London Marathon Photos
Error: Path does not existThe London Marathon is one of the biggest running events in the world, and is one of the five top world marathons that make up the World Marathon Majors competition which has a $1 million prize purse. It has been held each spring in London since 1981. The race is currently sponsored by Virgin Money, as the Virgin London Marathon. Previously the event was sponsored by Flora (from 1996 to 2009). The 2010 London Marathon took place in April 2010. The 31st London Marathon took place on 17 April 2011.
Set over a largely flat course around the River Thames, the London Marathon is generally regarded as a very competitive and unpredictable event, and conducive to fast times. Spanning 42.195 kilometres (26 miles and 385 yards), it is the only Marathon course in the world that is run across two hemispheres, starting in the Eastern Hemisphere, crossing the Prime Meridian in Greenwich after 9.8 km (6.1 miles) and finishing in the Western Hemisphere.

D'Accord Guitar Chord Dictionary
Full user review
"Overpriced; chord finder misleads; better alternatives"
The fretboard is pretty and finger positions clear.
Chord finder close to useless and sometimes misleading (see below).
Cost: $29 U.S. is excessive compared to how little this software does. There are better online tools that are free.
Lots of mouse clicks required to do anything useful.Summary
Chord finder relies heavily on bottom note as root. For example, playing Am with an E bottom note (e.g., Am/E) generates this chord: Esus4(11/b13). Perhaps accurate but excessively complex. Take away the bottom E so that A becomes the bottom note and the chord reverts to Am! Finding the chord therefore depends on the user already knowing what the root is and making sure it is the bottom note. As another example, C/G (1st position C chord with a G bass) generated Gsus4(11/13). This is an unsophisticated algorithm that will generate results that are useless and even misleading for any players who don't already know a fair bit of chord theory.
One can search and find better and cheaper downloadable software.

GP Ciudad de Valladolid - 122.9km Marianne Vos (Nederland Bloeit) sprinted to victory ahead of Rosella Cavolli (SC MCipollini Giambenini) and Emma Johansson (Hitec) to win the 6th round of the World Cup GP Ciudad de Valladolid and secure her place as overall leader with 260 points. The course led the peloton out on a big loop to the south-west of Valladolid, up to the north by Tordesillas and Castromon, before it returned to Valladolid to after 91km of racing, to complete five 6.6km relatively flat local laps. There were number of climbs to break up the race. The first had a 700m altitude, while the highest point in the race was at 850 meters. After 80 km of racing the group were all together. As the peloton hit the first circuit, the peloton was in three groups. After 97km , Ina-Yoko Teutenberg (HTC Hightroad) attacked the group and managed to gain a small advantage of 10 seconds. She was caught but immediately a counter attack went. Oceania Champion, Australian Shara Gillow and making her return to racing having retired in 2009 was Fabiana Luberini (SC MCipollini Giambenini). The pair quickly gained a 20 second advantage. With 101km of racing completed, the escape was neutralised. A leading group of 20 riders approached the final stages of the race, the key riders in terms of the World Cup standings were in the group. The remaining peloton chased to close the gap in the leading group and managed to reformed a leading group of 60 riders formed. With one lap to go this had split again with nearly 30 left in the group. With 3 km to go, 8 riders escaped from the peloton. They included Marianne Vos (Nederland Bloeit), Emma Johansson (Hitec), Maaike Polspoel (Topsport Vlanderan). Elena Berlato (Top Girls), Judith Arndt (HTC Highroad), Lizzie Armitstead and Noemi Cantele (Garmin Cervelo) and Rosella Cavolli (SC MCipollini Giambenini). They took a small lead and could not be caught by the chase group. Vos jumped early and secured her third World Cup win of the season. The Dutchwoman will now wear the rainbow jersey in the Open de Suede Vargarda TTT on the 29th July in the team time trial, for the second year on a row. Garmin Cervelo may be a new look team for 2011 but this does not mean they won't be looking for another World Cup win this season, although there's much deeper pride at stake. The team, in its various incarnations, has never been beaten in a World Cup TTT.

