Debian's bigotness in not ditching the non-Linux kernels has caused it to become a backward distro as it cannot except advance software like systemd which are rejected by non-Linux kernels.
This benckmark is just one of many that shows that there is no advantage in supporting a bsd powered version in fact, supporting such a version drains precious human resources which should be directed at making linux better.
The inclusion of BSD licensed software is also likely to get Debian in alot of legal troubles.

The 76-year-old actor has more than 4.1 million Facebook followers who look forward to his clever thoughts on issues of the day, but many fans were disappointed to learn last week that Takei paid a ghost writer to to pen his jokes.
The news came to light when comedy writer Rick Polito admitted to writing "funny lines" for Takei at $10 a joke in a recent interview with Jim Romenesko.
Takei brushed aside criticism in an email to Wired last week:
What is this hoo-ha about my FB posts? I have Brad, my husband, to help me and interns to assist. What is important is the reliability of my posts being there to greet my fans with a smile or a giggle every morning. That's how we keep on growing.
Polito responded to the mini-controversy in another email to Romenesko.
"I wrote an apology to George and Brad and their guy said he'd pass it on. I just said that I'd been looking for any mention of my book I could get and that I hadn't meant to expose anything," Polito said.
"I don't update his page. I've had no direct contact with George. I've sent him some memes, as have other comedian types and I was happy for the exposure," he added.

About Coonawarra
View a map of Coonawarra wineriesLocated on the Limestone Coast of South Australia, Coonawarra is a pretty flat area, except for the vineyards, which are somewhat elevated. That, along with the proximity to the ocean and clouds that like to hang around, Coonawarra never gets too hot. There is a small strip of soil, about nine miles long and two miles wide, called Terra Rossa, or red soil/earth. It is the coveted place to plant Shiraz & Cabernet Sauvignon in this small region.

Anne-Frances Miller believes enzymes are catalysts extraordinaire. Consider the following: The industrial process used to make the vast quantities of fertilizer necessary to support agriculture worldwide involves exposing nitrogen gas (N2) to temperatures in excess of 400 degrees Celsius at 200 atmospheres of pressure. This illustrates the difficulty of breaking the triple bond in dinitrogen (second in strength only to that of carbon monoxide). Meanwhile, in the roots of leguminous plants, bacterial enzymes are carrying out the same chemical conversion at room temperature under standard pressure.
This is the reason that Miller will never cease to be fascinated by enzymes. "Their ability to speed up chemical reactions by factors of millions, billions or more gives biology access to chemistry that would be useless at uncatalyzed rates," she says.
However, Miller, an associate professor of chemistry at the University of Kentucky and director of the university's nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy facility, is quick to point out that proteins should not get all of the glory. "Many of the most marvelous enzymes subcontract out the dirty work," she says. "The most difficult chemistry is actually being executed by metal ions or organic cofactors. What the protein does is help select the proper substrate, focus the reactivity on the desired reaction and coordinate the reaction with other aspects of metabolism."
That partnership between the protein and its cofactor forms the basis of Miller's research interests. Using spectroscopic tools like NMR and electron paramagnetic resonance, which can reveal the details of the molecular interactions occurring at the interface of the protein and cofactor, Miller seeks to understand the mechanistic basis behind enzyme catalysis, particularly oxidation-reduction reactions.
And, by answering questions about, for example, how proteins guide the specificity of broadly reactive cofactors like metal ions or how a flavin's chemical properties change when it becomes associated with a protein, Miller hopes to figure out one of the most enduring mysteries in enzymology: how proteins can both activate and control such powerful chemical reactions.
"Take dioxygen, for example," Miller says. "Molecular oxygen is an extremely reactive molecule thermodynamically, but it also has a large kinetic barrier for activation. This is why it has accumulated to about 20 percent of our atmosphere. Because of that barrier, dioxygen holds a huge reservoir of potential energy."
"Then, look at proteins," she adds. "As reagents, they're pretty mild-mannered— we even eat them for breakfast. How can proteins catalyze reactions with oxygen and not get burned up?"
Fascinating! - Eric B

