The Hottie and the Nottie (2008)
Critic Consensus: The Hottie and the Nottie is a crass, predictable, and ineptly staged gross-out comedy that serves little purpose beyond existing as another monument to Paris Hilton's vanity.

Critic Reviews for The Hottie and the Nottie
All Critics (68) | Top Critics (26) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (64) | DVD (2)
A stark yet comforting reminder that cold, hard cash is no substitute for cold, hard talent. 'The Hottie and the Nottie' is an execrable Z-grade eugenics parable moonlighting as a sexy, disposable date movie.
It is excruciatingly, painfully, horribly, terribly awful.
Just about everything about it feels made for viewing at home, a fact underscored by the porn star monotone that is Hilton's 'acting' voice.
Hard time in the joint can change a person. Make them worse sometimes. And it would appear that this is Hilton's idea of revenge on a world she feels has done her wrong.
A person famous only because of the intense lack of basic decency with which she has pursued fame would obviously want to play the most beautiful conceivable human being.
Tabloid curiosity Paris Hilton may be the main draw, but it's doubtful that even her celebrity will do much to raise the prospects of this aggressively moronic comedy.
Audience Reviews for The Hottie and the Nottie
The Hottie And The Nottie
Quite how Paris Hilton convinced someone to put her in a movie, we don?t know. A less painful experience than watching the spoilt heiress attempt to act might involve painting your face with fish paste then apple-bobbing in a piranha tank. Is it hot? It is not.
Super Reviewer
Nowhere near as bad as expected. Paris, like every other movie I've ever seen her in, acts like she's posing in front of the mirror, but for a mindless comedy, this was not that bad at all and even quite sweet in a way.
Super Reviewer
[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Arial]Paris Hilton is certainly a polarizing figure. The hotel heiress and tabloid star inspires so much hatred from the public and yet others still fawn over her. She simultaneously inspires ire and interest, and filmmakers have been trying to give their movies a publicity boost by adding Hilton into the cast. It didn't work wonders for 2005's [I]House of Wax[/I], though audiences got to witness Hilton get nailed in an altogether different manner. Most of her starring ventures have been straight for DVD, except for this year's beauty-and-the-beast crude comedy, [I]The Hottie and the Nottie[/I]. It was released just in time for Valentine's Day (hooray!). According to the numbers-crunching website Box Office Mojo, [I]The Hottie and the Nottie[/I] played at 111 theaters for a mere three days before being yanked for DVD. It made a total of $27,696, averaging a pitiful $250 per screen. That averages out to 28 people seeing it per screen for its entire theatrical run.
Nate Cooper (Joel Moore, [I]Dodgebal[/I]l) is a 26-year-old dude who is just dumped by his latest near psychotic girlfriend (Kathryn Fiore). His latest dustup in love makes him reflect fondly to his first experience with the L-word. It was first grade and Christabelle moved into town. Nate moved to Maine after the first grade and never saw her again (seriously, does anyone ever remember the first grade with such clarity and deep feelings?). He decides to track down the adult Christabelle (Paris Hilton) who is working in Los Angeles. But before he can woo the "hottie" he has to get around the "nottie," said nottie being the hideous likeness of June Phigg (Christine Lakin, [I]Georgia Rule[/I], TV's [I]Step by Step[/I]). Christabelle and June have been friends since the first grade and Christabelle has sworn a vow of abstinence until she can find a guy for her friend.
Nate goes to great lengths to find a man willing to plumb the depths of "nottie-tude," including hypnotizing a man (Adam Kulbersh, the only funny actor in this mess) into associating the image of June with a space babe. Then along comes Johann (Johann Urb). He's a chiseled hunk who works as a dentist and insists on helping June's unorthodox chompers for free. He seems too good to be true and Nate is convinced that Johann is buttering up the "nottie" because he really has his eyes set on scoring with the "hottie." I think just typing that sentence made me want to hurt myself.
This movie is a garish spectacle celebrating the vanity of Paris Hilton. The central premise is that Hilton is the pinnacle of beauty and that no man could resist her. The script is filled with all sorts of flattering compliments on how Hilton is the perfect specimen of desire. Early on she's described as Nate's "first real vision of beauty" and the one "all other girls will have to measure up to." Men line up just to watch her pass by on her jogging route. She just doesn't turn heads she makes men lose their minds, pour drinks in their laps, and force their wives to slap them in the face. She even has an albino stalker. Johann asks Christabelle, "Have you ever done any modeling? You have great bone structure." The movie is a shallow 90-minute tribute to Hilton's superficial genetics. It's now time for a personal confession: I have never found Paris Hilton very attractive. I get that she's nubile and blonde and has a flat stomach and tons of money, plus she's displayed her bedroom flexibility to the public, but none of this cancels out her void of personality. She's no different from any other waif-like magazine model except the public cannot stop talking about her (this paragraph included).
