I could see them taking Dehner's body back, but since it was a huge-ass rock formation that fell on Gary, I'd say his body was probably pulped. Best to just leave it there than bring back a few scrapings and some teeth.
I would have left Mitchell's pulped body behind and gotten out of there fast. I'm reminded of a line, I think it's from one of Anne Rice's vampire novels. A very old, weary vampire is desperate to die, so he arranges to have someone burn him. And he says, "Scatter the ashes, or I might rise again. And in what form I dare not contemplate."

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA).
Phone interview, followed by a full day of interviews on site. These included an HR overview interview, checklist of skillsets, multiple technical interviews (firmware, electrical engineering, analog & RF engineering, and mechanical engineering) and a behavioral interview. The technical interviews varied from asking to solve very specific engineering problems to much more open-ended questions about previous engineering assignments, problems, and solutions.
Interview Questions
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA).
Applied through campus recruiting. One telephonic round and then 5 onsite rounds. Interview included solving one coding question, and then testing it. Focused more on how to would I test the code, and debug it.
Interview Questions
I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Redmond, WA) in March 2015.
I applied through the College Recruiting Fair and was called immediately for an interview the next day itself in the college. Was called for an onsite interview 3 weeks later. The onsite interview was a long day, as I had to go through 5 rounds of interviews. Overall an amazing experience, but did not receive an offer.

Called in for on campus interview. Had one of the most amazing experiences, the interviewer was very nice and helpful. Even took her out for lunch after where she gives very helpful tips on my resume and work environment in future.

Campus interview at my university. 30 mins interview which asked my resume and some technical questions. Asked me link list question which is easy, and reverse string, check string palindrome .
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Microsoft (Dallas, TX) in February 2015.
I was asked for a telephonic interview first. Interviewer didn't ask anything. Just discussed about my projects and achievements with me. Than he switched to some behavioral questions. No technical questions asked. He seemed to be very optimistic and positive during the interview, but somehow I got rejection later on.
Interview Questions

I was contacted by a campus recruiter to do an on campus interview. The interview was very non-technical and afterwards I was invited to interview on-site for an SDET position. They flew me out and paid for food and housing, then I spent a day interviewing. The interviews themselves were fine, not terribly difficult, but I wasn't set out to be a SDET so I didn't prepare and showed that in the testing specific interviews.
Interview Questions
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft in January 2015.
It was a phone interview. The interviewer rushed me through a 30 minute interview asking a combination of technical and behavioral questions such as how to build a queue from two stacks, Boxing, encapsulation, how to build a battleships game. He also asked what the most complex question I have had to solve is and how I tackled it. I hardly had time to ask any questions at the end.
Interview Questions

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Seattle, WA).
Had 5 45 minute interviews back to back with 15 minute breaks in between. The interviewers talk to each other while you are taking a break before the next one comes to get you. Mix of personality/behavioral and "What would you do in this scenario..." questions. Very laid back interviewers dress is casual and you can just act like you're having a normal conversation... while also writing code on a whiteboard.

not much negotiation as it was for an internship
Helpful (6)
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7+ weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft.
It started out with me reaching out to a recruiter through Linkedin. I was then told if a hiring manager is interested in my resume, I would be contacted shortly. I heard back next week and was then set up for a Skype Interview. This interview lasted for a hour and questions were pretty straightforward (One coding question and one testing/design related question). In the next week after the Skype interview, I was contacted once again and invited onsite for 4 interviews. Interview 1: Lunch interview which included knowing more about the team and what they are working on. After the lunch, we went back to the office and there was whiteboard coding questions. This round lasted for about 90 minutes. Interview 2: The interview started with me describing (Sequence Diagram) of my current project. After that I was asked a coding problem and was asked to determine the test cases. This interview lasted for about 60 minutes. Interview 3: A purely testing question followed by some whiteboard coding. This interview too lasted for about 60 minutes. After this interview, the interview told me that my next round of interview would be with the Hiring Manager. Interview 4: Purely behavioral and the hiring manager sees if you are a good fit for the team. Heard back in a week and was extended an offer. Tips: Don't be scared. I was a little overwhelmed when I walked through the campus but then the HR along with other interviewers really ease you into the interview. Talk loudly as the interviewer then knows what you are thinking about. I was given few hints when I was stuck and the hints really help in that case. Also I was really comfortable writing code on the whiteboard as I spent 2 weeks before the onsite interview practicing on the whiteboard. This really helps. A must do! Approach the testing questions in a very structured manner as they really like that. Cracking the coding interview has those steps mentioned. Resources: Geeksforgeeks - This is the only online resource that I referred as I had gone through Cracking the coding interview and Programming interviews exposed in the past.
Interview Questions
I negotiated a bit as I did not have any other offers. But please negotiate as there is always room for more.

