Goonies Style, Carl Sagan and Hitting Peak Beard
Watches, Drake's London and Abe Lincoln's Beard
Today's must-reads from around the Internet.
Cinematic Christmas Style and the New Stingray
Today's must-reads from around the Internet.
In Memory of My First Beard
Two days ago, I lost my firstborn beard.
All right, so I didn't really "lose" my beard. I shaved it off using a beard trimmer, too many disposable razors and a despicable amount of shower water. Also, a shaving gel infused with something called "Australian quandong fruit," but I digress.
The Kempt Five
Every Wednesday from here on out, we're giving you a piece of our minds. Actually, more like five pieces. It's a chance to get a deeper look into what makes the minds behind Kempt tick—you know, beyond the usual Internet handsomeness we're serving up daily. So welcome to our most personal weekly feature: The Kempt Five.
The Spring Must-Haves
If you're wondering why it's feeling a bit more spring-like on Kempt today, we'd like to direct your attention to the column on the left—where we've refreshed our seasonal crop of must-haves.
We've conjured a spring fever dream of baseball, gardening and corduroys that don't have a hint of fall in them. Allow us to show you the way.»
Classifying Collars and Getting Tough on jOBS
Collar ID: The Wall Street Journal dives headlong into the issue of shirt collars and their many iterations of late.
Lloyd Banks: There's been a considerable amount of gnashing of the teeth over the beard Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein grew while vacationing in Davos, Switzerland. David Coggins reports.
Totally Rad: Bullett digs deep on the aesthetic of designer Rad Hourani, only to find a conundrum wrapped in a mystery enshrouded in asexuality.
Woz Happenin': The Woz questions the verisimilitude of the new biopic about Apple's late, turtlenecked CEO jOBS, according to Gizmodo.
The NHL Is Back... and Haggard as Ever
It's never easy to see the silver lining when your livelihood is in jeopardy, which is why we can excuse all of the unkempt beards we're seeing skate into training camps now that the NHL has finally returned from its lockout hiatus.
In fact, we'd like to applaud their commitment to letting themselves go. Take a moment to peer into Brent Burns's thicket of tangled wilderness. It's at the same time magnificent and horrifying—the man looks like he's spent the entire off-season running with a pack of wolves. It's an impressive feat, seeing as hockey players are already considered some of the gruffest athletes out there.
Dusting Off: The Bearded President
We'll assume you either ended last night enjoying the sweet taste of victory, or in kind of a weird place... You also might've caught the presidential election.
We came away from the whole thing longing for the days of yore, when this great nation was ruled by men as grizzled as their jawlines.
Not since the likes of Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, a fellow by the name of Honest Abe and just about every US president in the second half of the 19th century have we had a president with some sort of facial follicle to pensively stroke while guiding this fair land. Back then it was more unusual to run for president and not have a crazy-ass beard.