The film tries to champion a misguided message but fails miserably. There's some lip service paid to inner beauty but Nate never sees the "nottie" as a "hottie" until she starts to physically transform and reconfigure her body. He remains shallow until the ugly girl meets the demands of others. No one seems to see her inner beauty until she focuses on the outer. Not only this, the film presents no rationale why Nate would start to fall for the "nottie." There is no groundwork, they just all of a sudden talk more, make a few jokes, and then it's straight to the longing looks and soft emo music. It makes no sense even for a cheap romantic comedy. Then there's the whole concept of Hilton as a moral character who advisees the less physically gifted of the species that the secret to love and happiness is to be yourself. Paris Hilton telling others to just be themselves? What kind of ridiculously hypocritical message is that? This woman's vaginal canal gets more traffic than the Holland Tunnel. She even plays a reformed slut that pressures her ugly friend to lose her virginity as fast as possible. But remember to be your self, kids.
The dialogue is full of clunkers. Christabelle tells Nate, "I think a life without orgasms is like a world without flowers." Um okay then. When she gets into the requisite third act fight with Nate, Christabelle says, "I am out of your league. You can't sing, you can't dance, you're a terrible athlete and a really crappy liar." Now what does that mean exactly? It's meant to be dramatic but it ends up with a different meaning. Christabelle is inferring she can sing, dance, is an athlete, and ? is a good liar? I would also like to know what the hell Nate does as far as a job, because it's never mentioned and yet he has the time and money to buy lavish gifts like $2000 spa treatments.
The comedy is excruciating. [I]The Hottie and the Nottie[/I] is physically nauseating to watch. I've written before that there's a difference between gross-out and just gross, and this movie doesn't seem to understand this. I nearly vomited after seeing an infected toenail land in some guy's mouth. Snot bubbles, varicose veins, gnarly teeth, extreme acne, and overgrown hair are not comedy without context. Presented alone, they compose a vile health department slide show. There's nothing funny in just being gross. Beyond that, the film is fairly lazy and obvious with its setups and punch lines. There may have been one moment that genuinely made me laugh and that was because it was unexpected. There aren't any memorable or even remotely clever comic set pieces. The script by Heidi Ferrer ([I]Princess[/I], [I]Dawson's Creek[/I]) seems to completely misjudge the rules of comedy and romance and credibility.
It is difficult to describe Hilton as an "actress" because her whole public persona she's built for herself something of an act. The film seems to cut around her limited acting skills because there's never a shot that lasts longer than two or three sentences. If director Tom Putnam is honest with himself he will some day release a fascinating commentary about the pains of directing Hilton, something I would liken to leading a horse to water.
But special mention must be made to a man that feels so audacious he must put the term "the" in front of his name. (The) Greg Wilson plays Nate's only friend in this reality and oh God is he terrible. He does the word "terrible" an injustice. He seems to be shouting every line completely overboard as if he were on some glib VH1 pop culture show where every line feels like it should be followed by a rim shot. His jokes are groan worthy and his spastic line delivery is all over the place. The man comes across as the most obnoxious actor in a film that freaking stars Paris Hilton. I wanted to punch him in the face every second I saw his smirking expression. Congratulations (The) Greg Wilson, because you were out-acted by (the) ditzy heiress who has been known to take phone calls while taking it from behind.
The child actor that plays young Nate, well, I don't know how to be kind about this ? but this freaking kid looks like a dwarf pretending to be a six-year-old kid. He has gigantic eyes and his melon resembles a bobble-head. He reminds me of the child in The Tin Drum who wished her would remain a child forever and never physically changes, even after the hormones set in. This kid just doesn't look right.
This is a vapid excuse for a movie and a waste of time. And yet, for my vast knowledge on the world of bad cinema, [I]The Hottie and the Nottie[/I] is awful, unfunny, stomach-churning, and morally repulsive but it is still a better movie than [I]Meet the Spartans[/I]. Hell, at least this flick even attempts a three-act story structure with something close to characters. I've heard complaints that [I]The Hottie and the Nottie[/I] would be viewed more fairly if Hilton was not the lead but I argue that Hilton and the film are inescapable. She served as an executive producer on the film and approved the material, so of course it's going to be flatter her and present numerous situations where Hilton can strut and pose in revealing outfits. She's less of a character than a loop of masturbatory fodder. But you could even get that for free elsewhere; Lord knows this woman isn't shy about her body. This is just a sad, icky film that serves one purpose: to stroke Hilton's vanity. But remember kids, just be your self.

