First Look: The Complete Peanuts 1987-1988 (Vol. 19) by Charles M. Schulz | |
Written by Mike Baehr | Filed under Peanuts, Coming Attractions, Charles M Schulz | 1 Feb 2013 1:05 PM |
Hot on the heels of our exciting Peanuts Every Sunday announcement, we present this sneak peek at an advance copy of The Complete Peanuts 1987-1988 by Charles M. Schulz, the upcoming 19th volume in the series! I've laughed out loud multiple times with just the merest glance at the contents so far, so put that in your supper dish and, uh, smoke it.

The book should be hitting shelves in April, and we'll certainly have more detailed previews for you between now and then.

CeraVe is a product line created by Coria Laboratories, LTD. The CeraVe line of skincare products claims to maintain and restore your "skin barrier." CeraVe uses a patented "multivesicular emulsion" or MVE delivery technology that was only available through a prescription not long ago. The official website gives you a lot of information on the MVE system the product use, as well as what some other ingredients do.
The CeraVe product line was created in conjunction with dermatologists and was intended for use in the treatment of dry skin and other conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. You can order CeraVe products from local retail and drug stores such as CVS and Walgreens, but products they are not available directly from the website.
CeraVe only offers three products on their official website and these are a hydrating cleanser, moisturizing lotion, and a moisturizing cream. That's not a very large selection and there are many similar products on the market so let's take a closer look.
Product Details
The CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser claims to be very mild and doesn't clog pores. This product also features the MVE technology, which claims to release beneficial ingredients over a long period of time after the cleanser is applied.
The CeraVe Moisturizing Cream and Lotion are very similar to each other but have are manufactured in a different product form. Both of these forms make use if CeraVe's proprietary MVE technology as well, but the cream is thicker than the lotion and is best used on very dry skin areas such as elbows, knees, and feet.
The official website doesn't include any prices or ingredients at all but a quick search turned them up. All three products contain the follwing: Purified Water, Glycerin, Behentrimonium Methosulfate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceramide 3, Ceramide 6 II, Ceramide 1, Hyaluronic Acid, Cholesterol, Polyoxyl 40 Stearate, Glyceryl Monostearate, Stearyl Alcohol, Polysorbate 20, Potassium Phosphate, Dipotassium Phosphate, Sodium Lauroyl Lactylate, Cetyl Alcohol, Disodium EDTA, Phytosphingosine, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Carbomer, Xanthan Gum.
The Good
- The products contain hyuralonic acid, which has proven benefits for the skin.
- The official CeraVe website is very informative about its products and what they do.
- These products are very affordable; around $13 for a 12 oz. bottle of the cleanser from a third-party web vendor.
The Bad
- No prices or ingredients are listed on the official website.
- No money-back guarantee seems to be offered.
- You can't buy anything from the official website.
- Products don't contain a combination of known proprietary wrinkle reducers.
The Bottom Line
CeraVe products have been recommended by dermatologists due to their mild nature, but there isn't much in the products for fighting wrinkles and fine lines. These products seem better suited for treating dry skin or certain types of skin blemishes. The MVE system is interesting and hopefully in the future they will use it in combination with known anti-aging compounds, instead of just ingredients that are known for general skin nourishment. CeraVe seems more suited for those with skin problems or very dry skin and not someone looking for an effective anti-aging compound.

Midwest Living Review
The suburban shopping center that's home to Nebraska Brewing Company sets an upscale tone as soon as you arrive. An outdoor mall that houses nationally known chain stores (Coldwater Creek, Old Navy) as well as locally owned boutiques (Chocolaterie Stam, Wheatfields Bakery), Shadow Lake Town Center feels like a place where couples, girlfriends and families could easily spend an afternoon, and they'd do well to have a meal and beer at Nebraska Brewing Company, which opened in 2008. A modern interior with high ceilings and concrete floors houses dozens of barrels of beer. But these barrels are more than just places to store beer—some are French oak barrels previously used to make Chardonnay, others are whiskey barrels from Colorado. The owners use them to age what have become award-winning beers, including the Black Betty Russian Imperial Stout (aged in the whiskey barrels) and the Melange a Trois (aged in French oak). The taste? Extraordinary. The Belgian-style Melange a Trois blond ale melds those characteristics with a dry white wine flavor profile, and that's just one of the 13 beers on tap.
The menu has the standard dishes you'd expect from a bar (appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches), with a handful of exceptions. The beer-cheese soup comes topped with popcorn, "Wisconsin-style." Though we've never seen soup served that way in Wisconsin, it was a great-tasting and fun combo ($2.99/cup). We tried the cherry barbecue chicken pizza ($9.99) because the staff uses the malted barley in the spent-grain crust. Everything about this thin-crust dish was delicious: the crispy crust, the sweet sauce, the tender chicken, the perfectly melty cheese. You can buy tasting samples of beer to enjoy as you watch a football game on the huge movie-style TV screen, or pick up growlers on your way out—a great reminder of this shopping center discovery. Be sure to come back for quarterly beer tastings and for the brewery's annual Brewfest in August. It draws more than 80 regional brewers and offers more than 400 kinds of beer. The brewery sells its product to restaurants in 11 states; in 2012, Nebraska became its No. 1 location for sales. Apparently, it's taken awhile for the word to spread locally about this gem—but we're glad it has.

