January 31, 1940
The thaw. I am expecting Artie in this evening for a week's leave, but whether he can get here is doubtful. For several days now all transport, rail and road, has been disorganized or not working at all. Yesterday a train from Glasgow arrived at Euston twenty-eight hours late. The cold has been intense here in London; we were down to twenty-nine degrees of frost and the snowfall heavy. On Monday the Radioman told me that at Upminster he couldn't get through at all; the snow was five feet deep. Neither milk nor coal get into towns, and outlying villages in Derbyshire, Buxton, and Lanshire have been completely cut off from the world for over three days, and are running out of all food supplies. England hasn't had a winter like this, the weathermen say, since eighteen ninety-four. The Thames at Surbiton and Teddington is frozen over for eight miles. The serpentine, of course, where there is gala-skating going on. The Transport Board reports that they have no such difficulties on record. So it is the worst ever. Of course with the thaw we shall get floods. The sky right now looks as though it will let down another heavy snowfall by night.
February 6, 1940
It is Shrove Tuesday, but no pancakes. Mrs. Jude here to lunch; at teatime, only Ted and me. So, as we were full of pudding, decided it was too bothersome to make pancakes, just for we two.
Mrs. Jude has a brand new prophecy. One of the sisters of the Little Flower died this week. Mrs. Jude tells me that before she died the Little Flower appeared to her, and told her that the war would be all over in two months from her death.
"Now that was a fort-night ago," Mrs Jude said. "She's been dead just two weeks. You'll see, in another two months the war will be all over. The Little Flower said so!"
Yes. We will see all right. Mrs. Jude is the most absolutely superstitious person I have ever come across. There is no talk of wonders too difficult for her to swallow.
February 7, 1940
Ash Wednesday. Artie returned to the barracks today, but there is a chance he may be home again for the weekend. Mrs. Jude was here again today. I suppose she is having one of her spasms of visiting. I showed her a letter in the Times, which pleased her. Somebody wrote in to draw attention to a prophecy in Daniel Eleven. It is from Verse twenty-one, and on. It really is a very appropriate description of Hitler and Hitler's doings. It really is remarkable.
At eleven o'clock this morning the air raid warning sounded. It was only a practice signal, which it has been arranged to sound at eleven o'clock in the morning of every first Wednesday of the month; but one forgets this, or what day of the month it is, and when the warning siren goes off, one suffers a panic, willy-nilly. Suddenly I felt as though I had no insides, and probably a siren sounding will do that to me for the rest of my life.
To the editor of the Times, February 7, 1940
A Prophecy from Daniel
"Sir, you have published in your columns two extracts from Jeremiah and from Ezra's, which appear to be prophetic of current events. In the eleventh chapter of the Book of Daniel (verse twenty-one) I extract the following description, which appears particularly applicable to the Fuhrer, indicating his views and aims and destined fate."
"And in his place shall stand up a contemptible person to whom they had not given the honor of the Kingdom, but he shall come in time of security, and shall obtain the Kingdom by flatteries. And with the arms of a flood shall they be swept away from before him and shall be broken.
"And after the league made with him he shall work deceitfully; for he shall come up and shall become strong with a small people. In time of security shall he come even upon the farthest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them prey and spoil and substance: yea he shall devise his devices against the strongholds even for a time…
"And the King shall do accordingly to his will; and he shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods and he shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished; for that which is determined shall be done.
"Neither shall he regard the gods of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his place shall he honor the god of fortresses."
Yours, & c., A. Wigglesworth. Port of London Building, Trinity Square

I got there quite late, but was surprised how formal it was. I guess I am just too mejaah casual for my own good.
I met some interesting people there, though one chap wasn't too happy when he gave me the spiel about his business and I turned around and said ' So just like PointCast then?'

Re: Clearing Up the Timelines
First contact is altered because Future Picard may or may not exist due to events in Star Trek XI. Altered Timeline, following the more agressive ships. Possible response to the extinction of Vulcan and almost Extinction of the human race. Due to altered Timeline the events leading to Q sending Picard to meet the Borg may no longer apply. Picard does not meet the Borg, the Borg do not attempt to invade the Federation. Nor do they attempt to change the past because we haven't met. Second Alternative, Federation take a more Guns out of holsters deal after Vulcan extinction and multiple scans of the Romulan\Borg hyprid. When they do meet the Borg, Borg get creamed in any case the DO NOT go back in time altering First Contact. Also altered would be Archers Enterprise. His Enterprise was influenced by the Temporal War. The rescue of Kaang in the Pilot was made possible by Temporal altering of the established past. However the Temporal war no longer comes into play because the Nerada erased that Future. No Temporal War and who knows how that effects Archers Enterprise. The Suliban, Klingons even the Sphere Builders. But thats ok. While Archers Enterprise in NuTrek my no longer be in effect, it will still exist in Universe A. Pause...were going to need a bigger chart. And some asprian. |

