Picture: Jack Black The 2008 Cannes Film Festival - Day 2 'Kung Fu Panda' - Photocall Cannes, France - 15.05.08
Heavyweight funnyman Jack Black loves his Hollywood's Most Unlikely Sex Symbol Tag, because it proves humour is indeed the best aphrodisiac.
Black has played the lead in a number of films, including Shallow Hal and School Of Rock - despite not possessing conventional Hollywood leading man looks.
The Tenacious D star believes it's because he is seen as more attainable to cinemagoers compared to sex symbols Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt.
He says, "I think it's all down to the fact that I am perceived as gettable, whereas with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, there's no prayer.
"The girls have no chance with those guys but me... maybe it's because they think I would be a fun date.
"A little humour goes a long way. Johnny Carson said it's the number one aphrodisiac so I must be sexy."

Three Shelby County businesses were nominated for Republic Bank's 2013 We Care Award, and one of them – the Shelby County Sheriff's Office – expressed considerable pride in the honor.
Thirty-nine companies were nominated with three, the sheriff's office, Martinrea Heavy Stamping and Process Machinery, coming from Shelby County.
Seven winners, all from Jefferson County and surrounding areas, were chosen: Amazon Fulfillment, ARGI Financial Group, Corrigan Electric & Home Systems, Horseshoe Southern Indiana, PMR Companies, Strothman & Company PSC and Toshiba Business Solutions. There were no second or third place winners.
Michael Sadofsky, chief marketing officer for Republic Bank, cited community involvement as the key to the award.
"Companies were judged on how they encourage employees to become involved in volunteer activities, either during or after work hours," he said. "They were also evaluated on how they support community-based initiatives through philanthropic efforts and neighborhood assistance."
Gene Witt, chief deputy for the sheriff's office, said everyone at the office was gratified to be considered for the award, even though they didn't win.
"It is a great honor to be nominated," he said. "It's an acknowledgement of what our deputies do out in the community, as well as on their own time. We have deputies who are coaches, Sunday school teachers – they just do so much, it's incredible."
Witt, himself, is also a good example of someone who active in the community. He was building chair for a new multi-purpose building at Highland Baptist Church, is a past president of Shelby County Farm Bureau and is a member of the Leadership Shelby board.
Both sheriff's detectives are also active in the community. Jason Rice is on the boards of 911 and Leadership Shelby and also helps out with collecting gifts and clothes for children at Christmas, as well as being active with youth sports and park events, coaching basketball, tee-ball and baseball.
"This experience [coaching] was very rewarding because of the ability to connect with the youth of Shelby County," Rice said.
Eric Hettinger is vice president of the Shelby County Metro Fraternal Order of Police, an organization whose members do so much more than people realize, he said, from helping with the Shop with a Cop program, to child I.D., neighborhood watches, Project Graduation, health fairs, and many other things.
"I have seen many take their personal time to help with everything from coaching little league teams to volunteering for Centro Latino," he said.
Deputy Audrey Armstrong said being a DARE (Drug Enforcement Abuse Resistance Education) instructor for the past 20 years has meant so much to her – she teaches in all the elementary schools in the city and county.
"One lesson is on peer pressure to help the students understand the pressure they will be faced with and ways to deal with all the pressures of life," she said, adding that she stresses to them that it's "cool" to say no sometimes.
Other deputies involved in community service include:
Ted Sils, manager of product services at Process Machinery, said, "We're very pleased to be nominated. We try very hard to be an important part of the community."

When hiring employees, negligent hiring practices can doom the process. Learn from your colleagues' successes – and avoid their pitfalls.
Smart interview questions, well-written job descriptions, and sharp interviewing result in hiring employees that work out well, AND make you look good in the process.
Besides their obvious purpose of identifying work to be performed, well-written job descriptions are integral in recruiting and interviewing prospective employees, rating job performance, classifying employees as exempt or non-exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), meting out discipline, and making promotion and compensation decisions. Here are the 9 steps to crafting a legal and complete job description:
Tempted to ask applicants about their past medical history, disabilities or other private information related to potential disabilities? Don't do so before you make a job offer.
When employers choose the youngest candidate for a job, older candidates may suspect age bias played a role. That could mean a lawsuit is looming. If a disappointed applicant sues, it won't help the employer that the overall candidate pool included many older applicants. What matters is who was selected.

