Business owners can easily recognize when their companies are not profitable or growing. But sometimes, it's difficult for them to figure out why.
That's because obstacles to growth can be deep-rooted and difficult to confront. Or, they can appear to stem from operational issues when really, it's a lack of leadership or poor employee behavior that's the culprit.
Often, leaders need help identifying—and acknowledging—the underlying behaviors that are holding their companies back.
How do you determine if it's behavior and not operational or technical issues that are getting in the way?
Frequently, employees and leaders at underperforming companies engage in the following negative behaviors:
Blame game: The focus is on blaming people or creating excuses for why things don't get done
Poor or no communication
Lack of accountability
Lack of control, or no one's running the show
Also, there are common, helpless phrases which employees at these companies often use, such as: "That's the way we've always done it," and "This place will never change."
In addition, behaviors such as employees being more focused on their phones than their bosses at meetings and employees panicking when deadlines are given, provide a good indication that a company needs help. (See the full "Dirty Dozen" list of 12 signs of an unaccountable culture at end of this blog.)
But these behaviors, as ingrained as they might seem, can be changed--and lead to an improved, growing business.
But where to start?
Change must start at the top. The leadership team must modify its behavior first if they want their employees to follow.
That means moving leaders from their "Stress-Self" to their "Leadership Self." Stress-Self exists when blame and excuses for why things don't get done permeate a company. Leadership-Self occurs when people are on their game, where good decision-making and measurable achievements are the norm.
In addition, a communication plan must be established between the leadership team as well as between employees.
Daily "stand-up" meetings are essential to this plan. These meetings should be short, five to 10 minutes, and focused on what each team will accomplish that day, and where potential constraints, roadblocks or bottlenecks might be.
A daily understanding of where the roadblocks are allows management to head-off potential problems before they blow up.
Developing metrics that identify behaviors that cost the company money is also critical. In addition, businesses must be able to measure productivity and create a sales team with a decisive competitive advantage.
Understanding how to drive business growth, improve your organizational help, create stronger leaders and develop a communication plan can help put a company back on track to growth and profitability.
The Dirty Dozen: 12 signs of an unaccountable culture
1. Is there a sign in the kitchen reminding employees to clean up after themselves?
2. Are there unclean dishes in the kitchen sink?
3. Is there blame and excuses for why things are not getting done?
4. Is the office/shop clean?
5. Is toilet paper sometimes missing in the bathroom?
6. Are the trash cans overflowing?
7. Do people frequently show up late to meetings?
8. Are people more focused on their cell phones in meetings?
9. Do projects tend to run late and over budget?
10. Are you constantly being surprised by problems the crop up daily/weekly?
11. Do employees sometimes panic when things need to get done?
12. Are Performance Reviews (if you have them) ineffective in shaping employee behaviors?
Answering "yes" to any of these questions is a sign of an unaccountable culture. Answering yes to two or more means that you have some very big cultural issues.

Step that initiates marching in marching band. The forward march is performed by forcing your left foot forward with your calf muscles with your heel on the ground and your toes in the air at about a 60 degree angle. The backwards march is performed by going up onto your toes as high as possible while balance is kept with your knees bent. From there, the left foot is moved backward while the toes are still firmly on the ground. This should make a "swish" or a "swoosh" sound. The vocal command for a plant step is "Hup hup ready" and is answered by yelling "Plant" or "Up and one" respectively.
The drum major gave the count-off and I performed the plant step.

1. The Social Security Trust Fund is an accounting fiction.
The Social Security tax has been raising more money than is needed to pay for current benefits, in order to build up a surplus to help finance the retirement of the Baby Boom generation. All of this surplus is lent to the U.S. Treasury when the Social Security Trust Fund buys bonds from it. The money is then used to finance the federal deficit, just like any other money the government borrows. The bonds held by the fund pay the same interest as bonds held by the public. These bonds are every bit as real (or as much of a fiction) as the bonds held by banks, corporations, and individuals. Throughout U.S. history the federal government has always paid its debts. As a result, government bonds enjoy the highest credit ratings and are considered one of the safest assets in the world. Thus the fund has very real and secure assets.
It is true that the interest the government pays on these bonds is a drain on the Treasury, as will be the money paid by the government when the fund ultimately cashes in its bonds. But this drain has nothing to do with Social Security. If the Social Security Trust Fund were not currently building up a surplus, and lending the money to the government, the government would still be running a deficit of approximately $60 billion in its non-Social Security operations. It would then have to borrow this money from individuals like H. Ross Perot and Peter G. Peterson and to pay out more interest each year to the people it borrowed from. Therefore, the government's debt to the fund is simply a debt it would have incurred in any event. The government's other spending and tax policies, not Social Security, will be the cause if there is any problem in the future in paying off the bonds held by the fund.
The government bonds held by the Social Security Trust Fund will always be a comparatively small portion of the government's debt, and therefore a relatively minor burden. They will hit a peak of about 14.4 percent of gross domestic product in 2015, whereas the debt now held by individuals and corporations is about 47 percent of GDP. Therefore, at its peak the burden of interest payments to the fund will be less than a third as large as the interest burden the government now bears.
2.> The government uses overly optimistic numbers to convince people that Social Security will be there for them. The situation is much worse than the government admits.
Actually, Social Security projections are based on extremely pessimistic economic assumptions: that growth will average just 1.8 percent over the next twenty years, a lower rate than in any comparable period in U.S. history; that growth will slow even further in later years, until the rate is less than half the 2.6 percent of the past twenty years; that there will be no increase in immigration even when the economy experiences a labor shortage because of the retirement of the Baby Boom generation; and that this labor shortage will not lead to a rapid growth in wages. Both possibilities excluded in these projections—increased immigration and rapid wage growth—would increase the fund's revenues. These projections are genuinely a worst-case scenario.
3. The demographics of the Baby Boom will place an unbearable burden on the Social Security system.
Those who want to overhaul Social Security make their case with the following numbers: in 1960 there were more than five workers for each beneficiary; today there are 3.3 workers; by 2030 there will be only two workers for each beneficiary. At present the fund is running an annual surplus of more than $80 billion, approximately 20 percent as much as its current expenditures. This surplus will generate interest revenue to help support the system as the ratio of workers to beneficiaries continues to fall in the next century. Also, the fact that workers are becoming more productive year by year means that it will take fewer workers to support each retiree. The United States had 10.5 farm workers for every hundred people in 1929; it has fewer than 1.1 farm workers for every hundred people today. Yet the population is well fed, and we even export food. Rising farm productivity made this possible. Similarly, increases in worker productivity (which have been and should be reflected in higher incomes), however small compared with those of the past, will allow each retiree to be supported by an ever smaller number of workers.
In fact the demographics of the Baby Boom have very little to do with the long-range problems of Social Security. The main reason the fund will run into deficits in future years is that people are living longer. If people continue to retire at the same age but live longer, then a larger percentage of their lives will be spent in retirement. If people want to spend a larger portion of their lives in retirement, either they will have to accept lower incomes (reduced benefits) in their retirement years relative to those of their working years, or they will have to increase the portion of their incomes (higher taxes) that they put aside during their working years for retirement.
This is the main long-range problem facing Social Security. Current projections show that the annual deficit will be 5.71 percent of taxable payroll in 2070, long after the Baby Boom will have passed into history. But the annual deficit is expected to be only 4.44 percent of taxable payroll in 2035, when the worst crunch from retired Baby Boomers will be felt.
Examining just the change in the ratio of beneficiaries to workers overstates the burden that workers will face in the future. To assess the burden accurately it is necessary to examine the total number of dependents—beneficiaries and children—each worker will have to support. It is projected that this ratio will rise from 0.708 per worker at present to 0.795 in 2035. But even this number is well below the ratio of 0.946 that prevailed in 1965. And the fund's trustees project a lower birth rate, meaning that the increased costs of providing for a larger retired population will be largely offset by the reduction of expenses associated with caring for children.

