Begin at the Beginning/Middle/End
A mostly irrelevant quote, courtesy of Lewis Carroll- I just can't help it! Anyhow...
I apologize for my extended absence; again, school has taken more than its share of my time. I'm currently preparing to play the Baker in our choir's production of Into The Woods (certainly one of my favorite musicals- I love fairy tales, and Into The Woods is quite the creative fusion of several popular fairy tales, courtesy of Stephen Sondheim). However, though the blog has suffered, I am past my writer's block (thank goodness), having written a few sonnets this past month. Anyhow, enough about me-
A brief first point- Dan Schneider notes two distinctly different types of writers- sculptors and builders. A sculptor writes to excess about an idea, then chips away at their piece, removing or reworking unnecessary or ineffective portions until the final form is reached. A builder writes more carefully from the get-go, often making changes during the creation of the first draft, and is left with very little excess to trim once the piece reaches its completion. Neither is better- the two are simply different. As a point of curiosity, I am a builder.
We've now established that there are two types of writers. Now, a second point- a work of art begins with an idea. What a remarkably dumb and obvious thing to say, Neil! True. But, where do you place the idea? A piece can start from any point- a standard A-B-C progression isn't the only way to go. Let's narrow the scope and look at poetry, for two reasons: firstly, I know more about poetry than I do about other art forms, and secondly, poetry is written (abstract building blocks are easier to shuffle around), and it's also tighter and (generally) shorter than prose.
Just as there are different types of writers, there are different ways to begin a poem. The first fragment of a poem isn't necessarily the first line; a great idea for an ending or middle line or couplet also makes for a fine starting point. A C-A-B or B-C-A progression in the creation of a poem is just as good as an A-B-C progression; our job as writers is, after all, to rearrange letters of the alphabet ~_^ While I certainly can't pick out the original fragment of another person's poem, I posit that different writers have a tendency to start in different places. I tend towards coming up with end lines or couplets, then starting from the top, with the final phrase already in place. Occasionally, the original phrase doesn't even survive; the entire poem at its completion may even have a completely different meaning than initially intended. However, that's where my starting point usually lies, and the most difficult part of writing a poem, at least for me, is beginning. Once I have something to work off of, the task is much less daunting.
The differences in approach that are imperceptible to the audience contribute to the uniqueness of a quality writer's work. I'm going to leave off with that statement, with every intention of elaborating in my next post. Take care 'til next,

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Scotland among the Pictish clans. The Kinwie family lived in the parish of Kennoway in the county of Fife. The surname Kinwie belongs to the category of habitation names, which are derived from pre-existing names for towns, villages, parishes, or farmsteads.
Kinwie Early Origins
Fife, where they held a family seat from very early times.
Kinwie Spelling Variations
Kinwie Spelling Variations
Translation has done much to alter the appearance of many Scottish names. It was a haphazard process that lacked a basic system of rules. Spelling variations were a common result of this process. Kinwie has appeared Kennaway, Kennoway, Kenaway, Kenneway, Kenoway and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Many Scots left their country to travel to the North American colonies in search of the freedom they could not find at home. Of those who survived the difficult voyage, many found the freedom they so desired. There they could choose their own beliefs and allegiances. Some became United Empire Loyalists and others fought in the American War of Independence. The Clan societies and highland games that have sprung up in the last century have allowed many of these disparate Scots to recover their collective national identity. A search of immigration and passenger ship lists revealed many early settlers bearing the Kinwie name: members of the family who migrated to the New World and contributed to the development of North American society.

Hello everyone! I hope you had a good weekend. We visited a couple of beaches for my next travel post on the best beaches to visit when visiting Vancouver (I love my job!). That post should be on the blog by the end of the week.
A meal plan is a great way to save money at the grocery store and solves the daily question "what's for dinner?" It also save loads of time in the evenings after work. My favourite part. I use a Google spread sheet for my menu plans, but you can use whatever you feel comfortable with or what works for you – a simple notebook, a scrap of paper tacked to the fridge, or you can find some meal-planning notebooks here.
If you're new to meal planning, check out my post as to how to get started, here, and if you would like to see some of the previous weeks' dinner plans, click here.
This week, we're having some old favourites as well as some new recipes from theskinnytaste.com and mediterraneandish.com, and a lovely Prawn Coconut Curry broth and rice from The Looneyspoons Collection . I LOVE this book and, amazingly enough, I've made almost every recipe of theirs. It's also geared for weight loss.
Here's this week's meal plan:
Monday: Crockpot Picadillo with rice (Skinny Taste)
Tuesday: Kenyan Braised Collard Greens & Ground Beef, Sweet Potatoes (Skinny Taste)
Wednesday: Mediterranean Pan-Seared Trout w/Tzaziki (Mediterranean Dish), Asparagus, (The Best!) Greek Salad (Looney Spoons)
Thursday: Simple Mediterranean Olive Oil Pasta (Mediterranean Dish), Garlic Bread, Green Salad.
Friday: Prawns in Coconut Curry Broth (Looney Spoons), Rice
Saturday: Grilled Rosemary Lamb Chops (on the barbecue!) (Skinny Taste), Salads (Looney Spoons)
Sunday: Garlic Rosemary Chicken with Cranberries (Mediterranean Dish), Roasted Potatoes, Beans, Carrots.

Yesterday afternoon at La Morada in Mott Haven, settling back after my mole verde, I watched as the waitress delivered a pair of pambazos to a neighboring table. Maybe I'd just never noticed before, but I was struck by their resemblance to tortas ahogadas, Mexican sandwiches that are "drowned" in sauce. Apart from La Morada, where I plan to return soon, who else makes a good pambazo?

Cabinet: No Special Treatment for Four Tallinn Schools ({{commentsTotal}})
In a repeat of a similar decision, the Cabinet today decided not to grant four secondary schools the right to continue teaching more than 40 percent in Russian at the taxpayers' expense.
It said there were no real obstacles keeping the the four Tallinn schools from switching at least partially to Estonian in grades 10-12. By law, public schools at the upper secondary level are required to teach at least 60 percent of subjects in Estonian.
Tallinn City Council had petitioned the government to allow a city center gymnasium, the Russian Lyceum, the Tõnismäe Science School and Haabersti Russian Upper Secondary School to continue to use Russian as the language of instruction.
It put in a similar petition two years ago, the year that schools were expected to make the transition. On that occasion, the Haabersti Russian Upper Secondary School was denied an exception.
Three of the four schools have received close to 100,000 in special funding to help them make the transition to the language requirements, out of a total of 371,014 euros allocated by the Education Ministry to the Tallinn Education Department.

