The Congressional Oversight Panel said if the government's assumptions about the economy prove to have been too optimistic, it might need to redo the stress tests of the nation's biggest financial institutions. For the most part, the panel applauded the stress tests and the regulators that conducted them. However, the panel noted that the reviews assumed an 8.9% average unemployment rate as the worst-case scenario.

I tried to rewatch episode 1 after that, and for some reason everything felt different - I felt connected to the songs - in a big way! -_-Read more

3 out of 5 people found this review helpful:AMAZING REALLY GOOD!This is a really good show but sadly crunchyroll doesnt have the First Season so the show may seem confusing and dull. I really suggest you watch the first season called AKB0048. The plot of this show is good its based off of the real idol group called AKB48. It involves fun catchy songs, Friendship and wanting to spread music to planets that have an anti-music ban. This show is good i reccomd ...Read more
Surprisingly Awesome!I was expecting this show to be kinda dull, but I was wrong. After the first episode, I was hooked. The music, the characters, the story you just end up loving them all. It has been one of the few shows I've been able to rewatch without waiting a few years.
Omg, finally another anime I actually liked.I just finished the series and I'm really devastated that there doesn't seem to be a third season being talked about on the interwebs. :cRead more
TO ANYONE READING THESE REVIEWS: Give it a chance if you like anime where duality is key, like Madoka Magica. Shoujo adorableness channeled by travelling [and battle trained] idols is a light [or even a Center Nova] in a sometimes dark universe where ...
A cute anime~ AKB0048I love the songs in this anime~! I also thought it was a interesting story due to idols being forbidden. I usually don't watch anime without any romance, but this was pretty good. I believe it is a cute anime and I like their outfits! The very first time I saw AKB0048's picture and the description about the anime I had no idea it was based on AKB48. I didn't know about AKB48 till later. I finally ...Read more
Cute and fun sci-fi actionFun and cute anime. I decided to give it a shot even though I didn't find the description necessarily intriguing. I'm so glad I did. I'm obsessed. It's a really feel good show. You fall in love with all the characters. You find yourself empathizing with and rooting for all of them. It's not just cute, there's a lot of good action in the show too. I was addicted after the first two episodes.
Perfect from beginning to end. Would rewatch.This anime as a whole is just, perfect. Each character is unique and many of the songs (especially Beginner) leave you with goosebumps with how perfectly it matches the atmosphere of a scene. The little kirara are adorable, each character that gains major screen time goes through some sort of character development one way or the other, and just everything in this anime screams cute but badass at ...Read more
Creative and Inspiring!This anime has a bit of everything, but it is definitely more of a 'girly' anime I think. (Although kudos to all the guys out there that like it!)Read more
I really really enjoyed this show. There are funny moments, exciting moments where you are just cheering the characters on, and very emotional moments. There is more noticeable character growth that is in this anime, than I have seen in most others. I ...
amazing soundtrack and feelsGreat soundtrack the songs will stay in your head for weeks after you finish it. and there are so many feels with these girls as they change and grow. (also gotta give it points for a unique setting) overall this anime is a must watch for anyone that likes music anime or just a good story about cute girls growing thru hard experiences
This is my all time favorite anime!Okay, I have always been a fan of AKB48 but when my friend showed me the first episode of this series I was hooked. This is first show in general that I was so moved by that every episode made we cry for joy or for sadness. I love this show forever and always <3

