Los Angeles, CA's The Jealous Sound have posted the title track off of their upcoming full length, Got Friends. The band has cleverly claimed that a group of terrorists named Gel Is Sound have taken the song hostage and posted it on their virb page.

I got my first Hot Water Music album, No Division, yesterday. At first I was kind meh on it, so I decided to listen again, to see what the Orgers are on about.

I thought it was an ep, but I'd be much happier if it were a full length. These guys totally rule.
Go-Jimmy (August 30, 2008)
Good band, good song. I found myself singing along with the chorus by the end of the first listen. That's the mark of a good pop song. |

Missoula Men Survive Small Plane Crash – State Headlines [YouTube]
Two Missoula men in their 70's survived a small plane crash on Tuesday, and are resting at home in Missoula.
Two Missoula men in their 70's survived a small plane crash on Tuesday, and are resting at home in Missoula.
75 year-old Bob Brunson told KGVO News on Thursday that 'he was lucky to be on this side of the grass', after he and a friend were in a small plane crash on Tuesday.
The National Transportation Safety Board has released its report of a fatal plane crash in December near Flathead Lake that killed the pilot and critically injured a passenger.
Just after 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday, a small plane with two people aboard reportedly crashed in a hilly area near Ronan.
The remnants of a major Pacific storm rolled through Western Montana last night leaving snow on the ground and frigid wind-chill temperatures through mid-week.

Sand berm goes up at Santa Barbara Harbor and Leadbetter Beach
City prepares for winter storms
POSTED: 12:12 PM PST Dec 24, 2013
UPDATED: 07:01 PM PST Nov 06, 2013
Heavy equipment has been working all day at Leadbetter Beach and the Santa Barbara Harbor area to build a sand berm as a form of protection against winter storms.
The wall of sand has been built up in front of the Yacht Club, and nearby parking lot.
This work is done annually by the city.
Other areas, including Carpinteria will also build a sand berm in the weeks ahead near the city beach and waterfront homes.
During several past storms, heavy waves at high tides have gone past the beach into the parking lot and business area at the harbor.

This novel approach is being taken by Sterigenics International, which claims to be the world's largest provider of contract radiation services, with 17 plants in North America and three in Europe and Asia. After several years of processing pellets for individual customers, Sterigenics came out with its Raprex brand of HDPE and LLDPE pellets in 2004.
According to Lew is A. Parks, v.p. of Sterigenics Advanced Applications, the company initially thought pro cessors would buy PE resins and send them for toll processing by Sterigenics for around 5¢ to 25¢/lb. But processors showed more enthusiasm for buying pretreated pellets that came with datasheets of specified properties.
Demand has taken off so successfully, says Raprex product manager George Forczek, that Sterigenics is expanding its capacity to handle larger orders. The company has dedicated a facility for irradiating pellets at Gaithersburg, Md. Available to begin processing in the first half of this year, it will accommodate truckload orders initially and railcar quantities later on. Throughput rates will be up to 20,000 lb/hr. Forczek envisions multi-million-pound annual sales of Raprex within the next few years. Beyond polyolefins, other radiation-modified thermoplastics are in development.
What radiation provides
Sterigenics uses gamma and electron-beam (EB) radiation to modify polyethylene. According to Parks, the "recipe" for Raprex products includes selecting the proper PE base resin (with special attention to additives), choosing the type and dosage of radiation, and compounding stabilizers and other additives after radiation. Radiation treatment provides three effects:
- Increased chain branching and broader molecular-weight distribution.
- Oxidation, which adds polar end groups to the base polymer.
- A low degree of crosslinking, which does not harm recyclability.
These radiation effects produce three main benefits: First, processability is enhanced because viscosity is increased at lower shear rates. That means greater melt strength (handy for extrusion) without greater flow resistance (good for molding).
Second, polar end groups provide better adhesion to metal for pipe coating and to fillers like wood flour.
Third, a variety of benefits derive from improved end-use properties such as mechanical strength, toughness, wear resistance, ESCR, HDT, flame resistance, and heat-sealability.
Sterigenics offers three grades for injection molding and extrusion:Third, a variety of benefits derive from improved end-use properties such as mechanical strength, toughness, wear resistance, ESCR, HDT, flame resistance, and heat-sealability.
- Raprex 100 extrusion-grade HDPE is aimed particularly at water and pressure pipe, as well as profiles. It boasts higher stiffness, burst and hoop strengths, and ESCR.
- Raprex 200 HDPE for injection molding has better strength, toughness, heat resistance, and flame resistance.
- Raprex 300 LLDPE for blown film has higher tear and puncture strengths. It is aimed at mono- and multi-layer greenhouse film, geomembranes, and industrial liners or covers.
Other service providers
Probably the oldest and best-known U.S. name in radiation modification of plastics is E-Beam Services, formerly the radiation processing unit of Monsanto. The company has three facilities in New Jersey, Ohio, and Indiana. John Messick, national sales manager, says the firm processes millions of pounds per year of pellets on a toll basis for resin producers and a couple of processors that mold filter elements. E-Beam also treats finished products such as gaskets, pipe, tubing, or sheet. He says upgrading heat resistance is the most common goal sought from radiation modification.
A large supplier of contract sterilization, with at least a dozen radiation-processing facilities, is Steris Isomedix Services. At its EB facility in Libertyville, Ill., the firm modifies plastic pellets and parts (wire, cable, and tubing). EB sales application specialist Chad Rhodes says Steris provides toll treatment of HDPE, LDPE, and EVA pellets for resin companies and a few end users.