There's a word for games like The Order: 1886. Rental.
Ten years later, this frustrating follow-up to Canvas Curse feels shallow and soulless by comparison.
The chaos and fun of Saints Row is fully intact in the underworld, but a new setting can only go so far.
Game » consists of 4 releases. Released Sep 22, 2008
Sure, these days have almost every game sporting the newfangled 3D, but way back when, everyone had to live with plain old 2D. 2D, or two dimensions, limit the game to scrolling backgrounds, but some games even now make use of this basic concept.
A protagonist who lacks some or all of the qualities traditionally seen as heroic.
An atmospheric phenomenon that causes a fantastic natural light display.
The game automatically saves for you when you reach certain points. Implemented in order to reduce frustration for forgetful savers.
Levels that progress forward by themselves at a fixed rate.
Backtracking is the act of navigating through previously explored areas, usually for the purpose of progressing in an objective-based adventure game. Players who are lost may also backtrack to reorient themselves.
Originally the Brown Sugar Pirates, the Black Sugar Gang is the nefarious group lead by Captain Syrup.
The concept of moving blocks around to certain areas such as highlighted squares, or switches, or in order to get past a maze.
Bonus levels, rounds, or stages give players a chance to gain extra points, powerups, or lives. Occasionally bonus stages will play completely different than the rest of the game, like as a slot machine or pinball minigame.
Boost takes a game to a new level giving players a greater level of speed. This speed opens up new doors to sports games, driving games, and any game that can benefit from the reward of speed.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
Video game bosses are usually the main antagonist, and arch nemesis of the main protagonist. In most cases the end of a game is when the main character defeats the final boss.
Games that encourage the beating of small and/or defenseless creatures.
Hand-drawn or computer-generated animation.
Cartoon physics refers to games which do not conform to regular physics, but the "laws" are for a humorous bent rather than conforming to reality. Sometimes it ignores physical laws, like gravity, or tweaks them, like not being totally blown away by dynamite.
When the protagonist is pursuing someone or something in an effort to kill or capture.
Climbing is a common tradition in games, particularly platformers. There is often a particular type of surface that can be climbed, and it has a recognizably different look than other surfaces in the game. Climbing ladders or stairs doesn't count.
Collectibles are items such as coins, rings, gems, packages etc. that can be gathered, usually for some kind of reward, or sometimes to simply beat a level. Often (almost too often) the source of earning achievements and trophies on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
The ultimate pressure feature. You have to complete the task at hand, be it finishing your opponent or cutting the right wire, in the allotted time depending on which game you're playing. So be quick or you lose.
Currency has all forms in video games. It is used to buy characters, vehicles, weapons, and more.
The concept of a helpless female character in desperate need of rescuing by a male protagonist, in most cases from a villain, or from a form of impending doom.
A quick burst of speed that propels the player slightly forward or backwards.
Sometimes designers add old-school things on purpose to enhance game design.
The 2008 E3 Media & Business Summit took place at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California on July 15-17.
When a game lets you grab enemies and throw them as projectiles. Commonly found in platformers, but also sometimes found in over-the-top 3rd person action games.
Mustaches are often found on the evil villain of cartoons to let the audience know just how evil they are, or used in parody of them.
A fictional location in video games inspired by or based on a real location from Far East Asia such as China, Korea, Japan or Vietnam.
Games that feature an antagonist--someone who opposes the game's protagonist--that is a woman.
Cold-blooded aquatic animals that have scales and breathe through gills.
Floating Islands are land masses (anywhere from island size to continental size) that float either by the use of magic or some other force.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) _ Jury selection is scheduled to get under way Monday in the trial of a University of Kansas student accused of severely injuring his ex-girlfriend in an October 2007 attack.
Matthew Jaeger is charged in Douglas County District Court with aggravated kidnapping, aggravated battery, aggravated burglary and making a criminal threat.
The victim testified during a preliminary hearing that the attack happened after Jaeger broke into her apartment and found her with another man. Jaeger is trained in a Brazilian form of jiujitsu, and the victim said he choked her until she became unconscious.
Prosecutors said he dragged her into the back seat of his car, which his friend was driving, and fled.
Lawrence police later stopped the car and found the injured woman. She was hospitalized for nearly two weeks.

Royal Jordanian to fly to New York six times a week this summer
Royal Jordan will introduce an additional two weekly flights to New York during June and July this summer, bringing the number of scheduled flights operating on this vital route to six weekly.
The two extra flights to JFK will be run via Montreal every Monday and Thursday. Royal Jordanian has been operating direct scheduled flights to Montreal, Canada, since 2007.
The most recent step is taken to serve the growing number of passengers flying on the Amman-New York route during the peak summer season.
RJ's direct four weekly flights to JFK will rise to five weekly in August. Royal Jordanian operates frequent direct flights between Amman and North America using its wide-bodied A330 and A340 aircraft, including daily flights to Chicago and two weekly flights to Detroit, in addition to the flights to New York and Montreal mentioned above.
The two additional frequencies via Montreal will reach JFK Airport at 10:40 am, giving ample time to passengers wishing to connect to other cities in the US.
RJ was the first Arab carrier to start operations between the Middle East and New York, in 1977.

According to government sources, Uzbekistan's gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 8.1% in the first half of 2014, up slightly from 8.0% in the same period of 2013. On the supply side, growth was driven by gains of 8.1% in industry and 14.2% in services, the latter reflecting strong performances in finance and telecommunications. Agriculture rose by 6.9%, as favorable weather contributed to a record grain harvest and higher fruit and vegetable output.
Investment was the main source of growth on the demand side, with gross fixed capital formation rising by 10.8% as the government continued implementing large development programs. Although the trade balance had moved into surplus by the end of the second quarter, lower global prices for cotton and gold, coupled with decelerating growth in such key trading partners as the Russian Federation, the People's Republic of China, the Republic of Korea, and Ukraine, have begun to affect external demand. The possible further weakening of the already stagnating economy of the Russian Federation has raised additional risks to domestic consumption in the form of a projected fall in remittances. The deteriorating external environment prompts downward revisions in the growth forecasts for 2014 and 2015.
Selected Economic Indicators (%) - Uzbekistan | 2014 | 2015 | ||
ADO 2014 | Update | ADO 2014 | Update | |
GDP Growth | 8.0 | 7.6 | 7.8 | 7.1 |
Inflation | 11.0 | 11.0 | 10.0 | 10.0 |
Current Account Balance (share of GDP) | 4.7 | 3.9 | 3.6 | 2.8 |
Source: ADB estimates.
The government reported that average monthly inflation in the first quarter of 2014 was 0.9%, or 11.3% on an annualized basis, identical to consumer price index increases in the first quarter of 2011, 2012, and 2013. As trends in supply-and-demand factors of inflation have generally followed the scenarios projected in the Asian Development Outlook (ADO) 2014 in April, the earlier inflation forecasts are retained.
Unexpectedly weak trade performance in the first half of 2014 and slowing growth in Uzbekistan's main trading partners call for a more conservative forecast for the current account balance. Thus, the current account surpluses projected for 2014 and 2015 are both reduced by 0.8 percentage points.

