Over the weekend we learned about "It's Always Sunny In Moscow," the Russian remake of "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia." It looks awesome and made me wonder about what other American TV series have been soaked in vodka and remolded into shows for Russian audiences. Apparently Russia enjoys our TV more than any other country.
1. Married With Children
Renamed "Schastlivy Vmeste," or "Happy Together," this authorized remake seems like the real thing. According to the New York Times, this is a typical joke: "In the living room, Gena suddenly tells Dasha to take off her clothes. Dasha is elated that Gena finally wants to have sex, and then Gena says, 'No, Dasha, I'm simply dying of hunger, and hope that that will take away my appetite.'" That sounds like Al Bundy to me.
2. How I Met Your Mother
Judging from this trailer, it appears to be a faithful adaptation — complete with a suit-wearing Barney character — down to the pineapple.
3. Jersey Shore
MTV's most popular show ever, currently there are six official spin-offs: two in England, Spain, Poland, Latin America and of course Russia. The title translates into "Vacations In Mexico" and features all the beautiful babes, beefcakes and brawls you'd expect.
4. Everybody Loves Raymond
After creating one of the most-watched family sitcoms in TV history, Phil Rosenthal set out to Russia to recreate the same magic there. I'm not sure if he succeeded, but his experience did yield a hilarious documentary called "Exporting Raymond."
5. Full House
I couldn't find much information on this show, but take one look at this video and fans of the original will recognize the characters.
6. Perfect Strangers
It would've been fun if they just reversed the characters — instead of an excitable small-town European going to live with his Chicagoan cousin, it could've been an American hillbilly moving to live with his Russian cousin. Instead they went for a remote former Soviet republic native, Andrei, moving in with his cousin Ivan in Moscow.
7. The Nanny
The lead character resembles Fran Dresher, but doesn't reach the same nasal octaves she does.
8. Grace Under Fire
Some of you might not remember this sitcom based around comedian Brett Butler, but it was a big enough hit to inspire the spin-off, "Lyuba, Children and the Factory."
9. Prison Break
If the original version gave you nightmares about prison, "Pobeg" ("Escape" in Russian) will give you night terrors.
10. Law & Order
We have so many spin-offs of "Law & Order," it's not fair we hoard them all for ourselves. The producers were kind enough to break off two different adaptations for Russia. "Law & Order: Division of Field Investigation" is based off what we know as "Special Victims Unit," and "Criminal Mind" follows the format of "Criminal Intent." Both have the familiar disclaimer and "duh, duh" intro at the beginnings.
11. House
"Dr. Tyrsa" isn't a straight up adaptation, but more of a knock-off, the main difference being Dr. Tyrsa, unlike his American counterpart, specializes in sports medicine.

Mars Recalls Pedigree Dog Food After Finding Metal Fragments
On Wednesday (Aug. 27) Mars Petcare US announced a recall of 22 bags of Pedigree Adult Complete Nutrition dry dog food products due to the presence of a "foreign material."
That foreign material is small metal fragments, which may have gotten in there during some production mishap -- the company isn't quite sure. It has shut down the production line in that facility to investigate.
Mars says the metal is not embedded in the food, but is loose in the bags, and says it "may present a risk if consumed."
The 22 15-pound bags were shipped to 12 Dollar General stores in Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and Louisiana, and they were sold between Aug. 18 and Aug. 25. The company has not received any reports of illness. Customers are encouraged to return the bags for a full refund.
Affected bags have the following information:
Lot code: 432C1KKM03
UPC code: 23100 10944
Best Before date: 8/5/15