Yeah, the free to lv15 thing is still up as far as I know and won't go away until they implement the full F2P system.
As for the rest... I don't get why it's BioWare's fault that SWG failed. If anything it was SOE's fault and LucasArts fault for letting it happen with their inaction... which has been their trademark for years.
I also don't get the whole thing when people say that swtor is just like any other mmo... cause if it was, I wouldn't be playing it. It's more accurate to say that swtor is a BioWare RPG wrapped in an MMO shell... and that's how I approached this game this entire time. I don't like MMO's... I still don't. The fact that this is an MMO is overshadowed by the fact that it's a BioWare RPG and that there are 8 different class stories to go through which all tie together in some way and tell a larger story.
I avoided swg like the plague... despite the fact that it had space combat and all this stuff that swtor doesn't have (at least at the moment)... I was also one of the people who wanted kotor 3 over this initially. I'm also the one who convinced mim to buy into this game despite him absolutely refusing to initially
I think whatever disappointment this game has caused in terms of profits and fan support, I've thankfully been able to avoid that because I approached this game a certain way that didn't pile on the expectations of other games onto it but simply judged the game as it is, by itself.
I do this with every game btw, even though I can spot similarities, etc with a lot of games. Judge a game on its own merits or not at all... at least for me.

we appreciate your comments sir and understand fully what you say. I guess I just have a slightly different theory about investing in penny stocks. Each to there own I guess. Best of luck to all investors here in HBK, and lets hope many more investors jump on the bandwagon and ride this thing up the hill, which is just down the road a ways. Go HBK.

Kandy Love massages Ingrid Martinez Rico's legs Wednesday as Heller looks on. Love, owner of a local yoga studio, shared a love of yoga with Martinez Rico. / Janine Zeitlin/news-press.com
- Filed Under
- Loving Ingrid
More information
For information on the Ingrid Martinez Rico Womens Leadership Intiative and Global Community Engagement, visit joingce.org/Womens_Leadership.html.
The Loving Ingrid series is at news-press.com/lovingingrid.
Read stories and watch video from 2011 Loving Ingrid series
Ingrid Martinez Rico scanned the familiar faces with names her mind had misplaced.
She knew the women around her wheelchair were friends.
Give me your hands, said Martinez Rico.
The former FGCU professor requires around-the-clock assistance at Heritage Park nursing home in Fort Myers after a dump truck smashed into her station wagon in 2008. The crash left her with severe brain damage. The woman sitting to her right was her yoga teacher, Kandy Love. The woman on her left was confidante, Donna Roberts, a former Fort Myers resident visiting from Brazil.
The woman standing was a new friend, Terri Fulk.
You are all beautiful, she told them.
And that guy, too, she said, looking at her husband, Craig Heller. The quintet sat in a common room at the nursing home on a recent morning.
Fulk was inspired to meet Martinez Rico after reading Loving Ingrid, an award-winning series in The News-Press in July 2011 that featured Martinez Rico and Heller. Dozens of readers offered donations and support for the couple, including a local traumatic brain injury survivor who donated $7,500 to the organization, Global Community Engagement. It is a nonprofit Heller leads to sustain the couples commitment to social justice.
Fulk often visits a few times a week, dropping in during lunch from her job as office manager at her husbands medical practice. Sometimes, theyll feed the cats outside the home. Theyll flip through magazines and pick out clothes and homes they like. Fulk feels gratitude for the woman who helped the most needy, from HIV-positive orphans in Africa to street children in the Dominican Republic.
She just cannot be forgotten, she said.
Since March, Fulk has been using public transportation to escort Martinez Rico to the mall or lunch on the weekend. Theyve visited the Edison & Ford Winter Estates and Sanibel Island.
They would have been friends before, Heller said.
During his weekly visits, if the weather is good, he pushes his wifes wheelchair outside, where they stroll and look at trees and homes as they used to do before the accident. Once a month, he brings their children, Casandra, 9, and Victor, 13, to the home. Casandra, who had been reluctant to visit her mother, now hugs and kisses her without nudging. She wrote her a poem for Mothers Day that hangs in her room.
Ingrid is your name, it reads. Nice you are to me. Games we used to play together. Remembering memories from the past. I love spending time with you.
In the last year, Fulk and Heller said Martinez Rico has become more engaged with people. Heller said staff tweaked his wifes medications and she is more likely to initiate thoughts in conversation instead of simply repeating morsels of what is said.
But theres been no change in her ability to move. She struggles to stand and her physical therapy is limited to what Medicare will provide, which is not much. When Martinez Rico was receiving platinum-level care at a neurologic rehabilitation institute, she could walk with help. The money to provide that private care ran out years ago.
Heller, who is recognized from the series, is searching for work. Finances remain a struggle for the family, although he has promising leads at a local college.
Global Community Engagement continues its work with children and abused women in the Dominican Republic. The fundraising arm of the nonprofit, the Ingrid Martinez Rico Womens Leadership Initiative, kicked off its annual push last month. New donors have emerged but raising money is a challenge, he said.
In the last year, the nonprofit supported a tutoring center that served dozens of children. The organization focuses on programs to prevent human trafficking, a fight in which Heller feels Martinez Rico would be entrenched. He is part of an organizing group for a human trafficking symposium in Lee County set for this fall.
Im 100 percent confident that Ingrid would be very focused on human trafficking, he said. Ingrid would be incensed and horrified and ready to change the world.
On this recent morning, the three women and Heller hatched plans for taking Martinez Rico to Sanibel Island.
Do you want a bikini or a one-piece? Roberts asked Martinez Rico.
One piece, she said.
Now you can think about going to the beach, Fulk said.
Everyone needs something to look forward to, Love noted.
Martinez Rico agreed.

