The Series
Competition reality shows reached a new plateau of popularity with the introduction of CBS' Survivor. Since that monster hit burst onto the scene, every network and netlet have bent over backwards to come up with the "next big thing." Of course, many shows have turned out to be mere copycats of shows which preceded them. BET's College Hill Interns owes more than a passing debt of gratitude to NBC's The Apprentice in its contest pitting college-age young people in competitive exercises which will give them a heads-up in dealing with real-world businesses once they're on their own planning their careers.
The producers have typically chosen a cross section of personalities to inhabit the series, ten college students or recent college graduates who vie for the ultimate recognition: Ivy (the virgin), Khasheef (the partier), Jenna (the aggressive bully), Kathy (the lesbian), Letia (the quiet one), Lonnie (the entrepreneur), Maurice (the playboy), Spencer (the youngest and most naïve), Tatiana (the petite, sensitive one), and Marc (the jock go-getter). Living in the same quarters, it's obvious that there will be conflicts with egos and romances that bloom (shades of Big Brother). In fact, College Hill Interns doesn't really forge much of a personality of its own; it's too busy mimicking traits of other, more established reality shows. (The one thing it doesn't do is have individuals voting one another off the show; for that, there is a Donald Trump-like advisor, Dr. Ian Smith, who decides who stays, who goes, and who wins.)
Truthfully, the tasks the interns are asked to perform are not exactly brain busters: they must participate in some team cooperation exercises at a gym, they must organize and run a fund raiser for HIV awareness in the Chicago area, and they must work for a day at a Habitat for Humanity project (where Tatiana has a breakdown when she's asked to rake dirt in the front yard so grass seed can be planted, and which Lonnie doesn't attend because he's sleeping off a hangover from the previous night of hard partying.) Actually, the show focuses as much on their nights of partying at clubs as it does on their work projects maybe adding more entertainment value to the show but also adding to a decided lower responsibility quotient and lesser expectations these participants seem to possess for themselves.
The final two episodes of the series cram two work-intensive projects for the remaining contestants. In one, the teams must design and execute a print ad for the Toyota Yaris. In the second assignment, the teams must design flyers, make a radio commercial, and then promote a McDonalds-sponsored live concert in Chicago. The show would have been much more interesting and involving if more work-intensive projects such as these had been included in the first two-thirds of the series episodes.
Video Quality
The show is filmed in 1.33:1 and presented thus on this DVD. With no anamorphic enhancement, the images are plagued with all manner of visual artifacts: jaggies, stair-stepping, line twitter, aliasing, and pixilation. Color is at acceptable levels, and close-up interviews are sharp though when the group heads out into the night, images frequently become grainy and blurred. Each episode is divided into 4 chapters except for the final extended episode which contains 5 chapters.
Audio Quality
The Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo soundtrack is feebly stereophonic. Almost everything goes through the center channel, and the sound is adequate to convey what's going on (though much profanity is bleeped during the show; this is not the uncensored version). Obviously made on a small budget, the program has a strictly no-frills sound design.
Special Features
A Cast Audition Reel is 9 minutes of interviews with the ten contestants in which they describe why they should be chosen to be on the show. These interviews reveal exactly what traits the producers found present in each of these students to select them for the program.
The Reject Reel is 2½ minutes of videotaped footage submitted by other aspiring contestants for the show who weren't selected. In most cases, the submissions reveal that the person was more interested in being on television than in furthering his business career.
"A Day with Soulja Boy" finds intern Jenna spending two days as the personal assistant/gofer for hip-hop star Soulja Boy who's making a personal appearance in Atlanta prior to the BET Hip-Hop Awards. Jenna spends the two days doing various menial jobs for the singer: taking the meal orders for him and his crew, selecting clothes for him so he doesn't have to waste time shopping, preparing a tray of snacks in his personal trailer prior to his personal appearances, and working as an audience warm-up barker prior to one of his personal appearances. This 4:3 segment runs 13 minutes.
There is a preview trailer for How She Move.
In Conclusion
2.5/5 (not an average)
Not one of the great contributions to television broadcasting, College Hill Interns might entertain those who can't get enough of competitive reality shows which focus more on personalities than on achievements. I found it fairly forgettable.

Bulk film is a great plan, as madgardener already pointed out.
You still have Panatomic-X!! I love that film! I've only been able to shoot a few rolls but I would use that over TMY-2 any day!

