Anyway, now that's out of my system & the world hasn't ended (my apologies to those suicide cults...), The movie runs for 2 hours & 30 min, plus the previews. It's defiantly NOT a kids movie, but I'm surprised you hated it so much Shu. I guess it helps if you were a fan growing up.
I personally am hoping to see it again, a exceptionally rare occurrence, considering I'm pretty much in a constant state of broke. I'm lucky to see a movie when it comes out, usually it has to be really good to make me see it at the cinemas, but I wanna see this one again!!
The Madman previously known as Daniel219
Wish I could get on here more often. *Sigh* The down side to night shift...
Hmmm... I'm a little late on this. (I saw it a few days after it came out, but I just forgot where this sub-forum was)
Well, comparing the Transformers movies, they're completely... different.
Of course. That's obvious. It's kinda like comparing one Transformer's series to the other.
I liked it, in my opinion. Hear me out before you start bashing.
Sure, it's filled with bad jokes. Sure, it's filled with action where you can barely tell what's going on... but... consider this:
If by chance they used no jokes that was common to these days...
If by chance they used no cultural snippets at all...
The fact is, if they studied our culture before they landed, they would take what they want and keep to it. To say that jazz wouldn't say "b*tches" or that bumblebee wouldn't piss on someone is just ridiculous... how the heck would you know?!
If you were a person who was landing on earth and could record all of the data of histories into your head and see what the culture was right now, considering the fact you know nothing of this place: How would you know you'd still choose who you are now?!
Exactly, I doubt a Transformer would LOVE to be you. (in most cases)
Now, I know a bunch of cheap jokes were dropped into this... but what were you expecting?! Michael and Steven working together doesn't exactly equal "truly genuine comedy"!!
What did you expect the same old cheesy jokes that were used back in the old days of Transformers??
Well, you could say that these are OUR day's cheesy jokes.
So you didn't think it was funny when Optimus Prime said "World Wide Web" or "eBay"... so what?! If you didn't think it was funny, don't laugh. The fact is, they DID use such things and it would be the EASIEST and most CONVENIENT way of researching their way through!
Couldn't tell who was hitting who in a fight?! Let me ask you this:
If you saw two giant machines battling it out in melee, would you really be able to tell which steel-colored steel arm was hitting the other steel-colored steel's face???
Right, it wouldn't exactly be easy to tell.
The fact is, it came out in Hollywood. You should've expected it and came to see the parts that weren't "tainted" for your own pleasure. It's a movie, darnit. If you really wanted it to stick to the old-school ways of Transformers, then beg and donate money to previous creators of any of the series! Or make it yourself.
In my opinion, I'm glad they didn't twist it into a completely horrible movie! They tried their best to make sure it wasn't COMPLETELY Hollywoodized! They tried their best to make sure that the Transformer-fanhood would enjoy it... what they didn't consider is that some of these people didn't grow up to logically know what to expect.
I know most of the people here enjoyed it, but for those of you who didn't enjoy it:
Give it another chance. Just at least agree that "it's not as bad as it could've been" and you'll see why it was a great movie.
having to wait until about a month ago in S.A. for the movie, lucky B*****ds.
I watched the movie and did enjoy the humour, I for one recall the first animated movie that was released in 1986, when the autobots & deceptacons
crash land on earth while fighting in a spaceship.
now how many people grew up in that time? we are all fans of the tranformers franchise so you cannot tell me that you are not a fan.
Wait, wait, wait... Before anything else... I'm bothered and I want a confirmation... Transformers is an anime??? HUH???
i'll choose to love whoever i wish to love and nobody can stop me from doing so ----
edited from SamBakZa.net
The original movie is something to be remembered. If you have the extra $20 go pick it up its been digitaly remastered and it looks great! As for the new one it was a great movie as well. I'll buy it when it comes out, but nothing can compare to seeing Optumus Prime drive through a group of decepticons, ignite his jets, and shoot while flying upside down, then he lands and shoots the rest of them that are still standing. All the while your hearing the song The Touch by Stan Bush which is a classics hold up your lighter song. In my ipinion the 80's movie is better out of the two.
The original Transformers was a very cool Anime. In fact, Optimus Prime's Japanese name, if I remember correctly, was "Convoy", with his more recient versions being called things like "Super Convoy", "GalaxyConvoy" & various other things like that. I just prefer "Big Bot" .

