
To live once more
Or die once more
But in time your time will be no more
I can hear what you're thinkin'
Thanks to Nikki for submitting In Time Lyrics.

The Punisher is an awesome movie and I never saw anything so perfect in my life...the timing was just right...........,.......also The Return of The Undertaker in the WWE,when Brock was still shocked about his return, this song just made things even more intresting,especiall the part that says "all your doubts and fear"..."but in time you'll find the reason i'm here"
In Time Review | Reviewer: Tony Yinsen | 5/24/12
A great song. Has strong message that you can "run" from your troubles, but never time; as in, at some point the time will come to face our troubles, and our fate. It also adds to that scene in "The Punisher". Definitely worth seeing, and Listening too
In Time Reviewed | Reviewer: Robby | 7/8/07
By the far the greatest song to ever be played in any Marvel theatrization of a comic hero. Definitely check out the Punisher if you haven't already, it's a must hear (and see).
mark Collie "in time" review | Reviewer: R.J. Lee | 10/15/04
I will say...it was quite weird when "Harry Heck" whipped out his guitar, and sang this song to "Frank Castle" in "The Punisher". Yeah. I've never seen anything quite like that. The song itself is kinda cool, though I"m not into the country genre...I'm more an Alice In Chains man myself, but this was a cool song. check out the Punisher movie, and hear the song for yourself:)

Key Biomechanical Insights For Treating Dance Injuries
Technique. Have the patient perform maximal active plantarflexion of the ankle. As you are at eye level with the patient's ankle, use a straightedge to look for an angular deviation between the distal sagittal third of the leg and the proximal midline of the foot just distal to the talar dome. This should include the dorsal talar/navicular/cuneiform surface but not the metatarsals.
Norms. In female dancers, the norm is 8 degrees or 5 degrees plantarflexed to the tibial line (ballet, modern, respectively). In male dancers, the norm is 3 degrees or 0 degrees plantarflexed versus the tibial line (ballet/modern).
Evaluating Ankle Dorsiflexion With The Knee Flexed
Dorsiflexion of the ankle with the knee flexed (DKF). We actually have DKF when we descend stairs, squat and run up bleacher steps if our calves fatigue. When a dancer has DKF, it is called a demi-plié. The demi-plié is the position from which a dancer (and basketball player) accelerates each leap and absorbs landing shock. Dancers with too little demi-plié may incur symptomatic anterior ankle impingements that are often accompanied by osteophytosis at the anterior ankle margin. Dancers with too much DKF can also suffer anterior impingement injuries as high DKF correlates with a weak or hypotonic soleus, the muscular delimiter of the demi-plié. Low DKF can also cause anterior impingement injury in the non-dancer so it is important to be able to measure it precisely.
DKF technique. The patient lies in a supine position. The examiner holds the sole at 90 degrees to the exam surface while assisting the patient in flexing the knee until reaching ankle end-range of motion. At this moment, the foot will be forced to plantarflex beyond the previously maintained position perpendicular with the exam surface.
Maintaining the patient's ankle end-range of motion, the examiner assists the patient in slightly extending the hip until the sole again is perpendicular with the exam surface. This is the measurement position. The examiner drops an imaginary plumb line, parallel to the exam surface, from the face of the patella down to the foot. Then he or she notes where the plumb line falls in relation to the foot (first MPJ, talonavicular joint, 2 inches distal to the tip of hallux, etc.).
DKF norms. In male dancers, the norm for DKF is from the first MPJ to 1/2 inch distal to the hallux tip. In female dancers, the norm for DKF is from the first MPJ to 1 inch distal to the hallux tip.
Key Pointers For Assessing The DKE Position
Dorsiflexion of the ankle with the knee extended (DKE). This is a measurement of gastroc tension or "calf flexibility." When calves are too tight, the patient may have resulting tensile injuries such as forced subtalar and midtarsal pronation, and Achilles tendinitis. Patients with calves that are too loose are susceptible to injuries from inadequate eccentric (decelerative) or concentric (accelerative) gastroc function. In addition, excessive DKE over-recruits the flexor hallucis longus (FHL) as an accessory ankle plantarflexor. The FHL is also responsible for medial stabilization of the ankle en pointe, and toggling between pointe and demi-pointe. FHL tendinitis is called the "dancer's tendinitis" due to this FHL multitasking in dancers.
Too much DKE also correlates with heel and leg impact problems like heel bruises and tibial or fibular stress fractures. A hyperflexible calf is like a bungee cord that is too long. The DKE technique uses no goniometer and allows clinicians to measure with more of a linear value rather than radial value. I define DKE as the minimal slope of the shoe necessary to enable subtalar neutral. Due to the overpowering mechanical advantage of the gastroc, if a patient has a negative 3/4-inch DKE, the foot will pronate in any shoe with a heel height less than 3/4 inch. Conversely, the gastroc will not reach full length/tension in shoes higher than a 3/4-inch slope. This sets the stage for eccentric injuries.

