The rumours are true - Apple is launching its iPad Mini alongside the iPhone 5 in early Autumn, providing all the same fun gadgetry of a regular iPad but in a neat and compact 7.85 inch tablet. The competition is rife with Amazon and Google spewing out rival devices, including the Kindle Fire and Nexus 7, in preparation for this year's Tablet rush. Apple hopes to squash this competition with the release of the iPad Mini, lending weight to the idea of a 'budget iPad' in order to compete with the lower priced android slates creeping into the market.
Lexhag visit Escape Studios
A short time ago, our current students were treated to a presentation from some chaps from Lexhag Visual Effects. Lexhag are a small post production house with in house grading capabilities and benefit from years of on-set experience to create stunning effects for mid-level tv shows, such as Whitechapel and The Fades. We were visted by Effects Supervisor Alexis Haggar, founder of Lexhag and fellow escapee (from way back when), and Senior Producer Dan Marbrook. They took the time to come exhibit some shows they'd worked on, so the Escape Students could see the quality of work a small studio can produce.
A Special VES Screening of Pixar's BRAVE
I had the opportunity to watch a VES (Visual Effects Society) preview screening of Pixar's Brave, a few weeks back. And this screening, like many VES screenings, was a very special one. We were greeted by two guest speakers who had come all the way from the US to answer questions from the London professional visual effects community, and well as some kids along for the ride to see the amazing red locks of the heroine, Princess Merida. Director Mark Andrews and Producer Katherine Serafian provided fascinating trivia about the whole process of making this film.
Patching Up ZBrush
Last week it was announced that Pixologic released ZBrush 4R4, a free upgrade that is available for current registered license holders. But it seems that the love from Pixologic does not end there...less than two weeks after the release of 4R4, ZBrush has a patch upgrade.
New Relationship Manager at Escape Studios
There have been some exciting changes at Escape Studios recently, and with that we are very pleased to welcome our new Relationship Manager, Anita Gribble. In this role Anita will have two main responsibilities. One is to work closely with post houses up and down the country to continue building on the industry coaching scheme we currently have for our full-time students. As well as this she will be helping to maintain our relationship with recruiters at a variety of post houses to further benefit our students.
...New Lands...
Fans of French Electro Duo 'Justice' will be content this week as they release the adrenalin fuelled, VFX heavy video for their latest single 'New Lands'. A brainchild of the bands work with production company 'CANADA', this video depicts a violent futuristic combination of American football and baseball, (with some motorbikes thrown in for good measure) VFX company Glassworks Barcelona bring the video to life, with sequences that match, and at some points, (speaking subjectively of course) exceed the excitement of the song.
Escapees Work on New UK Zombie Flick
Since 2002's 28 Days Later, the world has seen the return of the zombie film - in a massive way, and in the last 10 years we have been witness to films of this genre in all manner of shapes and forms.
Interview with Legendary Matte Artist
The art of filmmaking has come a long way over the last 100 years. The technology we use today to create breath-taking scenes continues to push the boundaries of high-definition and realism, but we should never forget the genius of film crews who didn't have the opportunity to 'fix it in post' or rely on computer graphics to set the scene. As lots of you know, some of the best moments in film history were created by filmmakers having to think on their feet, making the best of an impossible situation. And of course there are certain skills that were essential to the filmmaking process back then that will start to be forgotten due to the rise in post-production capabilities and accessibility.
IKinema LiveAction
SIGGRAPH is going to be bursting at the seams with new releases, with UK based IKinema set to unveil IKinema LiveAction at the LA conference next week.

Escapee Reunion at Saddington Baynes
Last Wednesday we sauntered down to our friends at Saddington Baynes, devoured some gourmet Pizza, washed it down with some ice cold beer and cleansed our pallets with some invigorating VFX related conversation, all in the name of our second graduate reunion…who says you can't mix business with pleasure? And with a high calibre of industry employed attendees from the likes of Double Negative, Framestore, The Mill and MPC London, conversation was rife.
Like A Kid In A Candy Store
Last week I accompanied the current Compositing class on a trip to the MPC studio in London. It's all part of the industry mentoring scheme we're encouraging at Escape, as we work to prepare our students for the working world. With aspirations for one day working in the industry, we feel it's really important for all our students to get a taste for what is expected from them as early as possible in their training. Irene Bonilla was one student who joined us that day, and here's what she had to say about it...
Still waiting to hear from VFX companies? Improve your Compositing Demo Reel!
It's been a little quiet for a lot of Compositors this summer, but there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. I'm hearing that some companies will be busy this Autumn and into next year. So while you're waiting for that call, there are lots of things you can do to spend this down time wisely.

There they were. The "famous five." The most popular boys in your entire Highschool.
It sickened you to look at them. They were the very you were a nerd. Because you wanted to stay far, far away from them. So that you didn't fall in love with them. Walking into the class, you heard sniggering from behind you when you sat down, and you turned to see the 5 looking down at you.
You glared at them.
"What do you want?" You asked rudely.
They smirk, and Lukas leans down, "You." He whispers. You get up straight away and move to another seat, leaving a trail of jelous glares from other girls.
The rest of the day went quite normally, apart from the sneaky looks they kept stealing of your butt, the occasional pick-up line and threat from them and their fan-girls.
At the end of the day, your teacher told you that you'd be tutoring a boy because he really needed to pass this next test he had, and you were top of the class. To your horror it was Mathias Kohler. Crud.
You sat down, glaring daggers at him.
"So... Um... What're you gonna teach me first?" he asks nervously.
"How about how to NOT be a pervert?" You growl.
He sweatdropps, "S-sorry."
"What the crap is your problem?" You ask.
"Spit it out."
"I'vekindofhadacrushonyouforages...actuallyallfiveofushave,butmethemost.I'velovedyousinceIfirstsawyou." He gabbles, and you make out, crush on you, all five of us have, I've loved you.
You grow red with anger, "THIS IS SOME KIND OF SICK JOKE, ISN'T IT?"
You yell, whipping your head around as if you expected Lukas to leap out and scream: YOU JUST GOT PRANKED! In your face.
When nothing happens, you push him away from you and storm out of the class.
"Well, that failed."