My Motorcycle romance
The decision to purchase a motorcycle is always one which is very personal, passionate, bordering sometimes on the irrational. I am no exception to this rule and after much research and a little prodding by my wife, I finally settled on a bike which I knew in my heart that I had already decided upon..A Bullet.
I purchased, what is probably the last piece in Bangalore, a bullet Machismo 500 AVL on the 18th March, 2010. Though I had a very small waiting period (By RE standards) of 15 days, the wait was, to the least very agonizing. The bike began to occupy my thoughts in every living and conscious moment bordering on jealousy from my wife! I started to research in dept about bullets and was in trepidation on the eve of my delivery. After a sleepless night, I finally went to the Brand store showroom in Jayanagar. The helpful folks had already kept all documents in place and the bike was delivered without much ado.
I took the chrome monster to my home and though the friendship between us was yet to blossom, we were already like a new couple, touching and holding hands.
The first time I took my Bike on my highway, I was adorned with a pair of jeans, a nice white cotton T-shirt, a Cross Helmet (which I purchased on lalbagh Road)and lots of excitement. To say the very least it was pure, unadulterated, Pleasure:-)
The bike kept on asking me, pushing me, daring me to go fast. It is really very difficult to ride it under 50KMPH as prescribed for the run-in by the company.
However I let good sense prevail and was well within my prescribed speed limit for the entire journey.
I started off from my house in Vijayanagar onto Mysore road early in the morning by around 6:30AM on a sunday morning. The cool weather, smell of fresh leaves and flowers, the beautiful view of the early morning sun from the Bangalore University Campus all added to the already simmering romanticism.
I completed 100 Kms on a single day and was still wanting to go more.

A.N.: I wrote this a few months ago and forgot to post it. Oops. For all those who are waiting for updates on my other stories, sorry that I haven't gotten to them. I haven't had the motivation really and RL is rather busy. I will try to get something posted during Thanksgiving but I won't make any promises.
If you asked anyone in the Wizarding World who Severus Snape was, many would describe him as a dour, snarky man; a man who was known as a former Death Eater and spy for the Order of the Phoenix. He would be described as a person who would forever be alone and absolutely hates children.
Well, that is how someone would have described him before the Final Battle, which took place three months ago. It had been three months since Harry Potter defeated the evil Lord Voldemort. It had been three months since everyone watched the Boy-Who-Kept-Living almost die in the fight to kill Voldemort. It was three months ago that everyone saw a sight they never thought they'd ever see in their life: Severus Snape crying over a body, Harry Potter's to be exact.
What many didn't know is Severus and Harry had become very close since the beginning of Harry's second year at Hogwarts. Severus had noticed that Harry was thinner when he came back for his second year than when he left at the end of his first. Severus confronted Harry when he caught Harry stealing potions from him the first night back. He had seen the wounds that were all over Harry and though it took some convincing, Harry told him the full story of what happened to him during the summer. To say that Severus was not happy would be an understatement. That night, Severus promised to protect Harry and give him the life he deserved. By Christmas of that year, Severus had adopted Harry as his own and loved him like a son.
Due to exhaustion and depletion of his magical core, Harry had been unconscious for about a week. During that entire week, Severus never left his side. He had to make sure his son would be alright, despite Madam Pomfrey's assurance that he would be fine. It wasn't until Harry woke and assured his dad himself that he was fine that Severus finally left Harry's side.
The three months since then had been chaotic to say the least. The clean-up from the Battle had taken weeks, as did the rebuilding of the Castle. The Ministry had needed restructuring, which had just been completed within the past week or so. Kingsley Shacklebolt had been elected as the new Minister of Magic and was working on getting the Ministry back to the way it should be.
This brings us to today; the day before all the students would be returning to Hogwarts. Severus Snape was sitting in his office, the office of the Headmaster of Hogwarts, working on some last minute paperwork. He knew it was getting late and that he should probably just put off the rest of his work until tomorrow. His wife wouldn't be happy if he was late, actually, she would be furious. Tonight was the last family meal before the year would start. Harry was starting his final year of Hogwarts and therefore would not have much time for family dinners.
With a sigh, Severus decided to leave the rest of his work for the morning, knowing he would have enough time to finish it before the students arrived. He got up from his desk and walked down to his quarters in the dungeons.
He gave the password to the portrait guarding his quarters and walked in. There was no one in the living room, but from the smells coming from the kitchen he knew his wife was in there making dinner. Samantha was a half-blood, like him, and liked to do things around the house the muggle way. He didn't mind too much as Sam was a great cook.
"Smells good," he said as he walked into the kitchen.
"I hope so. Is everything set for the student's return tomorrow?" She leaned up and gave him a kiss when he reached her.
"Everything's ready. I just have some last minute paperwork to finish in the morning but that's it."
"Excellent. Where's Harry? He left early this morning and hasn't come back since."
"He's with Draco. Draco wanted to take him out to lunch or something like that. You know how those two are; they never want to be apart from each other more than they have to be."
Samantha laughed at her husband's statement, remembering when Harry and Draco began their relationship. Both were scared about telling their parents that they were gay. Draco was scared Lucius wouldn't like his only heir dating another male instead of a pure-blood female. The Malfoys surprised Draco when they not only did not care that their son was gay, but they were more than happy with his choice in a boyfriend. Severus and Samantha had not only known their son was gay but were more than happy with his choice in men.
"Yes, I suppose they are rather inseparable aren't they. Well I hope he gets home soon because dinner is almost done."
As if on cue, Harry came stumbling out of the Floo. Despite using the form of wizarding transportation since he had been adopted, Harry still fell every time he used the Floo.
"Hi Dad, Mum. Mhmm. Something smells good."
"Your father said the same thing when he got home." Samantha knew her boys loved her cooking, but it made her smile every time she got praised for it.
"Well, it does smell good. When can we eat? I'm starving and also have something to tell you."
"Didn't you go out with Draco? I thought he was taking you out to lunch or something."
Harry couldn't help but smile at the thought of his lunch with Draco. They had gone out to Harry's favorite restaurant in Muggle London. It was really romantic and Harry had loved the day so much. "Well yeah but I'm hungry again."
"Dinner should be about done if you guys want to set the table."
"Sure, Mum."
Harry and Severus set the table while Sam checked on dinner. Seeing it was done, she set it on the table and sat in her seat. The three Snapes made their plates and ate, each enjoying the wonderful dinner.
"So Harry," Severus started, "you said you had something to tell us, correct?" Harry nodded. "Well your mother and I have news of our own to share. Who should go first?"
"Um…I'll go first. Dad, Mum, what I want to tell you is…well you see…I…"
A.N.: Please leave a review. I wrote this for a Cliffhanger Challenge but if there is anyone who wishes for there to be one more chapter that closes this, I might consider writing it.

