In one of its earlier drafts, the new romantic comedy "And So It Goes" might have starred Jack Nicholson and have been set in California.
As it happened, it stars Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton and was shot almost entirely in Connecticut.
The kismet of talent availability and tax breaks helped create the film, which opens Friday, July 25, that is also an unintentional travelogue of Connecticut, from the easy seaside living of the coast, to gritty projects of Bridgeport to the amusement rides of Lake Compounce.
It was Nicholson, though, who suggested the idea of a graying love story that is "And So It Goes" says director Rob Reiner, whose films have included "This Is Spinal Tap," "The Princess Bride," "Stand By Me," "When Harry Met Sally," "A Few Good Men" and "The Bucket List."
"When we did the press junket for 'The Bucket List,' all the journalists would ask us what's on your bucket list?" Reiner said in a recent interview. "They asked Jack that question and he'd say 'One more great romance.' And that gave me the idea that there was another movie to be made about people finding each other in the later stage of life.
"So we hired Mark Andrus who wrote 'As Good as it Gets' and he came in and wrote a draft," Reiner says. "And this is what came out of it."
Nicholson never got the part, though.
"It turns out that he decided he was retiring from acting, he doesn't want to act any more," Reiner says. "It was obviously a thought, but we didn't pursue it."
Instead, he looked up an old friend, Douglas, still a matinee idol at 69.
"I loved the idea of working with him again because we had done 'American President' together and we were friends, and we connect on a lot of different levels," Reiner says.
And Douglas, fresh off his Emmy-winning role as Liberace in HBO's "Behind the Candelabra," was happy to film it in Connecticut, a state whose tax breaks for movie makers have made it a popular location for the past decade.
"I had just done 'Behind the Candelabra' and 'Last Vegas,' so the idea of filming at home was great," Douglas, a Westchester, N.Y., resident, said in press materials for the film. "It was just a 25-minute drive to get back to the house to see my kids every night. That was very attractive."
Douglas also had a familiarity with the area, a spiffed up cove on Ferris Street in the Black Rock section of Bridgeport.
"Black Rock's a very nice, gentrified area," Douglas said. "It's made up mostly of a lot of smaller houses owned by either retired policemen or firemen or houses that are just rented out."
Bridgeport — where some scenes were filmed near the projects — "is a pretty rough town," Douglas said. "Black Rock is not. And it gives you a good sense of Southport, which is right next door." And it's also where the film takes place; the cars all have Connecticut plates and Douglas' character proudly reads the Fairfield Citizen.
First drafts of the script set the story in San Diego, where bungalows and fourplexes are more common — and were important to the story.
"The script had that kind of architecture where people have concrete cutouts and shared balconies and staircases," said "And So It Goes" production designer Ethan Tobman in press materials. "That kind of architecture doesn't really exist on the East Coast. But we still kept the functionality of the plot, so that people were living on top of each other, sharing a fourplex."
Tobman said it wasn't easy to find such a structure and a six-week scouring of the Northeast coast took them from New Jersey to the Hamptons of Long Island to the Connecticut coast.
"We happened by chance upon this very-run down section of Connecticut, which has been in decline economically since the 20s or 30s," he said.
On a dead end street on Burr Creek they remade a two story duplex into what looked like a fourplex, adding trellises, balconies and spiral staircases that brought tenants in close contact. "It was a great narrative visual," Tobman said. "Especially for Michael's character, who just wants to be left alone."

Curcuma caulina (Indian arrowroot)
Curcuma caulina (Indian arrowroot) (Photo: Dr Sachin A. Punekar, Biospheres)
Species information
Curcuma caulina J.Graham
Indian arrowroot, arrowroot lily (English); chavar (Marathi); tikhur (Hindi)
Vulnerable (VU) according to IUCN Red List criteria.
Mixed deciduous forest.
None known.
About this species
Curcuma caulina is a tall, annual herb that is endemic to the state of Maharashtra in southwestern India. It is used to produce arrowroot (a starch normally obtained from Maranta arundinacea or Curcuma angustifolia).
A genus within the ginger family (Zingiberaceae), Curcuma contains nearly 100 species, including turmeric (Curcuma longa), the underground stems of which are the source of the bright yellow spice. The name Curcuma comes from the Arabic kurkum meaning turmeric.
Hitchenia caulina (J.Graham) Baker

