A countdown to the end of days?
Published: Saturday, December 31, 2011 at 1:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 31, 2011 at 1:57 p.m.
Recently I read that the lamp has been lit for the countdown to Dec. 21, 2012, near Mexico City. That's the date the Mayan calendar ends, and some believe it will signify the end in one form or another.
This reminds me of the madness on the advent of 2000 — remember? All computers were going to crash, satellites would fall from the heavens, folks waited atop buildings, etc etc. Sorry, I slept and woke up and worked on my computer.
Then I remembered, "OMG, it was supposed to crash!" Naw, it didn't. And I was so looking forward to a new computer.
Now back to the Mayan calendar. The article explained the Mexican tourist officials are expecting tens of millions more tourists to visit the shrine. Wow, that's great news. My only thought: If Dec 21, 2012, is the end, why would it matter how much money these folks spend? Am I missing something here? Guess we will have to wait for the rest of the story.

Comment: Here are my findings -- along with this article -- from a conversation I had with someone that was pro-union. I believe in right-to-work states and the benefits that ultimately arise from those states.
Unemployment numbers in right-to-work states vs those that are not; 6.9% vs 8.7%, respectively. According to the Census Bureau, from 2004-2011 the poverty in right-to-work states increased at a rate of 20.1% while the average forced unionism state's poverty rate increased by 23.4%.
According to a National Institute for Labor Relations study, showed the following: Percentage Growth in Real Personal Income (1999-2009)
Right-to-Work States 28.3%, Forced-Unionism States 14.7%, National Average 19.5%. The same study also showed that the Cost of Living-Adjusted Per Capita Disposable Personal Income (2009); Right-to-Work States $35,543, Forced-Unionism States $33,389, National Average $34,256.
This piece of legislature is just one more thing that can be scrutinized and bashed by the Liberal party in Michigan since Rick Snyder has took office. To that end, it is also one more thing Rick Snyder can look back to and say "I told you so" when it proves to be positive for the state's economy. All of his hated fiscal policy decisions have lead to the turnaround of the Michigan economy. As a former resident of the state of Michigan, I am happy to see said turnaround.
Comment: This is definitely a time to purchase a home. However, even though a mortgage payment might be less expensive than a rent payment. Overall, the cost of owning a home will be higher than renting per month. Utilities will be higher in a home as well as regular maintenance. You also have to include homeowners insurance on top of your mortgage and util bills. People purchase homes as investments, correct?
The question becomes, do I invest in something that will have a negative, little, or no return over the next 5 years? Let's say you purchase a home that was valued at $300,000 in 2007. Last year the asking price was $200,000. Last week it dropped down to $180,000. SO, now you buy, right? But what if the housing prices fall another 15% in 2009 and 10% more in 2010? Then it hits rock bottom and levels out in 2011. How long will it stay stagnant? For simplicity we'll say 1 year. Now you're 3 years in and have lost 25% in home value. Now it will take an additional 2-3 years to regain that value and on top of all that you've been pissing away money in interest.
It's definitely the time to buy or is it?
Comment: Are you kidding??? First off you need not be an expert to look at factual, historical evidence where this type of spending does not work. Every time the government has interfered with the economy it has failed. Read my blog to see why. http://viewpointsandopinions.wordpress.com/
I suggest you check your "expert" economist sources...
Comment: Let me preface my statement by saying I am not an investor but am interested in getting into commodities sometime over the next few years.
We will definitely see gold move higher over the long term. It seems that the trend of gold over time has been that of a positive. Has it fluctuated? Yes, however the stability of gold seems more than that of any other commodity worth investing.
I really think now is the time to buy crude oil. If I had several thousand to invest, crude oil is where I'd put it to make a good return over the next few years.
Comment: Let's just spend our way out of a recession...Recommend

Penrith Farms's curator insight, April 1, 12:43 AM
Intense article and right on the money. I like his comments about cultural critics. I don't like the idea of people defining exactly what one is supposed to dress like, and what movies they should watch if they are "adults." I know a 50 year old that went to Twilight, I don't think enjoying a movie targeting juveniles should define them but that is just me.

