The change was done because, > > with device-mapper based RW mechanism, one has to compress a single file > > (root.ext2), not a full filesystem tree, and both zisofs and squashfs > > are equally efficient for that - but zisofs is simpler to set up. > > Why is this so? Because device-mapper needs a single block device (say, loop), and loop needs a single file, not a filesystem, to be attached to. > There isn't much documentation on device-mapper available.. I used this article when implementing a LiveCD: http://linuxgazette.net/114/kapil.html > Why couldn't a squashfs file be used as the first loop device? A squashfs file can be loop-mounted and produces a filesystem (i.e., a whole tree). Device-mapper expects a block device, not a filesystem, as its input. So yes, you can produce a squashfs file containing a filesystem with a single root.ext2 file that you can use for a loop. Thus, you are proposing this: isofs -(mount)-> compressed.sqfs -(loop)-(mount)-> root.ext2 -(loop)-> device-mapper while the CD uses this simpler setup: zisofs -(mount)-> root.ext2 -(loop)-> device-mapper Note no mount between root.ext2 and device-mapper in both cases, while squashfs produces usable compression only when loop-mounted. > 2) How did you come up with the overhead calculated? > I guess it's used to have a little bigger writable area than the original even if there's less ram than the livecd size available, correct me if I'm wrong.. I made a device mapper snapshot setup with two loops over sparse files, with the second file being too large, and filled the resulting device with junk. Then I looked how much of the second file was actually filled with data. This way, I can guarantee that the snapshot won't go offline even if a user erases everything from the LiveCD filesystem and fills the resulting empty filesystem with completely different data. Of course, this is overkill. If you create the second file with only 256 MB size, the snapshot won't go offline until the user actually writes a bit less than 256 MB. And yes, it is possible to fill the RAM completely by creating files, if the computer has less than 1.5 GB of RAM. > 3) What's the minimum amount of RAM needed to boot the LFS livecd? By my tries in qemu it's somewhere between 20 and 30mb, as 22 didn't boot and 30 booted. Yes, this is a reasonable estimation. > Is this because the > initramfs file is 15mb uncompressed? Yes. -- Alexander E. Patrakov

At GO3, an Australian gaming conference of import (that's fancy speak for importance, not goods entering a country), Hideo Kojima had a little speech planned out where he discussed "game technology evolution" and proceeded through the Metal Gear series up to MGS4's current progress. We'll get to that.
Before we go there, though, Kojima offered up an apology for the jungle in Snake Eater: "looks more like your backyard than a jungle," he joked, then apologized to the audience in Japanese for not letting koalas be an edible food source in the game. Would koalas even taste good? They'd probably taste like what they eat -- eucalyptus leaves. Anyway, on to MGS4 not-so-news.
In line with the rest of his speech on innovating gameplay, he and his team knew that they "exhausted the concept of the space, so why not create a situation, rather then a place where Snake had to sneak in" and decided on a battlezone. He explained the possibilities of the battlefield setting -- how there are two sides fighting and one isn't necessarily Snake's enemy, moral ambiguities, et cetera. Then he showed the latest, but already viewed by many, trailer for the game. So, nothing new on the game, but it's nice to read about how Kojima has evolved the franchise across time.
[update: changed the koala's dietary properties to eucalyptus leaves...]