In a nozzle reverser assembly for a gas turbine engine, a swinging vane pack reverser is provided in place of the prior art array of cascade vanes in reverser ports of such engines. The present invention includes a door flap that is hinged on the aft side of a reverser port, which door flap has sidewalls attached thereto that extend into such port. The reverser assembly of the invention also includes a vane pack that is hinged at the forward end of such reverser port and has a roller attached its aft end, which roller engages a track within the door flap for sliding engagement therewith. Forward of the vane pack hinge, a boundary layer trip fence is hinged to the engine housing. In operation, air flow directed into the reverser cavity, e.g. by a convergent flap, is guided further by the above door flap and its sidewalls. The flow then passes through the longitudinally disposed vanes of the vane pack, which pack extends across the reverser port and between the door flap and trip fence, which in their open position, extend forward at acute angles with such engine, to define an external reverser channel therefor. The boundary layer trip fence prevents the gas exiting the reverser from traveling up the air frame boundary layer while the vane pack provides for lateral vectoring to prevent reverser gas flow from impinging on aircraft control surfaces. Thus, reverser flow can be directed from an engine at desired pitch and splay angles and at reduced flow blockage through such vanes.
1. A reverser assembly for a nozzle of a gas turbine engine which has internal reverser flaps comprising, a reverser opening on at least one side of the nozzel, a forward door and a rearward door mounted over said opening having spaced-apart pivot points, which doors pivot toward each other into closed position and which pivot away from each other into an open position, projecting from the side of said engine to direct reverser gas flow away from said engine at a desired pitch angle in a fore and aft direction, a swinging vane pack pivotably mounted at one end proximate said forward door, between said pivot points, to said engine, said vane pack being mounted in sliding engagement at the other end thereof with said aft door so as to be swingably mounted across the reverser exhaust opening, which vane pack has a plurality of spaced vanes which can be oriented to splay reverser gas away from aircraft components in a laterally vectoring direction relative to said engine so as to provide multi-directional reverser flow control for said engine.
2. A nozzle reverser assembly for a gas turbine engine having a housing comprising at least one reverser opening in said housing, a fore door mounted to said housing forward of said opening, an aft door mounted to said housing rearward of said opening, which doors pivot open and closed in opposite directions at spaced-apart pivot points and which when open, angle forward to upstand from said engine, a vane pack which is pivotably mounted proximate said fore door at one end of said pack and which slidably engages said aft door at the other end of said pack, so as to extend across said opening between the pivot points of said flaps, said pack having a plurality of spaced vanes therein, running substantially fore and aft relative to said engine such that the spaced flaps direct reverser gas away from said engine longitudinally at a pitch angle and said vanes are positioned to direct such reverser gas laterally of said engine at a splay angle, in multi-directional reverser flow control.
3. The nozzle reverser assembly of claim 2 wherein said aft door flap has a pair of sidewalls extending therefrom into said reverser opening, even when said aft door is in full open position.
4. The nozzle reverser assembly of claim 2 wherein said vane pack pivots toward the engine in sliding engagement with said aft door, which aft door pivots forward, toward the engine and over said vane pack and which fore door pivots rearwardly and toward the engine so as to overlap aft door, so as to present a nearly continuous engine skin when said reverser is inactive and said doors are closed.
5. The nozzle reverser assembly of claim 4 wherein said pivoting vane pack, pivoting aft door and pivoting fore door are operated by a linked mechanism.
6. The nozzle reverser assembly of claim 5 wherein said linked mechanism serves to close said doors in the order there-given, by outside air pressure on a moving aircraft against said fore door and through the linked mechanism in the event of hydraulic failure in a fail-safe arrangement.
7. A nozzle reverser assembly for a gas turbine engine comprising, at least one reverser exit port, a door flap mounted on said engine that is hinged on the aft side of such reverser port, said door flap having side walls that extend into said port, a vane pack that is hinged to said engine proximate the forward side of said reverser port at one end thereof and has a roller attached to its aft end, said door flap having a roller track therein to receive said roller such that the vane pack is in slidable engagement at its aft end with said door flap, a boundary layer trip fence pivotably mounted on said engine forward of the mounting of said vane pack, said door flap and said trip fence opening to forward upstanding angles relative to said engine skin, with said vane pack extending across the reverser port and between said door flap and said trip fence such that gas flow turned into the reverser cavity within said engine, is directed by said door flap and its side walls toward and through said vane pack so that the door flap and trip fence, channel the reverser gas at a pitch angle, away from the boundary layer of said engine, while the vanes of said vane pack being mounted substantially longitudinally relative to the axis of said engine, are pivoted or pre-pivoted to provide lateral vectoring or splay of the reverser gas flow away from aircraft control surfaces which door flap, trip fence and vane pack are thus oriented at the desired pitch and splay angles to the exterior surfaces of said engine.
The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalty thereon.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a reverser flap assembly for a gas turbine nozzle, particularly one with pivoting members.
2. The Prior Art
Reverser flap assemblies for gas turbine nozzles are known in the prior art. See FIG. 1 hereof, and U.S. Pat No. 4,798,328 to Thayer et al (1989) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,828,173 to Guerty (1989), which are incorporated herein by reference.
Per FIG. 1, the prior art nozzle 10 has convergent flap 12 and divergent flap 14 pivotably mounted therein, which can direct axial gas flow through the engine when pivoted to an open position or as here, when convergent flap 12 is pivoted to the closed position, shown in FIG. 1, the engine core gas flow per arrow 15, is directed through the reverser channel 18 and out through cascade vane assembly 20, as shown in FIG. 1. A sliding door 22 slides over the cascade vanes when the reverser flow 15 is not employed, as indicated in FIG. 1.
As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, the individual vanes 24 and 26 of the prior art vane pack 20, are doubly turned to provide a relatively small opening 28, e.g. as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. This is because the cascade vanes need to perform the double function of a) reversing the engine jet flow against the direction of travel of an engine (and its aircraft). Also however., b) the vanes 24 of the cascade vane assembly 20 must also turn or splay the so reversed jet flow laterally and outwardly at an angle with the skin of the various aircraft components so as to avoid distorting the air flow thereover and also to avoid re-ingestion of such reverser engine core gas back into the intake of such engine or other engine.
However, this dual turning of cascade vanes 24 and 26, results in a relatively small or constricted air flow path 28 between such vanes, e.g. per FIGS. 2 and 3 hereof, which partially blocks the thrust of the reverser gases (gases 15 of FIG. 1) which requires the construction of larger assemblies of cascade vanes and impairs reverser thrust efficiency. Further, the so-reversed core gas flow, after emerging from the cascade vanes, can, in part, impinge on aft engine control surfaces, and can, in part, travel up the air frame boundary layer, over heating the engine skin, with a possibility of engine inlet re-ingestion of such gas.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,798,328 to Thayer et al (1989) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,828,173 to Guerty (1989), address the reverser problem by employing a plurality of cascade vanes, which pivot at the reverser outlet,adjacent the skin of such engine. There is no directing the reverser gas flow significantly away from the engine skin and its boundary layer, nor is there a teaching of applying lateral vectoring or splay of such reverser effluent away from aircraft control surfaces, which are important considerations in aircraft thrust reversal. That is, the above two patents disclose thrust reverser engines (with reverser cascade vanes) that have similar reverser gas boundary layer and impingement problems.