I always thought an altrnative reality means that both (ore more) realities exist next to each other without influencing each other. (Each decision we make influences or even alters our reality to a certain point so there could be millions of realities next to each other) So I would guess the "old" timeline remains unchanged next to the "new" STXI timeline... (at least as long as nuKirk doesn't visit someone in the other universe ) Yeah, Aspirin is a good idea |

Re: Clearing Up the Timelines
This is really easy. We have two kinds of traveling going on here. All episodes where characters go back in the past within the same universe are the Grandfather Paradox-style time travel (Back to the Future). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandfather_paradox All episodes where characters meet alternate reality versions of themselves, those alternate versions are living out equal lives in an other universe. This is based on the Many-Worlds interpretation of Quantum/String theory. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory With me so far? Parallel universes do not necessarily run concurrently to each other. The Mirrorverse is concurrent with the Primeverse. However, the Abramsverse is 154 years behind when Nero enters it and only 129 years behind when Spock Prime enters it in what he perceives to be only SECONDS later (a few seconds in the Primeverse is the equivalent of 25 years in the Abramsverse). To take this further... This Many-Worlds interpretation means that there are an infinite number of universes that might be equal or just slightly different from others all running at either the same or different speeds. Years or centuries in one dimension might be seconds in another. You are confusing in-universe time travel episodes with alternate dimensions. Star Trek contains both. The Voyage Home is in-universe time travel within the same dimension. Mirror, Mirror or Parallels are examples where alternate dimensions are supported. Star Trek '09 is the latter, but in a universe that is not concurrently running at the same speed. I also disagree with Paramount's version. The break in the timeline is not time travel back in time before the entry into the alternate dimension. We have support already that the dimension runs at a different rate of speed (Nero and Spock's entry times). The break is at 2387 which leads to 2233 for Nero and 2258 for Spock.

PAWTUCKET – There are going to be nights when the team's leading scorer struggles. How does the rest of the team react when something like this happens? Are they going to be able to pick up the slack? Tolman head coach Mike Kayata got all the answers he would need on Thursday night. With top dog Juan Velez mired in a dreadful funk and showing no sign of clearing the fog, Kayata opted to sit the junior down and place the outcome of this crucial contest against Barrington into the hands of the likes of Samb brothers, Seny and Mamour, along with senior Justin Zetina.
By all accounts, January is the slowest month on the baseball calendar. It's the month that follows the hustle and bustle of the player acquisition crunch and the month prior to spring training with the backdrop of warm, picturesque conditions in Florida and Arizona.
PAWTUCKET --- United, they stand. Divided, who knows if the St. Raphael Academy hockey team and the Providence Country Day/Wheeler School co-op squad would have fallen from existence after last season? For the Saints, they struggled mightily with numbers a season ago, as only 14 players (three of them goaltenders) made up their roster. Because of their lack of depth, they staggered to a 3-15 mark that included a handful of losses that saw them fizzle from fatigue during the last period and watch leads slip away from them.
PAWTUCKET — Saying that he knows the topic is controversial, Councilor Christopher O'Neill on Wednesday called for the formation of an ad hoc committee to continue looking into installing cameras at heavily traveled intersections to improve public safety, despite a letter from the city's police chief recommending that such action be held off in order to try out a new computer program designed to reduce accidents.
PAWTUCKET — Once heralded as the city's "bridge to prosperity," the new I-95 Pawtucket River Bridge is turning out to be anything but. Citing a litany of frustrations and concerns related to the $81 million highway project, the City Council voted 7 to 0 on Wednesday to explore taking legal action against either the state or the federal government as a way of recouping financial losses to Pawtucket.

the shiseido 'the skincae moisturizing' line (white bottle, red letters) TOTALLY SAVED MY SKIN. (and my life.)
this is a softner meant to be used before moisturizer... and i do use it after toner and before moisturizer to get the softest, nicest, most moisturized skin I've ever had in my life,
but you can also just use it as toner or just moisturizer. I do sometimes when I'm in a hurry and had absolutely no problems.
This is just..one of those 'magic potions' that's now a HG, essential, to my skincare routine.
It IS pretty expensive, but man it will last you a long time - I've just got the smaller, sample version from a sample kit package, used it generously even to my neck, and its been 3 months and its not even 25% used up. so...
this is the only non-greasy/oily but effective moisturizer.(well, softner.)
it moisturizes your skin by absorbing inside skin and giving a matte but soft,moisturized finish, and doesn't feel like theres 'a layer' of something on top of your skin.
I'll continue to buy it, bottle after bottle....
This product makes my face very smooth. It isn't overdrying, like the Clinique toners, and it smells great!
The only problem I have with this toner is that I seem to use it up really quickly - I even use the Shiseido cottons. I feel like it takes a lot to dampen my cotton ..
Shiseido doesn't make toners, only the softeners which are to be used before the moisturizers. It's used after cleansing and before moisturizing so in a way it's like a toner, but works differently. I've had some toners dry out my face so I end up using this as a clean-up step after the cleansing and as a prep-step before moisturizing. Definitely soaks in and retains moisture better. Helps skin feel nice and soft.
I'm on my second bottle of this lotion/softener product (to be honest, I didn't know it was a softener... and treated this as a toner). It's good because it does seem to soothe out the redness, and helps the application of your moisturiser. It gives a clean feeling and doesn't feel tight. I would probably recommend this after a good cleanser, removing all the excess oil, which means this product is suitable for all skin types. One lippie off because of the price and sheer fact that I finished the bottle too fast for it's price.

