Bertha's Hippowdon was used when she battle Ash's Torterra. Hippowdon used Dig and then attacked Torterra with Iron Head from underground. When Torterra attempted to counter with Rock Climb Hippowdon intercepted the attack with another Iron Head. However Ash eventually noticed that the ground shook slightly whenever Hippowdon used Dig and when he saw the ground shake on Torterra's side, he warned the Continent Pokémon where the next Iron Head would come from allowing Torterra to avoid it. Torterra then inflicted serious damage with Leaf Storm. Hippowdon managed to endure the attack and used Dig again, this time causing the whole battlefield to shake instead of just a small part of it. Hippowdon then burst out of the ground, smashed Torterra with yet another Iron Head and then finished it with Fire Fang.

- Title
- Half-quantum vortex state in a spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate
- Author(s)
- Ramachandhran, B.; Opanchuk, Bogdan; Liu, Xia-Ji; Pu, Han; Drummond, Peter D.; Hu, Hui
- Abstract
- We theoretically investigate the condensate state and collective excitations of a two-component Bose gas in a two-dimensional harmonic trap subject to isotropic Rashba spin-orbit coupling. In the weakly interacting regime when the interspecies interaction is larger than the intraspecies interaction (g↑↓>g), we find that the condensate ground state has a half-quantum angular momentum vortex configuration with spatial rotational symmetry and skyrmion-type spin texture. Upon increasing the interatomic interaction beyond a threshold gc, the ground state starts to involve higher-order angular momentum components and thus breaks rotational symmetry. In the case of g↑↓
gc and g↑↓