Accordingly there is a need and market to provide a thrust reverser assembly that largely overcomes the above prior art shortcomings.
There has now been discovered a thrust reverser assembly that provides an effective reverser exhaust path with sufficient pitch and splay angles and with reduced exhaust blockage in a compact package.
Broadly the present invention provides a nozzle reverser assembly for a gas turbine engine, which has reverser flaps comprising, at least one reverser opening in a side of such nozzle, a pair of fore and aft doors over said opening, having spaced-apart fore and aft transverse pivot axes, which doors pivot toward each other into closed position and which pivot away from each other into open position, in an angular upstanding reverser direction, to direct away reverser gas flow at a desired pitch angle from said engine, a swinging vane pack of spaced vanes, which pack is pivotably mounted to said engine between said doors at its forward end and near the fore door, the vane pack being mounted at its aft end, in sliding engagement with the aft door so as to be swingably mounted across the reverser exhaust opening, which vane pack has a plurality of spaced vanes which direct said reverser gas flow away from one or more aircraft components at a desired splay angle.
In a preferred embodiment said reverser door assembly is closable by a) the pivoting or swinging of the vane pack towards said engine, b) the aft door flap pivoting forwardly, to close over such vane pack and c) the fore or forward door flap (e.g. the boundary layer fence) pivoting rearwardly over the aft door, or at least over an aft door edge to present a near continuous engine skin when the reverser assembly is not in use.
In a preferred embodiment, a fail safe mechanism is provided for closing the above vane pack, aft door flap, and forward door flap in the event of hydraulic failure as more fully discussed below.
By "pitch angle" is meant an angle in the longitudinal direction of an engine or craft.
By "splay angle" is meant an angle in the transverse, lateral or cross-wise direction of an engine or craft.
The invention will become more apparent from the following detailed specification and drawings in which;
FIG. 1 is a sectional elevation schematic view of a prior art reverser assembly;
FIGS. 2, 3, and 4 are plan, end and side elevation views of the prior art cascade vane grid in the assembly of FIG. 1;
FIG. 5 is a fragmentary schematic sectional elevation view, including component linkage, of a reverser assembly embodying the present invention in an open position;
FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view of a vane pack embodying the invention, employed in the reverser assembly of FIG. 5;
FIG. 7 is an end elevation view of the vane pack of FIG. 6, taken on line 7--7, looking in the direction of the arrows;
FIG. 8 is a fragmentary perspective schematic view of some of the components of the reverser assembly embodiment shown in FIG. 5 and
FIG. 9 is a fragmentary schematic sectional elevation view of the embodiment of FIG. 5 (with component linkage) in closed position.
Referring in more detail to the drawings, gas turbine engine 50 has core gas passage 52, convergent flap 54, divergent flap 56, reverser passage wall 58 and reverser flap door 40, having side walls 43, which door 40 when open, defines with the wall 58, a reverser passage 45, as shown in FIG. 5. A vane pack 44 is pivotably mounted on the wall 58 at the pack's forward end 47 and has rollers 49 mounted in its aft end, as shown in FIGS. 5, 8 and 9. The flap door 40 has pair of channels 55 therein to support the vane pack rollers 49 therein, as shown in FIGS. 5, 8, and 9.
The vane pack 44 has a plurality of curved vanes 60 therein, per FIGS. 6, and 7, which vanes are mounted to splay the gas flow outwardly away from the aircraft skin.
A pivotable boundary layer trip fence 48 is hingeably mounted to the engine 50 per FIGS. 5, and 8. This fence 48 is linked to the flap door 40 to define therewith, a reverser outlet channel 57 per FIG. 5 and to pivot open and closed therewith, as indicated in FIGS. 5 and 9 hereof.
That is, pivot arm 70, on pivot axis 75, connects at one end by rod 72 with flap door lever 74, which connects in turn with flap door 40 per FIG. 5 hereof. The other end of pivot arm 70 connects by rod 76 with trip fence lever 78, which connects in turn with the trip fence 48 also per FIG. 5 hereof. Further, such arm (end) 70 connects by rod 77 with vane pack lever 46, which connects in turn with vane pack 40, also per FIG. 5 hereof.
An actuation cylinder 80 connects by piston rod 82 to the pivot arm 70, per FIG. 5, such that, when the piston rod 82 pushes on the arm 70, it will close the vane pack 40 up the channels 55, close the flap door 40 forward, toward the engine skin 84 and close the trip fence 48 rearwardly, so as to overlap the closed flap door 40, as indicated in FIGS. 5 and 9 hereof.
In similar fashion, when the piston rod 82 pulls on the pivot arm 70, it will cause the trip fence 48, flap door 40 and vane pack 44 to pivot in the reverse direction to the opening position shown e.g., in FIG. 5.
In operation, the gas flow turned into the reverser passage 45 by convergent flap 54, is guided further by the door flap 40 and is prevented from spilling laterally off such door by the sidewalls 43 as indicated in FIG. 5. The flow then enters the vane pack 44, with the vanes 60 oriented to direct the gas through exit channel 57 at the desired pitch and splay angles.
The boundary layer trip fence 48 prevents the hot gas, exiting the reverser at channel 57 from traveling up the air frame boundary layer so as to prevent external aircraft skin over heating as well as reducing the chance for engine inlet, re-ingestion of such gas flow.
When the reverser flow is redirected or cut-off, e.g. by opening the convergent flap 54, the swinging vane pack reverser embodying the invention is closed, as discussed above, (and shown in FIG. 9) by actuator 80, that drives the above described linkage, which is connected to the trip fence 48 and the vane pack 44. The trip fence stow rate can be adjusted, e.g. by changing the shape of the roller track 55 or the length of the pivot arm 70 as desired.
The flap/trip fence closure linkage shown in FIGS. 5 and 9 hereof, is a fail-safe closure mechanism in which air pressure on the speeding aircraft will exert a closing pressure on the trip fence 48, which in turn drives the linkage shown in FIG. 5, to close the vane pack 44 and the door flap 40, in the event of hydraulic failure of the actuator 80, as indicated in FIGS. 5 and 9 hereof.
Thus swinging vane pack reverser embodying the present invention provides improved performance over the prior art in several ways.
1) That is, the vanes in the vane pack of the invention are arranged louver style rather than in a grid style of the prior art, per FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, which grid style causes substantial flow blockage, due to dual gas turning, compared with the more open vane louver style of the present invention, e.g. per FIGS. 6 and 7.
Accordingly, the more open louvered vane pack design embodying applicant's invention, provides increased reverser thrust, e.g. from 5 to 10% or more.
2) The swinging vane pack 44 of the invention serves a dual purpose, a) the vanes of such pack are oriented to adjust the splay angle of the reverser gas in a desired transverse direction, away from the aircraft as noted above and b) supports the flap door 40 in the open position, e.g. per FIG. 5 hereof, against a high ΔP on the inner side thereof, indicated by arrow 41 in FIG. 5.
3) The above high ΔP of the exiting reverser gas, also aids in the keeping the trip fence 48 open, per vector arrow 51 of FIG. 5, against the onrushing air by the aircraft, per arrow 53 of FIG. 5.
Thus, the swinging vane pack reverser of the invention provides louvered vanes that permit lateral vectoring or splay of reverser gas flow, to prevent impingement of such flow on aircraft control surfaces. Meanwhile the flap door and trip fence of the invention direct the reverser gas flow forwardly but at a pitch angle, away from the aircraft skin surfaces.
In sum the flap door and trip fence provide the fore and aft or longitudinal component of reverser thrust vectoring, while the vanes in the vane pack, provide lateral vectoring of the reverser gas flow, for multi-directional reverser thrust control. That is, the concept of the swinging vane pack reverser embodying the invention, is believed a novel means for providing effective pitch and splay angles while minimizing reverser exit flow blockage.

