Scuba regulators are what make diving possible.
Forget every other piece of equipment; if you have a reg and an air source you can dive.
When Jacques Yves Cousteau and Emile Gagnan modified a welding regulator into a pressure-sensitive demand regulator in 1943, they opened the mysteries of the underwater world to anyone willing to discover them.
Although there have been a few innovations since those first scuba diving regulators, today's modern regulator is essentially the same piece of equipment.
This guide shows you how to review diving regulators and select the right one for your diving needs.
Although there are dozens of different brands and models of diving regulators to choose from there are only 3 basic types.
Each of these types has their own characteristics, benefits and drawbacks.
Follow this link to learn more about each type of scuba regulator.
Diving regulators have a host of features, all of which you need to consider before spending your hard earned cash.
From how your regs attatch to your air tank to what you should look for in a second stage, everything from top to bottom needs to be looked at closely.
Follow this link to learn more about each of these scuba diving regulator features.
An important consideration most people overlook is maintenance.
If you buy an older model second hand regulator, or some exotic piece of equipment, you may have a hard time getting it serviced.
Scuba regulators should be serviced annually and if your local shop can't do it you may have just bought yourself an expensive paper weight.
You have to think not only about your local shop, but what if you have a problem on vacation? Will you be able to get your diving regulator serviced on site?
If you stick with a fairly new regulator of common make and model you shouldn't have any trouble with service, home or abroad.
Follow this link to learn more about regulator care and maintenance.
Before you buy your first set of scuba regulators you have some thinking to do. Not about the nice shiny new toy you are going to buy, but about what kind of diving you do and what kind of diver you are.
If you dive mostly on vacation in warm tropical waters on shallow coral reefs you will require a far less robust, and expensive, diving regulator than if you are plunging to the cold depths on mixed gas.
Be honest with yourself.
Make a checklist of what you are looking for in a scuba diving regulator.
Start reading reviews and manufacturers specifications.
Do your homework and you'll have scuba regulators that you'll enjoy and be able to dive with for years.

Occasionally, we stumble across something on this crazy thing they call the Internet that just makes us stop, scratch our head and wonder whose bright idea it was. This is one such case.
It's a tie-up between Paul Teutul, Jr., best known for his work on American Chopper and as one of the founders of Orange County Choppers, and Blizzard Entertainment. For those not in the know, Blizzard is the maker behind such blockbuster PC games as Diablo, Starcraft and yes, the Warcraft series.
So what's going on? Maybe an NPC based on Paul, Jr. in the massively multiplayer World of Warcraft, or perhaps a promotional bike with Leeroy Jenkins airbrushed on the fuel tank? Nope, it's a web series. Because of course it is.
Called Azeroth Chopper, for the fictional world in which the Warcraft series takes place, it features a pair of Blizzard execs leading teams made up of three designers from Teutul, Jr.'s company, Paul Jr. Designs. Of course, Teutul, Jr. is overseeing the whole shebang.
Each team will be tasked with designing and building a themed chopper based on World of Warcraft's two factions, the Horde and the Alliance (if the series were really true to life, the designers would need to participate in 37 different fetch quests to gather the parts for their chopper). From there, gamers will be able to vote on their favorite, which will then be available as an in-game mount.
WoW, as World of Warcraft is known, has been in a difficult position over the years, as its subscribership has declined from a high of 12 million people in October 2010 to 7.8 million in February of this year. If the Paul, Jr. pairing is part of a larger push to introduce the game to a wider audience, we can't help but feel the association is more than a few years too late. As our friends at Asphalt & Rubber say, with this latest move, it seems like both sides have kind of jumped the shark.
Azeroth Choppers is already a few episodes in, although as each show is only about nine minutes long, you can catch up easily enough. Episode four will be available to view tomorrow. Take a look below for the first three episodes.

Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT)
The world's leading software company, Microsoft is the force behind the Windows operating systems and the Office suite of software.
There are very serious questions about management. For $8.5 billion, Microsoft should have been able to build a Skype clone, buy 10 million users, and return $7.5 billion to shareholders. But they didn't. They spent the whole wad on acquiring Skype. Why couldn't that be in-housed? (Why couldn't the Kin succeed, or the Zune?)
Now Ballmer comes out talking about Windows 8, and the corporate office has to remind him the next day that it's not announced yet and they still have a Windows 7 product cycle to get through first. How much damage did this do to revenues, due to late adopters who now are just going to hold on for another 12-18 months?
More importantly - how does Ballmer make an error like that? Maybe he doesn't *know* what his company's flagship product is, or what the timeline of its next rollout is? Well, that's OK - he's just the CEO?
Seriously? This ship is adrift without a rudder. Paul Allen's owning sports teams and buying famous guitars, Bill Gates is traveling the world giving money away, and Ballmer is back to what he knows best - selling widgets, like vacuum cleaners or used cars. That's not what MSFT needs to dominate in 2012.
They bought skype's user base, not just the software.
Thank you ikkyu! Why did they not just make a duplicate to Skype? How easy would that've been... sure Skype has name recognition, but it's not God by any means. The program is clunky and slow, and I'm sure users would be glad to jump ship in MSFT came up with a functional working alternative. Oh wait, Balmer's still CEO. Gates needs to step in and save this company or else watch it fall like a WW2 bomber in the sky
What your saying makes sense except MSFT hasn't been very good at making clone's of anything (i.e. windows phone, zune, pretty much the microsoft version of most products) so it's sort of the worse of two evils: make your own sub-par version or overpay. I do think they overpaid but also feel thats priced in and that the stocks a buy solely on valuation.
As much as I like MSFT as a stock, I cannot help but find what you say amusing. MSFT has been less than perfectly successful at making clones of anything lately. But I cannot name one of MSFT's core products that is not a clone of something: CP/M -> MS-DOS WordPerfect -> MS Word Mac OS -> MS Windows Lotus 1-2-3 -> MS Excel dBase -> MS Access Playstation -> XBox Salesforce.com -> MS Dynamics CRM (I don't know where they got the inspiration for MS Powerpoint) Typically their strategy seems to clone the most successful product in a given market, price it lower than the original and "integrate" it with their core Windows/Office offering, right until the sweet spot where it becomes economically more viable for the customer (=IT department) to switch to the Microsoft offering for lower total cost and "convenience" of using a whole bunch of MS products at once. However, this strategy seems to have worked much less well when the customers are actual consumers who make their own decisions, not corporate IT departments. The Skype acquisition seems to follow the logic they applied with Hotmail: too successful to ignore; possible to re-create but too difficult tie in as a stand-alone boxed application to go with MS Office. So they bought it.
just make sure you get out of the way when this ship unfurls its sails again, Ikkyu2
They do remove a competitor by buying Skype and also remove an acquisition target by other competitors. May not be worth $8.5 B, but still considerations.
Oh, I'll get out of the way, JPAK. I'll know when it's time for MSFT to set sail again because first IBM will make a resurgence and once again own the hardware market. When that happens I'll start looking out for MSFT to regain its dominance in software. Soon afterwards, I will found a company that makes Selectric balls and ribbons, and then I will purchase a bunch of land and raise up cows to turn their skins into leather buggy whips - oh, the buggy is coming back, didn't you hear?
It's against the law to acquire a company just to remove a competitor. If that'd been the primary purchase of this $8.5 B purchase, DOJ would've blocked it.
As far as Skype's 10 million person userbase, at 8.5 billion they paid nearly $80 thousand per user. I bet they could have gotten folks to sign up for MicroSoftCall Pro for a one-time payment of $10,000 per user!
Tell me how you really feel about them.
Ikkyu2...It is a while since I was in school, but in my day $8,500,000,000/10,000,000 was $850. And $10,000,000*80,000 was $800bn.
800 billion for Skype would probably have been a little excessive.
Building something in-house? It's way overrated and much easier said than done. Bill Gates might be still in his garage trying to build something useful if IBM had decided to build their entry into the PC world in-house, but they didn't and bought Bill's operating system and other components instead. The rest is history.....
In IT, time is very valuable. Technology advances can pass you by while still trying to finish something in house. IMO the billions they spent buying skype bought them lots of the time and more that they needed to be competitive and fast track their entry into that nook.
After all is said and done, that purchase of skype could be the stroke of genius Ballmer was hoping for now that it's been adapted by no less than FaceBook.
I imagine this is how Steve Ballmer acted when he found out about the facebook/skype deal.
I imagine this is how Steve Ballmer acted when he found out about the facebook/skype deal.
How did MS fail to ensure synchronous communication with Outlook by Androids and even, God forbid, iPhones?. Why hasn't MS built its own cloud? Asleep at the wheel, or fat dumb and happy, or too bureaucratic, or what?
We have been using Microsoft Cloud since mid-2010 to host out client apps.
I can't help but to laugh at the non-sence I'm reading. It was all a cold war like tactic to go after apples iChat. That's it! Why build a clone and have 3 competitors than spending the same amount that would have costed you and go after your true competitor, apple. Like the us in the cold war they could have left other countries alone and gone straight after Russia but by spending a little more cash and time they converted those would be enemies into allies. Common sence people!
Let's recap Ballmer's greatest post-Gates hits.
1) Zune.
2) Kin.
3) Windows Vista.
The guy makes Megan Fox's film career look good. Can't wait to see what she's in next, can you?