Break up is the most painful situation of a relationship, because it represents the loss, not just of the relationship, but also of shared dreams and commitments. Romantic relationships begin on a high note of excitement and hope for the future. When these relationships fail, we experience profound disappointment, stress, and grief.
Breakups can be so rough, and they can be amicable; no matter what, no one really wants to go through them. The loss of your relationship can bring on intense heartache and stress.

London: Former Zimbabwe skipper Heath Streak has demanded all international teams stay away from the strife-torn African nation until a solution is found to the bitter civil war which has left the countrys cricket in turmoil.
Streaks sacking as captain two months ago by the Zimbabwe Cricket Union (ZCU) led to a boycott by 15 white players who have since refused to play for their national side and have been sacked.
As a result, Zimbabwe were crushed by Sri Lanka 0-2 in the recent Test series and 0-5 in the one-dayers which, in turn, led to the postponement of the Test series between the home side and Australia which had been due to start in Harare on Saturday.
Cricket Australia (CA) chief James Sutherland also said that they will push for Zimbabwe to be stripped of the Test status in the ICC meeting next month.
England are scheduled to tour Zimbabwe later this year.
If England were to come it would suggest they agree with what is going on in Zimbabwe, Streak said. I dont think any country should be coming to play cricket in Zimbabwe until they have fixed the problem, whether it be England, Australia or Bangladesh.
The impasse between the rebels and the ZCU was created after the players demanded widespread changes to the way the game is run in Zimbabwe.
The straw that broke the camels back was during the Bangladesh series when one of the directors reconvened the selection panel and ordered them to re-select the side, Streak claimed.
This re-selection was ordered on racial grounds. He wanted more black players and this was quite a worrying fact compounded by the fact that another director offered to pay a double match fee for a white guy to sit out a match for a black guy, which coach Geoff Marsh and I refused to be involved in, Streak said.
And one of the provincial organisations, Mashonaland, basically held the ZCU to ransom and told them if they did not change the racial make-up of the team they would boycott, stage a pitch invasion and possibly dig up the wicket.
It was also claimed that some of the young black players, already in the national side, were against selection on non-merit basis, which included the replacement of Streak with 20-year-old Tatenda Taibu as leader, but were threatened if they made a stand.
We are working to eradicate racism and any ethnic cleansing there is in any community whatsoever, said Streak. We want to play in an environment that is fair to everyone irrespective of who they are and what colour they are. I think all the stakeholders in Zimbabwean cricket just want the best 11 cricketers on the field.
What is sad for me, though, is they are risking the futures of all the young black and white players they will miss out playing international cricket because of poor administration and policies. (AFP)

By Ariana Eunjung Cha
Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, May 1, 2005; Page A01
NOVATO, Calif. -- The young woman at the other end of the phone wept to Kelly Chessen that the world was against her. She had been in a minor car accident. A thief had stolen some things from her house. And now this: The family's computer, which contained her husband's business files, was dead.
Chessen, a crisis counselor who answered the hotline, soothingly assured the caller that such things happen to everyone, that it was no one's fault, that her luck would turn around. It wasn't until 20 minutes into the conversation that Chessen began to address the cause of the young woman's agony.
Send us the machine, Chessen said, and we'll do everything we can to help.
Chessen, who once was a manager for a suicide prevention hotline, now works in customer service for DriveSavers Data Recovery Inc. "This is a lot like my old job," she said. "Oftentimes the most helpful thing we can do is just to listen and to let people get whatever they are feeling off their chests."
Technology has become a bane of modern life. People juggle a mountain of electronic equipment to store their most important records and intimate secrets. But the complicated nature of their machines, with their manuals full with unintelligible acronyms, tangles of cords and invisible wireless signals, means a breakdown is almost inevitable. The loss of a computer, cell phone or other gadget can be so jolting that it is fueling the rise of what some psychologists call "computer rage."
The phenomenon is transforming the nature of technology service, an industry long infamous for being impersonal.
Business is booming for companies with names like Rent-a-Geek, Geeks on Call and Geek Squad that make house calls to fix computers. Television technicians, once near extinction, are again driving to homes to adjust complicated settings on high-definition sets and hook them up to multi-component home-entertainment systems. Some of the world's largest computer makers train their support personnel as much about customers' delicate psyches as they do about technical matters.
"There's this frustration that you are really dependent on these things that you don't understand and that you have no idea how to fix," said Kent L. Norman, a researcher at the University of Maryland's Laboratory for Automation Psychology and Decision Processes. "We place so much trust in computers that it gets a little scary."
No one is immune. No device is exempt. Online message boards are filled with rants about iPods -- sold by the millions on the idea that they are easy to use -- freezing up, and $50,000 luxury cars with windows that roll up and down on their own at random times.
The recounting of one's personal technological Armageddon is often desperate and emotional. A recent survey by Norman found that as many as one out of 10 users have hit, kicked or otherwise abused their equipment.

