Additional Information
About Asociación ASDIRASDIR (Asociación de Desarrollo Integral Rural - Association for the Development of Rural Communities) is a community-based organization that works to promote development in the villages and communities where it serves. It was founded in 1999 in the village of Nimasac, Totonicapán Department, by a handful of local men and women to support community projects and group loans. Today ASDIR has 5 offices across 3 departments (Totonicapán, Sololá and Suchitepéquez) serving more than 6,000 clients, most of them in rural communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Loved being picked up at our hotel. Wonderful guides...informative,patient, even in the pouring rain. Not sure how they keep such great attitudes...but it is very much appreciated.
November 2014
The Naple's tour was just for us and then we joined the Pompeii tour. The guide was excellent,well paced, and knowledgeable.
November 2014
This trip is certainly worthwhile if you have never been to Naples or Pompeii. The tour guide was a wealth of knowledge on Naples and Pompeii. I would strongly recommend this tour.
September 2014
This tour was amazing!
August 2014
We had separate guides for Naples and Pompeii, both were very knowledgeable and keen to provide plenty of information. A very worthwhile experience.
July 2014
Bummer that traffic slowed things down, but overall this is a great way to hit a few highlights in Naples, see Pompei and then get back to Sorrento in time to enjoy the late afternoon and have a nice dinner. Definitely a must.
July 2014
We had the best time on the Naples/Pompeii tour with Viator. Andrew was an excellent guide and very well informed about Naples and Pompeii. We had such a fun time. We will remember Pompeii forever as Andrew brought it alive with his speaking tour!!! Our van driver and hotel pickup driver were the best drivers ever. thank you so much. We will recommend this tour to all our friends and to anyone wishing to visit Naples and Pompeii.
September 2013
The Naples visit was a little on the short side, although The Basilca St Genaro was interesting and Pompeii was very very good and most important the guide Andrea I think his name is, he was very good in giving interesting information
June 2013
Very interesting with excellent guide
October 2012
Thanks to our guide Andrea! He provided excellent commentary and managed a large group with ease. The hotel pick-up made it really easy to access the tour from Sorrento.

Mni Sota: Reflections of Time and Place
It's been less than a year since All My Relations Gallery, the bright yellow building on Franklin at 14th, opened as the new home for All My Relations Arts, a program now under the umbrella of the Native American Community Development Institute (NACDI). The gallery is part of its long-range plan to rebrand Franklin Avenue as the American Indian Cultural Corridor. As talented and often cutting-edge artists have shown work there, the space has become a hotspot for some terrific talents such as Bobby Wilson, Frank Big Bear, and Emily Johnson. This month, the gallery is the starting point for the traveling exhibit "Mni Sota: Reflections of Time and Place," which features artists engaging in a dialogue between traditional and contemporary practices. Francis Yellow explains that "tradition" is a Western concept, so the images he creates are not symbolic or representational, but about a way of life. Yellow is one of 17 artists—including Gwen Westerman, Bobby Wilson, and Greg Bellanger—who will be showing work that both embraces traditional practices and emerges on new contemporary ground. After the show's run in Minneapolis, the exhibition will travel to various parts of Minnesota, including the Mille Lacs Indian Museum and the Tweed Museum in Duluth. It will then return to Minneapolis in February at the Katherine E. Nash Gallery. The opening reception is from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, November 4. (Todd Bordeaux, Reservation Diabetes Dispensers)

I have the following Wordpress theme (see below) and I need to make a couple of minor changes:
[obscured] -junkie.com/themes/videoplus/
1) The first thing I need to correct is the way the site posts to Facebook. The theme autogenerates thumbnails from youtube and vimeo, but doesn't automatically add those images to the 'featured images' area in wordpress. I need to fix that so that it's not necessary for me to add an image to the content of the post before adding to facebook. As it stands, whenever I post to Facebook, the autogenerated image doesn't post, leaving me to do double work by posting an image in the body. I'm sure there's a wordpress plugin which will fix this fairly quickly, but I don't have time to search.
2) The current theme only adds thumbnails of the videos underneath the featured slider, but I would like to add three rows above the video thumbnails, each with a graphic representing a specific category. For example, I have one "Politics" graphic wh...

I'm in love with these Chicken and Broccoli Pinwheels and I'll tell you why. It's like I took a whole meal and wrapped it in a flaky, buttery crust. It covers all the dinner bases – broccoli (check), chicken (check), creamy garlic sauce (check), crispy French fried onion topping (check), and delicious crescent roll (check).
Top each pinwheel with a little crunch! Coat 1/2 a cup of French fried onions with 1 tablespoon of melted butter and place a spoonful on top of each pinwheel. Switch it up by using panko breadcrumbs instead if you don't like the onions.
Let them cook until they're golden brown and delicious. Everyone will love these quick and easy pinwheel bake!
As a mom of four, Shawn is b-u-s-y, but she almost always manages to put a delicious dinner on the table. She loves simple, good-tasting meals and sweet treats that use as few dishes as possible.

2 States (Book) - Chetan BhagatThe book and the story: As the top of the cover itself says "2 States – The story of my marriage" – you can imagine what it's all about. I still have no idea about him and his life yet but but I can tell you one thing about him after reading this book that I guess this is his own life story and I am sure Chetan Bhagat is one hopelessly romantic guy, who is madly in love with his wife – so much so that he just can't stop bragging about her and this book is nothing but the same story told in a typical filmy way but it's simply amazing. People who have read the book especially the guys and thos… (Expand)

Well thaught title2 States is an appropriate title given to this book. The book is all about 2 people who are from different states, who are in love with each other and wants to get married. As they are from different states their parents did not approve for their marriage. Krish and Ananya decides (name of the characters) to convince each others parents for their marriage. The story revolves around how orthodox people are there in India who do not allow people from 2 different castes to get married.

