Experience the latest Groovy 1.5
Groovy 1.5, the latest major and stable version of the popular dynamic language for the JVM, has been released. In a nutshell, it brings new features like Java 5 annotations, generics and enums, it provides significant performance gains, new meta-programming capabilities, new and improved tooling support like the new joint Groovy/Java compiler, the new interactive shell, or the Groovy Swing console, and a few other additions in its syntax, like the new Elvis operator or the ability to omit parentheses in methods with named arguments to make DSLs even more readable. InfoQ covers the novelties in this new milestone of the project. With all these improvements and new features, don't waste a single second, go download Groovy 1.5 and give it a try.
Groovy, an award-winning creative and innovative project
JAX is the most important Java conference in Germany. Every year, the organizers are running a contest to select the most innovative and creative projects. From over 40 proposals, the jury selected only ten nominees. Although great projects were selected, like the Matisse GUI builder in NetBeans, or the Nuxeo Enterprise Content Management solution, Groovy won the first prize! It is a great honor and a huge pleasure for us to receive such a prize, especially knowing the cool projects we were competing with, or the past winners like the Spring framework.
Dierk König, author of the best-selling "Groovy in Action" book, received the prize in the name of the Groovy community, after having presented several sessions on Groovy at this conference. This award proves and reaffirms how innovative, creative and influential the Groovy project is for the Java community.
Discover Groovy and Grails at the 2G Groovy/Grails conference
Get ready for the first major North American Groovy and Grails conference. This event will take place February 21 - 23, 2008 in Reston, Virginia. You will learn about rapid application development with Groovy / Grails and network with other developers who are redefining the way web applications are developed on the Java platform.
Learn more about this new conference on its website or register directly. Attendees will receive an IntelliJ IDEA license with the super powerfull JetGroovy plugin (Groovy and Grails support), a T-Shirt, and a nice 1GB USB drive with all the presentation slides.
"Groovy is like a super version of Java. It can leverage Java's enterprise capabilities but also has cool productivity features like closures, builders and dynamic typing. If you are a developer, tester or script guru, you have to love Groovy."

World's largest neutrino observatory completed in Antarctica
IceCube team members pose with an optical sensor during deployment
After five years of construction, an international team has put the finishing touches on the University of Wisconsin's IceCube Neutrino Observatory. Located in Antarctica, the observatory is looking specifically for high-energy neutrinos, which are created in violent cosmic events such as super novae and gamma ray bursts. As neutrinos collide with water molecules in the pitch black, ultra-clear ice, a blue flash of light results, which is detected by the sensors. Ever since neutrinos were discovered in 1956, scientists have hoped to decipher the information these astronomical messengers carry about distant cosmic events and the completion of the observatory marks an important step towards tracing their origins.

Movie Description(Click Here To Hide)
Back onscreen in his first leading role since starring in 2003's Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Arnold Schwarzenegger leads the cast of this 2013 action crime thriller set on the Mexican border. When a notorious drug kingpin escapes from the FBI, he and his gang, along with a hostage, race towards Mexico. Meanwhile, it's up to a newly-in-command Sheriff Ray Owens (Schwarzenegger) in the small U.S. border town of Sommerton Junction to ready his less experienced force as they prepare to make a last-ditch effort at intercepting the drug cartel before they cross the border.

We set very high standards for our cuisine, and train our staff extensively before the season starts, to ensure that you will thoroughly enjoy every meal on your own holiday with us. We also take our Health and Safety responsibilities extremely seriously, so all our chalet and Chalet Hotel staff during the pre-season training course are trained to the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health's Level 2 in Food Safety*. For six days of the week our staff prepare all your meals, as described below.
A good breakfast is essential on a ski holiday, so we provide both a cooked breakfast including your choice of bacon, eggs, sausages and beans, as well as a continental selection with a choice of cereals or porridge, fruit juices, plentiful tea, coffee and bread (and croissants in France), cold meats, cheese and preserves, which is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. On our staff's one day off a week, only the continental breakfast will be provided.
Afternoon Tea
The traditional 'welcome home' after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff's one day off per week. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of freshly home-baked cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready. As an added benefit for guests in our Chalet Hotels, our chefs prepare a selection of cakes for afternoon tea.
Children's High Tea
In Chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 13 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children's tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner.