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- The Need for Thorough and Effective Policies and Procedures Whethere an advisor is SEC or state-registered, RIAs must revise their policies and procedures to address significant compliance problems occurring during the year, changes in business arrangements, and regulatory developments.
- U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Information This information sheet contains general information about certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and selected rules under the Advisers Act. It also provides information about the resources available from the SEC to help advisors understand and comply with these laws and rules.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Wednesday approved sweeping proposed new rules and amendments to existing rules designed to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act regarding improving the regulation of credit rating agencies.
All five of the SEC Commissioners approved the proposal, which is out for a 60-day comment period. SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro (left) called the proposal "massive."
SEC Commissioner Luis Aguilar noted during the open meeting that the "many components" of the SEC's proposal address a "broad array" of nationally recognized statistical rating organizations' (NRSROs) conduct, including:
- a requirement that policies and procedures for ratings methodologies be documented and that they be approved by the NRSRO's board;
- the requirement for an annual report to the Commission regarding the effectiveness of internal controls over the ratings process;
- enhanced disclosure to ratings users about the methodology and assumptions underlying a rating, the quantitative factors affecting the rating's reliability, and the findings and conclusions of any third-party hired to provide due diligence regarding an asset-backed security;
- the explicit separation of sales and marketing personnel from the production of credit ratings;
- the requirement that NRSROs review ratings activity involving an employee who subsequently leaves to work for the issuer, underwriter, or sponsor of the rated security and disclose the results of this review; and
- enhanced public disclosure of the performance of ratings.
Aguilar said that the "financial crisis that still affects the lives of many Americans exposed serious shortcomings in the performance of NRSRO ratings." In response, he said, "Congress included provisions in the Dodd-Frank Act to strengthen the regulation of NRSROs and to provide the users of credit ratings with additional disclosures."

In our view there are few more pleasant ways to spend an afternoon than to go to the races.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
The Gretzky of Gretzky collectors
Alberta man is selling his hoard of Great One memorabilia, which could fetch millions
FORT MCMURRAY, Alta. -- It started almost two decades ago with a $20 hockey stick once wielded by a forgotten player for a string of mediocre teams.
It ends this week when millions of dollars are likely to change hands as what may be the world's largest game-worn collection of memorabilia from the world's best player from the sport's last great dynasty goes on the auction block.
Shawn Chaulk, a quick-to-smile former Newfoundlander whose hoard of everything Wayne Gretzky makes grown men weak in the knees, says it's all been nothing more than an attempt to get closer to the game he loves.
"When you're a fan, fans are usually at a distance," he recently told The Canadian Press in the basement office of his home in Fort McMurray, Alta. The space is a forest of game-used Gretzky hockey sticks, a dressing room of game-worn Gretzky jerseys and a trainer's bag full of assorted pucks, gloves, helmets and skates -- all touched, used and sweated in by the Great One himself.
"You love the game. You love the athletes, at a distance. At best, you get to attend an event and see them in person. Again, from a distance. And that's as close as we get.
"This was all to help me get closer to the game."
Just a few items from the hundreds in an online auction, which begins Friday through Montreal's Classic Auctions:
- The puck Gretzky shot to score his 500th goal, as well as the jersey and skates he was wearing at the time.
- Battle-scarred gloves and helmets worn during Stanley Cup victories and regular-season tilts that live still in copper-and-blue hearts.
- Skates replete with scuffs and repairs.
- Gretzky's early-1980s Oilers Nike track suit.
- A No. 99 practice bib.
- A Gretzky-used equipment bag.
After the giant auction, Chaulk will still own some impressive items that drip with hockey history. He's not selling:
- A stick from Gretzky's first pro team, the World Hockey Association's Indianapolis Racers, on which the equipment manager stamped the name "Gretsky."
- The jersey Gretzky wore during the entire 1981-82 season in which, as an Edmonton Oiler, he compiled more than 200 points and broke Phil Esposito's scoring record of 77 goals in one season.
- Replica Stanley Cups once owned by former Oilers owner Peter Pocklington, much-reviled for trading Gretzky to the Los Angeles Kings in August 1988.
