Hancock, Indiana (PressExposure) July 18, 2009 -- Facts
Most Americans have never filed anything with the Immigration Office. Americans have no idea that the purpose is to accept your forms and fee's while providing minimal guidance.
The United States does NOT want all of these Immigrants to be here, or to become Citizens. The USCIS within the last 6 months, has Changed the Forms, Raised the Fees, and Relocated the proper Mail Address to process these applications. This Process is Difficult for a Reason. http://www.workathomewebjobs.com
I have seen similar packages selling for $49,$69,$99 or more. Some of these kits are more complicated then the original USCIS instructions. I don't want pages of embassies, or 10 pages of terms. I want a package that tells me to file online if its faster, and provides direct web links. [http://www.moneymymoney.com]
I want to finish and file these forms. Not read a term paper on immigration.
Did you know that the K1 fiancé visa takes 9 months to a year longer than the marriage visa? If you can marry abroad and file with the local embassy, under the LIFE Act, you could be processed and in the United States in 90 Days, compared to a year for a fiancé visa.
Who has wants to wait a year to be with the one you love? At American Immigration Publishers, we have personal hands on experience, and have helped hundreds of people with their immigration needs.
The only trick is that the Government is always changing the acceptance addresses, raising fees and remaking forms. Use the Official Government site. Our product helps you use the information better, faster, the first time.

Hey Rachio!
Before I delve into my experience and why I'm a great fit for the Marketing Manager position, I want to say this… the Rachio watering system sounds AWESOME. In all honesty, I hadn't heard of Rachio before seeing the job posting. But, I'm a big fan of home automation.
My wife and I bought Hue lights when they came out – day of! Since then, we've upgraded our house (in the West Highlands) to include an ecobee3 and Amazon Echo. Using IFTTT, we have our lights programmed to turn on at sunset, turn purple when it rains (Purple Rain), use our Echo to change the ecobee temp, etc. But, I didn't know that I could have the option to also now find a solution for the extreme pain that is my sprinkler system.
I already dislike my system, it's archaic, hard to program accurately and offers no rain delay options. OK, enough about my griping – it's all to say that even if you don't wish to talk to me about the job, I'm going to do some serious research about Rachio for my home.
Onto my actual work experience! I graduated with a degree in journalism in 2006. I got a job out of college at The Onion, where I worked for four years doing events management and advertising. Since then, I've worked at Columbia College Chicago for nearly six years, of which five have been remotely from home in Denver. For CCC, I've worked mostly in marketing communications and operations.
My career path has organically moved away from content creation, so to keep my written skills sharp, I've freelanced as a copywriter, social media editor, photographer, blogger and more. I'm working on writing my first novel. For over two years, I've been a freelance social media editor for the YMCA of America, working to reshape the brand and align content to the brand as it evolves beyond "just a gym."
I hope this brief intro (and rant) intrigues you for a more in depth conversation. I LOVE that you're local, that you're working to conserve water in innovative ways. Rachio seems like a company I'd love to work for and could really thrive at. I hope you feel the same. Let's talk.Mierendorf_Resume_Rachio

Last September we opened a cafe as part of a new critical access hospital. We were spoiled with a great budget allowing us to get some of the best equipment on the market. Sometimes having enough budget is the problem.
Our Fancy, Expensive, Crappy Toaster…
…shall remain nameless to protect the innocent. Being a small kitchen we'd always found 4-slice toasters to handle our menu without being a problem. The new space was spec'd with a cool, $450 unit that looked great, had a bagel side, a sliced bread side and didn't use traditional coils. I figured it had to be better…right? We also planned to put the toaster on a different counter than the design drawing showed.
Unpacking the box we realized that we hadn't asked about electrical requirements. The toaster required 220v and the kitchen was built with only one spare 220v outlet. We had to place the toaster exactly where the design dictated because I overlooked that when it was early enough to change it. Not a big deal we plugged it in and ran it empty a number of times to burn off the "new equipment fumes."
Weeks later we were still trying to get the settings right on this thing. Ultimately, it does not toast a whole slice of bread. Instead, the fancy no-coil system toasts a nice brown square in the center of the bread. This leaves a one-inch border of clearly non-toasted bread around three of the four sides. Not only that, but it's slow. It takes at least 25% longer to toast than a traditional coil toaster.
Waring to the rescue
Fed up, I shopped around and it was difficult to find commercial toasters under $250. Through my normal suppliers I was looking at 1-2 weeks before delivery and $200 minimum. Falling back on Amazon I found this normal, no frills 4-slice unit from Waring. It meets all fire and health code requirements. It even works in standard outlets so we could now move the toaster anywhere we want.
It's a $315 unit that was on sale for $167. Two days later it showed up on our doorstep and worked great. It's fast and toasts even. We loved it enough that I bought a second unit from Amazon for my other kitchen. This time it was marked down to $138! At the time of this writing it's back up to $175, but that's still a good price for a commercial grade 4-slice toaster.
If you don't like your current toaster, click here to buy this one.
Update: Amazon shows some negative reviews for longevity. We've only had these units for a month so I can't comment on that. But the truth is I'd rather buy a unit that does what we want for one year, than one that only kind of does what we want for 10 years.

I'm using OpenFOAM on an university machine I'm accessing with Putty.
Getting a notification would be very nice, so I don't have to check all the time if the solver is still running.

> Mailing:
The backend for mailing is normally sendmail or postfix on Unix-type machines, but I wouldn't generally advise descending to that level. Instead it is easier to use /bin/mail, /usr/bin/mail, /usr/ucb/mail - the exact path depends on which OS you are using. On some systems you might need to use Mail or mailx.
Read the appropriate manpage and you'll see that they all use -s "some subject" followed by the mail address. The body of the message is taken from stdin. ASSUMING the mailer is correctly set up on the machine, you'll either get the email directly or you can set the email address in the ~/.forward file.
You can simply wrap the call to the appropriate mailer within a shell script (eg, foamMail might be a nice name) and generate your message on-thy-fly (eg, report the time/date and PWD of the job that finished) any pipe it thru to the mailer.

