With at least $250 million pumped into that movie, I can't wait to see it.
Any other zombie fan here?
no thanks.
the walking dead for me.
and warm bodies.
You liking that movie is like those gay neo-nazis from that other thread...
Is it anything like this?
Or this one?
Love zombies!! I am really looking forward to this movie. It should be really good.
I am also addicted to the Walking Dead.
Has anybody read the book?
Is there some reason (don't spoil/a 'yes or no' is fine) why these zombies move like marauding ants?
Does anybody else find Brad Pitt sort of miscast in it?
I thought everybody likes zombies. Anyone not?
Why is it that we rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral? It is because we are not the person involved. ~ Mark Twain
Zombies films are stupid and I have yet to see one that makes any sense from a scientific perspective. This ordinarily wouldn't bother me except that way to many people think we're overdue for the zombie apocyplse. I pretty much avoid zombie flicks.
I was excited for this when I first heard about it a couple years ago. When I saw the first trailer for it last winter, my excitement was deflated. It just didn't look interesting on any level. And early reviews are not good. The movie is said to have zero in common with the book, except for zombies.
I didn't care much for the book, for me it never seemed to go anywhere. skipped most of the later parts.
I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it.
From what I've seen in the trailers, it looks to be one more CGI overload movie. Special effects are supposed to enhance a movie, not be it.
The buzz is that this movie is World War Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
not upset pop s
mind world bury da dead a real wars etc so on ans inclusive befor keep make shit so sofas suck da farts a awsums
I get so stressed out watching post apocalyptic movie.
I rather watching movie about people getting rich in the 80s
I think "Resident Evil" was the best zombie or uncontrolable virus movie.
I have zero desire to see it, but I caught a half-second of it and noticed all the ruin with the Philadelphia skyline in the background.
Congratulations, Hollywood! You finally found a city to destroy other than New York.
The book is a collection of stories told by survivors of the zombie apocalypse. It's a documentary type fiction.
To all the haters, here's the thing. When was the last time you guys saw a documentary of anything on the history channel? You bastards really wanted them to dump $400 million into a documentary type movie?
The man behind the script for the film was the creator of Babylon 5. They had 3 big name directors for this film. And yes, they invested almost $400 million into this movie. So, take it for what it's worth and not try to be purists.
The book is interesting for a book. But it would make a lousy and boring movie. Why can't you people see that?
What the film makers did was take the concept behind the book and made it into a movie. If they had stuck to the book format, it would have ended up being a boring history channel tv series documentary.
Jesus Christ...
Oh really? http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/world-war-z/
What reviews are you reading? Or maybe you just don't WANT it to be good?
I agree. I've read the book and it's one of the best books I've read ever. My favorite story was the one with the army dogs. Being a huge animal lover, it hit close to home.
At first I was a little disappointed with the early teaser trailer I saw because it looked like another bad zombie flick on Netflix, and looked nothing like the book. But as you mentioned, the book wouldn't transition well into a movie. The biggest difference of this is "fast" zombies ala 28 days/weeks later.
I guess they saw how disappointed people were with the early trailer that they actually re-shot a lot of the scenes. I read a story that the budget was actually $150M but Brad Pitt or the director (can't remember who) actually convinced the studios to pump out more cash for re-shoots. To everyone's surprise, they agreed and coughed up the cash. I'm glad.
Can't wait to see it.
Sorry, but $400 million and 3 big-name directors do not mean the movie will be good. Crappy movies are going to be crappy no matter who is in it or who directed it. Have you ever seen Howard the Duck? George Lucas has yet to live that one down.
Oh, and you're not likely to make many friends here by calling us 'bastards'.
don't forget Otto...........
First of all, I'm sorry if you guys are offended by the word bastard. We use that word all the time without any malice. I guess I forgot this isn't my circle of friends.
Anyway, I know that $400 million and 3 big-name directors don't equate to a good movie. We don't really know what the movie is like yet. But there's already a lot of "reviews" on the internet, mostly by people who haven't seen it, that say the movie sucks because it doesn't stay true to the book.
Max Brooks in a recent interview even urged people to see the movie as the movie, and not try to see how true the movie stay to the book. It's unfair for the movie.
Again, the book is written in a documentary type format. When was the last time any of us is will to pay $12 to go see a documentary on the big screen? Why on Earth would people think it's a good idea to pump $400 million into making a documentary? I don't get that.
We should follow Max Brooks' advice. We should see this movie and judge it as this movie, not judge it upon how well it stay true to the book. We're still 2 weeks away from the movie premiere, and people are already writing bad reviews about it simply because it didn't stay true to the book. That's bullshit.
^want to play in the sandbox
lets pretend that everyone is dead.
I saw the trailer, seems ok. But damn a 400$ million budget?
I love zombie books and have read quite a few. I love the Mark Tufo series Zombie Fallout, Hissers and I am in the middle of Plague of the Dead. I keep going back and forth between whether or not to read WWZ. The author said the movie is nothing like his book, just mainly the title. I guess they just paid him and told him to step aside. I may eventually break down and read it though. I will probably wait for the movie to come to dvd unless I hear more good things after it comes out.
He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone - Jill Scott - So Gone
DAMNIT...I just saw the trailers and I hate the movies where the zombies can run as fast as Olympians. I have a hard time suspending my disbelief. They have to walk slow in order to engage me. I was soooo looking forward to this movie but not now.... damnit damnit damnit
Oddly movies that are told from multiple points of view are rather interesting to me. The book seemed more like testimony in front of a world body after the war was over than a documentary to me... but I guess it is how you perceived the book.
SOme bastards can't see it that way.... bwahhahahaha
- - - Updated - - -
Slow zombies are inefficient and only good for comedy like Shawn of the Dead....
The book is brilliant, but they made the film PG-13 for the sake of bringing back the budget at the box office. Pity.
It started out as $125 mil. Then it started running into problems and they needed more budget. So, the investors shelled out more money. The 2nd cut-off was suppose to be at about $200 mil. Well, it went over that line. Then they ran into problems like China not being happy with it being the origin of the plague and the 3rd act not living up to what everyone expected. So, they needed to do major reshoots. Before anyone realized it, about $400 mil had been pumped into this movie.
Nobody is saying it, but this is probably the most over-budgeted movie ever. It started out at $125 mil and it ended up pushing toward $400 mil.
Regardless, my boyfriend and I are thrilled to see it in 2 weeks. He hasn't read the book. I've read it like 20 times. I will give this movie a fair chance, unlike some people *ahem*.
I still don't get it. What kind of ego makes a person hate a movie weeks before it came out? Do they have a crystal ball I'm not aware of?
And my question still stands. When was the last time these people sat down and watched a documentary, even if it's first person documentary, on the history channel? Why on earth would they think it's a good idea to make a first person documentary for a big budget film?
I for one am glad they made it pg-13. The zombie genre is adored by fans of all ages. And us zombie fans aren't just interested in the gore and blood. That's extremely shallow.
My elderly mom can't wait to see it. I'll be taking her along with my niece and nephew to see it on Friday morning. Then Friday night I will take my boyfriend to it. Don't ask. It's complicated.
I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I don't hate the movie. It's difficult to hate something I haven't even seen or red. I can, in all honesty, though, say that I 'hate' any movies by Adam Sandler or Will Ferrell simply because I hate Sandler and Ferrell. To me, they cannot act and they are not funny.
However, I can say this about this movie: I've seen the trailers on television and nothing in them make me want to see the movie. As I mentioned in an earlier post, CGI and special effects should enhance the movie. They shouldn't be it.
I don't hate the movie. I simply don't have a desire to see it.
That's just great.
Huh, sounds like the book offers an interesting premise. I may or may not go and see it (I'll wait for reports from people I jibe with). But I wouldn't agree with the idea (acknowledging I haven't read the book, of course!) that some particular style simply won't translate to cinema. I think it boils down to the director's vision and talent; people have made remarkable adaptations of difficult novels before.
I always want to like Bruce LaBruce movies, and usually don't much.