Rooting before cutting.
Sorry for the very silly question, but I just can't remember. What is the type of propagation called where you first apply rooting hormone to a branch in order for it to grow roots prior to taking a cutting?
Here's my two cents! When you apply the cutting in rooting hormone, you still have to plant it into soil. I did a clematis by layering last year. It is small now and I've got it started on a trellis. Don't I have to cut it from the orginal plant? Do I do that just by shovel prunning it?
No, you do not 'shovel prune' it. You need first to ascertain that it has actually rooted. Since it is still attached to the parent there is no way of knowing if it is growing on its own roots or not yet. You need to poke about carefully where it is in the ground and see if it has roots. Only then do you cut it off its parents and dig it up carefully to transplant if you need to. But don't do it now. Wait for next spring.

To determine the differences in competitive fitness among Escherichia coli strains with different plasmid profiles when grown in suspension with commensal faecal bacteria from growing swine fed chlortetracycline-supplemented or unsupplemented diets.
Methods and Results
Five multiple drug-resistant (MDR) E. coli strains that possessed 0, 2, 6 or 8 plasmids were inoculated into anoxic faecal cultures from swine fed an unsupplemented (control) or chlortetracycline (50 g ton−1)-supplemented (experimental) diet. On days 21 of chlortetracycline supplementation, faecal growth competition studies were performed. MDR E. coli were enumerated at 0, 6 and 24 h. The plasmid-free strain was below culturable limits in both the control and experimental cultures by 24 h. For each plasmid-bearing strain, there was no statistically significant difference in population CFU ml−1 (P < 0·05) between the control and experimental cultures.
There was no significant effect on the faecal microflora, owing to the inclusion of chlortetracycline, in the swine diets, that affected the growth of E. coli in the competition studies employed. Furthermore, these results suggest that the cost of maintaining plasmids in these E. coli strains had little influence on survivability.
Significance and Impact of Study
Mutations that led to antimicrobial resistance may have a greater impact on survivability than multiple plasmid carriage.

text: Animal Kingdom Afternoon Once my friends dropped me off at Animal Kingdom, I headed straight for Expedition Everest. I was meeting with my friend Nicola later that afternoon, but she was still having lunch and would be around shortly. So I used the single rider line and only had to wait about 15 minutes! I wasn't sure how much longer it would be til my friend showed up so I didn't want to do another ride or a show. I walked the Maharajah jungle trek and took some more pictures. I also bought some Beauty and the Beast vinylmations, since I collect those. I ended up getting a variant! If you don't know about vinylmations, the variants are super rare. But it was a character I wasn't really into (one of the Bimbettes that follows Gaston around), so don't judge me - I ended up selling it on eBay... for over $100! So I'll use that money to buy the ones I really want like Belle and the Beast. Around 1:30 I met up with my friend, and we headed for the safari. It was drizzling very slightly, and the animals weren't super active, but we did see some cool stuff... the elephants were splashing around in the water and the male lion was actually standing up! It started raining really hard as soon as we got off the safari. We were trying to get to the Nemo show, as I'd never seen it before and was curious. Even though it was 10 minutes before showtime the theater was full already - I'm guessing a lot of people ran in there when it started to pour. So instead we went to meet Mickey and Minnie at their new meet and greet in their safari gear! I don't have a pic right now since I'm still waiting for my photopass disc. Then we decided to stake out spots for the parade, since the rain had stopped and that was something else that I'd never seen. It was definitely cute, though it didn't blow me away or anything. I'm not super into the parades but I'm glad I got to see it once, and we had a pretty decent spot. We poked around one of the gift shops for a little while, and then it started to rain again. Nicola had to leave, but I made my way over for the 5:00 Nemo show. This time I was earlier and got in! The musical was cute, and some of the songs were pretty good - others were very cheesy, but hey, that's Disney! I rode Everest again, and then decided to do the Safari one more time since I can never get enough pictures of the animals. The rain was still drizzling very slightly, so the safari was pretty empty. The guy told me I could have a whole row to myself, which I was excited about since I wouldn't have any heads in my way on either side! And then when it showed up there was no one else immediately there, just people still coming down the ramp, so I hopped in and the CM said, "Take her by herself and go!" and that's how I ended up with my own private safari ride! The empty car behind me: It was beyond cool. Since I was the only one there she stopped for every animal we saw and asked me if the angle was good for pictures, and pulled up more if I needed her to. It was such a cool moment. The lion was back to being lazy: After my private safari I went back to Animal Kingdom Lodge, but this time I got off at Jambo House for my dinner at Boma! On my way I stopped to look at the animals again (of course), and saw them feeding the giraffes: I'll write more about it in my dining review, but the meal was pretty incredible. A buffet is a nice type of meal to do by yourself, because there's no sitting around and waiting. I had a glass of wine and tried a bit of almost everything at the buffet. The soups were probably my favorite, but it was all great. And I finally got to try a zebra dome! Here's a glimpse of my dessert plate: Then it was back to my room to get some rest before heading out to Epcot the next day!