According to the 2000/2001 Integrated Labour Force Survey, the population of Mainland Tanzania was 32.8 million people, of which 17.8 million people constituted the country's total labour force. Of these, 15.5 million (87.1 percent) were employed and 2.3 million (12.9 percent) were unemployed. Of the employed 14.6 million (94 percent) were fully employed while 950,427 (6 percent) were under-employed.
Youth are the most affected group; 17 percent of whom are unemployed as compared to 12.9 percent of the general unemployment rate in Tanzania. By 2004/2005, in Zanzibar, the youth unemployment rate was estimated at 20 percent.
A number of reasons have been given on the unemployment of fresh graduates. One of them is inability of the job market to absorb fresh graduates every year. It is estimated that every year 700,000 fresh graduates from various levels of education hit the job market, while the current job market can absorb only about 200,000 of these graduates.
Unemployment of young graduates is a global issue, which need to be discussed and put effective strategies to solve it. The question of unemployment has different perspectives in each country, related to the particular social and economic system of a country. And there is no any standard instrument and mechanisms for measuring the seriousness of this social problem.
However, learning from experience have shown that different social problems emerge such as inferiority complex, lack of responsibilities, hooliganisms, substance abuse and many others as unemployment reduces the quality of the young people in the society, as they cannot contribute any resources towards family or societal development.
The present society is materialistic therefore it doesn't value much about young people's intellectual contribution.
Young graduates always meet challenges in Tanzania after completing their academic courses in the university or college. But I have been wondering whether there are no employment opportunities or may be our graduates are unemployable? This article tries to analyse the root causes of this problem and thereafter propose some workable solutions.
One of the reasons is the mismatch between economic growth and the population of students' enrolment. According to the statistics from the Tanzania Commission for Universities' website, the annual enrolment of fresh graduates in Tanzania in both public and private universities and university colleges in the year 2006/07 amounts to 49,967 students, but the number of employment vacancies is still not enough to absorb all the graduates in the job market.
This indicates that our economy is still lagging behind, as it does not stimulate on maximizing opportunities for employment. However it should be understood that, when the population has grown, the whole economy (including the labour force, production, market) should also naturally grow, so the education resources and demands should match accordingly. The mismatch of this brings about the problem of unemployment to our young graduates.
Another reason is the inadequate preparations of the graduates to compete in the job market. The curriculum content might be loaded with relevant skills and knowledge which the graduates need to acquire, however, the teaching and learning processes and methods at the universities and colleges does not empower our young people to obtain relevant skills for the job market or be independent to start their own business.
There is a lot of theoretical learning without practical related to the real life settings. For example, the paradox is we have a lot of business management colleges and universities but there are very few graduates who are entrepreneurs.
It is because we focus much on the business theoretical framework rather than on the empirical studies of the real business life problems and building a problem solving mechanism for our students at the universities.
As a result most fresh graduates think that starting their own venture needs a lot of initial capital, so that you can become successful in business, but that is the misconception.
Effective business relies on best ideas and innovations. It does not require a learning curve after you have completed the university and then you start learning from the fellow entrepreneurs; but it needs experience curve, perseverance, and tactics on tackling the business problems hence catching the business opportunities.
In business its innovation and creativity that count. Thus we applaud our local Bongo fleva and movie artists, who seem to be effective entrepreneurs, as they are fast moving on developing their products and they are really innovative. They take advantage of the rapid growth of the music and film industries' markets which stimulate employment to young people. This is one of the indications that, good ideas when implemented can bring about success in life and it gives out the answer that employment needs not only to be formal employment but also self employment.
In addition you may see engineering graduates with good academic grades who do not know how to use certain engineering equipments because of the lack of facilities at the universities. There are young accountant graduates who have not seen the payment voucher sample or an invoice, but they know to discuss on it on the theoretical framework.
Another factor is the imbalance in growth of labour markets that lead to a concentration of jobs in particular sectors. The business sectors have rapidly emerged since 1990s, and therefore it opened up more opportunities for business graduates comparing to other courses such as sciences.
This calls for policy makers to ensure that there is balance in the growth of all sectors in order to open up opportunities for all graduates.
In addition, unemployment is also caused by the corporate and organization systems as during recruitment they list lots of needs and essential requirements for the young graduates in order to acquire employment. For example, they need a person with more than three to five years' experience, which delineates fresh graduates.
We commend the hard work done by universities and colleges. However, we recommend that practical training be an important part of the learning process on career development and this should be valued by employers.
There is a need of establishing collaboration links between learning institutions and future employers of the young graduates and this should be a binding mutual and beneficial relationship for this aspect to have effective implementation.
There is a need for policy intervention by the government with an inclusion of stakeholders in solving the young graduates' problems. The education and work concept should match, in order to foster the development of our country. It is important to encourage young graduates to be entrepreneurs in order to lessen the problem of unemployment.
But this needs the stakeholders, which are the government, the learning institutions and the employers to keep the foundation for the graduates to have the room to execute their talents and abilities, such that they can have a better life and living standards, thus they can contribute to the national development.
I talked to a number of Human Resources Managers in several public and private companies, on why most graduates complain that there are no employment opportunities. I came to realise that many companies have vacancies and they are desperate to fill them.
However, they commented that "too many people we interview are coming out with fairly good academic grades, but they do not posses useful skills for the jobs… including discipline for work…that is why you find out that many employment vacancies are frequently re-advertised. Most graduates are un-employable"
Recently, a certain company advertised a certain job opportunity, most applicants had good academic grades and a few of them were short listed and called for interview.
However, at the end of the interview, none of them qualified or met minimal standards of the requirements. Apart from the number of years of experience, they did not posses adequate working skills which expected. Unfortunately, this is what has been happening in many companies.
Such findings raise serious questions about the type and standard of education in our country. However, students should understand that most of what they study at university or college are theoretical oriented which aim at stimulating them to be pro- active to learn more and build up their skills.
They should work hard and ensure they obtain necessary skills during their studies and work placements for expanding their employment horizon in future as they can obtain people to recommend them in future.
The need to effectively learn some work skills such as mastering some basic computer programs such as MS (word, excel, power point etc), obtain language competency in both English and Swahili, negotiation skills, report writing skills , teamwork, lobbying and advocacy and other skills depending on the field of study.
They can do this through volunteering or doing internships in companies.
Since it is impossible to establish a balance between "supply" and "demand", on the market forces of unemployment and employment as the resources are scarce, and while market mechanisms are inadequate, the first thing to do is to recognise the extent and the magnitude of the problem of youth unemployment, and thereafter take some actions to ensure that the investment in these graduates is not wasted.

Review Details
Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump
- Product Review (submitted on December 30, 2009):
- This pump is great. Easy to use and clean. You can adjust the speed and suction yourself to get the perfect combination instead of relying on the manufacturer's idea of what will work for you. I wrap mine in a blanket to make it quieter and after a couple minutes I tune it out altogether. Its about as loud as the motor on my baby's swing and no louder than my friends Pump in Style. I use it 4 times a day. It took me about 4 days to get the settings right because I was trying to duplicate the experience my Avent manual pump. That was the wrong thing to do. I keep the cycle at about 75% and the suction at about 25% and I get 2 4oz bottles in about 15-20 minutes. Every time I use it I feel good about not spending the extra money for a Medela. Especially since there is no way for milk to back up into the tubing and motor the way the Medela website warns it can on their products. I cringe every time I see one of them for sale on Craigslist. Do your own research and then buy this system.