How's everyone feeling this morning? If you went out last night there is a good chance that you had good ol' champagne, most likely on top of everything else. It's too late to warn you of the "beer before liquor, never the sicker" rules which we usually ignore anyway, but here are some tips for dealing with the merriment after effects
Congratulations Per Carlson!!!

I know, it sounds like something out of a horror movie. I'm still trying to figure out if I'm impressed or grossed out.
All right everyone, this is your first week of local shows in 2014! Make your New Years resolution to go support some local bands.
You know these Las Vegas rockers from their release "Soldiers." They have been working hard on some new music and now, Otherwise is letting their fans have it for free! 'Enjoy the Pain' has seven new tracks and they are offering the EP to their fans as a free download. Do not go into this EP expecting "Soldiers"
Twas the nigh before Christmas eve,
And on the Vegas Strip,
Some idiot left a bag of cash in a cab,
And the driver was awesome enough to not take it as a tip!
Little Giants were on an extended hiatus but have not quite called it quits. The Holidays have brought all the band members back to the Missoula area and they are playing a show for you the Friday after Christmas!
So there I was at the Blacktop Ballet, sitting at the tip rail, making phallic shapes with my dollar bills and trying to make them stand up on the not so flat barrier that separated me from the stage
We have all been broke and have done some couch digging for some extra change to get that beer while we wait on payday to come back around. This Florida man tried to trade a live gator! I'm not a gator hunter, but that seems like a lot of trouble to just get a few brewskies!
Ahhh, the Holidays, full of snow, cheer, and those awkward family gatherings. If you need a little extra "Christmas spirit" but want to do something a little fancier than Baileys in your coffee, here are some ideas to warm you up while carrying you though this holiday season

Colo. Senate committee votes to allow married same-sex couples to file joint tax returns
The measure if approved would adjust state statutes to link a resident's formal filing status on both Colorado and Federal tax returns.
The measure if approved would adjust state statutes to link a resident's formal filing status on both Colorado and Federal tax returns.
With the passage of the Colorado Civil Union Act, the Colorado General Assembly provided thousands of committed couples with legal protections and responsibilities. The bill went into effect on May, 1, 2013.
Wednesday, the Supreme Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, and made a ruling in the Prop 8 case-- California's ban on gay marriage.
Wednesday's U.S. Supreme Court decisions on gay marriage won't have a direct impact on Colorado law but that doesn't mean the rulings, which overturned the federal Defense of Marriage Act and cleared the way for gay marriage to resume in California, won't be felt here, too.
Any day now, the U.S. Supreme Court will rule in two historic cases that have to do with gay marriage. One tests the constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA.
Colorado lawmakers have approved a bill to allow gay couples to form civil unions. The bill becomes law on May 1st.
At the stroke of midnight, civil unions became the law of the land in Colorado.
A roundup of all the state government news this week.
Almost immediately after civil unions passed this week in the Colorado legislature, we began asking for your reaction to the news and how it affects your life through our Public Insight Network.
Over the past three years, hundreds of people have come to the state Capitol to testify for or against civil unions.

Ocean views await at this enchating resort that is nestled on rain-forest slopes and is accessed by a funicular train that descends to a private bay on the Son Tra Peninsula. It took famed architect Bill Bensley six years to design this masterpiece. It's where Vietnamese architecture meets modern design. The colors and patterns are intense, with black and white fabrics splashed with a fiery red that begins in the marble lobby and continues throughout the 197 guest rooms.
Suites have indoor-outdoor living rooms, private swimming pools, and wet bars. There are three restaurants, a library, French cooking school, Kids' Club, and Teen Center.

What They Say
Marketing and business strategy director Marc Bell said: "With the addition of the 66+ cash plan, Society members of all ages now have the opportunity to apply for a cash plan product. The cash plans, together with our ever-improving core product, gives a whole new level of healthcare reassurance."
What We Say
Andy Couchman
"At a time when simplified products are (or should be) on everyone's agenda, it is worth reminding ourselves that some products have long fallen into this category. We applaud Benenden (and Engage) for targeting older people too, offering a plan that offers the benefits most suited to (and affordable to) older people.
"As with other products reviewed recently, we do feel that all insurers should now explain exactly what they mean by exclusions such as not covering pre-existing conditions. That is especially important for older customers, who are more likely to have pre-existing conditions. All that is needed is a full explanation and an example or two of what is meant by a term that many people outside the insurance world simply never use. That said, this is a simple and appealing plan that offers relatively low benefits, but at affordable premiums too."
"Should networks compel advisers to talk about protection?" Nick Jones of Exeter Family Friendly

I've been reading around on how to install it and it "seems" like it would work for our Metro pcs S3. But has anyone tried it and confirmed it worked?
installed is such a strong word, can you install it and use it instead of android? no... instead you can use an iso and mount it, then run it along side android, cool concept except its pretty useless
Like dual booting it? and oh well i was just curious cuz it would be pretty cool to have. I wouldn't have a real use for it
no, you mount the iso and it runs kind of like a virtual machine and you open up remote desktop to it.

