(born Nov. 4, 1873, London, Eng.—died Oct. 24, 1958, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire) British philosopher, one of the founders of analytic philosophy. While a fellow at the University of Cambridge (1898–1904), he published two influential papers, "The Nature of Judgment" (1899) and "The Refutation of Idealism" (1903), that did much to break the hold of absolute idealism on British philosophy. Also published during this period was his major ethical work, Principia Ethica (1903), in which he argued that "good" is a simple and unanalyzable quality that is knowable by direct apprehension. His intuitionism was the dominant metaethical position in Britain for the next 30 years, and it exerted considerable influence within the Bloomsbury group of artists and intellectuals. In epistemology, Moore is remembered for his "common sense" philosophy, according to which human beings know to be true many propositions about themselves and the world that are inconsistent with idealist and skeptical doctrines (e.g., "The Earth has existed for many years"). His general position was that, because no argument for idealism or skepticism is as certain as the commonsense view, idealism and skepticism can be rejected out of hand. He was professor of philosophy at Cambridge from 1925 to 1939. From 1921 to 1947 he edited the journal Mind.

Missing Chromosome
Name: Laura Status: Student Grade: 9-12 Location: OR Country: United States Date: February 2006
When you are missing a chromosome what will happen to your learning abilities?
Depending on which chromosome is missing, learning ability may be the least of your worries! Humans don't tolerate changes in chromosome number well. One too many chromosomes cause diseases such as Down syndrome and Edward syndrome. Females can tolerate one less X chromosome; this causes Turner syndrome. It doesn't necessarily affect mental abilities. Usually though, one less crhomosome isn't compatible with life and the embryo is usually miscarried before the mother knows she is pregnant.
Since there are no known examples of a persom missing an autosome (non-sex chromosome), this condition is presumably lethal. The only example of a person missing a chromosome is girls with only one X-chromosome. This condition is known as Turner's Syndrome and results in many abnormalities including mental retardation.

Absolutely Positively
Maxine Beck - 18/04/2009
Well Done Kim. My class love this dance and so do I. It fits a treat
Kumari Tugnait - 11/03/2009
My class, who are mainly easy intermediate level dancers, have been dancing this for about 3 weeks now and it has proven very popular with them. They're not big on turns so I've taught it without the turns in the middle of the 2nd section and it works just as well, and is as enjoyable to dance as with them. If you're looking for something a little easier to teach in-between the harder dances, definitely take a look at this one. I think all levels of intermediate dancer would enjoy it. Well done, Kim, hope it does well.

from EDMONTON
I bought these for my son, because his diet is horrible! He has been on them for about 3 months and I've noticed a BIG improvement in his skin and he is sleeping better also. He says he has become very regular since starting the vitamins. It must be working because I've bought other vitamins for him and these are the only ones he has stayed with. I'm sure its because he can feel the difference. I've stopped going to the supplement isle because you can't get better then this brand!

Highest Quality
By Dorothy
from Victoria
Although I have been taking supplements for many years I never really felt any benefit from them. I have been taking vitafruits/veggies since they were first introduced on TSC which has been many years. After the first week I did begin to feel more energy & less tired. I also noted that I no longer had the urge to snack between meals. I have been on the auto delivery alternative ever since.
By Nancy
from St. Andrews (ON)
I am on the AutoDelivery for the 60-Day Supply. I began taking these supplements in February 2012. After a little over one week, I noticed an increase in energy and a decrease in tiredness. It is excellent, especially in winter when we tend to be lackluster.

Concierge.com's insider take:
Denizens of Cape Town are spoiled with so many beach option. The water, though, can make or break an outing, as the Atlantic-side beaches are freezing, while the water on the Indian Ocean side is often quite warm. However, the Atlantic seaboard beaches are more image-conscious (read: social types wearing the latest fashion bikinis), whereas the Indian Ocean beaches are more welcoming to diverse visitors. Keep in mind that the Indian Ocean side loses the sun as early as 3:30 in the winter, as it drops behind the mountains, while the Atlantic seaboard beaches have incredible sunsets—best seen from Camps Bay beach. Sand is usually clean and white. A few words of caution regarding the water: Because there is an undertow, it's important to swim where a lifeguard can see you. Shark watchers scan the waves on the Muizenberg side of the peninsula (scene of most recent shark attacks) for great white sharks, and you'll do well to watch for their flags—a black flag with a picture of a shark on it means get out of the water immediately.
A more sedate option is a visit to Boulders Beach, in Simonstown. One of Cape Town's best beaches, it has secluded swimming coves but is now overrun with Jackass penguins that nest on the shoreline. They are charming, but also smell a bit strong. The palm-lined beach at Camps Bay is easy to get to and close to bars and restaurants, whereas Clifton's four beaches and Llandudno each take a bit of a walk. Bloubergstrand is the beach with the most famous postcard view of Table Mountain—but it's windy.

