Teenage Caveman (2001)
Think Troma's 'Toxic Avenger' or Full Moon's 'Puppetmaster' with naked teenagers and you're there.

Waking the Dead (2000)
Waking the Dead opens with a television image. In 1974, young Fielding Pierce (Billy Crudup) is watching the news, when he sees that his girlfriend Sarah (Jennifer Connelly) has been killed in a car bomb explosion (reportedly engineered by 'terrorists,' that all-purpose contemporary cultural monster).
Waking the Dead (2000)
Though some viewers might not compare producer-director Keith Gordon to John Huston as adaptors of literature to film, Gordon makes films which are regularly praised for their 'faithful' transfer of literary texts.

The cost of insuring against default on German government debt tumbled to the lowest level since April this week as investors sought to profit from a dislocation between the nation's bonds and credit-default swaps.
Debt protection contracts on Germany plunged to as low as 72 basis points on July 17 and were at 74.5 basis points as of 11:22 a.m. in London, from 84 a week ago, according to prices compiled by Bloomberg. They were the most-traded swaps globally in the week ending July 13, Depository Trust & Clearing Corp. data show.
Investors seeking a haven from the sovereign debt crisis are snapping up bonds of the safest European governments, in some cases paying to lend to nations such as Germany and Finland. Some investors are choosing to sell default insurance instead of buying securities that yield less than zero, according to Jochen Felsenheimer, a managing director at Assenagon Credit Management in Munich.
"It definitely makes sense to sell protection on Germany," said Felsenheimer. "CDS is paying more and there are some accounts that are trying to sell protection rather than buying bonds. However that's still a rather limited part of the market."
Sovereign Risk
Germany's two-year note yield fell to minus 0.074 percent on July 18 and was minus 0.64 percent today, while Austrian, Swiss and Finnish rates turned negative this week for the first time.
The Markit iTraxx SovX Western Europe Index of credit- default swaps on 15 governments dropped to 259 basis points this week, the lowest level since the series started trading in March, before rising 1.4 basis points to 263 today, Bloomberg prices show. A decline signals an improvement in investors' perceptions of credit quality.
The cost of insuring corporate and financial debt increased, paring weekly declines.
The Markit iTraxx Crossover Index of 50 European companies with mostly high-yield credit ratings rose two basis points to 644, up from yesterday's two-week low. The Markit iTraxx Europe Index of 125 companies with investment-grade ratings climbed one basis point to 162.
The Markit iTraxx Financial Index linked to senior debt of 25 banks and insurers rose one basis point to 272.5 and the subordinated index increased one basis point to 443.
A basis point on a credit-default swap protecting 10 million euros ($12.2 million) of debt for five years is equivalent to 1,000 euros a year. Swaps pay the buyer face value in exchange for the underlying securities or the cash equivalent should a borrower fail to adhere to its debt agreements.

Hi,I am having trouble with file encryption need assistance.
When I copy files from any hard drive or external medium the files encrypt themselves and after i have copied the file to my PC i have to decrypt it and it wastes a lot of time. And when i decrypt it , it takes up a lot of resources in the process causing my other programs to lag heavily. i basically want to know how to switch off all encryption on my PC in a way my system wont get damaged but in a way that it will work for sure.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. |

This must be because the destination folder is set to encrypt files on it's own. Follow these steps:

problem not solved
I understand the settings of encryption on a file however the solution is not so simple the file encrypts regardless of where you copy or paste the file to so I need to switch off the function that causes files to be encrypted whenever it is moved from an external medium to my pc.
could be some kind of setting within windows I am missing. assistance will be appreciated. |

I am not sure that I follow...
There are solutions that forces encryption for removable storage devices, from the PC to the USB flash disk for example. These solutions are more and more prevalent on corporate systems and usually locked down from end users disabling it. The reverse of this, removable storage to PC local drive copy/paste, usually caused by the destination folder being encrypted, as techhead stated, or EFS/Bitlocker forces the file encryption. Copy/pasting files outside of this system, be that to network share and/or USB flash drive, is in plain text and should not be encrypted. Unless Bitlocker to go had been activated for removable storage devices. So, what is the actual direction of the copy/paste you were referring to? |

too cr00zng
How i go about copying is as follows. I copy a file from an external hard drive but the file is not yet encrypted on the hard drive itself i then go ahead and copy the file from the hard drive and paste it on my desktop. The file is then encrypted by my windows automatically. The file letters appear in green as you most likely already know once it is on the pc itself and the properties show that it is encrypted a swell.I have to then decrypt it. I don't have any problems in doing so as my system sees me as a valid person to decrypt it.
So long story short, how do i go about disabling the encryption that causes the files to encrypt automatically. |