Whether it is zombies, tsunamis or alien invasions, you can always count on a white family surviving it.
I'll accept that you do not want to see that movie. I will dispute, however, that this movie relies solely on special effects.
In fact, according to reports, this movie has very few green screen scenes. Which is why this movie was so damn expensive to make. Almost all of the movie was done with real live actors, real live scenes, and real live set-ups. Then the special effects are added in to compliment the shots.
Why did you think it cost them $400 mil to make this movie? They could have opted for all green screen like most movies these days. Would have been a lot cheaper. But the producers and directors (all 3 of them) insisted on making a biological movie, not a sterile one. This is the reason why this project has had more man-power involved than most other movies before.
You're making an unfair judgement on the movie based on snapshots (the trailer).
But again, I respect your decision to not go see it. I'm just objecting to judging it based on misconceptions and guessworks.
I want to see it now that I've read this thread
I'll probably wait for the DVD like I usually do
I wonder how much they will score for the box office opening weekend. Usually superhero themed movies can earn well as they have a decent fan base. Maybe this one can attract the zombie fans.
Good. I give it 3 thumbs up........
I thought the trailer for World War z was decent but since Brad Pitt was the Lead player I thought I should wait for PPV. Don't read me wrong, I think Brad is a GREAT & capable actor but action Sci-Fi isn't his thing. I saw WWZ last weekend and it was good. Very fast-paced, light on the special effects but the Director and his Team made their point. Brad is a Leading Actor and he delivered on that. He def looks younger than 49 but you can tell the Ol'boy is getting-up-there.
The Motion Picture association gave WWZ a PG-13 rating & it's under the HORROR genre….Hmmmm, I think NOT. No gore, no visible Zombie eating Human flesh. The PG-13 rating is appropriate because we see ZERO blood and the Zombies look more like aging Senior citizens..
Because WWZ debuted at #2 with $67-million the sequel has been green lighted. But do we need a sequel or do Women just wanna see Brad again with his "Hanson MMMbop" haircut? Resident Evil has the Zombie thing on lock down with awesome Kick-ass special effects. WWZ cost $200+ million to make but it simply did not look like it. I seriously would ask the Studio & the Director WHERE did all that money go? WWZ snuck by @ the theatre but if they want part 2 to be successful they gotta step it up. Look at what happened to Taken part 2. CRAPOLA.
^I've been reading that the budget was $190M, up from $125 or so. I think it'll make profit. Even it's own studios predicted it would do $35M, and it almost doubled that.
I've been waiting for this movie for a while, ever since I read the book 2 years ago. I had some elements of the book, but it was completely different.
Out of 10, I give it an 8, 8.5.
Though it is a zombie-movie, it was a great twist to it. A great way of telling the plague. It didn't really need to be gory to get the point across.

"Industry Standard" Paycuts in IT?
Cliff posted more than 12 years ago | from the puttin'-a-hurtin'-on-your-paycheck dept.
1144noGarnishMe! asks: "I was just reading about a Chicago-based company that has told all its employees earning over $60K/year that they will have to accept a 50% percent paycut for the month of May. This cut might be necessary in these times but keep in mind that the bozos in senior management just finished buying up several failing companies and paying some large bonuses to themselves. The memo announcing the cut is here. This cut, coming in such large chunk and in May, seems like a draconian shot to boost the 2d quarter financials. True, the annual paycut of 3.8% is modest but it ignores that fact that many folks won't be able to pay their May bills with only half their salary. I know that many of us have been through rough times these past 18 months and so I ask, what has been the approach at your company?" There are graceful and non-graceful ways for a company to handle a lack of cash flow. In the scramble for survival, especially in an economic downturn, many companies are caught off-guard and have to show their shareholders that they are doing something to get the company back on the road to profitability (which seems to be the issue, here). In many of these cases, the group most affected by such changes are the employees. It would be interesting to note how many of you have gone through this before and what you had to do to survive the shortfall.