Geography and distribution
Curcuma caulina is restricted to the state of Maharashtra in southwestern India. It is also widely cultivated (for the production of arrowroot starch) in some parts of Goa, Diu, Daman, Dadra and Nagar Haveli.
Overview: An annual herb reaching a height of 50–120 cm. Numerous tubers, each about the size of an orange with white flesh and covered with fibrous roots, develop under the perennial rhizomes (underground stems).
Leaves: Up to 50 cm long, narrow at the base, with prominent veins.
Flowers: Yellow or white, 10–15 cm long, borne in a spike, with prominent greenish-white or pinkish-white bracts.
Threats and conservation
Indian arrowroot is listed as Vulnerable (VU) according to IUCN Red List criteria. Threats to the native, endemic-rich flora of the high elevation plateaus of Maharashtra include grazing, soil erosion, mining for iron and aluminium ores, tourism and private land development.
Conservation assessments carried out at Kew
Curcuma caulina is being monitored as part of the IUCN Sampled Red List Index for Plants project, which aims to produce conservation assessments for a representative sample of the world's plant species. This information will then be used to monitor trends in extinction risk and help focus conservation efforts where they are needed most.
The tubers of Indian arrowroot yield a white, edible starch that is used as a substitute for arrowroot (a starch normally obtained from Maranta arundinacea or Curcuma angustifolia). The tubers are harvested and scraped, washed, and then rubbed on a grater to produce a pulp. The pulp is washed with cold water, allowed to settle, and then washed again. The whole process is repeated until the sediment is pure white. It is then sun-dried and allowed to harden into a cake, which is then ground to a powder for use.
This species at Kew
Pressed and dried specimens of other species of Curcuma are held in Kew's Herbarium, where they are available to researchers from around the world, by appointment. The details of some of these can be seen online in Kew's Herbarium Catalogue.

Nice product looks great in my man cave BUT the directions to build these items are awful. They are typed out in words only no pictorial to help you avoid making a mistake and having to take it apart all over again. To drive the top on to the stand there are no marking on the back to help you line it up properly with our it being uneven. Very frustrating all they have to do is take about 10 extra minutes prepping the piece to go out and customers like me could just write a nice review without any BUTS!!!!!

I am quite new to the subject and I started playing with RIB following some indications given in a previous post.
- I am saving the RIB on one shared directory and rendering with a second computer where only the 3Delight engine is istalled. This is the best form of "network computing" I was able to utilize so far with DAZ (as Reality seems to me so much slower even if it actually distributes the load on the network). Anyone have suggestions on how to use this basic "RIB" method in a more efficient way?
- Even on the same computer I can see that saving as RIB and rendering with 3Delight alone is much less demanding (in terms of PC loads) than rendering inside DAZ. Not only I can keep using DAZ editor while rendering externally but I don't have major pc overflows (and slow downs while working) even rendering complex scenes with several figures and lights/shadows. I am surprised and I was wondering why if I render inside DAZ I have to stop using it (no multi thread possible?) and I cannot use any other program (like Word Excel etc) and if I use the 3Delight external engine for the same render I can keep using DAZ and work with other programs if I need without major slowdowns. Did I configure something wrong inside DAZ or is that a common thing?

Tom Baker, who played the fourth incarnation of the Doctor, said he will appear in the 50th anniversary special.
In the course of this journey, he decided he believed in the incarnation of Christ.
Their correspondence became The Lifespan of a Fact, the third incarnation of the essay.
c.1300, "embodiment of God in the person of Christ," from Old French incarnacion (12c.), from Late Latin incarnationem (nominative incarnatio), "act of being made flesh" (used by Church writers especially of God in Christ), noun of action from past participle stem of Latin incarnare "to make flesh," from in- "in" (see in- (2)) + caro (genitive carnis) "flesh" (see carnage).
The Christian belief that the Son, the second person of the Trinity, was incarnated, or made flesh, in the person of Jesus, in order to save the world from original sin.
that act of grace whereby Christ took our human nature into union with his Divine Person, became man. Christ is both God and man. Human attributes and actions are predicated of him, and he of whom they are predicated is God. A Divine Person was united to a human nature (Acts 20:28; Rom. 8:32; 1 Cor. 2:8; Heb. 2:11-14; 1 Tim. 3:16; Gal. 4:4, etc.). The union is hypostatical, i.e., is personal; the two natures are not mixed or confounded, and it is perpetual.

