In a ruling yesterday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Robert H. O'Brien, on behalf of Judge Maureen Duffy-Lewis vacated an arbitration decision by a California State Athletic Commmission arbitrator that voided boxer Robert Guerrero's promotional agreement with Goossen Tutor Promotions, finding "The award was procured by corruption, fraud or other undue means." California Code of Civil Procedure § 1286.2(a)(1). Goossen's counsel, Nomi Castle, of Castle and Associates in Century City, CA, stated "As a practical matter, Goossen Tutor Promotions is still the promoter of Mr. Guerrero and I'll leave it to my client to discuss his future promotional plans."

We can then add that with the sentence "Add support for MIPS64R2 on the Malta platform." That will be sufficient and prevents having to split this patch up.

Mt. Everest 2006: FANTASY INTO REALITY
Bottom of Fantasy Ridge: it starts with a steep technical climb and then with an awkward almost horizontal pitch before some elevation is gain.
Fantasy Ridge is the last major unclimbed ridge of Mt. Everest. Although there have been more than two thousand summits of Everest, no summit was ever achieved by way of Fantasy Ridge. Furthermore, less than a handful of expeditions have succeeded on the Kangshung side of the mountain.
The ridge presents a formidable challenge: first, because of the lack of any precise information regarding its geography; second, lack of evaluation of the make up of rock and snow; and third, the unknown but ever-present danger of avalanche. The ridge is also exposed to the full strength of morning sun which normally amplifies the danger of falling rock and melting ice which produces avalanches.
Fantasy Ridge was named by George Leigh Mallory. It is thought that the name refers to the impossible difficulty of the terrain and the belief that a successful traverse exists only in �fantasy.� Also referred to as East Ridge due to its position in relation to Mt. Everest, the name Fantasy Ridge stuck. The ridge presents an awkward, long, almost horizontal pitch with cornice ridges often on both sides. Attacking the ridge will require a new, radical approach, including the possibility of climbing early mornings and at night when the sun is less of a factor. The ascent is a combination of alpine and expedition style. The latter style will be employed as insurance against the need for evacuation, either for injury or because further progress is impossible.
Previous attempts by classical approach from Kharta had the problem of the two week trek to base camp during which time expeditions faced delay and exhaustion.
Our approach has never been considered.
Second half of Fantasy Ridge: Crevasses were observed at this altitude but an alpine style will be almost certain the choice of ascent.
Acknowledging the reality of an almost impossible rescue evacuation in case of serious injury, ropes will be necessary to leave behind an exit strategy. Upon reaching the bottom of the ridge, a decision will be made based on the ground snow and ice conditions. An early start of the expedition gives a better chance of avoiding avalanches and falling rock by climbing in colder temperatures. On the other hand, the colder temperatures are more likely to produce frostbite and prolonged exposure. Conditions will be carefully weighed before we choose the lesser evil. From this point on there will be little permanent fixed rope. Traveling light and fast will be the goal.
As formidable as it may seem, the East Ridge ends on the Northeast Ridge at 7800 meters, more than 1000 meters below the summit of Mt Everest. From there the notorious Pinnacles will have to be overcome. This presents a classic, highly technical high altitude mountaineering climb. At that time the mountain conditions, the time left in the expedition and our over all physical and mental condition will determine how we will proceed for the summit.

The asteroid belt surrounds the inner solar system like a rocky, ring-shaped moat, extending out from the orbit of Mars to that of Jupiter. But there are voids in that moat, most notably where the orbital influence of Jupiter is especially potent; any asteroid unlucky enough to venture into one of those so-called Kirkwood gaps (named for mathematician Daniel Kirkwood) will be perturbed and ejected from the cozy confines of the belt, often winding up on a collision course with one of the inner, rocky planets (such as Earth) or the moon.
But Jupiter's pull cannot account for the extent of the belt's depletion today or for the spotty distribution of asteroids across the belt—unless there was a migration of planets early in the history of the solar system, according to new research.
Study co-authors David Minton and Prof. Renu Malhotra, planetary scientists at the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory in Tucson, report in Nature today that an orbital migration of Jupiter and Saturn four billion years ago may explain the observed distribution of asteroids.
The researchers designed a computer model of the asteroid belt under the influence of the outer "gas giant" planets, allowing them to test the distribution that would result from changes in the planets' orbits over time. A simulation wherein the orbits remained static, Minton says, did not agree with observational evidence. "There were places," he says, "where there should have been a lot more asteroids than we saw."
On the other hand, a simulation with an early migration of Jupiter inward and Saturn outward, the result of interactions with lingering planetesimals (small bodies) from the creation of the solar system, fit the observed layout of the belt much better. The uneven spacing of asteroids "is readily explained by this planet-migration process that other people have worked on," says Minton, a graduate student. In particular, "if Jupiter had started somewhat farther from the sun and then migrated inward toward its current location," the gaps it carved into the belt would also have inched inward, leaving the belt looking much like it does now.
Joseph Hahn, a specialist in planetary dynamics at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colo., says that the new research bolsters the case for early planetary migration. "The good agreement between the simulated and observed asteroid distributions," he says, "is actually quite remarkable." Jack Wisdom, a planetary scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, says that most in the field buy into the planetary-migration theory in general. "The really interesting question, not addressed in this paper, is the pattern of migration," he says—whether the asteroid belt can be used to rule out one of the competing theories of migratory patterns.
One issue raised by the new study, Hahn says, is the speed at which the planets' orbits changed. Minton and Malhotra's simulation presumes a rather rapid migration of a million or two million years, but "other models of Neptune's early orbital evolution tend to show that migration proceeds much more slowly," over tens of millions of years, Hahn says. "I suspect that follow-up studies of the solar system's early history will also have to reconcile these two very different timescales, which will hopefully lead to greater understanding of the solar system's early evolution."
By Jove! Distribution of the Asteroid Belt Reveals Giant Planets' Orbital Migration
The solar system's giant outer planets appear to have sculpted the asteroid belt as they settled into their current orbits