The Indian Premier League is all set to begin early next month. Like always, the ardent fans of the world-renowned championship are waiting for the new season of the league with bated breath. The 10th edition is likely to have all the ingredients of great cricketainment that the IPL always offers. It is now a good time to look back at some memorable features of the tourney's history.
Here, we look at the five bowlers with the most wickets in a single season in the tournament's history. These bowlers have dominated an entire season on their own and won matches almost single-handedly for their teams through their skillful bowling. Have a look.
5. Morne Morkel – 25 wickets in IPL 2012:
Though Morne Morkel hasn't played quite as many IPL games as he should have, the tall South African bowler has been quite impressive. In the 2012 season, Morkel, representing the Delhi Daredevils, was on absolute fire as he generated great pace and bounce and made batting difficult for the batsmen. In 16 matches that year, Morkel captured 25 wickets at a fantastic average of 18.12 and an economy of 7.19. His best spell was an impressive 4-22.
4. Dwayne Bravo – 26 wickets in IPL 2015:
West Indian all-rounder Dwayne Bravo has been one of the standout performers in the IPL and has won countless games for Chennai Super Kings with his skillful bowling. In the 2015 season, Bravo was a tad expensive in the death overs, but he got regular wickets in the middle overs with his slower ones and in and out swingers. Bravo collected 26 wickets in 17 matches that season at a great average of 16.38 and an economy rate of 8.14. His best spell was a superb 3-22.
3. James Faulkner – 28 wickets in IPL 2013:
The Australian all-rounder was a revelation for the Rajasthan Royals in the 2013 season. With his great mix of slower ones, loopy bouncers, yorkers, cutters and straight ones, Faulkner scalped an impressive 28 wickets in the season for his team at an excellent average of 15.25 and an economy rate of 3.75. He had two five-wicket hauls with a best spell of 5-16.
2. Lasith Malinga – 28 wickets in IPL 2011:
Sri Lanka's 'Slinga Malinga' has been the most dangerous death bowler in the IPL's history. With his slingy action and an ability to bowl consistent toe-crushing yorkers at the death, Malinga is the most difficult bowler to handle. His economical bowling often results in him in getting wickets in almost every game he plays. Representing Mumbai Indians in the IPL, Malinga captured a whopping 28 wickets in the 2011 season at an amazing average of 13.39 and an outstanding economy of 5.95. His best was an excellent 5-13.
1. Dwayne Bravo – 32 wickets in IPL 2013:
The West Indian all-rounder has been one of the most productive bowlers ever in the championship. His slower ones, yorkers, and cutters have made life hell for batsmen in the middle-overs and have helped him get a bucketful of wickets. In the 2013 season, Brave was phenomenal for the Chennai Super Kings and got 32 wickets in 18 matches at an average of 15.53 and an economy of 7.95. His best was an excellent spell of 4-42.

Geoarcheology (MSc)
Program Information
Degrees Offered:
Geoarcheology (MSc)
Format: Campus
Program Description:
Geoarcheology, an unique master programme, will provide you with a (earth) scienctific base, combined with cultural archaeology. Your knowledge will be essential when it comes to tracking down sites, deciding on whether a dig should take place or how the remains should be preserved in situ for future generations of researchers. You will employ the latest technology in order to date any materials found or to learn about the old techniques available to the people who produced the objects found. Many archaeological finds are buried in the ground and your knowledge of that soil and what it tells about the former landscape will therefore be essential to understanding these finds in their proper context.A European treaty (Malta 1992) has decreed that before any construction project can commence, the site in question must be studied for traces of cultural heritage. This means that geoarchaeologists will be very much in demand in the near future. You could soon be one of the first geoarchaeologists on the market, with plenty of opportunity to become a leading authority on location methods, archaeological finds or the landscapes of the past.