BSD is irrelevant
I really don't know why phoronix test suite supports BSD when almost no one uses a pathetic and obsolete OS (Seriously, I can barely BSD an OS). Those using it should be using it. And annoying trolling BSD fans would not use it cause they know it just shows BSD is a shit hole in everything.

This logo design is made by the typeface and textured effect. I really like the interesting choice of colours and fire design. The shaping of the letters could work even better if they formed an overall design.
Posted in Branding → LogoA beautiful site for a community of active people who are passionate about their work. I love the colour palette and static header. The use of certain design elements is very strong, I especially like the hexagons.
Posted in Web Design → CommunityA great portfolio site for a web and user interface designer. I really like the use of typeface throughout and the contrasting backgrounds. The Dribbble shots gallery is a simple but brilliant idea!
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA great example of a beautifully designed iPhone app. I love the consistent and character full interface design. The icons and cartographic background really make this app.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA stylish and clean portfolio site for a professional designer. I like the simple illustration and the intriguing and offbeat gallery design. The dark footer perfectly complements the neutral palette of the site.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA fascinating design for a monitor that automatically moves to capture energy from the sun. I love the curved lines and clean design elements.
Posted in Interface → OtherA clean and effective site for a creative design agency. The layout is intuitive and gives good space to previous design work. I particularly like the illustrations and use of icons.
Posted in Web Design → DesignA simple but beautiful business card for a hair stylist. The circular card works well for a non-business profession, while the typeface is great. The peacock design makes an immediate impact!
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA brilliant portfolio site for a print and motion graphics designer. I really like the introductory quip and laid back illustrative style. His personal logo also makes a great impact.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA fascinating portfolio site for a photographer and web designer. I find the use of green and yellow an interesting combination. The cutout effect on the separate grids works well to add some character to a standard gallery format.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA unique interface for meeting room display panels that enables the viewer to see the situation of the room in question. I like the sleek design and bold use of red and green for the central indicators.
Posted in Interface → OtherGreat business cards that make perfect use of a simple concept. I really like the colours and shapes used in the design on the front of the card. The unique shape of the card itself adds another dimension of interest.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsAn good example of interesting and striking interface design. This portfolio uses a unrestrained grid layout that helps to grab your attention. I particularly like the use of visual site navigation.
Posted in Interface → Site NavigationA clean and minimal site for a web and graphic designer. The gallery section is effective, while the subtle background colours help to allow the work to make an impact. The purpose of the site is immediately identifiable, which is vital.
Posted in Web Design → DesignA brilliant portfolio site for a web design agency. I love the huge gallery of previous designs and restrained use of text. The way the sidebar moves with you is great, it helps keep the gallery in context.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA beautifully designed interface for the Magnum site. The space in the design is great, while the use of chocolate photography immediately makes an impact. I like that the colour scheme, as defined by the chocolate, transfers to the menus.
Posted in Interface → Web AppA gorgeous and simple portfolio site for a web designer. I love the consistent style and use of graphic illustrations. The colour choices are great and really make a statement about the designer.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA great interface for a Formula 1 app designed specifically for the iPhone. I like the sleek styling of the menus and interface itself, while the use of a chequered flag works perfectly. The use of icons and graphic details throughout is excellent!
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA fascinating site for a web designer and illustrator that's sure to divide opinion. The layout is intriguing but doesn't make good use of the screen real estate, I'm not convinced. The illustrations, however, are great at making an impact and holding the attention of visitors.

Uthando South Africa wins at Indaba 2013
At the heart of responsible tourism is a new generation of responsible travellers who are seeking real, meaningful and authentic experiences and are in tune with responsible lifestyle practices such as buying fair-trade products and experiences, and supporting community tourism.
Cape Town has been working towards being a responsible and sustainable city and destination for many years and we have again seen an increase in responsible tourism awareness, products and practices at Indaba 2013.
Cape Town welcomes #MeetSouthAfrica travel bloggers
Bloggers love South Africa – we know this from our #LoveCapeTown campaign. This campaign saw us bringing four international travel bloggers (@traveldudes @velvetescape @landlopers and @wildjunket) to Cape Town in July 2012 during a social media drive in which Capetonians interacted with the bloggers and their followers, telling the stories of Cape Town and her people.
Ready, steady, go… World Design Capital 2014 in Cape Town
The first call for projects to highlight Cape Town during World Design Capital 2014 is out. The Executive Mayor of Cape Town, Alderman Patricia de Lille, officially opened the call for World Design Capital Cape Town 2014 submissions at the Design Indaba Expo on Thursday 28 February, 2013.
Discovering Langa – a photo essay
Langa, South Africa's oldest township, was established in 1923 as part of the then Urban Areas Act. Similar to Nyanga, Gugulethu and Khayelitsha, Langa is one of the areas in South Africa that was designated for black Africans before the apartheid epoch. The name Langa means "sun" in Xhosa, but the name of the area is actually derived from the name Langalibalele – a famous chief who was imprisoned on Robben Island for rebelling against the government.

