I don't get what you people except so much from this guy, can we all remember he's the one who made the Jerry series as well as the one that said Fluttershy from my little pony was a murderer and Rarity forced mexicans to do slave labor.
That being said this was a bit entertaining to watch if a bit anti-climatic.

text: The HITTITE Spirit "Spirits of Fear, Terror, and Discouragement" Just as we said last week…it is very important to understand how each of these 7 spirits operates in order to recognize if our hearts are currently "infected" with any of them…and so that we can recognize them in the hearts of other people too… When you can understand how these spirits work in a person or in a group of people…then we can start the process of resisting their stranglehold on us and then conquer them like God told us to do! We are learning how these spiritual forces operate and how to deal with them….we're not learning really how to "cast out a demon" but more along the lines of understanding how these spirits behave so we can discern more easily why and in whom, these forces are operating… The sad thing is…these spirits tend to operate within the Body of Christ…yuck! We have to remember that we "do not battle against the flesh, but against principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world." Ephesians 6:12 These spirits are very real…and their effects on our lives can be devastating…so it's important to know how they operate The word "HITTITE" literally means "sons of terror"….the Hittites were descendants of Noah's great-grandson Heth, whose name means "terror" TERROR refers to "an extreme manifestation of fear, and is always related to the element of MYSTERY" EX of TERROR: You may be afraid of a live wire because you KNOW that enough electricity is running through it to hurt you if you touch it…but this ISN'T terror…..TERROR is when you are walking all alone at night and you DON'T KNOW if someone is going to jump out and attack you… TERROR is related to the UNKNOWN…. EX: a serial killer is loose in your neighborhood and you DON'T KNOW if you are his next target… Since terror is related to the unknown…it has to do with things YOUR MIND CANNOT SEE….terror is more EMOTIONAL than MENTAL….it's based more on what your emotions "hear" than on what your mind can see TERROR is, of course, where we get the word TERRORIST from…TERRORISM means: A manifestation of fear; a literal fear of an unknown happening; a SECRECY planned and carried out with the aim to create panic and confusion among the unsuspecting Our minds prefer it when all is right with the world….when law and order is around…when we can count on something….when we know we can "trust" things to work for our well-being… BUT…when FEAR comes along and attacks our minds…rationality goes out of the window and PANIC sets in. When PANIC and FEAR sets in…we start reacting to things IRRATIONALLY!.....this is exactly the type of ground that the Hittite spirit loves! When we start acting irrationally….we need to remember and SPEAK OUT what the Word of God says to us about fear and terror… Psalm 27:1 "The Lord is my Light and my Salvation--whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life--of whom shall I be afraid?" Isaiah 35:5 "Say to those who are of a fearful and hasty heart, Be strong, fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance; with the recompense of God He will come and save you." Isaiah 41:10 "Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice." 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control." Hebrews 13:6 "So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm [I will not fear or dread or be terrified]. What can man do to me?" This evil spirit does NOT want you to remember these promises that God has given us in His Word!!!! The Hittite spirit….which is extreme fear of the unknown…works perfectly with the Girgashite spirit….remember how they are earthly…no spiritual vision… Once your eyes are off of God and His purpose…then you tend to fall back to your sensual (soulish) mind and begin to operate only out of what you can see and hear from the news, media, and newspapers in your environment…the consequence is that fear grips your heart, worries set in and you soon forget that faith does not work by sight… 2 Corinthians 5:7 "we live by faith, NOT by SIGHT." Because HITTITES are spirits of terror…they attack your emotions…they are the spirit behind NIGHTMARES and non-rational PHOBIAS such as claustrophobia, exaggerated fear of DOGS, and fear of being in the DARK… If you have ever suffered from one of these things…then you know that terror produces a sense of DEEP EMOTIONAL DESPAIR AND TORMENT….it can actually cause a desire not to live anymore Because it relies on craftiness, secrecy and stealth in order to maximize its attack…it is very hard to detect except by revelation by the Holy Spirit… HITTITE spirits are behind suicides…because it causes such a sense of dread, despair, and torment….which all play heavily on the mind There are groups of people that operate in this spirit…EX: Groups like Al-Qaeda and Hamas The HITTITE spirit attacks our emotions….our brain is set up with 2 hemispheres…the right and the left…. SHORT SCIENCE LESSON: The RIGHT side of the brain is associated with (LOGICAL REASONING): truth, law, limitations, established truths, death, structure, seen, public openness, and seeing… The LEFT side of the brain is associated with (CREATIVE AND INTUITIVE PROCESSES): spirit, grace, freedom, life, New unknown truths, intuitive randomness, unseen, secrecy, and hearing… So…..the MIND is on the RIGHT side of the soul and our EMOTIONS are on the LEFT side of our soul… Emotional people tend to be more creative than those who are by nature logical thinkers…that's why most singers, composers, painters, and poets are emotional people… _________________________ Another aspect of the "suicide" part of this spirit…the Hittite spirit attacks the LEFT side of the brain…which also deals with grace and secrecy…….one definition of GRACE:….seemingly effortless beauty or charm Physical beauty is a God-given gift…it is actually to draw people to God's beauty…not to you… There is only so much of your "grace" or "beauty" that you should expose in public EX: Just like in Exodus 3:5 God tells Moses not to draw any closer to the burning bush….God was not going to expose any more of Himself until Moses COMMITTED to God's calling for his life….you see…Moses was drawn to the bush to "behold this great sight"……in the same way…there are certain dimensions of your physical beauty that MUST NOT be exposed in public. There is a certain deep enjoyment of another person's grace that can only be done in intimacy that is covered in COMMITMENT…a COVENANT…. EX: you can't truly enjoy another person's friendship until that friendship reaches a level of trust where you can tell each other secrets and share your deep thoughts and fears…. Exposing yourself like that to a stranger who has not entered into a true friendship covenant with you would be SUICIDE…they would turn on you and rip you to shreads…. EX: Spouses can enjoy each other's physical beauty in a deep way because they have such intimacy…they have a COVENANT….to do this outside of a covenant is an act of SUICIDE…. Matthew 7:6 says you can't throw your "holy things" (your inner treasure) to the dogs and do not throw your pearls before pigs, because