This is a really weird movie. People will instantly recognize that it
is an adaptation of Franz Kafka's writing, and that's exactly what it
is. It isn't an adaptation of any one book of his, but rather of his
writing as a whole. All the Kafka-esquire things you'd expect are here:
conspiracy, paranoia, mystery, and the like. What is so amazing that
they come together absolutely fantastically. The cinematography is
especially ingenious and really captures the mysterious and cryptic
look and feel of a Kafka tale. The use of color and B&W is pretty
simple, but very effective. In fact the whole movie is pretty simple,
there are no spectacular stunts or extraordinary set pieces, just a
relentless, nail-biting, suspense as Kafka searches for answers to who
murdered his friend. He receives help from a supposed rebel group who
talks of a secret order and conspiracy that works from the confines of
a mysterious looking building outside of town, but they are soon
murdered...so Kafka goes to find the truth for himself. First-rate
suspense all the way. 10/10
Rated PG-13: some violence and grim content
Many filmmakers have often failed when attempting to adapt the work of
writer Franz Kafka (most famously Orson Wells), so it comes as quite a
surprise to see Steven Soderbergh mixing his life and fiction with fantastic
results. The story concerns Kafka (a never better Jeremy Irons)
investigating the disappearance of one of his work colleagues. The plot
takes Kafka through many of the writer's own works, most notably "The
Castle" and "The Trial"...
With his follow up to the cool indie hit Sex, lies and videotape (1989) Soderbergh switches both style and ideas completely, creating an evocative and ethereal world of 1920 Prague, full of shadows and bizarre mutations. He also employs shifts between colour and black and white film stock, to give the film a more dreamlike feel.
Visually it is similar to another film from the same year, Lars Von Trier's Europa (1991), which also was about a man searching for the truth. But Kafka is more accessible, being both a gripping thriller and in some ways a black comedy. But however you choose to look at it, there is no denying Kafka's ability to amaze and enthral.
Not very accessible film about supposed parts of the life of Franz Kafka
with fantastic distinctive music and great photography. I really think
Soderbergh is one of few (Welles, Gilliam, Cronenberg, Roeg maybe) who are
able to create something like this. He is one of the most versatile
directors of our time. Only his third feature (right after 'Sex, Lies &
Videotape') and definitely his best besides Traffic. This film is one of
the reasons independent filmmaking is the only way to achieve great
cinematic creations. Kafka's twilight and absurd world is really portrayed
in an excellent way.
The cinematography by Walt Lloyd is absolutely brilliant. The best of all films from the nineties. It was probably inspired by Brazil (1985), The Third Man (1949) and The Trial (1963). I wish this film was 60 minutes longer. If only to give the cast more time to perform completely. The acting isn't uplifting, but definitely not bad. All the actors had better performances in other movies (Theresa Russell in Track 29, Jeremy Irons in Dead Ringers, Jeroen Krabbe in King of the Hill, Ian Holm in Brazil).
10 points out of 10 ;-)
This is a somewhat curious film, attempting to be old-fashioned - in
the sense that we have varying strands from an early-twentieth century
writer, as well as setting, production design and various visual
iconography - yet at the same time striving for a sense of
post-modernist reinvention. So, what we end up with is a stunning,
self-referential combination of the 'look' (which mixes elements of
Carol Reed's The Third Man and Welles' Citizen Kane), with elements of
the steam-punk sub-genre of films like Eraserhead, Brazil, Tetsuo: The
Iron Man, Barton Fink, etc . The story also concerns itself with the
notions of the film-noir, both in terms of characterisation, narrative
tension and visual design.
So, with Kafka (1991), we not only have the externally referential - of Kafka writing a story, whilst simultaneously involving himself in a real-life plot that will, in turn, become the story he is writing (The Castle) - but also the internal references to Kafka's own biographical history; from his job at the insurance company, to the difficult relationship with his father, and also his failed love affair etc. In the lead role we have one of Britain's most competent actors, Jeremy Irons, who, although never looking exactly like Kafka, does at least manage to embody the quiet, stubborn, meticulous spirit of the writer (or, at least the image that we have of him). His performance is one of complete restraint, far removed from some of his more caricatured performances of recent years, as he offers up a mirrored perspective for the audience; lingering in the background of the scene and simply reacting to what is going on around him (again, a popular device from Kafka's work).
Director Steven Soderbergh compliments and visualises the screenplay by Lem Dobbs exceptionally well, drawing on the aforementioned influences in a similar, post-modernistic way to their subsequent 1999 collaboration, The Limey. Soderbergh also offers us a depiction of a crumbling Europe thrown into confusion, creating a fully functioning world, much like Ridley Scott did with Blade Runner - offering us an illustration of the past by way of the future - or a depiction of Europe in decline to rival that of Fassbinder's The Marriage of Maria Braun (1979), von Trier's Europa (1991) and Soderbergh own subsequent film, The Good German (2006). So, whereas most films are content to create, or in this case recreate, early-twentieth century iconography in which the past is as pristine and shockingly brand-new, as if it were created only a yesterday, here we get a past that is dirty, grimy, filled with smoke, fog and dust; in short... totally believable.
This is a film the people expect too much coherency from; something that Soderbergh's continual mainstream success has only damaged further. As more and more cinema-goers come to adore films like Oceans 11 (2000), Traffic (2001) and Solaris (2002), they come to Kafka expecting a mainstream Hollywood thriller. Kafka couldn't be further from this. Here is an intelligent film that draws on the audience's understanding of European cinema and, to some extent, Kafka's own literary back-catalogue in order to piece together the film's central mystery. The main reference point is Kafka's book The Castle; here featured as an imposing fortress atop a shadowy hill. Inside, Kafka finds Ian Holm's mad scientist and the film switches to glorious Technicolor. There are also allusions made to The Trail, with Armin Mueller-Stahl's detective doggedly questioning Kafka's whereabouts and the integrity of his 'story' (an important factor within the film's internal struggle), as well as a direct reference to The Metamorphosis and some of the writer's more abstract shorter pieces.