text: 'Flight' Review: Washington Crash Lands in Oscar Territory Print article Send a Tip by Christian Toto 2 Nov 2012 post a comment Denzel Washington has spent too much of his 50s classing up generic thrillers like "Safe House," "Deja Vu" and "The Taking of Pelham 123." "Flight" reminds us why we call him so easily by his first name and, more importantly, take his ability to lift mediocre material for granted. The new film, which also marks the return of director Robert Zemeckis to stories of consequence, should deposit Washington back into Oscar's good graces. It's precisely where he belongs. Washington plays "Whip" Whitaker, a veteran airline pilot whose poise helps him land a severely damaged plane in the film's most harrowing sequence. He's a hero ... at least until investigators discover Whip had alcohol in his system during the flight. Now, Whip must battle both a mounting body of evidence saying he was unfit to fly along with his spiraling alcohol dependency. "Flight" is much more than yet another damaged soul seeking redemption yarn. The movie offers illuminating dialogue that's alternately profound and comic, along with grand supporting turns that make Whip's plight all the more arresting. John Goodman has only a few precious scenes, but he's the embodiment of good time drug abuse, the guy who looks too comfortable in his own skin to ever stumble into rehab. Don Cheadle burns with corked fury as the lawyer assigned to keep Whip out of jail. It's a tough assignment, both in and out of character, but Cheadle straddles the line between professional excellence and moral indignation. It's precisely the walk "Flight" forces us to make. Whip deserves justice, but should a man whose skill saved a hundred "souls," as the film routinely calls them, spend so much as a night in jail? And Washington finds so many nuances in Whip's predicament it keeps swirling our own moral compasses. He's proud and boastful, weak and crumbling, and his inner strength keeps getting lapped by his appetite for destruction, with apologies to a certain screech rocker. You need an actor of Washington's weight to make "Flight" happen. He forces us to root for a drunk, to accept how his union swallows hard at his condition in order to save face and to accept the kind of redemption a film like "Flight" can give. We rarely see addiction given such a serious examination as "Flight" provides, but it's even better at letting Washington bask in his best screen role in recent memory.

