In just its second full season, Happy Endings has joined joining the conversation for Funniest Show on Television. For the uninitiated, it follows Modern Family on ABC on Wednesday nights and has a Friends-esque ensemble set-up: three girls, three guys, some ex-lovers, some current lovers. But unlike Friends, there's an underlying running commentary that these 30-somethings don't have anything remotely close to resembling their shit together. The show moves at an Arrested Development-like pace, with one-liners, daydreams, and confessions coming at you in a machine gun ratatat.
Of this clan, Eliza Coupe, who plays Jane, has emerged. She's the preppy popular girl you knew in high school, all grown-up and neurotic and insecure and massively control freak-y. She dresses and talks like a prep, but her manic OCD shines through in almost every scene. And there's an awkward sexual interplay between Coupe and her show husband, Brad (Damon Wayans Jr.)—their frisky dynamic has been a growing sub-plot this season. The show is blessed with a surprisingly game cast, including 24 survivor Elisha Cuthbert as Jane's sister Alex, a pretty but also neurotic girly-girl, and Saturday Night Live castoff Casey Wilson as the perpetually single Penny. But it's Coupe who steals scenes each week with gawky facial expressions, timely eye rolls, and a delivery that straddles a magical line between cluelessness and wonderment.
Off-screen, Coupe is different from Jane. She tweets about "dropping heat" in stripper heels and a stalker-ish love for actor Michael Fassbender. That love has morphed into a Funny or Die series called Why Won't You Talk to Me, where Coupe negotiates a complicated relationship with a magazine cut-out of Fassy. Happy Endings cast members pop up and it's shot, edited, and uploaded from the set of the show. GQ spoke with Coupe from her home in Los Angeles about her show, her obsessions, and her true feelings for Michael Fassbender.
GQ: You grew up in New Hampshire. Is that a funny state to grow up in?
Eliza Coupe: I think it is. Growing up in the freezing cold, middle of nowhere small town, you can't help but take note of all the crazy characters around you. When you sleep, they kind of infiltrate your brain and when you wake up you're doing voices. So you kind of can't help it. There's such an odd, eclectic group of people that make up the town of Plymouth, New Hampshire. I don't think I could avoid not coming out of there with a pretty good sense of humor.
GQ: You know what's not funny about that state? The slogan, "Live Free or Die."
Eliza Coupe: I know, but you wanna know what is funny? I have that tattooed on my arm.
GQ: That's what's tattooed on your arm? I noticed one near your wrist.
Eliza Coupe: That says "Live Free or Die." In a beautiful, cursive font. And I have a big feather taking up the inside of my arm and I have clock gears on the backside of my arm.
GQ: Those two things have something to do with New Hampshire as well?
Eliza Coupe: Sure. No, not really. Here's the thing that's sad. Prisoners are putting that [slogan] on the license plates. So they're sitting there, going "live free or die," minute after minute, hour after hour for all day. But I'm so New Hampshire, so I had to get something. I thought about getting an outline of the state but then I went and saw Win Win and the kid has the state of Michigan on his back or whatever. Then I saw some weird guy with a tattoo of California on his neck and I was like "C'mon." I mean I love tattoos as much as the next skank but I'm not a fan of the state of California on your neck.
GQ: What was the first joke you remember telling?
Eliza Coupe: My older brother always tells me I changed as a person when I saw Ace Ventura. Because when I saw Ace Ventura, I became obsessed. I watched the movie as many times as I had to—back then, you couldn't go on the internet and find the script—so I watched it as many times as I could to write my own script of Ace Ventura. Notebook pieces of paper were all over the place. And I'd practice it if my parents had company, or they had a dinner party and it got so obnoxious, I think my parents got a bit concerned because I wouldn't stop doing the voices. Everyone was so annoyed with me. I vowed to myself to never do it again and now when I try to do it, the words don't even come out. Tragic. But that was the first time I started telling jokes and becoming obsessed with comedy. But the first joke I ever told was...there were three men in the desert and one had water, one had food and one had a car door. So one was like "Hey, what do you have water for?" "If I get thirsty, I can drink it." "What do you have food for?" "If I get hungry, I can eat it." "Well what do you have a car door for?" "If it gets hot, I can roll down the window." They were in a desert, get it?
GQ: Yeah, I get it. What were you four?
Eliza Coupe: No, I was 18 years old. Almost a full-grown woman.
GQ: In school were you the class clown?
Eliza Coupe: I did do some very crazy shit. I was such a tomboy. We used to take firecrackers and we put them on the G.I. Joes. Because you know how they were attached, almost like with rubber bands where the waist is? You put the firecracker in there, where you pull the legs and the body apart and you twist it around that little rubber band. When it's all tight, you light it and let it go and this thing spins and the fireworks go off. Now that I think about it, it's quite horrible. Figurines of army people looking like they're blown up. That's horrible. That's horrible. Here's the thing: I wasn't the popular one, but I wasn't the unpopular one. I made sure that instead of people making fun of me, like every comedian probably says, I made fun of myself first so they would get distracted and just laugh. I was pretty brutally picked on for a while growing up. It was always the really pretty girls, the hot girls and then there was me. So I had to do something to get any sort of attention. I became like the "best friend" to the guys. I was the "friend" character.
GQ: Did you go to the principal's office?