Kharkiv - Pushkinska Street (Part 1)
Kharkiv Travel Blog› entry 26 of 33 › view all entries
Starting from Constitution (former Nickolayevska) Square there runs Pushkinska Street, stretching five kilometers along the edge of the hill plateau.
The street appeared in the early 1800s, after the City Hall reserved this area for the settlement of foreign professionals invited to Kharkiv by the founder of the university V. Karazin. Those were
In the second half of the 1800s, due to the foundation of the Technological University (now the National Technological University «KhPI») on the eastern slope of the plateau, intensive construction started in the vicinity of the street up to Basseyna (now Petrovskoho) Street.
The bulk of the street's buildings, constructed mostly in the late 1800s and early 1900s, represent residential houses, as well as academic, research and medicine institutions. There are 25 listed monuments of architecture, but there are many more worth of having a look at.
Pushkinska Street has always been an important transport thoroughfare.
The street's architectural face is not homogenous, because mostly private houses used to be built here. Buildings ranging from one to six stories are mostly aligned along the street's edge. The architectural variety and the relative narrowness of the street make it picturesque and original. These are the characteristic features of other streets of the area, too.
The library has been visited by famous writers, poets, and composers.
Now V. Korolenko Kharkiv State Scientific Library has about 7 mln volumes in the stock.
The composition of the symmetric front of the house blends together Classicical and Modernist style elements. The front features risaltoes with faceted protruding windows shifted to the centre. Between the risaltoes on the first floor there is a loggia enclosed by small twin columns.
This was the first house where the transformation of flat internal emplacement by virtue of sliding partitions was applied.
The choral synagogue, which is the only preserved Jewish Temple out of the four earlier existing ones, is conspicuous by its peculiar architectural forms.
The religious building, executed with the elements of Oriental architecture and Romanesque forms, was built in 1914 after the design project of a Petersburg architect Ya. Gevirtz. Covered with Chile copper, the conical dome of this largest in Europe synagogue towers for more than 30 meters over the historical downtown. Due to its location on the summit of the steep slope running to the Kharkiv river, as well as its dimensions, the synagogue occupies a significant place in the eastward panorama.
In the course of conceiving the building the architect obtained advice from the physicians and experts to rationally arrange various laboratories, rooms, as well as library premises, the bacteriological museum,
From the oval entrance hall the entrance itself leads to the front stairs. The main working premises were arranged by the architect along the corridors and the galleries round the patio. The
The interior of the building is very beautiful, in particular the aula with the artist M. Pestrikov's murals.

Mouse in a train
I am lucky enough to have plenty of siblings and they have provided me with lots of nieces and nephews to make cards for. Their ages range from 3 to 28, so I expect it won't be too long before I may have some great nephews/nieces too. This card is for my current youngest nephew... and I use the term 'current youngest' with some insider knowledge ......
This digistamp of a mouse in a train is from Sweet and Sassy stamps and was part of a prize I won in a challenge. The papers were freebies with a magazine, years ago. I printed the stamp onto white card and coloured in the windows etc. I printed the train onto stripy paper and cut out and stuck it. I cut the mouse and wheels again, coloured them in and layered with dimensional sticky things. I die cut a star out of chipboard, coveed it with the stripy paper and used a number sticker.
I'd like to enter this for the following challenges:

Limited Access to network
I'm writing today because recently I've been getting the issue of the "Limited Access" when it comes to connecting to the internet at my school. I know it's something wrong with my laptop because every single person that is in the same area as me is receiving internet just fine, for some reason it's only me. At home I connect to my router with no problem it's only in school. Sometimes it does actually connect but when I come back the next day it's back to "Limited Access". I usually just restart my network adapter and at times I re-install my wireless card. I obviously cannot access the router so I would appreciate if someone can give me a solution in which I would not have to. Been searching all over the internet for a solution but most of them just say to access the router and input some stuff...Please help. Thanks!
Oh and I'm running Windows 7 x64

Welcome to SevenForums.
When you see that "limited access", if you just wait, does it go away and give you a connection.
Is this a brand new problem with this computer?
Are you in an area where there is a Starbucks or even a beer joint that has wifi (you would be surprised how many do.)?
If yes, than go there and see if you can connect.
Need your specs before continuing.

LibMCore is a library that provides some functions to create asynchronous or synchronous lightweight process and generic queue processing. Some other basic functions are also available to count core number, to enable the real-time scheduler, to set core affinity, or to manipulate cycle counters.
Release Notes: This is the first public version. There's also some code cleanup, some warning fixes, and headers have been restructured.
LibDebug is a library that, on signal catch, will display a lot of useful debugging information depending on the environment variable DEBUG_.
Release Notes: This is the first public release. There's also some cleanup of debugging information.
LibCycle is a library that helps to estimate the number of CPU cycles consumed per function.
Release Notes: This release is the first public version. There's also some adaptation for the x64 architecture, and an internal implementation of sqrt to remove a dependency on the math library.
Andrisoft WANSIGHT is a fully featured network traffic analyzer and collector. It provides in-depth traffic analysis, traffic accounting, and bandwidth monitoring, and enables you to generate complex traffic reports, graphs, and tops, instantly pin down the cause of network incidents, understand patterns in application performance, and make the right capacity planning decisions. It supports 10GbE packet sniffing and NetFlow, sFlow, and IPFIX.
Release Notes: Full IPv6 support for the Sensors. The Packet Analyzer has been extended with auto-stop functions. The Sniffing Sensor can use native PF_RING functions. Graphing IP sweeps can be disabled. New decoders have been added: Flows (Flow Sensor only), SSH, Youtube, NetFlix, and Hulu.
aime is a simple, C-like programming language and an interpreter, both designed to be embeddable in applications. The language is straightforward, trivial, and direct. Its syntax is simpler than that of C, while still providing for full object management, higher order functions, and references. The interpreter is secure and expressive, allowing comprehensive control over program execution and providing powerful methods of application integration.
Release Notes: An aime language manual is added. The GPL version is fixed; it is now 3 for all source files. The list and byte array libraries are expanded. Right to left associativity is fixed for all assignment operators. Several uninitialized variable bugs are fixed.
ImdbPHP provides an API to the movie information stored at the IMDb.com site. As this and the name suggests, it is primarily targeted at PHP programmers who want to extend their programs or their site with this movie information. The classes must be used in accordance with IMDb's copyright and conditions of use.
Release Notes: Moviepilot code was removed, as the API is no longer supported by Moviepilot. Configuration should now be more user-friendly, as *.ini files can be used; tampering with the IMDBPHP code itself is no longer necessary. A few other minor improvements and code cleanups were accomplished.
Domination is a game that is a bit like the well known board game of Risk. It has many features, including network play, many maps, a map editor, and many more features.
Release Notes: An annihilate button has been added to the attack screen. Czech and Slovak language support has been added. Apple Mac retina screen support has been added.