I was tagged by so here's my answers.
What book(s) are you currently reading/have you finished most recently?
Reading: Tad Williams: Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn
What is your dream job, and do you currently have it?
I can't really say I even have a dream job. I can't seem to think of something that's a good medium between enough money and enough time for my family AND that I would really love as well. I'm more of a believer in the 'good enough' job I currently work as a researcher in linguistics at the university, which is something I like a lot, and scores high on my job list but for the fact that the job insecurity is terrible and chances are high I won't be able to keep doing this unless I'm willing to move to another country or even another continent, which I'm not, and even then chances are only 1/13.
Are you on Tumblr and/or Patreon?
From your own gallery, which deviation is your favourite?
This one: cause it's the first somewhat professional looking photograph I ever took.
Which languages do you speak/understand?
Dutch, English, French, German, Latin, Ancient Greek (used to be good at it, rather rusty now )
and Ten facts about myself
1. I'm getting married in a little less than a month (09-05)
2. I'm a food addict, so much so that my boyfriend calls me 'my little stomach on legs' (which luckily sounds a little less gross in Dutch )
3. I'm also one of those people that can get 'hangry' (angry because of hunger). Although angry is a bit too strong a word, I do get irritated much more easily when I'm hungry.
4.I love growing my own fruit and vegetables, especially the more special kinds which are hard to get at the store.
5. I used to own pet rats and was amazed by their intelligence and loving nature. I don't keep any at the moment, because of their short life span. Their passing really hurt me and it's sad to know from the start you're not going to have them very long even with the very best of care.
6. One of the reasons why I started doing photography is because it's a great stress relief for me. It's one of the few things that make me completely forget about all my deadlines.
7. I would really love to design a CD booklet some day.
8. I like to try and support local wildlife any way I can for example by a wild flower patch for bees and rare butterfly species, a hibernation spot for hedgehogs, a little place for the rare bat species around here etc.
9. I love being out in the sun in summer, and I hated that my university exam period usually took up that part of the year with the best weather. My compromise was to study out in the garden in my bikini. After the exam period was over, I usually looked like I'd just returned from holidays.
10. My number one favourite sport is skiing. I learned it when I was barely two and half years old and can't remember not being able to. There's been only one year in my life when I wasn't able to go skiing due to it being my first year at uni, and me being very nervous about the load of studying to do, and it really hurt not being able to go. It's so much a part of me that Ischgl, the skiing resort where I've been the most in my life, feels like a second home to me. And while I would never force someone to keep doing something against their will, I did demand that my boyfriend would at least try out skiing and give it a chance (luckily for me, he turned out to love it just as much as I do )
Birthday features!
Wish you all a very lovely birthday and thanks a lot for your support

In search of 'God Particle' with the blessings of Lord Nataraja
12/07/2012 13:44:17
It is Lord Nataraja, the very personification of creation and destruction and whose very form signifies cosmic dance, who stands to welcome scientists who enter CERN, the Research Centre where they identified the 'God Particle'
On June 18, 2004, an unusual new landmark was unveiled at CERN, the European Center for Research in Particle Physics in Geneva — a 2m tall statue of the Indian deity Shiva Nataraja, the Lord of Dance. The statue, symbolizing Shiva's cosmic dance of creation and destruction, was given to CERN by the Indian government to celebrate the research center's long association with India.
In choosing the image of Shiva Nataraja, the Indian government acknowledged the profound significance of the metaphor of Shiva's dance for the cosmic dance of subatomic particles, which is observed and analyzed by CERN's physicists. The parallel between Shiva's dance and the dance of subatomic particles was first discussed by Fritjof Capra in an article titled "The Dance of Shiva: The Hindu View of Matter in the Light of Modern Physics," published in Main Currents in Modern Thought in 1972. Shiva's cosmic dance then became a central metaphor in Capra's international bestseller The Tao of Physics, first published in 1975 and still in print in over 40 editions around the world.
Fritcj of Capara American Physicist
A special plaque next to the Shiva statue at CERN explains the significance of the metaphor of Shiva's cosmic dance with several quotations from The Tao of Physics. Here is the text of the plaque:
Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, seeing beyond the unsurpassed rhythm, beauty, power and grace of the Nataraja, once wrote of it "It is the clearest image of the activity of God which any art or religion can boast of."
More recently, Fritjof Capra explained that "Modern physics has shown that the rhythm of creation and destruction is not only manifest in the turn of the seasons and in the birth and death of all living creatures, but is also the very essence of inorganic matter," and that "For the modern physicists, then, Shiva's dance is the dance of subatomic matter."
It is indeed as Capra concluded: "Hundreds of years ago, Indian artists created visual images of dancing Shivas in a beautiful series of bronzes. In our time, physicists have used the most advanced technology to portray the patterns of the cosmic dance. The metaphor of the cosmic dance thus unifies ancient mythology, religious art and modern physics."