Movie Takes
Vote of No Confidence
In a movie about scam-artists, shouldn't the scam seem as plausible to the audience as it does to the victims? Besides, a narcissistic movie star like Ed Burns is the last person in the world who should be playing a confidence man.

Global Diet Food Industry
Part of the global functional food sector, the world weight control product market is expected to reach almost $47 billion by 2015, according to research from Global Industry Analysts. Market growth is fuelled by a rising number of overweight and obese consumers, product innovation, and increased awareness surrounding health issues. The portion of the population suffering from obesity represented by children continues to grow, prompting manufacturers to market their products directly to children and to offer a wide range of tastes and flavors. Obesity is growing in emerging nations due to urbanization and changing lifestyle habits, holding strong expansion for market growth in these regions.
Manufacturers are meeting consumer demand more elaborate diet programs, offering 24-hour support tools to encourage interactive dieting habits, reports Business Insights. US demand for fat replacers is growing, along with customized eating programs designed to cater to consumers wishing to maintain a healthy weight or lose excess weight.
Key Segments
- The global weight management industry is forecast to generate sales of $650 billion by 2015, according to Transparency Market Research. The market caters to obese and overweight individuals trying to shed extra pounds to improve their health, and also to health conscious consumers seeking to avoid becoming overweight as a preventative measure against weight-related health concerns.
- North America dominates the global weight management market, generating almost $148 billion in 2010. This region is followed by the EU, recording market growth comparable with that of North America. Asia represents the region with the greatest weight management market growth potential as consumers in the region are adopting western lifestyle and eating habits necessitating weight management measures. Asian consumers have rising disposable income and are reacting more rapidly to weight-related health concerns, spurring market growth in this sector.
- The market for fat replacement in food and drinks is growing due to increased consumer awareness concerning different types of fats. Popular reduced fat product ingredients entering the market between 2008 and 2010 include pectin, guar gum, gelatin, cornstarch, xanthan gum, soy protein and carrageenan, reports Business Insights. Sunflower oil was particularly popular, present in more than 9% of products. Fat replacers must effectively limit or replace the target fat at an affordable cost without causing side effects.
- Gluten-free foods are growing in popularity due to rising cases of celiac disease and a wider portion of the population suffering from food allergies, reports Packaged Facts. Many family and friends of those suffering from celiac disease and allergies also adopt eating habits excluding gluten to support the allergy or celiac disease sufferer, further fuelling market growth. The rate of market expansion is expected to slow over the next five-year period. Gluten-free products are expected to generate more than $5 billion in sales by 2015.
Industry Leaders
Leading companies currently operating in the global weight management industry include Reebok, Brunswick, Unilever, Abbott Nutrition, Atkins Nutritionals, McNeil Nutritionals, GSK, Nestle, Kellogg, Roche, Merck and Jenny Craig.
Regional Market Share
- UK state initiatives to encourage people to cut back on salt, sugar and saturated fat to combat weight-related health complications have been fuelling the growth of the reduced-sugar, and low-fat foods and drinks sector. Alternative products containing less sugar and fat are increasingly available on the market, making this sector one with vast potential.
- The US diet food home delivery market is worth almost $925 million, according to MarketData Enterprises. There are around 30 major players competing in this market segment, some delivering at a nationwide level and others catering to local markets. This market segment is expected to record yearly growth of 4.5% between 2011 and 2014. Around 65% of customers are female, with most customers opting for plans lasting between 8 and 12 weeks and paying close to $725 per month.
Diet Industry Trends
The global diet food industry is set to continue recording strong growth in the face of rising levels of obesity and weight-related diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Consumers are increasingly aware of the risks linked with being overweight and the positive impact weight loss has on overweight or obese individuals.
Government resources are straining under the pressure of healthcare systems overburdened with weight-related disease sufferers, and state initiatives are likely to continue placing emphasis on personal responsibility for maintaining a healthy weight. Manufacturers will focus on product innovation and new diet food product offerings to expand and maintain consumer bases.