HOISINGTON -- If Jared Vitztum and Peyton Hoffman, both sophomores on the Thomas More Prep-Marian boys' basketball team, knew what was on the line, TMP coach Joe Hertel wasn't sure they would have done as well as they did.
"Sometimes I think they are so young they haven't learned yet to get nervous. Both of them played big tonight," Hertel said. "All of my young players have made huge strides in maturity over the last month alone. I know it gets old me saying we're proud, but I really am. I'm proud of them."
Vitztum and Hoffman scored 13 points each and led third-seeded TMP (13-9) to a 55-52 comeback win over second-seeded Minneapolis (15-7) on Thursday in the Hoisington Class 3A sub-state semifinals. The Monarchs will play top-seeded Beloit (21-1) on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in Hoisington with a trip to the state tournament in Hutchinson going to the victor.
Beloit needed overtime to beat fifth seed Lyons (10-12), 72-71 on Thursday. Beloit was ranked No. 5 in Class 3A in the final KBCA poll of the season.
TMP's opportunity to play for the sub-state championship didn't look to be in the cards late in the third quarter against Minneapolis. The Monarchs trailed 44-31 with 2:01 to go until the fourth after they trailed 31-24 at halftime.
Shots weren't falling for TMP and its defense was average at best.
"Ultimately we made plays when we had to," Hertel said. "It wasn't pretty offensively. In fact, there were some times at the end of the game that showed we are still young. But I tell you what, these kids are really resilient."
Hoffman finished the third quarter with a 3-pointer, one of three he made for the game, to cut the Monarchs' deficit to 44-35 going to the final quarter.
Hoffman's final 3-pointer came a couple of possessions into the fourth and followed a basket by Vitztum, making it 44-40 Minneapolis.
It was the closest the game had been since the Lions led 13-9 in the second quarter.
TMP spent almost the rest of the fourth quarter at the foul line. The Monarchs made only one field goal over the final seven minutes. That field goal, however, was a 3-pointer by Vitztum to give the Monarchs a 51-48 edge with 56 seconds to play, TMP's first lead since it was 2-0.
TMP held on to the lead the rest of the game, but gave the Lions chances to win. A turnover on an inbound pass by TMP's Max Megaffin gave Minneapolis the ball under its own basket with 3.3 seconds to go, down three.
Then the Monarchs' defense stepped up and forced a contested 3-pointer by Minneapolis senior Brandon Davis at the buzzer that hit nothing but air.
"I got some young men with big hearts," Hertel said. "We proved in our last two regular season games that we can get down and come back. What a great experience that was. It built confidence and we were in that same hole tonight. We just kept battling."
TMP outscored Minneapolis 20-8 in the fourth quarter.
Vitztum and Hoffman were the only two players in double figures for TMP. Kameron Schmidt added eight, Jordan Gottschalk seven and Max Megaffin six.
Davis led Minneapolis with 13 points, while Alex Yoxall had 10.
"My post-game speech was don't be satisfied, don't let this be good enough," Hertel said. "Why not come to play Saturday and find a way to get to the big show? None of these boys have been there as a player and it's one of those things where I know what it's like, but you can't tell a young man what it's like to play there. He just has to get there."

