[font=Century Gothic]I read that Target is going to be releasing the new line of the Animated figures. However I just stopped by my local Target in the great state if RI and to my surprise, nothing. Even for fun I stopped by Toys R Us and Wal Mart and founf nothing new or exciting. What is going on? Do they not realize that the holiday season is right around the corner.[/font]
[font=Century Gothic]Does anyone know when exactly the new animated line is going to be hitting shelves or maybe has my local Target just not caught up with the rest of the world? Can anyone tell me?[/font]
The new animated figures should hit the shelves in January.Quote:

The figures at Target were like $4.15, so it may be a good time to stock up on OTC army builders. Mine had some Gam Guards, hopefully they'll be on sale a while longer.
[font=Century Gothic]I thought of the army builder idea soon when I heard that prices were going to be so low, but then I saw that the selection wasnt very extensive. Maybe Ill use this oppurtunity to branch out and start customizing figures.[/font]
[font=Century Gothic]I know they have claimed this holiday season is going to be slow, but still, how are collectors and fans supposed to get their hands on the new lines if they are not readily available? what Hasbro needs to realize is that by not varying up the selection in cases they are actually murdering the market for there toys. Now as a collector I realize that part of the thrill is to go out and try to find rare figures, but how discouraged do you get when the same three figures are warming the pegs at your local Wal-Mart or whatever? A formula needs to be devised. I really think in my own opinion that demmand would be greater if there was a chance you could get some of these figures and there wasnt this runnover of basic figures.[/font]
[font=Century Gothic]What does everyone think?[/font]
I think they made more than enough case assortmnet for the OTC. The problem is that they never make enough army builders. Stromtroopers always seem to be packed in evenly with new figures. They will always sell whether it is a kid who doesn't want the newest wave of background figures or a collector looking looking to bulk up a diorama. Instead we get commtech Han. Although I must say I see more of the generals and Leia Bespin than anything.
Getting rid of the pegwarmers is a good idea.However,no one is quite fond of them,hence why they are still hanging around :) I agree with you dindae,they should have doubled up on troopers.Always a fave with collectors and kids :D
Was at Target on Friday, they have NOTHING worth buying. The Star Wars figures are full to the pegs with Hoth Soldiers, even at $4.07 they weren't doing anything. If Hasbro had just done a better job on this figure...maybe it would be worth it, but alas.
Of course there were plenty of piles of those Darth Maul and Obi-Wan cups...nice (bowel) move by Hasbro. :p
Interesting to note that Star Wars was one of the few selections that were full. Marvel Legends had 6 figures between about 6-8 pegs...all ML4. Lord of the Rings were bone-dry, Batman's about all gone and there was only one Spider-Man on the pegs.
Man Target really needs a new stocking system.
Hmmm...I'm in Las Vegas. This past week I've seen:
ALL New Hope, Empire, and Jedi VOTC figs
Imperial Trooper
Gamorrean Guard

Lando Skiff
Chewbacca (Empire)

bolivian ram questions
Have a semi-mature ram that I've had for a couple of months. Initially thinking it was male. Recently went and got another, smaller ram hoping it was female. Now I think I have had it backwards and the original ram was female. I'm hoping to establish a pair. Older fish bullied new fish into hiding and stress colors. I would like the original ( my favorite) to pair up. I re-arranged the decorations somewhat, and added third ram ( also smaller than the original). I'm hoping the original is female, and will 'pick' one of these two males to pair with. I will return one of the supposed males to the LFS if she does. In the meantime the original fish hates them both ( has only been a couple of days though), and is chasing them non-stop, but not inflicting any physical damage...so far.
I was hoping someone could tell me if I'm right in the sexing of them, and also how long should I give them before I put the more immature fish out of their misery and take them back to the LFS. One is currently hiding in one corner of the tank, and the other in the other corner. Meanwhile the largest he/she fish has all the remaining tank :(

The largest fish in the first picture is the original ( and favorite) fish. The other two are the additions that are being harassed. I suspect the first is female, and the other two are immature males. Anyone with more experience that me comment on this please.

Park Assistant.
The Park Assistant makes it easier for you to find a suitable parking space and actively helps you park.
The Park Assistant makes parallel parking easier. Whether activated or not, the system measures potential spaces while driving past at a low speed (below 35 km/h) and at a maximum distance of 1.5 m from the row of parked cars. When a large enough gap has been found, the driver turns on the indicator and the Park Assistant takes over the steering, while the driver is responsible for selecting the correct gear, as well as pressing the accelerator and brakes. The system also gives instructions in the Control Display and additional acoustic signals. So the driver can stay relaxed and enjoy greater safety while parking.

| Topic: Clash of Haq and Batil
Posted: 25 April 2005 at 4:42am
The clash between Islam (Haq) and Bati (man-made dogmas of corrupted religions, secularism, Capitalism, Zionism, etc.) is nothing new. There has always a struggle between Haq and Batil (falsehood)- whether it was the clash between the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and Quraish, Musa (as) with Firaun, or Muslim Khalifah State and the Christian Crusaders.
In fact, the struggle against freedom of ownership is quite old. The source of contention between Shuayb (as) and the people of Aiyka (the people who used to worship tree Aiyka) was that he told them to abandon the religion of their forefathers and to conform to the Shariah of Allah, when engaging in business They said - OShuayb! Does your way of Salah commands you that we give up what our fathers used to worship, or that we give up doing what we like with our possessions Holy Quran 11:87
Therefore, as Muslims we should recognize that our struggle against the West, the US or Israel is the same struggle taken by all the prophets. May Allah help us to speak the truth for the sake of Allah alone.
Know your enemy!
No time to waste. Act now!
Tomorrow it will be too late

Well talking with the east coast developer about his
deployment process, I now can say the the dharma
transmission is complete, I now know that he should have
done that a long time ago! Better later than never I
suppose. At least his process is documented now. Why does
M$ insist on hiding key aspects of a process in options,
tab bars, and menu drop-downs? There's no logical flow to
it, you just have to 'know' where all these things are.
Anyway. The development team is making a shift from CVS to PVCS, our company standard now. Unfortunately, the powers that be didn't consider that a lot of the developers on the web team use Linux -- which PVCS is in the process of making available for linux developers, I think the PVCS group is feeding us their alpha versions. But I actually had a chance to go back to my Linux roots and play in console land at work. All I can say is ahhhhh.... Give me more, I want more!
Ilan, thanks for the tip, I was really hoping for some activeX help tho, I know that I at least have some chance of success with that. That should at least give you some indication of how fargone my lovelife is. ;) I mean, what am I doing working with this doomed technology? Actually, I won't have to work with it too much longer, this is purely for maintenance, most of our apps already run on unix systems, and we're using JSP, which I kinda like.