If you go down to New Briggate tonight, you will find Wax Bar and Jukepoint. Three guys, Lee, Andy and Marko run this small, unique establishment. Not only do they share an enjoyment of well mixed drinks, between them they also have a combined musical expertise you would be hard pushed to rival.
Two elements set Wax Bar apart from other bars in Leeds. While classic cocktail options are available, the main cocktail menu has been tailor designed by Lee with consideration for fruits that are currently in season. All the fruit purees that go into the drinks are freshly made and garnishes are not pre cut either. There is also no wall of unidentifiable spirits, but a careful, visible selection that clearly has been thought about by the owners. This bar is not about showing off how many bottles can be crammed on a shelf gathering dust!
I sampled two drinks, Jamaican Cobbler (£6.50) and Wax Spring Punch (£6.50). Both drinks were fantastically fruity and had the fresh taste of something you would buy at a smoothie or juice bar, only with the added fun of being rather alcoholic.
The other distinctive aspect to Wax Bar is the focus on the music, which undoubtedly has the same level of importance as the drinks they serve. There is a large and varied selection of vinyl that customers are able to sift through and play themselves on the record players. The 1970s jukebox also has a wonderful list of nostalgic songs to choose from. The idea that the customer is the DJ means the playlist is always brilliantly eclectic.
In keeping with the musical passion, each Thursday of the month is specialised. Currently there is a reggae night, psych night and a soul night with plans to introduce a 1950s doo-wop night in the near future. Lee also intends to develop drinks to accompany these events.
Wax Bar may be shoebox sized with more selective drink options, yet this is what allows it to be distinctive. For an alternative bar experience, choose your drink, pick a record and enjoy!

irish whole meal flour
- 14
- Follow
does anyone know where I can buy (in SF) real irish whole meal flour to make authentic tasting soda bread? I went by the place I last bought it in West Portal but the store was closed.
re: dzime
If all else fails there appears to be a mix.
"If you'd simply like a quick soda bread fix, Sticky Fingers Bakeries offers a just-add-water mix that results in crumbly bread with lots of caraway and buttermilk flavor. Sticky Fingers Irish Soda Bread mix is $6 at www.stickyfingersbakeries.com and at some Cost Plus locations."
re: wolfe
Traditional Irish soda bread only contains wholemeal flour, buttermilk, baking soda and salt. When you start adding other ingredients like caraway, butter and eggs, its not traditional anymore. Real wholemeal flour can be purchased through foodireland.com . I have also purched Irish-Style wholemeal flour from the King Arthur Flour website.
re: dzime
If you can't find it easily in SF, you can order some, or contact King Arthur to ask who carries their product in the Bay Area:
re: adamshoe
Odlums mills various grades of wholemeal flour from Irish-grown wheat. Given that Ireland's climate isn't suitable for growing hard, high-protein wheat, their home-grown stuff is softer with less gluten. If you don't want to deal with trying to find Irish flour or King Arthur, you can substitute whole-wheat and white pastry flours (most brown bread recipes use a 3 - 1 ratio of wholemeal to white flour) and achieve pretty similar results. I know for sure that Bob's Red Mill has whole wheat pastry flour; check health food stores.
Soda bread isn't quite right with our own all-purpose flour. Soda and sour milk do a much better job of raising low-protein flours.0
See about soft Sonora wheat.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article...0 -
Hi Adam, well Irish whole meal flour is a mixture of super coarse to very finely ground wheat flour, as far as I know. There could even be a small amount of ground oats in the mix. It's used to make the not-sweet Irish soda bread that everyone in Ireland is familar with.
Regular whole wheat flour mixed with white flour just dosen't create the same bread.0-

Presbyterian 45
(1-2, 1-2 away)
(3) Duke 84
(1-0, 1-0 home)
7:00 PM ET, November 17, 2012
Cameron Indoor Stadium, Durham, North Carolina
DURHAM, N.C. -- Tricia Liston had quite the season debut for Duke.
The junior guard had 21 points with nine rebounds, five steals and four assists, helping the No. 3 Blue Devils to a 84-45 rout of Presbyterian on Saturday.Haley Peters and Chelsea Gray added 21 and 12 points, respectively, for Duke (1-0). Gray also had six assists and six steals."Tricia has been doing this so much," said Duke coach Joanne P. McCallie, who did not make players available after the game citing the quick turnaround for Sunday's 2 p.m. home game with Iona."I have a lot of confidence in her, and she can find stats all over the place. I thought she was really good, particularly in the second half."Against their zone, we were a little bit immature -- a lot of dribbling and not crisp with our ball movement. When a team sits in a zone for 40 minutes, that's something you have to mature on how to execute, but I thought Tricia was one of the players who really did that."Junior guard Karlee Taylor led Presbyterian (1-2) with a season-high 14 points."They're the third-ranked team in the country for a reason and they're very, very talented," Presbyterian coach Ronny Fisher said."They shoot the basketball real well and they're so big. We've played a lot of teams that have size, and you can play our zone and keep it out of the middle. But when you have size and the ability to shoot the 3 like that, it's very difficult to defend."Duke center Elizabeth Williams, hampered with a stress fracture in her right leg since the Blue Devils' NCAA tournament games in March, sat out the first 10 minutes but finished with eight points and five rebounds in 11 minutes.McCallie said Williams may play against Iona."She's incredible, she's the very best and I hope she doesn't get frustrated," McCallie said.Freshman guard Alexis Jones started for Duke, scoring eight points with six assists.Duke's junior forward Richa Jackson (knee), junior guard Chloe Wells (leg) and redshirt freshman forward Amber Henson (knee) did not play. The Blue Devils dressed 10 players including Jackson and played nine.The Blue Devils outshot the visitors 52.3 percent to 45.7, outrebounded them 35-21 and committed 15 turnovers to Presbyterian's 30.Duke has won 14 straight home openers.The Blue Devils scored the first seven points of the game, the last five of those on a 3-pointer from Gray followed by a short Gray jumper.The score was 13-6 after the Blue Hose's Dria David hit the first of two free throws with 14:15 left in the half. Duke answered with 18 straight points, with seven different players scoring before Presbyterian's Shonda Burnside hit a pair of free throws at 5:19.The Blue Devils' biggest lead was 82-37 with 4:38 remaining in the game on a layup from freshman Sierra Moore.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