Dear Sir:
I have got a waggon made, have purchased four good Horses and expected to have sent them off yesterday, but when I went to examine the powder in the Magazine I found to my surprise there was none but cannon powder, and that very coarse and ordinary, not fit for musketry. Knowing the greatest part that is wanted for our province ought to be good musket powder I thought it best to detain the waggon till such could be obtained. Seven Tons of such I hear is in a Vessel below and will be up as soon as the Ice will suffer anything to pass. I hope in a few days to get the waggon away. The Horses come pretty high, two of them £50 each, the other two £35 each. They are all Bays and young.
Our friend Hooper has taken an opportunity when he could be best spared from Congress to fly to the Camp at Cambridge to see his Mother, who has lately got out of Boston, he has been gone about Ten days and will return as soon as possible; he desired me to put his name to any Letters we should write to the provincial Council, I believe he would not wish they should know he was absent. Late last night I received a Letter from him dated at New York the 6th; he seems greatly alarmed at the intelligence he had received there and urged very pressingly the necessity of sending off an express to you. The substance of the information he gave, and what has been received from thence since he left it you will find in our Letter to the Counc 1 which you have herewith. The anxiety of my worthy friend for the safety, honour & happiness of our province and for his dearest connections there I imagine has induced him to paint things in the strongest colours to me; however, I wish there may not be too much truth in his suggestions. All accounts from England seem to agree that we shall have a dreadfull storm bursting on our heads thro' all America in the Spring. We must not shrink from it; we ought not to shew any simptoms of fear; the nearer it approaches and the greater the sound the more fortitude and calm, steady firmness we ought to possess. If we mean to defend our liberties, our dearest rights and privileges against the power of Britain to the last extremity, we ought to bring ourselves to such a temper of mind as to stand unmoved at the bursting of an Earthquake. Altho the storm thickens I feel myself quite composed. I have furnished myself with a good musket & Bayonet, and when I can no longer be usefull in Council I hope I shall be willing to take the field. I think I had rather fall there than be carried off by a lingering illness. In this I am pretty much of the same opinion of the French General, who, confined a long time by sickness to his bed, on hearing the Duke of Brunswick was killed by a cannon Ball, exclaimed, "Great God, how unfortunate I am; Brunswick was always a lucky fellow."
I mentioned to you some time ago that a Vessel was arrived here with near Sixty tons of Saltpetre on board and that several quantities of powder had been brought in, a few days since another Vessel arrived in this River and is now kept below by the Ice. She has sixty Tons of Saltpetre, 13 Tons of powder and 1,300 Muskets on board, those supplies appear considerable and yet we find by experience
they are quite trifling when compared with our demands, Powder Mills are scarce, the manufacturing goes on very slow, and powder wastes exceedingly in a large army even where little is fired away. Soldiers are careless, their Cartouch boxes get wet, and much is lost in dealing it out in small parcels, notwithstanding all our supplies we now find both powder & arms greatly wanted at our Camp at Cambrige, by our army in Canada, by the troops in New York; in this Province, Maryland and Virginia, applications are made every day to Congress for powder and arms, give us powder or we perish is the language from all quarters, it is astonishing to think what pains the British Court has been at to prevent every Nation in Europe from supplying us with these articles, several persons who have lately come from France, Spain, Portugal and Holland say, every Port, every Town and almost every public house has Spies from England to watch the Motions of the Merchants, so that scarcely anything can be brought away even by a Circuitous Voyage, but they find it out,—by the ingenuity of some dutch and French Smugglers a little is sometimes brought away. Americans ought to be more industrious in making those articles at home, every Family should make saltpetre, every Province have powder Mills and every body encourage the making of Arms,It is hinted in the papers that persons will be sent from England to Negotiate with the Colonies, many people do not believe it, those who do have but little expectation from it, they are to treat under the influence of a mighty Fleet & Army, what are we to expect from the mouth of a Cannon or the point of a Bayonet, see Lord Norths motion in the House of Commons the 20th of November, what have we to expect from parliament?
You desire to know when the additional pay of the officers commenced; it was on the 4th of November last. How I neglected to mention it before I know not.
The only pamphlet that has been published here for a long time I now send you; it is a Curiosity; we have not put up any to go by the Waggon, not knowing how you might relish independency. The author is not known; some say Doctor Franklin had a hand in it, he denies it.
General Lee in a Letter to Congress received yesterday says he expects a large number of British Troops will be sent to New York as early as possible, he intends to Fortify the City in the best manner he can, calls for more Troops, and wishes to have a Battalion of
the Philadelphia Militia that they might be instructed in village fortification, camp duty, &c., &c. His desire was immediately made known to the City, the Colonels of the four Battalions instantly applied to Congress for the command of the detachment should one be sent. The Pennsylvania Farmer Mr Dickinson, being the eldest Colonel, insisted on his right to command, and is to have it. The four Battalions were this day drawn out when it was proposed that two companies from each should turn out for that service so as to make a compleat battalion from the whole; they did it with great chearfullness; it was diverting enough to see both officers and men soliciting to be employed in the service; some of the companies will march tomorrow, today I might have said for the watchmen are this moment crying past one o'Clock, the express calls on me at eight, Hooper being gone and Penn not very well I am obliged to write all. I intended to have wrote to Mr Iredell and Mr Jones, am much fatigued and cannot do it, excuse me to them, they have my best wishes. May the grand dispenser of all good give health and happiness to you and all your dearest connections and protect you and them from all calamity is the ardent wish of