One important action is to make sure that nursing and admitting staff correctly code patients who arrive at the hospital with an existing pressure ulcer; coding the pressure ulcer as present on admission will help ensure that Crouse is not blamed for causing it, says Jennifer Watkins, Crouse's director of quality improvement.
"Especially with patients coming from a nursing home, for example, if we don't take the opportunity to do a full assessment in the beginning, a pressure ulcer may appear to be a hospital-acquired condition, when in fact the patient came in with skin already starting to break down," Watkins, says.
And Crouse's rates of severe decubitus ulcers are dropping. Hospital officials say the latest update shows Crouse's rates of pressure ulcers at 0.447. It's not zero yet because the rolling evaluation period still captures the time frame when Crouse's pressure ulcer rates were higher.
At Adventist Sonora (Calif.) Regional Medical Center, which has 72 acute care beds, pressure ulcer rates were almost as high those at Crouse for that period, at 0.645 per 1,000 eligible discharges. Sonora Regional had the distinction of having the 114th highest number of pressure ulcers on Hospital Compare.
"We recognized we had a problem," says Dixie Hukari, Sonora's executive director of quality management. "But with a number of interventions, we haven't had a patient with a hospital-acquired stage 3 or stage 4 pressure ulcer since May 2011."
They initiated turning schedules, began using moisture barriers for vulnerable parts of patients' skin surfaces, and initiated a campaign called the PUP, or Pressure Ulcer Prevention, program.
How hospitals deal with severe bedsores and seven other HACs from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality PSI-90 list is increasingly important. They're now folded into two pay-for-performance programs under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The AHRQ PSI-90 counts for 35% of the 1% Medicare base DRG hospital-acquired condition penalty, and counts for about 6% of the value-based purchasing incentive program, provided that the hospital has a minimum number of cases for all measures in the equation. Poorly performing hospitals will see downward adjustments to their reimbursements starting Oct. 1, 2014.
To be sure, it's a bad thing for a hospital like Sonora, which serves a large retirement community, if there's a penalty for having too many pressure ulcers and other preventable HACs. It means a loss of important revenue, Hukari says.

Isle of Man Post Office

Area served
|Isle of Man, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Worldwide

|Isle of Man Government
|This article is part of a series on the
politics and government of
the Isle of Man
The Isle of Man Post Office (Manx: Oik Postagh Ellan Vannin), which formerly used the trading name Isle of Man Post, operates postal collection, ancillary mail services, philatelic goods and delivery services and post office counter services on the Isle of Man.
The Isle of Man's postal service was originally operated by the United Kingdom's General Post Office, with a daily postal connection with the UK since 1879. In 1966 the UK Government commenced planning to convert the General Post Office into a public corporation, and as part of this process offered each of the Crown Dependencies the opportunity to assume control of the operations of the GPO on their territories. On 18 October 1968, Tynwald decided that they did not wish to take up the offer, but provision was made in the Post Office Act 1969 nonetheless.
In the Channel Islands, the authorities did accept the offer, and postal and telecommunications activities of the GPO were transferred in October 1969 to form Jersey Post and Guernsey Post (telecoms activities were transferred to Jersey Telecom and Guernsey Telecoms).
In 1972, following negotiations by Tynwald to have the telephone system excluded from the transfer, it was agreed that the Isle of Man would, after all, take over control of the insular postal administration. As a result, the Isle of Man Post Office Authority was formed and took over the postal assets and functions of the Post Office on 5 July 1973. The monies paid for the assets of the Post Office, £148,624, were recouped within the first year from the surpluses generated by the Authority. It was reconstituted as a Statutory Board and renamed the 'Isle of Man Post Office' under the Post Office Act 1993.
Telecommunications remained the responsibility of the British Post Office until 1981, when British Telecom was created. In 1987, telecommunications were transferred to the local company Manx Telecom, which was initially a wholly owned subsidiary of BT, but became a subsidiary of O2.
Stamps marked with the name of the Isle of Man were first issued in 1971; the first issue was a variant of the 'Machin' design. Since 1973 only Manx stamps have been valid on the island, and Manx stamps are not valid for postage in the UK or elsewhere. Isle of Man stamps have since become popular with philatelists.
Postal rates[edit]
When sending mail to the Island from elsewhere, the Isle of Man is treated as though it were part of the United Kingdom, and mail from the UK continues to be charged at Royal Mail's UK inland rates. However, postcodes were not introduced in the Isle of Man until 1993, when the Island was postcoded as the IM postcode area as an extension of the United Kingdom postcode system.[2]
Mail sent from the Island to the UK is flown across the Irish Sea, and enters the first-class stream of the Royal Mail for next-day delivery.[3]
The Isle of Man Post Office is a member of the Small European Postal Administration Cooperation.

The Campagnolo Sportswear Stripes Gloves are all about aesthetics, through and through. Sure, they live up to all of the tech-hound classifications of Campy's Technical Gear System line, but we love them because of their unique blend of the classical and the modern. Every kit can use a splash of color, or in this case, six colors.
The Campagnolo Sportswear Stripes Gloves feature a full Lycra back with a Perforated Lycra insert near the wrist for moisture transfer. Campy added anti-vibration gel padding on the palm of the gloves, and a sweat-absorbent insert on the back of the thumb for those necessary brow wipes.
The Campagnolo Sportswear Stripes Gloves are available in sizes Small through XXX-Large, and in colors Black, Lake, Orange, and Titanium.