Philadelphia guard Allen Iverson has asked to be traded, a request the 76ers have said they will fulfill.
PHILADELPHIA — The Allen Iverson era with the 76ers appears to be over.
About three hours after Iverson issued a statement Friday night saying "a change may be the best thing for everyone," Sixers chairman Ed Snider said that Iverson asked to be traded and that the team would try to accommodate him.
"We're going to trade him," Snider said in a corridor of the Wachovia Center at halftime of the Sixers' game against the Washington Wizards. "I think it's time for him to move on, and for us to move on and find out where everything stands."
Although he indicated that he did not want to tolerate more disruptions from Iverson, Snider said he wanted to remember Iverson's good times with the Sixers, including the trip to the 2001 NBA Finals, in the season Iverson won the NBA's most-valuable-player award.
"He's one of the greatest basketball players of all time," Snider said. "I'm not here to [disrespect] him in any way, shape or form. It's just time for him to go his way and for us to go our way."
Snider spoke after it was disclosed that coach Maurice Cheeks had told Iverson to stay home for the team's next two games, citing the fact that Iverson sat out the fourth quarter of Wednesday night's blowout loss to the Chicago Bulls and missed Thursday's practice.
In a statement released Friday night from Iverson through his agent, Leon Rose, the All-Star guard said he was ready to practice but was not allowed to participate at the team's shoot-around on Friday morning. Cheeks disagreed, saying Iverson could not participate because of his back injury.
Iverson did not flatly demand a trade, but the unhappy tone of his statement was clear.
"As hard as it is to admit, a change may be the best thing for everyone," Iverson said in the statement. "I hate admitting that, because I love the guys on the team and the city. I appreciate that in my 11 years in Philadelphia, the fans have always stood by me, supported me, and gone to bat for me."
However, one NBA source told the Philadelphia Inquirer, "He wants out. He doesn't care where he goes."
The New York Daily News reported the Knicks were expected to make a bid for Iverson, but a source close to the 76ers classified the Knicks as a longshot. Boston, Indiana and Golden State have emerged as candidates to acquire Iverson, who has three years and $60 million remaining on his contract. Denver and Minnesota are other possible suitors.
The Sixers are likely to try to include Chris Webber in a deal with Iverson as a way to reduce their payroll.
In his statement Friday, Iverson said being told that he couldn't be with the team was "disheartening."
"In my entire career, even the doctors haven't been able to tell me not to play," he said. "I've played through injury and illness. I think everyone knows how much I love being out on the court competing and winning. That's why it was so disheartening to be told that I couldn't play, knowing that I was ready. It hurt even more to be told not to come at all."
• Orlando Magic forward Hedo Turkoglu was carried off the court in the first quarter against Detroit after spraining his right ankle.
• The Memphis Grizzlies announced forward Pau Gasol has been cleared for full contact drills and on-court workouts as he recovers from a broken left foot.
• Jay Williams is resuming his comeback in the NBA's Development League. The former Duke star, still trying to make it back from severe injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident three years ago, signed with the Austin Toros and will begin practicing with the team today.
Williams, waived by the New Jersey Nets in October, considered offers to play in Europe.
• Brevin Knight, Charlotte Bobcats starting point guard, will be sidelined until at least the middle of next week with a strained left calf.
• New Jersey Nets owner Bruce Ratner's much-debated Atlantic Yards development project was approved by the Empire State Development Corp., a major step forward in his bid to move the team to Brooklyn.

Mar 5th 2012 7:33PM On the same subject of the article, what are people's thoughts on a mercenary guild? Like, a guild of skilled players that "hire" themselves out to players who need, say, an unbeatable tank or an stoppable DPS? Has there been any precedent for this sort of thing?
Two Bosses Enter: Arcurion vs. Lord Godfrey {WoW}
Mar 5th 2012 5:47PM Of course, people are going to vote for Godfrey AGAIN, despite the fact that he is completely undeserving of his popularity (and now that I've played through both the Worgen starting zone, all of the Silverpine quests and Shadowfang Keep on both level 20 normal and 85 heroic, I can say this with complete certainty), but let's ignore that for a moment and look at the current match-up.
Arcurion's got a hefty advantage here. He can immobilize Godfrey with Chains of Frost, keeping the Gilnean out of melee range and rendering him unable to dodge the ice boulders thrown by Arcurion's minions. This distance is, of course, no issue for Arcurion, who can just spam Hand of Frost all day. And in the event that Godfrey does somehow manage to get his health low, Arcurion can simply start channeling Torrent of Frost and (frost)burn Godfrey down with ease.
Game, set, match. Begone with you, Godfrey.
Is PvP gear good enough for heroics? {WoW}
Mar 5th 2012 5:00PM Transitioning from PvP to heroics is easier or harder depending on what role you're trying to play.
Healers get a bit of a free pass, since healer stats are healer stats, doesn't matter if you're in a dungeon or a BG, and while the lack of haste or spirit might present some complications, a smart healer will still be able to make it work.
DPSers can sort of skirt under the radar; they'll be missing some important secondary stats like hit/expertise, but as long as they're putting out decent damage, they can get away with it.
But tanks? No way is that gonna work. Without sufficient parry or dodge, a PvP-geared tank is just a health sponge, and that makes life stressful for the healer; you might as well be a DPSer as far as your ability to take damage is concerned. Not only that, but the tactics required for tanking mobs is substantially different from trying to tank players.
Anyone interested in making the jump from battlegrounds to heroics needs to consider switching over to a DPS spec first and building up some justice points before trying to tank.
Lichborne: Further reflections on death knights in Pandaria {WoW}
Feb 28th 2012 9:59PM But they are DoTs, and when a DoT is reapplied the damage of the next tick is added to the new application, allowing you to "stack" the DoT. You'll frequently see this with Balance Druids in PvP, who will often cast Moonfire on targets several times in a row to "stack up" the DoT component of the spell.
Granted, I might be getting that wrong, but that's my current understanding of how DoTs work.