Real Teens Ask: Why Do Teens Who Smoke Think They Are So Cool?
Many teens have questions about drugs. On Drug Facts Chat Day, NIDA scientists get to listen in and answer these questions from students all across the country.
Here's one from "zippy do da" from Kingswood Middle School in New Hampshire:
Why do teens who smoke think they are so cool?
There could be many reasons why teens who smoke think they're cool—maybe their friends smoke, maybe their parents told them not to smoke, maybe they think it gives them an edgy look, or a temporary high. But the truth is, as far as your health goes—smoking is so not cool.
And who defines cool anyway? What's cool to one person may not be cool to another. Just as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, coolness is an individual decision. Not everyone thinks that doing something illegal or unhealthy because your friends are doing it is cool. Lots of teens would say it's cooler to hold a pen, paintbrush, or drum stick between your fingers, instead of a cigarette.
When our parents were younger, many of them thought "the Fonz" from the hit TV show "Happy Days" was the epitome of cool. Pretty dorky now.
Today it seems like a lot of teen smokers are figuring out that smoking is not very cool at all. According to a 2007 survey from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 50% of all high school smokers are actively trying to quit. And, according to the recent NIDA-funded Monitoring the Future study of 8th, 10th and 12th graders, smoking among American teens is at an all time low.
Coolness is a funny thing. Some things are cool one year (or one minute!), and not the next. Other things are cool no matter how much time has passed. What's cool is also influenced by your gender, age, where you live, and, most of all, by who you are. Check out how one high school student examined the cool factor as a science fair project—it even won her a cool prize. But don't take our word for it—you decide.
I dont know… smoking is so not cool! .. dancing is so cool, singing .. and much more or playing games
I think that stop promote smoking in all avdvertising because copy behavior.
I don't think so smoking is cool. These children who thinks that smoking is cool are lack of parental guidance and advice. Maybe they saw there parents also smoking. Or there parents are too busy working that they could not ask a single second for advice. So they asked to other people but unfortunately they gave them a wrong advice.
Most teens want to act like they are mature enough, that's why smoking for them make them look matured and cool but that's not the exact point of smoking. Some people smoke for their own purposes, like some people can think and solve their problem while they are smoking alone. Cheers!
Luckily slowly but surely with your help we are teaching our young people that smoking is not cool at all.
Thank you - spread the word.
Teen who smoked feel that they have reached adulthood and ready to take the future in their own hand.
smoking is manily cause of peer pressure
most people say i wont be your best friend if you dont have one and stuff like that
I know that smoking is not cool! It messes up your brain and ruins your life. Right now im 15 and a lot of people think that smoking is like so so cool. I know a lot of people that do it ( even though theyre parents dont approve of it) and that doesnt bother them any. I think that they need to quit and im trying to help them. One thing that i ahd noticed is that when you talk to them they have a craving for it and also they cant quit. So I told them about this website and thanks to you guys they have quit finnaly! Im so glad that I have my real friends back!!
I like this blog a lot. It is true that they feel that they are cool but it is wrong and they are not aware that they are spoiling their life. I regularly check it out for new updates.
i think that people that smock are so stooped and do not no the stuff it can do to u
Smoking is never cool . U never when about to die every time u smoke u still is killing ur self
I'm 14 and I smoke. I'm in great health, both physically and mentally. I'm a brown belt in karate and am in all advanced classes. I don't think smoking makes you cool. I smoke to calm down. I won't quit smoking.
You may be in "great" health now but by the time you are in your 20's it will really affect your life.
[deleted disrespectful references]
I'm involved with Karate and Martial Arts. They make it cool not to smoke. It's easier when you hang around others who think the same as you.
[commercial link removed, per guidelines]
I think if more people were involved in sports and MMA then less people would smoke.
Hang out with like minded people in a martial arts training environment and you will quickly quit smoking too like I did over 20 years ago.
[commercial link removed, per guidelines]
smoking is NOT cool because of all of its effects!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D :D :D :( :( :( :) :) :) XD xD to random?
i;m just ganna be like everyone else! xD smoking!! is sooo not cool, maybe they should promote the truth like smoking can shrinkin the size of your penis.
idont know why they smoke do u know why they do it beause i want to know "BE DRUG FREE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Smoking actually is bad!! Like have you seen the commercial of people who smoked for a long time... they end up getting a hole in their neck to help them breath and they are tortured by not breathing well :( that's sad ... and I send this message to all teen smokers...
the only thing i hate is the people who smoke.people think there so cool but there not
Omg u won't get a hole in ur neck!!! N I'm in advanced classes n I smoke. I have good health! Yea I get sick sometimes but everyone does NOT just smokers. I know people who don't smoke and they get sick MORE then I do. A lot of people just over react about smoking. Yes I do agree it's bad to smoke but u won't get a ole in ur neck. I posted this bcuz I hate how people over react and make stuff up like that. It's annoying cause it's NOT true!!
smoking isn't cool just because you don't smoke does'nt mean you can't hang out with the cool kids. besides what makes the think they are cool? SMOKING!!!!!!!!!??????? NO!!!!!! Maybe you wanna live longer.
I swear, I will NEVER EVER smoke in my entire life! >_< My family members have died from smoking....my grandpa drowned in his own fluids. It was really sad. I made a vow that I would never smoke....
I know smoking is not cool...thats one of the reasons we smoke. To not conform, relax, boredom, and my favorite reason to smoke is to practice smoke tricks!! I love going out on break at work and blowing smoke rings and such....so relaxing after working. And yes I am a GIRL! :)
My friend smoke I wish they can spot but they want. I wish I can help them. I use to smoke but know I don't. I think it was cool because my friend dose it. My sister friend told my mom and dad that I smoke. I got I trouble. So don't smoke.
(read sarcasticly) cause every body just loves to walk around coughing their lungs out
I am 26 btw.
I hate when kids (around 12-15) say i use to smoke, but i quit. OR, I smoke, and I am healthy. OR "crave a smoke when im in school, so i cant quit. You are 14! You are NOT addicted! You are healthy still, becuz you only have been smoking for "MAYBE" a year! And you quit becuz you are not addicted! I have been smoking since i was 17, and i have quit smoking for about 1 month, and I couldnt take it. The longer you smoke, the more addicted you will become, and the more un-healthy you will become. It takes awhile for you to become addicted to ciggs. It dont happen overnight, or a week, or even two weeks. I use to smoke to relieve stress, but now i am just so addicted, and so use to smoking, and keep doing it. But smoking does relax me. But i think thats just becuz i am so use to smoking.
@TheTechGenius You make a good point about nicotine—it is an extremely addictive drug and, like all drugs of abuse, the transition from casual use to addiction can come at any time, depending on the person.
O.k You people Change your reactions just by reading this simple article.I Don't smoke and i promised my self i never will its no biggie i just don't like the fact the smoking what ever that is you smoke is just a bad idea.I mean like these kind of things are useless. Everything in life takes its place.Smoking to me is rather stupid. I know i'm no god to tell why smoking is wrong or why smoking is cool. But my basic point that i'm trying to say that the word cool has changed everybody's dictionary on the word cool. Just think about it cool is another refrence for the word cold or in otherwise chill. By all means you can keep smoking but in so many ways its never going to help you can say its medicine. No its non-sense and it gets me mad Trust me any kind of drug/Smoking suppliments are very bad for you in so many ways. So use your brain and think (Why should I spend my time smoking when there's no cause)