The European Union will imposed retroactive duties on Made-in-China solar panels and Chinese firms that export the PVs if proven that the panels were sold below production cost because of subsidies.
Member-states also approved on Wednesday the European Commission plan to require the registration by owners of all solar panels exported from China in a bid by the bloc to have more oversight over the $27-billion import market.
Because of the size of the market, politicians warned that it could escalate tensions between the EU and China which is the bloc's second-largest trade partner, and possibly lead to a trade war.
The EU probe is the result of a complaint by European solar panel manufacturing companies that they are suffering financial losses because of the dumping of cheap PVs made in China. In 2011, about 21 billion euro worth of solar panels and components were exported to Europe.
However, solar installers in the bloc warned that up to 242,000 jobs are at risk over three years if the EU would imposed a 60 per cent duty on Chinese PVs. Germany-based Prognos, an economic research organisation, estimated that 115,000 jobs on the first year of implementation would be lost if the duties would be 20 per cent but it could rise to 193,700 jobs if the duty would be at 60 per cent.
Prices of the PVs made in China are up to 45 per cent lower compared to those made by European companies

In the case of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, it is important to remember that civility is not a sign of weakness. Throughout his tenure, he has maintained the highest standards of decency and decorum in the face of undue provocation from a biased Opposition. In a coalition set-up, the Prime Minister's hands are tied. It is in this light that Dr. Singh's rare remarks must be seen. His outburst against the BJP's prime ministerial candidate was spontaneous, not intentional or deliberate.
When Atal Bihari Vajpayee handed over Pakistani terrorists to secure the release of the air passengers held hostage in Kandahar, no one called him a weak Prime Minister. When he was forced to reinstate controversial Defence Minister George Fernandes, no one laid that charge upon him. Nor when he was forced by his Deputy Prime Minister not to sack Narendra Modi as Gujarat Chief Minister.
Capt. T. Raju (retd.),

About سوري
سوري Although it is an exact duplicate of the animation.
سوريا المغرب So as far as I am concerned Sigma Six gets a thumbs up from me!
All Namekians born from the villain in Dragonball were not named after instruments Piccolo, Drum, etc. The antagonists are commonly characters who have betrayed the protagonist or their organization, or who has the most impact impeding their progress. But the anime got to the point where action scenes were starting to get spaced out very thinly in order to make more episodes. سوريا المغرب They don`t look pure energy like they are in the anime but just like slow motion fire.
سوري Now�for the bad� While the show stays true to the manga, that`s all it really is. ..
سوري Like having Ang Lee directing the Hulk. The villain Freeza originally Friezer comes obvious, and his brother Cooler and their father King Cold. Originally airing in the United States in 1996, its initial run was heavily edited from the Japanese version, so much that out of the first 68 episodes, the American version was cut down to 53 episodes, 15 episodes worth of content. سوريا المغرب Even the filler episodes, which plagued Part 1 for nearly 3 seasons and have not also been known to kill anime i. e. `Inuyasha`, haven`t been too bad in Part 2.