Determining Discontinuous Functions
Name: Ryan Z. Status: student Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 6/23/2004
How do you algebraically find out if a function is discontinuous?
Ryan Z.,
Although I am not aware of any one perfect technique, there are some methods that can provide information about whether a function is discontinuous. For a function composed entirely of products and quotients of polynomials, look for undefined points, zeroes in the denominator. A simple example of this is f(x)=1+1/(x-1). There is a zero in a denominator at x=1. This is where the function is discontinuous. For functions involving anything more complex, you must analyze the properties of the individual functions within the whole function and how they combine. For example, we know that the tangent function is discontinuous. Any function with the tangent function in it has a good chance of being discontinuous. Look at the tangent discontinuities to see whether the entire function somehow manages to counter the effects.
Dr. Ken Mellendorf
Physics Instructor
Illinois Central College
This is not so simple a question as it first appears. A discontinuous function is one that has a "break" in the curve, that is easy to "say" but as your question implies how does one "prove" that assertion, and that is not quite so straightforward. In the first place there are different "kinds" of discontinuities. The "simplest" one is a curve that has a "break". For example, Y= 2*X for X less than1 and Y=4*X for X = 1 or X>1. Here the function is defined for all values of X. There is another kind of discontinuity where this is not the case. For example, Y=1 for X < 0 and Y= 0 for X = 0 or X > 0. Here the two pieces are not connected. Another type of similar discontinuity is the same except leave unspecified what happens to Y when X=0. Then there is a missing point in the discontinuity. Another type of discontinuity is one where the value of Y approaches + infinity for some value of X greater than a specified value and - infinity for X less than a certain value. An example is 1/sin(X) for X >0 and X less than 0.
There can even be some pathological discontinuities such as Y= 1 if X is an even integer and Y = -1 if X is an odd integer. and Y= 0 for all other values of X.
Lastly, there are some functions that "look like" they should be discontinuous, but are not. An example is Y(X)= [sin(X)]/X as X approaches 0. That limit is Y(X)=1! Surprise.
Usually, the subject of calculus develops a number of theorems for determining continuity because that is an important concept in that branch of mathematics, but calculus does not address all possible cases of discontinuous mathematical functions.

Does anyone here have a brand of tire chains they would recommend?
The vehicle is a 2004 sedan and I'm willing to pay more in order to get a set that is easy to put on. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Check your owners manual first. Because of systems like Anti Lock brakes, Tire Pressure Monitoring, and Traction Control, the use of chains could cause unwanted results, and may not be advisable. Your best bet today is a multi-cell snow tire, and you should consider four of them to ensure proper handling. BTW few chains that are "easy" to install are worth the expense. If you must run chains, you need to expect to put in some effort to install them correctly and safely. You also must be ready to repair a chain should one break before it damages expensive components in the wheel well. (ABS sensors, wiring harness for one) |
Thanks john. We don't get storms like this very often (Portland, Or area) but I thought I'd buy some just in case of an emergency. It's been years since we used chains on skiing trips but I remember there was a difference in types and ease of putting them on. I should have worded my question differently since I realize install of chains is not easy.........but some can be installed faster than others. All points well taken. I will check the manual and also talk to the dealer before any purchase. |
Many of todays sedans do not have adequate clearance beween the wheels and wheel wells to accept chains. Clearances are less than it was for cars of long ago. The front wheels present more problems. Check for clearance with the front wheels turned from extreme left to right. Since part of the wheel turns out beyond the bodywork, you must also check for clearance between the top of the front wheel and the wheel cut-out when the suspension is compressed. Many years ago, I lived on a mud/gravel road and put chains only on the rear wheels because those were the driving wheels. All cars except speciality cars had rear wheel drive. However, chains on all fours were needed after an ice storm. Nowadays, front wheel drive is the norm, and those wheels would get the first pair of chains. Check your car for this and check what the manufacturer recommends for chains. |

Boma's Apple Vinaigrette can be found on page 136, post 2039. There is a sticky at the top of the Cooking board with the index for this thread. Posts 1 & 2 are by course and posts 7 & 8 are by restaurant. * * * * * * * * * * Scones from the Afternoon Tea at the Garden View Lounge, Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Yield: 24 4 c All-Purpose Flour 3 Tbl Baking Powder ½ c Sugar 3 eggs 2 Tbl Shortening 2 Tbl Margarine 1¼ c Milk 1 tsp Salt 1 c Golden Raisins 1. Mix flour, baking powder and sugar with margarine, shortening and salt. 2. Add eggs. 3. Slowly add milk, blending well until smooth. 4. Fold in raisins 5. Roll out to about 1/2 inch thickness. 6. Cut out with 2" round cutters; bake on lightly greased sheet pan in 425 degree oven for 10-15 minutes. * * * * * * * * * * * * * I have an Onion Tart recipe from Citrico's which is probably close if not the same. Onion Tart Citrico's – Grand Floridian, Chef Gray Byrum Yield: 4 to 6 servings. 2 Tbl olive oil 1 large onion 2 cloves garlic 1 bay leaf Salt and white pepper to taste 1 pckg puff pastry, thawed 2 eggs 2 Tbl milk 2 Tbl heavy cream ¼ c shredded manchego** cheese, plus additional cheese for sprinkling 1. Heat oven to 400 F. 2. Peel and slice the onion. Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions. Chop the garlic cloves and add to the pan along with a bay leaf. Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Let the onions sizzle until golden and caramelized. 3. Cut puff pastry into circles using a 31/2-inch ring molds and carefully stretch dough to fit snugly into greased four-inch tart pans. With the tip of knife or the tines of a fork, prick dough with the tip of a knife; set aside. 4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, heavy cream and shredded Manchego cheese. 5. To assemble, mound the caramelized onions in the prepared tart pans. Top off with some of the egg mixture. Sprinkle with additional Manchego cheese and bake the tarts for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown and set. Serve warm. Step 1: The chef cuts puff pastry into circles to fit into tart pans Step 2: The dough is gently stretched to fit up the sides of the pan. Step 3: Caramelized onions are mounded into the tart pans. Step 4: The egg-and-cheese mixture is poured over the onions. **Manchego (mahn-CHAY-goh) cheese adds a rich, mellow layer to this tart. From Spain, it was originally made only from the milk of Manchego sheep that grazed the famous plains of La Mancha, according to the Food Lover's Companion by Sharon Tyler Herbst. The two that are most commonly exported are curado and viejo. <Source> Orlando Sentinel * * * * * * * * * * I think this is from the tea, although it isn't on your list.