Shiseido does not actually produce toners as far as I can tell. You pump it onto a cotton ball and wipe face, Even after using cleansers, my face still has oil that needs to be removed, this does this very well. I use it before the emulsion. It basically tones and adds a lil a moisture so unlike most toners that dry out your skin, it leaves it soft.
Highly Recommended!
This is the first time I have used such a product (and I believe softeners are unique to Shiseido?) and I don't have any regrets. I thought it would make my skin break out (it's sensitive & dry, yet still gets oily, and I sometimes get 'adult acne' around my jawline), however, in the three weeks since I have started using this product, I've seen a vast improvement in the texture and appearance of my skin. I adore the scent too - mild and pleasant, and not over-powering and generic like others can be. The moisturiser absorption is also very fast after using this product (it tends to 'sit' on your face without first using the softener).
this is a great toner that takes my makeup residue off my face after washing. the bottle is really cute. i love everything about it except for the price of it.
I love how this product makes my skin feel so smooth and soft! And no stickiness either! The toner also gives my skin a matte finish without feeling dry. It is a little pricey but well worth it. I like the packaging and the pump. I just squirt out two drops on a cotton pad and apply it right after I wash my face. There is a light scent but it doesn't bother me. My moisturizer sinks right in my skin after I put on the toner. Overall, I l love this product!
I've used Shiseido since I was 11 and their skincare is really great. For this one, I don't use a cotton pad and it works fine. It really made a difference to my face. If I use Shiseido moisturizer without this, it takes forever to sink in. But when I use this, my moisturizer sinks in quickly. I said I would repurchase but it is discontinued.

On Tuesday, September 9, Yo-Yo Ma will be honored with the Concertgebouw Prize for his career-long contributions to the Dutch institution's artistic profile. Simon Reinink, managing director of the Concertgebouw, stated: "Since the beginning of his rich musical career, Yo-Yo Ma has had a close bond with the Concertgebouw. It was no coincidence that he was the first musician invited to curate the inaugural Carte Blanche series in the 1992/1993 season. It affirmed a warm musical relationship that continues to this day."
Previous recipients of the Concertgebouw Prize include mezzo-soprano Cecilia Bartoli (2004), the Beaux Arts Trio (2006), conductor Bernard Haitink (2007), the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (2009), pianist Maurizio Pollini (2010), baritone Thomas Hampson (2011) and violinist Janine Jansen (2013).
Yo-Yo Ma is currently on European tour with the Silk Road Ensemble. They perform at Amsterdam's Concertgebouw on September 10.

On Monday, September 8, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble give their first performance together at Paris's Theatre des Champs-Élysées, celebrating 15 years of cultural exploration through music. For Silk Road Project founder Yo-Yo Ma, the concert is remarkable:
"In 1941, my father's dissertation at the Sorbonne was published. The topic was 'La musique chinoise du style Europeen.' 60 years later, in 2001, the Silk Road Ensemble made its first world tour across three continents, addressing a similar idea: we performed music that spanned the Mediterranean to the Pacific, joining millennia-old traditions with contemporary forms, celebrating and connecting tradition with innovation. It is particularly moving to me that we are performing at the Theatre de Champs-Élysées, which opened in the heyday of Debussy and Ravel only 24 years after the Exposition Universelle where they first encountered gamelan music and other musics from around the world. This transformational moment had two results: the invention of a new 'world classical music', and music that became and remained even more quintessentially French. At Silk Road, for the past 15 years, we have been modeling this same value of joining tradition with innovation. We hope you will join us in our continuing exploration."
Join Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble at the Theatre de Champs-Élysées.