DD Bharati, Indian Television
DD Bharati is an Indian television channel that was launched on 26th January, 2002. This channel brought its own priorities of culture.
DD Bharati was launched in 26th January 2002, after DD3's untimely demise, and bore little resemblance to the clubby DD3. Instead, it sought to create niche programmes in areas as diverse as health, children and art and culture, of eight hours each. DD Bharati was the brainwave of the Bharatiya Janata Party (
) regime; it brought its own set of priorities to culture. For example, a prime-time experiment was Sanskrit Bharati, a half-hour exercise in spoken Sanskrit. DD Bharati says it with flowers, as you might have noticed if you have tuned in. There are flowers on the logo and flowers blooming in their corporate ad. In the interim, DD Bharati is determinedly wholesome and hotch potch. One minute some one gets a tutorial on various schools of music or dance, the next somebody is holding forth on the importance of teeth in the human body. If some body wants a rough idea of what to expect, there will be health in the morning (DD style: self-conscious, dressed-up woman sitting by a table lamp and telling you about yoga), programmes for young people from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m., art and culture thereafter.
Telecast schedule of DD Bharati
The programmes of DD Bharati include adventure, quiz contests, fine arts/paintings, crafts and designs, cartoons, talent hunts etc.; "MERI BAAT" an hour-long phone-in 'live' show with young people; A four-hour segment emphasizing a healthy life style and focusing on prevention rather than cure, both in out traditional and modern forms of medicine; a Classical dance/music performances by top class artists of national and international fame; Programmes on theatre, literature, music, paintings, sculpture & architecture; Programmes in collaboration with organizations like IGNCA, CEC, IGNOU, PSBT, NCERT and Sahitya Academy. The channel also provides extensive coverage to the air Sangeet Sammelans and contributions made by the Regional
Kendra's are regularly telecast live/recorded.
Unfortunately, DD Bharati's idea of a playful format is filming a Socrates-style conversation between dancer
and her young disciples. Similarly, the Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA) runs two hours of research-oriented programming, exploring ritual and context, oral traditions and so on, in a magazine show called 'Kala Tarang'. While both are good ideas, they are far from being compelling watching material. DD Bharati also has to create vibrant programming that can vie for attention with the other 70-odd channels on air.
The Cable Television Networks (Regulation) Act of 1995 makes it mandatory for cable operators to show three channels of Doordarshan on prime band. The cable operators are bound by law to show
Indian DD National
, DD Metro and one more channel on this band.
Prasar Bharati
issued a notification, on Feb 7, 2002, making it mandatory for cable operators in some States to carry DD-Bharati, the new infotainment channel. In the year 2004, DD Bharati was set to launch a gamut of programmes on health, children, art and culture. Featuring in the health band was a health quiz programme, Khilkhilati Zindagi, a show based on the current health news and solutions with medical and health specialists from reputed hospitals. The show premiered on 2 March 2004 at 8.00am.
DD Bharati is working as a Cultural Heritage of India.

Star Trek
has been rehashing plots since season one of TOS. TMP was a rehash of
"The Changeling"
. TWOK brought back a villain from TOS. TVH was a time travel story reminiscent of at least three TOS episodes. TNG and show that followed mixed and matched TOS characters. The Next Generation films desperately tried to duplicate the success of TWOK and TVH.
There was a kot of story in both of Abrams films. If someone can't see the story through the "explosions" I think the problem might lie with them.
I think you miss the point completely, it may have used similar plots in the past for episodes but we were still learning about the characters, a back story etc.
I can assure you there is no problem with me, I know what I'm watching, if you read my previous post you'd realise I said Abrams Star Trek 'could' have worked if it wasn't for Into Darkness, so mentioning 'both films' is irrelevant. Into Darkness offered us nothing new, I learnt nothing new. That is my point. Apart from Kirk 'dying' of radiation rather than Spock, it was just ooh big explosion and ohh more CGI.
You tell me where the new story is?
Yes, I can. Don't mistake using the same characters and similar situations as being "nothing new". Khan was used in a different way than in
Space Seed
. Carol is used differently as well. Kirk isn't an aging officer who feels ready to be put out to pasture. Khan was play much more sympathetically than in the previous outings. So yes, the movie played differently than TWOK.
We're still learning about these characters too, only we have nearly fifty year of seeing them in their previous incarnations.
I don't care if you mentioned the previous film or not. My comment was directed at more than just you.

Hi Ladies! I'm about 20 weeks and have noticed a significant difference in my cervical mucus lately. It seems thinner (more like egg whites) and there's more of it. I was worried that I could be leaking amniotic fluid but it seems to be just more CM than what I had previously. It is odorless.
Has anyone else noticed an increase in discharge around this time?