The Gitzo GK1582OT Ocean Traveler 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Kit is a tripod with almost no limitations: it's designed for use in the most destructive conditions for tripods--salt water, dust, mud, sand. Made with 6x carbon fiber legs, all of the fittings are constructed from uncoated stainless steel using an advanced surface treatment developed for surgical equipment that completely closes any porosity at a microscopic level, eliminating any foothold for corrosive elements.
A refinement of the G-Lock leg locking system, Ocean Lock, sets new standards for protecting tripod legs. Ocean Lock adds special inserts at both ends of each leg section, which greatly minimize the amount of salt water, dust, mud, etc. that can enter the legs and locking mechanisms. The upper stainless steel leg ends have a funnel-like hole which allows the small amount of liquid that might have entered to be emptied out efficiently.
The dedicated ball head that's included is made from stainless steel and can be disassembled to clean and dry all of the interior parts. Special grease is included for lubricating the head and leg locking mechanisms after cleaning.
As a Traveler, this tripod's large expansion/contraction ratio makes it the ideal choice for, well, travelers. The top of the Traveler is designed to allow the leg segments to fold 180°, towards the direction that's away from the ground when the tripod is in use. This allows the normal crown section of a tripod to be within the collapsed leg segments' space, affording the Ocean Traveler its impressive 17.1" folded length, and protecting the head when it's not in use.
This is a Gitzo 6x carbon fiber model, made from their own ultra-thin carbon fiber strands. Carbon fiber has a tendency to absorb vibrations rather than transmitting them to the camera it supports, much like a wooden tripod would.
- Ocean Lock
- The Ocean-Lock is a special version of Gitzo G-Lock, maintaining the same outstanding locking performances. Thanks to two special seals derived from the automation industry, it minimizes the amount of water and debris that may enter tubes and locking mechanisms. The Ocean-Lock is not 100% waterproof, however it dramatically enhances the capacity of the tripod to withstand extreme environments.
- Ground Level Set
- This feature allows you to remove the center column to save weight and get the camera closer to the ground. It uses existing components: the upper disc with reversible 1/4" - 3/8" bolt and the column hook assembly. Remove the column and fix the disk directly to the upper casting using the column hook. No tools needed.
- Rapid Column
- The center column locking collar above the tripod shoulder makes it easier to adjust the column quickly. This Series 1 tripod is built with an anti-rotation grooved center column for improved stability.
- Reversible Column
- The rapid column can easily be inverted for an alternative shooting angle or low level macro work.
- Hook
- This built-in accessory allows you to hang a stabilizing weight (e.g. a full camera bag or a sand/water bag) from the bottom of the tripod center column. Useful with long, heavy lenses, on uneven ground or in windy conditions.
- Anti Leg Rotation
- The Anti Leg Rotation (ALR) system allows the tripod to be opened in less than 15 seconds. Simply loosen all the twist locks on each leg at the same time, then pull the leg down and tighten the locks individually.
- Two Leg Angles
- This feature allows you to independently position the tripod legs in two positions.
- A dedicated stainless steel ballhead is included which can be easily disassembled to clean out any sand, salt, dust, etc. that may become trapped in the mechanism. Special grease is included to lubricate the head and leg locking mechanisms.
- Unique leg design allows an expansion ratio that's rare for a truly rigid tripod
- Legs assembled from Gitzo-specific "6x" ultra-strong and super-thin (0.007mm) carbon fiber strands
- Maximum upper leg segment diameter of 24mm; appropriate for SLR cameras and 135mm telephoto lenses
- Folds down to just 17.1"