is this alfalfa correct?
Hi folks,
Finally, my alfalfa meal arrived last night. It was brought to me by a friend who lives near Ludwig at Lemont. Anyways, when I opened it, I was a bit shocked because it was mostly powder. Is this the correct product? On the sack it says dehydrated alfalfa meal. Please see pic of the alfalfa meal below.
I have applied it to 4500 sqft now. 5000 sqft left. It was hard to apply because it gets clogged in the opening. I always have to dig the bottom part to loosen. And yes, the powder was flying everywhere. It was worst than CGM.
Also, before I applied it this morning, I searched our archives. Someone posted it 10 lbs/1000 sqft. Should I increase it?
You'll probably weather the storm - blow your nose - frequently; the microfine dust really gets trapped in your nose and nasal passages. Found that out when I pushbroomed all the dust, sand, and street dirt out the garage despite opening all doors for cross ventilation. Realized I should probably have been wearing a mask.
Northern IL should have its share of feed & grain stores that would carry the alfalfa pellets in 50# bags - infinitely easier to work with and broadcast by hand in the event they don't go through a spreader.
I used the alfalfa meal too for the first time and I have to agree. I looked like the Jolly Green Giant when I was done. If I would use AM againg I would use a drop spreader which would take quite a while on my lawn. As far a pellets is that the same consistency as rabbit feed?