I went to work on the 27th and was working from 12:15 noon until 6pm. Around 2pm I started getting nauseated and noticed some menstrual cramp feelings. One of my coworkers/besties who was due 6 days after me made a joke that maybe I was in labor and we laughed all day about it since we were both having contractions. Slowly over the rest of my shift they got stronger and when I left for work they felt somewhat steady.
I got home and started timing them. 5-6 mins apart. Okay- No big deal. We did this 2 days ago and the ctx stopped. Let's just see where this goes and not get our hopes up in the meantime. So we continue and they are getting progressively uncomfortable. Nothing that was unmanageable, but it def felt like stronger menstrual cramps. Tony's best friend, Kyle, came over and we were just hanging out for a couple of hours. Towards the end of his visit Tony went ahead and called the midwives to see what they thought. (from this point on let's refer to them as M [midwife] and A [assistant midwife]). They both told me to get some rest and to call if anything changed. So around 10pm I went to bed after they slowed down a bit (7-8mins apart). Kyle left and Tony went to work shortly before 11pm.
I wake up and it's 11:30. I can't sleep through these. It's really uncomfortable. I'm rocking through them and timing them. 3-4mins apart. I take a bath which seems to relax me and go back to bed around 12:30 midnight. I wake up again around 2am, piddle around on the computer for about 30mins, drink some water, and go back to bed. Wake up again at 4:30. OMG... I just can't sleep. What little sleep I AM getting between these contractions is very short and interrupted. For every 2hrs of sleep, I got maybe 30-45mins of actual rest. Another bath and I lie back down. Back to sleep and the alarm goes off at 6:45am.
I get up, get Christopher ready, Tony takes him to school, and I call M. I tell M that I just can't sleep and that these ctx won't go away. M is concerned that my lack of sleep is stopping things from progressing. She tells me to take some benedryl or valerian root to help me sleep and just rest. My mom agrees to take Katherine after M tells me that I NEED to get someone to take her or I won't get rested up enough. I'm frustrated. I don't know if she's taking me seriously or not or if I'm just being silly. I'm tired and emotional. It's been 17 hours at this point and I just want to SLEEP. I started crying. Tony gets me something to help me sleep and I go lie down around 9am. Tony comes to bed about 10am and we both sleep.
I'm up again at 10:30am. Something has changed. I'm moaning through these. I can't stay quiet. Each peak brings a soft "Ooh" from my lips. I struggle through them for about 15-20mins and then come to the living room so I don't wake Tony up. I'm on the couch sleeping in between the ctx, which are about 4-5mins apart. Just as I dose off, another one hits me and I'm writhing, rocking, moaning. I call M again. "I'm moaning through these. I can't get comfortable. Something is different." We had a prenatal appt for 1pm that day but canceled it for sleep and she went ahead and said she'd come over. She calls A and they both come on over. Waiting for them, I'm yet again sleeping through the ctx, getting what little sleep I can.
M walks in the door 15 minutes after 1. Just moments after she walks in another ctx hits- "OOOOH!" I moan. She tells me that I'm sounding beautiful and that it looks good. She watches me through a few and times them. After about 30mins or so, I agree to a palpation and vaginal exam to get an idea of a what's going on. She knows I wanted a hands off labor, but with my lack of sleep we feel okay with going ahead. She tells me he's in a good position and then she checks me (1st exam in my pregnancy). I'm 2cm and about 30-40% effaced. She can't feel suture lines to see how his head is positioned on the cervix. 23hrs into labor and I'm 2cm. *sigh of slight disappointment* I remind myself that it's okay. But I can't help but be discouraged. A shows up and they talk for a minute. We're going to try some knee/chest for 20mins to get him off my cervix and then try to reposition him with 20mins of squatting. OWW- Knee/chest and these ctx are REALLY uncomfortable.
We wake Tony up shortly after 2pm so he can get the heating pad for my back. He's tired after only 4hrs of sleep. He helps hold the heating pad on my lower back, providing wonderful counterpressure, while I'm squatting on the birth ball. My 20mins is almost up so he gets me something to eat. I'm still singing my birth song through every contraction. Loud "OOOHs" permeate the room. This makes eating my bowl of cereal very interesting as I'm rocking through each contraction and moaning loudly. He turns on soft new age music that is very relaxing hoping that it will help- it does. It's so soothing. I get off the ball and onto the couch.
It's time to go get Christopher from school so Tony leaves to do that and decides to go get Katherine and my mom and bring them back as well. During this time, the MW's turn the lights down low and leave me alone to do my thing. I start to sleep through the ctx once again- what little I can. My moans get louder. They become more primal. I agree to one more check, although a little hesitant. They tell me that I can decline, but I tell them to go ahead. I need something more than 2cm. Anything. I'm 3cm and 70-80% effaced. It's something. But I'm just tired. I just want to rest. I just want to hold Matthew. It's been 26hrs.
M & A think that the introduction of the kids and my mom might change the atmosphere. As I'm making the call to try and hold them off, they pull up. Katherine's asleep so we they lie her down in her bed. Christopher hears my moaning about 2mins after he walks in and my mom takes him to his room to talk to him about what's going on. He's excited. The moan scared him at first, but my mom and Tony told him that that's what all mommas do when they have babies and it was okay. Now he comes up to me, hold my hand, and tells me hi. I can see from the smile on his face that he's okay and that makes me feel better that I'm not scaring him. He hangs out with my mom in his room and they do his homework.
I decide to go off into my bedroom. The pool is waiting, but unfilled. I pile pillows on the bed and try to lie down to see if I can rest. Nope. Not happening. So instead, I squat over the side of the bed with pillows supporting my upper body as I sway my hips and squat deeper down during ctx, moaning loudly into the pillow. I want the pool. I'm afraid to get in too early, but I want the pool. I NEED the pool. Things are getting pretty intense and I can't relax well enough. Tony starts to fill in while boiling more water on the stove. It's 5pm and M & A decide to go get something to eat since I'm only 3cm. They tell Tony to call if anything changes and they leave.
The pool is finally ready. I step in and the warmth feels sooo good. The ctx slow down, but I don't care. For about 10 minutes I get some rest. Not completely, but I have about 2 ctx where my moans are quieter, where it's a little less overpowering.
I'm leaning over the side of the tub and suddenly a ctx comes on that took me by surprise. I get loud. Really loud. Something is different, but I can't place what it is. Another one hits. I scream. My moan turns high pitched and Tony comes in there. I tell him that I'm feeling it more. Another one comes on. I scream again. I hear Christopher in the background and he starts crying. My mom takes him outside and I can hear her saying "It's okay." I have a weak ctx and no noise comes through my mouth. The next one comes and it's like it took all the intensity from the previous contraction and doubled it into this one. I scream louder than before, making my throat hurt. I ask for a cough drop to help soothe my throat. He goes off, brings me one back, and then I can hear him dialing numbers on the phone. While he's gone I feel pressure after the next ctx. It confused me. I had been feeling downward pressure for hours at this point, but this was different. I ignored it. The next ctx brought on the same sensation... I was involuntarily bearing down but I was still confused. I reach down out of curiosity but can't feel anything- I think it's all in my head. No way could I be pushing. I was JUST 3cm.
Tony came back in and told me that the MW's were coming back and should be here soon. Next thing I know, I'm pushing down on the side of the pool with all my strength, lifting my body up out of the water while keeping my pelvis in the water, and throwing my head back as I ROAR. I spilled some water over the side with the downward force I put on the pool so Tony told me to use him instead. I pushed again and screamed out "HE'S COMING!" Tony keeps encouraging me, telling me to do what feels best. I leaned down and bit into his shoulder, yelling out as I felt Matthew's head come down. I kept instinctually lifting my body up and roaring him down. My mom comes in with Christopher and I hear the MW's walk into the room. I feel this intensity and yell out "There's his head!" M grabbed the flashlight to look and I roared out once more and his head came out all the way. It felt so amazing and I cried out "His head! Oh my god, that feels great!" I stopped for a minute, my body giving me a small break. They mentioned that he was still in the caul. I angled my pelvis forward, trying to see and started to reach down when another contraction came. I wanted to catch him but my body didn't like the angle I was at. I reached up for Tony only to find that he had hopped in the pool behind me. I bore down on the side of the pool, once again lifting my body up and angled to the back.
SWEET RELIEF! His body shot out and Tony grabbed him as the water sac broke open and he lifted him out of the water. M & A stood there watching, letting us do everything, never once touching any of us. My mom was in the corner by the pool crying and Christopher was in her arms with a huge smile on his face. He cried as Tony held him in his arms.
Matthew Evan was here. After 28 long and intense hours, he was here- born into Daddy's arms at 6:08pm on Sept 28th.
I turned around, finally sitting and carefully avoiding the cord. Once I sat down and got comfortable, Tony handed him to me. There was nothing but silence and the sweet sounds of his voice & joyful crying. Katherine somehow slept through it all so my mom went and got her and we introduced her to Matthew. She was confused at first, not knowing what had happened, but soon got excited and was trying to hop in the pool and love on "Baby Maffew." We finally got the camera- OOPS! That's why I have no pictures of the actual birth- everything just went too fast! 3cm to 10cm in just over an hour.
We sat in that pool a good hour, just enjoying everything. No rush. He pinked up right away, was nursing, and we looked great. After that hour we decided to try and get the placenta out, thinking the counter pressure from the water might be delaying it. The cord had long since quit pulsating and was limp & white. So we clamped it off and Tony cut the cord. Nothing there- Matthew had gotten everything he needed. Tony takes him into the living room. I get up and deliver it and we all check it to make sure it was whole. Matthew wants to nurse again so Tony brings him back to me and we just relax in the bed while A gets my herbal bath ready. We decide to do the newborn exam... 2 hours after the birth, lol. The MW's are happy to finally get to hold him. He's perfect. And we're all shocked when he's weighed and comes out to 7lbs & 13oz. He looks sooo tiny and was all swore he was smaller than Christopher, who was 7lbs & 9oz. Nope- just had a MUCH smaller head than his sister's whopping 15cm head, making him look tiny in comparison. They check me now and I was pleasantly surprised to find that I had not a single tear, skidmark, stress point, OR hemorrhoid! Not one! I have a super vagina! In fact, M told me it was beautiful, he he. I take my herbal bath and get cleaned up. I'm feeling fabulous. Tired but fabulous. M & A leave, giving me instructions on how to take care of myself and what to look out for. The kids go to bed and I come in here to announce Matthew's birth to everyone since family had been notified. We just hang out and bask in the glory of what had just happened a few hours before, all of us in amazement. My mom's about to go home so I go lie down in bed, snuggling with this perfect little person. Everyone leaves and I fall asleep, holding my beatiful new baby boy in my arms.
Happy Birthday, Matthew. Welcome.