Design Indaba inspires Cape Town

Hailed by thought leaders like Michael Wolff and Dana Arnett as the top international design conference in the world, Design Indaba has captured the city this week – the energy was palpable as delegates from all corners of the globe were welcomed into Cape Town's creative heart. Not only was the city's beauty and fabulous weather celebrated by speakers from abroad, but our people also clearly left an impression. Tim Beard of Bibliothèque, one of the UK's top design agencies, said, "The warm hospitality of Cape Town is unsurpassed"
Cape to Rio connections
Photo by Skye Grove
The links between South Africa and Brazil can be drawn back a long way.
The seas that supposedly divide these two countries in some sense unite them. Both ancient ships and hi-tech yachts have charted their course along these ocean lines. Pedro Cabral, the 15th century Portuguese explorer, was on his way to the Cape of Storms (named so by Bartolomeu Dias, another Portuguese explorer of the age, and one of Cabral's contemporaries) when he landed on the coast of Brazil.
World AIDS Day in Cape Town
Since 1988, World AIDS Day has been about raising money for, heightening awareness of, combating prejudice through and improving education around AIDS-related efforts. In 2010, Cape Town will be part of global efforts to raise awareness around HIV/AIDS, as part of both the (RED) and the Lights for Rights campaigns, by illuminating Table Mountain with red lights from 19h00 until midnight tonight.
The (RED) campaign raises money for the Global Fund, the biggest pot of money dedicated to overcoming AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria, by co-branding products and releasing them in limited (RED) editions, donating up to 50% of the proceeds. One of the components of this campaign involves turning iconic landmarks around the world red. The initiative dovetails well with the Lights for Rights campaign, which places emphasis on "shining a light on human rights" in relation to HIV and AIDS, drawing global attention to the rights of those infected and affected by HIV.
Cape Town makes visitor safety a priority this summer season
Cape Town's busy summer season is fast approaching and tourism authorities are gearing up for an upturn in business. An influx of tourists is expected on the back of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ and the city is looking forward to welcoming visitors from South Africa and the rest of the world.

Today, September 27, is World Tourism Day and the theme of this year's celebration is "Tourism and Biodiversity". African penguins are a familiar sight to Capetonians and visitors to our city alike, but it is alarming to know that the plight of these beloved seabirds is more critical than most of us realise.
Spain vs Portugal: Photos from the match
The photographs below, of last night's 2010 FIFA World Cup™ round of 16 match at Cape Town Stadium, were taken by Skye Grove.
Portugal looking forward to a World Cup return to Cape Town
As Portugal prepares to take on reigning European champions Spain at Cape Town Stadium tomorrow, coach Carlos Queiroz says that the team should learn from their 0-0 draw against Brazil in the group stages.
Queiroz says that his team loves Cape Town and feels like coming home here. They are hoping the outcome of tomorrow's match will be similar to their crushing 7-0 victory over the People's Republic of Korea last week.

CHARACTER Mark Wayne | |
Appearance(s): | Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas |
Full name: | Mark Wayne |
Also known as: | B Dup |
Status: | Alive |
Gender: | Male |
Home: | Apartment in Ganton, Los Santos (formerly) Glen Park, Los Santos |
Nationality: | African-American |
Main affiliation: | Grove Street Families (formerly) Ballas |
Vehicle(s): | Infernus |
Businesses: | Drug-trafficking |
Voiced by: | The Game |
- "The only thing that matters is the hood, homie. But you'll never understand what gettin' this money is like. Get the fuck outta here before you be layin' on your back."
- ―B Dup
Mark Wayne, also known as B Dup, is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a supporting character and minor antagonist in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Wayne was voiced by The Game.
B Dup used to be a loyal member to the Grove Street Families but began to move away from the gang and into the drug scene. Dup begins to sell drugs in Los Santos, including to Barry Thorne (Big Bear), who he enslaves as his servant. Dup has Bear clean his home in Ganton. B Dup is also later heard on West Coast Talk Radio, saying "the problem in the hood is that there isn't enough drugs in the hood".
Events of GTA San Andreas
Recruitment attempt
Carl Johnson and Ryder attempt to recruit B Dup during the mission Cleaning the Hood to kill some Ballas drug dealers. Dup turns them down as the Ballas are responsible for bringing the drugs into the city which he does not want to fight against, and is more concerned with making money by selling drugs.
Much later in the game, during the mission Beat Down on B Dup, Carl and Sweet Johnson visit Dup in his new home in Glen Park, Kilo Tray Ballas territory. After Carl and Sweet retake Glen Park, they enter Dup's house to face him. Big Bear cannot take anymore abuse from Dup so he punches Dup and left with Carl and Sweet. Dup isn't seen again after that though it is likely that he is still alive.
B-Dup works for Big Smoke as he refers to him as "the boss" during the mission "Beat Down on B Dup". It is likely that Big Smoke supplies him with drugs.
Mission appearances
- GTA San Andreas
- B Dup's name is a play on the words "beat up."
- His outfit resembles that worn by the members of N.W.A in the early 90's. It is called a Chore Coat, and is purchasable in Victim for $320.
- His Chore coat has a Rockstar logo on it.
- B Dup was originally supposed to be killed in Beat Down on B Dup

Sure it's a simple question, but I certainly can't give you an answer.
It seems highly unlikely, particularly since we do enable HDMI audio in the Linux Catalyst drivers, but if we were I wouldn't know about it anyways.