they will trample on them and then try to destroy them…. When you expose yourself this way and you don't have a COVENANT…then this beauty loses its truth foundation and becomes false beauty….it becomes totally LEFT sided with no RIGHT side…that opens the door to the Hittite spirits …. This is why men and women who improperly expose themselves physically to other people end up having constant bouts with DEPRESSSION, DESPAIR, and sometimes even SUICIDE. This is why propsitutes usually become drug addicts in their quest to flee from the torment of the Hittite spirits that they have opened the door to by their constant exposing of intimate beauty without demanding a COVENANT in truth. This is also why many congregations have lost their TRUE prophetic anointing…because young "women" or "sisters" go around the congregation wearing low-rise pants or low-cut shirts or short tight skirts or other provocative clothes…exposing their physical grace in public, and that in turns draws Hittite spirits that slowly suck up the true prophetic anointing in their own lives and the lives of those in the congregation!!!!!!!! WOW!!!! DO YOU GET THIS!!!!! How important is it for you to DRESS DECENTLY!!!! Do you see how the devil has even come in to our fashion culture to zap out this generation when it comes to the prophetic!!!!!! He knows what he is doing…..BUT do WE realize it!!!!! Two studies I was reading said that if you have a strong PROPHETIC CALLING on your life…you are likely to be attacked by this spirit….by the spirit that causes despair or emotional and mental attacks…on the outside the prophetic person may seem to have it together…but often those in the prophetic will tell how they are often under mental attacks by the enemy…but through Christ you can stand strong and defeat this spirit! Your "standing strong" helps to produce incredibly major victories in the spiritual realm that bless and liberate many people! Because of our fear of our "personal self" being hurt…we actually put up barriers in our minds to protect ourselves from anyone or anything that would inflict inward pain….some of these barriers are: PROCRASTINATION OVER DECISION-MAKING…or a REFUSAL TO CONFRONT ISSUES AND DEAL WITH THEM…or putting up a wall of "coldness" that hopes to protect us from people who would hurt us… A person who suffers from deep emotional despair usually falls into states of DEEP DEPRESSION AND SADNESS…if you ever look into a person's eyes and you can see a sense of deep sadness and despair…you are looking into the eyes of a person under Hittite attack Since HITTITE spirits prey on people's emotions…they like to stay in the dark and remain unseen to the mind…they WHISPER SPECULATIONS into the person's emotions…this means that people who have the nasty habit of spreading rumors and speculations are people who hang on to the Hittite spirit in their hearts…YUCK! The HITTITE-spirit prefers to HIDE itself….it often disguises itself as a "FRIEND" rather than "FOE"…..which is exactly the mode that terrorists operate in….. Look at this example from the BIBLE…. 2 Chronicles 18:28-29 "And the king of Israel went up, and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, to Ramoth-gilead. And the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I WILL DISGUISE MYSELF, and go into battle; and you put on your robes. AND THE KING OF ISRAEL DISGUISED HIMSELF. And they went into battle." When you read the whole entire thing in 2 Chronicles 18….we find that: (READ IT!) o Ahab (the king of Israel…bad guy) and Jehoshaphat (the king of Judah…a righteous king who sometimes hung out with the wrong crowd) go into battle against the revelation of God (v. 16)…but God…knowing their hearts gives them what they have already decided to do o In an attempt to keep the outcome that the prophet Micaiah said would happen Ahab chose to disguise himself o (Ahab always hated Micaiah because this prophet always prophesied the TRUTH…Ahab would rather listen to the other prophets that were FALSE PROPHETS…they were more concerned with pleasing Ahab than saying what God wanted them to say….they were "real prophets"…they had a real prophetic calling on their lives…but they did not abide in TRUTH..so everything they prophesied was lies) o Notice in v. 23 Zedekiah slapped Micaiah and asked him, "When did the Spirit of the Lord go from me to you?"…..this means that Zedekiah…who had a legitimate prophetic calling…actually felt some type of spiritual presence flowing through him as he prophesied…and he thought that this presence was God…BUT Zedekiah's heart wasn't right…it was not set on God's TRUTH and God's JUDGMENT…he wanted to speak to please Ahab so it was a spirit of DECEIT that God allowed him to be exposed to….when God sees you placing your FAITH in your EMOTIONS and not on His truth…Get ready…cause those EMOTIONS will deceive you….Don't idolize your emotions…Don't put the "left" side before the 'right" side o Ahab even uses Jehoshaphat as bait by asking him to wear his royal robes into the battle while he (Ahab) puts on a simple soldier's outfit o Against all odds (because the Lord is sovereign even in this battle)…Jehoshaphat escapes death (v. 32) while Ahab, even though disguised…cannot escape the Lord's hand o The end of the whole thing happens when a lone Syrian archer fires a RANDOM SHOT which "just happens to kill Ahab" o SIDENOTE: Just as Hittites can shoot arrows from the dark…God's prophetic people can shoot prophetic words into the atmosphere and impact distant places…that is actually what we are called to do! Check out how exactly Ahab ends his life…he wanted to be hidden in battle…but he ends his life propped up in a chariot away from the battlefield (v.33-34) His PROUD HITTITE spirit still wants to stand up…even if he has to be propped up to do it… o Can you see the Hittite spirit in Ahab…pride, hiddenness, secrecy, disguising himself… The HITTITE spirit might plan in the dark…but it will eventually come out in the light of God and He WILL deal with it! God's Word and God's Truth will find you out!....so those who use secrecy, who practice deceit, who would try to shut up the prophetic, and who misuse others for their own gain…are siding with the Hittite spirit God often works against His adversaries by coming "in the opposite spirit"….so He deals with it by Prophetic Truth since Prophecy and Truth are very opposite to FALSE SPEECH and DECEIT This verse in Proverbs tells us that God provides the Church with VISION through the PROPHETIC ANOINTING…. Proverbs 29:18 "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he." But…when the Hittites enter a place…they try to pervert the prophetic anointing because they have no regard for the RIGHT side…the TRUTH side…..but this verse says that HAPPY is he that KEEPS THE LAW….so the way to stop the Hittite vision-robbing spirit is GOD'S LAW!!!! That is why God has told us to keep the WORD before us and in our hearts at all times…..as you stand on the Word of God…the TRUTH…the Hittite spirit is driven away….it cannot survive in the TRUTH of God's WORD! The Hittite spirit can be found in those who practice: o Gossip and slander o Those who abuse others by use of words and speech o Inordinate desire to keep secrets o Those who terrorize others in whatever form it may take o Rumor-starters who delight to instill fear and distress others o Leaders who quench the Holy Spirit's voice o