White Girls Be Trippin: A Supercut of Girls Falling in Horror Movies
No genre inspires as many cliches, both beloved and hated, as horror. Put on any random slasher movie while a horror buff is in the room and chances are strong that he'll be able to map out every moment, and every poor decision on the part of the main characters, a half hour in advance. However, that horror buff will also tell you that the predictability of it all can be a lot of fun.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'RoboCop' Gets Taken Down by 'The LEGO Movie' and 'About Last Night'
When 'RoboCop' got pushed from an August 2013 release date to February 2014, everyone assumed it would open stronger when far away from the busy summer months. If this is the better of the two options, then we can't even imagine how poorly it would have opened in the warmer months. The remake of the 1987 classic is definitely not a disaster, but it most certainly underperformed.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Wolf of Wall Street,' 'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty' and More Battle It Out
Although you'd think people would spend the holidays in their homes catching up with their families and what-not, they actually tend to go to the movies after opening gifts and having awkward conversations. And Christmas Day moviegoers had a bunch of options this week, with recent releases (and not-so-recent releases) still going strong and a whole bunch of new releases arriving to coincide with the holiday.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Gravity' is Out of This World
When a movie is sold as being the next incredible cinematic experience that will change the way we watch movies, expectations are huge. Audiences may scoff. It could all backfire. But Alfonso Cuaron's 'Gravity' lived up to the hype and audiences responded in kind, giving it the biggest opening ever for a non-sequel October release.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2′ Forecasts Big Opening Weekend
There's nothing like a family-friendly animated movie to help shake off the September doldrums and 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2' performed as expected. Although Sony's big release effortlessly took the number one spot, this weekend had a few other bright spots, namely a handful of independent films doing quite well in more limited release.
Here's How You Can Be in 'Fast and Furious 7′
Dangerous car chases through heavily populated urban environments has always been a cornerstone of the wonderfully ludicrous 'Fast and Furious' series and the latest film is certainly not going to be an exception. Filming is currently underway on 'Fast and Furious 7' and the production is looking for some fans to fill out some key scenes.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Insidious Chapter 2′ Has a Terrifyingly Huge Opening
James Wan has done it again. For the second time this year, a horror film that he's directed has opened to over $40 million, securing his position as the reigning king of mainstream horror cinema. He may be taking a break from the genre to direct 'Fast and Furious 7,' but after the jaw-dropping success of 'The Conjuring' and now 'Insidious Chapter 2,' you just know he'll be back. No one is bringing the audiences in quite like Wan.
Oh, and there were some other movies that made some money, too.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Riddick' Wins an Unimpressive Weekend
One of the things 'Riddick' has going for it is that it didn't cost too much. So while its opening weekend may be a little less than impressive, it doesn't have that far to go to make a profit. It's little victories like this that make this, one of the slowest most stagnant movie weekends of the year, more palatable.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'One Direction: This is Us' Takes the Lead
The summer is over and September is upon us. The result? One of the most boring weekend box office reports in months. Months! The month or so following the end of the summer movie season is traditionally one of the worst of the year, the time when Hollywood unleashes all of the films that they have little faith in, a buffer between the blockbuster months and the award season months. In other words, it's the exact kind of climate where a movie like 'One Direction: This is Us' can thrive.
'American Hustle' Pics Reveal Bradley Cooper and Christian Bale's Amazingly Awful Haircuts
We were already excited to see 'American Hustle' because it's the latest film from the always-interesting David O. Russell and because it has one of the strongest ensembles in recent memory. But now, with the release of two new images, we're really excited to see it because it apparently pulls no punches when it comes to completely '80s-ifying stars Christian Bale, Amy Adams and Bradley Cooper. They look ludicrous...and also kind of awesome.