does AMD get money from Microsoft or Hollywood to cripple the catalyst FGLRX driver on linux?
the answer is YES! :
i know from the past MICROSOFT DO CRIPPLE THE LINUX CATALYST!
everytime the windows catalyst gets a WHQL amd put the linux catalyst in a save and cripple the linux driver team to NOT RELEASE THE DRIVER!!
i know this its a FACT!!!! i prove this in the past multiple times with leaked beta drivers!
this means i give a FUCK about the Microsoft crippled CATALYST!
and now my question more spezific: does AMD get money from Microsoft or Hollywood to cripple the HDMI audio on the open-source driver radeon?
Thats bullshit, it is not ms fault when amd wants to release 12 drivers a year - and even the same day for win+linux. A few h later are the hotfix drivers optimizied for some new games out as usual, but not for Linux. Basically you can only bang you head against the next wall for such stupidness.
Q, it isn't even *close* to being a fact. Feel free to call it a personal opinion, of course.
We share a lot of code between drivers on different OSes, and share test coverage on a lot of the common bits. Once we know that the code isn't going to have to change for any of the OSes, we release all the drivers sharing that code at the same time.
If you believe that the requirement for WHQL cert on Windows drivers leads directly to saying "the linux catalyst is crippled because of Microsoft" then all I can say is "perhaps that made more sense before translation"

i can simple prove you wrong: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict_of_interest+http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affidavit
i can do a Affidavit without any Conflict of interest! and you can't do the same!
I do not "believe"! its a Fact!
your writing miss a important Detail: Because Microsoft force AMD every 3 months for 2-3 weeks to NOT Release the Linux driver because of the WHQL.
OK, I *think* you're suggesting that if you "do an affidavit" that somehow makes your statement a fact, ie turns it into some kind of absolute truth ?
back on track here, and Q, please stop hijacking the thread.
I'm really interested in buying this computer:
I want to run linux on it, specifically archlinux, but I'd even compromise on ubuntu it if gets better results. I'd like to play games both natively and in wine, i.e. say sims 3, but also newer stuff. Are my prospects good with fglrx / radeon, or am I likely to run into a lot of problems?
I've seen a lot of people here and elsewhere telling me to buy nvidia as it runs the best with wine etc., but I'd like to give a chance to a company that looks to me more dedicated to the foss movement.
Its the other way around you can't "do an affidavit" without "Conflict of interest" because of this, your claim, that my point is only my personal point of view, is a joke!
In different short words: Your Rhetoric is proved as a joke because of your "Conflict of interest".
Dialectic: Get right by discretization of the counterparty.

Yes i know but vsync is known to cause the mouse lag which was your original issue
You also said capping fps didn't work when vsync is on, and it wont, thus turning off vsync. If you have a 60Hz monitor cap maxfps at 59/60/61 play around see what's better and although you may get a little tearing with no vsync buffering it wont be as bad as not capping fps with vsync off.
Im using a 120Hz monitor have vsync off and fps capped at 121 and get no noticeable tearing at all.
So whats worse mouse lag or a little tearing ?
I do believe the mouse lag with vsync is worse on linux than windows. lets hope fixes are on the way

Consensus is he runs really good routes (not sure if Lafell is known for his crisp route tree).
Other than that, he doesn't imo bring anything significantly more. That's why I am not really against him more along the lines of I don't think he brings anything significantly better to the equation. Austin, Patterson types would bring the "Oh S#$$" game changing ability with the ball in their hands. I think that type of explosiveness would take our offense to the next level.

ContinueWe appreciate you taking the time to help us.
If you're looking to make a smooth start to your journey, you need to make sure you have the right documents, such as a valid passport and the relevant visas. Without these essentials, you may not be allowed to travel. In most cases, it should be fairly simple to sort out.
There are four things everybody needs to check before they travel:
Unless you are flying solely within the UK you'll need a passport or an equivalent travel document that is valid for the full duration of your trip.
Some countries additionally require that the passport is valid for a minimum period beyond your trip — usually three or six months. Visit the IATA Travel Centre to check the passport validity requirements of your destination:
Check passport validity requirements
Your children will also need their own passports — even infants under two years old.
Processing times for passports vary but it may take six weeks or longer to receive a passport after applying, so we advise that you wait until your passport has arrived before making a reservation. Many countries offer fast-track applications where required.
If you are flying solely within the UK, including Northern Ireland, you do not need a passport but we advise that you carry photographic identification with you when travelling, such as your passport or driving licence. This may be requested at certain points in your journey. Children under the age of 16 years old do not require identification to travel within the UK.
If you are a citizen of the UK or Republic of Ireland who was born in that country you do not need a passport to travel between the two countries but you do require some form of photographic identification, such as a driving licence.
All other travellers require a valid passport to travel between the two countries.
Depending on your nationality and the purpose of your journey, you may need a visa or an equivalent form of authorisation for every country you enter as part of your journey — even if you are only changing flights. This is in addition to a valid passport. Your visas will be checked both before you board the flight and again on arrival at your destination.
For free, accurate and up-to-the-minute advice on visa requirements and certain types of entrance fees, visit the IATA Travel Centre. You'll also be able to check passport and health requirements, as well as customs, currency and airport information for your destination:
Check your visa, passport and health requirements
If it indicates you need a visa for your journey, you can apply directly with the embassy or high commission of the country you want to travel to — visit their website or local consulate to learn more about the process.
Citizens of countries covered by the Visa Waiver Programme (such as the UK) are able to travel to the USA without a visa providing they hold a valid Electronic System Travel Authorisation (ESTA) and meet the requirements of the programme.
You can apply online and should receive approval straight away, although we recommend applying at least 72 hours before your departure. An ESTA is valid for multiple journeys for up to two years or until your passport expires, whichever is sooner.
Some countries' Immigration departments require additional documentation for all children travelling into, out of or transitting their country. The extra documentation that you may require varies depending on the country, so please make sure you have everything you need before you travel.
The IATA Travel Centre can advise you what documentation is required for each country. Just make sure you use the date of birth of your child to ensure the extra requirements are displayed.
Check the IATA Travel centre for documentation required when travelling with children.