Manchester close to adopting rules for vicious dogs
The ordinance, which would also require dogs found to be vicious be enrolled in behavioral modification training classes, has had a second reading and will go before the Board of Aldermen in September.
"The reaction I've seen to it has been positive," said Ward 3 Alderman Pat Long. "A few questions have come up, like the criteria used to determine if a dog is or isn't considered vicious, but they were answered in committee meetings. You never know until it goes before the full board, but I don't expect any roadblocks to pop up."
The ordinance, which received initial approval from aldermen last month, will need to come back before the full board at its first meeting in October for a vote. The aldermen meet just once in September, and the ordinance can't be passed at a meeting where it is being brought forth for the first time.
The ordinance spells out that any dogs deemed vicious must be:
• Spayed or neutered if not already;
• Identified by microchip or tattooing with documentation to be submitted to the city;
The ordinance will also require owners of these dogs to notify the City Clerk's Office if the dog dies, experiences a change of address or is given to a new owner. Police Lt. Maureen Tessier said the ordinance will make the job done by the department's animal control officers a little easier.
"I think it's needed," said Shelley Greenglass, manager of the Manchester Animal Shelter. "Owners will take more responsibility for their pets."
The ordinance isn't limited to specific breeds.
"There were some who felt it should include language for specific breeds, but I don't agree with that," said Long. "Not every dog from a certain breed behaves the same way. There are only a handful of these incidents that occur, and it's not fair to lump every dog from a particular breed together."

Problem is data structures grow, which means a smaller working set fits into caches and memory traffic increases.Processors are natively 64-bit, so they must handle 64-bit address natively too. There is no reason that 64-bit address are slower to access. I even would say the contrary...
Pixman has hand-written SSE instincs on x86 too, so this is not limited to 64-bit code.Page rendering speed on 64 bit might benefit from SSE instructions in pixman, but a quick Google search turned up no meaningful comparison here. You'll have to benchmark that yourself.
This has nothing to do with "make Atom suck less" - its just a matter of efficiency. X86 is an ugly instruction set with way too few registers, and x86_64 fixes that to some extent.and please - whoever mentioned x32 - forget it. As fast as you can. It was created by Intel to make Atom suck a bit less. Breaking all and everything just to make a crap CPU look better is NOT a good thing to
However x86_64 has the burden of 64-bit pointers, quite useless for userland in mobile devices (as you can still compile the kernel as 64-bit, and run 32-bit code) - which just makes software run slower (compared to x32) and means higher power consumption because of increased memory traffic.
Usually on phones and tablets, binary compatibility is not an issue, Intel often stated this is not intended for desktops.
There is usually a tendency that computation-bound code benefits of the extra and larger registers on 64-bit, while "heavy" bussiness-logic code like large java applications, firefox and so on suffer, because they typically use a lot of complex data structures, with many levels of indirection.
Java is a good example - its a very pointer-heavy language. Because 64bit pointers hurt Java apps typically a lot, modern java runtimes run on 64-bit machines with a hybrid between 32 and 64 bit mode, where pointers are stored in 32-bit and are expanded right before use - if memory conditions allow it.

