Jay Leno Should Retire So Conan O'brien Doesn't Walk.. Leno has had his time, let coco have his.
I loved last night when Conan said, "Kids, you can do anything you want to do, unless of course Jay Leno wants to do it too"
nah let conan walk. jay leno keeps his time and Jimmy Fallon moves up would be a much better move IMO
Leno should retire simply because he just isn't funny.
Be careful what you wish for, friend, 'cause I've been to Hell, and now I'm back again- Steve Earle
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.-
Albert Einstein
"Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -- how passionately I hate them!"- Einstein, again
I don't watch any of these guys. There is still better stuff on cable if you search hard enough and don't mind being edumacated a little.
Conan can't leave. Hairspray sales would plummet, markets would crash, Ozone would regenerate. It'd be chaos.
And it might actually make a space for something worth watching.
NBC is in love with Leno. This will be the second former Late Night host they have alienated in favor of Leno. Conan and Dave should join forces to create a Leno/NBC killing machine.
I dont watch either cause leno isnt funny and I get up too early to stay up for Conan. But I agree that Leno needs to let it go cause Conan is way better
I don't watch any of them. I'd rather watch reruns of "Two and A Half Men" after the news.
Jimmy Fallon is not funny. It makes me mad watching him. Leno needs to retire. Conan just needs more time to get his ratings up like Leno had.
Hopefully they'll both leave so it'll cause a nice financial blow to Comcast (who bought out NBC).
Anything to hurt Comcast is OK in my book.

Cochran: Land given to city from Trace will boost Natchez
by MBJ Staff
Published: August 11,2014
Tags: butch brown, city of Natchez, Congress, Delbert Hosemann, federal government, Gregg Harper, land, Mary Risser, Natchez High School, Natchez Trace Parkway, Natchez Trace Parkway Conveyance Act, National Park Service, property, real estate, Senate, Thad Cochran, U.S. House of Representatives
NATCHEZ — U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.) says the citizens of Natchez will benefit from the culmination of a legislative effort he started to convey surplus federal property from the Natchez Trace Parkway to the state of Mississippi.
Cochran joined Natchez Mayor Butch Brown and other officials for a signing ceremony at which Natchez Trace Parkway Superintendent Mary Risser, on behalf of the National Park Service, formally returned approximately 67 acres of surplus federal property to the State of Mississippi. Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann accepted the quitclaim deed for the state.
"The conveyance of this property is an example of federal, state and local governments coming together to benefit Mississippi," Cochran said. "With this land transfer, the city of Natchez will now have an opportunity to utilize the 'bean field' property to meet the community's needs. The state will also have a property that it can use for purposes that benefit the state and this community."
The signing ceremony culminates a legislative effort launched by Cochran during the 112th Congress to authorize the transfer of the surplus property to the state of Mississippi and city of Natchez. Cochran reintroduced the Natchez Trace Parkway Conveyance Act (S.304) in the 113th Congress and that bill was signed into law on Sept. 18, 2013. Approximately 37 acres adjacent to Natchez High School, known as the "bean field," would be allotted to Natchez for community use. Under the law, the state would hold title to 30 acres, known as the Feltus property.
Cochran undertook the land conveyance effort at the request of local leaders. The senator thanked U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) for cosponsoring S.304, and credited Congressman Gregg Harper (R-Miss.) for shepherding the bill through the House of Representatives. The National Park Service supported the transfer, which involved property supplied by the state that was not ultimately required to complete the Natchez Trace Parkway.
The law (PL.113-35) also adjusts parkway boundaries to include approximately ten acres of NPS-owned land along Liberty Drive to State Highway 61/84. This adjustment was requested by the National Park Service.

Rather they are the results of systemic injustices."