Many bugfixes and speed optimizations. Basic script support (using the embedded DWS engine) has been added. An actConvertTabsToSpacesInSelection action has been added. This release has localization support.
FeResPost is a library that allows the rapid development of small programs for the post-processing of Nastran or Samcef finite element results. The library allows easy manipulation of finite element models, groups, and results. Efficient post-processing is possible because the time-consuming operations are written in C/C++. The library is distributed as a COM component, a .NET assembly, as well as a Ruby compiled extension.
Release Notes: Correction of a bug in the reading of Nastran BDF files (some real values were not read). Addition of methods for the conversion of Result layer ID, and the conversion of vectors in COM component. Modification of "postXdbRandom.xls" and "postDesFacRandom.xls" examples.
Lbzip2 is a parallel, SMP-based, bzip2-compatible compression utility, with a commandline resembling that of the original bzip2. It is usable both on its own and as a filter passed to GNU tar with the "--use-compress-program" option. It uses Gnulib, and its building and testing process is managed by the GNU build system. Starting with release 2.0, lbzip2 is independent of libbz2 and features yambi, an independent BWT compression stack with improved speed and robustness.
Release Notes: This release adds a new feature: When decompressing with both --force and --stdout options given, lbzip2 will copy files which are not in bzip2 format, instead of reporting an invalid file format. This release also fixes several minor bugs.
DiskScan scans the entire surface of a disk, alerts when a sector is unreadable, and uses the read timing to warn when a sector is having problems. It will tell when a disk has failed and already has bad sectors and also when the disk is near failure and takes too long to read the data.
Release Notes: This release adds a manpage and an install target.
NFO Viewer is a simple viewer for NFO files, which are "ASCII" art in the CP437 codepage. The advantages of using NFO Viewer instead of a text editor are preset font and encoding settings, automatic window size, and clickable hyperlinks.
Release Notes: This release adds minor bugfixes and translation updates.
Gaupol is an editor for text-based subtitle files. It supports multiple subtitle file formats and provides means of creating subtitles, editing text, and timing subtitles to match video. The user interface is designed with attention to batch processing of multiple documents and convenience of translating.
Release Notes: This release adds minor bugfixes and translation updates.
Fix8 is a modern open source C++ FIX framework featuring complete schema driven customisation, high performance, and fast application development. The system is comprised of a compiler for generating C++ message and field encoders, decoders, and instantiation tables, a runtime library to support the generated code and framework, and a set of complete client/server test applications. For the same message, Fix8 encodes 3.2 times faster and decodes 2.3 times faster than Quickfix, an average of 2.7 times. In other words, it reduces encode latency by 69% and reduces decode latency by 56%.
Release Notes: A lot of work has gone into this release. Decode latency has been reduced by a further 20%. In a side by side shootout with Quickfix, Fix8 now comes in under 5us for a NewOrderSingle.
Zip-Ada is an Ada library for .zip archives. Its sources are unconditionally portable. Input and output can be any stream (such as a file or buffer) for archive creation as well as data extraction. It is task safe and endian-neutral.
Release Notes: UnZip.Streams can extract data to input, but also (new) to output streams, without decompressing the entirety of the data in memory. Zip.Traverse_Unicode has been added for unambiguous Unicode name decoding.
F-IRC is an IRC client for the console. It supports multiple servers, scrollback, and all the basic features one can expect from an IRC client.
Release Notes: Colors finally fixed. Stability fixes. Can now automatically log parts of chats to a file, selecting them with regular expressions. Can now get colors per nick (default disabled).
bystroTeX is a slideshow system oriented towards scientific presentations. It is especially useful for giving formula-heavy technical talks. It uses Scribble (the Racket documentation system) to generate HTML slides with LaTeX formulae.
Release Notes: Support for multiline formulas with new syntax form @align. Corrections in syntax forms @spn and @div; a new syntax form @tg. New feature: counters (for exercises, theorems etc.). Various improvements and bugfixes. Old slides should compile with corrections in headers.
WeatherLog is an application for keeping track of the weather and getting information about past trends.
Release Notes: This release adds a feature for exporting the data from the Info windows, adds more commandline arguments, and updates the help, in addition to many smaller changes and bugfixes.
TOMUSS allows multiple users to edit the same spreadsheet table with their Web browsers. It stores the complete history of the table modification. TOMUSS is intended to be used by teachers to enter ranking and to allow students to see their ranks.
Release Notes: This release fixes some serious bugs: the current cell was not saved when scrolling with the mouse, and the table editor was broken on Internet Explorer. An experimental OpenID authenticator has been implemented.
Excel Writer is a package for easily writing Excel files with basic formatting. It allows for the automatic production of reports. It uses totally portable code that builds for every system without any specific piece of code. It does not interact with Excel.
Release Notes: Horizontal and vertical jumps within the virtual spreadsheet have been added.
Inkscape is a drawing tool with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, and CorelDraw that uses the W3C standard scalable vector graphics format (SVG). The supported SVG features include basic shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms, gradients, and grouping. In addition, it supports Creative Commons meta-data, node-editing, layers, complex path operations, text-on-path, and SVG XML editing. It also imports several formats like EPS, Postscript, JPEG, PNG, BMP, and TIFF and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based formats.
Release Notes: A security bug was fixed. Some major bugs causing crashes when using extensions or the filters editor were fixed. A bug affecting the outline mode was fixed. Inkscape can now be built on platforms with new versions of the Poppler library (0.20 and higher). Relative path names can be used again on the commandline for EPS/PS and other file types handled by script extensions. Basque, Belarusian, French, anUkrainian UI translations have been updated.

GamesRadar - Like comic books and science fiction, video games attract some of the most devoted fans in all the world. Often that commitment to a series is endearing and can be the start of mainstream success; Call of Duty wouldn't be as big as it is without hardcore fans passing it along to their friends. But just because a publisher has diehard fans doesn't mean companies should always listen to them.
I agree, All Stars gameplay was way too similar to Smash and just less fun and engaging.