FM radio policy within few weeks, says Reddy
New Delhi, September 28 Talking to The Tribune, Mr Reddy disclosed that his Ministry which has remained low profile so far, will announce several initiatives in the next few days. The national FM radio policy will be announced in a few weeks. When asked whether the government would allow FM radios to broadcast news as well, he declined to make any comment, adding that the government was seized of the issue. Mr Reddy said the ministry has also proposed to rationalise the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) investment in the print and electronic media. We have proposed to rationalise the 26 per cent FDI limit for the electronic and print media and have proposed that either FDI or foreign institutional investors (FIIs) should be allowed to hold 26 per cent stake in the print and electronic media, he said. At present, he said, the listed print and electronic media were allowed to offer 26 per cent stakes to the foreign partners, but the government would allow FIIs also to invest up to that limit to bring more investment in the sector, besides technological upgradation. Trai had recently submitted its recommendations to the government on licencing issues relating to second Phase of Private FM Radio Broadcasting. The suggestions included a new licensing regime consisting of one-time entry fee and a revenue share of 4 per cent, migration of Phase I licensees to the revised Phase II regime in case they are successful in the bidding for Phase II besides recommending a low entry fee to maximise the number of players so as to afford the widest possible competition. The Trai has also recommended allowing the maximum number of frequencies possible in metros, Hyderabad and Bangalore. A minimum of two frequencies should be offered even in the smallest town in order to ensure competition, variety of programming and keeping low entry cost. It has also recommended that the existing restriction on news and current affairs should be reviewed by government and lifted after incorporating adequate safeguards. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting had on February 12 sent the report of the Radio Broadcast Policy Committee to Trai for making appropriate recommendations. The committee was headed by Dr Amit Mitra, secretary-general, Ficci. |
PC favours flexibility in labour market
New Delhi, September 28 We must introduce some flexibility in the labour market, he said after launching the temporary employment network portal www.teamlease.com We have allowed some flexibility, except for industrial workers. Even for industrial workers, there is a thinking for doing away with some rigidities, he added. Saying that no employer could ensure lifetime employment to employees, Mr Chidambaram said labour flexibility was essential to leapfrog and plunge into the global economy. During the business upturn, the companies would like to employ more people and during ebb, they may like to shun some of the workers. So it was essential to have flexibility, he added. Temporary staffing is a $ 140 billion global industry that is relatively new in India but gaining rapid acceptance. Teamlease estimates that reforms and amendments to various regulations that hinder temporary employment could raise the white-collar temporary staff population in India from the current 50,000 to over 14 million in three years, Teamlease Managing Director Ashok Reddy said. TeamLease Services is a staffing solutions company for individuals seeking part-time or flexible employment and businesses seeking recruitment and flexible staffing solutions. At present, the company has offices in Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow, Ahmedabad and Pune. TeamLease has over 9500 associates in over 204 locations across India and operates across all major functional and industry verticals.
Tata rings the bell at NYSE
New York, September 28 The company listed its stock yesterday, after converting its Global Depository Receipts (GDRs) into American Depository Receipts (ADRs). Stocks of foreign companies on the NYSE are listed as ADRs. Chairman Ratan N. Tata of the company, Indias first engineering firm to list its stock on the Big Board, was present on the NYSE floor. He rang the opening bell to mark the beginning of the trade for the day. Senior company officials and NYSE officeholders were present on the occasion. Mr Tata said: We are confident the company will benefit from the capital market access that this listing provides, and from the adoption of the comprehensive corporate governance standards. The company will, now on, have to publish its financial results in accordance with Americas generally accepted accounting principles, known as GAAP. The ADRs represent 6.4 per cent of the companys paid-up share capital. Tata Motors shares are listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange as well as the National Stock Exchange in India, where its market capitalisation is around Rs 15,000 crore. Consequent to the NYSE listing, the shares of Tata Motors on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange stood suspended, according to a news release. Tata Motors the eighth Indian company to get listed on the NYSE has manufacturing plants in Jamshedpur, Pune and Lucknow. The company exports its vehicles to Southeast Asia, Middle East, Africa and Europe. It has a market share of 17 per cent in India, where it is considered the second largest player. The other seven firms from India on the NYSE are Dr Reddys Laboratories, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd, Satyam Computers, Videsh Sanchar Nigam Ltd and Wipro. Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata said on Monday the Indian conglomerates auto division has had talks with a Chinese manufacturer about building a passenger car for China, the worlds fastest growing vehicle market. Tata declined to name the prospective Chinese partner but told reporters that it has been looking to produce a small car for the Chinese market, perhaps a variant of its Indica model. He said it was premature to talk about when the company would unveil cars in the Chinese market. Mr Tata said he hopes the New York Stock Exchange listing will give Tata Motors, which has 60 per cent share in the Indian vehicle market, the visibility it needs to traverse new markets. In addition to China, Mr Tata said, the company is targeting Europe, South Africa and Southeast Asia with a mix of vehicles, including small passenger cars, pick-up trucks and heavy trucks. It does not now have heavy trucks in its product line.