Kenyan Coffee BBQ-Braised Beef Short Rib's
Short Ribs: Below are the bullet point to actually make the recipe - our varies just a but because of the large quantities that we produce, but overall this will yield you a great product Every time you make them it may differ a bit based on the amount you product and the flavor you want. Here are the rough bullet points to produce this and I hope this helps: * Season the ribs by rubbing them well with olive oil, salt and black pepper * Sear them just to brown them in a heavy bottomed pan at high heat (careful - this will be a little messy and the hot grease will pop out of the pan and can burn you - wear long sleeves!!!) * Place the seared ribs into an oven-proof roasting pan that has a tight fitting lid. * Along with the ribs, place your liquid, enough to cover 2/3rds of the meat, (beef broth, red wine, thin BBQ sauce with ground coffee if you like) 1-2 large diced onions, and 8-10 whole garlic cloves) Place the lid on it securely and place it in a 275 degree oven for about 7 hours. It is important not to rush the cooking time because the long, slow heat is the key to these being very flavorful and tender. * When done (the meat will separate easily from the bones with just the touch of a fork), carefully remove them from the liquid so they do not fall apart and transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan and reduce by half. Remove from the heat, with a stick blended (hand burre mixer - you can also use a blender but the liquid id very hot) puree the sauce with the onions and garlic and this will assist in the thickening of the sauce. Continue to reduce if it is to thin or not the consistency that you would like. * Pour the sauce over the ribs either on individual plates, or on a family sized platter and enjoy!

Jiko BBQ Chicken Flatbread
Jiko BBQ Chicken Flatbread
Flat Bread: Here is the dough recipe. The toppings are challenging, because we use part of a sauce that is bought in, and various chicken cuts. Plus there is a recipe for a chipilini onion puree, and apple and jicima slaw. Here is the best attempt at these: BBQ sauce - good quality sweet style bbq sauce (Cattleman's works good) and add 1 teaspoon of super fine ground Kenya coffee (process in a coffee grinder to a fine powder) to 1 cup of the bbq sauce. Cheese blend - an equal part blend of shredded gruyere, provolone, asiago, and fontina Caramelized Chipilini onions - sear about 6 each whole peeled onions in a heavy bottomed sauté pan over med to low heat for about 15-20 minutes per side. Then cover and place into a 250 degree over for 90 minutes. When done, remove the cover and allow to cool. Process in a food processor or blender until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper. Chicken - (use the chermoula recipe for the rub on the chicken) rub and season 6 each skinless chicken thighs and allow them to sit in the cooler overnight. Roast in a 350 over for about 25-30 or until fully cooked at an internal temp of 165 degree. Allow to cool to the touch and pull the meat from the bones and then chill for service. Apple Slaw - 1/2 cup apple Julianne and 1/2 cup jicima Julianne. Toss with 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Combine together thoroughly. To build the flatbread, roll out the dough into 4 oz pieces, the roll to form the actual flatbread. Spread onto the dough 1 tablespoons of the bbq sauce, then spread over that 2 tablespoons of the onion puree. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of cheese blend over the onion mix, then scatter 1/4 cup of the pulled chicken meat. Place or slide this into a brick pizza over at 700 degrees for about 5-7 minutes. When completed, top with the apple slaw and drizzle additional bbq sauce over the top. Lots of steps and pieces! :-)

Season with the Kosher salt and the fresh ground black pepper. 4. Lower the heat and let the soup simmer until the rice is soft. 5. Take the pot off the stovetop and blend the soup in a bar blender until smooth. Add in the baby spinach and puree. 6. Strain the soup through a sieve if or as desired and adjust seasoning, chill and reserve. 7. When ready to serve, we finish off the soup by setting up our soup bowl with a teaspoon of finely sliced spinach, and a half a teaspoon of plain yogurt. We top that with a few drops of hot sauce. We then pour the hot soup over the garnish into the plate and serve it immediately.

I wondered if you were given something different. The Beef short ribs were delicious; I used Ethiopian organic coffee instead of Kenyan.

Tatania, is the recipe for the Creamy Chicken Corn Soup from the Whispering Canyon Cafe, Wilderness Lodge the same as Southwestern Chicken Soup that is listed on the menu? It looks like it would fit the description.
Either way it looks yummy, thanks! |

1 1/2 pounds mine had - a difference of half a cup. For the dough to roll out, I would start with even less water than that. You can always add more water but you can't take it away. Because I had sprinkled corn meal on the bottom of the cookie sheet to keep the dough from sticking, and because the dough was so wet, I couldn't remove it from the cookie sheet once I had rolled it flat in there. This meant it ended up far too thick as compared to the photo. For anyone making this who hasn't had it in person, I definitely recommend studying the photos first so you can see how thin the dough is and how the toppings are added.

The reason for the problem is really simple.
The problem is probably a result of bad math. Most of the "official" recipes are for large batch preparation, so when they send out recipes, they must first reduce the recipe down from a large batch to a small batch. This could result in bad math, or even "guesstimations", by the person doing the conversion for the small scale recipes we are looking for. This could also be a reason for the variations we see between two versions of the same recipe.
It's Always Magical...Thanks Walt!