Damon Lindelof's 'The Leftovers' Ordered to Series at HBO
The 10-episode drama will join "Game of Thrones" and "True Blood" at the premium cable network, which is venturing to outside studios like Warner Bros. Television for programming.
HBO has made room on its plate for The Leftovers.
The premium cable network has granted Damon Lindelof's adaptation of the Tom Perrotta best-seller a 10-episode series commitment, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. The Leftovers takes place as the Rapture happens -- but not quite like it's supposed to. The former Lost showrunner's take tells the story of the people who didn't make the cut and a world that will never be the same.
PHOTOS: Damon Lindelof's $400 Million Mind
Lindelof co-wrote and executive produced the Warner Bros. Television and Adventure Corps effort with Perrotta. Ron Yerxa, Albert Berger, Peter Berg and Sarah Aubrey also are on board as EPs, with Berg directing the pilot. Lindelof will serve as showrunner.
The cast is led by Justin Theroux, whose public profile has been raised with his engagement to film star --and tabloid staple-- Jennifer Aniston. He'll play the police chief who's trying to maintain some semblance of normalcy in a world that is beginning to reject that notion. The role marks Theroux's first regular series role since CBS' 2000 drama The District.
Liv Tyler will make her small-screen debut as Meg, a young woman about to be married who needs an escape. She becomes a target for recruitment by members of an enigmatic cult. Private Practice's Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who), Chris Zylka, Margaret Qualley, Carrie Coon, Emily Meade, Amanda Warren, Ann Dowd, Michael Gaston, Max Carver, Charlie Carver, Annie Q, Paterson Joseph and Brad Leland round out the cast.
The Leftovers marks the first of what is likely to be a new stream of outside studio buys for HBO. The network is currently developing projects with 20th Century Fox Television's Ryan Murphy (Open) and Warner's J.J. Abrams (Westworld), among others. At a recent industry conference, HBO programming chief Michael Lombardo acknowledged that his network has loosened up with its long-held philosophy about the importance of owning its own programming. With so much top talent in deals at other studios, he noted that it would be foolish not to be open to buying projects from the outside. What's more, he added, it will allow the network famous for its hefty budgets to spread the risk. As he put it: "It's nice to have people betting with us."
In the case of Leftovers, HBO picked up the rights to the project with Perrotta in 2011. Lindelof read the book and tracked the rights to HBO. Upon signing a rich overall deal with Warner Bros. TV, he met with the author and together the duo began discussions for what a series take on the property would look like.
The Leftovers joins dramas Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones as well as the final season of True Blood at HBO. The fate of The Newsroom remains in limbo pending Aaron Sorkin's availability, though HBO has said they'd like to see the cable news drama return for a third season.
Lindelof next has Disney's George Clooney feature Tomorrowland set for Dec. 12, 2014.

Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon
Question from anglomanz
How can I get white stone?
White stone is something which I need to marry Rosetta.
6 years ago
Top Voted Answer
You should read the book about the white stone in the library (second set of shelves, to the right) and then talk to Rosetta while she's in her room (have access to Jean's house after hours or in the early morning) and then look in the snow drift in Toros Cave about four rooms in (small sort of oddly shaped room with a fire-throwing mini magician) to find the white stone.
6 years ago
After reading about the white stone legend in the library, talk to rosetta before the store opens or after the store is closed in her room. Keep talking to her until she talks about the stone. Then, go to toros cave. Go to the left, left, up, up. Then, after you reached the room, find an ice stone(the colour is white just right you enter the room). Search there.
6 years ago
You can also see the map at "http://www.fogu.com/hm/rune_factory/marriage/rosetta.php". It's complete.
6 years ago
Also, If you talk to Jean in his room, he might ask you to give him the stone if you find it. DON'T!! Apparently, he doesn't want his daughter to get married!

The question of service and spares was asked in another thread, I addressed it there and thought I'd share it here also.
I'm sure everyone will have a different service schedule, mostly based on budget for parts and mechanics.
My plans are oil change, oil filter cleaning and new air filter daily. Tires and mousses will go no more than two days per set, some only one day depending on terrain and conditions. I have three wheel sets, two of the rears have cush drives. The third rear wheel I'll use as a back up or if I know there is lots of sand and no street liasons. Each wheel set is complete with rotors so we should not need to replace any of those as they will be on rotation. Brake pads will be changed on a as needed basis. Chain and rear sporcket should go the distance but we will change on the rest day as a precaution. A fresh engine will go in on rest day and I will have a third "just in case". I also have second set of Ohlins forks and shock that will get exchanged on the rest day.
I will have virtualy a complete bike in spares with me, everything from subframe, swingarm, triple clamp, radiators, cables, throttle body, fuel pump, electrical components to extra nuts and bolts. Hopefully that box never gets opened. I also have extra grips in a few different styles I can change if they get worn out or if it looks like it may be wet.