A Difficult Balance
The Office of the Inspector General at the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a report this month citing the US Food and Drug Administration's need to improve its oversight of foreign clinical trials. The report raises questions over the effectiveness of federal regulatory practices and resources to keep pace with an increasingly global pharmaceutical industry, and in doing so, also engenders larger policy considerations on how to best address this problem.
The HHS report noted that 80% of approved marketing applications for drugs and biologics contained data from foreign clinical trials. More than half of clinical-trial subjects and sites were located outside the United States. Western Europe accounted for most foreign clinical-trial subjects and sites. Central and South America had the highest average number of subjects per site. Overall, FDA inspected clinical investigators at only 1.2% of all clinical-trial sites for applications approved in fiscal year 2008. It inspected 1.9% of domestic clinical-trial sites and 0.7% of foreign clinical-trial sites. The report said that challenges to conducting foreign inspections and data limitations inhibit FDA's ability to monitor clinical trials, which included problems of having early-phase clinical trials being conducted outside the US without investigational new drug (IND) applications.
In its report, HHS recommends that FDA require standardized electronic clinical-trial data, monitor trends in foreign clinical trials not conducted by INDs, and to continue to explore ways to expand its oversight of foreign clinical trials. Such recommendations are reasonable, but they also raise larger policy questions that come into play with the increased globalization of the pharmaceutical industry. That is, given the nature of the products being made and the attendant regulation that is required, should a different model of business practices and regulation apply to pharmaceutical products compared with consumer and industrial products? Should another set of rules of apply?
There is no easy answer to that question as it requires a balance of free-market principles with public regulation. Drug products, unlike consumer and industrial products, require a higher level of regulatory oversight to ensure their safety and quality. Products developed or manufactured outside the US are neither implicitly better or worse than products developed or manufactured in the US. But given the limitations of financial resources and jurisdictional authority of US federal agencies outside the US, is it a prudent course to have clinical development or manufacturing of pharmaceutical products that are targeted for the US market, to be performed outside the US? Is this question an economic debate of free trade versus protectionism or a broader policy matter in ascertaining the relevance of domestic regulation in a global marketplace? Should regulation dictate business practice or business practice dictate regulation?
It seems now that we have a hybrid response. During the past several years, FDA has responded with the opening of offices in China, India, Central America, and South America as a way to increase its oversight of pharmaceutical development and manufacturing outside the US, which is a good move in the interest of public safety. But again, it raises another broader philosophical question: should federal resources be used to indirectly support offshoring functions outside the US? There is an ongoing policy debate as to how to increase the US position in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) with initiatives supporting STEM activities in education and suggestions to foster competitiveness in innovation. But in the case of pharmaceutical products, is there a disconnect in federal policy, where on one hand we want to encourage STEM activities domestically, but on another hand are indirectly fostering STEM activities outside the US?
A lot to consider. Admittedly, it is a difficult balance of short-term, long-term, economic, and scientific goals, but perhaps one in which the sum of the parts rather than the individual parts should be considered.

Built on the site of a Danish fort about 1855 to the design of the famous architect Alexander 'Greek' Thomson, Knockderry Castle at Cove became the family home of the Templeton carpet manufacturing family. In 1896-7 another famous architect, William Leiper, designed an extension and a lodge for John Templeton, and a famous guest of his at the castle was millionaire philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. For some years a hotel, it is now a private residence again. Photo taken in 1946.

A suspected criminal in Grottoes has turned himself in to the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office after being on the run for two days.

Mississippi State is coming off a super-regional victory over Virginia, wining 6-5 after an 18-hour rain delay. This is a heavily offense based team accumulating 30 hits over a two game span against Virginia. This will be the ninth appearance in the College World Series for the Bulldogs and first since 2007. A few notable players to keep an eye on include Wes Rea who is hitting .288 along with 37 RBIs and seven home runs, and Hunter Renfroe batting .360 with 61 RBIs and 15 homeruns, along with being drafted 13th overall in the MLB draft. Adam Frazier will also be one to keep an eye on with his .359 batting average and 38 RBIs. Mississippi State will face No.3 Oregon State in game one on Saturday with the winner advancing to take on the winner of Indiana vs. Louisville. They have shown that they can get a lead and hold on to it despite late comebacks. This may be a key factor for Mississippi State, if they can get out early then this team will be hard to beat.

Cincinnati names Ty Neal as Head Coach
CINCINNATI – Indiana University pitching coach Ty Neal, who is regarded as one of the top assistant coaches in college baseball, has been named the University of Cincinnati's 27th baseball head coach, director of athletics Whit Babcock announced Friday.
Neal, a native of Southwest Ohio, has spent the last eight seasons at IU as the program's top assistant and recruiting coordinator. He was previously an assistant for the Bearcats in 2004 and both played and coached at Miami (Ohio). The Hoosiers, playing at Florida State this weekend for a berth in the College World Series, are currently ranked No. 8 nationally and playing in the NCAA Super Regionals for the first time in school history.