Eliza Coupe: Yeah, I got a lot of in-school suspensions. I was very disruptive. I was horrible. I didn't learn like all the other kids. I had to sometimes take my tests out in the hallways because I couldn't focus. But, my teachers would come see me in the plays and were like "I don't understand how you can focus and be in the moment in a play and you go into math class and you can't focus." That's just how my brain works. It was hard. I was made fun of so much. For being so different. I got in fist fights with guys. I was getting made fun of so much, my Dad got me boxing gloves. So he taught me how to fight and I ended up punching the captain of our football team.
GQ: You spent years doing work at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater in New York. Is that where you found your comedic voice?
Eliza Coupe: I went from New Hampshire, to Cal Arts [California Institute for the Arts], stayed for four years, got my BFA, had no money, tried for two months to get my head shot into places in L.A. and was like "I hate Los Angeles." I packed up and went back to New Hampshire and had to go wait tables in my hometown. I saved up a bit of money and moved to New York. My friend was living in Queens with three other roommates and I ended up living in a large closet. I'd written a one person show [The Patriots] a while back, with these characters I'd had in my head and my goal was to go to UCB, get a show at UCB, audition for SNL, get on SNL, be on that show for seven years, then go break into dramas and be a movie star. That was my plan. I'd been saying it since I was four years old. I was waiting tables yet again, working random farmers markets, a bathroom attendant at Heartland Brewery in Times Square, a nanny on the Upper West Side for four kids. I had no friends, no life, so every night I'd either go to People's Improv Theater or UCB and I would go from when they started their first show at seven o'clock and sit and watch every show to eleven o'clock. I couldn't afford to take classes so I would sit and observe and think, How am I going to piece my show together?
GQ: Your facial expressions are incredible—almost mime-like. With the Ace Ventura love, it all makes sense. I guess the question is...have you ever mimed before?
Eliza Coupe: I have not. I went to a pretty avant-garde art school and we had to do a lot of crazy gesture work. It was all about telling the story through your body. As much as I resisted that, I came from a place that I just wanted to do comedy and I was going to a school that was focused on doing avant garde, at the time I was thinking, bullshit. Whether I wanted it or not, I definitely took it in. With Happy Endings, my character going into the first season...when they told me they wanted me to audition for Jane, I've never played a character like that in my life. What's funny is, I'm very similar to her, but very different. I walked in [to the audition] with a black tank top, big chunky boots, and my tattoos. But I think I realized that this character is not going to get the punchlines on every show, which is what I was used to on Scrubs. My character had a lot of great set-ups and I'd come in with a dry delivery. So I was very used to being the joke-guy. It still is extremely challenging but I sorta redefined my own character this year. My lines weren't written with the jokes in them and so I had to make the most out of them. Milk every single line and scene. There were scenes where I barely said anything and I thought, If I can do anything, just keep listening and reacting.
GQ: It seems to be working.
Eliza Coupe: I have fun, I really have fun doing this part. What's really interesting to me is that I don't know if I'd say that when we started this show. I was very at a loss on how to play this part and it took a lot of...you know, trying to find it. I think everyone, especially this season, every character has grown into how they're supposed to live in each of the actors.
GQ: Jane's quite preppy and controlling. But she also has a kinky side. Is she a prep-kink?
Eliza Coupe: Oh, totally. She and Brad are fucking nuts in the sack. Crazy. Crazy. They're crazy in bed. Damon Wayans Jr. and I joke about it, we love making them completely off the rails. But it's all behind closed doors and we just allude to this idea that we're complete animals.
GQ: What's in their bedside drawer?
Eliza Coupe: He and I come up with so many things. I'm sure there was an assortment of lotions, that are not for your hands or your legs. Definitely some objects that are very interesting.
GQ: Motorized perhaps.
Eliza Coupe: Definitely some motorized objects. Some feathers.
GQ: Lets talk about Michael Fassbender.
Eliza Coupe: [Laughs] Okay.
GQ: Do you love him?
Eliza Coupe: What's funny is, I respect the guy as an actor. Do I love him? No. I've been so jaded by the big wall behind Oz being taked down, where every actor is just a person. Growing up in New Hampshire, I was so freaking obsessed with actors it got really creepy. Thank God I didn't live in Hollywood, or I'd have a restraining order as a five year old. I couldn't separate in my mind that they were a person. But they are. Anyway, that being said, I think Fassbender is a phenomenal actor and not bad to look at, but what's funny is, I haven't even seen Shame. So everybody thinks I'm obsessed with him because of the size of what's between his legs but I'm not. I haven't even seen it.
GQ: I read a funny Fassbender headline the other day: "Did Fassbender Penis Cause Oscar Snub?"
Eliza Coupe: There are so many things wrong with that! All the words in that headline. Even the word head.
GQ: Anything planned for when Happy Endings goes on hiatus for the summer?
Eliza Coupe: I'm trying to book a movie for the summer, which is always the plan. I also have some projects I'm working on. I write as well and do all my own stuff. I have a couple of screenplays I've written myself and one I've written with my writing partner who's in London, and then Damon Wayans Jr. and I are creating a movie together.
GQ: What's that about?
Eliza Coupe: I can't tell ya. Not yet.
Happy Endings airs Wednesday at 9:30pm EST on ABC.