He also surprised me with a gorgeous orchid (see below) and a pasta roller. I have been DYING to make my own pasta and now I can can. I'm going to start experimenting this week!

Karrueche Tran is Chris Brown's "Woman Crush Wednesday," even though they just broke up, which makes it a little weird that he's crushing on her right now.
Then again, it's better than him literally crushing her.
Last night, the troubled and enigmatic R&B star posted a photo of his former side piece slash girlfriend to his Instagram page with the hashtag, "#WCW!"
Brown also shared a long message about soul mates, calling it "inspiring." The grammar and punctuation use are anything but, yet we do see Chris' point.
Chris and Karrueche's tumultuous, unpredictable and frequently on-and-off relationship recently hit the skids again, though the details are far from clear.
His camp says Chris dumped Karrueche because she's a fame whore leech who started taking advantage of him and even texting Drake behind his back.
Her story is a little different. To hear Kae tell it, Tran dumped Brown because he's a jealous, immature child who is focused on partying instead of his music.
Which side does the #WCW shout-out support?

I meant completely uninstall Virtual PC and XP Mode from your host system, this post tells you how. Before uninstalling, copy the XP Mode vhd file to a safe place. It's located in C:\Users\Your_Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines
After uninstalling, reboot and reinstall Virtual PC and XP Mode. Run XP Mode one time, shut it down. Rename the new XP Mode vhd (or move it to another location) and replace it with the one you backed up before uninstall.
IF everything works, backup XP Mode files as told in this thread.
Hi Kari,
Please help me.
I had the same problem as the OP - a technician changed something in the Integration Features (I guess he touched the Integration Features/Networking from Shared Networking NAT to Realtek PCIe bla bla) because it didnt acquire an IP from that intranet DHCP server, and from that moment I couldnt see anymore the HDD of Win7_host (although I played a lot with those Windows Virtual PC Settings/Integration Features/Enable at startup, drives etc)
Then I read this post Kari, where you said:
Before uninstalling, copy the XP Mode vhd file to a safe place. It's located in C:\Users\Your_Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines
After uninstalling, reboot and reinstall Virtual PC and XP Mode. Run XP Mode one time, shut it down. Rename the new XP Mode vhd (or move it to another location) and replace it with the one you backed up before uninstall.
Again, you said copy the XP Mode vhd file that is ONE FILE (not files aka not plural)
And then you said AGAIN and replace it with the one your words, THE ONE file NOT files .
So I did copy that 30GB vhd (that contained a ton of Oracle ERP DB and other important stuff) and then I uninstalled & re-Installed as you indicated but at the end, when I tried to use my old 30GB vhd file, an error window appeared:
[IMG]http://s19.**************/41izguixf/Cannotreuse_Old_VHDfile.png[/IMG] and the C:\Users\MyUserName\Virtual Machines\Windows XP Mode.vmcx file was gone.
Is it possible to start Xpmode and re-use and old Windows XP Mode.vhd ? (using just "that" one-file)

Dear Kari, I have to apologize to you!
I'm sorry, you were right.
Saving just ONE file (that big vhd) is sufficient ! (if you want to reinstall the whole VM & XPmode ensemble).
In my (stupid) case, after reinstalling, it didn't work because I moved somewhere else (instead of simply renaming..) the newly created "Windows XP Mode.vhd" AND "Windows XP Mode.vmc" files before bringing my old "Windows XP Mode.vhd" in their place; and without that newly created vmc (virtual settings file), of course it won't work
Now is OK (although "Integration Features" still don't work and I can't see the host disk but I'm glad is ok)
Thank you

Found method to re-install Integration Components
Before doing something drastic like deleting virtual machines due to missing Integration Components / Features, try the following.
In Microsoft TechNet Forum Integration features will not install after upgrade to XP mode virtual PC I found the following instructions to re-install Windows VPC Integration Components in a XP mode Virtual machine:
In the VIRTUAL machine:
1. Uninstall Virtual PC Components, if any.
2. Remove the device that is recognized from the device manager.
3. Rename the following 2 files:

Viral Protein Production After Dexamethasone, Wild-Type Reovirus, and Carfilzomib in Treating Patients With Multiple Myeloma
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
This pilot clinical trial studies the activity of dexamethasone, wild-type reovirus, and carfilzomib in patients with multiple myeloma and viral protein production following treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as dexamethasone and carfilzomib, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. A virus called wild-type reovirus may be able to kill cancer cells without damaging normal cells and seems to work best when given with chemotherapy. Giving wild-type reovirus with chemotherapy may be a more active treatment than chemotherapy alone.
Refractory Plasma Cell Myeloma
Drug: Dexamethasone
Drug: Carfilzomib
Biological: Wild-type Reovirus
Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Endpoint Classification: Safety Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|Pilot Trial Evaluating Viral Protein Production From the Combination of Reolysin and Carfilzomib in Multiple Myeloma
- Reovirus replication as measured by reovirus capsid protein production [ Time Frame: Day 1 of first course ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Reovirus replication as measured by reovirus capsid protein production [ Time Frame: Day 9 of first course ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Adverse events based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) criteria [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Tolerability (number and severity of toxicity incidents) of combination carfilzomib and wild-type reovirus assessed by CTCAE version 4 [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Frequency distributions and other descriptive measures will form the basis of the analysis of these variables.
- Number of patients who required dose modifications and/or dose delays in subsequent cycles [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Proportion of patients who go off treatment due to adverse reactions or refuse further treatment for lesser toxicities that inhibit their willingness to continue participation on the trial [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Number and percentage of subjects experiencing objective response [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Summary statistics will be computed for baseline biomarkers. The absolute and percent change from baseline will be calculated for each subsequent measurement. Summary statistics will be computed for each collection time point. The objective response rate will be analyzed by using a 95% confidence interval for the proportion responding at trial closure in the treated population.
- Clinical benefit endpoint described as that portion of patients experiencing complete response (CR), very good partial response (VGPR), or partial response (PR) [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The objective response rate will be analyzed by using a 95% confidence interval for the proportion responding at trial closure in the treated population.
- Duration of response [ Time Frame: Duration from first observation of partial response to the time of disease progression, up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]This time-to-event distribution will be evaluated using the methods of Kaplan and Meier, with a focus on graphical evaluation as well as early timepoint and median estimates of survival distributions.
- Progression free survival [ Time Frame: Duration from start of treatment to disease progression or death, regardless of cause of death, whichever comes first, up to 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]This time-to-event distribution will be evaluated using the methods of Kaplan and Meier, with a focus on graphical evaluation as well as early timepoint and median estimates of survival distributions.
- Time to progression [ Time Frame: Time from the start of the treatment until the criteria for disease progression are met, up to 4 weeks post treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]This time-to-event distribution will be evaluated using the methods of Kaplan and Meier, with a focus on graphical evaluation as well as early timepoint and median estimates of survival distributions.
- Immunologic correlative markers [ Time Frame: Up to 2 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Will descriptively summarize the continuous markers quantitatively. Patterns of change in the longitudinal data on these markers will be evaluated in this manner for each of the correlative outcomes of interest. Appropriate transformations of the various correlative markers will be used in the presence of skewed data distributions. Multiple comparison corrections will not be used for these secondary correlative analyses. Peripheral blood will be collected at pretreatment on day 1, day 2, and day 9, 15 and once during days 22-28 of cycle 1, and day 1 of cycle 2 and each successive cycle.

Correlative studies
Detailed Description:
I. Determine safety and tolerability of reolysin (wild-type reovirus), carfilzomib and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma.
II. Obtain evidence of reovirus protein production by immunohistochemical localization of reoviral capsid protein in myeloma cells from bone marrow biopsies obtained on cycle 1 day 9.
I. Obtain preliminary data on response as determined by International Myeloma Working Group criteria after protocol therapy.
II. Obtain pilot overall and progression free survival data for all treated patients.
III. Assess cytokine arrays of peripheral blood obtained on days 1, 2 and 9 to obtain exploratory data regarding inflammatory cytokine concentrations and their correlation with response.
IV. Cryopreserve marrow aspirates obtained cycle 1 day 1 and all subsequent marrow aspirates while on trial for future studies of genetic and epigenetic changes focused in part on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, autophagy and reovirus resistance studies.
Patients receive dexamethasone intravenously (IV), carfilzomib IV over 10 minutes, and wild-type reovirus IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 4 weeks and then every 6 months.

Lived-in Beauty Goes Glam at Mulberry
With wet, undone hair and loads of eyeliner, it could be expected that the inspiration would be grit and grunge for the Mulberry Spring 2014 beauty look. Instead, lead hairstylist Sam McKnight opted to point to lived-in and slept-in as his main adjectives for the hair and makeup, which looked gorgeous paired with the floral, feminine collection. Totally tousled strands were swept across models' faces in a deep side part after being doused in Frederic Fekkai Coiff Bouffant Lifting and Texturising Spray for body. As for the makeup, the emphasis was on eyeliner. Inky black framed models' eyes in a Twiggy-esque fashion, while face and lips were kept neutral.