- Studio: Warner Independent Pictures (WIP)
- Release Date: Aug 17, 2007
- Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio
- Summary: The 11th Hour is the last moment when change is possible. The film explores how we've arrived at this moment -- how we live, how we impact the earth's ecosystems, and what we can do to change our course. Featuring ongoing dialogues of experts from all over the world, including former Soviet Prime Minister Mikhail Gorbachev, renowned scientist Stephen Hawking, former head of the CIA R. James Woolsey and sustainable design experts William McDonough and Bruce Mau in addition to over 50 leading scientists, thinkers and leaders who discuss the most important issues that face our planet and people.

Score distribution:
Positive: 20 out of 30
Mixed: 9 out of 30
Negative: 1 out of 30
Ultimately a triumph of redemptive ideas that DiCaprio -- God bless his celebrity -- may finally succeed in transporting from the environmental fringe to the mainstream moviegoing audience.
As The 11th Hour's message of Profound Importance warrants a four-star rating, the film itself does not.
Like any good religious sermon, it follows its scary vision of hell with a possibility of last-minute redemption.
If you get through the first hour without slitting your throat, the cautiously optimistic last third offers some intriguing options.
The 11th Hour is slick and passionate, but neither persuasive nor helpful; it's a headache of a film directed like an Errol Morris project, but with half the substance. It's clearly preaching to the choir, but even they may find it off-key.
Score distribution:
Positive: 6 out of 12
Mixed: 1 out of 12
Negative: 5 out of 12
ChrisB.Apr 20, 2008I am giving this film a perfect score based purely on the depth and insight of the message. I am surprised by some of the negative reviews of this film and I can only guess that some people were unaware that it was a documentary. If you enjoyed An Inconvenient Truth even the smallest bit, then this is a must see.… Expand
EnriqueSep 5, 2007Excellent! One of the most important movies later.
DanielSep 8, 2007Along with "No End In Sight," one of the best documentaries during the last years.
FrankG.Sep 1, 2007Many of the talking heads in the movie were interviewed in the Sundance Channel's TV series "Big Ideas for a Small Planet". Much of the interviewing focuses on individuals ideas and opinions but as a documentary should include more evidence and data. I think an Inconvenient Truth told a more compelling story. I think the overall message is important but I'm critical of this film as particularly good at delivering that message.… Expand
Nov 19, 2011Perhaps I am writing with too much hindsight (the 11th Hour was released four years ago after all), but after finally seeing the film, I found it's message oddly dated. The talking heads clearly know their stuff (though I do object to the fact that they are overwhelmingly composed of American "experts" with a book to sell), but it seems like the film takes far too long to make its point. Two thirds of the film (nearly an hour) is taken up with re-stating what the vast majority of people who chose to watch the film presumably already know. When a number of solutions to the woes of climate change are finally presented, it is informative and interesting, but it should not take so long to get to the main point of your argument. And I accept that Leonardo DiCaprio is a dedicated and passionate environmental campaigner, but why get him to film cringe-inducing links between each section of the film? Yes DiCaprio's financial and promotional backing of the project must have been a great help to get The 11th Hour's message out there, but is it really necessary to him Leo staring wistfully off into the sunset whenever the debate runs out of steam. We get it Leo - you care! Now stop looking guilty on our behalf and let us listen to the experts again! Perhaps my view of the film would be different had I seen it sooner, before I heard all of the arguments being presented through different channels. As it is, The 11th Hour does eventually get round to raising some interesting points, and presenting viable political, economic and scientific solutions to humanity's collective damage to Planet Earth, but a lot of it is filler, and the rest is stale and preachy. The Planet diserves far more than just Leonardo DiCaprio's ernest intentions.… Collapse
JoeS.Apr 14, 2008Repetitive, doggedly so. dismal and depressing. a far cry from "an inconvenient truth". turns the viewer off. lacking in hope or inspiration. Just a bunch of talking heads.… Expand
JaredC.Aug 18, 2007One of the year's boringest movies (with Babel being in first, and then The Good Shepherd in second), this in third because Leo embraces his character perfectly and did a lot better of a success than Matt Damon in The Good Shepherd and Brad Pitt in Babel. I only respect Leonardo DiCaprio in this movie, nothing else, as it is boring and not captivating, just interesting.… Expand

Which distribution is the RIGHT distribution? Is there such a thing?