As I mentioned in an earlier post (Talents and Spiritual Gifts: What Do We Mean By "Talents"?), I have borrowed the distinction between natural talents and spiritual gifts from work being done some of my Roman Catholic colleagues in lay spiritual formation and discipleship. To be sure, it is a useful distinction but as I mentioned before (Talents & Spiritual Gifts: What Are the Charismata?) we want to be careful that we don't think about our spiritual gifts as "supercharged" talents. Not should we imagine that our natural talents are somehow "deficient" relative to our spiritual gifts. Each has its own integrity; the challenge is to respect both and to find the balance between them. Otherwise, we risk creating spiritually and/or psychologically unhealthy people and communities.
This might take the form of ordaining to the priesthood a man who while very talented in music or theology or public speaking has no real gift for prayer or preaching or hearing confessions. When this happens the man's ministry remains superficial and is one that fosters in others a merely mechanical or moralistic approach to life in Christ.
Alternatively, imagine a man who is a gifted confessor or preacher but who lacks appropriate social or administrative skills. His sermons are inspiring and not only challenge but instruct people on how to live a deeper life in Christ. In confession he is humble, insightful and forgiving. But if he has to interact with people outside of confession or explain his views to colleagues, or provide practical leadership for the parish council, he simply fails.
Neither man is well-balanced. And both men will foster an eccentricity in the parish and their spiritual children that undermines humility in the short run and in the long run, charity.
(This is not simply a challenge facing clergy. Parish communities can also become quite eccentric. But this is for another time.)
So what to do? How do we find a balance between the grace given in creation (our talents) and the grace given in the sacraments (our spiritual gifts)?
I don't think that either secularism or sectarianism offer an answer. Will we find the answer in neither accomadation nor in simply criticizing the world. We cannot abandon Holy Tradition but neither can assume that the modern world has nothing of positive value to offer us.
Beyond that, I am not sure. But I think Chesterton points for us if not the way than at least the feeling. He writes that "People have fallen into a foolish habit of speaking of orthodoxy as something heavy, humdrum, and safe. There never was anything so perilous or so exciting as orthodoxy." For him orthodoxy is
…sanity: and to be sane is more dramatic than to be mad. It was the equilibrium of a man behind madly rushing horses, seeming to stoop this way and to sway that, yet in every attitude having the grace of statuary and the accuracy of arithmetic. The Church in its early days went fierce and fast with any warhorse; yet it is utterly unhistoric to say that she merely went mad along one idea, like a vulgar fanaticism. She swerved to left and right, so exactly as to avoid enormous obstacles. She left on one hand the huge bulk of Arianism, buttressed by all the worldly powers to make Christianity too worldly. The next instant she was swerving to avoid an orientalism, which would have made it too unworldly.
And all the while, the
…Church never took the tame course or accepted the conventions; the orthodox Church was never respectable. It would have been easier to have accepted the earthly power of the Arians. It would have been easy, in the Calvinistic seventeenth century, to fall into the bottomless pit of predestination. It is easy to be a madman: it is easy to be a heretic. It is always easy to let the age have its head; the difficult thing is to keep one's own. It is always easy to be a modernist; as it is easy to be a snob.
But we must he says the easy temptation of falling
…into any of those open traps of error and exaggeration which fashion after fashion and sect after sect set along the historic path of Christendom — that would indeed have been simple. It is always simple to fall; there are an infinity of angles at which one falls, only one at which one stands. To have fallen into any one of the fads from Gnosticism to Christian Science would indeed have been obvious and tame.
What we must do to avoid falling is to understand that the Christian life, the life of the Church, is a "whirling adventure." It is a "vision [of] the heavenly chariot fl[ying] thundering through the ages." Heresies leave us "sprawling and prostrate," but "the wild truth" of the Gospel leaves us "reeling" but upright.
In Christ,
+Fr Gregory

With Bibao, which is similar a stock market app, you'll be able to: watch exchange rates of Bitcoin or Litecoin on major Chinese virtual currency exchanges and historical charts. trade with any of those exchanges within the app — Bibao doesn't, at least so far, charge transaction-based fees. check your balance (in both BTC and CNY) and trading record. set up and receive price alerts. read news about Bitcoin/Litecoin across the Chinese Web. Screenshots of Bibao for Android Before Bibao, the startup developed a Bitcoin wallet and a web-based trading platform. There have been many exchanges for Bitcoin and other newly emerged digital currencies in China, but Bihang is one of the few developing applications on top of them. Bihang was co-founded in 2013 by Changhao Jiang, former research scientist at Facebook, and Hao Wang, who used to work at Goldman Sachs on transactional technologies. Prior to the founding of Bihang, the two were building their own startups separately, with Jiang working on an online-to-offline service while Wang worked on a mobile health app. Thanks to their matchmaker, Feng Li, a partner at IDG Capital Partners who has led investments in Bitcoin starups like Coinbase and Chinese financial startups like Wacai, the two ended up building a startup together. IDG, of course, has invested in Bihang. And the startup is of the latest batch of Microsoft Accelerator China. This story originally appeared on TechNode.

At first glance it's nearly impossible to tell that British-born model and reality television star Sasha Gardner was born with a serious facial deformity.
Gardner, now 25, was born without her right ear, a condition known as microtia. The Microtia-Congenital Ear Institute estimates that one in every 6,000 to 12,000 newborns is born with only one ear.
In place of an average-looking ear, Gardner was born with what she described to the U.K.'s Daily Mail as a "stump." She was constantly teased by peers who called her "pizza ear" and "alien head." Gardner was not available for comment for this story.
Gardner also had no hearing on her right side -- she was born with no inner ear and no auditory canal -- and due to the lack of an external ear, could not be fitted for a hearing aid, her doctor, David Gault, told ABCNEWS.com.
Before meeting Gault during her late teens, Gardner had reportedly shied away from corrective surgery -- she was turned off by the prospect of being fitted with a prosthetic ear -- an option many living with microtia choose.
But what Gault had to offer Gardner -- and what he eventually performed for her -- was something entirely different. In a procedure known as rib cartilage ear reconstruction, Gault crafted Gardner a new ear from cartilage taken from right above her rib cage.
Sasha Gardner's ear prior to her reconstructive surgery.
There are several ways to reconstruct an ear, and using rib cartilage to form an ear has become the medical profession's preferred method.
"Rib cartilage ear reconstruction has become the gold standard," Dr. Sherill Aston, a N.Y., plastic surgeon, told ABCNEWS.com. "There are lots of nuances to an ear that you have to work out to make an ear that looks normal. No other tissue molds like rib tissue does -- you can cut it strip, fold it and suture it in a precise position."
The procedure is done in several steps, said Aston, who explained that first the cartilage must be harvested from the patient and then a mold of the good ear is made so that the surgeon has a template to follow while constructing the new ear.
A completed reconstructed ear could take several years depending on the length of the patient's healing time.
Aston added that using rib cartilage is a lot safer than other methods, particularly ones that use plastic and synthetic materials, which may not agree with a patient's body as well.
"Synthetic materials have no blood supply in them, and there is a high instance of infection because tissues can't grow into them, and they have a tendency to erode," said Aston. In addition, prosthetic ears can be removed -- they are attached to the head by two posts -- and that is often unappealing to patients.
The outcome of a reconstructed ear varies from patient to patient, and depends on, among other things, the skill of the surgeon and the pliability of the patient's skin.
Sasha Gardner's ear after her reconstructive surgery.
"Plastic surgery is part art and part science," said Aston. "It's like painting a picture -- some people are going to make this thing look better than others and will have the aesthetic judgment. Lots of factors come into play, from the quality and the amount of skin to the deformity the person first presents with."