Australia call for Starc
Australia have called up left-arm paceman Mitchell Starc as cover during the remainder of the NatWest Series while they assess Brett Lee and Shane Watson's calf injuries.
The tourists, 3-0 down against England with just the final one-day international to come at Old Trafford on Tuesday, are hoping to discover the extent of fast bowler Lee and batting all-rounder Watson's injuries after scans.
Both pulled up sore while bowling in yesterday's eight-wicket defeat at the Emirates Durham ICG and had to leave the field after they were unable to complete their spells.
Starc, 22, last represented his country in the Test series against West Indies in the Caribbean three months ago. Today's call-up came while playing for Yorkshire in the Friends Life t20 North Group clash with Derbyshire.
An Australia team spokesman said: "We have called up Mitchell Starc as cover, because we are still assessing the two injured players."

The rupee wiped out initial losses and made a smart recovery on Wednesday, rising 56 paise to 67.07 against the dollar after the central bank was said to have stepped in to lift the local currency from near record lows.
While a weakening dollar overseas ahead of weekly supply data from the US aided the rupee's rise, capital outflows restricted the gains, a forex dealer said.
The recovery in the rupee, the worst-performing currency in Asia this year, came as Raghuram Rajan took over as Governor of the RBI, which is battling high inflation, low growth and a burgeoning current account deficit.
The rupee started on a bearish note at 68.10 to a dollar from the previous close of 67.63 and dipped to a low of 68.62 at the interbank foreign exchange market due to dollar demand from importers. The currency had touched a lifetime low of 68.85 on August 28.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) was said to have intervened at this stage through state-run banks, leading the rupee to bounce back to a high of 66.80 before ending at 67.07, a rise of 56 paise or 0.83 per cent. Yesterday, the rupee had slumped 163 paise or 2.47 per cent.
"The Indian central bank aggressively sold dollars in the spot market to prevent the currency from falling to a record low," said Pramit Brahmbhatt, CEO of Alpari Financial Services (India). "The trading range for the spot USD-INR pair is expected to be within 66.20 to 67.80."
The RBI on Wednesday eased external commercial borrowing norms to allow companies to use overseas loans for general corporate purposes. It also clarified that the August 14 curbs were not intended to restrict bona fide overseas investments.
The benchmark S&P BSE Sensex on Wednesday shot up 332.89 points or 1.83 per cent. Foreign institutional investors sold shares a net Rs 716.16 crore of shares on Tuesday, as per provisional data with the stock exchanges.

You can definitely save money very quickly, if you brew Belgian beers. For example: Lets say you have invested $500 in beer making gear. It costs about $1 a beer to make a Belgian strong ale. That is if you buy two $7 yeasts and buy Belgian candi sugar. It can obviously be done for less, but I'll use the less economical method for this example. A good commercial Belgian ale costs $6 per beer or more, so you're saving $5 per beer. Therefore, it only takes 100 Belgian home brewed beers (two 5 gallon batches) to break even on the equipment.
I see it as a way to divert expenditures from one area to another. For example, instead of paying more for extract, I use that money to buy equipment for all grain brewing. Another example, instead of spending money on more yeast, wash the yeast and use the savings to buy more equipment, etc., etc. Now that I've used up all my ideas to save money, I still buy more equipment. Whoops, now I just spend more and more money. Hey, at least I get to drink beer, while making beer!

For more serious traffic offenses where the defendant is physically arrested and taken into police custody, the defendant's court case begins when a prosecutor orally charges the defendant in court or files a written complaint or information against the defendant, or when a grand jury returns an indictment charging the defendant with committing a traffic crime.

Why New York mayor's race could be big deal for American liberalism
The new front-runner in the New York mayor's race is Bill de Blasio, the most liberal major candidate in the field. If he wins, it could be a boost for the left nationally.
Eduardo Munoz/Reuters
New York
A dramatic August surge has catapulted New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio into a surprising double-digit lead with less than two weeks to go before the Sept. 10 Democratic primary.
As late as mid-July, when the mayor's race was dominated by the reemergence of Anthony Weiner, Mr. de Blasio languished in fourth place in most polls, a side story to the new campaign of the charismatic candidate, who energized what many saw as a lackluster race.
But as Carlos Danger and Sydney Leathers receded from the political spotlight, de Blasio, the most liberal voice, began to quietly pick up those voters abandoning the self-imploding congressman from Queens.
Now de Blasio has the backing of 36 percent of likely Democratic voters, up from 10 percent in mid-July, according to a Quinnipiac poll. De Blasio's emergence has even put the loping 6-foot, 5-inch public advocate within reach of the 40 percent threshold needed to avoid an Oct. 1 runoff.
Long-time front-runner Christine Quinn, the City Council speaker and frequent ally of Mayor Michael Bloomberg, is languishing at 21 percent, a statistical dead heat with former Comptroller Bill Thompson, who narrowly lost to Mayor Michael Bloomberg in the 2009 general election. (Mr. Bloomberg cannot run for a fourth term because of term limits.)
Even in a runoff, however, the Quinnipiac poll shows de Blasio easily beating Ms. Quinn, 59 percent to 30 percent, and Mr. Thompson, 52 percent to 36 percent.