All sounds perfectly normal to me. So you shed a little blood, suck it up, man! Just don't drip any in the developer. BTW, what makes you think things would be any different if you had a $2500 Canham 5x7? My first LF negs were with a brand spankin' new Zone VI view camera and Schneider lens and you have done a lot better than I did. 25 sheets already? In one day? Yikes. Did this camera have a motor drive? For me, 10 is a lot in one day.
One thing that will get you really hooked is when you don't have to tray process anymore. Trays get real old real fast without great music and wine, anyway. I got away from tray processing as fast as I could. I got a JOBO 4x5 inversion tank that had reels that held 12 4x5 negatives. Awesome thing, but it cost a fortune to fill it all the way with developer. So I started using Rodinal! Then I got a JOBO processor and some Expert drums and now life is so cool. Heck, I choose a developer with long development times just so I can eat\drink\surf while the JOBO spins away. Next thing, you might consider a JOBO drum and an inexpensive motor base like the Beseler or something that will spin the thing for you. Please tell me you're not doing DBI are you? I mean, a 15 watt green safelight? Didn't they know about time and temp back in the 1920's?
BTW, you have probably started out with the perfect format. I really don't recommend starting out with 4x5. I'd go with 5x7 or 8x10 and skip 4x5 completely. It's way too small. Now that you've shed your blood on 5x7, why step down? You see it ain't so tough after all, right? So stay big (I'm sure there are folks here that would consider 8x10 'small', but they all live in small shacks in the woods and mutter to themselves so we can discount their opinions). I love 5x7 and now I just shoot that and 8x10 in LF. 4x5's are too small to make a decent contact print and if you're going to enlarge them, why not enlarge 5x7 instead? 20 sq. in. vs 35 sq. in. - easy choice.
In the good old days, when fishermen went out to sea and caught their first tuna, they would wipe blood from the kill on the faces of the initiates. You have been baptized in blood, an honorable passage into the world of LF. Do you have the courage to enter the world of the Zone System or BTZS?
Bless you and welcome. You are a man now.

I am hoping to add a new bike to the stable this spring, and my mind is turning back to the idea of a singlespeed. Cyclocross SS's appeal to me because you can run fatter tires, knobbies, etc., plus I'm very comfortable with my ability to adjust canti brakes.
Does anyone out there have any long-term opinions on the San Jose? What has held up well, what hasn't etc.? Any issues with the crank or wheelset? My commute has a little bit of climbing, so I'm wary about cranking the crap out of it.
Those of you who commute singlespeed- do you have a ton of hills to contend with? How long did it take you to get comfortable with no gears?

3 Days in Marrakech
Romantic Guide to Marrakech
Shopping Guide for Marrakech
We went to Amanjena one evening for the Thai food. We ate outside in front of the lake with 3/4 local musicians providing background music.
We had stir-fried beef and a green curry - authentic flavours but quite salty. The beef was a bit chewy too.
Lovely ambience though and top notch service.
we thoroughly enjoyed the comfort, ambience , and excellent drinks, the food was amazing.
I visited a few luxury hotel in Marrakech, but the service of Amanjena was the best.
This fantastic dining experience last over 3 hours and we would have stayed longer if we can. Dinner at amanjena is an experience you will not forget!!!
I came here with my fiancé for my birthday meal as I am a sex and the city fan! And I was so pleased we went. It's stunning and the food the staff the atmosphere was magical!
Certainly I do not regret the money spent for the good Thai dinner we had at Amanjena, good service and ambience ( even if was lacking of atmosphere....)There were only 5 tables dining, in a big saloon..., but I consider really exaggerated the bill I paid... at the level of a 3 stars Michelin restaurant in London...
My family and I were staying in the Medina at a Riad but decided to splurge and go to dinner at Amanjena. The food and drinks were amazing and the staff was so gracious and took care of us during our entire visit. They gave us a tour of the resort and let our children play instruments with the staff....
had dinner at amanjena and absolutely loved it.
a 20 minute drive from downtown for the best
This is one hell of a place and worth a visit !!!
From the moment you arrive here you are treated like royalty but it is rather expensive. However, it is our third visit and well worth it. Enjoy......
Go for the thai food, it's very good and the service is goos too, love the moroccan wine
Food is very good
Service is perfect
Staff very nice
Special thanks to Mr.Omar who looked after us

A rare winter storm dumped up to a foot of snow around the Southeast on Thursday and Friday, left thousands without power, and played a role in at least one death.
In central Alabama, hundreds of people spent a cold night trapped on Interstate 65 in Cullman County after snow caused a series of wrecks that snarled traffic for miles.
Hundreds of cars and 18-wheelers were at a standstill on an 8-mile stretch of the highway early Friday.
The backup began Thursday afternoon as a winter storm blanketed the area with as much as 4 inches of snow.
"Weather like this is so unusual for us," said Cindy Parker, who works at a Shell gasoline station just off I-65 in Cullman.
A foot of snow in Virginia
In Virginia, the National Weather Service reported 13 inches of snow in Giles County, while Grayson County and the Galax area received about a foot.
Parts of Mississippi received 2 to 4 inches of snow.
More freezing temperatures are predicted next week.