Yes you are correct, my mistake. PRR in Gecko and HydroQuip packs means temp sensor alarm or failure.

As of yet I have not wired the temp sensor up to the cable and it is still sitting wedged into the circuit board, the prr code has gone , but I wouldn't reccomend this as it only reads the ambient temp under the tub as opposed to the water temp and your water will just heat up until the HL switch kicks in.
My plan is to solder the new temp sensor onto the existing cable and put into the existing metal tube. First you will need to drill out all the old potting compound and cables, then slide your new sensor into the tube with some potting compound sourced from ebay again (about £5). as you have the exisiting plug on the cable it should work...I emphasize should as I've not tried it yet but at least it got rid of the prr code. get some advice from an electrical geek before trying. I'll let you know how I get on when I try it, better to spend £6 at trying to fix it than sourcing a part for £70 that doesn't even fit!

Who the fuck watches a kickass action movie just so they can find some Tumblr shit to complain about?
There's an entire subgenre of trolling called "Social Justice Warriors" that do nothing but watch movies, TV, read books, and stalk people on social media so they can cherry pick stuff to whine about. They're a particularly vile form of Internet troll, focused mostly on Tumblr and Twitter but a lot of them are entitled trust fund kids so there's a significant number of them infesting colleges and starting to latch themselves onto legit businesses.
Symptoms include made up or redefined words ("Racism = prejudice + power, ergo you can't be racist against white people!"), Magical special snowflake pronouns, and the words "problematic" or "toxic" when discussing things they don't like.
Oh, and a Patreon account, because actually getting a job is for cis shitlord scum.