Erin Finn is being held on charges of vehicular homicide in connection with the deadly hit-and-run crash that closed a section of C-470 for more than six hours Thursday morning. The driver of the SUV was pronounced dead at the scene. He was identified as 51-year-old Dennis Dolce of Littleton.
Investigators say Finn was driving a white sedan when she skipped over the westbound lane of C-470 and slammed into a white SUV driving in the eastbound lane.
According to the affidavit, Finn told a motorist who stopped near the scene of the accident "I need to get out of here," and the man took Finn to a nearby 7-Eleven off Lincoln Avenue and Oswego Street.
The affidavit goes on to say while Finn was at the 7-Eleven, she made a call to a woman and asked the person to come pick her up.
A witness says Finn was dressed in a "black Halloween costume" and had "dull white" makeup on her face. The witness also says it appeared Finn had a red, bloody area on the left side of her forehead, but could not determine if it was real or part of the costume.
During the investigation early Thursday morning, had gone to the home where the vehicle was registered. Finn's father stated the vehicle belonged to his wife and daughter, and he did not know where they were at the time.
About an hour after the crash, police say the vehicle was reported stolen from the Finn's home.
According to the police report filed, Erin Finn was at a party the night before with friends named "Mike and Isaiah" who came back home with her. She claims she passed out at home and when she awoke, discovered that her purse, wallet and car were stolen.
Finn was arrested Thursday after Lone Tree detectives served a search warrant at her Lakewood home in the 1000 block of Ingalls Street.

