New-age queens
Bollywood's obsession with its heroes is well documented. The industry has grown up believing that women can't make a poster or sell a movie.
This year, the myth was shattered. Be it Dedh Ishqiya's sassy Munira, the troubled Veera of Highway, Hasee Toh Phasee's misfit genius Meeta, Sunny Leone in Ragini MMS 2 or Rani, the Queen, the year belongs to our pataka guddis. In Queen, we also met up with free-spirited Bohemian single mom Vijaylakshmi, who is fearless and unapologetic about her choices. She has wild dance moves, hysterical outbursts and a penchant for belching when she's drunk. Gotta love a girl like that.
Rise of the planet of the young
The biggest hits of the season — Ek Villain and Two States — do not star a 40-plus star whose last name is Khan. Instead, Sidharth Malhotra, Riteish Deshmukh and Arjun Kapoor entered the Rs 100-crore-club in style. Varun Dhawan's Main Tera Hero, Tiger Shroff's Heropanti and the Ranveer Singh-Arjun Kapoor starrer, Gunday, also clicked. Interestingly, even though compared to the first half of 2013, business dropped about 8 per cent this year, the industry seems pleased that the audience has given its approval to younger heroes. The young ones are putting up a big fight with the big daddies. Sure, Akshay Kumar's Holiday and Salman Khan's Jai Ho also made money, but it was a whimper of a profit rather than the expected bang. The change is here, folks.
Reality bites
Bollywood dared to tell bigger stories but toned down the telling. The big and the gaudy made way for the personal and the minimalistic. In Highway, Imtiaz Ali used a road trip to underline a kidnapped girl's journey of self-discovery that enables her to confront the monster who abused her as a child. Abhishek Chaubey's Dedh Ishqiya kept it subtle but the lesbian undertones added the dedh to the Ishq. Filmistaan married Bollywood with the India-Pakistan issue. In Queen, a jilted bride goes solo on her honeymoon to Paris and finds herself. Then there was Hawaa Hawaai, which asked tough questions about social inequality and aspirations, wherein a young chaiwalla wants to fly on his rollerblades, just like Krrish.
Babydoll sone di
The song might have made Sunny Leone a legit Bollywood star but Ekta Kapoor owns the words. As the busiest producer on the circuit, Ekta made a killing of all her four films — Shaadi Ke Side Effects, Main Tera Hero, Ragini MMS 2, Ek Villain — and proved that she's the asli sone di babydoll. On screen, we got ourselves a new sweetheart and she goes by the name of Alia Bhatt. Karan Johar's protégée wisely dropped her Kareena Kapoor-Pooh hangover and graduated with top honours in Highway and Two States. Low on affectations, Alia's naturalness is refreshing. The camera clearly loves her. She has a certain je ne sais quoi and looks fetching with her co-stars. The woman is here to stay and it will be worth seeing how she picks her next few acting assignments. Parineeti Chopra …continued »

text: There is a tendency among elite opinion makers to believe that debt accrued while gaining a college degree is "good debt" that isn't problematic because, as the thought goes, those with college degrees tend to make enough money to recoup their debt over a lifetime. Student debt is supposedly an equalizer -- a way for students to gain access to credit in order to get a degree that will give them an equal chance to enter the middle class and achieve the American Dream. Sadly, like many pundit platitudes, this assertion is grounded in fantasy, not fact.

James McLachlan, an unrepentant political liberal but a relatively decent guy nonetheless, shared this earlier today:
Fans of H. P. Lovecraft will appreciate it, and those familiar with Lovecraft and with the standard logo of the Republican Party
will get the joke.
But Jim's Cthulhu logo also puts me in mind of this YouTube video. Which could, I suppose, be viewed as a send-up of the Mormons and similar proselytizing groups.

Meaning that if you turn off specular in Doom3, you end up with a game that looks the same as the other two, with similar performance."
Just because engines have the same features doesn't mean they perform those features as well. Pre-Release IW did indeed have all the general features of the D3 engine in name, but D3 has defacto superior quality of those effects. Also the polycounts in D3 are WAY higher than those games.
Depends on the engine take the quake 3 engine now and put in per pixel lighting and all shadows casted are volumetric you will end up with Doom 3. The Q3 engine can also handle the polygon counts too. The reason for the rewrite was probably to make the code more portable and easier for others to read.
The Source engine is very similiar to the Doom 3 engine as both have the same inharent restrictions because they are both built on a BSP tree.
The new revolutionary engines are Stalker and Crytek, this is why both these engine can do indoors equally well as Source and Doom 3, but when it comes to outdoor rendering they are unmatched. They don't use BSP trees. The base engine for terrain rendering uses either octtrees or polysoups. By using these methods the programming of geometric complexities increase quite a bit.