Korean Spicy BBQ Chicken and Egg Burritos
I had some leftovers from taco night and the first thing that came to mind was along the same vein, burritos. The tacos were on the smaller side and there was no way that the leftovers would fill a mighty burrito so I would need something to fill them out a bit. Rice is a perfect filler for burritos and I figured that the freshness of some cilantro and lime brown rice would be a perfect fit. I have been fascinated by the idea of the parent and child concept of using both chicken and egg ever since I came across the oyako donburi a Japanese chicken and egg rice bowl, where the translation is literally parent and child rice bowl. With that in mind the next filler was going to be a pair of eggs, scrambled. Though I did not use any cheese in the tacos I just could not resist using some in the burritos in the form of grated cheddar and jack cheese. With the cheese in there I wanted a way to melt it so I assembled the burritos making sure that the cheese was near the outside and then I grilled the burritos after rolling them up. The spicy chicken and egg burritos turned out really well! The chicken, eggs and cheese brought an nice spicy flavour base while the rice, lettuce and relish brought a great freshness. All of the flavours and textures combined really well to make one really tasty burrito! These burritos would for either dinner or for breakfast. What a great way to enjoy some of the leftover dak bulgogi!

Very nice work, indeed! Just a couple of things;
a) Mushroom anchor needs to be flattened a bit. They weren't balls, but more like you took a ball, cut it into four slices, threw the 2 middle ones away, and used one of the ends. The left over one would be a spare! Also, they had a shallow dimple at the center of their bottom (outboard) end.
b) The "Dunce cap", or propeller nut cover, now in red, should be the same color as the screw. Once fully assembled onto the shaft, the screw, nut, and cap were pretty much a single entity.
c) Zincs are raised off the hull surface. Check out Racer's thread on the 637 he's doing by 'puter. I believe there's a picture or two of zincs in there. Zincs are sacrificial anodes, protecting the hull steel and bronze screw from the effects of galvanic corrosion. All subs have them in some form or fashion. The zincs get eaten up before the bronze and then the steel. They have to be changed out every so many years.
Keep up the nice work!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone, my name is Jim. I am planning to build an RC sub of my own design, completely from scratch. I've been reading a lot about the concept online and developed my plan a bit. I want to start with the Water Tight Compartment and have a few questions if you don't mind:
1. I've seen references to the WTC remaining sealed for lengthy periods. If it is sealed most of the time, where does the battery go? If inside the WTC, how is it charged without breaking the seal? If outside the WTC, how is it protected from water?
Or is the WTC meant to be opened and closed every time the battery needs to be recharged?
2. With the electric motor (I'm planning to use an old RC aircraft motor) inside the WTC, what kind of seal is commonly used around the drive shaft as it leaves the WTC? Bicycle bellows or the shaft through a rubber block with grease inside it? If a bellows, how does this mate to the spinning shaft?
3. I believe the MHz range radio/receivers are best for penetration of water by the signal but these have a long aerial on the receiver. How is the aerial usually arranged inside the sub - all bundled into the WTC or does it extend outside the WTC so it can be straight?
4. How do you water-proof the exit point from the WTC for the wires leading to the servos for the planes?
5. Plane servos - how are the servos, themselves, water-proofed?
Thanks guys for any help you can offer with these questions!

Gracie has never been at a major ISU event before-so yes, she may not know the protocol.
Gracie has never been at a major ISU event before-so yes, she may not know the protocol.
These were exactly my thoughts- that I felt she must have REALLY been working with someone on her arms between Russian Junior Nationals and now. I am a huge fan of Julia so I liked her program very much before but I think this is the first time I've seen her in a while where I was really WOWED by her now that I am kind of 'over' her flexibility.
I agree 3T3T.
The Russian ladies now have great presentation to go along with the difficult jumps. I think even Miyahara was pretty impressive but I think Gracie will improve. I've already seen the improvement in the short which was a better vehicle for her imo. I'm liking Gracie more and more.
I haven't seen Shelepen in a while and she's turned into quite the little diva. I love the way she goes up from a donut to a downward-looking Biellman as if it were nothing. I hope she gets to go to Worlds.
Christina Gao started beautifully with her 3F-3T but struggled in the second half of the program and ran out of steam after 2-footing the loop. She's matured a lot artistically but not quite enough to pull off this tango (which at the beginning of the season I thought would be fantastic). She's so striking with those endless limbs and that exotically beautiful face, but doesn't have much style yet. I wonder how she would do with a classical piece that has both beauty and some modern angularity, like Prokofiev's 1st violin concerto or the Franck violin sonata. I keep rooting for her.