Insurers to oppose FDI hike move
Chandigarh, September 28 Addressing a joint press conference, Mr R.P Manchanda, former president of the association and Mr S.S Kooner, president of the North Zone Insurance Employees Association, said an increase in foreign equity in insurance would increase the ability of the private companies to manipulate and exploit the insurance market. This and few other pertinent issues having a bearing on the insurance sector would be discussed at the three-day 27th general conference beginning here tomorrow. The conference would urge the government for a public opinion once the foreign holding is raised to 49 per cent, in the event of the Indian partner putting up his share for public offer, the foreign partner would be the majority shareholder and would effectively control the company. Thus, foreign capital will gain greater access and control over domestic savings. The issue of wage revision of LIC employees, which is due since August 2002, will also be deliberated upon. Talking about the workload, they said some time ago 7,000 policies were being handled by 94,000 employees and now 17,000 policies were being handled by 80,000 employees. Hence, they would call upon the government to settle the wage dispute as the LIC employees have produced more, served more policies, settled more claims and mobilised more funds. The association has already given a call for one-hour walkout strike on October 7 and two-hour walk out strike on October 29. However, if the authorities concerned do not resolve the issue through negotiations, they would be forced to go on a one-day strike in November. |
MP attracting industries again
Bhopal, September 28 Two units set up in the Special Economic Zone, Indore, have gone into production and the government expects to receive proposals for the establishment of new industries. |
GSM players may approach court
Singapore, September 28 The consultation process initiated by Trai is worrisome. The approach appears to be favouring CDMA operators, Mr Mittal told reporters on the sidelines of the 3GSM World Congress Asia 2004 here. If the outcome is not in the right directions, the matter will go to courts. It is going to be another long-drawn battle, he said. Leading private cellular operators, including Bharti, BPL, Hutch and Idea, have already applied for 3G cellular licences, COAI said, adding while the imminent unified telecom licences will allow existing operators to offer both 2G and 3G services, band 1900 MHz (known as IMT 2000) spectrum is undoubtedly reserved for 3G services and applications and should only be used for the same.
Expansion plans
Eyeing a market share of 22 per cent this year, Indias largest private-sector telecom player Bharti Televentures will invest $ 1400 million during 2004-06 for expanding the companys network infrastructure in the country.

Voila I have to succeed has to install the HOME I connect I arrive on the homepage and I have the message " you have not access to the world of home! Anybody can help me?
Sorry for my English i'm French
wish someone with home would upload the home game save. I think I have an idea. but I need that game save.
Ask and ye shall receive.
One of our DEV's dug this up, we wanted to hold off on releasing this until the open beta, but it seems needed now, so it will be released!
He did a bit of network sniffing, and discovered that HOME connects here:
Aside from the archives, the SELF and other interesting files, the real interesting one that seems important at the moment is the: http://game-updates.online.scee.com:...NCHOPTIONS.XML
Now I don't have HOME here to tinker, but that max players option seems interesting, someone mind try changing it to something other than zero?
Nevertheless, its more pieces to the puzzle!

So I've set up the PS3 Proxy Server program, set the IP to 192.168.1.102... that's the IP of my computer, is that right? I saw people posting 192.168.1.96... but whenever I put that in, I get an error in the proxy program. I have no idea where I should be looking for this thing on my PS3, or why it would be here now because I've replaced 3 files. Any advice is helpful, thanks.
Tried changing the falses to trues in data.xml and tried changing the 0 to a higher value in the gamelaunchoptions.xml, but still no luck. I have to think we are on the right path though.

Yeah, it SHOULD be the IP of your computer that you enter into the Proxy Program....
You also enter that same IP address into the Proxy Settings on the PS3...
(At least that's how it works with the F@H method.)

I bought this iMAC last year. One day there was a power cut and my UPS did not work. MAC suddently shut down. When i switched it on again it's fan started creating too much noise. Previously it was almost silent but now the noise is more than what comes out of a Windows CPU. There are dark spots/ patches on my screen. There were only 2 a few months back but now they are increasing. Someone suggested that the capacitors need to be reset or something. Please advise. Gaurav |

Is sounds like a hardware problem. Which iMac do you have? Tell us the model and year and what version of OS X you're running. And if you just purchased it new last year, assuming it's less than a year old, you may want to make an appointment with your local Apple store genius bar and have it looked at.

Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard NVIDIA GeForce GT 130 graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR3 memory 24-inch model with 2.93GHz processor Intel Core 2 Duo processor 640GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA hard drive *********** (Serial No. W89162010TL). I bought this for my cousin for her studies. I got this machine for INR 87,000. I approached the reseller from whom I bought this machine. After diagnose I was advised that the LCD screen & motherboard needs to be replaced. The total cost as they advised is INR 70,000. When I bought this machine as a customer I was not told about the hardware replacement costs. I was not even told about the Apple care package in detail. Therefore even after investing a big sum of INR 87000 I did not buy the apple care package which is for only INR 9000. As a customer I am a novice in Apple hardware and I would have expected the apple reseller to tell me the following things in detail: Why is Apple offering the care package. Why isn't Microsoft or IBM offering such packages. What is its use and how will it help me. What are the various hardware costs and what will be the implications if I am not covered by this apple care package. Being a student it is not at all possible for my cousin to invest another INR 70,000 to get the LCD & motherboard replaced. Her studies have now come to a complete halt as we bought this iMAC for her studies. So I have had to take a stand and make things work for her. I am extremely happy with the Apple technology as a whole. Not once in these 1.3 years did I face any problem of viruses or crashed software. This is so user friendly as compared to Windows. However just because of the extremely poor services and utter lack of professionalism by the resellers I would not like to recommend an Apple machine to anyone at all. Apple reseller from whom I bought this machine: Unicorn Infosolutions Pvt. Ltd. B/9, Shivalik Malviya Nagar, New Delhi – 17, INDIA Tel No. : 011-40661666/ 9811471944 I WANT TO RAISE THIS ISSUE DIRECTLY WITH THE APPLE INDIA COUNTRY HEAD AND APPLE GLOBAL SALES HEAD. I HAVE NOT GOT ANY HELP FROM APPLE CUSTOMER CARE AS WELL. CAN YOU IF POSSIBLE HELP ME WITH THE NAMES & EMAIL IDs OF THESE PEOPLE? I GOT TO KNOW THAT APPLE INDIA SALES HEAD IS "MANEESH DHIR". BUT CAN'T FIND HIS EMAIL ID. Gaurav B. |