How do I know how to fit the OS cloth diapers. Does a red mark mean it hurts my DS? What about indentations? I wish he could tell me what feels right....
BumGenius OS - red marks?

I use the same diapers, and my DD has not had red marks. I suggest just trying it looser and only tighten it if he leaks out.

Thanks so much for your response. Do you have the snaps or Velcro?

Disliked valet parking and was also displeased to have to pay $15.00 per day for parking. I booked two rooms and was pleased with my view of the ocean and beach from my balcony; my son and his wife, however, had no view at all in the second room booked. Our rooms were clean, but had been told at the hot tub/pool area by others that their room left a lot to be desired. I would, however, consider using this hotel if I were in the area again.
Location was nice. Decent value. HBO. Large rooms.
15$ extra EACH night for parking is ridiculous. Had issues with charging parking to my room. Thin walls, can hear kids screaming. Rooms not as clean and they should be. Found rust in my shower. AC unit was noisy.
Peacefulness and pool with jacuzzi. Customer service as well
Paying for be sitting by the ocean. Make me feel not to be in a private area.
Rust even on the night stand w appearance of the feces, paint is bubbled on the walls, my style odor, old bedding sheets are not changed.
On the beach. Staff friendly. Shuttle van took us to where we wanted to go for a small per person charge so we didn't have to drive.
Couldn't bring own cooler to the beach. Parking fee. Sheets on bed were a bit scratchy. Had to take a piece of paper and your room key with you every time you wanted to get something from the bar. Room key would have been just fine.
There really is no better location in the Fort Lauderdale area. A very standard Hotel, not luxurious, but the pool and the hot tub and the beach are fantastic. We've done five vacations here. Very family friendly hotel, expect children playing in the pool. This is not a quiet getaway but more of a fun time
The location is very good it's just some steps from the beach and also it has many option to go eat outside the hotel
The security outside instead of checking who has a cooler going to the beach with beer could start checking for the safety of the guest on the pool instead, also there is no music outside in the pool area and the bar is not good at all. The American coffe matching was broken and the coffee was not good
This hotel is right on the beach on a quieter stretch of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, so it is good for families and those who don't want to hassle with finding public beach access.
The room was clean, but a little dated (microwave, furniture just didn't look modern). According to a local, the hotel was torn up by the last hurricane so a lot has been remodeled (the lobby, elevators), but the rooms could use some updating. The concierge was very nice, the check-in desk staff were very competent but could be nicer. The tiki bar/pool area was closed after dark. The pool I get, but there is a hot-tub that would have been nice to use as the day cooled off. I was surprised the bar was closed, we were going to get drinks but that wasn't an option. Seems like a lot of lost revenue.
Very close to the beach...the pool and jacuzzi are nice ...great location centered around food and shops
My biggest complaint is the mattress....way to soft....the tv is small ..The balcony door rattles..
It was an average hotel which was beachfront. That was the best part considering the nightly cost, it was decent. Nothing special.
Rooms were not very clean: patched walls, tile work in bathroom with grout poorly covering up areas that were being worked on. Construction in the hallway kept us from sleeping in late.
Price and location.
No sun at the pool except at high noon. And they charge for the spots that have sun all day. Bar tender measured a glass of wine out by ounce and said 5 ounces was close enough to 6! It's old and needs updating. Also, no breakfast at all. The little restaurant they had wanted $10 for only a Ham and cheese omelette. staff at the front counter was lost. The valet at the hotel actually did very good. Elevators were newer and nice also. And the pool was actually nice along with the hot tub. It's just they're going to nickel and dime you to death even charging for the only spots that have sun around the pool.
The price. The beach location is very nice.
We were never told the pool was CLOSED for complete redo and only offered 2 drinks as compensation. The walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors. Also, surprise charge of $15/day to self-park.
Beach access
The pool was closed for maintenance and it's been for months, no playground in the beach like the pictures show and got stuck in the elevator and all the front desk guy said was oh I am sorry to hear that
Easy access to the beach
Have to pay parking, did not clean well, rude staff
available rooms
rates seemed to change every day nobody used any of the restaurants, why?

Advise and Consent (1959)
by Allen Drury
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Actually a pretty decent read. The tale of a controversial nominee for Secretary of State is quite timeless, as are the political infighting and behind the scenes machinations.
Interesting subject, but the cast of characters is too large and it moves rather slowly.
Recommended for Hill staffers and fans of the West Wing/House of Cards.
Each year since 1944 I have picked a book of the year--the book deemed by me at the end of the year as the best book I read that year. This book was the best book I read in 1960, a year in which I read 33 books--5 fiction and 28 non-fiction. This book was fiction, but I really ate it up because it was about political matters and politics has been a prime interest of mine since I was 8 years old.
It took me a long time to get through this book due to all sorts of ongoing events in my day-to-day life, but it was well worth sticking with this 760-page fascinating novel about the U.S. Senate. The book centers around a controversial presiodential nomination for a new Secretary of State. The question is, does this man have the stuff to stand up to the Russians during the height of the cold war. The book delves into the pasts and personalities of several key senators and in the process shows the workings of the Senate during such a procedure. Of course reading this story set in 1959, one wonders how much the standards of etiquette, courtesy and mutual respect are still observed in today's fractious political times. At any rate, the story here flows very, very well indeed. The book is compelling and the plot believable. Nobody is all good or all bad. This book won a Pulitzer Prize and one can well see why. The only drawback might be that the characters are drawn with just a touch of cliche sometimes, and are not quite as deeply realized as I think Drury was hoping for. Plus at times the book gets a bit preachy. But that's why I give this book 4 1/2 stars rather than the full five. Advise and Consent is a time commitment and something of a time capsule. I do recommend it highly for anyone who thinks a novel about the American political system, even in 1959, might be interesting.
Somewhat aged, but still good to read, especially for a Washingtonian