Immortal Vedas & other scriptures
Physicists from the experiment at the European Organisation for Nuclear
Research (CERN) said on Wednesday they had found a new sub-atomic particle
consistent with the long-sought Higgs boson, which is believed to confer mass.
Renowned British physicist Stephen Hawking said Wednesday the Nobel Prize should
be given to Peter Higgs, the man who gave his name to the Higgs boson particle.
Former Cambridge University professor Hawking also joked that the discovery had
actually cost him $100 in a bet.
In an interview with the BBC Wednesday, Hawking, who has motor neurone disease,
said: "This is an important result and should earn Peter Higgs the Nobel Prize.
"But it is a pity in a way because the great advances in physics have come from
experiments that gave results we didn't expect.
"For this reason I had a bet with Gordon Kane of Michigan University that the
Higgs particle wouldn't be found. It seems I have just lost $100."
After half a century of research, physicists announced at the European
Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) Wednesday they had found a new
sub-atomic particle consistent with the elusive Higgs boson which is believed to
confer mass.
Hawking said the discovery was of major importance.
"If the decay and other interactions of this particle are as we expect, it will
be strong evidence for the so-called standard model of particle physics, the
theory that expains all our experiments so far," Hawking said.
Úrîmad Bhâgavatam 6.16.36 declares that:

parama-anu — of the atomic particle; parama-mahatoh — and of the biggest (the
result of the combination of atoms); tvam — You; âdi-anta — in both the
beginning and the end; antara — and in the middle; vartî — existing;
traya-vidhurah — although without beginning, end or middle; âdau — in the
beginning; ante — at the end; ap

We are taught by our great Gurus that the universe is visible only because of maya. If maya is passed then what will be left would be only the supreme power. In other words, maya is what gives things mass and makes them visible.
The scientists say Higgs Boson is the invisible particle which gives matter its mass. In spiritual (Hindu)parleys Brahmam is considered matter. They say Higggs boson is difficult to see. Same is said about maya. The definition is 'Ya maa, sa maaya' means 'that which is not there is maya' This is what I understood.
Can anyone explain this through these columns?
No meaningful dialogue can be held with Pakistan until it abandons the use of terrorism as an instrument of its foreign policy.

A standoff Sunday at a mobile home on the west side of North Platte ended peacefully when the man walked out.
A 19-year-old woman told officers that she and her domestic partner Tyler Milligan had argued, and Milligan pointed a shot gun at her, threatening to shoot her.
The woman left the mobile home, but said Milligan, a convicted felon, continued to threaten her as she was leaving, police spokesman Rodney Brown said.
Officers secured the area and began evacuating neighbors for their safety.
Milligan was contacted by text message, requesting that he come out of the home and resolve the situation in a peaceful manner, but did not respond to the text or to other requests from the victim or police.
Approximately 20 minutes later, Milligan walked out of the residence. He was immediately arrested without further trouble.
Milligan, 21, is charged with domestic assault, use of a weapon to commit a felony, possession of a deadly weapon by a prohibited person and terroristic threats. He is held on a $250,000 bond.

Amazon posts lower 4Q net income but stock jumps
For the current quarter, Amazon expects revenue of $15 billion to $16.6 billion. Analysts had expected revenue of $16.86 billion.
For all of 2012, the company booked a net loss of $39 million, or 9 cents per share, down from a profit of $631 million, or $1.37 per share. The shortfall was due to a 60 cent per share loss in the third quarter of the year, which resulted from a charge related to its stake in online deals site LivingSocial. The company said it was also due to heavy spending on its Kindle business, new geographic locations and video content. It also said it hired about 50,000 temporary workers at its distribution centers across the U.S. during the holiday season.
Revenue in 2012 grew 27 percent to $61.09 billion from $48.08 billion, slightly below analysts' expectations of $62.1 billion.
Few large corporations are able to grow revenue at such a pace year after year. Apple Inc., the world's most valuable public company, is a notable example. The iPad maker increased revenue by 29 percent in 2012, to $165 billion. Still, investors punished Apple's stock after it reported earnings last week, due to signs that the company's profit margin is shrinking and its iPhone faces stiffer competition in overseas markets.
Seattle-based Amazon's shares rose $24, or 9.2 percent, to $284.35 in after-hours trading. The stock had closed down $15.69, or 5.7 percent, at $260.35.

