Thanks, those are much simpler instructions and understandable. However there's no mention of bleaching which everyone else seems to have mentioned here, and also it mentions that you can do it by visible inspection with no mention of whether you are using a red safelight or daylight view, or some other color safelight, do you know? It also says just to use this chemistry and makes no mention of mixing it with anything else. If this is true why have others mentioned that it needs to be mixed with normal developer after a bleaching step? Again thanks this seems fairly straightforward, if it had been posted first, but because of the other mentions of additional instructions I'm curious which is more on target. Thanks!

Another great month for the Miami Heat. Another award for Erik Spoelstra. Spoelstra on Monday was named NBA Eastern Conference Coach of the Month for March, the second straight month he has earned the honor. He steered the Heat to a 17-1 record in March, the most wins by any team in a month in NBA history, after that had gone 12-1 in February. The Heat have won 29 of their past 30 games. Included in that was a 27-game winning streak, the second-longest in NBA history. Spoelstra joins Stan Van Gundy, who did it in 2004-05, as the only Heat coaches to have been named Coach of the Month twice in the same season. His fifth career win also tied Pat Riley for most in team history. The Heat closed March with a most surprising win. Despite three starters sitting out due to listed injuries, the Heat won 88-86 at San Antonio. The Heat have the NBA's best record at 58-15 while the Spurs have the second-best mark at 55-18. Being honored Monday for Western Conference Coach of the Month was Denve...

Also Worker,
You mention "sticky" I have a separate film that does NOT smell vinegary at all, and is just slippery, like oil, but doesn't smell bad at all, is that also a concern?
Should I separate that from other films too? Or is that just some kind of oil?
Thanks, I will NOT use the film. (the Pan-X) but can I wash the can and use it? Or will there be residual stuff in the metal that will damage future rolls I run through the can?
Thanks guys

New York Knicks vs. Denver Nuggets Free NBA Pick
- Updated: March 13, 2013
NBA Pick
New York Knicks
Denver Nuggets
Date/Time: Wednesday, March 13, 10:30 p.m. (ET)
Television: NBA TV
Basketball Odds from VietBet
Point Spread: Denver -8
Total: 208
NBA Betting Trends
New York Knicks
- New York is 3-6 ATS in its last 9 games on the road
- New York is 6-3 SU in its last 9 games
- The total has gone UNDER in 4 of New York's last 5 games on the road
- New York is 1-7 SU in its last 8 games when playing on the road against Denver
- New York is 3-6 SU in its last 9 games when playing Denver
Denver Nuggets
- Denver is 1-4 ATS in its last 5 games when playing at home against New York
- Denver is 7-1 SU in its last 8 games when playing at home against New York
- The total has gone OVER in 5 of Denver's last 6 games when playing New York
- Denver is 6-3 SU in its last 9 games when playing New York
- The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Denver's last 6 games at home
The Knicks had climbed their way back into second place in the Eastern Conference with a 6-2 straight-up record in their last eight games, but may have taken a major step backwards in a 92-63 loss to Golden State on Monday night as 2.5-point road underdogs. They now have to stay on road for three more games starting with Wednesday night's matchup against the hottest team in the Western Conference.
New York is 16-13 SU on the road this season but below .500 against the spread at 13-14-2. The total has stayed UNDER in their last four road games. One of the biggest concerns for this team in this contest is the health of Carmelo Anthony's right knee. He is not listed on the injury report and expected to play, but he has not appeared to be himself lately, especially in Monday night's rout. By his own admission, Anthony has already stated that he thinks the knee will be less than 100 percent for the rest of the season.
The Nuggets, on the other hand, have been playing at 120 percent over the past few weeks with nine straight victories including a 108-93 romp over Phoenix this past Monday night as nine-point favorites on the road. They now return home where they have gone 28-3 SU and are a highly profitable 22-9 ATS. During the nine-game run, Denver has compiled an 8-0-1 record ATS and the total has stayed UNDER in five of its last six games.
Ty Lawson leads the team in scoring with 17 points a game, but balance has been the key for the Nuggets on the offensive side of the ball this season with a total of eight players scoring at least nine points a game. Denver is ranked third in the league in both points-per-game (105.9) and rebounds (44.9) and shooting a healthy 47.9 percent from the field and 34.5 percent from three-point range.
Look for things to go from bad to worse for New York on this current four-game western swing as it is catching the Nuggets at the wrong time and in the wrong place. Anthony is not in any condition to put up a monster night against his old team and Denver is not about to let him.
Denver 106 New York 97