THE casino at the smart Atlantis resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas is bigger than 20 tennis courts. Tourists flit from slot machine to roulette table, drift past Temples of the Sun and Moon and walk by Crystal Gate and Poseidon's Throne. But the only Bahamians in sight are waiters, croupiers and cashiers.
The Bahamas legalised casino gambling in 1969, when they were still a British colony. But mainly because of the influence of local pastors, both Bahamians and foreigners who live in the country are banned from gambling.
This has not stopped residents from placing bets. Instead, they gamble off the books in "number houses" or "web shops"—legal internet cafés that offer illegal bets on the side and operate in plain sight. These have mushroomed in recent years, even as tourism has stagnated and hotels have reduced staff. This pretence will be put to the test on January 28th, when a referendum will be held on legalising gambling in web shops, as well as on a separate proposal to set up a national lottery.
The well-funded campaign supporting the initiative has been distributing posters and T-shirts. It argues that web shops account for almost 2% of jobs in the country, and that gambling taxes could help close the budget deficit. The "no" movement, which calls itself "Save Our Bahamas", is led by the islands' evangelical churches. Perry Christie, the prime minister, says he has "no horse in the race". The opposition accuses him, without proof, of running a "fixed" referendum on behalf of web-shop owners who back him financially.
If the proposal is approved, the government will probably try to pass a series of reforms supported by the big hotel casinos. In order to compete with Las Vegas, New Jersey or Macau, they say, they need authorisation for credit-card payment for chips, online and mobile wagers, private VIP gaming rooms and betting on sports matches while play is in progress. They also want stronger legal tools to collect unpaid debts and the right to void payments caused by computer errors. The tourism minister has already announced support for these policies. However, letting Bahamians into the casinos is not yet on the agenda.

But death and debauchery are apparently not new to the facility. "Do you have any idea of how much shit happens that people never hear of, because it never makes it out of here? Homicides, suicides. People lose all their money and kill themselves," the female employee claimed. Both said that because the Seminole nation doesn't have to report incidents in the hotel because it's on the reservation, arrests, drug use, and even deaths were going unnoticed by the larger public.
Managers, they said, "treat you like shit," and the turnover is so high that there are "two new people every week."
So why stick around?
Said the young woman: "I meet celebrities all the time. I've seen every single celebrity zooted out of their head." Just this week, she said, she met Dennis Rodman, R. Kelly, Pauly Shore, and Magic Johnson. And besides, "the money is amazing." When she worked as a server, "I made $500 a night."
At 4 p.m., there had been a shift change, so many of the employees were just learning the news as they got to work. Mumbled a dealer manning a poker table: "They don't tell us much. She's always here, though."
Half a dozen bartenders, however, swore they'd never seen her in the place. And they weren't giving out any information then. Out of more than 100 televisions in the place, not a single one was on CNN. "They won't let us watch news," a barkeep said.
A worker in the food court said she saw paramedics wheeling Anna Nicole through the lobby. But she didn't know anything more Thursday was her first day of work. Four other people we questioned said the same thing.
A Hooters waitress told us that she had never seen Anna Nicole when her manager appeared, got right in her face, and said, "Why were you 20 minutes late tonight?" She blamed traffic.
In front of the fancy seafood place Bluepoint, a teary, hand-wringing waitress was singled out for an outdoor upbraiding from her boss. He was pointing at her. Pacing. Swearing. Screaming. We made eye contact, and her whole face trembled with embarrassment.
Guests, meanwhile, were chattering about the news, many talking into cell phones.
A pair of pierced and tattooed young punks were discussing Anna Nicole's drug use. "It's not crack if you're rich, dude," one admonishes the other. "It's called freebase!"

UPDATED: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - 5:34am
BATON ROUGE, La. (NBC33) — Tropical Storm Isaac formed on Tuesday afternoon in the Atlantic Basin. In reaction, we are reminded that history remember the I-hurricanes well.
Here are 5 Facts about retired I-hurricanes:
- The most costly I-hurricane in U.S. history goes to Ike which hit Louisiana/Texas in 2008
- Irene was the most recent I-hurricane to be retired
- 7 I-hurricanes have been retired out of the last 11 years
- All 9 retired, I-hurricanes have been major hurricanes. (Category 3+)
- 6 out of the 9 retired, I-hurricanes have been female; 3 of 9 male
It is important to remember that I-hurricanes aren't alone in the history books as most damaging. Letters A through W have retired names also. ie. Andrew and Wilma.