Soderbergh and Dobbs aren't concerned with pandering to anyone here; they allow the story to remain, much like Kafka himself, an enigma. The story grips us like film-noir should, and Soderbergh keeps us enthralled with his constantly inventive camera work. This is a perfect film that deals with notions of fact and fiction, dreams and reality. The filmmakers respect our intelligence; they understand that some question can remain unanswered and film can work better as a result of this. Whether or not you believe the story to have taken place entirely in Kafka's head (note how the last shot of the film sees Kafka at his writing desk) or whether you see it as the mirroring of fact and fiction is entirely up to you. With fine support from Theresa Russell, Jeroen Krabbé and Alec Guinness, coupled with an exotic Cliff Martinez score, what we have with Kafka is one of the best and most underrated films of the nineteen nineties. A unique experience.
Steven Soderbergh's cult "Kafka" is not a biopic of writer Franz Kafka,
yet it has references of his works such as "The Castle", passages of
his life (where he tells to a friends to burn his manuscripts away
without showing his writings to the public) and a main character who
happens to be a writer named Kafka.
The extremely shy Kafka (Jeremy Irons) works in a bureaucratic place where he also writes to himself a few stories and some letters to his father. In this same place he only has one friend, a guy named Edward Raban who disappeared mysteriously. Kafka starts a strange journey trying to figure out what happened to his friend entering in a dangerous game with some strange figures such as Edward's lover and Kafka's co-worker (Theresa Russell) and her revolutionary friends; a very friendly figure who knows too much (Jeroen Krabbé); Grubach a police inspector (Armin Mueller-Stahl); and some of his own work colleagues such as his new assistants (Keith Allen and Simon McBurney), his estranged boss (Alec Guinness) and the annoying Mr. Burgel (Joel Grey); and at last Dr. Murnau (Ian Holm).
In a magnificent performance Jeremy Irons makes of his Kafka a man suffocated by the environment where he lives and the only way to escape of it it's to write stories that reflect his life in an awkward way and/or his life as an "investigator" that took him to darker places that could have been a source of inspiration for his works. The movie goes to tell us that he lived in a bizarre and very surrealistic place with surrealistic figures all around him and they were always trying to watch his next step, what he was doing and Kafka run away from this people, hides his writing works. This is a good thriller material!
Soderbergh makes of "Kafka" a good humored film noir that has a great mystery to be solved, the rhythm of the film is intertwined with some slow paced moments where you can pause your brain to solve some of the puzzles, a frantic suspense that goes to complete a surrealistic plot. The final result is a great movie with nothing obvious and it makes good homages to Kafka's work, and homages to another classic films. It is an interesting cross between "The Third Man" and "Brazil", the visual of those two films combined along with the almost colorless Kafka's books are put together in here.
Walt Lloyd's cinematography is one of the most interesting and effective work ever made in film history, a photography that goes from black and white to color in a great way, showing these two worlds that seem to distant so each other when in fact they're close enough. In this case you can sense that the colorful world presented in the castle isn't better than the oppressive grey world outside of its dominions, the colors are presented only to tell us a frightening reality that is so shocking that we really want to go back to the black and white world along with Kafka. And as a great mind said one time: "The black and white doesn't lie".
Unnoticed in its time "Kafka" is a cult film that must be revered by everyone and must of all revered by Kafka's fans even though this is not a biographical movie, it's more like a film that reveals more of his persona and an invitation to visually penetrate to his own creations. Or don't you think that we don't live in a Kafkanian nightmare in a Kafkanian world? 10/10
Some see this film as a step down from Steven Soderbergh's
brilliantly-constructed debut feature, "sex, lies and videotape." I see it
as a significant step in his artistic development (even if its commercial
and critical failure limited the audiences for his next several films).
Certainly no one expected him to follow the low-key, character-driven "sex,
lies" with such a complicated, stylized film as "Kafka."
An inspired script by Lem Dobbs and a great cast drive Soderbergh's visually rich film. Besides the leads, of note are Joel Grey as the self-important bureaucrat Burgel, Brian Glover as the menacing Castle Henchman, and Keith Allen and Simon McBurney as Kafka's side-splittingly incompetent "assistants." And Cliff Martinez's score (inspired by "The Third Man") is ingenious.
To call this film underrated would be a severe understatement.
The above statement (coined by myself in an odd bout of pretension) refers
to any film in which the central character inhabits a world in which
has no say in their own outcome; everything is pre-destined from the
The actors therefore become mere marionettes, puppets controlled by the
film-makers as a function to drive the plot, or the story that is
in this world. With Kafka, we never really feel too much of a connection
with the man himself (main character Kafka played by Jeremy Irons), but we
are interested in his outcome because the subjective reality of his world
draws us in. Sometimes this idea of the atmosphere of a film being what
draws us in can go horribly wrong, it's not like say, Gone in 60 seconds
(2000)... I'm not talking about a thick, glowing sludgy style of
cinematography that has become all the more popular with younger
film-makers. I am instead talking about the more classical style of film,
composition, lighting and production design... Kafka has this in
Steven Soderbergh is possibly the most talented director at work at the moment (that's debatable, but he is the most talented American director of the last fifteen years), his ability to effortlessly switch both genre and cinematic devise is a talent most directors lack, but Soderbergh went from the low-key drama of Sex, Lies & Videotape to the arty-thriller Kafka, and then moved onto the arty-low-key drama King of the Hill... Those where films that where brimming with ideas, mood and a strong independent visual sense, something his more recent films lack. With Kafka, Soderbergh applied the dark, noir-ish style of Wells and Bergman, with just the right blend of modern multi-media devises, colour is used to show the jarring contrast between the real-world (the subjective reality) to the horror's of the Castle. The skewed angles and the editing of certain scenes not only give the film a certain style, but help the audience identify between the different dreamscapes the film switches between, weather it be the world or Kafka's own imagination.