admin: searching in change list causes traceback when you use column sorting
|Reported by:

|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:

|Easy pickings:
I get the following traceback when sorting the raw_id_admin popup for the Proxy model and then entering a search term:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/core/handlers/base.py" in get_response 74. response = callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/contrib/admin/views/decorators.py" in _checklogin 55. return view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/views/decorators/cache.py" in _wrapped_view_func 40. response = view_func(request, *args, **kwargs) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/contrib/admin/views/main.py" in change_list 739. cl = ChangeList(request, model) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/contrib/admin/views/main.py" in __init__ 570. self.get_results(request) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/contrib/admin/views/main.py" in get_results 628. result_list = list(self.query_set) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/db/models/query.py" in __iter__ 103. return iter(self._get_data()) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/db/models/query.py" in _get_data 430. self._result_cache = list(self.iterator()) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/db/models/query.py" in iterator 172. cursor.execute("SELECT " + (self._distinct and "DISTINCT " or "") + ",".join(select) + sql, params) File "/srv/dev/mpf/nong/third-party/django/django/db/backends/util.py" in execute 12. return self.cursor.execute(sql, params) ProgrammingError at /admin/myapp/proxy/ ERROR: invalid reference to FROM-clause entry for table "myapp_asset" HINT: Perhaps you meant to reference the table alias "myapp_proxy__asset". SELECT "myapp_proxy"."id","myapp_proxy"."asset_id","myapp_proxy"."port" FROM "myapp_proxy" INNER JOIN "myapp_asset" AS "myapp_proxy__asset" ON "myapp_proxy"."asset_id" = "myapp_proxy__asset"."id" WHERE ((("myapp_proxy__asset"."name" ILIKE '%foo%' OR "myapp_proxy"."port" ILIKE '%foo%'))) ORDER BY "myapp_asset"."id" ASC
The models definitions are:
from django.db import models class Asset(models.Model): name = models.CharField(maxlength=16) def __str__(self): return "%s" % self.name class Admin: pass class Proxy(models.Model): asset = models.ForeignKey(Asset) port = models.PositiveIntegerField(blank=True, null=True) def __str__(self): return "%s" % self.asset.name class Admin: list_display = ('asset', 'port') search_fields = ('asset__name', 'port') class Connection(models.Model): asset = models.ForeignKey(Asset, editable=False, edit_inline=models.TABULAR) method = models.CharField(maxlength=16, core=True) transport = models.CharField(maxlength=16) proxy = models.ForeignKey(Proxy, raw_id_admin=True, blank=True, null=True) class Admin: pass
Steps to reproduce:
1) Create an Asset called "foo" and save it
2) Add a new asset called "bar" and click on the magnifying glass next to inline edited connection.
3) Add a proxy object with asset foo and port 123. This will set the proxy id in the asset add page.
4) Click on the magnifying glass again and click on the column heading "Asset" column heading.
5) enter any search term in the search input. Bang!
The same happens if you swap the order of steps 4 and 5.
Strangely enough it works ok if you sort on the port column and then search.

Movie star Pierce Brosnan has his sights set on making a new epic western full of his Irish friends.
The former James Bond star so enjoyed making post-American Civil War period movie SERAPHIM FALLS with countryman Liam Neeson he wants to go further back into US history to visit the Wild West - and he hopes to take a few pals with him.
The Irish actor says, "It's always in the cards. There's a bunch of us Irish fellows who keep saying we should get together and make a western - myself, Gabriel Byrne, Colm Meaney and people like that.
"We'd just like to do an Irish film about the West. I was getting serious about that when, and lo and behold, the script for Seraphim Falls came to me with Liam attached.
"That film just whet my appetite further because it's a western-themed movie.
"I was brought up on the kind of staple of the westerns. I just thought it all had an elegance to it."

Picture samples of the Canon 300mm f/4 L IS with 1.4 teleconverter, vs 400mm f/5.6 L?
May 15, 2012
If someone can post photos from both lenses taken on the same body, preferably all at wide-open aperture, that would be much appreciated. I'd like to see how the 300 f/4 with a TC does against a naked 400 f/5.6.
Also, if someone has already posted such a comparison, a link to that page is fine too.

Picture: Liam Neeson out and about during the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, Day 5 Park City, Utah - 19.01.09
Liam Neeson is squaring up against celebrity animal rights campaigners Pink and Chrissie Hynde over New York's famous horse-drawn carriages.
The singers have joined forces with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to launch a protest against the tourist attraction, claiming the horses are mistreated.
But horse-lover Neeson has stepped up in defence of carriage firms and drivers, insisting the animals are pampered and their owners should be protected.
The actor regularly visits the horses and their owners at the stables on Manhattan's upper west side, and says, "They've been there for a 100 years and they're an iconic part of New York."
He adds, "I know many of these guys and I just hate how the horse-drawn carriage industry is being attacked by animal activists.
"These are the fittest, well-fed, best-kept horses I have ever seen. I'm a horse rider and lover for many years. They have a good life. They work nine-hour days and they have a holiday.
"Seriously. If you've ever seen these stables... I'd move in tomorrow."
His remarks have upset PETA officials, who have fired back with a sarcastic statement: "Liam, maybe you're right, let me ponder this for a moment... It does seem like horses would prefer to endure the freezing cold and the panicky booms, noisy traffic, and exhaust fumes of the city over living in a lush pasture.
"And you're right, they probably much prefer the whips, shouting, heavy gear, traces, and lack of water in the troughs as well as the long shifts trudging for hours and pulling strangers in a half-mile circle all day without rest over living a natural life. Makes sense, right?"