Jedidiah Morse Remarks and Suggestions on the Indians of America in 1822
Posted By Dennis On In Native American | No Comments
Discover your
family's story.
Enter a grandparent's name to get started.
These remarks and suggestions I had prepared with much thought and labor, and at considerable length, conceiving the subject to have a very important bearing on the benevolent object of the government. But on reflection, that so many able, official reports had been made upon it by heads of Department and Committees of Congress, much more competent than myself to discuss and illustrate a subject of this complex and delicate nature, and that there are considerable diversities of opinion in respect to the plan most proper to be adopted and pursued, I have thought it would be prudent in me to lay aside what I had prepared, and to confine myself to a simple statement of my own opinion, as to the best manner of conducting the Indian Trade, and of the reasons which support this opinion.
Before I make this statement, it is proper to remark, that the present mode of carrying on the Indian trade, partly by Government, on the Factory system; and partly by licensed Traders, appears to have few, if any, advocates; and I presume will certainly and readily be abandoned. The question which seems to divide those who have considered this subject, is, whether the government shall take this trade wholly into their own hands, and provide a capital competent to the purpose; or give it up wholly into the hands of licensed Traders, duly regulated and restricted by
I give here these Remarks and Suggestions, as they were presented to the President and Congress. The Report on Indian Trade was given temporarily, and in this form is here inserted, while, in fact, it makes apart of the whole. This subject will be again resumed under the general head of Remarks unit Suggestions, which close this Report.
It appears from the tense of the official reports, which have been made on the subject, that the public feeling and opinion are, prevailingly, in favor of the latter course. The statement of my own views will, therefore, be predicated on the presumption, that this course will ultimately be adopted by Congress. It is in my opinion, decidedly the best course, the best adapted to raise and preserve the reputation of the Government in the estimation of Indians, and to secure for it their confidence and respect; the best fitted in all respects, to accomplish the great object of imparting to them the blessings of civilization and Christianity.
It is exceedingly important that every movement of the civil, military, commercial, and religious classes of the community, in reference to the improvement of the condition of the Indians, should be in unison and harmony; that there should be no interference, no collision, the one with the other. The strength and influence of each should be combined, on a well digested plan, and exerted with patience, perseverance, and with one mind, for the accomplishment of the end in view. All this is practicable; and if done, the blessing of heaven will ensure the desired success.
The Indian Trade, conducted by men of intelligence, with integrity, on correct principles, would yield a handsome profit to a Company, who should have secured to them by charter the exclusive benefits of it. Let such a Company be formed, of men of responsibility, as to monied capital; of respectability as to character; of men, especially, cordially disposed to promote the designs of the government in regard to the improvement of the condition of the Indians. Let none of a different character be admitted into the Company. Let this qualification be indispensable to membership. Let their charter be a liberal one, and provide for the establishment of branches, in sufficient number, to embrace the whole of the Indian population with which we have intercourse. Let it state particularly the obligations, and prescribe the duties, of this company, and the manner in which they shall conduct their intercourse with the Indians, and with the Military posts, and Education Families, which may be established from time to time, in and near the Indian Territories, constituting the theater of their trade. Let there always be carefully maintained a good understanding, and a friendly intercourse and co-operation, between the Traders and the Military posts, and the Education Families. Let this be particularly enjoined, as an indispensable duty. On this plan, there would be a reciprocal watch of the Military, Education Families, and Traders, over each other, to guard against, to check, or, in case of necessity, to expose, any misconduct in either. The government, on this plan, would have the best possible security of a faithful fulfillment of the respective duties of these several departments, and would find great relief from their present responsibilities to the Indians.
Let the Company who are to act under this charter, be selected and formed by the Government; be responsible to it, and removable by it for mal-practices. Let the Company appoint their own agents, and be responsible for their good behavior; and, with due regard to their charter, conduct all their affairs in their own way. For the privileges of this charter, require of the Company a reasonable and generous bonus, of a fixed sum, to be paid out of their profits, annually, into the Treasury of the U. States, to be added to the fund appropriated by Congress for the civilization of the Indians.
Among the advantages which would result from a plan of this kind, would be the following:
But to this plan it may be objected, that it tends to an unjust and injurious monopoly. If this be admitted, and the plan in consequence be rejected, I would respectfully suggest the following substitute. Let the trade be open to all men of fair character integrity and intelligence, and of friendly feelings to the plans pursuing by the government for the improvement of the Indians. Let Traders of this character, and of this character only, receive licenses, from men qualified and authorized to give them, and be required to plant themselves in some central spot within the sphere of their trade, in companies of four or five, or more, say within a quarter of a mile of each other, or nearer, in a little village of separate stores, like so many merchants. At this village, let it be required that all trade with the Indians be done; that they may enjoy all the advantages of commendable rivalry, purchasing where they can have the best goods, and on the best terms. Let there be a reasonable and liberal sum required for the licenses of these traders, to be added to the sum now consecrated to the education of Indians. At each of these trading villages, let an Education Family be established, to be useful and agreeable companions to the Traders, and to do all other things for the Indians, which like families do at other stations. An arrangement of the Indian trade in this manner, though more complex, and difficult to manage, would secure the advantages of the other, without the danger of monopoly, and in the opinion of very competent judges, would be preferable to any which can be adopted.
In case either of these plans shall be embraced by Government, there will be necessary an officer to be stationed at the seat of Government, who should have a general superintendance of all the Education establishments, so far as relates to the procuring and transmitting to the respective Education and Military stations, all the husbandry and mechanic tools and implements, provisions to be given to Indians on their visits, and in seasons of scarcity; funds, for erecting buildings for the accommodation of the Education Families, &c. which the Government will provide with the funds placed in its hands. This officer, whose title should correspond with the nature of his office, would have full employment, should the Education Families be multiplied, as they have been for the last twelve months, and as there is reason to believe they will be, in time to come.
Such are the plans for conducting the Indian trade, which I would respectfully submit to the consideration of the Government, and such the advantages which, I conceive, would result from the adoption of either.
All which is respectfully submitted by
JEDIDIAH MORSE. New-Haven, Nov. 1821.
The fourth and last article in my Instructions, is in these words
IV. " After you have collected your Materials, you will digest the whole into one body, and present it in such form, and accompany it with such reflections and suggestions, as you may deem necessary to accomplish the interesting objects, which it is intended to promote by your tour."