Take full advantage of spring's bounty and cook this simple dish: grilled asparagus with ricotta salata and a fried egg. Spears of asparagus are grilled for only a few minutes before they are paired with salty shreds of cheese and the egg. You'll want to cook the egg until the white is cooked through but the yolk is still runny so that it can create a sauce for the asparagus. Serve this dish for breakfast with a slice of toast or enjoy it as a light lunch.
Grilled Asparagus with a Fried Egg and Ricotta Salata
1 bunch Asparagus
1/2 cup Greek Whole Milk Yogurt
1 Egg
1/4 grated Ricotta Salata
Pour in enough olive oil to thinly coat the bottom of the pan.
Add a little more oil, and cook egg sunny-side up in same pan.

Product description
Following the pioneering work of Trevithick, Stephenson, and many others, steam locomotives continued to evolve and be refined until overtaken by diesel and electric traction technology. Although the last main-line steam service was operated by British Rail in 1968, there is still immense interest in steam traction, as demonstrated by the increasing numbers of privately renovated and preserved locomotives and heritage railways around the world. In How Steam Locomotives Really Work, the authors, both railway experts, cover the design of locomotives, the many processes in the conversion of fuel to tractive effort, the dynamic characteristics of the locomotive as a vehicle, the braking equipment, and a host of other systems, major and minor, that make up a working locomotive. They also explain the reasons for running and maintenance practices. Their explanations will fascinate enthusiasts, whether practical or armchair. Steam locomotive design may have started in the United Kingdom, but it quickly developed parallel and sometimes diverging techniques in other countries, leading to many distinct developments that contribute to the national characteristics of some locomotives. The authors embrace this diversity, and railway enthusiasts from around the world will find this book engrossing and enlightening.

This category is for all things relating to astronomy and astrophotography.
Full Moon in May 2014
Last night I went out with my Canon SLR to take some nice photos of the moon, but when I got out I discovered my battery was almost flat – and I didn't manage to get a good shot. But to make up for it, here's a picture taken with my Lumia 920.
Mars and The Moon in April 2014
When I was looking at my Star Chart application last week, I noticed that on the evening of the 14th of April Mars would nice and close to the Moon in Virgo. I set myself a reminder walk up my closest hill and take some snaps.
With almost-full Moon this bright you can't get both celestial objects in the same shot without either Mars being too dark, or the Moon being be too bright. I don't think it matters in this photo though, you can clearly see Mars, Theta Virginis and Spica through the trees.
I think it all looks rather nice.
While I was up there waiting for it to get dark I took a few more photos. Above you can see the glow of Leeds in the evening sky, and below you can see Jupiter in Gemini.
Later on in the evening, my American friends were able to enjoy a nice lunar eclipse. Here's a lovely photograph taken by Jon Philpott through his telescope.
Kielder Aurora in February 2014
Last week I managed to find myself in Kielder around the time of the Kielder Forrest Star Camp which is held twice a year in the spring and autumn. On the Thursday night the UK was graced with a fine show of aurora – however (as is usually the way with these things) most of the evening we covered by cloud and rain.
I did manage to get a few shots though, and the above one is the first (not focussed!) photograph I took of the sky to try and work out if I could pick anything up – and I could! However you can already see the clouds starting to come in.
Even though cloud covers most of the sky, you can really see the colour shine through the gaps in this photo. I only managed to get a few more shots before the rain kicked in, and unfortunately the next day there wasn't a sign of anything green in the sky.
This was my first experience of the aurora, and I was thrilled to be able to capture it.
Venus and The Moon in December 2013
I must admit I haven't taken too many astronomical photos recently, but when I was driving home last week I spotted this view and I couldn't resist getting my camera out as soon as I stopped.