First let me say that I am a noob, and not a programmer, so please be as specific as possible.
So, I'm just starting, using NextGen and Cart66 to create a store. Here's what I have:
Ok first ... I don't want an option for a slideshow. I'll look around, I should be able to figure out how to remove that link myself.
2nd, I want the thumbnails to be bigger. I'd like to have rows of 4 items (I think I have my galleries set that way). Can't find anyplace to set thumbnail sizes.
3rd, I want to have the title of the image under the thumbnail.
4th, I want to have the cart66 "add to cart" button under the thumbnail.
There may be more, but lets start there. Anyone ever use these 2 plugins together to build a store?

"dropping the odd call" is acceptable, understandable and, as you say, usually the network.
However, my experience of a phone running windows mobile was that I frequently missed incoming calls because the phone app was simply crap, nothing to do with the network at all. The app would simply hang. I only found out when I came to make a call and had to reboot the damn thing to make it work only to then find a load of voicemails waiting for me.
I will never buy a windows mobile phone again purely because the phone app was crap.
The purpose of a phone is to make/receive calls and send/receive sms. Everything else is a bonus. But if can't do the phone thing, it's a waste of space.
Wake me up when I can get same functionality as my existing DVR.
It's 4 digits because that's all Mrs. Shepherd-Barron could remember ....

Hello, I am a beginner, and now there is one question which I cannot get any clue of it. Could any one have some hint of it? Thanks very much in advance!
An integer stack can be thought of as an array of integers which behaves according to First in last out principle; the first integer put to the stack will be the last one which gets out of the stack. Write an object oriented program which simulates the way numbers are put to a stack and the way they are retrieved out of the stack of 10 numbers.

Hi Sue,
Welcome to JavaRanch!
Here's a basic outline of what you need to do:
1) Define a class IntegerStack .
2) Give IntegerStack a member variable that is an int array.
3) Give IntegerStack a member variable used as an index to "point" to the top of the stack.
4) define a method push(int) which adds an integer to the stack.
5) define a method pop() which removes the integer on the top of the stack and returns it.
Why not see how far you can get with this, then come back to this thread and ask more specific questions if you get stuck.

I had to read your topic line about 10 times ... I've usually heard FIFO First In First Out and LIFO Last In First Out. I have seen FILO First In Last Out but long ago and not very often. It should be same as LIFO, yes? Puts me in mind of those parking lots in New York City where you see your car way back in the corner with dozens of others in the way. First In, Last Out!
Ernest's API suggestions are perfect. And here's a good exercise in "information hiding". Do you want to use his "array" suggestion for storing the data? Or do you have another idea? The API doesn't change so your decision is nicely hidden.
A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of the idea. John Ciardi
I agree. Here's the link:

Is there a way to change the theme name from "avisio" to something like "website_name" and what files should be modified? Thank you in advance!

I don't even need bullets. I kill them with a stare.

Zoe Saldana Goes Green For Marvel's "Guardians Of The Galaxy'
Getty Images/Marvel
It was announced Wednesday that Saldana is in talks to co-star in the screen adaptation of "Guardians of the Galaxy," another comic book project from Marvel Studios. Saldana is in the running to play Gamora, a green-skinned warrior who is the last survivor of a humanoid race all but wiped out by their enemies the Badoon. Gamora will be roaming the outer reaches of space in the film, and given Saldana's experience aboard a starship in "Star Trek" and as a blue-skinned alien in "Avatar," she seems made to order for this role.
James Gunn, who directed the cult-favorite horror flick "Slither" and the offbeat super-hero tale "Super," will be behind the camera for "Guardians of the Galaxy." Saldana is the third actor to be attached to the project so far, with Chris Pratt (of "Parks and Recreation" and "Zero Dark Thirty") confirmed as Star-Lord, and Dave Bautista (the WWE fighter who also appeared in "The Man With The Iron Fists") cast as Drax The Destroyer.
While information is still slim about the movie (not uncommon in the early stages of Marvel projects), "Guardians of the Galaxy" is one of the more eccentric stories in the Marvel Universe, with characters including Groot, a huge half-man half tree, and Rocket Raccoon, a mutant critter with a sharp personality and an itchy trigger finger.
Joss Whedon, who spilled the beans about Gunn directing "Guardians" last year, praised the filmmaker and his offbeat perspective on the characters and their world. "He has a very twisted take on it, but it all comes from a real love of the material so you know he's going to make the Raccoon… It's going to be hard for the humans to keep up," Whedon said.
If Whedon is to be trusted, Saldana is in for a wild ride but is in good hands. Shooting on "Guardians of the Galaxy" is expected to begin in June, and the film is scheduled to open in theaters August 1, 2014.