Times bring change Constant spinning. Up, down, Off, on, 1, 0.
Every action the beginning, of a new thought every thought the beginning, of a new action.
I influence you, you influence me, separate from our actions, yet one with them.
a toast to new thought. a round for the thought that got us here.
it seems strange to think that time heals. What exactly is it healing? Is it a balm of sorts? Or are we just forgetting, with enough events and people interspersed in between the bad time and the now time, that the bad doesn't seem so bad anymore?
How do we learn? Preventing the bad from happenning again, requires remembering the bad, reliving it, daily, like a pill. There ways of living in which we don't have to concern ourselves with remembering evils done, but simply live an existance where water rolls down stream, and trees grow straight and tall, and the sun rises and sets.
Here there is no learning, it is doing, breathing, coding, building, but learning happens anyway. And the balm of time feels like icy-hot, and smiles become a treasure.
these are times to live and these are places to begin never forgetting, never remembering. Be.

Cutimed Sorbact by BSN-Jobst is an innovative advanced wound dressing for infected wounds that uses the basic physical principle of hydrophobic interaction. Hydrophobic (water repellent) particles accumulate in an aqueous environment and are held together by the forces of surrounding water molecules. Wound bacteria are irreversibly bound to the dressing when they come into contact with Cutimed Sorbact's hydrophobic dressing fibers in the moist wound environment.
Since no chemical agents, such as local antibiotics or antiseptic products are used, there is little risk.
Effective Against MRSA and VRE
Fighting multi-resistant bacteria has become increasingly important in wound treatment and hospital management. The Sorbact method is even effective against MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staph. aureus) and VRE (vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus) as their resistance against antibiotics does not change their hydrophobic properties nor their abiity to bind to Cutimed Sorbact.
Advantages over other antimicrobial approaches:
--No Risk of Allergies: highly skin compatible
--No Contraindications: products can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding and on children
--No Cytotoxicity: no chemically active substances are released into the wound that might impair the healing process
--No Promotion of Bacterial Endotoxin Release: bacteria are not destroyed, preventing endotoxin release, and supporting natural wound healing
--No Development of Bacterial or Fungal Resistance: since no antiseptics or antibiotics are used, there is no resistance development
Works Well With Other Dressing:
Depending on the degree of exudate, Cutimed® Sorbact® may be used with amorphous hydrogels as well as secondary dressings, including:
Indications for Use:
Cutimed Sorbact can be used for all types of contaminated, colonised or infected exuding wounds, regardless of their etiology, such as:
Instructions for Use:
1. Clean the wound as usual. If desired, gently press a Cutimed® Sorbact® round swab against the moist wound surface to remove superficial microbial contamination.
2. Direct wound contact is a prerequisite for the effective binding of microorganisms. Always apply the dressings in a way that ensures direct contact with the wound surface.
3. In deep or cavity wounds, apply Cutimed® Sorbact® swabs or ribbon gauzes and leave a part of the dressing sticking out of the wound so it can easily be removed. if required, cover with an absorbent Cutimed® Sorbact® dressing pad. In superficial wounds, apply a Cutimed® Sorbact® dressing pad. In superficial wounds, apply a Cutimed® Sorbact® swab or dressing pad. Apply the dressing pad to the wound green side down.
4. Depending on the amount of wound exudate, Cutimed® Sorbact® swabs, ribbon gauzes, and round swabs can be combined with all types of hydroactive secondary dressings such as foams or alginates.
Do not combine Cutimed Sorbact with ointments or creams.
5. If required, use a bandage or tape for fixation.
6. When the wound is clean and shows signs of healing, it is recommended to switch to other types of modern dressings (e.g. for moist wound management).
A unique mode of action to bind and inactivate wound bacteria and fungi by hydrophobic interaction without using any antiseptic or antibiotic agents. It is based on the binding of hydrophobic structures on bacterial cell surfaces to the strongly hydrophobic coating of Cutimed Sorbact fabric.
What is hydrophobic interaction?
Hydrophobic interaction is a basic physical principle: When two hydrophobic (= water repellent) particles become in contact in an aqueous environment, they will bind to each other with help from the surrounding water molecules which hold them together.
Why do microorganisms have hydrophobic structures, and what is their natural purpose?
Cell surface hydrophobicity is one of the microorganism's natural prerequisites to take in food, to bind to surfaces or to each other e.g. for exchange of genetic information. The adherence of bacteria to tissue cells by hydrophobic interaction is the first step of infection.
What is the benefit of the Sorbact method?
Cutimed Sorbact does not release any chemically active substances into the wound as e.g. silver dressings or other common antiseptics do. Therefore potential risks like bacterial resistance or cytotoxicity can be ruled out completely. Common bactericidal antiseptics destroy bacterial cells which can promote bacterial endotoxin release. By simply binding the microorganisms Cutimed Sorbact eliminates this risk.
All Cutimed Sorbact dressings can be used without hesitation during pregnancy or breastfeeding as well as in infants.
What gives Cutimed Sorbact its strongly hydrophobic properties?
The fabric of Cutimed Sorbact is coated with the derivative of a natural fatty acid (DACC, dialcyl carbamoyl chloride). Its long alkyl groups make for strong hydrophobicity and therefore bacteria binding properties of Cutimed Sorbact dressings.
Does Cutimed Sorbact release any substances into the wound?
The special bacteria binding coating is firmly bound to the fabric fibres and will not be released into the wound. Cutimed Sorbact does not use any active substances to achieve microbial balance in the wound but works by a purely physical method.
What kind of fabric is Cutimed Sorbact made of?
Acetate fabric except for the ribbon gauze which is made of cotton for higher conformability and easier application in deep wounds. The dressing pad contains a soft absorbent core made from polyester and viscose.
It is a smooth fine meshed material which reduces the risk of tissue ingrowth and of sticking to the wound.
Can Cutimed Sorbact be re-sterilised by steam?
No, re-sterilisation is not recommended.
What is the shelf life of Cutimed Sorbact?