Gaza food industry struggles from lack of electricity, fuel
Published Thursday 21/11/2013 (updated) 25/11/2013 09:39
GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- The food industry is struggling in Gaza due to the ongoing Israeli economic blockade and intermittent access to electricity, a factory owner told Ma'an Thursday.
"In light of regular power cuts, working hours have been reduced, and so the factory can't provide the Gaza market with the necessary amount of food," Mahir Alay said.
Facing issues such as lack of raw material, lack of fuel, faulty generators, and daily 12-hour-long power cuts, Alay said factories throughout Gaza have begun laying workers off.
"Production cost has increased, and so I have (been forced) to reduce the number of factory workers," he said.
Similarly, the director of production at a biscuit factory in Gaza told Ma'an that his factory has been unable to maintain market demand due to shortages of fuel and electricity.
His factory has been suffering financially as a result of dire economic conditions in Gaza.
Lack of diesel fuel is a result of the tightening of a 7-year-long blockade imposed on the territory by Israel with Egyptian support.
The Gaza Strip has been under a severe economic blockade imposed by Israel since 2006.
The blockade has severely limited the imports and exports of the Gaza Strip and has led to frequent humanitarian crises and hardship for Gazans.

You would have thought Iran, with it's 12 Sejil and 18 Ghadr missiles could divert some of it's own known biscuit factory capabilities. And fire off a payload of Iranian biscuits to the Hamas ruling class to eat, and sell on the black market.

I have no doubt the two new lion cubs Fajr (meaning dawn in Arabic, and also the name of the rockets fired into Israel by Arab from Gaza) and his sister Sijil, born in the Bisan amusement park in the northern Gaza town of Beit Lahiya, are not going hungry. The cub's parents were smuggled into Gaza four years ago through the network of tunnels from Egypt.

so according to the first paragraph, egypts blockade has nothing to do with this issue

Cannot find fuel to farm, but have fuel to launch missiles at the neighbors. Eventually Hamas will figure out only one of these activities grows food.

It's state-sponsored ATTRITION,knowing that black-marketeering will profit from human loss÷!

1- Negotiations, Compromise, and Peace is THE ONLY SOLUTION, and since None of these will be considered by the Hamas Government, 2- GAZA'S SITUATION IS ENTIRELY HAMAS' FAULT !!!
9 ) JoeUSA / USA
24/11/2013 00:41
Many average innocent Alis in Gaza , wish just to work and feed their kids. They are not Hamas , Jihad , Likud , Meretz, Israel Beytinu or whatever party you like. They cannot change their geopolitical reality. They are always the ones who pay the price of Israeli cruelty with the blood of their kids , their destroyed crops and destroyed homes. Give the Alis a chance to live. Only then there will be true peace.
10 ) JoeFattal / USA
24/11/2013 22:12
The Palestinians in Gaza are caught right in the middle between Israel economic blockade and Egypt internal turmoil. The blockade will never be lifted. And Egypt will be strict with the flow of the Palestinians to Egypt. But then in reality the situation might be better as it seems. By having Egypt stricter on their borders it will stop Israeli intentions to push the Palestinians to Egypt which I believe they intend to do it when or if they get through with Jerusalem and the West Bank.