Tell us a little about yourself. I am a freelance writer and speaker who has authored several nonfiction books. My husband and I conduct marriage seminars based on our book, Marriage with an Attitude. My byline has appeared in magazines such as Marriage Partnership, Mature Living, On Mission, Christian Home & School, and Light & Life. I am a frequent contributor to Discipleship Journal who first published my article, "When God Calls Your Child Into Fulltime Missions." My novel, Journey to Judah is based on my daughter's love story and is Book One in the Born for India trilogy.
What was your motivation behind this project? My daughter's love story was the initial seed; the rest is totally fiction. I was so impressed by the way God provided Rachel's "Boaz" clear around the world that I had to write about it. I just didn't imagine that it would be in fiction format!
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? I want folks to know that following the Lord is not a step to fear, but a fulfilling journey on which He proves to be a faithful Lover, provider, and protector. With this assurance, I hope folks will discover the special journey God has for them as well.
How were you personally impacted by working on this project? My faith got a shot in the arm as I watched the Lord lovingly pick up a young man in Washington State, take him to India to meet my single daughter, and then marry her in 2005 and return to India as a couple in 2006. It was truly a love story written by God. The Lord deepened my assurance in Ps. 84:11 which says, "The Lord is a sun and shield; He gives grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly."
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? My particular influence on this project was the Bible study guide titled, A Lady in Waiting. About the time Rachel was introduced to Nathan, my small group was studying this guide based on the story of Ruth. As I thought about the similarities between Ruth and Rachel, a story began to emerge. I woke up one morning with the title for my novel: Journey to Judah.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: Journey to Judah is packed with action, adventure, and romance. If you like a great love story, this book is for you. Book Two, Restored Hearts, and Book Three, Chosen Ones to follow shortly.

ECB seeks transparency it vows support to economyBy PAN PYLAS
the associated press | July 04,2014ap photo
President of European Central Bank Mario Draghi is on his way to a news conference in Frankfurt, Germany, Thursday, following a meeting of the ECB governing council. The ECB decided to leave its main interest rate unchanged.The European Central Bank is overhauling the way it sets monetary policy, saying it will hold fewer meetings and publish minutes on its deliberations a bid to be more transparent as it vows to keep supporting the economy by any means available.
After the bank decided to keep its interest rates on hold Thursday, President Mario Draghi told a press briefing the ECB remains committed to take more action to help the 18-country eurozone grow faster and emerge from a period of dangerously low inflation.
To help investors understand the ECBs thinking behind such decisions, Draghi said that, starting in January, minutes will be published, a move that brings the bank in line with other major central banks. Some investors had asked for greater transparency from the ECB over the past few years, when uncertainty was high in markets amid the financial crisis.
Draghi added that from next year, monetary policy will be set every six weeks, instead of every month. That, he said, would help reduce market volatility by traders looking for action that is not always merited by economic fundamentals such as growth and inflation.
Maybe we should move to a 6-month schedule, Draghi quipped.
The ECBs policy timetable will be very similar to that of the Federal Reserve, which meets eight times a year, usually every six weeks. Draghi stressed that the ECB would not be synchronizing its meetings.
Marc Ostwald, a senior strategist at ADM Investor Services International, noted that the publication of the minutes may, however, undermine Draghis aim to have less market volatility.
With 8 meetings a year and an additional 8 meeting minutes release dates, the fact is that there will in principle be more, rather than less event risk surrounding ECB policy, he said.
Draghi on Thursday also fleshed out details of the ECBs latest plan to flood commercial banks with up to 1 trillion euros ($1.36 trillion), one of the measures it announced last month, along with interest rate cuts, to help the economy and nudge up inflation. One of the problems afflicting the eurozone is that banks often hold back from lending to businesses and households.
Draghi said the program of loans to banks will help drive inflation back to the target of just below 2 percent from 0.5 percent currently. Under the program, banks can bid for the loans on a quarterly basis, either alone or in a group with other banks. That money would have to be lent to businesses, in the hope of boosting investment.
Draghi said the recovery in the eurozone remained moderate and that inflation was subdued, but claimed long-term inflation expectations were firmly anchored.
Geopolitical risks, as well as developments in emerging market economies and global financial markets, may have the potential to affect economic conditions negatively, including through effects on energy prices and global demand, Draghi said. Markets have been shaken recently by violent clashes in Ukraine and Iraq as well as gyrations in fast-growing economies like Brazil and Turkey.MORE IN National / World BusinessTOYOTA, Japan After extended introspection at the worlds biggest automaker, Toyota says it has...