Former Rangers Draft picks Lewis, Danks square off
Two former top Draft picks of the Rangers will face each other on Tuesday, when Colby Lewis pitches against John Danks at U.S. Cellular Field.
Lewis was the 38th overall pick by the Rangers in 1999, although his current tenure in Texas began when he was signed as a free agent out of Japan in 2010. Danks was the Rangers' first-round pick (ninth overall) in 2003; he was traded to the White Sox on Dec. 23, 2006.
Both pitchers find themselves in interesting situations. Lewis, who missed 18 months because of elbow and hip surgery, will be a free agent after the season and is starting to show that he might be worth re-signing.
Lewis is 1-2 with a 3.44 ERA in three starts since the All-Star break after going 6-6 with a 6.54 ERA in 16 first-half starts. His opponents' batting average has gone from .353 before the break to .235 following the Midsummer Classic.
"I feel like my location is the key," Lewis said. "I have been able to keep the ball down on both sides of the plate. I have been getting stronger as the game goes along and as the year goes along."
That's what the Rangers are going to be looking at over the next two months. If Lewis continues to pitch like this, it increases the chances of him returning.
"I feel like I've done what I need to do to get back and be healthy," he said. "[Texas] is home. We'll see what the end of the year brings, what the front office wants to do and what direction they are going. This is where I want to be."
Danks is signed for the next two years and will make $14.25 million in each of them, but the White Sox did explore the possibility of trading him before the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline. He was happy when nothing materialized that interested the White Sox.
"This is where I'm comfortable," Danks said. "I've gotten to know a lot of lifelong friends here, and I'm happy to be here."
Of course, that doesn't preclude a trade happening in August. Players can be dealt if they pass through waivers, though it's unlikely that a club will claim Danks, because it would be responsible for the rest of his contract. That could be the biggest obstacle to a trade right now.
"It's always hard to say [goodbye] to guys," he said. "We are together with them more than we are with our families. You get to know all the guys in here, and you kind of build a friendship with everybody and certainly hate to see people go. But fortunately, we don't have to worry about that."
White Sox: Bullpen trying to bounce back
The White Sox made a roster move on Monday, calling up pitcher Maikel Cleto from Triple-A Charlotte and sending down pitcher Taylor Thompson. The move comes one day after the White Sox bullpen allowed 15 runs in a loss to the Twins.
The outing left White Sox relievers with a 4.30 ERA on the season. That would be their highest since 2007. The 15 runs were the most allowed by a bullpen in one game.
"It can be tough at times, but that's part of your job -- go back out and find a way to do it," manager Robin Ventura said. "You get a clean slate, and you go back out and do it. It's harder to do sometimes than other times, but when it's hard, that's when you really need to pull up and be able to do it. On the other hand, there's not another option. You either go out and face it, or you don't play baseball anymore. It's pretty simple."
Rangers: Arencibia still wants to catch
J.P. Arencibia was out of the lineup on Monday so that Mike Carp could start at first base. Arencibia, a right-handed hitter, is expected to be in there on Tuesday against left-hander Danks and again on Wednesday against lefty Chris Sale.
Arencibia will be playing first base, his primary position since being recalled from Triple-A on July 17, even though he has been a catcher for his entire professional career.
"I want to catch," Arencibia said, "but right now I'll do anything to help the team -- play first, DH, center field, shortstop. Just get in the lineup and help."
For a few days, Arencibia will serve as the backup catcher, as Chris Gimenez left the team to be with his wife, Kellie, who is close to giving birth. Gimenez will likely miss the entire White Sox series. Manager Ron Washington will likely go with Robinson Chirinos as his catcher for all three games. Gimenez caught the last two games in Cleveland.
Worth noting:
• Danks is 33-41 at U.S. Cellular Field, for a .446 winning percentage. That's the lowest all-time among White Sox pitchers with at least 100 starts at home in club history.
• On Monday, for the 35th time this season, the Rangers lost a game in which they once led. That's most in the Major Leagues, six more than the White Sox and Blue Jays.
• Texas' Elvis Andrus has an 11-game hitting streak.