Wet weather and new track surface plays havoc with teams and riders
The final Moto GP race weekend of 2012 got underway on a wet Circuit de la Comunitat Valenciana Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain today and the slippery conditions saw some unsuspecting names at the top of the timing sheets. The afternoon's FP2 session was worse than FP1 this morning and while Nicky Hayden came out on top in FP1, it was the CRT Power Electronics Aspar machine of Randy de Puniet who rose to the top this afternoon.
Riders will be hoping for much better weather in tomorrow morning's FP3 session and the qualifying session in the afternoon but with weather forecast not certain of dry weather, most of the teams will be planning a wet race strategy for Sunday's GP Generali de la Comunitat Valenciana. The weather didn't seem to bother De Puniet this afternoon though with the Frenchman recording a fastest time of 1m 36.965s with the San Carlo Honda Gresini CRT of Michele Pirro in second with a best lap time of 1m 37.084s and Hayden in third (1m 37.389s).
Karel Abraham set the fourth fastest time this afternoon (1m 37.782s) on his Cardion AB Motoracing Ducati GP12 while Valentino Rossi sits in 5th on the timing sheets in this, his last race weekend as a factory Ducati rider with the seven times MotoGP World Champion setting a best time of 1m 38.115s. Danilo Petrucci set the 6th fastest time this afternoon for the Cam IodaRacing team (1m 38.300s) with Ivan Silva 7th for the Avintia Blusens (1m 38.304s).
Roberto Rolfo ended day one in 8th on the Speed Master machine with a best time of 1m 38.905s while Paul Bird Motorsport rider James Ellison sits in 9th with a fastest lap of 1m 39.837s. Hiroshi Aoyama has been drafted in from World Superbikes to fill in on the Avintia Blusens seat currently vacated by Columbian injured rider Yonny Hernandez and Aoyama managed the 10th best time of 1m 40.497s. Claudio Corti finished day one in 11th for the Avintia Blusens team with a best lap of 1m 42.993s.
Finishing in 12th position on day one was uncharacteristically Cal Crutchlow on his Monster Yamaha Tech 3 bike with a best lap of 1m 44.384s while San Carlo Honda Gresini's Alvaro Bautista set the 13th best lap of 1m 44.564s. Katsuyuki Nakasuga will campaign the final race of this year instead of the injured Ben Spies who is leaving the Japanese outfit this year and Nakasuga set the 14th best time of 1m 45.180s. Aleix Espargaro set the 15th best lap of 1m 45.426s for the Power Electronics Aspar team with Hector Barbera setting a best time of 1m 45.678s for Pramac Racing.
Colin Edwards (NGM Forward Racing) was the final rider to set a time (2m 6.873s) this afternoon with Repsol Honda factory teammates Dani Pedrosa and Casey Stoner opting not to go out on track this afternoon as well as the newly-crowned MotoGP Champion for 2012 Jorge Lorenzo (Yamaha Factory Racing). Both LCR Honda rider Stefan Bradl and Monster Yamaha Tech 3's Andrea Dovisioso also opted not to go on track this afternoon.

"Amy leans more toward the purist modernist side, Todd is a little more rustic countryside, so the store is the perfect marriage"
Chances are you've already heard about design-duo Amy Kehoe and Todd Nickey and their buzz-worthy LA decor shop Nickey Kehoe, but have you seen their Instagram? Their West Hollywood shop, just like their Insta account, is filled with everything from Indian batik textiles to Peruvian throws and French antiques. Anything goes in this decorator's heaven.
The pair divide their time between their residential and commercial projects, and scour the world's flea markets, from California to Italy, to collect the best antique and vintage finds for their shop. Their taste, which falls somewhere between modern and rustic, is reflected in their quintessentially Californian aesthetic. Until I make my way to LA to visit the shop in person, I will live vicariously through their colorful Instagram (or their One Kings Lane sale, which ends tonight)!

Germany heightens security on 'concrete indications' of terror attack
(Read article summary)'We have cause for concern, but no reason for hysteria,' German Interior Minister Thomas de Maizière said today, adding that the tip-off came from a 'foreign partner,' reportedly the US.
Michael Sohn/AP
• A summary of global reports on security issues.
Germany is increasing security throughout the country, particularly in airports and train stations, on the basis of "concrete indications of a series of attacks planned for the end of November," Interior Minister Thomas de Maizière said today.
Dr. Maizière told citizens to be ready for a "visible police presence," which Agence France-Presse reported was already apparent today as "machine gun-toting police patrolled German stations and airports ... there could also be tighter checks on the external borders of the European Schengen visa-free travel zone."
The tip-off about the potential attack came from a "foreign partner" and comes two weeks after Saudi Arabia helped Western authorities foil a bombing attempt by Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). The Yemen-based group concealed bombs inside computer-printer ink cartridges destined for Chicago synagogues and shipped in FedEx and UPS planes. The bombs were discovered in Britain and Dubai on Oct. 29. One of the planes passed through Germany's international airport on Cologne with the lethal cargo undetected.

It seems I have a couple of issues that I always run into when using Nook for Web. I would rather use a Nook app on my windows phone 8, but that is a different story. There are times when I open a book to read from my library on the web and the system won't recognize that I own the book, and will just give me a preview. This has happened multiple times, and can get a bit annoying.
When it does work, I'm happy. It also actually remembers the last page I was one from my Simple Nook (Glow) at home. Very nice. However, my Nook at home never remembers what page I was on from the web. Never. Note that the Nook at home is connected to WiFi, so that can't be the issue. After some test scenarios, I deteremined that the web seems to only remember my last page when I 'back' out of the webpage. Without backing out, even Nook for Web won't remember the last page. Therefore, I make that my common practice now (though it would be nice if it always remembered the last page I viewed). But even doing this, the Simple Nook has never altered the page, or let me know that another device has changed my page. Am I doing something wrong? Is there some trick I need to provide to get this to work the way I think it should?