I know I know... relax? Right? I went to move my wine last week so I could bottle and got a small stream of bubbles and this floating from the sediment to the top. I moved the secondary back and this thing isnt settling back down. Getting a little worried about that as I've been extra careful and nothing wrong happened while racking.
Probably just part of your yeast popping off and riding some CO2 up? I dont think it could be an infection if thats what your wondering, they tend to form on the surface as i understand it, not in the trub... If your wanting to bottle it and it wont settle, and your worried about it you could probably very carefully siphon it out off the top and dump it into the sink. You shouldnt lose more than a few oz, you can use that as your FG/Taste sample
It seemed weird not settling back down, if it is yeast. However, I was thinking like you about infections forming on surfaces, so I doubted it. But after a week of just sitting there I began to question it. I'll have to try to siphon it if I can for a taster. Thanks!

Moms struggle with the expense of diapers, study says
(Read article summary)Low-income moms have trouble affording diapers for their children and, as a result, are more likely to become depressed or have anxiety, a study says.
AP Photo/Rick Bowmer
That classic diaper robbery scene from the Coen Brothers comedy "Raising Arizona" is getting less funny by the minute.
A Yale School of Medicine study in the August edition of the journal Pediatrics finds that 30 percent of women cannot afford enough diapers for their children. It further finds that those women are more in danger of depression and anxiety.
If you've ever raised an infant, you know that the hassle of diapers is no laughing matter – travel plans necessarily include and to some degree revolve around some provision for hauling, shipping, or buying piles of diapers on site, and the speed with which used diapers can fill a trash bag is disconcerting to say the least. And if you're struggling to make ends meet, the sheer expense is non-trivial: buying enough disposable diapers for an infant can take 6 percent of a single mother's annual minimum wage income of $15,080, the survey finds. Cloth diapers are no silver bullet – the time and expense involved in laundering cloth diapers is as bad or worse than their eco-hostile, disposable brethren.
This insight into the cost of diapers – seemingly minor, but actually an important window into one of the many facets of poverty – couldn't come at a more relevant time, as a recent Associated Press survey reveals that a full four–fifths of Americans wrestle with near-poverty, joblessness, and/or reliance on welfare at some point in their lives, a trend exacerbated by a collapse of domestic manufacturing jobs and a widening gap between the rich and the poor.

Showing 1 review for Clarion CMV1
Customer Review Summary for Clarion CMV1 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
August 23, 2010 | CLARION CMV1 and APX490M 4 Channel Amplifier |
3 of 4 people found the following review helpful:
Review by
M/V Sister Mary Catherine, Chesapeake Bay from Maritime Republic of Eastport
I purchased a CMV1 for a marine application aboard a 38 Deadrise workboat; I read the pros and cons before the purchase and elected to buy based on everything Clarion claimed the unit would do and the back-up information from the Sonic Electronix Customer Service Team. Everything was self installed along with a 4 Ch AMP driving two front speakers and a subwoofer all Klipsch outdoor units. The AM/FM receptions is good from an amplified car antenna, iPOD, iPhone, HTML interface is great [charges, displays, programs, etc], CDs & DVDs are just like using a component entertainment system, have not used the HD or satellite radio capability. We use the CMV1 as the DVD video source to view a Samsung 27 TV powered by a 300 amp inverter off my 12v house battery bank. The unit was pricey, but performs very well; I could not find a similar single unit component to do everything the CMV1 does. Cons: the installation diagram is vague and Clarion offers little assistance. When the battery bank is down to 12V the unit will not turn on; the face back light blinks 3 second cycles and there is no explanation as to what it was going on. After some trial and error I came up with the low voltage issue. I suggest Clarion include this in their Installation/User Manual.
We bought both the CMV1+Amp through Sonic Electronix: great customer service, answered all my queries and UPS shipping was uneventful.