The blogoshpere is booming with passionate and entertaining nurse bloggers. I've seen a few lists that compile the best nurse blogs or the top nurses to follow on twitter, pinterest, and even Google plus. However, I've never seen a single location where you can find a comprehensive list of nursing blogs and their social media accounts. It goes without saying that nurses who blog are also active on social media so why not get everything together in one location?
Nurses: Manage Your Schedule on Your Smartphone with NurseGrid
It seems like everything in healthcare has been improved by technology. Unfortunately, a few key processes are still stuck in the past. Nurse schedules are still primarily managed on pen and paper. Hospitals require all patient information be documented in an electronic health record (EHR), but for some reason making sure that there are nurses scheduled to care for those patients is a matter that hasn't, for the most part, been modernized. Fortunately, there's an app for that. The problems of nurse scheduling can be a thing the past thanks to NurseGrid.

Best Nursing Specialty For a New Grad
Finding the best nursing specialty as a new grad is a challenge.

It is a myth that new nurses have to work in med-surg before pursuing a specialty.

CRNA: Nurse Anesthetist Career Guide
Becoming a Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) is a career goal for many nurses. In fact, when I was in nursing school nearly half of the class stated that becoming a CRNA was their future goal. However, many nurses and nursing students are unclear of the process that must be followed in order to become a CRNA. In this blog post we'll discuss some quick facts about CRNAs, average salary, career outlook, educational requirements and resources (including guides for exactly how to become a CRNA). As a bonus we've also listed some cool gifts and items that show pride in the profession.
Let's Talk About Clinical Integration
Clinical integration is pretty amazing. It's not quite an ACO, yet allows a healthcare organizations within a community to loosely associate in order to provide better care for their patients. These hospitals and private practices agree to share data about the patients they care for with one another and agree to practice by defined health initiatives. It's a way to provide better care across the continuum and also allows for providers to increase their reimbursement.
This means more money coming into hospitals and physician's offices, which means they can hire more nurses!

There are many stylish and fashionable white nursing shoes available to fit any budget. Whether you want a simple clog or a set of sleek leather Mary Janes, there is something for everyone.

Box Office Preview: 'Noah' Prays for $35 Million-Plus U.S. Debut; Opens Strong in Australia
Testing the appetite for biblical spectacles, Darren Aronofsky's Noah begins rolling out at the North American box office Thursday night after months of speculation as to whether his darker take on the Old Testament prophet will turn off faith-based audiences.
Box-office observers are divided over the film's potential, although most believe it will cross $35 million in its North American launch in 3,400 theaters. Paramount and New Regency, which co-financed the $125 million-plus epic, are being more conservative, saying $30 million to $33 million.
PHOTOS: 35 of 2014's Most Anticipated Movies
The movie is off to a strong start in its first three international markets — Mexico, South Korea and Australia — where it has earned $18.5 million since landing in South Korea a week ago. South Korea's seven-day cume is $10 million, while Mexico's six-day total is $7.5 million.
On Thursday, Noah opened to a strong $750,000 in Australia, 20 percent ahead of Gravity. Aronfosky's movie opens in another 18 countries this weekend, including Russia.
The bigger player overseas will likely be Marvel and Disney's Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which opens in 32 markets, a week ahead of its U.S. opening.
Noah, starring Russell Crowe in the title role, is designed to play both as a mainstream tentpole and as a faith-based offering. Whether it can accomplish the latter in North America is the big question.
If it does attract the faith-based crowd -- a lucrative demo -- in big numbers, Noah could surprise. A potential competitor, however, is Christian film God's Not Dead, which opened to a stellar $9.2 million from less than 800 theaters last weekend. The film is expected to increase its theater count on Friday.
Paramount has gone to great lengths to appease concerns among religious leader and church organizations about the tone of the film. The studio agreed to tweak its marketing campaign in recent weeks to say that Noah -- which has a strong environmental component -- is inspired by the story of Noah and the Ark, versus being a literal retelling.
Overall, older moviegoers are expressing the most interest in seeing Noah, according to prerelease tracking. If that prediction holds, Paramount believes the movie will have strong legs, since adults tend not ot rush out on opening weekend. The film sported a 76 percent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes as of Thursday afternoon.
Noah also stars Anthony Hopkins, Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson, Ray Winstone, Logan Lerman and Douglas Booth.
The weekend's other new nationwide opening is the latest action pic from Arnold Schwarzenegger, director David Ayer's Sabotage. The poorly reviewed film is looking at a soft opening in the $6 million to $8 million range, generally in line with Arnold's other recent offerings.
QED International financed and produced Sabotage, about an elite DEA task force that goes up against a drug cartel. Sam Worthington, Olivia Williams, Terrence Howard, Joe Manganiello, Harold Perrineau, Martin Donovan, Max Martini, Josh Holloway and Mireille Enos also star. Open Road Films is distributing the film domestically.
Targeting Hispanics and union workers at the box office this weekend is Pantelion Films and Participant Media's biopic Cesar Chavez, which is making a more limited play. The movie, directed by Diego Luna and starring Michael Pena as the famed civil rights leader and labor organizer, is expected to earn $4 million.
America Ferrera, Rosario Dawson and John Malkovich also star.