The architecture of the chromatin fiber, which determines DNA accessibility for transcription and other template-directed biological processes, remains unknown. Here we investigate the internal organization of the 30-nm chromatin fiber, combining Monte Carlo simulations of nucleosome chain folding with EM-assisted nucleosome interaction capture (EMANIC). We show that at physiological concentrations of monovalent ions, linker histones lead to a tight 2-start zigzag dominated by interactions between alternate nucleosomes (i +/- 2) and sealed by histone N-tails. Divalent ions further compact the fiber by promoting bending in some linker DNAs and hence raising sequential nucleosome interactions (i +/- 1). Remarkably, both straight and bent linker DNA conformations are retained in the fully compact chromatin fiber as inferred from both EMANIC and modeling. This conformational variability is energetically favorable as it helps accommodate DNA crossings within the fiber axis. Our results thus show that the 2-start zigzag topology and the type of linker DNA bending that defines solenoid models may be simultaneously present in a structurally heteromorphic chromatin fiber with uniform 30 nm diameter. Our data also suggest that dynamic linker DNA bending by linker histones and divalent cations in vivo may mediate the transition between tight nucleosome packing within discrete 30-nm fibers and self-associated higher-order chromosomal forms.

"I chose the shimmer paper and the purple, teal and green color for the sample. I absolutely loved it because those are my colors. I'm having a hard time deciding between this one and another one."
"This invitation is perfect! Our families were blown away by the quality and they absolutely loved the design. It's perfect for our winter wedding. We love that the design is simple, but whimsical while not being over the top."
"we chose the navy design. i was very impressed with the quality of paper, it was just thick enough to feel like a special invitation. the printing was perfect. my fiance was very particular with the wording at the bottom, we changed to "drinks, dinner, and dancing to follow" and he insisted on the oxford comma, and they edited it for us and they turned out perfect. very pleased with the quick delivery."
"I love this suite! It matches well with my winter themed wedding! I will say that I had to have my invites reprinted because on the first batch the main words were blurry. Once I told them about it, customer care sent me a new suite and the words were much better, crisp lining. Everything was beautiful and shipping was fast. The only downside is that the paper wasn't as textured as the sample I received (one of the main reasons I like the suite in the first place). The paper seemed flat, almost no texture at all :( but other than that the invite is beautiful."
"These invitations are beautiful! So elegant, great quality and quick turn around time. I received the proof within 48 hours and the invites shipped way quicker than expected. All of my requests for personalizing the text were done quickly and beautifully. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!"

Why Cirrus Logic (CRUS) Stock Is Gaining Today
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Cirrus Logic (CRUS - Get Report) was gaining 6.9% to $20.56 follows Apple's (AAPL) quarterly results and in anticipation of its report.
Cirrus Logic produces chips for the iPhone and iPad mini for Apple. In its second-quarter results Apple said it sold 43.7 million iPhones in the quarter, which helped boost the chipmaker's stock. More than 80% of Cirrus Logic's revenue comes from Apple.
Cirrus Logic is scheduled to announce its quarterly results after the bell Thursday.

SELL NOW: If you own any of the 900 stocks that TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified as a 'Sell'...you could potentially lose EVERYTHING in the next 6-12 months. Learn more. TheStreet Ratings team rates CIRRUS LOGIC INC as a Hold with a ratings score of C+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate CIRRUS LOGIC INC (CRUS) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed -- some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, attractive valuation levels and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, weak operating cash flow and a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- CRUS has no debt to speak of therefore resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of zero, which we consider to be a relatively favorable sign. Along with this, the company maintains a quick ratio of 4.33, which clearly demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
- CIRRUS LOGIC INC's earnings per share declined by 36.4% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, CIRRUS LOGIC INC increased its bottom line by earning $1.99 versus $1.30 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.61 versus $1.99).
- The share price of CIRRUS LOGIC INC has not done very well: it is down 12.76% and has underperformed the S&P 500, in part reflecting the company's sharply declining earnings per share when compared to the year-earlier quarter. The fact that the stock is now selling for less than others in its industry in relation to its current earnings is not reason enough to justify a buy rating at this time.
- The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment industry. The net income has significantly decreased by 38.8% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from $67.86 million to $41.50 million.