With one year out until the 2011 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Athens, we eagerly anticipate what will be the world's largest sporting event in 2011.
We encourage you to visit the Games' official website www.athens2011.org to check out more details and to stay connected to the latest news.
Next summer in Athens, Greece more than 7,500 athletes from 185 countries will converge on the most historic site in the history of Olympic sport for the 2011 Special Olympics World Summer Games. The Games will unite the world through sports in a celebration of the abilities and accomplishments of people with intellectual disabilities and form a new global vision of acceptance.
Set for 25 June through 4 July 2011, the Games will also include 2,500 coaches, 25,000 volunteers, 3,000 technical delegates and tens of thousands of family, friends and spectators. They will gather as Special Olympics athletes compete in 22 Olympic-style sports in the birthplace of the modern Olympic Games.
Alternating between summer and winter, the Special Olympics World Games are one of the world's largest sporting events, drawing as many if not more athletes than the Olympics. Every two years since 1968, athletes from more than 100 nations have gathered to celebrate sport and showcase the abilities of people with intellectual disabilities. This prominent world stage brings attention to the Special Olympics movement and helps create positive, sometimes life-saving policy change for people with intellectual disabilities in countries around the world.
The Special Olympics World Summer Games will be a milestone event of a long-lasting movement, founded in 1968 by the late Eunice Kennedy Shriver, to create a world that is not dominated by those who are excluded but by those who are included. The games are being held in the land of "fair play," where the true values of competition were born; the talents and skills of the athletes of Special Olympics will remind us what the sports are really about. All participants are winners in their struggle for respect, inclusion and unity.
The 2011 Test Games started this May and run through October. Meanwhile, Athens continues to prepare for hosting Special Olympics athletes on the world's stage next year. We encourage you to visit the Games' official website www.athens2011.org to check out more details and to stay connected to the latest news. Volunteers are also still needed as more than 25,000 will be necessary to effectively ensure the Games' success. Join us in the excitement as we countdown to the Special Olympics World Summer Games Athens 2011!
Special Olympics transforms athletes' lives through the joy of sport. Help us make a difference.
Volunteering with Special Olympics is fun and very rewarding, for both the athlete and the volunteer!
Stay in touch! See inspiring stories, photos and videos in our Special Olympics newsletter.
Proud partner of Special Olympics.

The document calls for stricter oversight of oil and chemical facilities, strengthening of emergency preparedness programs, and other measures to better protect refinery workers and the public.
California recently released a draft report outlining measures to improve public and worker safety at and near the states petroleum refineries. The report, titled Improving Public and Worker Safety at Oil Refineries, is a product of a 13-agency task group formed after the August 2012 fire at Chevrons Contra Costa County refinery in Richmond, California. The document calls for stricter oversight of oil and chemical facilities, strengthening of emergency preparedness programs, and other measures to better protect refinery workers and the public. The writers suggest creating by September 1 an interagency task force housed within the California Environmental Protection Agency to coordinate and implement the report's recommendations. In a written statement, the chair of the US Chemical Safety Board (CSB) applauded the findings and recommendations, stating that the report represents an important step forward in improving oil refinery safety and environmental performance in California. The full report can be read here.

In light of the Motiva Port Arthur TX Refinery having 2 fires in one week recently, this is timely. The CSB investigation into the BP Texas City TX Refinery disaster that killed 15 & injured 180 was rather shocking, many organizational disconnects were found.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?
Yes 59%