A great deal of time and effort is spent by fundamentalist
Christians to validate that the story of Noah's Ark was a literal
fact as portrayed in the Bible. For believers, the story of the
Noah's Ark is one of the pillars of a Bible that has no errors
and is to be taken literally as absolute fact. Skeptics naturally
have problems with this story.
A common Christian remark regarding Bible accuracy is to point
out that many skeptics say that the Bible must be in error
because the Ark could not possibly have carried all the different
types of animals.
Christians will then produce a wide variety of detailed
feasibility studies, lengthy speculations, and good old
fashioned, "with God all things are possible"
rationalizations to prove that the whole Noah's Ark story is
historical fact.
The Noah's Ark scenario will always be claimed as accurate by
anyone who wants to believe that it really happened.
No rationalization is too far fetched if someone really wants and
needs to believe it happened.
If you need the story to be literally true, then it is.
Far more disturbing are the ramifications involved with
wanting to worship the deity that was supposed to have caused the
Christians will also display simulated models of Noah's Ark, and
while doing so they also present the biblical account of the
Flood, warning viewers about the judgment of God upon sin and of
the final coming judgment when all humans will stand before Jesus
who sits on his mighty throne(2 Cor 5:10).
Then they will claim that their God has provided a way to escape
any unpleasant consequences of this judgment through the precious
blood of Jesus, who paid the penalty for human sins by his death
on the Cross.
And here we come to the reason for the entire tedious
rationalization process in order to establish the Noah's Ark
event as factual history.
If the Noah's Ark story isn't 100% true, then other elements of
the Holy Bible may not be true either.
If people begin to doubt that the Holy Bible is the "Word"
of an infallible God, then the whole theological house of cards
can tumble down.
People are told to believe as "fact" that the
tribal Bible God which caused the Flood will judge them at some
future date.
In order to escape this judgment, people are told that they must
worship a man/god hybrid sacrifice called "Jesus".
All the disturbing elements of the Flood are bypassed and people
are steered away from examining the revealing insight into the
character of this tribal God which this story provides.
It's hard to imagine how animals are "wicked" or how
human fetuses are "sinners", yet these beings are
destroyed by the Bible God despite the fact that they had
committed no transgression.
Gen 6:6-7,17
And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and
it grieved him at his heart.
And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from
the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping
thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have
made them. And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters
upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of
life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth
shall die.
That a God would repent of what it created and kill off its own
entire creation, and not just the "sinful"
humans, indicates the kind of mental instability found in humans,
and should certainly not manifest itself in a perfect "God".
And if Jesus is really God as many Christians claim, then he is
the same deity responsible for this tremendous and widespread act
of destruction.
Many Christians chirp and sing that Jesus loves all the little
children of the world.
However, if the Bible is to be taken seriously, then Jesus loves
all the little children of the world only when it suits his
fancy. Jesus the God had no problem annihilating not only small
children and fetuses, but all the little animals and other
creatures of the world as well.
This is the same God who finds the aroma of burnt offerings
pleasing, who gives detailed instructions on how to kill animals
and burn them, who rejects some people before they are born, and
who hardens human hearts so they can serve his purpose.
The fact that Noah is told to take "extra" clean
animals along(Gen 7:2) is disturbing in itself since soon
after the ark lands, Noah takes some of the animals he went to
all the trouble of saving and kills them so God can sniff the
pleasing aroma of their burning flesh. This act of killing some
of the saved animals and birds and burning their flesh on an
altar was so sweet smelling to the nostrils of God that he
decided to never again flood the world(Gen 8:20-21).
The righteous Noah, his wife, his three sons and their wives are
saved by the "grace" of God to start the earthly
game all over again.
Yet, it isn't long before trouble starts.
After the Ark lands, the righteous Noah gets drunk and passes out
naked in his tent. One of his sons, Ham, sees his father passed
out naked and tells his two brothers about it. An utterly bizarre
sequence of events follow which result in Noah cursing his
grandchild(Ham's son Canaan), along with his offspring, to serve
an inferior, slave like role in society.
Gen 9:18-25
And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and
Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth
And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered
within his tent.
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father,
and told his two brethren without.
And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their
shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their
father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their
father's nakedness.
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had
done unto him.
And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of
servants shall he be unto his brethren.
The end result of this sorry episode is that Canaan and his
offspring are cursed because his father Ham saw Noah naked and
passed out in a drunken stupor. The offspring of Canaan, known as
Canaanites, are the very people that God instructs Moses and his
followers to utterly destroy as part of God's cosmic script being
acted out on earth(Deut 7:1-2).
The effects of the curse on Canaan are present over thousands of
years and vividly illustrated when Jesus himself referred to
Canaanites as "dogs", and reinforces the
inferior role of these people in society.
Matt 15:21-26
Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and
And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of
the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O
Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a
But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and
besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep
of the house of Israel.
Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
But he(Jesus) answered and said, It is not meet to take the
children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
By virtue of being a descendant of the cursed Canaan, this woman
has assigned to her the status of a "dog" and is
forced to play the role of a dog by begging and flattering Jesus
into healing her daughter.
The Flood itself is a monument to inept solutions as it failed to
solve the problem of wickedness which had infected the earth.
Since God is supposed to be omniscient, he flooded the world knowing
ahead of time that it wouldn't really solve anything.
After the flood, according to Christians, things then muddle
along for a few thousand years and at some point this Bible God
decides that a human sacrifice is the best "solution"
to the problem and cancels all his laws, his procedures for
atonement, and replaces them with a new system called
People are then told that they must believe all these
theological gymnastics or face eternal punishment at the hands of
this holy tribal "God".
Lost in all the hoopla is the question of what a person should do
if they simply can't bring themselves to respect, serve, and
worship this "God".
If a person makes it that far and still hasn't accepted this "savior",
they are told not to question the motive or actions of this "God"
because they are hopeless sinful wretches who are incapable of
proper thought because they are blinded by another character
called "Satan", who was also created by "God".
The whole mess boils down to a cosmic game invented by an alleged
"God" so it can amuse itself.
Legions of apologists have spent years and countless resources
trying to prop up this salvation shell game, which never once
addresses the question of what a human wretch is to do if he
finds this "God"( which is defined to him by
others) isn't holy or worthy of worship.
Skeptics are instructed that since God created everything, he has
the right to do whatever he wants with it.
No action on the part of this God, regardless of what it is, can
ever be examined or evaluated by any human standard.
God's ways are simply beyond scrutiny of any type because they
transcend all human analysis.
Isa 55:9
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my(God's)
ways higher than your ways, and my(God's) thoughts than your
At this point the Christian circular logic loop takes over and
unbelievers are told that:
"God is Holy because the Bible says so and the Bible is
the Word of God."
The whole cycle then spins around and around, century after
century, never resolving itself, proving that the human power of
rationalization has no equal.