The body of an Elk Grove man that was discovered by a National Forest Service employee on patrol at Mt Morrison Cemetery Saturday was likely a suicide, according to the Mono County Sheriff's Department.
According to the sheriff's department, the details go like this.
This is how government and bureaucracies work:
At WednesdayŌĆÖs town council meeting, the members considered a proposal that they create a new committee, this one called ŌĆ£The Town Council and Planning Commission Liaison Committee.ŌĆØ
Planning Commission Chair Tony Barrett and Vice Chair Jay Deinken put it before the council.
They argued that the creation of such a committee ŌĆ£can ensure the effective and efficient completion of the Fiscal Year 2010-11 Budget Work Program.ŌĆØ
Even as MammothŌĆÖs town council moved to approve an agreement to subsidize some air service flights this week, county supervisors had three words to say:
ŌĆ£Not so fast.ŌĆØ
At a Tuesday discussion centered around Mammoth MountainŌĆÖs request that the county help subsidize air service, splitting it three ways with the town government and the Mountain, it was clear the supervisors arenŌĆÖt ready to go there, not yet and perhaps, not at all.
Herre's the latest in gossip, news and idle speculations from our cozy little burg.
Hot rumor around town is that by 2012 weŌĆÖll have a state-of-the-art 10- to 12-lane bowling alley, with restaurant and lounge and three upstairs bays for simulated golf. How hot is the rumor? Scalding. .. . Why the S.F. flight matters: John Eastman was at the airport this past week, catching a flight to L.A., when he ran into a passel of New Jersey club skiers who always wanted to try Mammoth. One connection to SFO, then the non-stopper to Newark. ...
Melissa Margulies is going to the Super Bowl. Not to watch, but to play.
SheŌĆÖs a rookie star on the Los Angeles Temptation football team.
L.A. plays the Philadelphia Passion during half time. The teams are part of the Lingerie Football League.
Margulies, who grew up in Mammoth and ran track at MHS, as well as USC, always wanted to play pro baseball. SheŌĆÖs not far off, as both safety and running back for the Temptation.
Police Chief Dan Watson didnŌĆÖt get exactly what he wanted from the Town Council Wednesday evening, but at least he got something.
ThatŌĆÖs more than he got in his first two tries before the council, on Dec. 15 and Jan. 19, when the chief tried to figure out a way to add some muscle to his force.
On both those occasions, the council turned him down flat.
But on Wednesday, after yet another proposal from Watson, the council approved filling the MLPDŌĆÖs open lieutenant position from within and adding a sergeant.
While much of the rest of the country got walloped by a massive winter storm this week, the Sierra remained stuck in a stubborn dry pattern that shows no signs of breaking anytime soon.
Even the groundhog in Punxsutawney didnŌĆÖt see his shadow meaning, if groundhogs can be believed, that winter will end soon.
But the huge snows that hit the Sierra back in December were enough to, so far at least, protect the state of California, which gets 30 percent of its water from the Sierra Nevada mountains.
How do we know?
Members of the Recreation Commission began to wrap their heads around implementing the townŌĆÖs recreation vision on Wednesday afternoon.
The commission met with Carl Ribaldo and Austin McInerney of the Strategic Marketing Group, along with facilitator, former Tourism and Recreation director Danna Stroud.
The consulting group walked the commission through the steps and guidelines that would make the so-called ŌĆ£RecStratsŌĆØ document a viable recreation road map by August.
We know a guy who keeps a list of the worst jobs in the world, or, if not the worst jobs, jobs he would never do, for whatever reason.
TheyŌĆÖre the ones you might expect: summer highway construction in South Dakota; working the blood pit in your neighborhood slaughterhouse; working timber on the SierraŌĆÖs (hot) west side.
WeŌĆÖve got another one: Town Manager.
ThereŌĆÖs a reason why town managers last only four or five years on average.
Kaya Turski won the silver medal Thursday in slopestyle at the FIS freestyle skiing world championships in Utah.
Turski scored 41.70 points in the final as she navigated the obstacle course of rails, jumps and other features. Athletes are judged on their tricks in the terrain park.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm very happy, I landed my run and I skied how I wanted to ski,ŌĆØ Turski, the X Games gold medallist, said in a news release.
ThereŌĆÖs this thing about PatrolmenŌĆÖs.
It a little gem of a black diamond groomer run that parallels Chair 2/Stump Alley Express, and itŌĆÖs so tucked away that not many skiers find it, even on a crowded day.
The reason the cognoscenti like it so much is that they can make of it what they want. Ski it one way, and itŌĆÖs more of an advanced intermediate than black.
Ski it another way and thereŌĆÖs freestyle and tree skiing to be had.
But the real pull on PatrolmenŌĆÖs is that a skier can generate some ungodly speed as the run bends its way onto a wide approach to Chair 2.
You canŌĆÖt exactly call them the Twin Towers, because theyŌĆÖre hardly ever on the basketball court at the same time.
But Mammoth Huskies Alejandro and Francisco (ŌĆ£CiscoŌĆØ) Flores are most definitely identical twins, so much so that coach Jason Patterson has needed to devise a few tricks for telling them apart.
ŌĆ£They wear different colored shoes,ŌĆØ Patterson said, ŌĆ£so thatŌĆÖs how I can tell them apart most of the time. ŌĆ£And they wear their hair slightly differently.ŌĆØ
A first time visitor to a Husky practice wouldnŌĆÖt know, though.
ItŌĆÖs early in the game, but itŌĆÖs likely that Mammoth will host a 10-day running camp this summer.
And if it goes ahead, it wonŌĆÖt be like any other running camp anywhere.
ŌĆ£I want it to be more than just going to a fat farm, said Visit MammothŌĆÖs John Urdi.
ŌĆ£They should be coming here and enjoying the hiking we have, the cycling, maybe even fishing.
ŌĆ£Maybe on one of the days the runners would go into Yosemite and maybe do some running in the Valley. ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs lots of possibilities.ŌĆØ
The tentative ŌĆō very tentative ŌĆō name for the camp is a ŌĆ£Fit-cation,ŌĆØ he said.
MammothŌĆÖs athletes took to the Colorado mountains and the Texas marathon courses last weekend, and the results can be summarized in two words.
ŌĆ£Crushed it,ŌĆØ said Mammoth Recreation Manager Stuart Brown.
Johnny Teller (ski cross) and Kaya Turski (ski slopestyle) took gold medals at the Winter X-Games in Aspen, while Tyler Flanagan took home a bronze in snowboard slopestyle.
Meanwhile, in Houston, the Mammoth Track ClubŌĆÖs Jen Rhines won the U.S. Half Marathon Championships, establishing her personal best.
On the menŌĆÖs side, Patrick Smyth of the Mammoth Track Club placed third.
A Crowley Lake local, Jeff Wheeler, died from a self-inflicted gun shot wound last Thursday, according to the The Mono County SheriffŌĆÖs Department.
On Thursday, Jan. 27, at approximately 8:20 am, a Mono County SheriffŌĆÖs Deputy was dispatched to 325 Sierra Springs Drive for a welfare check. Jeff Wheeler, 40, was found deceased in his bed from a self-inflicted gun-shot wound to the head.
Further death details are under investigation.

John Frieda Frizz-Ease Hair Serum Extra Strength Formula
JuliannaHairDark BrownDry HairFine or Thin HairOne Of The Best Hair Products I Have Tried Yet!My hair is about 6 inches past my shoulders, wavy and slightly on the dry side. I try not to blow dry my hair as I am afraid of drying it out, but when I let it air dry my waves are full of frizz. I initially bought this product to try and remove that frizz from my waves. After using it I did not find that it removed much of the frizz however after straightening my hair I was very impressed with the results. It seemed to work better as a heat protector because my hair was very soft, sleek and shiny and it stayed that way the whole day. Would I recommend this product? I would not recommend it just as a frizz fighter. But I would recommend it as a heat protecter and shine booster because it works fantastically for that purpose.posted Apr 20, 2012Link to this post
DianeHairDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairGreatI have thick, curly, and wavy hair that frizzes mostly in the front.