An accident shut down a portion of Interstate 95 near the Baltimore-Howard county line.
Two lanes of northbound I-95, just north of Interstate 895, in Halethorpe were shut down Friday afternoon. Traffic in the area was backed up for a significant amount of time.
SkyTeam 11 Capt. Roy Taylor reported that rubberneckers also caused traffic to snarl along southbound I-95 to the Beltway.
The extent of injuries and the cause of the crash were not immediately known.

The Washington Redskins yesterday were one minute and 13 seconds away from escaping with a thrilling, last-minute win over the defending Super Bowl champions. But New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning had other plans, and his 77-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Victor Cruz provided the dagger in the Redskins' 27-23 loss to the Giants in front of 81,352 fans at MetLife Stadium.

It took a quarter for the Washington Redskins to get things going yesterday against the Minnesota Vikings, but once they hit the gas pedal, they never let up. The Redskins defeated the Vikings 38-26 to earn their first home win at FedExField since last September.
There were many key plays throughout the game for the Redskins (3-3), and the team's offense, defense and special teams all played a huge part. But there was one particularly electrifying play that sealed the win for Washington and sent the 78,000-plus in attendance at FedExField into pandemonium.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is essentially a pinched nerve in the wrist. It is the most common nerve problem in the upper extremity. Women are affected more frequently than men. The cause of carpal tunnel syndrome is compression of the median nerve in the wrist. The median nerve is the nerve that supplies sensation to the thumb, index, middle and half of the ring finger.
Certain medical conditions such as diabetes, hypothyroidism and pregnancy predispose patients to developing carpal tunnel syndrome. Although it has been extensively researched, there has never been any solid evidence linking heavy ... Read More

Microsoft recently held an event at Microsoft Research Cambridge, inviting thought leaders and innovators from business and bringing them together with our own 100-strong team of researchers. Filling the labs auditorium and seminar rooms, it was in itself, an experiment in creative cross-pollination.
Founded in 1997, the lab's mission focuses on leading-edge research that advances the state of the art in computer science so that it can develop technology to transfer to the Microsoft business and help lead Microsoft into the future. But it's not a product-development facility; as you'd expect from a lab based in Cambridge, it works closely with academia.
The role of innovation
According to Clay Christensen, the author of The Innovator's Dilemma, large companies like Microsoft run the risk of being out-innovated by new market entrants who are not focused on optimising existing products. Instead, start-ups can focus on breakthrough technology that disrupts whole markets.
The pace of change is accelerating. As Rob Fraser, CTO of Cloud Services remarked, "S&P 500 companies have a half-life of seven years." In other words, half of them won't be in the list by the end of the decade, replaced by more successful companies.
Research and development labs like Microsoft Research Cambridge are the natural response. They turn a big company's resources into breakthrough innovations such as the Kinect motion sensing input device and the advert prediction algorithm used in Bing, both products of the Cambridge lab.
Academic links are very valuable. Consider the central role of Stanford University in Silicon Valley or MIT on the East coast. In fact, MIT as a whole "has generated nearly half as many entrepreneurial spin-offs as the entire UK university sector," according to a 1998 report by McKinsey. Cambridge is establishing itself as a similar hub for innovative companies.
Pure research, serendipity and competitive advantage
The body part recognition software in Kinect evolved out of research in a completely different field and it's a great example of the way that pure academic research can filter into the commercial world. Cross-fertilisation with academia has direct benefits for Microsoft.
According to lab director Andrew Blake, Microsoft Research has influenced virtually every product that Microsoft has shipped and some have gone on to be huge successes. For example, Kinect has gone on to sell 18m units.
Another example of profitable serendipity are the algorithms developed by Microsoft to analyse big data. They were tested on historical chess match results and the by-product of the research was eight lines of magic code that drives Xbox Live's player-matching technology. This tiny code fragment (and the deep thought behind it) is the secret sauce in Xbox Live. It makes the difference between a challenging game against a similarly-skilled opponent or an unsatisfying defeat or walkover.
It may seem counter-intuitive when everyone is trying to cut costs but in a recession, investing in R&D can be the smart move. A McKinsey study of the 1990-91 recession found that companies that the companies which invested in acquisition, R&D and advertising during the tough times emerged ahead of their competitors who cut back.
Four technologies to watch
At the event, researchers gave in-depth presentations about different projects at the lab. They are interesting in their own right but they are also prophets for future changes in IT.
These talks were backed up by hands-on demos. Out of dozens, four in particulate stood out as examples of ways this new technology could impact real products.
These highlights and common threads were only a subset of what we saw in November but they show the breadth and focus of Microsoft's research. They also point to big innovations in IT that will soon affect businesses and consumers.