Aegion Corporation Energy & Mining Joint Venture Awarded Multiple Contracts In The Middle East Valued At Over $21 Million (USD)
Aegion Corporation (Nasdaq Global Select Market: AEGN) today announced that United Special Technical Services, LLC ("USTS"), a joint venture between United Pipeline Systems, Inc., a subsidiary of Aegion ("United"), and Special Technical Services LLC ("STS") of Oman, was recently awarded multiple projects with a combined value of over $21 million (USD). These projects are located in Kuwait, Algeria, Bahrain and Oman. United owns a 51 percent interest and STS owns a 49 percent interest in the joint venture.
In Kuwait, USTS will supply and install United's proprietary Tite Liner ® system in over 230 miles of 4-inch to 30-inch diameter water injection pipelines. Work on this project is expected to begin in early 2013 and to be completed within 18 months.
The Algeria contract requires USTS to design and install a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) liner in nearly 10 miles of 8-inch diameter water disposal pipelines. This project will be the first time the Tite Liner ® system has been installed in Algeria.
The project in Bahrain will require USTS to perform the fusion and installation of approximately 40 miles of HDPE ring main headers to be used for water distribution throughout an oilfield.
The contracts in Oman involve the supply and installation of eight miles of HDPE liners in water injection and process pipelines ranging from 12-inches to 24-inches in diameter. The projects in Algeria, Bahrain and Oman are expected to be completed by June 2013. Dorwin Hawn, Aegion's Senior Vice President, Energy & Mining, said, "We are pleased to have been awarded these contracts in the Middle East. USTS positions United and Aegion's Energy & Mining group to be fully prepared to capture opportunities in this region and to continue growing our footprint in this important region. We are confident we will continue to see increased activity in the Middle East."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Stillbirth is delivery of a dead fetus at > 20 wk gestation. Maternal and fetal testing is done to determine the cause. Management is as for routine care after live delivery.
Fetal death during late pregnancy may have maternal, placental, or fetal anatomic or genetic causes (see Table 3: Common Causes of Stillbirth). Overall, the most common cause is
Table 3
Diabetes mellitus if uncontrolled
Hereditary thrombotic disorders
Preeclampsia or eclampsia
Substance abuse
Abruptio placentae
Fetomaternal hemorrhage
Twin-twin transfusion
Umbilical cord accidents (eg, prolapse, knots)
Uteroplacental vascular insufficiency
Vasa previa
Alloimmune thrombocytopenia
Chromosomal abnormalities
Fetal alloimmune or inherited anemia
Major congenital malformations (eg, of the heart or brain)
Nonimmune hydrops fetalis
Single-gene disorders
If a fetus dies during late pregnancy or near term but remains in the uterus for weeks, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) may occur.
Tests to determine cause include the following:
Often, cause cannot be determined.
Uterine evacuation may have spontaneously occurred. If not, evacuation should be done using drugs (eg, oxytocin Some Brand Names PITOCIN Click for Drug Monograph ) or a surgical procedure (eg, dilation and evacuation [D & E], preceded by preabortion osmotic dilators to prepare the cervix, with or without misoprostol Some Brand Names CYTOTEC Click for Drug Monograph ). Postdelivery management is similar to that for live birth.
If DIC develops, coagulopathy should be promptly and aggressively managed by replacing blood or blood products as needed.
After the products of conception are expelled, curettage may be needed to remove any retained placental fragments. Fragments are more likely to remain when stillbirth occurs very early in the pregnancy.
Parents typically feel significant grief and require emotional support and sometimes require formal counseling. Risks with future pregnancies, which are related to the presumed cause, should be discussed with patients.