Tent images 'did not lie'
Thermal images used by The Times to back claims that 90 per cent of the tents at St Paul's were unoccupied at night were not flawed, the head of the company that took them said.
Richard Wallace, managing director of Thermal Imaging, was responding to a YouTube video in which protesters claimed that the camera used could not detect body heat in tents. The video shows protesters — lit up in orange because of their body heat — entering a tent and apparently "disappearing" behind the fabric, which shows blue because it is cold, then emerging seconds later. In one scene, six people emerge from the same dark blue tent.
Mr Wallace said they had not been inside long enough for their body heat to…

Here are 6 fresh new posters for Suriya's upcoming big flick 7aam Arivu. Each of these posters is kind of an 7aam Arivu scene-revealer, as they showcase different situations from the movie itself. It looks like the 7aam Arivu teams have saved their gorgeous lady Shruti Haasan for the movie screens as she is seen in only 2 of the posters, out of a total 6, with namma Suriya doing most of the talking.
The very first one of them "Innum Enna Thozha" quite rightly depicts the rushing disturbance of the Eelam Tamil issue as Suriya holds his looks upright n determined. The song "Innum Enna Thozha" is a special one for 7aam Arivu composer Harris Jayaraj who dedicated the number to the cause of breaking violence in the southern tip. Time to say goodbye to war and fall in love once again with the second poster.As you all guessed, it presents a scene from the soulful number "Mun Andhi". Shruti is looking every bit a mermaid and Suriya gazes to the golden suns and thanks the Gods for gifting him with someone so special.
Time to pump up things, as we see a nice shot from "Oh Ringa Ringa" which had folks at the Ranganathan street surprised during the shoots with the place being invaded by a 1000 hip dancers who shook scooters and autos off their feet. As the dance beats fade away we see Damo rising with a Chinese kid running freely across the corn-fields, as Suriya's monk clad appearance behind her throws in some warmth. Now when everything was going good, Suriya settles down to think of his past and his lost train ticket at the railway tracks, totally motionless. (As if photos could move…where are we Hogwarts?) But how can namma Suriya leave us all sad and gloomy this Diwali, he soon jumps up and breaks into full swing with "Yellae lama" breaking through your speakers – out and wild.
Enjoy the posters and let us know what you felt…in the comments section below…
Keep it healthy !!! Keep it Clean Kollytalkers !!!

This looks cool.
I hate the 20 characters thing though.
The 20 character minimum is to encourage people to add a meaningful reply to the discussion. I can adjust the limit, but I want to try most of the default settings for a while and see how it goes. The developers of this software put a lot of thought into everything.
Kinda weird to compare the two, but it's pretty nice that you can always see the most recently updated topics on any subject first. I did get confused with the deck lists lol.
Is there any way to exclude a particular tag, so you can display only the categories you want at the same time?
This page has a more conventional display with categories:
I still need to do some work on the categories (I think I made them too confusing), but as content is posted we'll get it sorted accordingly and figure out what category terms are needed. I sort of like the display with latest topics though since we don't have that many people actively commenting usually. I think it'll help get more people engaged. It's different, but I think it'll work.
I'm dumping all my old deck lists on here so there is at least some content to start with and it isn't completely empty.
E-mails are sent by default? Not amused by that I'm happy that this is much more phone friendly though.
Hah, well if they were off by default then very few people would probably
realize there was the option to turn them on. You can also reply via email
which is neat.
hi! i got a question: where is my post about charizard deck list? i can't find it, and of corse, neighter my other posts, so… how is this work? i don't know where can i find them. Help please. Thanks
You are probably looking for the old forums: http://www.sixprizes.com/forums/
Hey, I've been on this website forever, but the picture I want to upload (the same shiny Giratina that I had before) will not upload because the site says I am a "New User" and "New Users can't upload pictures." Can you change that?
Can you try uploading again? Someone else got this bug too and I just tried adjusting one setting. Let me know if it's fixed, otherwise there is one other thing I can try.
EDIT: Should be fixed. I created a dummy account and was able to reproduce the error then eliminate it.
what about UG articles??? i dont see many article disucssion stuff on here
I can't import the old posts, but UG article discussion will be here from now on.
sweet, yeah like i havent seen like stuff on the more recent articles
also, how do you message certain people, i havent found how to do that
Click on anyone's username and a private message option will come up.
lol i talk to the UG writers a good bit. but there is no good UG content on here yet so
Ok, the picture problem is fixed. (see? Now my avatar = Shiny Giratina!)
so this is the new 6p? is the old 6p obsolete?

Future World Music: Behold
Following Reign Of Vengeance and A Hero Will Rise, Behold is Future World Music's third public album.
Memorable tracks from various industry releases, including Millennium, were included in this new compilation, such as the heroic "Water, Earth and Fire", the romantic "Eternal Love", the heart-rending "The Big Reveal", the driving "Rapturous Moves", or the magical "Odyssey"…
Behold will offer you nearly an hour and a half of unadultered epic and emotional music, perfect to start 2014!
One response to "Future World Music: Behold"
Love it how they mixed in old tracks that were industry releases. I've been waiting for them to release a new album; finally it has arrived! RoV was one of the first albums that got me hooked to the epic genre, so I'm always on the hunt for their latest work.

Discontinued App
Entertainment | iPhone, iPad
Role playing | Android
Educational | iPhone, iPad
The native Russian film with English subtitles. The best tuition for those who study modern Russian language and culture. «Gop-Stop» is a film for those who want to see what Russia is really like. Another film of Paul Bardeen, a director of the «Russia 88» (that film was not showing in cinemas). «Gop-Stop» is folk comedy, in which clumsy provincial men and a Ukrainian prostitute come out to fight the villain mayor and his imbecile half- witted son. Released: 2010 Country: Russia Genre: Comedy Directed by: Pavel Bardeen Producers: Sergei Livnev, George Malkov, Dmitry Zakharov Cast: Peter Fedorov, Alexander Golubkov, Marina Oryol Time: 97 minutes Category: 14 + «Gop-Stop» is a buffoonery, or rather a popular print in which the provincial lifestyle is much mocked at. The plot of the story alludes to the Robin Hood ballads. It is set in a provincial town with the only enterprise and a couple of outlaws going into stealing and robbery. Life is quiet and stable, people are contented, the rank of the town elite is defined. The town is run by a mayor and his son serviced by a gay butler. Quite unexpectedly a former criminal authority Ali Baba - a father of the male lead Vaska returns from the asylum [durka] . To form a complete set of Robin Hood characters Vaska and his friend Taras are joined by lady Marion - a Ukrainian prostitute Mary. Now the village men have set forth to fight corruption, bring the wicked mayor to repent for misdeeds, restore fairness and - oh dear! - deprive people of faith in the good tsar! And of course, as in every fairy tale, the «Gop-Stop» has got a morale which is sounded at the end of the film by the famous cartoonist Garry Bardeen (Pavel Bardeen's father): «There is no better fun than fighting for freedom!»