Shelf life is 5 years for the absorbent pads, swabs and ribbon gauzes and 3 years for the Cutimed Sorbact gel dressings.
What are the indications for Cutimed Sorbact?
Unclean, colonised or infected wounds regardless of aetiology, e.g. chronic wounds (diabetic foot ulcers, leg ulcers, pressure sores), post-operative dehisced wounds, traumatic wounds, or wounds after excision of fistulae or abscesses.
Cutimed Sorbact is also effective in dermal fungal infections.
In dry or low exuding wounds, Cutimed Sorbact gel is recommended to provide the necessary moisture needed for the bacteria binding effect and to avoid any potential of sticking to the wound.
Are there any contraindications?
There are no known contraindications for Cutimed Sorbact absorbent pads, swabs or ribbon gauzes.
Cutimed Sorbact gel should not be used in case of known sensitivity to propylene glycol. In these cases it is recommended to use Cutimed Sorbact swabs in combination with Cutimed Gel which does not contain propylene glycol.
All products can be used without hesitation during pregnancy and breastfeeding as well as on children.
When should Cutimed Sorbact be used?
Cutimed Sorbact and Cutimed Sorbact gel can be used in any wound where the primary goal is to remove micro-organisms (bacteria or fungi) in order to activate or support the natural wound healing process. This also includes preventive antiseptic treatment of wounds at risk of infection (e.g. in traumatic wounds).
Why is it important to decrease the number of bacteria in a non-healing wound?
The healing process slows down or stops in critically colonised or infected wounds. By reducing the microbial load Cutimed Sorbact also reduces odour, exudate level, wound pain, and the risk of transmission of bacteria in the environment.
Which are common wound bacteria that can be found in infected wounds?
Common examples are Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, haemolytic Streptococci, Klebsiella, Citrobacter, Morganella.
Which kind of microorganisms bind to Cutimed Sorbact?
Cutimed Sorbact is effective against all common wound pathogens: gram positive (e.g. Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Clostridium) and gram negative bacteria (e.g. Pseudomonas, E. coli, Enterobacter) as well as fungi (e.g. Candida albicans) [Ljungh, Wadstr_m; Microbiol. Immunol. 39 (10), 1995, 753-57].
This includes antibiotic resistant bacteria like MRSA or VRE as their resistance does not change their binding to Cutimed Sorbact.
Can microorganisms overcome the binding to Cutimed Sorbact?
No, the binding is irreversible in a moist wound environment.
Can the microorganisms continue to grow when bound to Cutimed Sorbact?
No, bound microorganisms are inactivated and do not replicate. When bound to a surface it is the microorganisms' natural behaviour to slow down their metabolism. Consequently, the formation and emission of bacterial toxins are also slowed down or stopped.
Does the microbial binding of Cutimed Sorbact reach a saturation point?
A saturation point was not reached in an in-vitro investigation by Ljungh et al. [JWC 15 (4), 2006, 175-80]. A binding capacity of up to one hundred million bacteria per square cm dressing was determined. This number exceeds the bacterial load that you would find in an infected wound.
What about microorganisms located in the pus or debris of the wound?
Debris and pus also have hydrophobic properties and bind to Cutimed Sorbact as well as the microorganisms.
How long does it take the microorganisms to bind to the dressings?
An in-vitro test by Ljungh et al. [JWC 15 (4), 2006, 175-80] showed that binding takes place rapidly, i.e. within 30 seconds. When measured after 2 hours, Cutimed Sorbact continuously bound more microorganisms.
Is Cutimed Sorbact effective in the treatment of MRSA?
Strains of MRSA (methicilin resistant Staphylococcus aureus) express cell surface hydrophobicity just as the non-resistant bacteria do and therefore also bind to Cutimed Sorbact. The same applies to VRE (vancomycin resistant Enterococcus).
Can bacteria or fungi develop resistance against Cutimed Sorbact?
The Sorbact method is based on hydrophobic interaction. This basic physical principle is vital for microorganisms, e.g. for intake of food, exchange of genetic information, or adherence to tissue cells in the infective process. Development of resistance against hydrophobic interaction would be self-destructive for microorganisms.
How is Cutimed Sorbact applied to the wound?
Cutimed Sorbact and Cutimed Sorbact gel must have direct contact with the wound bed. Superficial wounds should be dressed with swabs or absorbent dressing pads.
Deep or cavity wounds should be packed with round swabs, ribbon gauze or swabs (depending on the wound size) before covering with a dressing pad to ensure direct contact of the dressing to the wound.
Are there any recommendations of use for Cutimed Sorbact?
Moist wound conditions are essential to ensure the efficacy of Cutimed Sorbact and to avoid potential sticking to the wound. In dry or low exuding wounds it is recommended to use Cutimed Sorbact gel dressings.
No ointments or creams should be used in combination as fatty substances will interfere with the dressings' bacteria-binding properties.
How often do you have to change the dressing?
The frequency of dressing changes depends on the exudate level and the degree of wound contamination. It is recommended to change the dressing every 1 to 3 days. In wounds that show signs of clinical infection, a more frequent wound inspection is advisable. In these cases, an appropriate systemic treatment should be considered.
Can Cutimed Sorbact be cut to size?
It is not recommended to cut the dressings as small fibres might shed and remain in the wound.
How long should Cutimed Sorbact be used?
Until the wound is clean and there is no risk of further colonisation. When microbial balance is achieved it is recommended to change to other suitable wound dressings for the healing phase e.g. moist wound healing products.
Is Cutimed Sorbact compatible with secondary dressings e.g. foam dressings or alginates?
Cutimed Sorbact swabs and ribbon gauzes are very compatible with hydroactive dressings, e.g. to ensure a moist wound environment, as long as Cutimed Sorbact has direct contact with the wound bed and the secondary dressing does not contain any fatty substances (e.g. paraffin, ointments or creams).
Can Cutimed Sorbact be applied on top of another dressing?
There are no known contraindications for Cutimed Sorbact absorbent pads, swabs or ribbon gauzes.
To achieve an bacteria-binding effect in the wound, Cutimed Sorbact must have direct contact with the wound bed. Therefore it must be applied as the primary dressing and never as a secondary dressing.
Can Cutimed Sorbact be used while the patient is treated with systemic antibiotics?
Certainly, there is no interaction between systemic antibiotic therapy and local bacteria-binding treatment with Cutimed Sorbact.