Mens Rights Activists, vilified by the official narrative and openly mocked for having concerns by post-modernist radfems and their sycophants in the media, stage a polite boycott about a movie they dislike.
Militant Women Supremecists, praised as holy saints who can do no wrong by official narrative, openly harass an award winning feminist writer until he has to flee Twitter to avoid the twitter public shaming mob instigated by the white knight moron behind Anita Sarkeesian's con game.
It's the Women are Wonderful effect in action. Fascinating to see, really.
Oh, and Aaron Clarey has a rebuttal video about this mess, which is being ignored as it doesn't fit narrative:
Sorry, Mr. Bryant, your right to display advertisement content on my PC ended around the time you started making the damned things talk, or around when the damned things started redirecting to infected PDFs and browser exploits.
If you guys can't responsibly filter your SWF files to prevent audio and redirects, don't expect to enjoy the privilege of being able to display that content on my screen.
Silly Americans. "Metre" is of course the correct spelling. It rathre annoys me when they write it in that othre mannre. By the way, I love your leathre jacket. Just be careful though in rainy weathre - you might get watre stains.
I'd update to Lolipop if they'd let me -- Nexus 2012 3G here. Still waiting on the update to be pushed.
Where were these assclowns 10 years ago when Microsoft was actively doing evil (and relevant)?
Also, you shine the brass and keep the wastebasket empty.
But what sort of perturbs me is that 'Engineers' aren't just IT types. Where I work, engineers work on and design product. Except for companies that produce IT Products, the IT staff aren't engineers, except in the 'sanitation engineer' sense. So why does the article immediately and only segue into: " Exactly how long should this database field be? " Engineers concern themselves with what type of plastic to produce which components of the product out of, tooling tolerances, production costs, etc. The guy that maintains the CAD files database is a glorified file clerk.
It segues into database concerns because it's specifically talking about software engineers: "Following up on a recent experiment into the status of software engineers versus managers"...
Everyone's getting hung up on the term Engineer in this story, and perhaps we should have that discussion, but the article is very specifically talking about software development and design.
I wonder if the article could have worked with the term "computer programmer" used whenever "software engineer" was.
First off, lets begin with this: The Freedom of Information Act is NOT a fishing lure. It is not designed to request all the emails of a certain employee, nor should it. The FOIA is designed for targeted requests for specific information, not blanket demands so conspiracy theorists can try to dig for "evidence." The NSA should have ignored this FOIA act or pointed that out.
Second off, this story (and the multitude of Greenwald/Snowden cult of personality reposters) is missing the most important thing in the NSA's response, the last sentence:
"For your information, there are no emails indicating that Mr. Snowden contacted agency officials to raise concerns about NSA programs."
That's the real story here. The FOIA request was trying to show that Snowden tried to warn the NSA about abuses but they ignored it, the fake story Greenwald and Matthew Keys are trying to push is that the NSA is somehow hiding it, the real story is that Snowden, Libtard hero, never even tried to whistleblow.
He's no patriot, he's just a cowardly little shit.
So Whatsupwiththat, JoNova, Climate Depoe, and Climate Etc. and climate comments from Lubos Motl are all crackpots as well, right?
"there is no debate" said the guy who does not want to debate.......idiot.
Whatsupwiththat -- or rather, Wattsupwiththat I presume -- is Anthony Watt's website, and yeah, he's a crackpot and professional grifter. He has no academic or scientific training, his arguments are either debunked climate denier talking points being regurgitated or "hey, it's cold outside, LOL" type circumstantial evidence - hardly worth an eyeroll. He adds nothing to the conversation but he does keep getting speaking gigs and advertiser bucks, so hey, grifters gonna grift.
JoNova is Joanne Codling (aka Joanne "I watch too much Star Trek" Nova)'s blog. She's funded by the Heartland Institute and the Science and Public Policy Institute -- in other words, she's a professional shill for professional climate deniers. Oh, and she's not a scientist (she's a failed TV talking head) and thus her opinion on a scientific fact like global warming is utterly useless.
Climate "Depoe," unless I'm not seeing the site, is one I've already covered - Climate Depot.
ClimateEtc is Judith Curry's blog, and while she's a climatologist at Georgia Tech, she's also a loon. For example, she heavily cites and defends the Wegman Report, and later admitted she never read it. I doubt she'll make it another 5-10 years at Georga Tech before joining Richard Lindzen as a professional crank for some Heartland Institute shell company.
Oh, and Lubo Motl? He's a failed string theory physicist, not a climatologist, and his only claim to fame was being hired at Harvard and fired for being a raging douchebag. You can tell, mostly because his blog reads like something from the GNAA or the Yahoo News comments section. And don't get me started on his shitting over half the science blogs on the internet in the comments section -- I guess when you're a failed PHD student who hasn't done any actual work in science since 2007 you have lots of time to troll blogs.
So yeah, I will repeat it. There is no debate. Your sources are crackpots, loons, cranks, and professional grifters, and at this point, I'm willing to go further -- you don't get to "debate" scientific fact. There is no climate change debate. It's real, it's man made, and it's the biggest threat we as a people will likely ever face.
The only debate left is what we do about it. Deniers are just idiots on par with Anti-vaxxers and should have their brains taken away by social services.
Not an ad hominem fallacy. Just pointing out some rather severe bias.
... global warming'...
But I'm amazed these retards actually used the phrase 'global warming', since the new accepted LIE is to use the deliberately misleading phrase 'climate change', which is MEANT to mean "catastropic man-made global warming', and is IMPLIED every time they use it...
Just go to www.climatedepot.com and start reading the truth about this ridiculous 'global warming' scam. These 'scientists' are just shysters in it for the money, and my, doesn't it show.
ClimateDepot is a shell website created by the "Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow," a think tank funded by crackpot Richard Mellon Scaife (you might remember him from every fake Clinton scandal ever) and Exxon Mobil.
It's ran by Marc Morano, an ex-producer of Rush Limbaugh's show, which should tell you about as much as you need to know about it's journalistic ethics.
In short, ClimateDepot is a fake website designed to sucker idiots like you into believing there's some sort of "other side" to the climate change "debate" -- when in reality there isn't. But then again, 90% of the Climate Deniers I have met are in it just to piss off liberals in some sort of psychotic ignorant tribalism, so... perhaps I waste my breath.
What about this slashdot entry? Will it also not appear in google search results?
Until they change the law to force Google to remove ALL Slashdot results to "ensure complete compliance with the citizen's rights."
Heck, I'm waiting for a US version of this law to allow companies to issue Google Gag orders against bad things they've done. Want to learn about how Exxon Mobil spilled oil? Not on the Corporate Internet, you don't!
So they're making Spore 2? Or maybe Minecraft: Corporate Sellout edition? We've heard this song and dance before.
Of course, since I've been playing Roguelikes for decades, literally nothing in the hype train up there really gets my attention. Wake me when they have something with 1/10th the complexity of Dwarf Fortress.

Gear Question
MMO vs. MMO II
If Jon Webb can respond,...
MMO vs. MMO II
If Jon Webb can respond, great. Otherwise anyone feel free to take a shot:
1. What are the fundamental differences between the MMO and the MMO II?
2. I'd like to use them for light hiking/ intermediate mountain biking. Would they be effective in those arenas?
I cannot speak to the difference between the MMO and MMO II, but I can provide experience from 9 months of using the MMOII.
I purchased them for running on gravel roads while I was stuck on an American outpost in Afghanistan. They are pretty heavy compared to most other shoes I've worn, including the Montrail Hardrocks, but for running on large gravel they were perfect. I have since used them on all light hiking trips I have taken with less than 40lbs on my back. With the plastic shank I think they are pretty stiff and I would wear them mountain biking if I didn't use clipless pedals.
Hope that helps.
I have both the MMO and the MMO II and I can't see any difference whatsoever between the two. Love them both. I have done a couple of 10 mile trail hikes with a 10 pound pack and have had no issues.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1 (UPI) — New York police said they found a vertical marijuana farm, taking up four floors of a five-story Bronx apartment building.
Police broke down the door of the building Monday and discovered 600 potted marijuana plants filling the top four floors of the building in the Morris Park neighborhood, the New York Post reported, as well as sodium vapor growing lights casting a yellow glow, and modifications to the ventilation system.
"They were using enough electricity, grow lights and such to power an entire city block," a law enforcement source was quoted as saying.
The newspaper said the 1,500 pounds of pot removed from the building had a street value estimated at $7.5 million. Three men were arrested on drug dealing and possession charges.