7 Red Casino
7Red Casino is one of the most popular casinos at the moment, attracting moreover a very cosmopolitan clientele. Powered by the software technology of Betsoft Gaming, 7Red Casino specializes in the promotion of three dimensional slot machines, which represent the major attraction of this online gambling site. 7Red Casino is licensed to operate its services by the Online Gaming Licensing Committee of Belize: the jurisdiction of this body thus also extends to Costa Rica.
All the games typically found in the best online casinos are offered on 7Red Casino: Blackjack, American and European Roulette, and card and table games, among which one can find exciting slot machines and Video Poker games in 3D. Other games like Keno, Craps or even Sic Bo are available on this site. However, the cream of the crop of 7Red Casino is its electronic slot machines i-Slots, which have been specially designed by the developer Betsoft. Players will be well-pleased with the interactive environment that awaits them.
The partnership with the array of software of Betsoft Gaming has certainly given a boost to the results achieved by this operator. The 3D machines consist of sumptuous graphics and the decor is simply marvelous. Betsoft software is powerful and reliable. Unfortunately, however, it isn't possible to download it via the lobby, a simple online Flash version being the only option for playing. So this is a big shortcoming, which 7Red Casino succeeds, however, in overcoming with its attractive bonus and promotional offers.
The 7Red promotions are interesting. An enrolment offer of 100 percent on your first deposit can save you up to €100 (after tax). You will receive this money within twenty-four hours after your first payment is made. Other bonuses are provided in the form of tokens, which may not, however, be used for cash withdrawals. A VIP Club is also present: there are four rankings to surmount, but to qualify for the higher categories it is necessary to make progressively more substantial deposits of money. The VIP Club allows you to benefit from gifts, travel, event tickets and additional bonuses.
Payment Methods
For effectuating your deposits and withdrawals, 7Red Casino has the means in place: VISA and MasterCard credit cards as well as other electronic payment solutions such as NETeller. These methods are secured by 128-bit SSL data encryption technology. Moreover, the company TST declares 7Red Casino in compliance in terms of the protection and security of its site.

Reviews of St Therese Home
Average Rating: 2.0 out of 5 stars based on 2 Reviews
I am a friend or relative of resident
My father was at St. Therese for 1 year. I am an R.N., and I feel that it was the best place I could have placed him as nursing homes go. My only issue was that they overfed him. He had to be fed, and he gained 30 pounds in one year. He was 5'8inches, and when he died his waist was 46 ". He had trouble breathing. Even after asking them to cut down, they said it was because he liked to eat. Youn will always get better care for your loved one if you as a family are "present", and are an advocate for them. I would choose St. Therese again.
I visited this facility
Not a safe place. Often times one nurse is caring for fifty residents. They only staff appropriately when the health department comes in once a year. Rude management.

After a pair of fast 2010 races, 'things are good so far' for Usain Bolt
Usain Bolt on his way to a 9.86 win in the Daegu World Challenge meeting (Getty Images) © Copyright
"Hi Folks,
"Hello from China where I have come for the IAAF Diamond League meeting in Shanghai. Things are good so far and I hope to put on a good show for the Chinese fans on Sunday. This is my second race in Asia having won the 100m in Daegu in Korea on Wednesday. The Asian people have given me a great reception so far and I enjoy competing here. Next week I go to Ostrava (27 May) where I will run the 300m.
"My season got off to a great start. Our club team Racers Track Club, representing Jamaica, won the Penn Relays 4x100m in a new meet record – thanks to Mario Forsythe, Yohan Blake, and Marvin Anderson for getting the baton to me in the lead and not giving me too much work to do. Coach Glen Mills had us well drilled before the meet and we provided quite a treat for the over 54,000 screaming fans, lots of whom were Jamaicans, who helped to hype up the atmosphere. Hope to see you guys come out to support in the New York meet in a few weeks.
"Off track I have been watching the NBA playoffs and supporting Kevin Garnett and the Boston Celtics who now have a 2-0 lead over the Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference finals. I will try to watch the Champions League final on Sunday morning but as Manchester United are out it does not have the same appeal for me. Since I have been here everyone has been asking who will win the World Cup. I am not sure – Spain and Brazil are hotly tipped but I have always been an Argentina supporter so I will stick with them. It will be interesting to see who comes out as the star of the tournament – I hope Sir Alex is watching closely as we could use a few more players!
"Over the last few months I have been busy with a few new business ventures. My new Puma Usain Bolt clothing line will be launched soon and last night we announced a partnership with Swiss watch company Hublot. They have a diamond watch that costs $1 million – I better keep saving for that one. I also entered an agreement to open a sports bar in Kingston later this year called Usain Bolt " Tracks & Records" so if you are in Jamaica please check it out. Just before the Kingston meet we opened the Lightning Bolt track at the University of West Indies in Mona in association with German company BSW Regupol. They made the track in Berlin and yes, mine is blue as well.
"Until next time, lata and "to de world".
One Love,