I have always enjoyed the juniors far more than the seniors-and it looks like a great deal of talent is moving in! Thank you for the vids, I deeply appreciate it! I was IMPRESSED (sorry Nadine) with this crop of skaters-but I love huge jumps. My only 'ewww' is for the Red Getup....hated it and found it distracting. Yes, all of the skaters need a bit of polish, but the raw athletic talent is fun to watch, and it is something I have missed from the seniors for quite some time. (Perhaps since Yuna and Mao when they were juniors.....)
Last edited by katymay; 03-04-2012 at 04:38 PM. Reason: additional comment
the top three are absolutely gorgeous girls, wow. such beauty.
julia is definitely a star as so many other people have said. what a great way to cap off her perfect season. her jumps were great. she does need more polishing and i think her axel technique may cause her problems as she grows, she doesn't jump up, she jumps in. her free leg doesn't lift up. although she shows nice pointed toes in her spirals, i would like to see the same on her landings and in some spin positions, and some harder triple-triples. along with a different choreographer. she did look a little slow on camera, although i don't know what she looks like in real life. she definitely deserved to win the title, but i think she was overscored in PCS. the real question will be how she will hold up in the next few years against skaters like gracie and adelina who have gone through their growth spurts. it will be interesting to say the least.
i am so happy for gracie and proud of her. she went from being virtually unknown to junior world silver medalist in a season. she has so much to be proud of, especially being this was only her second international competition and she was able to keep her head on her shoulders and stay focused. i hope she can carry that into the future when she moves up to senior. her jump technique is so solid, you just know she's going to land them. she also needs polishing, but she is fast and has the technical side of it. i don't think her artistry is bad, i actually think she expresses with her arms very well in her long program, but it isn't up to it's full potential. i think a new choreographer would help her in the future. i think both of her programs played to her strengths this year and i'm so excited what her programs will be like next year, along with julia's.
the first half of adelina's program was absolutely perfect, then the second went downhill...she must have lost focus after the first mistake. she is definitely the most mature of the bunch, and i noticed her skating matured a lot from last year, probably because she had to for seniors. i hope she takes this year as a learning experience, being it her first year as a senior, and not let it get to her negatively. i hope she can regroup and get herself together in the off season.
polina did a nice job, but she just doesn't stand out to me. i think she's really boring even though she has the jumps. like someone else said, i almost wanted to fast forward through her program.
does anyone have a video of the ladies medal ceremony or LP press conference?
I noticed Julia's axel technique as well. Reminds me of Tara Lipinski's technique. But she gets the job done, although all the positive GOE's are puzzling.
CBC has the Junior Worlds on line. I don't know if it's geoblocked.

Goodness. That would certainly test her (as yet non-existent) dramatic abilities! Has anyone ever skated to that before?
Congratulations to all the medalists!
Also thanks a lot, guys for video links.
Looking forward to seeing these videos later today.
I have not read all the comments with 17 pages long...but what happened to Risa???
I know Risa has problems to UR calls, flutz, slow spins, etc. but was surprised to see her as low as 20th at this particular competition.
She was so promising last season when she made a 'splash' to win her first Jr. Grand Prix event in Japan and then placed 5th at the Nationals.
Great upcoming talents. Looking forward to seeing them grow in their skills and performances.

Ants in Tampa: A Hassle To Be Taken Care Of By Pros
If ants appeared only at outings, possibly they would certainly be easier to endure. Rather, they could make their method through the tiniest spaces and appear unpleasant in the majority of any sort of location of the residence. As the number-one "annoyance insect" in the Tampa Bay area, ants go into homes to find meals and water. This indicates that no matter exactly how your house is constructed, where it's located or just how aged it is, maybe attacked by ants.
"We hear from irritated callers each week who have unsuccessfully tried every do-it-yourself ant manage item on the shelf," note James and Morris Carey, nationally acknowledged specialists on residence building and project, and hosts of the syndicated radio show "On the House." "When you accumulate the time and cash they have actually invested trying to rid their residences of ants, it would certainly have been more economical and a lot much easier to call a Tampa pest control companies to get it done right, the very first time.".
"Reliable ant manage begins with an expert examination and therapies making use of the most highly sophisticated products readily available," recommends James. Includes Morris, "Specialist procedures such as Phantom ® insecticide and Termidor ® insecticide/termiticide are both undetected, enabling the ants to pass through the addressed area and become providers, transferring the treatment to other ants they get in touch with. A pest expert can use Phantom to problem spots inside your home, and Termidor around your home's foundations to get to the outdoor nests where the ants live. Most ant types are managed within a week of application.".
According to the Carey Bros., homeowner mindset is swiftly shifting towards this time-efficient, inexpensive, peace-of-mind expectation that comes with having a pest expert deal with ant infiltration. Today, the view of a pest management automobile signifies a determined, smart ways of discovering and clearing a residence of a bug that postures a major danger to houses, homes and various other frameworks.
Belong to The Option.
Ants need meals and water, and they need a way to gain access to your house. Since they can be quite consistent, you need to be equally consistent by taking some straightforward actions in the direction of regulating these problem pests. Inside: Tidy up spilled meals and drinks, secure the trash, and wash out containers and containers just before you position them in wastebasket and reusing containers. Outdoors: Seal windows and doors, keep rain gutters clean to prevent moisture inside wall surfaces, and trim trees and hedges far from your house.
Phantom and Termidor treatments are only available to licensed insect experts. For more info, click here.