TEHRAN - A senior Iranian cleric on Sunday dismissed talk of a military strike by Israel as empty propaganda, taunting the Jewish state for screaming "like a cornered cat" rather than roaring like a lion.Israeli media have speculated that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is seeking cabinet consensus to attack Iranian nuclear sites as Western diplomats say new evidence that Tehran is researching ways to build atom bombs will be published this week.RELATED:Barak: Sanctions can stop Iran, but no option off the table'World leaders must meet their commitments to stop Iran'Editorial: Iran in the mediaSome analysts dismiss the speculation as part of a strategy of psychological warfare to raise pressure on Iran and bolster a case for harsher international sanctions sought by Washington, rather than endorse or participate in military action."The recent threats of the Zionist regime against Iran are more for internal consumption for themselves and their masters who are struggling with the Wall Street movement," said Ayatollah Mahmoud Alavi, referring to anti-capitalism protests that began in New York and have spread around the world.

Relativity Media Acquires Jim Carrey Action Comedy LOOMIS FARGO
Relativity Media has acquired worldwide rights to finance, produce and distribute the action-comedy heist film currently titled Loomis Fargo, starring Jim Carrey, it was announced today by Relativity. The project, directed by Jared Hess (Napoleon Dynamite, Nacho Libre), is based on an original screenplay by Emily Spivey (Up All Night) and written by Chris Bowman (The Wrong Brother) and Hubbel Palmer (Humble Pie). The film is targeted to start production in North Carolina this April.
Inspired by true events, Loomis Fargo tells the story of a disgruntled bank employee who is ready to take a chance and risk it all for love, money, and a life he's only dreamed of. Teaming up with his work crush, they conspire to rob the financial institution. Together with their accomplices, the inexperienced criminals nab nearly $20 million - leaving a trail of evidence in their wake. Now the only thing tougher than pulling off the heist - will be getting away with it.
The project will be produced by Lorne Michaels & John Goldwyn. Danny McBride, Jody Hill, Michael Aguilar and Kevin Messick will executive produce alongside Relativity's CEO, Ryan Kavanaugh and President, Tucker Tooley.
Relativity's Brett Dahl will oversee the project for the studio.