In many organizations, few training topics suck the air out of the room faster than diversity training. However, succesful companies are finding that diverse workforces provide new depths of innovation, customer service, and brand recognition… in essence, making them more competitive in the marketplace. So how do we get past the basics of counting people in certain categories and move into an area where the company can really draw on the diversity of experience and background in its workforce?

Fusion Process
Name: Vito Status: student Age: 13 Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 2000-2001
If you were running a fusion power plant, and I know that the energy cannot be contained so we can't use it yet, but if you were to combine two hydrogen atoms to perform fusion, I know you would get helium, but could you then split the helium to turn it back into hydrogen, just so you can perform fusion again?
Yes, in principle. Of course, you'd have to give back all the energy you got from fusion to do this.
Tim Mooney
All the energy you got out of the fusion reaction to make the helium would have to go back into it to break it back into hydrogen. The best you could hope for would be to break even. In real life you would lose energy during each cycle so you would turn less of the helium back into hydrogen each cycle, eventually resulting in having nothing but helium and heat energy.

MARY HARRINGTON Professor RESEARCH Effects of Frequent Jet Lag or Rotating Shift Work on Health
What is the impact of disruption of circadian rhythms on health? Epidemiological studies suggest a link between occupations that involve shift work or frequent jet lag and increased incidence of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other negative health consequences. Patients with metastatic disease show better outcome if their circadian rhythms are more robust. How might disruption of circadian rhythms alter the multitude of pathways that lead to cancer, cardiovascular disease or poor health? We are using behavioral and bioluminescent measures to study disruption of circadian rhythms and the impact on physiology.
Developing an animal model for the study of fatigue
Our research funded by the National Cancer Institute of NIH tested if cytokines act on the circadian clock to cause cancer-related fatigue. This led to our current research attempting to develop an animal model of fatigue based on chronic inflammation.
Studies of circadian clock coupling among hepatocytes
We are studying circadian rhythms in the liver using primary hepatocyte cultures. The goal of this research is to determine if and how cells in the liver show circadian clock coupling. This work is funded by the National Science Foundation.

Water Quality
Forests play an important role in the health of our environment and our economy, including clean and abundant water resources, wildlife habitat, recreational opportunities, forest products, and jobs. As strong advocates for maintaining healthy and sustainable forests and ensuring water quality, NASF supports laws, regulations, and policies that contribute to that goal.
The Clean Water Act (CWA) regulates forestry as a nonpoint source of pollution. Nonpoint sources are diffused sources that cover larger areas, such as rainwater runoff from managed forests and other land uses across a landscape. Ongoing state efforts to protect water quality through best management practice (BMP) programs have served to effectively manage nonpoint source pollution from forestry activities for over three decades.
Under the Clean Water Act, point sources discharging pollutants require National Pollutant Discharge System (NPDES) permits administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) directly or states with delegated EPA authority. Since 1976, as nonpoint sources, forest roads have not required NPDES permits. However, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has now ruled that forest roads and their associated stormwater runoff gathering systems are point sources subject to the NPDES permit programs. The decision means that forest landowners will have to obtain NPDES permits for some or all of their roads.
State Foresters has joined state clean water, wildlife and agriculture associations reaching out to EPA administrator Lisa Jackson urging the agency to defend current regulations that support the established success of the state-based BMP approach to effectively manage nonpoint source pollution from forestry activities. In addition, 29 state attorneys general sent a letter to the Solicitor General as he decides if/how to weigh in with the Supreme Court regarding whether to hear the 9th Circuit decision related to permitting on forest roads.