This striking Rennaisance-style manor was actually built in 1901 on the site of an 18th-century house. Danesfield later became the base for RAF intelligence during the Second World War; where many important discoveries regarding Hitler's V weapons were made. In the 1970s it was used as the headquarters for Carnation Foods, but in 1991 was turned into a well-run country house hotel that's convenient for London.
In a nutshell
It's a traditional hotel with flashy touches, including a Michelin-starred restaurant run by Adam Simmonds, a stylish spa and a cocktail bar. The setting is wonderful: on a hill with sweeping

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- University of Illinois linebacker Martez Wilson has left the hospital where he had surgery for two stab wounds.
Illinois sports information director Kent Brown says the 19-year-old Wilson left the hospital in Urbana on Tuesday and is expected to recover from the injuries.
The sophomore from Chicago was hurt early Friday during a fight at a Champaign bar near the Illinois campus.
Brown says Wilson was helping friend and former teammate D'Angelo McCray, who transferred from Illinois to Eastern Illinois this year.
Police have said the stabbing happened after a group of men surrounded another man at the bar. No one has been arrested.
Illinois coach Ron Zook has said he was proud of Wilson for helping a friend in trouble.

This investigation is intended to provide clinical information about alignment using TruMatch™ and to compare the results to a conventional total knee replacement. TruMatch™ will be compared to a historical control study, which compares alignment results of computer aided surgery (CAS) and conventional surgical techniques.
The purpose of this investigation is to determine whether TruMatch™ alignment is non-inferior to alignment achieved with conventional instrumentation. This investigation will compare long leg alignment in total knee replacement achieved by the two types of procedures. Radiographic analysis will be performed by the same IRR as the historical control study.
The study is designed as a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, clinical investigation to determine whether TruMatch™ alignment is non-inferior to alignment achieved in a recently completed study (historical control) with conventional instrumentation.
Each enrolled Subject will undergo a total knee replacement using the TruMatch™ surgical technique. This investigation will require the Subject to be followed once postoperatively to collect radiographs. Follow-up will occur typically 2 to 12 weeks after surgery and when the Subject can achieve full leg extension (=/-5 degrees) and can tolerate weight-bearing.

@Elza Kala Pap, Since we don't have a page for this hybrid, you won't be able to add an article for it right now. We would first have to get the taxon from one of our content partners. If you create a page for it in the English Wikipedia, we should get it with our Wikipedia harvest. You could also upload your images through Wikimedia Commons.