Those who try to discourage instead of encourage o Undue criticism bent on controlling others It can be found in those who suffer from: o Phobias of all kinds o Fear and mental torments o Those who are melancholy in nature (a feeling of thoughtful sadness) o Ongoing suicidal tendencies o Long-term depression o Irresponsibility and un-accountability o Co-dependence on others as a way of escape GOING INTO THE PROMISED LAND Let's go back to the children of Israel…..Moses has died and Joshua is ready to begin leading them into the Promised Land…look at the ONLY nation that the Lord mentions….it's the HITTITES Now hang with me….and let me show you what is happening…then and NOW The HITTITE spirit attacks our emotions….remember what we talked about a few minutes ago: our brain is set up with 2 hemispheres…the right and the left…. The RIGHT side of the brain is associated with (LOGICAL REASONING): truth, law, limitations, established truths, death, structure, seen, public openness, and seeing… The LEFT side of the brain is associated with (CREATIVE AND INTUITIVE PROCESSES): spirit, grace, freedom, life, New unknown truths, intuitive randomness, unseen, secrecy, and hearing… So…..the MIND is on the RIGHT side of the soul and our EMOTIONS are on the LEFT side of our soul Remember that the Hittite spirit attacks the EMOTIONS…trying to go unseen by the mind…. NOW that we got that straightened out….check out this Scripture… Joshua 1:3-4 "Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given to you, as said unto Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the HITTITES, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast." When the Lord is speaking to Joshua…God first refers to the "eastern" side of the Promised Land…the wilderness and "this Lebanon"…all the way east to the Euphrates…which is modern day Iraq. Then God refers to the "western" side of the Promised Land…the land of the Hittites…all the way to the Great Sea (which is the Mediterranean Sea). The land of the HITTITES is to the west….or the LEFT… At first this may not seem like anything important…but God never "puts" anything in the Bible just to put it there…could He have been trying to tell us something through this…. What does the HITTITE spirit attack….the EMOTIONS…the LEFT side of the brain… The Hittite spirit likes to try to bypass the mind and slip in unseen…. Remember that the Old Testament is a "type and shadow" to the New Testament…still very relevant for us today…. Just as they were PHSYICALLY going in to the Promised Land…today we are SPIRITUALLY going in to take the Promised Land and THINK ABOUT WHAT SPIRIT has reared its head up over the past few years…..a spirit of suicide through a group called Al Qaeda…..the spirit of the Hittites…. Where is Al Qaeda based out of…? The modern day Iraq…which is the land of the Hittites which was called "this Lebanon, all the way east to the Euphrates" in Bible times… The Hittite spirit…a spirit of TERROR…that tries to slip in unseen to the mind…that plays on the emotional left side of the brain…a spirit very connected with suicide…. Remember when God said to "destroy them totally" way back in Deuteronomy 7…..or they would "turn their sons and daughters away from following Him"……isn't it interesting that this Hittite spirit is so active today!? There is something going on in the SPIRITUAL ATMOSPHERE! The time is coming to take back the spiritual PROMISED LAND Since Hittites thrive where the "right side" is ignored….they are automatically driven away when the right side is restored. Hittites are sprits of CHOAS and DISORDER…they hate the establishment of LAW and JUSTICE….This is why the Al Qaeda are making such a concerted effort to cause chaos in Iraq and to prevent the establishment of a just government. It was God's PROPHETIC PURPOSE for Saddam Hussein to be toppled in Iraq…Hussein's fall acts as a prophetic seed that will unleash the fall of countless other "fame-seekers" (which is the Amorite spirit) in the years to come… The fall of Iraq is a prophetic figure of the fall of Babylon…like is prophesied in Revelation 17 and 18… This war has stirred up so much emotion because of the spiritual ramifications that are going on with it… The men and women who are giving their selves to serve and to liberate Iraq are unleashing powerful spiritual consequences on the Hittite spirit that will bless millions and millions of people in the years ahead! _________________________ When God told the Israelites to totally and completely defeat these tribes…He was giving us incredible WISDOM in order to make our lives so much more peaceful Have you ever heard someone say "You can't make peace with an enemy who is not defeated"….cause what you end up with is a "cease fire"….which just let's the enemy regroup and attack another day….. Kinda like when you're sick and the doctor gives you antibiotics and you only take them for a few days…cause then you feel better…when the instructions CLEARLY say to take ALL of the antibiotics….WHY???? Because if you don't…the sickness comes back to haunt you again and cause you to get sick again….. TAKE ALL YOUR MEDICINE!!!!.....Get rid of all the Hittite spirit in your life!!! As Christians we have traded victory for a false sense of peace that later bubbles right back into our lives to wage battles and war In our own homes we want peace…but we just get so weary and tired…so we live in COMPROMISE…..ever been there? COMPROMISE is the place that the enemy of our soul gives us rest because we have given up the attack on his kingdom…..lukewarm….remember this!?....YUCK! Hittites represent fear and terror….don't we find it so much easier to avoid things that we fear …even if it is something we know the Lord is calling us to do…. Some people have an intense fear of the unknown….so they become a creature of habit…they get comfortable living in the land of compromise… We gotta realize that peace ONLY comes from God and not our mind and intellect's ability to reason our way back to comfort… Don't let fear stop you from doing what the Holy Spirit wants to do through you and in you! Just like Donny preached yesterday….you have to come up out of Egypt…..you can only do this through your faith in OBEDIENCE!!!!! It's easier said than done….but GET UP and go kick some Hittite butt! REALIZE THESE THINGS: We will be in a battle with Satan and his evil forces until we die. He never quits and we should never quit. Satan counts on us being quitters…..we must PERSIST! The battle becomes more fierce as we are used more by God…..however…the victories become greater and greater! Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy…he works hard at his job. He will take everything from you that you will let him have. Satan is a good devil and works 24 hours a day at his job of destroying you. We need to be as good at being Christian as Satan is good at being evil. You must learn what your condition is: mentally, physically, spiritually and materially. You must learn WHY you got into that condition so that you will not repeat the same mistakes. God realizes that the human race is lazy. We want what God has for us without having to put out much effort…that is why God requires us to work at being Christians Christians will never conquer the world for God in their present condition without deliverance….to take the Promised Land…we must get rid of the evil inhabitants in our lives