Should a good flatbread dough have the same consistency as a normal bread dough? How much water would you use for 3 pounds of flour for a flatbread?

It's funny that someone revived my old post about clear liquids, because I am posting with a similar question now.
My daughter, Thing Two, had her wisdom teeth removed this morning. She stuck to pudding, soup, jello, mashed potatoes and cottage cheese today, although her doctor said she could eat anything she wants. I imagine tomorrow she will want more substantial food. There is leftover very soft stuffed cabbage, which she likes, for lunch. For tomorrow night, I think I have a good idea. I have the leftover chicken from the soup (four pounds of wings; not a ton of meat, but some), and it's very soft, because I cook my soup for several hours. So I was thinking of what to make for her with that. Her boyfriend's family is Persian-Jewish, and although his mom is a terrific cook, she has trouble eating a lot of it, because she just can't eat anything even a little spicy. But there is one Persian specialty she makes that Thing Two adores: chicken meatballs called "gundi" or "gondi." I looked in a very good Persian cookbook Thing One's sister-in-law gave Thing Two (wasn't that nice?), but the recipe calls for raw ground chicken. I want to use up the wing meat. Any suggestions for a recipe that uses what I have? Or suggestions how to retrofit one that calls for raw chicken? Thanks so much in advance. You guys rock. |

I can't see why you couldn't chop it fairly small and/or pulsed it once or twice in a food processor, with less cooking to get the result for which you are looking. (((thing two))) get better soon! |

I have acquired three spaghetti squashes this week from a friend and since it really has no unique flavor, but takes on flavors well I'm in need of something other than butter and Parmesan cheese on these bad boys....
You good folks on this forum have any suggestions I could try? Two are around 2# but one is a big one at around 4#. I would like to have something serve as a main course rather than a side. Thank you...

I use spaghetti squash just like regular spaghetti with my favorite spaghetti sauce. I also use it with my butternut squash sauce and get a major dose of veggies. My next recipe is this one from Trader Joe's. Was in the newsletter they send out. Spaghetti Squash Carbonara! How bad can it be with bacon, cheese, garlic, and peas? Check it out. Murphy |

I toss cooked spaghetti squash with butter, brown sugar, and fresh grated ginger, salt & pepper, then put it back in the oven for a few minutes, until all the ingredients meld together. It's DS's favorite way to eat squash. |
I add some chopped green onion, chopped red pepper and a vinaigrette.....serve it cold as a salad sort of thing...like slaw or a pasta s\alad...sort of!! |
I found this recipe on Pinterest from Whole Foods and made it last night - delicious and different. Not my pic.. Spicy Spaghetti Squash with Black Beans Serve these stuffed squash halves immediately or fill with the stuffing and refrigerate them, covered, one day in advance. Simply reheat them before serving. For the filling, heat oil in a large pan and saut� red onion, jalape�o chili and red pepper for 2 minutes. Add beans, corn and chili powder; saut� 1 minute longer. Add cooked squash, cilantro, lime juice and salt, cook 1 minute until heated through. Fill squash halves with filling, mounding mixture in the center. Nutritional Info: • 160 calories (30 from fat) |

Topic. Discuss. In my eyes, he is most definitely a tank, in the same way amumu and alistar are tanks. If Taric is built straight aura/support, he is very tanky. - very high MR/Armor - 2 self-heals - not anymore mana-dependent than amumu - awesome, reliable, long-range stun (if you've been stunned by taric while running away, you know what I am talking about - can basically solo a tower at higher levels. I am just getting frustrated at the people who scoff at me when they choose Taric and I ask them if they are tanking. I am NOT saying he is the best tank, but I think he is just as good as Amumu, Alistar, and Malphite, and defnitely superior to Galio. TL;DR; Taric is most definitely a tank when built correctly, and fits a team nicely that A. Needs a tank B. Needs a support C. Has a jungler.
Senior Member
He cant initiate, and pretty much his only threat is a stun? He is more of a tanky support/aura *****.
He's more of a support/Aura champion. Most of tanks have more than 1 way to save their squishies. (He only has a stun) And his heal isnt that good late game, unless you go AP
He can not convince people to attack him instead of running past and killing the rest of his team. No one dares get close to rammus/shen/amumu/ali the same way cos they would **** them up.
One point I'd like to point out. He's a lot more mana dependant than Amumu is o.O His ult drains his mana fast as hell if you just leave it on. Also most people don't consider him a tank because if you build him aura/support his heals and such will all be weaker with a lack of ap and he just winds up being a tank in the same way people THINK mord is a tank. He stuns one person, the rest of the team (if they're smart) walk around him and pick on your squish.
Taric deals no damage, ergo hes not a tank
Tank mord.. down there with tank garen.
he doesn´t have a way to make the oponent focus on him, and eccept for the stun he can´t stop them from reaching squishy allies.
He's a support, you can tell because: Q: Heal W: Armor aura buff/armor debuff-aoe damage E: Stuns and deals damage R: Aura damage buff and self HoT He simply does not have the abilities for a tank, I've seen taric played as a DPS better than I've seen him played as a tank. He just requires more to get his abilities going than hp/mr/armor