- The jersey Gretzky wore the infamous night in April 1986, when, in a division final against arch-rival Calgary Flames, Steve Smith scored on his own net to eliminate the Oilers from the playoffs.
Although he's played sports all his life, Chaulk, 45, didn't grow up as the kid with the biggest bag of marbles on the block. He didn't start collecting anything until he was in his 20s -- and then it involved golf.
Before long, and as his contracting business prospered, Chaulk was dabbling in harder stuff: signed photographs, prints, jerseys.
Then one afternoon he was in an Edmonton pawn shop, looking over some more cards. He spotted an old hockey stick hanging on the wall. The man behind the counter told him it had been used by Wayne Presley, a journeyman NHLer for five teams between 1984 and '97.
"I didn't realize you could put your hands on that type of thing," said Chaulk, awe still in his voice more than a decade later.
"I didn't know it was available to the fan. And there I am in a pawn shop and there's a game-used stick there.
"I asked to see it and held it and went 'Wow! Will I ever get closer to the game?'
"I spent my $20. That was my first piece of the game."
But not his last. Chaulk moved on from Presley and decided to focus his collection on Gretzky. If game-used sticks were available, he wanted them from the more illustrious Wayne.
Chaulk now has more than 100 sticks that once hit the ice in the hands of the Great One: Titans, Eastons, wood and aluminum. They cover his entire career -- from the 1977 world juniors to his last NHL game on April 18, 1999, with the New York Rangers.
The final step in Chaulk's full-blown collector's bug came in 2005, when a major Gretzky collection hit the block.
"I saw, in one single auction, the amount of stuff that can surface from a single player. That was the turning point for me. I knew I wanted to collect game-worn equipment and that would be my focus."
Chaulk bought a jersey at that sale and hasn't slowed down since. He began buying at other auctions and slowly networked himself into a community of like-minded souls who would get in touch if they ran across something they thought might interest him.
Persistence helped.
"Once I get something in my mind, there's no stopping me," Chaulk laughed. "Ask anybody that I've acquired something from who didn't truly want to give it up. I am a hound."
Acquisitions came so thick and fast Chaulk jokes that his wife Tanya is on a first-name basis with all the local couriers.
The collection has been a big part of his life and Chaulk speaks with great fondness of the friends he's made among fellow collectors. He's got a great story about filmmaker Kevin Smith calling him up and asking if he could buy a stick, which ended with Chaulk hanging out with the celebrities at the Sundance Film Festival, while Smith used a borrowed stick as a prop onstage.
A note of reverence creeps into Chaulk's voice when he talks about the day his collection was visited by the man who, literally, created it. Gretzky was appearing at a function in 2011 where Chaulk had his collection on display and the two took some private time to walk through it.
"I'd tell him where the sticks came from and he'd smile and react accordingly. And then, as we moved through the collection, he realized the magnitude of what I'd put together and it was just absolutely surreal to walk the collection from end to end and discuss the pieces with him. In terms of collecting, it don't get any better. That's beyond my wildest dreams as a collector.
"That's way closer to the game than I thought I'd ever be."
Why sell, then?
Insurance is a big reason. Collections such as Chaulk's are hard to buy coverage for and the thought of a fire makes him blanch.
Also, he's already got most of the main Gretzky items likely to come on the market, so the thrill of the chase is getting rarer.
"There's not a lot of chase left. It's like I've gotten to the top of the mountain.
"I have the memories. It's maybe time to spread it out a little bit."
He's pretty casual about what he thinks the sale might bring in. He claims not to have a figure in his head and doesn't keep a database of what he paid for the items.
Still, consider just the sticks. The cheapest one is worth about $2,500 and the most expensive about $20,000. There are plenty leaning against his wall that sell in the neighbourhood of $9,000.
Chaulk has more than 100 sticks.
The Wayne Gretzky of Wayne Gretzky collectors knows his trove won't stay together. It'll get parcelled out to collectors around the continent and, probably, the world.
He just hopes that whoever buys the items lets people see them. He shudders at the thought of someone cutting up the jerseys and selling them piece by piece, which happens.
"That's sick. We just cringe at that."

Very easy access and great location close to most everything.
The best location you can get in South Beach! Walking distance to everything very easy to get to from the airport! Recommended to three friends already.