Even if you are not explicitly asked to graph a hyperbola, it's always a good idea to draw a rough sketch to determine whether your major axis will be vertical or horizontal and we can find the center. Here, we plot the foci and vertices to find a horizontal axis, and also find the values of "a" and "c." From there, we can use the relation a^2 + b^2 = c^2 to solve for b^2. Since the major axis is horizontal, the x^2 binomial will be above the a^2, and the y^2 binomial will be above b^2.

The paper has two goals. First, it defends one type of subjectivist account of reasons for actions—deliberative accounts—against the criticism that they commit the conditional fallacy. Second, it attempts to show that another type of subjectivist account of practical reasons that has been gaining popularity—ideal advisor accounts—are liable to commit a closely related error. Further, I argue that ideal advisor accounts can avoid the error only by accepting the fundamental theoretical motivation behind deliberative accounts. I conclude that ideal advisor accounts represent neither a substantial departure from, nor a substantial improvement upon, deliberative accounts.

Input of two kinds is required to improve policy responses to the flow of foreign-born students and researchers to the United States. The first kind of input is more and better data specifically designed to answer key analytic questions about the function of the labor market for the S&E workforce. The second kind is the results of rigorous labor-market analyses that can be used to help understand the nation's needs for S&E workers, address the repeated claims of shortages of scientists and engineers, develop strategies that attract high ability US students to S&E, and assess the costs and benefits of such strategies.20
What can be said is this: there are both benefits and costs to having international graduate students and postdoctoral scholars in the United States. The benefits include increasing the S&E talent pool in the United States, enhancing and diversifying the academic community, lowering the cost of doing research, and enhanced international research collaborations. In short, talented graduate students and postdoctoral scholars constitute a critical input for our knowledge-driven economy. At the same time, having such an open supply of talent has significant costs. It affects job opportunities for all students. Restrictions on international travel or exchange can rapidly affect US research capabilities. International collaborations may lead to enhanced international competition.
At present, the strategy of the United States is to draw heavily on and profit from the international talent pool. However, increased security regulations are restricting entry of prospective international students and scholars and restricting the fields in which they may study. Other nations are fortifying their S&E infrastructure and competing for the best students and scholars. It is in this context that the United States needs to craft policies to maintain its current quality and effectiveness in S&E, including encouraging the interest of domestic S&E students, at the same time that it minimizes the barriers to mobility for international students. Given the lack of control over exogenous events, policies should be crafted to ensure that S&E institutions and the labor force develop enhanced flexibility to respond quickly to changing conditions.

Okay, so alot of my friends have been waiting on my verdict about a certain topic for quite awhile now. I figured now would be the most appropriate time to relate on the topic, albeit I'm a little behind, but here we go.
It's no secret that I'm a big James Bond fan, Connery being my favorite, so what do I think of Daniel Craig and Casino Royale? I'll start by saying that I won't even make mention of how he just doesn't look like James Bond, at all, because he doesn't.
...hmmm, perhaps that was a little too much unmention, but I digress.
I will say, that he makes for a fantastic action star. He delivers the high octane action of Pierce Brosnan with the close quarters brutality of Sean Connery, both qualities I enjoy. However, his delivery was cold, almost robotic. I'm not only talking about his dialog, I'm actually even referring to his fighting, and his running, and his jumping, and even his dramatic pauses. At times, I compared him to Robert Patrick's T-1000 in Terminator 2. I mean, it's impressive that his main mode of transportation in the movie is his legs, but DAMN, he never looks panicked or out of breath or... human, really.
Beyond Daniel Craig's performance, I really liked the movie. It did feel like a Bond film... at times. I'll admit that the majority of it was very suspenseful, like a Connery film, and there was enough over-the-top action to make the entirety mostly like a Brosnan film. That should be enough, right? Take the best parts of the best Bond films and jam them together to make a super Bond film. But there's something missing. I know alot of people are actually happy about this, but it's not Bond without the tongue-in-cheek attitude. Sure there were small quips that made reference to the older Bond films, and there were some rare moments of original humor, but certainly not enough.
Yeah, yeah, this is supposed to be a NEW Bond for the 21st century, and there were enough cellphones and satellites to make Q look like a toymaker, but it ceases to be James Bond if your actor is stone cold and your script is jokeless. By itself, it was a good movie, but it was not completely a Bond movie. Almost, I think. Perhaps Quantum of Solace will make up for it, although I have my doubts as it's supposedly going to be a revenge story (and we really don't need another "Timothy Dalton"), but perhaps he'll be more of a James Bond the second time around as he's had more time to adjust.
Okay, I'm done bashing it. I think. I will give it this: it was more entertaining then the last few Brosnan movies and it was certainly better than some of the Moore ones. Standing alone it was an entertaining action/suspense film with many twists and some great fight scenes. The music was awesome and the opening credits were the best I've seen in a Bond movie (maybe the lack of female silhouettes is actually a good thing?). The character of Vesper Lynd was the real savior of the film for me, as she was classy (which is different for a Bond Girl) and she certainly gave the movie it's humanity, though it was especially painful to see Bond legitimately in love (though not as much as when he was in love in OHMSS! Ugh!).
So to sum it all up, it was a fun watch. It was a great spy movie, lots of action and intrigue. Was it a "Bond film"? Yeah...ish. It doesn't match all of the criteria I would balance against it, but it was very close. Too serious. Daniel Craig = stone cold. Looking forward to QoS, though I don't have high hopes.
Oh, and am I the only one who finds it odd that Judy Dench is still M?
...just sayin'.