Pennsylvania Judge Denies Sandusky Request For New Trial
By Eyder Peralta
A Pennsylvania judge on Wednesday denied a motion by former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky for a new trial.
Sandusky was convicted of 45 counts of sexual abuse of minors back in October. He was sentenced to a minimum of 30 years in jail.
Michael Sisak of the The Citizens' Voice in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., reports on Twitter:
"Judge denies all of #Sandusky's post-sentence motions, affirming 30-60-year sentence, setting path to further appeals."
The AP reports that Judge John Cleland ruled that Sandusky's attorney had "enough time to prepare for trial."

In both form and content, then, Genesis 1 reveals that its basic purposes are religious and theological, not scientific or historical.
Divine Hiddenness is the claim that our public evidence is strong enough to make Christian faith reasonable, but not strong enough to make it compelling.
In the early 1700s, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz famously disagreed about whether God periodically "corrected" the orbits of the planets. Why their disagreement matters for today's debates about God and evolution.
Part 3 of the series "Evolution and Original Sin, by Robin Collins"
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
The one thing on which the entire Genesis debate hinges is whether we acknowledge the role played by hermeneutics.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian faith.
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
The former chair of the Harvard University physics department muses on how faith gives meaning to his scientific work.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.

The Federal Reserve said it transferred $76.9 billion in profits to the Treasury Department last year, slightly less than its 2010 transfer but much more than in any other previous year.
The Federal Reserve had a pretty good year:
There was something odd in today's quarterly financial report (as of March 31) by the world's largest and most profitable hedge fund: the US Federal Reserve.
We know its not Paulson, Ackman, or SAC; is it Dalio's Bridgewater? No, the world's most profitable private entity that is in business to generate profits via speculation in financial markets is, drum roll please, the Federal Reserve. Stone & McCarthy (SMRA) estimates the Fed will make around $90bn profits in 2012. Of this around $87.5bn will be remitted to the US Treasury - a new record high (quite helpful when one is trying to avoid a debt ceiling using 'extraordinary measures' though we assume this is already penciled in due to its consistency).
A key player in the financial crisis was insurance giant AIG, which sold a huge volume of credit default swaps supposedly protecting buyers of mortgage-backed securities from losses due to default. But AIG had nowhere near the capital necessary to honor these guarantees when things went bad, and much of AIG's liabilities ended up being picked up by the Fed and the Treasury. On Tuesday the U.S.
This story was funny. The Federal Reserve plans to "Twist" its balance sheet.Translating into English, the Federal Reserve plans to sell some short term Treasury debt and buy longer term Treasury debt. They will still keep the Fed Funds Rate at 0%-0.25%.What's the point? Who benefits? Duh! I'm not even going to bother with spoiler space.
(WASHINGTON) — A private survey shows U.S. businesses added the most jobs in a year in December, powered by a big gain in construction jobs. The figures add to evidence that the economy gained momentum at the end of 2013. Payroll processor ADP said Wednesday that companies added 238,000 jobs in December, up slightly from 229,000 in the previous month. November's figures were revised higher. Construction firms added 48,000 jobs in December, the most since 2006. The ADP numbers cover only private businesses and often diverge from the government's more comprehensive report.
(WASHINGTON) — U.S. employers advertised slightly more jobs in May and hired more workers, further signs of steady improvement in the job market. The Labor Department said Tuesday that job openings rose 28,000 to 3.83 million in May from April. That's close to February's 3.9 million, which was the highest in five years. A measure of overall hiring increased 46,000 to 4.4 million. That's still lower than a year ago. The job market remains competitive, despite stronger hiring this year. There are nearly 3.1 unemployed, on average, for each open job.
Here's the abstract for a paper I recently completed on Off-Balance-Sheet Federal Liabilities:

Derek Tyson @DerekTysonESPN 2m #ESPN300 offensive tackle Ben Knox confirmed with me he has decommitted from the #Gators. Derek Tyson @DerekTysonESPN 1m Not really a surprise considering Florida hasn't been in contact with Knox in over a month. #Gators
Derek Tyson @DerekTysonESPN 1m Not really a surprise considering Florida hasn't been in contact with Knox in over a month. #Gators Any idea why?
This doesn't sound good because we really need offensive line help. I see that he went to USF's camp & was talking about it afterward. Maybe that got under his recruiter's skin.
Not elite sec talent if u ask me. I think he's to raw. He's an oversized te. We need to add some true o lineman that will help give us the next step up. Bye Knox
We signed only three offensive linemen the last couple of years & had to get a defensive lineman to move over. So, I'd think we need the type of player that can come in & contribute quickly. This player probably wasn't that guy, but who will we get to replace him?
There must have been a reason why the coaching staff has not been in touch and maybe we have some other higher rated prospects in the fold.
Is it possible he sees that we don't seem to develop OL talent. Since Pouncey's left, what OL players have developed into dominating players. If it was my son, I don't know that I would be impressed.
According to the Gainesville Sun.........."Knox struggled when he worked out at UF on June 15 and was one of only two commits who didn't speak with Gators coach Will Muschamp at the camp". Obviously, the staff doesn't think he's good enough and they can sign better prospects than Knox.
No. It seems UF stopped recruiting him, not the other way around. He still has UF on his list of schools. In an article the other day, I think it was Koehne who said that after three offensive scheme changes in his four years, he could finally cross-train at other positions because we have the same coordinator for the first time in his UF career. That has hampered o-line development. Additionally, we just haven't had recruits that were NFL talent at the position. Nixon & Wilson were our last 5* recruits.
Starting to get concerned with the OL recruiting as FSU may have a better oline than us...who would have believed that 5 years ago.
Them dropping Knox is a reason to be optimistic. You drop players when you feel you can do better. Right now they have 3 OL commits that they like.
I personally don't like this dropping of players, if that is in fact what happened, we get all upset when a kid breaks his "commitment" to Florida, but it appears our coaches have no problem breaking their "commitment" to a kid. I think this has the potential to be a PR disaster and could be used to negatively recruit against UF. I would prefer that we don't offer a kid a scholarship and accept his "commitment" unless we are prepared to honor that scholarship offer. My two ¢
Recruiting is a 3-year project these days. Interest from both sides is going to ebb and flow. It's not like we kept him in the fold up until NSD, then told him to hit the bricks.
Agree with this. Why would we offer in the first place . Tis does not look good. That is 2 OL prospects. It is not like we are loaded up in the last couple of classes.

Microsoft Security Updates October 2014
Update (2014.10.15) - administrative notes for preparation... Friends on Twitter let me know their update cycle took close to 20 minutes on Windows 7. Yesterday, others on 8.1 told me their update download was around a gig, for some it was ~200 mb. Also, this cycle likely requires everyone a reboot to complete.
This morning was possibly one of the most information rich in the history of Microsoft's patch Tuesdays. Last month, we pointed out the Aurora Panda/DeputyDog actor was losing an IE 0day being patched, and that seemed unusual. This month, several vulnerabilities abused with 0day exploits by known APT actors are being patched and the actors are being publicly noted. So today Microsoft pushes out eight security bulletins MS14-056 through MS14-063, including three rated critical.
The most interesting of today's vulnerabilities are two that are enabled by Windows functionality, but are useful for spearphishing targets with Office-type data file attachments - an Excel file, PowerPoint Show, Word document, and so on. The first of the two remind us of the Duqu attacks. MS14-058 patches yet another kernel level font handling flaw CVE-2014-4148, the same kind of issue seen in the Duqu spearphish exploits. This one is rated critical by Microsoft. No one particular actor has been associated with this attack or exploit just yet.
The Windows OLE vulnerability patched with MS14-060 is surprisingly rated "Important" by Microsoft. The APT known as the "Sandworm team" deployed CVE-2014-4114 in incidents against targets alongside other known exploits. The group was known for deploying new variants of the BlackEnergy bot in cyber-espionage campaigns, hitting geopolitical and military targets. In one incident, the team sent spearphish as a PowerPoint slide deck containing the 0day OLE exploit to Ukrainian government and US academic organizations. When opened, the slides dropped newer variants of BlackEnergy to the victim systems. These newer variants of BlackEnergy maintain functionality dedicated to cyber espionage tasks.The most interesting characteristics of these BlackEnergy trojans are the custom plugins or modules, but that's for a different blog post. Our GReAT researchers Maria Garnaeva and Sergey Lozhkin spoke about interesting BlackEnergy functionality at the May 2014 PHDays conference.
Another group known as Hurricane Panda attempted to exploit CVE-2014-4113 in targeted environments. This escalation of privilege issue can present a real problem in situations where an attacker has gotten in to a network and is attempting to burrow in further. This bug also exists in Windows kernel code, and is patched by the same MS14-058 bulletin mentioned above.
The Internet Explorer update addresses fourteen vulnerabilities, rated critical for IE6 through IE11. They do not affect Server Core installations.