Obama: It's Time TO GO!
Image via Wikipedia
It is time to go out and get some fresh air…
Obama woke up early last morning and was ready to go outside to get some fresh air and his daily portion of healthy exercise.
Mister President left the White House, like always with a big smile on his face and confidence that was shining from all of his body.
There is nothing better than early breakfast, hard exercise and some Michael Jackson's songs in his ear in the spring, he once said.
After some workout jogging and relaxing, it is time for hard work in the office.
Making mayor decisions that will affect not only millions of Americans but billions of other citizens of the planet is not an easy task.
But, judging on what we have seen, it seems that our president's morning rituals are sure helping him in his job.
Being president is not only about making big decisions and leading the country.
It is also endurance test.
And nobody want to see President Obama don't make it to the second term.
While some people are attacking Obama, most of the citizens are still cheering their president, the leader…
Obama is enjoying support of millions from around the world and is still the most popular politician in the world…

ASH—You might say having a baby is what spurred Katherine and Billy Ingram's new venture into raising strawberries this year.
Indirectly, it's true.
For the past 19 years, they've been in the plant nursery business, Katherine said last week on May Day, standing at the Ingrams' Waccamaw River Farm & Nursery on Kingtown Road in Ash.
For years, they drove delivery trucks, carting plants cultivated at their nursery to chain stores.
Letters to the editor are a popular feature of most newspapers.
Readers get the chance to voice opinions on a plethora of concerns, from local to national to global, or just want to inform readers of events of information.
Before I became "Mom" and had other responsibilities, I spent several Friday nights during the local Relay For Life sleeping underneath a funeral home tent or in my car.
A marriage of poor taste and pure stupidity unfolded over Lower Manhattan on Monday when Air Force One buzzed Ground Zero.
As it flew low over Manhattan, Air Force One—sans Mr. President, so I guess it was just a really expensive Boeing 747—was tailed by two fighter jets.
People panicked, evacuated buildings and frantically called 911 in a state of what I can only imagine was sheer terror—evoking the frightening and permanent memories of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
As I peek around the corner of his bedroom, I see my son, Levi, sleeping soundly. He's stretched out in this crib, with his arm around his stuffed dog.
I dread the battle ahead of me. I know Levi will cry and scream as I wake him from his peaceful sleep and get him dressed for day care. But it's what I have to do. The fit will only last a short time. As soon as we are out the door, he will be happy again. That's because he knows he's going to day care.
Numerous pundits on the Internet, the letters to the editor pages and the 24-hour-cable networks like to question reporters' biases, ask where we get our facts and basically, accuse us of being shills or liars.
Some of us need it. Sometimes, reporters don't report. Some repeat talking points or ignore important issues in favor of personalities and scandals.
Forgive me for being morbid, but I think about death and dying probably more often than I should. It's an unfortunate learned trait, picked up from a mother who experienced too much death too soon in life.
After watching her mother, father, oldest brother and other relatives die from cancer she was convinced some day she too would experience the slow, painful battle with the disease. But her death was neither slow nor painful; she died suddenly—and very unexpectedly—in a car crash.
It's that most wonderful time of year when people weary of taxes, the economy and goings-on in Cala-clash can and should venture outside themselves and soak up some spring things going on in Brunswick County.
I know I did that just this past Saturday, when I was invited to be a judge in the Calabash Fire Department's first Show and Shine Car Show.
If the fire department hired me for my car-judging expertise, they had asked the right woman.
Any car that looks pretty, has cruise control and a great stereo always gets my vote.
Spending time away from the office for a week was a great way to recharge my batteries.
I spent most of the time with my 6-year-old in Charlotte visiting my brother, sister-in-law and 11-month-old nephew. It was a delight, especially since he started walking while we were there.
My daughter Taryn and I also made a visit to Discovery Place, where she saw a mad scientist blow things up, made all sorts of scientific discoveries and watched her first IMAX movie, "Fly Me to the Moon," (not a great movie for adults, but she liked it.)
I often hear parents talking about how their son or daughter has racked up a huge cell phone bill from excessive calling and texting. I even heard one parent say a child had sent 30,000 text messages in a month.
Well, my son has yet to send 30,000 texts in a month, but he can text and call people. He's even managed to access the mobile Web feature on my phone. While I have yet to get an astronomical phone bill, I know it's just a matter of time. After all, he's already figured this much out at the tender age of 18 months.