'Eclipse' rises to $82.5M over holiday weekend
|Kristen Stewart and James Pattinson return in 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.' Summit Entertainment
"The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" has risen to an $82.5 million haul over the long Fourth of July weekend and lifted its total to $175.3 million after just six days, according to studio estimates Monday. The vampire romance from Summit Entertainment finished at No. 1 over the four-day weekend, despite a steep drop in its daily take after a $68.5 million start last Wednesday, the second biggest opening day ever.
"Movies that pop this big on opening day, it's virtually impossible to keep up that breakneck pace," said Paul Dergarabedian, box-office analyst for Hollywood.com. "We've seen this with a lot of movies where the first day is their biggest day, then it kind of settles into a more normal pattern."
Coming in second for the weekend with $53.2 million from Friday to Monday was Paramount's action fantasy "The Last Airbender," pushing its total to $70.5 million since opening Thursday. The movie did strong business despite terrible reviews.
Disney's Pixar Animation blockbuster "Toy Story 3," which had been No. 1 the two previous weekends, slipped to third-place with $42.2 million, raising its domestic total to $301.1 million.
"Toy Story 3" shot past last year's "Up" at $293 million to become the No. 2 hit for Pixar, behind only "Finding Nemo" at $339.7 million.
"Eclipse" waned after its huge opening day, with Summit lowering projections for the movie through the weekend. On Sunday, the company was expecting a $181 million total for the movie's first six days, but revenues came in nearly $6 million lower.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Monday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com.
1. "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse," $82.5 million.
2. "The Last Airbender," $53.2 million.
3. "Toy Story 3," $42.2 million.
4. "Grown Ups," $26.5 million.
5. "Knight and Day," $14 million.
6. "The Karate Kid," $11.5 million.
7. "The A-Team," $4.3 million.
8. "Get Him to the Greek," $1.7 million.
9. "Shrek Forever After," $1.3 million.
10. "Cyrus," $1 million.

The road to sustainability has lanes for more than just cars
Download the the transportation roundtable discussion (DivShare)
Transportation is the linchpin of sustainability. Fix the transportation system, and almost every other aspect of the city's ecological health improves: public health, conservation of resources, climate change, economics, and maintaining our culture and sense of community.
The region's unsustainable transportation system is the biggest cause of global warming (more than half the Bay Area's greenhouse gas emissions come from vehicles) and one of the biggest recipients of taxpayer money. And right now, most of those public funds from the state and federal governments are going to expand and maintain freeway systems, a priority that exacerbates our problems and delays the inevitable day of reckoning.
It's going to have to change — and we can do it the easy way or the hard way.
"We'll get to a more sustainable transportation system. The question is, are we going to be smart enough to make quality of life for people high within that sustainable transportation system?" said Dave Snyder, who revived the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition and founded Transportation for a Livable City (now known as Livable City) before becoming transportation policy director for the San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association. "People will drive less, but will they have dignified alternatives? That's the question."
That notion — that transportation sustainability is inevitable, but that it'll be painful if we don't start now in a deliberate way — was shared by all 10 transportation experts recently interviewed by the Guardian. And most agreed that needed reform involves shifting resources away from the automobile infrastructure, which is already crowding out more sustainable options and will gobble up an even bigger piece of the pie in the future if we continue to expand it.
"Yeah, it'll be more sustainable, but will it be just? Will it be healthful? Will it be effective? Those are the questions," said Tom Radulovich, director of Livable City and an elected member of the BART Board of Directors. "You can't argue against geology. The planet is running out of oil. We're going to have a more sustainable transportation system in the future. That's a given. The question is, is it going to meet our other needs? Is it going to be what we need it to be?"
And the answer to all those questions is going to be no — as long as politicians choose to fund wasteful projects such as a fourth bore in the Caldecott Tunnel and transferring $4 billion from transit agencies to close California budget deficits accruing since 2000.
"Our leaders need to be putting our money where our collective mouth is and stop raiding these funds," Carli Paine, transportation program director for Transportation and Land Use Coalition, told us. "I'm hopeful, but I think we all need to do more."
There is reason to be hopeful. With increased awareness of global warming and high gasoline prices, public transit ridership has increased significantly in the Bay Area. And one study indicates that the number of people bicycling in San Francisco has quadrupled in the last few years.
"Look at what's happening on the streets of San Francisco: you have biking practically doubling every year without any new bike infrastructure. I think the demand is out there. The question is, when is the political leadership going to catch up to demand?" Jean Fraser, who sits on the SPUR and SFBC boards and until recently ran the San Francisco Health Plan under Mayor Gavin Newsom, told us.