Greenpeace activists in EU summit stuntComment on this story
Brussels -
Greenpeace activists on Friday successfully climbed and attached themselves to a high-rise construction site just metres way from where dozens of world leaders were assembled for an EU summit.
For almost three hours, four activists stretched out a banner denouncing the bloc's energy policies and close ties with oil and energy companies.
Police observed the scene from the foot of the building site as EU leaders, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the president of Ukraine, arrived at the summit venue next door.
The stunt took place at the site of what will be the new offices of the European Council, the EU institution that brings together the leaders of the bloc's 28 member states.
Greenpeace said 35 activists from six countries were involved in the stunt, which included an early morning effort to block traffic leading to the Brussels district that hosts almost all of the EU's major institutions.
The streets surrounding the summit location are closed off whenever leaders meet, but the neighbouring construction site remained outside the security perimeter, police said. - Sapa-AFP

UC Riverside Named to Princeton Review Green College List
Survey profiles schools that demonstrate exemplary commitments to sustainability in their academics, campus infrastructure, activities, and career preparation
By Ross French on April 18, 2014
Share this article:
UC Riverside was one of 332 schools honored by the Princeton Review for its commitment to sustainability.
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — The Princeton Review's Guide to 332 Green Colleges: 2014 Edition, has recognized the University of California, Riverside as one of the top green colleges in North America. This survey was conducted in collaboration with the Center for Green Schools at the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and appears in the annual, downloadable book that was released on April 17, 2014.
UCR's received a green rating of 93 points out of a possible 99. UCR has appeared in the guide in each of the five years it has been published.
"UCR is proud to have been included once again in Princeton Review Green College Guide – our fifth year in a row to make it," said Director of Sustainability John Cook. "Next year we will move the needle with 4 MW of on-site solar, 16 LEED Certified Buildings and a 3% reduction in overall potable water use."
The Princeton Review chose the schools for this guide based on a 50-question survey it conducted in 2013 of administrators at hundreds of four-year colleges across the United States and Canada. Survey data included the schools' course offerings, campus infrastructure, activities and career preparation to measure their commitment to the environment and to sustainability.
"Among 10,116 college applicants who participated in our 2014 'College Hopes & Worries Survey,' 61% said having information about a school's commitment to the environment would influence their decision to apply to or attend the school," said Rob Franek, senior VP/publisher of The Princeton Review. "To all students seeking to study and live at 'green' colleges we strongly recommend these schools."
In the survey report, UCR was commended for:
- Spending 17% of food budget spent on local/organic food.
Providing transportation alternatives, including:
- indoor and secure bike storage, shower facilities and lockers for bicycle commuters.
- a school developed bicycle plan.
- free or reduced price transit passes and/or free campus shuttle.
- A formal sustainability committee.
- 18% of new construction is LEED-certified.
- 50% waste-diversion rate.
- Sustainability-focused degree available.
- 10% of students required to take a sustainability course.
The Princeton Review created its "Guide to 332 Green Colleges" in partnership with the Center for Green Schools (www.usgbc.org) at the U.S. Green Building Council.