Games I Played 2012: Episode 2- Infamous 2
By D_Bones 3 Comments
This series is because of the fact that as a student I have little resources to consistently buy new games and as such have felt left out (wah wah) as I never play enough current year videogames to create a proper top ten games of year list. So instead of doing that I am just going to talk about the games I played this year (whether from 2009 or 2012) in no rated order but simply in the order I played them.
Ok so despite the fact that almost all (with the exception of maybe two) of the games I'm speaking about are old news or not really relevant I will continue to share my year of gaming experience (even if no one reads it ha ha).
Infamous 2
Oh Infamous what an amazing series by one of my favourite developers (Sucker Punch). Sly Cooper and Ratchet and Clank were the cornerstones of my intermediate gaming life. As such when all of Sony's Big Three (Sucker Punch, Insomniac, Naughty Dog, I know Insomniac is going multiplatform with Fuse) moved on to the new generation and began releasing their hmm more mature games at first I was worried. Would the happy go lucky fun of yesterday go flying out the window? The answer of course was no, Playstation gamers got 3 brand new series which I thoroughly enjoyed. Resistance I spoke about in my earlier blog but is my favourite FPS series this gen which most people will not agree with and Insomniac continued the excellent Ratchet series. Naughty Dog gave us the adventurous Uncharted series which at first I did not get the acclaim after I played the first one but has steadily grown on me. Finally Sucker Punch followed up Sly Cooper with Infamous. The original Infamous I loved, the twist ending the amazing climbing and traversal, the stunts, the story and to some extent the characters.
While I never really loved Cole or Zeke as characters they have been a fairly solid duo for the extent of the three Infamous games (I'm totally counting Festival of Blood). I hated Zeke at first but his annoying commentary became occasionally funny and when I went into the second game was happy to hear him again. Cole in the second game got a new voice actor (I didn't really notice had been like two years since I played the first one) a slightly new design (SO GLAD they didn't go with the Drake look alike design) and new superpowers. I'll be honest and say Cole's interactions with his new female counterparts weren't great but then again him and Trish weren't really that special either. I actually found Zeke more bearable simply because of the fact that Nix was atrocious. I found her incredibly irritating and it didn't help that her powers were crappier than Kuo's. The power to lift stuff up and chuck it at people was pretty great. I found myself throwing cars whenever possible with a smile of absolute glee on my face as it exploded causing the enemies to fly away. I absolutely agree with Brad when I say the Icicle jump move was awesome and made travelling fast and fun (the best traversal move until I got bat swarm in Festival).
The story itself I found to be lacking compared to its predecessor. While Bertrand was an ok villain the creature he turns into looks absolutely ludicrous and obviously this series isn't about realism but a giant shrimp man isn't exactly frightening. As for the Beast, compared to Kessler and the twist about who he was I found the twist about the Beast (dunno if it was a twist maybe someone can explain) to be incredibly obvious. I mean of COURSE it's that other guy who came into contact with the Ray sphere and disappeared ominously. Also the seemingly arbitrary character decision swap at the end was bizarre I mean the Kuo and Nix switching didn't really make sense to me. Maybe you guys felt different but when I got to that part I was looking for like ten seconds going wait…did I miss something? Finally as far as the endings…well in either case it seems they really split the path so if there was a proper sequel (please Sucker Punch, although new IP first :D) it would start on different paths completely. Even though the "good" ending seems final…obviously it can be continued given the lightning seen at the end of the scene.
Trophies: So the first Infamous was my initial Platinum and started my whole crazy completionist trophy hunt. So the first game was a pain in that finding all the blast shards took forever and became irritating after awhile (GOD DAMN YOU LAST BLAST SHARD NOT ON MAP BUT ON BROKEN DOCK!!!) sorry… I still have leftover feelings about that. While that part was annoying the other trophies were fairly standard, encouraged you to play the game twice to see the different story beats (not majorly different but still) and use all the powers. The stunts in particular were a fun challenge even though some could get locked out if you weren't careful. So with the original trophy list in mind I collected Infamous 2's trophy list and found it not as challenging and sort of boring. No stunt trophies, you got a power to find all blast shards (which I liked but didn't make things challenging) and the general story trophies from last time. It was good that they had UGC trophies because otherwise I might have missed out on some decently made missions but the UGC thing isn't really my bag. I also liked the climb the fence trophy which shows that someone has a sense of humour at Sucker Punch. Typical trophies overall nothing very special.
All in all Infamous 2 was great mostly because it was more Infamous. It didn't really expand too much (although some of the nifty new powers were excellent) and the story paled in comparison to the first game but origin stories are easy, sequels are hard. I enjoyed playing through this game collecting everything and taking over New Marais which was a better city than Empire just in that it had more personality instead if just being a jungle gym. For me Infamous is about exploration, powers and a decent story it accomplished all of these to varying degrees and was a good sequel after I had been severely let down by Resistance 3. Thank you for reading, tune in to the next installment Twisted Metal!!!

Watermelon in hoophouse ?
Hello PNW gardeners
Has anyone in Zone 8 grown Watermelons in a hoophouse successfully ? I know there are obvious challenges like pollination & heat but I wanted to see if anyone has tried it and what the results were ?
Thanks :D
In our 4-H garden, we had Yellow Doll ripen without any protection. Accidently piled some darkish wood on the north side of the watermelons and they really warmed up.
This year we will use a small hoophouse, black plastic to warm the soil before putting in seedlings and use the dark wood once it gets warmer outdoors. The kids will start the seeds next week in a greenhouse.
Yellow Doll and another orange-fleshed small melon did well here several years ago with no coverings. Started indoors with heat. Planted out early June, ripened in late September.
These are the small "icebox"-type melons, the bigger stuff will likely need all kinds of coverings.
Cottontail melon did well.
I planted the heirloom variety in 2012 (doing again this year-13) right on the ground, uncovered and it gave 3 watermelons! I was told to get the variety called "Sugar Baby". Although it didn't ripe on the vine, I picked and left in the counter in my kitchen and in the end of Nov. beginning of December I cut it open and it was red, flavorful and filled with seeds :)

So The Southern Pretender posted something really stupid on the subject of race a few days ago.
From a feigned position of moral enlightenment (I once was blind, but now I see), Jack Hunter wags his finger at the opposition for… Opposing the narrative. Not surprising. I sincerely hope the donor money is worth all of the liberal toilet-licking this man indulges in.
The American "Conservative" thought Jack's article fit their "new generation" approach perfectly. Again, not surprising. The new generation is bad and should feel bad.
Hunter's article begins with a rather blatant strawman:
Over the last week, many conservatives seemed to be unified around one narrative: Race or racism had absolutely nothing to do with the Michael Brown and Eric Garner killings, the protesters had simply made it such and this led to the tragic murder of two New York City police officers