Everything was perfect for two couples. The size and location. The place is located in the heart of south beach and is close to everything ( beach, parties, stores, restaurants). Everything was clean and we had no problems. I recommend this house for sure! Thanks Laura!!!
We very very very love this place! It's warm like home and the location is good. Not far from the beach, around 10 mins walk. So it's quiet at night. And you dont worry about parking.That's great! I definitely recommend this wonderful apt.
great location, lovely place, nicely decorated. the host was gracious and communicative. would definitely recommend!
Our stay was fantastic. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and very conveniently located. This is a great option for anyone looking to experience Miami without going the traditional hotel route. The apartment is walking distance to the beach, bars, shopping, and a Whole Foods. The neighborhood is safe and quiet as well.
A huge shoutout to our host, Laura, who made our stay even better. She was easy to contact and very accommodating. I had a mishap with the keys on our first day (my own fault) and Laura was incredibly helpful in sorting it out. Thanks Laura!
Nous sommes une famille de 5 personnes et avont passé un merveilleux séjour dans l'appartement de Laura, il était exactement comme sur les photos et idéalement placé à Miami Beach à 5 minutes de la plage! L'appartement etait propre, très bien équipé et suffisamment spacieux pour nous cinq. Laura n'était pas en ville à ce moment mais elle a toujours été tres rapide à répondre à nos mails. Bref nous conseillons énormément cette appartement si vous cherchez un logement au rapport qualité/prix imbattable et au cœur de Miami Beach!
The location is great, 5-10 min walk to ocean drive and the beach, 25 min walk to Lincoln road, the area is very nice. The house is just as pictured although it needs a bit of upkeep (faucet in the kitchen is very hard to turn off, window in the bedroom doesn't close properly, lever on toilet flush downstairs has fallen off, etc.). The housekeeper was very nice but unfortunately the floor was not very clean.
That said we still had a lovely stay, and communication with the host was excellent. she was also great at helping us borrow a babycot.
Great location, very close to the beach and semi-close to Lincoln road and a grocery store. The apartment was very nice and spacious for four people. The walls are paper thin though, you can hear everything from the apartments next to it and outside. Gladly, the neighbors didn't disturb us much and especially during night time it was quiet. The host answered quickly to any questions we had and the instructions on how to get to the house and everything else were very clear and easy to follow.
There were some minor things that could've been improved, such as the kitchen faucet, the toilet flush thingy downstairs was broken (but still usable) and the floors weren't very clean when we arrived. Also a minor thing, but the kitchen chairs are very uncomfortable. We had a great stay though, and we would definitely recommend it, and would stay in this apartment again!
The apartment was greatly situated, just a few minutes walk from the beach. Laura was very responsive. The only minor gripe was the AC which was somewhat noisy.
Umsögn fyrir
Laura and her friend stayed with us in mars.They were extremely friendly and nice. They were tidy, fun and great guest's that I would be glad to see again. I can certainly recommend them. Best regards Laufey
Laura and Brandon stayed in our apartment for several days and they were great guests! I didn't get to meet her in person due to unforseen circumstances but communication was perfect before and during her stay and they left the apartment clean. We look forward to her return and meeting her in person! Highly recommended to all!!
Laura was a fantastic guest! It was a great experience and she also shared her knowledge in hosting her appartment in Miami for 2 years. My condo was left in tip top condition and Laura was also very organised and was great with communication.
kindness, a natural grace,to name a few, she just has this richness of spirit, i´m just so thankful for her. She´s just a beautiful soul like one our favorite song said,right my friend. She will be one of the nicest person you´ll ever meet and do business with. As far as the studio, its just too cute, clean, well decorated, she put a lot of thought into her design, its a perfect hotel room, key location, there is just no goin wrong when you choose it.
I've stayed at Laura's studio in Miami many times, it's a great location in South Beach, very clean and she is wonderful to deal with, definitely a great deal.
Laura stayed with me through AirBnB in June. She was a great guest; easy to coordinate with, fun to talk to, respectful of the apartment, neat & tidy. I really couldn't have asked for a better AirBnB experience. I hope one day I have the opportunity to stay at her studio apartment which I have heard wonderful things about.