"Hanoi" Hanoi by Martialsk
Hanoi Travel Guide: 2,846 reviews and 6,315 photos
I don't know where to start with this one! I didn't initially like Hanoi at all. A city with a chilly somewhat unfriendly vibe, people cold and aloof, grey hazy skies, frenetic and chaotic streets and noise - a lot of incessant moped horn noise. We were to spend a week here and within the first couple of hours I was enough. I really cannot explain why I took an instant dislike to Hanoi. Other travellers I had met along the way had decided which city they preferred between Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi and rarely did they like both - it was always one or the other! Such contrasting cities that cannot be easily compared to one another - but I guess I know I'm in the Ho Chi Minh club. A huge urban sprawl with an instantly likeable edge, Ho Chi Minh City instantly drew me into its clutches. Hanoi was the exact opposite.
Perhaps some of it was because Hanoi is the capital of epic scams and it's widely publicised to a point where paranoia probably had a little to do with my initial dislike. It is particularly famous for pulling extraordinarily elaborate hotel and short-trip scams to fiddle money out of unsuspecting travellers. It was our last stop and the last stop tends to be the one where one's guard drops and complacency sets in. I don't know but I'm still trying to understand why I would develop this totally baseless and undefined opinion about a place I know so little about!
Vietnam's capital city and second largest city with a population of approx 7 million, Hanoi has been Vietnam's most important political city for just over 1,000 years but has been inhabited in one way or another for over 3,000 years. It has an impressive history and its political record was marred only briefly by Hue, when it was the capital city during the Nguyen Dynasty. However, Hanoi was considered the capital of French Indochina from 1887 - 1954 even though Hue 'technically' remained the country's capital until 1945. Between 1940 - 45, the Japanese sat resident in Hanoi until they were kicked out…only to be replaced by the French who fancied a second round of colonialism. By now, Vietnam was really enough of foreign intervention, having spent years and years fighting off Chinese expansion before France decided on a piece of the action pre-WW1 and Japan during the war era. After 9 years of conflict, the Vietnamese finally managed to boot the French out for good and in 1954, after the French vacated, Hanoi became the capital of independent North Vietnam. Then, just to keep things moving progressively forward, the battle began between North & South and the Americans which went on until 1976 when victory prevailed and the city became the capital of a united Vietnam.
Ho Chi Minh, the larger of the two cities, continues to angle for the top job believing that it's big enough and perfectly deserving of the title, so it is questionable how long Hanoi will be able to hold on to it's position as the official capital city.
We experienced 2 major problems on our return from our brief excursion to Ha Long Bay which only served to reinforce my immediate dislike of this city.
We hadn't booked any accommodation in advance of our return from Halong, naively thinking we'd get something when we got back to town. Big mistake! From door to door we marched, each hotel offering extortionate rates, or full up. Our best bet turned out to be a family room on the 4th floor of a nasty looking place down a dark dingy alleyway.
Since we'd struggled to find somewhere to live that night and the dump we had found wasn't particularly palatable, we decided to head back to the hotel that we'd stayed on the night of our first arrival in Hanoi. What we didn't know was that one of our party, who had stayed with us that first night but hadn't joined us for Ha Long Bay, had had some problems checking out of this hotel after we'd successfully checked out a few hours before. They attempted to swindle her out of US$50 by claiming that the bill hadn't been paid (it was all paid online) and refused to give her back her passport. Thankfully, she's a clever girl and tricked them into giving the passport over before swiftly running out of the hotel with all her baggage! So, when we turned up, they started going on about this 'unpaid' bill demanding us to pay up. A brusque NO was our response after which we stomped off down the street back to the seedy hostel we'd found earlier. The fact that they didn't attempt to chase our friend down the street - or us for that matter - just went to show that it was all a load of cobblers and they were trying to pull a fast one.
Therefore, we were forced to return to that hole of a hostel that we'd located earlier because by now it was dark, and we needed a bed.
Our 2nd problem occurred later that night. We all returned to the hovel after an early dinner after which the 2 boys decided to go out again whilst my friend and I opted for an early night in. After a cold shower, which was a lovely end to a long day, we put our ear-plugs in to block out the street noise and promptly went to sleep. My friend woke up to someone attempting to enter our room at about 11pm. She thought it was the boys coming home and got out of bed thinking she'd had maybe locked them out and they couldn't get in. It was somewhat of a shocker for her when she came face to face with a complete stranger who was attempting to enter to 'recover his jumper' which was hanging in the wardrobe! Or so he said. More like he knocked, no one answered and it was a perfect opportunity to have a snoop around to see what could be successfully stolen. I slept through all of this. My friend on the other hand, had an absolutely rotten, unsettled night. We needed to get out of this place as a matter of urgency.
Thankfully, the hotel we ended up finding was fine for the duration of our stay in Hanoi and the staff were absolutely perfect. We were lucky - but I remained nervous and edgy for a few days afterwards, convinced that bad things happen in 3's and we just hadn't had the 3rd piece of rotten luck yet…!
In the meantime, we found our haunts: a great little local restaurant serving very good food at great prices, a nice little bar just nearby with outdoor seating and superb staff, a street bbq joint for something different and a street bar complete with baby chairs placed precariously on a busy junction for late-night beer-swilling sessions whilst observing the world fly by on their mopeds.
Sadly enough, we even frequented the local backpackers hovel as it was only a few doors down - a joint fully of smelly, unclean backpackers - the type that believe being unwashed, partly sober and rough-looking is integral to the travelling experience! However, the beer was cheap, the cocktails tolerable (only after fishing out the huge piles of fruit, veg…and ice…!) and on some days, even the company was pretty good too!
We walked - a lot. Around the Old Town where we lived, soaking up sights and smells, popping in and out of little shops, avoiding vendors selling their wares, avoiding being run-over by crazy mopeds, yelling at them to get off those godforsaken horns for just a minute so I could locate my mind which had gone into hiding for all the noise around us, whilst ensuring that we did't get run over by taxis and cars that insisted on driving through the narrowest streets known to mankind! Then, purely by choice, on every other day we would shove and grunt our way through the throngs of Vietnamese people at the markets, looking for good deals on trinkets, after which we would walk around the backstreets and suburbs, around the Lake in the middle of town only to return to battle the Old Town hordes. We did wander over to the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum where Uncle Ho's body lies in state in a crystal coffin but it was closed for annual 'repairs'. Such a shame. So, we went to the Museum instead.
The Ho Chi Minh Museum was interesting - a dedication to the life and work of Uncle Ho…even if they did decide to chuck us out after 10 minutes because they were closing up for lunch…at 10.30am…The bit we did see was fascinating and Ho Chi Minh himself was quite a remarkable character. He is a very important piece of Vietnamese modern history and he was also a major-dobo in the shaping of the modern Vietnam we see today.
In spite of it being such a hectic, stressful place, I finally grew to respect Hanoi. However, even after a week there, I still did not particularly like it and I was very pleased to be heading back to the familiarity of Hong Kong island again. There, I knew I'd be at home.
Vietnam has been the most unbelievable experience of a lifetime. So fulfilling, rewarding, enjoyable and challenging. I don't miss the mopeds and their incessant hooting, the crazy driving, the lack of basic hygiene practices, spitting and rude, offhand people. Saying that, I walk away yet again with the most remarkable memories & experiences of many days on the road that have served to broaden my outlook on the world, her people and life in general. I am but inconsequential in comparison to the grand scheme of things and my problems are small.
- Pros:central city, vibrant, hectic
- Cons:very touristy in parts, stressful, loud
- In a nutshell:shopping, shoving, noisy...this is living