Electricity consumption and economic growth empirical evidence from Pakistan
Shahbaz, Muhammad and Feridun, Mete (2012) Electricity consumption and economic growth empirical evidence from Pakistan. Quality & Quantity, 46 (5). pp. 1583-1599. ISSN 0033-5177 (print), 1573-7845 (Online) (doi:10.1007/s11135-011-9468-3)
PDF - Published Version Restricted to Repository staff only Download (464kB) |
The present article uses the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing procedure to identify the long run equilibrium relationship between electricity consumption
and economic growth. Toda-Yamamoto and Wald-test causality tests have identified the direction of the causal relationship between these two variables in the case of Pakistan in the period between 1971 and 2008. Ng-Perron and Clement-Montanes-Reyes unit root tests are used to handle the problem of integrating orders for variables. The results suggest that the two variables are in a long run equilibrium relationship and economic growth leads to
electricity consumption and not vice versa.

Taipan September 24, 2011 1:53 PM I hate this track, too many second gear 90 degree bends, crappy kerbs, crappy chicanes, flat as a pancake, not one decent corner to speak of. It reminds me of a giant, characterless indoor kart track. The only good thing I can say about it is that it's not Valencia! Reply Report abuse 4 agree 0 disagree
Matt - Unregistered September 24, 2011 2:08 PM For once Taipan I actually agree with you !I'm happy Webber got quickest but I seen Seb get held up on his last 2 laps and would of gone quicker. I hope Mark can at least get on the front row. 0 agree 0 disagree