Hi, can anyone give me some info about the DVD series please. I would love a copy to inflict upon my daughter but while the telltale site says its region free, all the other sites with copies (like amazon or ebay) claim its region 1.
Living in the UK this obviously is a bit of a bugger, but who do i believe? (a daft question to be asking on Telltales own forum methinks) The DVD machine and TV can handle NTSC with no probs but i don't have a multi region player soooooo if i fork out for a region 1 NTSC boxed set i'm screwed but if its region free NTSC all is good.

Hey, nice stems. These stunning freshly picked stockings from Wolford are like a field of gorgeous blossoming graphic poppies. The stems read like mod striping on the leg, and the beautiful blooms at thigh height can be your little secret (or you can give someone a peek at the whole bouquet, your call). We love how playful these are, and think you will too.
Fit Notes
May We Recommend?
These classic, sexy stay-ups, with their wide lace band and 20 denier (sheer enough to show off, strong enough to resist runs) are sort of the Goldilocks of thigh-highs.
Though we most certainly love being naked, sometimes being just almost naked is even better. When that's our get down, we always reach for these gloriously sheer stay-ups.

A team of federal, state and local cybersecurity experts is looking for partners to develop an IT asset management system that can help the financial services industry protect its critical IT gear from electronic attack.
According to a May 6 notice in FedBizOpps, the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) are seeking collaborators to provide products and technical expertise in creating a model, standards-based system that financial services companies could use to integrate existing asset management technology, hardware and software support, and IT security into a single system.
NCCoE is a partnership among NIST, Maryland and Maryland's Montgomery County that facilitates the rapid adoption of standards-based cybersecurity solutions for business and public organizations using commercially available technologies.
IT assets in the financial services industry range from company smartphones and laptops to major database and network servers. Managing those assets is a complex task that goes far beyond keeping track of where they are, the FedBizOpps notice states. Software -- both operating systems and programs -- must be kept up-to-date, and organizations must be able to rapidly and seamlessly respond to new threats from malware or cyberattacks. An IT asset management (ITAM) system is the answer to those challenges, NIST officials said in a statement.
NCCoE is looking for technology vendors interested in working on a "reference design" to demonstrate how companies can tie their existing data systems for physical assets and IT into a comprehensive ITAM.
Details of the challenge are outlined in a recently released ITAM "use case" -- a tool software engineers use to define a system's functional requirements.

Hey All,
I am making a recipe right now for an Imperial Brown Porter. I have finished with the recipe and am working on the water adjustments in Bru n Water. I am going for the black malty profile but because of my grain bill I am having to really bump up the bicarbonate levels to get a pH that's about 5.2/5.3.
My level of bicarbonate (which I intend to get from pickling lime by adding about 3 grams) is at about 240ppm (Alkalinity 198 and RA 133) which gives me a pH of about 5.3 according to the spreadsheet. Recommended for the profile is 155 ppm.
I have been poking around and can't seem to find anything about off flavors and bicarbonate levels so I am wondering if there might be some from going this high on the bicarbonate? I just have found that one should not go over 250ppm.
What is your pH without all that bicarb? Are you starting with RO water? Are you concerned with Alkalinity or bicarb specifically because Pickling Lime is not bicarbonate, it's CaOH which will certainly increase your alkalinity.
I can't imagine having to add that much alkalinity to get your pH to 5.2/3, you would have to be starting out in the mid 4.0's,
pH without is 4.9. I could use chalk but it doesn't diffuse as well which is why the lime. I am not using RO water but my water is very soft where I am so only about 27ppm in my base profile
I am mainly concerned that if I have that much alkalinity and bicarbonate that it will produce some sort of off flavor.
In Bru n water pickling lime increases the bicarbonate level which is why I am referring to it that way
Pickling lime doesn't add bicarbonate but it does add alkalinity. I can see why one might thing it does though. If you add 1 mmol/L lime you will increase alkalinity by 2 mEq/L or 100 ppm and if you use the approximation that 100 ppm alkalinity stems from 61*100/2 bicarbonate you will conclude that bicarbonate has gone up by 122 when in fact the only increase in bicarbonate will come from conversion of carbonic to bicarbonate because of the increased pH.
Neither bicarbonate nor lime should add any flavor from anions but they will, of course, add calcium in the case of lime or sodium if you get bicarbonate from sodium carbonate or bicarbonate. At mash pH most of added bicarbonate will be converted to carbonic and any added hydroxyl from lime to water.