Here are some scripts to import and export FSX MDL models to and from Blender. Basic documentation is included. The following FSX features are curently not supported: Animations Attach Points Platforms Some material settings but I hope to get most of these working in the future. Please let me know if you have any questions, problems or if you're missing a feature (or if you can help me understand how animations are encoded in an MDL file )
While I'm certain that some will applaud the export capabilities, be prepared for some possible grief over the importer... I cannot for the life of me imagine why any modeler would need to "import" their compiled model back into Blender (or any other 3d modeling program for that matter).
I'm keeping fingers crossed for progress on the exporter. We do need a new freeware solution to make FSX compatible aircrafts and sceneries. Thanks, Mike
Hi, Thanks, very interesting. I just started to read more about Blender with the idea of looking for some exporting tools later. May I ask why you decided to go for direct MDL export? I think the preferred way is to write the X file and let XtoMDL make the MDL file. This is also easier as XtoMDL can do a lot of optimizations for you. And I agree with Bill on the MDL import functionality. That is something we should be really careful with (especially in loading it into a modelling tool), as it would allow people to steal and modify other peoples work a lot easier.
Not to mention that by doing so, one could not use MakeMDL.parts.xml file (for FS9), or the modeldef.xml file (for FSX)... ...without which NO animations would be possible for FSX models...
A blender exporter for FSX and FS9 would be great, because we actually also convert the sceneries for X-Plane and this would no longer be necessary. Blender is THE prefered tool for X-Plane. Jörg
I'd prefer blender -> .x -> xtomdl -> mdl route too. It would be easier to make custom animations. Mike
Actually the exporter does save a .x file, and then invokes XToMdl on it. I was tempted to write the .MDL file directly (so removing the requirement to have the FSX SDK installed) but I haven't. So the user can hack the saved .x file and re-run XToMdl on it if they need to. The reason that I invoke XToMdl directly rather than just leaving this step up to the user is that I suspect that most users find running command-line tools difficult, don't know how to hack the .x file, and have no wish to hack the .x file. I intend to add support for animations. But what do you mean by "custom" animations - are there animations that you can't create using gmax and for which you have to hack the .x file? If you're a modeller interested in using Blender you need some way of getting your existing models out of gamx and into Blender. You're unlikely to want to junk all your existing models and re-create them from scratch in Blender [*]. I would have written a Blender gmax importer or a gmax exporter, except for the fact that the gmax file format is undocumented and gmax appears to be deliberately crippled to discourage people from importing or exporting. So importing the .MDL file appears to be the only practical option. I don't condone copyright infringement, but I'd point out that if people want to rip off your models they can already do so - they can use your textures and aircraft or scenery MDLs. Adding the ability to load an MDL into Blender doesn't significantly change this situation in my opinion. I'm the author of the Blender import/export scripts for X-Plane. *: As an aside, I learned about the importance of providing users with ways to migrate their content from existing apps from reading an account of how Jeff Raikes, who ran the Microsoft Applications team in I think the early 90s, took on WordPerfect. In short, if you want to supplant an existing product then you have to provide ways for users to get their content out of the existing product and into your product. Ideally, and perhaps non-obviously, you should also provide users with a way of getting their content out of your product and into the existing product so that they feel that they can safely try your product without getting locked in.
Many animations in FS9 and ALL animations in FSX are defined in XML scripts, which is then parsed by MakeMDL.exe for FS9, and XtoMDL.exe for FSX. Complicating matters is that the XML Schema used for FS9 is very different to the XML Schema developed for FSX, so you would have to branch your script depending on which platform the user is exporting for... ...or have two different scripts at a minimum. In addition, an FSX model requires an ProjectName.xamim file, which together with the ProjectName.x file are parsed by XtoMDL.exe to compile the finished .mdl file. Max/GMax simply exports animation tracks; i.e., a key-frame matrix. The conditions and all other driving information comes from the XML scripts. For example, here is an nnn.xanim for an object with a "rudder" animation file. This file would have to be generated by your Python script (or whatever handler you pass control to). It combines data from the model's animation matrix with data from the modeldef.xml file: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <AnimLib version="9.1"> <Anim name="rudder_percent_key" guid="5433b2a0-0fd9-4192-8f7d-0ba36bf7191d" length="100.000000" type="Sim" typeParam="AutoPlay" typeParam2="rudder_percent_key"> <AnimStream name="Rotation" id="0" partName="rudder" length="100.000000"> <Keyframe time="0.000000" type="Quaternion" data="0.000000;0.000000;0.000000;1.000000"/> <Keyframe time="50.000000" type="Quaternion" data="0.000000;0.000000;0.174253;0.984701"/> <Keyframe time="100.000000" type="Quaternion" data="0.000000;0.000000;0.344016;0.938964"/> </AnimStream> </Anim> </AnimLib> Here is the associated code from the modeldef.xml file for the named animation: Code: <Animation name="rudder_percent_key" guid="5433b2a0-0fd9-4192-8f7d-0ba36bf7191d" length="100" type="Sim" typeParam2="rudder_percent_key" typeParam="AutoPlay" /> <PartInfo> <Name>rudder_percent_key</Name> <AnimLength>100</AnimLength> <Animation> <Parameter> <Sim> <Variable>RUDDER DEFLECTION PCT</Variable> <Units>percent</Units> <Bias>50</Bias> </Sim> </Parameter> </Animation> </PartInfo> If you like, I can easily generate sample .x files for either FS9 or FSX (or both) for any type of animation... ...to be truly successful, your script(s) would need to replicate the .X file and .XANIM files perfectly.