You need to deal directly with Apple India with your concerns. These forums are in no way affiliated with Apple nor are the folks who post here Apple employees (in any official capacity).
Go back to the reseller and ask to speak with their superiors or contact Apple India direct. Since you're in India, it would certainly be easier for you to obtain their email address or phone number. |

From The Heritage Foundation, I'm Ernest Istook.
Foreign oil isn't America's only problem. We also depend on foreign sources for everyday needs like chocolate.
We consume 20% of the world's chocolate, but only produce 6% of the cocoa. We consume 16% of the world's coffee, but grow less than 1%. We make less than 1% of the TV sets, but use 17% of them.
So why don't we subsidize alternatives to chocolate, coffee and television sets? Then we could also claim that we ' re creating jobs.
Instead, we should be glad that other countries want what we make and will trade those other things to us that we want.
We're throwing billions at insolvent green energy companies based on distortions of the facts. You have to twist definitions to claim that we only have 2% of the world's oil reserves. The federal Energy Department says otherwise. America has a 200-year supply of oil, if we're willing to tap into it.

Liu, Yubo (2002) Performance analysis of optimized link state routing (OLSR) protocol. Masters thesis, Concordia University.
| PDF 3699Kb |
The mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is referred to as autonomous system of mobile routers, connected by wireless links. MANET can be applied when networks need to be rapidly deployable, without prior planning or any existing infrastructure. OLSR protocol is an optimization of the pure link state protocol for mobile ad-hoc networks. It concentrates on functions at the IP layer while any protocol such as IEEE 802.11 can be used in the underlying MAC layer. Multipoint Relays (MPR) are introduced so as to minimize flooding of control messages. This technique significantly reduces the number of retransmission and network congestion. In this work we emphasize the performance analysis of OLSR. A detailed protocol simulation model is established in C++. The main performance criteria are throughput, overhead, buffer overflow, transfer delay, etc. We give herein detailed evaluation and explanation of the simulation results.

SISWANTORO, HERI (2007) A STUDY ON THE ERRORS OF SUBJECT-VERBAGREMENTS MADE BY STUDENTS IN THEIR THESES. Other thesis, University of Muhammadiyah Malang.
A_STUDY_ON_THE_ERRORS_OF_SUBJECT.pdf Download (143kB) | Preview |
Students often do the errors of English not only in speech but also in written form. And this case also happened on the Thesis Writing. The errors occur because the learner has not internalized the grammar of the second language. In other words, errors appear because of the lack of competence therefore, errors are systematic. The purpose of this research is to know the errors types of subject-verb agreement and to know the dominant errors of subject-verb agreement made by students in their theses. This study used descriptive qualitative research. It has objectives of identifying and classifying the errors of subject-verb agreement found in chapter I of background of study on English Department students' theses of Muhammadiyah University of Malang published in 2003. This study used document to collect the data. The document in this study is English Department students' theses published in 2003. The writer took 43 of 86 theses as the population of this research. The findings showed that there are three types of subject-verb agreements error, namely basic subject-verb agreement error, subject-verb agreement with indefinite pronouns error and subject-verb agreement using expression of quantity. The data showed that the highest frequency of occurrence of the error types is basic subject-verb agreement (94%), followed by error of subject-verb agreement using expression of quantity (3%), and error of subject-verb agreement with indefinite pronouns (3%) The writer expects that the result of this study will be useful for the advisor and students. For the students, they have to establish the framework of their study of English grammar especially in subject-verb agreement. So, they can make good and correct sentences. For the advisor, he/ she has to give extra attention in thesis guidance, especially in subject-verb agreement forms.

well, you can't expect them to sell that good if the Wii U is not treated as the other current gen consoles
Wii U owners can fight online, but can't fight with their friends. All other versions can connect their games to the IOS version to obtain unlockables, guess which console doesn't? While it is a good game, the Off TV capability is not enough...