AnnaExcellent!I absolutely LOVE this serum. I have thick wavy - EXTREMELY FRIZZY- hair. I've been trying several brands and products to tame the frizz, but never found a solution other than relaxing. This works very well, makes my hair look shiny and helps SO much with the frizz! I use a little when it's damp, a little when it's dry, and that's it. One bottle lasts a long time too, because you don't need to use too much. Just a little and you'll see the difference. It might not work for some people, but it does for me, and I'll keep using it.posted Nov 3, 2009Link to this post
MixedHairAfrican AmericanRelaxed HairGreat For Humid WeatherI use this when I straighten my hair before and after. I live in georgia so it is always humid so I carry this everywhere with me and I apply it before I go outside and after. I'm half black and Japanese so this works really great for me. Try not to use big squits because then it will make your hair oily. This product also has my hair shiny and it really doesn't have a smell . :)posted Oct 11, 2009Link to this post

Haha...bad monkey memory.

Watched Waynes World I forgot how awesome this movie is.
Kill Bill Vol. 1 10/10Kill Bill Vol. 2 9/10
ALMOST FAMOUS on TV now.A freaking MASTERPIECE this movie is and it's full of amazing actresses. H3LL, Anna Paquin, Zooey Deschanel, Fairuza Balk, Frances McDormand and the awesome Kate Hudson which delivers the best performance she has ever done. A classic, Crowe is a brilliant director.666.666.666/10
I really dug that movie. Got to see it for free; won tickets off a radio station when I lived in Canada by naming all three songs and their respective artists playing at the same time (Paradise City by Guns 'n Roses, Hide by Colin James and Good Man Feeling Bad, by Tom Cochrane ). Really enjoyed it -- especially the scene on the bus where they all sing Tiny Dancer.
Great flick.
Oh that's cool!!!One scene I really love is when they're in the plane. So freaking funny. And the end when he goes to his home, wonderful.
I think what impressed my ex about me winning those tickets most of all was that I was from the states, and I knew both Colin James AND Tom Cochran, plus two obscure songs of theirs.
Really like that bus scene too, Lon.
^^^ Saw Dave Grohl on a talk show one night (Letterman, I think) where he said he wanted to recreate such a moment for the studio audience, so he took the stage and sang Tiny Dancer with the audience. Thought that was really cool of him.
I should check that out later.
It's definitely a great song. And the way they did it in the movie is just beyond words.
Eh, liked it for what it was. Roland Emmerich everyone. 5/10
Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes
The Peanut Butter Solution (1985) - I dug this up after haveing very vague memories of it as a small child. I remebered maybe two scenes frok the whole movie. It was nice to see it again and its very different, strange and fun little flick.
10,000 BCEh, liked it for what it was. Roland Emmerich everyone. 5/10
CAAAMILLA BELLE and the awesome Sabertooth guy. Always loved this film.
Funny cause now on TV there's another CAAAMILLA BELLE's movie, the amazingly great PUSH with sweet Dakota Fanning and that human torch actor Evans. Another great 2009 movie. What a crazy year, very few that were bad from then. Crazy story about people with abilities. Freaking cool abilities. Rad bad guys. Really amazing performances by my lovely Dakota and Camilla. 666/10
Shakes the Clown....that's mainstream, right?
^^^No idea, haven't seen. YET!!!
THE MAJESTIChttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0268995/
What an amazing movie. Fantastic performance by Carrey, Laurie Holden, Landau and all the others. Fabulous storyline and dialogs.And the soundtrack OH MAN WOOOAAAHHH!!! Especially the song right after the get the statue out, before the opening. Wondeful cabaret jazz like I love. And the opening, with none other than the extraordinary Street Car Named Desire. Should watch it back I love this flick.
So yeah, those that never saw it should do right now. It's brilliant.666.666.666/10
@Punk, I love The Majestic, man. I've always been fan (since when it first came out, that is). Great cast, solid script/writing, etc. Plus, being a massive Jim Carrey fan, I found it an easy film to appreciate.
^^^Carrey is the best canadian actor ever made in the universe for me. Too good in everything he does. Man, The Mask, woaaah how can you not worship him.
Shogun Assassin 2 - Very slow paced, but in the end, the payoff is worth it. Great final battle, the cool thing about Ogomi Itto that sets him apart from other action movie characters is that in other action flicks there is always tbat one bad guy or villian that is actually tough enough to put up a fierce fight against the hero. Thats not been the case so far in this series, Ogami dispatches his enemies quickly with very little effort...he is pure bad ass!!
Life of Pi (2012) - A very different and truely great adventure flick...Ang Lee almost redeems himself after HULK.