|An Empirical Study on Factors of Knowledge Sharing in Cross-disciplinary Teams
【Abstract】 With the popularity of the concept of Knowledge Management, more and more enterprises have realized the importance of knowledge, which has already become enterprises'Economic resources and the source of competitive advantages. In the age of knowledge economy, intensified competition and complex work that faced by enterprises make the team working style a favor for them. In fact, the team working form is not new at all, and its performance depends on the knowledge sharing among team members to some extent. Therefore, how to create high-performance teams and to share knowledge within the teams become a broad concern of both entrepreneurs and scholars.Knowledge Sharing has been recently proved to be vital to as well as a difficulty of the successful Knowledge Management. However, it is affected by multiple different factors in light of space differentiation. These factors play different roles in the process of Knowledge Sharing. The great flexibilities in forms, functions and operations of Cross-disciplinary teams provide favorable conditions for sharing knowledge. The knowledge sharing effects are different according to different Environmental and personal factors. Currently, the researches on knowledge sharing factors in cross-disciplinary teams are really rare, and this thesis gives a conceptual model and seven main hypotheses to further study this issue. Both statistical and case study methods are applied in the thesis.The thesis is aimed to explore how each factor influence on the knowledge sharing process in cross-disciplinary teams, trying to provide enterprises some useful ideas in efficient team management and comprehensive knowledge management. The innovation of this paper mainly exists in three aspects as following. Firstly, it integrates the researches on of both cross-disciplinary teams and knowledge sharing. Secondly, the qualitative and quantitative methods are effectively combined in the paper, and the results of the study show that atmosphere, connections and personal abilities are the most important factors in knowledge sharing of cross-disciplinary teams. Thirdly, it gives a try to explain the complex correlations among the factors.In the thesis, chapter 1 gives a short introduction of the researching background and significances. Chapter 2 reviews the domestic and foreign theories and literature relating to this study. On the basis of reviewing related models, Chapter 3 puts forward the theoretical model and hypotheses and scales Chapter 4 surveys people who have experienced the cross-disciplinary teamwork by interviewing and questionnaire, and the data are analyzed by SPSS 16.0. Chapter 5 is the conclusion of the study, which suggests enterprises put more emphasis on these factors, such as team atmosphere, connections and personal abilities.