Here's a look at some possible worst films of 2009, and why...
12 Rounds
John Cena may be a good wrestler, but when he tried his hand at acting, it resulted in The Marine. Now, he's teamed up with hackmaker Renny Harlin for a ripoff of the psycho-playing-games-with-the-hero schtick.
Roland Emmerick tries his hand at retelling the Mayan legend about the forthcoming end of the world. But, really, who cares? Especially after 10,000 B.C.
500 Days of Summer
What kind of name is that? How are there 500 days in summer? Not the best sell of what looks to be another cliched romantic comedy. That is, if Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel can pull it off.
The Accidental Husband, Bandslam, Dragonball: Evolution, The Maiden Heist, Tekken, They Came from Upstairs, Whiteout, and Wild Child
AKA, films that never had a chance, yet somehow got delayed more than I can count. We have: another PG-13 romantic comedy, a ripoff of High School Musical (even down to the casting of Vanessa Hudgens as the love interest), this year's Speed Racer, a tired heist comedy, a martial arts film with its roots in video games, a ripoff of E.T. (Ashley Tisdale plays Drew Barrymoore), a thriller that was supposed to have Reese Witherspoon, and Emma Robert's follow-up to Hotel for Dogs.
All About Steve and The Proposal
Skipping movies last year, Sandra Bullock returns with a double dose of PG-13 romantic comedies that no one will bother seeing.
Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel
Some name. This one's gonna have the Chipmunks' long-gestating rivals, the Chipettes. Oh, by the way, Miley Cyrus does the voice for one of them. Head for the hills!
Angels and Demons
Despite the critical lashing, The Da Vinci Code made a sh*tload of money enough to warrant a prequel. Yeah, right!
A film that should've gone straight to video, despite an ensemble cast (including Fred Ward, Jean Reno, Laurence Fishburne, Matt Dillon, and Milo Ventimiglia). The director's first name is Nimrod, by the way. 'Nuff said.
Cats & Dogs: Revenge of Kittie Galore
8 years ago was when the first one was released, and featured voice of a pre-Spider-Man Tobey Maguire. Who asked for seconds?
Dance Flick
The spoof movies keep coming and coming. This time, it's from the Wayans Bros., and now they're spoofing coming-of-age dance films like Save the Last Dance and Step Up. Who knows, it might be good. But I'm not holding out much hope, considering the epic fail of Little Man.
Just more proof that Hollywood ran out of ideas years ago. Now they're remaking a film that's already spawned countless imitators.
Fast & Furious
It might be tempting, seeing that this film follows Paul Walker instead of Lucas Black. And he's got Vin Diesel with him too, back in the role that made him a star. But since Justin Lin directed the last miserable installment, expect more of the same.
Good Lord, now they remade Never Back Down. Terrence Howard turned down to reprise his role as Rhodey for Iron Man II to do this? He should be ashamed of himself.
Final Destination: Death Trip 3D
I may reneg, because David R. Ellis made the more entertaining second installment. But after killing off Ali Larter's character, there doesn't seem to be much point to keep moving forward.
Fired Up and Miss March
Unless your name is Judd Apatow or Todd Phillips, you have no right to make an R-rated raunchfest. These films are an example.
Friday the 13th, Sorority Row, The Last House on the Left, The Stepfather
More horror remakes are coming our way. One is yet another retelling of a horror film legends, another has hot sorority chicks (and it's not called Black Christmas), another was a Wes Craven film a while back, and the next one has yet another Gossip Girl star trying his/her hand at thrillers.
An interesting concept. But when it's directed by the guy who brought us Kangaroo Jack and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, consider it a possible failure. Tracy Morgan needs to do R-rated fare, not family comedies!
G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra
Early word of mouth said that the trailer indicated how bad this film might be. And Stephen Sommers never made anything since the abomination that was Van Helsing. Look for this and 500 Days of Summer to be Joseph Gordon-Levitt's least successful year.
The Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Matthew McConaughey supposedly didn't learn from the mistakes of Fool's Gold. Now he's doing the romantic comedy schtick AGAIN. I can't wait to see this bomb.
Halloween 2
Wait, didn't Michael Myers literally die at the end of the last one? Or wasn't that rock to the head strong enough? Whatever the case may be, Rob Zombie didn't keep the promise to do sequels, and here we are. This should've gone to DVD after the last piece-of-sh*t installment.
Hannah Montana: The Movie and 17 Again
Looky here. Disney's herd of famous, no-talent idols of the J14 generation are back. This time, it's an adaptation of some piece-of-sh*t sitcom from the Disney Channel, and a rip-off of Big. By the way, check out YouTube and search in "Anti-Disney", and you'll see reasons why you shouldn't really waste your time with either film.
The Haunting in Connecticut
Lionsgate somehow hornswaggled Virginia Madsen with a cast of unknowns (including the guy who played The Flash in Smallville) to appear in their latest in their streak of dopey horror films.
He's Just Not That Into You
Fresh from the epic fail of License to Wed, Ken Kwapis plans to rip off Woody Allen's brand of romantic comedy with an ensemble cast (and it's not that bad, if you ask me).
Imagine That
Just when Norbit and Meet Dave wasn't enough, Eddie Murphy returns with another soon-to-be bomb.
Janky Promoters
Ice Cube and Mike Epps team up for the first time since 2002 to rekindle some of that Friday magic missing for all this time. Here, they're playing promoters looking to get Young Jeezy (played by Young Jeezy) to appear at a big show. Will it be funny? Or will Ice Cube have another First Sunday on his hands?
Jennifer's Body
It's got a good premise, and it has the team of Juno reuniting. But with the director of Aeon Flux behind it, perhaps the sight of Megan Fox almost nude won't be worth the bucks. How disgraceful.
The Last House on the Left
A classic from the Wes Craven library gets a facelift. This time, it has Monica Potter, returning to acting after five long years; and Sara Paxton, who probably should read scripts before taking these boneheaded projects.
Madea Goes to Jail
Much like anything High School Musical and Hannah Montana, Tyler Perry is a worldwide phenomenon that doesn't play to anyone else but a fanbase that consists of people who have no taste in real movies. Obviously, it'll be forgotten because it's protected by Christianity. But, in actuality, Perry's films are training videos for future atheists. I'm Christian, but the religion is being disgraced with weepy melodrama and heavy obviousness.
Next Day Air
Imagine if Pineapple Express was reimagined for the BET crowd.
New in Town
From the studio that unleashed My Best Friend's Girl comes the umpteenmillionth romantic comedy. Despite Renee Zellweggar's spirit, it isn't anything we've seen before.
New Moon
I suppose this is going to be the new Saw of our generation. More proof we need this "Disney Channel Original Movie for Emos" franchise out of our lives. Glowing vampires. That's all you need to know.
Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian
The first film, despite a modest box office, wasn't anything the crow about. I guess the producers and Shawn Levy thought differently.
This time, Beyonce tries a film that does not require her vocal cords. Too bad it's in a rip-off of Fatal Attraction. I thought this trend was over after swimfan.
Old Dogs
Imagine Role Models neutered down to Walt Disney levels.
A Perfect Getaway
Turistas set in Hawaii. That all you need to know?
The Pink Panther II
Really? After the critical failure of the first one, they made a second one? The good news? Kevin Kline was wise enough to turn down a chance to reprise his role of Inspector Dreyfuss. The bad? Now it's John Cleese. Once again, Peter Sellers is spinning in his grave.
It's basically a rehash of Jumper. This time, it's Chris Evans as Hayden Christensen, Dakota Fanning as Kristin Stewart, Camilla Belle as Rachel Bilson, and Djimon Hounsou as Samuel L. Jackson.
Race to Witch Mountain
Back in 2007, The Rock tried his hand at crappy Disney family comedies with The Game Plan. Now he's doing it again, this time in a remake of a Disney classic. Will it be decent, or will Andy Fickman blow it like he did before?
Saw VI
Nothing more needs to be said.
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li
The posters didn't do much justice, the casting seems to be taking a hit (Chris Klein should stick to comedies), and its origins come from a video game, meaning a hacky director - Andrezj Bartkowiak - must be given the material.
The Ugly Truth
Katherine Hiegl hasn't learned anything after the epic fail of 27 Dresses. Now she's paired up with Gerard Butler, who had an epic fail with P.S. I Love You. It's a match-made in hell.
The Uninvited
Stop me if you heard this before. A PG-13 thriller based on a Korean film that features Z-level actresses (Arielle Kebbell, with her wig from Grudge 2) mixing it up with those above their level (David Strathairn and Elizabeth Banks), and it's from the people who brought you The Ring and Disturbia.