Congrats on launch! I've had the game since it was in the Groupees BaB, and even the alpha version I played was pretty damn good. Looking forward to playing it now that it's done!
Description says it is like Rogue. If it is not generating levels, then it is nothing at all like Rogue.
I am glad I did not buy until Iread the comments now. I would have been really Object off if I would have found out that it is just a random level selector.
F--king kids now adays cant get anything right. Anything pixelated automatically gets called 8 bit.... Even if it is a 64 bit sprite using a 256 bit color pallet.
Dev really needs to remove rouge fror the description, this is false advertizing.
First thing anyone relates to Rouge is random level generation. Not random level selection.
"Rouge" isn't in the description. I don't see "rouge" but you obviously do, so why don't you point it out to us. Why would anyone relate rouge to random level generation? Cosmetics have nothing, as far as I can tell, to do with this (great) game.

Yuck.... there's not much good to say about this product.... way too shimmery, too sticky, messy, just not impressed. Would never get this again.

I don't think High Beam deserves the hype. The color is too frosty for medium to dark skin tones, or anyone who likes their highlighters to give them a warm glow. The texture and staying power is great, and the packaging is cute, but I recommend Benefit's warmer shades - like Moon Beam or Sun Beam - for everyone except the palest skin tones.

High Beam is a very pretty pale neutral pink. It makes my face look so radiant and nice. I feel happier just wearing it. I do wish it were in a pump style bottle though but I'd still repurchase it. I have also tried Boots no7 pink highlighter and would say this one is better, even if its double the price. I apply it along my cheekbones, down my nose, and on my browbones. Theres no scent and it lasts long.

My favourite highlighter- great tone, perfect amount of sparkle, good texture, blendable etc. Only grumble is the high price.

Big fan of this. Have also used Mac's Strobe Cream but you can't control the amount like you can with Benefit. Lasts in the bottle AND on your skin for a very long time. Nice dewy glow. Pat it on after your foundation and blusher and you're set to go. For more honest reviews, 'like' Face Up To It on Facebook, Twitter @YoCalliss, yocalliss.wordpress.com. Thanks :)

Great product for my nw10 skin!
Gives a gorgeous highlight, the packaging may seem off putting but it is very easy to use!
Only problem is I have to apply it before foundation or it eats my foundation away :c

Let me start off with, I truly enjoy and like this product but there are some pros and cons to this. The pros are that its a liquid, so its very easy to blend and I would prefer a liquid highlighter over a powder one. Cons, the price. The bottle is $26 (Sephora) and that seems like quite a bit for just a highlighter. Yes, the bottle is big but face it, are you really going to use it all? Even though it is liquid which is what I prefer over powder, if you are on a budget, I do not reccomend.

I really did not like this highlighter at all and am glad I only had a sample that came with a blush.
The first few times I tried it, I would dot this along the top of my cheekbone using the tip of the brush applicator then use only my ring finger to dab it along and blend it out. No rubbing at all, just stippling. What I ended up with was most of the pink pearlescent colour on my finger, and only a little colour with LOTS of glitter particles on my cheekbone. Over the next few days I tried the same method with different foundations, powder, no powder, bare skin etc underneath. Always the same result - no glow, lots of glitter.
Then I gave up on fingers and tried blending it out with a stippling brush instead and got the same result. I've tried patting it on with the flat edge of a blush brush, a flat eyeshadow brush, an eyeshadow blending brush (stippled and also swirled on). Nothing will make this highlighter work for me, I always end up with most of the glowy product on whichever tool I used to apply it and a bunch of glitter on my face.
Now I stick with powder highlighters - much less work than cream or liquid highlighters and I've yet to come across one that has glitter in it like High Beam does. With a powder, I can use either a brush or my finger and it always glides on, blends easily and glows like it's supposed to.
It's fine, it's exactly like a nail polish bottle. It's translucent so that's good, you'll be able to see when you're running out. It also looks like it would be very easy to carry with you for touch ups. I got a sample size which is exactly the same as full size packaging, except for the container itself (sample is plastic, full size is glass). I didn't use this long enough to find out how easy it is to get product out once you're running low.
Looking at the websites of Benefit and department stores where this is sold, yes it does seem like an expensive product. But you only use a tiny amount each application so I assume it will last you for an extremely long time and the cost per use would be minimal.
I found this to be like a cream, not liquid or runny at all. Dries in a reasonable amount of time so you don't have to blend in a panic (I'm looking at you, liquid stains & tints). Not sticky once it dries. No issue with this moving foundation or powder around when applied on top. No issue with applying this to bare skin (just moisturiser or sunscreen, no makeup).
Very pearlescent pink. I wouldn't recommend this for very warm toned skin, or any skin colour over medium. This suits pale skin very nicely.
I personally found that this didn't wear well. While it "stuck" to my base product of choice when first applied, it just wore off as the day progressed. What little colour I had faded to nothing throughout the day, and the glitter particles fell down my face. It looked like a cloud of glitter came along and rained on my cheek.
My issue with High Beam is the product does not do for me what it is supposed to. I didn't get any sort of glow from it, I just got glitterbombed. If you really want to try this, get a sample first and be prepared to try different application methods. Also be prepared for the harsh reality that this cult fave just might not work for you.