This is a Ford F150 with two wheel drive. When applying brakes a slight clunk is heard. If released slightly, there is a chattering as if the brakes are not working right. Also hear the noise when driving at low speeds and no braking applied. The truck is lightly used. Does the two wheel drive version have an IWE solenoid? I read about the many problems that 4 wheel drive F150s have with the IWE Solenoid but I don't believe that the 2 wheel drive version has one.

Loose brake pads or missing mounting hardware. Caliper mounting incorrect for a couple of things.
ReplyLakefly6, December 29, 2013, 15:24Rookie
I'll pass your comments along. Not sure how something might have gotten loose but its possible. Conincidentally, this started after the battery was replaced. Is it possible something electronic got out of wack and needs to be reset?
Replypushrod, December 29, 2013, 15:34Master
Not to my knowledge. NO brake work been done on this truck, at all?
ReplyLakefly6, December 29, 2013, 16:31Rookie
The owner checks out his brakes regularly, cleaning them, etc., but it has been months he did anything since he doesn't do anything in the cold. This is a very recent but I suppose that something could have worked loose. It isn't constant either and we don't hear anything when backing up if that matters.

Hi everyone- been a long time since I've been here. After losses in months, I am now seeking fertility help and going through many tests.
One is the Clomid Challenge and I am looking for some people who might know a little so I came back here :)
Day three tests FSH 13.7
All other blood drawn tests on this day were "normal" they say, but this was elevated.
I start Clomid challenge on Day 5 through 10.
What numbers am I looking for? What is the normal? Should it go up or down? I have no idea what to be shooting for (or what would be acceptable for me)

|Borders Books
Today's bookmark is from the now defunct Borders bookstore.
I remember when Borders opened in Boston, I was very excited because they were big, vibrant had a great selection of newspapers from outside the region as well as a massive book selection. The only other "superstore" that I was aware of was Barnes & Noble who I didn't much care for aesthetically. I didn't like the stuffiness and the dimly lit stores (well the few I was ever in).
Borders simply outgrew themselves and just prior to going out of business they operated more than 500 stores in the US.

Is that fruit swimming in the ocean? Well it may look like fruit, but it's actually a pineapplefish ( Cleidopus gloriamaris ). Like the hard outer part of a pineapple, this fish also has an outer shell made of pineapple-like yellow scales. But that is where the similarity to the fruit disappears. The pineapplefish has glowing organs that can be used to find prey at night, the color of which may...Read more

Working Smart and Safe
Working Smart, continued
Work stresses. If your work is especially physical, hazardous, or stressful, talk with your doctor about whether your job duties will put your baby at risk. For instance, are you required to do any heavy lifting, standing, or walking? During your 1st trimester, your provider might suggest cutting back on your hours or duties. And if you have trouble with balance as your pregnancy progresses, you might want to stop working during the last few weeks. In addition, if you're exposed to potential hazards, such as toxic substances or X-rays, your provider might suggest that you request a reassignment to an area that's safer for you and your baby.
Just as high levels of stress aren't good for your baby, they're not good for your health either, so it's important to organize your work schedule so that you can rest more during the day and keep regular hours. Work out interpersonal problems as well, because they can add to stress on the job.

Spirit shrouds and monster missions and evolving items, oh my!
Craig Knapp, Producer for Everquest Live (not to be confused with "Everquest 2 Not Live: Down for Expansion Update This Morning), offers his insight on the upcoming "Depths of Darkhollow" expansion.
MMORPG.com: For all the veteran EQ'ers, could you sum up what makes this expansion different from the others?
Craig Knapp: When we started working on Depths of Darkhollow we wanted to stay true to what made EverQuest so unique in the first place, innovation. We wanted to make sure that each feature was something that hadn't been done in the MMO industry and I think we've done that exceptionally well. In addition, I'm particularly proud that each of these features appeals to players of all level ranges and players of any play-style. As anyone in the gaming industry will tell you, that's not easy to do.

If the name means "blank slate," you know it has to have a good backstory!Actually, we know it has an immersive storyline because Richard "the father of MMOGs" Garriott is involved! Since TR is still a long ways out, this preview focuses on what Destination Games / NC Soft developers are concentrating on: namely a pure PvE, soloer-friendly, story-stuffed sci-fi high-octane MMOG with an accent on open-ended, class role-defying gameplay (whoa, there's a lot of adjectives there!).
"With Tabula Rasa, Destination Games is trying to do something a little bit different with the genre, taking certain elements from the first person shooter, and fusing them with role-playing. This isn't to say that the game is going to be highly twitch-oriented, where dexterity rules the roost, as this simply isn't the case. The game will still be focused on stats and character advancement like one would expect to find in an RPG, but the developers want to find a way to include some of the visceral, psychological elements of the FPS to include in the game. By doing this, they hope to provide a more intense, fast-paced experience for players."
Sit back and enjoy Armchair Empire's Tabula Rasa preview!
Lord British - King of Saturn.
The Space Review has posted an interview with Richard "Lord British" Garriot discussing his involvement with space tourism. Marvin the Martian created an earth shattering kaboom before uttering these immortal words:
"Richard Garriott lives in Austin, Texas, and is a producer at computer gaming company NCSoft. He has had many hit computer gaming titles going back to the dawn of the personal computer age in 1979, including his famed Ultima series. Less well known has been his quiet role as vice chairman of Space Adventures, which includes some notable firsts. The Space Review conducted an email interview with him after his first space PowerPoint presentation at the Metropolitan Breakfast Club in Austin."

Lord British Speaks! You Listen!
MMORPG.com has posted a Tabula Rasa Interview featuring Richard Garriott. Verily and forsooth, we say unto you that his holiness, Lord British, hath spoken and ye peasants hath listened:
"Many know the name Richard Garriott well. Now, deep into his second incarnation of Tabula Rasa, we try to get to know his game as well. Tabula Rasa mixes RPG growth with FPS action into a very unique setting. We came away from E3 with a lot of questions, and this interview answers them."