Trouble in Paradise is a 1932 American pre-Code romantic comedy film directed by Ernst Lubitsch, starring Miriam Hopkins, Kay Francis, and Herbert Marshall and featuring Charles Ruggles and Edward Everett Horton. Based on the 1931 play The Honest Finder (A Becsületes Megtaláló) by Hungarian playwright László Aladár,[2] the film is about a gentleman thief and a lady pickpocket who join forces to con a beautiful perfume company owner.
In 1991, Trouble in Paradise was selected for preservation by the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".[3]
In Venice, Gaston Monescu (Herbert Marshall), a master thief masquerading as a baron, meets Lily (Miriam Hopkins), a beautiful thief and pickpocket also pretending to be of the nobility, and the two fall in love and decide to team up. They leave Venice for Paris, and go to work for the famous perfume manufacturer Madame Mariette Colet (Kay Francis), with the intention of stealing a great sum of money from her safe, which Monescu, as her secretary, arranges to be diverted there. In the course of things, Colet begins to flirt with Monescu, and he begins to have feelings for her.
Unfortunately, the plan develops a hitch when François Filiba (Edward Everett Horton), one of Colet's suitors, sees Monescu at a garden party. He is unable to remember where he knows him from, but when another of Colet's suitors, The Major (Charles Ruggles), tells Filiba that he once mistook Monescu for a doctor, Filiba suddenly remembers that he knows Monescu from Venice, where the thief robbed him, pretending to be a doctor. Monescu and Lily plan an immediate getaway that night, after they take all the money in the safe.
Colet prepares to leave for a dinner party given by the Major, but cannot decide whether to go or to stay and have sex with Monescu. Eventually she goes, but not before Lily catches on that Monescu has fallen for her rival, and wants to back out of the plan – so she robs the safe herself after confronting her partner. At the Major's, Filiba tells Colet about Monescu, but she refuses to believe it's true. She returns home and suggestively probes Monescu, who admits that the safe has been cleaned out, but claims that he himself took the cash. He also tells her that the manager of her business, Adolph J. Giron (C. Aubrey Smith), who has been suspicious of Monescu all along, has stolen millions of dollars from the firm over the years.
Lily then confronts Colet and Monescu, reporting that it was she who stole the money from the safe. An argument ensues, in which, eventually, Colet allows the two thieves to leave together. As a parting shot, Monescu steals a necklace from Colet that Lily had her eye on, and, in turn, Lily steals it from him, displaying it to him as the taxi takes them away, hugging each other.

Working titles for Trouble in Paradise included "The Honest Finder," "Thieves and Lovers," and "The Golden Widow"; the latter was publicly announced to be the intended release title.[4] As with all the Lubitsch-Raphaelson collaborations, Lubitsch contributed to the writing and Raphaelson contributed ideas to the directing.[5] Lubitsch did not receive screen credit for his writing, and Grover Jones, who was credited with the adaptation, did not contribute significantly:[5] although he was in the room, his credit was based on a contractual obligation, and he did little more than tell stories.[5][6] Further, although supposedly based on László Aladár's 1931 play The Honest Finder, Lubitsch suggested that Raphaelson not read the play, and instead the main character, Herbert Marshall's master thief, was based on the exploits of a real person, Georges Manolescu, an Hungarian con man whose memoir was published in 1907, and became the basis for two silent films.[5]
Made before effective enforcement of the Production Code, the film is an example of pre-code cinema containing adult themes and sexual innuendo that was not permitted under the Code. In 1935, when the Production Code was being enforced, the film was not approved for reissue[4] and was not seen again until 1968.[7] Paramount was again rejected in 1943, when the studio wanted to make a musical version of the film.[4]
The Art Deco sets for Trouble in Paradise were designed by the head of Paramount's art department, Hans Dreier, and the gowns were designed by Travis Banton.[5]
Trouble in Paradise was the film that first had people talking about "the Lubitsch Touch," and it was, in fact, one of the director's favorites.[5] Critic Dwight Macdonald said of the film that it was "as close to perfection as anything I have ever seen in the movies."[5] The New York Times named the film as one of the ten best films of 1932. In 1998, Roger Ebert added it to his Great Movies collection.[8] Wes Anderson and Ralph Fiennes both said the movie was an inspiration for The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Awards and honors[edit]

Delighterrific Wordoodles
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words, but with these wacky puzzles, a picture's worth a single, mashed-up word, a thousand chuckles, and several good-natured groans. In PhenomeNonsense, you are presented with a small deck of cards, each one illustrated with a surreal image that mashes together two different things. The fun is in trying to guess what new word is created by smashing the overlapping sounds of those objects' names. For example, a picture of a rain storm where the raindrops are mathematical buttons is a...."calculatorrent"! Answers are printed on the back of the cards--but don't flip them over too fast, because puzzling through them is half the fun. A great for developing creativity and lateral thinking, it makes a memorable icebreaker at parties, and is fun to share with others once you know the answers yourself. Comes packaged in a metal tin. Made in California.