"Ingenious . . . Nothing is predictable. All bets are off."—Janet Maslin, The New York Times
"A legal thriller that's comparable to classics such as Scott Turow's Presumed Innocent . . . Tragic and shocking, Defending Jacob is sure to generate buzz."—Associated Press
"Stunning . . . a novel that comes to you out of the blue and manages to keep you reading feverishly until the whole thing is completed."—The Huffington Post
"Gripping . . . [Landay] keeps you turning the pages through the shocking gut-punch of an ending."—Entertainment Weekly
"Gripping, emotional murder saga . . . The shocking ending will have readers pulling up their bedcovers to ward off the haunting chill."—People
"The hype is justified. . . . Exceptionally serious, suspenseful, engrossing."—The Washington Post
"Not since Scott Turow has a crime thriller—any thriller, though this too happens to be a literary legal thriller—shaken me by the throat like this. It's a stunning, shocking, emotionally harrowing ride in which the reader is plunged into a riveting but terrible murder trial and the equally heartbreaking implosion of a loving family."—Daily Mail
"Even with unexpected twists and turns, the two narratives interlock like the teeth of a zipper, building to a tough and unflinching finale. This novel has major motion picture written all over it."—The Boston Globe
"[William] Landay does the seemingly impossible by coming up with a new wrinkle in the crowded subgenre of courtroom thrillers. . . . It's inevitable that he'll be compared to Scott Turow, but this novel succeeds on its own merits."—Kirkus Reviews
1. How would you have handled this situation if you were Andy? Would you make the same choices he made? Where would you differ the most?
2. Before and during the trial, how would you have handled the situation if you were Laurie? Do you feel she made strong choices as a mother and a wife?
3. Is Andy a good father? Why or why not?
4. Do you believe Jacob is guilty?
5. Is Jacob a product of his upbringing? Do you think he is a violent person because his environment made him violent, or do you think he has had violent inclinations since birth?
6. How do you think people could or should stop adolescent bullying?
7. How much of a factor did Jacob's age play into your sympathies for him or lack thereof? If Jacob were seventeen, would you view him differently? What about if he were nine?
8. Do you think Neal Logiudice acts ethically in this novel? What about Andy?
9. What is the most damning piece of evidence against Jacob? Is there anything that you felt exonerated him?
10. If Jacob hadn't been accused, how do you think his life would have turned out? What kind of a man do you think he would grow up to be?

When matty had their contest, I created a similar character, but never sent it in.
As I explained in the Snake Goddess thread ( http://www.he-man.org/forums/boards/...-the-Snake-Men ), I discovered this character and since we need a female character in the Snake Men faction, I think that she can be a cool addition!
I know that our first goal is the vintage figures but maybe she can be a travelling figure and she can be easy to made with Captain Glenn body, the female Fighting Foe Men loincloth and the Battleground Teela harness!
We need just a new head and the Black Crystal!

Most Wanted Filmation: Lord Masque, Ileena, Granita, General Sunder, Teela, He-Man, Skeletor, Hordak head.
No Slave Girl? Watch us hurl!
A barbaric world without slave girls? That's truly barbaric!
Yes. Looks pretty doable too, just alter BG Teela a bit, sculpt in some jewelry, some scales and the Medusa hair, new paint, voila!
Snakes for sure need some female representation. I mean if Hiss had a prisioner girl, there must be female members of his clan.....
She'd be a great addition to their ranks.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
In a way it would be interesting that the snake men have a snake goddess, because all of the snake men are all male.

I voted yes but it was more for a female snakeman than this one in particular. Particularly for the one I made for the contest HEHEHHEHEH
But certainly, it would be cool.
More importantly I won't be heartbroken if it doesnt happen.
Very, very cool. I'd definitely purchase one if she were made. Too many dudes in the Snake Men, although if we add her in we have to start calling them the Snake People.
I wouldn't mind a SG, custom looks interesting but as you put it ~ at some point (down the track).
Most Wanted MOTU Classics:
*MotU ~ Multi-Bot/Tung Lashor *PoP ~ Angella/Mermista *200X ~ Roboto/Calix *Filmation ~ Teela Na/Lord Masque
*Play-Sets ~ Snake Mountain/Fright Zone *Vehicles ~ Roton/Land Shark *Beasts ~ Night Stalker/Stridor
I'd like to have her some day but she is a very very very low priority.
No, just the orginal six plus Blast Attack
The lack of a female in that faction is a big reason why I don't care for the Snake Men. If they did this Snake Goddess AND the King Hss' Slave Girl (who I think of as a "pet" that looks human but can tear a man to pieces when her face transforms) then I would be really, REALLY excited for that army.
Etherian Rebel JOSH for the MOTUC (see my avatar)!
I think she would be an awesome arch enemy of Green Goddess. I wanna know more about the staff of Ka!
I think I learnt more about being a good person from He-man, then I did in church.
Yes please.
I voted yes. And I saw someone post a pic of an Empress for the Snakemen. I loved that idea.
Nice Custom!
Well in addition to her, I also have a female snake in mind named Vypra! and IMO, I have it the female members are even more vicious than the males.
'Tis the wind and nothing more.....
I'd absolutely want a figure of her and hope she gets made someday. It wouldn't happen until 2016 at the earliest though, since characters like this aren't part of the focus for 2014 & 2015.

KA The Snake Goddess
My fake bio
Real Name: Ka Boathon
Ka was once a pristess for the Castle Grayskull, until she craved the power of the Elders. Ka attempted to steal the power, but was foiled by Veena. She was there for banished and sentenced to exile for her actions, then just when she thought she could go no farther, King Hsss find her. Though King Hsss only used her as a slave, Serpos the Snake god had other ideas for her. Serpos would make her a snake goddess by use of the Serpent Ring, in exchange Ka would plage her loyalty to the Snake Men cause, and help them rule Eternia. Ka accepted, and became the snake goddess, with her staff, shield and magical black crystal to help her, Ka would prove to Serpos, King Hsss and the other Snake Men that she can do anything for them. In time Ka gained the respects of Serpos and King Hsss. But in her final battle, Veena would snatch the black crystal from Ka, and use a powerful spell to shut off it's magic. With Ka powerless, she would use what little magic left to put herself in great slumber, until her magic is restored in the black crystal. Then eight centuries later, during the return of the Snake Men. King Hsss and his army were regrouping after the return of Hordak and the Horde, Hsss realized he need an advantage, with the help of Snake Man-At-Arms, they were able to obtain a page from Shadow Weaver's to restore the magic in the Black Crystal, and awaken Ka the Snake goddess from her long slumber, to conquer Eternia for her Snake Men people.