How can an overwhelmingly young India be well served by its ageing political leaders?
The UPA government has touted its cabinet reshuffle as a much-needed infusion of youth and vibrancy. While it is easy to get caught up in government talking points, the facts speak otherwise: as India's population is getting younger, its political elites are bucking the trend. India is increasingly exhibiting all the hallmarks of a gerontocracy a polity in which leaders are significantly older than the people themselves. This has potentially troubling implications for its democracy.
First, consider a few facts about India's ruling class. Prior to the latest reshuffle, the median age of cabinet members stood at 65 years. Post-reshuffle, the median age of the new cabinet stands at, well, 65 years. True, some younger MPs were brought in as ministers of state while others like Sachin Pilot and Jyotiraditya Scindia were given weightier portfolios. Yet these young MPs still lack cabinet rank. The overall age demographic of the cabinet, the apex executive body in the country, was left unchanged.
As the Economist reported several months ago, India is an outlier in this regard; it has one of the highest discrepancies between the median age of its cabinet and that of its population. This is perhaps not surprising, given how rapidly many Western countries are ageing. Yet, even when compared to Brazil and China, India's age ratio of ruler-to-ruled stands out. What is more, the age disparity in India's leadership is only increasing over time. According to data collected by PRS Legislative Research, in India's first general election in 1952, 20 per cent of members of Parliament (MPs) were over the age of 55. In 2009, that percentage more than doubled to 43 per cent.
In the face of ageing politicians, India's population is getting younger. Over the next several decades, India stands to benefit from what economists refer to as the "demographic dividend". Between 2010 and 2040, one-quarter of the increase in the world's population aged 15-64 will take place in India that is roughly 300 million new working-age adults. This demographic shift will shape Indian society in ways foreseen and not.

'On Earth, petroleum once turned petty thugs into world leaders'

Re: 'On Earth, petroleum once turned petty thugs into world leaders'
The whole relying on oil to the point of absurdity thing has blown my mind my whole life.
When I was a teenager in the 70s, I read a novel (one I recently repurchased and reread for the first time in decades) that is very much in the 'ethical use of tech will save us' mode, Ben Bova's MILLENNIUM.
In it, you have Soviet and US forces working side by side in relative peace on the moon, seeing a nuclear exchange on Earth is about to take place between their countries, seize all the ABM laser sats the two countries have in orbit and become their own country to save the planet from itself. Bova also piggybacks the idea of laser guided weather control in the same novel, suggesting if a country violates UN guidelines (giving the UN some REAL power is another notion here), they will simply get their water 'turned off' through weather control, along with a shitload of seriously dry summers and calamitous winters.
Now this is all seriously promethean (and Bova did a nonfic book on prometheanism too, which I used to hand out to people before I stopped my 'true believer' mode on tech solving/saving everything), but it is part and parcel with the notion that if your tech is limited or running out or bad for living things, you get rid of it in place of 'cleaner' or better tech ... and regardless of how I felt about tech being the answer to everything or just a potential tool for same, I always figured we would HAVE to wise up on shit like oil, even if it took riots in the streets.
Double Dumb Ass on Me.

1846 $10 MS62 NGC....Click the image to load the highest resolution version.
Fantastic MS62 1846 Eagle1846 $10 MS62 NGC. In the mid-1840s, production of ten dollar gold pieces fell from the mid- to upper-five figures of 1839 to 1843 to a startling low of 6,361 coins in 1844. Mintages rebounded somewhat in 1845 and 1846, but neither issue reached the heights of prior years, nor that of the massive population spike of 1847. Also worth noting is that while the Philadelphia Mint often has the highest production of any Mint for a given year and denomination, New Orleans outpaced Philadelphia's production in each of these three years.
As may be expected, survivors are elusive in any grade, and the degree of rarity increases dramatically in better condition. Garrett and Guth compare the 1846 eagle to its slightly higher-mintage 1845 counterpart, and while they caution that the 1846 has "a few more AU coins" due to the recovery of several pieces from the wreck of the S.S. Republic, this issue remains indubitably challenging. As noted in Garrett and Guth: "The typical 1846 example is only EF or worse. About Uncirculated pieces are definitely rare ... "
In keeping with the increase in difficulty, Mint State survivors of this No Motto issue are at the pinnacle of condition rarity. This high-end survivor is crisply detailed, and the lemon-gold surfaces offer surprising reflectivity. Though minor abrasions and small, scattered flaws are present in the fields, the overall visual appeal is excellent, particularly for a coin not awarded Select status. One of two MS62 coins tied for the finest certified by NGC; PCGS has yet to grade a Mint State example (9/08).(Registry values: N1) (NGC ID# 262W, PCGS# 8594)