@Michаel Frаnkis: Thanks for your feedback, Michael. I have created a ticket for this issue, but it will probably be a while before it can be addressed.
Michаel Frаnkis commented on "EOL Curators":
Can something be done to improve the search result suggestions? At the moment they are, and have been for a very long time, absolutely awful, turning up all the least probable results as the top suggestions, rather than the most probable which usually do not appear at all.
As an example, I had to type out as far as "chamaecyparis lawson" before the obvious Chamaecyparis lawsoniana appeared in the search suggestions; it did not appear even with "chamaecyparis lawso". The search suggestions were instead completely cluttered with highly improbable suggestions.
What would help is if accepted names were given higher hit status than non-accepted names, and generic names given higher hit status than species names, so e.g. a seach for 'pinus' will turn up various Pinus spp., higher than Spinus pinus.

@Anne Thessen: I hid that row in TraitBank. Not sure about the best way to get the correct info in, however. This looks like a FishBase record so maybe report to them?
Anne Thessen commented on "Taxon Page Cleaning Crew":
I think I see an incorrect data point in TraitBank. http://eol.org/pages/994802/data#data_point_26544190 Looks like it should be 5-6 cm, not 56 cm.

Kento Furui commented on "EOL Curators":
API hierarchy_entry returns error when the result json is too big. hierarchy_entry gives the entire list of descendants of a taxon. When this list of descendants is too large, it becomes error. Is there a way around?

Sunday, January 6th @ Garage Mahal (Time: 1 p.m. to 2:30/3:00 p.m.) in beautiful historic Downtown San Antonio, Florida (near St. Leo University). The Garage Mahal, a converted garage, serves as a jamming place and concert venue for many local musicians. It is owned by Rochelle and Norman Morris, who are graciously letting the Uke Club use the venue. The Garage Mahal is located inside the fenced gate of the purple house located across from the city park in San Antonio. Since this is not a restaurant, it might be wise to bring your own beverage and snack, if desired.
There will be plenty of chairs. Bring your uke, music stand (if you have one), and a singing voice. We can jam in unison so nobody feels self-conscious...This is for fun!
Also, please download music tabs (under "Files") for the specific date's jam and bring your "Jumpin' Jim's The Daily Ukulele Book" and the new "Leap Year Version" if you have it. The book can be purchased at any Sam Ash Music Store or online at Amazon.com.
Please Note: To defray the cost of using Garage Mahal and maintain our MeetUp website, a donation of $2 is suggested.

It's virtually impossible to spend any time in Costa Rica -- much less live here -- and not be awed by its natural wonders. Each day as I am awakened by a symphony of choral birds, and often as not, a motley crew of titi or whiteface monkeys carousing outside my window, I forget that humanity sometimes besmirches the natural order of things. Even here. Perhaps especially here.
Then some minor miracle of the universe unfolds and I am reminded. About the natural order of things, that is. Such was the case recently when I journeyed the 20 minutes from Manuel Antonio to the less touristic coastal enclave of Matapalo to witness the annual liberation of newborn endangered sea turtles. Although the release will continue until the end of the year, the small beach community chose mid December to host its annual Turtle Festival, celebrating the circle of life before a backdrop of live reggae, traditional (and not so traditional) street food, kite flying and surfing contests.
As the descending sun painted the sky in kaleidoscopic hues of orange and pink, hordes of voyeurs encircled the release site, awed to silence as the nascent creatures made their fatalistic journey from the shoreline back to the womb of the ocean's warm waters. A few got turned around, washed up by the tide, only to be redirected to their life spring. As a childless parent of all God's creatures, I was struck by the simplicity and beauty of this spectacle, yet saddened by the global statistics: marine turtles are declining at an alarming rate, with six of the seven species listed as Endangered or Critically Endangered. And while females can lay hundreds of eggs in one nesting season, relatively few juveniles survive to adulthood, falling prey to both human and natural predators. Since it takes decades before she reaches maturity and begins to breed, a minority live long enough to reproduce.
While Tortuguero National Park on Costa Rica's Caribbean side is more renowned as a turtle nesting habitat (tortuga means turtle in Spanish, after all), each year between June and December, the vulnerable marine creatures likewise return to Matapalo Beach to breed. Prior to the formation of the Matapalo Sea Turtle Conservation Project in the 1990s, however, too many succumbed to the vagaries of the elements.
Under the aegis of The ASVO (Association of Volunteers), a not-for-profit NGO that promotes environmental preservation throughout Costa Rica, the Sea Turtle Conservation Project is successfully helping to protect and propagate this endangered group by maintaining a hospitable and safe breeding environment, operating hatcheries, and observing and documenting species -- which include Green, Olive Ridley, Carey, Hawksbill and the occasional Leatherback. Further, and equally critically, they have waged an aggressive campaign towards community awareness, education and participation.
Volunteers are welcome and there's plenty to do throughout the year. For more information contact AVSO directly at www.asvocr.org or visit such sites as www.volunteerabroad.com.