Supported by millions of dollars in institutional funds and staffed by highly trained experts, the cores provide Einstein investigators with valuable in-house scientific and technical expertise in cutting-edge genetic, molecular, structural, analytical, statistical and imaging techniques.
Cores are generally staffed by a scientific director, operations director, and additional dedicated support staff. At the Meet & Greet, the Einstein research community had the opportunity to meet the core directors and envision how these shared facilities can enhance their research objectives in an era of competitive funding and rapidly evolving science.
Einstein has historically anticipated the needs of its research community, and was one of the first medical research institutes to develop a shared knockout and transgenic mouse facility, which provides valuable tools for molecular and genetic investigations.
Today, the College of Medicine supports approximately 40 cores, offering expertise in the analysis of cells, genetics, molecular structure, and whole tissues; animal research; biohazard research; liver research; data management including biostatistics, epidemiology, and research informatics and clinical and translational research.

Holiday box-office take is highest in recent history
Moviegoers buy an estimated $278 million worth of tickets over the three-day weekend.
Zoe Saldana portrays Neytiri in the 3-D hit "Avatar," which won the three-day holiday weekend with an estimated box office take of $75 million. (20th Century Fox / December 1, 2009)
Led by the 3-D epic "Avatar," which was followed closely by "Sherlock Holmes" and "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel," total estimated theatrical receipts from Friday through Sunday in the U.S. and Canada were $278 million.
That beat the previous record of $261 million for a three-day take -- set in July 2008 when "The Dark Knight" debuted -- even when accounting for ticket price inflation, according to data from Hollywood.com. The Los Angeles-based firm's data go back to about 1985.
All the stars seemed to align for Hollywood last weekend. Christmas, always a popular moviegoing day, fell on a Friday near the end of a year during which ticket sales and attendance have risen despite the troubled economy.
Audience interest was widely distributed, with three movies collecting more than $50 million apiece.
"Avatar" sold $75 million worth of tickets in the U.S. and Canada, down just 3% from its opening, in a display of unusually strong momentum. "Sherlock Holmes" started with a very healthy $65.4 million, while "Alvin" collected a solid $50.2 million over the three-day weekend.
"It's amazing to see one weekend with so many movies doing so much business," said Rob Moore, vice chairman of Paramount Pictures.
The romantic comedy "It's Complicated" also launched Friday, collecting a healthy $22.1 million, while Paramount's well-reviewed awards contender "Up in the Air" expanded nationwide with a so-so $11.8 million. The weekend's one disappointment was "Nine," which debuted nationwide to a weak $5.5 million.
"Avatar," which continues to attract audiences to lucrative 3-D screens, posted the second-biggest second weekend for any movie on record, behind only "The Dark Knight." It so far has grossed an impressive $212.3 million domestically.
Overseas, it took in a robust $145 million, including a very strong launch in Japan. Its worldwide total is $617.3 million in just 10 days, making it very likely to be only the fourth picture in history to top $1 billion worldwide. What seemed like a very risky $430-million investment by 20th Century Fox and two partners in producing and marketing "Avatar" now looks like it will prove to be a lucrative choice.
It was a huge weekend for Fox, as the studio's "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel," which it financed with New Regency for $70 million, grossed $77.1 million from its debut on Wednesday through Sunday. Overseas, "Alvin" grossed a strong $36.5 million in 42 foreign markets.
In particularly good news for Fox, "Squeakquel" got an average audience grade of A, according to market research firm CinemaScore. That means word of mouth should be stellar.
"I remember when we put ["Avatar" and "Alvin"] five days apart, I was a little nervous," said Fox's senior vice president of domestic distribution, Bert Livingston. "The market expanded to fit our movies and 'Sherlock.' "
Warner Bros.' new version of the British detective, portrayed by Robert Downey Jr., had a very good start given its $90-million production budget. Unlike the family-heavy "Alvin," audiences for "Sherlock Holmes" were evenly split between those over and under 30.
In the 17 foreign markets where it also debuted, "Sherlock" collected an additional $26 million.
However, its average domestic audience grade was a B, indicating that it may decline faster than "Alvin" or "Avatar" in the coming days.
The $22.1-million start for Universal Pictures' "It's Complicated," which stars Meryl Streep, wasn't particularly impressive given its budget of about $85 million. However, previous romantic comedies directed by Nancy Meyers such as "The Holiday" and "Something's Gotta Give" have ultimately grossed many times their opening. "It's Complicated," which got an average grade of A-, should do the same.
"Up in the Air" received a B, a surprisingly low mark given its overwhelmingly positive reviews and awards recognition. Moore said the movie's ambiguous ending may have led audiences to give it a mixed grade while exiting theaters. Paramount and its financing partner Montecito Co. are already in good financial shape, however, as the $25-million production has grossed $24.5 million so far.
Studios typically get about half of ticket revenue, with the rest going to theaters.
Weinstein Co.'s head of operations, David Glasser, said that adding so many theaters for "Nine" on this crowded weekend may have been a mistake, as evidenced by its dismal take. The financially troubled studio will pull back the adaptation of the Broadway musical to larger cities, where it played better.
The coming week should be lucrative for all movies, particularly those with good buzz, as most children are out of school, many adults are off work, and no new films are scheduled to debut.
"I suspect that from today through next weekend, the box office is going to continue to be unbelievable," said Universal's president of domestic distribution, Nikki Rocco.