5. A packing laminate in accordance with claim 4, wherein the coating is applied to the fiber layer in the form of an aqueous dispersion carrying up to 12 percent by weight binder and up to 76 percent by weight pigment.
6. A packing container for liquid contents, comprising:
a packing laminate having at least one layer of fibrous material with outer layers of plastic material, a layer of color material hardenable through electron irradiation provided on one of the outer layers, and a coating located between the fibrous layer and the outer layer on which the layer of color material is provided, the coating comprising a material capable of absorbing electrons used for hardening the color layer and directed toward the outer layer on which the layer of color material is provided. Description The present invention relates to a packing laminate intended for the manufacture of liquid-tight packing containers as well as to the use of such a packing laminate for the manufacture of packing containers for liquid contents, e.g. milk, and a packing container manufactured from the packing laminate. Within the technique of packaging, non-returnable packages have been used for a long time which are manufactured from a packing laminate which consists of one or more carrier layers of paper or cardboard together with outer and inner coatings of thermoplastics, such as polyethylene. Frequently, the packing laminate in these so-called non-returnable packages is provided with a further layer of some other material, e.g. aluminium foil or plastic layers other than those mentioned here. The composition of the packing laminate is designed to produce the best possible product protection for the goods which are to be packaged, as well as offering simple and convenient handling to the consumer. To achieve mechanical rigidity which, on the one hand, provides mechanical protection for the contents and, on the other hand, renders the package sufficiently form-stable so that it can be handled without any difficulty and gripped by hand, the packages of this type frequently are provided with a carrier layer of paper or cardboard which imparts rigidity of form and mechanical strength to the package. However, such a carrier layer possesses no tightness properties for gases or liquids, and the proper rigidity of the material disappears when the same is exposed to moisture or liquid which is absorbed into the material. In order to impart good liquid-tightness to the material, it is frequently laminated with a plastic material, and if this is thermoplastic (e.g. polyethylene) it may be used moreover, for sealing plastic layers to one another with the help of heat and pressure (so-called hot-sealing) and in this manner the packing container can be sealed and made permanent in its given form in that overlapping material panels, which are thermoplastic-coated, are heat-sealed to each other in a tight and mechanically strong seal. Packing containers of the type mentioned here are usually manufactured either from blanks punched out beforehand or from a continuous web which has been prepared with suitable decoration of advertising and/or informative character and with a pattern of crease lines facilitating the fold-forming. Packing containers are made from such a web in that longitudinal edges of the web are joined to each other in an overlap joint so as to form a tube which subsequently is filled with the intended contents and is divided into individual, closed packing containers through repeated transverse sealings of the tube at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the tube. After suitable fold-forming of the packing material in the tube the material in the said packing containers is converted to the desired geometrical form, usually a parallelepiped, by providing the tube with longitudinal folding lines and with double-walled triangular folding lugs at the corners of the packing container. As an example of a known parallelepipedic packing container may be mentioned Tetra Brik (registered trademark) for the packaging of primarily liquid or semiliquid dairy products, e.g. milk, but also other types of beverages such as juice. In view of the very strong growing market for non-returnable packing containers, there has been an unavoidable call (not least from the side of the consumer) for providing the packing containers with some type of visual identification mark in the form, for example, of colored patterns with some associated text and/or figures in order to distinguish a certain container from "rather similar" other containers and also for a clear indication of quality, date of packaging, keeping property etc. of the packed product. Such an advertising and/or information marking of packing containers is realized mainly in connection with the manufacture of the packing laminate and may be done, for example, in that a laminate web of continuous packing container blanks, plastics-coated on both sides and provided with crease lines, is introduced between and through the nip of rollers rotating in pairs close to each other, whereof one serves as an inking roller and consequently applies printing ink onto one side of the web according to a pattern corresponding to the desired marking on the finished package while the other roller in each such pair of rollers acts as a counter-pressure roller against the other side of the web passing by in accordance with conventional printing technique, whereupon the printed web is either rolled up into finished rolls or is divided up into individual packing container blanks for further transport to a packing machine for forming, filling and closing of the packing containers. Since this printing of decorations or patterns in printing plants usually takes place at very high production capacities, it is frequently an essential requirement that the printing ink composition used should be of a type to make possible a production-adapted rapid drying or hardening of the web before the web is rolled up or divided up into individual container blanks. This requirement is met satisfactorily by the known EB-hardenable (electron beam) printing ink compositions which contain monomers and/or oligomers hardenable by electron irradiation, and in the case of which a practically instantaneous "drying" (hardening) is possible by exposing the printed side of the web to electron irradiation of sufficient intensity. Among the merits of the method may also be counted the exceptionally good wear resistance of the hardened color layer which is obtained and which is a result of the hardening reaction initiated through electron irradiation of the printing ink composition applied. However such a printing method with electron irradiation in the form it is carried out at present is not entirely meritorious, but in fact has disadvantages too which, at least in parts, are assumed to be due to undesirable irradiation effects and which as a further consequence bring about impaired tightness properties of packing containers manufactured from such a decoration-printed packing laminate. Without being committed to any particular scientific theory, it is reasonable to assume that the irradiating electrons, in order to initiate the hardening action, must have allocated to them such energy that they thereby become sufficiently energetic to penetrate through the outer irradiated plastic layer and down into the underlying fiber layer, with a certain molecular degradation and/or structural alteration in that layer as a consequence. Thus, it has been found that moisture-repellent properties of a paper layer included in a known packing laminate so irradiated are drastically impaired, and that, as a result thereof, the packing laminate has become more moisture-sensitive and, consequently, less suitable for the manufacture of packing containers for liquid contents. This disadvantage has been overcome in accordance with the present invention with the help of a packing laminate which beside the layers of fibrous material and color-carrying plastics mentioned here has been provided, moreover, with a coating located between these layers with the properties particularly pointed out in claim 1. Comparative tests have shown, in fact, that liquid-filled packing containers manufactured from such a packing laminate possess a smaller tendency towards absorbing liquid into the packing material than comparable packing containers which had been manufactured from packing laminate according to known techniques. This, against the background of the earlier assumption, must be interpreted to mean that the extra coating of the packing laminate in accordance with the invention protects the underlying fiber layer against penetration of electrons affecting the structure in connection with the electron irradiation of the packing laminate during the color printing. Specially suitable embodiments of such a packing laminate within the scope of the general inventive concept defined in claim 1 possess the characteristics specified more closely in the dependent claims. The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the attached drawing, wherein FIG. 1 is a plan view of a web of packing laminate in accordance with the invention, FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the packing laminate in FIG. 1 along the line II--II, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a packing container which has been manufactured from a packing laminate according to FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a schematic view of a printing method, known in