TVG talks to RG on the QT.
TVG has posted an interview with Starr Long, the producer of Tabula Rasa. All hailed Lord British and then wrote something almost like this:
"Richard Garriott and I (Starr Long) started this project together with other key team members so he has been involved since the beginning. For the first couple of years we took the project down a path that was more fantasy oriented, with a very unique combat system and focused entirely on instanced adventure spaces for small groups. After bringing it to E3 in 2004 we realised that the setting and visuals were getting in the way of the game we wanted to make so we decided to make some major changes. We moved the game towards a more science fiction direction for the visuals and setting. We also changed the design towards a focus on large persistent battlefields where player's actions can impact the state of the battle. We also changed combat to feel much more like a shooter-style game while retaining RPG systems underneath everything. This means while you are shooting your weapon via a mouse click and cycling through weapons like a shooter, the outcome of each shot is being determined mainly by your character's skills that you have built up over time."

Can you believe they've been asked 37 times?
EverQuest Vault has posted the 37th edition of their Ask SoE Column. Combined with appropriate exercise, we're certain that reading the
following will give you rock hard 6-pack abs in only minutes a day
"Part of the changes coming to spells and combat arts is to adjust how much damage the various classes do in relation to each other. Can you tell us how the different subclasses will rank in relative damage potential?"

Blizzard is your friend.
GamesIndustry.biz chatted with Richard Garriott about the success of World of Warcraft and how it affects the industry. We are unreliably informed that Tom Cruise pumped his fists in the air, and
declared his undying love for the following quote from the story:
"World of Warcraft has been very good for my business," Garriott told the ELSPA International Games Summit in London this morning. "It's brought in a whole new segment of people who played Blizzard games, but never played an MMOG before."

The company that makes the Nap Nanny – a device marketed as a portable recliner for infants to sleep on – has refused to recall the product, even after the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported 70 complaints, including 5 deaths. So now, in an unusual move, four major retailers have announced they will recall the Nap Nanny themselves.
Amazon.com, Buy Buy Baby, Diapers.com and Toys "R" Us/Babies "R" Us had already agreed earlier this month to stop selling the product. Now they are offering customers a chance to return the Nap Nanny.
On its website, Toys "R" Us said, "Consumers should stop using this product immediately and return the product to your nearest Toys 'R' Us/Babies 'R' Us for a refund or store credit."
The devices sold for around $125.
CPSC spokesman Scott Wolfson praised the companies.
"The retailers were great. They were not obligated to carry out this recall," he said. It's estimated that 150,000 of the Nap Nanny have been purchased since the product came on the market in 2009.
The Nap Nanny was created by mom and Philadelphia sportscaster Leslie Gudel, who sold it through her company, Baby Matters. CPSC said it had been negotiating with Baby Matters for a mandatory recall, but Gudel refused to go along, contending the product is safe.
In email, Gudel told ABC News, "Baby Matters is disappointed to hear that four retailers have chosen to voluntarily recall the Nap Nanny. As I've said before, the loss of an infant is an unthinkable tragedy, and I am truly heartbroken for the families who have lost a child. But when the Nap Nanny has been used properly, no infant has ever suffered an injury requiring medical attention."
Gudel said parents have misused the product by placing the device on a table or in a crib, or not strapping in the infant. Initial versions of the Nap Nanny were recalled and redesigned in 2010 after the first reported infant death. The sides were raised, warnings adding, and an instructional video was added to the website.
The CPSC said, however, injuries and deaths continued. The agency believes that the Nap Nanny contains defects in design, warning and instruction, "which pose a substantial risk of injury or death to infants."
This month, CPSC took the rare step of suing Baby Matters to force a recall. That lawsuit continues, said the agency.
Spokesman Wolfson told ABC News, "Many smaller mom and pop stores also sold the Nap Nanny, so our lawsuit will continue. CPSC staff is seeking for Baby Matters to provide consumers with a refund of the cost of the Nap Nanny."
Meantime, Gudel shut down her company because, she said, it couldn't afford to continue the fight with the CPSC. She continued to defend the product and told ABC News in her email, "We look forward to presenting our case before a judge who will hear all of the facts."
CPSC however, is urging consumers to return the Nap Nanny if they bought it from one of the retailers now voluntarily recalling the product.