GlobalFoundries (Sunnyvale, Calif.) teamed with EDA software vendor Cadence Design Systems Inc. (San Jose, Calif. to deliver this AMS design flow.
The flow encompasses analog block design and mixed signal design and covers the management of parasitic effects, rapid layout prototyping, analog layout guidelines and routing, choice of simulation corner cases, inductor synthesis and EM/IR analysis.
It is augmented with whitepapers and collateral on common challenges and GlobalFoundries-recommended fixes. It also incorporates top-level physical signoff steps for manufacturing using GlobalFoundries' 28-nm requirements for DRC, lithography simulation and CMP.
The AMS flow is designed to make use of features of GlobalFoundries' "gate-first" high-k metal-gate technology. The flow includes silicon-driven guidelines and recommendations for better manufacturability. Customers for the kit gain access to IP, libraries, reference kits and other foundry information. GlobalFoundries will also support DRC+, a system that uses two-dimensional shape-based pattern-matching to identify hard-to-manufacture structures. It does this 100 times faster than conventional methods, GlobalFoundries claimed.
The major elements of the AMS production design flow are due for completion in Q3 2010, with all of the flow steps supported by the GlobalFoundries physical design kit for 28-nm production. The reference flow contains PCells that enable advanced features within the Cadence Virtuoso design tools. The complete production-level AMS flow is expected to be released to customers in Q4 2010, with silicon validation scheduled for early 2011.

Bioethicist Tia Powell, M.D., says bioethics is not about technology.
From gene therapy to end of life issues, bioethicists are often asked for guidance to help families and caregivers make the best decisions for their loved ones. In this blog post for Einstein's The Doctor's Tablet, Dr. Powell argues what's becoming overlooked are the "old" questions of bioethics – the values, beliefs, desires and dignity of patients.