Of course it's "grandfathered in": it's part of our culture now and I don't have a problem with that. But I asked to put the tradition behind and really examine that name...I was trying to make a point to you and others that are discarding names because they may be "dull", "generic", and "boring".
The name Saints of course ties into the religious (mainly Catholic) culture around here, but it's not some overly obvious, purely NOLA term that some of the fans on here say they must have and it's certainly not some super exciting, kick (A) nickname. And apparently (correct if wrong) some of the posters on here say the main reason the football team was named Saints is because the team was officially born on All Saints Day moreso than any specific cultural connection. Regardless, it is now both a locally and nationally popular brand that no one questions.
And as some other posters pointed out that I never really thought about, there are many strange, unexciting mascots around sports, but most of them are very respected brands; how goofy the names sound are a mere afterthought and really not thought about at all. Admittedly I've been a poster that doesn't want kiddy, amateurish, lame-ish mascot names like Crawfish or Pelicans, but as I've seen with some of the suggested designs and current sports mascots, just about anything can be pulled off with an appropriate logo, color scheme, and branding, so I am more open.
I forgot what other names you called dull, but my personal favorite Knights was one of them. It doesn't get more dull than Saints, yet it has become a respected brand here, so names like that could work...

Bumble and bumble Thickening Spray 8 oz.
JoyceUnited StatesHairBlondeColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairAwful!I have very short, thin hair and have tried this product several times on wet hair. I could not believe how awful it was. It was not heavy and had a pleasant scent, but it made my hair sticky and so soft that styling was impossible. A total waste of money. I will never buy it again!posted Jun 29, 2012Link to this post
JessicaSan FranciscoHairLight BrownDry HairColor Treated HairThis Totally WorksBumble and Bumble thickening spray works really well to give volume and density to my hair. It's fun to use when styling but also great for air drying, too. You can layer it with other products (for hydration/shine, whatever) or use alone. It doesn't make my hair greasy or weigh it down. I think it's a great product.posted Oct 29, 2011Link to this post
SstHairDark BrownNormal HairCould Someone Give Me An Opinion?I've been using this for a few months now and haven't really seen a difference. The product just sits there in my hair and makes it look kinda sticky. I bought it from a salon and my hairdresser told me to put it on damp hair, mostly at the roots and then blow dry and style as usual.
Is the only way to get volume is to blow it out with a round brush? I have very long hair - its really hard to blow out my own hair with a round brush. I'm guessing its not the product thats bad its me not doing it right?
I have a very powerful solia hair dryer and a pretty decent round brush and ive tried for months with this product and I see no difference. Someone help! :)posted Oct 18, 2011Link to this post -

Lacey B.Salt Lake City, UTHairBlondeNormal HairBest Product Ever!!Best thickening product I've ever used! I've got long, thickish blonde hair and am very sensitive to products that leave a "build up" feeling. This product smells so great, does wonders for volumizing, and doesn't leave a trace of buildup! I've tried A LOT of products. This one beats them all!!posted Oct 13, 2010Link to this post
LynnBest Hair Thickener Ever!My hair has really thinned out in the last few months due to stress of an ill family member, menopause and being very damaged from too many products. I have tried everything and Bumble and Bumble was my last shot. If it didnt help I was headed to a dermatologist. Im here to say---it works!!!! It is fantastic at the roots and seems to double the thickness of the hair on the top of my head, without the dreaded "stickies". Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!posted Jun 17, 2010Link to this post
QuinnLove This ProductI just placed a poor review for the Bumble and Bumble Thickening Shampoo but their Thickening Spray WORKS!!! I do love this product and can't live without it. My hair hair needs all the lift it can get these days as it ages and gets thinner...this product works after shampoo and dries nicely but I've also used it the next day when I need a refresher and don't have time to shampoo. GREAT product....worth the money - unlike the shampoo.posted Mar 7, 2010Link to this post
MelBest Thickening Product Ever!!!I've made my research on many thickening products but it always failed until I found this one! This makes my hair full with body, it stays in place, no flyaway, very good for a blowout. I just love it!posted Mar 1, 2010Link to this post
DianaMontreal, Quebec, CanadaHairFine or Thin HairThe Best By FarI have baby fine hair and i have tried every single thikening product available on the market. Most of those products will make your hair feel dirty and stiff, but this product is simply different and so much more effective than tose other products.

Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan tried on Michelle Obama's new look on Jan. 18. / Live with Kelly and Michael
We had a sneaking suspicion that Michelle Obama's new bangs would take off with a, um, bang.
To wit: Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan took the look for a test drive on Live with Kelly and Michael Friday. Ripa added clip-on blond fringe to her long locks. The result? Pretty darn good.
Posted one of the show's Twitter followers, @maryb_pearson: "Kelly's bangs look so natural. Fabulous!"
Chimed in @mvitaterna: "Her bangs look very Zoey Deschanel!"
Grinning from beneath his own blond mop, however, an ever-game Strahan looked more like - Nicki Minaj?

Phoronix: Win $500 USD From Phoronix, Take Our Survey
IDG TechNetwork, our advertising partner for Phoronix, is running a site survey for us where you can win $500 USD. This survey should just take a matter of minutes and asks about your reading habits on Phoronix, what you would like to see, your job roles, how you interact with advertisements, etc. The results of this survey are used by IDG to help pull in new -- and relevant -- advertisers on Phoronix...
US and Canada only :-(
Yeah... You should mention that this is US/Canada only on the news post right away, it's not very fair to bury this (I went to see the rules exactly because I expected it to be this way, unfortunately...).
When I make purchasing decisions, I don't look to little annoying .gif files on web pages, I look at reviews, benchmarks, and whether or not the vendor pisses me off.
There were some questions they should have asked in that survey that they did not.
Yeah, it seemed to equate more ads with more sales
I use adblock, so even though I'm outside the US I took the survey to make up for all the ads I miss
I'm using AdBlock too. I hoped that in the survey I could say phoronix really sucks without AdBlock, but of course, no such option, so I decided to not submit the survey either.
There are lots of technological sites that don't have the stupid annoying ads phoronix has. I still like the articles on phoronix, but that's really it. So if phoronix will mess up article content too, I guess there's not much here for people to go to anymore.

Re: Commute Pictures.I currently commute to the train station along a shared path that follows the Werribee river. I've now got a video camera and out of interest, I mounted it sideways on one of my recent commutes. The footage is quite serene and beautiful!
It's a 13 minute procession of river gums, other trees/bushes and grassland with glimpses of the river water and views of the river bank on the other side of the water all passing by at just the right pace. There's no sign of civilisation, not a house or road in sight. At times you can clearly see my shadow pedalling along, projected onto the trees and bushes next to the path. I'll try to post some of the footage up (haven't done that before). If you've got a video camera I recommend mounting it sideways on a sceneic ride for an interesting new perspective!

Re: Commute Pictures.
That's on the north side of the station, north of Shaws Rd actually. The south side of the station is very nice too. Heading south of the station, when you get to the freeway, the river path meets the Federation trail, but you can also keep heading south and ride to the grounds of the Werribee park mansion and the Werribee south beach area. North of the station, the river path is duplicated on both sides of the river to Shaws Rd/Presidents Park. North of Shaws Rd the path runs on the East side of the river until it ends just short of Hogans Rd. Plenty of Cafes on Watton St (eg Moka Patisserie, Chocolate Room). I'm sure you could get a take away at Joseph's restaurant at the mansion and enjoy it in the mansion grounds. PS: There's no shared path between the railway line & Cottrell St. When heading north, cross the rail lines at either one of the crossings (east or west of the station) and get onto the shared path on the other side of Cottrell St. It's only 200m or so of no shared path.
Re: Commute Pictures.Thanks Malnar.

Re: Commute Pictures.That's a really cool video, strangely calming .

Re: Commute Pictures.
Try the Chatterbox Cafe, Watton Street just around the corner from Duncans Road. Head up Station Place nearly opposite the cafe and pass to the left of the underground access to the station up to Comben Drive to access the Werribee River Trail. Follow the trail down to where it meets the Fed Trail, cross over the new viaduct and turn right to go under the highway, watch out for the steep and loose gravel run down under the highway and then follow the path. Riding the bike in the Mansion grounds is a no-no but the Parks people are "too busy" to notice unless you are being stupid about it. Leave the Mansion via the Shadowfax winery access road onto K road, it avoids a longish dusty gravel main entrance road to the mansion. turn left to head back to Duncans Road to take you back to the Chatterbox Cafe for a refresher. One can easily spend an hour or two just looking around the mansion grounds without entering the mansion itself. It's a great area, a real hidden gem.
Re: Commute Pictures.Thanks for the guide Footloose Might have to wait until Sunday as I've been handed a shedload of paperwork with a deadline of Saturday lunchtime

ALL NEW for 2014, the GRIZZLY® 1548 Sportsman is a unique boat perfect for waterfowl hunting.
Available in two optional camo schemes to match your hunting area, this boat is also loaded inside with great features. Raised fore and aft decks provide great vantage points while fishing. Both even feature a seat base for setting up the fold-down fishing chair. It also has port and starboard rod boxes that can also be used as gun boxes. For duck hunting, the VERSATRACK® accessory-mounting system in the gunnels is ready to accept your choice of optional blinds to keep you out of sight of your quarry. Plus, welded-in eyes at the four corners of the deck allow you to install anchor poles to keep your boat solidly in place while you wait!
Plus, it sports a Mod V hull for a smoother, drier ride than you would find on a flat bottom boat. Overall, this is one of the toughest, most versatile and easy-to-maneuver hunting/fishing boats around.
Have a question about the 2014 Tracker Boats Welded Jon & Utility GRIZZLY 1548 Sportsman?