5. The Federal Mortgage Program -- Almost as Successful as the Titanic!
Homeowners drowning under the weight of high mortgage rates and a plunging economy are finding that their rescuer has arrived in a leaky boat without a life ring -- or even a pair of arm floaties. And the lifeline the government did manage to throw out was, apparently, too knotted and twisted for homeowners to untangle.
Indeed, the Obama administration's $275 billion
"Making Home Affordable" program was billed as having the potential to reach up to 9 million troubled homeowners, according to initial estimates. Instead -- according to
President Obama unveiled the
According to the report, just 24% of borrowers eligible for a federal mortgage-modification program have received permanent mortgage modifications. And while 1.6 million homeowners were eligible as of the last report, more than half a million had abandoned the program, seeking other solutions or falling victim to the housing market's collapse. Others have been excluded because properties are vacant, or because owners earn too much money, don't owe enough money or haven't seen home values plunge far enough.Adding injury to insult, since the program's inception, nearly 6 million homes have received foreclosure filings, according to RealtyTrac -- despite a foreclosure-moratorium that predated the program and lasted through March. Fewer than 390,000 homeowners are now in permanent mortgage modifications through the Home Affordable Modification Program. Meanwhile, nearly 530,000 participants have canceled mortgage modifications. Let's put it all another way: Roughly 24% of all borrowers eligible for the mortgage modification have received mortgage modification; by comparison, in 1912, almost 32% of the passengers aboard the Titanic when it struck an iceberg in were saved. There must be a metaphor in there somewhere -- something involving "underwater mortgages" and "sinking ships" and "perfect storms," perhaps?

Classical clarinetist Richard Stoltzman once said, ...I wish I could play Mozart like Bob Kindred plays jazz, referring to his simplicity of tone, directness and emotional truth--all of which can be heard at the weekly brunch at New York's Café Loup which this engaging live disc documents. Kindred got his chops playing with organists Shirley Scott and Groove Holmes, and later in Woody Herman's big band. The brunch and the subsequent gig came about when café owner Lloyd Feit met Kindred on the street in New York and ushered him into his restaurant. Feit proved to be ...read more
Bob Kindred traveled to the bucolic surroundings of Mapleshade's recording studio in rural Maryland to team with pianist Larry Willis for a session of more than 60 minutes' worth of gentle" but not outdated jazz performances. In some respects Kindred is a throwback to Ben Webster and the tender side of Stan Getz. His playing recalls that distinctive rasping timbre and excellent rhythmic momentum that characterized Webster, especially in his later years. But Kindred also shows that he is not unfamiliar with the modern jazz idiom as he interpolates dissonant avant-garde improvisations throughout, such as on of Django Reinhardt's Anouman" ...read more

Lately there have been a slew of "Why Do People Believe In Conspiracy Theories" articles, no doubt a reaction to the slew of conspiracy theories offered after recent tragedies such as the Aurora shooting, the Sandy Hook shooting, and the Boston Marathon bomb attack. The reasons given in these articles mirror many of the thoughts I have expressed when speaking to those with their own conspiracy theories. I frequently argue with conspiracy theorists here on Disinfo, but not for the reasons they typically give ("government shill" is the most common). I certainly believe there are and have been conspiracies within the US government to break the law at the expense of other people's lives for the sake of greed and lust for power. What annoys me about the articles I mentioned is that they have all left out, or at the least severely underestimated, a very important reason people believe conspiracy theories.… Read the rest

Google Maps Error Causes Nicaraguan Invasion
Good job Google. Even better job Nicaraguan military commander Eden Pastora. Via Time's News Feed:
A border between Nicaragua and Costa Rica was off by 3,000 meters on Google Maps. This sparked Nicaraguan military commander Eden Pastora to invade Costa Rica and order troops to take down Costa Rican flags in a disputed territory.
A Google spokesperson said the source of the error was unknown, but two entire countries have felt its effects.
We can't really blame Google for this snafu; we can only blame Pastora for using Google Maps for military business. Official maps for both countries say the land in question belongs to Costa Rica. And, Fast Company reports, Bing had the border correct. Score one for Microsoft, the true victors in this battle.

I have been working with Ben at Shantou MS Toys to put together an English parts list for the F45. I spent a lot of time using online translations until the parts names made sense for both of us (kind of). Here is the finished product.
Using this should ensure we are getting the correct parts. Although there are other places that now have some parts, Ben has all MJX parts at fair prices and I have ordered from him many times.
|Mar 22, 2012, 01:45 AM
Well done thanks for that.
|Mar 22, 2012, 07:11 AM
That is very helpful gordonzo, also first place where I've seen all spare parts available. I kind of hoped that there will be tail motors sold separately, but my wishes were not answered.
Something tells me, I am going to be very happy this weekend.

Well my MJX-F45 has just landed at Melbourne airport and is now going through customs and should be in my greedy little hands on Monday or Tuesday.
I will then put it up against the DH range of helis and give you all my thoughts and findings on both of them.