Fresh off Rick Sutcliffe's recovery from colon cancer, Bill Reiter of the KANSAS CITY STAR pens a lengthy profile on the local legend - interviewing Sutcliffe in his KC-area home.
It's a good read, and the best story is saved for last - which has Sutcliffe spinning a yarn that had him stealing the first base of his career - spurred by an on-air bet between Steve Stone and Bill Murray.
During a WGN TV broadcast which featured Sutcliffe as a Cubs pitcher, Reiter reports …
Sitting in the booth, Stone and Murray had to stall while a new pitcher warmed up. Murray looked at Stone and said, 'I betcha a case of beer Sutcliffe steals second.' Stone laughed and pointed out Sutcliffe had never even attempted to steal a base. He pointed out Sutcliffe had a bad hamstring. He pointed out Sutcliffe was not exactly the world's fastest human being.
"But," Sutcliffe remembered Stone saying, "I'll take the bet because I'd like to win a case of beer from you."
The pitcher was still warming up when word spreads and a fan yelled, "Hey Sut, Murray just bet Steve Stone a case of beer you'll steal second!"
Standing on first base, Sutcliffe decided: Screw it. I'm going.
"All of a sudden the pitcher comes down and I tell my mind to go but my body won't move and I literally almost fell down," he said.
Then Expos manager Buck Rodgers yelled to first baseman Andres Galarraga, 'Play behind him, he ain't frickin' going anywhere!' "
Sutcliffe took off running. All 6-7 of the Red Baron hauling ass for second base just to mess with Cubs announcer Steve Stone.
"I am gone," Sutcliffe said. "He comes down and looks over. Well I'm halfway to second. I'm going, 'Ah, he got me.' Well the dummy goes to home so now I've got to get going again. But there's still a play. That's how slow I am."
The throw. The slide. He's safe.
That moment started a friendship between Sutcliffe and Murray that lives on today. So much so, that Murray often shows up in KC just to goof around (see beer cart-powered golf).
But based on Sutcliffe latest, life-threatening affliction - and his alcohol-fueled broadcasting embarrassment (not to mention Murray's) - I hope wonder if Sut's cut back on the booze.