Motion-capture animation and 3D appear to be the rising stars of movie technology. Spielberg's film "The Adventures of Tintin" uses these to full advantage
Tintin fans of course would love everything about the movie — the setting, the characters, the references scattered all over. Even if you were not a Tintin fan, you would love the 3-D movie for its state-of-the-art technology. Did you watch "The Adventures of Tintin"?
That Steven Spielberg, whose movies depend so much on real-time emotions, should opt for an animation flick is a surprise. Well, when Spielberg goes in for digital cinematography, he does it in style. In " The Adventures of Tintin" he takes up James Cameron's revolutionary motion-capture technology (aka performance capture or mo-cap) to tell the story of Tintin, the intrepid boy reporter, using Peter Jackson's company Weta to get the 3-D, photorealistic effects. Spielberg and Jackson go from comic book to cinema screen using the latest VFX technology.
In a press release some months ago, Jackson said, "We're making them look photorealistic; the fibres in their clothing, the pores on their skin and every individual hair. They look exactly like real people — real Hergé (writer-illustrator of the comics) people!"
"The Adventures of Tintin" is a groundbreaking movie that pushes the limits of 3-D technology. Spielberg takes advantage of the virtual environment to shoot awesome action scenes. The frames move seamlessly, without cuts. Within a couple of minutes you forget this is an animation movie. The 3-D is non-intrusive.
How is this done? In the motion-capture process, movement is recorded and then translated onto a digital model. It has applications in the military, in entertainment, sport, medicine and robotics. In filmmaking, using mo-cap the director records the actions of human actors, and uses that information to animate digital character models in 2D or 3D. When there is movement in faces and fingers and we see expressions, the technology becomes "performance capture."
We didn't see Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis or Daniel Craig in the movie. We saw Tintin, Captain Haddock and villain Red Rakham. That is because mo-cap records only the movements of the actor, not his appearance. This animation data is mapped to a 3D model so that the model performs the same actions as the actor. Amazingly, camera movements are also motion-captured. Driven by a cameraman, a virtual camera in the scene dips, rises and moves around the stage when the actor is performing. The mo-cap system captures the camera, props and the actor's performance. Now the computer-generated characters, images and sets have the same perspective as the video images from the camera. A computer processes the data and displays the movements of the actor, providing the camera positions needed in terms of objects on the set. Using this camera-tracking technique, Spielberg proves virtual cinematography can do things you couldn't in live action.
Why animation?
Why did he choose animation to tell this story? Perhaps because it is set in the pre-WWII era. "It just seemed that live action would be too stylised for an audience to relate to," Spielberg told LA Times. "You'd have to have costumes that are a little outrageous. The costumes seem to fit better when the medium chosen is digital."
Spielberg said he loved seeing actors perform in real-time — but as digital replicas. "You get to paint with this device that puts you into a virtual world, and allows you to make your shots and block all the actors with a small hand-held device only three times as large as an Xbox game controller. So as Andy Serkis runs across the stage, there's Captain Haddock on the monitor, in full anime, running along the streets of Belgium. Not only are the actors represented in real-time, they also enter into a three-dimensional world."
There's a problem though. The movie races like a Vettel-driven Infiniti FX50. There is no time to savour the connection between the animation and the photo-realist flourishes. There are superb Spielbergian touches like that scene in the desert but before you can fully appreciate the cinematic cuteness, it flashes past. That's when you curse technology for overtaking the creative genius of Spielberg.
Motion-capture animation and 3D appear to be the rising stars of movie technology. If you think full-length animated movies are lifeless waste of technology, you should watch "Tintin". In this movie, Spielberg conducts a superb marriage between live-action and animation. This is one step ahead in high-tech storytelling.
Tintin trivia
* Oakley, the optical instruments firm brought out special 3D Gascan TINTIN Limited Edition glasses for the movie.
* A custom Microclear(TM) bag is included for frame storage and lens cleaning, and the bag carries film-inspired graphics.
* Just 4000 units of the limited edition 3D glasses will be available worldwide.
* The company says the HDO-3D technology ensures that the wearer will not see the ghosting that comes with ordinary 3D glasses.