itself, for the decoration of a packing laminate in accordance with the invention. In FIG. 1 is thus shown a part of a web 1 of continuous container blanks L for the manufacture of filled, closed packing containers of the type which are manufactured in a packing machine through folding and sealing of the longitudinal edges of the web to form a tube which is filled with the desired contents, and subsequently is divided into individual, closed packing containers through repeated transverse sealing and cutting in the transversely sealed region. Such a known packing container is shown in FIG. 3, with the general reference designation 2, which is generally known under the name Tetra Brik (registered trade-mark). To facilitate the conversion of the packing material 1 to packing containers 2 of the parallelepipedic shape shown the packing material 1 may be provided with a number of longitudinally extending folding lines 3 (or so-called crease lines) and a corresponding number of transversely extending folding lines 4,4' intended for facilitating the formation of the bottom and top closure respectively of the container. The packing material 1 may be made up of several layers laminated to one another whose number and composition may vary depending on the type of contents which are to be packed. In the example shown here it is assumed that the packing material 1 is intended for the manufacture of packing containers for the filling of liquid contents, e.g. milk, and comprises, therefore, in analogy to known packing material an inner base layer 5 of rigid fibrous material, e.g. paper or cardboard with outer layers 6 and 7 respectively of liquid-tight material, e.g. plastics such as polyethylene, (FIG. 2). The packing material 1, furthermore, comprises an outer color layer of the type which is applied in a previously determined pattern and which is hardened or dried through electron irradiation with the object of creating a permanent identification symbol or decoration on the finished container 2, as mentioned previously. EB-hardenable (electron beam) printing ink compositions are known to those versed in the art and, therefore, need hardly be described more closely here, but such applicable ink compositions typically contain monomers and/or oligomers of the type which undergo a practically instantaneous "drying" (hardening) on exposure to electron irradiation of sufficient strength, e.g. up to 10Mrad. A typical practical irradiation dose may be 3Mrad. In accordance with conventional techniques, the color layer 8 is applied to the packing material usually by so-called offset-printing using the arrangement shown schematically in FIG. 4. The packing material 1 to this end is wound off a roll 9 and is passed through the nip between two rollers 10 and 11 rotating closely to each other, whereof one roller 10 transfers printing ink on its surface from an ink bath (not shown) to one side of the packing material 1, while the second roller 11 serves as a counter-pressure roller. Owing to the surface of the roller 10 being provided with surface portions arranged in the desired pattern of alternatingly ink-receptive and ink-repelling character respectively, it becomes possible thereby reproducibly to transfer the surface pattern, thus inked on the surface of the roller 10 onto the one side of the packing material 1 passing by. Subsequently the packing material 1 is conducted further past a radiation source 12 which emits electron beams of the desired intensity (e.g. 3Mrad) in the direction of the color-coated side of the packing material 1, as a result of which a practically instantaneous hardening of the printing ink composition applied is achieved to form a permanent color pattern. Finally the packing material 1 is wound up on a roll 13 for further transport and feed into a packing machine for the manufacture of packing containers 2. As mentioned earlier, the printing method described, when applied to packing material of conventional type, has been subject to certain disadvantages which are assumed to be due to material so irradiated undergoing structural changes, especially the inner fibrous base layer, through the effect of penetrating electrons and which, among other things, leads to the quality characteristics of the packing material being impaired. In particular it has been found that the sensitivity to moisture of the packing material had increased, which signified that the packing material after such an irradiation treatment possessed a higher moisture absorption than before the treatment and this considerably impaired the usability of the packing material for the manufacture of packing containers for liquid contents. In accordance with the present invention, however, it has been found that this inconvenience of the known technique can be eliminated in a simple manner by providing the packing material with a further layer 14 (FIG. 2) located between the inner fibrous base layer 5 and the outer liquid-tight layer 7 onto which the color layer 8 is to be applied. To this end, the layer 14 is to be constituted of a material capable of absorbing electrons for the hardening of the color composition applied directed toward the color-carrying plastic layer 7, and in accordance with the invention such a material layer may consist of a mixture of binder and pigment. As examples of binders may be mentioned styrene-butadiene polymers, polyvinyl acrylate, polyvinyl acetate and starch, each by itself or in combination with one another, while the pigment may be constituted of kaolin (china clay), calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide, each by itself or in suitable mutual combinations. A suitable mixture of this kind may be, for example, an aqueous dispersion of 12% binder containing styrene-butadiene polymer, polyvinyl acetate and starch and 76% pigment containing china clay, titanium dioxide and calcium carbonate. The thickness of the layer 14 used shall be sufficient to absorb electron beams of a density of up to 10Mrad, normally used in hardening EB-hardenable printing ink compositions, and in accordance with the invention it has been found that layer thicknesses of over 5 g/m2, such as preferably between 10 and 30 g/m2, satisfactorily meet this requirement. A packing material 1 in accordance with the invention of the type as illustrated in FIG. 2 may be manufactured, for example, in that a web of fibrous material, e.g. paper, provided with folding lines 3, 4, 4', has an aqueous dispersion of binder and pigment of the type mentioned here applied to one side in a quantity corresponding to a dry weight of over 5 g/m2, e.g. 10-30 g/m2, and is coated subsequently on both sides with extruded plastic films to form the liquid-tight layers 6 and 7. The procedure followed for application of the color decoration 8 is in accordance with the method described above with reference to FIG. 4. In a practical test a packing laminate in accordance with the present invention was compared with corresponding known packing laminates to find out the effect on properties of the hardening through electron irradiation in the manner as described above. As a reference property the so-called edge imbibition (g/m.h.) of the respective laminate before and after the said irradiation was chosen. The reference solution consisted of 1 percent lactic acid of 23° C. wherein cut up slices of the laminate in a quantity corresponding to 1 meter laminate edge length were kept submerged, wherefter the weight increase (quantity of liquid imbibed) was determined and compared with the corresponding weight increase which was obtained with the same quantity of slices cut from non-irradiated laminate. The packing laminate in this test in all cases contained cardboard of Duplex quality, the laminate in the first case being without a protective layer, in the second case containing pigment and in the third case being provided with a protective layer, 15 g/m2, in accordance with the invention. The results of the test are presented in the following Table: ______________________________________ Edge imbibition g/m.h.Cardboard quality before after______________________________________Duplex 0.33 0.49Duplex (with pihgment) 0.11 0.45Duplex (layer according to invention) 0.15 0.15______________________________________ It is evident from the Table that the liquid absorption of the two known packing materials increased strongly after electron irradiation, while the liquid absorption of the packing material in accordance with the invention was wholly unaffected. While this invention has been illustrated and described in accordance with a preferred embodiment, it is recognized that variations and changes may be made and equivalents employed herein without departing from the invention as set forth in the claims.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: Absolutely hilariousIn full: I must admit though, the best bit about the race was going home on the train dressed as santa and watching the open mouthed shock and awe of the children that saw you.A very nice, fun race. A good mixture of speedy people on a totally flat course and others just along to walk around and raise some money for charity. I saw kids doing it and even a brave lady hopping it on crutches. From the moment I saw my first runner dressed as Santa at Battersea Park train station until I got home I was grinning all day. Good organisation, friendly marshalls, lovely medal and water and milkshakes at the finish. I will definitely be doing this one again next year.Date of review: December 10, 2007