Singapore haze hits record high from Indonesia fires
Pollution levels soared for a third day in a row in Singapore, as smoky haze from fires in Indonesia shrouded the city state.
The Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) hit 401 at 12:00 on Friday (04:00 GMT) - the highest in Singapore's history.
The index also reached 400 in one part of Indonesia, which is readying helicopters and cloud-seeding equipment in an effort to tackle the fires.
Indonesia has said it is unfair to blame it solely for the forest fires.
A senior official in the Indonesian president's office said fires had been spotted on land owned by 32 companies in the region, some of them based in Malaysia and Singapore.
Schools in parts of Malaysia and Indonesia have closed temporarily.
Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsieng Loong warned on Thursday that the haze could remain in place for weeks.
"We can't tell how this problem is going to develop because it depends on the burning, it depends on the weather, it depends on the wind," he said.
"It can easily last for several weeks and quite possibly it could last longer until the dry season ends in Sumatra which may be September or October."
'Life threatening'Analysis
Indonesia is struggling to contain the raging forest fires that are causing the thick smog which is enveloping Singapore, parts of Malaysia and some Indonesian cities.
On Friday, the government despatched helicopters to the worst affected areas, in a bid to create artificial rain. The plan is to seed the clouds once the temperature is a bit cooler to induce rain over the burning forestland.
It is a big challenge. Fire-fighters on the ground have been working around the clock to put out the blazes, but they have spread to peatlands and are proving to be very difficult to extinguish. Officials have complained about a lack of resources and say they desperately need some rain to help.
Indonesia's weather agency says rainfall is not likely until 29 June. Singapore and Malaysia have both urged Indonesia to do more to solve this crisis. Singapore has offered aircraft to help with the cloud-seeding operation, but there needs to be clouds in the sky for it to work. This time of year is typically the hottest and driest on the island of Sumatra.
A PSI reading above 300 is defined as "hazardous", while Singapore government guidelines say a PSI reading of above 400 sustained for 24 hours "may be life-threatening to ill and elderly persons".
"Healthy people [may also] experience adverse symptoms that affect normal activity," the government says.
The PSI dropped down to 143 at 17:00 (09:00 GMT), although this is still classed as "unhealthy".
Before this week's episode, the previous air pollution record was from September 1997 during the 1997-1998 South East Asian Haze, when the PSI peaked at 226.
Singapore resident Nicole Wu told the BBC that she had stayed indoors for the past two days.
"It's terrible. In my flat the windows are all closed with the air conditioning on," she said. "My mother has to wear a mask to go shopping."
"I can't even see what's happening outside my house due to the smog. You can't see birds [or] moving objects," she added.
Philip Koh, a doctor, told AFP news agency that the number of medical consultations he had had in the past week had increased by 20%.
Continue reading the main story"My patients are telling me they are worried about how long this is going to last and how much higher this is going to go," he said.
In Indonesia's Riau province, where the fires are concentrated, the PSI reached 400 on Friday, the head of the local health office told the BBC.
Schools there are to remain closed until the air quality improves.
The chief of the health department Zainal Arifin said there was an "increasing number of asthma, lung, eye and skin problems due to higher CO2 levels".
"I call for residents to stay at home and reduce outdoor activities," he said.
Diplomatic strain"Start Quote
End QuoteThe face masks which are in high demand in Singapore can protect against the worst of the smog... [but] are unlikely to provide total protection"
Singapore's National Environment Agency has started providing hourly PSI updates on its website, in addition to the three-hourly updates it previously provided.
Around 300 schools in southern Malaysia have now been closed as a result of the smog. Schools in Singapore are currently closed for the holidays.
There are also reports of flight delays affecting both Singapore's Changi airport and Riau province in Indonesia.
The fires are caused by illegal slash-and-burn land clearance in Sumatra, to the west of Singapore.
The smog has strained diplomatic relations between Singapore and Indonesia - two countries that usually share good relations, the BBC's Karishma Vaswani in Jakarta reports.
Slash-and-burn clearances
- Slash-and-burn farming is a technique that involves cutting down vegetation and burning to clear land for cultivation
- It is cheaper than using excavators and bulldozers
- The illegal burning of forests to clear land for palm oil plantations has long been a problem in Indonesia - particularly during the dry season in the summer
- Indonesia's Environment Minister Balthazar Kambuaya has said the government is investigating several palm oil companies in this respect
- Some producers have already denied their companies use slash and burn land clearance
Mr Lee said Singapore had provided satellite date to Indonesia to help it identify companies involved and said that if any Singapore firms were involved, that would be addressed.
Indonesia's National Disaster Management Agency said it would deploy two helicopters to conduct "water-bombing" operations, as well as planes with cloud seeding equipment.
One of the Malaysian companies named by the Indonesian presidential official denied that it was burning forest to clear land, but said some small farmers operating on its property were doing so.
Palm oil giant Sime Darby said in a statement that it was strictly following its zero-burning policy throughout its operations, but that it could not control the activities of local growers farming on its concession area.
More than 100 Indonesian firefighters are attempting to put out the fires in Sumatra.
However, an official in Riau province said they were "overwhelmed and in a state of emergency".
"We have been fighting fires 24 hours a day for two weeks," Ahmad Saerozi, the head of the natural resources conservation agency in Riau, told AFP news agency.
He added that the fires were in peat around three or four metres below the ground, making it particularly hard to fight them.
"It is still burning under the surface so we have to stick a hose into the peat to douse the fire," he said.
"We take one to two hours to clear a hectare, and by then another fire has started elsewhere."
Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono said "all the country's resources" would be mobilised to extinguish the fires.