text: I know the Bayesian formula is given by the ff: P(Ei|A) = P(A | Ei) * P (Ei) / summation of P (A | En) * P (En) over n however how do you solve this type of problem: The probability of a person having a disease is 5%, The probability of testing negative in a checkup given that you have a disease is 2% (the test is not accurate, hence this result). The probability of testing positive given that you do not have the disease is 10% Tim takes the test 10 times, only one of which returns positve, what is the probability that Tim has the disease? that is what is P(disease | 9 tests results negative and 1 test results positive)? any hints would be great, thanks.


text: I was in the same boat as you a few months ago, trying to choose a rangefinder. IIRC KEH was selling M7 bodies for about the same price as the Zeiss one lens and hood kit. I went with the brand new option with a three year warentee and larger viewfinder. I got the ZI 28mm kit and purchased the 50mm f2 later. I have no regrets.

I have been working the WBB1 routine for a couple of months: Mon, Wed, Friday. But I will be in business travel next week and won't do my usual routine. I will be back on Saturday;
what do you recommend to start with when I am back? Hit all muscles/1 set (10-12 reps) in one day-say Sat. or Sunday?
I just don't want to wait 'til Monday to start lifting. I am just worry that I will loose my chest strength, or perhaps not?

The man for me is confident, but can also laugh at himself. He is fit and active and leads a healthy lifestyle. He is outgoing and spontaneous. His most attractive features are his mischievous eyes and his smile. His kind heart is evident in word and deed. I've worked hard for my happiness and security. I'm looking for a romantic friend and partner with whom I can share the special adventures and the small, everyday pleasures of life. If this sounds interesting to you, please drop me a line!