Pros: Soundstage, resolution, imaging, isolation
Cons: Rigid cables, Very exclusive process to obtain, Expensive, Sensitive
FitEar has gained a great amount of respect these days, thanks to the venerable FitEar To Go! 334 UIEM. After having owned a TG! 334 I decided to take the plunge into my first custom, the FitEar MH335DW.
The first thing I have to mention is the whole process in obtaining these customs. FitEar is a very exclusive company, and apparently there are only two places where you can have impressions taken from a FitEar-authorized audiologist, their offices in Tokyo, Japan, and Jaben. I was lucky to have been able to get in touch with FitEar directly, months in advance, and secure a nice time to visit their office to get my impressions done. One week later and I drop by again to pick up my brand new FitEar MH335DW Custom In-Ear Monitors.
Of course you're not here for that story, so I'll cut that short and here's my review:
One of the things that you'll notice at first, using the FitEar MH335DWs, is the resolution of the CIEM. It isn't noticeable the first time using them, but after for some time it just dawns on me how much of a voyage I'm going through with my music because of them. Every time I use a FitEar IEM its always a journey of rediscovery of my music. I can't help but listen to the details presented in my music because of them. The soundstage it presents is enveloping, reminding me much of my Sennheiser HD800s (with none of the sibilance). The 3D-ness of the soundstage really brings you into this sense of losing yourself in your music. Listening to tracks like Mary Stalling's "Sunny", Amber Rubarth's "Strive", and even Rage Against the Machine's "Take The Power Back" really show how wide the soundstage of these CIEMs are, and how enveloping the sound is. The mids remain forward, but are more laid-back than the TG! 334s. All in all I can say that the MH335DWs are more transparent than the 334s, but still having a bit of "musical flavor" to make one very happy with one's music.
Another thing people would note is the fact that the "DW" in the name of the CIEM stands for "Double Woofer". Many people (at least of those whom I'd spoken to about these CIEMs) think that this means there's more bass response with aforementioned CIEMs, but that's not really the case. There's a little more bass bump on them than the TG! 334s but the bass is now more controlled on the 335s. One of my friends who owns a TG! 334 also noted that the 000 cables seemed to add a bit of bloat to the bass of the 334s, but with the control of the 335s this isn't the case, making the 000s a no-brainer (albeit expensive) upgrade from the 001 cables the 335s come with. While we're talking about bass, that same friend who has the TG! 334s made me try an "Silicon Sound System Bass Test" on his iBasso HDP-R10. On low gain and at a volume of 200, the MH335DW was able to image (without raising the volume further) bass response from 360 cycles to 10 cycles in one go.
Also as my first pair of CIEMs, the first time I put them in made me notice how "tight" they felt, but not the tight that made me uncomfortable (I was actually waiting for the discomfort, but found none). Isolation was very good, with only minimal noise actually bleeding out and going in. The build quality is very top-notch, as well. Though one thing that people will notice is, just like the TG! 334, the MH335DW is very very sensitive. I've used these with several DAPs and setups since after getting them and I've heard hiss on some of them (The RSA Intruder [almost none], The ALO International [minimal], The Altmann Tera Player [minimal], Continental V3 [heavy hiss]), but on others like the RWAK100 and the headphone out on my MacBook Pro, there's no hiss at all.
I guess my final say has to be this:
This is an endgame CIEM for me, not my last one but I think its a great "final point" in someone's audiophile journey. Its very hard to say if there will be anything that will challenge this, but I'm planning to pick up more CIEMs now, as I've finally entered this stage in my audiophile life, and compare them to this amazing CIEM. I'll say this isn't a "bang-for-buck" CIEM but if you can shell out the cash, time, and voyage to get them done, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
I love my FitEar MH335DWs, and I look forward to rediscovering more of my music with them.

Picked up Bossk Mugg today in Northridge. Just had 1, and a Biggs, but seemed to far away, especially in the rain to stash him. Liking the 8.99 price tag too. Figure selection was sparse.
can't stand MM. And they're making me into one without my permission.
I wanted to post this sooner, but after i got off from my graveyard and went on a run yesterday, i hit the sack. Anyway yesterday am, picked up a stash of wave 5 Han, ben, and jawa at Porter Rch Walmart. Thx to anton for that one. Nothin else really special there, had some SW tac on clearance and some IJ figs, all pegwarmers. When i went to pick up the stash, i checked the PR TRU and they had 2 of the 3 new comic packs (ki-adi/hett and wedge/wolfguy), but i stashed them for anton & he got there so fast i ended up meeting up with him. There was a Vos/Faie pack left too. Anyway they had a lot of the later wave SL including ARCs and 501st -that whole mess. They had 4 BFII clone packs and 2 Droid packs - don't know how many are left now as Anton said he told a friend who was lookin for those. This was as of 11:30ish yesterday. Oh yeah, tf fans -they had animated Swindle and blurr. Love the colors on Blurr. Hope this helps.
Anyone seen "Fanboys"? It premiered yesterday. I will probably go to see it tomorrow, but would like to hear if it's worth it from a fan's POV.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
STARKVILLE – For anyone who missed it last year, Anthony Hickey gave an encore performance.
Just as he did in Baton Rouge last February, the LSU point guard hit a last-second shot to beat Mississippi State, 69-68, at Humphrey Coliseum on Saturday. And just like last time, MSU (7-13, 2-6 SEC) saw a 17-point first-half lead evaporate.
"It just felt like a fairy tale," MSU center Gavin Ware said. "Coach was telling us, we worked so hard in practice and in the first half, and in the second half for us to give it away is unacceptable."
It was MSU's sixth consecutive loss and second straight heartbreaker – it fell to Texas A&M in overtime on Wednesday.
Yet it seemed the streak would end, even after the Tigers (12-7, 3-5) went on a 13-1 run to tie the game at 60-60 with 3 minutes, 13 seconds left. MSU scored the next six points and was at the free throw line with a chance to extend the lead.
But Craig Sword missed the two free throws with 1:29 to go, and more mistakes down the stretch doomed MSU. Fred Thomas was called for an offensive foul, Colin Borchert turned it over, and Hickey scored his team's final seven points.
Deja vu
MSU took a 68-67 lead on Trivante Bloodman's layup with 7.9 seconds left, but Hickey went coast-to-coast and dropped in a floater with 1.5 to go.
Last season, Hickey hit a shot with 1.4 seconds left to beat MSU in overtime.
Hickey, who finished with 12 points, said MSU's defense "flattened out" on his winning basket. "If they would have sucked in, I would have made the pass," he said.
MSU was left to bemoan missing 10 of its last 13 free throws. It made 8 of 20 in the second half and 13 of 27 for the game.
"It was the factor," first-year MSU coach Rick Ray said.
MSU opened up a 17-point lead in the first half and had a 40-26 edge at the break, its largest halftime lead in SEC play this season. But LSU, which shot 27.3 percent in the first half, warmed up and hit 53.3 percent in the second.
It was similar to what happened against Texas A&M, when MSU played so well early only to see things fall apart in the second half. One could blame a thin roster or inexperience, but Ware, who's a freshman, doesn't want to hear excuses.
"We're already experienced enough to know how to handle the ball, step to the line and make free throw shots. It's just clutch time," said Ware, who led State with 14 points and seven rebounds.
Bloodman had 12 points, and three other Bulldogs scored in double digits.
Johnny O'Bryant scored 12 points and had 12 rebounds for LSU after a slow start.