How to Serve Like Venus Williams
The ultimate weapon in any tennis player's arsenal is an accurate, high-velocity serve. Long a mainstay of men's tennis, rocketing serves have been the foundation Venus Williams's dominance over the last decade. Venus and Serena Williams both register serves in the 120s and rank tops in the fastest serves ever recorded. Serena launched a 128.6-mile-per-hour serve at last year's Australian Open, but Venus still holds the crown with her 129-mile-per-hour missile at the 2007 U.S. Open.
Though Venus, who has won seven Grand Slam titles and is currently promoting Jamba Juice's Million Free Smoothie giveaway, is past her prime at age 33 and trying to cope with Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disease that derailed her 2011 season, she enters the 2014 Australian Open ranked 38th in the world, a position she's maintained almost solely on the strength of her service.
At 6-foot-1, Venus is aided by her natural length, but she believes her muscle memory has been the key to success. "I've seen matches [where] people's serves go on and off because it's just not guaranteed as much," she tells 'Men's Journal.' "It's about the rhythm. It's about the timing."
Williams shared the keys to her serving game, but she admitted that the one thing she could provide was the opportunity to help tennis enthusiasts train hard and get some of what she has. "A serve is a complicated shot," she says. Good service demands both finesse and practice. Here's what Venus recommends.Launch Gallery » – Hunter Atkins

DescriptionIn action games players are required to have good reflexes and quick reaction in order to overcome challenges. Action games typically focus on combat, during which the player must press buttons or keys rapidly or in timed intervals in order to execute attacks and other moves. Non-combat challenges may include avoiding traps, jumping, running, completing tasks within a pressing time limit, etc.
Common action sub-genres are shooters, fighting, and platform games.
Though most racing / driving, sports, and many simulation games contain action-oriented gameplay, they can be considered action games only if they specifically emphasize arcade-like, reflex-based gameplay.
Action games may include extensive non-violent exploration and/or puzzle-solving, or combine themselves with other genres, e.g. role-playing or driving.
Quick thinking is often required to succeed in action games; however, games that specifically emphasize quick thinking over reflexes are usually real-time strategy or puzzle games.

Unpredictable permutation
|It has been suggested that this article be merged into pseudorandom permutation. (Discuss) Proposed since November 2013.
In mathematical cryptography, an unpredictable permutation (UP) Fk is a permutation whose values cannot be predicted by a fast randomized algorithm. Unpredictable permutations may be used as a cryptographic primitive, a building block for cryptographic systems with more complex properties.
An adversary for an unpredictable permutation is defined to be an algorithm that is given access to an oracle for both forward and inverse permutation operations. The oracle is given a challenge input k and is asked to predict the value of Fk. It is allowed to make a series of queries to the oracle to help it make this prediction, but is not allowed to query the value of k itself.[1]
A randomized algorithm for generating permutations generates an unpredictable permutation if its outputs are permutations on a set of items (described by length-n binary strings) that cannot be predicted with accuracy significantly better than random by an adversary that makes a polynomial (in n) number of queries to the oracle prior to the challenge round, whose running time is polynomial in n, and whose error probability is less than 1/2 for all instances. That is, it cannot be predicted in the complexity class PP, relativized by the oracle for the permutation.[1]
It can be shown that a function Fk is not a secure message authentication code (MAC) if it satisfies only the unpredictability requirement. It can also be shown that one cannot build an efficient variable input length MAC from a block cipher which is modelled as an UP of n bits. It has been shown that the output of a k = n/ω(log λ) round Feistel construction with unpredictable round functions may leak all the intermediate round values.[1] Even for realistic Unpredictable Functions (UF), some partial information about the intermediate round values may be leaked through the output. It was later shown that if a super-logarithmic number of rounds in the Feistel construction is used, then the resulting UP construction is secure even if the adversary gets all the intermediate round values along with the permutation output.[2]
There is also a theorem that has been proven in this regard which states that if there exists an efficient UP adversary Aπ that has non-negligible advantage επ in the unpredictability game against UP construction ψU,k and which makes a polynomial number of queries to the challenger, then there also exists a UF adversary Af that has non-negligible advantage in the unpredictability game against a UF sampled from the UF family F . From this, it can be shown that the maximum advantage of the UP adversary Aπ is επ = O (εf. (qk)6). Here εf denotes the maximum advantage of a UF adversary running in time O(t + (qk)5) against a UF sampled from F, where t is the running time of the PRP adversary Aψ and q is the number of queries made by it.[2][3]
In addition, a signature scheme that satisfies the property of unpredictability and not necessarily pseudo-randomness is essentially a Verifiable Unpredictable Function (VUF). A verifiable unpredictable function is defined analogously to a Verifiable Pseudorandom Function (VRF) but for pseudo-randomness being substituted with weaker unpredictability. Verifiable unpredictable permutations are the permutation analogs of VUFs or unpredictable analogs of VRPs. A VRP is also a VUP and a VUP can actually be built by building a VRP via the Feistel construction applied to a VRF. But this is not viewed useful since VUFs appear to be much easier to construct than VRFs.[4]