A medical ninjutsu where one anticipates the spot the enemy will attack and pre-emptively applies medical treatment to it, reducing damage to a minimum. The user concentrates chakra to that area and begins the cell recreation process even before the targeted area becomes damaged. Using opponent's facial expression and movements, the technique's speed and power, the user analyses everything in an instant and accurately deduces where the attack will land. Even more than accurately predicting the attack or instantly gauging the situation, a great resilience is necessary, so one might say this technique is exclusive to Kabuto.
Kabuto claims that this technique is the reason that Orochimaru values him so highly: he can keep using test subjects for much longer than is normally feasible. The technique will continue to heal damage until the user runs out of chakra, leaving the possibility that the damage will not be completely mended when the technique ends.
- In the anime, after Tsunade returned to Konohagakure and gave her prognosis on Rock Lee's condition — thinking back to how she saw Kabuto withstand Naruto's Rasengan, Tsunade used Kabuto's technique as an inspiration to expand on the life-threatening operation and improve Lee's chances of survival from 50% to 58%.[2]

Pillow + Puppet Giveaway
And speaking of pillows ...
Jamie is such a big fan of Quilt Dad and my readers that he offered to let me host a giveaway! There will be two prizes this time (edited to add: both will go to one lucky winner!). The first is this adorable DwellStudio sparrow pillow -- an item that I knew all of you quilters and crafters (and lovers of anything bird-related!) would love.
With all of the pillow buzz happening around Flickr-land lately, I knew this would be a perfect prize.
The second is this awesome set of five DwellStudio finger puppets:
I think I need to snag a set of these myself for a nephew that we're expecting in December!
What do you think? Pretty nice prizes, huh? By the way, I also love AllModern's selection of Alessi houseware items -- I wish I had known about those kitchen tools when Mrs. Quilt Dad and I made our wedding registry! Look at this salt & pepper set! Super cool stuff. Great for bridal shower (or Christmas) gifts, I think ...
Some fine print ...
Unfortunately, due to shipping costs, this giveaway is only open to my U.S. readers. Sorry about that!
You know the drill: simply leave a comment on this post, and I'll select one random number as the winner of both prizes.
I'll leave the giveaway open until next Wednesday, October 21st.
Good luck!

Oh my goodness, how cute are those?! My two-year-olds would get such a kick out of those finger puppets.
Liz @ teeny tiny quiltsI ADORE DwellStudio. (My son's nursery is decked out in the old "Zoo" line they made for Target, and when I found out the Farm Girl collection was on clearance because it was discontinued I snatched up all they had left. And I don't even have a girl! Its a "Just In Case" deal. ;-)
Thanks for the awesome giveaway, and quiltdad, you rock!Just found your blog and am so intriqued by the idea of guys sewing and quilting. So not where I come from...and encouraging me to teach my boys the art!
I love the pillow and know a beautiful head that could use a rest there...and the puppets would be awesome for some lonely little fingers!

May 2, 2015Very fun movie! the cast is phenominal! Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone have fantastic chemistry, the best of any comic book movie. Andrew brings the spidey from the comics to the big screen
Apr 22, 2015not as good as spider man 1.2 and even 3 (I liked 3). its not very good but it still pretty good. the spider man charter was play down a little bit but that's it.
Apr 22, 2015
Apr 17, 2015Finally, a good super-heroes movie! I love spider-man and Andrew Garfield is much better than Tobey Maguire. I didn't like Tobey Maguire's Spider-man series, but this one is fantastic.
Mar 13, 2015A third of the movie is a mediocre remake of the 1st Spider-Man movie. Another third of the movie was a bad teenage soap opera. The few action scenes were cliche and predictable. The Lizardman looked cheesy as hell. I didn't see much humor and fun in the film like I did in Sam Rammi's Spider-Man movies. It was boring.
Mar 12, 2015
Feb 27, 2015Un reboot excelente, muestra el origen y el desarrollo de Spiderman de una manera distinta, mas humana y dramática que la trilogía de Sam Raimi, es de las mejores películas de Spiderman que existen (pero no supera a Spiderman 2 de Sam Raimi)
Feb 1, 2015For a Spider-Man reboot, this is actually pretty good. The origin has some small flaws though, and some scenes are a little lame, but any way, this is quite a good movie. It stands out for its cast and innovative storytelling. It's just different, in a positive way most of the times. It's not better than the first 2 Spider-Man films, but it's far from being the worst.
Jan 26, 2015[Portuguese] O humor do novo Homem-Aranha é simplesmente incrível e a Gwen Stacy é completamente amável, personagens carismáticos como estes junto a um inimigo que faz jus a toda história dos quadrinhos deixaram esse filme quase perfeito.
Jan 12, 2015This unnecessary Spiderman reboot is saved from being a CGI-filled mess by the performances of Stone and Garfield. Their romantic chemistry is one of the only reasons to see this film.
Jan 11, 2015Definitely doesn't reach the height of the Sam Raimi films and while it may be too early for a Spider-Man reboot, it's worth seeing for any Marvel fan anxious to see another film involving your friendly neighborhood, Spider-Man.
Jan 4, 2015The Amazing Spider-Man is a very enjoyable reboot with fun action and some likeable characters. However, the villain was very weak and there were some moments that were so implausible that they were stupid. Still, the movie is fun and definitely worth your time.
Dec 23, 2014
Dec 22, 2014
Dec 8, 2014Although the story sometimes succumbs to some of the 2002's Spider-Man plot points, "The Amazing Spider-Man" is a satisfying installment in Marvel canon thanks to its fantastic cast, well-handed direction and an appealingly dark tone.
Dec 7, 2014This is an average movie.The music used was quite good and the special effects were quite good. This movie has an average storyline. Nonetheless, it has a good ending.
Nov 24, 2014Peter Parker isn't a nerd, but a handsome hipster only labeled a nerd so he can be the misunderstood boy in girls' middle school fantasies. Am I watching High School Marvelous or a comic book adaptation? The 2002 version is much better.
Nov 22, 2014
Nov 12, 2014
Nov 10, 2014The Amazing Spider-Man is a mostly successful reboot of Spiderman despite having an agonizingly weak antagonist and shared plots with first Spider-Man movie.
Nov 9, 2014After The Avengers and X-Men: Days of future past,The Amazing Spider-Man it's the best superhero movie of all time.A great movie and great actors.The best Spider-Man movie with the second movie of Sam Raimi's trilogy.
Oct 22, 2014
Oct 14, 2014The Amazing Spider-Man is not as good as the first and second part of the saga of Sam Raimi but it's entertaining and also gives us a new Spidey for a new generation. It's noteworthy a story full of mysteries with a great improvement about the special effects and a nice soundtrack by James Horner. (68 - 100)