Much has been said in recent IMDB reviews about how the film is a betrayal of Kafka, having never read a word of Kafka I cannot comment, but I think people should allow Soderbergh and writer Lem Dobbs some artistic licensing. This is not an attempt to tell the life story of Kafka, it's more a "what if..." scenario, what if actual events dictated the writings of Kafka. The film blares the boundaries between fantasy and reality, and this is the point, this is why the film is set-up to conform to Subjective reality, we are being taken into Kafka's own world, a world he has absolutely no control over. Besides, most people are missing the point, and that is the film is a fantasy, not historical document, none of these would be literati's have mentioned the exemplary acting of all concerned.
Jeremy Irons is an actor I usually have little time for, in all honesty I have only seen a handful of his films and few of them left an impression, but here he is cast well, his stuffy British-ness and detached glare makes him an almost mythical figure, drifting around the city unsure of what will happen next. And the supporting cast is very credible, with roles for the legendary Alec Guinness, Ian Holm in a role not too dissimilar to the one he played in Gilliam's Brazil, Verhoeven regular Jeroen Krabbé puts in an appearance as one of Kafka's few allies and Armin Mueller-Stahl plays the dogged police inspector. The only annoyance amongst the cast is "Fat Les" himself Keith Allen as one half of a laughable (un)funny Laurel and Hardy-esque double act. Kafka is an unbelievably assured film from the (then) young Soderbergh that needs to be seen by more people besides Kafka fanatics who are only destroying the mystique of the film with their propaganda. This is a standout fantasy-thriller that has more style and intelligence than anything you'll find playing at you're local multiplex. 10/10
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Kafka, a clerk at a Prague insurance firm, is upset when a friend
mysteriously vanishes. Investigating the disappearance, he uncovers a
group of terrorists trying to expose a secret police state where all
non-conformists are kidnapped and murdered.
This is a terrific mosaic of a picture; part biopic (Franz Kafka was a clerk, did not get on with his father, asked a friend to destroy his manuscripts and died of tuberculosis), part adaptation of Kafka's fiction (notably The Castle and The Trial), part homage to German expressionist cinema (Holm's character is called Murnau), and an enjoyably scary Gothic thriller with a great mad cast. Irons is a perfectly repressed hero, Russell is as gorgeous and intimidating as ever, Krabbe steals his scenes as a canny gravedigger, Mueller-Stahl is a copper from forties film-noir complete with razor-blade voice, Glover is an iconic villain and Allen and McBurney have a whale of a time as two pratfalling assistants. The script is a bit disposable, but it captures the essence of Kafka's nightmarish scribblings perfectly - hideous bureaucracy, impotent heroes, monstrous cabals, devious conspiracies and an overwhelming sense that truth and beauty are beyond our grasp. Shot in Prague in glorious black-and-white on fantastic period locations and stunning sets by production designer Gavin Bocquet. This is a great filmmaker's film - it's impossible to imagine it existing in any other form of expression, and it manages to be richly artistic but at the same time extremely enjoyable and completely lacking in pretension. Soderbergh is a bit of an enigma to me - this is a great movie, as is his subsequent film, King Of The Hill, but both bombed financially, whereas many of his later more commercial and critically-lauded movies are much less interesting. Check out Kafka though - it's got style, scares and terrific performances, and it's about the greatest paranoid fantastist that ever lived.
This film is a tribute to Franz Kafka, with a plot inspired from his
writings. Without reading at least one book by Kafka, the film is
totally incomprehensible. A writer that lived at the end of the 18th
century and the start of the 19th, he wrote about the depressing world
of oppressing capitalism, the same mass oriented philosophy that
inspired fascism and communism alike. His books were never happy and
their ending was often depressing.
So why should this film be any different? The plot is kind of shifty, but the acting, cinematography, location and music are great. After seeing this film, I can't imagine anybody else but Jeremy Irons in the lead role.
Bottom line: it's about the feeling. The same dark feeling that Kafka expressed through his books is expressed by this movie. The story (a mix of Kafka subjects) is just a pretext. Be warned, though, that it is not an easy movie. It is a noir and heavy film.
Much like David Cronenberg's 'Naked Lunch', 'Kafka' attempts to merge a
biographical film and a literary adaptation, by combining elements from
Franz Kafka's notoriously unfilmable books and stories with details
from his real life. The thing is, where Steven Soderbergh's film is an
admirable effort at filming Kafka's work, other films by more
accomplished directors, made around the same time or several years
earlier, managed to capture Kafka's spirit much more successfully
without ever mentioning his name or the title of any of his works -
Scorsese's 'After Hours', Woody Allen's 'Shadows and Fog', and to a
lesser extent Terry Gilliam's 'Brazil' and Joel & Ethan Coen's 'Barton
Fink' all achieve Kafka's unique feeling of futility and paranoia, as
well as his pitch black sense of humor, while 'Kafka' resembles Kafka's
writing mainly on the surface. This is the script's fault more than
Soderbergh's, because the film looks great and delivers the dark, weird
disconcerting feeling of Kafka's works, but by not delving into the
philosophy behind them, by having almost no sense of humor, and by
adhering to a pretty straightforward conspiracy plot, it remains little
more than an aesthetic illustration of what a Kafka film might look
Despite a weak script, the film manages several memorable scenes, mainly thanks to terrific cinematography and a wonderful cast - Jeremy Irons, surprisingly, not being one of the film's standout performance. Rather, it's more minor characters played by Joel Grey, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Keith Allen, Simon McBurney and the great Alec Guinness in his last feature film role that stick to the viewer's mind, and for brief moments they can create the sense of paranoia, of surreal, nightmarish bureaucracy that is at the root of Kafka's writing; again, without the underlying philosophy, there's something unsatisfying about the overall result, and the story keeps distracting from the more interesting aspects. The film is, overall, interesting but frustrating; it's probably worth watching for Kafka fans, but it's not good enough to truly appease them. On the other hand, it may be too confusing for anyone who isn't familiar enough with his work.