Your presumptions seem to be suggesting that choosing next year's Worst Picture nominees will be like finding a needle in a haystack (I know it's like that every year), but I would think it wise if you would just PULL BACK ON THE COMPLAINTS AND STOP MAKING IRRELEVENT PRESUMPTIONS!!! In other words, save your complaints for when the films actually come out and you actually see them. You guys are so uppity that the entire internet would call you a disgrace (your counterparts have already admitted they're a disgrace).

PS: We're not jumping the gun and claiming these will all be Worst Picture contenders, we're just saying they all look to be movies of sub-par quality.

What's worse is that Speed Racer was directed by the Wachowski
Brothers. These guys were part of the legendary Matrix franchise. But,
then again, even good directors have their off days (evidence A: David
Bobkin for Fred Claus, and evidence B: Doug Liman for Jumper)
Provided that the Wayans can recover from Little Man.
Well, it's supposed to chronicle the events before Tokyo Drift.
But at least it has the formula that made the first two have a modicum
of charm. The other one was just to piss veiewers off (a
mustache-twirling villain, the lesson that anyone who doesn't do what
the main character does won't get laid - take that, Tyler Perry!).
I hope this does good. David R. Ellis directed the supremely
superior part two, even though he had to kill of Ali Larter's character.
For Friday the 13th, Marcus
Nispel is once again providing a backstory to Jason Voorhees. They're
claiming it's not to make him sympathetic, but if you've seen The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
and everything that followed, you've seen them all. Meanwhile, TLHOTL
is Monica Potter's return to the big screen, while Stepfather teams TV
phenoms Penn Badgley (Gossip Girl) and Dylan Walsh (Nip/Tuck).
As I said previously, in the last one, Michael Myers was killed
after Laurie Strode bashed his brains in. From what Rob Zombie says: "the
film will start directly after the end of his remake, but will be
presented through the eyes of Laurie Strode." And Myers will return.
So, I guess Zombie's going to do sequels after all. Didn't he see what
happened to John Carpenter's work?
If only it were so. Pre-teens just gobble that sh*t up like its
ecstasy. Miley Cyrus and Zac Efron are so popular right now, if they
got nominated, there would be an uprising of Club Libby Liu (if that's
even still open) customers. I say, "Bring 'em on!" Hell, even reviewer
Brian Orndorf was appalled at Raven-Symone and Andrew Caldwell's
performances in College Road Trip and College, and some YouTubers made videos on how Walt Disney's good name is being trashed by the dopey uprising of tweens.
You can say that again.
Yeah, why doesn't HeadRAZZ give forums for Perry's films. Heck,
those sitcoms are unwatchable, but somehow got popular. Well, the
reason is the fans that he has under his beck and call. And when we
call his films out on the pieces of sh*t they are, automatically, we're
racists. Unless Barack Obama is manipulated like Perry's fans, he'll
hopefully do whatever it takes to get real urban entertainment back.
I actually thought she did good in the last Austin Powers
film. Okay, it sucked, but she easily channelled the great
blaxploitation heorines to good effect. This new film is her first
non-singing role.
Dude, watch what you say! You don't want to give them any ideas.
Don't get your hopes up!
Well, there is a bit of Disturbia where the kids try to tell their parents that the neighbor is a psycho, but doesn't believe them.

There's also another movie called A Thousand Words, starring Eddie

Yeah, I'm sure when Walt Disney first opened his studio, he was thinking that one day, his company would be using his good name to produce creamy, rich, tar-like stool to full the "void" that was left behind by "Saved By The Bell." As for Tyler Perry, it's not about racism, it's just that I'm against him making the same movie over and over again with the exact same message to it. And is it just me, or does anyone else think it's retarded that he preaches about Catholicism while appearing on-screen in drag -- which is a big Catholic no-no...

NOTE: If I fillibuster, I'm sorry. Just a precaution before I get any flame mail.
Hey, I'd like to bring up something interesting. We're not the only ones who feel indifferent to what has happened to Walt Disney's name. If you go to Google and search "Anti-Disney Channel", you'll find results that lead to sites that discuss what has happened to the company that - I sh*t you not - I grew up on.
However, I can't believe they beat up the same subjects over and over again: Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens. Sure, they're not much to brag about, but they are topped by Brenda Song, someone I've brought up before, but decide to reiterate on this forum. I feel bad for whoever had to watch The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, because it's not the lousy jokes or the type of characters they have (the stereotyping is absurdly dated), but Song likes to perform like she's overdosed on Red Bull, caffeinated beverages, and the most agonizing tween music/TV show/etc. ever known to man. I'm not a misogonyst, but man I wish I could "Sherlock Holmes" my way into that show and just pummel her to a bloody pulp. Even worse, the DC believes this character is the bee's knees, as does every other poor excuse of a tween girl, because she even has her own blog on their website.
But nothing surprises me more than finding out that Tyler Perry's films preach nothing but Catholicism, while Perry crossdressing as Madea is a big no-no. That's unbelieveable. The man gets away with everything, it's crazy. And if Barack Obama endorses his films like Oprah does (for his sake, he better have more things to concern himself with), then I've all but lost hope in this country.