From an incredible art-adorned hotel that rivals the very best to a completely deserted island fringed by pristine reefs and sandy beaches, we've picked some of our favourite properties in South Africa and Mozambique to give you a heaven of a honeymoon. The ultimate combination of city, safari and beach, you'll fly to Cape Town and travel along the Garden Route for some serious wining and dining, before heading to the exclusive Sabi Sand Game Reserve to watch the Big Five from your luxurious earth-sunken, hidey-hole. No honeymoon is complete without a few days on the beach, so we've gone one better and given you a few days on a private island, with only your butler and a few turtles and birds for company.
Leaving nothing out on a romantic trip to Southern Africa.
Adding two nights at the impressive Babylonstoren – a luxurious and flower scented estate in the Cape Winelands.
Starting your honeymoon in Cape Town, you'll be taken to the Bantry Bay, home to some of the most expensive real estate in Africa. Elevated above the bay with views that will leave even the jaded traveller breathless, the Edwardian mansion Ellerman House is the first of many stunning properties you'll stay in during your two week trip. The house has statement-making art pieces adoring the walls and floors and there is a gallery in the garden where you can take an iPad self-guided tour to learn about the works. Ellerman House has a small fleet of private vehicles, so when you are ready to head up Table Mountain, walk along the V&A Waterfront or scope out the legendary seafood along Camps Bay and gourmet extravaganza at the Old Biscuit Mill, just let the experienced and helpful concierge know. During your stay, you'll be taken in a sidecar to the Cape Peninsula for stunning views of the coast, before going on a private food tour of the city, which showcases some of the best gastronomic experiences on offer. Once you've toured the streets, meeting the local artisans in Woodstock and Bo-Kaap, and tasted a few superb wines from the Cape Winelands, head to the Ellerman cellar to speak to the sommelier and have an in-house tasting, sampling a few of the 7,500 labels available. If the wedding planning left you a bit stressed, the Ellerman Spa is just the thing, with a colour therapy steam room, large sauna, infinity pool and incredible list of treatments.
Catching a short flight to Plettenberg Bay, you'll spend two nights on the coastal Garden Route, pottering around the pretty towns, playing golf on scenic and award-winning courses and spotting whales and dolphins from the craggy headlands. Oozing romance from every floor board, plunge pool and glass-walled suite, you'll hole up in the dramatically designed Tsala Treetop Lodge. Other than spending your days by the pool listening to the birds in the enveloping forest, you can go for a picnic in the woods, cruise around the Knysna Heads on board a yacht with a glass of sparkling wine in hand, horse ride over the surrounding hills, dive with great white sharks for a once-in-a-lifetime experience and whizz through the treetop canopy on a zipline. If you love animals, a visit to the Birds of Eden (the world's largest free flight aviary) offers world class sightings, while at Monkeyland you can go on a guided walk amongst a variety of primates, including the gibbons of Asia and the lemurs of Madagascar.
Having had a small taste of South Africa's incredible wildlife, it's now off to Sabi Sand Game Reserve for an overloaded of action-packed game drives and instructive bush walks. Flying to Nelspruit, you'll be met by your guide and taken to the scenery-embedded Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge. Every morning and afternoon, you can venture out with the knowledgeable rangers and trackers to encounter a beguiling variety of wildlife, from the Big Five to the 350 species of birds. With earth-encrusted walls, sculpted tree roots that form the boma and an active watering hole right in front of the dining area, the lodge elevates your safari experience to a whole new level. The attentive staff and excellent guides will be on hand to make sure your stay is very special, whether that's showing you the underground wine caller with over 600 rare South African vintages or setting up a private dinner for you on the Msuthlu river bed underneath the stars.
Before you fly off to Mozambique for your final nights of beachside bliss, you'll spend one night in the buzzing city of Johannesburg, situated right in the heart of the shopping district of Sandton. Your sleek base is the Atholplace, where you can relax by the pool, catch up on some reading and soak up the sun with a colourful cocktail in hand on your suite's balcony. Those looking for some retail therapy will find plenty of boutiques to keep them busy, where you can nab yourself a striking swimsuit or souvenir, while culture vultures can hit Joburg's historic and art scene hard by visiting Everard Read, the Johannesburg Art Gallery and the Apartheid Museum.
Bringing barefoot-chic to a wholly uninhabited island, the Azura at Quilalea is a true island paradise. Set on an island of 86 acres ringed by golden sand and turquoise waters, the lodge has just nine villas, each one stretched along the shores with thatched roofs, an open plan design and a sundeck to relax on. In the mornings you can take a dip in the pool or relax into the gentle sway of the hammock, slung beneath the ancient baobab trees, before trying all the activities on offer, such as scuba diving, snorkelling, swimming with dolphins, turtles and whales, kayaking through the mangroves and sailing in a traditional Mozambican dhow. With five nights here, enjoy the deserted remoteness, the kaleidoscopic reefs and the stunning sunsets – the perfect end to your ultimate African honeymoon.

Clinton appeals to idealism of college students
worf Mcallen, TXMarch 25, 2014 8:49 a.m.
Fake words from someone who was under gunfire in Bosnia.
slcdenizen t-ville, UTMarch 23, 2014 10:14 a.m.
@ Mountanman
Progress rests on the backs of idealists. The argument you present is completely transferable for defending feudalism. These young folks aren't grateful for the Lord. After twenty or forty years of subsistence living, they'll change their minds - mark my words.
Mountanman Hayden, IDMarch 23, 2014 6:18 a.m.
There is an excellent reason college students tend to have more "idealism". Its called inexperience! They haven't lived long enough to figure out real life! Wait until they actually work 20 or 40 years for a living and pay taxes, then they will be qualified to rule the rest of us!
slcdenizen t-ville, UTMarch 22, 2014 3:43 p.m.
I'm not sure Ms. Clinton's message will be received well in 2016. If we have our politicians promoting an open culture of honest debate and forward thinking, what will happen to our society? I am much more in favor of our politicians furiously promoting single causes and lecturing their opponents in place of compromise. Here in Utah we have a rich history of hierarchical scolds defending our time-honored values and Washington could learn a thing or two in that regard.

Map USB device to a specific special file
Hi all,
sorry to bother you with this, but I forgot how to do it and can't find it on google.
I know that there is a way to map a specific USB device to a specific special file. Currently it is mapped to /dev/input/eventX where X is variable (may change each time you plug in a USB device).
I want to map it to a specific special file every time it is plugged in. I remember that I was able to steer that based on the product ID or product key (something viewable by "cat /proc/bus/input/devices").
I can't remember how to do it...can anyone please refresh my memory?
Many thanks,
The document to search for is "Writing udev rules"
by Daniel Drake
Cheers, that was it!