Most of the materials you submit for the evaluation of your application to a graduate program are objective and quantitative: grade-point average, Graduate Record Exam scores, class standing, and so forth. Letters of recommendation are the important exception; they should mention all your positive qualities not revealed by objective data such as GRE scores. A substantive letter from an informed referee can often be very persuasive to graduate admissions committees, especially in "borderline" admissions decisions.
Letters of recommendation may touch on the following points of potential interest to graduate admissions committees:
Letters of recommendation play an especially important role if there is some anomalous or seemingly contradictory aspect of your application. For example, consider a student whose financial or family problems had an adverse impact on academic performance during a particular year. A letter- writer can offer an explanation that prevents this from being held against the student.
Most schools ask you to provide three letters of recommendation. Naturally, you should get letters from faculty who know you best. A bland or neutral letter, from somebody who knows you only as a name on a class roll, can hurt more than it helps.
Good prospects for good letters are your advisor and those faculty teaching the smaller, intensive courses required of all majors such as Statistics and Research Methods (your grades in which graduate schools review especially carefully).
Other helpful letters could be provided by faculty with whom you have done Directed Research, those from whom you have taken several courses, or faculty with whom you have an affinity and who know you well. Ideally, your referees (letter-writers) are your advocates for admission. However, their advocacy can be only as effective as their knowledge about you.
The single best thing you can do, to get a good letter of recommendation--particularly if a teacher does not have a long acquaintance with you--is to provide your letter writer with useful information. Here is the type of information letter writers often find helpful:

After some failed attempts, striking miners at Lonmin's (LNMIY) Markana mines accepted a 22% pay hike and agreed to return to work later this week. The deal paves the way to the end of six-weeks of mining unrest that rattled the country and investors, Reuters' Mish Molakeng reports.
The violent nature of the strikes and their spread to other mines had spooked investors, who said the country's political risk could rise in the near-term. But sentiment was notably improving. Lonmin shares listed in the U.S. rose 5% to $11.24. The MSCI South Africa Index Fund (EZA) rose 1.7% to $68.28.

My last blog post pondered what was needed to share objects between "platforms" (ie .NET, C, Python, C++/std, C++/Qt and so on). This time, I'll be thinking out loud about potential systems that we could use in free software land. It'll be long, humour me. I promise I won't do it again ;)
I think there are basically 3 different types that stand a chance of being accepted. I'm going to exclude CORBA from this list on the grounds that it has already have a good attempt at the market, and failed to make a noticeable impact. So:
The first type is some derivative of COM
COM has been endlessly imitated throughout the years - because its core is so simple, it's easy to duplicate. For instance, Mozilla uses XPCOM, which is a simpler, slightly cleaner variant (but is designed for internal usage only rather than operating system wide usage). From the XPLC web site, I'd guess that's similar to COM also. The basic features of a COM style system are that you pass around arrays of function pointers (an interface), and each object must expose at least one standard interface, typically similar to IUnknown (XPCOM uses nsISupports).
I don't think a COM derivative is right for us. In order to be truly useful especially for performing language bindings many things must be built on top, like for instance a variants API. Because all this must fit in the basic framework of cascaded function tables, it's difficult to get a natural API. Microsoft themselves are leaving COM behind in favour of .NET - it would be foolish to head in a direction the dominant technology provider is leaving. COM systems often require free floating external magic, for instance a registry somewhere. Getting people to agree to depend on this would probably be difficult - the "what's in it for me?" factor gets in the way. While COM would work, it'd not the best we can do. There is also no widely deployed implementation available - having working code on peoples systems is a great boon. A COM style system does have the big advantage of being a known quantity, and at least to most politically acceptable if not technically so.
The second type of system is a common language runtime
.NET provides a CLR and CTS (common type system). As far as I know, .NET is the first attempt to produce a truly generic compiled ABI - traditionally they have always been designed for a particular language.
A quick review - .NET allows language interop not through making languages "skins" of C# as some have cynically suggested, but by providing a unified binary format and type system. Managed C++ extends C++ for instance, but it's still possible to compile the entirety of Microsoft Word with it. Some people seem to think that if a language has a form that can be compiled to MSIL it must be "crippled" - in fact this is no more the case than a language being crippled because at some point it must be translated into x86 opcodes.
The "crippled" accusations normally arise because people see that in order to share objects with other .NET languages they must conform to the common type system. This much is obvious - only C++ supports multiple inheritance so an API that makes use of this feature cannot be used from a language that does not support it. That doesn't mean you can't use multiple inheritance in .NET, it just means that objects you create using it will only be usable by other Managed C++ programs.
Clearly, in order to share code you must have a common ground, this was covered in my previous posts. The .NET CTS is an extremely rich common ground, and therefore .NET APIs can be very expressive. Because the .NET class hierarchy is available to all .NET langauges that understand the CTS, it's possible to write an API in say Python that returns an XML document usable from C#, as long as they use the common ground provided by that shared class library. You're free to write and use APIs that work in terms of PyXML of course, but don't expect to be able to export that to other languages. Sharing code between platforms is always going involve a set of compromises, but this one is unusually good.
The approach .NET takes to allowing code interop is technically elegant, and makes the most sense. Creating a rich shared ABI, object model, a strong introspection framework for interpreters and also providing a shared class library is probably the ideal way to enable code sharing at the technical level.
We now hit a problem
Creating all this infrastructure takes a huge amount of effort. It's taken Microsoft years to produce .NET - so far there is no equivalent being produced by the open source community. No, Parrot is not it - even assuming they overcame the technical problems with some see with their designs, it still only provides one part of the puzzle, namely a VM and new opcode/binary format. As far as I know, Parrot does not provide a shared object model, type system, and it most certainly does not provide a shared class library. Parrot is not specified anywhere, it's magic, - by contrast, the core of .NET is specified in ISO standards.
It could be done of course, by a team sufficiently dedicated. But, what you'd end up with would simply be something very much like .NET but incompatible - where is the logic in that? It makes more sense then to clone .NET exactly, and remain compatible with Windows - something we need anyway if we are to run many of the apps of the future. For this of course we have Mono, and a very important project it is even if you really don't like .NET at all. It's the Wine of the year 2010.
Mono, of course, has understandable political problems. Remaining compatible with .NET has a tangible cost, both technically and socially. It not only causes wierd hacks and warts like using the PE format for binaries instead of the more common on Linux (and somewhat superior, imho) ELF format, but socially it places control of the shared platform in the hands of a sworn enemy of not only Linux but the entire free software movement.
It's not surprising that people question the wisdom of writing free software for Linux on this framework. Don't get me wrong - patents do not enter into my argument here - rather, I'm more concerned about the cost of having Microsoft dictate the design of the framework and the statistical difficulty of "forking" it - we need Mono to be compatible with MS.NET for the apps, so we cannot simultaneously take it in another direction if we disagree with what Microsoft are doing.
Is there are 3rd alternative?
Of course there is. It's not perfect, far from it. It's not as wide-reaching or elegant as .NET, it's not as simple or well understood as COM. It is, like all attempts to bridge different platforms, a set of compromises.
It's GObject, or rather, a derivative of it. Most people here probably see GObject as a way of bringing object orientation to C, something already done by C++ and Objective-C years ago. In fact, one of the primary motivations for developing GObject was the need for a way to make language bindings very easy to do, and at this task it succeeds admirably. Often the parts of GObject that seem unnecessarily complex such as the dual phase destruction process are there to support language bindings - in this case, dual phase destruction allows garbage collectors to break up reference counting cycles before destroying/freeing the individual objects.
GObject is not especially fun to define objects in. It typically requires a lot of boiler plate code, a lot of tedious typing and so on. This is not a valid reason for avoiding GObject in our quest to share code. The need to write lots of code to define an object is only true in C, and by its nature, everything in C is tedious and involves a lot of typing. If you want ease of use, use Python, not C.
The reason GObject is valuable for sharing objects is that it provides a rich object model, type system and more importantly it exposes it all via a C API - accessing it from C++, Python, .NET and so on is easy.
Typically today, GObjects are written in C. There is no particular reason why that must be the case, in fact there is already a proof-of-concept program that uses .NET reflection to examine a .NET object hosted by Mono and spits out libmono->GObject bindings. You can then apply the PyGTK codegen code to bind it into Python, C++ and so on.
You can of course also go direct from .NET to Python, in at least two different ways. The first is to write a Python interpreter that spits out MSIL, and that is then JITed by the mono runtime. I think ActiveState were working on something like this. Unfortunately Python is largely magic remember - there are no guarantees that code runs perfectly unchanged when we do that. The other way is to do direct Mono<->Python bindings, ie that use the libmono/libpython C apis to directly map objects between them. This is possible because both platforms support good reflection/introspection capabilities.
What advantages does using C/GObject as our "hub" bring?
The first is that GObject is a very rich object model - almost as rich as the .NET one, I think. It supports things like signals, which typically have to be bolted onto a languages native object model (see libsigc++). It supports a variety of memory management models. It supports properties, static and virtual methods (kind of, see below), and it supports arbitrary string->value associations. You can do inheritance with it, in contrast to COM which does not really know about that.
The second is that the combination of GObject, GLib and C also provides a lot of the infrastructure needed to usefully share code in the form of a common type system, variants api, marshalling infrastructure, common data types and so on, which are frequently very minimal. There's no need to haggle over the definition of a list, because it's already been defined, and has only the bare essentials. The binding logic is free to layer on top any API it sees fit - translating a GList (which is little more than struct { void *prev, *data, *next }) into a QList which provides a much richer API is straightforward.
GObject has a few practical advantages. It already exists, which is a major plus, and better, is already deployed - every Linux (and FreeBSD and Windows) system that has GTK has GObject. It's well understood - GObject has been used to bind many types of objects into other languages, not just widgets or GNOME APIs - the GNU Triangulation Library, for instance. There is documentation, experience and tools available to make the job of producing the wrapper code easy.
The final advantage of GObject is that it doesn't depend on the user to set anything up. If GTK is installed, that's all you need. There's no registry, no runtime needed - as long as you can deal with shared objects, you're sorted. It can be used entirely internally, for instance you can write parts of a program in C and parts in Python.
GObject though falls short in a few places.
For instance, an object bound into Python from C will not respect virtual method overrides - GObject/GType knows nothing about virtual methods, and there is no set convention for them. A mix of styles is currently used, with no easy way to override methods as a result. I have some ideas for how that could be made better. The defs file format which expresses an API (similar to COM/CORBA IDL) is not specified anywhere, nor even really documented it seems. The tools to bind objects from C are plentiful but the tools to bind objects to C are virtually non-existant. Thread safety is not really handled, unlike in COM where thread safety is (rightly) specified as part of the objects interface (well actually its specified in the registry, not IDL) - though arguably this should not be a part of the object system at all.
Its last problem is that its name starts with a G. Yes, this is really sad, but it causes problems for some people. Hopefully the political problems (which really only seem to affect KDE developers) associated with "another desktops library" are more easily surmounted than the problems with .NET - at any rate, an extension of GObject to deal with the problems outlined above could be called, for instance, CoreObject: maybe that would help.