The Burmese authorities actively helped the Maldives "cover its tracks" while the Singapore branch of the State Trading Organisation (STO) funneled discounted OPEC oil to the junta using fraudulent paperwork and sold it at a premium, the Democratic Voice of Burma (DVB) has reported.
The DVB is describes itself as a non-profit news organisation providing accurate and unbiased news to Burma.
Referring to a draft report into the activities of STO Singapore compiled by forensic accountancy firm Grant Thorton on request of the Maldives government, "STO Singapore appear to have purchased fuel from Shell Eastern, the Singapore Petroleum Company and Petronas, and then sold it to STO, its parent company, or to third parties," DVB said.
"The Maldives is given a special, cheap allocation of oil by OPEC because of the cartel's preferential treatment for 100 percent Sunni Muslim nations, so the tiny island state under [former President] Gayoom would assume a far larger allocation of oil than the residents of the country needed," it added.
Shipments destined for the Maldives would never arrive, and bills of lading recording receipt of cargo were missing, the report stated.
Details of the operation first appeared in an article by India's The Week magazine, which identified the intermediary in the transaction between the two countries as Mocom Trading Pvt Ltd, a joint venture with a Malaysian company called Mocom Corporation Sdn Bhd, that was incorporated in 2004 to sell the oil allocation.
Mocom was one of only four foreign companies permitted to sell petroleum to the junta, alongside Daewoo, Hyundai and Petronas, the report stated – permission granted directly by Burma's Energy Minister Brigadier-General Lun Thi.
The company had four director-shareholders: Kamal Bin Rashid, a Burmese national, two Maldivians: Fathimath Ashan and Sana Mansoor, and a Malaysian man named Raja Abdul Rashid Bin Raja Badiozaman, who was also Chief of Intelligence for the Malaysian armed forces for seven years. Then Managing Director of STO Singapore Ahmed Muneez was also a director.
According to the Grant Thorton report, the contract with Mocom Corporation revealed that a 40 percent commission on profits under the arrangement was paid directly into an account held by Rashid with the United Overseas Bank account in Singapore. The profits whereabouts beyond this point remain unknown.
When the story first broke, former STO chairman Abdulla Yameen, half brother of Gayoom and now leader of the opposition coalition party People's Alliance (PA) party, told Minivan News that such trading was not illegal as STO Singapore was an "entrepreneurial" trade organisation that was licensed to trade in goods as well as supply the needs of the STO: "Even now the STO buys from one country and sells to those in need," he said.
Yameen has acknowledged using the STO's accounts to transfer money from the Maldives to his children in Singapore during his time as Chairman, but claims this was a legitimate means of avoiding foreign exchange fees.
The Week article had cited a source in the Singaporean police as stating that both Yameen and STO Singapore were under investigation. Minivan News contacted Singaporean police seeking to confirm the report, but was told by a police spokesperson that "It is inappropriate to comment on police investigations, if any."
Obfuscation and heroin links
The DVB reported on several Burmese companies named in the Grant Thorton report as linked to Mocom.
"Among the companies who did business with the Maldivians was Kanbawza Bank, owned by Aung Ko Win, who is close to Burmese vice-general Maung Aye," DVB reported.
Kanbawza Bank was "no stranger to controversy", it noted.
"The bank was started in Shan state by the then-unknown and apparently 'asset-less' teacher, Aung Ko Win, who happened to meet and befriend Maung Aye. From mysterious profits made in the Shan hills – once the world's largest source of opium – the bank has grown to become one of the biggest and most important financial institutions in Burma."
Other companies which were doing business with the Maldives included Golden Aaron and S H NG Trading Pte Ltd, recorded active trading in 2002. During this period, according to the invoices obtained by Grant Thorton, STO revenue increased dramatically to $US78.8 million.
Both these Burmese companies are facing international sanctions, noted DVB, and are owned by Steven Law and his Singaporean wife, Cecilia NG. Law's father, Lo Hsing Han, is described by the US government's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) as "the godfather of heroin".
Most of the Maldives' heroin since the 1990s is of the 'brown sugar' variety of Afghan or Pakistani origin. However, according to the UN Office of Drugs and Crime Representative for East Asia and the Pacific, Gary Lewis – cited in the DVB report – a wave of 'china white' heroin appeared on the streets of Male' in 2003.
The vast majority of this variety, many times stronger than brown sugar, is produced in Burma.
The DVB report concluded that details such as those appearing in the Grant Thorton report currently "ask more questions than they answer."
But the outline of STO Singapore's operations thus far suggested that the "shared corruptions" between Burma and the Maldives were "worth hundreds of millions, [from] which [it] will take generations to fully recover."

government will not fall. But some people might. The mayor who heads the presidential inquiry division should leak to the media the documents unearthed. Or are they waiting till 2013 to unleash the corruption of the former regime. We should sack reeko moosa also. President should consult with genuine mdp leaders and remove reeko n maria who happens to operate an airline.

Haleem on Tue, 8th Mar 2011 12:45 AM
Yaameen has profited from these deals. STO appointed two directors and paid them without any receipts. Former MD who was once US ambassador is reportedly having over 19m dollars in Bank of America. According to Muniz this was transfered from Singapore as Maniku's commission. Anni what the hell are you doing when you getting all these information. Bring the bastards to the courts.

We, the beloved people of the Maldives have the same request as Mr Haleem…
Anni, for God's sake, please try your best to bring Yameen and all those involved in cases like the STO oil crisis to Justice..
We cannot afford watching such news, listening such news any more…please act without any delay, you are a president we elected to ensure Justice for us as shown on the MDP logo or flag

What a coincidence even today most of Yameen's personal body guards happens to be well known drug dealers.

So, to cut a long story short, can you get evidence that Yameen is also a drug dealer as well as an illegal oil dealer?
A. Khaleel on Tue, 8th Mar 2011 9:29 AM
All these insinuations and innuendoes appearing in 'minivan news', which is owned by the family of president nasheed. is this the future of journalism in maldives?
and more to the point, if the allegations are even partly true, why has the government so reticent in taking any action?
all this stuff you are reporting feels so much like mud-slinging..can minivan news ever regain the credibility it once had?