For the First Time in Israel - Verdi's Ernani |
The Israeli Opera Presents
The Israeli Opera presents the first performances in Israel of Verdi's Ernani, the composer's early success and the opera that put him at the centre of the Italian opera map. Polish director Michal Znaniecki directs this production in a grand classical style featuring leading international Verdi opera singers. Ernani is no doubt one of the finest examples of the early Verdi style, the style that follows the bel canto tradition of Bellini, Rossini and Donizetti, yet which presents them in a new light. It features all the musical and dramatic ingredients that will later bloom in Verdi's more mature works. Set in 16th century Spain, Ernani focuses on a lover quadruple in which three men yearn for the love of one lady. But it is a romantic opera that deals first and foremost with the concepts of honor, protection and hospitality side by side with the ongoing battle in Spain between the king and his followers and those who oppose him. It follows the lady Elvira who is in love with the outlaw bandit Ernani yet has to wed the old noble Silva while the King, Don Carlo, is doing everything in his power to win her as his queen. Ernani is based on the play Hernani by Victor Hugo (1882-1885), one of the most important romantic French playwrights whose works have become the source for many operas including Verdi's own Rigoletto. Director Znaniecki explains that "all four characters in this opera are associated, and create together an odd net of mutual dependences, which is extremely fascinating for me. That's why I placed my characters on the stage, in that strange sort of way. Even if they don't sing, they observe one another, control their feelings, love and rejection. Silva, the noble count turns into a man obsessively blinded by revenge. Ernani gives up again, and again, and is ready to die in the name of love all the time and Elvira, who is torn between a will of being an active, and/or a passive woman. However, the most interesting character for today's spectator is in my opinion Don Carlo, a King who becomes a Caesar. He is a vulgar, young, vivid man, who turns into a mature leader and resigns from his own happiness in the name of his national duties. He has also a new desire – to gain a place in history. Don Carlo's aria about his previous life and need to change is the most beautiful part of this opera at all. " Also performing in the cast are American tenor Hugh Smith (Ernani), Italian baritone Vitorio Vitelli (Don Carlo), Georgian bass Ramaz Chikviladze (Silva) and Israeli soprano Mirela Gradinaru (Elvira). |

The borg had the fusion cube in armada II. Species 8472 used 9 or 10 bioships to create their planet killer weapon, and the suliban used their cell ships to make the helix and the MVAM kind of works in reverse.
so it would not be totally unprecedented but i think it would have to belong to a alien race we had not seen before to create the sort of thing you are thinking of. i cant imagine fed or klingons using such tech. i could imagine say the xindi insectoids using it like insects come together to create a colony or hive.

A better solution would have been to set your encoding as the exception suggests.
[announcer] mime_encoding = 'base64'
Read the description of the option:
mime_encoding = Option('announcer', 'mime_encoding', 'base64', """Specifies the MIME encoding scheme for emails. Valid options are 'base64' for Base64 encoding, 'qp' for Quoted-Printable, and 'none' for no encoding. Note that the no encoding means that non-ASCII characters in text are going to cause problems with notifications (''since 0.10'').""")

I just got hit by this.
I agree that setting the mime_encoding is an easy fix. However, even so, it is still wrong for the plugin to just die with a Python NameError.
The plugin should either fall back to a basic format (like the original attempt to use ascii, which is still broken) or else it should log something educational like, "Set mime_enconding in your [announcer] setting in trac.ini"
Just having a random traceback is not an elegant way to handle this configuration error.
Finally, if you fall back to a default encoding, why not fall back to a default of base64?
comment:5 in reply to: ↑ 4 Changed 5 years ago by anonymous
Replying to anonymous:
Sorry, I forgot to mention in my last comment:
My trac.ini had a default mime_encoding value of none. I didn't put that there... but that is supposed to be a valid selection (as per the docs cited above) so in my opinion this is an actual bug. The plugin is supposed to handle "none" correctly.
I'm still trying to get HTML notifications to work here... but thanks for working on this, a lot of people really want pretty-looking notifications. Not everybody appreciates courier font as much as the Trac developers :)

"Ranjit Singh, a former Indian Army Captain trying to escape a shameful past, lives with his family among the migrant workers of Martha's Vineyard, working as a caretaker of the vacation homes of the rich and powerful. Needing a place to stay, Ranjit moves his family into an empty Senator's home. Happily, but illegally ensconced in the house, he tries to forget his brief affair with Anna, the wife of an African-American senator, and focus on providing for his family. But one night, their idyll is shattered when mysterious armed men break into the house, looking for an antique porcelain doll. Forced to flee, Ranjit is pursued and hunted by unknown forces, and becomes drawn into the Senator's shadowy world. To save his family and solve the mystery of the doll, he must join forces with Anna, who has her own dark secrets. As the past and present collide, Ranjit must finally confront the hidden event that destroyed his Army career and forced him to leave India. Tightly plotted, action-packed, smart and surprisingly moving, The Caretaker takes us from the desperate world of migrant workers to the elite African-American community of Martha's Vineyard, and a secret high-altitude war between India and Pakistan."--

OH: MEtro to Offer Health and Dental Benefits to Employees with Same-Sex Partners
Metro CEO Terry Garcia Crews, Metro Ridership Development Manager Kim Lahman, Cincinnati City Council member Chris Seelbach, Metro Operator Renita Wilson, SORTA Bard Chair Jason Dunn, and Access Operator Tamika Raven-Wilson took part in Metro's announcement to provide same-sex benefits.
Photo credit: Cincinnati Metro
Procter & Gamble, Kroger, Macy's, Fifth Third Bank, GE Aviation, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Dinsmore, LPK, the University of Cincinnati, the city of Cincinnati – many of Greater Cincinnati's major employers offer same-sex and domestic partner benefits.
Beginning Jan. 1, 2015, Metro will join these and other progressive local employers in offering health and dental benefits to employees in same-sex marriages and recognized domestic partner relationships.
The following categories of employees will qualify for this new benefits:
- Same-sex partners with a valid marriage license from states that have legalized same-sex marriage
- Same-sex partners who are registered by a government entity
- Same-sex or different-sex partners with a sworn affidavit demonstrating financial interdependence for the past 12 months
Metro is the first transit system of its size in the state to offer domestic partner benefits.
According to Jason Dunn, chairman of the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority that operates Metro, offering domestic partner benefits makes good business sense.
"Metro is committed to inclusion, and we are committed to attracting and retaining the best employees," Dunn said. "In the changing workplace, it's imperative that all employees and their families have access to equal benefits. Our goal is to be an employer of choice."