Land Rights Not Mining Rights – Free Robert Lovelace and the KI 6
Event: Wednesday April 9th, 6 pm
Ryerson Student's Union 55 Gould St (between Victoria and Church)
Featuring Ovide Mercredi, former Grand Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, and members of the KI and Ardoch communities
In a travesty of justice and a grave assault on Aboriginal rights, seven Aboriginal leaders are in jail today for upholding indigenous and Canadian law. In March, Robert Lovelace from Ardoch and Chief Donny Morris of the Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug (KI) community, four councillors and one community member were jailed for six months for contempt of court. In two separate cases, they refused mining exploration on their traditional lands without their permission. Additionally, Robert Lovelace and his community have been hit with huge fines.These Aboriginal leaders were not only protecting indigenous laws, they were also protecting the Canadian constitution as interpreted by the Supreme Court of Canada, which says that governments must consult with Aboriginal Nations before licensing mining exploration on their lands.
The KI Six arguments that the Ontario government has a constitutional responsibility to consult with them before issuing a mining permit in their traditional territories were rejected by the court. The judge in the Ardoch case threw out Robert Lovelace's testimony that he was defending Algonquin Law and responsibilities with respect to human activity in their territory.
"I'm prepared to go to jail for my belief in the land," said KI Chief Donny Morris. "This is a land issue based on our sovereignty and I'm prepared to give myself up if the court decides I've disrespected the November ruling to allow Platinex on our land…"
They should not have to go to jail! Premier Dalton McGuinty should withdraw the licenses issued to these mining companies and free Robert Lovelace and the KI 6. The jailing of these leaders is causing terrible suffering and fear in their communities. KI is a remote northern community that has just lost the majority of its leadership and the Ardoch community is facing fines of $50,000. These leaders are also in jail because their communities are poor and cannot afford fines.
"The message delivered through this court decision is one of domination and oppression," said Chief Paula Sherman of the Ardoch decision.
Support the right of a community to say NO to mineral exploration and mining projects that threaten the health of people and ecosystems. Replace the antiquated 'free entry' system of mining and exploration with a process that grants exploration permits only after consultation with affected First Nations communities, and consideration of competing land uses and values.
Join us to show support for the Ardoch and KI communities, to protest these harsh court decisions, and to demand action from Premier Dalton McGuinty.

Alright, so it seems to me that Dark Souls 2 can be modded.
Without a J-Tag, I mean. Very bottom V 10 of that link.
Now, do you think that the servers keep track of what you have, soul count, effigy, etc?
Just wondering, if anyone has any insight into this.
Results 1 to 10 of 17

Dark Souls 2 Modding, thoughts?
03-14-2014 #2
If I'm not mistaken, but I believe now, what ever your stats and soul level you are, is also the same for the creatures you fight. Which means if you have 9999999... health, so will your enemies, at least non-Jtag wise. Unless anyone knows a work around this, I say the mods just make the game unbeatable. I could be wrong though, I was using the save editor from 360haven, and the monsters scale with you.
03-14-2014 #3
I wrote a whole guide on that thread actually lol.
Stamina and health cannot be boosted past their current "max" limits.
2505 or something for HP and 200 for Stamina.
IF you touch your stats at all with the editor and go online, your save becomes corrupted upon reloading it because of the calibration check every time you load your save.
Also with that editor, anything in your inventory is wiped if you use the "100 items x99" button. Although this should be fixed in the v11 revision.
The "enemies are now super hard" issue is only because people mod their bonfire level which corresponds as if you burnt that one item that boosts difficulty around you.
The only way to boost levels and then maintain online play is to use an empty inventory, click the 100 items button, use the many MANY souls they provide to level ingame.
However your soul level is now very high. (I only have 3 99 stats and my total soul level aka platinum souls is over 53 million).
REOPEN the editor and change your platinum soul level to desired "normal" amount.
You now have the ability to mod levels, you have a ton of items, upgrade items and other useful ****, and you can still play online without the calibration check corrupting your save.
The new revision (v11) SHOULD be adding the ability to choose different save slots and also the beginning of an inventory editor.

I forget which one I'm running, but it has a button to switch to the jtag controls.
I think they're all pretty much straightforward.
V11 is a bit behind though. :c

03-15-2014 #7
Thanks for the input!
EDIT: So I went ahead and used it, it works perfectly. I DID NOT edit my stats cause I kinda wanted to beat it without that. I just wanted a unfair advantage in early game items. Simply using the 100 to x99 button and injecting worked. No corruption, and could still go online. I would recommend this to other people!

I'm glad it worked for you! I've got a decent amount of time online and since the hp and stamina are technically normal, no one has even suspected anything.
I'll post on here when v11 comes out. Its technically two days behind but the Dev decided to focus on adding a full inventory editor.
Hopefully in future revisions we can see something to bypass the "max" health and stamina