Hi, In the file Blender2FSX I read for the requirements: I really the FSX Acceleration or SP2 SDK needed ? Exsist there no converter for the "simple" FSX SP1 ? Or even for FS9 models to convert to a Blender file ? As FS SP2 gives so many problems... maybe I should wait until a better way is developped or simple start from zero with Blender ? Can I install directly SP2 without SP1a and uninstall it without damage ? Or can I export from GMAX to Blender ? The discussion here is interesting but not always easy to understand. Greetz. José.
Hi, That is great to hear. I agree that most users will be happy that they don't have to compile the X file manual, so that is a good feature. I agree that in the future we would need an upgrade path to be able to edit our own work. But personally I am not sure if importing the MDL files directly is the best way. For my ModelConverterX tool I have also worked on a MDL importer, but I have not released it (yet) for these reasons. In my opinion the copyright trouble when somebody can actually edit my model, is a lot bigger than when they just use the texture or MDL file as is. But this is indeed a tricky point, maybe it would be a good idea to start a separate discussion about this topic. I have been thinking about other import option that would "prove" the user actually has the source. For FS2004 MDL files you can think of importing the ASM files (I haven't seen MDL decompilers yet). Unfortunately for FSX I did not find something that could be imported and only made if you have the sources.
I see one real advantage of decoding FSX MDL file, maybe one developer will be able to create a program similar to Aircraft Containter Manager. Setting contact points and lights directly in cfg file can be annoying Mike
Hi Arno, understand the copyright concerns but what about a special object that must be merged by the author e.g. in Gmax or FSDS and which will be compiled together with the object itself. This could be used in the MDL-file for the provement, that you own the source file? Jörg
I don't think it will work with the original RTM SDK. It may work with the SP1 SDK - I just haven't tried. Why don't you try it and see? The .x file would be a good choice for FSX (and FS9) - it would be easier to parse than trying to reverse-engineering .MDL files. But I don't think it's possible to get the FSX gmax gamepack to produce a .x file? I'm hoping to ignore FS9, on the assumption that most people have moved on to designing solely for FSX (?) That looks quite do-able - it's just a case of combining info from the modeldef file with the Pose Bone positions from Blender. I'm unsure how to handle custom animations. I hadn't realised that the only way to make custom animations in gmax appears to be to edit modeldef.xml. I'm not sure whether to follow that approach, or to provide the user with a way to input the info for custom animations in Blender. Thanks for the offer. I have enough to be getting on with in TestX.xanim at the moment, but I might want to take up your offer later.
It's not just "custom animations!" It is a case of ALL ANIMATIONS are defined and driven by embedded XML code... There's a whole lot more than simply animations that is contained in the modeldef.xml file. It also controls lighting conditions, works with custom (L:var,unit) variable types to interact with the gauge system, sets conditional code for attachpoint visibility, et cetera. All three of the new FSX Acceleration models make use of embedded XML code in the model to drive 3d gauges in the virtual cockpit, and also provide a bi-directional interface to the C gauge portion of the panel system. Many modelers are now incorporating 3d modeled gauges in their virtual cockpits, and my best guess is that this will continue to gain in popularity with FS11. In short, there's a lot more in a .mdl file these days than mesh geometry and material properties...
Hope you don´t ignore FS9, because with the limited features of the FSX-MDL-Format we will need the FS9-objects for a longer time we planned before FSX came out. I would and really would like to switch to blender in the near future but only with an FS9 exporter available. Otherwise I would stay with Gmax until we know what happens with FS11. My personal view of this topic Jörg
I hadn't realised that people still needed to use the FS9 gamepacks with FSX. I understand that the FSX MDL format doesn't allow you to make ground polygons or BGL tweaks like rotate-to-user, but I had thought that people were using the FS2002 gamepack or ASM for the former, and that the latter doesn't work so well in FSX because of problems with transparent textures. Please forgive my ignorance - what am I missing? As you can tell, I'm reluctant to put a lot of work in to import/export the FS9 format if there's not a solid reason to keep using it.
Hi Jonathan, that is the way I see the things actually and yes it is a tricky situation at the moment and for the next time until FS11 is out. An import for FS9 is not necessary in my eyes because if I have the source file in Gmax or FSDS I could also use the FSX exporter for that case. If you want to import the object in blender, one way for importing would be enough I think. The exporter would be needed for two cases: Scenery for FS9 Scenery for FSX but with an object that has to be tweaked Jörg
I got some feedback from people using my ModelConverterX tool, that the FSX X file output did also compile fine with the FS2004 MakeMDL. So for "simple" scenery objects the same X file might work in both. For animations and aircraft I guess it might not though .
I don't think the changes in the X file format are that big, so I expect it should work. But as said, just try and let us know . Yes, the X file would be great for that, but there is no way to get that from GMax indeed. At the DevCon I heard some things about XML export, but I still have to look into that. Will let you know when I have done that.