Tic Tac Toe with a twist
Further to this blog post, describing malicious functions of a mobile Trojan camouflaged as the TicTacToe game app, Lacoon Mobile Security company stated that TicTacToe was developed by them as a proof-of-concept.
Kaspersky Lab would like to reiterate, that as a security company, we detect all forms of malicious program, regardless of their origin or purpose. We recieved the samples through malware exchange with other antivirus companies and it was not marked as a proof-of-concept at this time. We saw several potentially malicious functions in this app – and a thorough analysis of TicTacToe revealed that the game code accounted for less than 30% of the executable file's size. The rest is functionality appeared for monitoring user and obtaining personal data. It is for this reason that we began the investigation and reported the incident to the public.
We respect and support other security companies who aspire to the development of mobile technologies, but we also believe that proof-of-concept programs should be marked clearly and shouldn't demonstrate fully-operational functions, to avoid situations where malicious users replicate the techniques.
Attempts by cybercriminals to disguise malware as useful applications are common to the point of being commonplace. However, the developers of Gomal, a new mobile Trojan, not only achieved a new level of camouflage by adding Tic Tac Toe game to their malicious program, but also implemented interesting techniques which are new to this kind of malware.
It all started with a Tic Tac Toe game being sent to us for analysis. At first glance, the app looked quite harmless:
However, the list of permissions requested by the game made us wonder. Why would it need to access the Internet, the user's contacts and the SMS archive or to be able to process calls and record sound? We analyzed the 'game' and it turned out to be a piece of multi-purpose spyware. The malicious app is now detected by Kaspersky Lab products as Trojan-Spy.AndroidOS.Gomal.a.
A thorough analysis of the malicious program showed that the game code accounts for less than 30% of the executable file's size. The rest is functionality for spying on the user and stealing personal data.
Game code is marked in green, malicious functionality – in red
What does this functionality include? First and foremost, the malware has sound recording functions, which are now standard for mobile spyware:
It also has SMS-stealing functionality:
In addition, the Trojan collects information about the device and sends all the data collected to its masters' server. But Trojan-Spy.AndroidOS.Gomal.a has something really curious up its sleeve – a package of interesting libraries distributed with it.
The package includes an exploit used to obtain root privileges on the Android device. The extended privileges give the app access to various services provided by Linux (the operating system on which Android is based), including the ability to read process memory and /maps.
After obtaining root access, the Trojan gets down to work. For example, it steals emails from Good for Enterprise, if the app is installed on the smartphone. The application is positioned as a secure email client for corporate use, so the theft of data from it can mean serious problems for the company where the owner of the device works. In order to attack Good for Enterprise, the Trojan uses the console to get the ID of the relevant process (ps command) and reads virtual file /proc/ /maps. The file contains information about memory blocks allocated to the application.
After getting the list of memory blocks, the malware finds the block [heap] containing the application's string data and creates its dump using one more library from its package. Next, the dump file created is searched for signatures characteristic of emails and the messages found are sent to the cybercriminals' server.
Gomal also steals data from logcat – the logging service built into Android that is used for application debugging. Developers very often have their applications outputting critically important data to Logcat even after the apps have been released. This enables the Trojan to steal even more confidential data from other programs.
As a result, the seemingly harmless game of Tic Tac Toe gives cybercriminals access to an enormous amount of the user's personal data and corporate data belonging to his employer. The techniques used by Gomal were originally implemented in Windows Trojans, but now, as we can see, they have moved on to Android malware. And, most dangerously, the principles upon which this technique is based can be used to steal data from applications other than Good for Enterprise – it is likely that a range of mobile malware designed to attack popular email clients, messengers and other programs will appear in the near future.
To reduce the risk of infection by mobile malware we recommend that users:- Do not activate the "Install applications from third-party sources" option
- Only install applications from official channels (Google Play, Amazon Store, etc.)
- When installing new apps, carefully study which rights they request
- If the requested rights do not correspond with the app's intended functions, do not install the app
- Use protection software
Trojan-Spy.AndroidOS.Gomal.a uses an old version of the exploit, which is effective on Samsung devices running Android 4.0.4 or earlier. This particular version of the malware could not successfully attack a corporate email client on devices with newer firmware.
So far, we have not seen any attempts to infect our users with the Gomal Trojan. However, even though this sample is not currently active in-the-wild, we detect it so we will be able to block any future attacks by mobile malicious programs based on this proof-of-concept malware.