I know. I posted about this yesterday but you never let a good topic go.
Here was my prediction about the upcoming Superman movie, "Man of Steel," two weeks ago:
...the new trailer reinforces the notion: In the new Superman movie, Krypton, Kal-El's homeworld, lives. It doesn't blow up.
I gave evidence from various sources, including the trailers, particularly the "Zod message" trailer, in which Zod (Michael Shannon) requests that the people of Earth "return [Superman] to my custody." My thought was always: return to ... where? Where is Zod? Where does he expect to go with Kal-El? Where if not ... back to Krypton?
That was my assumption but no one bought into it. It was like I was Jor-El, but reversed. Jor-El warned the Kryptonian Science Council that Krypton was about to explode and they all laughed at him. I was Erik-El, telling the Earth Science-Fiction Council that Krypton was not about to explode, and no one could see the logic. Here's my friend Tim—now Timonian Elder #2:
Timonian Elder #2: ... it does make Superman remaining on Earth a question if/when he finds out there's still a planet back home. I think it'd be a bit much to leave that question at the end, but it's an interesting thought.
Here's Myriam, now Mynd-Ah:
Mynd-Ah: I can't wrap my brain around a concept that Krypton still exists. It's possible there was a battle taking place as the planet was dying from within. Because if Krypton still existed, why would Superman stay on Earth all the time? He'd want to go "home" to his people, right?
Superman fan Oliver Willis assumed a different end to Krypton but an end nonetheless:
@eriklundegaard i think theyre going with the version in which krypton was attacked/destroyed by braniac
— Oliver Willis (@owillis) April 17, 2013
Even the Superman Homepage shrugged:
@eriklundegaard I think it blows up. I don't know for sure, but I guess we'll find out in just under 2 months.
— Superman Homepage (@SupermanHomepge) April 17, 2013
And now? In Entertainment Weekly? The truth is revealed:
In this iteration, Clark Kent's heroic tendencies would rise to the surface only when the threat was great enough. It would have to be a global menace — one that might also trigger an internal conflict about whether he belongs on Earth even as he yearns to be among his own kind. That's what pits him against General Zod (Boardwalk Empire's Michael Shannon), a Kryptonian tyrant who wants Clark to join him back on Krypton, which would mean abandoning his post as defender of the weaklings of Earth.
I should add that there's one more possibility, which Timonian Elder #2 mentioned in the comments field yesterday.
That does change the Superman concept rather significantly. I wonder if it will make sense. I also wonder if my theory, that Zod simply doesn't know Krypton is dust, is still possible.
That would explain Zod's message. But it wouldn't explain why there's no Kryptonite.
There's also this possibility via Mr. Willis' theory above: Krypton was attacked by Brainiac, and most of the people died, and Zod is interested in gathering the remaining Kryptonians to restart the planet, which is now desolate but still exists.

Shit, I hate when Erik-El is right.
I like TE#2's theory of Zod not realizing Krypton is gone. Maybe he was exiled before the planet blew. I'm going to hold onto this one.
Glow Stick Jor-El (Brando) is the standard. Let's see if Russell Crowe can do him justice. They've obviously thrown out the like-father-like-son hairstyles, along with the spit curl (which I never really liked anyway).
This May-November set of superhero, armageddon, action movies makes me SO happy.

Server error...
by 11314997 - 2/27/09 1:07 PM
Using dial-up, some large files must be downloaded in sessions. As my download manager will resume, most files will pick up where they left off from the last session.
Downloading a 56MB file from Microsoft, on the second session - (since the file was large and had to be addressed from the first session), the server sent this message;
"File size on server has changed. Download from the beginning"
As this situation is time consuming on dial-up, has anyone had this done to them and is there a solution? I am surprised that a Microsoft server would (change the file size - why???). My understanding of files on servers are for the most part, 'static'.
I probably show a lack of knowledge here, so any input or advice appreciated. Thanks all...
Best regards,