Re: How do you make your luggage unique?
Hey, that's great. I really need to find myself one of those. I used to collect pins from all the places I visited that I had stuck to the top of my pack (mostly for sentimental reasons rather than identification). Really wasn't the smartest move. They all broke off before or after somehow pricking me.

STAGE TUBE: Mel Gibson Wants to do KING LEAR on Stage; Weighs in on Shia LaBeouf
As BroadwayWorld previously reported, troubled actor Shia Labeouf entered a rehabilitation facility following his disruptive night at Broadway's Cabaret. LaBeouf was escorted out of Roundabout's production ofCabaret at Studio 54 last Thursday evening during the show's intermission in handcuffs. The 28-year-old was reportedly smoking inside the theater and engaging in other disruptive behavior, police said. When he was asked to leave, he refused and then threatened the officers and people on the sidewalk outside. He was charged with two counts of disorderly conduct and one count of criminal trespassing.
Now Mel Gibson, who has had to deal with his own share of troubles in the spotlight, has weighed in on LaBeouf in a recent interview with New York Post. He told NYP: "When I see someone like Shia LaBeouf with the bag on his head and stuff, my heart goes out to the poor guy. I think he's suffering in some way."
Gibson also reveals that he'd love to do some stage work in the future. When asked if he'd consider doing Shakespeare, Gibson replied: "Sure, yeah! Shakespeare is great stuff. Maybe it's about time for King Lear, while I still have the energy to rage."

Right. You're more worried about the fact that Werty got it wrong, had a mistaken interpretation, implied something that wasn't true... than the idea that what he was LYING about should not be the kind of thing that should be bothered about to begin with...
The problem is not that this stupid ****, Wertham, was "mistaken" (LYING). The problem is that he thought it was a good LIE to tell in the way of express condemnation.

2001 Volkswagen Beetle Q&A
2001 Volkswagen Beetle Question: My car loses power, the epc light comes on, then it loses most of its power
My car loses power (when i am on the gas pedal, it starts pulsing/jerking around), and sometimes, not all the time (i believe it would everytime if i kept driving), the epc light comes on, then it loses most of its power (some sort of system that saves the car ultimately). If i turn the car off and sit for a while, it goes away (again depending on how long a drive it for).This happened to be a couple of months ago, and i brought it to Garvey(VW dealer). It tripped a couple of codes...they didn't know what was wrong,so they reset them. Ended up bringing it back next day, they called aorund and no one knew. They cleaned the grounds and that worked...up until a couple weeks ago, it started off slow and began happening everytime i drove the car. I brought it back, it tripped the same codes, plus 2 more! This time it tripped a throttle body code. They still didn't know what to do (didn't feel safe using my money to guess on what to fix...even tho i got slammed twice already to find out that they didn't know what to do). We picked the car up, and they told us, after sitting in the parking lot all day, it runs crapy and the EPC light is on right from the start. PLUS, now my check engine light is on (it was NOT on when it went there) Does anyone have any suggestions? We were thinking about puting a whole new throttle body system in the car, but it is $600, so if there is a cheaper solution, i would love that =] Thank You! - jlluse