Camera login, instead of password?
I want to know, is it possible to make me use camera to log-in into my account in w7? Ofc password can be also available in case of broken camera or something. Are there any modifications for it?
|My System Specs

I believe you would need a camera designed for this purpose, that comes with specialized software as well.
From a security standpoint, I can't imagine any reason to want this, and why the password screen is a problem.

It is deifnitely possible, as I have seen cameras (usually built-in) to laptops that advertise this feature. The question I have is...why? What if I shave (or grow out a beard) and the camera doesn't recognize me? What if someone who looks similar to me sits down? What if I switch between glasses and contacts? What if a female drastically changes her hair color/style?
All of those would default to just typing in a password...which is very simple...so I never understood the need or desire to find other ways to log in. They all seem so problematic.

deaconfrost is correct , my laptop has this feature with the inbuilt webcam,
the cyberlink you cam software allows you to have this feature,
However it didnt take long to disable it. if the lighting isnt the same as when you took the " password picture" then you have difficulties logging in, also if you dont have your face and head at the same distance and level you will hit trouble too. it is so annoying you will only use it a few times for the novelty.

Unanswered: Applying 'Between' criteria with 'Order By' to a query
I have a query which performs a statistical test based on results of another query:
SELECT AuditNames.Hospital, AuditNames.Room, AuditNames.Examination, AuditNames.[Patient Size], AuditNames.[Tube Voltage (kV)], AuditNames.[Tube Current (mAs)], AuditNames.[DAP (cGy cm2)], AuditNames.[Date of Birth], AuditNames.Gender, AuditNames.Age
FROM AuditNames, PercentRmResults
WHERE (((AuditNames.Room)=[forms]![RADForm]![cboRooms]) AND ((AuditNames.Examination)=[forms]![RADForm]![cboExam]) AND ((AuditNames.[Patient Size])=[forms]![RADForm]![cboSize]) AND ((AuditNames.[DAP (cGy cm2)]) Between ([PercentRmResults].[Average DAP (cGy cm2)]-(2*[PercentRmResults].[Std Dev of DAP])) And ([PercentRmResults].[Average DAP (cGy cm2)]+(2*[PercentRmResults].[Std Dev of DAP]))))ORDER BY AuditNames.Hospital, AuditNames.Room;
This tests if a dose value falls within the specified range range from the results of the other query.
Now i applied similar criteria to a different query where it should automatically perform the same test using the 'between' command in the criteria:
SELECT DISTINCT AuditNames.Hospital, AuditNames.Room, AuditNames.Examination, AuditNames.[Patient Size], AuditNames.[Tube Voltage (kV)], AuditNames.[Tube Current (mAs)], AuditNames.[DAP (cGy cm2)], AuditNames.[Date of Birth], AuditNames.Gender, AuditNames.Age
FROM PercentGenResults, AuditNames
WHERE (((AuditNames.[Patient Size])=[forms]![RADForm]![cboGenSize]) AND ((AuditNames.[DAP (cGy cm2)]) Between ([PercentGenResults].[Average DAP (cGy cm2)]-(2*[PercentGenResults].[Std Dev of DAP])) And ([PercentGenResults].[Average DAP (cGy cm2)]+(2*[PercentGenResults].[Std Dev of DAP]))) AND ((AuditNames.Age)>=16))
ORDER BY AuditNames.Hospital, AuditNames.Room, AuditNames.Examination;
I get reasonable results...but i'm concerned that the comparison is based on all the values of the results query and not being applied for corresponding examination types.
Any way i could apply 'order by' along with 'between' as criteria or something of the sort to test for each examination separately?
The first query runs on selection of three criteria specific to a particular room, examination and patient size. The second on the other hand is more like a summary for all exams in all rooms for a chosen patient size...Even considered a union query that would perform the comparison for each examination and combine the results in the union query output, but i keep getting lost in the text of the sql screen.

Rhoads Hydraulic Lifters
For maximum low end torque, engine vacuum and fuel economy, you need a smaller, more efficient cam. But smaller cams rob mid and upper RPM power needed for fast acceleration. For more mid and upper RPM power, you need a larger, more powerful camshaft. But larger cams are murder on low-end torque, engine vacuum, fuel economy and idle quality. With Rhoads Lifters, you get both! Rhoads Lifters work automatically and give you a ''smaller'' cam at lower RPM and a ''larger'' cam at higher RPM for the best of both worlds. How you ask? At idle and lower RPM where lugging power and more torque are needed, Rhoads Lifters ''bleed down'' to make you cam seem smaller by about 10°. This really boosts low-end torque, engine vacuum, fuel economy and idle quality. At higher engine speeds where more cam boosts mid and upper RPM power, the Rhoads Lifters work to restore full lift and duration of your cam for maximum top-end power. As your engine revs higher, Rhoads Lifters bleed less because there is simply less time to bleed at higher engine speeds. Near 3500 RPM, the bleed action has virtually disappeared, shifting back to your full cam and maximum horsepower potential back into action. Here's an example:
Using a hydraulic cam with 280° duration and .450'' valve lift, here's approximately what the valve timing will look like inside the engine at various RPM using Rhoads Lifters vs. stock lifters:
|Rhoads Lifters
|Stock Lifters
|@ Idle
Stock lifters don't vary the valve timing. Rhoads lifters do. Stock lifters can ''pump up'' at higher engine speed, drastically cutting power. But Rhoads Lifters actually help to eliminate pump up, adding as much as 500 more usable RPM on the top-end. You can even hear Rhoads Lifters work! They make a mild ticking sound at idle, which tells you they're working to boost low-end torque, vacuum and fuel economy. When the size of your cam is ''reduced'' for more low-end torque, the valves seat at a slightly faster rate, producing a mild, solid lifter sound. This sound gradually dissapears as your RPM increases, ''restoring'' your cam to its full size for maximum top-end power.

Vom Camarade Zum Monsieur: Strukturanpassung Und Demokratisierung in Benin
[From 'Camarade' to 'Monsieur': Structural Adjustment and Democratization in Benin]
The process of political and economic liberalisation in Benin is regarded as a model for the whole of Sub-Saharan Africa. Benin made history by becoming the first African country to overthrow a military dictator by democratic means. The civilian coup d'état cleared the way for economic recovery, too. The strengthening of democratic institutions, and the good will of the new government of the former high ranking World Bank-employee Soglo, to follow the recommendations of the structural adjustment program have been honoured by the donors' generosity. The recovery of the economy, however, was hampered by the underlying fabric of the socio-cultural structure of clientelism and patronage, which resulted in a situation in which the on-going structural adjustment program mainly served the vested interests of the state class and rival strategic groups, bargaining for the booty of increasing development assistance. Thus, socio-economic conditions for a self-sustaining development process and, consequently, increased development assistance are not yet met. Nevertheless, areas of co-operation do exist in the fields of liberty of press and opinion, basic needs and self-help organizations.

The brainstorming lab "Sharing knowledge in development organizations: making Communities of Practice work" took place during the European Development Days in Brussels on June 16, 2016.
48 participants from multilateral and bilateral organisations, NGOs, Foundations, Think-Tanks and the private sector came together to come up with concrete ideas, innovative solutions and good practices on the shared challenges faced regarding establishing Communities of Practice (CoP).
Ms. Androulla Kaminara, Head of the KM Task Force at DEVCO, welcomed participants and provided a short contextual introduction in which she raised the following points:
- There are many knowledge sharing challenges in development organisations, such as geographical dispersion, knowledge "silos", lack of knowledge sharing culture and a weak link to the overall organisational strategy
- Communities of Practice (CoP) can be an effective mechanism to address knowledge sharing challenges
- But there are a lot of challenges associated with setting up CoP in development organisations, such as high workload and low prioritization for knowledge sharing, few incentives to share, "Communication apprehension" (i.e. difficulty to ask questions and share in public) and ensuring usefulness of the CoP
- DEVCO as part of its LKDS strategy is also trying to support CoP on its platform Capacity4dev
Following the background introduction, participants discussed the following questions in a World Café format:
- How can you ensure a CoP best responds to practitioners' needs in their daily work? (hosted by Ivan Kulis, ECDPM)
- How do we engage practitioners, including those from the field, in active participation and exchanges of substance? (hosted by Teresa Kerber, GIZ)
- How can we know that our CoP is on the right track and monitor success? (hosted by Pauline Van Norel, MDF)
- What tools can we best use to enable knowledge sharing in CoPs? (hosted by Chris Korakas, DEVCO Unit 06)
During three 20-minute rounds, participants shared their experiences relating to the aforementioned questions. Learn more about the threads emerged from the discussions HERE.
VIDEOS have also been prepared about the brainstorming on each one of the questions addressed.