Aug 24, 2014
Aug 20, 2014Reboot time! The 2002-2007 Sam Raimi Spiderman franchise came to a close once SM3 disapointed many fans. So long story short the franchise was rebooted. July 6, TASM came . Andrew Garfield starring as Peter/ spiderman and Emma stone starring as gwen stacey. The main villian in this movie is Dr. Conners aka the lizard. Overall the movie was a decent film. I give a 7.8. I did enjoy it though!
Aug 17, 2014
Aug 16, 2014The movie was ok for the visually stunning part but for the acting and the action scenes the movie just failed.There was not enough action and when there was some of it,it was filmed like ****

May 30, 2014Fantastic Movie for the Summer! The Amazing Spider-Man is packed with action and romance and is lead by an amazing performance from Andrew Garfield who makes this film entertaining most of all.
May 25, 2014
May 12, 2014
May 5, 2014This film is the second worst spider man film, ok this is more kind to it source material but it is still a bad movie with a terrible vilain, but emma stone save a hole part from this film.
May 4, 2014
May 4, 2014
May 3, 2014This movie came out a while ago and so ill keep it simple for anyone who hasnt seen it yet. Its a good movie. period. It makes for one awesome summer flick! very enjoyable!
May 1, 2014great movie, with intense action and good characters. My favorite Actor was Andrew Garfield He's amazing in this film, and The writing was good. This movie was stellar movie with a stellar cast and great writing to keep you interested
Apr 27, 2014
Apr 27, 2014An alright superhero movie. I was never a big fan of the first Spiderman movies and not a fan at all of Spiderman in general. He is one of my least favourite superhero's. There were some cool action scenes in this movie to keep me entertained enough but nothing to special at all.
Apr 26, 2014
Apr 21, 2014
Apr 6, 2014I dunno what all the hate for this movie is about. It's not the best, it's not the worst. It's a fun Spiderman movie if you like Spiderman, but if you're not really a comic book person then you can safely skip this movie without having missed much.
Mar 8, 2014I'm actually really pleased with this reboot. It's darker than the original Sam Raimi movies, it's not as cheesy, and I would say this movie comes in match with "Spider-Man 2". However, I did not find the lizard too interesting - it could have been better developed.

Feb 11, 2014
Jan 13, 2014An interesting beginning in the reboot franchise, but too tweeny for my liking. Andrew Garfield is the essence of Peter Parker but his acting gets lost in a cloud of CG.
Jan 6, 2014Mudou um pouco a história e realmente ficou interessante.
Dec 17, 2013The Amazing Spider-Man is a mostly successful reboot of Spiderman despite having an agonizingly weak antagonist and shared plots with first Spider-Man movie.
Dec 14, 2013Amazing Spider-Man is truly amazing movie superhero, if i can compare with sam raimi movie, the different look in costume, story, character, by the way i enjoy watch this movies...so entertaining...can't wait the sequel...good job Marc Webb
Dec 12, 2013Stays a lot like the first Spider-Man in terms of plot, but action-packed fight sequences and great use of CGI make it a fresh take on Peter Parker's story.
Nov 29, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Nov 16, 2013
Nov 15, 2013Don't like this one compared to the original. Peter Parker in this version is a lot more arrogant and rude. I know it's just a movie but Peter's arrogance indirectly got his uncle killed.
Oct 29, 2013It's a good film so I'll give it a 8/10. The actions are pretty cool too, the way Peter Parker gets his webbing powers are well-explained. The film has a few hilarious scenes so it's a great movie to watch for all age.
Oct 1, 2013
Sep 21, 2013
Sep 20, 2013Two hours long, this reboot of the Spiderman franchise is substantial; a solid film. It is nothing like the original trilogy, but it still keeps your attention for a little bit, occasionally losing focus, then hitting a solid note again. It's a drifting movie looking for a target.