ECSummit Aims to Restore Europe's Luster
At Edinburgh summit leaders face task of convincing Europeans that EC is not an uncaring superstate
ON the eve of their meeting in Edinburgh, European leaders were laying long-term plans to tackle what may be their most exacting post-summit challenge: persuading people that the European Community cares about the quality of human living.
The task of proving the EC is not set to become an uncaring superstate was made harder when Switzerland voted to reject membership in the proposed European Economic Area (EEA), a linkup of the 12-nation EC and the five-nation European Free Trade Association (EFTA), to which Switzerland already belongs.
"The Swiss had much to gain from belonging to the EEA, but they have signaled that they want to stand apart," a British diplomat said. "This will do nothing to improve the EC's image in the eyes of people who already belong to it or are being urged by their governments to join."
"The Swiss vote makes it all the more imperative that after Edinburgh the EC is shown to be interested in the lives of the people within its borders," the diplomat added.
Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Austria have applied for EC membership. The Swiss government applied in May, but the referendum result may force the government to withdraw the application.
Attitudes in Norway are veering away from joining the EC. An opinion poll conducted in early December suggested that 60 percent of the population opposes Norwegian membership.
British critics of the treaty say Switzerland's "no" vote and Norway's unenthusiastic mood indicated the EC was seriously out of touch with Europeans. Prime Minister John Major, host to the Edinburgh summit, has said repeatedly that he wants to see early enlargement of the EC. He is also a supporter of the EEA.
When he heard the result of the Swiss vote, Major redoubled efforts to ensure that at Edinburgh the Maastricht Treaty on closer European integration could be "sold" to citizens of the EC.

The obligation for biologists to commit to political advocacy
Scientists historically are a politically inactive bunch, but with research funds threatened they can no longer afford to be apathetic, argues Thomas D. Pollard, cell biologist and dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.
In an essay appearing in the Oct. 12 issue of the journal Cell, Pollard urges researchers to become more active in sharing breakthroughs in their science labs in a time of global economic problems and pressure to cut deficits.

Bass will begin 'spawning' in the spring, when the water temperature consistently stays above sixty-degrees.
When bass "bed," or find a place to mate, they stay in shallow waters and tend to stay stagnant, making it much easier for fishermen to come away with a bag limit of bass.
Smith County Game Warden Chris Green says when the weather gets consistently warmer the fishermen will be out bass fishing in full force.
Green added that it's still critical to follow any and all safety guidelines provided when bass fishing this early in the year. Green also says not to exceed the legal bag limit of bass.

Obama picks first Hispanic Supreme Court justice
In nominating Sonia Sotomayor, the president cited both her judicial experience and her compelling personal story.
President Obama made history Tuesday by nominating the first Hispanic to the US Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor, a judge on the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
If confirmed by the Senate, Judge Sotomayor would replace retiring Justice David Souter, and become the second woman to serve currently on the high court and only the third in history. Born and raised in a South Bronx housing project, she would be the first person of Puerto Rican heritage to serve on the high court.
In nominating Sotomayor, Mr. Obama cited her professional achievements and compelling personal story, calling her an "inspiring woman who I am confident will make a great justice."
"It doesn't matter where you come from, what you look like, or what challenges life throws your way. No dream is beyond reach in the United States of America," Obama said.
In a statement in the East Room ceremony announcing her nomination, Sotomayor said, "Never in my wildest childhood imaginings … did I ever dream that I would live this moment."