Can the new google maps export kml?
When I save maps in My Places I often want to then export kml so I can view the map in google earth and look at elevation profiles. But the maps editor has changed since I last got into it and I don't the option to export kml anymore. For that matter, I don't see the option to create a link that will embed the map in a web page, although I can easily modify links I've made in the past to do that effectively.
Anybody know how to get kml for a custom map from the google maps web site?
Do all here instead. New Google is a fix for something that wasn't broken.
After clicking "my places" tab, the list of my saved maps appears. If I select a route from this list by clicking, then route appears, along with a KML link in blue. If I click link then I can download KML data.
If I click on the Edit button at this point the KML link disappears, but if I then click Done it goes back to previous route view, and KML link once again is available. I do not see an "embed" link, and since I never used it I don't recall seeing this link in the past.
I haven't used Google Maps KML export data more than a few times, but in my case it appears to work fine and is not too complicated. Try it again, Walter.

This is my Ride to Vogul route.
I wish I could select Classic google maps but I don't see that anymore either.
I also found Create With Classic Google Maps and tried that. It created a map that was much more like what I've seen in the past (still listed under My Places). But this one too, is missing a link to download kml.
Walter, my screen looks like your 2nd pic, except I have a KML link to the right of "Write a comment".
I'm using Classic GM, and I have the KML link on 1) desktop with Win 2000 Pro OS + obsolete version of Firefox, 2) laptop with Vista OS and latest compatible version of FF and 3) tablet with Android 4.1 and FF app.
BTW, you can select Classic GM if you choose, google for help.
I googled a bit for missing KML link:
Good luck figuring this out.

Follow C295W in Latin America
from November 15th till December 10th
An Airbus C295W aircraft belonging to the Mexican Navy (SEMAR) has begun a tour that will allow it to demonstrate its capabilities in various Latin American countries. The aircraft, which is operated by a mixed crew from Airbus Defence and Space and SEMAR, will travel the length of the continent from north to south.
The tour will expose the C295W to the region's diverse and extreme weather conditions and terrain, demonstrating not only its robustness and reliability but also its versatility - characteristics which have seen it become the market leader in its segment. C295W is the Trusted Partner for Medium Airlift and leader in its category: 163 C295 sold to 23 military operators (11 of them with repeat orders).
17 November 2015
C295W landed at El Alto International Airport, more than 4,000m above sea level, and also performed flights to the Cochabamba base and the unprepared runway of San Borja.
20 November 2015
C295W carried out demonstration flights in El Alto, La Paz, Bolivia, one of the airports with the most extreme hot and high conditions in the world.
21-26 November 2015
The aircraft landed at the International Airport of Santiago de Chile as part of its tour of the region, and is currently performing several demo flights. Chile is one of the main operators of Airbus Defence and Space military transport aircraft in the region, with a fleet of 12 aircraft, including three C295s in the anti-submarine warfare role.
27 November 2015
C295W flew from Río Gallegos Airport in Argentina to the Marambio Base, the first flight ever by a C295 to Antarctica.
The C295W landed in Marambio at 11.45 on 27 November, returning to Río Gallegos nearly eight hours later. The Argentinian Marambio Base, in the Seymour Island in the North of Antarctica, frequently suffers temperatures below -30ºC with extremely strong winds. The flight was further proof of the outstanding versatility of the C295W, which in recent weeks has been subjected to the most diverse weather conditions.
28 November - 2 December 2015
During these days the aircraft performed demonstrations in different locations in Argentina. The evaluation included participation of several members of the Argentine Armed Forces.
3- 5 December 2015
Next stop of the tour: Paraguay. Demonstrations of C295W were made in Asuncion, Paraguay, together with the Paraguayan Air Force.
7- 9 December 2015
C295W landed in Panama on the next leg of its tour of Latin America. Panama has a fleet of three Airbus Defence and Space military transport aircraft.
Following the aircraft's stay in Panama, the tour will shortly conclude in Mexico.
10 December 2015
C295W came back to Mexico completing a month-long tour through Latin America demonstrating the aircraft's extensive capabilities. Mexico, with 24 aircraft – including the new C295W – is the largest operator of Airbus Defence and Space military transport aircraft in Latin America, followed by Colombia and Brazil, with 18 and 12 aircraft respectively.
Information on the tour will be updated on a regular basis, so stay tuned!

Morgan Cole has won damages of £210,000 from its former London landlord Lloyds TSB after suffering years of discomfort and embarrassment over having to continually apologise to clients for its failing air-conditioning system.
The firm resorted to legal action after numerous attempts to resolve the problem with Lloyds TSB concerning its 167 Fleet Street office. The bank recently sold its interest in the building, but was found to have breached its covenant to supply air-conditioning in an efficient manner over the previous six years.
Michael Black QC, presiding in the Technology and Construction Court, found that the system had been defective for a grand total of 1,380 days since Morgan Cole moved into the building in May 1995, amounting to almost four years.
The firm also suffered complaints from staff, and one assistant solicitor cited the problem as one of the reasons behind his decision to leave the firm, the court heard late last month.
Guy Featherstonehaugh of Falcon Chambers for the claimant said that Morgan Cole received complaints from clients that meetings were uncomfortable, the atmosphere was stuffy and the temperature too high in the summer and too low during the winter. The air-conditioning system was frequently noisy, which also disrupted client meetings, and the problems were inconsistent with the professional image that Morgan Cole sought to portray, the court heard. Staff ranging from partners to secretaries gave evidence during the case.
Black found that, although Morgan Cole's evidence was subjective, its complaints were justified in many respects. There was overwhelming evidence that the maintenance regime was poor, despite attempts by Lloyds TSB to overcome the problems.
Morgan Cole property litigator Robin Edwards, who worked on the case with partner Leslie Gascoigne, said: "We tried to resolve the problem without litigation, but in the end we had to issue proceedings; and those proceedings led to a five or six-day trial. You're always reluctant to sue your own landlord. You want to have a happy relationship, not a sour one."
He added: "It was strange taking witness statements from people who are normally the ones to take witness statements from others, and it's strange for people at the firm to give evidence and find themselves in the witness box."
The £210,000 damages award includes interest, and Morgan Cole now awaits a decision on costs. Edwin Johnson of 9 Old Square was instructed by CMS Cameron McKenna for the defendant.
Morgan Cole gets £210K damages from Lloyds TSB