White cauliflower, orange carrots, red onion and black olives bring lots of pretty color—and flavor—to the table!
Instead of using baby-cut carrots, peel full-size carrots and cut into 2x1/4-inch strips. You can also use yellow or white onions in place of the red variety.
Buy cauliflower that is firm and creamy white with compact flowerets. The size of the head doesn't affect the quality. Avoid heads with any sign of mold or wilted leaves. To store it, wrap cauliflower tightly and refrigerate for 3 to 5 days.
You can assemble this packet up to eight hours ahead of time. Keep it refrigerated until you're ready to grill.

This thought hit me the other day.
At Celebration 6, at the Del-Rey authors panel, several future books were revealed. Scoundrels and Razor's Edge were among them. But the one series that got everyone excited was the proposed Sword of the Jedi, feature Jaina in a post-Fate of the Jedi world. Artwork on the proposed hardback was revealed.
With the EU announcement, I realized we hadn't heard anything about Sword. And guess what? We won't.
That's too bad. I was looking forward to it.
I've been wracking my brain, trying to remember what other books were announced. I do remember that Tarkin wasn't mentioned.

Isn't Robocop 3 the one where he starts flying ? Plus it's a different actor with 3 names, I believe.
Robo 2 was not horrible, could have been worse I suppose.
RoboCop the original is a classic, though ! Love that movie.
Isn't Robocop 3 the one where he starts flying ? Plus it's a different actor with 3 names, I believe.
Robo 2 was not horrible, could have been worse I suppose.
RoboCop the original is a classic, though ! Love that movie.
Robocop 2 in its entirety:

That's my jacket!
Watched two excellent movies the past couple of nights:
Se7en - It had been months, if not a year or so, since I had last seen this movie so I decided it was time for another viewing. Everything about this movie is great. Morgan Freeman, the man is brilliant! I'm a huge fan of his (who isn't?) and I think he gives one of his best performances in this movie, next to Shawshank, Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby (for which he won his Oscar [and I'm not a big fan of MDB, but he did an outstanding job, no doubt]). Freeman absolutely nails the role of Somerset. Brad Pitt, he is good people. I'm not a fan of all of his work, but I do think he gives one of his better performances in Seven; he too does a great job as Detective Mills. Kevin Spacey, man, what a choice there. I kinda wish he got more screen time (I know, but it would have taken away from the movie and wouldn't have worked so well) because he did such a great job for the little amount of screen time he had. R. Lee Ermey also contributes and does a great job as the police captain. I'm not really a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow, but she does some decent acting in this one I guess. Fincher does an outstanding job directing and this is easily my favorite film of his. But yea, everything is very well done, acting, directing, writing, editing, music, everything. Just a quality film.
Crash - Last night I figured I would just watch this one again (for maybe the third time) as I went to sleep, of course I became sucked into the brilliant story and the way it was being told. I didn't intend on watching the entire movie, or even half of it, but before I knew it, the credits were rolling. Excellent movie that has some very powerful scenes and moments and while I was watching it I couldn't help but to say "Man, this movie is f****** amazing!", several times. The way the stories are inter-connected and how the characters are inter-related is beautifully done. Paul Haggis (writer/director/producer) did an outstanding job in all areas while putting together this masterpiece.
"That's the best deal you're gonna get. I won't tell you you can save yourself, because you can't."
I loved se7en until the end. Brad Pitts, whats in the box crap was horrid. If it wasnt for Spacey and Freeman, that would have totally killed the movie for me.
I watched the Usual Suspects the other night. Another great Spacey Flick. Think i mentioned it already but easily one of the top ten movies ever mad and the best "twist" ending to a movie ever.

#24 - Gone but not forgotten
I liked Letters from Iwo Jima better than Flags of Our Fathers. Kind of refreshing to see the Japanese portrayed in a more realistic light than the usual stereotypes seen in other WWII films.
The Australian western The Proposition was pretty good. A police captain offers a wanted man the chance at freedom if he hunts down and kills his eldest brother, suspected in the violent killing of a homesteader and his family.
Weird War Tales: Featuring the Creature Commandos #105 November 1981 (DC Comics)
Blowing through yet another marathon of The Office Season 2 on DVD...resisting the urge to watch anything from Season 3 on iTunes with the 3 DVD coming out one week from Tuesday.
I might watch Waiting later and then it's off to Jim Jam's bday bash.
And my Bond marathon picks up after a few week hiatus (which I needed to recover from the God awful "Moonraker")
"For your eyes only"- A very good Bond film that has a solid plot, action, and is just an overall very good film that feels much more grittier and exciting. I really enjoyed it. ***1/2 out of ****
"Octo*****"- WAY too long, boring, confusing and cheesy at times. I mean, Bond going undercover as a clown, going Tarzan, and hiding in an ape suit?!? I gotta say that Q's line at the end when he's surrounded by ladies had me laughing hysterically. Overall though, not a good film. ** out of ****
"Woke up at 9.55am. Soon as I woke up, I looked at Suzanne and she looked at me. I said, 'Did I tell you about the immune system?' Suzanne starting laughing, I said, 'it's amazing.' She said, 'Not now.'"
Watched a few movies this weekend:
The Last King of Scotland - Great film; very gripping. Forest Whitaker really delivered in his performance, playing the Ugandan dictator, Idi Amin. I can see why he won the Oscar for best actor in a leading role, he did an outstanding job. James McAvoy (Dr. Garrigan) did a really good job as well. But yeah, the movie was really good. I knew the basic background to the movie before seeing it, but there was a lot to the story that was still very shocking. The way the story was told was and how the plot would unfold was done very well too. Just a good film that really makes you think about 'real world' issues.
The Fountain - Still kind of up in the air with this one. I want to like it, but at the same time I have some reservations. The movie definitely has some good qualities, one of which is originality... it is also engaging. It is not your typical film. The cinematography was outstanding and really set the tone of the film, and the parallel stories that were being told. However, at times I was kind of bored, which I wasn't expecting because the movie is only 90 minutes long. The boredom did not last long, but it was still present nonetheless. But the story(ies) were good and it was neat to see how they related to one another, especially the ending. Again, the cinematography was amazing, as were the visual effects; this is definitely worth noting. There is a lot to take in with this film and some will probably become confused and/or lost while watching it; I kept up with it but I may end up watching it again at some point, just to take more of it in.
Van Wilder 2: The Rise of Taj - Ummm... yeah. A movie that probably should have never been made. I may have laughed 5 or so times throughout the entire movie. Two hot chicks, Lauren Cohan and Holly Davidson, was about all this movie had going for it. I like Kal Penn, but he really should have passed on this movie and shot the idea down.
"That's the best deal you're gonna get. I won't tell you you can save yourself, because you can't."
Also watched Vacancy earlier today. Pretty decent flick..kept my interest and it has some nice thrills, despite Luke Wilson getting on my nerves at some points.

Hey guys have any of you ever been to Wizard Con? It's comeing up in about a month, and I just woundered if it was worth my time. I don't care about meeting Lou Firingno (Sp?) or getting the auto of that chick from Farscape, but I am interested in buying Star Wars stuff. So, if I went do you think that there would be a lot of people selling Star Wars stuff? Would it rival St. Charles (wich is a week or two away ). Post it to let me know.

Display Recording Application Live In the App Store It's doing the same thing. Hit record but as soon as you move the screen from the app to record your screen? Just shows the app screen but you can still here audio. I dont want to take the chance and pay for this just to have Apple and yank it off and doesnt support iOS7 LOL
So pretty much this app is a copy of the RecordMyScreen app from Cydia, because it has a pretty similar interface and pretty much works the same. The dev probably took the source code from RecordMyScreen and tweaked the interface, and called it his own, and somehow got it into the app store. This is what i think.
Did anyone do a search before posting this thread? There are a few display recorders out there and the one above has been there since January.

We have a good-sized stash of paint brushes, but my girls love the novelty of painting with various gadgets and objects from around the house. Whether we're raiding the office supplies or the kitchen drawers, there are always interesting items that can be turned into painting tools.
Here are 7 of our favorite unusual and simple painting tools. Many of these painting tools inspire big movement, from bouncing balloons to wiggly rubber bands. Covering your whole table with paper allows for even bigger exploration and fun!
1. Rubber Bands
To make a simple rubber band brush, use a rubber band to secure 5-6 rubber bands to an unsharpened pencil or handle-end of a paintbrush.
2. Bubble Wrap
Whether you wrap it around a block, or cut it into fun shapes, bubble wrap makes an irresistibly fun painting and printing tool.
3. Balloons
I always seem to have a few random balloons around my house. Put those balloons to work during your next painting session. Try dipping them in paint and bouncing on your paper, or bounce them on a full page of wet paint to lift and move the paint around.
4. Cookie Cutters
A thin layer of paint on a paper plate is the perfect partner for a pile of cookie cutters. Dip, print, repeat!
5. Fabric
Experiment with different types of fabric, such as lace, corduroy, tulle, flannel, and fleece. Scrunch the fabric and dip it in paint, or paint flat pieces of fabric and print them on your paper.
6. Body Parts
Move beyond finger painting and try elbow painting or toe painting! If you're feeling real adventurous, nose painting is great fun, too!
7. Plastic Credit Card or Gift Card
Smearing, scraping, and scratching paint with plastic cards creates unique textures, and it's just plain fun!
What kinds of unusual tools or household items do your kids like to paint with?
Happy playing!