Unless you travel internationally on a regular basis, I think most of us can agree that a significant more amount of preparation (and oftentimes, stress) goes into making sure you have everything you'll need before heading out the door. I grew up traveling abroad a decent amount–visiting family in India and my parents have always loved to do family trips–but it wasn't until I started traveling sans-guardians that I figured out the essentials that were really important to me specifically. They aren't too obscure, so most of you will probably relate or benefit, too!
1. Easily accessible full set of clothes. This is a big one if you're checking a bag, which hopefully you aren't most of the time because #teamcarryon. In any case, there's really nothing worse than not having a change of clothes if your bag gets lost or your flight gets seriously delayed (or lets be honest: there's a spill). Even if I'm only taking a carry-on, I separate one full outfit, including underthings, to be more easily accessible in case I need them in a pinch.
2. A loose sweater wrap, or scarf. Not only is having one of these really useful for chilly long-haul flights, but depending on your destination, you may be heading somewhere where you may need to cover up on occasion (in churches, temples, chilly museums, etc.). If you want to go the casual route, I can't recommend this one enough. The price is right, it comes in so many colors, and it's still soft after so many washes! This linen scarf is a good light summer option that can be dressed up a bit.
3. Outlet adapters. Definitely an essential to add to your packing list because if you forget, these cost an arm and a leg at airports! I have a set of individual country plugs my parents got me years ago, and we got this charging station before Europe last year. It's sold out but this one is highly rated if you want a whole bank of outlets. Try this if you want individual plugs for a bunch of countries.
4. A convenient pouch. This is kinda random but ends up being a really helpful thing to have. TRUFFLE sent over some pouches before my last trip and they were so helpful for storing receipts, loose change, transportation tickets, etc. The clutches are awesome. I like the clear ones make it easy to locate contents, but any dedicated pouch will do. It's nice to have your essentials in one place on the plane, too–I had tissues, lip balm, hand sanitizer, my toothbrush + toothpaste, and hand cream in one for our flight!
5. Disinfectant wipes. This is a relatively new one for me…within the past few years, I've read countless articles and heard so many stories on how gross planes are. It's all obvious and hard to avoid, but I've taken to carrying on a small pack of disinfectant wipes (like these…usually stop at a drugstore the week before I leave) on long-haul flights to wipe down the seat buckle, tray table, armrest, volume/channel/light controls, etc. Definitely on the paranoid side (J loves to make fun of me for it) but it's so easy to do and if you're going to be sitting in that space for hours, worth the small hassle. I've seen more and more people doing it every time! Plus, having a pack of these isn't a bad idea if you'll be doing a bunch of touristy things or have gelato dripping down your arm–speaking from experience.
I'd love to know–what are your basic travel essentials? We're talking outside hand sanitizer, lip balm, and the basics I'm sure most of us tend to swear by :)

Last week a physician shadowed me to see if there is anything I or my staff can do differently with my work flow with this new EHR. I was looking forward to having a forum to vent my complaints with the system and hopefully to have a way to fix it but nervous at the same time, not knowing what to expect, worried that they would have suggestions that would make me look a fool.
The physician who happened to come was one that had a hand in writing some of the new EHR templates. I was so disappointed in those templates that between you and me I actually cried in frustration in the first few weeks of our changeover. How could we be expected to do what we needed to do when these were the tools we were given to do it with? I told him that I did not like the templates, that I thought they S-U-C-K-E-D.
Yes, I used the word sucked and I cringe even now at the recollection. With that one word I dismissed all of the considerable time and effort he had poured into those templates.
Have you ever been so frustrated and nervous that unreasonable things just flow out of your mouth?
Of course you have.
Ever been on the receiving end of someone else's frustration, as they vented like that?
Sure you have…
At times, when I feel passionately about something, my filter just ups and disappears. After listening to him tell me that I should hire a staff member to approve or reject all of my refills instead of doing it myself, after having him say that my desire to take and enter my own past medical and surgical histories was a waste of time, after being lectured that writing a narrative history of present illness was silly that I should be clicking buttons instead… I was no longer really hearing his words to me or my own responses back to him.
But I LIKE doing those things! Interacting with my patients is what makes medicine fun and rewarding for me.
It was not until days later that a realization hit me. He believes this stuff just as passionately as I believe that he is wrong. My response was not just unprofessional, it was mean. I try to have compassion and respect for all of my patients, even the difficult ones, but where was my compassion for him?
You need to be flexible. Medicine isn't what it used to be. You have to adapt.
I don't want him to be right.
I hate that he might be right.
And so I have spent this past week after reading his write up of our interaction licking my wounds, pondering the next step. What do I do from here?
The first thing, I believe, is to apologize. I don't know that it will matter to him, but I need to apologize for me. I don't want to be *that* person, the one who believes their rude behavior is justified.
And then? What then?
There is the question.

Oscar-winning director Nick Park has shed light on the plot of Wallace And Gromit's latest adventure.
After a big screen outing in The Curse of the Were Rabbit, the animated pair return to television this Christmas in A Matter of Loaf and Death.
And ahead of the beloved duo's TV comeback, their creator has revealed his relief at returning to the 30-minute episode format, having spent recent years making feature films.
"I love making films for the cinema but the production of Chicken Run and Curse of the Were-Rabbit were virtually back to back and each film took five years to complete," Park explained.
"A Matter of Loaf and Death will be so much quicker to make. I'm delighted to be back into production and back with BBC1 with Wallace and Gromit.
"Over the years the BBC has been incredibly supportive of Wallace and Gromit, this film feels like their homecoming."
In their new TV outing, Wallace and Gromit have opened a new bakery Top Bun and business is booming, not least because a deadly Cereal Killer is targeting all the bakers in town and so competition is drying up.
Though Gromit is worried that they may be the next victims, Wallace (Peter Sallis) is oblivious, having fallen head over heels in love with Piella Bakewell, (voiced by Coronation Street's Sally Lindsay) former star of the Bake-O-Lite bread commercials.
So Gromit is left to run things on his own when he'd much rather be getting better acquainted with Piella's lovely pet poodle Fluffles, only to make a shocking discovery which points to the killer's true identity.
Commenting on the new film, BBC1 controller Jay Hunt said: "I am delighted Wallace and Gromit will be part of our Christmas schedule on BBC1.
"A Matter of Loaf and Death is just the sort of unmissable family entertainment that epitomises the channel at its very best."