Khloe revealed that her niece, North's personality is already so dominant and distinct! The proud auntie said in a new interview with 'Cosmopolitan UK,' that she has 'no doubt' North will be strong and confident — just like her parents, Kim and Kanye!
Khloe Kardashian is so impressed that her 6-month-old niece North West is already developing the "strongest" personality traits of her parents Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. She can already see that North is going to have quite a dominant personality, and she's even "nervous" about how it will manifest when she's older!
Khloe Kardashian: North West's Personality 'Strong' & 'Confident' Like Kanye's
Khloe gushed that Kanye's parenting is having a direct effect on Nori's development. "Kanye is such an awesome dad, and he's so opinionated and passionate," Khloe, 29, told Cosmopolitan UK.
"North is only five-and-a-half months old but you can see she has opinions and a strong personality already," Khloe explained of Kanye's influence.
"I'm kind of nervous to see what she's like when she's older," Khloe admitted of her fears of having another strong personality in the family. "But I think she'll be incredibly confident because Kim and Kanye are."
Khloe Kardashian: 'I'm Very Happy With Who I Am'
Khloe has quite the strong personality herself! Despite a roller coaster ride of a year 2013, complete with marriage woes and a divorce filing, Khloe says she has absolutely no regrets because her experiences have made her who she is now.
"I don't regret anything about my life. My life has made me who I am at this moment and I'm very happy with who I am," Khloe told Cosmo UK. "No matter if it's great, disgusting, beautiful or ugly; it happens and it makes you you. Life is about how you process things."
What do YOU think, HollyMoms? Do you think North will be more like Kim or Kanye?

When the pieces of the outburst
have all settled on the floor
and the echo of the shouting
isn't ringing anymore
That's when it's time to wonder
if there's any gain at all
in screaming into empty space
and flailing at the wall
What brought this on
what raised this up
what sort of trap was set?
A trigger loaded years ago
came to collect its debt
A line in stone
a line in sand
in water then in air
If only all the injury
could have been sent there
but here it is trapped far too deep
for any quick excision
Again a violent storm's blown up
to darken and blur vision
When does it end
when will it mend
when is the story finished?
Another day, a better one
but in a life diminished
Ok, so I read it, understood it, enjoyed it, related to it (sadly) and now I am commenting. I think I may be on to something...
Thanks Coyote. I regard my poems as filler in between "real" posts. I guess practice makes...marginally better.
April showers, that's how it works. Keep at it!
Cool new avatar by the way.
Hey SciChi, Which of the hundreds of screaming and breaking shit episodes are you recalling?