Bicarbonate doesn't taste very good as you can determine by adding some sodium bicarbonate to a glass of water and tasting but keep in mind the conversion to carbonic at mash pH and also that there will be quite a lot of bicarbonate in your beer from conversion of the CO2 you use to carbonate it. In the matrix of beer it doesn't seem to taste that bad - I think because the pin-prick of the spriziness offsets it.
Adding alkakinity to mash or brewing water is tricky. Chalk, as you have noted, dissolves slowly, reacts more slowly and the calcium in it offsets it's alkalinity somewhat. In the lab I have added chalk to mash and seen the pH drop! The same is true with the calcium in lime: a mmol of lime does not give 2 mEq of alkalinity but perhaps 70% of that. A mmol of sodium bicarbonate does give a meq of alkalinity but it also gives a meq of sodium.
I'd be a bit cautious about adding a lot of alkali to your mash without testing first e.g. making a mini mash and measuring its pH with a decent meter.
I guess I should just stick to the bru n water profile as closely as possible. I actually don't have a pH meter right now so I am just assuming that bru n water is correct. Guess that might be a bad idea? Putting as much alkalinity in as I have actually didn't impact the calcium too much. I am at about 90ppm on that.
There are two parts to predicting mash pH:
1. The model - how you think malt behaves when subjected to acid or alkali
2. The data you put into the model: the numbers you must put into the model to accurately describe the particular malt you are using.
The models in current use aren't spot on because they don't allow for the fact that mash pH drifts over time. If you tell me a spreadsheet predicts a mash pH of 5.2 my question, being the wise guy I am, would be 'When?'. If it's 5.2 at dough in it may be 5.3 10 minutes later and 5.4 20 minutes after that. In addition to that many of them do not recognize that the buffering of malts changes with pH i.e. they are not linear and many of them assume that they are.
Finally, none of them have measured the malts you are using but have rather assumed parameters based on someone elses measurements of a different bag of malt at some other time. Thus there are lots of sources of error. In many cases the models predict mash pH quite accurately (if the time of measurement is chosen just right) and in other cases they don't. By all means use these models to alert you to the fact that alkali is going to be needed but only trust a pH measurement to confirm that you have added the right amount.
I assume you must be starting with a very low alkalinity water, like RO? 3 gm of lime seems like a lot, but I don't know the batch size. You mention this is an Imp Brown Porter, so I guess this has a lot of crystal malt and a decent amount of roast malts. Those factors can push the mash pH down when coupled with a low alkalinity water source. I'm hoping that you aren't simultaneously adding an acid to the mash, since that is counterproductive to producing a desirable mash pH in this case. A mash pH of 4.9 to 5.0 is quite possible, as I've done it with some of my brews (I have to use RO water to brew with).

I actually generally don't have any problems brewing any kinds of beers. I recently started doing water adjustments to try to improve the quality of my brews. I made a RIS and used the bitter profile from Bru'n water. I just tasted it and it was very astringent. I am thinking that this is either because i was pulling from the bottom of the keg and getting some sediment or because my mash pH was too high and it extracted tannins. I don't think it was due to over sparging as I am pretty good with that.
Thus, the only thing I can relate this to is possible that I added too much alkalinity to the mash and that extracted tannins. I guess I am just trying to not do that again.
I did recently just get a pH meter so I will actually be able to really test it. I think I will just stick with a low bicarbonate level and see how that goes since my normal water.
I'm hoping that you are only adding alkalinity to the mashing water and only to the degree absolutely needed to raise the mash pH into the range you want. I'd suggest a range of 5.4 to 5.5 for a darker beer so that the desirable roast character is extracted from the roast grain. If you are using that tap water with its natural low alkalinity, then there is little chance of drawing tannins out during sparging unless the temperature is too high and the gravity of the final runnings is too low.