Remember Me
In addition to his music being very difficult to describe or perhaps understand, Les the man is just as hard to wrap your brain around. Not only is Les the infamous bass player and band leader, but he is also quite a proficient producer, director, screenwriter, video artist, cartoonist, and of course he owns his own record label; Prawn Song.
Now I am in no way claiming that I have "figured out" Les Claypool in a half hour conversation back stage at the High Sierra Music Festival, but I have perhaps unlocked a small snippet of the man they call "Colonel." While I've heard a few rumors that Les was "hard to talk to" or "a bit weird, and difficult to connect with," I found neither of these observations to be true. In fact I found Les to be rather down-to-earth, and in fact quite easy to engage. Maybe a bit odd, but that very well could be the pot calling the kettle black, as they say.
Les and I linked up back stage at High Sierra on Sunday evening as Michael Franti & Spearhead were gearing up to shut down the festivities on the Main Stage. Les had just rolled out of his tour bus after catching a quick nap before his Late Night gig that would in fact help wrap up High Sierra 2003. I sipped coffee and listened while Les spoke candidly, letting all of us into the interesting world of Les Claypool.
Kayceman: Well I think since we are sitting here at the High Sierra Music Festival, it would be appropriate to start off by asking you if you have a preference between the smaller festivals such as this or a larger one like Bonnaroo?
Kayceman: I would hope so.
Les: It just makes it that much more fun. Makes me wanna do it more often.
Kayceman: Well that's good to hear. With so many time slots at these festivals do you have a specific time of day that you particularly enjoy playing?
Les: I like playing in the dark.
It seems as if your music translates a little better in the dark.
Personal taste.
And the people who go see you, that's what they enjoy as well. Now, you've obviously played with such a wide array of people, really no need to list them, but is there anybody else that you particularly have in mind that you would really like to get together and collaborate with?
I'm sure that there is... Well you know I've gotten to befriend a lot of my heroes like Tom Waits, Adrian Belew and all these different people. But I would have loved to have been able to do something with Gabriel, Roger Waters, David Gilmore, and I'm a big fan of Sigur Ros I'd love to do something with them.
Actually I saw you at that show in Oakland.
Oh yeah?
Ya, and I wanted to ask you what you thought about that?
Likewise. I was blown away. I had heard it was something to see, but it was beyond my expectations.
I really enjoyed that. It's inspiring to me. It makes me want to stretch out in different directions.
Are there any other bands that are really turning you on right now?
You know I saw Umphrey's McGee today for the first time and I really dug them. I had heard about them, but I really enjoyed them. I think they're going to do very well.
Me too.
[Quite, quizzical look on Les' face as he contemplates other bands] Big Sigur Ros fan. [Les then breaks into laughter]
Me too. Can't argue with that. Now I know you are playing with the Biscuits tonight, and I believe at the Jammys when they didn't have a bass player you played with them, is that correct?
How did you enjoy playing with them?
It was fun, but a bit chaotic. I flew in, got stuck in traffic, missed sound check and everybody was freaking out. I was by myself and I almost didn't make it.
A bit overwhelming at the moment?
Ya, pretty overwhelming. With Primus there was always somebody there to kinda baby sit me when I was traveling and what not. I wasn't used to dealing with this shit on my own. [Breaks into laughter]
I can see that. Moving on to the Frog Brigade a bit, obviously Eenor wasn't there last night, and I had heard that he may not be a part of the band anymore. Is that true?
Definitely, but sometimes that can be tough.
It's very tough. The decision to move away from Eenor was really tough. And it was a long and thought out process. I went back and forth on it for a long time. It was not an easy thing. I wish that we would have had a conflict, because it would have been a lot easier.
Right. I also heard that Mike Dillon might be joining up with The Polyphonic Spree, do you know anything about that?
No, I don't.
That could have just been a piece of crap I heard, I'm not sure. What about Kehoe, your new guitarist?
Well Kehoe is with us now. I've known him, I suppose, since high school. He's a monster. He's an extremely creative person, and an extreme performer. He hasn't even blown fire yet; wait 'til he starts blowing fire.
I'll look forward to that tonight.
I won't do that indoors.
Good point. When you say that you like to keep it open for Frog Brigade, when you are thinking about personnel, like let's take Skerik for instance. Did you search Skerik out as piece to your puzzle, or did you guys sort of gravitate toward each other? You seem to have very similar and complimentary stage personas.
Well, the whole Frog thing was sort of an accident. You know I did Oysterhead and all of a sudden everybody is starting to ask me to put together bands for their festivals. So most people know the Frog Brigade story by now, but I played that Mountain Aire (2000) with the guys that came together with MIRV, Skerik, two drummers - Tim Alexander (Primus) and Jack Irons (Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers). And me and Skerik have just always sort of stuck by each other, but Skerik wasn't even one of the original thoughts. I was gonna have three drummers. But the organizers thought it might be too heavy, like I might be busting some Slayer on them or something. So they suggested I change it up, so I just called it Frog Brigade just for that one show. And I kinda dug it, and now it's sort of just become this thing. But it was suggested that I play with somebody who is kinda known in that community. And I had known Skerik through that Oysterhead show, so I was like, "Sure bring him on down and we'll see what happens." And we've become great friends. I like playing with people I can learn from, and I learn from him, I learn from Mike Dillon. You know me and Paulo are sort of learning a lot about each other now because it's still new, and that's great.
How about Buckethead, how did you guys come to know each other?
I understand.
He's very odd... odd in a good way. Quite a character, even in "real life." [Laughing that slightly maniacal Les laugh]
Did you guys record a CD? A Bucket of Bernie Brains CD, is that right?
Yeah, it's not quite finished yet. The music's done, but I have to finish my vocals.
Any idea when it will be out?
Probably around January. I started working on this Primus thing so I got side tracked.
Prior to your Primus days did you try out for any major bass jobs?
Right, what really happened with that? I've heard some varying accounts of that.
That's the comment I heard.
That's him being polite. I go, "Ahh fuck you, you thought I was a weirdo." And he laughed it off. He thought I was a weirdo.
[Les starts laughing] Well I don't think I would have lasted.
Like you said, just not the right fit I guess.
Moving back to you personally, I believe I read that you lost hearing in your left ear, is that correct?
In my right ear. Some of my high frequency from a scuba diving accident.
Does that affect your bass playing in any way?
Not really. It affects me socializing with large groups of people. It's hard for me to discern syllables sometimes. Like if there are a lot of people talking, especially woman's voices, I just can't hear. So I try to kind of aim my left ear at people.
And you have a son, just one son is that right?
I have a son and a daughter.
Do they like your music?
Yeah, they like Daddy's music. They like Tom Waits, my son went through a huge Beatles phase a few years ago. They're big on Harry Potter right now.
I'm curious now. You have very distinct subject line, and demeanor and angle that you take on things. Could you say that there is anything specific that you sort of draw this darker stage persona from? Or is it just a reflection of you?
With these festivals, I know it's obviously different than your Primus days, do you find anything in particular that you get out of this grassroots organization?
If anything it takes me back to the old days of Primus, because we were involved in a lot of things that were similar to this. Not necessarily as much tie-dye and hackeysacks, or whatever. But the early Lollapalooza and stuff had a vibe like this. When we did the Public Enemy/Anthrax tour, sure it's a different type of music, more aggressive, but it had that sort of gathering of cultures type of thing. To me it reminds me of the early days of Primus. There was an excitement to it, something new. It's kind of exciting, I like these festivals. I like seeing that there are young people out there not just a bunch of people my age that are actually interested in music that is music and not some sort of fashion statement. I said that at the Jammys a handful of years ago. Because I was truly and honestly surprised... and just extremely pleasantly surprised - touched by the whole thing. It touches me. Maybe not as much as it did three years ago, but it still touches me to come out. You know you turn on the radio, it's like, "What the hell is going on?" But when I think about it, in the early days of Primus we didn't listen to the radio. We didn't give a shit about the radio. And then you get on the radio and you start listening to it going, "Oh ya I hear myself, and I'm hearing some of my friends." And then all of a sudden you're concerned about the radio and you're concerned about MTV. And this sort of brings me back to, "Wait a minute, we're a subculture." We've always been a subculture, and not by choice, but because that's what we are. And this is a nurturing environment for that, and I'm very happy it exists. And I'm happy to see that it appears to be growing.
Definitely. I definitely think so. In my job I see that clearly.
That more or less brings me to my last question; I know you kinda gotta get going. In speaking about society and media, do you have any comments or thoughts about Clear Channel?
Well, obviously it's a drag that we have this entity that is monopolizing media in general. But I don't think it's the first time we've seen this. Maybe I'm wrong, I'm not as knowledgeable about this as I probably should be, or could be. But it seems to me that these things come and go in cycles and I think that Clear Channel is going to get to the point where they are promoting all these pop acts and what not. And a lot of things are already fizzling. They are going to start losing money, and they are gonna start selling off some of these things and some of the grassroots people are going to come back into it. It just seems to kind of come and go in waves.
I guess that's life, things go in cycles.
Yeah. I read this Ian Copeland book this last year. And he's coined the term "New Wave." And at the time it was a very powerful thing, and then it became "Pop" and all that. But he was working out of Atlanta I believe, pretty staunch southern rock type agency and he was trying to bring over these British acts. And his company was like, "We don't wanna hear any of that punk rock shit." And it wasn't punk rock. It was what he called "New Wave." He tried to turn them onto to Dire Straits, and they were like, "Yeah we don't want this punk rock shit." But it came in and just took over. It changed things. And every now and again that stuff happens. And I think it will happen again, and hopefully it will balance out this Clear Channel thing.
I hope so.
But there's always something. There's Tickemaster, there's Clear Channel, Infinity Broadcasting. But this is a subculture, what we got going here, it's a subculture. And when it becomes popular then it becomes pop-culture and then we are in the Big Machine. Then this (High Sierra – everything all around us) is the Big Machine. The big machines all started as little machines.