I think you should fix the brush bug that makes it so slow moving lock ons can be dodged by going into brush at the right time. This happens to me all the time as akali. If I cast my Q at a target and they go into brush after i cast it but before it hits them it will often completely disappear. I can run in after them and they wont have the mark on them and my Q will be on cooldown. pretty frustrating burning a chunk of my energy and my main damage spell to have it completely disappear.
I think it should be different rules for different things. Taric's Dazzle should reveal him since it's a point and click spell. He's aggressing directly onto you, so it makes sense. Skillshots shouldn't reveal the champion in the bush, since that's a part of the "mind game" kind of gameplay for some champions like Nidalee/Blitz, and they're easy to dodge by most people's standards. Nunu's ultimate not revealing him in bushes is actually a small part of why Nunu is so fun and hilarious(in my experience at least) so I don't think it would be appropriate to take that aspect away from him, since he can't use it to his advantage in all scenarios anyway. It will take a sneaky Nunu to get this into a lot of teamfights, and if a player is skilled enough or paying enough attention they'll notice they're being slowed and probably realize they're walking in a Nunu ultimate anyway. I think an easy/fair way to fix all that is to make it so that doing damage to an enemy champion reveals you for a brief period. That gives time for champions like Nidalee to cover some ground after firing skillshots.
In my opinion: Skillshots should not reveal the champion, but the projectile should be fully visible. Targeted spells and auto-attacks should reveal the champion. Special abilities like Nunu's ult should be dealt with on a case-to-case basis. Certain things like this underscore the importance of game knowledge. Sure it's frustrating to get blown up by an unknown Nunu-Ult, but after it happens the first time, you should know "Hey, I should be careful and avoid having my whole team walk towards that bush Nunu just went into." There is a particle effect to show you're being slowed, correct? Maybe make that part more obvious. But Nunu himself shouldn't be revealed. You don't watch Ezreal walk into a bush, then act surprised when he hits you with a Mystic Shot. You shouldn't be surprised when Nunu walks into a bush and ults.
I'm of the opinion that AAs, and offensive abilities should reveal the character. However, channels should have the caster remain invisible until it finishes casting. Shield spells such as Shen's Feint or Leona's Eclipse should not reveal on casting. I'm pretty sure Eclipse's explosion particle can be seen from outside the bush when it goes off and should only reveal her if it does damage. On next hit attacks like Nasus Q or Leona Q shouldn't reveal when they are cast, only when the enhanced attack is performed. I'm not sure if it would be better to have the reveal happen at the beginning or end of each abilities cast time. Having it happen at the beginning would give players more time to react, while having the reveal happen after the cast time would give players some advantage for casting in the bush as opposed to outside it. EDIT: After thinking about it some more, I'm thinking that point and click offensive abilities should reveal the caster and skillshots be fully visible but not reveal the caster. Maybe skillshots reveal the caster if the spell hits something but that seems weird as it might cause situations where you miss your skillshot and hit a minion instead of champion which reveals you or miss everything and it doesn't.
Skillshots shouldn't reveal. Everything else should.
Any action inside of brush should reveal the attacker... But more importantly I think you guys should fix several bugs with brush... for example, holes -.- it hasn't happened to me in a while but it sucks when you ward inside a brush and the ward seems to be in another dimension where it's not revealing anything, it just stands there, inside the brush but not revealing anything. There's another kind of bug - hole in brush too where there's a ward inside the brush and it reveals everything BUT a small spot so enemies hiding just in the tip of the brush will not be revealed ._. this has happened to me at least 3 times on the river bush in bot, once was with a pink ward not revealing a pink from the enemy (but he could easily see mine) and other times were just champions standing on the tip of the brush. Also it'd be nice to have a clarification on warding inside walls... sometimes the ward will go through and sometimes it will bounce back ._. aaaand also it'd be nice to know why does pink wards outside brush will not reveal pink wards inside brush even if you step on the brush but the other way around works normally (the ward inside the brush reveals the ward outside of it) thanks :3
skillshots should not reveal a champion auto target attacks should reveal a champion nunu's ult should not reveal until you step in its aoe
Oh No Bananas
Another odd issue with brush is Zac in his original skin is difficult to tell when he is or isn't in the bush. As a jungler this can make for issues.
Vivi R66
Basically anything that is "point-and-click" reveals, but skillshots dont. And channels of on ground spells dont too. It sounds simple to me, but would be nice if skillshots showed the user as a way to give some counterplay. The Nunu channel and others (dunno how many others exist, Galio?), i find them part of the champion kit, use the vision as surprise, so shouldnt be removed

Jeep Liberty
lasersam Posts: 5Last night in a driving rain I put on the rear wiper to clear the view. After wiping I noticed that there was still a few persistent drips. When I got home and checked.... water was on the inside of the glass, dripping over the heater strips. Not a good sign. Anyone else experience this on their 09?
mpoarch Posts: 1I recently purchased a 2006 Jeep Liberty with under 50K miles. It's an automatic 2wd. At 57K, It sometimes doesn't want to come out of park into gear when first starting up. Has anyone had similar problems and come up with any solutions? I know I've heard the horror stories about these trannies shifting themselves, but this one doesn't even want to let the driver shift it. :confuse:
britt_britt Posts: 3We bought our Jeep Liberty on 8/15/2010... Within 6 weeks TWO of the window are broken (will not roll up or down)!... (so far)... ....They have lovely tape all over them at this point.
We originally took to Myrtle Beach Chrysler Jeep (Bobby Gale). (At that point the window was stuck at about 40% down)... We left it there... The said it would be the $200.00 deductible under our warranty...
They called an hour later and said no parts til tomorrow... (this was over a month ago).. When they gave it back to us....we didn't notice until we were almost out of the parking lot, that the window was ALL the way down in the door now... Why??... Because this fool took all of the PARTS out of the door so there was nothing to hold it up.... When we asked him to at least get the glass out of the door ... He said nope... SORRY..
Thanks!! .. You just made is WORSE...
We then took it to Tidelands in Pawleys Island SC and they (as a courtesy) got the glass out of the door/applied tape and told us that they knew the parts ... (1700+ of them for this window) were on back-order and it would be 3 weeks!...
...Since then another window went DOWN, so 2 of them still have TAPE all over them... This is the worst customer service!!!.. Be warned... As if the Jeeps are not bad enough, Myrtle Beach Chrysler Jeep gets the "award for the WORST customer service ever!!!...