Answer 1
There is definitely something worn out in your EPC system. I would also check your engine computer. You need to get your car to a good VW independent shop. The Throttle Body codes are common on VW with EPC and this usually means that the Electronic Throttle Body needs replacing and reprogramming. This is common on VW and Audi. Did you have a dealer put in the Throttle Body or did you do it your self? And I guess the shop that you took it to did not do a very good inspection of the basics, i.e. vacuum leaks, scan the car etc. They should have seen the lean condition in the scan data. But it sounds like they did not even do this. I am glad that your car is fixed but this is really a shame that the vacuum leaks, etc were not repaired. I ahev never seen a vacuum leak set EPC codes, they usually set P0171 (system too lean) - dandd
Answer 2
I have a vw jetta i does the same thing as yours the problem to it is the throttle i bet if you put it on the car will run as new or you can just buy the sensor to it its about $50 on ebay its just the cables of the throttle burnted up buy the sensor and the throttle is fine - Visitor
Answer 4
we replaced the pressure regulator hose, and now a year later, all is still good! =] - Visitor
Answer 5
My 05 Jetta has had 2 throttle bodies replaced. And now my check engine light is on and I have a 'vacuum leak'. I refuse to go back to the dealership; what a rip off. I have my mechanic looking into it but it has taken him nearly 2 weeks to decipher the codes, replace sensors, change plugs, coils...with still no fix! My suggestion is one i am going to heed myself...never buy another Volkwagon. - Visitor
Answer 7
Well I own a 2001 1.8t wolfsburg and it sucks like every other VW other people I know have owned(key word...OWNED)they sold got rid of them which I wish I could have done. Anyway I had and still have trouble with my throttle body all the time and all you can do is take the main hose off and spray the inside down with carb cleaner.....if the sensor reads wrong it will throw codes for the throttle peddle, the epc, and your breaks don't want to work properly. My mechanic told me to just spray it out, because VW has no way of correcting this problem. You can replace the TB and it will start to do the same thing again over time....they are prone to this junk and the VW company doesn't care. My mechanic only works on VW and has done this for many years...I had been going to him when I had my first VW bettle(1972) I am now 36 and still go to him for all my problems. This however is the last VW I will ever own!!!! - Krik
Answer 8
I have a 2012 Polo Vivo - had the same symptoms. EPC light comes on - car looses power. Took it to a Bosch Auto Electrical Centre. They found a small crack/leak in the intake-manufold (close to the throttle-body). It's NOT a sensor/wiring/electronic gas pedal/throttle-body problem. It's a minor leak at the intake-manufold or leaks by small pipes connected to the intake-manufold. Bosch technician used sealing glue - patched the small leak/crack - reset on diagnostics - had the car back to 100% condition within hours and cost me next to nothing. Very impressed - have had no problems with dreaded EPC light since then. Car runs like a dream. Hope this is some usefull info. :o) - LillianvNiekerk
Answer 9
Same exact issue here, the EPC light and check engine lights came on after I accelerated a bit hard in traffic. I have an 09 VW CC Turbo with just over 60k miles. Had the manifold intake gasket and flapper replaced at 45k with a carbon cleanout conducted at the same time. I was sure my issue would be related, but turned out it was the #3 spark plug and coil that were bad (P0303). I have a feeling though that when I accelerated maybe it blew some gunk into the plug. Probably didn't even need the coil. The repair was completed by a local franchise service center for $214, which included one replacing all four plugs ($47.96), the coil on #3 ($79) and labor of $87.20. They wanted to complete a throttle body cleaning for $119, but I declined. - vwnissan
Answer 10
I own a 2003 Passat. I can drive about (3ishkm/6-8 mins) and my EPC trips. What I can tell is that the EPC trip inhibits the use of 1st gear. Thats why breaking is harder and less smooth. You'll also notice that your lowest speed idle is way faster then when the EPC is not tripped. The engine doesnt seem to be getting enough sustance to keep the engine running because I ALSO did a test where in the morning after the EPC trip clears off, I started my vehicle and just let it run, I park on a slight incline. Like I expected the vehicle just up and stalled right around the 6-8 min mark. If I was driving it would of been a lose of power but since the engine is still running it keeps on going. Anyways, no advice here on repairs that were made yet, starting to research what is the best and thought Id pass along my observations. - Dreamer33
Answer 11
we have had the same problem with two different jettas and we have found that the pcv tubes are broken. they go under the intake manifold and they are a part of the crankcase ventilation system, look into that and replace the fuel pressure regulator hose if it is kinked or old. - arbaiza11
Answer 12
We share a common problem. I am beyond frustrated and have even written to Germany with all my faults, lack of interest from them. I have had an "exhaust workshop" bleeping at me, loss of compression (3 cylinders running only) and EPC wording with "engine workshop" bleep. I own a 2002 VW Polo 1400 16valve. We have had 3 garages in Christchurch, New Zealand put her on their diagnostic machine and the following has been tried or done: Plug 1 and 2 swopped; New coil on plug 1, fault remained; 2 fuel injectors replaced; Engine temperature sensor replaced; Petrol filter, fanbelt, battery, all plugs and coils replaced; Valves recut and reseated and a new Oxygen sensor fitted. By now I could have bought a new Toyota! My wee car seems to have lost the hiccuping but exhaust workshop light bleeps at me still!??? - exvwfan

The party-line, 54-44 vote clears the last obstacle to Senate approval of a measures aimed at preventing a government shutdown on Tuesday.
The Republican-run House had included the Obamacare language in its version of the shutdown bill at the insistence of conservatives.
A small group of Senate conservatives tried but failed to stop the Senate from considering the bill. They argued their strategy would have kept Democrats from removing the Obamacare provision.
Still unclear is whether Congress will approve legislation preventing a shutdown by Tuesday.
House GOP leaders have yet to determine how to win enough conservative support to pass a new bill.