A&M rebounds with win over Fordham, 84-61
Josh Carter scored 24 points, Antanas Kavaliauskas added 19 and No. 13 Texas A&M beat Fordham 84-61 Tuesday night.COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) --
Texas A&M (8-2) bounced back from losses last week to No. 12 LSU and top-ranked UCLA -- the Aggies' first nonconference losing streak since Billy Gillispie arrived as coach more than two years ago.
Texas A&M led 39-28 at halftime. Kavaliauskas shot 6-for-7 from the field in the first half and had 13 at the break.
Sebastian Green led Fordham (5-4) with 19 points and Marcus Stout finished with 14.
After two rough games last week, Carter was 8-of-10 from the field, including a dunk to start the Aggies' scoring. He also connected on 4-of-5 3-pointers.
Texas A&M trailed 11-6 before going on a 10-0 run to take the lead for good. Joseph Jones contributed six of his 13 points during the early run.
Fordham scored first in the second half to cut the Aggie lead to nine, but Texas A&M responded with a 14-5 run, bolstered by two Carter 3-pointers, to push their lead to 18 points with 14 minutes remaining.
Green had 13 at halftime but he only scored one basket in the second half in the face of tougher defense by Carter.
Texas A&M's Acie Law took only one shot in the first half but finished the game with 11 points and a team-high seven assists.
Texas A&M ended the game on a 13-4 run to break the game open in the last four minutes.
Fordham's Bryant Dunston was limited with two fouls in the first half and only attempted one shot in eight minutes of play. He had 12 points and four rebounds in the second half.

AFP: "Are Brains Shrinking to Make Us Smarter?" Human brains are getting smaller, yet we're apparently getting smarter. Does that mean dinosaurs with walnut-sized brains could have actually been geniuses?
Joking aside—as there is no word on dinosaur intelligence in the Agence France-Presse report—researchers are trying to explain the remarkable decline in human brain size. Estimates show that in the past 30,000 years (roughly equivalent to the past 3,000 years in creationist models), human brains have become about ten percent smaller, dropping about a tennis ball's worth of total volume.
University of Missouri psychologist David Geary, one of the researchers, explained, "As complex societies emerged, the brain became smaller because people did not have to be as smart to stay alive." He believes the increased interaction and divisions of labor as human populations coalesced permitted those with smaller brains to survive. That said, scientists don't believe our larger-brained ancestors were, on the whole, any smarter.
"[E]ven though a wolf has a much larger brain than dogs, dogs are far more sophisticated, intelligent and flexible, so intelligence is not very well linked to brain size," noted Duke University anthropologist Brian Hare.
The same conclusion—that despite larger brains, our non-Neanderthal ancestors were no more intelligent, and perhaps less—strikes us as chronological snobbery.
We have frequently mentioned the fact that Neanderthal brains were larger than those of today's humans, yet Neanderthals are generally thought to have been less intelligent than "modern" humans. The same conclusion—that despite larger brains, our non-Neanderthal ancestors were no more intelligent, and perhaps less—strikes us as chronological snobbery. While evolutionary theory posits a steady progress of life, the creation perspective begins with a perfect Adam and Eve whose sin led to destructive consequences. From the pyramids to the Antikythera mechanism, a number of ancient artifacts reveal that our ancestors may well have been more intelligent than we are!

One of the very best places we've stayed in almost 11 years of traveling. Outstanding views in every direction. Very nice golf course and they have a bunch of brand new pickleball courts, too.
Nice pub and grill on site. Spacious layout of sites...large concrete pads with manicured grass in between. Wide streets. Best dog park of any RV park we've visited...and we don't even have a dog.
Excellent Verizon service. - FullTimeTexasMama
Aug 2015 - $50.00
We are full-timers. 50,000 miles throughout the entire country for 7 years. Tried this resort due to their free stay package. Stoneridge may very well be the best "Class A Only" (32' minimum length) motor home resort in the northern United States, and rivals any in the country (we believe we have tried most if not all of them, coast to coast, north to south). Located adjacent their championship golf course. Great, inexpensive on-site bar and grill (full service restaurant) with daily lunch and dinner specials. Fully equipped golf Pro shop. World class Pickle Ball courts. Beautiful grounds. Huge, flat concrete sites with paved, wide access roads. Outstanding dog park. Beautiful clubhouse. Free laundry machines! This Class A facility is more like a luxury hotel than an RV park. Incredible views in all directions. This park is a relatively unknown jewel in the northern Idaho panhandle (just north of Coeur d'Alene). There are even a few sites for sale. The locals were extremely friendly. Will return every year for the foreseeable future. Try it, you'll love it. - oneowner57
Aug 2015 - $36.00
We found the resort to have very spacious sites, all with very professionally manicured lawns. The views were spectacular in every direction. There was golf, pickleball, walking or biking trails, for exercise as well as a very tranquil setting for just relaxing. The people there were very friendly and accepting. There is an exceptional dog park. - FlyHotAir