One more thing: The Uninvited just recieved two reviews, and they're positive. Of course, it may be for moot, because they think it's inferior to the Korean version.

There's something about next week's films that I'm concerned about in relation to you guys:
Are you sure you want to carry on with your attack on The Pink Panther 2? Attacking a film with high anticipation would mean putting your respect in danger. The LA Times is likely to post this after your awards show concludes (unless they get wind of your protest first). He's Just Not That Into You and Push don't have as much anticipation and I agree with you on some points of those films (He's Just Not That Into You looks like a romantic comedy with a awkward twist and Push looks like a combination of Star Wars, Jumper, and Heroes), but attacking the highlight of the week next week would be like putting your respect on the line (The Movie Preview Critic did just that and lost his respect). I'll give you till it comes out to think it over.
P.S. Let me know if you change your opinion after you actually see it (you usually can't get past your first impulse).
P.P.S. By the way Michaels, that statement wasn't an order, it was a suggestion.

Look at the dopey TV spots, and tell me The Pink Panther 2 is going to meet up with anticipation. Really, there was a time when Steve Martin was funny, but then he bit off more than he could chew; he hasn't had a movie since the last Pink Panther film. Remember how bad that film was? And high anticipation for a film like this will undoubtedly mean a potential Razzie forum.

He's Just Not That Into You... I've lost respect for Scarlet Johannson after growing one hell of an egotistical streak by selling a used tissue for charity. I mean, come on! And I think I could use a little less of Drew Barrymore (her explanation about one of her dates in the TV spots gave me douche chills).
Push... Chris Evans is five times better than Hayden Christensen, but Camilla Belle is bonafide eye candy, and Dakota Fanning isn't on my A-list.

Respect for the "Pink Panther 2"? WHO is respecting this movie? I'm sorry, but when I read your comments about movies and then watch a Movie Preview Critic video, between the two of you, I think the MPC knows a hell of a lot more about movies than you. It's not just how he talks about current movies, but how he talks about the history of movies, dating back all the way to the 20s and 30s and how they effected movies today, or how blockbusters of the 70s still effect the business now. Where is this anticipation for "PP2" coming from, fifth graders? What do you care if some bloggers lose "respect" for us? Weren't you the guy who joined this forum in the first place to discredit us? I've said it before and I'll say it again, Steve Martin WAS funny back in the 80s, but since then, all he does are remakes and sequels to remakes. And although they have a certain charm to them, they are not better than the originals. And if you're just writing this because you're afraid we might razz Martin, don't worry, chances are a worse movie will come along to steal his thunder and in the end, this movie will only get Worst Sequel, if anything.

What I meant was if you attack The Pink Panther 2, the news is bound to get out to the public (via the LA Times or another paper that watches you) and people are gonna lose respect for you (the same thing happened to the Movie Preview Critic). You guys have a complete disregard for the moviegoing community, no hope, no emotions, no moralities, no concept of emotion, no appreciation for cinematic achievement, and nothing to back up your consensus on some films. Besides, if it makes a lot of money and few other bad films come around (I know some I'm dreading), it'll probably get snubbed. The fact that Push looks like a combination of Star Wars, Jumper, and Heroes may make The Pink Panther 2 a little more worth seeing.
After your awards show, I will take a leave of absense and possibly leave you cautions and warnings of future films between that time and the time a true Razzie contender (something I'm almost certain will get nominated) comes around.
RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: I hardly think we'd be "risking" anything by RAZZing PINK PANTHER 2. I personally know of no one -- movie-goer OR movie critic -- who actually liked the first Steve Martin PANTHER film enough to hope for a sequel. And compared to Peter Sellers' classic portrayal of Clouseau, Martin's is pitifully limp and unimaginative. If you're sensing that I am going to choose PP2 as next week's Worst of the Weak, you're sensing correctly.
Also, given that MiguelAntilsu started posting on this Forum with regular attacks on us, our taste in films and our integrity, I find it ironic in the extreme that he has now decided to "defend" us against attacks much like the berry ones he used to make against us...
Watch for Summer Bombs.