Aug 21, 2013Well, the new Peter is charming and a very simple guy, and really really amazing. Not only girls must love him, but everyone. The other actors are great too, the movie is interesting and very good but only the first half. After that the movie went bad. It reminds me of the power rangers kids series. I think there's a lot to fix in the movie story, but it's too late now.
Aug 18, 2013
Aug 12, 2013One of the most over rated movie ever this had me sleeping
this earns a highest of 2/10
A very bad movie
............................................ -
Aug 11, 2013I think this is a fantastic movie and in my opinion better than the other Spider-man movies. They choose the perfect actor to play Peter Parker/Spider-man. Overall a really enjoyable movie for comic book fans and fans of good movies.
Aug 11, 2013Meh, this movie seemed to take the things I liked from the original and throw them away and take the parts I didn't like and magnify them. Its an average super hero movie with a drawn out beginning. Its not bad, but I wasn't really impressed either.
Aug 1, 2013Serving two fantastic leads in Garfield and Stone as well as a great villain in Rhys Ifans as The Lizard, everything works out perfectley in this superb reboot of my favorite superhero. It's truly amazing, not just amazing, but quite spectacular!
Jul 29, 2013
Jul 26, 2013Watching it again I realized this filmed was completely flawed albeit mostly entertaining. Aside from Uncle Ben, everything in this rings completely false.
Jul 15, 2013No me empeño en dañar las peliculas que a muchos les Gusta sino en valorar en este caso lo excelente que venia siendo Spider Man, no esta Peter Parker, es una nueva Historia un nuevo inicio a la clasica historia del hombre araña que no arranca muy bien.
Jul 4, 2013With science and wit dangling from its webs of storytelling, "The Amazing Spider-Man" uses Garfield and Stone's acts to soar, and leaving a wonderful impression in the end.

Jun 17, 2013This may not be the best Spider-Man film, but its an excellent reboot. The cast is definetely one of the best. The movie kills it with action, emotion and origin. It's a retelling of Spider-Man but in a way that has secrets.
I give TASM a 9/10 -

Apr 24, 2013
Apr 20, 2013Does "The Amazing Spider-Man" do anything new to movies? Well, no. But the genres that exist are all in there. The movie has its moments of humor, horror, romance, action, adventure, thriller, it has simply everything, and the way they used all that to make a superhero movie is simply one of the best ways they could use it.
Apr 11, 2013
Apr 8, 2013The Amazing Spider-Man is the Spider-Man film that we were all waiting to see. It has a fantastic cast that all give great performances, a great score to accompany it, and great action sequences that can only be put as simply: amazing.
Mar 31, 2013
Mar 24, 2013I was hesitant to see this movie, as the ones done in the early 2000's were exceptional. This version did not disappointing me, showing the early life of Peter Parker that was based more closely on the comics than the original that starred Tobey McGuire.
Mar 16, 2013
Mar 15, 2013I liked the Raimi Spider Man movies (even the third one was ok), but unlike those movies I really liked how Marc Webb handles the relationship between Peter and Gwen.
Mar 10, 2013It has all element a good entertaining superhero movie needs. A good plot with nice performances. Its more thought provoking than Sam Raimi's Spider-Man.
Mar 6, 2013
Mar 3, 2013I just don't get it. The Spider Man trilogy started in 2002, and now we already have a reboot? Man, can't wait until this superhero fad dies off and never comes back.

Feb 28, 2013It's not a movie that wins awards and it's not close to reaching the magnificent height of "The Dark Knight", the best super hero-movie to date, but who cares? This film has got just the right amount of action and humour that is expected out of a Spider Man-film, and Andrew Garfield actually makes a great performance as the classic super hero.

Feb 6, 2013andrew garfield does not play garfield the THIS
Feb 5, 2013A well acted action packed superhero film that makes this well needed a reboot a success. This new storyline proves that we will see Peter Parker's teenage years and will show a bigger development in the story than a huge jump from high school-er to photographer.
Feb 3, 2013
This might be a fun summer blockbuster if only it even remotely needed to exist.
In short, the character is a lot like the way Stan Lee first envisioned him, but the trilogy's screenwriter Steve Ditko would probably loathe this new, unsatisfying, and hollow-feeling entry into the new cinematic Marvel Universe.
On the whole, it's passable stuff, a surprise, given how mechanical the masked character seemed.

This case fits the iPhone 4S extremely well. The color is true red as pictured, and the rubber pvc is so much better than silcone ones Ive tried in the past. There is a slight lip on the front whereby your ear will not be flush to the phone but it doesnt hurt or bother me. The slight transparency looks great against the black of the phone. I couldn't have asked for a better price and its so durable (I havent dropped it so I dont know how durable in that sense). The only thing I noticed is if you have a screen protector on the phone, the case is so tight that it starts to lift up the protector slightly at one edge, but with a little effort in adjusting its fine. Will be getting more colors!
Really like this case. Fits like a glove, is stylish, and does exactly what it's supposed to do. I especially like the gripper areas on the sides of the case, easier to get out of my pocket. A great bargain for the price.
nice, clean looking durable case for a cheap price!
This case would not give sufficient protection for an iPhone. The case was lightweight and slippery. I will stick it away for a spare case.
My review would probably be different if I got what I really ordered. I ordered a red cover and got black. Not worth the effort to return and I will likely give it away since I didn't want black.
It is a wonderful cover for my iphone... I love the color and may just order another in a different color. Love it!!!
Good deal for price holds phone good only issue rubber tough so clicking on top button is not easy you have to press harder but overall good

My name is Erik and I'm an alcholic. Glad to be sober. I'm new to this online stuff but not new to AA. I have been sober for just over 10 months now. The hardest thing for me is I still have the cravings to drink. Its not that I want to drink but everyone and I mean everyone I hang out with drinks. Will these craving ever go away or will I be dealing with them everyday. Its been 10 months and I still have withdrawals. Will someone give advice or words of wisdom please? I would greatly appreciate it.
One day at a time.