Anyone interested in Korean traditional songs, or world music, or the opera star Hei-Kyung Hong, or great singing in general should listen to Hei-Kyung Hong's CD, "Korean Songs". I know many people of all ages, ethnicities and musical backgrounds who have been amazed by the beauty of this recording and by how such beautiful songs could be so little known in the West.
Why is the popularity of a video of someone singing Adele (who is British) "the latest sign of the rise of South Korean pop music" ???
@ T The music is still alien to the larger international audience and I am afraid English is the language lingua franca that makes it accessible to all! Its the vocal pitch and depth that appeals and clearly Korea's got talent.
Awesome ! My 13 year old daughter also has gone crazy with Korean pops ever since she saw Youtube videos with her friends and bugs me a lot to buy musics for her mp3 player. I wonder why. It seems like Koreans surely are talented at music. She's amazing.
I believe the following excerpt is incorrect:
"K-pop first broke its national boundaries with the success of Girls Generation in Japan two years ago."
K-pop broke its national boundaries in Asia well before two years ago (more like 10-15 years) and K-pop singers have performed and released albums in the U.S. as well prior to 2 years ago.
parkjimin.net & parkjiminmusic.com is for sale.
It's pathetic that the WSJ would source a rag like akp. Are interns writing for you now?
Lol, this article is off base. Girls' Generation breaking into Japan 2 years ago was K-pop breaking the S. Korean borders? Don't tell that to BoA(the female judge), she'd be upset seeing as she had Japanese releases in the early 2000s, and although it wasn't a huge success, she had released a US album in early 2009. We also have to forget Younha, in Japan in the mid-2000s. Houkiboshi was HUGE, partly due to Bleach, but mostly because she's incredible. (= She was known as the Oricon Comet for a reason, because of her quick success on the Oricon(Japanese equiv. to Billboard) charts. Seriously, referencing Pitchfork when it comes to K-pop? Research, please do it. In the internet age, it is very easy to do.
I really hope Park Ji-Min stays away from most of the current K-pop producers though, they'll water her down and make her sound like -every- other K-pop singer/group out there. It's become a rather bland market, if you like one artist, you basically have to like another on the grounds that they're so similar. I find that even Japanese Hello!Project artists are more differentiated than the current wave of K-pop. It's not bad so to speak, but it's become bland. We need Younha to settle her issues with Lion Media, find a new label and make a new Korean release and order shall be restored. (=
Oh, my word, when is this silly "next Susan Boyle" going to end?! There will be no "next Susan Boyle". Susan Boyle is unique in the music world. Her audition broke records, her albums have broken records, her voice is phenomenal. She has gone immeasurably away from being the winner of a talent competition to becoming a world class entertainer. When any of these so called "next Susan Boyle"s accomplish what she has in a scant three years, perhaps then this description would be apt. Certainly not before!
BoA might arguably be the first South Korean artist to find real success in Japan, but she was definitely performing j-pop, not k-pop. Same with DBSK. It has only been in recent years that that heavily-choreographed, "Korean"-branded electropop known as k-pop has found mainstream success overseas.
Also completely agree that allkpop is utter trash. Not to mention a breeding ground for racist drivel.
The video in the article was taken off Youtube by SBS, stupidly I think, but that was a while ago. WSJ, you should replace it with a working link.
Here's the SBS-approved post of her singing "Rolling In The Deep":

Having the same problem here. It is not Dropbox, it is not encryption, nor anything else suggested here. I am finding that my bluetooth Magic Trackpad goes insane in terms of latency. I would suggest you file a bug here: bugreport.apple.com with the details of your experiences for more detailed analysis.
The short of it, here, is that it appears that whenever there is very heavy file system activity the kernel_task shoots through the roof (~300-400% each time here) and then system latency likewise goes nuts. It appears to be an IO blocking issue. It also tends to be more likely to occur when you're pushing the upper thresholds of your memory limit.
Running on a Mac Pro 16 core system, 20GB RAM.
neversleepz Nov 5, 2011 6:32 PM
in response to ylluminate
I think ylluminate, you may be having a slightly different issue with the same symptoms. Eg your kernal_task cpu is caused by the IO blocking issue you describe where-as the OP has an issue with time-machine on encrypted backup disks.
I can state that I can reproduce the problem exactly as the OP describes.
I'm have a 17" MBP 8,3 w/ Lion 10.7.2 and have an external hard drive which I encrypted using Time Machine.
Its a 750GB disk with a majority partition of some 650GB devoted to time machine. The other partitions are one for Windows of < 50GB, and the remainder for a Linux partition + swap partition 50gb
Time machine goes to backup to an encrypted partition on a external usb drive. Its state says 'preparing backup' and stays their until I cancel.
At the same time, one virtual core of my i7 becomes pegged at 100% with system cpu activity. Activity monitor reports kernal_task using just over 100% of CPU. I can see its one core, using the menu-meters app.
The issue wont occur if I start the mac with the hard drive already connected, then kick off a TM backup. It will only occur if I plug in the disk after I've started it and then go to do so.
I think reporting to bugreport.apple.com is a fair idea though
ylluminate Nov 8, 2011 7:55 AM
in response to neversleepz
I think the real takeaway here is that Apple needs to add better kernel_taks logging output for us to ascertain issues. It's too much of a blackbox presently and even passing issues through gdb are extremely time consuming as there are too many moving parts generally to track an issue down without enormous time investments. When we get situations like this, it should offer a bit more verbosity in terms of what is going on so that we can isolate out what is actually happening and actually help Apple to resolve the issue. I think that's the bugreport that we should really file at this point.
rodcha Nov 8, 2011 10:44 AM
in response to rodcha
Well, not quite Dropbox either. Although is much better now, my Mac totally slows down when Time Machine is active. Apparently, it has also to do with having an external HDD encripted with Time Machine.
colin N Nov 9, 2011 4:13 AM
in response to rodcha
It is more likely hardware than software.
So many of us using different software, on the same hardware - MBA have the same problem. I get it when I use Safari, Mail, iPhoto, iMovie, while doing a Time Machine Backup to a non-encrypted Time Capsue.
But ONLY on battery. (i.e. everything runs smoothly on AC, have you guys tried pluging in to AC?)
It's an energy saving thing beacuse the MBA batteries cannot deliver enough power for the processor and fans at the same time, should the demand for processor clock increase.
neversleepz Nov 9, 2011 4:35 AM
in response to colin N
@colinN What happens when the backup finishes? The problem described here keeps the kernal_task on high CPU AFTER Time Machine has done its work (or is cancelled) and remains pegged high until you reboot. Doesnt matter what apps you run. Is that what you are experiencing, or just slow perf when on battery?
My MBP is pretty beefy so I dont get the slowness but I am unable to keep the laptop in my lap once this starts as it gets very very hot when the one of the cores is pegged at 100%.
When I reboot with my USB plugged in, and can start a time machine backup without issue, my CPU doesnt peg.
colin N Nov 9, 2011 4:45 AM
in response to neversleepz
OK. I'm sorry, the slowness kicks in DURING backup. I'm getting this slowness on my MBA (Lion, latest gen) whenever:
- I'm on battery
- I'm doing more than one thing at a time: Mail+Safari OR iTunes+Safari OR Preview+Pages or a combination of these, making it even more disastrous! (or sometimes, just one thing, like watching a Youtube Video on Safari)
(Both conditions above fufilled. No problems on AC: I can render a video till it hits 90 degrees celcius and I don't get any slowness!)
I have a MBP that is never slow doing things. It gets hot, but whether on battery or AC, it is responsive. Sadly, no SSD there unless I upgrade.
neversleepz Nov 9, 2011 5:05 AM
in response to colin N
Yeah thats ok. My first thought was that it was slow because of disk IO, but then realised the MBA has an SSD in there!
The one thing I've noticed coming from PC land is that the Mac hides its power saving decisions. On a PC I could see and set what items (wireless, SSD, etc) went into power save mode and what level to put them on. If I had any issue with performance I could temporarily tweak it up. Its been good so far on OS X not having to worry about power management settings nor have to power saving settings from Economy mode but I can appreciate when the Mac is making bad decisions about how much power to use it can be frustrating to resolve.
Without wanting to distract too much from the original point of the thread, perhaps you can try:
- re-nice'ing the processes of the apps you are running so they have more priority cpu/time over the kernel_task (a windows/linux trick. dont know how you'd go about it on mac outside of the cmd line)
- find out how Mac does its power saving modes and tell it to stay in AC power mode
- find a tool or utility that disables or pauses time machine once you go on battery mode (google or start a new thread)
Good luck
colin N Nov 9, 2011 6:01 AM
in response to neversleepz
Yeah. You can't tell it what to do, it tells you what to do, and it has a mind of it's own.
I could re-nice the tasks, but I think nothing will override kernel_task
Perhaps we could see how they control the power. There's a coupple of AppleIntel kexts
You can disable Time Machine Auto backups by sliding the switch to "OFF" in System Preferences. I've already done that for some time, so I only backup when I'm going for a toilet break or a drink. (i.e. not doing anything else for a while)