Important Gem 1878 Morgan Dollar Pattern, Judd-1551, Ex: Bass1878 $1 Morgan Dollar, Judd-1551, Pollock-1724, 1726, 1728, R.7, PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. Ex: Harry Bass Collection. The obverse is essentially the same as the adopted design, while the reverse differs primarily by having three olive leaves to the lower left of the eagle, rather than a cluster as seen on the regular issue dies. Also, the bottom of each of the eagle's wings has a "notch" that is not seen on regular production coins. Struck in copper with a reeded edge.
Two events came together to produce the Morgan dollar, as it was first struck in 1878. The first was the legislation requiring that the government purchase millions of ounces of "newly mined" silver in the form of the Bland-Allison Act. In effect, this act helped subsidize Comstock silver and it also provided an outlet in the form of silver dollars (that no one needed or wanted). The second event was the striking of numerous patterns in 1877. According to the catalog description of this piece from the Bass Collection, when the production of silver dollars became an inevitability in 1878, the Mint "reviewed the illustrious suite of pattern coins that had been made in the previous year, 1877, and selected a Liberty Head motif and perched eagle half dollar produced by young George T. Morgan, an English immigrant who had signed on at the Mint in 1876."
A significant amount of original cherry-red color remains on each side of this lovely Gem. Iridescent blue, brown, and orange-red are also seen in selected areas. A few light flecks of carbon are seen on each side, but these do not detract from the overall desirability of this important transitional pattern.
Ex: Brinton T. Schorer to Harry Bass, May 3, 1973; Bass I (Bowers and Merena, 5/99), lot 1276, where it brought $9,200.

Adrian Beltre hit a tiebreaking two-run homer off Angels closer Ernesto Frieri in the ninth inning, and the Texas Rangers dealt yet another blow to Los Angeles' fading playoff hopes with a 3-1 victory Thursday night. Yu Darvish (16-9) held the Angels to four hits and struck out nine in a scintillating eight-inning duel with Zack Greinke, who gave up five hits and struck out eight. Beltre then rewarded Darvish with his 34th homer to left field off Frieri (3-2), who wasted a phenomenal start by Greinke for the second time in six days. Texas (89-60) improved the AL's best record and stayed four games ahead of Oakland (85-64) in the AL West by taking two of three from the Angels. Los Angeles (81-69) dropped 4 1/2 games behind the Athletics and Baltimore in the AL wild-card standings. Oakland beat Detroit earlier, and the Orioles were idle. Joe Nathan gave up a two-out double to Albert Pujols in the ninth, but got Kendrys Morales on a fly to finish his 34th save. Beltre missed Wedn...

Orange Coconut Cream Pudding Recipe


text:
1.) Minnesota Vikings @ Pittsburgh Steelers – It's going to be pretty hard for me to pull for a Brett Favre led team but I know ever time I have done so he's been able to let me down. The Steelers will break through that line this week and wear down Favre early. Expect to see the Steeler offense really tested against this D and it creates an interesting matchup w/ the Steeler D vs. the Viking run game.
2.) San Diego Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs - It will be closer than it seems. Kansas City has come on as of late and they've had two good drafts - this is important because now is the time the young guys start o get the hang of it. Still have to go with the Chargers here though.
3.) Indianapolis Colts @ St. Louis Rams - Colts by a million. I wouldn't be surprised to see a slaughter similar to what we saw in Foxboro this past week.
4.) Chicago Bears @ Cincinnati Bengals – Good game here. I'll go Bears. Think the defense will step up and Cutler will shine coming off of a loss. I just trust Chicago more than Cinci.
5.) Green Bay Packers @ Cleveland Browns – Packers walk easily here. The Browns are a mess through and through on offense. Their D is not that strong either.
6.) New England Patriots @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Not too much to talk about beyond what we already have. What favors Tampa is that this will be a run first type of atmosphere but the Patriots are getting them at the right time.
7.) San Francisco 49ers @ Houston Texans: Another decent matchup. I love what Mike Singletary has brought to this 49er team. I think they will rise to the occasion on the road. Texans are getting better as the year goes on but I just don't see it happening this week.
8.) NY Jets @ Oakland Raiders – Good point in the season for the Jets to get the Raiders – the only issue for them is that the Oakland defense actually looks legit right now. I do think the NYJ line will rise to the occasion. Seymour has dominated Ferguson since he's been in the league and the familiarity works in the defense's favor. I'll still go with the Jets if only for the fact that Oakland's offense is a joke.
9.) Buffalo Bills @ Carolina Panthers – two coaches on the hot seat, two QB's looking at their last days at the healm. Carolina will come out on top at home against a Bills team struggling with consistency on offense.
10.) New Orleans Saints @ Miami Dolphins – The Saints are just too good right now though this will be a good test of their run defense. Will be interesting to watch for scouting purposes but not for the outcome – Saints by a lot.
11.) Atlanta Falcons @ Dallas Cowboys – Could be a closer game than expected. I would look for Demarcus Ware to come out of hibernation this week. Still, the Falcons are looking like an incomplete team whereas the Cowboys are struggling to come together.
12.) Arizona Cardinals @ NY Giants – They're billing this as a matchup of the past two NFC Champs but it really doesn't boil down that way. The Giant will run right through the Cardinals and I believe Warner will be running for his life on the other side of he ball.
13.) Philadelphia Eagles @ Washington Redskins – Both teams are sort of disappointments but the Redskins are disappointments who already expected to be bad. Expect The Eagle's D to look like the Pats offense looked this past week.