well, smallville is a type of show that i would certainly watch at home. I think that they roles that they have are alright, but some needs to be changed. however, the more you see it , the more you will get to understand what goes on. Throughout the show i realized that Clark is the main character and he sometimes needs help. That's not what goes on though. If people would just look at him and at least try to understand him, it would really help out the him and the show alot. Anyway, i was just trying to get people to understand the show. For example, many of the characters aren't fully understood as i would say it. Read more

Making senses: an enactive approach to interaction
The enactive movement of philosophy of mind hinges on the idea that our understanding of the world is based on our bodily interaction with the world. This idea - that we are embodied actors making sense of our surroundings directly through our actions and experiences – moves away from more traditional views of cognition. In enactivism, knowledge is constructed through sensorimotor interactions: sensorimotor skills must be acquired by active, self-initiated exploration.
In what way do sensorimotor contingencies shape our interactions, particularly when interacting with the virtual rather than the real? Can we learn new sensorimotor skills that can replace or even augment our existing senses? What is the role of neuroplasticity in interaction? And can this be harnessed in order to create more useful and meaningful interfaces? This talk will explore the current evidence and suggest avenues for exploration.(more...)
Stochastic Sampling for Signal Reconstruction, Integration and Representation
I will summarise my understanding and analysis of two classes of problems whose manifestations are encountered across various engineering disciplines, including branches of computer graphics and vision. The first of these two classes, which I will allude to as "the reconstruction problem", involves hypothesising functions over multi-dimensional domains given a limited sets of observations (or samples) of the functions. I will motivate a 'gray-box' analysis technique [1] for light transport simulation, which exploits knowledge of the underlying physical (optics) processes.
The second type of problem is numerical integration, using evaluations of the signal (integrand) at stochastically determined locations. I will present results of my 'black-box' analysis [2,4] of numerical integration for potentially high-dimensional, non-stationary, discontinuous integrands. These analyses do not make any special assumptions about the processes that the integrand stems from.
In addition to the above, I will also briefly present some work [3] on using stochastic sampling to build alternative representations for images which lend themselves to targeted applications such as user-assisted soft-selection in images.

Should I Reply to this Email? Email Response Patterns as a Function of Inbox-level Cues
A common view of the email problem is that of email overload - a situation in which inboxes are full to overflowing, leaving the user feeling overwhelmed. Research has shown that rather than process their inbox in the order in which messages are received, people prioritise the order in which they deal with emails. Gmail priority inbox, VIP lists, etc all assume that people have too much email and that the triage process needs to be supported - that is, people need help quickly identifying the relevant email in their inbox to process. However, even after finding relevant email, we know that people sometimes choose to defer processing it. Previous research has made use of lab-based studies, ethnographies, diary studies and natural log analysis to shed light on the factors that influence how users prioritise emails for processing. However, each of these methods have limitations: lab studies are rather artificial; ethnographies and diary studies lack quantified measures and rely on participants having insight into their own behaviours; and whilst natural log analysis enables us to identify patterns they can be difficult to interpret. In this talk I will describe two in-the-wild experiments conducted in participants' own inboxes that systematically investigate the factors that influence how people prioritise their emails for processing.(more...)
Augmenting Communication with Multimodal Interaction and Flexible Interfaces