A&M, other 'it' teams will disappoint
Aggies, Huskers and others are getting preseason love, but aren't at an elite level yet
Every year, the college football world casts preseason ballots, and a few teams are dubbed with the honor of being the "it" programs for the upcoming season. We're not talking about the perennial contenders that populate the majority of preseason top 10 lists, like the top three teams in ESPN's preseason power poll -- the LSU Tigers, Alabama Crimson Tide and Oklahoma Sooners. Those three teams have each appeared in and/or won a recent BCS championship game. Each is loaded with talent because of elite recruiting, and each has a head coach with a proven track record.
No, we're referring to the teams who land high posts in the preseason rankings for being "programs on the rise," teams ready to break through from outside the usual suspects. And almost every year, those programs don't meet the lofty expectations thrust upon them.
Take, for example, the 2009 Ole Miss Rebels. In that year's preseason polls, Mississippi earned "it" program honors, ranking in the top 10 despite having had a losing record in four of the previous five seasons. In 2010, it was Nebraska's turn to play the role, garnering top-10 status in the preseason on the heels of solid but not spectacular recent performances. In both cases, our Football Outsiders projections nominated those teams as destined to fall short of a top-10 finish. Both teams were decent, of course, but not quite ready for prime time -- and thus were considered by some to have had disappointing seasons. The "it" program tag might be more of a curse than anything else.
So who fits the "hyped teams most likely to disappoint" bill in 2011? We have a metric that can show us: Program FEI (PFEI). It takes five years of possession-by-possession team efficiency data to rate the strength of college football programs, and it provides us with a reliable way of determining next-year success. The results speak for themselves; In the last 10 years, all 20 teams that participated in the BCS championship game had entered that season ranked among the top-20 teams according to PFEI.
And as for the "it" programs that weren't quite ready to fulfill their great expectations? Both Ole Miss and Nebraska entered the year ranked outside of the top-40 in Program FEI in those respective seasons.
In summary: Championship programs don't just come out of nowhere. And that's why we should view the following five preseason darlings with a heavy dose of skepticism:
Texas A&M Aggies

Pros:Well, it`s very very cheap if you compare with the ipad case. I think, in BRazil, an ipad case costs a US$ 100. So it`s a very good cost-benefit. The material has a nice touch. The holes are in the correct place. It`s very useful.
Cons:Well, the bottom of the case could be more padded. Unless the bottom protect the ipad, if it`s more padded will be better. A little problem with the case is the perfect closure... The case, sometimes, because it`s not perfect closure, maintains the ipad in operation... And this consumes so many battery...

Diamond Cats sweep Univ. of Dallas
SAGU wins twice with late comebacks
Weekend Series with Langston Cancelled
IRVING, Texas -- The second year softball team at Southwestern Assemblies of God University continued the inspiring start to their 2013 season with a thrilling sweep of a doubleheader on Tuesday night in Irving, Texas.
Playing a twi-light doubleheader against the University of Dallas, the Lady Lions rallied from behind twice in the last inning to defeat the Crusaders 7-6 and 10-9.
Head Coach Tim Grant's young team, who went 2-28 in their inaugural season, have now won three games in a row to lift their record to 5-4.
After opening the season with three losses to Our Lady of the Lake University, SAGU travelled to Moore, Oklahoma. There, they took 3-of-4 from Hillsdale College.
On Friday they won 7-3 and 12-2, followed by a 9-4 loss on Saturday. They rebounded in a 9-4 triumph in the finale.
A year ago the team scored just 41 runs in 30 games. Through nine games this season they have crossed the plate 53 times.
Sophomore pitcher Shannen Davis-Nance (Enid, Ok / Kremlin-Hillsdale HS) picked up both wins on Monday, once as a starter, the other in relief.
The Lady Lions scheduled home series this weekend against Langston University (Okla) has been cancelled.
No make-up date has been announced. Since the three games are in the conference schedule, an attempt to play them will be made. There was also no clarification if weather played a part in the ruling, though the campus ballfield receiving a solid amount of rainfall over night on Tuesday.
The Lady Lions rallied for two runs in the top of the seventh inning, and then held off a rally by the Lady 'Saders for a 7-6 victory.
Sophomore second baseman Theresa Ballard (Austin, Tx / Home School) drove in what turned out to be the winning run – which was scored by Kasey Poovey (Nevada, Tx / Community HS).
Tied at 5-5, Kelsey Coburn (Lewisville, Tx / Lewisville HS) started the rally with a single up the middle. She raced home when Blayr Huff (Keller, Tx / Liberty Christian) doubled with a shot down the leftfield line.
Poovey lined a single to right-center. Following a fielder's choice that ended with Huff out at the plate, Ballard came to bat. Toting a .250 average, she poked a clutch single along the rightfield line that sent Poovey in to score for a 7-5 lead.
Nance, who started the game, opening the seventh by fanning the first batter. She was chased after a seeing-eye single through the left side and a double.
Ashley Abair (Kennedale, Tx / Kennedale HS) entered the game. She was greeted with ground ball that got through the right side, drawing UD to within a run.
With two runners aboard and one out, Abair buckled down. She coaxed the Crusaders' clean-up batter to pop up in foul territory. Catcher Heather Wyatt (Lake Jackson, Tx / Brazoswood HS) made the grab.
Abair ended the game by striking out Dallas' #5 hitter in the line-up, swinging. It earned her a save to go along with a win she picked up against Hillsdale.
SAGU outhit UD, 14-10, and made a lone error.
Coburn led the attack with a 3-for-4 effort that included three runs batted in. Poovey duplicated her 3-for-4 showing while Huff and Wyatt each contributed 2-for-4 games.
SAGU scored five unanswered runs to take a 5-2 lead into the bottom of the sixth.
The hosts then knotted the score with a three-spot on four singles and a two-run triple. Nance got out of a two-out jam by striking out a pinch-hitter with runners on second and third base.
Trailing 2-0 early, the Lady Lions tacked on single runs in the second and third.
Huff doubled to center and was driven in when Nance stroked a single up the middle. In the third frame, Feliciana Maldonado (Victorville, Cal / Victor Valley) singled with two outs, stole second and came home when Coburn lined an RBI hit to center.
Deadlocked at 2-2 in the fifth, Wyatt jolted the Crusaders with a leadoff double. Shortstop McKinlee Stokes (Pampa, Tx / Pampa HS) beat out an infield hit. After Stokes swiped second, both runners were knocked in on Coburn's single to center.
SAGU added a run in the sixth. Wyatt pounded a two-out gapper to left-center for a double. She scampered across the dish when Cassandra Mata's (Crystal City, Tx / Crystal City HS) grounder was misplayed by the shortstop.
Nance got the win by going six and one-third innings. She was charged with nine hits and six runs, though only four were earned. The righthander struck out two and did not issue a walk.
Fresh off one comeback, the team played their first night game. Just like the first game, these 'Cats played like they had nine lives.
SAGU scored four times in the top of the seventh inning for a 10-9 win over the University of Dallas.
After surrendering four to the Crusaders in their half of the sixth, SAGU countered with an impressive rally in the top of the last.
With one down, Poovey singled to left, then scored when Nance unloaded a two-bagger to center. Wyatt, who is heating up after a slow start to the season, ripped a shot past third to bring up Abair.
The freshman tagged a deep double to left that drew chalk and a pair of runs to tie the score at nine apiece. An error in centerfield on the next batter advanced Abair to third.
Stokes grounded to short, which forced Mata at second. The relay to first was late, allowing Abair to score the lead run. A flyout to right ended the rally.
Nance, who entered the game in relief of Abair in the sixth, retired the side in order to pick up the win. She got the leadoff batter on a pop-up, and the next batter grounded out to Stokes. The game ended on a line-drive to right that was snared by Poovey.
SAGU was credited with 15 hits, seven more than the U-of-D.
Stokes, who jumpstarts the order, was 4-for-5 with a run batted in as well as three runs scored. Nance blasted two doubles and went 3-for-4 with 3 RBI.
Abair and Poovey racked up a pair of hits, with Abair and Coburn totaling two ribbies.
An indicator that SAGU was going to be bringing it came in the very first inning. Stokes singled and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt.
Coburn, in the spirit of the TV show "Survivor," voted the next pitch off the island. She crushed the offering well beyond the fencing for a two-run homer.
The Lady Lions fell behind 5-3 after three, before taking a 6-5 advantage in the fifth.
Nance doubled in Poovey in the fourth, then tallied twice in the fifth. Coburn and Nance knocked in two baserunners.
Abair went the first five frames, allowing six hits and six walks, which were turned into eight runs, six of them earned.
Nance collected the win with two innings of work. She was touched for an earned run and two hits. She walked one batter and whiffed two.