A comment on the Mjx-f45 transmitter
While the manual is good the transmitter has a gotcha.
It allows 4 modes 1 thru 4 however the mode 2 and 4 have a reversal
Mode 4 works as mode 2 with throttle and rudder on left stick
elevator and aileron on the right. Mode two reverses the rudder and aileron.
Download the manual as the book for the transmitter is of no value.
|Mar 25, 2012, 04:14 PM
I got mine this friday! Been out of town, so I wasn't able to fly it much yet (took it out for a minute or two. First impression is how huge this heli is! Second thought was... this bird needs a lot of place... as you mentioned gordonzo. Field will suite it well. Tomorrow shall be my flying day. For now, I am just going to try hovering in the hall I have next to my apartment. More thoughts later...
|Mar 25, 2012, 06:59 PM
|Mar 26, 2012, 04:24 AM
So I've been flying inside for a while and got it hovering pretty well. Don't know how much to trim, because it seems that it is hovering well. The moves heli had may be due to wind in the room. What I think is not because of the wind, is turning around its axis (rudder?) but that may be due to low battery, need to try few more times. I have AILE 50% ELEV 50% RUDD 40% THRO 45% (I don't hit my 2,5m ceiling and have stick in the middle position). The motor could use some heatsink.
Thanks for info gordonzo, I will set it accordingly to your set up and I shall see. Have you trimmed your heli in any way?
After all I have both my hands made of "idiot". I broke the little "wing" on the tail boom while lifting my heli from the ground. It cracked a little, because I am stupid. Now I need some glue, but not sure what type of plastic is it? Can you recommend some type of glue that should do it?
EDIT: I believe breaking is learning, so I broke the red nob siting on the main shaft... the rest is OK, just the little nob fell off. I cut the power (was at 30cm in the air) than it hit the wall and fell on the nob. Do you think that it is possible to fly without it, or does it have any special reason to be there?
I am going to order some spare parts from the link gordonzo posted. What other spare parts would you recomend buying?
main shaft (the plastic head) 2x
landing skids 1x
swashplate 1x
blade holders 2x
links for flybar (pair) 1x
|Mar 26, 2012, 07:36 AM
Jesus christ I have read your last post Gorduza and nearly choked with laughing!! Man where do you find such sayings?! I believe breaking is learning!! I don't think you need to glue the one in the first pic but the round knob in the second pic might have been used to keep something in place so check before flying without fixing it first!
|Mar 26, 2012, 08:35 AM
Please someone comfirm my list of spare parts, I don't want to buy something I will not need.
Breaking is learning. You can say this about almost everything.
|Mar 26, 2012, 08:37 AM
I would definitely get spare blades of I were you and maybe spare blades for the tail motor as well!! You never know
|Mar 26, 2012, 08:49 AM
The heli came with a pair of main blades and one tail blade. I don't really plan on breaking the blades because from what I've seen on this video (time 0:20), those blades are touhg and flexible. Although I see the blades to bend upwards a little, while flying that may be because they are so flexible.

Women who don't identify as feminists- do you think men and women should be treated as unequal? Why?
Just cause someone isn't a feminist doesn't mean they think men and women are unequal. I think there are some things men are better at and some things women are better at but that doesn't make them unequal. Women have the same rights as men vise versa which is how it should be.
Best Answer
Woman, Man. We are both equals. We each have our strengths, weaknesses, but we are both human. Heart, feelings, emotions, decision making, wanting freedom etc.
Best Answer
I'm going to comment so I can be notified when there are answers here... I'm quite curious myself.

I'm sorry if someone else beat me to this idea, but i was thinking about how most everyone doesnt care for the current announcer voice, and how i want the judge judy voice, and i came to an exciting conclusion for our announcer woes---
Give us a preset, like we have now, or multiple presets, and then have a custom option, where we can import Wav. (or whatever extension) files for each different announcing need! That was i can enjoy [(Edit-) Judge] Judy hammering out justice while old dota fanboys can import the UT2004 voice and enjoy theirs. Thanks much!
Did you say "let us buy our own announcer voices"?
*thumbs up*
"i told you that you would forever rue the day you messed with ZIIIM! now! begin your ruing. i'll just sit here and... watch."
or we could just replace it with "BOOOOM! HEADSHOT!!"

Actually this idea sounds excellent.
This! Is! My! Boomstick!
the ability to buy our own announcer sounds would be another way to make some $$$ for riot, and would actually be a really cool function if when you score a kill your particular announcer voice does the sound for it, for everyone in the game. Like if you have bought a deep booming announcer (ala UT04) when you score a kill, down a turrent, etc then everyone in the game gets that voice telling them how much you owned whoever. Or if you've bought a girly voice like annies, when you get a kill it tells everyone how you enjoyed playing with them or something as condesending
Mmmh...I like the idea of custom sounds. Having the announcer yelling that "OWNED!" doesn't make me happy like me yelling "OHGODHEDIED!" XD
What about custom hero commentary instead of the announcer? Instead of just "OWNED" or "Your champion has been slain!" you'd get, for example, Annie yelling at you. "Stop dying, you cowards!"