I've been searching for informations on this Mocom company.
Looks like the DO website spoke of Mocom & STO corruptions, and a possible drugs link way back in 2005 here –
And there's a PDF file here – STO Singapore draft audit report from Grant Thornton UK –
Let's hope and pray that something will come of this, and that money will be recovered for the country.
Ilyas Ahmed on Tue, 8th Mar 2011 11:30 AM
@ A.Khaleel,
"All these insinuations and innuendos"???
BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID – This is my message to Yameen, Maumoon, Muneez, Manik and the rest of the Mafia gang.
The Government and the International experts are proceeding rapidly with the investigation and when the right moment comes the Masterminds will be arrested. 100% assured.
So, please Mr. A.Khaleel, continue to shiver. You have no idea when the whole mountain will come crashing down on your friends' heads (or are you one of the gang?)
Maumoon & Yameen will end up behind bars soon enough.

This Yamin guy is a corrupt guy to the core. He should be taken out from the political landscape. He is evil and there are couple of guys who says that this Yamin guy had directly asked to go and collect "unknown parcels" from UL flights to Male' and offering the unsuspecting victims to share in the profits. Apparently, these instructions in mid night while in cartune shujau's office. Wonder if these parcels originated from Burma???

with all these stories Maniku still the pension fund head. why Maniku and Muneez not suspended only the poor ladies suspended. Why cant the commision gives us an update of the investigation. so earger to hear it.

Its an open secret that politicians (around the world) get kickbacks of 10 to 20 percent in country's business deals. But having links with narcotic smugglers is crime, making them criminal.
Rationale on Tue, 8th Mar 2011 5:55 PM
Yameen as an economist must have seen the no. of addicts in Maldives and worked out their consumption and thus the money doled out from our economy. Hence a system to retian the money within the country must have paved thru the oil-heroine deal ….
All lies on Wed, 9th Mar 2011 2:46 PM
Yameen is not an economist on paper as well as in actual practice.
On paper he did a course on business administration. In practice, he reigned as the longest serving trade/economy minister of Maldives. If he is an economist, Maldives will now have laws regulating the business sector and few big businesses (including companies with his personal shareholding) would not be able to exploit the economy.
Yameen should step aside, not just due to his corruption but due to poor record in office.
back on Fri, 11th Mar 2011 10:50 AM
pls get this yaameen …its a a cure for gangsters, drug addicts and other illegal trades….plssssssss

Gordon & Smith
Larry Gordon and Floyd Smith forged a close friendship in the mid 1950's while surfing together. This led to the creation of a surfboard company which became a brand with worldwide recognition.
In the late 50's most surfboards were shaped from balsa wood. The boards were heavy, hard to maneuver, and easily became waterlogged. Polyurethane foam was a new and ideal material soon to become cutting edge. Larry, a chemistry
student, was able to source the foam chemicals with help from Gordon Plastics, his father's family business. With no surfboards available within 50 miles, Larry and Floyd built a mold and began blowing their own foam and building surfboards. By the winter of 1959, the demand for their foam surfboards forced a move from Floyd's Pacific Beach garage into their first legitimate surf shop. Gordon and Smith was born and would become one of a small group of individuals to pioneer the Surf Industry.
The late 60's early 70's experienced the beginnings of the short board revolution. Always staying current but never sacrificing integrity, Gordon and Smith was able to successfully lead this progression of change to become, at that time, the world's largest surfboard manufacturer . Few of the other established manufacturers survived this transition with the extinction of traditional longboards. During this time Gordon and Smith also become one of the largest, most successful skateboard companies and one of the first to sponsor professional teamriders. Skateboarding exploded as the company sold 500 Fibreflex skateboards per day with a 6 month backlog and skaters became overnight superstars.