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.65 lbs (0.29 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

Stuart, who graduated from the California College of the Arts in 2010 and recently contributed to a Wes Anderson-inspired art show called "Bad Dads," met with Ulmer at the Awaken Café in downtown Oakland, where Ulmer unveiled the layers of emotions and storylines behind Great Headless Blank. Together, they devised something that could aid the narrative of the music without overpowering it. Their focus was the idea of music as more than just a soundtrack to the listener's daily activities.

When I first spotted these artfully-made brooms at a California College of the Arts craft fair a few weeks ago, I fell in love. Who knew sweeping could look so good? (Snow White and her animal friends, that's who.) Quinn designed the bevel-handled, straw-bristled brooms at the Workshop Residence, working with Duane Penner, a third-generation broom maker from Dinuba, CA. They come in American walnut and cherry with black bristles, which looks especially witchy.

"I got super friendly with manila folders and binder clips," recalls Rachael, then using her maiden name of Yu. Next thing she knew, she was the proud 50 percent owner of a two-unit residential building at the very end of an infamous SoMa alleyway. (It's the site of an annual bacchanal that makes the Folsom Street Fair look like a church revival.) That was 2007, and in addition to her studious pursuit of real estate knowledge, the lifelong San Francisco resident was a second-year student of architecture at California College of the Arts.

Utility Patent For H2M Cap Technology Could Expand Uses
Thursday March 28th, 2013 - 10:31AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
H2M has received a utility patent for its "interactive" cap technology. United States Patent No. 8,376,175 joins the existing two U.S. design patents and numerous international patents already awarded to this type of cap technology.
While currently intended for use in the beverage category, the technology could work in other areas as well, including consumer goods.
H2M CEO Charles Musumeci said, "Our cap is not simply head and shoulders above the competition in the beverage category, we are seeing potential use in the pharmaceutical arena, the spirits category and even with certain types of consumer goods. With this utility patent, the door is open to change the way consumers around the world think of 'mixing' since our cap delivers an exact amount on demand."
H2M's cap, a two-piece unit designed to hold liquid or solid in an air-tight chamber, releases its contents when the user turns the top portion of the cap clockwise. Once the cap's content has dispersed, the bottom portion is turned counter-clockwise to remove, allowing access to the bottle's now freshly mixed ingredients. The cap's capacity is 13 grams of liquid or powder.
The H2M cap received its first design patent in 2010 on the upper section of the cap, or the releasing mechanism and the second design patent was issued later that same year for the lower section, or the housing chamber. This latest patent, for product utility, opens the door for expansion with the technology, the company said.

Measure the Cloud for Business Value
By George Watt, CA Technologies
Despite decades of talk about how IT needs to align to the business, in many organizations, IT and the business are not speaking the same language -- if they're speaking at all. In fact, nearly half (41%) of the business managers surveyed in a recent CA Technologies study said IT lacks communications skills.
This communication gap exists, in large part, because often we in IT don't focus on the right topics. We're likely to talk about service metrics: how long systems are up, how quickly systems that are down are brought back up, how many help desk calls are resolved, and that sort of thing. These metrics matter, but they're tactical to the business, perhaps aside from their use in preventing finger-pointing about lousy service. Read the full article.