The unfortunate thing about posting "recent history" records is that inflation distorts the figures represented. Also, you have to remember that many who saw "Avatar" also saw it in IMAX 3D which is more costly than purchasing a regular ticket. That could account for the over-the-top sales that beat out "The Dark Knight" on the regular big screen.

According to iVillage Health, breakfast may be nothing more than a heap of extra calories. "You know all of those mornings where you dutifully shoveled cardboard-tasting shredded wheat into your mouth (when all you really wanted was a cup of coffee), because you've been told a million times that there's no better way to start your day -- especially if you're watching your waistline? Well, a new study just found that breakfast does not help you keep your weight in check because it does nothing but add more calories to your day." READ MORE

Video: What Phish Sounds Like to People That Don't Like Phish
I had to pause this video I was laughing so hard.

I had to pause this video I was laughing so hard.
(via @YEMblog)
Still better than Bieber.
lol..so funny. I kinda wish they did sound like this..then I wouldn't spend thousands of dollars a year abandoning my wife and children to see them.
It sounds the same as the White Stripes except that it's not loud enough.
I did not know of this phish musical group before but I enjoyed this video very much and find them to be quite talented. I especially like the very modern dress the drummer wears.
Interesting … it's the same way the Dave Matthews Band sounds to anyone who's not white.
The comments section of any article is pure poison. I've never experienced before the internet came around so many people spewing such vitriol at strangers.
Wait, you mean there are people who don't like Phish?
So they take out half the music, and alter the voice and …then people say it is why they don't like it. This isn't at all what Phish sounds like, just some mean joke.
So I think this sums up Phish Phans pretty well… Phish Phans are soooo deep!
Its meant to be funny, you know? Funny. Can all you phans please remove the 2×4 from your butts?
Perfect! It's just like how math looks to morons! "If I can't figure it out, it must be stupid! It can't possibly be that I'm the idiot!" So many confirmations on this site.
Two things: I can only HOPE and PRAY that Phish someday covers this "song." That would be an epic event and totally hilarious. Secondly, I've never understood why Phish fans get so upset when other people don't like Phish. That gives us all a better chance at getting tickets in the lottery! Hello!! Plus, if everyone loved them, you'd suddenly be all pissed off about how mainstream they've become, that they've sold out by playing the MTV music awards or whatever. Put your thinking caps on, people. It's a GOOD thing that Phish has a small audience. Almost everyone I know thinks they suck. Woo hoo!!!
I don't mind Phish, but I'm not a real fan, either. But this isn't particularly funny to me, and certainly not funny enough to make me pause it to control my laughter. And yes, the 'joke' does go on far too long.
The title of the article ought to read "Video: What Phish Sounds Like to People *Who* Don't Like Phish".
fuckin brillian
I want to start a Phish/Rush cover band called Phush.
Your favorite band sucks.
actually, in my humble opinion, ALL music sucks. get a life people
I'm kinda horny.