Daft Punk'd
By Matt Grosinger on September 20, 2010
It was only a matter of time before Daft Punk scored the sequel to a 1982 sci-fi flick about computer hacking, video games, and futuristic robot suits. So the stars have aligned and Daft Punk is working on the Tron Legacy soundtrack, their first extended effort on new material since 2005's Human After All.
In the past month, there has been a lot of blog noise and about six or so leaked tracks that apparently came from the French duo's new project. Although Pitchfork and Spin have paid close attention to the tracks, I'm pretty certain that no one knows exactly which Daft Punk is the real Daft Punk (it could be anyone under those helmets). As a side note: I hope this Daft Punk-Tron alliance will do for Robot Helmets what Nelly did for Grillz.
In addition to the six leaked tracks, there is an official stream of meager bytes of Daft Punk's score on the Tron website. While the leaked songs are reminiscent of Homework-era stylings –scathing synths and danceable bit crushing that make you want to go clubbing in space –the official samples are much more ominously instrumental and thus stylistically atypical. But in either case, the music stands on its own as nothing short of epic. Both Becca and I agreed that no matter what they release, "It's fu*king Daft Punk!"
There has also been some ambiguity about whether or not the electronic duo will have a cameo in the movie. They just appeared in a Star Wars reenactment for an Adidas commercial this June, so maybe they are jarring their way into the world of sci fi film. But even if they don't make an appearance in the movie, I have high hopes that they will ask Jeff Bridges to don his 1982 Tron costume and tour with them after the movie's release.
Although vagueness and uncertainty are words consistently used in reference to the release of the soundtrack and the authenticity of the leaks, I am 100% sure of one thing: Daft Punk can do no wrong. So rumors and buzz aside, Daft Punk was born (only a couple of years before the original Tron movie) to score this movie.
Um, pretty sure there's no question that the 6 tracks are real. They were from the official site. Or do you think Disney put up fakes by accident?
I'd heard it's a lock that they're in the movie playing DJs in a club scene in the Tron world. Not sure if these are the actual costumes or not: http://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2718302 -
^What Brian said is what I heard a while ago.
Someone told me they were "MP3 files" or something in the Tron world. Or it could have all been a dream…As for the track, I love it. Looking forward to more new Daft Punk.
They do make a cameo in the movie. Here are their outfits.
http://images.freshnessmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/daft-punk-tron-medicom-toy-2.jpg -
Never mind. I just saw Brian's post.
Update: Album will be released on November 22nd. Thanks for reading!
This was almost as awful as I was fearing. While this may not be quite as lazy and lame as most everything else they've done, as usual it manages to be stiff without getting any kind of locked groove going at all. This is probably going to make the movie unwatchable. I'd have preferred a band with actual musical ideas like Squarepusher, Orbital, FSOL, To Rococo Rot, Überzone or even The Crystal Method (overused though they may be on movie soundtracks).

Prison Abuse – When the Media Isn't Watching
Posted By Charmaine Fuller Cooper On May 21, 2009 @ 5:22 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
Reports of inmate abuse are flying fast and furious these days.
In North Carolina, the sad saga of Timothy Helms has been unfolding for weeks in The News & Observer. It appears guards severely beat Helms, leaving him partially paralyzed. Last week we learned that guards doused the recuperating and wheelchair-bound Helms with pepper spray as he rattled a hospital room door at Central Prison.
In January, the News &Observer reported the allegations of an Anson County inmate that he was drenched with pepper spray and that guards wouldn't allow him to wash off the burning chemicals or get prompt medical attention. It's enough to make one wonder what's going on inside the prison walls when the media isn't watching.
Even more troubling is that the state is moving in a direction that could lead to more reports of inmate abuse. Legislators want to close several prisons and double-cell inmates to save money. At the same time, prison personnel are increasingly frustrated with pay cuts and longer hours. The elimination of popular rehabilitation programs won't help matters.
A new coalition is organizing to help monitor prison conditions and advocate for the rights of inmates. NC CURE, which already is looking into a plethora of letters from prisoners, is partnering with the Carolina Justice Policy Center to investigate those allegations even when the media isn't watching.

Peace - what is it good for?
Every expansion we make tends to be a mix of new cool things that could be added to the game and improvements to already existing features. This week I'll tell you about one of the latter.
War and Peace is an integral part of the Europa Universalis gameplay. You will either be at war or preparing to fight a war. How war is declared and ended has gotten a couple of upgrades over the last few expansions, most notably the new casus belli's that give the player specific aims with the war and that limit what is considered acceptable to demand in peace. Together with the war goals came a new interface for declaring war that made very clear what your goals were and the cost of declaring war. However when peace came the interface have been more or less the same since Eu3 1.0 so the time had come to take a look at that.
The peace view of old had a couple of problems, mostly to do with geography. If you are France and go to war with England at the start of the game, odds are you know exactly what you want and exactly where the province of Gascogne is. However, if you are a global French empire and go to war with the world's other global superpower and try to match your demands to the results on the ground, well you can laugh at me but I can't tell you at a moment's notice where Wallis is on the map or exactly how many provinces I would lose if I offer to release Provence. To alleviate this problem a bit we had a smaller version of the map in the old peace view but it was never as useful as we could have hoped and when empires went global it fell apart. So, what do do?
Well, we thought about it bit and realized that using a small map was pretty silly when we have a big one. So, our team went to work and completely redid the peace interface so that it was small enough not to hide the game map. After that we recolored the game map when the peace interface was open, green for the side set to gain from the deal and red for the other. When you select, for example provinces that you wish to demand, these will be colored differently so that you can see exactly what you are getting. Naturally, you can zoom and scroll the map just as if you didn't have the peace interface open, giving you the great overview of the situation that you need. I also mentioned earlier my tendency not to remember exactly which provinces would go to Provence if I released them. Well, as you can see from the screenshot, that will no longer be a handicap for me
So, now we're back to the quest of making Europa Universalis 3 an even better game than it already was. Stay tuned for next weeks dev diary.

Audience Reviews
When I seen 'Dawson' from Dawson's Creek & Ashton Kutcher in a western I thought there was no way that this would be good. Not that I don't enjoy both of those guys and think they are good actors but it was hard for me to believe they could pull roles in a western movie and be convincing - I'll say they proved me wrong. The greatest reasons for this being a great movie is the fact that while it still has Hollywood's glamour and gun slinging style that the west is always presented in it was 'Dawson' and Kutcher that gave the film a breath of 'real life' beyond the typical Hollywood edge. With both of best worlds, the guys didn't destroy the movie of western vibe, but they created it and more. I was convinced and truly felt like this was a realistic setting and that's something that I haven't really felt in a western since movies like 'Lonesome Dove' and 'Comanche Moon'. The movie thanks to Kutcher had some pretty funny parts adding a untraditional humor this genre of movie. Along with some laughter, insane action, sadness, and happiness the movie does a great job at hitting viewers emotions on every level. In my opinion, it was under rated, and is a good 5! (That could because I am biased for modern western movies) but I truly enjoyed it. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good western, especially, if you have any southern or Texas heritage as it will boost it all that much more for you.