If the Colorado men's basketball team manages to move up into a tie for first place in the Pac-12 Conference standings, it would be the first time the Buffs have at least shared for the top spot during the second half of a league schedule since 1968-69 — when CU won the Big Eight Conference title (CU's last league title).
At 8-3 in the Pac-12, Colorado is tied with California for second place, a game behind Washington (9-2).
Colorado plays at Arizona on Thursday and at Arizona State on Saturday. Washington plays Thursday at Oregon and Sunday at Oregon State.

MP3 of the Day and Miami Music Festival Preview: "Bam in Amsterdam" by Music is a Weapon
Categories: MP3 of the Day, Miami Music Festival
Well, it seems like glory stories weren't the only great good thing MW brought back from their trip across the pond; they also brought back a song. In fact they brought back a track so infectiously anthemic that to simply call it a song would be selling it short. And if there's any justice in this unbrave new world of ours, what they wrought will sell anything but short.
The tune's entitled "Bam in Amsterdam" and it's got both the drift of the Continent about it as well as the unmistakable mark of American progress. A sort of love letter to the town that loves them, "Bam" surely must be the way MW feels every time they take the stage. Insistently with-it and consistently catchy, it's a picture perfect aural postcard sent back from the Yellow Brick Road. And if this wondrous little ditty doesn't end-up on some commercial or two, I'll eat my hat.
But don't take my biased words for it; listen yourself. Then remember you heard it here first.
MP3: Music is a Weapon - "Bam in Amsterdam"
Music is a Weapon plays Saturday, December 12 at 11 p.m., as part of the Miami Music Festival. Tobacco Road, 626 S. Miami Ave., Miami. Tickets are $10.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Slammers hold off Barrington for district title
Monday, July 8, 2013
ROCHESTER — Alexa Gagne knew one thing for certain — she did not want history repeating itself.
Barrington pitcher Drew Ceppetelli was up next and she plunked a two-run single to right to close the gap to 5-4 with still one out. Gagne got the next two outs on ground outs to end the threat. "We've had some great battles back and forth and they seem to beat us every time," said Barrington coach Derek Ceppetelli of this year's matches with Rochester, which have all been close. "We seem to get right there, but they seem to come out ahead of us." Rochester built a 3-0 lead through three innings, scoring twice in the first and once in the second. Emma Proulx had an RBI walk in the first while Toof added a run-scoring base hit. In the second inning, Winship reached on a single and later scored on Madison Strong's RBI bunt to make it 3-0.
"It helps any team when you can jump out to an early lead," said Rochester coach Brian Strong. "Especially when you can score more than one or two runs and get a little cushion. That did help us. … But they battled back and battled us to the end of the game."
Ceppetelli went five innings for Barrington. She had three Ks and five walks. |