My DH is a weirdo. Lol. We can't agree on a name for our girl. I want something we will both like but he suggest names like Snow or Mi'Amor or Lovely. He chooses weird names obviously. I like Gissele or Theresa. But he said he wants the name to mean something to him. Not just a name. Just venting. Anyone have the same problem can't agree on a name ?
Ugh baby naming me and my DH just won't agree on anything ?

Posted 12/26/2012
Oh yes. We are expecting a girl as well, he never suggests any names and when I do, 99% of the rime

Give it time. My DH didn't like my idea for our DD's name at first. By the time she came, he loved it.

|Patent application number
|APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION AND/OR ORIENTATION OF A TIRE MOUNTED UNIT IN A WHEEL MONITORING SYSTEM - An apparatus for determining the position and/or orientation of a tyre mounted unit in a wheel monitoring system comprises a lateral force sensor that is responsive to forces exerted on the respective tyre along a lateral axis that is parallel with an axle of the vehicle on which the tyre is mounted. The lateral force sensor is arranged to produce an output signal that indicates the direction of the exerted forces. A controller determines the position and/or orientation of the tyre unit depending on the exerted force direction indicated by the output signal.
|TRACKING FILTER APPARATUS FOR WHEEL MONITORING SYSTEMS - A wheel monitoring system that includes a tracking filter apparatus for tracking a signal that has a varying main frequency. The tracking filter apparatus has an adjustable filter and a filter controller arranged to measure the amplitude of the filtered signal and to compare amplitude against a reference value. The filter controller adjusts the cut off frequency of the filter if the measured amplitude differs from the reference value by an amount that exceeds a threshold value. The filter controller adjusts the cut off frequency such that the main frequency lies within the roll off region of the filter's frequency response. The system may be used to track signals that are produced by shock sensors in a wheel mounted monitoring device.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The human cost of the Greek financial crisis
26 May 2010 06:36 GMT
"We are reciting a very powerful prayer to summon the Lord to help our country," said Sumitr Khorana, a Hindu community leader, reflecting a general anxiety that Thailand's turmoil is far from over.
"Things are quiet now but there is fear still within us because none of us know what can happen in the future."
Global manhunt
The ceremonies come a day after Thai authorities accused Thaksin Shinawatra, the prime minister deposed in a 2006 coup, of terrorism and issued an arrest warrant on charges that carries a death sentence.
Al Jazeera's Alan Fisher, reporting from Budva in Montenegro, said Thaksin had been at his home in Montenegro when Thai authorities launched what they described as an international manhunt, enlisting the help of international police organisation, Interpol, and the former prime minister left the country soon after that.
"All European countries have said that they will not accept him. In Dubai they said they were willing to have him on their soil but he must not engage in political activities while he's there.
"But what is likely is that he will return to Montenegro because the country has never extradited a citizen, and as a citizen Thaksin has that protection," our correspondent said.
Montenegro granted Thaksin citizenship this year.
Thaksin, who fled abroad ahead of a corruption conviction he claims was politically motivated, is accused of being the main force behind the red shirts.
The former prime minister said on his Twitter page on Tuesday that he did not "want to see Thailand turn into a banana republic, where one guy's free to just push any button in the system and destroy whatever justice and credibility it has". "Don't go around telling the world that you're a democratic country. Be ashamed," he said.
Sukhumbhand Paribatra, the governor of Bangkok and a member of the ruling Democrat party, told Reuters Television that Wednesday's religious ceremonies were meant to "wipe away a bad path and to create a better future".
"It is very important for all of us in Bangkok to forgive and move ahead," he said.
But analysts say without major reforms to address claims of marginalisation from the rural poor – who form the bulk of the red shirts - such prayers and forgiveness will not end a polarising crisis that has cost the country at least 85 lives and the economy billions of dollars.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- The State Board of Higher Education has increased tuition at Oregon's seven universities by an average of 6 percent for next school year.
The increase approved Friday will be offset somewhat by cuts in fees.
The increases range from 1.5 percent at Western Oregon University to 9.9 percent at Southern Oregon University.
Because of fee cuts, total tuition and fees would actually fall at Western Oregon and Portland State.
At the University of Oregon, the state's most expensive public university, a proposed 6 percent increase would push the cost of tuition and fees for undergrads to more than $9,300.
The system average would be $7,841.