With that fine tap water, don't be too surprised if the mash pH does drop lower than you want with a RIS grist. If you have a calibrated meter, I suggest that you add all your mineral additions excepting any alkalinity-increasing minerals and mash as usual. Check the mash pH after about 5 minutes and see if it is low. Then you can decide how much of that alkalinity dose you want to add. I used to be skeptical in the dose that the program calculated, but it has proven correct so far. One thing that AJ pointed out while we were working with Palmer on the Water book, was that lime is not always 'pure'. Sometimes there are impurities or the calcium hydroxide may have reacted back to its chalk form. In any case, Bru'n Water assumes that your lime is pure. That means that you are less likely to overdose the mash...but I strongly recommend that a brewer should ALWAYS err on the side of adding too LITTLE alkalinity than adding TOO MUCH alkalinity. The flavor penalty for low pH is much less severe than with high pH.
Thanks Martin that makes total sense. I actually recently just got a pH meter and will be using it on my next brew which will be a dark beer. It makes sense to add the alkalinity after the mash has started. I am curious if I should even be using lime or if I should use chalk because it's less impactful on the alkalinity? Also, when taking a pH reading I am assuming I want to keep as much grain out of there as possible, no? Thanks for the help.

Let's start by watching sunrise when you are swimming in one of the world's most beautiful beaches. I will take you around the most liveable city in Vietnam and tell you why it deserves the title. We will take a short trip to Hoi An in the afternoon before enjoying the night of Da Nang
My name is Thinh, a student of Da Nang University of Technology. I was born and has been living in Da Nang for over 20 years. My city's beach is one of the most beautiful beaches all over the world.
I'll pick you up at 7:00 at your hotel and start our trip.
It will be a perfect morning waking up to the sea breeze in this peaceful city. You can take a walk along the beach, watch the wonderful dawn and then take a swim.
After that, we will have breakfast. You will taste My Quang which is one of the most special dishes in Da Nang city.
A traditional breakfast in Da Nang will never complete without a cup of Vietnamese coffee. The way we drink coffee is different any other places in Vietnam.
While enjoying coffee, you can see the daily life of the most livable city in Vietnam.
After charging the energy for our trip, we will travel to Linh Ung temple which is located in the Son Tra Mountain. Here, you can see the statue of Buddha overlooking at the sea and the statues of 18 Arhats. From this height, you can take a complete view of the whole city below.
go ahead and we can come to the hundred year old banyan tree
We will then have lunch with special barbecue at Goc Nuong restaurant to prepare for the afternoon trip to Hoi An ancient town.
Hoi An is an old town which still preserves the ancient architectures of Vietnam. You can walk along the old streets where the dust of the motor does not exist.
In addition, I will show you the costumes of the ancient Vietnamese, you can buy it like a souvenir or give it to your friend. Your friend will love this special gift.
In the evening, we can join the ancient games such as "beat the pot"
Before coming back to Da Nang, we will have dinner and take some photo in Hoi An at night.
Da Nang at night is so beautiful. You will watch the city and the beautiful river at night. Da Nang is known with the famous bridges across Han River, especially the rotating bridge across the Han River, walking on one of these bridges in the evening is an interesting experience.
After all, a cool coconut in the evening is such a great choice to end the night.
My name is Thinh, a student of Da Nang University of Technology. I was born and has been living in Da Nang for over 20 years. In my free time, I usually play sport such as football, basketball or listen music, read book. I also travel and take photo with my friends in the public holiday or vacation. I'm so friendly and really want to get new friend.

"Entertaining but not hard hitting"
entertaining, interesting, funny
I say this as a definite Fox-hater and as a progressive: Joe Muto is kind of a prick.The book IS entertaining - the most interesting parts are learning about the working mechanisms of Fox News. It was fascinating to hear how low-budget the whole operation is, as well as the thought processes behind Fox's program development.But Muto himself comes across very smug, ingratiating, and immature. He has to remind the reader constantly about his true liberal feelings the whole time - we get it. He pretends to have been doing his own "small part" to influence the network, I guess to justify his working there, but all his actions (including the Gawker mole business) are petty - sarcastic jabs and pranks. And what did his sex life with his apparently crazy girlfriend have to do with being a "liberal in the Foxhole?" The integration of his persona into the memoir smacked of self-applause and opportunism undeserved of someone who obviously took his former employer's opportunism to heart - garnering himself notoriety and a book deal with minimal journalistic payoff.That being said, it's still an engrossing, lighthearted read and, you know, a good jab at O'Reilly and Fox inanity. Just take Muto with grain of salt and don't expect it to be an expose.