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The human cost of the Greek financial crisis
Dalia Hatuqa | 26 Apr 2014 14:04 GMT | Middle East
Ramallah, West Bank - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has said that he is still interested in extending talks with Israel despite ongoing challenges, and that a new government approved by Hamas and Fatah will follow the programme of the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO), which recognises Israel.
"If you want negotiations, stop all settlements: Don't tell me planning, don't tell me zoning, don't tell me tenders," Abbas said, addressing Israel in a speech during the 26th meeting of the PLO's Central Council, a body of the umbrella organisation representing all factions except Hamas. The two-day conference is being held to assess future Palestinian strategy just three days before a deadline for US-backed talks.
In a speech that lasted more than an hour, Abbas said he would lead a government of "national consensus" - one that includes independent technocrats, but not members of either Fatah or Hamas. On Thursday, Israel froze talks with the Palestinians after a unity deal between the two parties, who have been feuding since 2007, was signed in Gaza.
The negotiations are a PLO matter because it represents all Palestinians. At the same time, I recognise Israel and it will recognise Israel. I reject violence and it will reject violence.
- Mahmoud Abbas, Palestinian president
But the Palestinian president emphasised that this government would not deal with negotiations. "The negotiations are a PLO matter because it represents all Palestinians," Abbas said. "At the same time, I recognise Israel and it will recognise Israel. I reject violence and it will reject violence. I recognise the legitimacy of international agreements and it will recognise them. No one can call this a terrorist government."
Abbas said, however, he would not agree to Israel's insistence on a Palestinian recognition of a "Jewish state."
"In 1993 we recognised Israel and we still do," Abbas said, adding that Israel can call itself what it wants and noting that Jordan and Egypt, in their peace pacts with Israel, were not asked to make such a statement. "So why am I being asked to do this?," he said. "I will never recognise it [as such.]"
The crisis in U.S.-led talks first erupted on March 29 when Israel did not release the fourth and final batch of veteran Palestinian detainees incarcerated in Israeli prisons, which led Palestinians to sign more than a dozen international treaties and conventions.
Abbas said that unity between Fatah and Hamas was a necessary prerequisite for talks and a two-state solution, and that there was an Israeli determination not to reach a solution with the Palestinians.
"The Israelis don't want a wise, reasonable two-state solution," he said. He praised US Secretary of State John Kerry for what he called "outstanding efforts" in trying to secure a framework for negotiations between the two sides. "In the past 8.5 months I met [Kerry] 40 times," Abbas said. "This is proof he is serious and determined. But at the end of the day, though, we need to see results."
On Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his security cabinet decided to freeze talks just five days before the April 29 deadline. "Instead of choosing peace, Abu Mazen [Abbas] formed an alliance with a murderous terrorist organisation that calls for Israel's destruction," Netanyahu said.
But Abbas said achieving Palestinian unity did not necessarily mean an end to peace talks. "During a meeting with Israeli journalists earlier this week I said, 'I'm married to two women: you [the Israelis] are our partners and those [in Gaza] are my people...."
Abbas added that he believed Israel was approving and supporting the inter-Palestinian feud.
"The Israelis agreed to the rift. Why? Because every time that we came to negotiate with Israel, it said, 'But with whom shall will we speak with, [the leaders in] Gaza or the West Bank?' So we made a reconciliation pact, and now they tell us we must choose between Gaza and negotiations."
The PCC's chairman, Salim Za'noun, said many issues would be discussed throughout the two-day conference, including holding elections for the Palestinian National Council (PNC) and the PLO's Executive Committee, as well as joining 63 international organisations and treaties. The PNC is the Palestinian parliament-in-exile and the executive committee is elected by it to make decisions on its behalf, including signing agreements with Israel.