EU proposes new law for reporting cyber hacking
Firms will have to report cyber attacks if the proposals are approved
Around 42,000 firms in the European Union, including airports, banks and hospitals, would have to inform regulators whenever their computers are hacked, under a proposed EU law to be published this week.
The law could set a global precedent for safeguarding critical infrastructure against digital attacks that have hit companies and government departments in an era of increasing "cyber-crime" and "cyber-terrorism".
But some businesses worry they face extra costs.
Under the draft law, EU member states would have to draw up a monitoring system for companies that are critical to the economy.
Those firms would then have to report major online attacks to national authorities and reveal security breaches.
Almost 15,000 transport companies, 8,000 banks, 4,000 energy firms, and 15,000 hospitals will have to report cyber attacks if the proposals are approved by EU governments and the European Parliament.
Public administrations and operators of critical Internet services would also have to report.
Firms with fewer than 10 employees would not be covered by the legislation.
"As the online world becomes a part of everything we do, securing that world is essential to ensuring a society that remains secure, prosperous and free," EU telecoms chief Neelie Kroes said in a speech last week.
Inefficient measures on cyber security carry an economic cost in lost trade, an EU poll showed.
In 2012, 38 per cent of the EU's Internet users said they were concerned about making payments online.
The proposed law would require all 27 EU states to appoint a national authority responsible for network and information security and to set up a computer emergency response team to handle security incidents.
Some firms say the regulations are too vague and could mean extra costs.
They also worry that being forced to divulge attacks on their networks to a regulator could be bad for their reputations.
In deciding whether to make a cyber attack public, the national authority would have to weigh the public interest in knowing about the incident against possible reputation damage.
The proposed legislation leaves it up to national authorities to decide whether companies would face any penalty for failing to report a cyber-attack.
"It is not about the criminalisation of attacks," one EU official said.

Grouplove - Ways to Go
Ok so we've been catching up on September's horde of indie-pop releases and in the process of doing so we stumbled across Grouplove's single "Ways to Go" and pressing the "share" button was simply reactionary. It's a song that captures exactly what it is about the indie-pop genre that is so enchanting; the high-energy, head-bobbing, springy beats paired with simple but warm vocals that satisfy the musical pallet ever so much. Check it out and get ready for the weekend with something both relaxing and upbeat!

As I understand it right now, if I have a custom sorttype like sorttype:sortDate, the function sortDate will only be called when jqGrid is initialized and not the event onSortCol. Is the only way to make onSortcol call SortDate is by manually over riding onSortCol event and writing the tedious code that does this and updates the grid accordingly? Why doesn't defining the sorttype:sortDate just over ride onSortCol event automatically? I mean when the jqGrid gets initailized it sorts correctly, but when I call the event it must do some built in sort. Why I ask is because my sortDate function doesn't have any code that actually updates jqGrid. it just returns 1,-1, or 0. its used in something outside of jqGrid...

Fans already have their faves--the 1975 original Broadway recording with Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera, the 1996 Broadway revival starring Bebe Neuwirth and Ann Reinking, the '98 Brit-hits-the-fans disc featuring Ute Lemper and Ruthie Henshall--over which they argue in chat rooms and Amazon customer-comment forums. Of the three, the first is easily the best, and not just because it's the lone offering to feature Jerry Orbach, who can't get arrested (ha ha) in musicals these days. The London cast recording's fine and dandy, though I'd rather Lemper sing Weill and Costello than Kander and Ebb, while the NY revival disc gets docked a point or two for Neuwirth, a knockout who sings in the key of H sharp. (Sure, they loved her on Broadway, especially the people who flew in from Nebraska. Catsran forever, too, and it way sucked.)
But it's all moot now that Sony's finally releasing the soundtrack to the big-screen adaptation; this is the one that'll sell better than all the predecessors put together and then some--Harvey Weinstein and whoever's running Sony these days will see to that. And it deserves the paper and platinum (and golden statues); it may not sound better than what's come before, but it sure sounds bigger. Catherine Zeta-Jones, a hoofer from way back with pipes that make Nicole Kidman's sound clogged by a fine film of phlegm and rust, can render any song a showstopper; her "All That Jazz" is all that and then some, the kind of opening number that made Bob Fosse light up a smoke and ask for a new heart. She's the belter of the bunch, leaving Renée Zellweger with most of the ballads; the former's songs take place on the stage, the latter's unfold in her demented head, and it's a decent trade-off.
The real revelations: Richard Gere can sing almost as well as he can almost dance (he's the most weaselly soundingof all the Billy Flynns, but Gere's always been good at playing the lawyer with one hand on the scales of justice); Queen Latifah's got big lungs (and the cans to match--uh, wow); and John C. Reilly can take a sad song and make it better (boy doesn't have two left feet...or two left jazz hands, for that matter). On the plus side, the soundtrack restores the ribald "Class" cut out of the film (too many "shits" and "son of a bitches" for Oscar's delicate ears?). On the minus side, the Latifah-Lil' Kim-Macy Gray (c)rap redo of "Cell Block Tango" oughta be sentenced to life without parole, while Anastacia's tacked-on "Love Is a Crime" (inspired by the film, though apparently not thisone) is, yeahyeah, a crime.