Carter had been waiting on Tony for some time. He told her that he was away on an Alaskan trip, which we all know wasn't really true, but it got Carter to grow a sexy bush. Tony was telling her the girls up there had some snapper fuzz, and he was digging it. Carter wanted him to come home to something nice, so she did what she knew would put a smile on his face. Her bush was definitely hot, but she made sure there was plenty of pussy that popped out for easy access. Carter's tender lips looked great with a blond muff up top. Tony tugged and and teased it, as she quivered with pleasure. Carter swallowed his cock whole, as he continued to take full advantage of her pussy carpet. Tony buried his cock deep in the muff garden and then released his man fertilizer all over her bush to make it have a nice glow.

In a computer the cache memory caches the main memory using a concept called cache lines. Lets say that we increase the cache line size. The spatial locality improves right?
But i see no improvement on temporal locality because temporal locality of reference means the accessing a same memory location repeadetly.
Can we actually improve temporal locality of reference ? I feel that it cannot be done because how can one improve memory accesses to the same memory location.

To offset the loss of market exclusivity for its lead product, Lipitor, Pfizer has obtained a slew of generic drugs from Aurobindo Pharma for marketing in the U.S. and Europe. The medications will become a part of the firm's established products business unit, which last year had sales of $10 billion, about as much as Lipitor makes on its own.
Pfizer acquired rights to 39 generic solid oral-dose products for sale in the U.S.; 20 of those will be sold in Europe and 11 specifically in France. These medicines cover a range of therapeutic areas including cardiovascular disease and central nervous system disorders. Pfizer also gained 12 sterile injectable products in the U.S. and Europe. These are antibiotics including penicillins and cephalosporins.
The established products segment was launched in 2008 as a strategy to create smaller, more accountable business units. "Established products has the benefit of Pfizer's strong brand recognition, track record of proven efficacy and safety, broad and deep commercial infrastructure around the world, and a powerful portfolio," explains David Simmons, president and GM, established products business unit.
"Going forward, Pfizer plans to expand the established products business unit's product portfolio through additional activities with Aurobindo and other companies to provide our customers with a wider product offering."
These agreements with Aurobindo are an expansion of a five-product U.S. deal entered into in July 2008. Together, the two transactions bring 44 solid oral-dose products to Pfizer's diversified existing portfolio of established brands in the U.S.
One theory for explaining "success," put forward by Amy Chua Jed Rubenfeld, posits cultural traits such as a superiority complex, personal insecurity and impulse control. Union College professors Joshua Hart and Christopher Chabris counter that intelligence, conscientiousness, and economic advantage are the most likely elements of success, regardless of ethnicity. Do you think that Hart-Chabris make a better argument for achieving success than the Chua-Rubenfeld theory?

I have an apk (App1) that has a raw resource (res/raw/mytextfile.txt) and I would like to read that text file from another apk (App2). I define a content provider in App1 and I override the
openFile(Uri, String) method as follows:
Resources res = getContext().getResources();
return res.openRawResourceFd(R.raw.mytextfile).getParcelFileDescriptor();
App2 does the following to try to get access to mytextfile.txt:
ContentResolver cr = getApplicationContext().getContentResolver();
ParcelFileDescriptor fd = cr.openFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
InputStream is = new FileInputStream(fd.getFileDescriptor());
BufferedReader bis = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
However, when I read and write out the contents of the BufferedReader, I get way more than just the contents of mytextfile.txt. Clearly I'm doing something wrong so I'd appreciate it if somebody could point me in the right direction. Thanks,
I played with this some more and found that the file desriptor returned to App2 is pointing to the App1 apk file. I wrote out the contents of the BufferedReader to a file and did a binary comparison to App1.apk. The two files were identical.