Can't call him great, but he's not a failure–yet. Passing health care reform is a significant accomplishment. If there is significant improvement in the unemployment figures perceptions will change. That will take about a year.
Hey dtotire, as Doug said in the column "Anyone who thinks the crippled health care bill passed by Congress and signed into law by Obama is "reform" is deranged and in need of serious mental health care."
There are some simple things that can be done to reform health care insurance costs. Based on that monstrosity of Obama and Ried's we cannot expect Congress to actually do what's needed.
Some simple steps.
I think he's doing just exactly as we should expect for someone whose biggest accomplishments prior to being elected were securing govt funds for handouts to community groups. I get the impression that he thinks that's all govt is supposed to do… secure funds from those who have them and give them to those who don't. The bad part is that now he's bankrupted us all.
Almandine, the country was both fiscally and morally "bankrupt" LONG before Mr. Obama took office!
I agree that Mr. Obama's performance in office has fallen well short of his promises. But, on the other hand, we must never forget that it's the crooks in Congress who hold the ultimate purse strings of our nation. And its CONGRESS that continues to raise the debt ceiling year after year.
The only difference between our government being "bankrupt" and having that same charge leveled at you or me is that the government can legally print more money.
If you or I tried that, it would be a felony.
Right, it's the purse strings that ordered assassinations by predator drone. It's the purse strings of Congress that allow torture to continue in the CIA and military. It's the purse strings of Congress that increased the domestic warrant-less wiretapping. And it's the purse strings of Congress that just used last Tuesday's speech to the nation and one of our greatest environmental tragedies to push the carbon tax agenda.
People, NOTHING happens in our Government unless and until the Congress ALSO chooses to fund it!
In your example, it was the Congress who funded the procurement of those drones. And they also appropriated the money for the operations and maintenance of same. The latter activity is done annually and is accomplished line item by line item. They also fund the operation of the CIA and, yes, even the FBI (who put all those illegal wiretaps in place).
Whats more, if Congress decides to pull the funding for such activity, legally, it must all come to a screeching, grinding halt. And they have done so on numerous occasions in the past.
What's more, while its called the "President's Budget", in reality, it's just a long "wish list" of things the President would LIKE to do. However, unless and until the Congress actually allocates and then appropriates enough money for him or her to do it all with, it remains just that…a Presidential "wish list".
And more than one President has been called on the carpet for spending money on things the Congress DIDN'T appropriate money for. Iran-Contra comes quickly to mind.
The truth is that , under our constitutional form of government, it's the CONGRESS where the REAL governing power lies because THEY (and they alone) control the purse strings. And without continuing appropriations to underwrite our "made-up" wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, they, too, would quickly come to a screeching, grinding halt.
The bottom line here is that the President and his minions can "flap their gums" all day long in speech after speech, "pushing", as you say, this or that "agenda". But unless and until the Congress ALSO agrees with him and actually gives him the money to do it all with, his "agenda" goes nowhere.
One of the better DT editorials I've read….. thanks, Doug. I think it's even worse than that, though. I think Obama knows exactly what he's doing and that he is a very dangerous man. I hope I'm wrong, but it ain't pretty from where I stand. I voted for him, campaigned for him and am very sorry I did because I just can't square his empty talk with ANY of his actions. I hope he starts keeping some of his pledges, but I'm not holding my breath.
And here I thought Bush was our all-time greatest national embarrassment. Well if it's one thing we Americans are good at, it's outdoing ourselves.
Adding up all of our woes, I don't believe any seated president would be very popular right now.
Had McCain won, I have to believe that at this point that he would be confined in a nursing home caused by rigors of horrendous stress of the job.
Now think Palin as president. What direction would this country be moving toward economically, financially, and socially?
In my itty bitty opinion, Obama's largest failures started by not do exactly what he said he would address first and that was the systemic problems in Washington. In other words, "Business as usual."
Instead, Obama immediately pursued the business of strengthen the protection of, and placating to, special interest (you know, those who groomed him and put him in office).
Also, Obama obviously saw the necessity of protecting the Royalty status of Washington's hand picked elitists and to preserve the systems that sustain Royal priviledges.
Curing our political and government systems must be dealt with like any disease. If the root causes aren't addressed over symptoms, then the disease will become immune to poorly implemented treatments.
The diseases ever growing in our political and government systems have increasingly become immune to their host's discontentment and impotent threats to rid our nation of the root causes of the diseases that control our nation's economic, financial, and social health.
I'm tired of opinions, I look for news, just the news. What I find is every "newspersons" opinion. Just the facts ma'am. Not your damned opinion. Make sure that you also search for the poll that suits your purpose.
How do you clean up a mess that took 8 years to create in only 2 years. I welcome any solutions to the issues that being discussed. REMEMBER…If the president fails, WE ALL FAIL!.
Leave Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran (yup, special forces are already there preparing for our invasion), close Gitmo and end institutionalized torture, stop assassinating people and everyone that just happens to be around them, end warrant-less wiretaps, decriminalize and regulate recreational drugs, quit giving money to Israel and don't defend Israel for killing and attacking Americans in international waters, enforce our immigration laws, and follow the Constitution like you swore to God to do!
It's probably a shorter list to name the campaign promises kept to date. ZERO!
Or do you think he is waiting for a second term to accomplish all those campaign promises?
The guy can't be anything but a lying psycho path. His failure isn't mine. I didn't vote for him or the old man. And I warned everyone what would come if they voted for either major party. If you vote for the lesser of two evils, you still voted for evil. Maybe next time people will vote for good, but I doubt it. Too stupid and caught up in their left/right paradigm. And now we're stuck in a fascist plutocracy that is quickly becoming a fascist military dictatorship. The writing is on the wall, will you bother to read it?
Special forces in Iran?
I do not believe you can prove this. I googled Special Forces in Iran and in the first four pages of URLs I found nothing dated since January 20, 2009 that even comes close to backing this up. I did find
which says that in May of this year Petraeus "authorized" reconnaissance to find military targets. It does NOT say that there are special forces troops there. It says they are authorized to go there.
"Teams of American special forces have been authorised to conduct spying missions intended to pave the way for a military strike on Iran in case President Obama orders one, US government sources have confirmed.
"The military units would penetrate Iranian territory to reconnoitre potential nuclear targets and make contact with friendly dissident groups, according to a secret directive written by General David Petraeus. The document's existence was disclosed for the first time yesterday."
Show us the proof that they are there, rather than just authorized to be there. If you cannot prove it retract it.
"It's probably a shorter list to name the campaign promises kept to date. ZERO!"
Of course this is just plain not true.
Politifact.org's synopsis of Obama's promises kept, broken, etc. shows:
* Promise Kept 114
* Compromise 35
* Promise Broken 19
* Stalled 82
* In the Works 252
* Not yet rated 3
For those readers who are at all interested in the truth, please do your own research and do not rely on the unsupported (and unsupportable) sweeping statements that are all to often bandied about here at CHB.
Ha. If you look at the list of promises kept, the vast majority are comparatively insignificant (to the biggies) and feature terms like expand, increase, require, and establish. Meaning, of course, that his promises to increase government spending and interference in our lives, increasing bureaucracy and feel-good "liberal" spending orgies have all been kept.
The unkept promises don't seem to include closing Gitmo, ending the Iraq war, and restoring Habeas Corpus, to name a few.
Sorry..That are being discussed.
Obama sold out before he ran for office. He got elected the same way as all politicians do, by telling people what they want to hear, A choice between pro-establishment Republicans and pro-establishment Democrats is the equivalent of no choice at all. The American Revolution did not free us from the King of England; we just traded him for a group of CEOs is all.
I'm sure glad Bush is gone!