Our future is a madhouseNo idea what it was supposed to be. But what's really happened: 1) I saw an announcement and clicked on it.
2) It leads to a site digested by The Fourth Monkey long ago - already good.
3) Downloading a high-quality-sound version just in case, because it's supposed to be an announcement.
4) I see some Animate Lower Jaw and hear Kewl Effectz!1. I could perhaps discern about one quarter of it with my English... if tried.
5) I just exit, right-click and choose Delete [no trash bin]. Without trying to discern words behind the echo-squeaking.
6) Checking the forum in an off-chance there's a transcription or discussion of something meaningful related to the announcement. Here's none.
7) The end. Total: loss of five minutes or so (including typing this) and something splashes down in the cache of my squid until the next reload.
8) Possible future "announcements from Mister Administrator" are now expected to be of interest and relevance equal with this (see #5-#7).
So, my only question is: uh, what was the point of making this at all? I'm genuinely puzzled.

It's particularly irritating to me because generally speaking I've never had much interest in this kind of thing, and specifically speaking I don't have much interest in Echo Chamber. So I really wish that the banner didn't look like a PM - i.e. something I would have an interest in immediately seeing.
Yeah, can the banner get changed somehow? As for "ad blocking it" I don't think that specifically will help. I mean, I'm not at all interested in AR Gs in general, so this sort of thing is just "Bleh" to me. I actually thought it was something important from Fast Eddie, and while I'm more than happy to respect that some people might enjoy this type of thing, not being able to dismiss it is irritating.

Men's Soccer Edged by York
Saturday, October 09, 2010
York, Pa. – Marymount University's men's soccer team suffered a tough 1-0 loss to York (Pa.) in Capital Athletic Conference action on Saturday afternoon. The Saints snap a three-game winning-streak with the defeat.
York scored what would prove to be the game-winner in the 54th minute as Justin Facer headed in a rebound shot from Kemal Nuspahic that careened of the crossbar.
Marymount (5-7-1, 1-3-1 CAC) nearly answered six minutes later but Philippe Millogo's rocket from 25 yards out was smothered by the Spartans keeper. The Saints had one last chance with six minutes to go, playing a beautiful cross into the box before the YCP netminder corralled the pass in traffic while getting hit.
William Brahmstedt put together a strong performance between the pipes for MU, collecting four saves in the loss.
The Saints return to the field on Tuesday, October 12, on the road at Stevenson in CAC action.