Sanderson Green at Sanderson
Why?Sophisticated leisure.
We've all been to the Sanderson. A beacon of style and sophistication in Central London, the Morgans Hotel is a must-stay for anyone with an iota of taste. But we haven't been back in a while -- that was, until last week, when we caught wind that it had turned its courtyard terrace into a summertime pop-up. Never too little, too late for us! Called Sanderson Green, the refurbished space is all laid-back louche with linen suits aplenty, a brand new grill menu and exclusive DJ sets to see us through to the end of the season in style. Which, according to doom-and-gloom weather forecasters, won't be long at all. So go soon, and enjoy the likes of lobster roll and slow-roasted pulled pork sandwich washed down with cocktails such as the Cool Britannia ( breakfast tea, Somerset Cider Brandy, King's Ginger Liqueur and gomme). The hard shakes are no less hedonistic, either. Remember: ain't no sunshine when it's gone.

Renee Textured Leather Bench
Excellent Purchase
This is really a beautiful bench. Purchased to go at the foot of a king size bed and the size is perfect. As others have mentioned, the seat is very firm but this is a definite plus for me. It is used mainly for holding bed covers at night or as a seat for putting on shoes and is a perfect height for comfortable use.
My only negative comment would be that the "ivory" color is more pale beige than a true ivory. It sits on off-white carpet and beside a silky ivory coverlet and would not work if it were even a tiny bit more beige.
Bench arrives fully assembled and extremely well-packed.
January 14, 2015
Color on wedsite not the color of leather on bench
The bench itself is very well made and a good solid bench. Perfect for at the end of a bed.
The color however was so far off from the picture on the website and even from the name " camel". It was almost a burnt orange rather than a shade of tan. Since it was such a large piece of furniture I did not return it. It still is a nice piece, it just does not match the decor in the room it was purchased for. I probably will never buy furniture off the internet or from a catalog again. Lesson learned, sad because there are so many lovely things in Grandinroad.

Very nice, Great value. Be careful unpacking as the legs will scratch easy. Measure your space as it is bigger than you think

Renee Leather Bench
Very pleased with the product and it was shipped very quickly. The leather seat is a nice quality and should stand up to a lot of use. There was a couple of wood chips and nicks on two legs of the bench but felt they were not that noticeable. The appreance of the leather in our ladies restroom looks very sharp and matches the decor in the restroom extremely well. Ladies can put bags, coats, etc. on the seat to be more hands free. The best part is that is was so reasonably priced!

We ordered three benches for a museum. We were very happy with the look and quality. Great price too.
May 27, 2014
Very good purchase
The Renee Leather Bench is exactly what I had been looking for to place at the foot of my new king bed. It is attractive and sturdy, a perfect place to sit while putting on my shoes. It was delivered in a few days after ordering and came well-packed and protected with no assembly required. Although it is hard, it serves my needs and is a good launching pad for my dog to access my high bed without steps. I have no regrets and would highly recommend this piece to others.

Beautiful, great quality for the price!
I purchased the Renee Textured Leather Bench, for our
Billiard/Game room. It's the perfect length & height, for what we needed, some extra seating when watching a game. It looks great & goes well with the decor. The leather is very nice, and it's very well made. Delivery was very quick, ordered it on Monday, & it was here on Friday! Thinking of ordering another one for the foot of the bed in the guest room! Highly recommend the Renee Bench!
January 15, 2013
Wonderful Bench!!!
This is a nice, sturdy piece. I was a bit skeptical about ordering on-line but it arrived quickly with no damage. It's a nice addition to our basement game area. The leather is good and soft but strong enough to withstand our dogs jumping on it. Love this purchase and the price can't be beat. I've been looking for a long bench for months and this fits the bill!

Hello. We were interested in the textured leather chairs in Saddle color and later noticed that the Renee bench with similar colors was offered. However, saddle is not one of those colors. Was it offered in the past or will it be offered in the future?
Also, could a bench like this be used in a dining table?

As an example:
problem: it is cumbersome to specify initial data in the dashboard (groups, nodes, classes). linux sysadmins would rather work with configuration files (text) than GUIs
it would be great if I could write a yaml file to represent my group data and import it into the dashboard.
groups: a: x:1 y:1 z:1 classes: - one - two b: x:2 classes - one nodes: node1: :classes - one :groups - two
maybe this is already at least partially solved by the restful API?

A third party tool, external to the dashboard will provide import export functionality using the API.