Same issue here on macbook air, after shutting down both Dropbox and Evernote and waiting a good 5 minutes, my CPU is back to normal. I don't know which one of the apps is faulty, most likely Dropbox but that solved the issue for me!
marc.mielke Feb 29, 2012 4:43 AM
in response to snow_bunny
same-same on my mbp8,3. i had'nt used the backup for a while and my kernel_task was always around 35-40%. after reading all that infos regarding kernel_task behaviour i found that nothing of all the suggested solutions worked for me.
as the only change since my kernel_task wen wild was switching off time machine i switched timemachine on again and used a different external drive as backup volume and did a backup.
my kernal_task behaves again... taking .5 to 1.5% max.
so for me the problem clearly was related to my backup situation.
marc.mielke Feb 29, 2012 4:47 AM

i forgot to mention: i'm using dropbox too, it's active and for my constellation it does not seem to be part of the problem.

a lot of ppl are citing dropbox as the major suspect, so I just switched it off. I tend to run pretty heavy realtime dsp processes that are frequently interrupted by this wildfire cpu bs
I should know within the next 24 hrs if killing dropbox solves anything.

I have a MBA and a connected 27" Cinema Display. The Activity Monitor shows the Kernel Task taking over 300% of CPU% at times. This seems to happen only after the MBA has been running for a while. From Googling this problem and looking at how my Mac behaves I think this is a problem due to CPU overheating: The CPU on an MBA works harder when an external display is connected. Likewise I would guess that other processor intensive tasks (encryption, video editing, and - Steve Jobs was right - Flash processing!) trigger this condition. Initially I solved like everyone else, by restarting the MBA. If I don't connect the external display the condition does not seem to occur, or at least the Kernel Task is not appropriating too many CPU cycles.
Having said this, when I reconnected the monitor and the problem arose again I followed Damitri's advice and clicked on the Inspect button in the Activity Monitor: the problem went away immediately (thanks Damitri). I suspect this resets a variable somewhere, and the Kernel Task runs out of control because of a bug in the OS that Apple hasn't fixed yet.

Lent has begun! Sign up today for a Lent devotional experience.
Here, 1. David professes the ardent affection he had to the word of God: "I have longed after thy precepts, not only loved them, and delighted in what I have already attained, but I have earnestly desired to know them more and do them better, and am still pressing forward towards perfection." Tastes of the sweetness of God's precepts will but set us a longing after a more intimate acquaintance with them. He appeals to God concerning this passionate desire after his precepts: "Behold, I have thus loved, thus longed; thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I am thus affected." 2. He prays for grace to enable him to answer this profession. "Thou hast wrought in me this languishing desire, put life into me, that I may prosecute it; quicken me in thy righteousness, in thy righteous ways, according to thy righteous promise." Where God has wrought to will he will work to do, and where he has wrought to desire he will satisfy the desire.