I have a mapper whose output is mapped to multiple different reducer instances by using my own Partitioner. My partitioner makes sure that a given is sent always to a given reducer instance. What I am wondering about is if for some reason, input data is skewed and i get, say, a million records (more precisely, #records can not fit into memory) for a particular key, is there any possible way in which reducer will still work fine? I mean, is the hadoop iterable that is passed to reducer a lazy loader?

The only practical limit to the values associated with a Reducer is free space on the local disks, both Map and Reduce side. This can be managed by adding more nodes and thus more Map/Reduce tasks, depending on your skew.
So yes, the Iterator loads the values from a combination of memory and disk.

Li Tieguai
|Li Tieguai
Zhang Lu's painting of Li Tieguai, early 16th century
|Traditional Chinese
|Simplified Chinese
Li Tieguai is sometimes said to be the most ancient and popular of the Eight Immortals of the Taoist pantheon. He is sometimes described as irascible and ill-tempered, but also benevolent to the poor, sick and the needy, whose suffering he alleviates with special medicine from his gourd. He is often portrayed as an ugly old man with dirty face, scraggy beard, and messy hair held by a golden band. He walks with the aid of an iron crutch (t'ieh kuai) and often has a gourd slung over his shoulder or held in his hand.[1] He often is depicted as a clown figure who descends to earth in the form of a beggar who uses his power to fight for the oppressed and needy.[2]
The legend says that Iron-crutch Li was born during the Yuan Dynasty period (1279–1368),[3] and was originally named "Li Yüan". However, in folklore he is depicted as Laozi's disciple, which would claim him to be a figure of the 6th century BCE.
The Eight Immortals became immortal deities through the means of Taoist religion. Within the myth, they lived on an island paradise called Penglai Shan, found east of China, which only they could traverse due to the "weak water" which would not support ships. Among the Eight Immortals, Li Tieh-Kuai was one of the more popular, and was depicted as a man leaning on crutch and holding a gourd. Some say that in the myth the "gourd had spirals of smoke ascend from it, denoting his power of setting his spirit free from his body."[4] Others say that the gourd was full of medicine which he dispensed to the poor and needy.[1]
Li studied with Lao Tzu (founder of Taoism). He is said to have renounced material comforts and led a life of self-discipline as an act of religious devotion for 40 years, often going without food or sleep.[1]
Li Tieh-Kuai, in the beginning of his Taoist training was said to live in a cave. He was said to be a handsome man. Lao Tzu tempted him with a beautiful woman he had made of wood. After refusing to acknowledge the presence of this woman and therefore defeating his temptation, Lao Tzu told him of his trick and rewarded him with a small white tablet. After consuming this tablet, Li Tieh-Kuai was never hungry nor ill.[5] Lao Tzu again tempts Li Tieh-Kuai with money. Some robbers had buried money in Li Tieh-Kuai's field without knowing he was watching. Lao Tzu approached him in disguise and told him he should take any money that came to him. After Li Tieh-Kuai refused, saying that he did not care if he remained poor his whole life, Lao Tzu rewarded him with another pill. This pill bestowed upon Li Tieh-Kuai the ability to fly at amazing speeds.[6]
Before becoming an immortal, it was previously stated that Li Tieh-Kuai was a very handsome man. However, on one occasion his spirit traveled to Heaven to meet with some other Immortals. He had told his apprentice, Li Ching, to wait for seven days for his spirit to return. If he did not return by then, Li Ching was to burn the body because that meant that he had become an immortal; but after six and a half days the student had to go home to see to his sick mother one last time before she died. So the student cremated the body of Li Tieh-Kuai. The student passed a dying beggar on his way to his mother's but did not have time to bury him.[7] Upon returning, Li Tieh-Kuai's spirit found that his body had been cremated and had to enter the only body available at the time, the corpse of the homeless beggar who had just died of starvation. The beggar, unfortunately, had a long and pointed head, large ears with one large brass earring, a woolly and disheveled beard and hair. He also had long, scraggy, and dark eyebrows, dark eyes, and he had a pan lid on his head and a lame leg. Lao Tzu appeared and gave him a medicine gourd that could cure any illness and never emptied. Li Tieh-Kuai then brought the apprentice's mother back to life using the liquid from his gourd. Li Ching was then dismissed as his student, after being given a small pill and being told that he would work hard enough to become one of the Immortals himself. This turned out to be true.[8]
"The gourd served as a bedroom for the night and held medicine, which Li dispensed with great beneficence to the poor and needy."[1] Lao Tzu also used the bottle to make him an iron crutch that would never rust nor break.[9] He then told Li Tieh-Kuai that he was ready to join the Immortals. From then on, Li Tieh-Kuai was charged to cure the sick and he traveled to many lands and "could be found wherever the sick lay dying or the poor were persecuted."[10]
Religious influence[edit]
Probably the second most popular of the Eight Immortals, Iron-crutch Li is associated with medicine. His symbol of an iron crutch still hangs outside some traditional apothecaries. One of the reasons for him not being extremely popular is due to his "renowned bad temper and eccentricities."[10] Sometimes, the non devout seek out prescriptions from him through certain Taoist priests. His magical, medical gourd is his more popular sign which is favoured by professional exorcists. As a beggar, he uses his form to "fight for the rights of the poor and those in need."[10] "He is very much a clown figure and his popularity rests upon the twin attractions of being seen as one of the downtrodden, who is really more powerful than the strongest, and the clown who is irascible."[10]
The Eight Immortals are examples of how all can obtain immortality. Most of the immortals (including Iron-crutch Li) were common folk who attracted the attention of the gods through suffering unjust treatment, without complaint, and gave more to others than themselves. They were admitted to eternal life as a reward for their acts on earth and bearing gifts to Shoulao, who is the god of long life.[11] "The path to immortality includes achieving physical and spiritual harmony through meditation, diet, exercise, breath control, and the use of herbs. To achieve this state, one also had to eliminate all disease and evil from the body and spirit".[3]
His characteristic emblems are the gourd bottle which identifies him as one of the Eight Immortals and also his iron crutch. A vapour cloud emanates from the gourd, and within it is the sage's hun (soul); which may be depicted as a formless shape or as a miniature double of his bodily self.
Modern depictions[edit]
In the television show Jackie Chan Adventures, Li was shown to be the Immortal who sealed away Bai Tza, The Water Demon.