Leavitt Partners And Park City Group Unite To Build A Global Food And Drug Safety Registry
Leavitt Partners, an internationally-known health care and food safety consulting firm, and Park City Group (NYSE Amex: PCYG), a leader in consumer goods supply chain technology, have joined to create a solution targeted toward improving supply chain visibility for food and drug safety. The solution creates visibility from the farm to the fork in the food industry, and from the manufacturer to the pharmacy in the pharmaceuticals industry. The new partnership will help food retailers, foodservice operators, wholesalers and manufacturers protect their brands and be compliant with current and future regulatory requirements that could emerge from the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). It will also provide tracking and tracing of pharmaceuticals through the supply chain from manufacturer to retailer, as numerous state and federal laws require.
The database of trading partner connections can easily, quickly and economically help identify the source of suspect product, as well as track it throughout the supply chain. Since the system works with existing electronic documents, it requires no special labeling, hardware or software; and can be deployed for no more than the cost of an average monthly cell phone bill. The database will reduce tracking times from weeks to minutes, so affected products can quickly be identified and removed from all trade channels, which can ultimately save lives. The partnership expects to commence operation with a select number of retailers, foodservice operators, wholesalers and manufacturers in the next few months.
"The federal and state level food and drug tracking and tracing laws are placing a significant responsibility on retailers, manufacturers and other suppliers to know exactly where their product comes from and where it's going to. Our partnership with Park City Group will deliver a very comprehensive and inexpensive solution for clients that both meets regulatory obligations and generates supply chain productivity opportunities," said Rich McKeown, President of Leavitt Partners. "The Park City Group solution not only exists today, but is proven, scalable and very cost effective."

There may be the potential of an NHL lockout, but there will at least be one professional hockey game played at Xcel Energy Center this fall. The Houston Aeros will play the Rockford IceHogs, the AHL affiliate of the Chicago Blackhawks, on Nov. 18 at the X.
The game is 5 p.m. Wild season ticketholders will receive complimentary tickets. Reserved seating goes on sale for others August 23 at 10 a.m. and costs $20.
This is the fourth time the Aeros have played at the X. The last time in 2011, Mike Yeo's Aeros fell 3-1 to Peoria and Tyler Cuma tore his ACL.
As a reminder, the NHL's collective bargaining agreement expires Sept. 15. If there's no agreement by then, the NHL has already stated that the players will be locked out. The Wild's scheduled to open camp Sept. 21 with the season scheduled to begin Oct. 13 at home vs. Colorado.
That's obviously in peril.
The first casualty of the uncertainty came yesterday when the Detroit Red Wings, very much expectedly if you've been reading me and listening to me all summer, scrapped the Traverse City prospects tournament.
If there's a lockout, last time, teams were permitted to send their entry-level and two-way players to the minors. If the same remains this year, Houston could be stacked with prospects like Mikael Granlund, Charlie Coyle, Johan Larsson, Jason Zucker, Brett Bulmer, Zack Phillips and maybe Jonas Brodin (he'd either be in Houston or return to Sweden). Theoretically, if the rules remain the same, the Wild could also send Marco Scandella and Jared Spurgeon down there because they're on entry-level deals.
I've gotten a lot of questions from readers asking when Wild individual tickets go on sale for exhibition and regular-season games. An announcement as to the Wild's plans is expected to come out next week.
In the past few days, other teams have proceeded with ticket plans and individual tickets like there's no threat of a lockout. So, business as usual -- even though it's not.
I just got off a 40-minute conference call with NHLPA Executive Director Don Fehr. Really, no new information, but he did say he plans to speak on the phone with Commissioner Gary Bettman this weekend to see how they find a way to get some common ground.
He said when it comes to the non-financial discussions, there is a good amount of common ground. The important stuff though, the stuff that'll allow an agreement and avoid a lockout, it's one big no.
Fehr held a regional meeting with players the past two days in Chicago to brief them on negotiations. He remains hopeful that there will be no lockout, but he reiterated if there is, that is the league's decision.
Asked what he would tell the fans if they asked him, "do you think there will be a lockout," he said, "I wish I knew the answer to that," that he has more than 700 players that would like to know the same thing.
Fehr got questions about why there can't just be a 50-50 split in revenues. He said when you take the actual definition of revenues in the NHL, it's the NHLPA's calculation that the players are at about a 50-50 split right now.
He talked about how there's no cap on GM's salaries, coach salaries, ticket prices, franchise sale prices, only player salaries, and that was the owner's wish. He talked about how it's not a true partnership because the players don't have control.
Again, though, no updates beyond earlier this week.