Dog cruelty case may settle
Offer made by director of Bethlehem society
LITCHFIELD — Bethlehem town attorney Anthony DiPentima will recommend that town officials accept a settlement offer today from Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of Connecticut Director Frederick Acker in a custody hearing for 65 dogs seized from his Bethlehem shelter last month.
DiPentima declined to discuss the details of the offer made Wednesday by Acker's lawyer, Alice McQuaid.

The interview process had three steps: phone and skype calls, homework, and an on-site interview. The homework was given after a skype call and it involved writing a piece of code for a problem in a language of your choice. The on-site interview took place in Playa Vista, CA. It started at 10:30am and finished at about 2:30pm. (I was given an option to schedule it such that it fits the first or second half of the day.) I spoke with five people for about 45 minutes with each. A typical interview session involved technical questions, coding problems, and a discussion about my experience and the role. Had a nice lunch. At the beginning and the end of the interview I was given a tour of the building where the company is located.

The interview process consisted of an initial Skype interview where the reporting manager asked about my current role and explained the role which I was interviewing for. After a successful Skype interview, Rubicon Project flew me over for an in-person interview with the direct manager, his supervisors and the Production Systems Engineer team.
The interview process took almost a full day. I was scheduled to sit with each person for approximately 45 mins. When I arrived I met with HR and was given a tour of the site and quick overview of the company. Everyone was very friendly and eased the interview process.

A recruiter from the company reached out to me, citing that my resume had been received through a recruiting service.

Everyone was very friendly and relaxed, and generally seemed happy with their work at the company.Interview Questions
Negotiation DetailsThe company was initially planning to offer a salary for the job that was a fair amount lower than my existing salary. I had a candid discussion with them that I would evaluate the salary and benefits as one package, as my current company's benefits were different and less valuable than the ones they were offering. Eventually they came back with a salary that was very close to my current. They also allowed me to work from a different office than the one I interviewed at, as there is a strong cultural of distributed work teams at the company. So overall, I did not really have to negotiate much, and the process was pretty smooth on my end.Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview

My resume was passed along to HR by a friend who works there. I was contacted in late April for an interview on Friday, May 2. The interview was an all day affair with about 25 potential interns most of whom were computer science majors, like myself. The basic schedule of the day was like this: arrive at 10 and take a tour of the facilities and then hear form current employees and even one of the co-founders. We were provided with a catered lunch, which was delicious and is free everyday to all employees! We then heard from the various mentors who were looking for interns and who we would be working under if we got the internship. We were then interviewed one on one.
I interviewed with Mac and Marcus, who were extremely friendly and provided me with a great interview experience. They started off by asking me what I would like to be working on said if I was selected they would try to tailor my internship around what I wanted to be learning. After I had finished the technical question and was talking to them, Mac gave me some really simple, but very helpful advice on how to make my programs run faster. I really appreciated that since it is something that I will be able to use anywhere. I heard back the following Thursday that I received the internship.Interview Questions

To be honest, I hadn't know much about tRP before the interview and was expecting a very tough interview since it was a small-medium company. But on the contrary, the interviews were really simple. I discussed about my experiences, academic projects and was barely asked a few technical questions. I guess it might be because the company didn't a formal process for hiring interns. I was given the option to interview with more than 1 team.

How real is cultural imperalism?:
26 Antiteilchen, Sun, 16th Mar '14 12:10:03 PM from inside a tank
And who gets to control what imported media gets officially translated, distributed, and marketed?That question isn't limited to imported media. If we use the domination of culture by some actors, "cultural imperialism" happens inside a culture just as much as between them. I would even argue that we have more freedom now in what kind of media we consume than ever before. If you're just limited to stuff from your own culture you cannot decide at all.
I'm a Chinese-Malaysian as well, however I do believe cultural imperialism exists in some way or another. The mechanism of such isn't exactly simple. First, there's UN's various charters and the like. Most of them are based on western values and seldom takes eastern values into account. When they are passed, most nations would ratify them. With that, western values would certainly replace local ones at one extent or another. This is one way of cultural imperialism can be done directly by governments. Second, commercial cultural exports does not export only goods, but also values that carried within them. However, in this case, it only works if the people are affected. Finally, foreign exposure of foreign culture. When it comes to tourists, students, foreign workers and the like, they will get exposed with foreign culture and likely to blend into it. When they return, they will bring said culture back and influence others. Again, this only works if there are people affected this way. These mechanisms are reasons some "public figures" are advocating to be critical to foreign stuff. While this is true, I'd say that local material is not so different.