We recently caught up with Vater Drumstick Artist Matt Johnson in Boston while he was on tour with St. Vincent. While Matt was here, we asked him to discuss his work on Jeff Buckley's "Grace" album as 2014 marks the 20th Anniversary of it's release. "Grace" was Jeff Buckley's only completed studio album to be released as Jeff died in a drowning accident in 1997.
In this video, Matt talks about meeting Jeff just a very short time before they tracked the album, and goes somewhat track-by-track to talk about his drum parts, the recording process for the album, how the drum set configuration varied, and how some aspects of his playing on that album were a result of, what he calls, "fear and stark terror" during the recording process.
Matt Johnson reflects on "Grace":
Vater is very excited to welcome iconic drummer Tim Alexander to the Artist Family. Tim was the drummer in Primus from 1989-1996 and 2003-2009. Fellow Vater Artist Jay Lane came back into Primus in 2009 until Tim's return to the band in 2013.
Tim has also released 2 albums with Laundry and was also the first drummer in A Perfect Circle and can be heard on "The Hollow" from the Mer de Noms album. Additionally, Tim has also performed in the Blue Man Group as well as Maynard James Keenan's project, Puscifer.
The first official Primus show with Tim Alexander back on drums was New Year's Eve 2013 at The Fox Theater in Oakland. The band performed their first set with the original "Suck On This" backdrop hung on the stage. For their second set, Primus performed the soundtrack from the 1971 film "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory" in its entirety.
Tim Alexander is currently using a Vater Tim Alexander prototype stick model made in maple along with the Vater Vintage Bomber Beater, and various mallets and specialty sticks.
Vater Artists on Tim Alexander:
"Pork Soda was my first introduction to Tim Alexander's playing, and up until that point, I was unaware of how creative one could be as a drummer. I spent many nights cobbling together the craziest f-ing kits as I tried to harness even an ounce of what that guy was doing." Miles McPherson.
"Listening to Tim Alexander is like perpetually being musically head faked, his playing is so creative and precise you never see it coming. It's what makes him a modern day legend." Mike Byrne [Smashing Pumpkins]
"Tim Alexander was one of my earliest and biggest influences. His playing has influenced a whole generation and he's extremely humble about that. We got to play in Puscifer together and it was awesome to not only work with him but to become friends. Glad he's on board with Vater!" –Gil Sharone [Stolen Babies]
"I had the pleasure of watching Tim play from the side of the stage a few times and I was always impressed by his incredible chops..but he played for the songs too. Effortlessly marrying chops and musicality. Welcome to the Vater family!" Joe Sirois [Mighty Mighty Bosstones/Roll The Tanks]
"Every now and then a drummer comes along that, with their musicality and innovative playing, captures every musician's attention.....he's one of those drummers!" James Harrison [Drum Line Instructor: Boise State University]
"A huge inspiration while I was growing up learning how to play drums. I was always analyzing his playing and his drum kit. He makes his grooves and fills extremely tasteful and makes such difficult parts look easy. He is one of the best out there and great addition to the Vater family!" Nate Walker [Lit]
"A master of groove and truly one of the most unique drummers out there, Tim Alexander proves time and time again that anything is possible on a drum kit…all he needs is a pair of VATER sticks!" –Cyrus Bolooki [New Found Glory]
"My teenage ticket to WTF is this!?…held together by one hell of a drummer that covered the full spectrum of sonic possibilities in a rock band. And the album covers had clay art which was cool! I had them all...cassette tapes at that time, that is." -Tony Escapa [Ricky Martin/Independent]

So we've all been there! The day where you find out your infamous dress code or the day when you realize the profession of your choice is not exactly known for high, middle, or any kind fashion! And instead you're stuck dealing with a man CEO, a woman that forgot fashion along the way, or some sort of safety hazard that has actually never nor will happen. So because of this you struggle most mornings to come up with an outfit and blurt out the words every significant other hates to hear… "I have nothing to wear"!
Note: The right corner of every photo collage is not meant be taken seriously.
To Teach or Be Taught
In this case, being taught is quite important! Becoming a teacher doesn't grant you the right to wear an A+ Vest, apple denim button-up, or small children on your cardigan. In fact, these should probably make an appearance in the handbook for what not to wear! I do know it can be difficult for all teachers or professors to find age appropriate and semi-conservative wear, but part of being a teacher is about stepping outside of the box. So I'm here to help you!
Plant Life
No, I'm not talking about the green/outdoorsy jobs one dreams about. I'm talking about the not so glamorous, working around giant machines, extreme safety hazards, and steel-toed boots kinda work. While at times it's nice to not have to worry at all about what to wear to work because you know no one else really cares. It too can get old! After being restricted for sometime by "plant life", showing that you do look descent outside of a bump cap becomes important and can make a huge difference in personal self-esteem. Rather than giving up on your fashion sense or losing a finger (okay so I might of crossed the line) let me be of some compromising assistance.
Office Wear
Some are strict, some are not; however, most are pretty standard. The whole spiel about looking professional in a professional environment to your collegues and or clients creates the first image of how they feel about the business…blah…blah…blah. As much fun as this sounds, I feel many of us would choose to pass! Though jobs are hard to come by now a days, I do suggest following the rules with a twist!
Health Profession
Okay, first let it be known that I am in no way, shape, or form promoting the use of Looney Tune scrubs or black Reeboks. Their are standards even if scrubs are involved! I'm pretty sure most have experienced the fashion of the "health world". You go in for a little arm surgery and end up in a buttless night gown with shoe booties (so maybe I'm drawing from my own experience)! There isn't much that can top that! So we all get that the health world isn't keen on fashion, only safety. What's up with that?!(sarcasm)
Tune in Soon for Dress for Your Profession (Part 2): What to Wear to Work!