Florida Supreme Court: State needs 63 new judges
Florida needs 63 new judges and one new appeals court judge to deal with staff cutbacks and courtrooms clogged by foreclosure cases, the state Supreme Court said Thursday.
The court noted that it's not as bad as it could be because crime is down and a drop in juvenile delinquency filings is expected with changes being made by state juvenile justice officials.
The court also noted that lawmakers provided extra money last year that allowed the courts to bring in more judges, and that they're also benefitting from getting money from a national mortgage settlement agreement.
But there's still a need for more judges — though the court acknowledged it's not like there's plenty of money to go around.
"We observe that state revenues, while gradually improving, continue to lag, thereby creating competition between funding new judgeships and attending to other critical state needs," the court said in its opinion certifying the need for additional judges.
"Workload associated with the residential mortgage foreclosure crisis continues to impede disposition times and rates in our circuit civil divisions," the court said.
But a bigger problem may be that recent cuts in court staff have meant more work for judges.
"Our judges continue to absorb the work previously performed by case managers, law clerks, magistrates, and other supplemental support staff lost in the budget reductions of recent years," the court said.
The court, after examining case data and judicial workload, and looking at a three year average need, said it was officially certifying the need for 16 new circuit judges and 47 county court judges.
The court also said The Second District Court of Appeal needs one more judge, although the DCA had asked for two.

Cox, IJ; Roy, S; Hingorani, SL; (1996) Dynamic histogram warping of image pairs for constant image brightness. In: IEEE International Conference on Image Processing. (pp. 366 - 369).
Full text not available from this repository.
An examination of the images contained in the SRI JISCT stereo database revealed that the constant image brightness assumption in computer vision is often false. In this paper, experimental results show that image histograms are closely matched after dynamic histogram warping (DHW), especially when both histograms are modified simultaneously. DHW is also capable of removing simple constant additive and multiplicative biases without derivative operations, thereby avoiding amplification of high frequency noise. It is demonstrated that DHW can improve the estimates from stereo and optical flow estimators.

I don't like running. I don't like gyms. I love the outdoors. I'm not into bicycling. I love meeting people. So, I combine the love of outdoors and meeting people, and that works well for walking and hiking.
Sometimes I focus too much of my time (in my mind) pre-occupied with needing to "undo" what I did (ate too much or too many bad things).
Every year I get older, the bigger effect the "bad" things have on me. We went bowling Saturday Night, but I made us a roasted chicken (with no nitrates or nitrites) salad with nuts, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, carrots, broccoli, etc. to eat before we went so we wouldn't gouge on nachos/chicken fingers/etc. I was going to get a Dr. Pepper (my achille's, but I rarely drink more than 4 oz. at a time), but when she ordered a rootbeer float, I followed up with a blackberry milkshake. That milkshake will take days/a week to "undo".
I'm 20 pounds overweight, so I'm not even close to where I should be. My lungs are in good shape, my heart is good, but I have too much body fat. 5', 10"; 185; 26% (55 years old) I was 24% last week. I weigh myself at the same time every morning. I'd like to be 170; 20% body fat right now. That would be very good health for me. I got down to 172/22 14 months ago, but went up to the low-190's and 26 for the Winter. Too much "volume" and late-night eating.
It's really pretty simple for me. Get to bed earlier and I avoid the late-night eating while getting a greater percentage of the sleep I need. But, there's just so much I feel I need to get done, I try to get them done at night after everyone goes to bed. I'm the first one up (and am gone before anyone else gets up). I just have to let things go.

Worker Impact on the Change Process in a Food Processing Plant
Glenn, Thomas M.
MetadataShow full item record
SubjectTotal quality management--United States; Industrial management--Employee participation--United States; Industrial relations--United States
The problem. Quality management consultants and change experts generally agree that change must come from the top of an organization. This viewpoint may constitute a fatal flaw in attempts at workplace reorganization in America. This study views the process from a management and worker perspective, looking for evidence that change may be a worker initiated and sustained process. Methodology. This study is a naturalistic inquiry into the change process at a food processing plant in the Midwestern United States. The enterprise is attempting to reorganize production processes in order to improve the quality of finished products. The researcher is engaged in facilitating, documenting, and analyzing the change process. Findings. The researcher engaged in a facilitated, interactive change process with the union and management at the study site, observing, participating, and documenting a wide variety of activities which surfaced claims, concerns, and issues, and which resulted in an integrated statement of understanding regarding the change process and actions associated with that process. Conclusion. This study confirmed that the use of hermeneutic circles is an effective method of surfacing differences in perspective, experience, motivation, and commitment to a change process. This method was expanded by a storytelling process which surfaced similarities and common ground allowing participants to engage in the development of joint constructions, which led to shared planning and action. The researcher's human instrument, based on a Rogerian counseling approach, created an environment which allowed both union and management to develop new constructions of their relationship.

About Miraculins Inc.
Miraculins is a medical diagnostic company focused on acquiring, developing and commercializing non-invasive tests for unmet clinical needs.