Every day I drive past this one house in my neighborhood that has a bunch of tiny ghosts dancing in a circle on the front lawn.
It looks fantastic.
Ghosts are spooky, but kid ghosts are even creepier. Kind of like those terrifying twins from The Shining (scariest movie of all time, in my humble opinion) that keep begging Danny to come play.
Kids are creepy, man. Think of any scary movie you've ever seen. The fear factor ratchets upward whenever a kid is on the scene. If the kid is singing a nursery rhyme in their tiny voice – fuggeddaboutit.
The kid ghosts down the street got me to thinking about all the spooktacular Halloween decorations that I've seen. I don't know if more people are going all out for Halloween or if I'm just noticing it more, but it seems like some folks like to get their ghoul on even more than they enjoy decorating the halls with boughs of holly.
Here then are 20 of the coolest, cleverest, spooktacular Halloween yards around. Check 'em out, you could get an idea or two you can do in your own yard and you might not even have to go buy anything. C'mon, what fun is Halloween if we can't freak out a couple neighbor kids, amiright?

I use magnum primers for everything. I do not start at max. But I have worked up plenty of hot loads. A lot of people do that. The reason for me is I simply load too many calibers. I would have to stock just about every primer there is.
Romans 1:16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.
I simply use the MilSpec 7 1/2 for all small rifle applications. I am not allowed to discuss my use of or experience with the 1 1/2 by the mods. All I can say is that after some very bad experiences with CCI, I switched to exclusive use of Remington primers more than 30 years ago, and they've never let me down.

I'm contemplating replacing my stand alone TomTom Go with the Vario, as my Peugeot 307 has an isothermic screen that makes signal reception hard for my 4 year old TomTom Go!! I'm expecting the Vario has a newer receiver and it will work better. Plus I'll get CamerAware :-)
I've heard the recommendation for Brodit kits, but they seem to mount the device quite low down in the car; any others out there?

Anybody do much buying at public firearms auctions?http://www.mmaauction.com/auction-details.php?id=10 I had a postcard about this one today. They list a TON of what could be called "saturday night specials" and some other...budget brand pistols and revolvers, but they also had a decent-looking Russian SKS and a few nice-looking pistols. Not really sure about the "moison nagant" though; looked like it got cut down. I am casually interested in this auction but might be more interested in future auctions when i have more money than bills.
Dead Bears, the only good kind.

I buy on auction arms and gunbroker. Have bought ONE gun from an in person live auction in last 10 years. People seem to go nuts bidding at those. Saw a raggedy SMLE missing parts go for $525 at one.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
Got my last side arm at auction. Watch what you buy. Edit: last rifle also
Love auctions people buy the hype. Get carried away and spend outrageously. Internet auctions seem more tame. I've not bought a firearm via auction. All IMHO.

Weather type
Forecast summary
Regional forecast for North West England
Turning wet and windy in the north overnight. Drier elsewhere.
This Evening and Tonight:
A largely dry evening and night for many parts with clear spells. However, increasing amounts of cloud will bring heavy rain across Cumbria overnight, especially across the Fells. It will be a windy night with gales in the north. Minimum Temperature 6C.
Largely cloudy across Cumbria with the rain easing. Drier elsewhere with some sunny spells, particularly towards Cheshire where it will become very mild. Remaining windy, especially in the north. Maximum Temperature 15C.
Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:
Rain pushing southeast through the first half of Sunday will introduce brighter and cooler conditions. Becoming wet and windy on Monday after a dry start. Fine and dry by Tuesday.
Updated at: 1547 on Fri 06 Mar 2015
UK forecast for the next 5 days
Wet and windy in the northwest. Dry and breezy elsewhere.
This Evening and Tonight:
It will remain wet and windy across northwestern parts with the rain incessant across western Scotland. Mostly dry across the rest of the country with variable cloud and clear spells, although some strong gusts of wind will affect northeastern parts.
Heavy rain continuing in the northwest leading to large upland rainfall accumulations. Best of the sunshine across southeastern parts and to east of hills; where very mild. Windy in north.
Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday:
Rain will push southeast during Sunday, but becoming lighter, with cooler conditions following. Turning wet and windy on Monday, particularly in the northwest, after a chilly start. Largely fine Tuesday.
Updated at: 1507 on Fri 06 Mar 2015
Outlook for the UK over the next 6-30 days
UK Outlook for Wednesday 11 Mar 2015 to Friday 20 Mar 2015:
After a bright start on Wednesday, a frontal system, with its associated cloud and rain, will push northeastwards across the UK with strong winds affecting western parts. A drier interlude is expected to follow for a time, before another rain-bearing weather front pushes into the west later Thursday. Whilst most areas will see some rain during this period, southern and eastern parts will be more sheltered and thus remain drier. Thereafter, pressure is expected to build over, or to the east of, the UK bringing more settled and drier conditions to many. However, weather fronts will occasionally push in from the Atlantic bringing cloudier interludes with some rain, mainly to northwestern parts. Temperatures will often be near, or perhaps above average, but with cold nights still likely under clearer conditions.
UK Outlook for Saturday 21 Mar 2015 to Saturday 4 Apr 2015:
It looks probable that pressure will remain higher than average across the UK at first. This would bring generally drier than average conditions, but it is likely that there could be large amounts of cloud at times, with some occasional rain or showers, particularly across the north. There are signs that more of a northwest-southeast split will develop in late March and into early April with wetter conditions into the northwest, whilst drier conditions and higher than average pressure perhaps persist in the southeast.