This article was published in The 30 Second Wine Advisor on Friday, Oct. 6, 2006.
One of the more frustrating experiences in wine appreciation is the discovery that the wine you've been looking forward to enjoying was the victim of a random drive-by slaying perpetrated by a tainted natural cork.
The musty, moldy, mushroomy, chlorine-scented damp-basement and wet-cardboard stench that cork taint imparts, even in homeopathic amounts, is sufficient to spoil the enjoyment of your wine and prompt pouring it out, or if you're willing to make the effort and have a cooperative wine merchant, taking it back for a refund or exchange.
Even if we grant that the incidence of cork-tainted wine has diminished somewhat in recent years, thanks to increased quality control efforts by some cork producers and wine makers, there's no question that a significant percentage of wines stoppered with natural cork will be spoiled.
But here's a twist, and I don't mean the twist of a screw cap: The other night I opened a bottle of decent Alsatian wine from a respected producer - specifically, Trimbach 2002 Pinot Blanc - only to be greeted by the telltale aroma. Tasting confirmed the first impression: Musty wet-cardboard and fruit that was muted at best left me in absolutely no doubt. I'll stake my reputation, such as it is, on my judgement that this wine was corked.
But here's where the story goes off the rails: The bottle was not fitted with a natural cork. It was closed with a slick-skinned, foam-filled synthetic stopper, a modern invention explicitly designed as a taint-free replacement for natural cork.
What's up with that? We've been kicking this topic around on our WineLovers Discussion Group, and the consensus is that the chemical malefactors involved in taint - trichloroanisole (TCA) and the less-familiar tribromoanisole (TBA) and others - is not limited to natural cork. These compounds may turn up in barrels, in wood used in winery building and other organic materials that may come in contact with wine.
It's for just this reason that the folks at Amorim - the major Portuguese cork producer that I had the pleasure of visiting last autumn - object to the term "corked" to describe tainted wine. Cork defenders argue that taint comes from many sources and that it's not fair to associate it with the bark of the Portuguese oak tree.
While I don't buy it completely - most tainted wine is affected by the cork - this tasting certainly offers a compelling wake-up call and demonstrates that alternative stoppers can't guarantee that a wine won't pick up taint from other sources.
I've E-mailed Trimbach asking for comment but at this point have had no reply. If and when the company responds, I'll pass it on.