A man charged with slapping a toddler on a Minneapolis-to-Atlanta flight is out of a job, his former employer said Sunday.
Joe Rickey Hundley, of Hayden, Idaho, is no longer an employee of AGC Aerospace and Defense, Composites Group, Daniel Keeney of DPK Public Relations confirmed Sunday night.
Al Haase, president and CEO of AGC, released a statement Sunday that didn't refer to the 60-year-old Hundley by name but called reports of an executive's behavior "offensive and disturbing" and said he "is no longer employed with the company."
Hundley was charged with assault last week after he was accused of slapping a 2-year-old boy and called him a racial slur during the Feb. 8 flight. His attorney has said he will plead not guilty.

The Highway Patrol says a driver is facing charges after his passenger jumped from a moving SUV in Kinston.
Troopers say 32-year-old Craig Penny faces failure to stay in lane and expired tags charges after he and his passenger got into an argument while driving down Sylvia Lane in Kinston, and the passenger jumped out of the SUV. Troopers say Penny then lost control of the Explorer and ran off the road into a ditch.
The passenger's name has not been released, but troopers say he was transported to Lenoir Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. Troopers say it's unclear if the passenger will face any charges.

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Authorities say a U.S. Army veteran who uses a wheelchair wielded a pistol to run off a man who broke into his home near Athens.
The Athens Banner-Herald reports that 53-year-old Mark Sikes was in bed at his home in western Clarke County around 1 p.m. Wednesday, when someone kicked in his front door.
Sikes said he reached into his night stand and grabbed his pistol. He said he then pointed the gun at the intruder and and told him he "better get the hell out."
Sikes said the young man "flew like a bat" and is lucky that he wasn't killed by the veteran.
Athens-Clarke County police and Oconee County sheriff's deputies looked for the suspect throughout the day Wednesday. Authorities continued to search on Thursday.
Associated Press Release
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) -- Police in Athens say a burglary suspect ran from a house he targeted when a wheelchair-bound U.S. Army veteran pulled a pistol on him.
The Athens Banner Herald reports 53-year-old Mark Sikes was in bed when a man kicked his front door in Wednesday afternoon.
Sikes told the newspaper he reached into his nightstand for his gun, pointed it at the intruder and told him to leave his property immediately. It is unclear if the attempted burglar was also carrying a weapon.
Police say they used evidence the suspect dropped on the scene to identify a person of interest in the incident. Authorities were searching for the man Thursday.

Cultivating CEM's Engineers of Tomorrow
As technological advancements continue to erase our societal borders and the world's population continues ballooning, our students are asked more and more to expand their world views and begin thinking on a global scale. In response to this development, Purdue's Division of Construction Engineering and Management (CEM) is revolutionizing its curriculum to prepare our students for careers in an increasingly global-minded and fast-changing world.
As part of this revolution, at Purdue you can map your own future. We are cutting across the established boundaries of Purdue's engineering and related disciplines, working to provide students with well-rounded multi-disciplinary educations that produce the best and most diverse construction engineers on the market.
Our classes exceed the walls of the lab and classroom. Every undergraduate must spend three terms in internships, gaining valuable in-the-field experiences in the area(s) of his/her concentration. Beyond these opportunities, CEM makes learning interactive for students with programs like EPICS, study abroad, cooperative education, and research experiences. The Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS) matches undergraduates with local community service organizations in order to define, design, build, test, deploy, and support projects for organizations in need. Other opportunities for global education are provided through our study abroad programs, where undergraduate and graduate students travel around the globe to take classes and gain new experiences. Students also gain real-work experiences in our co-op programs, and the Summer Undergraduate Research (SURF) program is open to undergraduates looking to spend their summers working alongside professors in labs and in the field.
To help you achieve your Construction Engineering and Management future, we provide you with experienced academic advisors to assist you in choosing a plan of study. We also assist you by providing scholarships opportunities and by helping you find the best financial assistance to achieve your engineering goals.

- "My name is Stan Shunpike, and I will be your conductor this eve."
- —Stanley Shunpike[src]
The Knight Bus conductor is the wizard who keeps the Knight Bus on time.[1]
The conductor's job includes greeting passengers and handling baggage. The conductor also offers drinks: thirteen Sickles buys a cup of hot chocolate, while fifteen gets a hot water bottle and a toothbrush in any colour. [2] The only known Knight Bus conductor is Stanley Shunpike. However, when Stan was sent to Azkaban in 1996, it is assumed that another person succeeded him.[3]
The conductor wears a purple uniform.
Known conductors
Behind the scenes
- It is unknown if Stan is the only conductor working at the Knight Bus, as he says "I will be your conductor this eve". However, it is unlikely as the bus is available at every moment.