"I'm going to look into it...and then never do it". Soooo funny. That is exactly how my mommy life goes. I pin all these great ideas for kids, sometimes even get the "stuff" to do them, and then I never do.
ReplyDelete Let me see -
6:40 - Benji - MY BLANKETS ARE TANGLED! HALPHALP HAAAALLP!!!! (He's dramatic that one..)
6:45 - Claire - Mom. Why is it early? Is it day time? Do I have to go to school? I have a belly ache, and I will miss puppy _so much_ (She's 5 and equally prone to dramatics)Cute idea! I don't remember today's first words, but yesterday's were adorable. My 3-year-old daughter woke up just after my shower, so I still had my bathrobe on. When she saw me getting ready for work, she says in a sleepy and whiney voice "No, go put your jammas on!" Poor thing, she just wants the weekend (as do I).
ReplyDeleteI don't like to link to my blog in the comments but today I.can't.help.it. I thought this exact same thing not too long ago and posted about it too
This morning it was "Is it the weekend?" Sadly, it wasn't.I'm still in school and don't have kids, but the first thing someone said directly to me is "I don't want to be a chauffer." I think it sums up the day nicely.

Montpelier ready to supply water
Montpelier city officials are watching with curiosity as the town of Berlin prepares to vote on a proposed water system bond. Our curiosity stems from the total lack of communication coming from Berlin toward the city with regard to this proposal.
Berlin Pond is the citys water source. It is located fully within the town of Berlin and has water supply capacity exponentially larger than the wells that the town is pursuing. Montpeliers water treatment plant, also located in Berlin, is far more technologically advanced than the treatment system being suggested for the wells. The city already provides water to many major Berlin customers. There is a great opportunity to share resources. We do not understand why town officials refuse to discuss collaboration with Montpelier.
Since September, the city has asked to meet with Berlin officials on at least eight occasions. The most recent was a formal letter sent Jan. 16. The city received no response to any of these communications. To the contrary, the city after numerous informal requests was forced to rely upon a public records request to obtain a copy of a public document. Even then, the request was not honored for 14 working days, which is in excess of the time required by statute.
Why wont the town talk with the city? With a $5.5 million bond issue on the line, one would hope that the town would be actively pursuing all options.

7/23/10 – Milt Thompson
Word came last night that the Phillies fired former player and hitting coach Milt Thompson. This current 2010 squad has become a mirror image of the 1979 team, and unfortunately, as it goes in professional sports, someone… usually the coaching staff… has to take the fall. (On a side note, I'm proud to say that I made this 1979/2010 comparison a full month before longtime Philadelphia sports writer Bill Conlin did in this article). What really makes me sad about this organizational move is now, there may be a chance Mr. Thompson may not be a part of this year's Phantasy Camp. Last year, he was scheduled to be there to impart his hitting wisdom, but could not be there as he was attending the wedding of Jimmy Rollins. I have a special place in my heart for Milt as a Phillies fan. He first played for the team from 1986-1988. Milt was a fantastic player and had arguably his best season ever in 1987. Sadly he was traded to the Cardinals in 1989, but returned to the Phillies in 1993. So just like Larry Andersen, Milt has the interesting distinction of playing for the Phillies in the '80's, leaving, then returning for that fantastic '93 season. Nothing made me happier when he was hired in 2005 to be the Phillies' hitting coach. Under his tutelage, the Phillies became a major offensive machine, culminating in three division titles, two World Series appearances and one World Championship. His reaction to his firing exemplified class. No bitterness. No anger. Just business. Milt, you are a Philadelphia Phillies legend.

An embarrassingly bad diss song by the great rapper Biggie Smalls. As usual, Diddy is in the background messing up the entire song. This ruins the whole goddamn song and automatically makes ears bleed.

World Champions make their guest appearance!
The German Touring Car Masters (DTM) gets ready to welcome numerous superstars at Austria's Red Bull Ring this weekend and so naturally the KTM X-BOW BATTLE must be prepared to do the same. During the two races (Saturday at 13:40 and Sunday morning at 09:10) there will be a repeat of the legendary duel between double Motocross World Champion Heinz Kinigadner and Vice 'Wok" World Champion Christian Clerici that was first seen at last year's races in Brno, Czech Republic.
"BATTLE" organizer Georg Silbermayr has spared neither effort nor expense to ensure that something worthy of a World Championship can be cooked up and so has also engaged the skills of double Barbeque World Champion Adi Matzek. Some 33 drivers, including KTM test driver Reini Kofler, six-times national Rally Champion Raphael Sperrer – aka "Major Adolf Kottan", Plus-city boss Ernst Kirchmayr and Laura Kraihamer (Dominik's sister) will fight for victory on the Red Bull Ring. And as well as the thrill of two exciting races, there will also be the cozy ambience of the KTM one-make series atmosphere to enjoy.
Georg Silbermayr, himself is behind the steering wheel under the pseudonym "Bernie Silverstone" says: "For us it's not just about winning but also about getting together for an enjoyable weekend!" This doesn't mean that the drivers don't take the racing seriously, as Heinz Kinigadner will underline by jetting between the Red Bull Ring and the Erzbergrodeo, the Motocross mega event at nearby Eisenerz. "For me its all about beating Christian (Clerici) and Georg (Silbermayr) just like I did in Brno in 2012. They need to watch out!" One just has to wait and see if the sale of spare parts reaches new heights this coming weekend…