Last update 11:56:33 AM
As the deadline for Iran talks is looming, Mr. Mohammad Mohaddessin, Chairman of the NCRI's Foreign Affairs Committee, in a short interview with ncr-iran.org, described the regime's new tactics in trying to extend the negotiations without taking any serious steps to dismantle its nuclear weaponry program.
Due to the importance of this interview please find below a text of the complete Q&A.
In a shocking statistics, Rahmatollah Hafezi, an official of Tehran Municipality, acknowledged that there are 3000 women who sleep in the streets just in Tehran alone. According to Reza Jahangiri, another official of Tehran's municipality, the average age of these women has declined to 17-18 years. He stated that the reason for the increase in the number of women who sleep in the streets is due to the spread of addiction.
Hafezi, Chair of the Health and Environment Commission in the city council, announced on Friday, November 21, that the number of tramps in Tehran is 15000. This regime official acknowledged that the clerical regime has not provided any shelter for these wretched women. This is at a time when the cold season has caused harsher conditions for the poor and in the past two weeks people in 14 provinces are living in difficult conditions due to the heavy snow and rain fall (Tasnim News Agency, affiliated with the terrorist Qods Force – November 21).
NCRI – The Iranian regime henchmen lashed four men for "mischief" on Saturday in public in a southern city.
The commander of the State Security Forces (police) in the city of Charam was quoted by a local website as saying: "The four individuals were each sentenced to 74 lashes for the destruction of public property, thievery and using drugs."
It will be impossible for the 5+1 countries and the Iranian regime to reach a comprehensive agreement over Tehran's nuclear issue by the Nov. 24 deadline, state-run news agency IRNA reported on Sunday.
The report quoted an unnamed member of the Iranian regime's negotiating team as saying: "Considering the short time left until the deadline and number of issues that needed to be discussed and resolved, it is impossible to reach a final and comprehensive deal by Nov. 24."
NCRI - Over two dozen Iranian Kurdish political prisoners incarcerated in a prison in the western city of Orumieh have staged a hunger strike since Thursday to protest against the transfer of non-political prisoners to their ward.
The transfer of prisoners that often include gangs affiliated to the regime, to Ward 12 of the prison is aimed at intensifying pressure and psychologically torturing the political prisoners.
NCRI - The Iranian regime's State Security Forces (police) have shut down at least 26 cafés in Tehran during the past week for "failure to comply with certain regulations" which include "improper dressing by costumers and smoking cigarettes".
The owner of one café that opened seven years ago in Tehran told a local daily: "Last Tuesday the agents came to our café and shut down our location. Although in the past we had received only notices regarding some regulations, this time they told us the premise must be shut down."
A group of Iranians held a protest near the Palais Coburg in Vienna where closed-door nuclear talks between the 5+1 countries and the Iranian regime are taking place.
The demonstrators carried a long banner reading: "No compromise on violations of human rights in Iran for the sake of nuclear talks with the mullahs."
The Iranian regime must suspend its enrichment of uranium and heavy water production, and abide by its obligations to the United Nations and treaty agreements before any nuclear deal with the West can be struck, Canadian MP Irwin Cotler has declared.
The regime must also agree to inform the international community about its past proliferation activities and co-operate fully with IAEA inspectors during the crucial talks in Vienna, Mr Cotler said.
The United States faces a 'broader array of threats from a greater variety of terrorist groups than at any point since 9/11', the nation's acting director at the National Counter-terrorism Center has warned.
Nicholas Rasmussen told Senate Select Intelligence Committee on Thursday that 13 years ago, al Qaeda was regarded as the top threat to the US, but now the danger also included 'lone wolves'," the Islamic State and terrorists sponsored by the Iranian regime.
NCRI - Critically ill political prisoner, Ali Moezzi, has been transferred to solitary confinement and his family has been told by authorities in Tehran's infamous Evin Prison that no communication is allowed with him.

Jul 27, 2012Gentle, simply told love stories are as rare in documentaries these days as they are in narrative film. That alone makes Yi Seung-jun's Planet of Snail a standout.
Jul 27, 2012More often Planet of Snail evokes, in radiant detail, the mutual reliance that makes good partnerships work.
A disability-centric documentary that moves viewers without resorting to trite devices, Seung-Jun Yi's Planet of Snail takes a condition most of us would find unbearable and demystifies it while finding room for poetry.
Planet of Snail is simple, direct and magical. The warm, intimate story of a singular couple, it won the top prize at the prestigious International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam, and it will win you over as well if you give it the chance.
Jul 23, 2012Even with the heaviness of some of its subject matter, the documentary remains limpid and unsentimental until the very end, in keeping with its subject.
Jul 25, 2012With little story to speak of, Planet Of Snail is more of an experiential piece, closing in on the pleasure and wonder with which Young-chan takes in details like rain falling outside the window and the bark of a tree.
The Korean documentary Planet of Snail is spare and unemphatic - too much so - with an abiding sweetness of spirit.