An aside:
Anyway, what's this 'pure water'? A powerful solvent of almost everything it comes in contact with.
That raindrop originally formed on a condensation nucleus - a speck of something that isn't water - before they started to pick up gaseous impurities. Water vapour doesn't just condense on its own when the air is over-saturated, nor does an airborne water drop freeze when the temperature falls below 0°C / 32°F. Apart from anything else, that dehumidifier/aircon condensate contains the invisible sub-micron particles floating round in the air. Distilled water may have impurites carried by the steam from the boiling water. It's all quite clean, but it isn't pure, and neither is driven snow.
This is of no relevance to the purity required for photographic processing, just an observation on the behaviour of water and the idea that rainwater, condensate, single-distilled water etc can be truly 'pure'. Well, the idea interests me, if no-one else.

Google Releases Fresh Code, Tells the Community 'Don't Copy This Code'
'Jarlsberg' has more holes than the cheese it's named after.
Google's Open Source Blog announced new freely available source code for Jarlsberg, a feature-rich microblogging Web app and then asked the community not to download it. What gives?
Jarlsberg is designed to show a developer what do by showing a developer what not to do. The Web app is built from the ground up be vulnerable, showcasing every known security exploit facing a Web app.
The software component of the "Web Application Exploits and Defenses" codelab, was released today and can be downloaded here. Just don't copy it.
You can see the source but it's not open source
The Jarlsberg code is licensed under CC-BY-ND, which is not an OSI-recognized open source license and allows no derivative works. So when they say "don't use our code", they don't just mean be careful because it's bad code, they mean you're not legally allowed to use it. The source is available but it's not "open source".

Gear Review
definitely worth the price
When I first got into snowboarding, I used the Freestyle bindigs. Not knowing any better, I thought they were a good binding, especially for the price. After getting Missions, I can definitely tell the difference and I understand whey they cost more. These bindings seem stronger, they are more comfortable, and the response is much better. I use the bindings (large) with size 14 Burton Motos and I have yet to have a problem. The capstraps stay put, the highbacks are stiff, and the construction seems pretty durable.

I have a lot of indoor plants that I brought outside, and some tropicals and annuals that I bring inside. When do you suggest I do that? My tropicals look great still and my annuals look great too! Thanks for your advice! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi there! I brought my deck plants in already. I've found that if I wait till the nights get really cool (like when they say it's going to freeze tonight) the plants shed leaves all winter and make a mess. I guess the shock does it. You're in a warmer zone than me, so I would say when the nights dip into the 40's, bring them in. HTH |

This site is just pulling ads from sites with the Google search partners option switched on.

text: Hello, I'm new here and curious to know your exercise routines? Exercise is my main problem. I work full time, take online classes full time and have 3 boys who have sports and other school activities so I never have time to go to a gym. I guess I need some effective exercises that I can do at different times during the day. I never have an hour or two to completely devote to exercise so I'm hoping to find small exercises to work into my schedule somehow.