Possibly but the podcast I listened to yesterday Jurgy is very high on Shea right now, he's making the most of his minutes at Stoke and I bet Jurgy calls him in and starts him wide left for the Costa Rica game. Jurgy also is dead set on the Jones/Bradley combo in the midfield and said with time if they learn to play together and can grasp the concept that when one pushes forward the other holds that he would love to play without a true 6... The thought of that scares me
If jones has the right tactical job, then he's really a pretty good player. It's when coach doesn't make it clear enough that him thundering down the field and passing it to the other team is not an acceptable possession, that we all groan and love to hate him
In terms of players who have been reported to be joining the team, Jozy Altidore, Eddie Johnson, Fabian Johnson, Danny Williams and Sacha Kljestan have all been identified as making the trip according to their respective clubs. Sources tell SBI that Brek Shea is also on the roster, while there are rumblings that Joe Corona has not made the squad. Also, D.C. United teammates Chris Pontius and Bill Hamid were seen at D.C. United training today, making it appear as though they won't be on the squad.

Witherspoon statue unveiled
Posted June 22, 2001; 11:24 a.m.
Former President Harold T. Shapiro and Vivian Shapiro represented Princeton Friday at the unveiling of a statue of John Witherspoon at Scotlands University of Paisley. A twin copy of the 9-foot-tall, bronze statue will be erected on the Princeton campus in the fall.
Among the other participants at the dedication were Princess Anne, internationally renowned sculptor Alexander Stoddart, and officials from the American consulate and the University of Paisley.
Witherspoon, the sixth president of Princeton, was a clergyman in Paisley in the mid-1700s. The only clergyman to sign the Declaration of Independence, Witherspoon was a leading member of the Continental Congress.
He arrived from Scotland to become president of Princeton in 1768 and served for a quarter of a century until his death in 1794.
The statue will follow Witherspoons path when it comes to Princeton in the fall, traveling by boat to Philadelphia and over land to Princeton. It will be installed near Firestone Library and dedicated in November.

|Stripers and Coastal Gamefish Stripers, Blues, Inshore tuna!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
RE:Ammend 6 Issue # 4 - Management reference points
It would seem in order to have significant numbers of big fish you have to release big fish. To me there is no practical reason for keeping a 30 plus pound fish exept to show it off. If you put the limit up here in Mass between 34" and 42" or something like that and released all fish coast wide over 42" you would have the best of both worlds. Given the numbers and sophistication of todays fisherman I don't think many fish will be able to run the gauntlet for the twenty plus years it takes to reach 50 plus pounds.
RE:Ammend 6 Issue # 4 - Management reference points
Bruce -
I've yet to download this but I will when I get back on a high-speed line.
On topic - the concept of max sustainable yield is sound, but depends on what that yield level is set to; and depends on how that yield is distributed across multiple regions in a global sense (as opposed to the state / regional levels). Another factor would be how it is quantified and verified.
I feel the ratio of release to kill in MA needs to change in favor of C&R. I believe the percentage of stripers killed across the atlantic states is 30-35% in MA, the most of all states (I'll have to check the records to confirm).
Even with the slot limit in Maine, the harvest in Maine is a drop in the bucket compared to MA. I'll find that seaboard states comparison on striped bass harvest I am referring to and post a link.
Ammend 6 Issue # 4 - Management reference points
Currently our ASMFC managment is using maximum sustainable yeild for its overfishing definition. Lately some have complained of a lack of larger fish. This is your opportunity to suggest alternative managment ideas to the ASMFC. What thoughts might some of you have on this issue ?

Don Giovanni
で Metropolitan Opera
Don Giovanni is based on the legends of Don Juan, a fictional libertine and seducer. Composed by Mozart, this is a true masterpiece which now plays at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York.
We follow the title character and his earthy comic sidekick, Leporello, through a series of encounters that begins with a fatal duel and moves back and forth between the humorous and the sentimental.
Don Giovanni has two acts, and it is sung in Italian with Met titles in English, German, Italian, and Spanish.
How do I get my tickets?
- Shortly after your booking is complete, you will receive an e-ticket by email. Please print out your ticket and bring it with you to the Metropolitan Opera.

Myotonia congenita is an inherited condition that affects muscle relaxation. It is congenital, meaning that it is present from birth.
Thomsen's disease; Becker's disease
Myotonia congenita is caused by a genetic change (mutation). It is passed down from either one or both parents to their children (inherited).
Myotonia congenita is caused by a problem in the part of the muscle cells that are needed for muscles to relax. Abnormal repeated electrical signals occur in the muscles, causing a stiffness called myotonia.
The hallmark of this condition is myotonia -- the muscles are unable to quickly relax after contracting. For example, after a handshake, the person is only very slowly able to open and pull away his hand.
Early symptoms may include:
Children with myotonia congenita often look muscular and well-developed. They may not have symptoms of myotonia congenita until age 2 or 3.
The doctor may ask if there is a family history of myotonia congenita.
Tests include:
Mexiletine is a medication that treats symptoms of myotonia congenita. Other treatments include:
People with this condition can do well. Symptoms only occur when a movement is first started. After a few repetitions, the muscle relaxes and the movement becomes normal.
Some people experience the opposite effect (paradoxical myotonia) and get worse with movement. Their symptoms may improve later in life.
Call your health care provider if your child has symptoms of myotonia congenita.
Couples who want to have children and who have a family history of myotonia congenita should consider genetic counseling.

Python and Graphics Posted a question to comp.lang.python a while back, and got some good responses on it. I'm looking for a set of widgets that play nice with OpenGL and have cross-platform support in Python. The responses to the posting led me to wxpython, and I've been playing around with it, mostly by making my PyCheckbook program work with wxpython.
Thus far I'm really impressed, particularly with wxGlade, the builder for wxpython, which I find even nicer than Glade.
But even apart from wxGlade, wxpython has a nice professional feel to it, like it was designed rather than just thrown together. I'm really enjoying it thus far.