Hmmm... if mechanically, you want a combo-melee caster... R-> The last (non R) spell you cast comes off cooldown. has 1 charge per rank. regenerates 1 charge every 15 seconds or so. Spells would have low scaling because of how much hey can be spammed, but if he has any utility at all (cough-riven) he will be a monster bruiser anyway.
Omg regnar had a baby!!!!!

The Stitched Graffiti cap, from Lackpard's Military series, features a large distressed "Lackpard" appliqué with a screen print design. The cap is made from potassium washed cotton twill for a worn out bleached look. Main image shown in Olive; small images from right to left: Olive (back), Brown and Pink.
THE OTTO BALL CAP IS AN "OTTO"-MATIC CROWD PLEASER! A surefire crowd pleaser, the Otto ball cap may be the ideal headwear for taking it easy, but it's also one of the most meticulously crafted hats that you can buy. From its six-panel construction, to the superior stitching, the Otto ball cap shows why Otto International, Inc. has been one of the world's most popular manufacturers of ball caps for more than half a century. Available in canvas brushed cotton twill, and soft cloth, Otto ball caps prove that the difference really is in the details, such as a stronger visor and adjustable closure for no-slip fit. And the designs? From flames, to skulls, to your favorite logos, the Otto ball cap puts it out there with bold style that makes this a must-have item.

Gift for my dad to replace ones he had before that were no longer useable. He said they were comfortable and fit fine. He'll be using them for short trips to the mailbox or around the garden or garage.
I bought these in the dark gray for my son at Christmas, he loves them. The rubber bottoms allow for going outside which is an added bonus. He said they are very comfortable. Worth the money, good quality. I would recommend purchasing.
My husband loves these. I ordered two pair. One of them has a lower back and he prefers it, but likes them both and he says they are comfortable. He needed house shoes he could take the dogs out in.