My 13-year struggle with drugs and alcohol nearly destroyed my life, devastating relationships with family and friends and shattering the promise of a professional hockey career. I quit using drugs and alcohol on April 15, 1993, and have been in recovery and a champion for it ever since.
In the process of rebuilding my life, I realized that I needed something more than traditional recovery programs. I chose the most grueling sport imaginable, the Ironman triathlon, which consists of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and 26.2 mile run. I ran my first triathlon in 1999 and have never stopped.
I have completed 20 full-length Ironman triathlons across the world. In 2008, I was the only person in the world to complete the Ultraman Hawaii triathlon, which is a 3-day test of endurance consisting of 6.2 miles of swimming and 90 miles of biking on the first day, 171.2 miles of biking on day 2, and 52.4 miles of running on day 3. Six days later, I completed Ironman Western Australia. In 2009, I completed Ultraman Canada and became 1 of 25 individuals in the world to have completed both Ultraman triathlons.
In 2001, my experience with running these triathlon events and inspiring others on their road to recovery led me to form the nonprofit organization Racing for Recovery. I've also chronicled my experiences in my book, From Addict to Ironman, and two documentaries, ADDICT and Running with Demons.
Racing for Recovery offers professional counseling services and sponsors support group meetings and events across the United States to promote a lifestyle of fitness and sobriety. I regularly speak to groups and individuals to convey one important message – "With recovery, anything is possible."

Anti-Japan protesters surrender to police in China
BEIJING (AFP) - Five anti-Japan demonstrators who turned violent at a protest in Shenzhen surrendered to police, state media said on Monday as China began to question whether protests over disputed islands went too far.
The five men gave themselves up after police launched a social media campaign targeting demonstrators who damaged property in the southern city, the state news agency Xinhua said, with 350 calls received by Sunday night.
Some of the nationwide protests this month over the East China Sea islands known as Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China turned violent, with Japanese property and businesses targeted by furious demonstrators.
The islands are controlled by Tokyo but claimed by Beijing and Taipei, and tensions peaked after the Japanese government bought three of them from their private owners.

MISSOULA — Missoula County Attorney Fred Van Valkenburg received a national award Sunday for his stand against the U.S. Justice Department's two-year attempt to investigate his office, alleging local prosecutors mishandled sexual assault cases.
The award was presented to Van Valkenburg at the National District Attorney Association board meeting in Denver by the board's president, Henry Garza, who selected Van Valkenburg for the honor.
Garza didn't respond to a request for comment. But as of Monday, Beadle County, South Dakota, prosecutor Michael Moore is the association's president.
Moore explained that Van Valkenburg was one of four people to receive the President's Award, but he was the only elected prosecutor to receive the award for his "perseverance and overcoming obstacles." He said Van Valkenburg and the three other awardees received a standing ovation at the conference.
Van Valkenburg's reaction to the USDOJ set a precedent for future relationships between the federal government and locally elected county attorneys, Moore explained.
"I think it showed a lot of courage on his part to take that stance, and the NDAA had written a letter supporting his stance previous to this," he said.
Montana Attorney General Tim Fox, who was at the conference Sunday, agreed with Moore.
The National District Attorney Association sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, asserting the DOJ didn't have authority over the Missoula County Attorney's Office and called for the department to cease its investigation.
"(The NDAA) had supported Fred in his position from the beginning of the standoff … so this was a very important issue nationally for all prosecutors, because never before had the DOJ tried to assert authority in this way," Fox said Monday.
Van Valkenburg, in turn, was grateful for the national recognition.
"I appreciate the recognition by the NDAA," Van Valkenburg wrote in an email to the Missoulian. "One of the most important things about challenging the DOJ's legal authority to investigate our office was to try and make sure other prosecutors were not subjected to the kind of illegal and unfair attacks we were forced to endure."
The DOJ initiated its investigation in 2012, but Van Valkenburg adamantly refused to allow the federal department access to his office. Van Valkenburg repeatedly stated the DOJ didn't have the authority to interfere with a local county attorney's prosecutorial discretion.
The standoff came to a head when Van Valkenburg filed suit against the Justice Department on Feb. 11, asking a federal judge to rule on whether the Justice Department had jurisdiction over his office.
Several days later, the Justice Department fired back, sending an infamous "Valentine's Day letter" to media outlets, outlining allegations against Van Valkenburg's office. The letter included statements allegedly made by Missoula County prosecutors to sexual assault victims and their families, including "boys will be boys" and quoting Bible verses that cast blame on the victim.
Fox intervened this spring and served as a mediator between Van Valkenburg and the Justice Department. In June, all parties, including U.S. Attorney Michael Cotter and the Missoula County commissioners, signed an agreement that mandates the county attorney to make certain internal changes, among them employing a victim-witness coordinator and an outside technical adviser.
But the agreement makes clear that the Montana attorney general – not his federal counterpart – has jurisdiction over the local office and will oversee any changes.
Van Valkenburg agreed to drop the federal lawsuit in accordance with the agreement.
Fox said Monday that his office "will take the lessons we have learned here" and apply them across the state to assist other county attorneys.
"The main goal now is to do everything we can to protect the rights of victims of sexual crimes," Fox said.