Possibly the most awesome guy on the internet today, Strong bad is a short, chubby guy with a Mexican luchadore mask with a blue gem that uncaps things (including removing hats) and a liking for pastries. He commits crimes and capers that usually fail with his partner, The Cheat. He has two brothers, Strong Mad and Strong Sad, which look nothing like each other or Strong Bad himself, for some reason. Strong Bad hails from Parts Unknown, and recieved the egg containing The Cheat by losing a ten-step footrace to Homestar Runner. Most importantly, he answers ACTUAL emails on homestarrunner.com, and hilarity ensues. Plays very bad prank calls on Marzipan and draws a notebook paper comic called Teen Girl Squad.

Time to catch up, I have been pretty busy but I did manage to sneak in a few movies. Unfortunately, I lost track of the dates.
Stranded (2013) - A weak scifi/horror flick. 2/5. First watch.
3 A.M. 3D (2012) - A Thai anthology of 3 stories, reminded me a bit of 4bia2. 2 decent stories and one that was pretty lame. 2.5/5. First watch.
L.A. I hate you (2011) - An anthology of 4 interwoven stories that take place in L.A. 3/5. First watch.
Frightmare (1974) - Takes a bit to get going, but ended up being a decent flick. 2.5/5. First watch.
Ab-normal Beauty (2004) - Again, it is slow going until the ending, then it gets pretty interesting. 3/5. First watch.
23:59 (2011) - Just meh, nothing to write home about. 2/5. First watch.
Deep in the Woods (2000) - Thanks for the heads up on this one Lon. And you were right, as bad as it is in some respects, it is also quite well done in others. 3/5. First watch.

June 11 - V/H/S 2 (2013) - Dude! That was intense! I loved the first one, but this one really upped the ante as far as tension and gore. I really enjoyed all four segments, the first one probably being my least favorite of the bunch, and I thought that they did a better job with the wrap around segment. A sequel that bettered the original, can't wait to see what they do with the next one. 4.5/5. First watch.
June 12 - No One Lives (2013) - A gang of ruthless killers kidnap a wealthy couple traveling through their small town only to shockingly discover that things are not what they seem. A bit cliche at times, but still an enjoyable watch. 3.5/5. First watch.

June 24 - Hatchet III (2013) - Not a great film, but it was fun and a definite improvement over the 2nd film. 3/5. First watch.

June 26 - Lesson of the Evil (2012) - Takashi Miike's latest offering. It takes a while to get going, but if you can sit through the annoying teenagers in the first half of the movie, you will be pleasantly surprised by the second act. 3.5/5. First watch.
June 27 - The Other Hell (1980) - So bad that I couldn't make it through it before sending it back.

That's a pretty wicked set of films you watched that day, P. I watched Mama a few weeks ago and loved it. I'm not sure why I've heard so much negativity about it otherwise. Wind Chill is also a good ghost film.
Yes, that was THE day. Mama is so freaking creepy, been a long while I haven't been that terrorized by a film. The ending man. WOAH!!I don't understand why anybody would hate it. The damn kids these days. Wind Chill is indeed a very wild ride. Tension from beginning to end, BIG tension.
Jessica Chastain was pretty hot in that film too. I totally dug her rocker look. As for Wind Chill, I had a blast watching that. I love a good ghostly adventure (and that's what it was, to me).

Do stats reveal abuse of the right to challenge an arbitral award for serious irregularity?
The accusation: that section 68 of the Arbitration Act 1996 (which allows challenges to arbitral awards for serious irregularity) is relied on frequently and frivolously by parties wanting to frustrate an award as long as possible, having 'lost' the arbitration. Do the 2012 statistics of challenges to arbitral awards in the English courts negate or support this accusation?