Married onboard Majesty of the Seas
My newlywed husband and I, along with 24 of our family and closest friends recently just cruised on the MOS. This was our first cruise, along with quite a few of our guests first cruise. The way all of us "first-timers" have been describing it was - "the best vacation we've ever been on". First of all, the fact that we were married onboard in Miami before we embarked, was just perfect. We got the royal treatment, literally, the entire cruise. The entire staff could not have been more acccomdating and polite to us. Not to mention all other cruisers! Everyone, complete strangers, were so nice to us and giving us high fives, drinks, words of encouragement. It was absolutely the best.

Cabin review: JS1546 Junior Suite
We enjoyed our junior suite...my husband is 6'7 and he felt quite comfortable. Of course, we'd always take more space, but for the price, we were very pleased. Always will book a cabin with a balcony!

If MSN were serious about giving unsigned musicians a shot at fame, it wouldn't launch a site like this.
Welcome to Digital Noise, a blog about music and technology.
Digital-music provider Vitaminic says it has launched an online music subscription service, dubbed Vitaminic Music Club. The service will provide music fans with unlimited access to legally downloadable tracks from artists including Duke Ellington and Frank Sinatra. The company said the subscription will run $39.95 for six months or $69.95 for a year. In January, Vitaminic partnered with Sony Music Entertainment to let consumers purchase secure, downloadable music. Two months later, Vitaminic inked a deal to acquire the Internet Underground Music Archive (IUMA), including its domains, artist databases, equipment and the registered trademark, Musicomania, which was owned by EMusic.
Venerable independent artist Web site IUMA (Independent Underground Music Archive) is back in full operation, after being bought by Italian music company Vitaminic. The site, one of the first music sites on the Web, had been mostly shut down by struggling parent EMusic. Vitaminic said it would once again accept new artists to the site and fulfill previous revenue-sharing promises made to artists. Independent music sites have had a hard time surviving the downturn in venture funding. Riffage.com went under late last year, while Epitonic.com remained online only after finding a buyer.
The Internet Underground Music Archive signs a deal to be acquired by digital music provider Vitaminic, giving life support to the Net music veteran.
The Internet Underground Music Archive (IUMA), a veteran music site that lets unsigned bands promote and sell their music online, has completed its integration with EMusic.com and has launched a redesigned site. IUMA's new site features a search interface for finding music and information about emerging artists, as well as the recently debuted Artist Uplink, which allows artists to upload biographies, photos, tour dates, images, artwork, songs, and lyrics.
Music download site GoodNoise said it will acquire the Internet Underground Music Archive (IUMA), a veteran music site that lets unsigned bands promote and sell their music online. IUMA, online since 1993, hosts more than 3,500 band sites, GoodNoise said. Following the all-stock deal, expected to close in June, IUMA will be a wholly owned subsidiary of GoodNoise, which soon will change its name to Emusic.com, the company said.
Another free ride is coming to an end for Web music, only this time it's the musicians who stand to lose out.
The Internet Underground Music Archive, possibly the oldest major music site on the Net, is on life support, looking for last-minute financial rescue.
The Web site, which sells direct digital downloads of music, says it will lay off more than a third of its staff as part of a new round of restructuring.

So nice
Soviet Russia will find you and fucking kill you.
Hey it's me! I mean...that's actually my name and I'm a brunette..weird.
I have a question, how do you make those white outlines? By your hand, or with some program?
On'paint tool sai' you are able to make an outline by simply using the wand to 'select the background' then inverting the selection so it is now on your character, Then expanding the selection by clicking edit - and so on (: then colouring in the selection on a layer underneath whatever the colour
Well balanced