Red Wings remain unconcerned about Todd Bertuzzi's 'baggage'
by George Malik on 03/03/12 at 04:52 PM ET
Comments (15)
The New York Times' Jeff Z. Klein spoke to both Red Wings forward Todd Bertuzzi and Wings GM Ken Holland about the team's decision to sign Bertuzzi to a two-year extension recently, and while Bertuzzi offered little more than a shrug when he was asked about his lasting legacy as an NHL player…
"I don't know," Bertuzzi said. "I'll answer that in two more years."
Holland was willing to speak about Bertuzzi's growth as a player and person some eight years removed from his attack on Steve Moore and the civil suit which will go to trial next fall:
"Todd, from my recollection, from what I saw, is not that type of a player that happened in that incident," Detroit General Manager Ken Holland said. "I think that we all deserve a second chance."
Holland admits to Klein that the Wings' management sat down and questions whether they were willing to take on a player with as much baggage as Bertuzzi possesses the first time they acquired him back in 2007, but that wasn't the case when Bertuzzi re-signed in 2009. In Detroit, he's just "Bert":

Red Wings off-day news: Bertuzzi still 'questionable' for Sunday, Cleary OK
by George Malik on 03/03/12 at 04:18 PM ET
Comments (6)
Updated 6x with Filppula-Zetterberg-Hudler line talk at 6:43 PM: Given the Red Wings' already shorthanded status, given the, "Rut roh, Raggy" level of bad news of late (see the Brad Stuart stuff from earlier this morning) and given that the Wings still managed to defeat the Minnesota Wild 6-0 on Friday night, MLive's Ansar Khan fired off a Twitter update which more or less forces one to wait and hope for better news once Khan and NHL.com's Brian Hedger wandered into the post-practice media scrum at the Joe (both the Wings and Hawks practiced at City Sports Arena due to a Black Keys concert at the Joe tonight, but the Wings bus back to the Joe, usually in their gear, after said practice two miles east of the Joe)...
Bertuzzi and Cleary not skating today for Wings, in addition to Datsyuk and Lidstrom.

Is Brad Stuart's potential departure the reason the Red Wings acquired Kyle Quincey? Probably so

Cue the, "Oh, s***" alert: Expressen's Linus Hugosson let me know via Twitter that he spoke to Red Wings director of European scouting Hakan Andersson recently, and Andersson told Hugosson that Brad Stuart is definitely leaving the Wings this summer.
As it's 7 AM as I'm writing this and I haven't slept since a mid-afternoon nap on Friday, here's an incredibly rough translation of his article:

On the 'Hockey Is for Everyone' ethic and Jim Paek's status as a trailblazer
by George Malik on 03/03/12 at 08:33 AM ET
Comments (7)
Despite having hockey in my DNA thanks to my mom's side of the family, I was quite the, "Sports are barbaric!" nerd until a middle school buddy whose Korean parents barely spoke English told me I needed to watch a Red Wings who'd defected from the rapidly-collapsing Soviet Union way back in 1991, and as my dad (who'd tried to convince me to play football, baseball and basketball before giving up and agreeing with my mother that I would play soccer whether I liked it or not at 7 years of age) didn't know all that much about playing hockey, my mother and my friend Joe helped me learn how to play street hockey.
Between those details and the fact that I've followed a team which embraced Russians, Swedes, Czechs, Slovaks and anybody else who could play hockey, even when the Russian 5's presence yielded derisive chants of, "USA, USA!" from Blues fans and montages of the Soviet flag and the Russian national anthem when the Wings played on Hockey Night in Canada in the mid-90's, I've never understood the concept that hockey is anything less than, as the NHL's Diversity program suggests, "For Everyone," and the concept that certain ethnic or racial groups or women "don't belong" in American or Canadian hockey plan old pisses me off.
So it's very interesting to read Grand Rapids Griffins coach Jim Paek, who was my pal Joe's favorite player as the first Korean-born NHL'er and a 2-time Stanley Cup winner with the Penguins, reflect upon playing for Bob Johnson and Scotty Bowman, plying his trade for the IHL's Muskegon Lumberjacks and reflecting upon his legacy while speaking to the Hamilton Spectator's Steve Milton:

Red Wings-Wild wrap-up and overnight report: despite Bertuzzi's injury, Wings take strides forward
by George Malik on 03/03/12 at 08:05 AM ET
Comments (8)
The Detroit Red Wings will probably have to play against the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday without the services of Todd Bertuzzi, who sounds "questionable" at best after slightly pulling his groin during the Red Wings' 6-0 win over the Minnesota Wild on Friday night, but as I suggested in the "quick take," the Red Wings displayed so much jam, grit, patience, poise and even swagger during what was a pretty darn tightly-contested game until Darren Helm gave the wings a 3-0 lead 37 minutes into the game, and especially until Valtteri Filppula gave the Wings a commanding 4-0 lead 3:25 from the end of the second perio…
That it's hard for the subjective wings fan in me to feel anything less than nearly absurdly optimistic about the Wings' ability to overcome the absences of Pavel Datsyuk (knee, out for about another week), Lidstrom (ankle, out till at least Tuesday) and Jonathan Ericsson (wrist, out for about a month) because the Wings built upon their 5-2 victory over Columbus in terms of both style and substance, spending just as much time out-working the Wild as the Wings did eventually out-classing their opponent.