Peer-to-peer finance: Design rhetorics and the limits of financialization
While information and communication technologies (ICT) have from their earliest days been applied to banking and financial processes, the convergence of emerging ICT innovations and social media data-sharing practices is yielding a transformation of financial processes at the individual and local levels. The prevalence of mobile systems, advanced peer-to-peer cryptographic tools, and innovations in technological and financial literacy practices are enabling experimentation driven by a broad range of ideologies and business models. Citizens taking up social media's tools and practices may be on the brink of transforming the financial system by demanding greater transparency, enabling peer to peer assessments of risk and return, and challenging top-down corporate financial information flows; or they may simply be generating data for the benefit of globalized financial institutions.
Recently, peer-to-peer ("p2p") lending systems have emerged as a popular vehicle for unsecured consumer and small-business lending. Based on a study of Zopa Limited, a leading UK p2p lending firm, we demonstrate how design rhetorics and user experience (UX) structures created to appeal to technologically sophisticated early adopters were abandoned in order to attract a larger, more mainstream, less technologically literate user base. This study suggests that successful alternative financial ventures will likely forego systems which require significant technological and financial literacy via design rhetorics intended to convey messages of user empowerment, but rather create assemblages and messages stressing stability, trustworthiness and ease of use, by reducing transparency and streamlining the UX.
We argue that this transformation of design rhetorics and business practices, while deeply implicated in processes of financialization, reflects limitations on those processes within the contemporary UK context. Zopa's shift away from transparency in its users toolkit and reintermediation of the firm as a locus of expertise may be seen as lessening the impact of financialization on its middle-class lending base, by using business processes and the UX to shift knowledge burdens from the individual investor back to the firm. This analysis suggests that the "financialization of daily life" is neither uni-directional nor uniform, as firms must shape their user experience, design and marketing to reflect local levels of trust and competence with both technological and financial innovations.(more...)

TOM MILLER: UND hits an important stretch
In the beginning stages of a program overhaul, first-year UND head football coach Bubba Schweigert has stressed that the scoreboard isn't as important as effort and discipline.
Most fans understand that, and they should. The new coaching staff needs time. No one expects the ship to be righted overnight.

Ballmer Pleads For Openness To Compete With Apple 532

Yeah, open like a venus flytrap
... because my wallet has a court injunction against me setting foot anywhere near an iPhone with a for-sale sign on it!
You might think that only communists define and use open standards, but the truth is far worse. Look at the member bodies of the ISO such as ANSI, the so-called American National Standards Institute. Rearrange the letters and what do we find? That's right, NASI! Who else but fascist dictators would want to apply a single doctrine to all facets of life for every man, woman and child on the planet! Let the truth be known, only NASIs want open standards, the free world should forever remain insular, secretive and closed.
Ballmer's in Glass Houses should not throw Stones.
How about chairs?
You know how he said there were fanboys on both sides...

The benefits are phenomenal. Highlights include: No premiums for Medical & Dental; Dental, Vision, Tuition Reimbursement; Stock Purchase Plan w/company match and 401k. Communication from executive leadership is good with regularly scheduled all-hands meetings.
Ericsson drives as much work as they can offshore to reduce costs as many corporations do anymore. This unfortunately eliminates positions in the U.S. further increasing unemployment levels. Work units are fragmented from the core business so executive communications are often meaningless to work units that support other work.
Challenge the offshore trend and look for alternatives to become more cost efficient. Nothing alienates a team faster than training someone to take over their work. Some senior leaders micromanage their teams rather than having trust that they can do the work. Trust your people.