mertoo Posts: 1I'm having this problem, too. I've read online 2 different places that there is a recall on the latch for the tailgate, but when I look at the official Jeep recalls, I don't see anything about it. Has anyone got any information on this problem? (I realize this is a really old thread.)
bolivie Posts: 5I haven't heard of any Day Time running light modules for the Liberty. That's something I would be interested in too. If I come across this item, I will post it.
I own a 2007 Liberty. I wasn't looking to purchase another vehicle but my neighbor bought this vehicle and lost his job so I did like it and was able to save his credit,I think...The mileage is only11,000 and I got a real good deal.
I have only one problem and I don't know if this applies to this particular vehicle but my windows go very slow, all of them. I had Jeep replace the motors and regulators on the two front windows while it was still under warranty. They still go just as slow but I did, however, receive a letter from Jeep letting me know that if I ever have another problem with any window they will fix it free of charge for as long as I own the vehicle.
One more thing, I noticed that a lot of people keep their 4 wheel drive engaged all the time. Personally, I have never touched the 4 wheel drive shifter. If I were to go off road in the desert then I would. Any suggestions? This vehicle spends most of the time in the garage but I do use it occasionally.

tcluever Posts: 1Hi all
I have owned a 2010 Jeep Liberty Limited since January 2010. We have had problems with the temperature sensor (I believe). The problems associated with this issue are:
-The auto sense fans (heat/ac) do not work properly, run when shut off, don't run when on high power and high heat; includes the defrost: can't see, safety issue. not cool. Cold winter coming: no heat/control over heat, not cool.
-the auto sense lights do not work-which means, when it's dusk, the lights don't come on, causing other motorists to flash me. Safety. Not cool.
This usually happens without warning. The first time we brought it in for this (late winter, 2011 I believe), the service department attributed the problem (blown/burned out temp sensor) on a build up of ice in the cooling fan-froze up, overheated the sensor, causing problems. However, the problems began again in 2012 (around late February) and as we had little to no snow accumulation, nor were we off-roading and "playing" in the snow, I found it hard to believe it was the same problem. They fixed it again. Now, it's November 2012 and I'm noticing my fan is acting up again. I was unable to successfully defrost my windshield during a drive home tonight in the rain. My thoughts are: if I want the fan to be on high and blowing out 78 degrees in November, even if its 47 degrees out, it should blow out hot air on high, correct? The dealer assures me it is not a recall issue nor do they have any information from the manufacturer or other consumers that this is a problem. I am now frustrated (especially since the warranty is used up) as it's a safety concern. Any guidance on this would be appreciated as I am unable to locate any problems with this particular issue. Thank you. -

dbolo80 Posts: 1Hello, i recently bought my girlfriend a groupon gift of a remote car starter install from Midas for her 2012 Jeep Liberty. She has scheduled the appointment, but the guy said she would also need to buy an alarm bypass module for $120 in order for them to do the install. I could not find any solid info on if this is needed. I suspect its a scam to get more $$$ out of the service. I did see some of these online for $30. I smell scam...
Does anyone know if this is required for the install?
Thanks in advance for the reply.. -

What sort of QA affects do you imagine it having? Though I'm talking in the context of what I proposed - using it for just the target profiles that only tweak USE flags and other such defaults, nothing else. I considered QA affects for that case, at least in my own thoughts. I think QA would be checked anyhow there, as part of all USE flags enabled assumpting testing or static testing of various USE flag combinations of a package (e.g, for statically finding circular dependencies or the like). If you put selinux and toolchains in the mix, that indeed could be problematic to QA. Though one could probably define some profiles somewhere that would get used for QA testing, but not exposed to users. Do you foresee bad QA affects for the for the desktop/developer/gnome/kde/server profiles case too, or just when mixing in selinux/toolchains/etc? > If there is a shift to having users do the combinations themselves > (rather then combining w/in tree), there won't be visibility scans for > it- end result, more broken deps should be able to slide by, more > horked cycles, etc. > > A solution there would be useful- one that preferably doesn't involve > scanning every possible permutation of mixable profiles (you would > *not* like the speed affect that would have on repoman). > ~harring -- Mart Raudsepp Gentoo Developer Mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Weblog: http://blogs.gentoo.org/leio

Phil Davis was an American cartoonist and illustrator, born in St. Louis, Missouri. He studied at the Washington University Art School, while working as a commercial artist for the local telephone company.
In 1928, he started working on the St. Louis Post-Dispatch as an advertising artist, while at the same time contributing illustrations and covers for various magazines. In 1933, he met writer Lee Falk, and together they created 'Mandrake the Magician' for King Features Syndicate.
During the war, Davis was drafted as art director of the Curtiss-Wright Aircraft Company, where he edited and partially illustrated the instrumentation manual for the A-25 bomber. At about the same time, his wife Martha, a talented fashion designer, joined him to work on the drawing of 'Mandrake'. Phil Davis died of a heart attack on 16 December, 1964.
In Belgium, 'Mandrake de Wonderman' was
published in magazine Story (1944-1948?)

SMD Environment Day
During winter vacation, many students went home. Approximately 75 students stayed in school. To entertain the kids and keep them busy, our school seniors made many programmes. Among them one was "Environment Day" held on January 13th and lead by Senior Ugyen Karma. That day, we SMD kids, Seniors and teachers cleaned our school area and the road in front of our school. We all did our best to make the environment look clean and green by sweeping, picking up garbage, and washing the dust from the road. It was fun but tiring too. One of the most interesting things was that we got to stop the vehicles from moving on the road while we were sweeping! Some of the student made beautiful charts on the environment and hung them on the wall. It was fabulous day for SMD.
We would like to give our heartfelt thanks to the seniors for organizing such programme.

The former Gunners hit man scored one and had a hand in three other goals in Red Bull's emphatic win.
The striker has now scored 14 goals in 21 starts this term, adding another 12 assists for the Red Bulls "Thierry was phenomenal. He set up every goal except his own," the Sun quoted Backe, as saying.
"When he shines like this, you could say he's the best player in the league," he added. (ANI)