Smells divine. Doesn't do much for my colour treated and heat abused hair. Would be nice for someone with normal hair.

Smells fab, does not doo the job. Nowhere near moisturising enough for my colur treated hair, which felt utterly unconditioned. Would probably be better on those with normal and unabused hair

This is an incredible hair mask that has worked wonders for my hair, and I've only used it twice! Prior to this I've been devoted to the discontinued Skinmarket hair masks, which are really impossible to find now, and I've been searching for something to take its place and do the same job of making my hair soft and healthy while providing a light, yummy scent. Bananarama smells, not surprisingly, like bananas! It also has a bit of a sweet vanilla scent to it, and it's a creamy conditioning formula which, when massaged into my thick hair, really seems to work wonders. I rinsed it out after 15 minutes and was amazed at how manageable and shiny my hair was. The scent lingers for a while and I was pleased that at the end of the day my hair was as soft as it was earlier. My new favorite!

This smells so delicious I wanted to love it but sadly it made my hair very limp, so much that I would not try it again. ;( Fantastic banana scent though.

Smells amazing like banana custard!
A good hairmask. I found that my hair got all tangled up when I used this though. However my hair was really soft and nicely scented afterwards.
I'd reccommend it to anyone that didn't have problems with tangly hair.

Still time to apply for grants
Grants - what you need to know
The SUSI grant is a means-tested financial support for students in higher or further education.
While July 8 was the deadline for applications to receive priority processing, if students have not already applied there is time to do so.
To understand if you are likely to qualify for a grant, students and their parents should check out the eligibility reckoner on susi.ie. This facility asks applicants a number of questions about their personal and financial circumstance and gives an idea about eligibility.
Applicants will be assessed on gross income from all sources for the period January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015. They will be assessed as either a 'Dependant' or 'Independent' applicant. A dependant applicant is assessed on the income of the parents or legal guardian while an independent applicant is assessed on their own income and that of their spouse/civil partner or cohabitant.
The income threshold applied to a household to decide on eligibility differs depending on factors such as the number of children, the number of those children currently attending college and type of courses the applicant intends to pursue, i.e. Post-Leaving Certificate (PLC) or undergraduate degree programme. Income threshold varies from €22,703 to €64,285 (more than eight children with at least one attending third level).
The amount awarded may vary from 100pc maintenance and 100pc student contribution to no maintenance and 50pc student contribution depending on income.
Once an application is successful and SUSI has received all requested information and documentation, maintenance payments will be transferred to the bank account of the applicant in nine monthly instalments while the fee grant will be paid directly to the college or institution.
The first payment for higher education courses will be made September 23, while the first payment for PLC courses will be made on October 21.
Students who are planning to enter a further education (PLC) course should remember that SUSI will not pay the course fee directly to the college. Students should ensure that they pay this fee from their maintenance grant.

Stick Wars is all about fun. These little guys are just funny and there's no two ways about it. It's like watching someone slip on a banana skin or poke a straw up their nose when trying to take drink. You just can't help but laugh.
So as soon as this game starts they've already got your sides splitting when the first little guy runs towards your castle and beats his little stick hands on your walls. It's a great start to a game series that's brought to you by the developers at Stick Page.
At the start of the game you are given your own castle, but wait, It's already under siege! There are armies of savage fighters trying to take your castle and once the outer walls are breached they can't be stopped. Luckily for you, you have the mighty hand on your side and defending against the marauding siege is as simple as flicking the tiny stick men away.
As they attack your castle you simply need to flick them away like a dead fly on a table. Extend your finger into full flick mode and let gravity do all the hard work.
When more attackers advance it soon becomes clear that you need to become a master flicker to shake off the waves of attackers and keep your walls strong and standing.
Battle away to earn game points and soon you will be able to afford a few upgrades and suddenly the game takes a more entertaining twist. It will take some effort to get there but with perseverance you can get the job done.
You can build a prison to keep your POW's in and all you need to do is drop them in there. Once you have them captive you can arm them with bomb vests and send them back to their legions to destroy their unwitting counterparts.
You can also deploy maintenance teams to repair any damage that has been inflicted on your walls by the enemy's battering rams. There are also archers and wizards on your side to give you that full medieval battle experience.
This game series is all about fun and if you enjoyed the first instalment then you should definitely check out the latest addition Stick War 2: Order Empire!

Project Detail
Stars Rooftop & Grill Room is the recipient of many national accolades, including being named one of America's coolest rooftop bars by Travel + Leisure Magazine. The roof top has 360-degree views of downtown Charleston and is surrounded by sea grass planters filled with fresh herbs and a reclaimed Tigerwood bar.
Quality Electric of the Coastal Carolinas, Inc. served as the general contractor for the building's renovation in 2012. On the rooftop, crews installed pendant fixtures, emergency lights and low-voltage lighting in planters.
What made this project unique
Working at a rooftop bar presents it's own unique challenges.
It required close coordination and planning with other trades such as roofer, carpentry and landscapers. The low voltage drivers for the LV in the planters had to be mounted in the ceiling of the second floor which meant the wiring had to penetrate the roof and be properly sealed from the weather.