BMG Route Card: Rochefort Ridgeby Owain Jones - BMG Jul/2011
This article has been read 9,565 times
In this feature from the British Mountain Guides, a qualified and experienced guide takes you through one of the most coveted and beautiful routes in the Western Alps.
The Rochefort Ridge is an utterly classic exposed snow ridge requiring good balance and crampon technique with some surprisingly bold and loose rock climbing to gain the summit of the Aiguille de Rochefort.
Starting Point: Torino Hut +39 0165 84 40 34
Quickest Approach
From Chamonix:
Aiguille Du Midi lift then the Helbronner lift takes you straight to the hut. This is weather dependant and costly.
Via Mt Blanc Tunnel (quite costly around 47 Euros return) to Italy and take the La Palud lift. The flight of stairs to the hut are infamous and will have you wilting silently whilst trying to look unruffled in front of your partner!
Aesthetic Approach:
Aiguille Du Midi lift then down the snow ar�te and traverse of the upper Vallee Blanche to the hut. Stunning scenery good acclimatization! Quite tiring in reverse avoid doing this after the Rochefort . Go down the lift to Italy and get the bus or do it the next day after another hut night.
For a detailed description see The 4000m Peaks Of The Alps by Martin Moran page 271 (ii)
The original Alpine club Mont Blanc Massif Volume 1 by Lindsay Griffin has been very much outdated by more modern topo guides.
Snow, ice and mixed Volume 1 by Francois Damilano, JM Editions is a must buy with super detailed photographs of the route.
The 4000m Peaks of the Alps by fellow guide Martin Moran, published by the Alpine Club is indispensable for anyone serious about 4000m peaks. One of the best Alpine guidebooks ever written!
Institut Geographique Nationale (IGN)
3630 OT Chamonix Massif Du Mont Blanc
One of the most coveted and beautiful routes in the Western Alps, its narrow corniced crest made famous by the doyens of Alpine photography.
Climbing any Alpine route is the final piece of the jigsaw preceded by hours of perusing guidebooks, cross referencing and speaking to fellow climbers with first hand experience whenever possible. This degree of preparation and mental psyching up for the task is what makes the final outcome special and uniquely rewarding.
The Rochefort Ridge is a perfect example of the full Alpine experience, requiring research and an understanding of the topography prior to an ascent.
The Rochefort Ridge (West Ridge) as far as the summit of the Aiguille De Rochefort, is actually the first part of a much bigger and more committing traverse known as the Arete de Rochefort Traverse.
This continues over the Dome de Rochefort (see photo photo at the top) and the Calotte de Rochefort with technical climbing and abseiling to the Col des Grandes Jorasses where there is a bivouac hut called the Canzio.
This is a very remote place with no easy escape either to Italy or France. For more detail refer to The 4000m Peaks Of The Alps, by Martin Moran, page 315.
Most Alpinists going this far are intent on continuing from the col (after sleeping at the Canzio) over all the tops of the Grandes Jorasses. Descending eventually from Point Walker down to the Boccalatte hut in the Italian Val Feret. This is a major undertaking and one of the most coveted ridge traverses in the Alps.
This is the reason for the obvious popularity of the first section as far as the Aiguille de Rochefort as it can be done in a day as a return trip.
The Route:
Very detailed descriptions are available in the aforementioned guidebooks. So I will focus on the key points of the climb. Initially the route leaves the hut and crosses the Col du Geant (see photo below), a huge snowy plateau leading to mixed ground on the SW face of the Dent du Geant 4013m. One of the most stunning 4000m peaks around.
From here head right to the start of the snow ar�te (see photos below) and follow the narrow crest over dips and subsidiary tops. An obvious steep descent on 50 degree snow leads down to a gap. Either down climb or abseil as there are fixed anchors. Its actually easier on the way back!
From here continue along the ar�te to the base of the summit wall. This has climbing of UIAA 2/3 and is a bit loose. The rock also lacks pro. Take some small to mid nuts and cams. Refer to aforementioned guidebooks for more detail.
Be careful getting down the summit buttress (see photo below) down climbing skills are needed here. Parts can be abseiled but anchors are poor. Retrace your steps to the Salle a Manger. From the Salle a Manger continue down the line of ascent back to the Torino Hut (3 to 4+ hours). Obviously it is later in the day so down climb carefully don't rush and be wary of dislodging rocks on others as well as looking after yourself.
A British Mountain Guide is an International Federation of Mountain Guide Associations (IFMGA) Guide, which put simply, means an internationally qualified guide with the knowledge and skills to lead parties in the world's most challenging mountain environments.
From first steps to the biggest objectives, a British Mountain Guide is an expert in techniques and safety, and a reliable companion for your adventures.