"Great duplicate file finder"
Finds duplicates quickly
Easy to useCons
When there are many duplicates, the process of deleting is slow if you don't want random selection of one from each group. A better option would be to be able to select all duplicates in directory and all sub directories of that directory. There is an option to select all duplicates in a directory, but it ignores subdirectories. An option to turn off notification that you are about to delete files would be nice.
One of best duplicate file finders. Minor improvements in user interaction would be nice.

Grey Gardens opened on Broadway this past season, after transferring from Off-Broadway, but was unfortunately not able to sell enough tickets to keep going. Beauty and the Beast, on the other hand, has had a smash run of 13 years – it was the first of the Disney-on-Broadway musicals, and will be closing to make way for Disney's latest, The Little Mermaid.

Demacia's detractors will be happy because now the nationstate will literally be run by draconians, and Demacia's supporters will be happy because now the nationstate is run by a dragon, and how awesome is that? Very, that's how.
Senior Member
BRILLIANCE! Everyone wins!
Web Content Assistant
Hmmm, I don't know. Demacia is still very much a monarchy, so they'd probably want someone part of the royalty to be their future queen. Not only is Shyvana a commoner and a foreigner, she's not even fully human. So I feel Demacians would have a hard time accepting her as their queen. The more likely choices for Jarvan's queen would either be Lux, or possibly Vayne.
Uh... I was always under the impression that Shyvana was his *daughter*, and that he met her mother when he was wandering in the wastelands.
Tristan Trades
Historically, marriages between royalty are politically motivated, so it wasn't particularly weird for kings to have concubines, or if you prefer courtesans. Sometimes these were well-paid and fairly respectable positions. But you don't put these people in any position of real political power.
Anyone BUT Lux, because she's looking for love outside of Demacia. Dur.

text: Late-Season Feeding Patterns Now, let's assume the deer have already gone through the physiological transition and their systems are tuned to live with the extreme cold they are facing. Now, you need to watch for a warm snap, while looking to hunt the same areas. So the real key to late-season success is the change in weather, not the weather itself. Late-season deer tend to move much less during the morning than during the afternoon. One researcher found that most deer finish feeding about two hours before sunrise. They then pick their way slowly toward their bedding areas. This makes morning hunting a risky proposition when the rut is over. Another challenge comes in the form of compressed home ranges that occur during these early-winter cold snaps. The deer bed very close to their food. Not only does their compressed range make it more difficult to get between feeding and bedding areas without being detected, it can actually make it very difficult to even approach the feeding area at all without being detected. Late-Season Hunting Strategies You can't always wait for them to become visible before you start hunting them. You need to be hunting when they become visible. Find the food, as that is where they will be when they ratchet up their daylight activity. The best possible food sources in the most isolated areas will produce the best action. Set your trap ahead of time and then be there when the weather changes. If you do happen to see a buck that is out of range, pay close attention to exactly how he enters the feeding area. What trail did he use? What was the wind direction? What time was it? You also want to know what all the other deer using the feeding area are doing so you can factor them into your strategy. All of these observations are important when deciding if you should move your ambush closer. Bucks won't use the same exact trail to enter their feeding area each day (in fact, they don't always come out before dark each day). So don't read too much into a single sighting. If you feel good about your current setup, you may want to stick it out; however, if you see the buck do the same thing twice, it is time to move. Late-season hunting is a waiting game; it may take three or four outings before you see the buck again. All the deer using the area have to remain relaxed for that entire period if this is going to work. Make sure that you can get out of the area after shooting time expires without alarming a single deer. If you can't, you've committed yourself too far into the feeding area. If the weather is warm and all you see are does coming out, you have three options: move to another area and keep watching, stay put and wait until it gets colder in order to get the bucks moving or start hunting deeper in the cover. The first option is a good one. The second is also good-if you have the time-but the third option carries some risk. Save it until the last few days of the season when you have nothing to lose. Late-season hunting revolves around food and weather. Combine high-energy food with a big change in temperature and you have the formula for success. Keep an eye on accuweather.com. When the rest of the world is burrowing into a pile of blankets, you should be breaking out your treestand. Things are finally turning your way.