We hit the road tomorrow.
Mrs. GB finally convinced me we should buy a second house, and it'll be in the U.S.
For those of you that were unaware, Mrs. GB is a Yank that moved to Canada ten years ago when we got hitched. She's been making noises for years about wanting to have a house down south A) to retire to, and B) to be closer to her family.
Well, with our dollar worth more than yours, and the fact that it's a buyers market, she finally convinced me. We hit the road tomorrow for the long drive from B.C. to New Mexico. We're going to pick out a place and we're going to have two residences for a while. She'll be staying down there, and I'll be flying back to go to work.
Wish us luck, and hopefully we'll still be talking to each other by the time we arrive.

Story updated at 10:05 a.m. to reflect market activity.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Macy's (M - Get Report) was upgraded to "outperform" from "market perform" by Wells Fargo Tuesday.
Macy's gained 2.4% to $59.51 in morning trading.
The bank raised its price target for the retailer to $68 from $56. Analyst Paul Lejeuz said Macy's is posting strong sales in a challenging retail environment.
"In what was likely one of the most challenging holiday seasons, M performed very well, posting solid comps (+2.3% including licensed departments) and flat merchandise margin in what was a remarkably promotional season. In our view, Q4 proves that they won the battle of the mid-tier department stores, demonstrating the company has the brands consumers want, has leverage with those brands, and is nimble with promotions," the analyst wrote. "This, in addition to the company's steady and strong FCF and SG&A flexibility, prompt our more positive view on the stock." Must read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Stocks STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. ------------ Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates MACY'S INC as a Buy with a ratings score of A+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate MACY'S INC (M) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, impressive record of earnings per share growth, increase in net income, notable return on equity and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had generally high debt management risk by most measures that we evaluated." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- Investors have apparently begun to recognize positive factors similar to those we have mentioned in this report, including earnings growth. This has helped drive up the company's shares by a sharp 39.48% over the past year, a rise that has exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, M should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- MACY'S INC has improved earnings per share by 18.0% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, MACY'S INC increased its bottom line by earning $3.90 versus $3.29 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($4.48 versus $3.90).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the Multiline Retail industry average, but is less than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 11.1% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $730.00 million to $811.00 million.
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Multiline Retail industry and the overall market, MACY'S INC's return on equity exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- 40.62% is the gross profit margin for MACY'S INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 8.81% is above that of the industry average.

One year after Scion rolled out a limited-edition xB at the L.A. Auto Show, take note: the brand is rolling out its latest special-edition model -- the 2011 xB Release Series 8.0 -- today at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show.
As is usually the case with Scion's special-edition Release Series models, the 2011 xB 8.0 receives a special paint color, which the company dubs Voodoo Blue. A four-piece body kit designed by Kenstyle adds some additional cosmetic flair, while a power sunroof -- not available on standard xBs -- lets additional light in the cabin.
Inside, Release Series xB 8.0 models receive special floor mats, which sport the same logo and embroidered with blue accents. The blue-on-black theme continues with special fabric door panel inserts with blue trim, and blue accents woven into the seat fabric.
Pricing for the xB 8.0 starts at $19,125 for the manual transmission model and $20,075 with an automatic transmission. A color-matched rear spoiler is available, but will run buyers an extra $320, not including the cost of installation.
Per Release Series tradition, Scion is limiting production of the 8.0 to 2000 examples. We'd act quickly if you truly want this specialty box, but if you'd rather see the xB 8.0 growl like an animal or levitate, click over to Scion's YouTube page.
Pricing includes destination charges.

These Rubber Barber erasers have been designed by Chen Lu Wei. Wei introduces a playful concept into the classroom here as the pieces each feature large chunks of hair, to be decreased and molded at the hands of children with each swipe of the erasers.
Those who take home the Rubber Barber sets can manipulate the shapes as they see fit. As they continue to go down in size, the contours of the faux tresses, glasses and overall shapes of the heads can be played with, leaving it up to kids to decide what the final product may look like. Wei has therefore made homework and in-class work more appealing as the artistic project can develop over time.