Our Teachers Deserve Better
Canadian teachers love their students and want only the best for them. Our teachers work very hard and conscientiously, but often their best efforts are thwarted by a system that fails to give them adequate training, assigns them to teach subjects they aren't qualified to teach, micromanages their teaching methods and materials, and largely ignores their input. Canadian teachers are not getting the support they need and deserve. But it doesn't have to be this way. Here's how four other countries support their teachers' professionalism and give them a voice.

Is this a good price for an HVAC unit?
dxp232June 26, 2012
Getting my HVAC replaced with the following Bryant system
95% ECM 80k BTU Header
16 Seer 36k BTU Condenser
16 Seer Coil (CNPVP3717ATAA)
New copper, pad, vent kit, condensate pump, etc...
$5995 roughly
Thanks in advance
do you know which condensor and furnace? This is a good price from what I can tell especially with a new pad, copper lineset, & condensate pump. What part of the country are you in/climate? If you want to get fancy and your installer is reasonable ask about upgrading the A/C to a heatpump.

400 watt hps, open basement, need vent or fan?
johnlauriaFebruary 27, 2014
This is my first attempt at using a hps system, I am hanging the light in a open basement, the rear and the sides will have reflective walls but the front and ceiling area will be open. Will I be ok with a small oscillating fan to move the air? or will I need to further vent to control the heat? I'd like to avoid running duct work, just uncertain of the amount of heat im going to generate. I have a plug in thermo stat for the fan but the wattage is low so I could run it off the lights timer for constant air circulation

Komori Kiri
Senior Member
Hello Morello,
Correct me if I am wrong :
- Particles are done. (no more graphical or hard-tech in the pipe)
- Overall design is done. (perma stealth but close range oracle for everyone)
You are waiting for :
- More testing iterations for the kits
- More testing iterations for the balancing of the kits
- New skins to release with the rework
- New champion to release with the rework (you can ignore this line )
You expect the rework to ship in june. So we should expect it in august, most probably october.
So I am expecting the rework to ship in october, and maybe I'll have a good surprise before.
Am I right ? ;-)
Fixing Eve won't make them money, now you know what will? Releasing more favorable unbalanced champions and their 10$ skins every other Tuesday.
Morello, you and Xyph have both displayed the opinion of "Unconventional builds are not in our, or the players, best interest". Whether it be because you felt players built around your champion choice as if you were playing conventional (as Xyph mentioned), or whether it changes the balance of the conventional build (as you said).
I mentioned in the AP Trynd thread you replied in that I don't agree with this logic. I believe that more build options should be encouraged for every single champion and that every build should be balanced to the best of the live/design team's ability, whilst leaving options open.
Options were what caused me to play LoL over DotA and HoN. I could pick up a champion, look at their abilities and create a build that worked for me. Back in August of 2010 when Morde was remade and everyone played him tanky spell pen maxing E, I maxed Q and built Gunblade, Trinity Force, Tanky. Which then lead on to become a hugely popular build; Spell vamp and Lichbane. I stuck to my tanky hybrid Q build until the Morde nerfs which just made building AP/Lichbane superior.
What I'm getting at here is that the remake to Morde allowed him to be built in multiple ways and that branched off into even more ways. Now more and more people get to enjoy Morde in any way they see fit; Tanky, Spell Pen, AP carry. The same cannot be said for recently released champions (Vayne, Garen, Olaf, Riven) who have barely more than 1 build, some only 1, which are used by the entire LoL population.
The idea that a champion should be only played 1 or 2 ways to prevent misunderstandings in champion select is, in my opinion, the wrong way to look at it. I play a lot of unconventionals, ranging from AP Yi to W-maxing solo top Poppy, and I simply tell my team my plans. They can choose their champions based on what I have told them; a lack of communication should not destroy the build options in LoL.
If this idea is taken to the enemy team then that's just silly. Because there are so many champions which can be played any way, specifically AP champions that can be played AD, that you can't remove all ability to screw up counter picking. AD Kennen and AD Ahri were prime examples of this.
Do you understand where I am coming from?
If so, do you believe in this idea, or are you still in strong belief that champions should be in one specific role?
Thank you, Morello, for restoring my faith in the dev. team. I've been guilty of falling into the "evil riot" mindset. You've pulled me back out of it. But I must say, you folks are professional trolls. New support released? Better make it free blitz week. XD
Hey Morello can you tell us anything about the Heim changes? Are you guys still going to rework him or will he just be getting some QoL changes?
ƒ Shepherd Book
He didn't say that you don't get banned, he said that getting banned was a playerbase problem, not a implementation problem. I wonder if Eve has the same effect on EU audiences.