Red Wings-Wild quick take: Datsyuk/Lidstrom-less Wings learn how to walk
by George Malik on 03/03/12 at 12:48 AM ET
Comments (13)
Update: Regarding Todd Bertuzzi's "lower-body injury," per MLive's Ansar Khan:
Bertuzzi is day to day with tender groin, Holland said. Questionable for Sunday's game.
Holland on Bertuzzi: "He's day-to-day, just a tender groin. we're not taking any chances. See how he feels tomorrow.''
More Holland on Bertuzzi: "I'd say questionable for Sunday. Nothing serious. This time of year we want to be very cautious.''
The Detroit Red Wings' 6-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild was both a case of a smart, veteran Wings team pouncing upon an opponent that got into town very, very late and a Red Wings team that started the game sans Nicklas Lidstrom (ankle), Pavel Datsyuk (knee) and Jonathan Ericsson's (wrist) services, and played the 3rd period without Todd Bertuzzi (Wings coach Mike Babcock wouldn't elaborate on his "lower-body injury" but to say to HSJ that he'd be reevaluated)...
Building upon their very ugly 5-2 win over Columbus on Monday by playing a gritty, spirited and hard-working game that was worthy of a much more desperate opponent, and by playing the kind of high-skill, up-tempo game that the slightly short-staffed Wings must, must, must embrace to keep winning when Chicago comes to town on Sunday.
To some extent, the younger, pluckier Wings did much more than perform superbly individually and collectively: they learned how to walk, if you will, without their two most important players not named Jimmy Howard in Lidstrom and Datsyuk, and taking the Wild out with such poise and panache is nothing less than fantastic for the team's confidence going forward.

Red Wings-Wild game-day updates: Quincey's in for Detroit, Lidstrom concerned about bone bruise

Updated 8x at 6:56 PM: As the Detroit Red Wings prepare to face off against the Minnesota Wild tonight (7:30 PM EST, FSD/FS North/97.1 FM), there's finally good news on the injury front for Detroit, per MLive's Ansar Khan:
Wings skating with these defense pairs: kronwall-stuart, quincey-white, smith-kindl. Janik is 7th D.
Wings skating with these lines: 51-40-26, 11-8-44, 20-43-93, 96-48-39.
Quincey playing for Wings tonight. Janik reassigned to Grand Rapids.

Red Wings-Wild set-up and overnight report: shorthanded Wings need to 'get on a roll'
by George Malik on 03/02/12 at 06:33 AM ET
Comments (5)
Updated 2x with an interesting Ken Daniels tidbit at 5:21 AM: The Detroit Red Wings face off against the Minnesota Wild tonight (7:30 PM EST, FSD/FS North/97.1 FM) without the services of their two most important players not named Jimmy Howard in Pavel Datsyuk (knee, probably still a week out), Nicklas Lidstrom, who's been ruled out of this weekend's games with a bone bruise in his left ankle/foot, and a support player in Jonathan Ericsson (out for a month with a broken wrist), but probable returnee Kyle Quincey (groin, skated on Thursday) and the Wings need rather desperately to kick off a stretch of three games in five nights by bulding upon their three game losing streak-busting win over Columbus and getting on something of a roll.
The Vancouver Canucks did the Wings a favor by defeating the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night, affording the Wings the opportunity to remain tied with the Blues for first in the Central Division standings while only dropping 3 points behind the Canucks, but if the Wings do win the Central, they could very well face the 12th-place Wild, who lost goaltender Nicklas Backstrom's services but rallied from a 4-1 3rd period deficit to tie the Montreal Canadiens and ultimately lose 5-4 in a shootout.

Per the Windsor Star's Dave Waddell, I'm sure that Coach's Corner will involve some anti-Red Wings and anti-Maple Leafs talk after Wings GM Ken Holland and former Leafs president Richard Peddie offered the following takes on banning fighting in developmental programs, perhaps all the way up to the CHL level at some point:
"I'd love to see it at the lower levels," Holland said. "Are we ready for no fighting in the NHL? I don't think so. I think the game is evolving at the National Hockey League level. You get into the playoffs and there's hardly any fighting. I think it's great there's no fighting in youth leagues. It's a good thing."
Former president and CEO of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment Richard Peddie also supports a ban on fighting outside of professional hockey.
"I don't disagree with what they're doing at the junior levels on the whole fighting side," Peddie said. "I know there are lots of pros and cons. I've heard it debated at the (NHL board of) governors' meetings. There are things very unique in hockey versus basketball and baseball. I'm really up in the air at the pro level, but at the junior level, I'd have no problem with it whatsoever."

Waddell discusses Red Wings GM Ken Holland's managerial philosophies
by George Malik on 03/01/12 at 10:23 PM ET
Comments (3)
As noted in the off-day post, Red Wings GM Ken Holland gave an address to Windsor, Ontario's Odette School of Business this morning, and in addition to posting a short video of Holland's comments, the Windsor Star's Dave Waddell penned a fantastic article which both explains Holland's philosophies regarding player development…
"Very conservative, very slow, patience, patience, patience," said Holland, explaining his managerial philosophy. "It's better to get someone there (NHL) one year late, rather than two years too early. When you do that, it's a mistake. It (success) is like a ladder. You're meticulously adding one piece at a time. There's no other way."
His belief that strong sports teams should be built and maintained by strong management teams…

Dawson's integral
This functionality does not run in MATLAB.
dawson(x) represents Dawson's integral, which is defined as .
dawson(x) returns special values for x = 0 and . For all other symbolic values of x, unevaluated function calls are returned. Cf. Example 1.
When called with floating-point arguments, this function is sensitive to the environment variable DIGITS which determines the numerical working precision.
For the following arguments, special values are returned:
dawson(0), dawson(infinity), dawson(-infinity)
For other symbolic arguments, a symbolic call is returned:
dawson(1), dawson(5+I)
Floating point values are returned for floating-point arguments:
dawson(0.0), dawson(1.0), dawson(-3.4 + 0.2*I)
The functions diff, float, limit, and series handle expressions involving the dawson function:
diff(dawson(x^2), x), float(dawson(7))
limit(x*dawson(x), x = infinity)
series(dawson(x), x = infinity, 4)