Lovable Goofball!!
Hi! I've been sitting here trying to come up with some witty intro, but my creativity has escaped me so here goes: I love to laugh and I've been told I have a bit of a guy's sense of humor. I'm a little shy when you first meet me, but once I get to know you, I'm pretty outgoing and won't hesitate to tell you what I think. I am very sweet, lovable and warm. I'm extremely empathetic and will do anything for those I love. I'm also a very forgiving person. If I care about you, I will forgive almost anything, but I won't let you walk all over me. I'm looking for a honest, grounded, communicative, loyal, flexible guy with a great sense of humor and who loves his family. I like someone who has a kind and genuine heart, but doesn't let people walk all over them. I'm equal parts adventure seeker and couch bum, so someone who is active, but also enjoys just relaxing, watching movies, and doing nothing is right up my alley. I'm kind of a goof ball, so I need someone who enjoys being silly or at least someone who enjoys being around someone who's silly. I'm looking for someone who wants a committed long term relationship. With that said, let's get to know each other and see where it goes. Douchelords need not apply.
Coffee and conversation , Cooking , Dining out , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Playing cards , Religion/Spiritual , Travel/Sightseeing , Wine tasting
Aerobics, Bowling, Dancing, Running, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Cats
I like Dogs, Horses
I'm a sucker for guys who like cats. There's just something intangible about cat loving guys that makes them different. My guy has to at least tolerate cats as I have one.

I like to relax and take it easy, but I also enjoy working out, traveling and finding random new things to do in my area. I'm rather easy going and adventurous so I'm up for pretty much anything. I also love to waterski and ride horses.
I'm a huge dork and probably just re-read Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Senate joins House in passing state budget
On the fourth try, the Senate joined the House on Wednesday in approving an $85 billion state budget for the next two years.
One Democrat, Sen. Charles Colgan of Manassas, joined all 20 Senate Republicans in voting for the budget bill, HB 1301. The House had approved the measure, 77-19, on Tuesday.
A day earlier, Colgan and all other Democrats present voted against HB 1301, complaining that it lacked funding for the second phase of the Dulles Rail extension to Loudoun County. That prevented the budget from getting the 21 Senate votes it needed to pass.
Republicans applauded Colgan for his change of heart, and they criticized Democrats for their budget tactics.
"After two months of obstructionism punctuated by one last-ditch attempt by the leaders of the Senate Democratic Caucus to derail the budget process, the General Assembly has fulfilled its constitutional duty to pass a budget," said Senate Majority Leader Thomas Norment of Williamsburg.
Norment said the budget wouldn't have passed "without the statesmanship of Sen. Chuck Colgan. He demonstrated again today why he is one of Virginia's most respected leaders."
Sen. Walter Stosch, R-Henrico, who chairs the Senate Finance Committee, said Wednesday "was a good day for the Senate and a great day for Virginians."
"The budget we approved provides much needed funding increases for K-12 public education and for our state-supported colleges and universities," Stosch said. "It also provides critical funding for transportation needs across the state, our local governments, health-care services, our state parks and all operations of state government."
Democrats said that by blocking the budget, the party forced Republicans to restore cuts in government services.
"The governor proposed taking $100 million from public education and public safety to finance transportation, slashed the health-care safety net and cut millions from the cost of competing funding for hard-to-staff positions in public school," said Delegate Mark Sickles of Franconia, who chairs the House Democratic Caucus.
"While this is not the budget that we would have crafted, it is a vast improvement over the original proposal."
The budget will take effect July 1. Republican officials warned that by holding up the budget process, Democrats were risking a state government shutdown and preventing local governments from preparing their own spending plans.
"We said on several occasions that this budget would come in due course," said the Democratic leader in the House, Delegate David Toscano of Charlottesville. "With a budget in place, our schools and local governments will be able to adopt their own budgets well in advance of the close of the fiscal year."
Sickles said Democrats "remain hopeful that we can find a solution to the funding dilemma on the Dulles Toll Road and provide toll relief to the families who will face high skyrocketing tolls without additional assistance from the commonwealth."
On Tuesday, citing a recent study, Senate Minority Leader Richard Saslaw of Fairfax said the Dulles Metrorail project was vital to his region.
"In the 'Top Five Public Works in America,' the No. 1 project was the Metrorail to Dulles. It has already caused major things to happen such as job creation, which totals about 300,000 jobs in the Arlington and Clarendon area," Saslaw said.
Without funding for the Metrorail extension, Saslaw said, Loudoun County residents eventually would be paying almost $12 each way to commute to work in the Washington, D.C., area.
Because of the dispute, the General Assembly failed to pass a budget during its regular legislative session, which ended March 10. Since then, a conference committee of House members and senators has been trying to hammer out a compromise.
How they voted
Here is how the Senate voted Wednesday on "HB 1301 Budget Bill."

Short Pump Rotary volunteers help with rebuild, repair
On June 13, the Short Pump Rotary Club partnered with Schnabel Engineering for a day of volunteer work with Rebuilding Together Richmond. Team members (among them [from left] Chris Rufe, Melissa Abraham, Rick Naschold, and Micky Ogburn) completed a variety of repairs and home improvements ranging from painting and landscaping to cabinet installation and fence building.
"It was a privilege to be involved in this project," said club president Melissa Abraham. "The homeowner kept thanking the volunteers, but I think all of us would agree we are the ones who actually benefited. It was an opportunity to help a community member, fellowship with great people and improve our handyman skills." > Read more.