Leading you to an educated decision.
UXGA is an abbreviation for Ultra eXtended Graphics Array referring to a standard monitor resolution of 1600 × 1200 pixels, which is exactly quadruple the default resolution of SVGA (800 × 600). Dell Computer refers to the same resolution of 1,920,000 pixels as UGA. It is generally considered to be the next step above SXGA (1280 × 960 or 1280 × 1024), but some resolutions (such as SXGA 1400 × 1050) fit in between the two.

Maybe you've agreed to an impromptu night out with the girls or maybe you're late to class and only have a few minutes to do your makeup - we've all been in these high-stress, little-time situations. However, there are a few makeup ideas you can master so you always look stunning (even if you are a little late).
The goal is to make your face look brighter and more awake, so here are the makeup ideas you need to prioritize.
Glowing skin
When you don't have time for the whole moisturizer-face primer-foundation routine, stick to the basics - a little pressed powder and bronzer may do it for some, while others can dab a little Vaseline on their cheeks for a dewy look.
Bronzer seems like it's made to make you look tan, but this is only partially true. Applying just enough bronzer to your cheeks, forehead and the bridge of your nose can help you look healthy and wide awake in a way that other cosmetics cannot. If you have time, blush can give you a healthy flush, too.
Luscious lips
It doesn't take much to have lips like a goddess, but it requires just a little bit more than your everyday lip balm. For a quick, easy and natural look, apply a lipstick that is the same color as your natural lip color and then follow up with a clear lip gloss. You will look done up, but not like you tried too hard.
That said, gliding on the perfect red lipstick is kind of like an instant pick-me-up for your face. In fact, Taylor Swift, one of the most gorgeous fans of the red lips trend, told Glamour Magazine that she carries a stick of red with her at all times for an insta-glam look.
Bright eyes
You might not have time to apply eye primer for a perfectly smooth eyeshadow finish, so it might be better to skip this cosmetic. Unless your lashes are extremely light or thin, you can skip eyeliner and mascara altogether. Simply curl your lashes with an eyelash curler and apply some light, shimmery eyeshadow just to the inner corners of your eyes to make them look wider and more awake. This will also combat any dark circles and signs of tiredness. A white or light, pearly color eyeliner also does a great job at this - just swipe some under your bottom lash line for instantly bright eyes.

=== Calculating Release Statistics ===
Revision as of 22:31, 25 July 2013
This is a general checklist when a version of Joomla! is released. Keep in mind that a major release differs a lot from a Minor Release or even a Maintenance Release. The checklist here describes the steps that need to be done for (at least) Maintenance Release and Minor Release.
Release checklist
It depends on the Development Cycle when the checklist is triggered. A release can be done during every stage of the Development Cycle, it does not matter if you release a beta or a stable version, this is a general checklist that can be used when releasing a new version of Joomla! The checklist starts when it's decided to release a version:
Preparation phase

Calculating Release Statistics
- Extract *all* issues from Tracker into spreadsheet. Make note of the date of the last release and the number of active issues at the time of the last release.
- Set a filter on the "Closed Date" column to be "after" "the day of the last release".
- Calculate "Closed" count by aggregating status values for Closed, Duplicate Report, Known Issue, Not a bug, Not Joomla! Core, Unable to Confirm.
- Calculate "Fixed in SVN" count by aggregating status values for Open and Information Required. (Note: this value is presented two times in the report.)
- Set a filter on the "Closed Date" column to be blanks:
- Calculate "Open" count by aggregating status values for "Open" and "Information Required."
- Calculate "Confirmed" count by aggregating status values for "Confirmed" and "In Progress."
- Calculate "Pending" count by aggregating status values for "Pending" and "Ready to Commit."
- Calculate the "New Active Issues" by aggregating the "Open", "Confirmed" and "Pending" counts.
- Calculate the "net increase/decrease" by subtracting the "Last Release Active Issues" from the "New Active Issues."
- Count the "number of commits" by reviewing the CHANGELOG.php file and counting the documented commits.
Alternative Method for Stats
- Fixed in SVN: Create query with close date > date of prior release and status = Fixed in SVN.
- Commits: Count from CHANGELOG.php as indicated above.
- New Reports: Run query with all status codes and open date > date of prior release.
- Increase / decrease in active issues: See note below
- Closed: Run query with closed date > date of prior release and status code one of Closed, Duplicate Report, Known Issue, Not a bug, Not Joomla! Core, Unable to Confirm.
- Open at time of release: query of all issues with status = Open or Information Required
- Confirmed at time of release: query of all issues with status = Confirmed or In Progress
- Pending at time of release: query of all issues with status = Pending or Ready to Commit
Increase/Decrease in Active Issues
- Total active issues now = Open at time of release + Confirmed at time of release + Pending at time of release
- This number minus the total active as of prior release is the net increase or decrease
As a check, make sure the following formula works:
- Prior release total active issues + New Reports - (Closed + Fixed in SVN) should equal the Total Active Issues now.