Music Review: Brilliance of Stravinsky deliveredCaroline Whiddon photo
Ronald Braunstein rehearses the ME2/strings at the University of Vermont Recital Hall in Burlington.BURLINGTON The ME2/strings and their music director, Ronald Braunstein, proved artists of skill and depth Saturday at the University of Vermont Recital Hall, in a brilliant performance of a complex and masterful Stravinsky ballet.
This was the third program in the first season of the ME2/strings, a chamber orchestra made up of 25 professional string players from around the region, created by Braunstein. In Saturdays concert, they went further, technically and musically, than in their previous two programs.
Igor Stravinskys 1927-1928 Apollon Musagete was commissioned by Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge for a contemporary music festival at the Library of Congress. The 10-movement ballet, based on Greek mythology, is a masterpiece of intimate and subtle classicism, the antithesis of the composers brilliant, raucous and bawdy Rite of Spring though no less moving.
Braunstein led his fine players deftly with precision as well as an innate sense of the works drama and sensual beauty. Although the work is full of striking, sometimes haunting dissonances, there is an overall sheen of purity and beauty. Braunstein successfully maintained this ethereal quality, at the same time accentuating the inner machinations that drove the drama.
The orchestras instrumentalists delivered the necessary precision and clarity as well as the works subtleties and drama. Concertmaster Jane Bearden played the many violin solos effectively and beautifully, often matched by the other principals. This was a magnificent performance of a great masterpiece.
Most familiar, though, was Dvoraks Serenade for Strings, Opus 22. Braunstein and his strings thoroughly enjoyed the overt lyricism of this crowd-pleaser, as well as the Bohemian harmonies that give it its rich beauty. The performance wasnt as refined in its sound quality or precision as the Stravinsky, and there were overwrought moments (such as at the end of the Larghetto), but it was a joyful and rewarding performance.
The concert opened with a charming performance of another popular gem, Respighis Ancient Airs and Dances, Suite III (Italiana). The playing was spirited, precise and lyrical.
Vermont is fortunate to have a new ensemble of such a high caliber.
The ME2/strings, conducted by Ronald Braunstein, will perform Mozarts Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Tchaikovskys Souvenir de Florence and Vaughan Williams Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 11, at the University of Vermont Recital Hall in Burlington.

Cornell University (pronounced /kÉ"rˈnÉ›l/ kor-nel) is an Ivy League university located in Ithaca, New York, United States. It is a private land-grant university, receiving annual funding from the State of New York for certain educational missions. Founded in 1865 by Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White, the university was intended to teach and make contributions in all fields of knowledge ‐ from the classics to the sciences and from the theoretical to the applied. These ideals, unconventional for the time, are captured in Cornell's motto, an 1865 Ezra Cornell quotation: "I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study." Since its founding, Cornell has also been a co-educational, non-sectarian institution where admission is offered irrespective of religion or race. Cornell counts more than 255,000 living alumni, 31 Marshall Scholars, 28 Rhodes Scholars and 41 Nobel laureates as affiliated with the university. The student body consists of over 13,000 undergraduate and 6,000 graduate students from all 50 states and 122 countries. (Excerpt from Wikipedia article: Cornell University)

This is the combination of a donkey punch and a snowmobile. While the guy is ravaging the chick from behind (the chick is on all fours), he gives her a donkey punch. Right when she recieves the punch, the man uses his other arm to sweep the chick's arms out from underneath her in one smooth move. Then, much to her dismay, she falls.
While Joel was ravaging his new woman from behind, he pulled out his best move ever: the donkey mobile. This ensured that she was very confused, and it made him a proud man.

The type of games I (occasionally) play are games like Braid, etc. Small games that could be either native or not. I'm not much of a gamer though. My highest concern is video (I watch many movies), either online or on the laptop.
Tearing has been mention, that is also my problem when running fglrx. I run Ubuntu 10.04, KDE 4.4.4. No solution works to prevent tearing in fglrx. Last time I tried the open-source drivers was during 9.10, I had updated the kernel to the latest. I don't remember which one that was, I think 2.6.32.
How long do you think it would realistically take for the open-source drivers to have equal or better than capability (in terms of power management) in comparison to fglrx?
Also, I have long been of the opinion that if the open-source drivers ever do become equal to or better than the fglrx, it means that AMD had planned from the start to eventually cancel their proprietary drivers and will indeed cancel their drivers. I base this opinion on the lack of resources they spend on the drivers and the difference between open-source/proprietary drivers lessening with each release. What is your opinion about that?
The "lack of resources" issue is a bit of a red herring. The key issue to remember is that fglrx in its current form is quite new compared to other binary drivers. The first time the new code became visible to users was less than 3 years ago, when the new OpenGL stack was enabled for the first time. As long as the developers are focusing on foundation code may not see as much apparent progress as you would like on consumer bug fixes or early support for new distro versions, but you would be making a mistake if you thought that indicated a lack of resources being applied to the driver - it's just not being applied in the most visible places.
There was a period a year or so ago in the open source driver evoluation where everyone was complaining just as loudly, since over half of the development effort was going into supporting a new internal architecture rather than addressing end-user issues, and there were probably times when things seemed to be getting worse rather than better.
The fglrx driver is still seeing relatively more work put into foundation code than into "polishing", for the same reasons as applied to the open source stack -- it doesn't make sense to polish a code base that is going to be replaced anyways.
When we kicked off the latest open source graphics project a few years ago I think I said we were expecting to see 80% of the functionality with 10% of the code, or something like that, and things still seem to be heading in that direction. We're probably at 60% of the functionality and 5% of the code right now.
I don't think it's realistic to expect the open source drivers to become "better than fglrx" across the board, but since the open source drivers have the luxury of being able to target a subset of the user base (ie they don't have to compete in the workstation market) they are able to focus on consumer-specific use cases and deliver a better experience in the short term in those specific areas, and the developers have been doing just that (very successfully IMO). Even so, I don't think you can extrapolate what you see and conclude that the open source drivers will overtake and replace the proprietary drivers in all usage scenarios, particularly high performance / high functionality 3D.
Just happened to notice a MASSIVE framerate improvement in Alien Arena 7.40
The center area of the Purgatory map would dip down to 18 fps with 10.4 (with no bot/player, only the scenery), in 10.5 in the same conditions it never drops under 37 fps, and then that's because I'm shooting rockets.
Pretty neat :D
Hello everyone, new guy here so please be patient and as clear as possible
I have installed Lucid, 64 bit
CPU is AMD x3 720 black
My video card is the ATI radeon hd 4870 1gb ddr5
First issue
Whe i first install ubuntu, my splash screen is 1920x1200, but on loading the OS, they ask me to install hardware drivers some fglrx or something like that iirc, and the splash screen is like a centred low res quare.
2nd issue
When i enable compiz effects, maximising and minimising is slow, i also get choppiness when i'm moving windows around.
I've downloaded the 10.5 x86_64 bi driver, and ran the command sudo sh (blablabla.run) to install, problem not solved. I ended up getting 2 pairs of catalyst control centres. I started from fresh, ignoring the initial fglrx hardware driver prompt and went straight into installing the 10.5 drivers. Still doesn't work.
What do i do? why is this so complicated to set up? :/ any help will be appreciated
Not sure what you mean by "complicated to set up" - all indications are that your initial setup was successful. With current distros any driver using XAA acceleration is going to see delays when running under Compiz, but there is an X server patch which eliminates the delays.
2 control centres might be an indication that you didn't remove the repository version of the drivers properly (unless one of the entries was for AMDCCCLE with admin rights, which is normal). Did you pull all the packages needed to build the drivers? Here's a good source for help with installation: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu
Could you be more specific about what "still doesn't work"? Do you mean the choppiness? Or general broken display?
I'd have to see a screen shot of what you are talking about here, but if it looks anything like it does on my pc it shouldn't really be a problem. This is probably caused by the splash screen falling back to low res because it could not detect a KMS (kernel mode setting) driver.
This is a known bug in the xserver. There is a patch available somewhere. It sounds like an upcoming version of fglrx will have a workaround.
Never, ever use the binary provided by AMD to install on an Ubuntu based machine, it will do silly things that will mess up your system. Either use Jockey, or the script provided by Kano for your installation needs.
I don't know what you mean by complicated. Using Jockey to install fglrx is very easy, and is the safest way to get the binary driver working.