Indiana SoloCare to elaborate with the 'western and eastern values'? I'm curious.
29 Queen Panic, Thu, 20th Mar '14 1:30:30 PM from Dublin Relationship Status: Barbecuing
From what I know, the west tends to value individualism, getting things done yourself and equality, while the east tends to value humility, the greater good and being a part of a group where everyone helps everyone else.
Well, there's a lot more overlap than you'd think. The West, for example, isn't as individualistic as most people would believe. The main difference is that we outwardly reject a hierarchy while subconsciously believing in one, and our closest equivalent to the Asian concept of "losing face" is "dependability", which serves roughly the same purpose.

Indiana SoloYea, I really don't think we're as different as people like to say. While western culture is sometimes more individualistic, we readily form factions and groups. Ands I'd say we still follow the whole losing face thing. People always want to have the last word, and being proven wrong often seen as a insult. No one wants to admit they were wrong ever.

Tik, tok, feed the Крок.I'd be a lot more sympathetic to the view that Western conceptions of human rights pervade the UDHR and UN Charter if it wasn't an argument very often used by repressive governments to justify their policies. China, for instance, loves it, as does North Korea. It sees to me that - say - freedom from torture or the right to vote are pretty universal. Also, there's quite a few economic rights in the UDHR; most notably Article 23 (the right to work), Article 25 (the right to "a standard of living adequate for one's health"), and Article 26 (the right to free elementary education). What are economic rights if not rubrics for assessing the performance of a given society?

I suppose hearing that women are at fault for getting raped, that liberalism is the Anti-Prophet (even when creating a liberal society is part of Vision 2020) and a holier-than-thou by the day society tends to do that to a person. Whenever there's Values Dissonance, it's always "West wrong, East right" when we have anything but the moral high ground. If anyone does.
34 Antiteilchen, Fri, 21st Mar '14 6:32:39 AM from inside a tank
Well, there's a lot more overlap than you'd think.And it's not like all people in the West (or all in the East) agree on one set of values either. Libertarianism and Communism are both Western ideas. As are Fascism and Anarchism. There's no such thing as a fixed set of Western values because "the West" isn't a monolithic block.
while the east tends to value humility, the greater good and being a part of a group where everyone helps everyone else.These would also be Christian values, for example.
China, for instance, loves it, as does North Korea.While officially following an ideology that originated in Europe. It's just an easy way to discredit an idea you don't like by associating it with filthy foreigners.

And it's not like all people in the West (or all in the East) agree on one set of values either. Libertarianism and Communism are both Western ideas. As are Fascism and Anarchism. There's no such thing as a fixed set of Western values because "the West" isn't a monolithic block.I would add there are differences of values within each of those philosophies — there are several forms of each, which vary according to time and location and faction, and that's without even getting into Anarchism.
It's just an easy way to discredit an idea you don't like by associating it with filthy foreigners.The "not made here" view?

Never heard of that before. But it's not restricted to eastern nations. Right wingers from everywhere like to do that. The Swiss Peoples Party likes to discredit the European Human Rights Court (of which we're a member) decisions as foreign meddlers. The Republicans discredit Obamacare as "European Socialism". Not to mention that every leftwing party and movement was discredited as Soviet puppets during the Cold War. It's a tactic used to deflect criticism without engaging it. And it's always done by those with power who like to keep inequalities. If your only cricicsm about an idea is, that it's foreign it means you have no arguments against it.
If I may backtrack the conversation a bit, I'd like to address morals for a bit. Here's the post I'm referencing.
while the east tends to value humility, the greater good and being a part of a group where everyone helps everyone else.
These would also be Christian values, for example.I think that that's kinda an instinctual thing. People argue whether it's the will of god, or just favored by nature, but I can't think of a single culture where that wasn't the majority view(they just have different opinion on who is people). There are certainly people who don't follow the "helping is good" view, but at the same time there are also people who think murder is good, and i don't think anyone would say we don't have an anti murder instinct. Steering back on topic, there is of course the question of how sacred different values are. For example, foreign powers often suppress a lot of decent or morally ambiguous cultural practices, yet on the other hand, I think that many suppressed aspects of certain cultures that no sane man would defend. the issue in the past century or two, and sometimes even today was what is the difference between cultural imperialism and regular law enforcement.
edited 21st Apr '14 8:34:11 PM by iamnotausername
In regards to Japan and it's cultural values, I refer you to these two posts on a particular blog: http://swirlymuffins.blogspot.com/2012/09/conformity-in-japan-good-bad-and-ugly.html?m=1 http://swirlymuffins.blogspot.com/2012/09/conformity-in-japan-good-bad-and-ugly_25.html?m=1 If you read that, you'll see a lot of overlap: in particular, the second link gives a good example of blame-shifting and tone argument, which I see a lot in America as well. But what makes it interesting is how it relates to the overall context of Japan and their desire to maintain a uniform society and culture.
Cultural imperialism in a "we must annihilate their culture or we will die" or "ours is superior to yours" doesn't exist anymore, except in North Korea.I don't know, I've seen those arguments put forward plenty of times by Internet Atheists.
Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.