There should be a fixed rule to support an API for everything that's remotely reasonable. It's definitely one of the rules of modern web programming, and we can't afford to get any further behind here than we already are.
#6 Updated by Peter Meier over 4 years ago
One of the first things I would like to extract is the amount of hosts with problems or hosts that didn't report for a long time
#7 Updated by Ahmed El Gamil about 4 years ago
I can use that to get the node 'number' that appears in the node URL in the dashboard (http://dashboard.example.com/nodes/4 <– 4 in this example) by querying using the node hostname.
Needed that to link the puppet reports to my servers documentation.
#8 Updated by Andrew Forgue almost 4 years ago
My use-case for this would be the ability to add, remove, retrieve nodes by name (not number, which isn't currently possible) in YAML and JSON formats and the ability to eventually set/remove tags (when/if they're implemented) (see: #5243).
Looking forward to this :)
#9 Updated by Chris Phillips almost 4 years ago
I'm keen on this to be able to add a node to the environment as part of a cobbler / kickstart build process. Using external node classifiers in Puppet it seems best to keep this data in puppet dashboard as that (and puppet itself of course) is the only location where all puppet registered systems will be guaranteed to be found, and dashboard seems to be the place for dynamic node modifications to happen compared to Pupper itself. Whilst this data could be kept in Cobbler using cobbler-ext-nodes or such like, not all systems are going to be in there.
Looking forward to this :)

I would just like to highlight the following repo:
It now contains a face with the following capabilities:
- list nodes
- list classes
- list groups
- create node
- create group
- create node
- add classes from module to dashboard
- download module from forge, add its classes to dashboard
#13 Updated by Michael Stahnke over 3 years ago
- Status changed from Accepted to Closed
The module dan lists seems to be a pretty good API and source for API usage. Better Documentation of the API might be required, but that should be a separate issue.

Bradford County president judge Jeffrey Smith has ruled John DeSisti competent to face trial for the 2006 shooting deaths of David and Carol Keeffe of Athens Township.
Smith filed an order Monday with the county Court of Common Pleas denying a motion by DeSisti's attorney, Arthur T. Donato, Jr., to find DeSisti incompetent to stand trial on two counts of murder and one count of burglary in the Nov. 2006 deaths. DeSisti, 75, of Waverly, failed to present the greater weight of evidence during an October competency hearing to prove himself unable to stand trial, Smith states in a written opinion filed with the court.
The two-day competency hearing was held following concerns over DeSisti's behavior at jury selection for his trial, which had been scheduled for April 2012. Smith ordered a forensic evaluation of DeSisti at Torrance State Hospital in June to determine whether he had a rational and factual understanding of the case and whether he would be able to assist counsel in his defense.
In his written opinion, Smith states that DeSisti's defense team failed to make a distinction between whether DeSisti was unable to cooperate with his counsel or whether he simply chose not to cooperate.
Smith acknowledges that evidence presented at October's hearing shows that DeSisti appears to suffer from some degree of dementia, which DeSisti's counsel argued had hindered his ability to participate in the proceedings. However, Smith states, "the court does not conclude that the defendant lacks either a rational or factual understanding of the proceedings, nor that he is unable to reasonably consult with counsel."
In the order, Smith references the prosecution's findings of fact and conclusions of law, filed with the court in January. One conclusion states that the issue is not DeSisti's dementia diagnosis, but whether his symptoms "are reflective of his actual capacity to participate in a trial or they are the result of basic personality traits," including "noncooperation, malingering and feigned behavior as a result of an appreciation of secondary gain."
Smith also references statements made in testimony at the two-day hearing, including members of the medical staff at the state correctional institution at Dallas, where DeSisti was housed both prior to and following his evaluation at Torrance.
Staff members testified that DeSisti's behavior changed after his counsel raised the issue of his competency. One witness states that DeSisti appeared to act normally when interacting with other inmates at the facility, but walked with a shuffling gait with his head down while being observed by staff, according to the opinion.
Psychiatrist John S. O'Brien II, who participated in an evaluation of DeSisti at Torrance along with other forensic experts, also testified that DeSisti's behavior at Dallas was, in his opinion, evidence of exaggeration of his symptoms for secondary gain. Smith's opinion states that O'Brien felt DeSisti appeared able to meaningfully participate in proceedings, but has chosen not to.
"In short, the defendant's conduct is not that of one who seeks to respond to the serious allegations against him," concludes Smith's opinion. "His conduct is that of one who simply seeks to avoid a response."

Lying Skull Crunchers with Cable
Lying Triceps extensions work the triceps. Implementation: (A) Lay down on a bench with your head at the even with the end of it, your knees bent, feet flat on the bench. The head of the bench should be right next to a low cable pulley. Attach a straight or cambered bar to the low pulley. Reach back and grab a hold of it and hold it over your head with your hands spaced about 8-10 inches apart, straighten your arms. (B) Keep your elbows still and lower the weight down till it is even with the back of your head so your triceps get a complete stretch. Push the bar back up through an arcing motion, lock your elbows out with your arms are pointed straight up overhead and flex your triceps for a peak contraction.
Lying Triceps extensions work the triceps.

Mueller, Philippe, Vedolin, Andrea and Yen, Yu-Min (2011) Bond variance risk premia. . (Unpublished)
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Using data from 1983 to 2010, we propose a new fear measure for Treasury markets, akin to the VIX for equities, labeled TIV. We show that TIV explains one third of the time variation in funding liquidity and that the spread between the VIX and TIV captures flight to quality. We then construct Treasury bond variance risk premia as the difference between the implied variance and an expected variance estimate using autoregressive models. Bond variance risk premia display pronounced spikes during crisis periods. We show that variance risk premia encompass a broad spectrum of macroeconomic uncertainty. Uncertainty about the nominal and the real side of the economy increase variance risk premia but uncertainty about monetary policy has a strongly negative effect. We document that bond variance risk premia predict excess returns on Treasuries, stocks, corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities, both in-sample and out-of-sample. Furthermore, this predictability is not subsumed by other standard predictors.