Awesome Automatons, Part 1: The Saddest Robots Ever
By A Real Person on June 15, 2010
The Terminator. Wall-E. These idiots. Movies have brought us countless memorable robot characters who, through superior programming, human friendship, or the magic of Disney, learn to love. But the bad always comes with the good. Most of you are probably familiar with Marvin the Paranoid Android…and if you're not, go read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Now. No, seriously, get out of here.
Are they gone? Good. N00bz.
Okay, now ALL of you are familiar with Marvin, who was quite possibly the first clinically depressed robot. What could cause depression in a cold, heartless computer? Well, being overqualified for your job is one possibility, but here are a couple more of the saddest robots I've ever seen (and these ones are real).
MABEL, a bipedal robot created by engineers over at the University of Michigan (Go Blue!), was designed to walk rough and changing terrains. These sadistic engineers decided that the best way to test MABEL's limits would be to push it until its leg broke clean off. It's a sad sight to see, a defeated robot slumped over but still dragging around in a circle.
But a robot doesn't have to break to feel defeated. This robotic chess set (built from LEGO and LEGO-like products) is a pretty awesome machine, playing through a full chess game run by a laptop, fully automated. If you watch the video below, you can see at 1:00 that the chess pieces even politely leave the board when they've been captured. But, the sad, dejected way they do so had me in stitches. I know, I'm cruel, but watch from 1:56 to 2:17 as the knight makes the long trek around the board and shows up again in the background and tell me that's not hilarious. It's like the kid who gets knocked out first in dodgeball and has to go sit on his own until the next game starts.
via Engadget and geeky-gadgets
Got a favorite robot? Put it in the comments and maybe I'll steal it and use it in another post and pretend I've never heard of you.
Awesome post!
And I almost hesitate to show you this because it kind of scarred me for life. But…you need to see it – The Terrifying Robot Childhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejCYqynPAjI&feature=player_embedded
I humbly apologize if this seems disrespectful, i mean no harm, but with an intro like that I was really wanting this to only be about Marvin… and choosing the voice of Alan Rickman was pure genius in the movie. Oh I wish I wish the first one didn't bomb in theaters so the rest of the series could be made.
Oh hell!
Asimo the fall-downey robot at a expo a year or two ago. That was so sad! They brought out a curtain (in pure Japanese style) to cover up the embarrassing fall.
Seen the movie Saturn 3? What was sadder than Kirk Douglas' 70yr old manboobs? The robot Hector exploding into a million pieces.
And just all 'round sad? Slim Pickens doing the voice of B.O.B. from Disney's The Black Hole.
@Sarah that's absolutely terrifying!
@DeadRobot good ones, I haven't seen Saturn 3 but I'll check it out.
@Brandon agreed, I think anytime Alan Rickman is chosen for a role it's a stroke of genius, but that was pure brilliance. And Sam Rockwell basing his Zaphod on George W. Bush? Absolutely perfect. I promise one of these days I'll do a pure HHGTG post for ya.
I really liked when the king at the chess game clenched his fist, but I always waited for that "Short Circuit" moment where a pawn rebuilds itself as a queen – hey, it's LEGO after all!
Not a robot, but definitely automated, the animatronic face-ripping Lou Reed puppet from "No Money Down" as seen here, scaring millions of people for years to come (it gets really terrifying at 1:35):
… that's one SAD robot, man.
[…] by a laptop, so this is actually technically pretty trivial. Still a cool execution. (via Nerdist) posted @ June 15th, 2010 in Audio Visual, Robots! | Tags: chess, disco floor, LEGO | […]
[…] last robot post showed some sad, dejected robots…so it's about time we talked about some happy ones. […]

The Sinister Seven: Kane Hodder
Late last year I talked with actor/stuntman Kane Hodder about the biography he had just completed with co-author Michael Aloisi. Unmasked: The True Story of the World's Most Prolific Cinematic Killer covers much of the territory you'd expect — Hodder's youth, his first jobs as a Hollywood stuntman, his rise to cult fame as the man in the hockey mask — but it also offers surprisingly candid accounts of a few of the darkest episodes in the actor's life, including his childhood run-ins with bullies and the near-fatal burn injury that almost ended his career just as it was getting started. I've been waiting for the right time to post the interview; I don't think there'll ever be a better occasion than 2012′s first Friday the 13th.
Sinister Seven
Adam Green's 2006 slasher film Hatchet boldly branded itself a return to "old-school American horror" – and rightly so. The story of supernatural killer Victor Crowley was unremittingly bloody, earning the ire of the MPAA, who bestowed it with the commercial kiss of death: an NC17. Even more cartoonish and bloody, Hatchet II amps up the mayhem considerably.