Shanghai Shindig to end winter with a colorful, cosmopolitan adventure
Feather Publishing
Residents and visitors are invited on an adventure of the senses Saturday, March 27, at the Shanghai Shindig in Greenville.
Renowned Chinese chef Peter Chu of Redding and locally renowned dessert chef Marty Shower will provide adventures for palates.
Volunteers will transform the town hall into a venue befitting the cosmopolitan theme, and servers will enhance that feeling with their colorful far-eastern costumes.
Shindig sports enthusiasts will be especially pleased with some of the auction items, which include signed Raiders helmets, guided fishing, hunting and birding trips, and tickets to sporting events.
Other items include overnight stays and dinners, antiques, furniture, artwork, a year's worth of desserts, a fully catered dinner for six to eight people, and other items.
Beverages and hors d'oeuvres will be served at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner and dessert at 6:30 p.m. and a live auction at 7:30 p.m.
The event is a fund-raiser for the Indian Valley Community Center, where an open house that same day, from 2-5 p.m., will provide residents with an opportunity to see what's left to do before the grand opening in June.
The center is located on Highway 89 in Greenville, across from the Sierra Sunrise Coffee House and Deli.
Shanghai Shindig tickets are available at the balloon and video counter of Evergreen Market in Greenville, at Young's Market in Taylorsville and at Pangaea in Quincy.

Major Section: MISCELLANEOUS
is an ld
special (see ld). The accessor
is (ld-query-control-alist state)
and the updater is
(set-ld-query-control-alist val state)
. Roughly speaking,
is either nil
(meaning all queries should be
interactive), t
(meaning all should default to the first accepted
response), or an alist that pairs query ids to keyword responses.
The alist may end in either t
or nil
, indicating the default value
for all ids not listed explicitly. Formally, the
must satisfy ld-query-control-alistp
. The
initial ld-query-control-alist
is nil
, which means all queries are
handled interactively.
When an ACL2 query is raised, a unique identifying symbol is printed
in parentheses after the word ``Query''. This symbol, called the
``query id,'' can be used in conjunction with ld-query-control-alist
to prevent the query from being handled interactively. By ``handled
interactively'' we mean that the query is printed to *standard-co*
and a response is read from *standard-oi*
. The alist can be used to
obtain a ``default value'' for each query id. If this value is nil
then the query is handled interactively. In all other cases, the
system handles the query without interaction (although text may be
printed to standard-co
to make it appear that an interaction has
occurred; see below). If the default value is t
, the system acts as
though the user responded to the query by typing the first response
listed among the acceptable responses. If the default value is
neither nil
nor t
, then it must be a keyword and one of the
acceptable responses. In that case, the system acts as though the
user responded with the given keyword.
Next, we discuss how the ld-query-control-alist
assigns a default
value to each query id. It assigns each id the first value paired
with the id in the alist, or, if no such pair appears in the alist,
it assigns the final cdr
of the alist as the value. Thus, nil
assigns all ids nil
assigns all ids t
'((:filter . nil) (:sysdef . :n) . t)
assigns nil
to the
query, :n
to the :sysdef
query, and t
to all
It remains only to discuss how the system prints text when the
default value is not nil
, i.e., when the query is handled without
interaction. In fact, it is allowed to pair a query id with a
singleton list containing a keyword, rather than a keyword, and this
indicates that no printing is to be done. Thus for the example
above, :sysdef
queries would be handled noninteractively, with
printing done to simulate the interaction. But if we change the
example so that :sysdef
is paired with (:n)
, i.e., if
is '((:filter . nil) (:sysdef :n) . t)
, then
no such printing would take place for sysdef
queries. Instead, the
default value of :n
would be assigned ``quietly''.

Biodiesel: Fat to Fuel
'Thanks to this project, yesterday's French fry grease is tomorrow's truck fuel.'
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel produced from domestic, renewable resources. It is safe to use in any diesel engine and is more sustainable and far less polluting than conventional petroleum diesel. Biodiesel significantly reduces asthma-causing soot, greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide in air emissions. Along with creating less pollution, biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable and non-toxic. Produced from renewable resources such as waste cooking oil or soybean oil, biodiesel reduces dependence on limited energy resources and foreign oil. The "fat to fuel" process recovers energy and recycles waste oils that are either dumped in landfills or flushed down drains, clogging pipes and causing costly sewer spills.

This weekend I am due to work with a sponsee on her 5th Step. This will be only the 2nd time I've done this. I'm a bit nervous about my ability to be of any help whatsoever during this process.
I think that's because what made the 5th Step important to me, seems to differ from what made it important to others who I hear share. I hear a lot about folks needing to talk about their past and their secrets and their shame and their guilt, and how being able to tell all of that to one person was very freeing.
That was not my experience. I have always been an open book. I talked and talked and talked to my friends and my therapist all throughout my "active" years. Matter of fact, when I got sober, I had to learn boundaries, to learn to NOT share everything about me, with everyone I met.
So, what Step 5 did for me was to help me "connect the dots" regarding my patterns, my personality traits. My sponsor was very helpful in showing me the themes that ran through my life. For instance, I might have thought that a particular situation or situations affected only my pocketbook (per the BB categories), but she showed how it also affected my self-esteem. She helped me to more honestly look at me. Although I was quite open about the events of my life, I didn't know how to be honest with myself about myself.
I don't feel capable of doing the same for someone else. My sponsor has 20+ years of experience and has done many other 5th Steps prior to mine. I don't want to short-change this woman by simply listening and nodding my head, yet don't feel qualified to do anything further.