exercises in front of the computer?
between work and free time I spend way too much time in front of computer. What are some exercises while on your computer? When I'm not typing I have a squeeze ball I use for gripping.
Here's an idea: spend some of that free time doing exercise.
I like to squat and deadlift while working on the computer.
Your squeeze ball is an excellent path to tennis elbow if you don't do it with your arm completely straight.
On a serious note, I'd just get a standing station or an attachment that lets you stand while on the computer. |
I saw a video of a guy with a cool computer setup. He had a standing desk and had put a treadmill under it. So he was walking while working on the computer.
As long as he didn't accidentally trigger it to speed up, I think it wouldn't be too unsafe. |
This morning I squatted a VP and a secretary. |
Is that 2.5 time bw?
I spend a lot of time in front of the computer too. Here are a few things that can help to mitigate the negative effects.
Get a stand up desk so you're not spending all that time sitting. Move around to avoid being in the same posture for more than 20 minutes or so. As much as possible, be mindful of not slouching. Have your monitor in a position where you can look at it with your head in neutral alignment. As basic part of good posture, try to keep your chest up and shoulders back without giving up neutral alignment of your ribs and pelvis. Keep your chin tucked in to maintain a neutral rather than forward head posture. Some good exercises to maintain range of motion in your neck are: rotating your head up and down through the full range of motion, then side to side (as if looking to the side), then side to side (ear to shoulder), then chin to collar bone. Other than that, the best exercise is simply taking a break from the computer and moving around or doing regular mobility exercises. |
you could always add some lead tape at 3, 9 and 12 on your mouse.
you'll generate a heavier click. |
I keep a hopper in my car and hit @ lunch frequently, luckily there's a court nearby. Also stretch in my office and walk around often. Being a desk jockey sucks.
1) In my kitchen I have a yellow Theraband tied to a railing. I do external shoulder rotations for conditioning my shoulder. It could as well be tied somewhere else, like a door, and used while at the computer. You would have to rotated the chair 180 d., stand, or have two bands to get both shoulders.
2) I also have a heavy hammer and do slow controlled pronations and supinations to strengthen my wrist while watching TV. 3) Dumbell wrist curls both for wrist flexion and extension. 4) I have also used a heavy duty spring gripper as I have always preferred the range of motion over that of a ball. 5) Posture. The most important thing to do I believe is to study posture and realize that years at the computer will give your posture some features that you don't want and may increase your risk of injuries, especially collapsed abs (literally the famous nerd look) and a forward head. Have a chair that allows better posture. I also think that it is better to have a higher screen so that you are not always looking down (I say this as I'm looking down at my laptop's keyboard to hunt & pec this....and laptop screens are too low by design......) |

Microsoft Office 2010
Full user review
"Little (or dubious) value for money"
a) when upgrading from a previous MS office version:
- very little to nothing
b) when using MS office for the first time:
- seamlessly and intuitive in comparison other others office packages
- overall a good office packageCons
a) when upgrading from a previous MS office version:
- pay quite some money for new look and feel but little functional change/improvement
- substantial increase of the overall costs in comparison to the previous MS Office environments, due to:
+ the separate billing for Outlook now (previous part of MS Office)
+ and for example for the individual billing
of every additional language package. (till MS Office 2003
you got for the same price -all- language packages at once:
search for MS Proofing tools)
- backward compatibility to previous MS Office versions missing, therefore no seamlessly change for long-time users possible. (for example is the missing of a look and feel like MS Office 2003 a deficit)
b) when using MS office for the first time:
- the additional benefit of value for this much money in comparison to other Office packages and especial free Office packages is dubiousSummary
In comparison to Microsoft's company size, capabilities and the experience and knowledge they company should have obtained over the many years with MS Office, is MS Office 2010 a disappointing follow-up result.
Nevertheless it has also to be admitted, that this product compared to other major Office packages(CNET lacks these comparisons) like Corel's Office, Lotus, Open Office, Libre Office, online Office solutions, etc., that is in most cases still the better product.
But if then its price is additionally taken into account and compared with the other office packages becomes this functional advantage arguable.
The additional price paid for this functional advantage is very high.
Perhaps disproportional or perhaps not, as this is what its costs to achieve this additional functional advantage, or perhaps is this price driven by dependency of the world for this product.
Anyway Microsoft invests also much effort after a release of a MS Office package, by all the updates that follow-up etc. to maintain and assure a continuous good working product. And perhaps is this higher price for MS Office then again justified.