What exactly are "exceptional events"? See below.
Tough question. I see "exceptional event" as being unavoidable loss of data - i.e. disk crash or the like. I guess that silent spamfiltering is itself against the spirit of that, and I'm not about to argue that it shouldn't be done. However, as I see it there is a difference between individual users (or indeed administrators) choosing to delete mail silently and the working group issuing a recommendation that mail should be deleted silently; the problem of antivirus bounces can be solved without resorting to that.What exactly is a "delivery failure"? My spamfilter silently discards all sorts of messages, but for obvious reasons it's not going to tell the "higher level" about it, and by consequence no notification is sent. Should this be regarded an "exceptional event", even though it is often more the rule than the exception? Or should "delivery" to /dev/null be regarded as a successful delivery?

The Fear of Obsolescence
Nothing haunts most people more than the fear of becoming outdated, obsolete, and no longer valued. This can probably be said more for educators than most other professions, especially as the form of education continues to rapidly change. While the form of education might be changing the function remains the same; to invite others to learn. The fear of change is a fascinating phenomena especially in a field that's purpose has tended to be about facilitating change. Education brings about great change in the lives of individuals, communities, and entire continents, yet some educators opt for a static existence and strive to retain the status quo in regard to their own self preservation. Typically this is an unconscious act grounded in our base human nature. The thought of transitioning to online education elicits this feeling of outdatedness for educators. This fear becomes unfounded if the educator works with an educational designer who can guide them through the transition.

G-Slate tablet headed for T-Mobile spring release
By Paul Ridden
February 5, 2011
Motorola's Xoom may have grabbed most of the Android 3.0 headlines of late but it's not the only tablet to run on Google's new tablet-optimized operating system. T-Mobile and LG have announced a spring release window for the newest member of the G-series of mobile devices, the G-Slate. The Tegra 2-powered device features 3D-capable, high definition display and can record stereoscopic HD video via its rear-facing cameras. Wireless connectivity is also given a speed boost thanks to T-Mobile's growing HSPA+ network.
In addition to being Wi-Fi-capable, the G-Slate will also be able to wirelessly connect to T-Mobile's HSPA+ network, which offers theoretical download speeds of up to 21Mbps and has already been rolled out to more than 100 major metropolitan areas in the U.S. It's not quite 4G as defined by the International Telecommunication Union (which has determined that the only LTE-Advanced and WirelessMAN-Advanced currently qualify as true 4G technologies) but it's still damn quick.
G-Slate users can view up to 720p high definition content on the 8.9-inch, multi-touch display but the screen is also 3D-capable. You will need to use glasses to view the 3D content on the display, although whether those will need to be active or passive has not been revealed. If you want to play 3D or HD video on a suitably large television then the device can output full 1080p HD video via an included HDMI-out port.
Wireless web conferencing and video chat is taken care of by a front-facing webcam but things get really interesting with the rear-facing cameras. These are full 1080p stereoscopic cameras that also snap 5 megapixel images and benefit from an LED flash.
The G-Slate is powered by NVIDIA's Tegra 2 dual-core mobile processor running at 1GHz and comes with 32GB of onboard storage. Finishing off the official specs are the magic threesome of ambient lighting sensor, accelerometer and gyroscope.
At the time of writing there's no mention of pricing, and folks are being asked to register to receive more information as it becomes available.Share
I think its going to have GPS as well. Since the most obvious advantage of a tablet is its mobility i feel that's a very important feature.Pranav Vissanji