Wonderful outdoor setting. Nice tour. Beautiful grounds. Great music!
Vague policy about bringing food in to picnic - many people had brought food in coolers even though the policy said no outside food which is why we didn't bring anything. A shame, as that would have made it that much more memorable!

"Love Scene" is the first of the three songs on this release, and it establishes a mood like the alternative soundtrack to an early Michael Mann film. The slow gyre of volume in the song gives it a disorienting feeling, like being in some labyrinthine American version of an underground European dance club an hour before sunrise. The title track is reminiscent of vintage Giorgio Moroder making '80s disco music, but with the cheese replaced by a tinge of urgency. With the "Interlude" pieces linking the three songs, Dark Water feels like it was conceived as a cinematic piece of music. Closer "Mémoire" sounds like a resolution to the action and allusions of the first two songs. In the rippling duskiness of its dance-music leanings, Dark Water is aptly titled.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
11 Feb 2012 13:36 GMT | Arts & Culture, France, India
Alex Gibney's Client 9 documents the dramatic rise and fall of Eliot Spitzer, a New York district attorney turned governor who was widely considered a future presidential candidate.
Spitzer was on a mission to expose the recklessness of Wall Street top dogs like AIG and Merrill Lynch, long before the global financial meltdown laid them bare.
Nothing could stand in the way of his one-man crusade against greed and excess. Nothing, except for his Achilles heel – a fondness for glamorous ladies.
In 2008, Spitzer's White House ambitions were spectacularly dashed when he was found to be "Client 9" in an action brought against a prostitution ring.
Could this have been a conspiracy forged by corporate fat cats and canny politicians?
Gibney talks to Amanda Palmer, Al Jazeera's head of entertainment, and the FPS audience about what happened when he delved into this shady world of financial excess, political intrigue and eye-popping scandal.
Despite the toll taken by years of conflict, Beirut is still affectionately regarded as the Paris of the Middle East – a sophisticated and progressive cultural capital that is striving to recover from its tumultuous recent past.
Unsurprisingly, the Lebanese are fond of a bit of escapism when it comes to television, and lightweight soap operas are a favourite.
But a new internet drama called Shankaboot, about a scooter-riding delivery boy and his friends, has captured the imagination of nearly half a million viewers.
Using a fresh, natural style that young Lebanese are lapping up, it also explores previously taboo themes like drug use, sex trafficking and domestic abuse.
Riding the wave of the Middle East internet boom and a recent International Digital Emmy, the Shankaboot team now have their sights are set on a full-length feature film.
Bollywood Posters
Traditionally, India's blockbuster films were advertised using giant hand-painted posters which adorned walls and cinemas across India. Artists worked closely with film studios, using black and white stills to come up with brightly coloured scenes and characters, large enough to be seen from a distance.
But by the 1990s, the painters were fighting a losing battle against digital photography and printing. Today, although art galleries are snapping up vintage works, poster artist are sadly a rare breed. FPS's Sapna Bhatia reports.
Cave of Forgotten Dreams
In Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Werner Herzog's first 3D film, the legendary German director contemplates the wonders of the Chauvet cave in the south of France. Discovered in 1994, the caves house the oldest examples of human art ever to be discovered.
The 32,000-year-old wall paintings and their pristine surroundings are so delicate that mere human breath can cause catastrophic damage.
The film crew's access was limited to just four hours a day for six days, using minimal lighting and keeping to narrow walkways.
As the caves are now closed to the public, this could be the world's only chance to share the experience of this awe-inspiring time capsule.
This episode of The Fabulous Picture Show can be seen from Friday, April 29, at the following times GMT: 1930; Saturday: 1430; Sunday: 0430; Monday: 0830.

New Found Glory is an alternative rock band from Coral Springs, Florida that has grown to become one of the United States' biggest alternative rock acts since forming during the genre's prime in 1997. Drawing influence from the punk revival acts of the 1990s as well as from hardcore punk, New Found Glory manages to synthesize the best aspects of both styles into a unique brand of pop punk that almost guarantees growth in the band's already substantial fan base. Having since released seven studio albums in addition to countless tours and live performances, New Found Glory has been a proven commercial success for over a decade and its popularity only continues to grow stronger.