Linktone Announces Listing Of Shares On Australian Securities Exchange
SINGAPORE, Sept. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Linktone Ltd. (NASDAQ: LTON) ("Linktone" or the "Company"), a provider of media and entertainment content and services in key strategic markets in Asia, today announced that the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") has approved the listing of its shares, in the form of CHESS Depositary Interests ("CDIs"), on the ASX. The Company's CDIs will begin trading on the ASX under the ticker symbol "LTL" on Friday, September 13, 2013. The Company's American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") will continue to trade on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol "LTON".
Each CDI represents ten ordinary fully paid shares of the Company (each ADS also represents ten ordinary shares of the Company). The Company noted that no additional ordinary shares have been issued and no additional capital has been raised in connection with this listing. Holders of the Company's NASDAQ-listed ADSs will be able to convert their shares into CDIs, and CDI holders will be able to convert their shares into ADSs, should they wish to do so. Additional information on the share conversion process can be found under the Shareholder Services section of Linktone's investor relations website at: www.linktone.com/en/ir/shareholder-services.html
Commenting on the announcement, Mr. Hary Tanoesoedibjo, Linktone's Chief Executive Officer, said, "Having carefully reviewed our options among the major exchanges in the Asia-Pacific region, we believe the ASX provides an ideal listing venue for our shares in light of the market's strong profile, liquidity and proximity to our core markets. This dual listing on the ASX gives us both the opportunity to reach out to investors who are located closer to and have greater familiarity with our key operating regions and an avenue to explore further opportunities in the media and entertainment industry in Australasia, directly in line with our multi-platform, multi-genre and multi-territory strategy."

"This dude just told me how much he is into yoga and how he is starting to teach and that I should start practicing so I can 'lose some weight.'"

From chuck wagon to roadside diner to epicurean cook-off, chili has been an all-American favorite for well over a century. Here at EatingWell, we haven't been making chili for quite that long—but we do have some recipes that date back to the 1990s. We have chili recipes made with beef, lamb, chicken, and even some excellent vegetarian chili recipes too. Many of these recipes involve long, slow cooking on the back of the stove—just what you want on a chilly (get it?) fall weekend. (Got more time? Make chili in your crock pot.) There are times, though—and tonight is one of them—when I want to go home and make chili for dinner. In 30 minutes. (In the...read full post »
It's a busy time of year—the weather is getting cooler and everything just seems to speed up. It affects people differently: while I'm just trying to keep warm, for instance, my sister works hard and likes to get things accomplished. Although she doesn't come right out and say it (very often), I think she thinks I'm a little bit lazy. Just because my motto is "There must be an easier way to do this," that doesn't mean I'm lazy: I just appreciate a good shortcut. This month's shortcut: dinner recipes with an ingredient list I can count on one hand.
Each of the dinners here has just five ingredients (not counting oil, water, salt and pepper, which I don't—those are just things you never seem to run out of). That kind of simplicity means a lot less work. I only have to remember five...read full post »
Remember when chipotle was an exotic ingredient? Now we have Chipotle (the restaurant) on every other corner. Americans love Mexican food when we eat out. Mexican chain restaurants grew twice as fast as other chains in 2009, according to a recent report. I love nachos dripping with melted cheese as much as you do, but fat and calorie levels are sky-high on many of those oversized restaurant platters of enchiladas or chimichangas slathered in cheese and sauces. It's enough to make you cry into your margarita. Instead, let's focus on the bright, fresh tastes of authentic Mexican food, delivered by these recipes for quick, healthier Mexican dinners you can make at home.

Kneesocks and plaid skirts—that's what "back to school" conjures up for me at this time of year.

Product Information
- Battle Sheep from Blue Orange Games
- We recommend this product for ages 7 and up
What It Is
Battle Sheep is a strategy game where players move their sheep around a game board, trying to occupy the most spaces. The game comes with 16 pasture boards and 64 sheep tokens in four colors, each with a different funny sheep on it. The game is for two to four players, and each player gets 16 sheep tokens of the same color and four pasture boards. On the pasture boards, each hexagon represents one pasture. Players take turns arranging their pasture boards together to create the playing field. Then, each player places their stack of sheep tokens on the outside perimeter of the playing field. On your turn, split one of your sheep stacks into two stacks, and you can have however many tokens you want in each stack as long as they both contain at least one token. Then move only one of the stacks as far as it can go in a straight line until it either reaches another sheep stack or reaches the perimeter of the playing field. You can only move in a straight line. You also can't combine or jump over other sheep. If your sheep stack is blocked on all sides by other sheep, it's trapped and can no longer be moved. When all players can no longer move any of their sheep, the game is over, and the player who occupies the most pastures wins.
Is It Fun?
This is a pretty easy-to-play and quick-playing game. Players must think strategically to spread as many of their sheep as they can across the board while also trying to block opponents' sheep so they can't move.
Who It's For
Battle Sheep is for ages 7 and up.
What To Be Aware Of
On some of our pasture boards, the black bottom was peeling off, which isn't that big of a deal, but it does prevent those boards from laying flat unless you go ahead and peel off the bottom. Those boards won't be as thick as the others, but you can still play with them.