In the Threaded I/O Tester chart on the last page, it says Fewer Are Better. In the paragraph following the chart, it says ReiserFS was first place, but I think it was actually last place.
Phoronix: Testing Out Linux File-Systems On A USB Flash Drive
In past articles we have delivered plenty of file-system benchmarks from testing out EXT4 to Btrfs to NILFS2. We have also delivered benchmarks from traditional hard drives to solid-state drives. One area though where we have not published any file-system benchmarks is for USB flash drives. Most users end up staying with the default FAT32 file-system for flash drives, but are there any performance advantages to using EXT3, EXT4, XFS, Btrfs, or ReiserFS? We have the benchmarks today to share atop the latest Linux 2.6.32 kernel build.
In the Threaded I/O Tester chart on the last page, it says Fewer Are Better. In the paragraph following the chart, it says ReiserFS was first place, but I think it was actually last place.
On page 4, you say "ReiserFS managed to pull a win" in a test where the image says "Fewer Are Better" although ReiserFS got the greatest value in most test, if I understand things right here...
EDIT: beaten by 3 minutes :/
What about wear and tear? I generally avoid journaling file systems from flash drives because I thought they would negatively affect the lifetime of the hardware due to the large number of writes. Am I right in assuming this?
I've been running the OS of a server on an 8GB model of that Corsair drive for a year now. Funny how temporary solutions so often end up not...
I've been running Ubuntu for about 8 months a cheap 8GB Transcend USB stick. EXT4 all the way, with journalling. Just four tweaks: no swapfile, /tmp is tmpfs, disk elevator is none and no browser disk cache.
This stick is very slow in random writes but pretty fast in random reads. I wouldn't say no to a better stick (Cruizer, SanDisk or Voyager GT), but the Transcend one works too for my day to day needs (programming, movies and a games like Diablo 2, Starcraft or World of Goo.)
No "wear and tear" to speak of (my data is backed up online so I'm not worried) and the stick is absolutely silent! Boots up quickly, too.
I would've liked to see UDF compared to FAT32 in these graphs.
Using a general-purpose Linux filesystem with permissions kind of defeats the point of a removable USB drive IMO.
This is what Theodore Ts'o has to say about that.

A new position paper by 3 international groups addresses 8 domains of interest for older adults with diabetes: hypoglycemia, therapy, diabetes in the nursing home, influence of comorbidities, glucose targets, family/caretaker perspectives, diabetes education, and patient safety. The groups wrote the position paper because "most international clinical diabetes guidelines fail to address issues that are common in the elderly, including frailty, functional limitation, mental health changes, and increasing dependency," says an article by Medscape Medical News.
The authors, from the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, European Diabetes Working Party for Older People, and International Task Force of Experts in Diabetes, identified major research areas that need to be explored, including:
The authors note that although functional status and well-being are a major focus of experts in geriatric diabetes, the issue of glucose targets is a fundamental one that needs to be addressed.
The position paper is published in the July issue of Journal of the American Medical Directors Association.

Happy Music Monday! For some of us, November 23rd will always be remembered as the day the First Doctor took two teachers into his TARDIS and started a phenomenon. For others, you have no idea what the hell we're talking about in that sentence. For both groups, then, today's mix is all about Doctor Songs. See? Fans and non-fans alike can understand that.
Doctor And The Medics - Spirit In The Sky
If you can change into a new form, you don't have to worry so much about what awaits you in the sky when they lay you to rest. If you can't, this 80s cover might hold more meaning. Either way, that guitar part sure is catchy.
You'll find the inside of this post is bigger than the outside. So see you after the jump.
The Beatles - Doctor Robert
This doctor offers to make you a better person with his knowledge, but there's just a hint of danger and darkness on the side. Sound familiar?
Motley Crue - Dr. Feelgood
This doctor thinks laws don't apply to him and he can do anything he wants, as long as he makes you feel all right before he drops you off. There are rarely repercussions for his actions, because he's impossible to catch. Maybe he answers to a higher authority? Or maybe he only answers to himself.
Kiss - Calling Doctor Love
This doctor shows up when you call him, sure, but you're not his first companion and you certainly won't be his last. Also he's got a lot of wacky catchphrases for people to repeat. Hey, you don't go global without some crowdwork.
The Force MDs Meet The Fat Boys
Okay, okay, there IS a difference between The Doctor and a Medical Doctor. But I really like this song, and anyway, isn't Doctor Who all about travel, exploration, meeting strangers who speak a weird language and having fun? And anyway, I've got to leave a few doctor songs for you guys to post.
Help us say Happy Birthday to Doctor Who by posting your favorite doctor songs in the comments below. Then stop by our Turntable.fm room for the regular Music Monday enjoyment. Also, let us just remind you: some images come from the corresponding Wikipedia page and are here under fair use.
Well of course The Thompson Twins: but also Spirit -The Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus (does it count if it's an album and not a song?)
Bon Jovi - Bad Medicine
Doctor Worm!
"Witch Doctor" by David Seville and The Chipmunks "Doctorin' the Tardis" by The Timelords
I Don't Need No Doctor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXWKMwnWP4Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZMmV6xXYFw There are few other versions around

We have Dr. McCoy by S.P.O.C.K Who can forget the plea to the good Doctor to assist in the speedy resolution of a belly-ache via a homeopathic solution And a pre-chipmunk Dave Seville looking for assistance in the love department from the Witch Doctor

Ya can never go wrong with the Godfather of Soul, but let's give Dr. Detroit another shout out from DEVO
No "Dr. Jones" by Aqua? I read a few reviews a few years after they had fallen off the radar that "Dr. Jones" should have, by all rights, been the single released instead of "Candyman" which stuck them in pop-synth infamy. (I don't care, I love them anyway.) Oh, right. Dr. Who songs. :D Assuming that they don't require the Doctor in the title, anything by Chameleon Circuit applies. Vids or links to come later.
I give you: Amon Düül II Dr. Jeckyll Dr. Stein