Vertigo: 2005/06
Phoenix to Denver
A fourteen hour bus ride wouldn't be most people's idea of fun, in fact the idea of buses being an acceptable mode of transport must be one of the touring concepts that civilians struggle with, but when you have the right bus and the right people on board it can be really cosy and a lot of fun.
There are six buses on the tour (though only part time, as I'll explain later) and being a visitor to this half of the touring party I have been making guest appearances on a variety of buses. This was the first serious drive though, so I plumped for maximum fun and rode the ìchick busî, which carries five of the women on the crew , plus a smattering of Y chromosomes including Bruce from lighting and Smasher from video.
Directly after (or in truth usually slightly before) the show is over, the load-out begins. A touring production of this size can be dismantled and put away in an astonishingly short amount of time. We have sixteen truckfuls of gear and even at this early stage are averaging about two hours and 45 minutes to get it all out of the building and on the road. It'll get quicker. Flight cases, road boxes and large pieces of metal fly out of the building, aided by a local crew of around 90 people and accompanied by not a little grunting and shouting. Frankly, its terrifying to witness from close range.
The various crew members will get finished with their bit of the load out at different times and as the buses contain people from a selection of departments they fill up gradually. (In these modern times they're generally sorted on a smoking / non-smoking basis.) You've no doubt seen the rock tour buses in the movies. American buses tend to be big, shiny things and inside are divided into three sections. There's a front lounge with couches, a table, hi-fi, TV, video, etc., a kitchen area and toilet. At the other end is a similar but smaller 'back lounge'; traditionally the setting for many a teenage deflowering back in the hey days of rock and roll. In between the two lounges, the centre portion is fitted out with bunks - usually two deep and three high with a corridor down the centre. Most buses have twelve bunks, but generally it's considered inhumane to fill them to capacity. One or two spare 'junk bunks' are extremely handy for storing crap. Everyone's big bags go in 'the bay' - a series of luggage holds along the side of the vehicle which are only accessible from outside, so usually you'd have a small bus bag as well. The buses are stocked with food and provisions each day, so as load-out progresses, the passengers roll up clean and sparkling from having showered (one hopes) then essentially get into their pyjamas and start drinking. The default bus outfit is tour swag so it gets pretty comedic, everyone wearing identical sweats and t-shirts, like a multiple birth daycare centre with adult beverages. It was Chinese food tonight which I thoroughly enjoyed. Bruce got the iPod cranked in the back lounge and we all jammed ourselves in there. The bus was still rocking when I crawled into my bunk at about 6.30am, having watched the sun rise over the desert. Even with the engine noise and residual bass coming from the stern, a tour bus bunk is extremely cosy and the motion of the vehicle rocks you all night. I'm sure it must sound like a nightmare, but I always sleep well.
Woke up about 3pm and staggered into the front lounge to see who was about. Smasher was up, as was Sandy our head caterer. Others gradually filtered in and made coffee, as we learned we still had four hours to go. We watched 'The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' which I had never seen and didn't really live up to its premise. Pretty much slid into the category of 'trying too hard', but it had a couple of laughs in it and most importantly it passed the time. I decided to go into party host mode and after assessing the available raw materials I started (slowly) producing a meal of sorts. The bacon sandwiches were fairly straightforward, the meatless hotdogs sounded awful but were appreciated by the clientele, then the piece de resistance was the roast chicken. Well, ok, it was a pre-cooked supermarket number, but I did do battle with the onboard microwave to get the thing to an acceptable temperature, all the while ëbus surfing'.
We made it to Denver by about 6pm, checked into the hotel and slunk off to bed, the bar, whereverÖ We lose the buses now, which is a shame. The shows on this next part of the tour are spread so far apart that its vastly more economical to fly everybody for the next couple of trips, which sounds more luxurious but again the reverse logic of the road proves otherwise. There'll be bags to carry, nowhere to hang out at the gig or slip away for an afternoon nap. We'll see the buses after Chicago, but by then I will have rejoined the band party, so it may be a little while before I get another chance to show off my culinary expertise aboard a moving vehicle.

I was planning on resurrecting the tour diary today, being the day we were scheduled to fly to Auckland for the load-in tomorrow. However, its now old news that the remainder of the tour dates have been postponed, so Im not going anywhere further than the corner cafe.

text: Kids often put things up their noses besides their fingers that can get stuck up there. I'm Dr. Alan Greene and let's talk about how to get things out. One of my own children put 5 peas up his nose. If there are things that are stuck up in the nose, if you can still see them, you grab a pair of tweezers and gently try to pull them out. If you can't see them, you might have some help by closing the other nostril and having them blow out hard to get it where you can see it and then pull it with tweezers. But if they're up there, you can't see them, you can't get them out, it's time for a trip to the doctor. They have different tools that'll enable them get them out more easily. With the peas in my son, we used a little nose vacuum and got them out one by one.