Since btrfs and xfs include additional functionality, shouldn't ext4 be tested configured with LVM2 and mdraid to compare equivalents?
Phoronix: HDD & SSD File-System Benchmarks On Linux 3.9 Kernel
For those curious where the common Linux file-systems stand performance-wise for the Linux 3.9 kernel, here are benchmarks from a solid-state drive and hard drive when comparing the EXT4, Btrfs, XFS, and F2FS file-systems from this yet-to-be-released Linux kernel.
Since btrfs and xfs include additional functionality, shouldn't ext4 be tested configured with LVM2 and mdraid to compare equivalents?
BTRFS is sometimes slower on an SSD than an HDD? Does that make sense?
I stress tested BTRFS for a recent server, and got it to crash dump twice. I seem to be able to trigger it mostly with compression on and writing many small files with rsync. Whatever the case, that ixnayed BTRFS for me... not that I expected different, but it pays to know these things.
Ill be honest I onlu read this article for the ext4 vs btrfs comparison. I just did a home server install of F18 and Btrfs and am quite happy with it. Michael the next time you do these benchmarks can you include 2 more setups though? Ext4 overtop LVM to see what the penalty there is. (Also is a more comparable benchmark to btrfs that way). The other is including a btrfs with compress=lzo
Please test btrfs with LZO as that's the common use-case for me and the big sale of BTRFS for most people running SSDs. It's not default, but should be. Also the data would need to make sense for your test goals as /dev/random doesn't resemble all the compressible text, scripts, and ELF that's common in a system (if the test goals resemble system activities).
Am I the only one here excited about F2FS? It might become the default filesystem for the Raspberry Pi when they switch from 3.6 to 3.8.
Again no ZFS. Why? Phoronix is the one that got my attention to zfsonlinux, yet it's been ignoring it for a while now? Don't like the developers or what?
It's imho the only advanced features fs today that is actually useable, btrfs still feels lightyears away and in the mean time i'm migrating more and more boxes to zfsonlinux.
And it looks like it also already compatible with 3.9 so no excuses there.

Virgin Galactic reveals SpaceshipTwo
Article Summary
We've seen the mothership from which the world's first manned commercial spaceship will be air launched and we've even seen design images of the craft itself. Now Virgin Galactic has unveiled the actual spaceship that will take private astronauts into space - SpaceshipTwo (SS2). The unveiling at Mojave Air and Spaceport today marks the first time the craft has been revealed to the public since construction began in 2007 and brings Virgin Galactic another step closer to realizing its goal of becoming the world's first commercial space line providing private sector access to space.

Another epic fail IMO. I know where my files are and don't need any trackers indexing and grinding my disk down. I don't know why indexing is such a popular feature of many OSes. It's sad how much effort beagle and tracker received.
Phoronix: GNOME's Zeitgeist Engine Has Its First Release
One of the GNOME projects that's in development that should premiere around the time of GNOME 3.0 is Zeitgeist, which is the system for tracking user activity and events and then logging it, so that later on the user can use the Zeitgeist tool to browse or find events and files on the computer. This project is described by the Zeitgeist developers as, "You worked on a file, but you cannot remember where you saved it? You visited a web page about basketball three days ago, but you cannot find the URL in your browser's history? No problem, this is where Zeitgeist enters the scene...
Another epic fail IMO. I know where my files are and don't need any trackers indexing and grinding my disk down. I don't know why indexing is such a popular feature of many OSes. It's sad how much effort beagle and tracker received.
sounds interesting!
but the data this program gathers is dangerous. imagine someone hacked you computer and knows when you stored what where and what you did with whom..
I hope this is not being integrated in to gnome apps ? I kinda think this stuff is already, gedit for example, will open a file and jump to the last location in the file. Seriously, its a simple text file, all that does is waste cpu and disk. I find this really annoying, which is why i ditched gedit.
/me thinks about mouning ~ on tmpfs
What bothers me the most is the useless disk access and wasted cpu.
The article doesn't mention Zeitgiest's long term goals, which may be why you believe it to be another indexing service. It shouldn't be thought of as Yet Another Desktop Indexer, but more like a desktop revision control system. Like bzr or git that doesn't require commits(or branches, or pushing and pulling of remote repo's or anything else that at normal desktop user wouldn't use).

I don't like to judge software before having tested it, but I'm pretty sure I would disable this one fast, if it came enabled by default on a fresh installation of, say, a future Ubuntu release. I've seriously given content indexers a try, but they mostly just waste system resources and add little value. The Locate program is very simple, but still often does the job. Besides, I rarely forget where I store things or what I work on.
Not to mention that it's a security and privacy nightmare: if I wanted some database tracking every web page I ever visit, I'd move back to Britain.
I'll never understand why some people believe that logging everything they ever do and keeping every version of every file on their system is a good idea.
Sounds like a piece of shit.
Keep Registry crap on Windows only please
Non sequitur.
As described, Zeitgeist looks like a replay or revision control system. It has abso-fucking-lutely nothing to do with the windows registry.
There are many legitimate uses for such a system and it opens some pretty interesting possibilities if it's included by default. What possibilities? Think user assistance (your father loses his photos, you use Zeitgeist to retrace his steps and restore them), application testing (I did xyz and your application crashed, here is a Zeitgeist replay) and more.
Of course, most people wouldn't understand innovation even if you spellt it, but that's ok. I, for one, like seeing features that aren't copied right out of commercial OSs.
Because some people keep valuable stuff on their systems. Music creation; 3d models; textures; retouched photos; book scripts; source code.
Note: this is orthogonal to regular backups. If I understand Zeitgeist correctly, it could work as a revision control system for your whole system.
Obviously, if you are concerned that someone might be monitoring your workstation, it would be best to minimize traces of your illegal activities - hence no Zeitgeist for you. :P