Hannah Montana "Murdered," Plus Other Things You May Have Missed from Miley Cyrus' 'SNL' Gig
Hannah Montana fans: your girl's dead.
Miley Cyrus made the announcement during her opening monologue on Saturday Night Live.
After explaining why she wasn't twerking on the show and issuing an apology for people who make the bottom half of shirts, the 20-year-old gave an update on her beloved Disney character.
"She was murdered," Cyrus said.
The "Wrecking Ball" singer also opened the show with a familiar costume: her bear outfit from the MTV Video Music Awards. And speaking of familiar, that's the wonderful Vanessa Bayer as Miley (during her "Party in the USA" days).
Here are some other highlights from last night's SNL: Miley as Scarlett Johansson in a "lost audition tape" reel for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie:
Miley's stripped down version of "We Can't Stop." (Take note of her footwear). She also performed "Wrecking Ball" on the program.
And this gem: Miley as Michele Bachmann, opposite the hilarious Taran Killam as House Speaker John Boehner, in a music video about the government shutdown.
Bruce Willis will host next week's episode, with musical guest Katy Perry.

Final Score: Pittsburgh 4, Ottawa 1
Ottawa, ON (Sports Network) - Tyler Kennedy scored a pair of goals and Marc- Andre Fleury made 30 saves, as the Pittsburgh Penguins took a 4-1 win over the Ottawa Senators at Scotiabank Place.
Bill Guerin and Jordan Staal also scored for the Penguins, who have won three in a row and five of six to begin the season. Pittsburgh also snapped a three- game slide against Ottawa.
The defending Stanley Cup champions are 3-0-0 on a four-game road trip, which ends Wednesday at Carolina.
"You have to go out and win games together as a team," said Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma. "It's killing penalties, it's getting goals from your third line, it's your goaltender coming up big, it's your big guys on certain night and your power plays on other nights. We've been able to do that for this road trip and it's set ourselves up to have a real good road trip."
Milan Michalek had the lone goal for the Senators, who had a three-game win streak broken. Pascal Leclaire let in all four goals on 28 shots in defeat.
Michalek got Ottawa on the scoreboard first, after the Penguins turned the puck over trying to get it out of their own zone. Jason Spezza sent a pass from the right boards to Jonathan Cheechoo in the slot, and Cheechoo sent a backhand pass to Michalek.
Michalek was to the right of the crease, shifted backhand-to-forehand to get the puck around Fleury, then put the puck in net with 4:01 left in the first.
But it was all Penguins after that, as Guerin got Pittsburgh on the board just 39 seconds after Michalek's tally.
Then in the second, Kennedy got his first when he tipped Jay McKee's point pass, and the puck floated past a surprised Leclaire into the net at the 6:16 mark.
Kennedy got his second with just under two minutes left in the middle frame, and Staal made it a 4-1 game midway through the third. Leclaire made a save on Michael Rupp's shot, but couldn't control the puck. Staal scooped it up in front of the crease and lifted it into the goal at 9:54.
"They're a good team, they're riding high," admitted Spezza. "We're a team trying to reestablish ourselves and sometimes you don't get those bounces. I think we did a lot of good things, but there's a lot of things we can learn from. To beat the best team you have to get bounces sometimes, but we didn't get them."
Fleury made 14 saves in the third to seal the victory.
"He's been great all season," Pittsburgh forward Sidney Crosby said of Fleury. "Great goalies know when the timing is right. Especially early on, he didn't give them a chance to get themselves back in the hockey game. It was great for us. He knows when it's time to step up."
Game Notes
Ottawa has won three of the four matchups with Pittsburgh in each of the last two seasons...Craig Adams had two assists...Ottawa is 2-1-0 on its current four-game homestand, which concludes Thursday against Tampa Bay.

Peaches Flambe
|3 Tablespoon
|Corn starch
|2 Teaspoon
|Apricot jam
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Peeled sliced peaches
|3 Cup (48 tbs) (fresh or frozen and defrosted)
|Lemon juice
|1 Teaspoon
|4 Tablespoon
1) Combine sugar and cornstarch in a casserole (1 1/2-quart size).
2) Add jam and water and mix well.
3) Heat the contents for about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes in the microwave, till the contents turn bubbly and start to thicken (stir the contents a couple of times during this process)
4) Meanwhile, add lemon juice to the peaches and mix the well.
5) Add these peaches to the sauce.
6) Again microwave the contents for about 4 to 5 minutes on high temperature, till the peaches turn tender (stir the contents during this process).
7) Microwave brandy in a small dish for about 20 seconds for it to become warm.
8) Add this to the peaches mixture and stir it in. (the brandy can also be poured into a ladle and ignited and then poured on to the peaches. This gives the dish the real flambe effect).