Before I dig into the main subject, new label 2M1 Records will be releasing Andy Garfield's music for Adam Green's Frozen on CD in mid-December, followed later by a double-bill CD of Hatchet and Hatchet II.

Metal George Gets Both Rocked And Shocked!
And now a field report from Rue Morgue Audio Drome correspondent George Pacheco a.k.a. Metal George, with visual aids courtesy of photographer-at-large Melanie Skypeck:
This year's installment of Worcester, Massachusett's annual Rock and Shock horror and music convention upped the ante in a big way, all across the board.
How shall we count the ways? Hmm…well, let's see: how about holding a Rob Zombie and ALICE FUCKING COOPER concert as part of the festivities? Hell to the yeah, folks. Massconcerts held the distinction of not only presenting the area's premier horror convention, but also kicking out three days of live music next door at the city's Palladium venue…

News Release 366
Flooding temporarily closes Big Lake State Park
Volume 38-366 (For Immediate Release)
Contact: Judd Slivka
JEFFERSON CITY, MO., JUNE 22, 2010 – Water from a breached levee has temporarily closed Big Lake State Park in Holt County in northwest Missouri. Missouri Department of Natural Resources officials anticipate the park will be closed at least until August but will continue to evaluate the situation to determine when the park can reopen.
As of 11 a.m. Monday morning, approximately 70 percent of the 407-acre park had water on the ground at varying levels. Water covers the majority of the campsites and is in the day-use vault toilet, office basement and south showerhouse. Water is near the dining lodge, store and motel. The water is expected to continue to rise today and is predicted to crest Wednesday. Park staff are using boats to access the park to check on facilities.
Early warning about anticipated flooding gave the department time to safely evacuate the park and make preparations for the flooding that is expected. Heavy rainfall in northwest Missouri prompted the department to close the park's campground early last week. The breach of the Union Township Levee north of the park on Thursday prompted the closing of the entire park as flood waters began to move closer to the park.
"We worked closely with the State Emergency Management Agency and local officials and it gave us the information we needed to make the correct decision and prepare for the coming floodwaters," said Bill Bryan, director of the department's Division of State Parks.
Because of its location on an oxbow lake near the Missouri River, Big Lake State park has experienced flooding in the past and has plans in place for how to deal with flooding situations. Park staff immediately began taking steps to prepare for the approaching water.
In anticipation of the flooding, campers and lodging guests were evacuated and refunds issued. Park staff began removing furniture and other items and shutting off utilities. Campers and lodging guests with reservations were notified about the situation. Camping reservations are not being accepted at this time and will resume once officials determine the extent of damage and when the park can reopen.
Although plans for celebrating the Fourth of July at Big Lake State Park may not be possible, there are other state parks in northwest Missouri that will be open for campers and other visitors. These include Wallace State Park near Cameron, Weston Bend State Park near Weston, Watkins Mill State Park and State Historic Site near Lawson and Lewis and Clark State Park near Rushville. For information about these state parks, visit mostateparks.com.
"We know that Big Lake State Park is not the only place in the area that has been flooded. Our thoughts are with the surrounding homeowners, farmers and other neighbors as we recover and rebuild," Bryan said.
To check the status of Big Lake State Park or for more information about Missouri state parks, go to mostateparks.com or call the Department of Natural Resources toll free at 800-334-6946 (voice) or 800-379-2419 (TDD). To inquire about reservations for the motel and cabins, call 660-442-5432.

JasFloridaDisappointedI bought this brush because a similar type brush (different brand that Folica didn't have) was recommended by my stylist. The main purpose was to lose less hair when using it. That didn't happen. In fact I'm losing more hair now with this brush. Definitely disappointed.posted Jul 17, 2012Link to this post