ThinkCure! Weekend 2014 will take place August 22-23 at Dodger Stadium and will raise money to fund collaborative cancer research for City of Hope and Children's Hospital Los Angeles.
A series of fundraising events will take place during the Dodgers weekend home games against the New York Mets on Friday and Saturday including in-stadium auctions. Throughout ThinkCure! Weekend, spectators will have several opportunities to donate. Volunteers will be available throughout Dodger Stadium to accept in-person donations and provide more information about ThinkCure!
To purchase tickets for ThinkCure! Weekend, select a game below.
New for 2014, you don't have to be in attendance to donate. Visit www.thinkcure.org to make a donation, and you can win prizes like a Disneyland 3-Day Park Hopper Ticket with admission for two adults and two children, a two-park combo gold pass for a family to Six Flags Magic Mountain and Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, or a Knott's Berry Farm Season Pass!
ThinkCure! is an innovative, community-based non-profit organization that raises funds for collaborative research aimed at finding a cure for cancer. Our vision is to bring Southern Californians together to work towards a common cause to cure children and adults with cancer. Our partners and beneficiaries, City of Hope and Children's Hospital Los Angeles, are two of the leading cancer research institutions.
Since our inception we have worked with Dodger fans towards a common cause - to cure children and adults with cancer. We have granted over 1.5 Million dollars to cancer research, funding collaborative and innovative projects with Children's Hospital Los Angeles and City of Hope. We are calling on everyone in our community to get involved and make a difference in our fight against cancer.
Even if we don't quite know exactly what the cure will look like, victory is within our reach. Today, more than 11.1 million people in the United States are living with a previous diagnosis of cancer, far higher than the 3 million who were cancer survivors in 1971. For children, the statistics are even brighter: 30 years ago, about half of children with cancer were cured; today, 90% are cured.
So here's how we decided to try to make a difference: We raise the money, and then we turn it over to the researchers to work collaboratively to make important discoveries and find cures. Researchers, who are based at City of Hope in Duarte and Children's Hospital in Los Angeles, leverage their expertise in fields that are crucial to modern cancer research, and collaborate to better understand and treat brain tumors, leukemia, lymphoma, neuroblastoma and other cancers.
Through its grant making process, ThinkCure! is helping Los Angeles area cancer researchers to set an example that the whole region could someday follow-medical advancement through true teamwork.

@Esoteric1081: I will surely wrangle a derpy dog illustration onto a shirt at some point in my woot derby career. @tjschaeffer: As you can see, I tend to work during the hours where the human brain thinks everything that dances in front of it is a great idea. @j5: Now if I could just find the point where my madness intersects with that of the rest of the population...

There's no maybe about it, having the image on a shirt template is a requirement and this will get rejected for it. Alot of folks around here know the rules and wouldn't vote for this knowing it's doomed to be rejected. If you would have resubbed it immediately in the proper format then maybe you'd get some idea of it's popularity. If you want to test or share ideas there's always the pre-derby post, and maybe a "Works in Progress" post in one of the forums.
this. . . this is just so great, I really hope you win.
Hehe, that's a super clever idea!
awesome - love it!

Yeah, I totally understand. I didn't really feel like making my own font at the time.
Re: Technicolor Escape
Very eye catching! I love it! Sleek and stylish for sure.
Re: Grimm Cookies
This is a really cool design and even though I've never watched that show, I would've voted for you - if there weren't those pesty bad translations.
Only 25 days left and only one AD shirt? Oh come on! Though it needs something more for me than just a quote from one of my absolute favorite tv shows, sorry. :/
This one I really really like!

I agree the concept is pretty bland. I tend to over-think designs, so I try and go the other way from time to time just to see how it goes. If you are really hurting for an AD shirt, Walmazan's will be on sale tonight :P