This peacock inspired wedding is so vibrant and rich, that it will hold you over the last few weeks of winter right into spring!
This bride is the perfect fit for this bright colored affair, because her vibrantly colored red hair is the perfect complement to the blue and purple hues used throughout the entire space.
The wedding was held at the elegant Creekside Chapel, which was the perfect backdrop to this beautiful day. The timeless ceremony space features two over-the-top chandeliers which are reminiscent of peacock feathers in the ornate detailing of the metal work. The simple woodwork of the space also allowed the bride and her fun vibrant colors shine, with everyone's eyes focused on the bride and groom.
The elegance continued over into the reception space, where the tables alternated in whites and peacock green, with eye catching floral centerpieces overflowing with peacock feathers, orchids, roses, and hydrangeas. The vibrant colors of the wedding were paired perfectly against the simple look of the room. Creekside creates a look that is both timeless and chic, which acted like a blank canvas for the bride to create her dream wedding on.
The bride wore a simple fit and flare gown that featured an elegant beaded belt at the waist, and an over-the-top ruffled skirt which created a look of a peacock's tail of feathers flowing elegantly behind the bride.
Her bridesmaids wore floor length gowns that all had the same illusion neckline and flowing style, which perfectly flattered each of their body types. They made this elegant style really standout by each choosing their gown in a different color, that paired perfectly with the bride's peacock vision.

Comment: AquaDraw Classic is a great for encouraging kids to take their first creative steps and because the pen is only filled with water there are no accidents that make a mess of your home. This version of the classic drawing toy has been refreshed to add extra play value with hidden numbers, letters of the alphabet and pictures for kids to colour over and magically reveal round the outside of the mat. Let little hands create their own masterpieces and as the picture dries, watch the images magically fade away ready for the next creation. Suitable from 18 months plus

Fast-Talk Gets Right to the Point
Fast-Talk Gets Right to the Point
Jason Brooks
Posted 2002-07-03
Audio processing engine lets listeners sift through recordings to find relevant termsby sounding them out.
While carrying out testing for the
virtual meeting eVal extravaganza
that appears in the July 1 issue of eWEEK, one of the product features that most appealed to our Corporate Partner judges was the capacity for recording meetingspresentation slides, whiteboard doodles, audio comments and all. It makes great senseif youve brought together your employees and partners for a meeting of the minds, why shouldnt those not in attendance also benefit from the productivity-packed proceedings?
It sounds great until its time for those absent from the meeting to plow through hours of recordings, throughout which the relevant information lies scattered and not easily accessible. Hey, if someone didnt have the time to attend a meeting initially, they may not have the time to sit through a canned version of it, either.
Recently, Ive been testing a technology from Fast-Talk Communications Inc. that could help companies cut through the clutter of recorded materials to pick out the parts they need more quickly than a full viewing could permit. The system takes .WAV audio files, breaks them up into their individual phonemes, and generates a large text file where these phonemes are indexed for text searching. Software algorithms convert search terms to their constituent phonemes, enabling users to locate specific words in these recordings. Alternatively, I could generate a phoneme index while recording live or streaming content.
I used a technology demo version of Fast-Talks Phonetic Processing Engine to process and search through the audio recording of our most recent
IT Roundtable discussion
I was too busy writing that virtual meeting eVal to attend in person, honest. I was impressed by how quickly and how flexibly the Fast-Talk technology worked, particularly with odd product names and other proper nouns, and herein lies one of the major strengths of this approach compared to a strategy like speech to text. A speech-to-text engine relies heavily on its dictionary. When one of these engines turns a spoken word into a written one, it must judge which of the terms in its internal lexicon best matches the word its heard. Computers make lousy judges, and many terms relevant to our lives and work wont appear in any speech-to-text lexicon. By focusing on sounds rather than words, the Fast-Talk engine sets the bar on the sort of judgments it attempts much lower. As a result, no matter how oddly a company has named itself in a run for one of the few remaining combinations of syllables that havent yet been claimed as a .com Web address, Fast-Talks engine can help you find ityou need only spell the name the way it sounds, and the software will locate the word. This technology would make an excellent addition to any of the virtual meeting products we tested, or for any application that works to make multimedia content more accessible.