FIFA President Sepp Blatter said that Iranian exile groups have threatened to disrupt the Iran-U.S. match on Sunday in Lyon, according to USA TODAY's Fred Coleman. Blatter refused to "comment on possible groups involved or actions contemplated," and he "expressed confidence" that French police could handle any problems (USA TODAY, 6/18). OTHER NOTES: In N.Y., Michael Starr writes that while ABC Sports is "happy" with its 3.1 average rating for three games, spokesperson Mark Mandel said that the U.S.'s Sunday game "could determine how the network fares for the rest of its World Cup coverage." In other news, Univision is more than doubling its ratings in the N.Y. market with its Cup coverage.

Days after being critical of the Congress high-command's decision to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh, Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy on Thursday said options needed to be exercised with caution.
Speaking to Rajya Sabha TV in the context of hopes on a viable solution, he said, "No match is over until the last ball is bowled."
"Sharing of water is going to be a major issue if the State is separated. We already have enough issues with Tamil Nadu and Karnataka and we are talking about another boundary. All the river water control boards have failed miserably," Mr. Reddy said quoting the Cauvery and Punjab Accords.
"We have a lot of problems which need to be addressed. Key issues include the capital city, power and water sharing," he added.
Lakhs of businessmen and professionals shifted from Madras to Kurnool and then to Hyderabad in 1953 with the hope that it would remain the permanent capital. They have huge stakes in the city, he said.
"Besides, we made it the educational, medical and IT capital of the State. We also have a peculiar recruitment process. We need to think of solutions before thinking of division, and definitely not after that," the Chief Minister added.
On power issues, Mr. Reddy said, "Telangana produces half the power it consumes. Once all the lift irrigation schemes in the region, which are mandatory given the low levels of water source, the region requires 175 million units per day for 4 to 5 months each year. There will be a huge displacement of people in both the regions if we go ahead with the decision now," he said.
